Aristocratic Concubine

Chapter 29 Aunt Zhao's Idea

Chapter 29 Aunt Zhao's Idea
"But your brother-in-law is only a fifth rank, can Shouchangbo's mansion be liked?" Lin's heart was uncertain.

Aunt Zhao showed disdain in her eyes: "Don't underestimate yourself too much. Although my brother-in-law is not a high official, the Gu family is a wealthy family and a scholar. Mrs. Shouchangbo is in a hurry now, and wants to give the overlord a favor quickly." Find someone in the house to take care of it, so that he can calm down, otherwise, if you let him go on messing around, the title will be taken away if you fail to keep up with the emperor."

"That happened to be about Sister Rong. She is also sixteen. Our master is blaming me for not giving her a special family." After hearing this, Mrs. Lin became more at ease, and her spirit also came. For her, a concubine They are all tools in her hands. Their marriage can't be too happy, and they can bring back some benefits to the Gu family. This is what she is most happy about.

"Sister Rong, I have already figured out a place for you. Your brother-in-law has a military general, a widower, who died last year as his first wife, and is also a sixth-rank man. He didn't have a son before him. The best thing is that he has no mother-in-law to take care of him. , she will be able to take charge of the family as soon as she passes through the family. Your brother-in-law has already mentioned this marriage to your brother-in-law, but the brother-in-law just thinks it is a step-wife, so he hasn't agreed yet, so he just wants my sister to talk about it." Concern, put it thoughtfully.

After hearing this, Mrs. Lin felt that this elder sister was sincerely doing her best. The more the two sisters talked, the more intimate they became, and the more they talked, the more speculative they became...

Wanqing followed Mrs. Lin out of the carriage, her eyebrows were pleasing to the eye, her head slightly lowered, trying her best to maintain the image of a lady. The vermilion gate of the Jingning Hou Mansion is very wide, and there are two majestic big stone lions sitting on both sides. On it are the four big characters of Jinxi, Jingning Houfu, which is said to be handwritten by the great grandfather himself.

A woman came to meet her at the door, but she brought a soft sedan chair, and asked Mrs. Lin to sit in the soft sedan chair and enter the second gate.

There were already people waiting in front of the screen wall, the leader was a young woman in her thirties, dressed elegantly and decently, with a beautiful appearance, Mrs. Lin was wondering who she was, when the second wife went up to her and said, "Why bother me?" The lady came to pick it up in person."

It was only then that Lin knew that this was Jingninghou's cousin and wife, the second wife of Shangguan. The second lady was elegant, but she was very eloquent, and her words were playful. A few words made Lin a little more relieved. Not as stiff as before.

"Today, the old lady heard that some ladies and girls are coming. When she is happy, her body is refreshed, and she wants to come out to have fun. No, my sister-in-law is serving the old lady. Let me come out to welcome some, and invite some Madam, don’t be offended, let’s go to the flower hall to drink tea and talk.” Mrs. Shangguan led the way with a smile, and Lin felt better after hearing this. After all, she is the in-law of Princess Ninghua, so it is reasonable to come to welcome her It should be Ning Hua.

Entering the flower hall, I saw Princess Ninghua standing respectfully beside a woman in her fifties and talking. The woman had a long face, fair skin, and a kind smile on her face. With a graceful and luxurious air, sitting under Mrs. Ning Hua was a lady with a turmeric complexion and a sickly body. She was in her 30s, but she didn't know who it was.

The second lady introduced the Lin family to the old lady of the Shangguan, and Ning Hua turned around, took a few steps forward, and made a gesture of greeting, but her face was full of arrogance. Aunt Zhao, Lin Shi and the second wife went to greet the old lady of Shangguan.

The old lady of Shangguan cast her eyes directly on Wanli and the others, but Ning Hua only took Aunt Zhao's hand to the old lady and said, "Old lady, Mrs. Zhao has raised a good son, and young people don't want to show off their ancestral shades." , I have to take the exam by myself, I won the Juren at the age of 16, and now I plan to take the Jinshi exam next year."

The old lady blinked her eyes, nodded and said, "He's really a good boy." But she didn't want to say more, and Ning Hua couldn't continue talking.

The old lady started chatting with Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Lin was very happy, she took Wanli's hand and said, "This is my unworthy fourth girl, Wanli has not come forward to pay respects to my ancestors."

Wanli stepped forward gracefully and gracefully, and saluted the old lady of Shangguan generously. The old lady took a closer look at Wanli and waved to Wanli: "Ah, what a lovely person, she looks like she came out of a painting." Come on, come to grandma and tell grandma, what have you learned during the day?"

Wanli leaned close to the old lady, and said shyly: "I've dabbled in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I'm not good at it. Mother said those are fun. On weekdays, mother still asks me to learn more female celebrities. You have to recite the female training once before you can sleep."

female celebrity?Gu Wanli can really talk nonsense. She is usually the most impatient, and only likes to recite poems and paint.Female training?The only ones to memorize are Wanqing and Wanrong, okay? When has she ever memorized it?

Wanqing lowered her head and slandered in her heart for a while. Gu Wanli was extremely unwilling to have this marriage before, so she had a lot of troubles with the Lin family. Today, when she came to the Jingning Hou Mansion and saw the magnificence of the Hou Mansion, her heart naturally became alive. Anyway, it's not bad to be able to marry into such a wealthy family and become a young mistress anyway. So, the lofty Miss Wanli also fell in love with female celebrities, and she behaved chastely and gentlely in front of the old lady of Shangguan. She looks like a lady.

The old lady was really happy when she heard that, and she looked at her with the kindness and affection like looking at her own granddaughter.

The sick lady beside her had been sitting quietly before, now she also had a smile on her face, and started chatting with Mrs. Lin, talking about Wanqing: "I heard that the lady has a daughter who is very filial. When I was young, I prayed for your old lady in Ji'an Temple for half a year, which one is it?"

Now that Mrs. Lin knew that she was Mrs. Shouchangbo, she happily took Wanqing out, and introduced her to Mrs. Shouchangbo with a smile.

When Mrs. Shouchang saw Wanqing, although she was thin and weak, her eyes were clear and bright, her lips were red and her teeth were white, and she was beautiful and cute. She fell in love with her immediately, and asked Wanqing if she had ever engaged.

Wanqing's heart was shocked when she heard that, she raised her eyes and quickly glanced at Mrs. Lin, in the eyes of Mrs. Shouchangbo, she was shy and polite.

Mrs. Lin hurriedly replied: "Miss Qing will marry Ji next year, but she hasn't said anything about marriage yet."

The smile on Mrs. Shou Changbo's face stretched even more when she heard this.
