Concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion: Abandoned concubine is not easy to mess with

Chapter 40
"Auntie, something has happened, you have to relax, after all, life is still going on, isn't it?" Ganfu sat by the bed, looking at the third aunt who was leaning against the bed in a daze, feeling distressed in her heart .Seeing that the third aunt still didn't speak, she sighed softly, "Auntie, I'm going to Princess Mingyue's banquet in three days, does my auntie have anything to tell me?"

Only then did San Yiniang roll her eyes, "It's a good thing. Mama Song will help you choose clothes and hairstyles, and Mama Kang will teach you etiquette and rules! Remember, don't be too ostentatious!"

"Yes, Fuer remembered what Auntie said!" Ganfu looked at Third Aunt gratefully.She is so sad now, and she is still very serious about her own affairs. Although the few words just now are not many, they are all important points.Gan Lu asked the eldest lady to prepare clothes for her, and the eldest lady will definitely do something to make herself look ugly. With Song's mother in charge, there will be no problem.Although she often went to such occasions in her previous life, she is a girl from the countryside now, and she knows nothing about etiquette and rules. At least until now, the eldest lady has not sent anyone to teach her etiquette, which shows that the eldest lady will not send anyone. .If she made a fool of herself because she didn't understand etiquette and rules that day, she would never want to get involved in the noble circle again.

The last sentence is the most important, don't make it public.If it is an ordinary mother, she will definitely let her daughter make public as long as she can. It is best to let everyone know her talent and beauty, but San Yiniang really loves her, because at this kind of banquet, she is a little-known The little girl who is too ostentatious will only attract more jealousy and secret hatred. The conflict between women is the most terrifying. If she is too ostentatious, she will undoubtedly put herself in many dangers.

The third aunt treated each other so sincerely, which made Ganfu feel even more guilty, so after thinking about it for a while, she decided to speak out, "Auntie, Fu'er heard that Zixi has an antidote!"

Third Yiniang rolled her eyes, stared fixedly at Ganfu, and finally smiled slightly, "You don't need to comfort me, my mother has consulted several imperial physicians, and they all said that there is no cure for Zixi!" In the past few days, Mrs. Lin has searched almost all the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital, but the result is that there is no cure for the child's breath.

"No, it's true. Eating the fruit of Zixi will make people infertile for life, but the root of Zixi is exactly its antidote!" Ganfu originally didn't plan to tell San Yiniang about this, after all, San Yiniang really After having a child, she won't care so much about herself, and she needs San Yiniang's love, and it's everything. However, seeing San Yiniang's sincere eyes, her heart finally compromised.

"But all the imperial doctors said?" San Yiniang still didn't want to believe that this was true. The imperial physician was a leading figure in the medical field, and even the imperial physician said that there was no antidote. How could a little girl like Ganfu know?
"The reason why the imperial physicians said that there is no cure for this medicine is because each zixi is different, and only the root of the same zixi can detoxify the medicinal properties of the same zixi fruit!" The reason is that the antidote is hard to find.

"This?" Mother Song, who was standing aside, was also full of hope. After listening to Ganfu's words, the hope that had just been ignited suddenly dissipated. ?”

"Only find the person who gave the medicine!" Ganfu pointed out the key point of this matter. Since the same plant is needed, only the person who gave the medicine will have the antidote.

"Miss, do you mean to go to Da Furen?" Mother Song's eyes lit up with hope again, "But Da Furen won't give it!"

"Of course the eldest lady will not give it willingly, but what if there is something that can be exchanged?" Gan Fu fixed her eyes on Song Mama who was standing aside, and the corners of her lips twitched slightly, "Now that Gan Wei is disfigured, this is what the eldest lady cares about most. But if there is a medicine that can restore Gan Wei's appearance, I wonder if Da Furen will change it?"

"You have?" The third aunt also rekindled hope. Children are the pain of her life. What woman doesn't want to be a mother. Although she wanted to give up before, it was because there was no way, but now that she has hope, of course she Will not give up.

"Well, I have, but the time is not yet ripe, and the eldest lady will not compromise so easily, so Auntie, rest assured, when the time is right, Fu'er will help you get the antidote from the eldest lady!" Gan Fu held San Yiniang's hand and gave San Yiniang a reassuring look.Although San Yiniang might not give herself wholeheartedly after having a child, she is really not a cruel person. She can't stand by and watch innocent people like San Yiniang, especially those who treat her so well.Forget it, anyway, the purpose now is to take revenge, and when she gets her revenge, and then get the antidote for Third Yiniang, it will be considered as her gratitude to Third Yiniang.

"Well, good!" At this time, the third aunt was like a child, coaxed by Ganfu's words obediently.

"Then auntie, rest well, Fu'er goes to learn etiquette and rules from Kang's mother first!" Gan Fu stood up, helped third auntie to lie back on the bed, and then walked out of the room with Kang's mother and Song's mother.

Because of what happened just now, Mama Song and Mama Kang looked at Ganfu differently. If they said that they were respectful to her only because of San Yiniang's order, now they are grateful, so they are more kind to her.Both of them are old people from the Lin family, and they are as good at dressing and manners as their mothers in the palace.Just before the third aunt ordered "Yipintang" to prepare the custom-made clothes and jewelry for Ganfu. The two served Ganfu and tried several sets, and finally chose a lotus color double-breasted high-waisted dress and a pink pearl dress. Butterfly Beads Flowers.The style and color are very moderate, not overpowering, nor too dull, which not only shows the solemnity of Miss Ganfu, but also fits her young and lively temperament.

In the evening, Gan Lu came to San Yiniang's room, because Gan Fu's words in the afternoon made San Yiniang see hope again, and her attitude towards Gan Lu was much better.Seeing that the third aunt had finally stabilized, Gan Lu said a lot of nice words to the third aunt, and the two finally reconciled. That night, Gan Lu rested in Qinghui Garden.

On the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the three daughters of the Gan family all dressed up carefully, and then came to the front hall.Because today's matter is related to the reputation of Gan Mansion, Mrs. Gan purposely sat in the main hall early in the morning.

Because of the wound on Gan Wei's face, she covered her face with a veil, revealing only her relatively smooth forehead and a pair of bright eyes. The clothes and head are exquisite, and it can be seen that she spent a lot of money.Ganqin is not the most beautiful, but she has a gentle temperament. She is known as one of the "Four Beauties of the Capital". Naturally, she has her outstanding features, such as her superb piano skills. Known as the No. 13 piano art among noble girls in Beijing.Today, Ganqin is wearing an emerald green dress with a slanted breast and a high waist. The head and face should have been specially prepared for her by the second aunt. With her jet-black hair, there is only a red gold gem-studded bu Yao slanted on her temples. The earrings of the same style are unassuming. , just fit her temperament of a talented woman.

"Why are the clothes of the fifth girl and the sixth girl so plain?" Mrs. Gan frowned displeasedly, and glanced at the eldest lady. It must be the woman who did it secretly. Looking at Gan Wei's gorgeous clothes and jewelry , Looking at the clothes of Ganqin and Ganfu again, I feel angry.

Gan Wei has been ruined, even if the second prince does not withdraw the engagement, it is impossible for Gan Wei to get the favor of the second prince after marrying.Although Gan Qin is not the most beautiful, she has the reputation of a talented woman. It is still possible to be a side concubine for the prince.As for this Ganfu, she is only 13 years old, and she already has seven points of beauty in such a dress. I believe that in two years, she will definitely be a great beauty. Now with the guidance of the third aunt and the support of the Lin family, the son of the Ding Palace has made his attitude clear. It's just a matter of time and opportunity.If the daughters of the Gan family marry well, Gan Lu's official career will be smooth, and he will help Gan Qi more in the future. The prosperity and wealth of the Gan family will only flourish.

On such an important occasion today, Ganqin and Ganfu had to shine, but the eldest lady dared to disobey her order, clearly because she didn't want the two girls to show off.

"Old lady, I ordered someone to tailor-made a suit for Miss Fifth and Miss Six, but both of them like to be clean, so they didn't wear what I prepared for them!" Second Concubine and Third Concubine, hmph, deliberately made their daughters dress so shabby, wouldn't this make the old lady even more dissatisfied with her?

"Yes, old madam, you also know that Qin'er always likes plain things. The body that the eldest sister made for Qin'er is indeed extremely gorgeous, but it doesn't match Qin'er's refined temperament, so the concubine is her own." Make the decision to make a new body for Qin'er!" The second aunt's words sounded like she was trying to save the lady, but in fact she was complaining about the lady in a disguised form, knowing that Ganqin is a talented woman, of course a talented woman can't dress like an actor It seems that Ganqin made a fancy dress on purpose.

Sure enough, the old lady's complexion fell instantly when she heard this, so she looked at the third aunt, "Mei'er, you are also the head of the family now, and you should pay more attention to the children's affairs in the future. If someone dares to play tricks on you, you Just come and tell me!"

After hearing what the second aunt said, the eldest lady was about to refute, but the old lady said such a thing directly to the third aunt, she was so angry that she didn't dare to get angry.

"Yes, old lady, don't worry, Mei'er will definitely care more about the son and daughter in the family in the future. The elder sister has been exhausted because of Miss Si's affairs during this time, so it's understandable if she didn't think carefully, and now the servants in the family are too complicated, sometimes it's inevitable Obedience to the master's orders, embezzlement, or shoddy goods are all possible. Last time, the elder sister said that the servants in the family should be rectified, and now the Chinese New Year is about to come. After the New Year, my eldest sister and I will rectify together! "Since she knew that her infertility had something to do with the eldest lady, San Yiniang has been filled with resentment. She used to only focus on how to give birth to a son, but now she has to fight this vicious woman.

"Well, that's okay, there are indeed many servants in our family messing around outside under the banner of our family. Since the eldest daughter-in-law is not strong enough, then I will leave this matter to you!" Mrs. Gan couldn't see why The methods among these women are now almost all the Da Furen's people in the Gan family. San Yiniang did this because she wanted to establish her own power.These years, the eldest lady has monopolized the power, and her recent behavior has become more and more arrogant. With the third aunt fighting her, the family will be much quieter.

"Yes!" Third Aunt still had a gentle smile on her face, and blessed Mrs. Gan.

When the eldest lady heard this, she tightly held the hand hidden in her sleeve. The old lady was going to disperse the power in her hands, so that she had the final say in this family.Hmph, old witch, I'm getting old, and I still don't want to give up the power in my hand, and I still want to control the power of the Gan family.

The second concubine was very happy at this time. The eldest lady has monopolized the power all these years, and she has suppressed them to the utmost extent, and she is also superficially good to the concubine's children. The men are praised and killed, and the women are not allowed to be taught by their masters. Also never let concubine children participate in important occasions.In this family, everyone only knows that her son and daughter are excellent, and the other children are idiots.Hmph, if her qin'er hadn't been taught by her, she wouldn't have become the "Four Beauties of the Capital".

How the third aunt's child died back then was very clear to her, she heard that the third aunt seemed to know.Now it's all right, the third aunt and the eldest lady will definitely fight to the death, and she will just reap the benefits of the fisherman.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go, the three girls!" Mrs. Gan saw the dissatisfaction of the eldest lady, but ignored it at all. She glanced at the three granddaughters and lowered her eyelids in satisfaction.

The three of them headed towards Prince Xian's mansion each in a carriage.It is strange to say that King Xian, who has always kept a low profile, deliberately set the venue of the banquet in King Xian's mansion, which is another reason why so many noble ladies flock to it.King Xian has never married yet, so Princess Mingyue chose the mansion of King Xian this time, did she have another purpose?

There were eight guards and four maids standing at the gate of Prince Xian's mansion. Any lady who came could only bring one maid in with the invitation of Princess Mingyue.
