Chapter 478 Honest people can't marry a handsome daughter-in-law
Zhu Changshun is Zhu Changping's cousin. Although he is not a direct cousin, there are only two branches of the Zhu family in Ningxia Town. Therefore, after Zhu Zhen came out of the Qingwang Palace, he begged the old prince to bring Zhu Changshun, whose parents died, into the palace for an errand.
Zhu Changshun is silent and diligent, and has a good reputation in the palace. In addition, Zhu Zhen is in the position of housekeeper. Soon after, he was taken by the old prince as a close attendant and became the prince's personal attendant, and his status in the servants of the Qingwang Mansion is not low.
However, after the death of the old prince, Zhu Changshun's career also reached its peak. Originally, he could be a personal servant of the little prince, but after Prince Anhua entered the Qing Palace, the little prince's side was replaced by the servants of the Anhua Palace in Qingyang, and Zhu Chang could only become a handyman by the way. However, he is very gentle and still smiles all day long. Others regret him, but he doesn't care at all.
Zhu Zhen committed suicide and died. Zhu Changshun was very sad. He took a leave to help his cousin Zhu Changping deal with his uncle's funeral. Yesterday, he was busy all day and was exhausted. In addition, it snowed heavily, so he simply didn't get up in the morning. Lunch was served on wooden plates and sent to the head of the bed for him to eat. After eating, he was white eyes and scolded in the Hun family. He fell asleep with his head covered in the sound.
The sky is gloomy and the snow keeps falling.
Zhu Changshun's wife Wan Shi sat at home boredly, looking at the heavy snow outside the half-covered door in a daze. Wan was originally a brothel woman in Lingzhou. Later, she was redeemed as a concubine by a rich businessman in Lingzhou. Unfortunately, after the rich businessman died of illness, the eldest woman at home drove her out of the house. She had no skills, and Lingzhou couldn't stay, so she planned to come to Ningxia Town to return to her old business. After coming all the way to Ningxia Town, he fell ill and fell on the roadside. He happened to be seen by Zhu Zhen, who took Zhu Changshun out of the royal palace and was taken back to Zhu's house.
After washing and dressing up, she turned out to be a good-looking woman. Zhu Changshun, who was honest, suddenly fell in love with the Wan family. Zhu Zhen also wanted to marry his nephew, so he asked about the origin of Wan's family. Wan was very smart and lied that he was from Shanxi. When the thieves and soldiers were in chaos, they fled here and their parents died in Ningxia Town. Although Zhu Zhen was a little suspicious, he did not think about it. Zhu Changshun was honest and married such a Peerable wife, so he took the lead and married the Wan family as his wife for Zhu Changshun.
Wan is also quite satisfied. His father-in-law Zhu Zhen is the housekeeper of the palace. Her husband is a personal attendant of the prince, and he is also a person of some status. Although Zhu Changshun is a little honest, he has read a lot of people, but he also knows that handsome and lively people may not be reliable.
On the wedding night, Wan stuffed chicken blood into his lower body with fish and stuffed it into his lower body. After the room, he fell a red film and half died. From then on, he took good care of her. Every four or two months of each month was also handed over to Wan for safekeeping, treating Wan as his own aunt. Wan was also very contented at first. After experiencing too much, it was also good to live a stable life with a person. Wan knew that Zhu Changshun would be obedient to him in his life and would never disobey his will.
However, Wan is a woman who has seen the world. She always has a reluctant thought in her heart. She has seen too many princes and grandchildren, and has seen too many luxurious and rich scenes. Now she is in poverty and has to wear cotton clothes, and there is no decent jewelry on her head. The regret is hard to calm down. Every time she goes to the street, looking at the figures of the ladies and eunuchs, Wan will always curse silently to relieve her regret.
After the death of the old prince, Zhu Zhen was neglected in the royal palace, and her husband Zhu Changshun was also reduced to a handyman. The monthly example also changed from four taels to two or three. The dissatisfaction in Wan's heart accumulated even more. He quarreled with Zhu Changshun several times, but Zhu Changshun always smiled and looked like muddy. There is nothing I can do to teach Wan.
In order to supplement the family, Wan had to take the initiative to ask Zhu Zhen to find an errand for her in the royal palace. Zhu Zhen arranged her to cook as a chef in the royal palace. Although there were only two taels a month, at least there was no cost to eat and drink, saving a lot of household use.
Between the carved gallery and painting columns of the royal palace, the devil in Wan's heart began to resurrect. Soon after, Shi Lian, a lecturer of Wei Xue, a regular guest in the royal palace, entered Wan's vision. This handsome and romantic, Shi Liansheng is said to be a celebrity in front of King Anhua, who often comes to cook and order dishes and drinks.
Wan began to rub fat and powder, and used those long-cherished previous means to flirt. Shi Lian was not a modest gentleman. After a while, the two met the firewood and hooked up with each other. The good times did not last long, and all this soon became known to everyone, but everyone couldn't bear to tell him the truth without telling him the truth.
After learning about this, Zhu Zhen regretted not falling. Shi Lian couldn't afford to provoke him, so he could only withdraw Wan from the royal palace. For this reason, Wan didn't know how many times he cursed Zhu Zhen at home. However, although Wan was not in the royal palace, the adultery with Shi Lian's generation has not been broken. When Zhu Changshun went to work in the royal palace, Shi Lian frequently went in and out of his house. The two fell in love with each other, and the oil was good.
It snowed heavily and the weather was very cold. Wan's mind thought about Shi Lian's handsome face and **'s methods, but his body was warm and his body was also very uncomfortable. Listening to Zhu Changshun's purr from the room, Wanshi was extremely disgusted. My husband is not as good as the means and appearance of Shi Lianren. Do you have to follow such a promising person in your life? Zhu Zhen used to be alive and didn't have the courage to do anything. Now that Zhu Zhen is dead, who else in the Zhu family can control himself? Maybe I should discuss it with Shi Lian, and it's always so sneaky.
Wan's mind was in a mess, just like the snow that could be seen in the cracks of the door. The white lantern on the door swinged left and right with the wind, hitting the door lintel and making a monotonous crackling sound, which was even more disturbing. Wan wanted to replace the white lantern on the door lintel with the red lantern in the corner of the house, which was himself and history. The secret code of dating. The red lantern lit, indicating that Zhu Changshun was not at home, and he swept his couch to wait for the handsome man. Zhu Zhen died, and I don't know how long the white lantern would last.
The light in the crack of the door was dim, and the sound of footsteps and words came from the corridor. Wan was shocked: The dead ghost couldn't help looking for himself at this time. The husband was at home for his uncle's funeral. The dead ghost should not know.
"Is your brother at home?" There was a gentle tapping sound from the door, and half a face appeared in the crack of the door.
Wan's face sank. It turned out that Zhu Changping, the son of his uncle's family, came. As soon as he came, he must be about Zhu Zhen's aftermath. He was so annoyed. Isn't it enough to bury him?
Wan reluctantly got up and opened the door behind the door. The dazzling snowlight made his eyes a little uncomfortable for a moment, but the three people standing on the corridor saw it clearly. After Zhu Changping stood two people in sheepskin jackets. They must have come together.
"It turned out to be a little uncle. Your brother is asleep. He was so busy yesterday that he seemed to be a little uncomfortable." Wan was slightly blessed and looked at the two people standing behind Zhu Changping. Both of them covered their faces with black cloth and were shabby. After only looking at them, Wan frowned and didn't want to look.
"So that's it. I'm disturbing my sister-in-law. I'm here to find my brother."
"I'm going to ask your brother to get up." Wan said lightly.
"I dare not work my sister-in-law, sister-in-law, here is ten taels of silver. After my father's death, I left some silver taels. I brought some for my sister-in-law to take care of the family. Please ask my sister-in-law to make some tea, brew a pot of hot tea to warm my friends. The wind and snow is very strong and the cold is terrible." Zhu Changping took out an ingot of ten taels of silver from his sleeve and handed it over.
Wan's eyes suddenly sparkled and he said, "Oh, what is uncle doing? How embarrassing? It will cost a lot of money for you to go to the official study and take the imperial examination. With a gentle touch of his hand, he took the silver in Zhu Changping's hand and quickly put it into his waist.
"But sit down, and the slave family will boil water for you to make tea." Wan said in a pile of voices and went back to boil water in the kitchen behind him.
Zhu Changping looked back at Song Nan and Wang Yong behind him and pointed to the east wing. Song Nan winkled. Zhu Changping was understanding and stepped into the wing room; ** Zhu Changshunye was awakened by the movement outside and was sitting up.
"Brother, it's me." Zhu Changping said.
"It used to be a brother, why are you here now?" Zhu Changshun dressed quickly.
Zhu Changping said, "There is something troublesome, brother. I have two friends who want to ask my brother for help."
Zhu Changshun also saw Song Nan and Wang Yong who came into the room and quickly arched his hand and said, "It's polite. As a friend of my brother, it is natural to help."
Song Nan and Wang Yong came forward to salute. Song Nan took off the black scarf on his face and said, "Brother, I am a bricklayer who specializes in building houses for others. There is a large family on hand who wants to build a big house. They named their names to build according to the regulations of the Qingwang Mansion. I don't know what the Qingwang Mansion is like. I heard that the eldest brother is working in the royal palace, so I want to ask him for a favor.
Zhu Changshun said in astonishment, "How can I help? I can't bring people in. Outsiders are not allowed to enter the palace.
Song Nan said, "You don't need to enter the royal palace, as long as the eldest brother draws the layout of the royal palace."
Zhu Changshun said, "So that's it. It's such a simple matter. Wait a minute. I'll help you draw it immediately."
Song Nan arched his hand and smiled, "It's hard work." After saying that, he took out two ingots of silver from his waist and put them on the table and said, "This is the reward."
Zhu Changshun waved his hand and said, "What's the reward for helping your friends?"
Song Nan smiled and said, "I want what I want."
Zhu Changping also smiled and said, "Brother, take it. They are sincere."
