Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 61 The Concubine Room
After the meeting, the maid announced outside, "Taifei, Mrs. Pu, Aunt Zhou, and Aunt Chen are waiting outside the door."

"Let them in." Toffee raised her voice.

Three women dressed as women came in following the maidservant.

The leading woman, in her twenties, was wearing an apricot red embroidered jacket. She was plump and demure, and she was dressed more richly than the other two.

Her identity is ready to be revealed.

Concubine Pu's concubine's younger sister, Mrs. Pu, the sixth-rank wife of Prince Jin's Mansion.

The two behind are concubines with no rank, wearing ginger yellow jackets, the taller one is Mrs. Zhou, and the one wearing pink jackets and baby-faced is Mrs. Liu.

The three concubines of the King of Jin were of three different types, fat and thin, petite and lovely.

"My concubine has met the concubine in person, please greet the concubine." The three of them saluted the concubine gracefully.

"Excuse me, go and offer tea to your mistress." The concubine said.

As soon as the three of them came in, they saw the beautiful young woman sitting on the right side of the concubine, and knew that it was their new mistress, Mrs. Jiang.

In the past two days, they have already learned from the maid that Mrs. Jiang is as beautiful as a fairy, and seeing her today, she is indeed a rare beauty.

The skin is more radiant than snow, and the eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, making them pale in comparison.

The maidservant came over with tea, Mrs. Pu picked up the teacup, and knelt down respectfully, "My concubine, Mrs. Pu, pays my respects to my concubine, my concubine is blessed, my concubine please drink tea."

Jiang Changning glanced at Qiao Shi who was waiting to watch the show, and the corners of her lips curled up, so she wouldn't embarrass these concubines.

He reached out to take the teacup, took a sip, put it aside, smiled and took off a gold hairpin with a sapphire inlaid on his head, and stuck it in Pu's bun, "Serve the prince well from now on."

Seeing Jiang Changning treating his concubine with a calm expression, the concubine nodded slightly in satisfaction.

As the main room, you should have such a bearing.

Recalling back then, Qiao's face when she was served tea by her concubine's room, and Pu's face when she was served tea by her concubine's room, the concubine felt more and more that a daughter of an aristocratic family was better than a noble daughter.

"Thank you, princess, for the reward." Mrs. Pu said with a smile.

When we met for the first time, the new princess seemed to be much kinder than her first sister. Of course, whether it is easy to get along with will depend on the future.

After the Zhou family and the Liu family offered tea to Jiang Changning, Jiang Changning rewarded each with a gold bracelet.

Fortunately, Jiang Changning had expected that Mrs. Qiao would be a demon, so she wore several extra pieces of jewelry, which were of moderate value and novel in style, and were intended to be used as rewards.

According to preliminary investigations, the King of Jin should have two house maids, but they didn't come to offer tea to her, presumably due to lack of status.

The concubine wants face and is very polite.

Tongfang girl, really can't get on the stage.

"Go outside and wait." The concubine said.

The three concubines saluted and withdrew.

Jiang Changning didn't wait for the concubine to speak, and took the initiative to say: "Mother concubine, my daughter-in-law is a new wife, how to arrange this in the house, the daughter-in-law is not very clear, please ask the concubine mother to help her daughter-in-law come up with an idea."

When the concubine heard this, she smiled a little deeper, "The matter in the lord's room should be up to you in the first place, but you just came in and you are young, so I won't make it difficult for you, I will make an arrangement for you , how do you see it?"

"Mother and concubine, please tell me." Jiang Changning bowed and said.

"Mrs. Pu is the madam. She is arranged for four days a month, two days each for Mrs. Zhou and two days for Mrs. Liu, and there are two other rooms, one day for each of them." The concubine said.

"The daughter-in-law will ask the maid to ask about their little days, and then arrange specific days, and then report to the mother and concubine later." Jiang Changning said.

Jiang Changning is so good, the concubine is more and more satisfied with this daughter-in-law, and she can't help saying: "There is no vacancy in January for the newlyweds. From next month, we will stagger your small life arrangements first. You are the mistress, and you will give birth to Lin'er as soon as possible. That's what matters."

Qiao suddenly turned her head to look at the concubine, her eyes were full of disbelief.

That's not what the concubine said to her back then. The concubine asked her to be magnanimous, saying that the rain and dew should be shared equally, that as the mistress, don't be jealous with the concubine's room, and that the concubines are her children, saying...

"Mother and concubine, if there is nothing wrong, my daughter-in-law will go back to the yard first." Jiang Changning stood up and said goodbye.

"Go." The concubine didn't keep her any longer.

When I went out, I saw three concubines standing in the porch. Before Jiang Changning could speak, Mrs. Qiao came out, "Master, you are all serving the prince. You should get along well and don't make things difficult for others."

"Concubine Mourning supports you so much, I'm afraid that I, the mistress, will bully you, so hurry up and thank Concubine Mourning." Jiang Changning said with a smile.

The three concubines did not expect that this pair of sisters-in-law would match up. Concubine Mourning is the person in power, and Jiang Changning is the mistress, no one can offend.

After a moment of hesitation, Mrs. Pu made up her mind and saluted, "Thank you for mourning the concubine."

It seems that the east wind is strong now, but this is Jin Wangfu, Jiang Changning is Jin Wangfei, and the west wind will eventually overwhelm the east wind.

Zhou Shi and Liu Shi followed Pu Shi and also saluted: "Thank you for mourning the concubine."

"Sister-in-law, do you know that there is an animal called a gibbon?" Jiang Changning paused, and continued walking outside: "It looks like a human but not human, like a human is not like a human."

Qiao's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and the three concubines hurriedly bowed to her, "The concubine is resigning." They hurriedly chased after Jiang Changning.

Back at Rujingyuan, Jiang Changning asked Jin Ya to ask the three of them about their letter dates.

The three concubines are all in the last ten days of each month, and Jiang Changning's monthly letter is also in the last ten days of the month.

On the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, the prince must stay in the principal room.

Jiang Changning thought for a while and made the arrangements, "From next month, Mrs. Pu will be from the seventh to tenth day of the lunar month, Aunt Zhou will be on the eleventh and twelfth, Aunt Liu will be on tenth 34, and two Tongfang will be on tenth 56th. Let's just leave it like this for now, and make arrangements after Mrs. Chen comes in."

Jin Ya wrote down the date and came out to tell the three concubines.

The three concubines all looked happy, they could finally serve the prince!

"I don't know how to address my sister?" Mrs. Park asked politely.

Jiang Changning had only been in the house for three days, so Jin Ya couldn't be a housekeeper, but a daughter-in-law who served by Jiang Changning's side.

"The slave girl Jin Ya is the concubine's companion, Madam can also ask the slave girl to come to Wang's house." Jin Ya laughed.

"Hello, sister Jin Ya, I have something to ask my sister." Mrs. Pu took Jin Ya's hand and stuffed her with a purse.

Jin Ya didn't refuse, she held her purse and said with a smile: "I can't afford to ask Madam for advice, what is Madam's order?"

"When is it better for us to come over tomorrow to serve the concubine?" Pu asked.

"Wangfei starts from the third quarter of the day, and it is enough for the wife to come over at the first quarter of the day." Jin Ya told the truth.

"Thank you, Sister Jin Ya." Park said with a smile.

"There's nothing to do now, Madam and the two aunts should go back to the yard to rest first." Jin Ya sent them away.

After the three of Mrs. Pu left, Jin Ya entered the Nuan Pavilion, and presented her the purse that Mrs. Pu gave her, "Princess, this is Mrs. Pu's gift to her servants."

In the purse is a small silver scorpion, which weighs a few dollars.

As a sixth-rank wife, Mrs. Pu is a bit stingy, but she is a concubine and a concubine. It is impossible for the Pu family to give her much respect. It is not bad to reward her with a silver scorpion.

Jiang Changning took out a silver peanut from his purse and tossed it to her, "The silver peanuts are for the little girls to buy candies, this is your reward."

"Thank you, Princess, for the reward." Jin Ya happily withdrew.
