Quick Transmigration: After becoming beautiful, I am numb

Chapter 172 The hero's best mother-in-law (59)

Empress Dowager Han was moved.

However, she still summoned Princess Nanping into the palace and carefully inquired about her wishes.

Han Jiaojiao swayed three times, coughing while talking, her palm-sized face was almost bloodless.

"The matter of marriage is entirely up to the saint and the grandmother."

"I, ahem, I believe in uncle and grandma."

Han Jiaojiao forced out a shy smile, with awe of the emperor and admiration for the queen mother in her timid eyes.

Queen Mother Han: ...What a good boy.

"Okay! Don't worry! The Ai family will definitely find you a good husband!"

That Zhao family, after all, is a bit superficial, not worthy of her daughter of the Han family.

Feeling the change in Queen Mother Han's mood, Han Jiaojiao was shocked.

She hurriedly coughed several times, covered her mouth with a veil, and said quietly, "Actually, I prefer to stay at home."

"...Ahem, cough! With my body, if I get married, I can't take care of myself, and secondly, I can't have children. If I get married, I will bring trouble to others."

At this point, Han Jiaojiao's eyes sparkled with tears, "Grandma and uncle will also be in trouble because of me."

Queen Mother Han: ...Although these words may sound heartbreaking, but they are true.

Alas, Jiaojiao is good at everything, but her body is too weak and her temperament is too weak.

Even if you marry into an in-law's family, you will inevitably be wronged.

For example, in the Han family or Jiaojiao's own home.

With her high status and high status, and being favored by the palace, she was actually squeezed out by her stepmother and bullied by her concubine daughter.

Empress Dowager Han could indeed rely on her status to directly issue an edict to grant a marriage.

It can also help Nanping suppress her husband's family up and down.

However, marriage is a good relationship between the two families, not an enemy.

If the mother-in-law has resentment, it will be like Mrs. Cheng Engong and Princess Yongjia back then.

Princess Yongjia is still bright and strong, so she was wronged by her mother-in-law, and she was so angry with a concubine who was born as a lowly maid?
Thinking of that lowly maidservant, the Empress Dowager Han was filled with resentment.

Mrs. Cheng Engong is a younger brother and sister, and Han Chong is a nephew. It is not good for the Empress Dowager Han to criticize directly.

She simply blamed the death of Princess Yongjia on that lowly servant girl.

At that time, the Empress Dowager Han wanted to let Nanny Zhou and others strangle the lowly maidservant to death, but unexpectedly, the lowly maidservant was pregnant.

For the sake of the blood of the Han family, the Queen Mother Han had no choice but to "endure" again.

She was so aggrieved that she almost suffered internal injuries!
She could not kill that lowly servant girl, but she really couldn't develop any good feelings for that lowly servant girl and her children.

The grand-nephew's daughter, the Empress Dowager Han only recognizes Han Jiaojiao.

But Jiaojiao, alas, I really can't help myself.

It's not intentional to compare with others, but in terms of appearance, talent, learning, conduct, etc., Jiaojiao is indeed inferior to her concubine sister.

In Beijing, the concubine's reputation and limelight were stronger than Jiaojiao's.

Empress Dowager Han understood one thing about her adopted daughter, her grandson daughter and her great-nephew daughter -

Some things cannot be forced by power!
"Perhaps, the emperor is right. In Jiaojiao's situation, it is better to marry a humble scholar!"

Empress Dowager Han sighed secretly when she saw Han Jiaojiao's crooked and weak appearance.

At worst, wait for the son to pass the Jinshi examination, let the emperor do more inspections, and make sure that he has excellent character and a clean family style, and then marry Nanping.

When getting married, arrange a few more nuns and guards for Nanping, let them take good care of Nanping, supervise and deter Nanping's in-laws.

With sufficient arrangements, life in Nanping should not be too bad.

As for the future, alas, with Nanping's dilapidated body, what future can she have?
……

Empress Dowager Han made a decision, and unknowingly, some rumors came out.

Slowly, a piece of news spread from the palace——

"The Queen Mother and the Saint want to choose a husband for Princess Nanping among the new scholars!"

As soon as the news came out, the unmarried sons and daughters of nobles and their families in Jingzhong and Nanping princess who were about the same age were all heaved a sigh of relief.

That's great, I'm finally not afraid of being "touched" by Princess Nanping.

Many people are worried about what to do if the queen mother insists on forcing her son (grandson) to marry Nanping by using her power to overwhelm others for the sake of Nanping.

Nanping, a well-known sick child in Beijing.

I spend half of the year recuperating from illness.

As soon as he entered Beijing, he lost his stepmother's housekeeping rights.

After entering the palace once, the stepmother was simply sent to a nunnery on the outskirts of the city.

This is still the stepmother, a legitimate elder.

He didn't do anything out of the ordinary, just because of Nanping's poor health, he was punished one after another.

He lost all face and face, and has long been the laughing stock of the capital.

Many ladies, while laughing at the step-wife of the Han family, couldn't help but bring in their own identities——

If my son marries such a daughter-in-law with a special status but also sick, what kind of situation will he face?
Want to impress your mother-in-law?
Hehe, with Nanping's swaying body, when serving tea, if she slowed down a little, she might faint on the spot.

Maybe even spit out two mouthfuls of blood.

Although everyone knew that Nanping was in poor health, if she was a mother-in-law, she would "force" her daughter-in-law to vomit blood.

This word, it is easy to say or not.

There are also husbands, as children of wealthy families, there are always one or two pets.

But Nanping's mother, Princess Yongjia, was pissed to death because of "envy".

From mother to daughter, even if Nanping is not as staunch as Yongjia, and only a little bit of inheritance, it can still make her husband bear the infamy of "spoiling concubines and destroying wives" for nothing!

Of course, there is the most important point - heirs!
Which family does not marry a daughter-in-law for the purpose of spreading branches and spreading leaves and prolonging children?
But Nanping is sick and weak. It is difficult enough for her to live by herself. Can she bear the pain of childbirth and childbirth?

... Just such a daughter-in-law, she can't talk about it, she can't control it, the mother-in-law has to coax her, the husband has to pay for her, and she can't have children yet.

What are you going to do when you get married?
Add trouble to yourself?
Or cause trouble for the family? !

But Nanping has the love of the supreme mother and child in the palace, and all the ladies are worried that they will be used as "sacrifices" by the saint or the queen mother.

Well now, the queen mother and the sage want to choose a son-in-law for Nanping from a poor family, and these powerful families can escape.

While everyone was secretly rejoicing, they were also waiting to see the excitement of the Han family.

Hey, I don't know if Princess Nanping will be sick from vomiting if she knows the news.

Marrying down, in a sense, is also a kind of indifference to women, and even humiliating.

"Haha! Good! The empress dowager is wise! The sage is wise!"

In the nunnery, a middle-aged lady who looked a little haggard laughed excitedly when she heard the rumors outside.

There was pleasure in her eyes, as well as a hint of madness.

In the past few years, she was almost suffocated to death.

Back then, as her cousin, she caused trouble for Princess Yongjia.

Afterwards, Yongjia's daughter became ill and made things difficult for her.

The dignified Mrs. Shizi of the Duke's Mansion has become a joke of common people in the market after dinner.

The step-wife, who was not very broad-minded, was directly distorted.

She was filled with hate.

The queen mother is honorable, she dare not hold grudges.

The stepwife recorded all the accounts on Yongjia's mother and daughter.

During the three years in the nunnery, she cursed at the Bodhisattva statue every day: Yongjia will not have peace after death, and he will not be reborn forever!Nanping was plagued by illness and had to die!
After cursing for three years, my stepwife also cursed the little man for three years.

Even if Nanping Princess Han Jiaojiao pleaded for mercy, the step-wife was able to return to the Duke's mansion, and the step-wife did not show any gratitude to Han Jiaojiao.

She hated it more and more: "This little bitch did it on purpose. She wanted to tell me that without her, I wouldn't even be able to come back to the capital!"

Han Jiaojiao: ... Isn't this the truth?

It was indeed true, and Mrs. Ke Ji felt that she had been humiliated.

In front of Han Jiaojiao, her stepmother seemed to have lost her dignity and dignity!
Han Jiaojiao: ... Hypocritical!
Han Jiaojiao didn't pay attention to a defeated general like Mrs. Stephanie at all.

No matter how much trouble she caused for her mother, Han Jiaojiao paid it back with interest.

Well, the grudges have been settled!
It's just that the stepwife doesn't think so, she has all the old and new grudges in her heart.

I only hate God for being unfair, the Queen Mother and the saint are protecting Han Jiaojiao.

The stepwife did not dare to provoke.

However, the step-wife may not find trouble, but it cannot stop her from "gloating".

"Oh, I want to go and congratulate our princess."

"What a wonderful marriage, the peasant family is poor, the mother-in-law must be a powerful one, she has worked hard to raise her son, and even supported her to study..."

The step-wife became more and more excited as she talked.

Anyway, she used to be the head of the Han family's mistress, a well-informed scholar raised by a widowed mother, tsk tsk, it sounds "very interesting".

In the past, when the step-wife was still a cousin, she heard a piece of gossip in the capital.

He was also a new scholar who was raised by a widowed mother and was made a son-in-law by a certain uncle.

As a result, the good daughter of the uncle's mansion was turned into an old lady.

This is fine, after all, there is no mother-in-law who does not care about her daughter-in-law.

The reason why this family's story has become a famous "curio" in Beijing is because the words and deeds of the mother and son were too outrageous.

Can you imagine that on the wedding night, the groom did not have a bridal chamber with the groom, but ran to sleep with his mother.

After marriage, the young couple finally consummated the room. When going to bed, the mother-in-law stayed outside the window.

The two became a little intimate, and the mother-in-law knocked on the window.

The next day, he even pointed at his daughter-in-law and scolded her as "a little whore who knows how to pester men." This made the daughter-in-law feel ashamed and embarrassed, and she wished she could faint!

Even though she was the one who stopped her daughter-in-law from getting close to her son, she thought her daughter-in-law was a hen that didn't lay eggs!
Outsiders were shocked when they heard this anecdote.

This "miraculous" widowed mother has single-handedly discredited the group of widowed mothers and made it more difficult for widowed mothers to marry their daughters-in-law.

In fact, this is only a very small number.

More widowed mothers are pitiful and respectable.

However, it is precisely because of the small number that it becomes news and is discussed by the world.

Slowly, people have a prejudice against the group of widowed mothers.

In fact, the step-wife didn't know which poor family the queen mother fell in love with.

It's just that the story back then was so novel that when she heard about the poor family's marriage, she would think of that magical widowed mother-in-law.

"I just hope that Han Jiaojiao will also meet such a 'good mother-in-law'!"
