Brothers and sisters recognize each other

Since the last time she worshipped her parents during the Qingming Festival, Su Fangrong has not been in good spirits and often shed tears. Even when I saw the lotus leaves damaged by the wind and rain, I would recall my brother's hard work when I was young, and I couldn't help crying a few tears.

Until this day came to her birthday, she should have been happy, but she still couldn't be happy.

Early in the morning, the little maid brought two bowls of longevity noodles and a cage of pan-fried buns for breakfast.

This is the old rule of grandma for many years. She has to bring out two bowls of longevity noodles, but grandma doesn't eat it and is willing to eat one of them. The other bowl of longevity noodles and small steamed buns are often taken down intact and given to the people below.

The close girl beside her advised, "Grandma, eat a bowl of noodles as soon as possible. It's time for those wives, ladies and grandmothers to come to celebrate your birthday. At that time, you will only care about greeting guests, and I'm afraid you won't have time to eat.

Su Fangrong said, "You all go out. I want to be alone."

Several maids looked at each other in con'sinuum, but they still dared not disobey the will of the mistress and exit the living room.

Su Fangrong picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of noodles, but still put the chopsticks with disappiness.

Zhao Zhihan, a husband who had always been in poor health, was critically ill. His husband wanted to marry a woman who was innocent and healthy to give birth to her husband.

Although the Zhao family was also a rich family at that time, it was far less beautiful than it is now. People who loved their daughters would not let their daughters be widowed, but those who wanted to sell their daughters looked down on the money taken out by the Zhao family.

However, my mother was ill, and the family couldn't afford to buy soup. At that time, my mother-in-law went to the neighbor's house to see the girl, but she disliked the girl's "big three thick" and didn't like her. What's so thick? It's just that the daughter of a poor family is stronger than a delicate lady. Zhao's mother chose her son's daughter-in-law, which made everyone unhappy. She was afraid that her daughter would marry the Zhao family and be angry with her mother-in-law, and no one wanted to get married.

After thinking for a night, Su Fangrong brazenly found the aunt next door in the west and asked the aunt to go to Zhao's house to kiss herself. In Dayin, how can a girl find a matchmaker to kiss herself? It's a shame to talk about this. The aunt knew her difficulties. Instead of making fun of her, she felt sorry for her and quietly helped her deal with it.

Su's mother originally disagreed, saying that she died of illness and didn't want her daughter's hard-earned money to buy medicine. She had sold a son and could no longer sell her daughter. However, after listening to her daughter's explanation, she had no choice but to agree. If I really die of illness like this, I don't know where my daughter will fall into a lonely situation. The Zhao family is not only rich, but the eldest son Zhao Zhihan actually followed the path of a scholar and has the reputation of a scholar. If he marries the Zhao family and is lucky, Zhao Zhihan's sick and crooked body will gradually improve. His daughter is the eldest and grandmother of Zhao's family's house, and she will have a few children in the future, which will be safe and prosperous for a lifetime. If she is unlucky, Zhao Zhihan will die like this. Although her daughter will be widowed for a lifetime, the Zhao family has to take good care of her and keep her safe for the rest of her life. Since this family has taken the path of a scholar, it can be seen that he doesn't want to be just a businessman. There are many rules for reading, but there are many advantages of rules. If Zhao Zhihan can get better, he will definitely continue to test his reputation. For his own future, even if he does something ridiculous in the future, he will not shake his daughter's position as his wife. If Zhao Zhihan dies, the Zhao family can't let the widowed sister-in-law be treated harshly.

A few days later, Zhao's mother came to visit the small courtyard rented by Fangrong's mother and daughter, saying that she asked Su's mother how to make fried buns, but in fact, she came to see the girl. As a result, she fell in a glance of the quiet and elegant, beautiful appearance, thin waist and buttocks. Su's mother cheered up that day and received Zhao's mother neatly. Zhao's mother saw that both mother and daughter were polite and polite, not as vulgar and shallow as ordinary women. She was very satisfied to hear that Su's father was a teaching scholar before his death. After taking a closer look at the new shoes made by Fangrong for Su's mother, I only felt that the girl was not ordinaryly good, and she was very satisfied with Fangrong. But at the end, he asked again, "What other relatives are there at home?"

Su Fangrong was waiting to answer, but her mother's cough attracted her and Zhao's mother's attention. Su's mother said, "There are only two mothers and daughters in our family, and there are no relatives."

Su's mother's idea is very simple. Su Qinghen has long been sold to nowhere. She dreamed of seeing her son, but she knew that the world was so great that she might never see her son again in her life. The Zhao family pays so much attention to picking their daughters-in-law. If they say that there is a brother who is a slave, maybe this marriage can't be done. Even if it is done, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Fangrong to marry the Zhao family in the future. Why affect the happiness of your daughter for a son you will never see again? Qinghen's child loves his sister the most. Even if he knows Fangrong's difficulties today, he won't blame her.

That's what happened to this marriage. Although Zhao's mother is arrogant and has many rules, she is also strict with her daughter-in-law, but she is not a bad person. After knowing the situation of the Su family, in addition to the obvious bride price, she also gave Su's mother a lot of precious gold, silver, jade jewelry and medicinal materials, which can be regarded as solving the difficulties of the Su family.

The night before the wedding, Su's mother took her daughter and cried for half a night. She came and went with one sentence: "Fang'er, you must be fine in the future, otherwise I really can't be sorry for your brother for you so much."

Su Fangrong also accompanied her mother to shed tears in the middle of the night. Finally, Su's mother was afraid that her daughter's eyes would be too red, swollen and ugly when she got married, so she put a cold compress on Fangrong's eyes and at least persuaded her to fall asleep.

The next day, the neighbors and sisters in the village came to support him. Although Su Fangrong's family was shabby, it looked lively and festive.

In this way, it is a lifelong destination. I don't know whether it was her luck or Zhao Zhihan's luck. Soon after marriage, Zhao Zhihan's health improved day by day. Although he was weaker than ordinary people, he finally became healthy. The old man of the Zhao family is very good at business and has a vicious vision. In a blink of two or three years, Da Yin, who is living in a worse and worse life, actually earned tens of thousands of silver. Master Zhao was not confused by the white money. After discovering that the world was getting worse and worse, he temporarily closed down and sold many paved fields and other industries. The family lived a peaceful and poor life.

My father-in-law said at that time, "When the chaos of these years is over, we will make a comeback!"

Six years ago, Su's mother looked at her happy daughter and passed away with regret for her son.

Now that the world is settled, my father-in-law has begun to take his youngest son to do his old business.

The prosperity of the Zhao family is more and more to highlight that his family is not good and his mother's family is unreliable. No, since my mother died, I have no longer have my mother's family.

When I gave birth to Dongzhe, I hurt my body and it was difficult to regenerate, but my husband's body seems to be day by day. Dongzhe has only had a grandson in the long house for so many years. Her mother-in-law was worried about her husband's children and did not want to lift her aunt from the maid like others, so she chose two nieces from a good family as concubines from her distant relatives. In this way, the children born are also more decent.

Zhao Zhihan is a weak man, but according to his mother's instructions, he dares not disobey at all. She was afraid of committing seven crimes and being afraid of making her mother-in-law unhappy, so she also pretended to be happy and welcomed the two aunts into the door. The Zhao family praised her for her virtuousness and generousness, but they didn't know how many tears she shed secretly.

The two noble concubines are dependent on their mother's family. Although my concubine's mother's family is not a serious relative, anyway, their waist is harder than her. Two aunts are more capable than each other, and now they are also people with children. The only thing she can rely on now is her husband's love. Zhao Zhihan, the two aunts, just occasionally went over to order to deal with his mother-in-law. Such a weak husband still can't make her feel reliable. If one day, Zhao Zhihan doesn't want to listen to his family arrange the imperial examination, or her parents-in-law no longer expect her husband to take the imperial examination, her wife may go to court at any time. Your concubine can be corrected, but the two of them have been restless in plotting the position of their wives. If he really becomes a cousin, Dong Zhe will no longer be the eldest son and grandson of the Zhao family, and will no longer be favored by his parents-in-law.

If it weren't for such a difficult situation, how could she be so scared when she saw her brother that day? The Zhao family has not broken up with their relatives! If this thing spreads and is used by people with intentions, small things will become big things, not to mention that this is not a trivial matter at all!

The heart is entangled into a mess. Su Fangrong's feelings of regret, unwillingness and guilt were intertwined, and suddenly broke out and swept the longevity face in front of her to the ground. The porcelain bowl fell to the ground, and the sound was particularly clear.

A little girl outside hurried in, but instead of cleaning up the broken dishes as Su Fangrong expected, she hurriedly saluted Su Fangrong: "Grandma, the Marquis of Weibei handed over a post as a guest, with a female wife. The uncle has gone out to welcome the guests and asked grandma to prepare to receive the guests.

Marquis of Weibei? Su Qinghen? Thinking of the most familiar name, Su Fangrong was a little worried. But... when did the husband make friends with the Marquis of Weibei?

The Marquis of Weibei is not a traditional noble, but more like a hermit. His various behaviors are more loved by the people than those nobles. There is a lot of talk about his people. Therefore, the Zhao family was curious and surprised by his arrival. I don't know why this Weibeihou, who intended to hide his whereabouts, suddenly came to Zhao's family. It should be noted that the Zhao family can't even reach this famous marquis. Weibeihou only came here in an ordinary carriage. He didn't have any shelf all over his body. Obviously, he was born as a general, but when he stood outside the gate, he was full of Tsinghua, but he did not lose his prestige. His face was extremely handsome, which made him want to peek from the steward's mother to the little girl all the way.

This character suddenly came to see Zhao Zhihan by name, and the long room felt very face-to-faced from top to bottom. It's just... Someone looked at Wei Beihou and suddenly muttered: This face is very similar to that of a big grandma.

The news that Weibeihou looked like a big grandma soon spread in the outer courtyard like wings.

However, Su Qinghen didn't seem to be able to see the self-precating eyes around him. His posture was straight and his eyes were not squinting. He walked leisurely, as if he were visiting his back garden. This made those who speculated that the Marquis of Weibei was scary, powerful and walked with tigers to rest.

When Zhao Zhihan greeted him in person, he was stunned when he saw the face, and then welcomed him to the foreign study.

On the other side, Su Fangrong went to the second gate to welcome the female guests brought by the Marquis of Weibei. She was still muttering that the Zhao family and the Marquis of Weibei had no relationship, and there was no intersection before. Why did she suddenly climb to the door of the Zhao family? Isn't there someone coming to blackmail? However, when she saw the graceful female guests at the second door, her face suddenly lost blood. Isn't this the woman who calls herself "Xiao Yue"?

Xiao Yue came forward and smiled at Su Fangrong and said, "Mr. Zhao, grandma, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Su Fangrong was speechless.

Xiao Yue came forward very familiarly, squeezed away the maid beside Su Fangrong, and held her arm: "Grandma, I went to worship Uncle Su and aunt last Tomb-sweeping Day, but unfortunately I didn't meet you."

Su Fangrong smiled dryly. It turned out to be her, but it was the hat she dropped. But... but if she comes... then... who is the Marquis of Weibei? Isn't it his brother who pretended to be? So, is your brother here too? The dry smile on her face suddenly turned into a surprise: "Are you with my brother..."

Xiao Yue has been carefully watching the change of her face. Seeing her like this, she suddenly felt satisfied. Hearing her say this, she interrupted her and said, "I'm here with the marquis."

Su Fangrong grabbed Xiao Yue's arm hard: "He..." Did he hate me and blame me? Is he in the study outside?

Before she could ask a series of questions, Xiao Yue interrupted her again: "Grandma, we haven't seen each other for so long. Let's catch up. But I have a lot to say to grandma.

What Su Fangrong wanted to say was immediately swallowed back. Xiao Yue has something to remind her so that she won't fall, right? She nodded and tried to squeeze out a smile: "Okay, Miss Xiao, come here."

The reaction of these two fell in the eyes of many servants, causing a lot of speculation for a while.

In the outer study, Zhao Zhihan got up: "Marquis means that you are the twin brother of your son, and you have been separated from your wife for many years. Is this a special visit to recognize your relatives?"

In Su Fangrong's room, all the subordinates have been screened. After listening to Xiao Yue's words, Su Fangrong simply didn't know what to do: "Are you serious? Is he really the Marquis of Weibei, not a person with the same name and surname? Last time, last time..."

"Last time I just lost my husband, Qinghen is like my husband and has a lot of friendship with me. Naturally, he has to escort me home safely. He didn't want to expose his identity and make people guess, and I didn't want to be too troublesome, so we pretended to be the master and servant.

Is that so? Su Fangrong's heart was mixed for a moment, and she only hated that she was blind at that time.

Xiao Yue said again, "Qinghen said that you didn't want to admit that you had his brother before, just push it to the old father and mother. It is said that he had no choice but to be a slave because of his poor family, so his uncle and aunt no longer admitted that he had this son in the family. So... so that you don't have a hard time being! As for the incident in the inn, it should be regarded as if it hasn't happened, and don't mention it to anyone in the future. Qinghen must be explaining to Uncle Zhao like this at this moment. Don't make a leak in the future.

Su Fangrong stood up in shock by Xiao Yue's words, but now she fell back to the couch: "Brother... actually imagined this for me."

Xiao Yue had a slightly soothing smile on her face, gently closed her hands and gently pressed them on Su Fangrong's hand: "We already know the situation of the Zhao family, and we also know your situation. I couldn't blame you all when I was in the inn that day. Qinghen is here to support you today!"

With the Marquis of Weibei as her brother, she no longer climbed into the Zhao family, but married into the Zhao family. No one in the whole family is more noble than her. In this way, she doesn't have to be afraid of anything! My brother came to support her, and even helped her think about how to lie to her family!

In the study, Zhao Zhihan seemed to be still digesting this sudden news. Wei Beihou is actually his brother-in-law? This... is too exaggerated... But looking at Su Qinghen's face, he felt that if the man in front of him was not his brother-in-law, it would indeed be unreasonable.

Su Qinghen said without any airs: "If it hadn't been for the time when he left home, my father would have said that the Su family would never have been a rebellious son like me from now on, and Fangrong would have told you the truth. But at this time, I am no longer a slave. I think if my father knew it, I would have been afraid that the anger would have subsided, so I went around to inquire about my sister's whereabouts. If his wife's boudoir is Su Fangrong, it must be unmistakable. I don't think I'll even admit my mistake."

Zhao Zhihan hurriedly said, "Although the name of the wife can't be casually told to outsiders, it's okay to tell the marquis. Her boudoir name is indeed Su Fangrong, and she looks seven or eight degrees like the marquis. In that case, you are really twin brothers and sisters!"

Su Qinghen said happily, "This is really great! I'm afraid that if I make a mistake, my wife won't say anything, which will tir her reputation. So good, very good!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a familiar female voice outside: "Brother--"

Su Qinghen turned around and saw Su Fangrong rushing over.

Since she married into the Zhao family, Su Fangrong has been abiding by the woman's way. He has walked half a step outside the study, but now she ignores it.

She ran all the way to Su Qinghen, threw herself into his arms, and cried with tears: "Brother... I've been looking forward to your return."

Su Qinghen wanted to comfort her, but found that he had not seen him for many years, and there was a lot of alienation between the brother and sister. Even though he was excited and happy, he did not know how to comfort his sister, and his body was a little stiff for a while.

Su Fangrong suddenly let go of him, straightened his dress, and knelt down on his knees: "Brother, it was my fault last time. Xiao Yue is right. It's me. Last time I was in the inn, I shouldn't have thought you were a slave and didn't recognize you.

Su Qinghen hurried forward to hold her: "What are you talking about? Get up quickly."

"Brother" Su Fangrong raised her tears and looked at Su Qinghen and said solemnly, "Wrong is wrong. I can't let you cover it up for me. If this matter becomes a joke, I will admit it even if I have been laughed at all my life.

Su Qinghen smiled slightly and only felt that his original decision was not wrong, and finally got a good result for both brothers and sisters. The slightly astringent tone went away, and he called out as before, "Fang'er."
