Reborn Daughter Bad

Chapter 78

Even though they have been married for many years, the number of times they have been intimate with Huo Shoucheng can be counted on the fingers of the fingers.Although Shen Muqiu already has a son and a daughter, she still felt shy when she heard the old lady speak so bluntly, and said in a low voice: "What the mother said is that the daughter-in-law is also working hard to take care of her body now, in order to be able to do her best for her husband." .”

"It's the best if you can think like this." The old lady said it somewhat embarrassingly.

The daughter-in-law is the daughter of the eldest princess, the well-known Princess Mu, who has a noble status, and the emperor personally bestowed the marriage on her, adding much honor to the general's mansion.

But at the same time as the glory, it also brings great pressure.If the daughter-in-law is just an ordinary official daughter who has been sick for many years and cannot serve her husband, as a mother-in-law, she can give her son a bunch of maids and concubines at any time, so that the son does not have to suffer from years of cold bed, and can add more children to the family , kill two birds with one stone.

But precisely because of the nobleness of the daughter-in-law, the matter of adding a concubine can only be imagined.After all, behind her, there are the eldest princess and the emperor.If it offends her, the superior will blame her, and the unlucky son will be the one.

Because of this, the old lady held back for more than ten years, but she couldn't open her mouth.Seeing that Shen Muqiu's body is getting better now, the big stone in his heart has gradually come down.

Shen Muqiu married into the general's mansion, so she knew this mother-in-law's temperament, and she was always amiable, not because she liked her daughter-in-law too much, but because she was concerned about her identity, so she just maintained her superficial harmony.

So even though I was aware of it, I pretended not to know it.Regardless of whether this kindness is true or not, everyone is after the same man after all.You don't have to worry too much if you can have a peaceful and happy family and peace.

So he responded respectfully, that gentle attitude was quite in line with the old lady's wishes.

After chatting for a while, the old lady raised her eyes to look at the hourglass on the table, frowned and said, "Mu Qiu, it's late, why hasn't Shoucheng come back yet? Does he always come back so late recently?"

If the son sees the beginning and the end like this every day, no matter how good the daughter-in-law is, it will be difficult to conceive.

Shen Muqiu explained for her husband: "If you go back to your mother, envoys from foreign countries came to court recently. As a general protecting the country, your husband not only has to accompany him personally, but also protects the safety of the emperor and the people, so he has to be busy. After a while Day, when the envoys from foreign countries return, they will be able to relax for a few more days.”

"So that's how it is." The old lady suddenly realized, and said earnestly: "Shoucheng is a great general who protects the country and shoulders the heavy responsibility of defending the country and the people. It is really not easy. Mu Qiu, as his wife, you must be more considerate."

"Mother, my daughter-in-law understands." Even if the old lady didn't say these words, Shen Muqiu would know them.Such an accommodating response was nothing more than a matter of taking care of the old lady's face.

It's just a little strange in my heart, according to the old lady's temperament, after lighting the lights at night, she seldom leaves the yard, let alone come here to see her specially.After going around for a long time, it is impossible to simply ask her if she is in good health, whether the husband and wife are in harmony, right?
Just thinking about it, the old lady changed the subject and said with a smile: "You have been in poor health for a few years, and it is inconvenient to walk around, and the two girls in the family have not had much interpersonal relationship. Now that your health is getting better, you should go out for a walk more. This way the life will not be too boring. Also in the palace, you haven’t visited for many years, if you have time, you should also visit the nobles.”

Shen Muqiu's heart moved, but he could hear some taste from these words, and said with a smile: "Mother is right, the emperor is tolerant, and knowing that his daughter-in-law is unwell, he specially exempts her from paying pilgrimage every year. The emperor's grace is great, As a courtier, one cannot be proud of being favored. My daughter-in-law was thinking about whether she would go to the palace to meet some empresses in a few days, so the mother reminded her first."

The old lady's eyes lit up, and her smile became more amiable, "By the way, I still remember that you once said that before the imperial concubine entered the palace, she and you were close friends in the boudoir. Over the years, the imperial concubine has also sent you to our house. There are a lot of medicinal materials and supplements, after you enter the palace, you have to thank your mother well."

Shen Muqiu raised his eyebrows slightly. Among the concubines in the harem, Concubine Hua was not the only one who had a good relationship with her, Concubine Ru also had a lot of concern and greetings, why didn't the old lady mention it?

Could it be that the old lady's coming this time was the idea of ​​the imperial concubine?

There shouldn't be any intersection between the inside and outside of the palace. The old lady specifically mentioned it, so what's the point?

With a question mark quietly in her heart, she said calmly: "What mother said is very true. The imperial concubine naturally wants to write it. The concubine Ru is very caring for her daughter-in-law, so don't take it lightly. When she turns around, the daughter-in-law will arrange for Suxin and Suluo to prepare her." It is a great gift to enter the palace personally to thank the two empresses for their care over the years."

The old lady was a little dumb, the clever daughter-in-law didn't understand what she said, did she really not think about it, or did it on purpose?

Ever since Shen Muqiu married, she has always followed the rules and has never disobeyed the elders. The old lady thought about it for a while, and felt that her words were too tactful, so she simply pointed out: "If I remember correctly, the Ninth Prince seems to be in harmony with the heavens. Bei is the same age. Mu Qiu, since you have a strong relationship with the imperial concubine, you might as well inquire if the imperial concubine is interested in being a daughter of a thousand gold."

"Mother means..."

Having said that, the old lady stopped hiding and said cheerfully: "Today, an eminent monk came to our mansion for alms, and by the way, he showed the two girls in the family, and said that both girls have Dagui's fate. Xin'er is young, let's not mention marriage, but Yu'er is sixteen, marriage should be on the agenda."

Shen Muqiu, who was always submissive and gentle, was silent for a long time after hearing these words.

The old lady waited for a long time but did not get her response. She thought that she was not sure about Huo Tianyu's intentions, and it was not convenient for her to decide her marriage, so she smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about Yu'er, look at what that girl means, it's also right." The Ninth Prince is interested, otherwise the old man will not come here at night, so I will tell you about it. Although Yu'er is closer to that Shen family, you are her mother. Parents are the masters of marriage. It's best for you to speak up."

As everyone knows, at this moment, Shen Muqiu's heart is full of mixed feelings and helplessness.

Shen Ruoqiu coveted her husband and would do anything for it, so that's all.Now, is it the husband who even Huo Tianyu covets Xin'er?

If they are real mother and daughter, they are exactly the same even in these aspects!

She didn't want to make her daughter's marriage contract public so soon, so as not to put pressure on her young heart.Now it seems that it is impossible to hide.

Shen Muqiu thought about it and said: "Mother doesn't know, it's not that the daughter-in-law doesn't want to make decisions for Yu'er, but that the Ninth Prince has already had a marriage contract."

"What?" The old lady was taken aback, feeling disappointed, and murmured: "The prince's engagement is a big deal, why has I never heard of it? Mu Qiu, do you know which lady is the future Nine Emperor Concubine?"

If the old lady hadn't mentioned that she intends to betroth Huo Tianyu to the Ninth Prince, then Shen Muqiu wouldn't care.But the old lady had something to say first, so she was a little hard to say, hesitated for a moment, and smiled bitterly: "The girl who has a marriage contract with the Ninth Prince is Xin'er."
