Aristocratic Concubine

Chapter 35

Wanqing and Wanrong hurriedly bowed their heads in response, and only retreated after saluting.

As soon as Wanli followed Lin into the door, she threw herself into Lin's arms and cried loudly: "Mother, I don't want to marry that sick son, no."

Lin was startled, supported her face and asked, "What, what's wrong with you, what are you talking about?"

Wanli told Lin Shi what she heard in the garden and what the two girls had said. Lin Shi felt her hands and feet were cold and numb when she heard it, and sat on the chair wearily, without making a sound for a long time.

"Mother, you must return this marriage. My daughter is still young, so I don't want to be a widow after marrying. He... He heard that it was only a year or two ago. Maybe it was just for me to marry me to celebrate my happiness. Mother, how can you bear to..."

"But... this is a marriage between your father and Lord Jingning. The three matchmakers and the six hires have gone through, and the six ceremonies have also been followed by the three ceremonies. Now it is so easy to retire. Besides, you Father is a fifth-rank mansion, how dare he offend the Marquis mansion..." The Lin family is also confused, and after hearing Wanli's words, she just felt that a ladle of ice water was poured on her head, and even her bones felt cold.

"Then what should I do? Mother, you just have the heart to watch your daughter jump into the fire pit? Ninghua County is another stepmother. Look at her look. After her daughter goes, I'm afraid she will be killed in two years." It is so cured that there is not even a bone left, mother, I don't want to marry, don't marry a half-dead person, mother." Wanli cried sadly, and Lin's heart, which was wet with tears, crushed her liver and intestines. Shi pulled her into his arms and said with a choked voice, "My son, don't worry, don't worry, there must be a way to think about it."

Wanli rolled her eyes, and eagerly grabbed Lin's sleeve and said, "Mother, yes, you can let the third sister marry, oh, or let the second sister marry, anyway, she is sixteen, and she has not yet married." Looking for her husband’s family, she married, but Zheng’er Bajing’s eldest son’s first wife, with the background of her little mother, being a first wife is a blessing in her previous life, mother, let the second sister marry over, anyway, the Hou’s family To be happy, the Gu family just give a daughter to go there, it may not have to be a daughter, mother, I am your biological daughter."

"But..." Mrs. Lin frowned. Although Marquis Jingning is not considered a relative of the emperor, he is also a dignitary in the court. How could the son of the Marquis marry a concubine as his wife?In this way, what is the difference between repenting and repenting?

"Mother, wouldn't it be good if you recognized that the second sister is under your name? The two sisters were raised by you, and it would be fine to open the ancestral hall and register the genealogy." Wanli said hurriedly seeing Lin's looseness.

After hearing this, Lin slowly pushed Wanli away, stood up, paced in the room, and murmured: "Opening the ancestral hall...how can only Wanrong be included in the genealogy, the concubine can enter, the concubine should be more Don’t you? No, how can I let those two bastards share your elder brother’s family property and enter the genealogy, so I will send them to study in the family tree..."

Wanli cried again when she heard that, she knelt and crawled over to hold Lin Shi: "But mother, besides this, do you have any other solution? Now that you have performed the six rituals for three times, if you don't hurry up, I am afraid that your daughter's wedding date will be fixed soon." Come down, when the time comes, it will be too late for you to think about it."

Lin bit her lip with a dark face, looked sharply at the pair of orioles about to fly embroidered on the green gauze cabinet, and said fiercely: "Now there is only one way..." Before she finished speaking, she Hearing a muffled sound, Lin was startled, and raised his voice: "Who is outside?"

Hearing a cat meowing, Nanny Jin chased it out, came back and said, "Ma'am, it's a stray cat."

When Wanqing returned to the house, Mother Fang hurriedly untied her cloak, asked Mai Dong to make a cup of tea, and asked: "Compared with ours, the Hou's Mansion is probably much more magnificent. Third Miss is here today." It’s an eye-opener, too.”

Wanqing took a sip of tea, looked up at Mother Fang earnestly, and told Mother Fang all the things she saw in the Hou's mansion. Mother Fang smiled when she heard it, and took a handkerchief to try Wanqing's mouth : "In this way, Mrs. Shouchang really likes the lady, and the son is not a fool. Miss, if you can enter the earl's mansion as the wife of the son, you will have come through all hardships. I don't know if the lady has agreed to this marriage?"

Wanqing shook her head preoccupied, but, as expected, Mrs. Lin would agree to this marriage.But, this is not what she wants.

Not long after, Bicao, who had gone out with Wanqing, came back. Wanqing knew that Lin would punish herself and Wanrong when she came back, so she asked Bicao to inquire about the news first.

"Miss San refused to marry, and she cried fiercely in front of the wife, saying that she wanted Miss Er to marry her... The slave also heard the wife say that the ancestral hall cannot be opened. Both of them have to go to the genealogy, and the uncle's family property will be divided, and the second and third masters will be justifiably listed on the family tree..."

Wanqing was startled when she heard that, she stood up abruptly from her chair, grabbed Bi Cao's hand and said, "Did you really hear clearly, is that what your wife said?"

Bi Cao was scratched by her and her hands hurt, she frowned and said: "The servant is hiding behind the magnolia tree by the window in the west wing, and I can hear it very clearly."

Wanqing got up and left after listening, Fang's mother stopped behind and said: "What are you doing, silly lady, you can't help it, if you take the initiative to go, my wife can't wait for it... I would rather marry a useless person than a sick and weak one." Yes, a woman's life, if there is no man to rely on, how can she live."

Wanqing's nose was sore, her eyes were clouded with tears, and she said in a choked voice, "But the son of Uncle Shouchang is also a dude. If I pass, I won't have a good life. Why don't you marry someone who is sick and weak? If it goes well, then the two of us will live happily ever after. If not, I can at least be clean... Cun Xiaohe is almost eight years old. If he doesn't go to the genealogy and study, he will be wrong all his life How can I bear it..."

Fang's mother covered her mouth, looked into the outer room in panic, hugged Wanqing in her arms and said, "This servant knows that the young lady loves the second master, but you don't know how difficult the widow's life is, Hou In a family like the mansion, the daughter-in-law is definitely not allowed to remarry. A woman without a husband is like wearing a shackle and can no longer be free. You are still young and have decades to live. How can you survive, let alone, Princess Ninghua herself has a son. Once the eldest son dies, her son will definitely inherit the title. At that time, have you ever thought about marrying a second wife? Who cares about the life and death of a widow? If you die at home, I'm afraid no one will know about it."
