Chapter 60

Before the third lady could finish her sentence, Aunt Li covered her mouth and said, "Don't say it quickly, how can you say these words, if people listen to them, what good will it do? Alright, Strange aunt, I just said all the things that made you sad, I promised my aunt not to say these words in the future, you are a girl, how can you talk about things in father's house? You must remember this principle."

The third lady was covered by her aunt, so she knew that she had said it, so she nodded hurriedly, pulled her hand down, and said: "Don't worry, aunt, I understand this, I just said it in a hurry, in the future No, even if it's not for myself, I will think about my aunt's difficulties and restrain myself, don't worry!"

Seeing that she was serious about what she said, Aunt Li was relieved, seeing that it was getting late outside, she didn't dare to ramble, so she thought about it carefully, and asked: "Rui'er, Auntie asked You, what do you think of the aunt's coming home? If you have any ideas, just tell me well, don't be shy, Auntie can help you think about it, is it feasible?"

The third girl also knew that time was limited, so it was not the time to be shy, so she nodded and said: "I don't have any other specific ideas, I just think that since the old lady and madam think Ningxihou's Mansion is a good place, I thought that if I It would be nice to be able to go too, but I dare not give any hope, after all, I am a concubine, so I am not worthy of my cousin." When she said this, she really blushed and stopped talking.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Li felt a little chilly. Why did this child have such an idea? Could it be because he met Young Master Biao?So she had a good impression of him. Thinking about it this way, Aunt Li couldn't care less about her daughter's shyness, and hurriedly asked: "What kind of talk is this? Do you want to be your cousin as a concubine? This is absolutely impossible, so don't say it." Your father and wife and the old lady agree or not, but I don’t want to. Don’t you know what kind of life my aunt is living? These hardships, it’s fine for my aunt to suffer alone. I definitely don’t want to and don’t agree with you It’s been a while.” Speaking of this is already a bit harsh.

The third lady might as well be so excited that my aunt was so excited, she jumped, her eyes turned red and said: "What are you talking about, I am willing to be a concubine for someone, but have you ever thought about it, I am a concubine after all, if If you want to be a regular wife, you can only be from an ordinary family or a businessman, or the concubine of someone who doesn't know the background, tell me, do you want these people?" Tears welled up in his eyes after speaking Come.

When Aunt Li heard this, she was stunned. She definitely didn't want these people. Her daughter is a lady in the Duke's mansion. She is good at snacks and clothes. The lady of the official family is not bad, how can she be willing to let her daughter live a hard life in the future? Lowly, no matter how poor her daughter's status is, how can Miss Gonghou be wronged like this.

Except for these people who are absolutely impossible, Aunt Li calculates that the rest can only be the young masters of everyone's concubine, but these people will be separated from the house when they get married in the future, and their family property has nothing to do with them. Good-hearted Maybe the mistress can nod her head and give it to a shop or Zhuangzi, but if she meets someone who is cruel, she may only get a house plus a few taels of silver, but this is not enough, her daughter grew up pampered even if she was a concubine , How can I suffer this crime.

This seems to be unworkable, and Aunt Li suddenly thought of the concubine of the aunt's family. Let's not talk about how rich Ningxi Hou's mansion is, but there are only two young masters in the mansion, and the Marquis likes this concubine very much. The young master is likely to give more family property, and if the aunt finds her niece from her natal family in order to control the second young master, then it is impossible for the aunt to not give more family property for the sake of her natal brother. The two are good, not only became a regular wife but also got some family property.

In fact, what moved Aunt Li the most was that I heard that Master Hou valued this concubine's son very much, and that the child was very smart and motivated. It's not easy to get a good job. If my daughter gets married in the future, she won't be blessed.

Thinking of her daughter's possibility of living a wealthy life, Aunt Li made up her mind, looked at her blushing daughter, took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears and said patiently: "Rui'er, it's not that Auntie doesn't understand you, but that concubine I really can't do it, my aunt has thought about it, the concubines and aunts of other families don't dare to think about whether they can make progress and get some family wealth, but my aunt thinks that if you are the second cousin of the aunt's family, you may have a good life." She This is really a thought for my daughter.

I don't want Miss Shi San to lose face immediately when she hears this. Although she knows that Auntie is doing it for her own good, but she is a concubine. This kind of life of being looked down upon by others and having to rely on everything is enough. How can she get married? In order to have to live this kind of life, the hard life of a concubine's child is not something ordinary people can understand. Even if she can live this kind of life, she doesn't want her own children to live this kind of life in the future. As if her child is also a concubine, she naturally doesn't want her child to be looked down upon because her parents are concubines. Is it true that a concubine's son is noble?

Aunt Li looked at her expression and knew that her daughter was thinking about it, so she quickly explained: "Don't be unhappy, the situation of the second cousin is different from that of other concubines. First of all, the second cousin is self-motivated. It is also possible to fight for the vice order, and when you have a rank in you, who will remember that you were once a concubine, and even if the second cousin did not get an official position, but think about how big the Houfu is. There are only two young cousins ​​in the mansion, even if they are divided, can Hou Ye share more for his son who has always been loved and loved?"

After finishing speaking, Aunt Li looked at her daughter with a look of disdain, so she sighed, and persuaded persistently: "Don't be stubborn, Auntie thinks so because she is sure that if the lady wants to keep her son sitting To stabilize the position of the eldest son, she must want to control the second young master who is a concubine, so she is very likely to be willing to find help from her natal family, so I wondered if I could do this good thing."

The third lady had other plans in mind at this time, so she extremely disagreed with Aunt Li's thoughts, she curled her lips unconsciously, and muttered: "So what if I am an aunt, once I marry the second young master from a concubine, my aunt will have her own personality." My daughter-in-law can still care about me, maybe because she doesn't like the second young master, she even dislikes me, then how can I have a good life, let alone the separation of the family, the Hou's mansion will only have two young masters How can Lord Hou and the old lady be willing to split up immediately, it must be possible after the old lady returns to the west, so how should I live these days in the mansion?"

After hearing this, Aunt Li felt stagnant, and said bitterly: "After all, it's your aunt, so it will definitely be much better than going to another house. It doesn't matter whether you want to help your aunt or not, but On the surface, it must be towards her. First, it is for my aunt to live a stable life in the house. Second, if you want the help of your mother's family, don't you have to rely on your aunt? If you are separated from your aunt, we There is an old lady sitting in the mansion, but she won't support you. Because of this, it is impossible for you not to be more aunt-in-law, so even if it is to win you over, the aunt-in-law will give you more property at that time, and she will also treat you. You are better."

At this time, the third lady heard that the aunt's tone was already a little uncertain, and she summoned up her courage, and continued: "Auntie, have you ever thought that if I get married, if I don't have the same heart with my husband, it would be bad to treat him the same way?" Wouldn't it be very disliked by my aunt if my aunt is single-minded, but if my aunt is single-minded, just like my aunt said, let alone how my aunt will treat me, it is impossible for our Duke's mansion to be my help, so I must I have to give up one side, Auntie, help me see, which one can I give up?"

Miss San didn’t ask whether it was spicy or not, which made Aunt Li lose five points just now when she was full of confidence, but thinking about the benefits she had just thought about, she still said hopefully: "If you rely on Auntie , with her backing you, and you have money in your hand, and you are backed by the Duke's Mansion and the Hou Mansion, life is not very happy, because of the backing behind you, my uncle dare not neglect you." Actually, she didn't say anything Yes, when she has a child in the future, she will still be afraid of my uncle, but she can't say this to a girl who hasn't left the court.

The third lady looked at her aunt who was very unwilling to be a concubine for her cousin. Speaking of which, if she was not a concubine, how could she be willing to be a concubine? Besides, if she went to another family to be a concubine, she would definitely not want to , but this is at my aunt's house, no matter if the eldest sister marries her cousin or not, it is impossible for her aunt to make things difficult for herself. Besides, even if the eldest sister marries her cousin, with her temperament, can she please her aunt and cousin?
The third lady thought, with the eldest sister's proud temperament, she would be more humble and smaller, and her aunt and cousin would value her more. If the eldest sister's marriage fails, it would be even better. She is the niece of my aunt's direct relative, so my aunt will definitely look towards her. Besides, she is clear about her cousin's personality. She likes tempered and soft women the most. It will not be a bad day to marry her cousin, Ning Xi The life of the Hou's Mansion is more prosperous than their Duke's Mansion. Thinking of the third lady, she smiled a little, and forgot to return to Auntie's words for a while.

After Aunt Li finished speaking, she waited for her daughter to answer her words. Not only did she not reply, but she even smiled a little. Suddenly, she felt a little uncomfortable. The daughter seemed to be growing up, and she had her own thoughts. Seriously, the tone was a bit harsh: "You should answer, it can't be all of these things, right? Do you want to marry someone to be your stepmother? This is not possible, think about it and let's not talk about your age It is not good to only leave the child behind. Let’s look at how your uncle treats your current aunt. The risk of a stepmother is too great. If it is not done well, it will be for nothing. wedding dress."
