The sharp-tongued Qingwen was speechless, but Zijuan also knew that girls like herself and Qingwen were eighteen years old, and not to mention their status as slaves, they were truly masters. Released, but where to go?
If you marry a poor family, you may not be able to adapt to such a poor life. Who in a good family can think highly of a freed girl like you?
If you are married to a young man from the palace, how can you become a common maid with your own girl?
Seeing that Zijuan was silent, Qingwen raised her head slightly and said leisurely: "Perhaps people outside are envious of us following a girl who is going to be a grandma, like playing chess, serving as a bookkeeper, and painting in the mansion. Do you dare to say that I am not envious in my heart? But? How did they ever know that we actually had no choice a long time ago."
Zijuan was surprised, looked at Qingwen carefully, and asked seriously: "Qingwen, are you still unwilling to follow your girl and marry to Feng Mansion? What do you think?"
Qingwen shook her head, her face a little complicated, "Uncle Feng is so flattering, am I an ungrateful person? I'm just worried that the girl treats me well, and I follow her like this, if it's the uncle, if it's the uncle..."
Zijuan was so smart, she understood immediately and laughed, "Are you worried that Uncle Feng will treat you differently and make it difficult for you to get along between your girl and your uncle?"
Zijuan was still very happy for her sister.
After all, Qingwen is very talkative and can be liked by both Miss Shen and Uncle Feng. In the future, if there is such a person to go between the eldest and the third eldest brother, the relationship will be much better.
But what she said now is a matter of fact, and it is not a matter of matter. The key lies in how you come from.
A girl can win the favor of the uncle alone. No matter how broad-minded this Shen girl, who is now a young lady and will be a grandmother in the future, is, I am afraid she will feel a little uncomfortable in her heart. Moreover, she is the maid she brought here, and this maid is the uncle. He was "recommended" to go to the Shen Mansion. I'm afraid everyone has to think carefully about how to deal with such a complicated relationship in the future.
It is even more difficult for someone like Qingwen who is in a weak position but has such a straightforward and forthright temperament. No wonder she is in a dilemma.
You can't flatter your love, don't you know how to flatter me? But how to deal with Miss Shen who treated her very well and even brought her into the Feng Mansion?
You must know that Miss Shen actually has the right not to bring her into the Feng Mansion.
Qingwen bit her lip and nodded, "If there is a rift between the uncle and the girl because of me, I would rather not enter the Feng Mansion."
Zijuan believed that Qingwen was telling the truth. She knew this sister's temperament, but she still shook her head: "If you don't join Feng's house, I'm afraid Uncle Feng and your girl will have more resentment and estrangement."
Qingwen was stunned for a moment, but then she understood and sighed slightly.
"Uncle Feng is afraid that he will think that your girl will be the eldest lady in the future, so why are you so concerned about a maid he likes? If Uncle Feng has such a view of your girl, then in the future..." Zijuan shook her head.
If a grown-up woman is thought by her husband to be jealous of a girl, her impression will be very bad, and her husband's family will also be unhappy in the future.
"Yeah, if I say I don't want to go to Feng Mansion with her, I'm afraid the girl will think I'm being arrogant and deliberately trying to manipulate her." Qingwen smiled bitterly.
"So Qingwen, you don't need to think so much. Just follow your girl there. You have said that your girl is kind-hearted but independent. You must understand this clearly and she will not take it into account. Compared with these, you just need to pay a little more attention and don't overdo it..."
Zijuan's words made Qingwen couldn't help but roll her eyes at her, "Little Hoof, do you really think I'm Diaochan Zhaojun anymore? I'm taking the spotlight. Even if I'm more beautiful than others, how can I compete with others?" My young lady comparison? No matter how ignorant I am, I still know the rules. What I’m afraid of is that if the uncle doesn’t care so much, you might also know that the uncle is over there in Ma Xiang Hutong, with the two sisters of Grandma Dongfu Zhen. Being raised as a foreign wife by the uncle, the uncle has never been taboo. If it were like this in the mansion,..."
Zijuan naturally knew about Er You, and even her own girl knew that You San was somewhat friends with the girl, but her girl never mentioned it, assuming that there were no such two people. She did not expect that the Shen girl also I know, "Your girl also knows?"
"I've said it before, the uncle has never been taboo here, that's why I'm afraid..." Qingwen bit her lip and struggled.
Qingwen is naturally worried that if Feng Ziying really likes her, when he marries the girl, if he loves her a little more, it may not matter for a while, but as time goes by, the girl may not be in the same mood as she is now. It's peaceful and atmospheric.
Zicuckoo couldn't help but sigh, if Uncle Feng likes it, who can say anything? Who can stop me? Even grandma can only pretend to be generous or indifferent with a smile.
He just wants to stay in your maid's room for two more nights. A stupider person would probably be overjoyed, but if he is smart, he should understand that if he doesn't have an explanation with grandma, then it's not Good thing.
The relationship between Qingwen and the girl from the Shen family is no better than the relationship between himself and his own girl. If Uncle Feng rests in his room for one or two more nights in the future..., ah, bah, Zicuckoo's cheeks are burning for no reason, why is he following Qingwen? Hoof's thoughts changed, and he became so shameless?
Qingwen was still immersed in her own thoughts, but she didn't notice that her sisters suddenly became shy at this moment.
"Qingwen, I advise you not to think too much. It's useless to think too much. I think if your girl is capable, she will definitely be able to think of this. Even if Uncle Feng really loves you, she can also advise Uncle Feng not to think about it. Pay attention to these. Do you think that Uncle Feng will only have one girl from your family? Or is it just you?" Zijuan thought for a while and then said: "You said that Uncle Feng is not taboo here, maybe The two men at Erma Lane waited until your girl passed through the door and entered the house, and then they chose a time to carry her into the house."
Qingwen didn't expect this. After hearing what Zijuan said, she felt that there was some truth in it, "Zijuan, you said that Uncle Feng still has concubines after marrying my girl? Doesn't he still have Miss Lin?"
Zijuan also rolled her eyes and returned it to Qingwen, "Little Hoof, do you really think that your girl and you can be favored alone? Don't you already know what kind of person Uncle Feng is? My girl is getting married. Uncle Feng, that will be more than two years later. Can the ladies in the Feng Mansion still afford to wait? Uncle Feng is the only one with three bedrooms in the Feng family. I heard that the ladies wish they could have their grandchildren right away. , I guess those two in Maxiang Hutong might be pregnant if they weren't worried that your girl hadn't passed the door yet. If she had passed the door, even if the two in Maxiang Hutong didn't carry her into the Feng Mansion, my wife would definitely They will force the Feng family to take concubines, unless..."
"Unless my girl can give birth to an heir for the Feng family as soon as possible?" Qingwen reacted.
"Even if your girl can give birth to an heir to continue the Feng family's legacy, given the current situation of the Feng family, I'm afraid the wives in the house will still find ways to get Uncle Feng to take concubines. These days, one or two can't be guaranteed. ..." Zijuan shook her head.
These words made Qingwen a little shaken, and her mind became more and more confused. She didn't know what she should do in the future.
Seeing Qingwen's tangled face, Zicuckoo also laughed, "Little hoof, you don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings. To be favored by Uncle Feng, if it had been anyone else, they would have been able to wake up laughing even when they fell asleep. Only you can still do it." Worrying about this and that, how can it be so complicated? If that's the case, you just want to please your young lady and show your loyalty with all your heart. Is there anything your girl can do to you?"
Qingwen was also amused by Zijuan's words.
Also, it is useless to think so much now. It is impossible for me not to follow the lady there. After that, with Uncle Feng's mentality, I will definitely not be able to escape. What I will do when the time comes, I can only use troops to cover up the water.
The two girls also slowly put aside other thoughts and chatted about gossip inside and outside the house.
"I didn't expect that Miss Lin would invite my girl to Dahuguo Temple. This is the place where my girl and Uncle Feng met for the first time, so my girl was also very happy and thought this was a good sign. Her first impression of Miss Lin was Okay." Qingwen looked at the two people in front of them who stopped, and then stopped too.
"Oh, that would be great. If your girl and my girl can be as close as sisters, then we people will be much more relaxed in the future." Zicuckoo couldn't help but clap her hands, "What I fear most is that mortals will suffer when gods fight. , it would be best if we could avoid this kind of thing."
The two maids here were talking sweetly, but Shen Yixiu and Lin Daiyu over there were slowly entering the warm-hearted mode.
After talking for a while, Shen Yixiu and Lin Daiyu both had a basic understanding of each other. They both knew that if there was no big accident in the future, the two of them would never be able to get rid of their sister-in-law relationship, whether they liked it or not. Even if they hate each other, they both have to accept this relationship and face the reality of sharing a husband.
"Don't envy me, sister. My sister is already nineteen, and my sister is only fourteen. When she gets married two years later, she will only be sixteen. By then, we will still have time to be sisters. We Suzhou people are not many in the capital city. , it is rare to meet such an informed and expressive sister. My sister hopes that my sister can come to my sister's place more often in the future. I also heard that my sister is outstanding in poetry and prose. She is not talented, and I also want to be here with my sister. Having more discussions can be considered as a way to pass the time..."
Shen Yixiu's words were sincere. It was so easy to meet such a countryman and "sister-in-law" in the capital city for so many years. Even though he felt a little unspeakable in his heart, he thought that this relationship could no longer be broken off. , then it is better to treat each other calmly, and maybe we can form a good relationship.
When Daiyu heard what Shen Yixiu said, she quickly said: "Sister is too polite. As long as she doesn't dislike it, I want to come and bother her more often. I'm afraid that she will get bored by then..."
The two held hands and said "sisters and sisters" again, so affectionate.
It was already night when Feng Ziying got the news.
He felt a little nervous about this meeting between the king and the king.
But he also knew that no matter from which point of view, Shen Yixiu could not mess up this meeting. After all, he only had ten days to get married to her. If he made it unhappy at this time, it would only be for himself and her. She added to the problem.
Yun Shang went to Shen's Mansion, and Jin Chuan'er went to Rong Guo Mansion. From the information obtained from both parties, we can have a basic understanding of the general situation of Wang's meeting today.
It seems that they are pretty good, and they treat each other like guests. It seems that Feng Ziying's feeling can be described by such a nondescript idiom, I hope.
"Don't worry, sir. Qingwen has already said it. Miss Shen's mood was very calm after she returned, and she was even a little happy and expectant. She also welcomes Miss Lin to come to the house in the future. Well, Qingwen means to stay until After Miss Shen gets married, Miss Lin is welcome to come here."
Yun Shang and Jin Chuan'er both smiled when they saw Feng Ziying thinking deeply.
It's rare to see this man with such an expression over family matters. When the two future grandmothers meet, even if Feng Ziying doesn't give instructions, they will take the initiative to inquire. These gossip stories are simply the most intolerable for these girls.
Feng Ziying smiled bitterly.
He was not entirely worried about this, but about something else.
Prince Zhongshun came today, mainly to talk about the affairs of Haitong Bank. Everything went well and everyone was satisfied. However, one thing he mentioned in passing made Feng Ziying uneasy.
It is said that the Dowager Empress was very sorry that Feng Ziying's second uncle died of illness and was unable to ascend the throne, because Feng Ziying's deceased second aunt was a distant relative of the Dowager Princess.
Feng Ziying once heard her father talk about this distant relative, but this distant relative was too far away, so even her father mentioned it casually and dismissively.
If you want to talk about it in detail, it can probably only be regarded as the same county, the same township and the same surname. In terms of seniority, it may be ranked higher, but in terms of kinship, it is estimated that it was at least more than ten generations ago, maybe still Meng Yuan. It's time.
Unexpectedly, Prince Zhongshun could actually mention this matter to her, so Feng Ziying felt that it must not be that simple.
It seemed a bit too abrupt to establish relations with the Feng family at this time.
What can such an extremely distant relative mean?
Nothing can be explained.
But it's a signal.
Not a good signal.
This means that the Feng family may be involved in some things they want to avoid.
King Zhongshun didn't make it too clear, mainly because the situation of the concubine was a bit complicated.
Feng Ziying had done some research and found out that the concubine was not particularly favored when she was young, so she raised the brothers Emperor Yonglong and King Zhongshun who lost their mother when they were young. However, as Emperor Yonglong and King Zhongshun came of age, the concubine As he got older, he gradually gained the trust of Emperor Yuanxi. It is said that Prince Yizhong was dethroned and the crown prince was re-established, and the concubine also played a big role in this.
This is a bit complicated.
At least Feng Ziying didn't understand, or it was a coincidence, the story of this concubine was too bizarre.
