Merchant's daughter is not a concubine

Chapter 9 She Is Your Concubine (2)
After dinner, Ning Qing asked Chu Rui to make a pot of lotus seed soup in the small kitchen. Everyone in Jingxinyuan drank half of the bowl and were full of praise.

Ning Qing's lotus seed soup is indeed very good. Besides this, she also makes a lot of desserts, which are her hobbies and interests in her previous life.Ning Qing thought, if it wasn't for her mother's tyranny and obstruction, she would definitely open a dessert shop in the future.

Thinking of this, Ning Qing's eyes suddenly brightened, yes, she can open a dessert shop!No one here said that she was just playing around with making desserts!
At night, the wind was blowing, and after driving for half a month, although they were tired, Ning Qing and Princess Chen had no intention of going to bed early, so they ordered fruit wine to sit under the willow tree to enjoy the coolness, and the maids all retreated.

"Don't take Aunt Ying's offense today to heart. She just speaks out and doesn't have a bad heart."

"I know."

It is said that wives and concubines are not compatible, but it depends on the circumstances of the wives and concubines, like Princess Chen, they can only watch and help each other.Aunt Ying should be the only person who can speak to Princess Chen in the palace.

Princess Chen glanced at Ning Qing's expression, struggled for a while before saying: "Qing'er, what do you think of today's rumors?"

Seeing Princess Chen, Ning Qing didn't comfort her, but asked her opinion. Knowing that there was room for change, she said anxiously: "Auntie, I... don't want to be a concubine! I have never dreamed of marrying His Royal Highness."

Princess Chen was overjoyed, and took Ning Qing's hand: "Thank God, my good boy, I thought you had the same thoughts as your grandmother!"

"No, no! What I said at home is true, I... don't want to be a concubine!" Ning Qing shook her head like a drum, but the last sentence was extremely firm.

The big stone in her heart fell, and Concubine Chen was greatly relieved, her eyes were a little wet: "Being a stepmother is hard enough, let alone being a concubine. I was thinking about how to persuade you along the way! Unexpectedly, you I just want to be clear. Don't worry, I will definitely find another good family for you in the future."

When it came to marriage, Ning Qing blushed a little: "It's good if the family is right, if the family is too high, it's hard to get in. They are all merchants, or a poor scholar."

The right family is not only in ancient times, but also in modern times.If the gap between the two sides is too large, the weaker side will have to accommodate the other side.The so-called right marriage often refers to the equality of status of both parties.

"This..." Chen Wangfei was surprised, "Why is this? Even if I am not favored, but if I have the cheek to ask your uncle, it is okay for you to marry an official of the sixth or seventh rank."

Ning Qing shook her head: "I don't even want it, Auntie, just follow me."

What she is looking for is not wealth, she just wants to have a cleaner marriage.

In order to have the capital to speak in the future, she has to save her own capital and dowry!Only in this way can you get what you want!

Although Ning Qing is a soft girl, most of the time she is smart and has a bit of tact and sophistication.

"Okay, it's all up to you. But it's still a long time, wait for the rumors to die down, and it won't be too late for you to say it in a year or so."

Ning Qing nodded. If she wanted to save her own capital, she had to hurry up: "Auntie, take me shopping tomorrow."

"Hey, I just praised you a few times, and you're back to your original shape! You're so out of touch! Rest at home for a few days, my aunt's old bones can't bear it anymore."

Ning Qing giggled, and quickly poured a glass of fruit wine for Princess Chen, coaxing her to be happy.
