Seventy-eighth palm: benefits
"The servant knows, sir." Jin Ming replied respectfully, and handed the two cloth-wrapped guqin that he was holding in his arms to Jin Fengju, and then went to direct the servants in person. Here Fu Qiuning hurriedly opened the door and said with a smile, "I really don't know if you have a good ear, but Feng'er and Jiao'er just told me that they need a qin in school, but who knows that you will send two of them over today, saying , when did you count?"
Jin Fengju laughed and said: "It's really not the ears of the wind, because yesterday I listened to Xiuzhen playing the piano in Qingwan Pavilion. Speaking of these two days of school, I will probably arrange piano lessons. I just remembered that the one in your study. Qin is the worst kind of thing, how can it be used by my two babies? So today, I specially ordered Jin Ming to go to the street to buy it. Although it is not a famous piano, it is also a high-quality one. That musical instrument shop is made for the palace. Musical instruments, don't dare to fool me. At least help me hold one, I'm really blind." As he said, he entered the back room.
The two children only heard the sound of the father's voice outside, but the north wind was blowing so hard that it was not real, and hesitantly got off the kang, when they saw that father and mother came in together, still holding a Putting on the guqin, the two children ran over with a roar of joy. Jin Fengju put the qin on the table, picked up the two of them and kissed them, and then fiddled with the qin strings like water, and the clear and melodious sound of the qin came out in an instant. Fu Qiuning also knew a little about musical instruments. After listening to it, he knew that the two pianos were really good, and the sound quality was really good.
"Daddy's body is so cold, come and sit on the kang." The two children fell in love with the guqin, and after looking at it for a long time, they remembered that their father's body was cold just now, but now they are still standing on the ground with themselves. jump up. Pulling Jin Feng up to the kang with one hand, he smiled and said, "Mother has put a blanket on the kang, and it is comfortable to sit in."
"Okay, okay." Jin Fengju took off his shoes and put on the kang, got into the bed, and sighed comfortably. He smiled at Fu Qiuning and said, "Okay, you guys will be happy. Just let me work for you outside. I'm afraid you'll get cold, so Baba brought charcoal over here. It's obviously very warm."
Fu Qiuning smiled and said, "It's fortunate that you came to help. If you don't come, we'll really be freezing in a few days." She deliberately didn't mention how she spent the winter in the past, and Jin Fengju wisely didn't ask. But I heard Fu Qiuning say again: "Yes, you fell on the kang, can't you go back tonight?"
"I've never seen a cruel wife like you. It's freezing outside. I sent charcoal, but I'm going to drive me out? You feel your conscience and judge, is there any reason for this?" Jin Fengju He glared at Fu Qiuning: "If it were someone else. In such a day, I would be angry if I left. You are the only one who pushed me out."
Fu Qiuning thought that I am not your wives and concubines. Have you forgotten your promise yourself? Why do you keep comparing me to them lately? Yin frowned slightly and smiled lightly: "Where is it like you said? It's still freezing cold. After all, this is not three or nine days, I'm afraid the water surface hasn't frozen yet. Besides, I'm just afraid of your wives and concubines. I'm worried, just say something casually, and let you be so angry, and that's the case, just stay here." Since Jin Fengju was already sitting on the kang, she refused to sit on the kang, and just sat down on the ground on the ground. There is also a thick cushion on it, although it is not as warm as a heated kang, nor is it cold.
"You're on the kang, can I still eat you? What's more, if you have a husband and wife status, what are you afraid of?" Jin Fengju sneered, but was secretly annoyed, and secretly said that she had prevented me from being so defensive. , as if they were two unrelated people, they really refused to show me even the slightest gap, alas! Who is loved? But it's all other people's compliments.
"The kang is crowded, it's enough for the three of you to be here." Fu Qiuning smiled calmly, and suddenly heard a burst of laughter from outside the door, and then the rain steps jumped in and shouted happily, "Grandma, go take a look, sir. People sent a lot of firewood and charcoal. Oh my God, I have never seen such good charcoal. Manager Jin said that there are more than 200 catties. What kind of silver wire charcoal is it? Now, and those firewood..." The little maid yelled at Fu Qiuning, suddenly feeling that something was wrong, and when she turned around, she saw Jin Feng sitting on the kang with a smile, looking at her with interest.
Yujie's voice seemed to be blocked, she opened her mouth and didn't know what to say, and it took a long time for her to react, she hurriedly squatted down and saluted, while murmuring: "Slave... I don't know that the master is here, I thought... I thought it was only Director Jin who brought charcoal here, this... the meal... the meal is almost ready, the servant will go to Zhang Luo..." Before he finished speaking, he smeared oil on the soles of his feet and ran away.
Jin Fengju laughed, shook his head and said, "People say that things are like a master, let alone a servant? It's just that this maid under your command has not learned your prudence and dignity at all? It's Yu Niang, who seems to have such a temperament."
Fu Qiuning said with a smile: "Yujie has been changed hands by human traffickers since she was a child, and she has traveled all over the country. She is used to her wild nature, not to mention being in the hands of human traffickers. I like her lively and interesting, not like Yu Niang, she is also in her youth, but she seems to be on the verge of death, without the slightest vigor."
Jin Fengju slowly withdrew his smile, stared at Fu Qiuning with deep eyes, and said softly: "You still say Yu Niang, why don't you look at yourself? After all, you are still much younger than her, and why are you so lacking in vitality? It's like a flower that is about to wither, it hurts for no reason."
Fu Qiuning smiled and said, "That's enough, you just said that I'm prudent and dignified. How can I be the same as Yu Niang? Now that I've talked about it, I have something in my heart, and I want to discuss it with you. This matter requires you. Just nod."
Jin Feng gave a snort, thinking that you should be stubborn, and she wanted to nourish you, but she didn't appreciate it. Because of that, he was a little disillusioned, lowered his head and said casually, "What's the matter? Tell me."
Fu Qiuning glanced at the two brothers and sisters and said, "You guys are probably warm too. Go to the kitchen to see if Yu Niang is busy. I have a few words with your father." After the kang, I went out to the kitchen.
Only then did Fu Qiuning say: "I think that Yu Niang is not yet 30 years old, so she is a widow for the rest of her life, which is really a pity. It is better to find her an honest family, so that she can rely on her for the rest of her life. In the past, when we chatted, Yujie once said that Zhang's mother, who was the gatekeeper in the corner of the backyard, had a son with a very good character. He and Yuniang were childhood sweethearts. Who knew that Yuniang's parents were greedy for money and married her to a landowner and old wealthy to fill the house. , in less than a year, let the powerful mother-in-law drive out. Fortunately, you bought her to be a slave, otherwise she would say that she would have no place to stand. Now why don't we fulfill this pair of lovers ? That mother Zhang's son has not yet married because of her. If it was someone else, I'm afraid it won't do it. How can the landlord agree to it? It's just that you are a little prince, and the landlord and old man don't even want to give you shoes. Opportunity, you only need a word at this time, are you afraid that he will not rush to present the divorce letter? What do you think?"
It turned out that Yu Niang was not abandoned, but the landlord's mother and children were driven out of the house. When she had nowhere to go, she happened to meet Jin Fengju. At that time, Jin Fengju was hating the laundry girl and delusional that her mother was expensive. Seeing that she was beautiful and helpless, she didn't ask her whereabouts, so she bought it and sent it to the backyard under the name of serving The child, in fact, is also humiliating the woman who covets wealth. Yu Niang was afraid of being kicked out again, so she only told people that she was divorced. Until two years ago, Fu Qiuning eagerly wanted to match her with Zhang Sange, but she really had no way to tell her true life experience.
In this way, although Fu Qiuning was angry that the old landlord was not benevolent and unjust, he still wanted to take back Yu Niang after his mother died, so he refused to give a divorce. But also helpless. She is fashionable and self-defeating, and she still has the energy to protect others. This matter gradually faded away, and only the third brother Zhang suffered, and he could only miss Yu Niang so much. Although Yu Niang adored him before, she was deeply poisoned by feudal ideology. Ever since she was kicked out of the landlord's house, her heart was like a dead tree, and she only coaxed her two children, and she could no longer feel the slightest ripple in love affairs.
At this moment, when Jin Fengju heard Qiu Ning say this, he leaned on the pillow, looked at her with a smile and shook his head: "You are not being kind anymore, just to make me happy. It's so low. Where can it be as easy as you said?" Even though he said that, he began to make a small abacus in his heart.
This matter is naturally very easy for him, a land rich owner, as long as he sends someone to say hello to him, he is not afraid that he will not hand over the letter of divorce. It's not a pair of lovers who are deeply affectionate, and their wife was forcibly robbed by a bully, and it is worth sue. What's more, he is now a high-ranking official, let alone a rich man, even a fifth-rank prefect, he would not take it seriously. But if this is the case, Fu Qiuning's wish will be fulfilled, then if one day in the future, when he wants to fulfill his own heart, who will be the master for him?
Thinking of this, I vaguely felt that I couldn't come down so happily. Perhaps holding this matter in hand will be of great benefit to him in the future. So he made up his mind and let Fu Qiuning be in all kinds of doubts. He only said that the time has not come, and the forces of all parties are complicated. . With that said, Fu Qiuning was helpless, so he had no choice but not to mention it for the time being. (To be continued)
