Seeing that the east wind returns, the struggle for teaching is the most complicated

With the protection of my mother-in-law, it is the time to sit back and enjoy the fruits of my life. Wouldn't it be better than my hard-working life that I worked hard to encourage and support. "

Cao Jinxiu said: "Elder sister is insulting me. My elder sister didn't hear what my second elder brother said about the days I lived in He's house, so I should have seen it myself. My aunt is not even as good as a big girl in my elder sister's family."

Cao Jinyun looked at Cao Jinxiu's clothes and said with a smile, "Your sister is making fun of me."

Cao Jinxiu sneered, "Wherever the eyes can see, I will naturally not treat me badly." The Luo family's tea is no worse than the He family's daily use. It is also very heavy.

Cao Jinyun glanced at the fine porcelain cup painted with gold: "This is true. In this life, people don't live all their face, after all, they have to have face. Let me tell you, sister, don't take it to heart." Lowered his voice, " No matter how powerful a woman is, it is only with a son that she can have a long-term future. Although this is an old saying, it is true. It is said that the grandma on my head must keep Brother Yu by her side no matter what. Worried——after raising Yu'er, she will have someone to take care of herself! The younger sister is inconvenient for a while, why don't the other concubine's children be raised under her name? The concubine agrees to you. You Don't be willful, it's wasted."

Cao Jinxiu's face became even more serious: "How can there be any other concubine? Our wife is jealous, and she controls her cousin so much that she dare not even see me, let alone other people. Both brothers are born to their wives. Yes, can she adopt one to me?"

Cao Jinyun hurriedly said: "I don't know, I was wrong." Then he sighed, "I really hurt my sister by saying that."

Cao Jinxiu's eyes glistened, "Isn't that what it's like to be a concubine? I don't expect anything."

Cao Jinyun asked anxiously: "Why does my sister say that? Although my aunt is nice, I have gone to see it a few times, and I can see that it is getting worse every day. What will my sister do in the future? Don't you plan earlier?"

Cao Jinxiu said angrily: "What plans can I have? At most, I will be eaten by that surname Zong. I just don't accept - who has such a jealous woman? She is still defending her up and down. Her My son is also really weird, he cries when he sees me, and he just wants to do this, and I still expect Shun Shun Dang to live until he dies?"

Cao Jinyun pondered for a while, and said: "This is amazing. I have met that young master of the He family twice. Although my appearance is far from that of my sister, I still have four or five points of similarity in outline, but he is lively when he sees me. , and answered everything he talked to. Why does he cry when he sees his sister?"

Cao Jinxiu's face was reddish. Of course she couldn't say that she had harmed the child when he was still in the womb. Just as she was about to hesitate, Cao Jinyun suddenly said, "Don't tell me there is some unsolved relationship in the previous life? My sister doesn't know. There is a Qingxin Nunnery near us. The presiding master Cihang is the best to talk about these causes and effects. In the previous life, there were people who owed money, or owed love, and it would be best to meet each other. The wife of the Xicheng Jade Han family just When I entered the door, I felt like my sister-in-law's enemy for no reason. Master Cihang said it was an old enemy from another life. In the previous two lives, they were the sisters-in-law of the whole family, and my sister-in-law was the head of the house. Mrs. Han often told her mother-in-law about the beginning and end of this sister-in-law. The sister-in-law couldn't bear to be wronged and committed suicide, so she hated seeing Mrs. Han in this life. Master Cihang used supernatural powers to untie them, and now the sister-in-law and sister-in-law are as harmonious as sisters."

Cao Jinxiu's heart skipped a beat.Brother Qi felt uncomfortable seeing her, and this matter has been on Mother He's heart, reminding Mother He that this grandson was almost impossible to be born.Although she didn't say anything, Cao Jinxiu knew that Mother He always had a knot in her heart.If I could get rid of this injustice, wouldn't my life be better?What's more, He Mingqi is He Hongwen's eldest son, as long as he grows up, he will always take care of him in the future... She raised her head and said, "What sister said is true? Why is Master Cihang willing to help others?"

Cao Jinyun said: "She is merciful, and she doesn't want to give anything, but she only cares for people with predestined relationship. It's late today, and I will accompany my sister to her nunnery to listen to her talk. If there is a predestined relationship, I will help my sister around Isn't that bad luck?"

Cao Jinxiu was happy in her heart, but she still didn't show it on her face: "It's going to be a lot of trouble for my sister."

Although she said this, she still couldn't believe it in her heart. When she got home, she told He's mother that the monks in Qingxin Nunnery were very good, and asked He's mother to send someone to find out.Grandma Yun came back after a day away, but her eyebrows were beaming. Seeing Mother He, she said, "This old aunt is a little bit interesting. What she said was to persuade people to be kind, and she told a lot of ancient records, all of which are understandable. .”

He's mother has been eating vegetarian food and reciting Buddha these years, and she also likes to listen to monks' teachings, so she asked, "What did she say?"

Mother Yun said: "Some words are terrible, and the old slave also felt hairy when he heard them. What she said today is about wives and concubines. She said that if she really has no children, it's fine to take concubines; if it's just for the patriarch Hu Tianhu Not to mention delaying the girl's youth, it also ruins people's character—a woman who is not vicious becomes vicious in order to compete for favor, and a woman who is not seductive has no choice but to learn to be seductive, which is very hurtful to the Yin Zhi."

After hearing this, He's mother recited a Buddhist saying: "That's true."

Mother Yun said: "She also said that these rich and noble families now have maids and concubines in every family, so the world's morals and people's hearts are getting worse. Many officials and family members in the gates of the mansions were originally young ladies from respectable families. , as the mistress, she disregarded all conscience and compassion for the word concubine and concubine. Concubine's methods of competing for favor also emerged endlessly, and concubine's methods against concubine's and concubine's children became more and more cruel, regardless of retribution, but this There should be retribution. She said that there was a salt merchant's wife in Yangzhou. Because her husband was greedy for flowers, she became ruthless. Every maidservant and concubine who entered the door would be whipped twenty whips first, even if there was no fault. Usually, concubines are favored, and she Then find out the fault, or whip, or go hungry, or even use a soldering iron. Some of the maids and concubines were tortured to death, and some could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide. After searching for something, she brought her son to court, beat and beat, and ironed her son. All the methods she used to torture people every day were used on her son. Later, someone woke her up. She was afraid of her karma, she hurriedly bowed to the Buddha and repented, and sympathized with the family of the dead concubine, regretted everything, and her son was released when he was still alive. Count the number of whips he received , as many as his mother beat those concubines, it can be seen that it is really retribution."

He Mu heard the Buddha chanting repeatedly: "Amitabha, sin! Although a concubine is a human being, she is really vicious, but the retribution is too terrible."

Mother Yun said: "There is something even more terrifying. It is said that there was an official in Sichuan who had a concubine in his office and loved him very much. His first wife was originally sick, and the concubine felt uneasy when she had a son. His position, pretending to be courteous, mixed arsenic into the porridge and fed it to the wife and son-in-law."

Mother He yelled: "There is such a vicious person! That son-in-law is always her husband's flesh and blood, how can he do it?"

Mother Yun said: "Isn't it? As a result, the son-in-law didn't eat it because he was too playful, and the main room noticed after eating a few mouthfuls, so he endured the pain and asked someone to bring the concubine's son, and forced two mouthfuls of porridge down."

Mother He was stunned in shock: "The bastard..."

Nanny Yun nodded: "The concubine and concubine are all dead. The concubine coaxed her husband somehow, but the man was also in a daze and never pursued it. Later, the concubine gave birth to another daughter, and the child was ignorant, so he put arsenic from poisoned rats on The concubine was poisoned to death in the mother's bowl, but the daughter also died the next day for no reason. Everyone said that it was the first wife who came to ask for her life. Her husband only then knew the truth of the previous incident, so he abandoned the concubine. It was buried hastily. It's a pity that after a business operation, there is not even a single person to sacrifice."

He Mu said: "This is the retribution of heaven. Such a wicked person may not end well in his next life."

Mother Yun said: "There is another one. It seems to be somewhere in Hunan. There is an official wife who is afraid that her concubine children will oppress her children. She especially likes to give people red flower soup. Even those who have never had a relationship with her husband The maids at the beginning and the end were not spared, and I don’t know how many people have been ruined by her. In the end, her three daughters were taken care of and had no children, and they were divorced by her husband’s family. This is also a karma.”

Mother He nodded and said, "It's natural to hurt a man's heir. But it's okay to repay it on herself, it's a pity to repay it on her daughter." She suddenly remembered that Cao Jinxiu was sterilized only after being given safflower soup by his wife. , Regretted bringing up this topic, and hurriedly changed his way: "Sure enough, it was bloody and scary. It's getting late, so don't mention it."

Nanny Yun wentssip a few more words, Mother He let her go to rest, leaving Cao Jinxiu crying to her aunt: "Your servant abused me like this in front of my aunt, Auntie, can I still live?" ?”

Mother He put her arms around her and persuaded: "She didn't mean you. She is a straightforward person, and she will say whatever she hears. You are too thoughtful."

Cao Jinxiu said: "Auntie, she clearly did it on purpose! She said that the one who harmed his wife and suffered retribution, isn't she mocking me? The one who used a branding iron to burn people... and poured safflower soup but made his daughter suffer retribution That..." She cried out, "That, that is clearly talking about my mother!"

Mother He was taken aback: "Your mother used a branding iron to brand people?" Aunt Cao has always been strict with maidservants and concubines. She also taught Mother He to pour safflower soup into her husband's room back then. There is arrogance, but he can't do it.Mother He now remembered that her elder sister must have done the pouring of safflower soup; but using a soldering iron to burn people was really unimaginable.

Cao Jinxiu felt a little regretful when she said that, but she couldn't take it back, so she had to lower her head and said, "No...that maid is very seductive and seduced my father, and my mother was in a hurry.
