My whole family abuses me? Then I will abuse the whole family!

Wen Jing said calmly, "He doesn't like me and is deliberately making things difficult for me."

[Hahaha, not bad, not bad, there is progress]

The people in the yard were already accustomed to the old man's hot temper, and almost everyone present had been scolded by him.

The modern girl's face darkened instantly as Lin Zhen said, but she didn't dare to talk back. She said aggrievedly, "I know, Grandpa. I will study hard."

But in my heart I hated Wen Jing.

Seeing that she had a good attitude, Old Master Fang didn't scold her any more. He glared at Fang Yanling again and said, "What are you still standing there for? Come with me to the ancestral hall!" After that, he stood up and walked towards the ancestral hall.

Fang Yanling was extremely reluctant, cursing in his heart, but resigned himself to following.

The modern girl glared at Wen Jing, then turned and walked towards the west wing.

As soon as the three of them left, a discussion began in the yard.

Many people came up to question him.

On the left is the second concubine's cousin, on the right is the third concubine's cousin, in front is the fourth concubine's junior brother, and behind is the eldest wife's cousin.

They tried to get close to her by talking at once, questioning her about everything from her eighteen generations of ancestors to her ex-husband and stepsons, and they did so in the most tactful way possible.

Wenjing acted very well-behaved and innocent, and told everyone she knew.

After these people questioned her, they lost interest in her.

I labeled her in my mind as someone who is easy to control.

But some of the people who were listening became alert.

He is very scheming at such a young age.

Fang Yanxin is usually very aloof in the Fang family and doesn't like to chat much with these relatives. At most, he would say hello politely and then stop talking.

When the relatives stopped asking Wen Jing anything, he took Wen Jing and Xu Ye and walked slowly to the west side of the courtyard, introducing the history and layout of the Fang family mansion, and which courtyards belonged to which family.

The Fang Family Mansion was built in the Qing Dynasty and has a history of more than one hundred years. The overall layout is a five-courtyard building with east-west cross courtyards on both sides, covering a very large area.

Many rooms are empty now. Wen Jing stretched her neck and looked in through the window. There was not much furniture inside. Even if there was, it was covered with cloth. It was foggy and it seemed that a lot of dust had accumulated.

Fang Yanxin could see what she was thinking, "Now the only ones living here are my grandfather and the four grandmothers. The others don't want to come back and all live outside."

Xu Ye snorted coldly, "This place looks gloomy, only ghosts would be willing to live here."

If other people said this, it would be nothing and just a joke, but it had a different meaning when it came from Xu Ye's mouth.

Fang Yanxin was silent and said nothing.

Wen Jing felt a strange chill down her spine. "Lin Zhen... is it true?"

[Well, these are not ghosts, they are grievances, most of which are women’s grievances]

[It’s always like this in a big house]

Wen Jing looked up at the sky for some reason. The sky was a neat square.

"Isn't it depressing to live here?"

Fang Yanxin hummed, "After the house was renovated, I came back to live here. I had nightmares every day and got sick with a fever." He looked at Xu Ye again, smiling, "Do you think those things are causing trouble?"

Xu Ye looked at him seriously and said, "Of course not. There is a female ghost lying behind you. She is licking your face with her long tongue. The saliva is green and sticky like snot. It is all over your mouth. Eh... It looks disgusting."

Lin Zhen took a look and saw nothing behind Fang Yanxin.

【childish】

Wen Jing smiled.

Fang Yanxin knew clearly that Xu Ye was trying to scare him, but when he heard his serious description, the smile on his face froze for a moment. The next moment, he calmly took out a talisman and patted it on his shoulder.

When Xu Ye saw the talisman in his hand, his eyes lit up and he reached out to grab it.

Fang Yanxin took the talisman back, looked disdainful, and walked away quickly.

Xu Ye was so angry that he didn’t get it, and he gritted his teeth to catch up.

Wen Jing asked curiously, "Where did you get this talisman?"

Fang Yanxin did not hide it, "I asked someone to go to Mount Taixuan to ask for it."

Wen Jing knew what was going on and stopped asking questions.

The three of them walked slowly to the west wing.

Before I even went in, I could already hear the chattering and laughter from inside through the gate.

As soon as I entered, I saw a lot of women and children.

In the center of the yard, an old lady wearing a loose Manchu dress was gathered like stars surrounding the moon. She looked to be in her seventies.

There were three slightly younger older ladies sitting next to them, Aunt Mei was among them. The girl in modern clothes was standing next to one of the older ladies in red.

Several children were standing in front of the four old ladies, and a few women were chatting in groups of three or four in the corridor.

The servants were also women, wearing the same uniform, carrying snacks, refilling tea and pouring water, working in an orderly manner.

It’s just that the excitement is a bit fake, as many people are busy dealing with all kinds of human relationships and family matters.

Beneath the polite greetings there was an undercurrent of calculation.

Even the children were well-behaved and didn't dare to make loud noises. If they were wronged, they could only hold back their tears and cry out when they got home.

Crying is not allowed during the Chinese New Year. This is the rule set by the Fang family.

If you cry in the old house, you will definitely offend the elders and get severely scolded by your parents when you return home.

Fang Yanxin came in with a little girl in pink. The conversation in the yard stopped. Like the people in the main courtyard, she looked Wen Jing up and down.

Wen Jing didn't feel uncomfortable at all and looked up for them to see.

The old lady who was the center of attention looked up slightly, and was stunned for a moment when she saw Xu Ye. She put her reading glasses on her nose and took a closer look. Her expression was a little serious, but she didn't say anything.

In addition to her, there were several young girls from the Fang family who were just beginning to fall in love and also noticed Xu Ye and kept glancing at him.

A middle-aged woman spoke first, "Xiao Xin, are you bringing your girlfriend back?"

Fang Yanxin heard this name for the first time, and her ears turned red. She coughed lightly and introduced them, "Sixth Aunt, these are my junior schoolmates, Wen Jing and Xu Ye."

Then he took Wen Jing over and introduced them one by one, "This is my sixth aunt, this is my great grandmother, and this is..."

She greeted everyone quietly and sweetly, "Hello, auntie, hello, grandma, hello, auntie..."

"Happy New Year, everyone."

Xu Ye also shouted obediently.
