Chapter 40
Mrs. Zhen has three sons and one daughter, but she loves her youngest son and only daughter the most.

Among them, the sister-in-law Zhen Fu is the worst. Zhen Fu fell in love with a scholar named Wen in Suzhou.

And give half of the Zhen family's wealth to Zhen Fu as a dowry.

Now Zhenfu has been married for seven years and has a son and a daughter. Wen Xiucai won the Juren the year before last, and was favored by a wealthy businessman in the provincial capital. Among the rich merchants, there was only one daughter, who was beautiful, so she wanted Wen Juren to marry into their family .

Wen Xiucai in the past, but now Wen Juren is very moved.

He is regarded as the best among scholars, and he won the Juren at a young age, and he will have a bright future in the future.

In the past, she had no choice but to marry a merchant girl, but now Zhen Fu's status is obviously not good enough for him.

But Zhang Juren was reluctant to part with Zhen Fu's dowry. Although the two had been married for many years, Zhen Fu was not simply a fool, she always held on to her dowry and never let go.

So Wen Juren discussed with Zhen Fu, intending to make Zhen Fu his equal wife and accept that he married the daughter of a wealthy businessman as his regular wife.

Wen Juren's plan was very good, marrying two daughters, the money of both families can be used in his official career, he is talented and has his wife's family wealth as a reliance, so he doesn't worry about not being a high-ranking official in the future.

But the sister-in-law of the Zhen family was never a good person, not to mention that Zhen Fu accompanied Wen Juren from poverty to fame.

All of a sudden, everyone in the county knew about this incident. The wealthy businessman was also a face-saving family, and he repeatedly denied that he wanted Wen Juren to marry into his family, and drew a clear line with Wen Juren.

Being ruined by someone, Wen Juren was furious. When Zhen Fu returned home, the two started arguing and even fought each other. Zhen Fu was not Wen Juren's opponent. On Juren's head, Wen Juren spared his life and begged for mercy one after another.

After the two had such a quarrel, they could no longer be the loving couple they used to be. Zhen Fu was treated coldly by Wen Juren and scolded by her in-laws at home. She had no choice but to turn to her natal family for help.

Mrs. Zhen loved her daughter, and immediately went to Suzhou with Kong Wu's powerful mother-in-law and nursing home, and brought back her daughter and a pair of grandchildren.

Now Mrs. Zhen is on her way, full of travel and dust, but her face is still as majestic as before, with the aura that strangers should not enter.

She looked at the two little girls, one big and one small, with a look of impatience in her eyes.

Mrs. Zhen dotes on her youngest daughter, but she is also patriarchal in her bones, and she is extremely strict with her granddaughters. On the contrary, she dotes on the little grandson of her youngest son's family to the extreme.

Right now, Zhen Baozhu and Zhen Zhenzhu had overslept and failed to welcome her. Mrs. Zhen felt that her majesty had been challenged.

So Mrs. Zhen planned to establish a good rule with these two little girls. Instead of letting them get up, she lowered her head and took a sip of tea. She asked Xie Chunxiao what happened to the Zhen family in recent days. , and the reason for Zhen Zhenzhu's marriage.

Xie Chunxiao explained to Mr. Zhen one by one, but he was a little absent-minded.

She was not afraid that Mrs. Zhen would blame her for mismanaging the family. In fact, Mrs. Zhen was a very smart person.

Although he is a strong person, he also knows that Xie Chunxiao's status is unusual, and both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are always polite.

Even with the matter of Zhen Zhenzhu, Mrs. Zhen had always looked down upon the Wu family, let alone the Wu family did such a thing.

Even though he was engaged to Jiang Ci, Xie Chunxiao asked Mrs. Zhen what she meant in the letter.

What Xie Chunxiao was really worried about was Baozhu's knee.

Bao Zhu was brought up pampered by her, and there is no part of her body that is not delicate, and she has never kneeled down before, but now she kneels for so long.

I'm afraid my knees are red.

Mrs. Zhou also felt sorry for her daughter, Zhuzhu was about to get married soon, and she only stayed at home for a short while, yet she still had to be disciplined.

They were anxious in their hearts, but they couldn't just talk to Mrs. Zhen regardless of their seniority.

Zhou's temperament is good, and his family background is also lower. Even if he has some complaints in his heart, he dare not say anything to Mrs. Zhen.

But Xie Chunxiao didn't have so many scruples, she could only tolerate Baozhu kneeling for a quarter of an hour at most, and then she had to remind Mrs. Zhen.

But before that, my sister-in-law Zhen Fu said rightly, "Mother, the two nieces have been kneeling for so long, do you think it's time to get up?"

Zhen Fu's appearance was similar to old Mrs. Zhen's. She was still pretty when she was not married a few years ago, but seven years later, her face is like a round basin, her waist is like a bucket, and her face is wrinkled when she smiles.

However, counting, she is not much different from Xie Chunxiao and the Zhou family.

Hearing what Zhen Fu said, Xie Chunxiao let it go, after all, when she married Zhen Fu, Zhen Fu had been married for three years, and she had never even met Zhen Fu.

However, Mrs. Zhou has been with this sister-in-law before. In Zhou's eyes, this sister-in-law Zhen Fu is extremely difficult to get along with. She is used to being pampered by Mrs. Zhen, and she feels that everyone should give in to her.

There is a daily dispute with Zhou's sister-in-law, Zhou's temper is soft, and she will give way to Zhen Fu at this time.

But Zhen Fu got worse, and repeatedly snatched clothes and jewelry from Zhen Zhenzhu, who was still young in the same grade. Threatening Zhen Zhenzhu not to tell Zhen Erye and Zhou Shi.

Zhen Zhenzhu was about the same age as Baozhu at that time, she was really soft-tempered, and she was afraid that Mrs. Zhou would be embarrassed by Mrs. Zhen because she had a dispute with her little aunt, so she kept her mouth shut.

If it hadn't been for being bullied by Zhen Fu so hard that Zhou Shi saw the big bruises on his arms and legs, he would probably have kept it from Zhou Shi.

From then on, Zhou Shi asked Zhen Zhenzhu to stay around this little aunt until Zhen Fu married Wen Juren. When they arrived in Suzhou, Zhou Shi only felt greatly relieved.

The past was vivid in his memory, but now that Zhen Fu came back, Zhou suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

The sister-in-law who was waiting in the boudoir used to be a headache for her, but now that Zhen Fu has become a big and three rough woman, wouldn't it be even more difficult to deal with?

Not to mention that Zhen Fu brought back two children.

Mrs. Zhou was really afraid that this sister-in-law would do something wrong with her daughter's marriage.

But Zhen Fu unexpectedly said something human.

Zhen Fu's words were still very useful, Mrs. Zhen immediately got Zhen Baozhu and Zhen Zhenzhu up.

"Look at me, I forget everything as soon as I start talking." Mrs. Zhen patted her forehead regretfully.

Both Xie Chunxiao and Zhou are not ignorant women, so they don't know that what the old lady said is just talking.

After all, in the old lady's eyes, only the brother of the third master Zhen's family was in her eyes, and she really didn't want to see her two granddaughters.

Xie Chunxiao didn't respond to her words, just held the orb in his arms, touched his knee, and asked if the orb hurt.

Baozhu is also a very sensible child, she simply shook her head.

Zhou stood aside without saying a word.

Their silent resistance made Mrs. Zhen very angry again.

The old lady didn't even think about it, she asked Xie Chunxiao: "I heard that someone is pregnant with the eldest child recently, and this person is in our house now? Why don't you bring it here for me to have a look."
