Feng Jin felt absurd after hearing this, "When my sister-in-law was fifteen or sixteen years old... But at this age, her feet have almost grown. If she wanted to force a child, wouldn't she break her leg bones... Such absurd things, why didn't the matchmaker mention it?"

If I had known that Feng Gui's wife was such a character, not to mention the Feng family, no small aristocratic family in Dongqing would marry her.

Thinking of the two nephews he saw not long ago, Feng Jin felt bad.

However, Feng Du's conditions were indeed very good in Zhongzhao, but the national conditions of Zhongzhao and Dongqing were different.

Wei Jingxian sighed and narrated slowly, "Zhongzhao was fine a few years ago. The world was peaceful, the rivers and seas were calm, and the nobles and common people all took luxury as the fashion. This Queen Du was born a beauty, proficient in singing and dancing, with a slim body, and a light dance like a flying swallow and a phoenix. She could do palm dance and flying dance, which attracted many noble ladies to imitate. This matter was spread to the singing and dancing school, and the dancers imitated the dance, but it was difficult to do such a stunning dance because of her big feet and heavy weight. It is said that the queen has a pair of snow-white feet with three inches of extra weight, so she can dance like this..."

The queen's feet are natural, slender, symmetrical and beautiful. A palm dance to congratulate the emperor on his birthday. At that time, the atmosphere in Zhongzhao was open and advocated luxury, so it naturally became a fashion. The singing and dancing school learned it, and it was very lively.

Feng Gui's wife, Feng Du, was the fifth child in the family. Although she was not neglected, she was not very favored.

For the sake of status and future glory, she followed her elder sister everywhere, and the so-called foot-binding was also for this reason.

When this matter spread out, people outside did not say that Feng Dushi learned to act like a dancer, but praised her for her virtuous queen style. For a time, her reputation rose... To put it bluntly, Feng Dushi stepped on her sister, the queen, to rise to the top, and her status among the noble ladies of Zhongzhao rose.

However, this is the trend in Zhongzhao, and the Dongqing gentry will not buy it.

Especially for a noble family like the Feng family, how can they tolerate the "acquired disease" of the clan wife?

Although they don't understand heredity or eugenics, they also know that only when the parents are good can the children born become better and better.

Choosing a woman with a broken foot and a serious disease to be the clan wife of the Feng family feels like eating a fly.

But according to Feng Gui's personality, he would not be so cruel as to divorce his legitimate wife for this reason, after all, they still have two sons.

As the saying goes, choosing a bad husband ruins your life, marrying an unvirtuous wife ruins three generations.

With such a "greedy, jealous, power-hungry, talkative, and vicious" clan wife, Feng Jin dared not imagine what would happen to the current and next generations of the Feng family. His eldest brother was too wronged.

Feng Jin frowned with a headache. No matter from which aspect, Feng Dushi was not qualified to be the clan wife of the Feng family.

With such a clan wife, the current generation of the Feng family was okay, but the next generation might be in trouble.

"Although this is the case...but with my eldest brother's temper, he always values ​​responsibility, I'm afraid he won't divorce his wife easily."

Rationally speaking, Feng Jin didn't mind changing a sister-in-law, but that was the couple's business. Feng Dushi hadn't done anything out of the ordinary at the moment. At most, she was greedy, jealous, power-hungry, and talkative... maybe she could be turned around if she was carefully corrected?

Feng Gui planned to wait and see. He didn't ask for a good wife, but at least she had to reach the level of a normal noble woman. He didn't ask for much else.

Madam Feng planned to take her two grandsons to her side and educate them well, so as to avoid being harmed by this unreasonable mother.

As for this eldest daughter-in-law, she would teach her as much as she could.

After all, Madam Feng was already the grandmother of three grandchildren, and she couldn't always manage the Feng family's household affairs. She had to let the eldest daughter-in-law take over.

Wei Jingxian sneered, "I have finally understood. Which of the daughters of Zhongzhao Du's family is good? First, the eldest daughter of Du's family entered the palace as the queen, clamoring to educate the women of the world, writing the Four Books for Women, and letting the great Confucian scholars sing, earning the reputation of a virtuous queen, but how many good daughters' lives were ruined? Now there is another eldest daughter of Du's family who, for the sake of reputation, follows the example of the virtuous queen and binds her feet. It's simply a nest of snakes and rats!"

If this Feng Du family hadn't imitated the style of the virtuous queen in everything, how could she have such a reputation and be chosen to become Feng Gui's wife?

Feng Jin was silent, and he silently pulled the braid on Changsheng's head.

Changsheng frowned, and wanted to bite the hand holding Feng Jin.

His wife criticized his eldest sister-in-law. As the husband of the former and the second uncle of the latter, it was difficult for Feng Jin to intervene in this topic.

He said indifferently, "Even so, I still think it's too absurd."

If he had bound his feet when he was young, his bones would be softer, and he could still believe it.

At the age of fifteen or sixteen, he was still cruel to himself. How determined and cruel must he be?

He was so cruel to himself, let alone others?

The more he thought about it, the more frightened Feng Jin was.

Wei Jingxian also said, "I always feel that my uncle has been wronged..."

It's easy to get married, but it's not easy to divorce your wife. Cherish her as you live with her.

That night, Feng Jin brought Changsheng, who was dressed as a little red man, and his wife to the family dinner.

Because Feng Gui had reminded him, Feng Jin tactfully did not mention official business, but just talked about interesting things in his childhood.

Feng Du sat beside Feng Gui with a gloomy face, and her sinister eyes swept over the smiling and blessed Changsheng from time to time.

As a clan wife, she gave birth to two legitimate sons for the Feng family in three years. Her mother-in-law had never hugged her son so affectionately. Instead, she smiled at the money-losers of the Feng Jin family, as if they were a family. This Such a gap makes Feng Dushi extremely unbalanced.

She didn't reflect on it, every time Mrs. Feng wanted to get close to her grandson, who stood in the way and was on guard against her serious mother-in-law?

When it comes to gifts for grandchildren, Feng Gui's two sons have taken full advantage.

Mrs. Feng only gave Changsheng a string of Buddhist beads and smiled more at her, which aroused so much jealousy and hatred.

Realizing Feng Du's emotional changes, Feng Gui's expression was also complicated, angry, angry and a little weak.

Feng Gui specifically told Feng Jin that business should not be discussed during the family dinner, but Feng Du was a pig teammate.

After drinking for three rounds, Feng Du said suddenly, "Second uncle is now accompanying the traitor Liu, what's wrong? You are not afraid of hurting the whole family."

Feng Gui clenched her fists with patience, her face turned pale.

Feng Jin said, "Master Jin, how could you ever be a traitor? My sister-in-law's words are heartbreaking."

Feng Du said strangely, "The royal family of Dongqing is the orthodox one, and the Liu family is just a noble family in Hejian. They can't make waves in Dongqing. But everyone has his own ambitions. My second uncle longs for the merit of following the dragon. This is human nature." , but we should also keep our eyes open and choose someone who is more reliable. The Dongqing royal family is at its peak. When the outcome is decided in the south, won’t we have time to clean up the north? Is the second uncle going to drag the entire family into trouble?”

orthodox?

Feng Jin scoffed coldly.

From Feng's point of view, these two words are simply a joke.
