Houfu businesswoman

Chapter 9 The Great Mistress Fan's Hate! (2)

When I came back, I happened to pass by Qinghua Pavilion, and heard a group of little hooves talking inside, so I didn't bother to go in and scold them, and hurried past and left, and the bunch of little hoofs in Qinghua Pavilion patted their chests and breathed a sigh of relief.

Nanny Ling ran back to the main room of Songbai Courtyard out of breath.

Nanny Ling entered the main room and saw that the eldest lady was taking a nap, straightened her clothes and said softly: "Eldest lady, Miss Ye Biao hasn't woken up yet, the old slave just passed by there and saw many little hooves joining in the fun in Qinghua Pavilion, That mindless mother Wang is still arguing with Xiuyan, "

"The old slave thinks that the eldest lady should go and have a look. Although it was the Biao girl who made such a big fuss, but the old slave sees that if something happens to the Biao girl, it will be difficult for the Ye family to explain. "

The lady opened her long and narrow eyes when she heard this, and said slightly angrily: "I just said that little hoof is not worrying, and pesters Brother Hui every day like this, if it wasn't for the Zhuangzi shop in her hand , and the contract for the house next door has not been obtained. Who cares for such a coquettish and self-willed girl who weeps? I don't even think about being a concubine for Brother Hui. I thought that making an appointment with Brother Hui would make her Give up, I didn't expect such a thing to happen, and it's as troublesome as her mother."

According to the law of the Qi Kingdom, when a man gets married, he has one official wife and one noble concubine, while good concubines, maid concubines, lowly concubines, and housekeepers have different levels and regulations. A good family concubine is a woman from an innocent family, and a maid concubine is a wealthy family. The slaves and maidservants that people look up to, and the lowly concubines are women in the category of brothel opera actors, which belong to the lowest status among concubines.

Even children born to lowly concubines, regardless of gender, are lower than other children in terms of dowry, dowry and family property, so there are still very few people who are willing to be lowly concubines, and most of them enter the mansion only after they can become white.

There are very few people in Qiguo who marry ordinary wives, because the law is very troublesome. Marrying an ordinary wife needs to be registered by the government, and it also needs the consent of the clan, and the consent of the main wife's family, so ordinary wives and concubines rarely appear in common people's homes, only the princes Only side concubines, otherwise the law is very strict.

There is a law in Qi State that concubines can be righted, but there are still a few families who are really righted. Most of the families marry a second wife. This can expand the power of the family, and secondly, it can avoid being ridiculed.

Da Furen was so angry that she compared Sister Hui with a concubine. One can imagine how much she hated Sister Hui and hated her. Suffocated.

Ling Momo persuaded from the side: "Ma'am, I know that you don't like Miss Ye Biao, and you don't like the second aunt who has passed away, but this is not the time for us to vent our anger. I think Da Fu should clean up. Let's take Eldest Young Master and Fourth Miss over there to have a look, didn't Imperial Physician Du say that if you can't wake up in two days, there is still danger?"

The eldest lady threw away the red and joyful cushion in front of her eyes, just like she wanted to throw away that sister Hui who caused trouble and made people feel uncomfortable, her teeth really itched!

If you want to say who the eldest lady hates the most in the Lu family in Ren'anbo Mansion, the deceased second aunt, Lu Xin, is definitely the number one. In the early years, Lu Xin was against her when she was not married, and the old lady did not give her the power of housekeeping. , Fan Yuqin still remembers this account really.

Another thing is that when Lu Xin was discussing marriage back then, she originally wanted to have a kiss with the Fan family, but she didn't expect Lu Xin's fierce opposition, which made her lose a lot of face in front of her natal family, and now her natal family still takes this matter make fun of her.

So I don't know how many times I prayed that this aunt would find a close marriage, but she didn't expect to climb a high branch in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, which reminded her so many times that she was so depressed that she was going to die.

It's all right now, so what if the second aunt is smart, let alone teach a stupid girl after her life is gone, isn't it just begging for a living under my Fan Yuqin's nose, the shop, Zhuangzi, and tickets are all in my hands, and the custody is here At the end of this year, it was all sold out! .

So what if the Second Aunt Master Ye comes back to report on his work at the end of the year?It's all done by your own stupid daughter. She is not good at managing it herself, and her servants and slaves don't work hard. It has nothing to do with us. The filial piety period of about three years has passed, so let's take it back to the Ye family.

Thinking of this, and thinking of the white money, the lady suddenly felt better!

That's right, I'm sick, and it's still so serious. It's time for this little hoof to be sick. Da Furen's eyes are shining brightly. This time, it's easier to say where sister Hui's money has gone. The ginseng and ganoderma flowers are all gone. Is it silver?

Xu Shi remembered the [-]-year-old ginseng brought by his silly son last night, and he was still a little angry. The eldest lady forgot that all the century-old ginseng brought from the northern Yuancheng in Sister Hui's house went into someone's house The warehouse is gone.

The eldest lady took a sip of the tea from Xueshanmei in a depressed mood, and said to Nanny Ling: "Come on, let's go to Qinghua Pavilion to have a look."

Looking at the eldest lady, Ling Momo understood, and immediately smiled like a chrysanthemum and said: "This old slave will go and ask the eldest young master and fourth young lady to go, and since we have gone, we must make some appearances!"

Nanny Ling was able to stop in the inner room. It was the lady's all-round eyes. After Nanny Ling went out, the elder came out from the inner room. He also stayed up all night last night. Fortunately, this is Muxiu, so he can sleep during the day. take a break.

He just woke up when he heard Nanny Ling's movement. The eldest lady saw the Eldest Master Lu Zhiqian coming out, so she got up and picked up the cloak that was put aside and said, "Master, why don't you sleep a little longer, and Master Tianliang didn't cry That’s how people serve you.”

Lu Zhiqian, the elder of Lu's family room, is 42 years old this year, and he is well maintained. Only the slightly fat belly reveals his age. The most obvious feature of the elder Lu Zhiqian's appearance is that he looks pure-hearted and ascetic, and his facial expressions are not many. It seems that he is not interested in anything, but in fact he is the most shrewd and cunning, insidious, greedy and selfish.

To say that this is not a family that does not enter the house, the couple in the long room, one is kind and cruel, the other is shrewd and cunning, but there are still some similarities.

The old man waved his hand and sat on the couch on the left, and the lady moved to the right. The old man said, "Ma'am, sister Hui is awake? When you go later, bring some high-quality ginseng, donkey-hide gelatin and ganoderma to the left and right storerooms." There is no shortage inside, we can't let people poke the spine."

The eldest lady said unwillingly: "Master, those good medicinal materials are all prepared as a small gift for Brother Hui. The color and efficacy are very good. It's rare to see them. What are they doing for Sister Hui for no reason? It's just greedy. It's just that I broke myself, and it's really a waste to give her such a good thing to eat!"

Eldest Master Lu Zhiqian scolded: "Nonsense! You are said to be a woman who has no knowledge. Who is Sister Hui? Don't compare yourself with He Peiling, who lives in the mansion of your natal family. Sister Hui is the daughter of a senior official. , is the daughter of the first-class Jing'an Hou Mansion, you know who the things in your warehouse belong to, don't think that I don't know about your small thoughts, it's fine if you honor your mother's family, but at this juncture What goes wrong and what the consequences are are up to you.”
