When Lu Yunying came to the principal's house for her marriage, it happened that his wife and her confidant, Grandma Qian, were also discussing the matter. Unlike Lu Yunying's idea of staying out of the matter, she was now very angry, because she had just met her not long ago. Lu Feng talked about Lu Yunying's marriage.
More than twenty years ago, the Hu family was considered a well-known and wealthy family in the Jiangnan area. Unfortunately, it is now gradually declining. The only eldest son of this generation with good qualifications is also sick. I originally planned to marry him early and have children, but I didn't want the Hu family to Down and out, but high-spirited, he couldn't find anyone he liked. In the end, he let his concubine give birth to a young master. The young master was so favored by the elders of the Hu family that he was even rumored to be the next generation heir.
Now the marriage of the eldest son of the Hu family is even more embarrassing. Good people will look down on him, and those who are not good enough but love their daughters will not marry him. The Hu family themselves also look down on the rest. It just so happened that their family had made harsh words about getting a beautiful woman, which made many people wait to see the joke.
Helpless, the old lady of the Hu family had no choice but to send a letter to his wife, hoping to get married.
Mrs. Hu is not a direct descendant of the Hu family, but she is her natal family, which has been quite supportive of her over the years and cannot be left alone.
Don't think about her own daughter. A lady from an official family will be laughed at if she marries a businessman. Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are not just words. If the Hu family hadn't bet on Lu Feng from the beginning, Lu Feng is a person who loves fame and face. , she also gave birth to two daughters and a son. Now that a merchant was born, and her natal family was already in dire straits, it was hard to tell whether she was still the wife of the principal wife.
But other concubines can consider it.
The first thing that Mrs. Hu thought of was Aunt Qin's daughter Lu Yunshui. If the Fourth Miss married to the Hu family, it would not be her who had the final say, and with her here, Aunt Qin would have to be careful.
It's a pity that Lu Feng liked this daughter very much and was determined not to agree. Mrs. Hu had no choice but to give up. After thinking about it, Lu Yunying was the only one suitable.
Aunt Zhang was originally her maid and a son of the Hu family. If she hadn't promoted her, how could she have had the blessing of being an aunt in the Lu family and giving birth to a daughter?
Now is the time for their mother and daughter to repay the Hu family's kindness.
Sure enough, she prepared the plan and told Lu Feng. Lu Feng was reluctant at first but did not get angry. It was not good for officials and businessmen to get married, and it was even worse to marry a daughter, even if it was a concubine whom he didn't care about.
But Mrs. Hu knew her husband's character too well, so she withdrew from the servants. First she talked about the kindness of Bole in the past, and then sighed for Lu Yunying's lack of talent. Then she pointed out the current shortage of silver in the house, and finally gave a hint quietly. Lu Feng was shaken by the betrothal gift given by the Hu family, but did not agree immediately.
Mrs. Hu knew that he needed some time to think, but he would agree sooner or later, so she didn't rush him, but she didn't want to stand in the way.
Of course she didn't think it was an accident. She just felt that Aunt Qin was deliberately going against her and slapping her in the face. She didn't tell her sooner or later, but she just exposed it in the past few days. The little bitch she gave birth to before the exposure even humiliated her. daughter.
"Humph, she is just an aunt and a concubine, but she is interfering in the marriage affairs of the ladies in the house. What? Will my mother and son be kicked out one day?"
As she spoke, Mrs. Hu twisted the veil fiercely.
This made Grandma Qian quickly comfort her:
"It's just a concubine. She pretends to be powerful by relying on her friendship with the master and her face, but time flies by. Wait..."
"Mommy, you always say this. It would be great if it were true."
"Isn't Aunt Zhang beautiful? But I am not as enthusiastic about her as I am for Aunt Qin. After so many years..."
Aunt Qian still used the same old words to comfort people, but Mrs. Hu became more and more impatient. It is true that Yi Se's servant will not last long, but the problem is that Qin has been here for more than ten or twenty years. Wait, what else is she waiting for? Time to go?
That bitch is old, and so is she. Could it be that she really has to spend her whole life with that bitch?
It's also my fault that Aunt Zhang is useless. She has such a face, but she can't even seduce a man.
The more she thought about it, the more furious she became. It was at this time that Lu Yunying came in. As soon as she came in, she felt bad, whether it was the atmosphere in the room or the lady's face, but she couldn't retreat now.
She also knows what kind of character Aunt Qin is. If everyone doesn't know, she will take her time. But now that Lu Yunshui has shouted out to let everyone know, Aunt Qin will definitely seize the time.
What's more, just like Madam, Aunt Qin also feels that Madam will stop her if she wants to do anything. For whatever reason, if the enemy is unhappy, she will feel better.
That's why Lu Yunying wanted to seize the time to come here, but it seemed that she came at the wrong time.
Wait, why is madam angry?
A flash of light flashed, and Lu Yunying seemed to have caught something.
It's a joy to have the eldest sister Lu Yunqi come back to live temporarily. The offense committed by the fourth sister yesterday has already been punished, so what can make Madam angry?
——Her marriage.
Lu Yunying realized this immediately. She was here to test Madam's attitude. Madam was dissatisfied with her marriage not only because she couldn't deal with Aunt Qin, but also because she thought it was something else. Although she didn't know the details, she didn't know it. Come to her.
"Mother."
Lu Yunying bowed deeply.
"What are you doing here? Didn't I say I didn't have to pay my respects today?"
"Mother, I, I..."
Lu Yunying paused, and then said:
"Yesterday, my fourth sister said that my marriage was decided."
"Nonsense, how come I didn't know your marriage was decided?"
Then she thought about the many maids and women in the room. After a pause, Mrs. Hu said again:
"What's more, your marriage is not something you, a young girl who has not yet left the government, should inquire about."
This is funny. Madam Hu herself repeatedly inquired about the eldest young lady’s marriage. She also tried to get Lu Feng to invite the eldest son of the Wang family to come to her house, so that the eldest lady could meet him and confirm that the eldest lady Lu Yunqi was Only then did he make the decision if he was willing.
Of course, now is not the time to talk about this. Mrs. Hu is a little different. Lu Yunying, who is usually introverted and timid, actually comes to her to ask this. But then thinking about the recent rumors in the house, the girl's family only has this hope in this life, so she takes the risk It’s not incomprehensible if you come here.
What's more, unlike those of Aunt Qin's children, Lu Yunying was very respectful to her and watched her grow up. With this idea, the little girl was going to marry an older man who was several decades old. Mrs. Hu secretly scolded Aunt Qin for not doing so. While doing human affairs, my heart also softened.
"Okay, help the third lady up first."
While saying this, he motioned for the extra people to go out, then softened his tone and said:
"Hey, you, you, I have watched you grow up, and Aunt Zhang has such a fate with me. As a mother, how can I not feel sorry for you?"
Lu Yunying lowered her eyes and said timidly:
"I know my mother is taking care of my aunt and me."
"It's good that you know. Hey, don't think I'm just talking. We're not outsiders here, so I'll just say it."
"I originally planned to marry you to my natal family. The Hu family has a fate with your aunt, and you are no different from being raised under my knees. Once you marry, you will be the mistress of the house, wearing gold and silver. Wouldn't your life be comfortable? But how could I know .....Your father is thinking about you, so I am afraid that all my plans will come to nothing."
After saying that, Mrs. Hu sighed very sincerely.
Lu Yunying finally understood why Mrs. Hu was angry, and sneered in her heart, where would it be so good to marry into the Hu family? Mrs. Hu and Aunt Qin were fighting in the palace. Every detail of both parties was revealed by the other party. The eldest son of the Hu family was not weak at first. After so many experiences among the flowers, he had bad luck, so he was not weak. Yet?
This is also the relationship between the young master who is so precious to the Hu family. Who knows if there will be a second healthy young master?
Now was not the time to talk about this. Knowing that this moment was extremely important to her, Lu Yunying suddenly had an idea, tears fell, and her voice trembled:
"Thank you, mother, for worrying about me. I'm afraid I won't have such a fate with the Hu family's young cousin. Since the fourth sister spoke like that, I'm afraid it's not groundless."
"It is true that the daughter of the boudoir should not interfere in her own marriage. The daughter relied on her mother's love to ask one more question. If it is indeed impossible to change her mind, then there is nothing wrong with the people in the family who care about her."
"After all, she can be regarded as a serious official wife. I heard that Aunt Qin was the one who pulled the strings. Not only my father, I, I'm afraid I have to thank her too."
Now it was not just Mrs. Hu, but even Grandma Qian who was standing aside almost laughed out loud.
I know that the third girl has always been a timid and honest character, but honesty is not that honest. People have sold you for benefits, and you still want to thank others.
Stupid, so stupid, so stupid that they didn’t know how to speak for a moment.
But then, Madam Hu's expression changed as she thought of something, and Madam Hu didn't calm down until Lu Yunying took her maid Yu Duo out.
As soon as she left the madam's yard, Yu Duo's expression became even more ugly. She thought the young lady was successful, but she didn't expect the result to be like this. The madam had no intention of helping at all. Wouldn't her young lady still have to marry someone? Old official?
So as soon as she arrived at Lu Yunying's boudoir, Yu Duo spoke:
"What should I do? Miss, do you want to beg my wife? Marrying Mr. Hu is much better than an old official."
"What's better?"
Lu Yunying was not in a hurry, and the timidity on her face disappeared. However, she was quite satisfied with Yu Duo, at least she could not speak until this moment.
"At least Mr. Hu is young and handsome. He is about the same age as you, Miss."
"Is it good if we are of the same age?"
"That, that..."
Yuduo thought about the rumors in the house about the eldest son of the Hu family, and pursed her lips and stopped talking. Lu Yunying couldn't hold it back, reached out and poked her bulging cheek, and then said:
"Don't worry, Madam will help me."
Mrs. Hu's idea was not what she expected. If her marriage was good for her father's career, even if she was not angry, she would not stop it.
But what if facilitating this incident can increase Aunt Qin's voice in the palace and cause damage to Mrs. Hu's own interests? Would you like to go even more extreme and shake her status as the principal wife?
As the Hu family fell into decline and time passed, the kindness gradually faded away.
But the feelings will gradually increase as time goes by, not to mention that the beloved woman gave birth to a smart and lovely child for him.
Tsk tsk, Lu Yunying does not underestimate the fighting power of human beings when it comes to their own interests.
