Phoenix Indus

Chapter 42

Besides, Liu Shi was kicked to the ground by Jin Yuyu, who pretended to be crazy while drunk, which made her completely chilled, and she cried and cursed loudly in the inner room without reason.The louder and louder noise attracted the masters and servants in the courtyard to stand around and watch the bustle of the study.

The three concubines sent maids out one after another to inquire, wanting to see Liu's jokes, so they stood together peacefully, chatting gloatingly.The serving servants gathered in one place in groups of three or four, covering their mouths and chirping softly while listening to the crying and cursing coming from the study room.

In the end, Mother Zheng and Zilan couldn't bear it any longer, and bravely entered the study room, comforting and consoling them with soft words, so that the farce between their husband and wife ended again.

Mother Zheng asked Lu Zhu to drive the people back to their rooms to rest, and then helped Mrs. Liu back to the main room, and persuaded Mrs. Liu tearfully until midnight, before coaxing Mrs. Liu to sleep.Zilan coaxed Jin Yuyu to drink another bowl of hangover soup, and Fang softly persuaded him to sleep.

When he woke up the next morning, Jin Yuyu lay on the bed and thought for a long time, repeatedly recalling the disobedient words he said to Mr. Jin while borrowing wine last night, and the crying and scolding words of Liu Shi last night.The more I think about it, the more irritable I become, and the more I regret it, it's just that I suffer from the fact that there is no one to discuss.

After breakfast, seeing Zilan bring in ginseng soup for body repair, Jin Yuyu's heart was moved, and he hurriedly drove Lvzhu and the maids out, leaving Zilan alone.While drinking ginseng soup, he told her what happened last night, then frowned and asked: "In your opinion, is there still room for turning around now?"

Zi Lan sneered and said: "Now that we have reached this point, Master still wants to turn around? Even if Master wins back our Master's heart, it will be difficult for Grand Master. Since the position of heir is already in the pocket of Third Master Well, why don't you open a few private shops in private while you can still talk about business outside, and earn more money from your own house. As long as you have money in your hands, even if the third master Once you become a family, you don't have to look at your younger brother's face to live. If you really can't tolerate you anymore, at worst, we can move out to live. As long as we have a shop and money, we won't have to worry about food."

Zilan has always had a very strong mind, so Jin Yuyu will go over Liu's and discuss with her on many things.After listening to her suggestion now, I think it makes sense, and I also feel that I really found the right person to discuss with her.

Seeing the look on Jin Yuyu's face, Zi Lan knew that he was moved, so she continued to laugh and said, "You can also ask someone to go out and buy a Zhuangzi. Although you can't buy more Zhuangzi with your money, it should still be possible to buy a Zhuangzi. .As long as there is Zhuangzi as the foundation, even if things don’t go well in the future, you can rely on it for a few years.”

Jin Yuyu hugged Zilan into his arms, caressed her cheeks, and said with a smile: "Our Zilan girl is really smart, and in the future I will have a girl by my side, even if I leave this mansion , I’m not afraid. Just do what you said just now, and I’ll go to Yangzhuang tomorrow and talk to Yang’s father about handling the matter of Zhuangzi.”

After Zilan heard this, she hurriedly dissuaded her: "It's absolutely impossible. The plans we are making now are all small calculations in our hearts, and we must not reveal them, otherwise the master will suffer again from the grandfather and our master. According to me, this matter is known to the grandfather and I, even the grandma should not talk about it. Grandma is a timid person, if she tells our wife, these plans will be considered a waste of time, and the grandfather will still be scolded by the wife. The slaves and maidservants will also be kicked out. Why don't you send loyal servants out quietly, and set up all the shops and villages one by one, and find a loyal steward in private to work outside, and take care of all the people in the house. The masters kept it a secret. If there is nothing wrong in the future, I will just live happily in this mansion. Anyway, the third master will take care of the business. If there are hard-working people who make money for the master, you can just be happy. If in the future If something really happens, you don’t have to worry about it, we just need to move out of this mansion, we won’t starve to death.”

Jin Yuyu also knew that this matter could be done quietly without letting others know about it, but at first he never thought about keeping his wife and concubines a secret. Now that he heard Zilan's prescription, he felt that the less people knew about it, the safer it would be.

Afraid of talking too much, and let others listen, Jin Yuyu took Zilan into the inner room of the study, closed the door and window of the inner room, and the two of them lay down on the bed, put down the double-layered bed curtains , snuggling together and plotting.With the help of the Jin family, what kind of business can be done in private, how many shops need to be set up, how big is the Zhuangzi to buy, and who should be asked to go out to manage and organize.One by one, the two of them conspired until almost noon, and they were almost done talking.

At noon, Jin Yuyu took Zilan affectionately to eat at the same table with him, and asked the green bamboo who came in to wait on Zilan to serve her soup and vegetables.After dinner, Jin Yuyu asked Luzhu to take the maids to help him and Zilan wash and change clothes, then sent Luzhu and the maids away, and took Zilan into the inner room to rest.

This wealthy family takes a nap, just after lunch, taking advantage of the warmest time of the day, to take a nap to refresh their spirits.But Jin Yuyu took Zilan to rest together, the meaning of this is self-evident.As long as they are not fools, they can guess some of the lingering love affair between the two in Furong's tent.

It's just the meaning inside, but it's not just a lingering theory.Whether it's a family of officials or a family of merchants, in any wealthy family, there is no reason for wives and concubines to sleep in the study room.This bookcase is the host's wing room, where he lives during the day or sleeps alone at night.If they sleep with their wives or concubines, or they sleep with their wives and concubines, most of them are in the houses of their wives and concubines.

But this time, Jin Yuyu not only took Zilan to rest during the day, but also rested in the inner room of the study.There is no need to explain Jin Yuyu's love and respect for Zilan, the masters and servants of Fengyuan naturally know it well.

The red plums and green bamboos were better, but they were just a roommate, so they didn't dare to pick this reason, so they complained in their hearts that Zilan didn't understand the rules.But the wives and concubines in Fengyuan are naturally jealous, especially Liu Shi who was beaten by Jin Yuyu the night before, which can be said to be salt on the unhealed wound.You know, Liu's been married to Jin Yuyu for 11 years and gave birth to him a daughter and a son, but she never dared to sleep in the study room, even lying down to rest.

Mrs. Liu was so angry that she wished she could go to Mrs. Liu immediately and sue Jin Yuyu, but she was stopped by Nanny Zheng instead.

Madam Zheng hurriedly persuaded: "Grandma, this matter must not be made public. From Grandma's point of view, Zilan doesn't understand the rules, but if it gets out of the way, it's the absurd character of the master. Now we The old man is tired of the old man, and the great old man doesn't want to see the old man, and if such things are added, the future of the old man will be completely ruined."

Mrs. Liu sneered and said, "I can see him clearly now. The relationship between husband and wife is gone. Why do I care about his future? From now on, I will only watch over my sister and brother to live. What's up with the Lord, Don't ask any more questions. He can do whatever he wants. If the master really wants to kick him out, I will hold my sister and brother to beg the prince, and I will not go out with him."

After hearing this, Mother Zheng sighed bitterly, and persuaded with distress: "My mother is treating grandma like this now, and my mother-in-law feels distressed. Grandma ignores the affairs of my master, so she can live a quieter life. As long as there are sisters and brothers around, even if grandma is reliable in this life, there is nothing to be afraid of. It's just that grandma can't take Master's reputation too seriously. You must know that both sisters and brothers belong to the master. For the first-line children, if the father's reputation is bad, the sister and brother will also be implicated. Even for the fate of the sister and the future of the brother, the grandma has to care about the face of the master. I can't bear it , you have to grit your teeth and endure."

After pondering for a while, Mrs. Liu felt more and more that Madam Zheng's words were justified, and hated Jin Yuyu's worthlessness more and more, dragging down her children to suffer along with it.

Mrs. Liu asked Madam Zheng to give orders everywhere, telling everyone in Fengyuan to shut up, and not to spread the news about Jin Yuyu and Zilan taking a rest in the study to the Fengyuan.If this matter is spread, it will be severely investigated and punished severely. If no one can be found out, everyone in the Fengyuan Academy will be punished together.

What the Liu family did surprised everyone in Quanfengyuan.Everyone originally guessed that Mrs. Liu would be furious and jealous because of this incident, and then go to Jin Yuyu to make another fight, or go to Mrs. Liu to cry.In short, this matter must be made a big deal, and Jin Yuyu will be reprimanded or punished by the family law, which will not relieve the hatred in his heart.She never expected that Liu Shi didn't make a fuss, and even took the initiative to help Jin Yuyu cover it up.It's just that surprise is surprise, puzzlement is puzzlement, and the grandmother in charge has made a statement, and there is a joint crime, so everyone naturally controls their tongues and dare not gossip everywhere.

Besides, Jun Xueqi got up after a break, and went to Shuangyuan to pay her respects to Mrs. Su. By the way, she mentioned that Jin Taijun intended to give Shen Xinyue to Jin Yuwen as a concubine, and asked Mrs. Su what she meant.

Mrs. Su had always disliked Deng Shi, and felt that she was not a peaceful person. Although she was considerate in taking care of Jin Yuwen on weekdays, she was not thorough in everything.Besides, Jin Yuwen's health is not good, so having one more person to wait by his side will naturally make him feel more comfortable.It was Jin Taijun's intention again, and she was not the mother of a direct relative, so naturally she had no reason to reject it, she nodded in agreement with a smile, praised Shen Xinyue a lot, and sighed Jin Taijun's good eyesight.

Jun Xueqi had already discussed with Jin Yuxuan, and since Madam Su also nodded, she no longer hesitated.The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to the Buddhist temple together, first to pay respects to Jin Taijun, and second, to agree to Shen Xinyue's marriage, and to discuss with Jin Taijun about the auspicious day of marriage and the things needed for marriage and marriage.

Jin Taijun is naturally happy that the person he wants is coming, and his love for Jun Xueqi has deepened a bit.To Mrs. Su, she repeatedly praised Jun Xueqi a lot, and praised her for teaching/teaching Shen Xinyue very well, which made Mrs. Su's face full of brilliance.

This happy event always pays attention to striking while the iron is hot, besides, the fourth master Jin Yufei Chunwei has won the tribute and is preparing for the palace examination in April. Jin Taijun also wants to celebrate Jin Yufei's matter by giving Jin Yuwen a concubine.

Jin Yuwen was always taken care of by Shen Xinyue during her illness, and she had a very good impression of her.If you say you haven't been moved, it's a fake nobility, but because she is Jun Xueqi's maid, you don't dare to have other thoughts.Now that Jin Taijun is in charge, Mrs. Su, Jin Yuxuan, and Jun Xueqi all nodded again, so he is naturally happy to marry a beautiful lady.

After Mrs. Deng knew about Shen Xinyue, she regretted the move, which gave her the opportunity to get close to Jin Yuwen and seduce the men.He even hated Lan Yu who stayed behind to serve Jin Yuwen for not living up to expectations. It was fine for not taking good care of Jin Yuwen, and let Shen Xinyue take over.It's just that there were Jin Taijun and Mrs. Su, Deng did not dare to say that she would not let Shen Xinyue in, so she had to hide in the room and cursed to vent her jealousy.He also beat Lan Yu severely, scolding her for being incompetent, not being able to tie Jin Yuwen down, and not keeping Shen Xinyue in check.

Lan Yu felt extremely wronged in her heart, how could she take care of this person whom Taijun Jin loved?Besides, Jin Yuwen was very ill at that time, she was busy taking care of him day and night, so how could she have any free time to think about these things?Besides, in her opinion, Shen Xinyue is very sensible and responsible, and she didn't intend to take the opportunity to seduce Jin Yuwen.

Therefore, in an atmosphere of joy and sorrow in several families, Jin Yuwen was ordered by Jin Taijun to accept Shen Xinyue, the only daughter of Jun Xueqi's nanny Shen Nai, as a concubine.From then on, in the courtyard of the second wife's eldest son, there was an additional Aunt Shen, who was loved and cared for by Jin Yuwen.
