I want my green plum to become a phoenix (rebirth)

It's not that Hui Niang doesn't like Wei Shi, it's just that with her vision and heart, she can happily accept this marriage, that's a strange thing.There is also the imperial concubine, who might make excuses... But as long as they are two sisters, as long as Qin Mengyuan is not forced to resist the order and refuse to marry, she has nothing to worry about.

The noble concubine and the Wei family seem to have high status on the surface, but when it comes to the imperial decree and the emperor's favor, they can't be anyone's master.

Hui Niang can see clearly, so although she knows Wei's attitude, she is not slow or slow. Every day, except for morning and evening, she embroiders some small things in her room-she has to hurry up and do more in the twelfth lunar month. Well, there is no need to sew during the first month. Once the first month is over, the palace will send a new round of nuns to teach her. At that time, it is almost a certainty that she will be busier and more tired than the last time. She wants to do something There are not many opportunities for my own embroidery work.

However, other people in the mansion were not so calm.

How does the Wei family think about Animiang's marriage? Although the conversation between her and Qin Mengyuan was not rumored at the time, she would still hide her thoughts in front of the juniors, but she was not so cautious in front of her confidants.Within a few days, Second Auntie saw what Wei Shi was thinking—she was originally the maid who married Wei Shi together, so it was not unusual to see what Wei Shi was thinking, so she turned around and told her two daughters, The original intention was to remind the daughters to be more careful, don't make Wei Shi unhappy these days, when the time comes to get troubled by Aniniang, instead of reminding Lingniang, she has other thoughts.

"Madam, the third girl is here."

This day, Wei Shi had just woken up from his afternoon nap, combed his hair and changed his clothes again, and was about to cheer up and talk to the housekeepers about the family affairs in the twelfth lunar month, but Shanzhi suddenly came to report that Lingniang had arrived before the housekeepers came.Wei Shi had always looked down on Lingniang in her heart, but she was her daughter's follower, and Second Concubine had been her confidant for many years. In order to win over Second Concubine, she couldn't treat Lingniang too slowly, so she had to bear the annoyance and let Shanzhi treat her Ling Niang brought them in.

"Mother." Lingniang saluted respectfully, flattered Wei Shi, and then said with a smile: "Mother, my daughter is here this time to help you solve your problems."

These words sound fresh, Wei's brows were raised, and there was a little disdain in his eyes, "You? How can you help me solve my problems?"

"Daughter..." Lingniang took a deep breath, "Daughter knows, mother has been worrying about the second sister's marriage recently, for fear that the second sister will complain and alienate our family after marrying the seventh prince, causing inconvenience to father's career. The daughter is here for this."

Originally, I just thought it was a little fresh, but I was overwhelmed when I said this.The disdain in Wei's eyes deepened, but she didn't directly reprimand Lingniang, and she didn't directly expose her high self-esteem—it didn't even occur to her to ask how Lingniang knew she was bothered by this matter.She just asked, "Then what can you do?"

Lingniang pursed her lips and smiled, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "Daughter thinks, if the second sister can marry the seventh prince, our family may not be able to have another daughter to marry another prince." She suddenly knelt on her knees. Kneeling down, "My daughter is willing to marry the third prince as a side concubine. If this happens, our family and the third prince will get closer, and the imperial concubine will definitely not be suspicious anymore! On the contrary..."

"On the contrary, in order to win over the master, the imperial concubine will instruct the third prince to dote on you twice? Huh!" Wei Shi couldn't bear it anymore, and sneered, "Who do you think you are? What is your status? No one has ever been an emperor's teacher. His grandfather didn’t have any identity as a descendant—the kind that crawled out of the maidservant’s stomach, and still wanted to marry the prince? It’s a big joke! You like Heng’er, although it’s a bit shameless, but it’s not intolerable. It’s just, Since you have such shameless thoughts, why don't you just be bolder and do something even more shameless? That will do what you want! If you don't have the courage, don't dream again in this life!"

After finishing speaking, without looking at Lingniang's face that suddenly froze, she raised her voice and called the servant girl, "Wu Mei, take the third girl to the wing room, let her kneel in the small Buddha hall, and reflect on herself!" I don't believe in gods and Buddhas, but in order to perfunctory the old lady and look filial, I also set up a small Buddhist hall in the wing room. I don't go in to read a single scripture for a year, and only let the maids clean it once every ten days and a half months. When the daughters made a mistake, let them go in and kneel down to reflect.

Lingniang was led out by Wu Mei's arm, Wei Shi leaned back, the more she thought about it, the more ridiculous she felt, "Tell me, how could she have such an idea? She's crazy!"

"What Madam said is that the third girl's idea is too groundless, how can our family put a side concubine for the third prince." Shan Zhi echoed from the side.

"That's not the case! Besides, the Cao family just gave birth to a son—although he was a step late and didn't have an 'eldest grandson', but he is also the eldest son of Heng'er. At this time, he sent someone to be the side concubine of Duke Huai for Cao What benefits can you gain by adding trouble? I am afraid that not only will it not be good, but it will also make an enemy for nothing. The master will definitely not agree to this."

"However, how could the third girl have such an idea?" Shan Zhi murmured to remind Wei, "You have never said anything bad about the second girl's marriage in public. It was handed to you in the letter. And Master... Why is the third girl so determined that our family has to marry the third prince again to calm the suspicion of the noble concubine?"

After being reminded like this, Wei finally came to his senses, "It's you who wakes up!" She never hesitated to praise her real confidants, "She would come up with such an idea, and come here to say something to share my worries." Solving the problem...it's really strange!" She lowered her head and pondered for a while, and then ordered: "Go and call the red silk, don't bring it in, just let her watch outside the wing, and let her wait for the master to come back. Master ask them about the two of them."

Hongxiao is the name of the second aunt when she was a maid in the Wei family. Shanzhi understands that the Wei family is already suspicious of the second aunt, so she doesn't want to smooth over the matter in private, and only waits for Qin Mengyuan to come back and let him discipline herself Aunt and daughter.

***

Originally, this matter was not spread to Wei's courtyard too quickly. Qin Mengyuan didn't want Qin Mengyuan to have a lot of business in the yamen today, and he didn't come back until dusk.When the girls and aunts went to the old lady's room to sleep in the morning and evening, they didn't see Lingniang and the second aunt, and when they looked at Yinniang's eyes swollen from crying, they all had some guesses in their hearts.

Everyone guessed that Lingniang must have made a mistake, and asked the maid to inquire about it in private——Wei didn't want to hide this matter, and even offered to mention it half-covered when Zhiniang asked about it. , "Your third sister has lost her mind for some reason, and she ran over to me and said: I want to give it to the third prince, so that because of your second sister's marriage, the imperial concubine and the third prince will not alienate our family—what a fool!"

Zhi Niang bit her lips and did not speak, and said to the servant girl coldly after leaving Wang's courtyard: "What kind of thing is she, how dare you think about marrying my cousin?"

After returning to her own room, she ordered the servant girl: "When the third sister comes to see Yuqiuer again, don't let her in! It was something my cousin gave me, and she dares to think about it every day!"

People were coming and going on the road outside Wei's courtyard, and Zhiniang's courtyard was not so weather-proof. This word quickly spread quietly throughout the Qin residence. After hearing this, the old lady was so angry that she didn't even want to eat raw dinner. , Forsythia and Zisu also quickly showed their magical powers, and they found out the news and told Huiniang.

"How could the third girl have such an idea?" Lian Qiao was puzzled, "You are a good lady of the Shangshufu, hurry up to be a concubine—like a big girl, marry to be a talented woman, and after a few years she will be a concubine. Uncle becomes an official, but he is an official wife!"

"Third Sister can't see a talented woman." Hui Niang chuckled, although she didn't get along with this younger sister much, she could see through her—Ling Niang is mean and mean, she likes to focus on small things, but she has a scheming heart But not deep, just like a shallow stream, whether it is jealousy or envy, you can see it clearly at a glance. "Third sister is probably very envious of the imperial concubine."

Lian Qiao opened her mouth, and it took her a long time to realize, "Hey, the imperial concubine is—"

"Is it possible to talk nonsense about the noble concubine?" Zisu quickly covered Lianqiao's mouth.But Lian Qiao was originally the last person in the room to understand what Aninian was implying, and since she figured it out, others naturally understood it too.If you tell the truth, it will be revealed in your deeds instead, which is easy to cause trouble.

Hui Niang only thinks that Ling Niang is vain and powerful, but she is not like Wei and Zhi Niang think that she is whimsical: Isn't the noble concubine born as a concubine, marrying the prince as a side concubine, and finally sitting on the court's favored concubine, and there may even be a possibility in the future Be the queen mother!If the noble concubine can walk the path, who can guarantee that others cannot?

"Okay." Hui Niang put away the needle and thread in her hand, "You have been busy all day, go down to eat, the three of you have not touched the dishes, share them, if there are little maids who haven't eaten yet , give them some..."

"Sister Zisu and Forsythia go eat first, I'll serve you here, and replace me when one of them finishes eating." Ban Xia arranged with a smile.

She is the most experienced maid beside Hui Niang, and Hui Niang obviously relies on her more, so Zi Su winks and doesn't compete with her, tugs on Lian Qiao's sleeve, and the two of them leave the room quietly.

Seeing them leave, Hui Niang beckoned Ban Xia to stand in front of her, "Sister Ban Xia, I asked you to help me find out..."

"I've already found out." Ban Xia pursed her lips, with a look of contempt hidden in her eyes, "The eldest young master has indeed made an idea of ​​Sister Zisu again, and Bai Shu had two fights in private, which made the young master anxious and said ruthlessly Once the words are out, I don’t dare to make trouble anymore.”

"It was just a whim when I became the eldest brother." Hui Niang shook her head, "I didn't think I would take it more seriously. Didn't Lianqiao say that her father had identified a marriage for the eldest brother before, why didn't she mention it recently?" It is more appropriate to ask Lianqiao, but Huiniang feels that Lianqiao is still not prudent enough in doing things. The matter she wanted to inquire about earlier involves Zisu's reputation, so she did not dare to entrust the matter to Lianqiao, but entrusted the more prudent Pinellia .Now that I was talking about it, I thought about it again, so I asked a question by the way.

Ban Xia was already prepared, "I heard that I have already made sure what I said before, but somehow I heard that the young master has a concubine's eldest daughter, that he has an aunt by his side, and that he is pregnant with another, so he wants to go back on his word. But you As soon as the order of this marriage was announced, there was another letter posted over there—now, if the master still takes a fancy to the girl from that family, I am afraid that this matter will definitely be accomplished.”
