Chapter 19 Aunt
In the sky, a luxury vehicle pulled by a flying spiritual beast drove toward Kunwu City and slowly parked on the Yingxian Terrace in the northwest corner of Kunwu City.
The Yingxian Terrace usually only receives distinguished guests. After all, only famous families can use the flying beasts.
In the car, a mother and son got out of the car slowly under the care of the soul boy, and walked towards Mrs. Shui and Tang Yue, who had been waiting for a long time
The older woman looked at Mrs. Shui and said, "Cousin You look good. I thought you would be depressed after being hit. I didn't expect you to be calm and not affected by external difficulties. You are worthy of our Shui family."
The smiles on the faces of Tang Yue and Mrs. Shui. Just lost three points. What does this mean? Does it mean that they have a bad life and shouldn't be so happy?
Mrs. Shui answered: "Thank you for your concern, sister. I am living a pretty good life and have not suffered any blows."
The older woman looked understanding and said, "Cousin Mo I have to hold on, I know that my brother-in-law prefers the concubine of the West Courtyard, but I didn't expect that he actually loves the concubine's child more.
At the critical moment, he ignored Yue'er's life and only saved the concubine. I think you will feel the same way in your heart. My brother-in-law is heartless and sad.”
“What’s more, not only did you not enjoy the benefits of the city lord’s wife, but you also used your dowry to subsidize your husband’s family. However, the people in the city did not care about your kindness, only the virtuousness of Zhuang Qiaohui. name.
My sister only knows your difficulties today. "Mrs. Shui's cousin was talking, with tears in her eyes.
The corners of Tang Yue's mouth twitched, why didn't this aunt hide her intention to see a joke when they first met.
She only found out the day before that her aunt was coming to Kunwu City to visit Shui Yingrou, and today she came with her mother to greet her.
This aunt and Shui Yingrou are cousins, named Shui Peishan. Her father is the younger brother of Shui Yingrou's father.
Shui Peishan has always been jealous that Shui Yingrou married a good husband and was the lord of the city. His cousin married into the city lord's wife and was in charge of the city. < br>
Moreover, Tang Wenhua is a talented person with outstanding talents, much better than the direct disciple of the Ruan family she married.
In the past, she liked to use Tang Wenhua's concubines to attack Shui Yingrou to find a sense of balance. She also didn't forget to say that she was the only one in her husband's backyard, and she would never dare to have a second woman.
Shui Yingrou didn't like hearing this, and sometimes she couldn't help but quarrel with Shui Peishan, but the two of them didn't. After all, people are closely related and have the same spirit, so they have tolerated each other for so many years.
Shui Yingrou didn't know why Shui Peishan came to Kunwu City today.
Tang Yue stepped forward to greet you: "Auntie, you have worked hard all the way. We have packed the room and are waiting for you to check in. ”
"Hey, poor child, you must not be having a hard time these days. Not only are you not as good as my concubine, but you are also not favored by your father.
I heard that you signed up for the Taoism Conference out of anger. You must have wanted to prove that you are not as good as me. That concubine is bad.
The Dao Discussion Conference is not a joke. Applicants cannot withdraw from the competition. If you make a fool of yourself, what will the people of Liuzhou Continent think of you?" Shui Peishan looked worried. .
Tang Yue was speechless. She felt that her aunt wanted to prove that mother and son lived a miserable life, so she didn't want to answer the conversation and give her a chance to show off.
"Auntie, that's our carriage over there. Flying is not allowed in the city. Let's take the carriage back home."
Then the group of people went back in the carriage. She interrupted her aunt many times. Unfortunately, her aunt had some objections to her in the end.
She noticed that in her memory she had always been very arrogant, and her cousin, who claimed to be a young lady from a wealthy family, was silent along the way. What major blow was this?
Tang Wenhua still prepared a small family banquet for Shui Peishan. After all, the Ruan family to which Shui Peishan married had some status in Wuji Mountain and was qualified for the city lord to receive special reception.
In addition, she is indeed his wife's cousin. He has been trying to please Shui Yingrou during this period, so he naturally wants to give face to his wife.
So he took time out of his busy schedule to hold a family dinner for his wife's sister, which can be said to be more important
Shui Peishan received good hospitality, but she was unhappy to see Shui Yingrou being cared for by Tang Wenhua.
She murmured in her heart: Isn't the relationship between her cousin and her brother-in-law very bad? Why is Tang Wenhua so nice to Shui Yingrou in front of his true love, his concubine?
Zhuang Qiaohui was also unhappy inside. Although Tang Wenhua also visited her during this period, he treated the eldest lady much better than before, so he had less time and energy allocated to him.
Could it be that at this age, Tang Wenhua has begun to fall in love with Shui Yingrou again?
They really misunderstood Tang Wenhua. Only Shui Yingrou and Tang Yue knew in their hearts that he wanted to trick people into continuing to contribute money and efforts. Of course, he had to spend some money. Now he has just done it. .
Zhuang Qiaohui spoke first: "Cousin from the Shui family hasn't been to Kunwu City for a long time. She is such a rare visitor."
Shui Peishan frowned. Although she couldn't see her cousin being proud, she was sincere. I don't like concubines and the like. "I came to see if my cousin has been wronged in Kunwu City, so that the people in this city know that the wife of the city lord has the support of her mother's family."
After listening to her words, Tang Wenhua and Zhuang Qiaohui both frowned. This meant that they were not treating Shui Yingrou well, but both of them felt guilty.
Tang Wenhua smoothed things over, "As for my cousin, Yingrou is very good in Kunwu City. Look at her now with a rosy complexion and full of energy."
Shui Yingrou laughed in her heart. She looked good not because Tang Wenhua was kind to her, "Yes, thanks to my daughter who always misses me and always makes me some magical meals, which makes me more energetic every day."< br>
"Speaking of the child Tang Yue, I heard that she was seriously injured a year ago. It was her brother-in-law who failed to stop the ferocious beast in time, which caused her to be so seriously injured that she needed to rest for a long time. .
Brother-in-law, I would say this is your fault. Tang Yue is the legitimate daughter, and her mother is from Wuji Mountain. Her status is naturally more noble than those of low birth. How could you be so confused at the critical moment and not go? Where to save the prostitute? "
Shui Peishan's words successfully embarrassed the people in Kunwu City. Tang Wenhua preferred the concubine in his heart. It was known to everyone in the city, but he didn't show it. To put it bluntly, Tang Yue is also suspected of harming others rather than herself in this matter. She really doesn't care about anything.
Zhuang Qiaohui and Tang Wan are unhappy. Who is the inferior person? It is unreasonable for the Shui family to just rely on the support of their ancestors and not take others seriously.
Tang Yue didn't want to dwell on these old things, otherwise today's dinner would be extended. She also wanted to go back and write an article about micro-spirits.
So she took the initiative to speak: "Aunt, thank you for your concern, but the situation was urgent at the time, and my father didn't think so much, so I can't blame him."
Tang Wenhua breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Tang Wenhua Yue knew something about it, "It was indeed my fault at the time. It was my fault that I was unable to save the two children, but I didn't mean it."
Shui Peishan would not let him go, " A person's preference can only be reflected in a desperate situation. It can be seen that brother-in-law, you value this unattractive concubine more. I heard that it was you who supported her, so she found many male disciples to embarrass Tang Yue? "
Tang Wan couldn't help it. This lady of the Shui family was belittling him everywhere in her words, and she even slandered herself.
"Aunt Shui, I didn't find anyone to embarrass sister Tang Yue. I didn't know beforehand that these people would conflict with my sister, otherwise I would definitely dissuade them."
"So, Tang Yue is in Kunming Is it true that our city is being embarrassed? City Lord, I have to say that this is what you did wrong. How could you let your own daughter-in-law be bullied? Those people are still supporting a concubine. Are you normal? "You spoil your concubine too much and destroy your wife too much."
Tang Yue was a little confused when she heard the four words "pampering my concubine and destroying my wife", as if she had entered a house-fighting novel again.
In fact, although there are monks in the world of immortality who take concubines, they are not many in number. They are just some from famous families, and the wives are generally of high status. In order to give birth to talented offspring, monks with high qualifications will marry each other.
The head wives of famous families looked down upon concubines at all. In their eyes, concubines were the same as slaves, and only in some special circumstances would their husbands take concubines.
People in the world of cultivating immortals regard embarking on the path of immortality as their highest goal, and do not put much energy into reproducing offspring. Sometimes they practice dual cultivation, still to increase their cultivation.
It is indeed rare for Tang Wenhua to pamper his concubines like this, which is equivalent to having two wives. However, he has always believed that he is the lord of a city and is a prince in the mortal world. It is also appropriate to have two wives.
Based on the above factors, few people mentioned such ancient things about wives and concubines to Tang Wenhua, and he didn't know how to react when he heard such accusations.
Shui Peishan continued to embarrass everyone, "I also heard that for so many years, brother-in-law, you have let your sister use her dowry to subsidize Kunwu City.
When she didn't want to subsidize anymore, You also allow the monks to cause trouble and want to take away her private property. Where are you putting your first wife in this way? "
Shui Yingrou and Tang Yue, who wanted to change the subject, stopped talking. Aunt Shui was right. They also wanted to hear what Tang Wenhua had to say.
Tang Wenhua blushed a little. It is true that using his wife's dowry does not sound good, but isn't he doing it all for Kunwu City? There was no other way, so he used his trump card.
“Cousin, I didn’t know why you suddenly came to Kunwu City. After all, it’s not the New Year’s Day and nothing unexpected happened. I received a letter from Brother Duan from Wuji Mountain this morning and I didn’t know that you Why are you here today?”
“Cousin, what Brother Duan values most in his life is to cure his daughter, prolong her life, and let her embark on the path of immortality like other monks. You really shouldn’t let Ruan Ying do such a wrong thing.”
Hearing his words, Ruan Ying, who was silent on the side, and Aunt Shui, who had been condemning her brother-in-law, both changed their expressions. Elder Duan was so quick. I found out about the two of them arriving in Kunwu City and sent a letter to Kunwu City.
