Zhe Jinchun

Chapter 36 Zuo Sikuang
After hearing Mrs. Wu's question, Lin's expression was a little stiff. After a while, Fang Yu leaned slightly in his seat and said in a low voice: "I also just found out soon, and I will find an opportunity to inform Jungu." After a pause , and sadly said: "New funerals are complicated, Aunt Jun, please forgive me." After speaking, his expression was already sad.

Madam Wu was startled, and gradually, a layer of sadness appeared on her face.

Once Qin Shizhang died, the Qin family's lintel was lowered by two points. Once the Qin family's lintel was lowered, it would affect Qin Shifang.

Even for this daughter, Mrs. Wu also felt that Qin Shizhang died too early.

Mrs. Lin was still mourning and weeping, her thin arms slipped out of her sleeves, seeing Mrs. Wu, she couldn't help sighing softly.

Mrs. Lin is also a poor person, a young man who lost her husband and still has to deal with matters big and small, even if she did not report the matter of the Xue family to Madam Wu in time, it was not a big mistake.

"Sisters and wives, don't cry, be careful of your body." Mrs. Wu said in a rare and gentle manner, and called the maid to add a hidden pouch for Lin.

Qin Shifang also noticed her gaffe, looked around in embarrassment, and also covered her face and pretended to wipe away her tears.

It seems that she finally remembered that the bones of her nominal second brother were not yet cold. She was thinking about the rare book in the hands of the dead brother at first, and then she was overjoyed by the matter of the Xue family, which is a bit out of the ordinary.

After a while of silence in the room, Mrs. Wu's voice sounded again: "There is no rush, but the three volumes must be retrieved sooner."

Lin smiled submissively, with a gentle expression: "Yes, Aunt Jun, I will send people to the farm to pick up the books."

Qin Shifang's heart was mostly relieved, and she glanced at Mrs. Wu gratefully. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Qin Su was still standing in front of the case, and she immediately said kindly, "Liu Niang, go back and sit down."

Qin Su obediently responded, took a few steps back and wanted to go back to her seat, but her legs and feet didn't obey her, and after only two steps, her knees gave way and she fell straight down.

There was a sudden exclamation in the room, Mrs. Wu repeatedly called out: "Hurry up and help Liu Niang get up." Then she asked Qin Su: "Tell grandma, what's wrong?"

Qin Su shook her head and said nothing, her legs were bent on the ground, unable to straighten for a long time, Jinxiu and Ali joined forces, and couldn't help her up for a while.

Qin Shifang said casually: "I see that Liu Niang seems to have some inconvenience in her legs and feet. Could it be that she was injured on the road?" She left her seat, squatted beside Qin Su, and patted her knee with her hand.

Qin Su immediately snorted, and Qin Shifang immediately asked, "But is it hurt here? Does Xue Erlang know?" The curiosity and inquiry in his eyes were very explicit.

Qin Su shook her head in pain: "No... Aunt..." Her voice was broken, as if she was too painful to speak.

A layer of haze flashed across Lin's face, and then disappeared again. He got up and walked to Qin Su's side to have a look. He frowned and said, "It's better to see a doctor." A slight impatience was suppressed in his tone.

Sometimes she fainted, and sometimes she couldn't stand up. Lin was deeply annoyed by Qin Su's many things.

Mrs. Wu told Jiang Yu: "Go and see a doctor." After a pause, she told Qin Su in a harmonious voice: "Liu Niang, don't move around."

It's rare for her to be so kind, not only Qin Su, but also other people in this room are not used to it, only Qin Shifang is used to it.

Jiang Yu took the order and went away. Jinxiu and A Li in this room finally pulled Qin Su up from the ground and helped him to the second room in the west.

In the second room, there was a long couch, which was used by Mrs. Wu for a short rest. Qin Su was placed there, Lin Shi, Qin Yanwan, Qin Yanzhen and others all followed, Mrs. Wu sat by the bed in person, To Qin Su, there was a burst of greetings.

In two lifetimes, this is the first time Qin Su has been treated so seriously, and she finds it very ironic.

Mrs. Wu's favor for her is probably because she has a dazzling "Mr. Xue's family" by her side.

Even when the Qin family in Yingchuan was at its peak, they still couldn't climb up to the big family like the Xue family, let alone the Qin family who now lives in Qingzhou.The disparity in family status between the two households is like that of a mountain and grass.

In front of the Xue family, the Qin family is not even worthy of carrying shoes.

Not to mention, just looking at how Xue Yunheng let Qin Su lead the way when he was in Taomujian, knowing that the road ahead was difficult and dangerous, we can see that he not only did not take the Qin family seriously, but also did not put the Qin family's life in jeopardy. in the eyes.This is certainly related to his nature, but it also shows from one aspect that in the eyes of these Guan clans, a family like Qin's is not worth their effort at all.

That's why Mrs. Wu was so excited.

This excitement is definitely not for the Qin family, but for her direct daughter.

Qin Shifang's husband, Zuo Sikuang, was an official to the county lieutenant, trying to get promoted, and the three rare books Qin Shifang was looking for, her secret thoughts about Qin Su, and Mrs. Wu's spare no effort to help, all these There is only one reason for everything:
Zuo Sikuang.

Zuo Sikuang is the son-in-law chosen by Mrs. Wu out of thousands of choices. He is not only handsome, but also very stable and enterprising.

The Zuo family is a declining noble family, worse than the Qin family. When Mrs. Wu chose Zuo Sikuang, she also felt that with the strength of the Qin family, the Zuo family could be overwhelmed, and Qin Shifang's life would be easier in the future.

However, at that time, the Qin family was in troubled times, so even such a marriage was not easy to come by.According to Yintang's investigation, Zuo Sikuang once had a marriage contract with a small noble family named Dou. Later, the Dou family left their hometown for unknown reasons, and there was no news, and the marriage was annulled accordingly. In the end, Mrs. Wu still got the marriage contract. Take the dragon to be a son-in-law.

Zuo Sikuang is indeed outstanding. He shoulders the mission of revitalizing the family, and he is quite successful. After three years of marriage with Qin Shifang, he first passed the county council with his own ability, and then passed with the secret help of the Qin family. The county council was finally nominated by the county's Zhongzheng, and he was appointed as a lieutenant.

However, with Zuo Sikuang's ambition, the little county lieutenant couldn't satisfy him, what he wanted was a higher position, and he wanted the Zuo family to go up to a higher level
It was because of Zuo Sikuang's ambition that Qin Shifang spared no effort and often went back to her natal family to seek help, hoping that her husband's official career would be smooth.

It stands to reason that as a housewife, Zuo Sikuang's official career should not be interfered by Qin Shifang, but she also has unavoidable difficulties.

I don't know if it was affected by the Qin family's bad luck in the past few years. Qin Shifang's life was very bad. During the ten years of marriage, she had never been pregnant at all. If Zuo Sikuang hadn't cared about the old love, she should have been divorced a long time ago. up.

Qin Shifang's panic can be imagined.

As the official wife of an official who has no children, if she wants to stabilize her position, she can only find a way from other places.

Qin Shifang is also considered to be two points smart, on the one hand, he is busy taking concubines for her husband, raising the concubine under his knees, striving for a virtuous reputation; , everything for the husband to think ahead.

Relying on Qin Shizhang's relationship, Qin Shifang gradually found out some ways in the officialdom. Apart from advising her husband, she also secretly helped Zuo Sikuang handle some unimportant official documents, and became a veritable helper.

The three volumes of rare books Qin Su had in hand were those of Qi Shifang, the wife of Zuo Sikuang's immediate superior, Jiangyang County Captain He Jingyan, which Qin Shifang used to curry favor with.

The eldest brother of the Qi family is the Prime Minister of Hanjia County, and he has a close relationship with the Marquis of Han'an Township.Qin Shifang in the previous life relied on this shortcut to make Zuo Sikuang get acquainted with the Han'an Township Hou, and thus became the Han'an Township Hou Yidang.

Qin Su frowned slightly, her heart was covered with a layer of haze.

As far as she knew, the members of this party did not end well.

The Qin family was ransacked and wiped out. In the final analysis, it was because of the He family's corruption case. The Qin family's brick kiln even found out the weapons privately hidden by He Duwei.

After the Qin family was wiped out, both the brick kiln and the porcelain kiln fell into the pockets of the Marquis of Han'an Township. Only a year later, the Marquis of Han'an Township was beheaded for treason, and the huge wealth of the Qin family disappeared.

It can be said that Qin Shifang "takes the greatest credit for breaking the Qin family".Of course, her life was also miserable. After the Qin family was ransacked, she was also expelled from the house by the Zuo family and became an abandoned wife. She died of illness not long after.

Zuo Sikuang was the only lucky person in this party. Not only was he not implicated, but he was also promoted to the position of Yushi Zhongcheng at one point, and the Zuo family gradually improved because of this.

In the previous life, the Zuo family was listed by the Yintang as the most revitalized/gentry family in the Chen Kingdom, and Zuo Sikuang was even a shining star in the family. The Yintang attached great importance to him and collected a lot of information. Qin Sufang was able to understand it indirectly. What happened to the Qin family.

However, Qin Su didn't know what happened to the Zuo family.

When she returned to the Kingdom of Chen in the 23rd year of Zhongyuan, Zuo Sikuang had disappeared from the court hall, and the censor Zhongcheng at that time was Huan Zicheng, that is, Bai Huan in "Bai Huan Xuan Li".
