Rebirth of an Abandoned Woman

"Girl, aren't you going to give it to your dad?" Gu Jin took the banknote handed over by Aunt Jiang, counted it with excitement, and grinned at Gu Fangzi.

"Go! Send him out of the house." Wang waved her hand tiredly.

Gu Fangzi agreed softly, stared at Gu Jin resentfully, and led him out.

At the corner gate of Shifu, Gu Jin begged his daughter for the few pieces of silver she had brought out earlier, claiming that he had not eaten lunch yet and had no money to hire a car to go home. Seeing that Gu Fangzi was not paying attention, he pulled out the gold hairpin on her head and took off the jade bracelet from her wrist by force, saying, "The Shi family has plenty of money. Ask that boy Shi Fengju to buy you a new one!"

Gu Fangzi was so angry that she was shaking all over, but she could only endure her anger and watch him leave in a swaggering voice humming a tune.

Fortunately, she had the foresight to replace all the valuable jewelry before seeing him.

"What can we do! I don't think we can put off this matter any longer!" Wang frowned and sighed.

It's not like Gu Jin has never bothered Qiu Feng before, but this is the first time he said this. I don't know if he got the idea on his own or was inspired by someone. All in all, his appetite is getting bigger and bigger.

In the past, it could be spent with a few dozen taels or a hundred taels, but now it costs five hundred taels. I don't know how much it will be next time.

If he doesn't give it to him, he will definitely take Gu Fangzi away, and even she can't stop him! After all, they are father and daughter! If you sue the government, he will win! But if she left it alone, she couldn't bear to watch Fangzi go back and suffer!

"That's not easy to handle. After all, it's only a matter of time before my cousin and the eldest young master are accepted. As the saying goes, a married daughter throws away the water. There is no reason for the husband's family to support the father-in-law for nothing! He will make trouble again, That’s limited!”

Aunt Jiang saw what Wang was thinking and said with a smile.

"But," Ms. Wang said, "the new daughter-in-law has only been here for less than two months! Wan Niang is a good child. To be honest, I really love her. I don't want this child to be wronged. And the Sang family, after all, I am a scholar, how can I just let it go? It’s all the boss’s fault!”

Mrs. Wang snorted and took her anger out on Shi Fengju. If he hadn't been dissatisfied with the engagement with the Sang family, and had been dragging his feet in various ways over the years to refuse to consummate the marriage, Sang Wan would have come in early, and wouldn't Fangzi also be able to come in early? There is nothing to do today!

"From my perspective, the key to this matter lies with the eldest grandma," Aunt Jiang smiled. Seeing that Wang was listening and indicating to continue, she continued: "If the eldest grandma makes the decision to take a concubine for the eldest young master, it is the eldest grandma's fault. Xianhui, no one else can say anything, not even the Sang family can say anything!"

"Look at what you said, Wan Niang, can she be willing?" Wang gave Aunt Jiang a funny look, "Unless she is stupid!"

"Haha," Grandma Jiang said with a smile: "The daughter-in-law here is not allowed to listen to her mother-in-law! Isn't this the case since ancient times!"

Wang was startled, her face slightly stiff. Yes, if she hints at something, Sang Wan has no chance of objecting.

But when she thought of Sang Wan's gentle and calm smile, her gentle, respectful and virtuous words and deeds, Wang couldn't help but feel a little unbearable, and sighed: "That's true, but this is too, too unfair to Wan Niang! I think Feng Ju actually likes her. They have a good relationship with each other and their family is harmonious. My life is also comfortable! If she has a thorn in her heart, there will be disharmony between husband and wife in the future, and the family will be turned against each other. Chaos, isn’t that all my fault?”

Grandma Jiang was silent.

Wang didn't hear her utter a word for a while, turned around and cursed with a smile: "What else do you have to say? Why don't you finish it in one go!"

Aunt Jiang smiled and said: "To put it bluntly, which daughter-in-law is not angry with her mother-in-law? How many are as considerate as you, the eldest lady! Now that the eldest lady has a mother-in-law like you, she doesn't have to worry about it. Say hello in the morning. You don’t have to serve and set rules all day long. You don’t have to work in the kitchen. You don’t have to do anything. All you have to do is wear comfortable clothes to open your mouth and have food to hand. , you can do whatever you want, even if you sleep in the room all afternoon, no one will say no! This is called being aggrieved. I don’t know what it means to be not aggrieved!

Anyway, it is certain that Miss Cousin will come in, and Grandma must have known about it. You, if you let grandma do this favor, your cousin will definitely be grateful to her in the future. Wouldn't it be better for the two of you to get along? Moreover! If you feel that grandma has been wronged, wouldn’t it be enough to be a little nicer to her? If the eldest grandma only cares about herself and does not think about you, the eldest young master, or this family, then she is not a true virtuous person but a fake virtuous person! The old slave talks too much, the old slave should not arrange the master! "

After saying these words, Grandma Jiang took a step back and bowed to apologize.

"Get up!" Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "We can talk about anything behind closed doors! You are right, I think that's what I'll do! But this matter still has to be decided after Fengju comes back. I'll talk to Wan Niang first Get some wind."

"Madam, you have thought carefully!" Aunt Jiang quickly added.

Just then, the little maid came to report: Someone from the banker is here to deliver a post!

When she heard the word "Zhuangjia", Mrs. Wang hurriedly focused her attention. She heard that it was a servant delivering the post, not Mrs. Zhuang herself. She breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest gently and said: "This damn girl, you are so shocked." At first glance! It's okay, okay!" She thought it was Mrs. Zhuang who came to make fun of her after learning that Gu Jin came to bother her! Then I thought about how Mrs. Zhuang's information could be so well-informed? It was obvious that he was scaring himself, so he couldn't help but laugh.

After the visit, the visitor handed over a message saying that Mrs. Zhuang was hosting a banquet three days later and invited her to the banquet. Mrs. Wang readily agreed without thinking.

"I heard that Mrs. Zhuang's natal sister-in-law has brought a daughter of some relative of her natal sister-in-law. I heard she is a talented girl, right?" Mrs. Wang put down the post and asked leisurely.

"It seems so." Aunt Jiang nodded, but said disapprovingly: "I have gone through so many twists and turns with my relatives, but I heard that Mrs. Zhuang was calling her nieces one after another! I think she probably wanted to give it to the eldest husband of the Zhuang family! Tsk, what a talented girl! I think she is definitely not as good as our eldest grandma!"

"I think so!" Mrs. Wang suddenly became more motivated and said, "Send someone to invite Wan Niang!" Whether this daughter-in-law is truly talented or not, I believe it will be revealed soon. If she loses to the banker's shabby relative, she will be more confident to mention Gu Fangzi's entry; if she wins, it would be better to treat her with kind words, praise and comfort!

Mrs. Wang made up her mind and said to Grandma Jiang: "Don't tell grandma what we discussed just now, wait until you come back from the banquet!"

Aunt Jiang was amused in her heart and smiled on her lips, and said hurriedly: "How can I dare to talk about my master's affairs? Who else has the qualifications to say it except you?"

Wang thought so, smiled and nodded.

It just so happened that the two aunts of the second room were having a fight on that day, causing a mess in the yard. According to Mrs. Shi's temperament, after handling the matter, You will definitely take out her anger on Mrs. Shi. Second Mistress Shi wiped the soles of her feet with oil and slipped away quietly, running to Sang Wan to avoid the limelight. The two sisters were discussing and instructing the older girls to draw patterns on the kang, while eating melon seeds and snacks and chatting.

Hearing that Mrs. Wang wanted to see her, Sang Wan patted her clothes and stood up, grabbed a large handful of melon seed candies and gave them to the visitor, and asked the visitor, "But are there guests visiting?"

The visitor hurriedly accepted the thank you and said with a smile: "No, it was someone from the banker who sent a message to invite the eldest lady to the banquet. The eldest lady then asked the slave to invite the eldest grandma to come over."

"I know!" Sang Wan smiled and nodded, "I'll just change my clothes and come!"

Mrs. Wang likes to see people dressed up nicely. This home-style pine flower plain shirt is a bit too plain, so it would be better to change into something different.

Sang Wan then looked towards Second Mistress Shi, who said with a busy smile: "Since Auntie has invited me, Sister-in-law, please go ahead. I'll watch some girls here finish tracing these two flowers and plants and then go back!"

Although the host is not here, the guest should take his leave. But Second Mistress Shi really didn't want to go back and wade into the muddy water of the stall. At least she had to avoid Second Mistress Shi's anger before going back, so she said with a salivated face.

Since she said this to Sang Wan, she didn't want to chase people away in the open, so she smiled and asked her to do as she pleased. Seeing Hongye waiting to greet the girl who had come to deliver the message, she was sitting on a small table drinking tea and eating snacks and chatting in a low voice, so she called Liu Ya in. Change clothes.

After a while, Sang Wan changed into a set of primrose and four gentlemen patterns, a pink satin face-breasted narrow-sleeved gown, and a pink printed long skirt. Her bun was also slightly modified, and her hairpin was decorated with green inlaid pearls. Hua, with a very green jade bracelet on her fat-like wrist, called Nanny Li, followed by two little maids, and called the maid who was leading the way.

Wang's special enthusiasm today and her beaming smile made Sang Wan secretly amazed and suspicious.

Naturally, Sang Wan couldn't say no to the banquet at the banker three days later. She smiled and nodded softly, and simply smiled and asked humbly: "I'm not afraid of mother's jokes. My wife has never attended such a banquet. I don't know how to dress. Please ask me." Give me some pointers!"

Mrs. Wang was very happy to hear what she said and said with a smile: "Don't worry! I have already thought of this. The best tailor from our embroidery shop will come to the door later. There will be two or three days enough to make the final product." The clothes are new! There are also matching jewelry, and the female shopkeeper of the embroidery shop will also help match them. When you get them, I will ask someone to send them to you! "

Sang Wan felt relieved and said with a busy smile: "That's the best! My mother has thought carefully and carefully, and my daughter-in-law is ashamed of herself!"

Mrs. Wang smiled and waved her hands, and said: "Our Shi family has a lot of money, but it's not worth anything! Wan Niang, I heard that Mrs. Zhuang's crooked niece is a talented girl! Wan Niang, can you do it then? I have to give my mother some credit and compare with that woman! Let everyone know what a real talented woman is!"

stressed! Sang Wan complained secretly. Although she considered herself to be well-read, there were many great talents in the world. Since the other party had a reputation as a talented woman, it was clear that she was not a idle person. If nothing else, Mrs. Zhuang fought so passionately with her mother-in-law that if that woman had no real talent and knowledge, Mrs. Zhuang would definitely not show off or hold a banquet and post!
