Hearing Feng Ziying's decisive words, Aunt Xue and Baochai were shocked.
No wonder it is said that in the Feng family, the father of the Feng family has more say than his parents. Even Aunt Xue once heard her brother mentioned in a very vague way that it was Feng's father who gained the power after he became the governor of Jiliao and the commander-in-chief of Liaodong. A series of achievements that have earned him constant accolades and awards from the court must have the shadow of the Feng family’s elder brother behind them.
The elder brother has always regretted that the third brother of the Feng family could not win over Lin Daiyu among the four major families, which was very regrettable.
It would definitely be a lie to say that Aunt Xue has no envy or other thoughts about the prosperous Wang family and the Jia family's glorious situation among the four major families.
Needless to say, the Wang family is my natal family, and no one can match the abilities of my elder brother. But the Jia family, although it was originally the most prosperous, has also declined and dimmed in recent years. It feels a bit like the Xue family and the Shi family, but who would have thought Suddenly Jia Yuanchun entered the palace and became a noble concubine, and the Jia family seemed to be in full swing again. This contrast with the Xue family's deteriorating situation naturally made Aunt Xue feel uncomfortable.
You must know that Baochai had originally wanted to enter the palace to be drafted, but entering the palace was also a job similar to betting. Thousands of people drafted the draft, and after entering the palace, nine out of ten people died quietly. Who would have thought that Jia Yuanchun would have such a good opportunity? Aunt Xue naturally knew that it probably had a lot to do with her brother.
Moreover, no one knows what the consequences of entering the palace as a concubine for Emperor Yonglong, who is in his fifties, will be. Although the Jia family can benefit, Yuanchun will have to pay a lifetime price. For her husband's early death, she only has one son and one son. Aunt Xue, who was a daughter but didn't have much idea, was naturally reluctant to let her daughter die to feed tigers.
Therefore, Aunt Xue was somewhat envious of her sister for the temporary prosperity that the Jia family had gained in exchange for Yuanchun, but she also sympathized with Yuanchun. She only wished that her daughter could marry a good family, which was considered as granting her own wish.
Now that all the hardships have finally come to an end, it's the Xue family's turn to feel proud.
"Brother Keng, do you have anything with your father and mother..." Aunt Xue also roughly knows that the Xue family's family background may not satisfy the Feng family. Once someone knows that the Feng family has a second wife and a wife, there will definitely be many people who will. Ask someone to come to the door, if the Feng family's parents are interested, then...
"Auntie, don't worry. This restoration of the second house to the title is only possible through my nephew's operation. My father has never intervened in Liaodong, and my mother doesn't know about it. As for what Auntie is worried about? My nephew will also make it clear to his mother. The Feng family My nephew and I don't actually need any support from our in-laws or family background. Is my nephew taking the path of a civil servant? Isn't it dependent on others? What my nephew wants more is a lady in charge who can settle down the backyard for my nephew. ? For my mother, well, Sister Bao is virtuous, generous and... can also resolve my mother's worries? It should also be the most suitable? ..."
Feng Ziying really wanted to say "can give birth to children", but she was afraid that Baochai would be shy, so she could only say in a very vague way that it could "resolve her mother's worries"? Aunt Xue and Baochai must have understood this too.
Who is Aunt Xue? Naturally, she understood it as soon as she heard it.
She had always felt that since the Feng family was a three-bedroom family, why did they choose a thin and frail woman like Lin Daiyu to be their legitimate wife?
At a glance, you can tell that Lin Daiyu's physique is not easy to give birth to. How can she compare with her own daughter? Aunt Xue didn't believe it, how could she not understand Duan's temperament? She probably couldn't be more stubborn than her own son.
It turns out that Aunt Xue is naturally a little unconvinced? But on the other hand, this Feng family man has a long-term love. Now it is a good thing for Baochai, that is, there are outsiders who want to fight this In terms of ideas, Duan is probably not as stubborn as his own son.
Thinking of this, Aunt Xue felt a lot more at ease. Seeing her daughter's eyes full of anticipation, her cheeks flushed, and her affectionate look, she was afraid that her heart had already been set on the young man in front of her, and she was just here. It was particularly annoying, so he stood up.
"Hmm? Brother Keng, just be aware of it. Girl Bao has been waiting for you for two years. She is already seventeen this year. I won't say much about the rest. You can make up your own mind."
After saying that, Aunt Xue went out and left.
I know that under such circumstances, it is inappropriate for unmarried men and women to be alone together, but my daughter has all her feelings for this person. Now that she has finally waited for an extremely satisfactory result, it is a bit unreasonable to care about this anymore.
Aunt Xue also knew that her daughter was a stickler for rules and would not do anything out of the ordinary. Other intimate behaviors between men and women were harmless, so she left this rare space for the two of them.
When Aunt Xue's figure disappeared, Baochai could not hold back her eyes. Her eyes were red and her mood was agitated, and she threw herself into Feng Ziying's arms.
After waiting for years, the clouds finally cleared, and she thought about how she was already seventeen. How could any famous lady have not yet been married and engaged at the age of seventeen? Although no one had ever talked about her, she knew that she was. The servants in Jia's house were also muttering, wondering whether they would not be able to get married. Mother was also under a lot of pressure. Even my aunt once asked her mother what her plans were, and she didn't know what to do. How to answer.
Seeing Baochai throw herself into his arms, he didn't even wait for Aunt Xue's footsteps to disappear. To be able to make Baochai act so violently, it can be seen that Baochai has indeed waited too hard and suppressed it for too long. Thinking about it, Feng Ziying also I feel a little apologetic.
And he even had to get Daiyu's forgiveness before coming here. Feng Ziying felt more and more sorry for the beauty in front of him.
Facing the beauty embracing her arms, Feng Ziying's heart was filled with emotions. Seeing De Baochai's blushing face, her beautiful eyes filled with emotion, and her red lips as fierce as fire, Feng Ziying could not hold back. She picked up the hibiscus and jade dimple and kissed her deeply. .
The pink cheeks are hot, the cloves are secretly spitting out, and it is inevitable that there will be another wanton and frivolous...
After a while, Feng Ziying simply picked up Baochai and walked to the chair in the inner room to sit down, savoring this rare tenderness.
…
After all, she couldn't cross the line. The beautiful woman in her arms had messy hair and beautiful eyes, but Feng Ziying had to rein in her horse. If she really wanted to continue, she would be unable to stop the car.
Fortunately, Baochai was also a law-abiding person and knew that this was the limit of what her mother could tolerate. If she continued any longer, she would be disrespecting herself. She quickly got up, straightened her clothes and tidied up her bun, and then slowly asked her lover about the specific situation.
Feng Ziying didn't hide anything and told the general situation truthfully.
"If there are no accidents, maybe there will be a result within two or three days. As soon as the imperial decree comes out, Brother Yu will apply to the Ministry of Rites for a concurrent post. It is estimated that the official document will be issued in three to five days, and then Brother Yu will entrust People come to the house to ask for marriage."
Baochai calmed down her turbulent emotions and slowly calmed down, "Brother Feng, do you mean that you will be released from Beijing soon?"
"Sister, are you worried about your marriage?" Feng Ziying asked with a smile.
Baochai blushed again and nodded slightly. It would be too hypocritical to say that he didn't care about this matter.
"Don't worry, sister. If you are a subordinate of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Brother Yu will still have half a month to take up his post. It is estimated that there should be no problem in applying to the Ministry of Rites for a concurrent marriage. In addition, it will not be a big deal to ask someone to arrange the marriage. It's just that the marriage will be necessary. After some discussion,..." Feng Ziying pondered for a moment, "I'm afraid Brother Yu won't be able to come back in a year and a half. You also know that Wan Jun is pregnant. I'm afraid that he won't be able to come with me. At most, I will let Youshi follow I will go there, and if my sister is willing, Brother Yu hopes that my sister can follow him there after they get married."
The Zhou Dynasty followed the holiday system of the Song and Ming Dynasties, which was slightly better than the previous Ming Dynasty, but not as loose as the previous Song Dynasty. Officials' children could have nine days of vacation for their marriages, and officials themselves could have a nine-day vacation based on the distance of their parents' homes. , but generally it cannot exceed one month.
Hearing what Feng Ziying said, Baochai felt reassured.
Her biggest worry is that the wedding has been delayed for too long. She is already seventeen. If it is postponed to next year, she will be eighteen. Not to mention she is too old. Moreover, she also knows that Shen Yixiu is pregnant. If Feng Ziying is exposed, it will definitely be impossible to follow her. If it is postponed until next year, after Shen Yixiu gives birth, he may follow.
And if she can get married this year, she can cleverly avoid Shen Yixiu, and Lin Daiyu will marry into the Feng family in two years, so this time will be almost exclusive to herself, even if you are like this As a concubine, it would not be a big problem for her, and she had never regarded Eryou as a threat.
"Brother Feng, if you want to go down, marry a chicken, follow a chicken, marry a dog, follow a dog. No matter where you go, no matter how far or how difficult it is, my little sister will naturally go with you. Sister Shen is pregnant and cannot travel far, so It will be inconvenient for only a year and a half after the birth, and Sister Lin will leave in another two or three years. Naturally, the younger sister will take care of her..."
Baochai's whispers were barely audible, and her face was even more rosy, but the look in her brows and the tone of her words were extremely firm.
Feng Ziying's heart skipped a beat, and then she was very moved. Baochai insisted on following her without asking where she was going. This sentiment was truly sincere.
"Sister, there is no need to worry too much about my aunt and family. It is estimated that Brother Yu will not be too far away. It is probably the prefectures surrounding Shuntian Prefecture in Beizhi Province. Even if something really happens, he can be brought back within two or three days. "
When Baochai heard this, he was even more happy. It would be great if it was around Shuntian Mansion.
Before, she was worried that if she went to remote places such as Shaanxi, Sichuan or Guangxi, she would not know whether she could adapt to the climate and diet. If it were around Shuntian Mansion, she had been in the capital city for several years, and the climate in the north was I'm already used to it, so there's nothing to worry about.
