concubine leisurely

Chapter 99

"Master Hou is back." Aunt Rui came up to meet her charmingly. Although she was eager to know the result in her heart, she didn't show it on her face, she only served Zhong Yuan with tenderness.

Zhong Yuan was impatient, hugged Aunt Rui and kissed her a few times, then smiled and said, "It's done!"

"Madam agreed?" Aunt Rui was very pleasantly surprised.I have been favored over the years, and Mrs. Wang often stays alone in the vacant room.It would be nonsense to say that Mrs. Wang is magnanimous and does not hold grudges.If Mrs. Wang wanted to make trouble in Zhong Ling's marriage, it would be very troublesome.

"Not only that, Mrs. Tai also agreed." Zhong Yuan laughed.I thought that both my younger sister and A Wei would marry into the Meng family, and if they married another Linger, Mrs. Tai would have something to say, but Mrs. Tai just frowned slightly, "It's the Meng family again?" But she didn't have much objection, she just said, "Your Girlfriend, you two can figure it out."

As for Mrs. Wang, she smiled and nodded vigorously, "This boy from the Meng family is a good one. As long as the child is good, it is important that our daughter can get along well after marriage. The rest are trivial matters." With a hostile face, I heard that he had a bad temper since he was a child, and he would ignore his own father, well, that's the best.With such a man, there is no good life.

If it's a big family, it's better to have father and brother to restrain them.However, this one lives in a single family, and the boy of the Meng family is the head of the family. Zhong Ling will be able to bear it in the future.

Mrs. Wang is very satisfied with this.Aunt Rui can coax a man charmingly, let's see if the little girl Zhong Ling has the ability to coax the bad-tempered boy of the Meng family.

Mrs. Tai saw that her son and daughter-in-law were very happy, and she was also happy to see the success, "That's it. As long as the children live comfortably, that's fine."

Zhong Yuan even agreed in front of Mrs. Tai, "How about Dr. Yu as a matchmaker?" Mrs. Tai nodded.

Aunt Rui thought that Zhong Ling had been settled for life, she was very happy, hooked Zhong Yuan's neck, kissed him on the face and neck again, Zhong Yuan laughed, "I still have a lot of private houses, all of which are given to Linger as a dowry !"

Aunt Rui's kisses rained down on him.Zhong Yuan turned over and pressed Aunt Rui under him, and asked slowly, "Is Linger still treating me so well after she gets married?"

he knows!He knows it all!Aunt Rui burst into tears, and said in a hoarse voice, "If Master Hou doesn't think I'm old, I will serve Master Hou for the rest of my life!"

"Don't mention whether it's a lifetime or not," Zhong Yuan said with a smile, "I'll take care of my master tonight before we talk about it."

Women are really annoying, always mentioning it for a lifetime.

The two had a good night.The next day, Aunt Rui was shocked to see that Zhong Ling started to learn how to make shoes.

"Brother Yu said," Zhong Ling blushed and said with a heartbeat, "Auntie is kind-hearted, good-looking, and good at sewing. He likes Auntie like that. I, I want to learn from Auntie."

She has only met him twice, and she is so fascinated!Aunt Rui rubbed her forehead, is this her own daughter, there is no resemblance at all.It doesn't matter if you are not smart and capable, it is so easy to fall in love.

I wanted to teach my daughter a few words, but after thinking about it again, it was wrong.What is my identity, and what is my daughter's identity, she will be the rightful wife in the future, and she is attached to her husband, what's wrong?

"I must make a pair of shoes for my aunt." Zhong Ling muttered softly.

"Your aunt won't care about this." Aunt Rui said lazily as she leaned on the imperial concubine's couch.

"Brother Yu will care." Zhong Ling was very stubborn, "Brother Yu said, Auntie really loves him, and we will honor Auntie in the future."

have to!Daring to raise this girl is for my sister!Aunt Rui stared at Zhong Ling for a while, then turned around and went out to arrange the dowry for Zhong Ling.

Although there are still two years to go before leaving the cabinet, the dowry has to be prepared early.The two children lived alone in their own household, and she had to give her more to be at ease.

While tossing about the dowry, Aunt Rui was still thinking: Why did my sister say that she didn't care about marrying a daughter?Why do I feel that marrying a daughter has so many things to do?

Different people have different fates.Can not help but be convinced.My elder sister has been timid, clumsy and cowardly since she was a child, but there is a man who is at ease, a daughter who is at ease, and she doesn't have to worry about anything.

Compared with men, it is incomparable.It's not bad to be like Zhong Yuan, but it's still far away from peace of mind.It's even more incomparable than a girl, what others want is peace of mind, for me, Aunt Rui looks at Zhong Ling with a childish face, just wait to worry about her for the rest of her life.

Huang Rui didn't know, in fact, Huang Xin didn't worry about anything, she didn't care about anything, at this moment, she was sneaking out of the house to go out on a date.

As an excuse, I still went to the Niangniang Temple to offer incense; in fact, I didn't go to the temple at all, and went directly to a small courtyard with a beautiful scenery at the entrance of the alley.

"This rose blooms really well, as beautiful as you." Meng Lai picked off a red rose and stuck it between Huang Xin's hair.

After examining it carefully, he sighed, "I was wrong, this rose is not half as beautiful as yours."

Meng Lai's eyes were very gentle, Huang Xin seemed to be melted, leaning softly in his arms.

"Aren't master going to the yamen?" Huang Xin murmured.The two hugged each other, unwilling to separate for a long time.

"No," Meng Lai hugged Huang Xin tightly again, "the yamen is fine."

"Then, come back tomorrow, okay?" Huang Xin begged.

"Miss me?" Meng Lai chuckled.

"I think about it." Huang Xin admitted honestly, "I think about it every day, every night."

Meng Lai froze, and then hugged Huang Xin tightly, "I have something to do tomorrow, so I'll come back later."

"What's the matter?" Huang Xin pouted dissatisfiedly.

Meng Lai smiled and said, "I want to train my daughter and my son-in-law." Huang Xin was startled, "What's wrong with you?"

Meng Lai leaned over and kissed her, "It's not Ayou, it's Yan'er."

Huang Xin felt relieved, smiled at Mimi and said, "Master, don't be too fierce, don't scare the third girl."

Meng Lai smiled, "This time you must be fierce, this silly boy, you can't do without scolding."

Huang Xin didn't understand, and didn't ask, she just snuggled into Meng Lai's arms obediently.It wasn't until it was getting late that the two reluctantly parted.

In the afternoon of the next day, when Meng Lai returned home, Yan Ran and Second Young Master Lu had been courteous for a long time.

"Yan'er, kneel down!" Meng Lai sternly shouted after entering the study and dismissing the servants.

Yan Ran knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed repeatedly, "Daddy, my daughter knows her mistake."

Second Young Master Lu was very puzzled, if it was about his own family affairs, his father-in-law should be blaming himself, why would he blame Yanran?Seeing Meng Lai's stern words, Yan Ran was so frightened that she couldn't bear it, she knelt down with her wife, kowtowed and said, "Father-in-law, calm down."

"My good son-in-law, please get up, I don't do your business." Meng Lai said coldly.

His tone was so cold that he could freeze, Second Young Master Lu didn't dare to get up.

Meng Lai snorted and ignored him.He asked Yanran sharply, "Yan'er, where did you go wrong?"

Yan Ran said tremblingly, "My daughter shouldn't be jealous!"

"Stupid!" Meng Lai yelled, pointing at Yanran resentfully, is there any more stupid child than her? "I only know the small things, but not the big things!"

"The Fang family's mother and daughter are distant relatives of your Lu family. They are innocent people. Even if they are in ruins, are they willing to let their daughter be young? It's just because of the need to make ends meet. Since you are relatives, you should step forward and find a good marriage for her. , It’s just a dowry to accompany you! How did I teach you on weekdays, to save a dowry and make a girl from an innocent family look younger!” Meng Lai scolded his daughter heartily, as the son-in-law, Lu Ergong But his face was ashen.

"The two families have a marriage contract." Second Young Master Lu said with difficulty.

"Is there a marriage letter? A matchmaker? An appointment?" Meng Lai asked coldly, but the second son of Lu fell to the ground and dared not speak.

It was just a joke from the old man back then, "If I have a daughter in the future, I will marry your son!"

What kind of engagement is this.

If the Lu family really had an engagement, but the three brothers were all married, what kind of family would the Lu family be?

"The dowry that your parents gave you back then was enough for you to last a lifetime." Meng Lai's tone softened, "It's just a part of it to donate to a poor woman, so what? My son thinks about it, money is just something outside of us. "

Yan Ran finally understood at this moment, bowed her head respectfully and said, "Yes! Daughter remembers Daddy's teaching! Go home and start to do it. I must marry Fang's cousin Feng Fengfeng Feng!"

No matter how stupid she was, she knew at this moment, how could the Lu family let her pay for this dowry, her father was just letting her put it on.

The most important thing is to let the cousin of the Fang family get married quickly.Keeping such a young girl at home is not good for other girls.

Meng Lai saw that his daughter had finally regained consciousness, and he was pleased to order her to step back first, but left Second Young Master Lu behind.

The second son of Lu murmured, "Father and mother also think about their children."

How could Lu Shangshu and his wife not think of things that Meng Lai could think of.But unwilling.He even wanted to have such a girl to come to Lu Er.

"My father ordered the hall, but are you dissatisfied with my Yan'er?" Meng Lai asked directly.

"No, no," Second Young Master Lu hurriedly argued, "Yan Ran is the second daughter-in-law, and she doesn't have to be too capable, she just needs to be docile..." At this point, Second Young Master Lu's voice gradually lowered, and Yan Ran was not submissive enough.

Like herself, she can only recite poems and compose fu, arty, and is not willing to obey her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.

"My Yan'er is 20 years old this year," Meng Lai said with a hint of sadness in her voice, "She still has decades to live, son-in-law, you still have to live with her for decades."

Second Young Master Lu answered in a low voice, "Yes."

"She has bad things, my virtuous son-in-law should teach her slowly, but you must remember that you and her will live a lifetime!" Meng Lai's voice became more and more relaxed, and his tone became more and more cordial.

The Second Young Master Lu respectfully agreed, thinking that the matter should come to an end here.But not yet, Meng Lai then took another test on his homework, which made him sweat all over.

"It's been a long time since I did this." Meng Lai laughed, "When my fifth little girl was young, I used to judge her with these things, just to amuse the little girl."

"Fifth Sister, do you know this?" Second Young Master Lu asked stupidly.

"My daughter knows these things by heart!" Meng Lai replied calmly.

Second Young Master Lu was sweating.My sister-in-law can recite it backwards, but my father-in-law thinks he is stupid.Parents don't think they have no fame, but father-in-law?

"The virtuous son-in-law just mentioned heirs," Meng Lai said gently, "If the two of you have a child, which one is better for the child to learn from?"

Second Young Master Lu came out of the study covered in sweat.Yan Ran was still waiting outside the door, she hurried up to meet her, with a worried expression on her face, "What did Dad say?"

The Second Young Master Lu said, "Nothing, nothing."

Yanran took out a handkerchief to wipe her husband's sweat, and complained in her heart, her father is also true, why force him so much?

After all, Yanran has learned to be smart. After returning to Lu's house, she said some high-sounding words, which made Lu Shangshu nod her head and Madam Lu was speechless.

Lu Shangshu turned his head and smiled at his wife, "The child is right, as it should be."

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "Although the second family is young, they are very considerate." Going back to her mother's house once, she becomes smarter.

Yan Ran said respectfully, "Daughter-in-law is not sensible, please teach mother-in-law more."

Mrs. Lu saw that she was submissive, so she just smiled and let it go. She can be like this every day, so why bother to get a second wife, it will make the Lu family restless.

After his son and daughter-in-law retired, Lu Shangshu complained to his wife, "I told you earlier, the Meng family will never agree. Look, it really is like this."

Mrs. Lu didn't take it seriously, "If the second child is sensible, you will take it as my pleasure. The Meng family should teach their daughter again."

"I think the daughters of the Meng family are pretty good. How about Marquis Ping Bei? Can the empress dowager, the emperor, and the eldest princess fall in love?" Lu Shangshu has a good temper and doesn't want to offend anyone.

"Those two are really good." Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "They are both generous. Only the second one from our family is a bit pretentious."

"Forget it, how good is the second daughter-in-law." Lu Shangshu was very contented, "Our second son is a perfect match with the second son's family."

"I see, my son is better," Mrs. Lu teased her husband, and the matter was over.

"The wedding of the sixth girl from the Meng family is coming soon, where shall we go for a wedding banquet?" The couple discussed and decided that Lu Shangshu would go to the princess mansion and Mrs. Lu would go to the Meng family.

Funing Princess Mansion.

Princess Funing held a long dowry list in her hand and teased her son, "Xiao Lei is rich now, and married a wife with a generous dowry."

"It's a long story, but we have to start with Fan Zhongyan." Ren Lei deliberately made his mother happy, "After Fan Gong developed, all the clansmen who couldn't afford to go to school or marry a wife would all be subsidized by him. ; When marrying a daughter, the dowry is several times more than the dowry, saying: My daughter will not be raised by her husband's family for the rest of her life!"

Princess Funing listened happily.

"Father-in-law and mother-in-law gave so many escorts, just to tell me: I don't need you to take care of my daughter! Don't treat her badly! A heart of love for daughters." Seeing Princess Funing happy, Ren Lei talked more and more vigorously.

"My son seems to be more learned than before." Princess Funing said suddenly.

People who have loved to dance with guns and clubs since childhood know even this kind of allusion.

"This, brother-in-law told me; no, brother Jin told me." Ren Lei blushed and stammered.

Unable to bear Princess Funing's playful eyes, Ren Lei sat for a while and fled in despair.

Son, I have become so familiar with the Yue family so quickly.Princess Funing was both relieved and sad.

I'm going to marry a wife, I'm an adult.Being so attached to his son, he has to leave himself and live with another woman.Is it a happy event to marry a daughter-in-law? Is it a happy event?
