Madam Hou

Chapter 1

The second daughter of Chen Dazhu's family, the county magistrate of Linping County, is going to be engaged to the nobleman in the capital, the eldest son of the Yongning Hou Mansion. In Linping County, it ranges from ordinary people to prominent families (mainly refers to the family's fixed assets in one thousand acres of fertile land) The wives of rich peasants above and officials above the county magistrate level all said sourly that the girl of the Chen family was really lucky.

Yin Niang was still dizzy after being hit by this piece of dog shit, and she still didn't wake up when Mother Chen asked her to come out to meet the nobles in the capital who came to give her the bride price.

Yin Niang let the noble lady who was wearing colorful thread and gold embroidered clothes and full of golden hairpins look around her carefully, and then saw her holding a handkerchief to cover her mouth and smiling without showing her teeth and said to her mother: "How can Mrs. Chen raise her daughter like this? The eldest sister is so delicate and charming that even the emperor boasted that she looks like a peony flower in bud, and the second sister is also raised like a flower. I'm afraid these three sisters are not bad looking, could it be that Linping County is really a supporter of water and soil?"

And her mother, who used to be straightforward, was very restrained throughout the whole process, and she didn't even dare to move more. When the lady boasted that she really knew how to raise a daughter, she would only answer: "Where, where!"

When the noble lady led a group of people and left Lin's house in a hurry, leaving 42 people carrying the head of the wild goose, and also including Heguan, Jiuzipu, Shuangshi, five-color silk, long-lived thread, cattail belt, dry lacquer , fish, deer, rice wine, and all kinds of silk and satin gifts, Yin Niang's chaotic head became clear. She is really about to marry to the Hou's Mansion in the capital. She jumped to become the wife of the eldest son of the Yipinhou Mansion, and after the current Lord Hou dies, she will continue to be promoted to become Mrs. Hou.

God, if such a big pie falls, you are not afraid of killing people.

Lin's mother looked at the pile of dazzling gifts in the room, and she was also worried. How should the dowry be prepared for such a high-standard gift.

Yin Niang also felt that she had run into shit luck.

In fact, it was Yinniang's sister Yanniang who was betrothed to the Hou's mansion. Of course, Yanniang's betrothed was not the eldest son of the Hou's mansion, but a concubine of the eldest son.But later, Yanniang waved her sleeves and followed the emperor into the palace to become a favorite concubine, so Yinniang stepped in as a substitute.

It turned out to be like this.

On a dark, windy and rainy day last year, Yanniang ran into Mrs. Lin Hou who was robbed by bandits in Linping County after returning to her hometown to worship her ancestors.

It is said that the robbers had already robbed their belongings at that time, and were about to start robbing sex. Yanniang, who had the temperament of a heroine, encountered this injustice, she drew her sword to help, and immediately transformed into a Sailor Moon. The bandit led away from the scene of the crime, and finally returned to the scene of the crime, rescued Mrs. Lin Hou back home, and took care of the injured Mrs. Lin Hou in every possible way.

After Mrs. Linhou recovered from her injuries in the Chen family, the chariots and horses that received a letter from Mrs. Linhou to take Mrs. Linhou back to Beijing also arrived at the Chen family. Only then did the Chen family (including Yanniang herself) know that Yanniang rescued her. The incomparably noble Mrs. Hou in the capital.

Before Mrs. Linhou left Linping County, holding Yanniang's hand with tears in her eyes, she said very gratefully: "Little girl, thank you very much. If it weren't for you, I would have been a ghost by the sword. Do you have anything?" Whatever you want, as long as I can do it, I will do it for you."

Yan Niang originally wanted to reply, what is the fuss about such a small matter, madam.

As a result, her words were still on her lips. Her father, who was greedy for life and afraid of being retaliated by the robbers and wanted to drive Mrs. Lin Hou out of the Chen family, said very shamelessly: "You and my daughter are so destined. Why don't we form a family with sons and daughters?"

Mrs. Lin Hou choked for a moment, took a cold breath in her heart, and scolded him in her heart for being a stinky and shameless person.Although it is said that the kindness of dripping water is repaid by the spring, there is no reason to repay it with his son.She had only given birth to two sons, and she still had to keep them to marry the nobles.

Mrs. Linhou originally thought that the country people have shallow eyesight, and at most they would only think of gold, silver, jewels, land and acres. If they want these, it’s okay to give them, and it’s considered repaying the grace of saving their lives, but in the end they wanted Her son paid off the debt with his own body.

But with so many people watching, it's not easy to repent directly.Mrs. Lin Hou secretly regretted that she should not have promised too much just now, making it difficult to get off the horse.

At this time, Mrs. Linhou finally remembered that there was a bastard who had grown up in the family.

Mrs. Lin Hou had regretted countless times that she didn't catch all these radish heads in the back house women's war, and left a fish that slipped through the net. Only at this time, she was extremely lucky, fortunately, a fish was left behind.

Mrs. Lin Hou wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, then winked, and smiled in a noble voice: "Master Chen really put forward a good idea, Niang Yan, I like it very much, if you do me My daughter-in-law, I will definitely treat her like my daughter. My second son, seventeen years old, is not born by me, but he is smart and has been loved by me and Lord Hou since childhood. If adults agree, I will discuss it with Lord Hou when I return to Beijing. , so I brought the dowry to hire Yanniang to be my daughter-in-law."

Elder Chen originally wanted Mrs. Linhou to hire Yanniang as her direct daughter-in-law, but after all, he was not out of his imagination, and thought that even a concubine would be considered good if Yanniang married.

Although Mrs. Chen can't understand Mr. Chen's style, but thinking that her daughter can marry into the Hou's mansion, even marrying a concubine is a marriage that has climbed several floors. Where can I find such a good family in Linping County? There is no such store in this village, so although Mrs. Chen looked embarrassed, she did not stop it.

So Mrs. Linhou and Mr. Chen made a verbal agreement on marriage.

After returning to the capital, Mrs. Lin Hou told Lord Lin Hou about the agreement, but Lord Lin Hou thought that the woman's family background was low, so he was unwilling to marry this marriage, and reprimanded Mrs. Lin Hou for taking the bastards lightly.

Mrs. Lin Hou coaxed and lied, and in the end, when their brothers separated, they would distribute the [-]-acre farm in Daxing and three profitable shops in the capital to the concubine, and set up a document on the condition that Lord Lin Hou Agreed to this marriage.

Afterwards, the decision should have been made, but Mrs. Lin Hou thought of Mrs. Chen's face, and really didn't believe in the family education of the Chen family. Although she didn't care about the concubine's daughter-in-law, she thought that if the time came, Yanniang would make a joke when she got married. , it was the Hou family's face that was lost.

He also thought that Yanniang was only 15 years old anyway, so it would be okay to postpone the marriage for a year or two, it would be better to bring her to the capital, teach her the rules and then discuss the matter of getting married, so as not to make a joke when the rules go wrong, Affected her son.

So Mrs. Linhou wrote a letter and took it to Linping County, and at the same time took Yanniang to the capital.
