Houmen's concubine

Chapter 16 Self-improvement
Rong knew it well, fearing that the seeds of hatred had already been buried in their young hearts.

She also doesn't want to repair the relationship with them, except to give them the expenses they should have and the monthly money of the master and slave, the rest, hehe... It's gone!
Fortunately, Xie Yan has his own body to subsidize their expenses, otherwise, how could he support his concubines to ignore the head mother, and the concubine children to be arrogant and domineering?

Little Xie Yuheng stood aside the whole time, disappointed to find that his father and those younger siblings were like a family.

All the thoughts of wanting to be loved by my father were in vain...

What Xie Yuheng had seen since he was a child was how his father Zhongyonghou doted on his concubine and killed his wife, made the two aunts arrogant and domineering, and lost all the rules of Zhongyonghou's mansion.If it weren't for the mother's strength, where the status of the maternal ancestor's family is, and he has emerged in front of His Majesty, the position of the son may not be his.

Even so, others only thought that he was lucky to be in His Majesty's eyes, but they didn't know how he survived.

Father's indifference, mother's grievance...

It's all because of the father's excessive love for the concubine's room.

The complete disappointment with his father made him work harder.

He was the number one scholar in high school at the age of 17. He was young and promising, and he did things resolutely. Therefore, he was appreciated by the new emperor Ming Zhengdi.

Otherwise, based on his qualifications, he would not be appointed as the censor of the south of the Yangtze River, and let him go to the south of the Yangtze River to investigate the corruption case secretly.

He will not repeat the mistakes of his father, there are differences between wives and concubines, and between concubines and concubines.

This is the rule, it is the etiquette, if it is messed up, it means that the inner curtain will not be ruled, and personal morality will not be cultivated.

Sorry for the two concubines, he has no patience and no obligation to teach them the rules of life.

It's too late to hate...
A plan to build another mansion has long been born in his heart, as long as he is strong enough, he is not afraid that his dream will not come true.

Therefore, Xie Yuheng secretly bought the mansion of Yan Shilang's family who was demoted and moved his family back to his hometown.

This Yan family's mansion is no smaller than the Zhongyonghou Mansion.

It is said that the ancestors bought it from a declining family back then. The exterior is grand and imposing. After so many years of renovation and reconstruction, the interior is also carved with carved beams and painted buildings, with Danying and Jue carvings, all of which are exquisite.

Secretly, he and his mother, Rong, slowly emptied most of the money-worthy things in the Hou's mansion, and moved them to this newly bought house.

And let the loyal confidants who have been cultivated over the years take care of them temporarily in the new mansion.

Today, the warehouses in Zhongyonghou's Mansion are basically empty.

In some cases, there are only indoor decorations left by the masters in various yards.

When he is full-fledged, he will move to the new house with his mother.At that time, leave an empty mansion for Xie Yan to live with his concubines.

Outsiders should not chew on it.

After so many years, others know that Zhongyonghou is the kind of person who loves concubines, destroys wives and cares for concubine children.

Most of the rich and noble ladies sympathized with Rong's dignified minister's concubine, but in the heart of the marquis, they could not compare to the two concubines of unknown origin!
Zhongyong Hou's wife, Mrs. Rong, is living a miserable life!

In fact, if you want to say who is having a hard time in the Zhongyonghou Mansion, Xie Yan's life is definitely going to be hard.

He is basically idle at home now, since he returned from the border, he has not made any achievements except his title, and he is not reused by the new emperor Mingzheng.

Since the death of General Xie, the Zhongyong Hou Mansion has gradually declined.

Therefore, he was not welcomed by other officials and was very depressed.

You think, everyone in the world is pushing the highs and stepping down the lows.

Most of the people who have handed over to him are because he has a promising son.

Furthermore, he did not abide by the etiquette of the feudal guards-orderly respect and inferiority.

He made a move of favoring concubines and destroying wives, spoiling concubines and destroying descendants.It is even less valued by them.

There are a few of them as concubines, and there are a few of them as Tongfang, but they all use them as tools to vent their desires.

If you are happy, let you have a child by your side, if you are not happy, you will be filled with a bowl of avoiding children soup that hurts your body.

I'm really tired of them, and it's a common thing to sell them.

If your husband and wife are harmonious, there will be no concubines.

The scholar-bureaucrats with double standards said that you are an ear-scratcher, and your wife must be a jealous woman!

Anyway, everything comes out of their mouths, and there is reason to rely on how they say it.

······
Back at Qingsong Courtyard, Xie Yuheng didn't ask Wang Tonger to take off the cloak for him, probably because she was too short.

"come over!"

Usually, Xiao Mo and Xiao Yan were the ones who waited on his pen and ink. When they looked up, they saw that the master was looking in the direction of today's newcomer, Wang Tong'er.

The two of them bowed and turned sideways in a very sensible way, letting Wang Tong'er and the master go into the study to serve the pen and ink.

"Oh."

Seeing their actions, Wang Tong'er knew that the Shizi was calling her.

The study is on the east side of the master bedroom, Wang Tonger followed Xie Yuheng and walked in to have a look, oh hello!The study is larger than the bedroom.

It can't be blamed that the study room is so big, everything in the house is complete, the key is that there is an arhat bed and a clean room inside, that is, the place to take a shower and go to the toilet.

There is also a storage room inside.

In the study room, the tall red sandalwood bookshelves are empty and placed against the wall, full of books and scrolls.

The thick nanmu book table is placed near the window. In addition to the four treasures of the study, there are water drops, pen holders, ink boxes, pen curtains, pen holders, pen holders and other ordinary literati items.

Behind the desk is a brown rattan armchair, and on the wall are extinct landscape paintings by famous painters of the previous dynasty.

There is also a tea room in the study room, where tea sets, stoves, charcoal, etc. are stored neatly.

There is also a tall copper double-beast-ear Boshan furnace in the study, which is still burning with some kind of fragrant wood with a light smell, and the smoke fills the room with fragrance.

This study is like a small home, only the kitchen is missing.

"Study ink."

It was the first time for Wang Tong'er to enter such a large study room, and when she was looking at it with great interest, suddenly a nice warm voice came from above her head.

"Oh." Wang Tong'er was caught off guard, and she knew she agreed.

Who can't grind ink?
Pour some water into the inkstone tank, not too much water, you can add more if there is less.If you put too much water and the ink fades, the written characters will not only look bad, but also easily smudge.Therefore, the ink should be ground to a moderate thickness, not too thick or too light.

This knowledge also benefits from her grandfather in modern times.

Her grandfather's ancestors were from a scholarly family, and it is said that there was a No. [-] scholar from his ancestors.

When Wang Tong'er was a child, she went to her grandmother's house. In the study, her grandfather would hold her on his lap and grind ink while saying to her, "When our little Tong'er grows up, come and grind ink for grandpa, okay?"

"Okay! Tong'er is going to help Grandpa sharpen ink now."

As a result, the young Wang Tong'er not only made a mess of her grandfather's desk, but her face and hands were also stained black with ink.

Thinking of this, Wang Tong'er felt blocked: Grandpa, Tong'er misses you so much!

　Zhongyong waited for his concubine to kill his wife, caring for his concubine left a shadow of childhood on little Xie Yuheng.

　　Therefore, he is not so enthusiastic about marrying wives and taking concubines.

　　Even if concubines are accepted in the future, after marriage, the wives and concubines must be married, and the concubines are different...
