Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1715
The girl in pink stared blankly at the girl kneeling in front of her. She didn't know how to persuade her, so she could only bite her pink lips until they turned white, and crystal tears pooled in her bright eyes.

As clear as the rain outside the window...

"Please, go and tell Eighth Uncle, don't let me marry Fang Jun, okay?"

Tears slid down the face of the girl in red like broken beads, and the begging look in her eyes became more and more humble...

In a world where men are superior to women, women are always just men's vassals, and sometimes they are even sold as gifts and reduced to playthings.Even if he wanted to fight against this unfair society and this ruthless family in his heart, he could only kneel down humblely in front of others, throw away all his dignity, and beg pitifully.

Destiny has never been in the hands of women...

Looking at this best friend in front of her who grew up with her since she was a child, she used to eat and sleep at the same table and sleep with her childhood sweethearts, but she never realized that this girl who is as proud as a swan can also kneel down on her noble knees and lower her reserved self. Skull, something in the heart of the pink-clothed girl broke violently like a zither string.

After all, her heart softened and she hesitated, she said softly: "I'll go back and ask my eighth uncle, but I don't know if it will work or not."

When it comes to the family plan, how can she be swayed by a woman?

The girl in red broke through her tears and smiled, nodded vigorously and said: "Yes, yes! The eighth uncle loves you the most, as long as you intercede with him for me to marry, he will definitely agree! Thank you, Shu'er, for your kindness! I'm so nice..."

Yes, it's so kind to you.

But who treats me well?

In the vast sea of ​​people, with drifting backgrounds, the seemingly noble and extraordinary nobles of the past are actually as humble as weeds on the side of the road, let them be trampled on, and no one will take pity on them...

Shu'er understood that the eighth uncle might really dote on her, but when it comes to the family plan, what is a girl?

Today, the girl in front of me was sold as a commodity and became a concubine plaything of the court dignitaries, maybe tomorrow it would be her turn.The root of everything is just that the values ​​of the two people are different. Once the family can obtain enough benefits, the eighth uncle who spoils her and protects her will not hesitate to send her to a stranger's bed...

This is the value of a woman's existence.

sorrow.

even more helpless...

*****
"What did you say?"

The senile eighth uncle Xiao Cen lay on the bed, allowing two beautiful and beautiful maids to open their skirts to hold his feet in their arms, and massage his old, skinny, dry and ugly feet with softness and richness.

Hearing that Shu'er knelt in front of him and said that she would marry Fang's family instead, she was so shocked that she almost lost her breath, and then her anger rose, and she sat up suddenly, kicking the two maids one by one. Rolled to the ground, pointed at Shu'er's nose and cursed: "Are you out of your mind? You are the daughter of my Xiao family, how can you marry someone else as a concubine? You are shameless, but the Xiao family is shameless." What! If this happened for real, my Xiao family will become the laughing stock of the world!"

Shu'er knelt on the ground, her thin back was straight, her delicate face was calm, but she smiled wryly in her heart, as expected...

The eighth uncle's first reaction was the face of the Xiao family, but he never considered whether she would be tortured and made things difficult by the big wife when she became a concubine. In his heart, everything was served by the family.This cannot be said that he is ruthless, because Shu'er knows that if necessary, this nearly hundred-year-old man will not hesitate to sacrifice his own life to protect the family.

This is the bottom line of the aristocratic family. The family has given you everything, and everything you have must be for the family...

Seeing Shu'er's beautiful face expressionless, stubborn like a stone sculpture kneeling there, Xiao Cen's anger subsided, and he said angrily: "It must be that bastard Xiao Mao who tricked you into saying that, right? I knew it, that White-eyed wolf is not a good thing, in order to protect his own daughter, he actually pushed my Xiao family's daughter into the pit of fire! It is simply unforgivable!"

The old man was so angry that he slapped the soft bag with a "bang bang" sound, cursing and foaming all over the place, but he never noticed Shu'er's more and more determined eyes...

"Eighth Uncle, do you really spoil me?"

Shu'er raised her bright eyes, looked straight at Xiao Cen and asked.

Xiao Cen was stunned for a moment, then blew his beard and stared, and said: "What nonsense are you talking about, girl? You are free, your parents are dead, you are lonely and helpless, it is the eighth uncle who raised you by your side, it is better than your own daughter and granddaughter , don’t you know? There are so many gossips in this family that I dote on you, saying that I’m too partial, and you haven’t heard of it! "

These words are not false, for this girl who has the blood of Emperor Jing, Xiao Cen really loves and loves this girl, and protects her everywhere, so that her lonely childhood was not subjected to hesitation and exclusion because of losing her parents.

It's just that no matter how much he likes to be pampered, in Xiao Cen's eyes, it's not as important as the family's interests...

Shu'er took two steps on her knees before she collapsed, stretched out her hand to hug Xiao Cen's leg, raised her beautiful cheeks, her eyes were black and white, and begged softly: "If you really love your granddaughter, then marry me to Fang Jun." ..."

Xiao Cen said decisively: "Stop talking about this matter, absolutely not!"

Then he explained: "You are the daughter of my Xiao family, the blood of Emperor Jing, and your status is extremely noble. How can you marry someone as a concubine? If the current crown prince accepts you as a side concubine, no one else is qualified! Listen to uncle If you don’t, stay at home and learn piano, chess, calligraphy, and calligraphy, and your uncle will definitely find a first-class young talent in the family for you, so that you can have a happy marriage for the rest of your life!”

With Xiao Cen's personality and seniority, it is indeed very rare to be able to say such words at home.

If someone else was so recalcitrant in front of him, he would have picked up the cane on the soft side and hit him on the head long ago...

But Shu'er knew in her heart that these words were just to fool people.

Maybe the eighth uncle really thinks so right now, but once it comes to family interests, there is nothing he can't give up...

She must fight today.

Not only for the best friend who grew up with her and has a personal relationship with her for life, but also for herself.

Rather than being casually married to an old man who is over fifty years old, it is better to marry Fang Jun as a concubine...

"Uncle, Shu'er came to plead today, is it for the sake of the family?"

"Ok?"

Xiao Cen was taken aback, and wondered, "What do you mean?"

Shu'er was still kneeling, her back was straight, her pretty face was dignified and solemn, and she said softly: "Uncle, what kind of character is that Fang Jun? He is one of the nine nobles at such an age, and he can do it by himself alone. It is not an exaggeration to say that you are a generation of outstanding people. Given time, it is almost certain that you will become the head of the Zaifu. Such a person, do you think that marrying a rough-tempered woman in the past will be able to seek more benefits for the family in the future? Is it?"

Fang Jun is indeed outstanding, which is one of the reasons why Shu Er is willing to marry Fang Jun.

A young and promising man always has an extraordinary charm. Even if he has never met, he can infer that he is amazingly talented and more responsible for a man just by relying on his family's arguments.

Xiao Cen remained silent.

What Shu'er said is correct, the Xiao family has seen how fierce Fang Junzhi's methods are, as evidenced by the already annihilated Gu family and Guan Zhongyuan's family.Being able to win the favor of the emperor and make a steady rise in the officialdom, apart from the power of his father Fang Xuanling, his own ability is even more outstanding.

For such a person, it is wishful thinking for the Xiao family to want to marry a woman casually and take it back, and even seek greater benefits for the family in the future...

Seeing Xiao Cen's move, Shu'er made persistent efforts: "If Shu'er marries in the past, it will be different. Fang Jun's wife is Princess Gaoyang. Although she is noble, she is known to be arrogant and domineering. Fang Jun has a strong personality, and the relationship between husband and wife is bound to be strong. Disharmony. Although her concubine, Wu Meiniang, was of extraordinary background, she lost her father since she was a child and was bullied by her elder brother at home. How could he not be favored by Fang Junzhi?"

The more Xiao Cen listened to it, the more he felt it made sense...

Not to mention anything else, just talking about Shu'er's appearance, it's nothing more than to describe it with the phrase "overwhelming country and city", plus Lan Xinhui's quality, intelligence and clarity, which man can not regard it as a treasure?

But it was only for a moment when his mind moved, and he recalled, how could that Fang Jun, He De, actually let Emperor Jing's bloodline, Xiao's daughter-in-law marry him as a concubine?

Immediately waved his hand decisively and said: "No, no, don't mention this matter again, how can my uncle have the heart to let you marry someone else as a concubine? You go back, after you have been busy for a while, your uncle will find a good marriage for you, including You are satisfied."

Shu'er pursed her lips, her eyes were full of disappointment.

Destiny has never been in my hands, even if I marry as a concubine, I can't get my wish...
