Rather be a concubine

Chapter 108
Although the Bo Mansion lost face at the moment, it did not become chaotic after all.The unfilial son of Bo Qingcheng, because the old lady was completely disappointed in him, so she never stopped Bo Zheng, and when Bo Rao and her son Zhen Ling returned to Taiyuan County, she took away the tied-up Bo Qingcheng. .

After Bo Qingcheng left, the Bo manor really lived in peace. After all, the whole mansion was reluctant to part with Bo Qingcheng, and Feng Shi was probably the only one.But now Feng Shi has lost too much blood and hurt his waist, he can't get up from the bed at all, even if he resists, he is powerless, so he can only watch Bao Qingcheng being taken away by this bitch, Bo Rao.

Feng Shi has long been aware of the dirty things that Bo Zheng and Bo Rao have seen. Apart from hating Bo Zheng, a shameless lover, she also hates Bo Rao, a disgusting low-spirited hoof.Therefore, as the biological mother of Bo Zheng and Bo Rao, the old lady naturally made Feng Shi bear a grudge.The unique taste that the old lady added to her meal earlier was made by Feng Shi.However, the old lady discovered the clue a few days ago, and dealt with Nanny He, which made Feng's heart terrified, and then she never dared to take action again, even if she hated her deeply, she could only endure it.

In a blink of an eye, time flies like a white horse, and seven years have passed in a flash.

Now the Bo mansion is also bustling, after all, the little lady who was originally not very old has already reached the age of Jiji.Although the Bo family is not a noble family, it can still be called a noble family.Originally, the great master who had passed away was born in the army and was also a hero of the Daqian Dynasty.However, because the military merits are not enough to protect the family, even if they get a title of Marquis of Chengwei, it is not hereditary, and it will not benefit the family. Now it seems that it is not very useful.

However, because of Marquis Chengwei, even though the Bo family revealed the ignorant Bo Qingcheng, seven years have passed, and even Marquis Chengwei's only son, Bo Qingyuan, has become the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army. There are four, and now he is also a senior member of the fourth rank.It's a pity that Bo Qingyuan was determined to establish a career first and then a family. Even though the old lady was worried about his marriage, she still didn't choose a suitable girl's family.

Seeing that there is a similar one among the Bo family's children, maybe there will be another Chengwei Hou in this generation. Therefore, the marriage of the young lady of the Bo family has also been followed by many people.It is extremely rare to find such a beautiful and gentle lady like Bo Yurong.So right now, the threshold of the Bo family is almost broken by suitors.The so-called family has a hundred women, that's exactly what it is.

But Bo Yuqiao was not as lucky as Bo Yurong. Although she was also born in the second room, she was a concubine.Bo Zheng is also very up-to-date, although he is still a senior member of the second rank, but as the Minister of the Household Department, he is hundreds of times stronger than the Zhongshu Ling back then.Therefore, Bo Yuqiao's marriage was somewhat difficult.

After all, she is also a girl from the Bo family, and her father is the Minister of the Household Department. If she married lowly, she would have wronged Miss Qiao.But if Gao is married, there is absolutely no such thing as matching a concubine's daughter with a concubine's son.Now the old lady is really happy with sister Qiao, so she is really embarrassed.

Bo Yuqiao is not really a young lady waiting for a baby, so she is naturally aware that her marriage is difficult.The old lady now wholeheartedly hopes that she can marry into a poor family. Although she does not have the glory and wealth, she is still the head of the house. Compared with being the first wife of a concubine in a wealthy family, life is much simpler.

But in the heart of the old lady, she never had the idea of ​​letting Bo Yuqiao be a concubine. After all, although the girls in the Bo family are not as noble as the women of the aristocratic family, they are still the best. Concubine?Isn't that ruining yourself?

In fact, Bo Yuqiao has never wanted to live a life of husband and son. After all, whether you are a wife or a concubine, you will inevitably share a man with others. If you regard this man as a boss, then you can bear it. The words of a person who needs to spend a lifetime together are too disgusting.

And if she married into a small household in Pengmen, how would she avenge her aunt?Right now, Bo Zheng is the Minister of the Household Department, and Feng's is the wife of the Minister. If she, Bo Yuqiao, can't even be a respectful person, then there is no hope of revenge. How can she be willing?So now we can only delay some marriages, lest the old lady mess up the marriage.

At this moment, Bo Yuqiao was doing her makeup in front of the mirror.

A delicate figure appeared in the bronze mirror, with skin like creamy fat, hair like ink clouds, eyes like spots of ink, and lips like red vermilion.Right now, Bo Yuqiao is fetching the eyebrow pencil, to thicken the original soft willow eyebrows, and the tails of the eyebrows are slightly curved, making her look more gentle.Then paint a few times at the end of the eyes, it's the same way but with the same effect. Right now, Bo Yuqiao's makeup is extremely gentle, after all, such an appearance is the best way to please the elders.

The two maids, Huang Ying and Cui Fu, are not too young now, and Huang Ying's life is more and more delicate, but her temper is a bit pungent, as if she has settled down in a poor family, and she doesn't have the slightest temper to teach the little servant in Tsing Yi every day.But Cuifu is a little different, this maid was originally soft-tempered, but now she is Jiji's age, she still seems to be extremely gentle.

At this moment, Huangying brought the lotus root silk pipa skirt to go up, with a wishful pleated skirt underneath, her black hair finished in a bun, tied up with a red coral passion lotus hairpin.The red gold pearl pendant between the ears kept shaking, showing the owner's icy muscles and bones even more.

At this moment, Bo Yuqiao put on a light rouge on her lips. This kind of rouge was made by herself with fresh flower juice and high-quality powder.Bo Yuqiao didn't dare to use lead powder on her face, so the Xinglin Restaurant had already sold some cosmetic powder made from medicinal materials before, and now she, the shopkeeper of the Xinglin Restaurant, has the advantage of being close to the water.

"Is that appropriate?"

Looking at the little lady in the bronze mirror, Bo Yuqiao asked indifferently.

Hearing this, Huang Ying, who was waiting on the side, laughed and said.

"Miss, if this is still inappropriate, then where do you put the little lady next to you? Right now, you are really beautiful!"

The servant girl Huang Ying had such a clever mouth that Bo Yuqiao couldn't help shaking her head.To be honest, the appearance of her current shell is really good, with a bee waist and buttocks, a crisp breast and jade legs, coupled with that extremely bright face, if she is not a concubine, there must be more suitors. few.

"Just counting on you, a girl with a sweet mouth, as if you have been wiped with honey. When we go to the Shouwu Courtyard later, don't talk nonsense, and save Nurse Cen from teaching you!"

Bo Yuqiao cast a sidelong glance at Huang Ying, and smiled lightly.After packing up, Bo Yuqiao took Huang Ying and Sumo to the Shouwu Courtyard, leaving Cuifu to stay in Qiongzhi Pavilion.

When Bo Yuqiao arrived at the main hall of Shouwu Courtyard, he found that it was really lively inside.Bo Yurong, Bo Yuhe, and Bo Yuqiong were all in the main hall at the moment, and even Bo Yuyan, who was only nine years old, came here to join in the fun, it was really complete.

Greeting the old lady politely, Bo Yuqiao stood beside the old lady.Now seven years have passed, no matter how meticulously the old lady takes care of her hair, there are still silver threads on her temples, and the lines at the corners of her eyes cannot be hidden, making her look a little old.

At this moment in the Bo residence, the most favored ones are not the two sisters of Bo Yurong and Bo Yuhe, but Bo Yuqiao, the little lady of the concubine.The reason was because of Bo Yuqiao's care for the old lady every day, as well as the precious medicinal materials that he continuously brought from the Xinglin Pavilion.

"Sister Qiao is also here. Now that you sisters are complete, grandma will explain one thing first. You must not neglect."

Hearing this, Bo Yuqiao's face remained calm, showing an extremely gentle smile, but she was a little puzzled in her heart, wondering what the old lady was up to.

"Ah Feng's health is not good now, and you all know it well, so all the power to run the house has been handed over to your aunts. But at this time, each of you has reached the age of Ji, if you don't learn how to manage the house, If you marry into your husband's family that day, it will be very sad."

Hearing this, Bo Yurong on the side was so ashamed that her little face showed a tinge of crimson. Right now, she, the eldest lady of the Bo Mansion, has already made an appointment with her marriage three months ago, and she is waiting for September to marry into the Duke of Yasukuni's mansion. , became Mrs. Shizi.

Bo Yurong's marriage into the Duke Jing's mansion was considered a high marriage, but Bo Yurong's character, appearance, talent, learning and temperament were all excellent, so she was spotted by Mrs. Jingguo's wife at a glance, and hurriedly signed the letter of appointment.The son of Lord Jingguo is named Yuan Ji, and he is the only direct son of the Yuan family. He has only a younger sister who is about to marry Ji. He has not yet settled on a family, but it is rumored that he is favored by the royal family.

"Grandmother, are you going to let sister Rong learn to run the house?"

The person who opened the mouth was Bo Yuhe, and now this little lady is no longer as stable as before, probably because of the white jade Guanyin statue, so Bo Yuhe was afraid that she would be rejected by the old lady, so she tried to play tricks in front of the old lady every day, hoping to be able to The first bit of decency.

"It's not just letting Sister Rong run the house, you sisters, except for Sister Yan who is still young, the rest can't escape. Our Bo family has a lot of shops, but it can't stand the trouble. For the time being, each of you will be in charge of one shop first, and when you are more confident, then each of you will be in charge of five shops. When you get married in the future, the shop in charge of your subordinates will be the dowry, so don't be negligent."

Seeing the serious look of the old lady, the sisters knew that there was no room for discussion on this matter.They have never learned to be a housekeeper before, so what if they lose money by giving the shop to the housekeeper?Even though there were many thoughts in my mind, the few sisters still showed no abnormality on the surface. After all, no one dared to disobey the old lady's orders, so as not to annoy the old lady, then the life in the mansion would be unsatisfactory. It's better.

Bo Yurong and the others nodded respectfully, and the old lady was satisfied.Afterwards, the few of them rushed to Xingjianju together, preparing to take over the shop under their hands from Cheng's.
