"Sir, just have a drink with your second and third sisters and don't worry about me." Madam You smiled cheerfully and waved her hands, then brought up a plate of dishes.
Feng Ziying was too lazy to ask any more questions. She looked at Sister You sipping her wine with a drunken sideways glance, her white and tender face was filled with red clouds, and the lingering affection between her brows and eyes was lingering.
"Brother Feng, if you really want to go south, why don't you disguise yourself as a man and accompany you? I heard that Japanese pirates still frequently raid Ningbo and Quanzhou, and even go deep into inland areas. If public security is not stable, it will be difficult for the garrison troops to resist..."
Seeing Sister You's concern, Feng Ziying felt warm in her heart.
Not to mention, he only learned about the situation in Southern Zhili and Fujian and Zhejiang through Long Jinwei and the Ministry of Punishment after he was determined to go south. Although the Japanese pirates are now far less rampant than before the Renchen Japanese Rebellion, they are still quite threatening.
After the Japanese Rebellion subsided, there were still a large number of homeless samurai and ronin who had no way to make a living and began to go to sea. Therefore, after a few years of silence, the momentum of the Japanese pirates increased again in the past two years, although it could not keep up with the Imjin Japanese Rebellion. before, but it is still much more arrogant than six or seven years ago.
Of course, most of these Japanese pirates are small groups and pose a great threat to local public security. However, it is far from saying that conquering cities will endanger the Zhou regime.
"No, if I want to go, I will go with the adults from the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Industry, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. I will follow Jiwei. If there is danger, they should be the first to bear the brunt. I guess Lieutenant Long Jin is also afraid of it. Someone should follow us south." Feng Ziying smiled and picked up a chopstick of venison. "Third sister, come and try this seabass. It was sent by Tianjin Wei. It tastes great. Second sister, you can also try it. …”
Feng Ziying picked up a piece of sea bass with chopsticks for each of Third Sister You and Second Sister You. Third Sister You was charming and cross-eyed, while Second Sister You was timid and added wine. Feng Ziying felt quite happy with her life.
After a busy day with official duties, it’s really nice to take a break and relax here. However, I’m afraid there won’t be many more days left. Even Qi Shi is urging himself to go south as soon as possible, and the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works are also busy over there. Preparations, if there is no accident, I am afraid that we will go south within three to five days.
"Brother Feng, don't think so. The Japanese pirates are just like the horse thieves in Ganzhou. Once they encounter them, they won't care who is the leader. They only want your property and life. Maybe the horse thieves may even consider killing the imperial court. The influence brought by officials, but the Japanese pirates will not care about this." Third Sister You was still a little worried, so she reminded her, "I think Lieutenant Long's abilities are limited, and he may not be able to..."
You Sanjie had seen Zhang Jin's ability in Ganzhou, and it was very average. However, those with thousands of households like Long Jinwei may not necessarily be highly skilled in martial arts. Most of them can only be promoted if they are able to do things well and have a background. Those who are highly skilled in martial arts are also He's just a thug.
"Well, I'll think about it for a while." Feng Ziying also knew that Third Sister You was also a restless mistress. She couldn't stay in the capital city for only one month, and she often had some disagreements with Mrs. You. , so I wanted to go south with myself.
Hearing what Feng Ziying said, Third Sister You immediately felt better and quickly served Feng Ziying with food and wine.
"Second sister, third sister, how many people have been invited to the room?" Feng Ziying watched the suet-white jade-like hand swaying in front of her eyes through her drunkenness. She couldn't help but squeeze it and asked smoothly, "Are you enough to serve?"
"My mother invited a couple. The man stayed at the door, the woman did some chores, and a widow was responsible for cleaning. Our family has endured hardships, and we can get by without anyone to wait on us..." You San When Feng Ziying held her hand, my sister felt hot in her heart. She quickly pulled her hand back and glared at Feng Ziying, who was a little drunk.
Next to her, Second Sister You was hiding her mouth and snickering, which made Third Sister You even more upset. Seeing that her mother had gone out, she gritted her teeth and said softly: "Brother Feng, I also know that Second Sister and I are both She's like Puliu, and she can't afford to serve a hero like Brother Feng..."
Feng Ziying saw that Third Sister You also had beautiful eyes and loving eyes, and blushed on her face. Such words were even more shocking. Her hand that had been taken away again reached out and pulled it back, "Why did Third Sister say this?"
"..., my little sister knows that your Feng family has a large family, and it is difficult to get into it. However, my little sister and second sister are both from clean and good families. If, if..."
Third Sister You was heartbroken, but she couldn't break free, and she couldn't speak anymore.
"What if it is?" Feng Ziying smiled softly and said more and more wildly.
"If so, if Brother Feng wants my sisters to serve you, you can welcome them back someday. But if Brother Feng only covets my sister's body and raises her outside, then my sister will definitely not be able to..."
Third Sister You finally gritted her teeth and said it in one breath, her heart was trembling. Like Second Sister You, her two pairs of wonderful eyes fell on Feng Ziying.
Even though she and her second sister are not official ladies, their biological father is also a military officer, but their family is in decline, and their mother remarried, and they are reduced to this. However, even Xiaojiabiyu cannot be someone's wife, and she will have no status in the future, and maybe that will happen. One day, a lady comes to your door. You are not even qualified to kneel down and beg for mercy. Even if you give birth to a child, you may not be able to enter the Feng family ancestral hall. If you can carry the door as a concubine, you will at least have a layer of protection.
For a moment, the room was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.
And Mrs. You stuck her butt out and pressed her face against the crack of the door, eager to hear the answer from the Feng family elder.
Feng Ziying didn't expect that Third Sister You would actually say such words. Although she was already a little drunk, her consciousness was very clear. Her request was also normal, that is, she should not be a concubine, but should be carried into Feng Ziying's house as a concubine. Go home.
But for Feng Ziying, taking a concubine is naturally okay. The problem is that if he has to take a concubine before he marries a wife, he has to talk to his mother about it, and he has to consider whether it is appropriate or not.
Seeing Feng Ziying picking up the wine glass and silently speaking, Third Sister You and Second Sister You turned pale. Could it be that Brother Feng had never thought of admitting them into the family? It turns out that all those sweet words were just deception, were they really just for fun?
"Of course I know the affection that the second and third sisters have for me, but I haven't married yet. If I want to accept you two into the house first, it's not impossible, but I need to talk to my mother and aunt first..."
Feng Ziying put down her wine glass, and one word made the two You girls feel more at ease. Mrs. You outside the door also kept saying Amitabha in her heart, but they also knew that it was not an easy task to carry it into the Feng Mansion. Before Feng Ziying got married, Feng's mother could decide whether they would live or die. If she didn't agree, the two of them would never enter the house.
"But there is no need to worry about the second and third sisters. My mother has always listened to me. She originally said that she hoped that I could marry and take concubines as soon as possible to continue the Feng family's legacy. I guess that the second and third sisters' bodies are capable of My mother likes it..."
Feng Ziying's slow words finally made the two daughters of the You family feel relieved. When Mrs. You went to the Ningguo Mansion, she inquired about the Feng family. She knew that although the Feng family's inner house was dominated by the Duan family, it was because Feng Ziying was the only legitimate son. , the big and small Duans were very fond of Feng Ziying, so Feng Ziying's words were basically ignored.
The words were clear, and the two daughters of the You family were immediately relieved. Madam You, who had been hiding and eavesdropping outside, was also elated. She finally had someone to support her for the rest of her life.
After coming to the Capital City, You Lao Niang has been thinking about how to live in the Capital City in the future. Ganzhou City is considered a big city in Gansu Town, but after entering the Capital City, You Lao Niang I feel that even living in a shack outside the city is better than Ganzhou City.
Although the capital city is rich and prosperous, the expenses are staggering. All kinds of expenses cost money, and everything is extremely expensive. Even water costs one or two hundred copper coins a month. Think about it. It's all heartbreaking.
This also made You Lao Niang deeply feel that this capital city was really only a place that the rich could enjoy.
The Ningguo Mansion is unreliable. The eldest sister is not her biological child, and she can also see that although You is the mistress in name, the son-in-law is not a worry-free master, and he does whatever he wants. , there are no sure names among the actors, actresses, and prostitutes in the mansion, and Youshi can't control them at all, which makes the Ningguo mansion a mess. No wonder the third sister said that she must never enter the Ningguo mansion, so as not to tarnish her reputation in the future.
Now I am finally looking forward to seeing the sun rise in the clouds. If the second sister and the third sister can be the concubines of the Feng family master, and give birth to a son and a half daughters in the future, then I will have a backer in this life, food and clothing. No more worries.
Seeing that Feng Ziying was so drunk that she finally fell asleep at her desk, Sanjie You quickly supported him.
Second Sister You and Third Sister You didn't know whether to leave Feng Ziying to sleep here, or to ask Ruixiang from the outer courtyard to notify the carriage. In such a situation, they would definitely not be able to ride back.
"Third Sister, Second Sister, why don't you just let him sleep in the room? You and I will also enter his room..." Mrs. You thought it would be better to just let the raw rice cook. This is the oldest person in the Feng family. At first glance, Lang was also a man who valued love and kept his promises. He might be able to carry his two daughters into Feng's house earlier.
Third Sister You's face was full of anger and she glared at her mother, "How can that be done? There is no place for people to laugh at you!"
"Then how can you leave with him looking like this?" Mrs. You glared at Third Sister You, and then at her second daughter, "Second Sister, go and help him into your room."
But Second Sister You was shy and uneasy. She glanced at her angry sister and then at her mother, not knowing what to do.
