Chapter 221 Entering Beijing ([-])

Zhao Yuanqing didn't need to pay attention to her mother's gaze, she had a cold expression on her face, thinking of her daughter's dissatisfaction with the Zhong family's marriage, she also knew that her daughter was suffocated, otherwise how could she say such things.

"Mother, I know what you are worried about. You don't need to say more. My daughter has been laughed at for a long time. What else is there to be afraid of seeing and talking about? If the Zhong family thinks that her daughter is not doing well, You can simply withdraw from the marriage. An ordinary wife, they Zhongfu still want to find a fairy? I really have that thought, that daughter is not worthy of their Zhongfu, so it is better to make a deal as soon as possible. In the eyes of outsiders, it is the daughter Gao Pan After this marriage, she is just a flat wife, and her daughter is not willing, so she can climb up to whichever family she wants, so as not to get three or four behind her back. Mother is worried about what those people are doing, and the flat wife is just a flat wife Concubine, after marrying, this life will be ruined there, and the daughter will be ruined for the rest of her life, are those fake things still important?" After Zhao Yuanqing knew that the marriage and the family had not resigned, she changed her normal behavior and spoke a little bit meanly.

Mrs. Gao sighed, "You ruined your reputation, what good is it for you? Even if the Zhong family knows that they have backed off, do you still want to find a good husband's family? Sister Qing, you have always been sensible, even Sometimes you are the one who helps mother out with ideas, why don’t you understand this simple truth now, I won’t say a word to you, because I know you understand everything. This time when you come to Beijing, the prince is going to be enthroned, Zhong The mansion is also a minister of the dragon, and the rules in the mansion should not be broken. It is impossible to spoil concubines and kill wives, but it depends on human effort. Whether she can sit firmly as a wife depends on herself, so it depends on her temperament. , I don’t think it will last long. Just trust me once, hold your breath, and you will definitely be able to wait until the flowers bloom.”

"My daughter really can't wait any longer. As long as she thinks of becoming a concubine, her chest will be torn open. Does mother know what it feels like? How is my daughter worse than them? Look at the second sister, and then look at the fifth sister. Girl, which one of them is better than me? Why should my daughter be reduced to become a concubine? When I returned to the capital, my father was reinstated. Is he still using this marriage with the Zhong family? Or are the parents afraid of being retaliated by the Zhong family? If so, why don’t you send your daughter to be an aunt, even for the rest of your life, your daughter would rather live with a dry lamp for the rest of her life than be a concubine.” Zhao Yuanqing covered her face and began to cry.

Mrs. Gao also lowered her head and wiped her tears, "Mother, why would you want you to be a concubine? At that time in Tongchuan, I had no choice but to retire. Now I want to retire, but no one can see that your father and I don't care, but what should you do? Can you really marry well? Unless you want to marry into a poor family, don’t think about anything else. I can see that when the two families get married, when you marry and become enemies, it’s better not to Jie, then think about it now, whether to marry into a poor family, or to be an ordinary wife of a rich family."

Taking a deep breath, Mrs. Gao looked at her daughter coldly, and asked her to tell her to become an aunt. Well, in the future, it’s better not to blame her as a mother, but let her decide for herself, "Think about it carefully." , Don’t blame us for coming if you regret it in the future, let you make your own decision now.”

Zhao Yuanqing didn't expect her mother to say this suddenly, "I...can I really make my own decision? What about my father? Will he agree? Will I blame my mother? And what about the Zhongfu?"

"Now you know to worry about these things, and you wouldn't do those things before. What's the use of worrying about them now? Well, I can't make you hate us. You don't have to worry about these things now, just make your own choices."

"I...I would rather marry a poor man." Zhao Yuanqing lowered her head, "Mother, don't blame me for being selfish. My daughter is unwilling to be a concubine, and she will not be able to hold her head up in front of five maids for the rest of her life. She just asks her mother to find a concubine for her daughter." A scholar from a poor family, my daughter believes that as long as he is willing to put his heart into it, he will surely have a bright future."

Mrs. Gao shook her head, "Sure enough, you are still too young. You really think that as long as you are self-motivated, you can get ahead. What kind of poor family is there? You think too simple, Sister Qing, since you have made a choice, then In the future, don't regret it because of this, and don't resent your parents. You go back, and I will tell your father about this. Your father has always had a good temper, so he won't say anything. It's just to suppress your father, he was originally a vacant fourth-grade Dianyi, and he has no chance of further advancement."

"Mother, then I'll go back." Zhao Yuanqing made up her mind and turned around to get out of the carriage.

Bao Hen took a small thin quilt and put it on Gao, "Madam, the girl has been sensible since she was a child, and she must have suffered for doing this this time. Don't be sad, Madam."

"She came out of my stomach. How could I blame her? It's just that this child's thinking is too simple. Forget it, instead of our mother and daughter fighting like enemies, let her understand that my mother is real in the future. Just feel sorry for her." Gao Shi was in a bad mood, waved his hand to let Baohen go down, and lay alone in the carriage without even eating dinner.

The girls from the third and fourth rooms of Zhao's house started a quarrel, and the news spread, so Zhao Yuran naturally knew about it, not to mention that his wife didn't even eat dinner, so he asked the girl to get ready, and he got into the carriage with the food box.

"Sister Qing is ignorant, so just say she hasn't eaten all day, why don't you eat some?"

"It's just right that the master is back. I have something to say to the master." Gao sat up, but did not eat. "Sister Qing has never liked the marriage of the Zhong family. If she continues to make trouble like this, I am afraid that the two families will become enemies. I think this marriage should be called off."

Zhao Yuran didn't ask any further questions, "If that's the case, then let's quit. When I get to the capital, I'll go to the Zhong Mansion to admit my mistake."

"It's my concubine who is sorry for the master." Gao lowered her head secretly.

"What are you talking about, you and I are husband and wife, no one is sorry for the other, but I feel that I am sorry for Sister Qing, and it is because I, a father, is incapable of finding a good marriage for her."

"Master, how can we blame you for this? Who made us encounter this troubled world? It would be nice if the family can be safe and sound." Mrs. Gao felt more and more distressed for her husband, "My elder brother waited until the capital, I went to have a look and let my sister-in-law Find a young general in the army for Sister Qing to marry, it doesn't matter what kind of rich family it is, as long as it is a self-motivated person with good character."

"Madam can handle everything." Zhao Yuran brought the food box over, "Madam, eat too, don't damage your body, as you said just now, nothing is as good as a family. Our family is no longer enough. , I was at the second room just now, and I heard that the fifth room was in trouble again. After Xiaowu got married, he didn't go to the courtyard of his younger siblings. He was with his aunt on the road again. Even the eldest of the Wen family couldn't stand it anymore. Xiao Wu was beaten, and the old lady yelled that she was going to settle accounts with the Wen family, but she was scolded by her father, and then she calmed down. When it was Xiao Wu, she vented her anger on her younger siblings, who also broke their heads. Yes, the eldest brother of the fourth room made friends everywhere, but he didn't think about the things he did, and no one would pay attention to him, bumping into walls everywhere. Compared with our third room, our third room is already very good. Marriage is not something we take the initiative to pursue It was Zhong Fu himself who said it, no matter what, we have withdrawn from this marriage, and outsiders will not say anything. What's more, Wu Yatou said that again today, and it will only point the fault to Wu Yatou."

Zhao Yuran comforted his wife, and there was a smile on Gao's face, "The master knew it in his heart, and the concubine was worried about the master. Now that I heard the master say that, I feel relieved. It's just that the concubine didn't expect Miss Qing's The reaction will be so big, that's all, this twisted melon is not sweet."

The husband and wife opened up their concerns, but Zhao Yuanqing didn't feel relieved at all. After thinking for a while, she took the girl to the big room. Yuanxi was quite surprised to hear that Zhao Yuanqing had come. After entering Tongchuan, They never met once.

Only then did the curtain be lifted to let people get into the carriage. The carriage was warm, and Zhao Yuanqing's face was not as pale as when she came in. She looked around inside the carriage, "No wonder the second sister's carriage is so warm, it turns out it has fur. It’s a good way to bread the inside.”

"Fourth Sister is a joke, but it's just a joke." Yuan Xi knew that she didn't come here for such a trivial matter, "Fourth Sister must have something to do here, right?"

"It's because I want to ask my second sister for something." Seeing that there were only two people in the carriage, Zhao Yuanqing said directly, "Second sister should have heard about my engagement to Zhongfu, but I disagree, as the saying goes I'd rather be a poor man's wife than a rich man's concubine. Today, my mother saw me quarreling with my fifth younger sister. She also said to help me withdraw the marriage of Zhongfu, but Zhongfu will be angry about this matter. I think about my second sister and Zhongfu. I'm familiar with it, and when I think about it, let my second sister help me say a few good words, after all, I don't want to involve my father because of my own affairs."

"It's inappropriate for the fourth younger sister to ask me for this matter. I used to be familiar with the Zhong family, and my younger sister should have heard that we even discussed marriage. Later, something happened and the marriage was divorced. Now my younger sister asks me to talk about it." This matter is not justified. Besides, I have never been to Zhong's house since the incident happened. The fourth sister's worry is too much. Based on my understanding of Aunt Zhong, she will not blame the fourth sister. There is an intention to form a friendship, if one party is not willing, it will not be good if one party is forced to come. Everyone knows this truth, and Aunt Zhong must not understand." Yuanxi was not angry, and smiled, "Fourth sister usually He doesn't talk much, but he's also a smart guy, he must be asking me to come here today because he cares about it."

She had divorced Zhong Fu, and her younger sister was also going to divorce Zhong Fu, but she was asked to help her in the conversation. Zhong Fu was sorry for her, and would naturally sell her a favor, but what would outsiders say?Zhao Yuanqing was so smart, Yuan Xi couldn't believe that she hadn't thought of this.
