Since they both live in the same courtyard, the You family's mother and daughter naturally win over Xin'er.
I heard that the master of the Lin family is here, and he is bringing the girl from the Lin family with him.
The second sister and the third sister were very nervous.
Although it was a little embarrassing, I still had to come over to see him.
After all, they are the future bride of the Feng family, and they don't dare to lose their etiquette.
At that moment, the two sisters asked Mrs. You to lead them over.
As soon as the three ladies entered the house, they greeted Li Mengshi and Li Wan first.
Daiyu looked at the mother and daughter, feeling a little confused.
I don’t know who these three ladies are, but the two younger ones are very eye-catching.
They are all dressed up as women.
The clothes on the head and face are gorgeous and extraordinary.
A person with a beautiful appearance is better than a fairy.
One is as slender as a flying swallow.
I don’t know whose daughter-in-law is so beautiful.
To be able to appear in the back house of Feng Mansion, could it be...
The Li family’s marriage certificate?
When Daiyu was confused, she found that the three of them were also looking at her cautiously.
At this time, I heard Li Mengshi introduce:
"Miss Lin, this is You Lao'an, the mother of Grandma Jia Fuzhen of Ning State, and we are already close to you."
Upon hearing this, Daiyu hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "I've met Mr. You Lao'an!"
But I was even more confused.
How come relatives from Ningguo Mansion appear in Feng Mansion?
I saw Mrs. You with a smile on her face, looking at her somewhat flatteringly, and saying again and again:
"Don't you dare! I have heard of Miss Lin's name from my eldest daughter."
"When I saw her today, she was a hundred times better than what she said. She is even more beautiful than the fairy in the sky!"
The two daughters will be subordinate to each other in the future, and You Lao Niang herself also pointed to Feng Yibo for her retirement.
It is inevitable to be a little flattering towards this future lady of the Feng family.
Daiyu didn't know what was going on, so she quickly said:
"You Lao'an is so complimentary that Daiyu is too ashamed to deserve it."
"Deserve it! Deserve it!"
Mrs. You was smiling all over her face, which made Daiyu even more confused.
Seeing that the two of them had finished their greetings, Li Mengshi said with a smile:
"These two are her daughters and Yibo's aunts."
"The second sister of the You family!" "The third sister!"
Following Li Mengshi's introduction, the two sisters immediately announced their family status.
They all said in unison: "I've seen Miss Lin!"
The two sisters were inevitably nervous when they met Daiyu.
Although the fragile woman in front of them is young, her status is nobler than them.
To be precise, there is innate suppression in identity.
This is the feeling of oppression felt by a married woman.
The two of them were extremely nervous when they met for the first time.
Today, both of them dressed up deliberately, not daring to make any mistakes.
At this time, he also rushed forward to avoid missing etiquette.
Want to make a perfect first impression.
Daiyu was stunned at this moment, looking a little at a loss.
No matter how smart she was, how could she predict such a scene?
However, she finally realized what Mrs. You had done to please her just now.
At the same time, there was inevitably a trace of sadness rising in my heart.
She greeted with a forced smile and said:
"It turned out to be two...two aunts."
It would be embarrassing to almost call her sister.
If the house is confiscated, just call.
Now that she has taken a concubine, calling her sister will lose her identity.
Qingwen and Xueyan, who were supporting them, felt Lin Daiyu's hand clenched tightly.
Suddenly they looked at the two You sisters as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
They had all served in Jia's house, so like Daiyu, they still had some doubts in their hearts.
Since she is Grandma Zhen’s sister, how can she become someone’s concubine?
And they are still sisters!
At this moment, I heard the maid outside say: "The uncle is here!"
The curtain cage was lifted, and Feng Yibo came in with a smile.
He had just had local products brought from the south of the Yangtze River and rare things from overseas put into the warehouse.
I went to meet Li Shouzhong in front again, and then rushed here to see Li Mengshi.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw the mother and daughter of the You family still standing at the door.
Such a scene made his heart tighten.
Feng Yibo planned to place the You sisters with Baochai, his second wife.
But he hasn't told anyone about this thought yet.
Especially Daiyu is still young.
And it's not appropriate to talk about this before going through the door.
In addition, on the way back, although the two met many times, Lin Ruhai was always by their side.
It is even less possible to talk about the You sisters.
On the contrary, it was Lin Ruhai who mentioned Miaoyu in front of Daiyu.
Obviously Daiyu already knew something about this sister.
"Lan'er has met uncle!"
Jia Lan made no mistake this time and immediately stepped forward to salute Feng Yibo when he saw him.
Feng Yibo casually touched his head and said:
"I brought a lot of rare things from overseas this time. I'll have someone take you to the warehouse to look at them later. If you like them, take them away."
Seeing Jia Lan's surprised smile, Feng Yibo stepped forward to greet Li Mengshi and Li Wan.
After the two parties greeted each other, they sat down one after another.
Daiyu, the future lady of Feng Mansion, was present, but the You sisters were still too nervous to say anything.
He only looked at Feng Yibo from time to time.
Daiyu has returned to normal, with a warm smile on her face.
Feng Yibo knew that she was not as calm as she appeared.
This can be seen from the attitude of the two maids beside her.
In particular, Qingwen was someone who couldn't hide things. She was very upright and would glare at the You sisters from time to time.
Li Wan sensed the subtle atmosphere in the room, so he broke the awkwardness by speaking first:
"Yi Bo came just in time. I just asked Sister Lin if she would go back to Jia Mansion with me tomorrow?"
Feng Yibo responded quickly after hearing this: "Uncle Lin has just recovered from a serious illness, and he has been tired of traveling all the way. I thought I would rest for two days before going to Rong Mansion to meet the elders, so as not to look tired and make the old lady worry in vain."
"That's true!"
Li Wan nodded when he heard this, then hesitated and said:
"It's just that our ancestors are worried because they have already gained the trust!"
By this time, Jia Lian should have sent people back to report the news, and the Jia family must have almost known about it.
Feng Yibo pondered for a moment and then said:
"I will discuss with Uncle Lin later and ask someone to go to Rong Mansion to inform him first, so as not to wait over there."
Li Wan smiled and nodded: "That's appropriate."
Everyone chatted for a while and then dispersed.
Daiyu was arranged in a wing in the inner courtyard.
Although the journey was tiring, I couldn't fall asleep after washing myself and taking a shower.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, his eyes were a little wandering.
Qingwen saw her thoughts and whispered:
"Girl, there are some things it's not my turn to say."
After speaking here, he paused for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said:
"But before the girl came in, Uncle Feng took two rooms. Isn't it a bit..."
Xue Yan also said angrily, echoing:
"That's right! And it's not just a house, it's a concubine!"
She heard about the division of concubines in Jia Mansion.
Most of the maids like her are housemates.
Although she could be an aunt, she would never be as good as a good concubine.
Qingwen was even more dissatisfied when she saw that Xueyan also supported her:
"Isn't that right! Moreover, the uncle didn't say hello and just let the girl see him like this. This is not an honest thing to do!"
When Daiyu heard what the two said, she withdrew her misty eyes.
For a moment, his expression was inevitably complicated.
After a while, he seemed to have figured out something.
The whole person relaxed, showed a smile, and said:
"You two are still young and don't know many things. It's no wonder that Brother Feng is responsible for this."
After saying this, she sighed and continued:
"Alas! People like him will be the same no matter who they are."
Perhaps she was a little tired, so Daiyu leaned sideways on the bed and began to untie Feng Yibo in a low voice.
"Others may take concubines because they are lustful, but the Feng family brother is not."
Her eyes were a little blurry, as if she had gone back to the past.
"Our marriage almost failed in the beginning because I was weak and might not be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility of being an heir."
"Later, my father agreed to let my elder sister become a concubine, so Uncle Li and my aunt here reluctantly agreed to the marriage."
Lin Ruhai told her about Miaoyu, but did not tell her everything.
Daiyu only thought that Miaoyu was an orphan in the clan, so she was taken as her concubine.
I still feel a little guilty about this.
"Feng's family is very small. Even if I come in the door in the future, I will have to help him. Now it happens that it saves me trouble."
She had seriously considered this.
Especially her body and bones are weak, as was her mother back then.
Lin Ruhai now also has two aunts, both of whom were given to Zhang Luo by Jia Min.
It has not affected the couple's relationship.
Even after Jia Min passed away, Lin Ruhai didn't want to find a stepmother.
This shows his professionalism.
Daiyu naturally hopes that Feng Yibo is like her father, but she also knows.
The Feng family will have a second bedroom in the future.
Therefore, she will inevitably have to make some plans.
But it would be at least four or five years before she could enter the Feng family.
There is no need to rush.
After some self-comfort, Lin Daiyu felt better.
At this moment, he looked at the two little maids in front of him, with expressions of confusion on their faces, and suddenly smiled and joked:
"I was still thinking that if you two could fall in the eyes of brother Feng, we wouldn't have to separate!"
"girl!"
Qingwen was immediately embarrassed.
Xue Yan looked indifferent.
Seeing this, Daiyu felt much better and said with a smile:
"Okay, after a month of hard work, go to bed early today!"
After saying this, he fell asleep within a few breaths.
Daiyu woke up until dawn, but Feng Yibo couldn't sleep all night.
As the saying goes: A little separation is better than a new marriage.
Although they were very restrained, they couldn't hold back the two of them taking turns to talk.
Fortunately, the heart-to-heart talk was not loud.
At least Daiyu didn't hear it.
The two sisters met Daiyu today and couldn't figure out her temper for a while.
After coming out of the main room, the two sisters got into a room.
Prepare to discuss this matter.
Unexpectedly, Feng Yibo also got in.
Second Sister You looked at him with tenderness and sweetness in her eyes, but she replied shyly:
"Uncle, Miss Lin lives across the street now, so you can save some time!"
Third Sister You also bit her lower lip, leaned close to her, and echoed:
"That's right! Don't let people think that our sisters are the crooked ones!"
"What are you talking about? I'm exhausted from this long journey."
Feng Yibo smiled and hugged each other with his arms.
"I haven't seen you for half a year and I miss you very much, so I came over to chat with you sisters for a few words."
"I'll just hold you and talk for a while, and then go to sleep."
As they talked about each other, the three of them rolled into one place.
Second Sister You has become more and more shy since she followed Feng Yibo.
On the contrary, Sanjie You has become more and more bold since she found herself.
"Wait!"
Second Sister You suddenly pushed away Feng Yibo's mischievous hand and said:
"Sir, I want to ask about Miss Lin!"
Feng Yibo knew what they were worried about.
Although his hands kept moving, he patiently explained:
"You will all go to the second bedroom in the future. Sister Lin will not be able to move in for another four or five years. How can you wait until then?"
It dawned on the two sisters.
I remembered that although Daiyu was the principal wife of the eldest family, she was three years younger than the other principal wife.
Li Wan once said that they are also sisters.
"Kekeke~"
Third Sister You was tickled by Feng Yibo and couldn't help laughing.
The voice was a bit loud, and she was immediately glared at by Second Sister You.
Third Sister You rolled her eyes at her provocatively.
The third sister rolled her eyes, and Feng Yibo came over again to meet the second sister You.
After a while, Second Sister You said breathlessly: "Uncle, wait a moment!"
"What's wrong?"
Second Sister You asked weakly: "Aren't you saying you are tired and want to talk?"
"Let's talk about it after we're done!"
After being sealed for half a year, Feng Yibo had already turned into white phosphorus.
No need to touch the fire, just warm it up and it will catch fire!
How can I have time to speak?
In the second half of the night, Second Sister You was the thinner-skinned one after all.
I packed up and went to sleep in another room.
The next day, Feng Yibo slept until noon.
The exhaustion of traveling and driving is really tiring.
He stretched his waist and stretched.
After washing up and eating some food, I went to see Li Shouzhong and Lin Ruhai again.
After discussing with Lin Ruhai, he sent someone to Jia's mansion to deliver the post.
Prepare to go over and see you the day after tomorrow.
Then he went to the back and talked to Li Mengshi for a while.
Li Wan has taken Jia Lan back home, and Daiyu is talking to Li Mengshi.
Youshi's mother and daughter were also there, accompanying them and carefully accompanying them.
Although I told you to let the You sisters go to the second room, you should respect the main wife of the eldest room.
Then Feng Yibo walked around the mansion and found that the population in the mansion was getting larger and larger.
The third courtyard is not enough to live in.
The owner can still live in it.
Even if the servants from the three families were put together, it would seem a bit crowded.
I thought that after visiting the Jia Mansion, I would like to take a look at the house when I come back.
He went to the warehouse again and divided the local products brought back from the south of the Yangtze River with the rare things from overseas.
As for the Jia Mansion, just go back and go with Lin Ruhai.
The chief assistant Zhang Songyue, the eunuch Xia Bingzhong, and a few others of the same year over there just need to be sent there.
In the end, Qin Mansion was left.
Thinking that he had nothing else to do today, he prepared to visit the house in person.
After all, Qin Ye is his elder.
I didn’t send a greeting card in advance, so I just went to Caochang Hutong with the gift.
As soon as he arrived at the door of Qin Mansion, Feng Yibo asked someone to call the door.
While waiting, a luxury carriage came over and went in directly through the corner door.
I didn't expect to see Qin Keqing coming back.
Feng Yibo hesitated whether to avoid it.
At this time, a servant came to report: "Sir, Mr. Qin is waiting for you inside."
Feng Yibo thought, since he is here, he should go in and say hello before leaving.
So I took the time and asked someone to send the things over.
He was led in by the servants of the Qin family.
As soon as I arrived at the main room, I heard someone crying inside.
Then came Qin Ye's voice, which sounded a little anxious.
"Alas! What can you do to me about such a thing?"
"We'll talk about it later. Yibo is coming soon. You should go to the side room to take shelter first."
Feng Yibo just walked to the door and paused when he heard this.
I wanted to turn back but it was too late.
When the door of the room opened, Ruizhu was standing inside with Qin Keqing on his arm.
