Passing through the station

The eldest brother of the Wei family is a scum, and men of the Wei family cannot marry—this cognition, before today, was only a consensus among the powerful circles; after today, the entire Wei family has spread throughout Xijing.

And with the increasing development of the postal system, the news that Wei Jia Dalang abused his wife and nearly killed him will soon spread throughout Dazhou.

For a while, the Wei family boss, the newly released Captain Wei, became a hot topic.

To say that regardless of the powerful class or the civilian class, there are too many things about husband and wife disharmony, but it is still very rare that the wife is almost beaten to death.This kind of "family ugliness" has made a lot of noise, which is unprecedented.

The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty have always been monogamous and multiple concubines, and there are even strict regulations on the number of concubines.However, most of the dignitaries in the current dynasty, such as King Pingxi and the prince, had only one wife in their family, and there were no concubines, maidservants, housekeepers, and the like.Under the influence of above and below, in the back houses of many powerful families, except for couples who have been married for many years, there are very few powerful people who have brought many concubines.Those who carry the door to the house one by one are mostly those merchants, and in the eyes of the rich and powerful, they are not popular.

There are so many concubines in the back house like Wei Dalang, this is the only one in the whole Xijing city.To put it bluntly, according to the laws of the Great Zhou, the number of these concubines seriously exceeded the standard.Wei Dalang is a bastard, and he never thought of bringing someone in seriously.To put it bluntly, the status of these concubines is actually not much different from that of a "slave".

What happened was not the "concubine", but the wife.

It is not too rare for one or two maidservants to "die of illness" in a deep house or even a concubine's son or daughter.But those are not wives.Even in terms of social status and moral bottom line, the requirements for wives are much higher than those for husbands; but in the laws of Dazhou, the status of both husband and wife is equal.

Abuse of a wife who almost killed her is completely poking the hearts of the real wives in the powerful circle!It's unreasonable for a dignified housewife to be treated like a servant who is willing to beat and scold her!

For this reason, the elders in Xijing City have had a hard time recently.There are not a few people like King Pingxi who were kicked out by their wives "calmly and calmly".

Everyone else is like this, and the life of the person involved is even more difficult.

Muqiu's ancestral hall is very cold.The floor is paved with clear water bricks, with a small futon on it.Wei Dalang knelt on it, only felt the cold air crawling up from his knees, and his whole heart was chilled.

The general's knees are tight.The Wei family relied on martial arts for a living. He remembered that even if he made a mistake, he had never been punished to kneel since he was a child.But now he has been kneeling for three full days.In the past three days, except for two bowls of rice soup in the morning and evening, he didn't even get any food.

When the old captain Wei opened the door and came in, what he saw was his son who had lost weight.

Wei Dalang turned his head and saw that he was kneeling on the ground and muffled, "Father."

In just a few days, the old captain Wei seemed to have aged several years, and even his back, which was always straight, was a little bent.

An old slave moved a stool for him. He sat down and waved to the old slave. Seeing that the old slave retreated quietly and closed the door, he turned to his eldest son and said, "You are so old! , I can't beat well, and I can't listen to scolding, it's not like when I was young."

Wei Dalang's heart skipped a beat, his intuition was bad: "Father! I know I'm wrong, I really know I'm wrong!" He hasn't opened his mouth in the past three days. It was as uncomfortable as someone holding sand and grinding it, and I couldn't help coughing.

He just couldn't understand, he just gave Huang two fists, how did things become like this?

Huang's appearance is not beautiful, but she is gentle and dignified.After they got married, they did have a period of affectionate time.But as time went by, he felt bored.Especially she was always in charge of him, forbidding this, not allowing that.Now that he is a school lieutenant, he can be regarded as a big man who has established a family. How can he be treated like a grandson by the Huang family?

In the past, not to mention that Wei Dalang coughed like this, but he was a little listless, the old Captain Wei would have to ask for warmth; but now he seems to have not heard, just staring blankly at the rows of memorial tablets under the candlelight.

After a long time, he sighed and said, "Father is getting old. Dalang, you don't have to kneel anymore, go back to your room and pack your things, and go back to the village with your father."

When Wei Dalang heard this, he was stunned: "Go back to Zhuangzi?" The Wei family's heel was not deep, and they didn't own any land in the outskirts of Xijing. On the contrary, they were in their hometown. Over the years, there were hundreds of hectares of fertile land.But where is that?It cannot be compared with the prosperity of Xijing at all!

"Yes, back to Zhuangzi." After the old captain Wei finished speaking, he got up and left the ancestral hall, as if he didn't hear the sound of Wei Dalang getting up and falling, and it seemed that he didn't hear the inquiries about the captain's official position.

Now that he looks like this, does Wei Dalang still want to be his captain?In this family, they will be squeezed out to the point of being unable to survive!

The Wei family has been passed down for several generations, and it is not only Wei Dalang who can marry and have children.Originally, he had given the position of lieutenant to the eldest son of the concubine, and he had been under a lot of pressure. Now that this incident happened, would it be possible for the rest of the Wei family to eat nothing?

Especially now that the men of the Wei family are looked down upon when they go out, and they get a lot of food behind closed doors.The girls of the Wei family who have not left the cabinet have little influence; but the boys who are not married are miserable. Don’t worry about those who have not discussed marriage. in law.Many people planned to teach Wei Dalang a lesson.

For this reason, the old Wei Xiaowei didn't even become the patriarch.Going back to Zhuangzi for the elderly is already the most honorable way out for himself and his son.

No one expected that this matter would be handled so neatly.

Huang didn't show up from the beginning to the end, and got her compensation.

"Three thousand, six hundred and fifty eight taels of silver. I asked Wei's family to wipe out the zeros. The total is three thousand and seven hundred taels." Princess Pingxi spread out a passbook, showed Huang the amount on it, and helped her put it away by the bedside. In the makeup box, "Your dowry is also being arranged, and it will be brought over in the next two days."

Mrs. Huang was stunned. Was the change not done right? "It's good if you can get the dowry back, other concubines don't dare to accept it."

Princess Pingxi frowned: "Don't talk. How can a warrior's fist be easy to bear?" The girl next to her hurried over and helped Huang to lie down, "My Erlang asked for the money back for you. Since the Wei family gave it, you can take it. I don’t like what I said, how much is your dowry worth? Now that you have hurt your internal organs, you will not be able to eat a lot of things in the future, and you need to take good care of your bones. Take this money Are you still guilty?"

Huang was born in a scholarly family, but his father died early.She and her mother have been living in her uncle's house, and there is not much dowry at all.And when the two of them, mother and daughter, were under the eaves, there was always a lot of inconvenience.She and her mother didn't know the news outside the inner house, and the marriage with Wei Dalang was almost half-deceived.It's just that when her mother was still there, she endured it and muddled through.Now that her mother has also passed away, she didn't think much about it. After such a thing happened, she dared to stab Princess Pingxi directly.

"What the concubine said is true." Huang's face was pale, but now she smiled a little, "I will have to live and recuperate in the future, so I don't feel bad about holding this money." She knew the doctor's diagnosis, just The medicines used these days cost a lot of money. If she didn't take this money, she wouldn't even be able to pay back the medical expenses advanced by the palace.She is not related to her, not even familiar with her. She is not that thick-skinned, and asked Pingxi Palace to pay her the money.

Princess Pingxi finally showed a smile, and patted Huang's hand through the quilt: "You take good care of your illness and relax." She stood up and prepared to leave, but she didn't want a golden streamer to rush in at the door, a big fat dog He jumped directly onto her lap, bluffing everyone around him.

"Wow!" Fat Ball spun around on Princess Pingxi's lap, showing off its new equipment in all directions.

Princess Pingxi looked at the fat ball carrying a backpack, and rubbed it hard: "Erlang made you a new backpack? It's so beautiful!"

Huang's mouth twitched.Such a big dog, won't the princess hold it heavy?

Fat Ball turned his head and nimbly bit open a pocket: "Wow!"

Princess Pingxi originally thought it contained food or water, but it turned out to be a booklet.

When Fat Ball saw that the booklet was in the hands of the target person, he jumped off the ground immediately, and disappeared after sprinting out.Ergou said that after completing the task, give it something delicious to eat, and run away quickly, or the big fat brother will snatch it all away!

It is said that the booklet is not actually bound, but the pages are clamped with a clip.There is no cover, and the first page is densely packed with small print.Princess Pingxi glanced at it, smiled and sat down again, and handed the brochure to Huang: "It's not for me."

Huang took a look suspiciously: "Girls' school?"

Fat Ball had already rushed to the small kitchen, and squeezed in between his brothers, sisters, parents, wagging his tail and pounced on Ruan Bai's legs, who had their backs to it: "Wow!"

Ruan Bai was almost thrown onto the chopping board by it.It's not that he can't bear the weight of a dog, but that the short legs hit his knees, almost kneeling!

Fatty rushed over and slapped his brother lightly: "Wow!" Everyone is waiting to eat, so don't make trouble.

The slap of the big dog like a calf caused Fat Ball to roll and crash into the nearby straw pile, but he was not injured, and soon rushed out with a whole body of straw, grinning for revenge.

"Crack." The sound of the porcelain plate being placed on the dog dinner table made all the fat people get ready to go.

There are roughly the same number of melons in the five porcelain plates, with a little more fat ones and a little less fat balls.

Ruan Bai clapped his hands, "Let's eat." Ye Dong sent two carts of melons from Zhong'an. The melons are crispy and not very sweet, so they can be eaten by dogs.

The author has something to say: Fat Ball (⊙ω⊙): The nest is also the breadwinner of the family!

Fat Ball (⊙ω⊙): Because Wo completed the task excellently, the whole family had a sweet bite!

Fat Ball (⊙︿⊙): But why does the nest eat the least!

Fatty ￣△￣: Dad, my little brother is in the second grade, so take care of it.

The third child (≧?≦)? : You should be the big brother and discipline your younger brother well.

Fatty: (._°☆╲(-–)

Fat Ball: /(ㄒoㄒ)/～～
