Biography of Ilha in Qing Chuan

Chapter 122

"Isn't it the third elder brother in the palace? I heard that the widow was originally a maidservant by the Hesheli family's side, but the maid was kicked out of the mansion two years ago because her hands and feet were not clean, so she found a butcher in Fangshan Married, maybe life is hard, and within half a year the butcher got a sudden illness and died."

"Which Hesheli's family?" Beijing is full of children from the Eight Banners, and there are many families with the same surname. Yierha really doesn't know which Hesheli family Baoqin is talking about.

"I don't know which family of servants it is, but I heard that they are close to Suo Xiang's family."

Mother Hai heard what Yierha said, so she interjected: "That family was originally from the same branch as Queen Hesheli's mother's family. After the separation, the children in the family gradually declined. Married to Tong Guowei, now I can support my family a bit."

Not to mention that Nanny Hai is clear about these unclear relationships with the Eight Banners in the capital, Baoqin thought of which one it was as soon as she said it.

Yilha nodded after hearing this and said: "If it's true, the third elder brother should be extremely cautious, how could it spread to the palace?" Let's not talk about the foster room, after all, being a widow really makes people... .

"It's not all caused by Sanfujin." Baoqin pouted.Seeing his master looking at him curiously, he continued, "I don't know how Sanfujin knew about it. I had a big fight with my elder brother about it a few days ago, and it was passed on by the snarky servant." .”

After hearing this, Yilha really felt that Sanfujin was a wonderful person.The gossip about their yard in the Nansan Institute has never stopped since I got married to the third elder brother.

Li Si'er was originally served by the uncle of the Hesheli family, because of her gorgeous and charming appearance, the uncle of the Hesheli family missed her for a long time, but because his family Fujin watched too closely and had no chance to do anything.

And Li Si'er, relying on her appearance and good figure, had long thought of serving her master, and Hesheli Morgan, who had teased her several times in the study, almost couldn't help but want her.Originally, Li Si'er wanted to hang on to Morgan for a few more days, so he belittled himself by saving it easily.

It's just that I didn't expect that some naughty servant would gossip a lot in front of Fujin.Before Morgan accepted her, the maid who lived in the same room with Li Si'er reported to Fujin that she had dirty hands and feet and stole things from her master.Fujin sent someone to search the house, and sure enough, they found the hairpin that Morgan rewarded her in her cage.

Li Si'er wanted to refute, but Fujin's mother insisted that she stole it.Morgan is soft-boned, for the sake of a maid, he naturally refused to offend Fujin, so he pretended not to know.That's why Li Si'er was kicked out of the mansion.

Later, she married a widower who was from Fangshan and sold pork in the capital.So Li Si'er's life is not as good as when he was serving by Morgan's side.But there is more than enough than the top and more than the bottom.

It's just that Li Si'er was unlucky. The widower fell into an emergency within half a year of marriage.The neighbors all said that it was her fate, otherwise how could such a strong man lose his life after marrying her.

So Li Si'er became a widow at a young age. Fortunately, the widower had no other family members, so Li Si'er guarded the house and made a living by doing simple needlework for others. His life was very difficult.

She originally wanted to find another man to marry, but ordinary people don't pay much attention to remarrying widows.But this Li Si'er carried the name of Kefu, so almost no one dared to come to propose marriage.Originally, she thought it would be like this for the rest of her life, but Mrs. Zhang, who never wanted to ask her to do needlework frequently, changed her fate.

Although Li Si'er was originally a servant serving others in the Hesheli Mansion, but because Morgan was greedy for her, she lived a comfortable life.But now let alone rouge, gouache and new clothes, even if you want to eat some meat, you have to think carefully.

Mrs. Zhang used to be a matchmaker, not only in Fangshan Road, but also in Duojing City, and she also knew a lot of people.She often asked Li Si'er to do needlework, seeing that she was struggling to earn a living and she looked outstanding, she started thinking about it.

"Si Niang, if you are capable, I will find a way to get you into a top-notch book apartment in the capital to be a girl." Seeing that Li Si'er was still a bit hesitant, he added fire Said: "You, don't dislike this errand of serving tea and water, whoever goes there, they are all nobles in Beijing!"

"Ma'am, it's not that I dislike the job of serving tea and pouring water, it's just that in that kind of place, I, a widow, always..." Li Si'er still hesitated.

Seeing her appearance, Mrs. Zhang reacted abruptly and laughed a few times before she said, "Si Niang, the book apartment is not a brothel. There are only literati and bachelors there. The girls in it can play and sing, and those who are good at speaking are good at it." It’s not surprising that most people can’t write a poem without seeing the girl’s face, and don’t worry, the girls there think of themselves as noble, and make a living by their skills rather than their looks, the so-called “beautiful art without selling themselves” is not what you think.”

Seeing that Li Si'er was a little moved, he continued: "The people who go here must be the nobles in the capital, maybe one day, Si Niang, you will fly to the branches, and then don't forget about my old lady Zhang."

Li Si'er thought about it for a second, he really couldn't tell which nobleman had taken a fancy to him, and accepted him into the mansion as a concubine, no matter what, he would be better than now.So Li Si'er finally agreed to go to Lanting Shuyu under the persuasion of Mrs. Zhang.

The third elder brother likes Wen, and often mixes with a group of scholars from the Imperial Academy.Lan Ting Book Apartment is naturally a good place for these literati to have fun. Somehow, the third elder brother didn't like the girl in the book apartment, so he fell in love with Li Si'er.
