Fair Lady

Mu Shuiling's face paled in an instant, she knew that her aunt was a straight-talking person, but she never opened her mouth.Compete with Xia Shuyao?Even her eldest brother Mu Yongqi lost to her, so it's ugly to lose?

Mu Shuiling was really annoyed, Xia Shuyao was definitely her nemesis, once she ran into Xia Shuyao, everything was out of control.

"Mother, I...I'm just worried that Qianqian...learned crookedly at the beginning...I won't be able to make up for Go in the future." Mu Shuiling murmured, "I...I don't mean to disbelieve sister Yaoer .”

Yao Xuelan really didn't want to talk to her, so she sighed: "Forget it, you don't need to worry about Qianqian's upbringing. Your marriage is settled, so you should spend more time preparing the wedding dress and learning more from the upbringing mother." There are some principles of being a director, after all, being a daughter-in-law in someone else's house is no better than being in your mother's house, no one will indulge you."

"Yes, mother, Shui Ling will leave." No matter how unconvinced Mu Shuiling was, she could only leave obediently. Recently, her aunt has been emphasizing one sentence with her: "A man must be able to stretch and contract, let alone a little girl who needs to rely on others." woman?"

Fortunately, her marriage has finally been settled. In the future, she will be a serious official wife, a regular wife and noble lady, and her children will no longer be crowned with the word "shu". On such a happy day, she is smart and naturally chooses "shrunk".

After Mu Shuiling left, Yao Xuelan sighed: "That kid from the Ma family is really nice. Even if there is any discord between them in the future, I believe it is Mu Shuiling's fault."

"Ma's family?" Mama Liu blurted out a little strangely.

Yao Xuelan was stunned, and then smiled and said, "It's not the Ma family of General Ma. It's the Ma family of the Royal Merchant, who started the timber business. The family of General Huwei originated from the Northeast, and the Ma family of the Royal Merchant is from the authentic South." people."

"Oh, Ma Qilang, right? Then the eldest girl of your family really met Bao." Mother Liu remembered that the house was really good, and she had also heard about Ma Qilang, and felt that it was a loss for Ma Qilang to set up Mu Shuiling. big.

Yao Xuelan smiled wryly, of course she could hear Mother Liu's disdain for Mu Shuiling.But there is no way, after all, she is the only concubine in the Weiyuan Hou Mansion.For the sake of Master Hou and himself, he couldn't find someone too bad for Mu Shuiling, right?

Shuyao secretly smiled, Mu Shuiling did indeed "find a treasure".In her previous life, Mu Shuiling was also married to Ma Qilang. I heard that Ma Qilang not only passed the Jinshi examination, but also became the No. 1 biography.The people are also very nice.

It's a pity that Mu Shuiling didn't know how to cherish it. Not only did she force Ma Qilang to separate her family, but she also killed the concubine (Mu Shuiling only had two daughters in her previous life), and ran back to the Hou's mansion every three days to ask Master Hou and Yao Xuelan to be her masters.At that time, she hated Shuyao very much, because she felt that the Weiyuan Hou Mansion was willing to come forward to support Shuyao, an outsider, but refused to plan for her, a genuine aunt.

Although I don't like Mu Shuiling.Shuyao and Mother Liu didn't want to make Yao Xuelan feel awkward, so they quickly changed the topic.

What women like to talk about in gossip is marriage and pregnancy.Who is a perfect match with whom, who is not good enough for whom, who has been married for several years and has not conceived yet...

The newly joined Mrs. Du brought a piece of gossip about infertility: "Just now I heard from my sister-in-law that on the way she came, she saw Imperial Physician Xu just came out of Mrs. Yu's mansion, the second place in the double list. Mrs. Yu, Ma Guifei's niece Ma Ling'er has never been pregnant, Madam Ma is in a hurry. Concubine Ma was taken care of, and Imperial Doctor Xu, who is best at gynecology, was specially invited. There is no way. People always ask questions at the banquet."

Yao Xuelan also sighed: "Then Yu Zhengran is pretty good. Speaking of which, the last Jinshi was the best, especially Sandingjia, with excellent talents and learning, and good character. Shujie and Yu Zhengran are once in a hundred years. , It’s hard to find any more, let’s not talk about both civil and military skills, the rare ones are all people who are passionate. Then Yu Zhengran has been married for more than half a year, right? Ma Ling’er has never heard of it, and I have never heard of him taking a concubine. , it is said that there is not even a housemaid."

Shuyao, who "concentrates" on playing chess with Qianqian, sighs secretly: It's a pity that fate is bad.She didn't know that Yu Zhengran, she only saw him twice at the banquet in the mansion from afar.But Ma Ling'er is a member of the Ma family, so Shuyao still knew a lot when she paid attention to the news of the Ma family in her previous life (I had to pay attention. At that time, Shuyao was very afraid that the Ma family would revive, and she would be in trouble again. If it wasn't for the Ma family Complete decline, how could Shuyao dare to enter Beijing at that time?)

In her previous life, Ma Ling'er was married to the number one scholar in civil and martial arts (Shu Yao thought it was Yu Zhengran, because her elder brother Shu Jie did not participate in the scientific examination in her previous life, so Yu Zhengran should be the only one who won the double number one in civil and military affairs). After many years of marriage, she finally became pregnant with a My son, it's just that when the Ma family suddenly collapsed, it happened that Ma Ling'er gave birth, and the result was dystocia. It was rumored that he jumped off a cliff, but in the end no one was sure whether he was dead or alive.

It seems that Yu Zhengran's friendship with his eldest brother is not bad, but unfortunately, this is a matter involving a battle for the crown prince, Shuyao must not dare to "remind" something self-righteously?It can only be said that everyone has their own fate, since Yu Zhengran chose to marry the Ma family, he naturally has his own calculations.

Thinking of this, Shuyao also became a little curious, who will be the final crown prince?In the previous life, until the time of her death, it seemed that the crown prince had not yet been established.But at that time, the second prince had been imprisoned in a remote and wild place, and it was said that the strongest contenders were only the eldest prince and the fourth prince, the two oldest sons.

Also, on the day when the wealthy businessman Li Muhai went to the Marquis Mansion of Weiyuan to ask Aunt Lan to marry her, she overheard in the Marquis Mansion that the King of Northern Qi seemed to have found some formula for firearms, and that he had set up another court in the Northeast to compete with the Japanese and Fan People colluded, and the emperor's court was in danger.

Uh, everyone knows that the current emperor already has the secret formula of firearms, and Prince Yong has already used them in the southwestern border, so there shouldn't be any danger of turmoil in this world, right?

Prince Yong's Mansion belongs to generals, and Prince Yong and Qi Haoning are both in the most dangerous place now, and his adoptive father and eldest brother are people close to the emperor, so they will definitely rush to danger in any critical situation.Therefore, although Shuyao doesn't understand politics, she still hopes that those factors of instability will be eliminated quickly, that there will be less wars and no social turmoil, and Dazhou will always be as stable as it is now.Her happy life in this life has just begun!

"Sister Yaoer, sister Yaoer, it's your turn." Qianqian's little meaty hand shook Shuyao, pouted dissatisfiedly: "Don't think about it for so long, I'm going to lose again."

Yao Xuelan, who was startled and turned her head, laughed: "Your sister Yao'er is obviously in a daze, you always lose, sister Yao'er is boring, and she is starting to be dazed." Yao Xuelan was happy to give Qianqian a blow, lest she would be flattered by her father and brother It's boundless.

Qianqian was really frustrated: "Really, Sister Yao'er? But I just learned it."

"Of course not. We Qianqian are very good. If we study for a while longer, Sister Yao'er may not win." Shuyao hurriedly encouraged, "However, you can't give up halfway."

Qianqian nodded straightly: "Yeah, Qianqian never gives up halfway."

Everyone was amused again...

Every time I go to Weiyuanhou Mansion, time always flies by very fast.On the carriage back home, Shuyao smiled and said, "There are really a lot of people engaged this year."

"It's always been like this every year, batch after batch of children have grown up," Liu's mother said with a smile, "It's just that there are quite a lot of girls of the same age as you around us, so it's very obvious. We wouldn't pay attention to it in previous years, would we?"

"That's right," Shuyao nodded, "Mom, in the spring of next year, Zhen Keling is really going to marry in the capital. How old is she? She will only be 12 years old next year." Zhen Keling is two years younger than Shuyao, 11 years old this year .Under normal circumstances, no matter what, they will marry at the age of 14 and consummate the house after Jiji.For example, in her previous life, she was stuffed into a sedan chair and sent to the mansion of General Huwei at the age of 14, but she escaped and did not worship.

Mother Liu curled her lips: "There is no rule on how old you can get married. As long as both parties are willing, you can marry into a man's family as soon as you are born, and no one will say anything. Isn't that what child brides are like? To put it bluntly, the Murong family and the Ding family are now It's just to find a reliable personal servant girl for Murong Jun to take care of him. The younger you are, the better you can control him, so that you won't worry too much in the future."

In the previous life, the reason why Ma Mansion and Murong Mansion were able to wait until Shuyao was 14 years old was because Murong Mansion was a respectable family after all, even if they wanted to repay their kindness and keep their promises, they couldn't just marry off the "eldest daughter", right?

……

Shuyao and Liu's mother were chatting happily when the carriage stopped suddenly and the four of them almost fell forward.

Mother Liu was about to ask, but the coachman asked nervously outside, "Is the girl all right? There is a drunk."

Before the groom finished speaking, another tongue-in-cheek voice came from outside: "Who?...Who is the drunk?...I'm not drunk, who the hell dares to say I'm drunk? Hurry...help me up!  … ...bring you some wine."

The coachman shouted angrily, accompanied by the sound of the whip hitting the shaft: "Where did the drunk come from? My girl is in the car, how can you offend me?"

Lan Jin angrily moved to the door of the car, gearing up: Who would dare to block the carriage of the Yongping Hou Mansion?Auntie, I practice boxing and palm every day, and I am worried that there will be no living targets. I don’t care if you are really drunk or fake.

Mother Liu took the valance hanging from the carriage wall and put it on for Shuyao, just in case.As for the danger, she wasn't very worried. The poisons on the girl and Lan Jin were not just for fun, and she had seen with her own eyes how fast the girl's needles were released.

The big tongue outside continued to yell: "Girl? What I want is a girl. Get the hell out of here."

The sound of "bang" and "gurgling" came in continuously, it seemed that the coachman was kicked away, Shu Yao frowned, it seemed that this "drunk man" might not be simple.

It was too late, but it was so fast, the door was pushed open suddenly.And almost at the same time, Lan Jin slashed out his right palm, grabbed the hand that was too late to take back, and pushed forward with his left palm. Mother Liu and Zijin saw a small piece of pink mist being pushed out by her, and then they heard There was a scream of "ah---". (To be continued.
