Chapter 194(1/3)
Bai Houxuan turned around suddenly and left with great strides.
Jin Sheng looked at his back and left, feeling a little sad.
She slowly walked into her courtyard, and she could not leave the Third Master. If the Third Master really died at his hands, she would not be able to leave.
At the same time, the incident of Jiang Xiaoshu being carried as his wife also spread in the mansion.
Wherever you go now, what you hear is no longer Aunt Jiang, but Mrs. Jiang.
Although she was originally Chen Qianxun, she still had no intention of changing her name.
The second life was given by the Jiang family, and she had no relatives around her now, so she was Jiang Xiaoshu all the time.
Jiang Xiaoshu went to the kitchen for a walk, and her two maids followed her together. When she came back, she saw Wang Moyu and Jiang Xiaoyu standing in the corridor talking.
Wang Moyu's ins and outskirts, as soon as he entered the mansion, Jiang Xiaoyu heard the maid below say, but it was not very glorious. She liked to squeeze her out when she spoke.
At this time, Wang Moyu was saying to her: "Miss Xiaoyu, I heard that my wife (Jiang Xiaoshu) has been worrying about your marriage recently. She wants to marry you out, right?"
Jiang Xiaoyu looked at her and said, "You have to care." She was just a maid from Jiang Xiaoshu's original family, so she didn't take it seriously.
She had a bad attitude, and Wang Moyu was not angry either. She was used to it. This girl who looked at the bottom of the world.
Wang Moyu said again: "Madam is really. Even if you marry an ordinary man, you will be a simple person. It would be better to marry Lord Du Tong as a concubine." After following Lord Du Tong, he would be very popular in this mansion, and he wore beautiful clothes.
"What are you talking about?" Jiang Xiaoyu glared at her angrily.
Wang Moyu said: "Isn't your sister's savior? Go and tell her, is it still difficult to lift your aunt?"
"..." Jiang Xiaoyu looked at her and stopped talking for a while. She wondered in her heart, how could Wang Moyu have such a kind idea for her?
Wang Moyu covered her lips and smiled. Jiang Xiaoshuren had already come over and asked, "What are you doing when you stand here?"
"Miss." Wang Moyu seemed to have just seen her, walked up to her quickly and said with a smile: "Miss, chat a few times, it's just a matter of a woman getting married. Miss Xiaoyu is old now and wants to get married."
"Shut up." Jiang Xiaoyu yelled at her, who would want to get married? Recently, Jiang Xiaoshu has been trying to match her, asking this and that, but it was hard to say that she would really marry her.
Wang Moyu smiled softly: "Miss Xiaoyu is still shy. You clearly said just now that being a concubine for Lord Dutong is better than being a regular wife for ordinary people."
This bitch was clearly what she said.
However, Jiang Xiaoyu did not immediately defend herself, but instead looked at Jiang Xiaoshu in panic.
Jiang Xiaoshu looked at her. As soon as Wang Moyu said this, how could she not know what it meant?
"Xiaoyu, do you really think so?" Jiang Xiaoshu asked.
Jiang Xiaoyu stammered: "I, how dare I imagine Lord Dutong."
"Come with me." Jiang Xiaoshu turned around and left.
Jiang Xiaoyu followed her uneasyly, came to the living room, sat down, and Jiang Xiaoshu asked her again: "Did you mean what you said just now?"
Didn’t you ask just now? Jiang Xiaoyu was a little anxious: “Didn’t I say it? I didn’t have any delusions to Lord Tutong.”
Jiang Xiaoshu nodded: "But you really have to settle the marriage quickly. What I mean is that it is better to be a wife than a concubine."
"Didn't you also be a concubine with someone before?"
“…”
Jiang Xiaoshu glanced at her and asked her: "According to what you mean, do you rather be a concubine than a wife?" If you are a concubine, you will find a wealthy person to marry. If you are married to others, you have to find an ordinary farmer.
Jiang Xiaoyu curled her lips: "It's nothing wrong with being a concubine."
Jiang Xiaoshu nodded: "If you really think so, I can't do anything. Please don't need to beat me anymore. I will say ugly things first. I don't want my sisters to serve the same husband."
"I didn't beat Lord Tuan to pay attention."
"It's good if you don't pay attention to this. If you get into his eyes, maybe this matter will be done."
"Who?" Xiaoyu asked quietly.
Jiang Xiaoshu whispered back to her: "The eldest son of the second uncle's family is also young and handsome."
Knowing that she was talking about the second uncle next door and her daughter became the Empress Dowager, Jiang Xiaoyu curled her lips: "Then you didn't say it earlier."
"..." What did she say earlier? She didn't want her to be a concubine with others...
Since she had to go up to the road of being a concubine, she had no choice.
You can't let her take the attention of Lord Dutong one day. Although the Jiang family has kindness to her, she can't pull all the sisters of the Jiang family over to be concubines with her husband.
"Let's go, let's talk about this with Miss Sheng." Jiang Xiaoshu stood up. Since he had made up his mind, he would talk to her about this while Miss Sheng returned to the door, and Miss Sheng would help him handle it in the future.
She had no relationship with the eldest son of the second uncle's family, but when she fell into the foot of the mountain with Miss Sheng, she had seen the man once. She was indeed handsome and elegant. She almost went to be a maid for her back then.
If Jin Sheng came forward to talk about this, it would probably happen, and Xiaoyu looked good.
Knowing that Jin Sheng was going back now, the master and servant went to the yard where she used to live.
In the past, Jin Sheng was sitting and having tea, and the maid led them to Jin Sheng.
"Sister-in-law." Jin Sheng called her.
Never called this before, Jiang Xiaoshu grinned: "Miss Sheng, I have something to ask you."
"Sister-in-law can call my name in the future." She is now the eldest sister-in-law. Unlike in the past, there is no need to call her Miss Sheng like a servant.
Jiang Xiaoshu thought about it and said, "What's better to call her? Although she is sister-in-law, she is younger than Jin Sheng. You can't call her Sheng too, right?" Then he asked her: "It's good for me to call you A Sheng."
"Okay." Jin Sheng smiled and signaled her to sit down: "What's the matter?"
Jiang Xiaoshu sat down and pointed to Jiang Xiaoyu beside him and said, "A Sheng, look, Xiaoyu is not young anymore. She has not decided on a marriage yet. Although I have a suitable candidate in my heart, I don't know who to talk to. After thinking about it, you can only help me."
Jin Sheng nodded: "Well, let's talk."
"Don't the second uncle next door have an eldest son? If he can succeed, how can you show Xiaoyu betrothed to him?"
Jin Sheng nodded: "Brother Minglan is really good. I'll ask him another day. If it can be successful, let Xiaoyu go over and follow him."
When Jin Sheng arrived, this matter was indeed done. Jiang Xiaoshu said happily: "Thank you, A Sheng."
Jin Sheng smiled: "You're so polite, you're all a family. You're the wife of the governor now. Our Gu family will rely on you to take care of you in the future." In her opinion, it doesn't matter if you have a low background, the key is that you have enough brains.
As a lady like her, she was born into a young lady. When she arrived at the Taifu's mansion, she was so disliked that she just wanted to sweep her out.
Besides, the elder brother has not married for so long, and now he has brought her up as his wife again. It can be seen that in the elder brother's heart, she has weight. She feels happy that the elder brother has someone he likes.
After she said a few words of praise, Jiang Xiaoshu grinned, but felt embarrassed.
At noon, the whole family gathered together for dinner, but the fourth lady was not on the table.
After almost the same meal, Jin Sheng asked: "Where is Sister Yuan? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Why don't you see her coming?"
Jiang Xiaoshu then ordered: "Go and see the fourth lady and ask her to come here."
After dinner, I remembered to ask the fourth lady. It was obvious that I didn’t really care whether her body was comfortable, so Jiang Xiaoshu went straight to the order.
A four-girl who lost her favor and was dissatisfied, really became dispensable in the Guoan Hou Mansion.
The previous generation has gradually passed away, and the younger generations have gradually emerged. Who cares about who the fourth lady is? As long as she doesn't come out and gets annoyed.
After a while, the fourth lady Gu Ruoyuan was invited over. At that time, everyone left the seat and moved to the living room to sit.
The women were talking at the same place, but in fact, Aunt Du and Jiang Xiaoshu were accompanying him. The maid stood by and handed the tea. Gu Yanjing played chess with his sixth brother.
The fourth lady walked in.
Her face was really not very good-looking, so she used to using a veil to cover her face when she went out. Her hair on her forehead also spread a lot, covering most of her face.
She walked over, without saying a word, just looked at everyone, and finally her eyes fell on Gu Jinsheng.
What should she describe now?
The red silk dress looked really full of brilliance. Whether on her body or on her head, the jewelry set her more and more dazzling on her body. She sat there, and everyone sat around her, and among the crowd, she was so conspicuous and elegant, and her graceful demeanor could not overlap with the one she remembered.
I don’t know which year and which day she changed, everything in the mansion changed, everyone died, but she still lived a bright and beautiful life and her charm was even more beautiful.
"Sister Yuan, come and sit down." Jin Sheng had already greeted her.
"Is it Sister Sheng? I almost couldn't recognize it." Gu Ruoyuan said slowly as she walked in, her eyes looking back and forth on her body, and the trace of jealousy could not be suppressed.
How could she live such a good life?
She has been hoping that she can't get married.
Gu Ruoyuan sat down aside, Jin Sheng looked at her and said, "Sister Ruoyuan, I remember, you seem to be one year younger than me."
Ruoyuan replied to her: "Sister Sheng still remembers my age."
"Of course I can't forget it."
"Now my father and mother are gone, and there are too many things happening in the house during this period, so I ignored your marriage."
Gu Ruoyuan pursed her lips. Is she trying to get her out?
Can she marry well like this? Will she find any good family?
Jin Sheng said: "Your marriage cannot be delayed, otherwise it will be even more difficult to get married when you get older. If you don't get married for a long time, it will also have an impact on other women in our house in the future."
Gu Ruoyuan was so angry that she was choking. No matter how great her influence was, at most she was ugly and she was unable to get married. How could she have the influence of Gu Jinsheng? She was with the former emperor... and was not clear about the other King Xiang of Chu...
But, she is so lucky...
