"Why can't you be my concubine? She is already so old. Who else would want her besides me?" Li Shouyang said disdainfully. Although he liked Wen Shichu's appearance, he didn't think she had the talent. How amazing.
"Sister-in-law, so what if she comes from the palace? Am I not worthy of her as the noble son of the Marquis? It's her honor that I can set my sights on her. Sister-in-law, just tell her and she will definitely be impatient. Promise! Isn’t it better to be my concubine with fine clothes and fine food than to show her face outside and be a nurturing aunt? "
Li Shouyang said confidently, thinking that Wen Shichu would definitely agree to him impatiently.
When Mrs. Wu Yanghou saw this self-righteous uncle, she was very upset: "If I were willing to be a concubine, I would have become the concubine of other high-ranking adults. How could I like you? You have only one You have a good identity, what other advantages can she like? You should give up this idea!"
When Li Shouyang heard what she said, he suddenly became angry and blushed: "I, I'm handsome! I'm noble and rich! Why don't you like me?"
"Hmph, why don't you say you're okay, you're a pervert, and you have a bunch of women in the backyard? Why should Aunt Wen be willing to degenerate to compete with a bunch of women like you? You're not qualified!" Mrs. Wuyang Hou didn't give this dandy a damn at all. Uncle saves face.
"Sister-in-law! Are you my sister-in-law, or Miss Wen's sister-in-law? I've fallen in love with her, shouldn't you help me get her? Why do you keep hitting me? I don't care! You have to help me and make her agree. Marry me!" Li Shouyang couldn't persuade Mrs. Wu Yanghou, so he started to mess around.
Mrs. Wu Yanghou was troubled by him and had a headache. She also heard that he had moved her mother-in-law, the old lady of the house, out of the house. She had no choice but to promise to mention this matter to Wen Shichu, but she did not dare to vouch for it. Let Li Shouyang not have any hope.
Li Shouyang was overjoyed when he heard that she agreed to tell Wen Shichu about this. In his opinion, it was no surprise that this matter would fulfill his wish. He didn't think that Wen Shichu looked down on him.
Mrs. Wu Yanghou breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her self-important brother-in-law finally leaving. But when she thought of talking to Wen Shichu, her head hurt again!
How should she talk to Wen Shichu? She still wanted to be ashamed. She just helped her solve her daughter's hidden danger not long ago, and now she turned around and asked her to be her dandy uncle's concubine? Is this repayment of kindness with vengeance?
Mrs. Hou was so angry that she wanted to beat Li Shouyang. If Li Shouyang was not her brother-in-law, but her son, he would have been beaten until he was lying on the bed and unable to get off the floor.
However, Li Shouyang was the sweetheart of her mother-in-law. The old lady loved this young son very much and almost answered his requests. She would definitely agree to this kind of concubine. After all, no matter how powerful Wen Shichu was, she was just a retired palace maid. The old lady must think that an older If a retired palace maid becomes a concubine for her own son, she is exalting that palace maid.
Therefore, Mrs. Hou could not disobey her mother-in-law, so she had no choice but to go to Wen Shichu.
When Wen Shichu was summoned by Madam Hou again, she felt a little confused. After all, Madam Hou was the mistress of the house. She usually had too many things to do and didn't have time to see her. But it was abnormal to look for her now. …
Li Minghui's matter has passed, and Zhou Shaowen has disappeared a long time ago. Logically speaking, this matter is over, so Mrs. Hou should not come to her again because of this matter?
While Wen Shichu was thinking, he came to Mrs. Hou. She bowed, and Mrs. Hou gently called her up and let her drink tea. Her attitude was so kind, which made Wen Shichu even more suspicious. , either adultery or theft.
Mrs. Hou didn't know that Wen Shichu had so much on her mind. When she saw Wen Shichu come in, she looked at her carefully. After looking at her, she just sighed that Li Shouyang's eyes were indeed sharp enough. Such a low-key beauty was stunned. After being discovered by him, why didn't he think Wen Shichu was really attractive before?
Although she is in her twenties, she has skin as smooth as cream. Her skin alone is stunning enough, not to mention she is also very beautiful, with almond-shaped eyes and peach cheeks, lips as red as cherry blossoms, and a slim figure with well-shaped bumps. And because they teach etiquette, they are well-organized, and their movements are charming and full of charm.
How on earth did such a beauty survive in the palace to the age of leaving the palace without being adopted by the emperor? This idea suddenly came to Mrs. Hou's mind. With such an appearance, she could escape safely from the dangerous palace. It should not be underestimated!
Mrs. Hou suddenly had a new understanding of Wen Shichu.
In fact, she was overthinking it. Wen Shichu's current appearance was only slowly changed after she came. The original owner was not so outstanding before. She was just a little prettier, not stunning, so she could She lived peacefully in the Queen's palace as her minister of honor.
Wen Shichu didn't know that Mrs. Hou thought of her as a scheming person. Of course, she was indeed quite scheming now.
The expression on Mrs. Hou's face was subtle, her eyes were still evasive when looking at her, and she looked guilty and embarrassed at first glance.
"What's the matter with you, Madam?" Wen Shichu simply said it himself.
"Ahem..." Mrs. Hou made a fist and coughed a few times before she had to say: "Actually, there is indeed one thing."
Mrs. Hou closed her eyes and finally spoke with difficulty: "I wonder, Aunt Wen, what plans do you have for your life?"
When I heard this, I was startled for the first time. It turned out that I was asking myself this question? But what does his life-long event have to do with Mrs. Hou? But even though she was puzzled, she didn't ask, she just replied: "Yes, in one month, after I leave your job, I will start to deal with my life-long affairs."
Mrs. Hou was shocked. She didn't expect Wen Shichu to say that, and she quickly asked: "Have you already settled your life-long affairs? Do you have a fiancé?"
Wen Shichu just smiled and had no intention of telling her about Shi Zhu. After all, Mrs. Hou was just her employer. The relationship between them was not deep enough to talk about her personal affairs. She revealed a little about her own affairs. Yes, but there is no need to explain what happened between yourself and Shi Ru.
When Mrs. Hou saw this, she didn't want to ask any more questions, but she was extremely anxious inside. After hearing Shichu's behavior, she didn't deny what she said, indicating that she had acquiesced. Then how could she mention that her brother-in-law wanted to take her as a concubine? thing?
"Hey, actually it's not my place to ask about this matter. It's just that my unlucky brother-in-law came to me for help, so I had to ask for him." Mrs. Hou said in embarrassment and glanced at Wen Shichu's expression. , seeing that she showed no signs of being angry, he breathed a sigh of relief, then he said with a flushed face, "My brother-in-law has taken a liking to you and wants to take you in... What do you think?"
