The lucky star of rebirth

Chapter 23
"Rongweihou Mansion?"

When Ji Songxian went to say hello to Mrs. Wu, he saw the invitation card Mrs. Wu was holding in his hand, and he yelled in surprise, his heart was infinitely excited: "Mother, is the Rongwei Hou Mansion familiar with our family?"

No wonder Ji Songxian was excited, since she left, she had never seen the old lady and the eldest wife of the Marquis of Rongwei. When she was unmarried, these two were the only people in the mansion who loved her, even though she is now I got used to Ji Songxian's life and treated myself as Ji Songxian, but after all I still have some concerns about these two relatives, and I want to see them again with my own eyes to know whether they are doing well or not.

"You child." Wu said with a smile: "Did you forget that when our family first entered Jinling City, you were still young, and you happened to meet the fourth master's family from the Rongwei Hou Mansion on the way, and you went with us when we settled down. Liao Niang took you to the Hou's Mansion to thank you. The old lady of the Hou's Mansion really likes you. Even Mrs. Feng, even the late lady surnamed Cheng, also fell in love with you, although she is a few years older than you. But I can also play with you, when you came back, you said you liked that sister Feng very much."

Ji Songxian was stunned, she searched hard, and finally found one thing in Feng Songxian's memory. At that time, Feng Songxian was fascinated by Cheng Ping'an's gradual display of talent, and other things were not very good. Don't worry, I just want to marry and be safe. One day when I came home to visit, she came out to see a very beautiful little girl. Feng Songxian liked it very much, so she took the little girl to play. For half a day, many things were given away, but she didn't even remember who the little girl was.

Now it happened to meet Mrs. Wu's words, Ji Songxian hurriedly asked: "Is there a pair of jade bracelets in my room that Sister Feng gave you?"

"That's right." Mrs. Wu smiled and nodded Ji Songxian's forehead: "That little lady Feng is a good one, not to mention gentle, and the most clean and kind. She only has bad eyesight. Married to such a thing, Life is terrible for people."

Ji Songxian bowed his head and said nothing, and Mrs. Wu hugged her into his arms: "Don't be sad, men never know how dangerous fighting in the backyard is, and they all dream of beautiful wives and concubines. Only when the sons and daughters you have caused are in endless disputes will you realize that you regret it."

Seeing that Ji Qingxian was a bit dull, Wu smiled and teased her again: "My mother called Shunyi to make the clothes for you, and you can put on new clothes when you go to Rongweihou's mansion tomorrow as a guest."

"I want to go too?" Ji Songxian asked in surprise.

"Look at what you said, where can mother go without taking you? Besides, the old lady of the Hou Mansion specially confessed to take you there." Mrs. Wu touched Ji Songxian's hand: "When we go to the Rongwei Hou Mansion, the weather It's getting hotter and hotter, so Mother will take you to our newly bought Zhuangzi to escape the heat."

"Yeah." Ji Songxian agreed, and asked Zuoliang Xunshunyi to get new clothes and bring them back to the room to try them on.

She was already good looking, but this time she was wearing the blue embroidered shirt, and underneath the light white gauze skirt dotted with large swaths of ink lotus, she was really extremely beautiful, standing there like a delicate flower that just bloomed in spring, It's like the warm wind in spring, slowly blowing into people's hearts.

"The girl is so pretty." After staring around the beam for a long while, she praised: "I have never seen anyone prettier than a girl."

Seeing her stupid look, Ji Songxian burst out laughing: "You have only seen a few beauties, and you said it as if you have read the world, silly girl, quickly help me change the clothes, this clothes are waiting for a guest Wear it, don't get wrinkled."

Rao Liang hurried over to help, the master and servant took off their clothes and put them away properly, Ji Songxian sent him out of Rao Liang, she rummaged through the box and finally found the pair of white jade bracelets, caressing the bracelets, Ji Songxian burst into tears , I can't help but cry.

After crying, she put away the bracelet and picked up the pen to draw, but she was distracted and didn't know what to draw, so she put it down, sat on the stool and thought about what to do when she went to Rongweihou's mansion tomorrow , because she also considered that Mrs. Song once told her that when Mrs. Song married Cheng Guogong earlier, the Song family was still rich, and Mrs. Song's dowry was really generous, which can be called red makeup.

Mrs. Song never liked Duke Cheng. After she got married, she didn't know what kind of temperament Mr. Cheng was, so many items in the dowry were not disclosed. After Mrs. Song saw clearly how indifferent and ruthless Mr. Cheng was. After being greedy and selfish, I didn't mention it anymore. When she was pregnant, she stole many small and precious things and hid them in the secret room of a house she bought.

There are also some family heirlooms of the Song family that were also hidden by the Song family. They were originally intended to be handed over to her son, but it is a pity that the Song family did not see Cheng Huaijin before he died. It won't be cheap to start a family, and naturally it won't reveal anything.

At that time, Ji Songxian had no expectations for the married people, so he helped the Song family to hide it. Now that Cheng Huaijin has returned, those things should be handed over to him, but Ji Songxian felt worried again. How to notify Cheng Huaijin.

Thinking of Song's dowry, Ji Songxian suddenly remembered another thing.

If it wasn't for the Song family, or Ji Songxian couldn't remember it.

It turned out that when she was Feng Songxian, her mother was of a very noble family. It is said that she was a county lord. When her mother passed away, she also left some good things for her, including a family heirloom. This matter is only her mother. The nanny knew that when she got married, the nanny secretly looked for her and gave her a box made of agarwood, saying that the things inside must not be known.

Feng Songxian only regarded it as a thought left to her by her mother, so she never mentioned it to anyone, and even Cheng Ping'an didn't know about it. Later, when she saw what the Song family did, she thought about putting the box in Zhuangzi or outside. In the house, only her dowry, Cheng Ping'an, is clear. If it was placed on the Zhuangzi, it would inevitably fall into Cheng Ping'an's hands, so he had no choice but to put the box into Song's house. It is only to get some back.

After thinking about it again and again, Ji Songxian gritted his teeth, thinking of a way to go to Song's house when he and Wu went to Zhuangzi in the suburbs, first take out her belongings, and then try to send a letter to Cheng Huaijin.

After making up his mind, Ji Songxian excitedly started looking for jewelry, and thought about what kind of bun he would wear tomorrow, in order to make a good impression on the old lady of the Rongwei Hou Mansion.

That night, Ji Songxian couldn't sleep because of tossing and turning. When it was dawn, he changed his clothes early, and asked Zhou Liang to comb her a lily bun, and found two new jewelry that Wu Shi had just made for her, and put them on.

Thinking of the old lady who lost her most beloved granddaughter, Ji Songxian didn't wear those brightly colored ones, but picked up two plain blue jade hairpins, and put white pearls on her hair. , looking plain, but not shabby.

After dressing up, Ji Songxian went to wait in Wu's house, and after the family had breakfast, Wu took her and Sun in a carriage to Rongweihou's mansion.

Ji Songxian didn't know what the old lady of Rongweihou was doing in such a sudden banquet, thinking that it was not a festival, nor was it someone's birthday in Rongweihou's mansion, so what was the purpose of inviting guests like this?
Waiting for the car to stop in front of the Rongweihou's Mansion, Ji Songxian, Wu Shi and Sun's got off the car, and saw many luxurious cars parked at the gate of the Rongweihou's Mansion, presumably there were already many guests here, feel free to post the post Send it, the people of Rongweihou Mansion hurriedly invited Mrs. Wu and his party to enter the door.

After entering the door and walking not far away, I saw Mrs. Jin, the eldest wife of the Marquis of Rongwei, coming out to greet her. She took Wu's hand with a smile on her face: "It's really hard to invite you. We didn't come even after we invited you many times earlier. This time I'm catching you, and I'll have to punish you with a few cups."

"It's really complicated at home." Wu Shi also entered the door with a smile on his face, and Jin Shi one after another.

The old lady of Rongwei Hou lived in the Jinxiang Courtyard in the side room since the death of Lord Hou. The group went to the Jinxiang Courtyard and entered the main hall.

The old lady looked a lot thinner, but she was still in good spirits. Ji Songxian sat next to Mrs. Wu, seeing the old lady's thin appearance, felt extremely sad, and really wanted to cry and throw herself into the old lady's arms to express her grievances , but now she is not from the Feng family, but the daughter of the Ji family. It is absolutely unacceptable to lose her composure, so she can only grit her teeth and endure it.

After talking a few words with Mrs. Wu, the old lady looked at Ji Songxian, and waved to Ji Songxian with a smile: "This is Sister Xian, she looks so great in a flash."

Ji Songxian hurried over to greet the old lady, and the old lady Rongwei Hou grabbed her hands and looked them up and down, the more she looked at her, the more she liked her: "She is a good child, it is difficult for her to grow up like this, she is not arrogant, and she has such a gentle and generous temperament, The more I look at it, the more I love it. Good boy, I will often come to the Hou Mansion to play when I have time. There are also a few girls in this mansion. Although they are not as good as you, they are not frivolous. I think you can play together. .”

"Yes." Ji Songxian replied: "I'm just afraid that my sisters will be displeased by my humbleness. If you don't mind, then I will not bother you more in the future."

"I don't mind, I don't mind." The old lady smiled and shook her head: "It's good that you are such a smart person, I can't bear it when I see you, if it wasn't for your mother sitting there, I'm afraid I'd snatch you away come."

Mrs. Jin also laughed at the side, and said to the old lady: "If you want to ask Sister Xian to serve you every day, it's okay. Brother Jing in our family is also getting old. If...you don't want to see Sister Xian when you want to see her?" It's a matter of one sentence."

When Ji Songxian heard this, his hand trembled.

The brother Jing mentioned by the Jin family is Feng Jing, the eldest grandson of Marquis Rongwei. Ji Songxian still remembers that she was the best friend with Feng Jing when she was not out of the cabinet. She is much older than Feng Jing. Feng Jing was almost brought up by her. Yes, now it's time to marry a wife.

She understood that the Jin family probably wanted to test it out, to see if he could get married to the Xiangfu.

However, it is true that her body is Ji Songxian, but her soul is clearly Feng Jing's aunt, so how can she marry her?
Mrs. Wu was also surprised, and then said with a smile: "Your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are trying to snatch my girl in broad daylight, but I don't agree with you. Both of you mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, I am also taking my daughter-in-law with me, so I am not afraid of you."

Mrs. Jin knew that this would be impossible, her eyes were a little silent, but then she smiled again: "I just like your girl, why can't you still eat me? Just wait, I will find another girl tomorrow." I'm so angry with you."

Ji Songxian felt relieved, and was very grateful to the Wu family for pushing this family. You know, even if she married anyone, she would never marry the Feng family, that would be simply incest.

I forgot to update yesterday, I'm really sorry, I'll make it up today.

In addition, some people say that Ji Songxian, as the concubine of the prime minister's mansion, cannot call her a concubine no matter how high her status is in the married family. If this statement is applied to ordinary people, it makes sense, but it makes no sense to apply it to the best of the married family. .

But we know that Cheng Pingan is a prostitute, and the books he read before crossing are all prostitutes. In the eyes of prostitutes, there is no distinction of status. In many prostitutes, if a prostitute marries several princesses, the princess will Can be a concubine, let alone a girl from the Xiangfu.

In addition, in ancient times, there were really daughters-in-law of Xiangfu who gave others as concubines. This is not impossible. There are many things about the ancients that cannot be explained. The ancient women she wrote were dignified and virtuous, she was too strict and harsh on herself, and she was even more ancient than the ancients. Feng asked many people, especially some very old people, and even the centenarians. It seems that the ancients did not The rules are as strict as everyone imagines, but when it comes to rules, there are no rules. If there are no rules, they are more open than modern people.
