"What?"

The rice bowl held in Zhao Ruyu's hand fell to the ground with a clang and shattered into pieces.

She was raised by her grandmother, and she has the deepest love with her.

Everyone in the room looked in her direction.

Zhao Ruyu didn't care so much, grabbed the mother-in-law's hand and asked urgently: "Is it serious? Didn't you invite the doctor?"

"The person who came to summon me didn't say anything, and it's hard for me to ask. Third young lady, please go and have a look," the old woman said.

Zhao Ruyu's mother-in-law, Mrs. Peng Er, saw that her daughter-in-law looked wrong and had already come over. When she heard this, she quickly asked: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Zhao Ruyu's tears fell and she choked with sobs: "It was said that my grandmother had a stroke."

"Ah?" Mrs. Peng became anxious, turned around and shouted, "Jin Rui."

A young man hurriedly came over from the other side of the screen: "What's wrong?"

"Hurry up and follow Ruyu, meet the people from the Suiping Hou Mansion, and ask about Mrs. Hou's condition. If that doesn't work, go and ask for the imperial doctor."

"Okay." Peng Jinrui saw that his wife had run out with her skirt in hand, and he quickly followed her.

The Peng family quickly asked the woman who came to deliver the message: "What's wrong?"

So when Zhao Ruyu and Peng Jinrui inquired about the situation and rushed to the Suiping Hou Mansion in a carriage, the entire Peng family, except for the ignorant children under a few years old, knew that the old lady of the Suiping Hou Mansion had suffered a stroke due to the anger of the second wife, Wei.

"Is there such a daughter-in-law in the world?" Some people in the Peng family questioned.

The person who questioned this was Peng Jinrui's cousin's wife, and she had some conflicts with Zhao Ruyu. Although the two had never quarreled, they just didn't like each other.

She didn't mean to find fault, but her mother's family had a very strict upbringing, and she also had a very strict upbringing when she married into the Peng family. She really couldn't imagine that there was such a domineering daughter-in-law in this world.

"Why not? There are many people like this in the world." Her mother-in-law immediately glared at her.

"So, no matter what kind of family you marry, don't marry the daughter of that kind of family." Dr. Peng said.

"That's right." Everyone nodded in agreement.

Although Mrs. Peng did not say clearly what kind of family she meant, everyone understood what she meant.

Wei Qiu was born in a poor family. Later he was admitted to the imperial examination and was very good at working, and then he became the Minister of Taichang Temple. His wife was a girl from a small landowner's family and could not read a single word. Mrs. Wei was born in a mud-legged family.

In the eyes of the ladies and ladies from these aristocratic families, they are uneducated and do not understand the rules.

I don’t blame them for being biased. In fact, the newly promoted Jinshi or officials promoted from local areas every year may become colleagues or superiors of their husbands or sons. Their mothers and wives are invited to a banquet at home, and their words and deeds are vulgar.

Yes, there was one person who was quarrelsome and wallowing, and all kinds of behavior left them dumbfounded.

There are also some aristocratic families who take a fancy to the talents and character of the newly promoted Jinshi and marry their daughters to him. As a result, the mother-in-law is rude and rude. Not only does she use the dowry of her daughter-in-law, she also wants to step on this young lady from the aristocratic family to show her majesty.

The various shameless and despicable methods used to molest his daughter-in-law are staggering.

Even if this kind of thing is just an exception among officials from poor families, over decades or hundreds of years, a small amount adds up to a lot. For this reason, aristocratic families are reluctant to marry people born in poor families. Even if Wei Qiu is now a third-rank official, he has reached

In the marriage market, the market for the children of the Wei family is still not very good.

Had Zhao Yuanliang not been fascinated by the Wei family and wanted to marry her, and the deceased Duke was worried that his wife would treat his concubine poorly, so he asked the old lady to agree to the marriage. The old lady did not want to talk to them, and the Wei family would have really married her.

Do not enter the Suiguo Duke's Mansion at that time.

"Okay, let's eat quickly. We have to go to Prince Gongqing's Mansion tomorrow for a banquet. After dinner, take a rest early." Mrs. Peng said.

Everyone quickly responded and sat down to eat.

Tomorrow, Princess Gongqing invites them to enjoy the lotus. It is said to be a lotus appreciation, but it is actually a blind date party. The ladies of each family will go with their girls of the right age to drink tea, eat snacks, enjoy the flowers, chat, and take the opportunity to take care of their sons and grandsons.

See if there is a suitable girl.

"From the second child's family, wait for Ruyu to come back and ask her about her situation. Tomorrow morning, prepare some gifts and go to the Suipinghou Mansion to visit the patient. Anyway, the banquet is held at noon. You can go to the Suipinghou Mansion before going to the banquet.

Not too late." Mrs. Peng said again.

Mrs. Peng Er quickly stood up and responded.

The same situation occurred in the family of Zhao Ruyu's younger sister, Zhao Ruzhu, and in the Zhao Wenyun family of Zhao Yuanxun's concubine sister, who married into a juren family.

Whether it is Zhao Ruzhu or Zhao Wenyun, their husband's family may not be a wealthy family, but it is not a wealthy family with no foundation. Even if they are not officials for generations, they are from scholarly families, and there are many aunts and sisters-in-law in the family. Because of the different classes, they are in different places.

The circle is different.

The women in the inner house are bored, and it is not easy to get such a gossip, which is related to the family tradition of poor officials. It is the favorite topic of women from aristocratic families. The next day, the women of the Peng family went to a banquet, and several other women rushed to the door, but

In one day, almost everyone in the capital knew about it.

At first, everyone only heard this matter as gossip, had doubts in their hearts, and did not dare to believe that it was true.

But when those people who were related to or had a close relationship with the Suiping Hou Mansion went to the Hou Mansion to visit the patient, Wei went to the old lady's courtyard to search for her aunt, and found out that the old lady had suffered a stroke due to anger.

Hammered.

The court has never been a peaceful place, with various factions fighting to the death. Wei Qiu was promoted very quickly, which naturally offended the interests of some people. After all, there was a carrot and a hole. He occupied the fourth rank, and the third rank had to squeeze others.

Go down.

Originally, Duke Wei had arranged for someone to take action, but before their group came out, a censor came out to impeach Wei Qiu, saying that he was not strict in running the family and was not upright, so he allowed a daughter to be so domineering. There is a daughter.

In this way, I still don’t know how his children and grandchildren behave so unscrupulously.

The reason why Wei Qiu is said to be good at sneaking around is because he is particularly good at sneaking into the doors of powerful people. He is very discerning and knows who to curry favor with. He is also very good at talking and flattering. He was promoted very quickly, not only among the three

The prince's group strongly recommended him because the emperor liked his flattery.

If the emperor disliked Wei Qiu, he could find a reason to demote him even if he had no fault. But if he liked Wei Qiu, the impeachment of the censors would not matter - in the emperor's view, this was not a big deal.

Although Mrs. Wei is the daughter of Wei Qiu, she has been married to the Suiping Marquis Mansion for more than ten years. The Suiping Marquis Mansion must be responsible for her words and deeds, right?

But it is a matter of filial piety. If Wei does not reprimand him for his behavior, then he, the emperor, may be the one being criticized. When this matter reaches the ears of the Queen Mother, she may not be able to reprimand him.
