Chapter 278 Mrs. Hou's thoughts
Mrs. Hou listened to the old marquis's words, tears flashed in her eyes. The old marquis told her this, which also showed that the old marquis valued her. She nodded and said, "The master said, I understands that I will treat the girl well, so the marquis can rest assured. It's just that Molan..."
"Do you think everyone wants to enter our house? Girl Lan, you underestimate her. She doesn't have Da Ge in her heart. Even if you go to propose marriage, they won't respond. The old marquis looked at his wife's anxious look and said.
"What? The master is joking, isn't he? How could she not want to marry in Houfu? Marry Da Ge? Not to mention that we are Houfu, Da Geer is also a talented person. I don't know how many boudoirs in this capital are willing to marry Da Geer. How is it possible for the master to say this? The marquis's wife looked surprised and couldn't believe it.
"Lan girl is different from them. You don't have to worry about it. Lan girl has promised her, and the Xue family is no worse than us." The old marquis still told his wife. He didn't want his wife to misunderstand and showed Molan's face.
"Xue family? Is it Ling Yun? Ling Yun's mother is the young lady of our royal palace, although she is a concubine. But Fifth Master Xue did not have an official position, and he did not succumb to her. Mo Lan was also a cousin of our Houfu. Marrying him is also a family. Let Ling Yun marry her as a wife, which is a marquis to compensate Lanzhi. The marquis nodded, and she was quite satisfied with the arrangement.
"It's not Ling Yun, it's Ling Feng." The old marquis lowered his eyes and said.
"What? This is impossible! Although Ling Feng has no official position, he is the brother of the noble concubine's direct relatives. As long as he wants, the noble concubine and the Xue family will definitely let him enter the court as an official. At that time, he can't marry everyone's boudoir. How can he marry Lanlan? Is it a concubine? Or did you force the marquis to marry him? Lord, I wanted to tell Yan Xue to Ling Feng at the beginning. You don't agree. How can you do such a thing for your sister now? You can't fall out with the Xue family just because you want to compensate your sister. Mrs. Hou was shocked and persuaded the old marquis.
"What are you talking about? What do you mean by forcing me to marry? It's really more and more ridiculous. Before I found the girl, Ling Feng had already made a deal with girl Lan. What's the matter with me? Is Ling Feng the kind of child that he can respond if you force him? The more you talk about it, the more untimely it is. The old marquis sank his face, and anger flashed in his eyes.
"Isn't the marquis forced to marry? I don't believe that girl is so capable? Her color is good, but she is not stunning. Does Ling Feng like her? Mrs. Hou couldn't believe it.
Before the old marquis could speak again, Mrs. Hou continued to say, "Marquis. My concubine thought that since Ling Feng was willing to marry Molan, Yanyu, the sixth sister in our house, was also old. It's better to let her marry Feng'er as a wife. Yanyu is the eldest daughter of our Hou family. It's a serious lady, which is also a compensation for the wind. We can also go further with the imperial concubine.
Mrs. Hou had a small calculation in her heart. It turned out that she was optimistic about Xue Lingfeng and wanted to give him the second granddaughter of her direct relatives, but he did not respond. Now that he has responded to Molan, he gave his own little granddaughter to her as a wife. I don't think he will refuse, so that the Hou family can be more closely with the noble concubine. The wealth of the Hou family makes it more stable.
"You gave up these ideas for me. Feng'er has agreed to the girl Lan. She doesn't marry a wife or a concubine. Don't be a room girl, don't worry too much. You can't say much to the noble concubine. In case of making trouble, you don't understand what's going on in court. I can tell you. If this is a bad thing because of your own decision, I can't forgive you. The old marquis said it seriously with a calm face.
"Yes, my concubine knows." The marquis hurriedly answered. She has been for so many years. She has always been loved by the marquis because she is not only in the main room. I am also very measured. No matter what, as long as the marquis speaks to her seriously, she will not refute it. So over the years, the marquis has been treating her well.
After the marquis developed, he took a concubine in one room. It's much better than others, and he doesn't spoil the concubine's room too much. Everything is dominated by his own wife, and his life is still good. Even the second master also has a two-room concubine. The second sister-in-law often speaks sour words in front of her, and she is jealous when she has time.
The old marquis explained a few more words to Mrs. Hou, and then went to the study. He still had a lot of things to deal with.
After the old marquis left, he left the marquis's wife to meditate alone. It seemed that Molan was not as simple as she thought. Before she recognized her relatives, she actually fell in love with the Xue family. She actually fascinated Xue Lingfeng and let Xue Lingfeng promise her so many impossible conditions. This is jealousy. The Xue family actually agreed. What a strange thing. I really can't underestimate her. Then I still treat them well these days as the marquis said.
Don't talk about the respective thoughts of the people in the house, but say that Wang and Molan went back to Lanyuan.
When it came to the time in the courtyard, Molan felt that the atmosphere was not right. There is only one woman guarding the door.
Molan didn't let the woman's voice, and they walked into the courtyard. The lights were on in Wang's main room, and there were several girls and women standing at the door. Molan frowned. Why did they all gather here?
"Are you sure you didn't hear the wrong message? Did the marquis really give us to the Lanyuan? Shall we be the girl of the country woman?"
A voice came, and the girl behind Wang and Molan were about to move. Molan stopped, but she wanted to hear what they said about their grandparents behind their backs.
"Yes, Miss Qiu Zi, the old slave got the exact news. In the future, we will be from the Lanyuan, and we no longer belong to the Hou family. We can only serve our aunt and Miss Lan.
"Boh, they deserve it too! However, a woman from the countryside and a wild girl are also worthy of my daughter. I am the person next to the second lady, and they don't see if they have that life.
"Qiu Zi, in any case, they are masters, and they can't talk about the master's right and wrong behind his back." This is Mrs. Yu's voice.
"Hmm! Master, in less than a few days, I will also be the master, the master of the marquis's house, how can she be compared to a poor woman? Qiu Zi hummed disdainfully.
Molan was still listening, but suddenly heard a cough. Then she saw the maid at the door kneeling down and salute Wang and herself. Obviously, she found them.
Wang did not shout, but walked over. No matter how unwilling the maids kneeled on the ground were, they were unable to resist. They are servants. If they sell their deeds in the hands of the master, they have to listen to the master.
Wang Shi and Mo Lan walked into the house, and Mrs. Yu and Qiu Zi and several second-class maids hurriedly saluted. Wang ignored it, helped Molan sit down, and then let Molan sit down.
The two of them sat down, and Wang looked at the maid who knelt on the ground. She looked at the table, and the teapot and teacup were empty. Qiu Hong was very blind. She hurriedly took the tray and went down to make tea.
"Since you've heard about it, I don't have to repeat it. This kneeling is your re-bowing. I've suffered." When Wang said this, she glanced at the people on the ground, and she didn't go on.
"Yes, the old slave will be the old aunt's person in the future. Everything is at the disposal of the old aunt." Mrs. Yu took the lead in answering.
"Well, since Yu's mother said so, I will also give you a choice. My sister-in-law gave me your deed of sale, which is my sister-in-law's love for me. Lanyuan, I won't make much change. What it used to be like in the future.
I also explained that although the marquis of Lanyuan told me. But I won't be here much in the future, and I won't have much future. You have thought it over. I won't force you to stay if you want to leave. I will give the deed of sale to your original master and let you go back. If you are willing to stay, just stay in Lanyuan. Think about it. You can answer me tomorrow." Wang has lived in the countryside for many years, which is different from the daughter who grew up in the house. She doesn't want people to be unwilling to stay and take care of herself, lest others complain and do bad things. She doesn't want to lose her temper, and she doesn't want to be too embarrassing.
"Are you serious about what your aunt said? Are you really willing to let us go back to our original master? Qiu Zi's eyes flashed and she took the lead in asking. She doesn't want to stay in Lanyuan. She doesn't want to be a country maid. She wants to be with Mrs. Hou. She wants to be an aunt. How can she serve people here!
"What? Do you also question what I said?" Wang's face sank. The anger that was suppressed first rose again. First, she heard the maid's words clearly. She didn't want to have the same insight as her and give her second sister-in-law a little face. How could she know that this girl was so shameful?
"The maidservant didn't dare. The maidservant just wanted to ask clearly, lest the old aunt open her golden mouth. The maidservant said she wanted to go back, but the old aunt repented again. If the old aunt teased the maidservant like this. It's better for the maidservant to stay here and not make a sound. Qiu Zi relied on the fact that she turned out to be the person next to the second lady, and everyone gave her three points. So I despise Wang and Molan from the bottom of my heart. It's also very rude to talk.
Wang put the teacup in her hand heavily on the table. She took a look at Mrs. Yu, and Mrs. Yu was stunned. The aunt was not satisfied and wanted her to teach Qiu Zi a lesson, but she and Qiu Zi had a good relationship. She knew that Qiu Zi was favored by the fifth master Wang Jun and was ready to take over the house.
Qiu Zi came here to be a first-class girl first. After Wang left, she directly asked the second lady to come forward and give it to Wang Jun and let him take over the house. Although Qiu Zi's deed of sale now is in the hands of the old aunt, this is the Hou family, and the marquis's wife and the second lady have the final say. Can you teach Qiu Zi a lesson? If she becomes an aunt and has the power, she won't make trouble for herself. So Mrs. Yu hesitated. She doesn't want to do it.
Mo Lan saw clearly. She saw Qiu Zi's disdainful smile. She didn't say anything, but looked up at the white woman and Mrs. Feng who came back. The two women looked at Molan and looked at them. They were all human spirits, and naturally understood what Molan meant.
