Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 352: Marriage in the Palace, Cheating in the Garden (3)
"I can go out by myself, you can go about your business."

Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped out of the courtyard, she happened to run into Mrs. Shen who came back with Xia Ye Chunhong.

"Mingyue, why are you here?"

Shen was obviously surprised, "Are you leaving? Come in and have lunch before leaving."

Qiu Mingyue said: "No, I asked Lu Yuan and the others to make lunch when I came out, and Ming Xu was there too, I just came to take a look today." She smiled and asked, "How is Ming Rui?"

Shen said: "It's much better."

She pulled Qiu Mingyue aside and said in a low voice, "The eldest lady has returned to her mother's house today, do you know about this?"

Qiu Mingyue said: "Understood."

Shen shi sighed, not hiding the sadness between her brows.

Qiu Mingyue couldn't help saying: "Auntie, the eldest lady has gone back, and no one will make things difficult for you in the future. What are you worried about?"

Shen said quietly: "This time Da Furen has been devastated, I'm afraid she will be even more rampant when she comes back in the future."

Qiu Mingyue smiled, "This time she went back by herself, no one chased her away. Besides, I heard that she packed her bags and went back by herself without the consent of grandma and father. Grandma is very angry."

"That's right." Chen took her hand and sighed, "Ma'am is too arrogant. She has been used to domineering all these years, and she will be resentful if she fails again and again during this period of time. I did that on purpose last night... "

Qiu Mingyue quickly covered her mouth, hissed, and said in a low voice: "Auntie, be careful that the wall has ears."

Shen took her hand down, looked at the bandages on her hand, and her eyes were full of pity again.

"Last night, I added fuel to the flames, which made your father loathe the eldest lady even more. But I also know that the eldest lady has long regarded me as a thorn in the flesh, and I can't wait to deal with it quickly. If I don't resist, I will just let her eat Bullying. So, although I feel guilty and can't bear it, I don't regret doing it."

Qiu Mingyue nodded in agreement, "Auntie, you are right to think so. You must not have the intention of harming others, but you must have the intention of guarding against others. The eldest lady is a person whose nature is hard to change. The more forbearing you are, she will think that you She is easy to bully, and she gets more and more aggressive. To deal with people like her, repaying grievances with virtue is empty talk, you have to resist and use violence to control violence to suppress her aura."

Shen smiled helplessly and sighed, "Mingyue, it's not that I'm too hard-hearted, and it's not that I don't understand the twists and turns of competing for favor in the backyard. In the past, your father and I were considered to be in love with each other, but by accident, God failed to fulfill his wish, and he married someone else after all. I hated, resented, and even envied Lin. Hehehe, you Don't say I'm hypocritical. Men always say that women should be magnanimous and magnanimous, obey the four virtues, tolerate and take concubines for them, and greet them with a smile and wish other women to bear children for them. But where can there be such magnanimity? What about women? Who would want to see other women and their husbands being glued to each other, loving and having children?"

"I used to think that your father was different from those men in the world. He would treat me wholeheartedly, but he still married someone else. Later, I knew his difficulties and helplessness. Hehehe, I never told you these things , so you used to blame your father too."

Qiu Mingyue didn't speak, she had already heard Chen Xiang's experience about Shen Shi and the Grand Master, but when she said it again from Shen Shi's mouth, it was a different feeling.In particular, the sad but happy smile on Shen's face made her unable to help asking: "Auntie, do you regret it? Regret following dad? Is it right or wrong to leave Yangzhou to participate in the joint?"

Shen was silent for a while, then shook her head.

"I don't regret it. Although he once made me feel heartbroken and hopeless, if I had to choose again, I would still follow him without hesitation." She held Qiu Mingyue's hand and said, "Mingyue, maybe you will look down on me in your heart. But What I want to tell you is that women living in this era are always passive and helpless when it comes to their marriage choices. This secular conservatism, pedantry and dogma bound women are doomed to become men’s accessories. In fact Compared with many women, I am lucky and happy. At least, your father, his heart is with me."

Qiu Mingyue looked at the confident and gentle smile on her face in a daze.Shen Shi is beautiful, she has always known it.Her beauty is gentle, like a delicate daffodil, which makes people want to pamper and pamper them when they see it.Just like her at this moment, wearing a honey pink long dress of Wanfu satin inlaid with silver silk, and a rouge-colored silk embroidered begonia spring sleep light gauze jacket, her well-maintained face in her thirties is as delicate and beautiful as a begonia, and when she smiles, there are two smiles on her cheeks. Small dimples, clear and sparkling eyes, revealing a different kind of charm and charm inadvertently.

In fact, the eldest lady is also beautiful, but the eldest lady is too arrogant and ruthless, without the slightest femininity and gentleness of a woman.In this era where gentleness and virtuousness are regarded as beauty, the eldest lady is destined to be disgusted and despised by her husband.What about yourself?Qiu Mingyue couldn't help thinking that she probably didn't conform to the current society's aesthetics for women.

Feng Qingli's monstrous face suddenly appeared in his mind, and that person kept saying that he wanted to marry him, and even killed him first, and then played, but he had already asked Prince Rong to test his grandfather's words first.It's really hateful.

She was engrossed in her thoughts, but Shen turned her eyes to look at her, her eyes were full of sighs and pity.

"Mingyue, I don't ask for anything else, I just ask you to find a good marriage in the future. I don't ask you to marry a high-ranking official, I just want you to have a safe life. We women, the pursuit of all those glory and fame is just a cloud , it’s true only when you live your life in a down-to-earth way.”

Qiu Mingyue lowered her head, thinking, should she tell Shen that she is likely to marry into Prince Rong's mansion?
"Mingyue, what are you thinking?"

Seeing her contemplating, Shen spoke in doubt.

"Oh." Qiu Mingyue smiled, thinking that she couldn't keep this matter from Shen Shi forever, and said, "Auntie, grandpa may be promoted to the capital and become an official."

Shen was surprised, "How did you know, Mingyue, tell me, what news did you get? By the way, I just heard that your father and the old man asked you to go to the study this morning? Did something happen?"

Qiu Mingyue raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Auntie, you got news quite quickly."

Shen shi gave her an angry look and sighed.

"People's hearts are unpredictable. You are right. In such an environment, if you are too weak, you will only be bullied. Your father treats me well, and it will make other people jealous. So, I have to learn to be myself." protect yourself."

Qiu Mingyue shook her hand, "Auntie, you are right to think so."

Shen shook her hand instead, "Mingyue, what is your father and grandfather looking for you for?"
