Chapter 6 I advise you to retreat despite the difficulties
When Mrs. Tong gave the order, the two tall women behind her immediately stepped forward to slap her.
Naturally, Liangjiang couldn't watch Yu Ma being humiliated, so she shouted: "Stop!"
Mrs. Tong felt her eyes suddenly light up. A woman wearing a lavender soft smoke skirt, with calm eyebrows and an extraordinary grace came out of the courtyard and bowed to her.
"I wonder what my people said wrongly that made you, madam, so violent?"
Didn't Tong Zhaoer come to her door on her own initiative?
Mrs. Tong choked, raised her hand to push away the two women, looked at Liang Jiang up and down, and felt vaguely familiar, as if she had seen it before somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a while.
"Who are you? I discipline my servants according to my rules, how can you say anything?"
"I don't care how my wife disciplines my servants, but the people you want to beat are mine, and this is my yard." Liang Jiang was neither humble nor overbearing.
Mrs. Fang coughed uncomfortably and whispered: "She is the woman Chengxu married last year, her surname is Liang."
"What?" Mrs. Tong pretended to be surprised, and then became furious: "Fang Chengxu already has a family? In that case, why did he come to provoke my daughter? Is it possible that my Zhao'er will be kept low and become a child?
If I had known this, it would have been better for me to have complied with my general and prosecuted you Fang Chengxu for abducting a good woman! I would not have let Zhaoer suffer this injustice!"
Fang Chengxu was scolded and fell silent, while Mrs. Fang also looked embarrassed.
Seeing Mrs. Tong being so pretentious, Liang Jiang knew that she was testing her own attitude.
Moreover, she didn't seem to recognize herself.
After all, Tong Shouliang had just achieved great success in the past few years and brought his family to Beijing for a reunion. He has been staying in Yuhua Mountain and rarely returns to Beijing.
Even Tong Shouliang, the last time he saw him seemed to be five or six years ago. If Leng Buding saw him in Fucheng, he would not dare to recognize him for a while.
So he felt relieved, blinked his eyes in surprise, and looked at Fang Chengxu: "When you met Miss Zhaoer, didn't you tell her truthfully that you had a wife?"
Fang Chengxu glanced at Mrs. Tong and did not dare to answer truthfully.
Mrs. Tong snorted softly: "If I say so, how can I, the daughter of the general's palace, be willing to commit myself to him?"
Liang Jiang added fuel to the fire: "That is indeed a fraudulent marriage, but I don't know how to deal with it according to military law if you marry someone privately in a military camp and get married through fraud?"
Old Mrs. Fang became anxious when she heard this: "Why are you such a vicious woman? You just want him to be punished and never have a chance to succeed. You might as well just guard him all your life, right?"
Liang Jiang smiled calmly: "They were the ones who had an affair without a matchmaker. I was just discussing the matter. How come it was me who harmed him?"
Fang Chengxu said sternly: "What you said is too unpleasant! When I married you, it was just the matchmaker's words ordered by my parents. I had to follow it. I am truly in love with Azhao."
Liang Jiang sarcastically said: "Why, someone put a knife on your neck and forced you to marry me? If I marry you, I will be my wife, and if I run, I will be my concubine. If you don't have sex, what are you doing?"
Liang Jiang was eloquent and his refutation left Fang Chengxu speechless.
When Mrs. Tong saw that she was neither humble nor arrogant, and had no respect or flattery for herself, she was immediately displeased and her face sank.
"Now that Fang Chengxu has really emerged and seems to have a bright future, it is understandable that some people are stalking him and are reluctant to do so.
But I'm afraid you don't know that if it weren't for the support and cultivation of my general, how could Fang Chengxu be as glorious as he is today? His stay and stay depended on the General's Mansion. Whether you want to be a wife of a poor family or a concubine of a noble family, it all depends on your thoughts. "
"Is Mrs. Tong threatening me with my husband's future? If I were your Mrs. Tong's daughter, how would you choose?"
Liang Jiang threw the question back to Mrs. Tong.
Mrs. Tong snorted coldly: "You must have that blessing too! I'm not afraid to tell you that in the future, if Chengxu is an official in Beijing and plays the harp with Zhaoer, you will have to stay alone in this remote place and guard an empty house for the rest of your life. Why worry about it? ?
Either keep your status as a concubine and follow Fang Chengxu to Beijing to enjoy the blessings, or take a sum of money and leave voluntarily, which is better than staying in the Fang family shamelessly. "Old Mrs. Fang, who had been silent all the time, immediately echoed:
"What Mrs. Tong said is true. Instead of clinging to this title that is only in reality and dying alone, it would be better to take a step back and enjoy a brighter future. Everyone will be happy. Naturally, the General's Mansion will not treat you badly."
Otherwise, Chengxu will send you away directly with a divorce letter. You will have a bad reputation and bad morals, and no one will dare to marry you even if you want to remarry. "
"Want to divorce your wife?" Liangjiang's face was calm: "Please invite the elders and matchmakers of the clan to tell you whether it is Qi Chu or Yi Jue. What mistake did I, Liang Jiang, make? I wrote the letter of letting go of my wife in public. I will never say anything about it. ”
"Do you think we don't dare?" Mrs. Fang seemed to be confident: "There will be a banquet at the house tomorrow, and we will not only invite the virtuous and respected squires of Fucheng, but also the famous Lord of Fucheng.
When the guests gather together, if you write a letter of divorce in front of everyone, you will regret it. "
Liang Jiang sneered: "Can you invite the Lord of Fucheng? You are so bold."
Old Mrs. Fang raised her eyebrows proudly: "What, you don't believe it? When you got married, the city lord didn't come in person, but he still ordered people to send congratulations. This is friendship.
Although she owns half of Fucheng and is highly respected, she stamps her foot and Fucheng trembles. But now my son has made a successful career and has a bright future. In the future, not everyone will be able to reach this high position. "
However, a small fourth-grade military general also speaks arrogant words, which is really a villain's success.
Liang Jiang felt even more contemptuous: "Then I'm afraid you will be disappointed. No one in the entire Fucheng has ever seen the true face of the city lord. Will she agree to your banquet?"
Mrs. Fang deliberately showed off in front of Mrs. Tong: "You underestimate the status of our Fang family in Fucheng. The city lord has already accepted the invitation and will attend the banquet on time tomorrow.
You know, if this city lord were to come, how many people would rush to fawn over her and get a glimpse of her true face, and the whole city would know about your scandals. "
Liang Jiang looked at Yu Ma in surprise, and Yu Ma shook her head, saying that she didn't know anything about it, and she was full of suspicion for a while.
Old lady Fang had a clear view of the expressions of the master and servant, and concluded that they must be afraid.
He said more openly: "If you know what's interesting and retreat when faced with difficulties, I think that in this year's relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, maybe you will be considerate of your reputation and don't make any publicity, so that you can remarry in the future."
Liang Jiang slowly raised his lips: "Unfortunately, I am not the one who knows what is right. If you have any means, just use it. I would like to wait for the city lord to come, and I am just begging her to make the decision for me."
After saying this, he greeted Yu Ma and turned around to leave. He was rejected by a few people and didn't waste any more words.
Of course, peace and separation are what I want, but let me swallow my anger and take the initiative to protect the reputation of your Fang family and the General's Mansion. Dream on!
Mrs. Tong frowned and asked: "This woman is so sharp-tongued and even the slaves are so arrogant and domineering. You can see how my Zhao'er has swallowed her anger and been bullied by her in the past few months!
What is her background? Judging from her speech and behavior, she does not look like an ordinary country woman. "
Mrs. Fang said disdainfully: "The mother and daughter are outsiders. They just came to Fucheng to settle down two years ago. They bought land and bought land. Their family seems to be very wealthy."
"Is there no man at home?"
"No, it is said that when a man died unexpectedly, a good lady left her hometown and came here to live temporarily so as not to get emotional."
Mrs. Tong frowned: "The Fang family is also a family of generals. How could they marry a woman of unknown origin?"
Of course, Mrs. Fang couldn't say that she was coveting the mother and daughter's property and lying against her will: "This good lady happened to cure my stubborn illness, so she wanted to repay her kindness and insisted on marrying her daughter to Chengxu. I had no choice, and now I can't get divorced easily. ”
"Mrs. Liang? Do you know medical skills?" Mrs. Tong suddenly woke up like an enlightenment: "No wonder she looks so familiar!"
"Mrs. Tong, do you know her?" Old Mrs. Fang asked.
Mrs. Tong immediately denied the speculation: "The facial features are somewhat similar to those of a deceased friend. It's impossible, it can't be them."
