Little lucky girl from the peasant family: Queen Splendid

Chapter 227 Messy old man

Fang Cheng, like the other elders of the pavilion, were drinking tea, waiting for lunch to be delivered from the imperial dining room. Seeing Dong Ge come in with an old grunt, he wondered, "Master Dong, what's the matter, but the general is concerned about the embankment repair in Lishui. Disagree?"

Mr. Dong Ge waved his hand, poured two cups of herbal tea before saying, "There is nothing wrong with the political affairs, but Miss Nading actually went to Guangming Palace to accompany the general to have a meal. Guangming Palace is where the general handles government affairs. She is a woman , how can you move around easily?"

"Is the general annoyed?" The rest of the elders also frowned and asked.

When Elder Dong Ge heard the words, his expression became even more embarrassing, "General... Hey, as soon as the general heard that Miss Ding had arrived, he immediately kicked us out."

"This..." Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to speak.

Even if he becomes emperor immediately, the general will always be a man.If you are a man, there is a beauty pass that you can't pass.

Although Miss Ding is not an outstanding beauty, she is definitely the general's favorite.

In the past, many people thought that the girl's status was too low. Now, after all the troubles of Princess Qingcheng, they feel that low status has its advantages.

As for the matter of being too close to the general, well, which woman is not careful.What's more, it's not easy for a courtier to go to the emperor's boudoir...

But Dong Ge always had an old-fashioned temper, and he always talked about the rules on weekdays, but now he didn't want people to make trouble, knocked his finger on the table and said, "The general will be enthroned soon, and then the harem will be sealed off. Even if the queen's position is not good enough to disobey the general, it must be given to Miss Ding, but the position of the noble concubine and the fourth concubine must not be left empty. In a few days, why don't we jointly sign a memorial and ask the general to order the selection of concubines? .”

"Can this be done?" Several elders were hesitant, but there was a golden light in their eyes.After all, every family has several beautiful daughters-in-law, concubines, or nieces and granddaughters. It is impossible to recognize a "righteous daughter" outside. If they are sent to the harem, once they are favored, their own family will always benefit.

But if the gun hits the bird first, if this incident angers the general, wouldn't it mean that the fox missed it and caused a commotion!

How could Mr. Dong Ge fail to see the scruples of the few people, and secretly scolded them for wanting to benefit and not stretching their heads, but it is not easy to persecute them, so they can only turn their heads to find Prime Minister Fang.

"Master Fang, what do you think?"

It was rare for Prime Minister Fang to reply, "Master Dong also knows that our Fang family has only one son, and most of the girls in the family are stupid, and they can't be brought out to embarrass themselves. So, please discuss this matter, my lords. There are still some things, so I’ll come back.”

After that, he smiled and got up, Shi Shi ran away.

Dong Ge was so angry that he blew his beard and stared at his eyes. He wanted to scold a few words but didn't dare, so he could only swallow this breath secretly.

It was an old man who remembered the gossip he had heard a few days ago and said, "I heard that Mrs. Fang wants to take that Miss Ding as a foster daughter. If Prime Minister Fang agrees to choose a concubine, wouldn't he be turning his elbows away?"

"So that's how it is," Elder Dong Ge suddenly realized, and twitched the corners of his lips contemptuously, "It's the old man who doesn't know what's going on, which makes Mr. Fang angry."

The rest of the elders quickly smiled and said, "It would be better if Mr. Fang didn't join us. Come, Mr. Dong! Let's discuss how to speak and send the memorial to the general tomorrow."

Not to mention how enthusiastically the elders were discussing, but to say that Ding Wei and Gong Zhiming were sitting in front of the cabinet window, chatting leisurely while eating lunch.

Ding Wei remembered Dong Ge's appearance just now, and couldn't help but gloated and laughed, "That old man just now is probably annoyed that I have no rules. Maybe your ears will be unclean this afternoon."

"It's nothing, just listen." Gong Zhiming took a piece of stewed beef and sent it to Ding Wei's bowl, urging her to eat more, and replied indifferently.

Ding Wei raised her eyebrows, gulped down the beef, and said vaguely, "I don't care, you deal with these old men. In the future, Brother An and I will live here. If you don't have time to go to the harem for dinner, I will bring my son here. If you don't open your eyes The old man made irresponsible remarks, I can sprinkle a handful of powder and let him go play chess with Lord Yan."

Gong Zhiming didn't wait for a response, but Uncle Yun, who was eating at a small table not far away, accidentally coughed.

Only then did Ding Wei remember that there was an old man in the room, so she quickly explained with a blushing face, "Uncle Yun, don't worry too much, I'm just talking."

Uncle Yun waved his hands vigorously, managed to calm himself down, but said with a smile, "Miss, you're being polite, I just want to have dinner with the little master, it must be more lively."

"That kid is just naughty, don't talk about the excitement, as long as we don't make too much noise for us to eat." Ding Wei brought another bowl of meatball soup to the old man on the table, then sat down again, and ate properly.

In the end, seeing the smile in Gong Zhiming's eyes, he couldn't help but give him a hard look, and said in a low voice, "It's all your fault for laughing!"

"Okay, it's all my fault!" Gong Zhiming didn't dare to refute, so he quickly picked up another piece of chicken with his chopsticks, "Don't bother about trivial matters, Wei Bo told you to take care of yourself."

Thinking of her old urchin master, Ding Wei had a headache. At breakfast, she said that the food made by the imperial dining room was not "clean", but now she ran to eat alone, and called it "trying", thanks to his old man Said the export.

However, the "family ugliness" is not publicized, and the disciples have to work hard to maintain the image of the master as a genius doctor.

"Understood, I'll drink another bowl of soothing soup after dinner."

The two talked and laughed and ate, Gong Zhiming had to deal with political affairs, and Ding Wei was too busy to take a nap, so they continued to separate and fight on their own.

After being so busy for two days, most of the palace affairs have been dealt with, and all the idle palaces have been locked. From now on, it will be cleaned every few days.

As a result, Ding Wei became worried again facing the thick stack of lists.There are only three people in Gongzhi's family, including her untrained daughter-in-law and An Geer who is just learning to speak.With a small population, naturally there would not be so many maids and eunuchs to serve them.Not to mention wasting money and food, it is not easy to control the crowd.

No way, a group of court ladies and eunuchs are about to be released.

Needless to say, the elderly have accumulated some money, whether they go to the tribe or simply go out of the palace and buy a small courtyard to live in for the rest of their lives.If there is really no place to stay, those rich and noble families are willing to invite two back home to teach their children etiquette, and they will have a good face when they say it.

As for those who are young, those who have not entered the palace for two years don't need to worry about it, it is best to keep it.

Only those women who are over [-] years old, old and homeless are the most difficult things to deal with.In the end, Nanny Gu had more ways to do it, and when she drove home at night, she nodded at Cheng Tieniu's generous back.

Ding Wei suddenly realized, so the disabled soldiers, besides arranging errands for the palace, the court had another great favor.If the family is not engaged, you can also marry a court lady as a daughter-in-law.

Of course, this can't be forced to match the man, Ding Wei specially thought of a way to open a small door of convenience for the maids.

Lin Liu helped to find a big courtyard outside the Tongming Gate. The homeless maids sat in the house, while the wounded soldiers stood in the courtyard. If the maids saw each other, someone would bring the wounded soldiers to the side. In the small hall, the two said a few words, if the wounded soldier also took a fancy to the maid, everyone would be happy, if not, then continue to look for it.

Originally thought it was just an expedient measure, but unexpectedly, it was appreciated and welcomed by the seriously wounded soldiers and palace ladies.

The ladies of the palace had seen enough of falling out of favor in the court, so they wanted to find someone to rely on for a lifetime, regardless of whether he was handsome or not.

Wounded soldiers also want to find a wife who can live a good life. As long as they don't dislike him for being disabled, even if the maids are not necessarily innocent, if they can survive in the palace, they always have good minds and rules and take care of housework. , teaching children is always wrong.

As a result, both parties let go of their shyness, as long as they enter the small hall to meet alone, there are very few failures...

Those who returned home, those who were hired away by high-ranking families, those who got married, and the palace people were gradually separated away like a stream of water, and soon the harem became clean.

Marquis Wu's mansion also began to check the luggage to be taken to the palace, as well as the staff who entered the palace to serve.

Gu Nanny was old enough to stay in Wuhou Mansion to enjoy the blessings.But it is said that there is an old man in the family, such as a treasure. Ding Wei's mother and son first entered the palace, and there is always some discomfort.

As for Yunying and Danggui, they will definitely follow.

Sister-in-law Cheng is An Ge'er's nanny, and the second baby and the eldest baby are both young, so it's okay to enter the palace together.

The only difficult thing is Yunya and Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing is married to Xiaofuzi, if she enters the palace, won't the young couple be separated?But if she was left behind, there would be no helper on the stove for a while.

There was no other way, Ding Wei invited Li Shenzi back from the manor, and wanted to borrow Xiaoqing to the palace for a few months, and after Lianqiao had graduated as a cook, she would transfer Xiaoqing back to Wuhou Mansion as the internal manager.

Aunt Li is in charge of the manor now, and her horizons are much wider than before. Hearing that her daughter-in-law is going to serve in the palace, and she will have a housekeeper later, how could she not be happy.As for the thoughts of looking forward to the grandson, they were all thrown to the back of his mind.

In the end, only Yun Ya was left. This girl's temperament was too delicate and naive, and she was really not suitable for entering the palace.When asked about her future, the girl blushed and refused to speak.

In the end, the straight-tempered Xiaoqing ran to find Cheng Tieniu, who knelt down and begged Ding Wei to assign Yunya to him.He even swore that he would treat Yun Ya well in the future, even if she was really barren and found a child to adopt, he would not abandon her.

Everyone was happy for Yunya and envious at the same time.

Ding Wei directly took 20 taels of silver, four bolts of good silk, and a set of gold jewelry, and gave Yun Ya as a dowry, so that the two could rush to their hometown to get married as soon as possible.In the future, if you don't want to live in your hometown, you will come back. With so many shops and manors, there will always be a place for two people to shine.

Yun Ya shed tears and said that she couldn't bear the crowd, and everyone hugged her and cried, and finally each gave her some things to add makeup to her.

After everything was settled, Ding Wei chose a sunny day, and Ding Wei took her maid, took her son in her arms, and entered the palace with three carts of luggage.
