Chapter 375 The wind turns straight and there will be a good concubine
In the second room of Wei Guofu and Ruiyuan, Huang leaned against the kang. The cover bell in his hand gently scratched the boiling foam on the soup noodles, and once again looked up at the two maids standing in front of the kang. They were 17 or eight years old, generally tall and short, with thick eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and a peachy cherry mouth. At this time, they were half low and respectful. Standing upright, very true, not enchanting at all. Huang's eyes showed some satisfaction, and then frowned slightly. He measured the two people hesitantly for a while, and then waved his hand to let them retreat to the porch to wait for the order.
Mother Lan saw the two go out, and then came forward with a smile: "They are all children, and an old woman is gone. The elder brother is at the carriage and horse, leading the messenger of the sewing room, and an old man is in the doorman, and there is an older brother, far away in Zhuangzi, Bozhou."
Huang said "Huh" and rushed to the distant case. Mother Lan was understanding and took the upper fan and shook it attentively. Huang took it by herself: "When the Grandpa comes back, please ask him to have a look in person."
Mama Lan sighed: "I haven't seen such a virtuous person as my wife. In the eyes of the old slave, the old lady is not like the parents of those big clans. She has never talked about this matter. The prince will not talk about it. So far, there is no maid in Songtao's courtyard, that is, the third master. For many years, there is only one third lady, and the second lady is Such a birth, and no son was born. In those years, one Aunt Mei and Aunt Chen were quarreling with the second master, and the other was the second lady herself. The old lady did not argue... Aunt Zhang and Aunt Cui were both the room raised by the former wife. You can't get off. After enduring for so many years, Aunt Cui's fox charming son is finally gone. There is no need to add another person.
Huang still scratched the bell and smiled at the corners of her lips: "The old lady is not theoretical, but I can't lose my virtuousness. There is always an aunt Cui, who can at least wait on the master. At present, there is only Zhang. Her yard master can't go there several times a year, and she doesn't choose to wait for her coldly. Isn't it? Second sister-in-brother sister With such an identity, how could she care about the virtuous name, the third brother-in-law? Who let the third master not be happy?
Speaking of this, Huang's eyebrows frowned again: "My sister has a virtuous name before, and even Zhang can tolerate it. I have a little mistake. In the eyes of others, I am not as good as her. Our father-in-law is the most upright and obedient. Even if I spoiled Cui Shi a little at the beginning, when did I lose my face for her? In this way, I still don't feel myself I don't think there is any temperament as a mother-in-law. Isn't it just a maid in the room? Let's wait with her face first, and then look at it's not picky, so let's think about the future.
Mother Lan gave a "tut" and seemed to admire it. Then the Duke of Wei said, "The Duke of the country is called an upright scholar and doctor style. The back house is left to his wife. At present, how many of these nobles can be so obedient as the prince. Anyone who has a favorite concubine around him is more or less biased, but Since the wife is the mistress, she is also such a virtuous person. It's time to mention the son's wife. It's been two years in a blink of an eye, and she doesn't have any good news. It's time for the son to consider adding a room.
Huang took a sip of tea and put the tea cup on: "Yin Niang is the granddaughter-in-law chosen by the old lady herself. The old lady doesn't say anything. How dare I mention this? Mother, don't worry about such idleness."
Mother Lan's lips trembled, and her smile stiffened a little. Huang slightly raised the corners of her eyes and glanced at her: "Zi Zhu's mother found you?"
"I can't hide it from my wife. In terms, Zizhu has been waiting beside the son, and now she is almost the age of marriage. She doesn't want to be a match outside..."
"She doesn't want to? She is a slave, and it's up to her turn to think about it or not? Huang's tone was a little angry.
M Mother Lan's hand in her sleeve trembled, and she squeezed her lips and dared not say more.
Huang turned and calmed down the excitement in his tone, and the corners of his lips were sharp and cold, but he was slow: "I know that M Mother is all for me, but this is not easy. These slaves, even if they are willing to act, are for their own interests. Although Zizhu flatter us, it's just because of delusion. When they are really satisfied. She still respects the son of the world. Can we control the bridge that sent her across the river? Don't look at Zhongfu in my hands. There is no one who really works.
Mama Lan's expression slowed down. Seeing that Huang Shi leaned his shoulders more and more, there was also a layer of fatigue between his eyebrows. He couldn't help but feel distressed. He half knelt down and stepped on it, loosening his ankles and shin for her: "Mama Song..."
"This person's intention is not small. Even if he wants to use it, he can't trust it. Not to mention wholeheartedly, he has to pay attention to it at all. Her advantage is that some things are not up to me, and she doesn't have to worry about anything."
After saying this, Huang closed his eyes slightly, and a trace of sharpness swept from his eyelids to the palm of Mother Lan's movement on her path.
Only then did Mother Lan feel that the mistake she made today had not been exposed. As soon as her wrist hung, she moved her knees from her feet and knelt down, and then crawled down and said, "I know my sins. I shouldn't pay attention to Zizhu, let alone accept their gifts without authorization." Then he handed out the two satins and a jar of good wine given by Zi Zhu Niang. Seeing that Huang's expression was still unhesitant, his heart tightened and he took off a jasper bracelet from his wrist.
Huang really eased a little. Of course, he didn't take the bracelet, but only moved his ankle: "Take this thing to Yin Niang tomorrow and let Zizhu know her."
Only then did Mother Lan wake up realize that the lady is going to give kindness to the son and wife, but this matter is not as simple as it seems. Zi Zhu is a child and a first-class maid. If the son's wife sends her out and offends her, she will not only have a reputation among the servants. Although it is Zizhu's fault, but There are not so many gossips that are not clear.
Mother Lan was simply ashamed of her mind and tasted Huang's comments on Mother Song, reminding herself that she had to wake up in the future and couldn't take it for granted.
As long as the old lady is in this house for a day, the Duke's wife must be careful, not to mention these maidservants.
Alas, who let his wife be a concubine, and most of his family members are not strong. Only one second master is considerate. Unfortunately, he is just a concubine. He wants to act before that year, but he doesn't have so many taboos. It's not only his mother's family, but also the lady is not self-defense.
M Mother Lan just responded and got a sign to get up from the ground. The peony leaves on the brocade curtain gently swped, and Bai Lu reported that the prince came back. Huang looked at the sky in surprise and made sure that the setting sun had not retreated from the window frame. He hurried down from the kang and couldn't help muttering in his heart that it was not Xiu Mu today, even if the Beijing Wei government gate was empty. Leisurely, the prince will not go back to his inner house so soon. He is a loyal minister who is devoted to government affairs. Does he feel uncomfortable?
In doubt, he had heard a series of greetings from outside. Duke Wei walked in with his hands and stood still in the room. The two maids stepped forward to untie their official uniforms, put on a loose straight-sleeved robe, took over the tea handed over by Huang and drank half a cup. He heard that his virtuous wife was going to add it for him. The maid quietly fell down. Seeing Huang turning around, she was about to ask Mother Lan to call the two maids to come in, and then she stopped her.
Huang was slightly stunned, with a gentle smile on his face, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were extremely soft: "Your Majesty, if you want to take care of the housework, you will inevitably be negligent, or..."
"Cui's former maid, named Ji Xue, I think she is a docile person. Let her share her worries first." Duke Wei seemed unintentionally and casually mentioned it.
Mama Lan trembled with surprise. The prince never refuted his wife's words about the affairs in this room. This time... Cui was indeed a scourge. Everyone died and added a block to his wife. He glanced at Huang nervously and subconsciously squeezed his lips. Obviously, Huang didn't expect it. Her smile trembled dangerously in the corners of her eyes and stabilized very quickly. She still looked respectfully: "I can save myself." There were some mixed flavors in my heart, and the room was cold.
Duke Wei suddenly said, "Sometimes, a staff member also mentioned to me that he had a daughter... Originally, he had promised him, but he had not yet passed the door. Because the other party suddenly got a chance to enter the official, he looked down on a woman from a poor family and withdrew from the marriage. In this way, it was difficult to find a suitable person after years. It's past 20. According to him, he is gentle and talented. It's extremely safe. My wife takes time to meet people. If it's really good, ask her mother what she is.
If the snow incident has been calculated beyond Huang's expectation, Duke Wei immediately mentioned that this matter was even more like a five-thunderstorm.
What do you mean? This is to take a good concubine!
It is not too much to talk about the origin of a family like the Duke of the State and the Duke of Wei. Originally, there were two good concubines around her, but Wan Niang was so virtuous that she did not develop in this direction. The Duke of Wei suddenly mentioned this matter... Even if it was Huang's family, the hand in his sleeve suddenly clenched, and her smile hung up a little. When he heard that Duke Wei mentioned the name of his staff, he knew that he had made up his mind early in the morning.
Huang's hard work to make a sound, and there is already a faint tide in the bottom of his eyes.
The Duke of Wei stood up, stroked his open robe, raised his feet and walked out, and then said, "I'm going to Jin Guiyuan. I'll stay there for dinner today. I won't bother you."
Jin Guiyuan is Zhang's territory!
As the curtain was lifted and fell, it fell into a dead silence.
Mother Lan looked at her, and the maid quietly withdrew with relief. Huang still stiffened and stood in the light and shadow of the setting sun. The smile on her face was completely gone. Mother Lan hesitated for a moment. She didn't know whether to comfort or complain. She only felt that her feet were sweating, and her forehead was wet and hot. Half a sound, Huang Shi snorted coldly: "What a Zhang, this time I can calm down."
Bai Lu reported last night that Aunt Zhang's maid blocked Duke Wei on the road a few days earlier and invited people to Jin Guiyuan.
Huang thought that Aunt Zhang must have heard something that day, so she spoke in front of Duke Wei! It's ridiculous that I also took advantage of Huang Jiangyue, but this time I didn't say anything! She was shocked and afraid. She lost her strength for a moment. Her body shook, and her whole body fell softly on the kang. Mother Lan was shocked and did not hesitate. She stepped forward and advised her tightly: "Even if Aunt Zhang touched her lips and tongue, she used to be anyone. How could she believe it? Maybe she was just a little doubt in her heart. I thought that the prince only I'm afraid that I will be moved by the bitch at the outside end, so I took advantage of this... Things will turn around. Don't panic, madam."
Huang gasped fiercely and held the kang a few times before calming himself down. After all, there was a cold in his eyes and said decisively, "Give me to go down, first raise Ji Xue's monthly money, and arrange two little maids to call her. As for the one outside, ask what it is."
He also said that Su Xing returned home from Lingxiaoge this day and wandered alone on the edge of the mirror pool for a long time before returning to Songtao Garden.
Dong Yin was looking at several books. When he heard that the prince had come back, he asked people to pack up. In front of the curtain, he untied Su Ying's coat clothes with his own hands, changed into a light gauze robe, and sat next to him with a fan. Seeing Su Xun half tilted on the kang and stared at her with considerable eyes, Dong Yin was puzzled. He stroked his cheek and muttered in his heart, was his face stained with ink just now?
"I haven't asked you these days. Are those two things still good?" Su Xing said lazily and still looked at Dong Yin with inexplicable eyes.
"Everything has a mother..." Dong Yin didn't say anything, but when he saw the half-sleeping man suddenly turn over, he felt heavy. He subconsciously leaned back and put his slender waist against the bed, and the fan in his hand was snatched over and knocked on his forehead lightly.
Su Xun's slightly sweaty nose forced Dong Yin's slightly upturned nose: "It's perfunctory me. If it hadn't been for the reminder of my fifth sister today, my heart would have been hanging for you."
Dong Yin's soft eyelashes flashed and didn't know how to answer for a moment. He finally opened his mouth, but was blocked by his lips and tongue. Dong Yin panicked. There was still a maid standing in the porch, and someone was about to make tea...
Sure enough, after hearing an exclamation, Dong Yin subconsciously pushed hard, and his face was burning. He looked at the purple Zhu holding the tea cup in his hand, which was neither advanced nor retreating, and stared at Su Zhen fiercely.
"Put down and get out." Su Xing simply ordered, took Dong Yin's hand and went in.
What evil is this son of today? Dong Yin wanted to cry without tears.
Unexpectedly, Su Xing closed the door, but changed a pair of colors, and his eyebrows sank: "No one dares to disturb me anymore. You should remember what I said today!"
