Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Chapter 98
Tao Shi didn't know whether she believed it or not after hearing it, but she didn't ask again, but smiled and talked about family affairs with Lu Wanning.

"On the day the empress dowager sent someone to deliver the decree to the mansion, your fourth sister-in-law was just diagnosed to be pregnant. If the child was a boy, it would be your fourth brother's first son. Your grandmother and aunt Ni were very happy, but because It's just been diagnosed, it's still early days, the mansion hasn't disclosed the letter, and the imperial concubine may not know it now."

"And your third sister..."

The marriage between Lu Wanning's third cousin, Lu Wanqing, and Mrs. Du's son, Guozijian Jijiu, was scheduled in May, and now the second wife is busy with Lu Wanqing's marriage all day long.

Lu Wanning provided Dow with a talk about Lu Wanqing's marriage, and said with a smile: "Since the third sister is going to get married soon, then mother will help my daughter bring something for the third sister when she goes back later, and treat it as the daughter's makeup for her." .”

After Tao Shi agreed, Lu Wanning asked Tao Shi again: "My daughter heard Qingzhi and the others say that the third sister's marriage was arranged by the second aunt, so the son of Mr. Du's family is very talented or handsome, so the second aunt valued her." ?”

Dow shook his head, "I've seen Mrs. Du's son-in-law as well. His appearance can only be described by his facial features. He is indeed talented, but he can't be considered exceptional."

"Then why did the second aunt let the third sister marry him?"

Tao said with a smile: "The Du family has a family rule that men can only accept concubines when they are forty and childless. Mother guesses that your second aunt thinks this is important, and the Du family has a simple population. Mrs. Du is straightforward and generous, and she is a good person to get along with." Mother-in-law, if your third sister marries into his family, she will surely live a very comfortable life in the future."

Lu Wanning said: "From what my mother said, Second Aunt really helped Third Sister find a good marriage."

"Yes." Tao said: "If you really marry your third sister to Jia Yibo's residence according to your grandmother's wishes, then your third sister will suffer in the days to come."

"What happened to Uncle Jiayi's mansion?" Lu Wanning asked curiously.

Dow hesitated for a moment, originally he didn't want to tell his daughter this kind of thing, but then he thought that her daughter already understood what she should understand now, and she didn't need to hide it, so she told Lu Wanning about it.

"The fourth son of the Jiayibo Mansion has a distant cousin, because the family was in trouble before staying in the Jiayibo Mansion, but I don't know when the girl and the fourth son of the Jiayibo Mansion fell in love with each other. In conclusion, Jiayibo House and Mrs. Jiayibo are willing to let the girl stay, but it does not mean that they are willing to let her such a poor family girl marry into the mansion."

After finding out about this, Mrs. Jia Yibo ordered the girl to be sent away, and wanted to make an engagement for her son as soon as possible.

Dow didn't know if the old lady knew about it when she wanted to book this marriage for Lu Wanqing, but the second lady obviously knew about it at the time, and she refused to agree to this marriage, but made the appointment for Lu Wanqing by herself. family affairs.

After the marriage with Zhongyonghou's Mansion failed, Mrs. Jia Yi quickly arranged for her fourth son to be the prostitute of the servant of the Ministry of Rites.

Unexpectedly, not long after the two marriages were established, the four sons of Jiayibo's mansion got the girl's address from somewhere, and brought her back again, and they brought her back with great fanfare. He couldn't hide it anymore if he wanted to cover it up, so he could only agree to let the girl be a concubine.

After the Minister of Rites' family heard about this, they were naturally dissatisfied, but the marriage of the two families had already been booked, and the Minister of Rites was also willing to marry Jia Yibo's mansion, so they could only accept it in the end.

Now the two marriages are coming soon, and the child in the womb of the concubine's cousin girl in Jiayibo's mansion has also been born, and it is still a son.

The main wife has not yet entered the house, but she already has a concubine, and the four sons value the concubine so much, and I know that the girl of the Ministry of Rites' family will not have an easy life after getting married.

After hearing what Dow said, Lu Wanning felt that Lin should have known about it at the time. It is impossible for Lin to not know what her second aunt knew.

However, Mrs. Lin may not have considered whether Lu Wanqing's life would be easier after marrying into Jia Yibo's Mansion. She only valued whether Lu Wanqing's marriage could bring benefits to the Hou Mansion.

If her second uncle and second cousin were not still useful, and the uncle still needed the help of the second uncle and second cousin at the border, Lin would not dare to go too far, and the second aunt might not be able to help the third cousin avoid this matter.

The third cousin is luckier than her because she has a father and brother to rely on.

Tao Shi and Lu Wanning's mother and son talked affectionately for a while. Tao Shi wanted to mention Tao Yunyun's marriage several times, but after thinking about it, he still didn't mention it. Everyone has thought about getting married.

After Tao Shi stayed in Linglong Pavilion for about an hour, Lu Wanning sent her away. Although Tao Shi was summoned by the Empress Dowager to enter the palace, Lu Wanning's current status is always against the rules when seeing her family members. It is not good to stay in the palace for too long.

But Tao Shi met Lu Wanning and knew that Lu Wanning was doing well in the palace, so she felt a little relieved.

Not long after Tao Shi left, the girl Hong Jian from the imperial concubine's palace came to find her. After knowing that Tao Shi had left, Hong Jian smiled and said: "The imperial concubine knows that the third lady has entered the palace and specially asked the servants to invite the third lady to sit in the palace. After sitting down, who would have thought that the third lady would have already left."

Lu Wanning smiled and said: "Mother, she also wanted to visit the imperial concubine, but she was worried that she would disturb the imperial concubine if she rushed to see her, so she had to let me convey her heart to the imperial concubine. I just happened to be going to the imperial concubine's palace right now. Let's go with Miss Hongjian."

Lu Wanning went to Zhaoyang Palace to see the noble concubine and repeated what she just said, and then said: "Although the concubine's mother was not able to come to see the concubine, the concubine's mother brought a good news, and I want the concubine to convey it to you." Let the empress know."

The noble concubine put down the teacup in her hand, and said with interest, "I wonder what good news Third Aunt brought?"

Lu Wanning said: "Mother said that the fourth sister-in-law is pregnant."

The imperial concubine laughed when she heard the words, "This is really good news."

Lu Wanning's fourth cousin is the younger brother of the imperial concubine, a playboy like their fourth uncle, he is 21 this year, and has been married for four years. There is no shortage of concubines and daughters, but there is not a single son and daughter. This brother is worried.

Now hearing this news, the imperial concubine is naturally also happy.

However, while she was happy, she did not forget to urge Lu Wanning to get pregnant quickly.

Lu Wanning knew that if she mentioned this matter to the imperial concubine, the imperial concubine would inevitably urge her, but she had to tell the imperial concubine about it.
