Chapter 189 The Big Sister Is Pregnant
Come on, His Highness was coaxed by the Crown Princess.

Lin Wanfu glanced at Li Qiushui who was standing outside shivering from the cold, and said: "Miss Li, you can go back and rest, the accommodation has been arranged for you, if you need anything, just follow the ink fan and ink marks in the imperial concubine's room." Or what Moping said."

"Thank you father-in-law."

Li Qiushui saluted Lin Wanfu before following Mo Ping to his residence.

Unfortunately, I ran into Xu Pingting on the way.

Li Qiushui didn't know her, but from her attire, she knew she was a noble person, so she didn't dare to make mistakes, so she immediately saluted Xu Pingting: "Hello, girl."

"You are that... dancer?" She hooked her lips, "You have a good appearance and a good figure. No wonder His Royal Highness would like it, but it's a pity, it's just a dancer."

Li Qiushui was embarrassed and embarrassed. When she rubbed the hem of her clothes awkwardly and didn't know how to react, Mo Ping stepped forward to block her, and smiled respectfully at Xu Pingting: "I don't know why the nine girls came here? If you are looking for the prince Your Highness, how about another day, Shi Zifei is in the study with His Highness."

Xu Pingting glanced at Li Qiushui again, and said with some displeasure: "I'm not looking for His Royal Highness, I'm here to talk to Elder Sister Shizi. I feel that I'm very close to Elder Sister."

Mo Ping nodded politely: "That's another day, it's really inconvenient today."

Seeing the smug smile on the corner of the girl's mouth when she spoke, Xu Pingting knew what she meant, so she pouted and walked away unwillingly, before leaving, she mumbled, "What is it?" , a slave!"

When she was far away, Li Qiushui asked cautiously: "Miss Moping, who was that just now?"

"She, the Ninth Girl of the Duke's Mansion, is rushing to be our Highness's concubine." Mo Ping said with a smile, "Don't look at her being so arrogant, her aunt is also a dancing girl, I really don't know what to do in front of you .”

Mo Ping had accompanied Song Qingyue to dance lessons a few times, and he was fairly familiar with this Li Qiushui, and he also knew that His Royal Highness was simply using this Qiushui girl as a cover, there was no misunderstanding, and his attitude towards her was very gentle.

"I have arranged a wing room in our courtyard for you, so you don't have to greet our concubine every morning. She doesn't like those troubles. If you are not satisfied with the food, clothing and accommodation, you can tell me. If the concubine wants to see you , someone will come to you naturally, on weekdays, you just tell us what you want to do, where you want to go, and you don't have to be restrained."

Li Qiushui saluted her: "Thank you, Miss Moping."

The people here didn't think much about it, but Xu Pingting was very angry.

She felt that Song Qingyue immediately presented a Hu nationality dancer to distract His Royal Highness's attention because she saw that she had some Hu nationality characteristics in her appearance.

That Li Qiushui, apart from his dark skin, has a high nose bridge, deep eye sockets, big eyes, and thick lips. He is really good-looking, good-looking, and well-off, making women envy him.

"Mother! What do you think we should do? The people in Su Wang's Mansion are really serious. His Royal Highness didn't announce his birthday in advance, so he just missed the opportunity!" Xu Pingting stomped her feet angrily.

"You, don't worry, that concubine is a capable person. Look at her, learn a little more, and treat her more respectfully in the future, don't provoke her, do you hear me?" Aunt Bai sighed, " When we get to the capital, mother will teach you well."

"Mom, are you going to the capital too?"

Xu Pingting hugged Aunt Bai and cheered up.

Aunt Bai had nowhere to express the bitterness in her heart, knowing that it was Xu Youzhong who was playing tricks again, but there was nothing she could do.

She touched her daughter's head and said with a smile: "Yes, your father said, let me take good care of you after I arrive in the capital, and teach you more."

What to teach?

Naturally, it's not teaching her how to behave, how to run a house, etc., but teaching her how to serve men.

Her Pingting was about to be sent out by the family at a young age to be used as a pawn for the family to gain wealth and honor.

But Aunt Bai didn't regret it.

From the first time she met Song Qingyue, Aunt Bai had a strong desire: to want her daughter to be as high as Song Qingyue.

In terms of background and appearance, her daughter is no worse than that Song San.

Therefore, her daughter will one day become a high-ranking empress in the palace.

At that time, even the wife of the Duke in the capital will have to kneel down for her daughter!She wants to make all the people who look down on her in the palace no longer dare to be rude in front of her!
Aunt Shen, who gave birth to Miss Ba, was very happy. She hoped that Aunt Bai would leave quickly.

The eighth miss, Xu Qiuxia, heard that her father wanted to make the ninth sister to Li Zhao as a side concubine, and she was depressed for several days.

"Auntie, why didn't dad choose me instead of younger sister Jiu? Is it because my daughter is not as beautiful as younger sister Jiu?"

Aunt Shen bent her fingers and gave her daughter a shudder: "You want to be a concubine! Your aunt and I have been wronged enough to be a concubine, but you still want to be a concubine? You want to piss your aunt to death!" ah?"

"But isn't that the side concubine?" Xu Qiuxia mumbled aggrievedly, covering her head.

Aunt Shen sneered: "A concubine is also a concubine. How much bigger do you think the courtyards of those concubines in the palace are than the courtyard your aunt lives in now? Stop dreaming! A concubine, unless he can make his son the head of the family in the future, no matter whether he is favored or If you are not favored, there will be no good results!"

The Shen family is a large merchant in the northwest area. Aunt Shen is the daughter of the Shen family. She was raised to be a concubine for the powerful. She felt that she had been wronged for the rest of her life, but she didn't want her daughter to be wronged like herself. .

"Qiuxia, listen carefully. Don't compare with Pin Ting. Her aunt was raised as a dancer and has limited knowledge. Apart from being beautiful, she can't even give her daughter a decent dowry. Yes. You see, see how Madam will treat her in the capital. Her aunt is just a joke to your father. Even if she can really enter the backyard of the prince in the future, she will be a joke at most. Would you like Do you want to be a plaything for men, or do you want them to respect you and respect you?"

"Daughter... My daughter wants to be respected, but she also wants to be affectionate with her husband. Auntie, I really envy Ninth Sister who is so beautiful."

Sitting next to her daughter, Aunt Shen said earnestly, "Doting and affection are different." She stared into her daughter's eyes and asked, "Would you like to be a pet or a human being?"

Xu Qiuxia pouted and stopped talking.

Aunt Shen put her arms around her daughter and said earnestly: "Listen to what Auntie said, I have already told your father about this matter, I don't want you to be a concubine, not even the emperor's nobles. Our Qiuxia is to be the right wife After arriving in the capital, be filial to your mother, and be polite to your brothers and sisters. There is no grievance between me and my wife, and she will not embarrass you. I have prepared a dowry of 4 taels for you, and your father will see you again. I will give you a subsidy of 2 taels. You are Wei Guogong’s daughter, and the person you marry is no different, so don’t worry, and don’t compare yourself with anyone, you understand?”

Xu Qiuxia nodded silently.

"My aunt won't harm you. My aunt will make you live a happy life after you get married. It's not worth spending a lifetime on those vanities, do you hear me?"

"Daughter knows." Seeing that Auntie Shen was still worried, she could only promise again and again that she would never be a concubine, so Aunt Shen was relieved.

In the early morning of the next day, the news that Shizi's wife was pregnant spread throughout the mansion, and Xu Youzhong sent people to go back to the Duke's Mansion and Song Mansion in the capital to announce the good news.

Song Qingyue was the first one to come, and when Xu Youzhong saw her, he smiled and said, "Hey, our third sister is here, and my husband will be thrown aside!"

Song Qingyue snorted, sat down and hugged her sister coquettishly: "Sister, I see that your husband is not a good person, so let's live together, what kind of man do you want. Anyway, you already have a child."

Xu Youzhong almost laughed angrily at this sister-in-law, pointed at Song Qingyue and said, "My wife was led to ruin by you, a fox."

Song Qingyue rolled her eyes: "Hey, it seems like you don't like it, why are you pretending?"

Xu Youzhong shook his head while laughing and went out to find Li Zhao to practice boxing and kicking.

Aunt Shen took Xu Qiuxia to congratulate Song Yaxin.

Song Qingyue hugged her elder sister and put her head on her shoulder affectionately. She tilted her head to look at Miss Xu Ba and Xu Qiuxia.

Well, this person's appearance is indeed far worse than Xu Jiu's.

But it's not ugly, the face is round, and the facial features are also round. It has a kind appearance. I don't know if the inside is also kind.

"Greetings to Mrs. Shi Zi, and greetings to Su Wang Shi Zifei." Aunt Shen saluted very politely, Xu Qiuxia followed her aunt to salute, her expression was quite calm.

Song Yaxin smiled and said, "Aunt Shen, sit down, I, a junior, will call you to pay my respects."

"Mrs. Shizi praised me. I can't be considered your elder. Madam Shizi's pregnancy is a great event, so I always come here to congratulate you."

Saying that, Aunt Shen took out the gift, Qingsong stepped forward to take it, and Cuibai came over to make tea and snacks for them.

"Find out last night?" Aunt Shen asked.

"Yeah, it's been two months, and I didn't even notice it before." Song Yaxin gently stroked her belly with emotion.

"Then you have to be careful, and you have to be extra careful in the first three months."

"Aunt Lao, don't worry. When my younger sister came, she brought a doctor from the palace with her. He is very skilled in medicine. I don't worry if he is here."

"If you have a good heart, a pregnant woman must have a good heart, so that the fetus can grow well. Are there enough medicinal materials?" Aunt Shen asked again.

Song Yaxin replied politely: "For the time being, it is enough. If there is anything missing in the future, I will have to ask Auntie to ask for it."

"Where can it be? Look at what you said. If you have anything, just say it. I don't have it there. I will go to my mother's house. Ah, by the way, you are here for a short time. Maybe you don't know it. My family has a medicinal material business. .”

Song Qingyue's eyes lit up when she heard it: "Really? But the medicinal materials from Qilian Mountain and the Western Regions?"

"Exactly! From Tianshan Mountain, Kunlun Mountain, and Qilian Mountain, there are many good herbs here." Aunt Shen said.

Song Qingyue still wanted to inquire about the medicinal material business, but thought that the sales channel of the family was probably from the Duke's Mansion, so she didn't ask, but she said: "My fourth brother came to the northwest with us this time to see what's available. It’s suitable for transporting back to the capital. Aunt Shen’s family is in business, and you must have better news than us. I see that my fourth brother has come here and I don’t have any clues yet, so why don’t you give him some advice when you have time?”

"Of course it's possible!" Aunt Shen was very happy, this Princess Su Wang had something to ask of her, and she came and went as soon as she came.

"Aunt Song's natal cousin is also here with me this time. He also wants to see what business opportunities there are in the northwest. I'll invite everyone to drink tea with me another day. Let's have a good chat then."

"Then I will be disrespectful and wait to drink your good tea, Princess Concubine."

Song Qingyue looked at Xu Qiuxia and suddenly added: "The eighth girl is also here to sit, the little girl is quiet and gentle, it makes people like it."

"She is a boring gourd. She talks a lot in private, and she wilts when she sees people she doesn't know well. I'm just such a daughter, so it's really worrying. After all these years, I've been out with her father, and the dowry has been prepared. I embroidered the red hijab for her, but I don’t know where to talk about the marriage, so I’m so worried.” Aunt Shen sighed.

The scarlet hijab means she is going to be the wife of the first wife. This aunt Shen is really a wonderful person. Song Qingyue giggled and said: "The eighth younger sister is still young, and Aunt Shen is too anxious. When we arrive in the capital, the Duke Aren’t the girls in the mansion afraid that they won’t be able to find Mr. Ruyi? In the future, there will be spring banquets, flower viewing banquets, or poetry gatherings in the palace. I will post a post to my sister, and I will ask His Royal Highness and my brother to bring more classmates and friends. Let Eighth Sister be tricky."

When Aunt Shen heard this, she immediately rolled her eyes with laughter.

Xu Qiuxia also pursed her lips and laughed, thinking that this world concubine is really a wonderful person, who reciprocates, who goes and comes, and is not airy at all, which is really likable.

Everyone in the room burst into laughter, and Aunt Bai brought Xu Pinting to arrive after a long time.

"What did Aunt Shen say to Mrs. Shizi, laughing like this, yo, sister Shizi is here too." Xu Jiu tried to show her intimacy with Song Qingyue.

When Song Yaxin saw that it was her, the smile on her face immediately cooled down. Song Qingyue wanted to laugh. This sister of hers was becoming more and more temperamental.

But Song Qingyue thinks this is very good, people have to be alive, how to keep calm, dare not reveal anything, keep everything in their hearts, so that people can't be suffocated to death?

She laughed and said, "Aunt Bai and younger sister Jiu are here too, sit down quickly. I just said that after I return to the capital, I will introduce Mr. Ruyi to my younger sister. I want to ask my eldest brother and second brother to send their classmates, friends, Call them all, and pick one by one for the eighth younger sister."

Elder Song Ge's eldest son and second son are the most outstanding figures in the younger generation, and their friends must be the same. Aunt Shen became more and more happy when she heard this.

Xu Qiuxia also smiled brightly when she heard this. The two elder brothers in the sister-in-law's family are really famous young talents, and she has heard of them in Northwest China.

When Xu Pingting heard this, the smile on her face froze, and Aunt Bai was similar. She didn't expect Song Qingyue to embarrass her like this in person.

The other three continued to discuss lively, as if they didn't see the embarrassment of Aunt Bai and Xu Pingting.

Song Qingyue counted down those dignitaries in the capital who like to hold banquets. For example, the Song family, the Zhang family, and the Yan family, the civil servant families, especially like to hold poetry and wine collections. Princess Duanyi likes to hold chrysanthemum appreciation banquets. She does it every year. There is a small plum blossom grove in Jingguo Mansion, and there will be a plum feast in spring. Zhenbeihou Mansion and Rongguo Mansion like to hold polo matches in April and May every year.

"By the way, my husband loves to play chess. I think I can hold chess competitions in the palace in the future. Sister, what do you think of this idea?"

Song Yaxin smiled and said: "This is a good idea. At that time, please invite more ladies from all families to watch the competition, so as to ensure that the applicants are enthusiastic! It's a pity, my sister can't go back to support you."

She suddenly felt sorry again.

"It's okay, didn't my eighth sister come to cheer me on?" Song Qingyue looked at Xu Qiuxia with a smile.

Xu Qiuxia nodded happily and said, "Then I'm definitely going to cheer on Elder Sister Shizifei."

……

This day, a few people use it for dinner and everyone leaves.

When Xu Pingting returned to her courtyard, she lay in Aunt Bai's arms and cried, "Mother, they are clearly running on me!"

Aunt Bai helplessly touched her daughter's head and sighed: "It's mother's fault, mother shouldn't have brought you there today."

"That imperial concubine, that's too much! It's embarrassing for me, and she wants to be a sister when she enters the mansion. She is so rude now, and she is not afraid of others saying that she is jealous! I am the lady of the Duke's mansion. She has a title! Could it be that her father is more powerful than mine?"

"Okay, Pingting, don't talk anymore!" Aunt Bai held her daughter's hand, "Remember, no matter what your family background is, she is now the wife."

"But, mother!" Xu Pingting cried with tears all over her face.

"It's okay, Pingting, take a long-term view. In this world, there are few royal families who are favored by the royal family, especially in the royal family. Don't look at her current beauty. When there are more women around His Royal Highness, she will sit there. In terms of position, you can only laugh, you have to be commensurate with the women who snatched her husband and sisters, and you have to give rewards to the women who slept with her husband. If you look at her at that time, you won’t feel that there is anything to envy in such a scene .”

Aunt Bai sneered, for example, the wife of the Duke in the capital, she didn't think she had anything to envy.

Xu Pingting raised her eyes blurred with tears, and looked at Aunt Bai in confusion.

"Pin Ting, as long as you can win a man's heart, you can get everything, whether it's status or money, it doesn't matter whether you are the main wife or the concubine, understand? A man's favor is the most important thing."

Xu Pingting choked and nodded.
