Daughter Raiders

Chapter 50 The Concubine Room
The days that followed flew by quickly.The Su family very low-key sent away the second master who went to Chengdu to take office, and held a flower viewing banquet in a high-profile manner. In a blink of an eye, it was the end of March, and the aunt that the eldest aunt Su Wanran had found for her natal girls was also invited from her hometown in Shandong. Cheng said that he would be able to arrive in the capital by the end of April.

Tao Ran heard that her nurturing aunt was coming, so she drew a pattern herself, and begged Cuijuan to teach her how to make a book bag—although her female celebrity was learned for a long time in the previous life, she was very handy, but now she is just a Children over six years old can't reveal the truth, right?

The old lady saw that she and Cuijuan were studying seriously, so she didn't shy away from her, and asked Shen's mother softly, if she could find a good-looking girl for her in the past few days, and would like to send the girl to Su's residence Come to be a good concubine for the third master.

"The concubine daughter of Li Yuan's family in the west of the city is 16 years old this year. She looks like a good-born woman, but unfortunately there are a few shallow white pockmarks on her face; the daughter of Guo Xiucai in the north of the city looks stronger and has a good sense of consciousness. Some words, but this year is eighteen..."

Shen's mother looked as if she couldn't decide for herself, but she had some considerations in her heart.

Although as the saying goes, it’s called concubinage and sex, it’s better if you can add fragrance to the red sleeves, but if it’s a concubine for the third master, it’s for the purpose of having a male heir, so Shangshen’s mother prefers to find a woman with a thin waist, fat hips and wide hips Yes, at first glance, it looks like she can give birth to a son.

The concubine daughter of Li Yuan's family is also a silent one, so she should be easier to deal with than Guo Xiucai's daughter. Although she looks a bit ordinary, she just doesn't have the capital of that vixen to disturb the family - just like a horse. Auntie, isn't she such a person?
But how should she tell the old lady about these words, or let the old lady know and ask her to decide for herself.

Tao Ran seemed to follow Cuijuan's instructions wholeheartedly to sprinkle painting powder on the plain brocade, but when Shen's mother mentioned Guo Xiucai's daughter, her hand shook suddenly, and the painting powder in her hand was immediately crooked, and it was sprinkled into a group……

In the previous life, Guo Xiucai's daughter became her father's concubine, but unfortunately she didn't have the consciousness of being a concubine.One year after entering the house, she became pregnant, and just returned to the capital to raise her baby, she swaggered in front of her mother every day, and even Aunt Ma became her enemy, and even Su Zicen got a lot of anger from her.

Later, Aunt Guo had a miscarriage. After giving birth to the stillborn eight-month-old baby boy, she died within three days. At that time, the grandmother seemed to have issued a death order to find out why, but it was nothing after all. It was hard to see Su Zicen's face again - Su Zicen was raised by his mother to the knees, but he was still a bastard in the genealogy.

Those two years in the third room were really smoky, and there was no good day to live... If it wasn't for this reason, my grandmother would not have sent a letter to my father who was far away in Liaodong Mansion, asking him to find a doctor for Xianyun to take good care of him. some.

So now, should she play a trick and not let this woman surnamed Guo come in?But what if my grandmother misunderstood her and thought she had listened to her mother's advice?

Because Tao Ran concealed it very well, Cuijuan couldn't tell that she was absent-minded. Seeing that the paint was spilled crookedly, she just smiled lightly and wiped off the ball of paint with a damp cloth; This painting powder is not some loose powder, it’s fine if it’s a hard ball.”

The old lady heard the whispering, and immediately turned her head to look; seeing that Tao Ran was staring at the ruler in a daze in frustration, Cuijuan stopped telling her to sprinkle painting powder, but took the scissors and cut it up. When the fabric came, the shape was cut out in an instant, and he smiled and beckoned Tao Ran to go to her side.

"You are small and have small hands. You can't do so many things at once. What's the matter? Just learn slowly and carefully in the days to come." The old lady smiled and hugged Tao Ran who had washed her hands in her arms to comfort her. Tao Ran nodded dejectedly, then gave Shen's mother a wink, meaning to talk to her later.

Shen's mother bent her knees and backed out, only the grandparents and grandchildren were left in the old lady's room, and Cuijuan who tidied up the ruler.

"The nurturing aunt won't come to our house for a month, and the female teacher that your uncle and grandmother hired for our house will have to wait for her to arrive before starting classes together. What are you doing in a hurry to make schoolbags? Your sister Cuijuan's needlework It's nice and neat, and it will be ready for you in three or two days." The old lady hated the children around her the most.

Only now did Tao Ran laugh, and pointed at the pattern on the kang table embarrassingly: "Miss Tao wants to embroider by herself according to that pattern... Isn't it said that the stupid bird flies first?"

The old lady smiled and spat at her: "How can you fly first and where can you fly, you little stupid bird? Be careful that the schoolbag you embroidered can't be carried to school."

The grandparents and grandson laughed and quarreled again, and the old lady was tired, so she put Tao Ran on the kang and called Cui'e to make tea.Cui'e seemed to have known for a long time that the old lady was going to take a concubine for the third master, and thinking of her sister Xianyun's situation in the third room, she couldn't help but look a little sad.

The old lady was a fine person, so when she saw this, she asked Cui'e in a low voice: "Are you going to see your sister again?"

Then without waiting for Cui'e to answer, she remembered that Sister Tao was still by her side, and hurriedly told Tao Ran to go back to the East Wing: "I'll ask Mama Yang to bring you over when it's time for dinner."

It was already warm spring at the end of March, Tao Ran was only wearing a thin jacket, and his movements were much more agile than in winter. Only then did I bring up the topic again: "It's because you are a good person that I gave your sister a high look, and I wanted to wait for your third master to give her a face before leaving Beijing, and tell her to go with her in a good manner."

"But now the matter of your third master's release has been postponed, and there is no precedent in our family where a maid directly lifts up my aunt. If you are really worried about your sister's situation, would you like me to change her errand?"

That's what the old lady said, but it's actually quite difficult.Now that Xianyun has served in the study of the third child, she belongs to the third child. She suddenly asked her son to come out, and regardless of whether she opened the mouth well or not, even if Xianyun could really leave the third room, there was no way she could stay in the third room. This is where I live in the back house.

If you point her to a boy from the outer court who is married, that girl is not old enough, and anyone with a discerning eye can understand what's going on without asking. Wouldn't it be bad for the third child's reputation?

"I took care of the old lady for my sister, thank you old lady." Cui'e suppressed her sorrow: "But how can I make it difficult for you for my sister."

"It's a great blessing for her to serve in the third master's study. No matter how hard or tired she is, she can't forget her identity. What's the difference between being spoiled and being proud?"

Cui'e spoke up to this point, knowing that she couldn't do anything, but she was choking up unbearably; she also knew that she had committed a big taboo and shouldn't cry in front of the old lady, so she immediately knelt on the ground to plead guilty.

The old lady called Cuijuan to come over to help her up, but at the same time she was extremely suspicious——Cui'e is a girl who understands the rules the most, why does she look like a different person today?Could it be that there are other reasons here?
