For the harmony within the family, Feng Jin and Feng Jue have received special education since childhood, and they must remember one thing at all times-the eldest brother is the eldest son of the heir clan, and no matter how outstanding the two younger brothers are, they cannot covet things that do not belong to them.
No matter what family it is, the most taboo is brothers fighting.
Instead of giving each child the hope of competition, it is better to let them understand the difference from the beginning.
Therefore, unless there are special circumstances, Feng Jin and Feng Jue rarely compete with Feng Gui for anything.
The difference between the three brothers can be seen from many places, such as getting married.
Feng Gui's wife was carefully selected through layers, not limited to one Dongqing. The complexity and meticulousness of the selection is not so detailed even when the emperor is marrying a wife. The main consideration is the woman's family background, talent, temperament, character, appearance... All conditions must be carefully considered.
For this reason, Feng Gui did not get married until he was 21 years old.
What are the conditions of Feng Jin's wife, Wei Jingxian?
She was born in a Hejian aristocratic family, with a middle-class family background, talented, beautiful and good-tempered. The only two stains were that she had been in a bandit's den and came out safely, and she had been engaged to Liu Xi as a child, but finally regretted the engagement. There are many people with better conditions than Wei Jingxian in Dongqing.
If it weren't for Liu She's matchmaking, Wei Jingxian would not have been able to become the second wife of Feng.
Feng Jin has no intention of competing with Feng Gui, and Wei Jingxian is not qualified for the position of Feng's clan wife in all aspects.
It can be said that it is impossible for the couple to have a conflict of interest with Feng Gui and his wife.
Feng Jin really couldn't understand why his eldest sister-in-law showed such malicious eyes to Changsheng, and she didn't know how to cover it up?
Feng Jin is a foreign man, it is not suitable to inquire about the gossip of the eldest sister-in-law, so he can only let his wife come out and gossip.
Just kidding, a clan wife who has malicious intentions towards Changsheng, how can Feng Jin feel at ease?
Wei Jingxian and her mother-in-law went to the back hall to rest, while Feng Jin and Feng Ren talked in the main hall.
The father and son had not seen each other for several years, so they had a lot to say.
Wei Jingxian was teasing Changsheng while talking to her mother-in-law about trivial matters in the backyard. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking and laughing, and there was a funny Changsheng in the middle. The atmosphere was quite harmonious until Feng Jin's eldest sister-in-law brought her two sons to pay respects to Madam Feng.
The atmosphere was a little stagnant.
Compared with Feng Gui's broad and upright temperament, his two sons were a little stunned, looking a little timid and petty.
She had only met this sister-in-law two or three times and didn't know her well, but she had heard about the background of this eldest sister-in-law and felt that she was a little strange.
Madam Feng, who was smiling before, kept a stiff smile throughout the whole process in the face of her eldest daughter-in-law who was deliberately trying to please her, and the atmosphere was awkward for a while.
Feng Gui's wife was also unhappy. She said something in a hurry and left with her two sons swayingly.
The cold factor finally left, Wei Jingxian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through her mind, and she opened her eyes wide in surprise.
Swaying posture?
The upbringing of noble ladies is naturally strict, and there are a set of rules for sitting, standing and walking.
You must not be impolite in every word and action. Although it is not rigid, it is not so frivolous, right?
Looking at the twisting posture of the eldest sister-in-law, Wei Jingxian's expression is a little cracked.
Madam Feng sighed and whispered, "Finally, she is gone."
"Mother, the eldest sister-in-law was not like this before..."
Madam Feng said, "You have been married for a short time. How many times have you met her?"
Wei Jingxian thought that her mother-in-law didn't like her talking too much, so she swallowed the words in her stomach.
Madam Feng said again, "I thought she was a good person, but I didn't expect her to be like this... Anyway, Jingxian, don't learn her behavior."
Wei Jingxian responded, "I know, mother."
Madam Feng opened the chatterbox and talked about the things in the family over the years, which made Wei Jingxian's face worse.
After a while——
"... Did my uncle just tolerate it?" she said.
Madam Feng frowned, "What else can I do? After all, I married her in a formal way, so I can't just divorce her. I'm thinking about educating her well... Tsk, I don't know how Mrs. Du raised her daughter. She's so petty, and she dares to call herself a lady from a noble family."
Feng Gui's wife, Mrs. Feng Du, was born in the Du family, a great family in Zhongzhao. She was the fifth child in the family, and the eldest daughter of the Du family was the queen of Zhongzhao.
Madam Feng picked and chose the fifth daughter of the Du family.
Zhongzhao and Dongqing are too far apart, and Mrs. Feng couldn't see her future daughter-in-law in person. However, the information conveyed by all parties showed that Mrs. Feng Du had a good reputation, and her family background, talent, appearance, cultivation, character... were impeccable in all aspects.
It took nearly two years for the two families to set the wedding date and actually hold the wedding.
Madam Feng had high expectations for this eldest daughter-in-law, and she was disappointed in the end.
Greedy, jealous, power-hungry, talkative, and vicious!
In addition to these, what Mrs. Feng could not tolerate the most was that this person had a serious illness!
Feng Jin returned to his pre-marriage courtyard to live, and his wife came over with Changsheng in her arms, surrounded by servants.
The couple was whispering in the room, and Feng Jin overheard it, his expression cracked.
"Sister-in-law has a serious illness?"
How is this possible?
A noblewoman with a serious illness could never be included in the mother's list of clan wives.
Wei Jingxian rolled her eyes in annoyance and said, "Don't you find that sister-in-law's walking posture is a little... frivolous?"
Feng Jin bit her earlobe righteously, "Jingxian, you've already said sister-in-law, can I, as her second uncle, stare at her?"
"Don't be serious!" Wei Jingxian felt uncomfortable, holding Changsheng and sitting further away, "According to mother, my sister-in-law broke her foot."
Feng Jin frowned, "Innate?"
"How is that possible? It's the day after tomorrow." Wei Jingxian said.
"The day after tomorrow? Are the servants at home so careless?"
When Feng Jin was a child, she fell and broke her tooth, and the servant girl who served her was often punished.
Wei Jingxian sighed and tugged at the braids on Changsheng's head, "It's acquired, but it's not an accident but man-made."
Feng Jin's cheeks twitched. Did he break his leg artificially?
"My eldest sister-in-law is from the famous Du family in Zhongzhao. She has a sister-in-law who is the empress of Zhongzhao."
Feng Jin said, "I know about this."
Wei Jingxian emphasized angrily, "The one who wrote the Four Books on Women, educated women all over the world, and claimed to be a model."
Hearing the words "Four Books for Women", Feng Jin suddenly became nervous.
"This, this... is such a coincidence..." Feng Jin said sarcastically.
Wei Jingxian said, "The decline of the Du family in the past few years was all due to this queen's support of her natal family. The Four Books on Women written by her were highly praised by the great scholars, and she gradually became known as the virtuous empress as a model for women. The Du family's reputation in Zhongzhao further improved. Mrs. Du uses the queen as a model to educate the women in her clan. Guess what... the queen has a habit of binding her feet, and her feet are no bigger than an adult's hand. They are very beautiful..."
Feng Jin's face turned red, "I just said that my husband was immoral, why are you saying such nonsense..."
Wei Jingxian sneered and said, "The dirty will see the dirty, how dare you say that you didn't think about anything that shouldn't be thought about? When our sister-in-law was fifteen or sixteen years old, in order to imitate the virtuous queen, her feet were also... now she walks It’s inconvenient, and my temperament is getting darker and meaner..."
These words were not what Wei Jingxian meant, her mother-in-law said them herself.
