Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 3 People under the roof

Zhao Ziyi was a little moved: "It's a bad father, and you mother and daughter have suffered a lot of grievances."

After speaking, he turned to the old lady, "Our Zhao family owes them too much to their mother and daughter, and this child has suffered too much outside. Now that he is back, he should make up for it."

Mrs. Zhao nodded and wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "Child, get up first."

Only Mrs Xu, who was overwhelmed by resentment, still had a sneer on her face: "If her name is not right, her words will not go well. Her mother is not even the concubine of the Zhao family. What qualifications does she have to be the daughter of the Zhao family? I want to stay. You can also, but you cannot enter the family tree, and you cannot share the dowry with your daughter.”

Zhao Ziyi said with an expressionless face: "Her mother had a father's life with me in the early years, why is the name not right? Since she has returned to the house, she wants to be the daughter of my Zhao family. As for the dowry, Mrs. If I care about it, I can take out my salary and never use the money from the public. I have been an official for many years, so I don’t even worry about marrying a daughter.”

"you--"

The emotions that Xu shi had calmed down just now were hooked up again.

"Hyun'er!"

The old lady was also anxious, "You have to think about Sister Yan!"

Zhao Ziyi smiled slightly: "Mother, these two are my children, how can I favor one over the other? I know that Sister Yan is about to propose marriage. Mother, you are worried that this matter will affect Sister Yan's marriage. The rules of the order cannot be changed, but the plan can be changed, and I am ready to let the two sisters participate in the wedding banquet next month."

Zhao Chengyan, who was next to him, saw it in his eyes, anxious in his heart.

Suddenly a half-sister emerges, not to mention her father's favor, but also to her family's glory and interests!
She frowned slightly, and pulled Xu Shi to persuade: "Mother, this matter has already been passed to the palace, so it can only be reduced to a big one. If it is so big, people outside will start talking about what my father should do in the courtroom. Where to stand?"

Mrs. Zhao nodded approvingly: "Sister Yan is right."

With the affirmation of her grandmother, Zhao Chengyan turned to her father: "Sister Wei is my father's child, so she naturally wants to live in Zhao's house. But father, you are the prime minister of the dynasty, and your mother is from the royal family, for the sake of the overall situation, It's understandable for mothers to have concerns."

She started from the politics of the court and analyzed the stakes: "Even if my mother agrees, it is probably difficult for my grandfather to accept it. Besides, even if my grandfather doesn't mind, can the queen mother and her elderly mind not mind? Let the queen mother have an opinion on you. , I am afraid that it will be difficult for my father to do it in the court."

As she spoke, she took Zhao Xiwei's hand again and said, "If my elder sister makes my father in a dilemma, my elder sister will not be happy either."

Zhao Xi raised his eyes subconsciously, and saw her just right smile.

"In my opinion, it's better to take back the tablet of Sister Wei's biological mother and place it in the ancestral hall as a concubine, while Sister Wei, as the eldest daughter of a concubine, is recorded under the name of the concubine, and the cost of food and clothing is the same as mine. example."

"In this way, neither embarrassing my father nor making my mother angry, my sister's biological mother can also get her due..."

Zhao Chengyan smiled slightly, and she welcomed your birth mother's tablet in an upright manner. If you become a concubine, you will never want to be higher than me!
She coquettishly said to the old lady: "Grandmother, what do you think of the granddaughter's suggestion?"

"I think it's fine."

However, these words spoke to the heart of the old lady, and she immediately expressed her position: "It's still sister Yan who thinks carefully, so let's do it like this!"

Xu shi opened her mouth and was about to object, but Zhao Chengyan gave her a quiet look, so although she didn't understand the reason, she had to nod her head: "That's naturally excellent."

The old lady gave a satisfied "um", then looked at her son: "Xun'er, what do you think?"

Zhao Ziyi's eyes fell lightly on Zhao Chengyan. His daughter, the city's mentality followed him, but the heart pattern followed her mother.

But he also knew that Zhao Chengyan's words were not without reason.

The emperor was ill and weak, the queen mother was in power, but the prince lost his mother when he was young, and the imperial concubine Pei's family was ready to move.

As the Prime Minister, Zhao Ziyi racked his brains every day to think about how to balance the forces between all parties, and at the same time to maintain his independence and not be used by any faction.

If this matter is not handled properly, it will inevitably be caught by someone...

He pondered for a while, and finally made a decisive decision: "It's just an expedient measure."

Seeing that he was willing to step back, Mrs. Xu asked somewhat indulgently, "Where should she be placed?"

Zhao Ziyi got up and straightened his sleeves, and said casually, "Madam, let's do it, I think Jingmo Xuan in Dongyuan is good."

Xu Shi was stunned.

That Jingmo Xuan is warm in winter and cool in summer, with good lighting. The most important thing is that it is the house in the main courtyard!

Now he has easily given an illegitimate daughter to live in! ?
Thinking that her husband valued the children of her old lover so much, the sourness in Xu's heart came up again, and she blurted out: "She is only a concubine, how can she live in the main hospital?"

"Didn't I just say that sister Wei's future food and clothing expenses will be the same as that of the first daughter?" Zhao Ziyi raised her eyebrows.

"you!"

Xu Shi was so angry that his silver teeth clenched.

Seeing that her parents were about to quarrel again, Zhao Chengyan hurriedly tugged at Xu's sleeve and said, "Mother, I think it's good for Jing Moxuan to let my sister live."

After speaking, she made a look: "Besides, Sister Wei is new here, so many things still need us to take care of."

It's just an illegitimate daughter raised outside, still want to ride on their head to make a fortune?

Let her live under her nose, so that she can know what the rules of a big family are!
