The oil bottle of the Red Chamber

"what?"

Hearing that Chen's words are amazing, let alone Zhao family members, even Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen can't sit still.

"I want to go back to my natal family! I want to remarry!" Chen repeated impatiently, and said, "I married Zhao Chen at the age of 16, and I am only 25 years old this year, which is exactly the age of a flower. That dead ghost who never cared about me will never be a widow for the rest of his life. Of course I want to remarry."

Without saying a word, he sneered at everyone in the Zhao family: "This move is not in line with your wishes. Now that I am going to remarry, I can't take away the big house's land sale. At that time, if you want to adopt a stepchild, or do you want to marry?" Evacuating the big house, I am even more lazy to bother. It will save you all the painstaking calculations. Besides... If you can do one thing for me, I will leave half of my original dowry to the Zhao family. "

The patriarch of the Zhao clan didn't wait for the Chen clan to continue, he waved his hands and shook his head repeatedly and said, "This is not allowed! This is not allowed! Although our Zhao family is not a well-known scholarly family, it is also a family of eunuchs, and the family still goes to school. What you want is this face and reputation. How can you do such a ridiculous thing as letting your daughter-in-law remarry."

Mrs. Chen sneered again and again without entanglement, pointing to the second housekeeper Zhao Lin and his son Zhao Shuo who were standing aside, raised eyebrows and said: "It's okay if you don't remarry. It's just that now the first housewife and the second housewife live in the same yard. Here, Uncle Zhuang and nephew are from the melon fields and plums, so don’t ask outsiders to say anything nice.”

The elders of the Zhao family looked at each other when they heard the words.

Mrs. Zhao never liked Mrs. Chen, seeing her being so aggressive and shameless now, she was trembling with anger.He spoke harshly and said: "If you are afraid of melon fields and plums attracting people's gossip, then it's easy to handle. People like us have the most reputation, so we don't allow the women in the family to do such obscene acts. If you are afraid that people will say Mouth, why don't you invite yourself to the nunnery, where the ancient Buddha with the green lamp, and keep women's way."

Before saying a word, Father Chen and Mrs. Chen stood up abruptly, and couldn't help shouting angrily: "It's too much to bully people!"

Father Chen smiled angrily, pointing at everyone in the Zhao family, he said: "The dead are the most important. You openly made a fuss in the mourning hall. Before Zhao Chen could wait for a hundred days, you jumped out to discuss the matter of adoption. What kind of plans are you thinking about?" Don't think that others don't know. Now that you have a disagreement, you have the nerve to drive my daughter to the temple to be your son's widow. I didn't know that your Zhao family has such a reputation. Since we respect your reputation, let's break up first Tell me, my good son-in-law, how did your darling's precious son die!"

As soon as the words were spoken, others were fine, but the faces of the old lady Zhao and Zhao Lin changed drastically, and Xiao Sun lost his mind, and even threw a sweet white carved tea bowl from the official kiln on the ground, only to hear a "crack" , the tea bowl was overflowing with tea, and the tea bowl was also broken in half.

Seeing this, Mrs. Chen became more determined, and looked sideways at the crowd with her arms folded, even sneering again and again.

The members of the Zhao clan still don't know why they heard Mrs. Chen's ambiguous remarks.Seeing that Mrs. Zhao's description changed drastically, she immediately slumped on the bed, and she no longer had the previous arrogance.Looking at the couple in the second room, they also looked devastated with shame and indignation.Even more suspicious, they began to discuss in whispers.

Mr. Chen stunned everyone in the Zhao family with one sentence, You struck while the iron was hot, and said with a cold face: "As a ninth-rank official of the imperial court, my son-in-law actually violated the court's laws and messed around with fireworks. And died shamelessly on the bed of the brothel kiln sister. When such a scandal happened in the family, you didn’t cover it up in every possible way, but you got up in the mourning hall because of a little money and profit. I don’t want to pay attention to it, but you shouldn’t, you shouldn’t use my daughter as a knife, and you really think there is no one in our Chen family?”

As soon as Mrs. Chen finished speaking, the whole clan was greatly astonished.The patriarch of the Zhao clan was not aware of it, and quickly turned his head and asked: "It's not that the old man died of heart palpitations, why is there a brothel and Chu house now?"

Father Chen stood aside, spat on the ground with disdain, and said coldly: "Passing away with heart palpitations, that's barely called it. The sudden wind is somewhat similar to heart palpitations."

This is really far-fetched, how can this palpitation be the same as the wind on the horse?The former is a common disease, which is regrettable.The latter is ridiculous.If old Mrs. Chen's words were to spread today, the rest of the Zhao family would not be able to stand up among their neighbors in the street, not to mention going to school and becoming officials in the court.

The Zhao clan was trembling with anger, pointing at the old lady Zhao tremblingly and asking: "What's going on?"

The family scandal was exposed, and Mrs. Zhao was really ashamed.Immediately drooping her head and not answering, the second room Zhao Lin and his daughter-in-law saw this, hurriedly stepped forward and smiled and said: "The patriarch Mingjian, as the saying goes, family ugliness should not be exposed. How can we tell the people who came to condolences that the elder brother died so disgracefully. "

"You—" Since you know that you have no face to face others, why bother to make troubles in the mourning hall.Fortunately, he still thought of his blood relatives before, so he came here to make decisions for them.I didn't expect that I was also innocent.

The Zhao Clan couldn't even utter an angry word, and before they had time to raise their voices, they heard old Mrs. Chen say indifferently: "Although the family ugliness is not easy to publicize, but there are many people in the brothel and Chuguan, and most of them are gossips. Even if You have collected some money earlier, but it is difficult to guarantee that they will keep their mouths shut. If this matter cannot be made public in the future, it is everyone's good luck. If it is made public..."

Mrs. Chen glanced at everyone in the Zhao family with a cold expression, flicked his sleeves lightly, and said leisurely: "I remember that there are also a few boys in the Zhao family who are studying in the county school. I don't know that such a scandal happened in the family. During the assessment If your reputation is not good, can you still be promoted by the teacher? If you really delay your studies because of this, it will be bad."

Hearing this, the members of the Zhao clan became even more embarrassed.

After a pause, Mrs. Chen looked at the members of the Zhao family who were all blushing in the room and wished to dig a hole into the ground, and said slowly: "Marriage is a good idea to have two surnames. Originally, people like us, for the sake of reputation and shame, In fact, there should be no remarriage. However, firstly, the mother-in-law and the heir of the second house conspired to seize the property of the big house, and then there was the uncle, nephew, and Li Xia, who had a big melon field. The old man thought that instead of being driven to the nunnery by the mother-in-law I am lonely here, and the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha is a living dead, so it is better to break off the in-laws. From now on, we will marry each other, and the two have nothing to do with each other."

The members of the Zhao clan looked at each other, and the head of the Zhao clan couldn't help discussing: "This matter is of great importance, can we discuss it in the long term?"

Father Chen waved his hand, shook his head and said with a smile: "Old brother is a sensible person, and we sensible people don't speak dark words. Look at the scheming between your mother-in-law and the second wife of your Zhao family today. If it weren't for our Chen family's connections, If it wasn't for my daughter's stronger temperament, the old brother thinks that if things go on like this, can my poor girl still lead her two daughters to live in peace?"

The head of the Zhao family who asked a single sentence was speechless, and couldn't help but glared at the old lady Zhao angrily.He came to judge this matter today, but he was really full, and put a shit bowl on his head.

Father Chen smiled slightly, flicked his sleeves again, raised his legs and said, "The Zhao family and the Chen family were old friends for generations. By coincidence, the two families became in-laws again. They were supposed to help each other and support each other. But now The son-in-law died of illness, and the mother-in-law and the second-bedroom family described it in this way. The rift between the two families is already deep, and even if my daughter wants to settle down at any time, she may not have this opportunity. In this case, instead of holding on to my daughter hard, Why don't we get together and get separated, and we will meet again in the future and leave an old friendship. Brother, don't worry, our two families have such a deep friendship. If there is something in the Zhao clan to ask for each other, the old man and my unfilial son will definitely do our best. After all, even though the in-laws are broken , is the old friendship still there?"

Everyone in the Zhao family was dumbfounded and looked at each other in blank dismay.With these words, it is clear that they are using the power of the Chen family to force the Zhao family to submit?The implication is that if the Zhao family agrees to the Chen family's remarriage, the two clans will still exchange courtesy in the future. If they disagree... I am afraid that the Zhao family will be in trouble in the future.

Everyone in the Zhao family was terrified.The patriarch of the Zhao clan also felt extremely bitter in his mouth.I just feel that the Chen family is really in a difficult situation.After all, the most important thing for a family of farming and studying like them is their face and reputation.Now that Zhao Chen has just died, the Chen family wants to remarry unruly.Even if outsiders will say that the Chen family is flirtatious and can't stay widowed, there will probably be some people commenting that the Zhao family is mean and widowed, and that they can't tolerate their orphans and widows to live a clean life.

Such a reputation will be spread, what face does the Zhao family have to communicate with other families.

The patriarch of the Zhao clan wanted to discuss it with Mrs. Chen again.From the first sight, I can see that the old man Chen is confident and confident, and he knows that the people of the Chen family are not friendly, so since he can say such interlocking threats, he must have had such an idea long ago.If he forcibly keeps people for the Zhao family's face.I am afraid that if the person stays, the future troubles will also stay.

The patriarch of the Zhao clan pondered for a long time, and felt that although it was unpleasant to let the Chen clan go home to marry each other, it was not that important after all compared with the interests of the Zhao clan.What's more, put the Chen family back, and after some operations in the future, maybe it can give Zhao Jiabo a reputation of being kind-hearted and soft-hearted, who can't bear the reputation of his wife being a widow and being a living dead...

The patriarch of the Zhao clan thought about it in his heart, and asked the old lady Zhao who was sitting beside him with a smile, "What do you think the old sister-in-law should do?"

Before Mrs. Zhao could answer, Father Chen suddenly interrupted and said, "The matter of Zhao Chen's death on Sister Yao's bed is a disgrace after all. If it spreads out, our Chen family will lose face as well. Don't worry, old in-laws. I'll be sure to tell my family well when I go back." Son, let him handle this matter comprehensively. It will not delay the Zhao family's reputation, nor will it delay Zhao Lin's scientific examination."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Zhao Lin calmly.With just one glance, Zhao Lin's spine felt inexplicably shivering.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhao's heart sank unconsciously.
