Chapter 192: The aunt who no longer forces her eldest son to make progress
When she heard that her sweet grandson had returned home, Old Mrs. Liu, who had been pestered by the aunts and wives in the Zhou clan all day, finally felt a little more relaxed.
But I couldn't hold her in my arms and love her as usual, and it felt very uncomfortable.
When will these irrelevant people leave?
What this family didn't expect was that after Ji's birthday, the New Year would be celebrated in a few days. We couldn't let these clan leaders come all the way back to celebrate the New Year, right?So it was natural for Song Xia to leave everyone behind.
Song Xia made this taboo birthday very special. As a concubine, Mrs. Liu not only had to wear plain clothes, but also abstain from eating meat and vegetarian food. She read scriptures and chanted Buddha's name for Mrs. Zhou every day.
And she can't be lazy. Every day, Zhou's aunts are watching her rules and scolding her if she does anything wrong.
For many years, since her son inherited the Zhou family, she has been pampering herself, so after all this hard work, she has lost several kilograms and is exhausted.
Also being tortured like her was Liu Fangniang.
Liu Fangniang had to get up early every day to serve Song Xia. She would get up before Song Xia got up. Only when Song Xia went to bed could she go back to her yard.
As the head matron of the house, Song Xia set an example and no one could find any fault with her.
But Liu Fangniang would rather Song Xia was lazy, because if Song Xia wasn't lazy, she wouldn't have a moment to rest.
Seven days after Ji's birthday, Liu Fangniang's already thin body had lost a lot of weight, and her face seemed to be quite withered.
After not being close to the one she loved for many days, she didn't know how much Liu Fangniang would suffer in the future. Zhou Yongli had an opinion, but he couldn't express it clearly, so it was Old Mrs. Liu who made the decision.
This day has passed, and the elders of the Zhou family are all here, so Mrs. Liu takes the opportunity to show off her power.
"Song Xia, do you know your mistake?"
Song Xia was a little stunned. She didn't expect that the old lady would still have the energy to cause trouble for her at this time. But during this time, she took the lead and did it herself. What kind of trouble could she cause?
"Why did my aunt say this?"
Song Xia used to call her mother, but after the Zhou family came, Song Xia only called her aunt.
Old Mrs. Liu's face obviously darkened a lot, and her tone rose: "You still don't know your fault. Although you are the head of the county, Yongli is the head of this family after all. You take Fang Niang to do this and do that all day long. Fang Niang is busy with this and that." Isn't it your fault that my mother has fallen ill and there is no one to take care of Yongli? As a wife, the first thing you should take care of is the master of the palace."
Song Xia suddenly realized that this was the reason!Do you want her to let Liu Fangniang go?
Zhou Shuqing and Zhou Ying both lowered their eyes. This time, my aunt should be able to have a good rest, right?
Song Xia nodded and said, "That's what my aunt is criticizing."
After hearing this, Mrs. Liu looked proudly at the frowning aunts of the Zhou family around her, thinking to herself, aren't you the most disciplined?I am now demanding Song Xia according to the rules, how else can you protect her?She admitted it herself.
"Actually, this county leader has thought about this before."
"What?" Several people gradually had a bad feeling in their hearts.
Just listen to Song Xia continue to say: "Although Lang Jun has two young masters, Yu Ge'er and Shu Ge'er, compared with other families, the heirs are still a little thin, and the county master and Liu Fangniang have nothing to do in these years. I'm afraid it will be difficult in the future, so two months ago, the county lord had sent people to find two good family sons. It was only because they were worried about their mother's birth ban that they kept them in the village. Now that the birth ban has passed, the two of them must follow the rules. They have been taught well, and what my aunt said reminded me that I can take them into the house."
Old Mrs. Liu felt like she was struck by lightning, obviously she didn't expect that Song Xia would take the initiative to take a concubine for Zhou Yongli.Even more anxious are Zhou Shuqing and Zhou Ying. If there are two more aunts in the house, won't their status be reduced?
Originally there was only one mistress in the mansion, plus their aunt and a concubine. Their aunt gave birth to them and was favored by their father. She was already half a mistress in the mansion. Now that there are two more concubines, the situation is completely different. Different, because in the eyes of outsiders, it means that the status of the aunt and these two people are equal.
When others mentioned it, they would only say that his father had three concubines, instead of just talking about Aunt Liu who gave birth to them.
"The County Lord is still virtuous. It is really rare to find someone as generous as the County Lord."
"Yes, it is difficult for the county lord to think about the Zhou family's heirs. It is really an honor for us to have the county lord in the Zhou family."
"Ms. Liu, are you relieved now? I have taken in two young and beautiful concubines at once. You don't have to worry about Yongli having no one to take care of you in the future."
"Liu Fangniang is indeed a bit frail. She is not in good health and cannot serve others. I will give more opportunities to newcomers in the future."
As soon as these words from the clansmen came out, what worried Zhou Yuqing and the others the most emerged. Not only did Song Xia gain a reputation as a virtuous person, but their aunt would have fewer opportunities to get along with her father in the future.
Song Xia nodded and said, "This county master will definitely make good arrangements and strive to allow the two newcomers to give birth to an heir for the husband as soon as possible."
These words soon reached the ears of Liu Fangniang, who was pretending to be sick. She really couldn't believe that Song Xia would be so generous!
She was pretending to be ill, but after learning that Song Xia had given Zhou Yongli two new concubines, and that Zhou Yongli would have to favor her in order to produce heirs, she became really ill.
She hated Song Xia so much that she scolded Song Xia for hurting herself eight hundred times in order to punish her, which was really stupid.
But in fact, Song Xia really didn't care at all. The Zhou family was rich and could only support two concubines. Even if they really gave birth to children in the future, she would be willing to use the money to support them.
Compared with making Liu Fangniang and the others angry, this money is more cost-effective.
Not to mention that she delayed two young girls. Without her, these two people might have been sold somewhere.
Being accepted as the concubine of the Minister of Rites in the capital was something they could only hope for. As long as they looked after Song Xia, at least they would be stable for the rest of their lives.
If she is lucky enough to have a son and a half daughter in the future, it will be even more like smoke coming from the ancestral grave. In the future, she might be able to be taken out of the house and become a wealthy old lady.
The courtyard in the mansion is ready-made, and Song Xia deliberately arranged it next door to Liu Fangniang.
Liu Fangniang's courtyard was originally chosen by Zhou Yongli himself. Not only was it large, it was also close to the front yard. Now the two new concubines were even closer to the front yard.
After ordering people to clean it, Song Xia arranged for two small sedans to bring the two concubines in the next day.
They were all women from the south of the Yangtze River. They thought they would be sold to a low-class place, but they were rescued by Song Xia. They were grateful and obeyed his orders. Isn't it easy for them to seduce the master of the house?I learned it on purpose back then.
Dealing with another concubine in the house?easy.
It doesn't matter if you have children, or if you have childhood sweethearts, my mother who taught me once said that men are the most fickle, and there are very few men in this world who are not unfaithful and unchanging.
What's more, they are still young and beautiful, and Aunt Liu has long been old and faded. Even if she doesn't come today, how can she still endure it? (End of chapter)
