The Lofty Fierce Consort

Chapter 104

? Things are roughly like this.

Yan Qian was making a fuss about going to the garden to relax. Mrs. Wu didn’t have the energy to care about her, so she explained that her servants must look after her. Fortunately, Yan Qian is also witty, and has not touched the bottom line. People only think she wants to breathe, as long as she doesn’t come into contact with others.

Who ever thought that Yan Qian still found a chance to meet Wu Fenghao, the eldest grandson of the Wu family.

Wu Fenghao Zhilan Yushu, brilliant and talented, only twenty-five years old, he is already a concubine in the Imperial Academy. You must know that the Hanlin Academy is also a concubine, and non-ordinary people are not allowed to enter. There is no back door to talk about, and they are selected from the top two or three in each subject.

Wu Fenghao’s ability to achieve such a high achievement in the twenty-fifth year is naturally inseparable from his diligent study and reading. He has cultivated his nerd character, and he is kind and charitable and compassionate to the weak. Yan Qian will choose him as his goal. , It’s not aimless.

Yan Qian had inherited Aunt Pei’s weak appearance, and she would pity one third before she said anything. While watching her maid go to the toilet, she ran out in a hurry and slammed into the arms of Wu Fenghao who was passing by.

Wu Fenghao held her back, and when she raised her head with tears in her eyes, she shrank with fright. After that, he seemed panicked, and begged him to stop telling him that he saw her.

Such a weak female stream is so pitiful, coupled with curiosity, Wu Fenghao asked a few times. Yan Qian didn’t have time to answer him, as if he was afraid of being overtaken, he led her to his bookstore at the back of the garden.

This bookstore is used by Wu Fenghao for his daily reading. The scenery here is very nice and quite quiet. Wu Fenghao likes to be quiet, and his house is clear, so no one would dare to come in and disturb.

Yan Qian was picking and choosing to inform him of her life experience while she wanted to refuse and greet her.

In her statement, she is a very poor concubine who has been living under the hands of her aunt since she was a child. One time when she was out as a guest, her cousin used her words to please Wu Qiongqiong.

Wu Qiongqiong is Wu Fenghao’s relatives, which aroused Wu Fenghao’s curiosity, and then the next thing naturally followed.

As a long-standing concubine, she was implicated in the conflict between the two parties. The aunt’s mother hated her for ruining her sister’s reputation. Not only did she severely punished her, but she also married her away from Beijing to a wife of a queer. The old widower is a continuation. She really couldn’t bear it, so she ran out of the house secretly. After being robbed of the property by the gangster, Lu met Wu Qiongqiong from the Mengshan paddock.

Wu Qiongqiong invited her to stay at home. She thought it was kind of pity, but when she got out of the tiger’s den and entered the wolf’s den, Wu Qiongqiong became malicious and wanted to use her to continue fighting with her sister.

This is Yan Qian’s guess based on the situation in the past few days, she naturally doesn’t know what the real inside is like.

But Wu Qiongqiong is Wu Fenghao’s relatives, she has never been familiar with her personality, plus Wu Fenghao is a big man, although the personality is a bit dull, but it is not ignorant of the world. Coupled with the little fear revealed by Yan Qian’s words and deeds, and the words that he was watched by the maid in Chengri, Wu Fenghao could already guess that it was definitely not a good thing.

Wu Fenghao’s face was not so good on the spot.

Although Wu Qiongqiong is his sister, he doesn’t like this sister very much. Wu Qiongqiong has a stubborn nature. He is lawless because of his grandfather’s love and mother’s love. He always beats and scolds his servants, and he has frequent conflicts with other ladies outside, and Wu Fenghao is not unaware.

Not to mention that Wu Wenjun’s wife Pei Jiayi is always harshly criticized by Wu Qiongqiong, and Wu Fenghao’s wife, Liu, is not the case, but this is a sister-in-law, and her mother-in-law is backing her, so she can only bear it. Wu Fenghao has a good relationship with Liu’s family, and he also knows that his wife is a kind and docile person. He always sees her being bullied by her relatives, and Wu Fenghao is not without feeling in his heart.

This is the so-called impact of impressions on people. As long as you give people this impression on weekdays, even if you haven’t done this kind of thing, it will make people preconceived, so Wu Fenghao didn’t doubt what Yan Qian said.

Yan Qian cried with pear blossoms and rain, she was born beautiful, and she was in a state of winning and weak, which made people feel pity for three points. Coupled with such a bumpy life experience, Wu Fenghao can’t help but sigh.

Yan Qian also told Wu Fenghao everything about being confessed by the family, so the young girl in front of her was really lonely and completely helpless, and the initiator of all this was her own sister.

Out of the mentality of making up, Wu Fenghao also thought of several ways for Yan Qian. For example, he came to persuade his mother and asked her to personally accompany Yan Qian to return to the Weiyuan Hou Mansion, only to say that the little girl had forgotten to play for a while, and forgot to tell her family that she was in Wu’s house, so she gave such a big oolong. It’s not that there is no room for return, but Yan Qian refused.

She coughed and coughed, “If you really send me home, I must be dead if I go home. I ran out this time with the mentality of being broken, even if I hang myself in a place, I don’t want to marry. The old widower.”

In fact, Wu Fenghao was just rushing to the doctor, not to mention whether Mrs. Wu would do this, she really asked her to send Yan Qian back, how can she explain to the Yan family, can she avoid it with just a sentence of ignorance?

It must be impossible. Yan Qian can forget, and Wu Qiongqiong can also forget. What did your Wu family eat, you have forgotten for so many days! ? And seeing Yan Qian being watched by Mrs. Wu sent out like this, she will definitely end up not going well afterwards.

“Master Wu, please save me. Now only you can save me. I don’t hold grudges or complains. I’m broken. I’m just protecting my sister-in-law from disasters. Just treat me as I am. You owe her in your previous life, and you will pay your debts in this life. Take pity on me, treat me as a little cat and puppy, give me a tile to cover the wind, and I will be a slave and a maid in return…”

How can Yan Qian be saved as a slave?

She didn’t think so!

Being led and misled in this way, Wu Fenghao really made a decision that satisfied Yan Qian.

He decided to Na Yanqian as a concubine and included her in the wings.

Of course, Wu Fenghao said that this is just for people to see. If Yan Qian has a man he likes in the future, or wants to leave Wu Mansion, he will let her leave in feign death. Anyway, Yan Qian is now’check no such person’. The identity name is no longer important to her.

Yan Qian was overjoyed, knelt down and knocked Wu Fenghao a few times before she was restrained by Wu Fenghao.

Mrs. Wu just calmed down her daughter, but she unexpectedly waited for such news–

Her own son came and told her that he wanted to take the little **** she wanted to eat as a concubine!

And her own son made a look of relieving her mother’s worries, which really made Mrs. Wu want to vomit blood.

But what can Mrs. Wu say? First of all, they are pinched by others, and the only way to solve their problems is blocked again. Even if Mrs. Wu is Wu Fenghao’s mother, she wants to maintain a kind and loving image in front of her son. How can she be naked/naked? / Naked that you want to kill that little **** to avoid future troubles?

So Yan Qian’s dream came true.

In the courtyard of Wu Fenghao’s large room, the red wine was hung up in a decent manner, and Yan Qian was taken as a maid, and he lifted his aunt and moved into a small courtyard behind the residence of Wu Fenghao and Liu.

The story naturally does not end as simple as that.

Wu Fenghao is indeed a good man. He didn’t think about taking advantage of others, but he couldn’t hold back someone thinking about him. Even if he has a status now, it is more reassuring to not add a fact.

The two of them had this name, and Yan Qian was used to pretending to always lead Wu Fenghao to see her from time to time, so the facts became a matter of course.

Wu Fenghao has an extraordinarily considerate, lonely, and beautiful pillow person.

What Yan Qian learned from Aunt Pei finally came into play. Mr. Nafu, Mrs. Zhongna, and the following also take care of cultivating their own power.

The Liu family is a submissive temperament, so she is naturally not Yan Qian’s opponent. Yan Qian is used to taking eye drops, always pretending to look like Liu in front of Wu Fenghao while Wu Fenghao is not bullying her. Wu Fenghao and the Liu family also had a rift because of this, and Yan Qian could be said to have gotten together in the back home of Wu’s house.

The only thing that is not beautiful is Wu Qiongqiong.

After Wu Qiongqiong’s face was wounded, he still left a scar.

The scar is not obvious, and if you cover it up with powder, you can’t see it, but Wu Qiongqiong hates it in her heart. Knowing that the **** had actually become her elder brother’s concubine, she cursed the **** secretly, and went to Wu Fenghao to find Yan Qian from time to time. Yan Qian really suffered a lot.

But with Wu Fenghao’s backing, Wu Qiongqiong was not pleased but it was true.

When Yan Qian was fighting with Wu Qiongqiong and Liu family in the Wu family backyard, the Wu family suddenly faced an unprecedented disaster, and Wu Shangshu was taken into custody by Dali Temple.

…

Things have to be said before.

At the flower banquet of the Yiyong Marquis that day, under the deliberate guidance of Yan Qian, Wu Qiongqiong and his small attendant Pei Jiayu, the three of them got together to corrupt Yan Yan’s reputation. It’s a pity that Yan Yan has always been a temperament with grudges on the spot, fighting for her own reputation, slapped Yan Qian with a full face, and also slapped Wu Qiongqiong.

After being beaten, the ugliness was lost, and the conspiracy of the three people was also made public. Second, Mrs. Shen also supported his niece and pressed Mrs. Wu to come to the door to apologize. Mrs. Wu was angry at Shen’s house, turned her head and ran to Pei’s house.

The relationship between the Pei family and the Wu family is inherently secretive, and Mrs. Wu can’t leave room for people in her work, and she often corrupts the Pei family’s reputation outside. Naturally, the Pei family’s daughters could not suffer from this loss, and the two families have become like passers-by who have since confronted each other.

The former Shi Lang was exiled, and the only pillar had collapsed. The Pei family is now all pointing to the Wu family, and where is Mrs. Wu’s opponent. The female relatives of the Pei family were forbearing at first, but couldn’t bear it, and finally tore away.

Now Wu Shangshu was in bad luck, and was implicated in the dispute between the two women.

So the matter between women is not a trivial matter.

No, adults will be implicated in trivial matters.

***

There is a new chapter in the former imperial fraud case. It turns out that Pei Nan, the former minister of courtesy, is a scapegoat.

The person who made people scapegoat was Wu Yi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

Emperor Xi was furious and ordered Dali Temple to conduct a thorough investigation.

At this time, the capital was exploded, and the previous incidents once again spread.

Xu Xiangrong has been exhausted these few days. Wu Yi is a member of Xu Guifei’s line and the mainstay of the forces during the period. When something happened, Xu Xiangrong ran away privately.

Even so, Wu Yi is not easy to get away.

Dali Temple is the site of the Prince’s family, and it is not easy to find the opponent’s shortcomings, but it is not suffocating to investigate. After some investigation, it was not **** but shit. Anyway, many people in the royal family were implicated.

Fortunately, that Pei Nan was useless, and there was no need for anyone to mention him when he returned to Beijing for interrogation, so he sprayed his blood and soul back to Jiuyou, which saved Xu Xiangrong a lot. Afterwards, Wu Shangshu’s official position was not preserved, but he was fine, but he could only go home to provide for the elderly. I don’t know if this is a blessing.

Anyway, it is not a blessing for Xu Xiangrong and the imperial concubine. Without a book of etiquette, there are countless young talents to use for them. Empress Xiao was in a good mood these few days, and Chengri smiled on her face. On the contrary, Xu Guifei was much dim, and she closed the palace door and hugged herself. Within a few days, Emperor Xi took the initiative to go to Chunluan Palace to see her, and Empress Xiao’s expression changed from sunny to cloudy.

Press not to mention.

At the Weiyuan Hou Mansion, seeing Yan Yan and Qi approaching, Shen Yiyao was holding a grand ceremony for her daughter.

Kiwan is a woman’s coming-of-age ceremony, which has a special meaning for the daughter’s family. Therefore, most people will hold a wedding ceremony for the daughter in the family. The scale of the wedding ceremony depends on the situation of the family.

When Shen Yiyao was at the wedding ceremony, the low-key Zhen Guo Gong held a very grand wedding ceremony for her daughter. When she arrived at Yan Yan, Shen Yiyao would naturally not wait to take it lightly. Even if it is not as good as he was at the beginning, he must be decent, not to mention that the daughter is now the future four princes and concubines, so naturally she can only do a lot of things.

Naturally, no one stopped it, but because of this, many unpleasant things happened.

It turned out that there are many things involved in giving Yan Yan the ceremony. For example, food utensils, house staff, rituals and ceremonies and reception, and even Weiyuanhou began to repair and decorate many days in advance, and it is always impossible to be short in front of others.

All of these require money, which is naturally spent by the public.

Now the Chen family manages the house, but only cares about the money. The money flows out of the old lady’s hands and goes directly to the accountant. There is no money in the account, and no one knows better than the Chen family. She is just like the Xue family at the beginning, secretly not knowing how many times she scolded the old lady so much.

This time, Yan Yan handled the ceremony. Everyone who had money and other places would naturally report it to the Chen family, but they got stuck in the Chen family. Chen was also very aggrieved, and there was no money on her account. Where would she spend it? Shen Yiyao’s management was so enthusiastic, but when she came to her, she had no money and no money.

For the first time, Shen Yiyao showed annoyance in front of Chen’s family. Chen’s wailing wailing said that Er’s wife is too big for her to be the master.

In other words, the old lady’s consent is needed.

The Xue family came to the Chen family together with Shen Yiyao. Seeing that the Chen family shrugged off like this, he couldn’t help but sneered: “The third siblings, the girl and the girl in the house are not trivial things. , My family’s small one is over. A Yan is the eldest daughter of the second brother, and also a serious lady of the Hou Mansion, the future four princes and concubines, she wants to save it now. silver!”

After a pause, she said again: “And I can’t hear what you said. What is the second sibling’s hand is too big, can it be done if this is not a big deal? I can’t make a joke of outsiders at that time. ”

Chen slapped his lips upset and accused him repeatedly: “Second sister-in-law, my younger siblings are clumsy. I didn’t mean that. But you also know that the money in the house is in charge of the mother. I, the housekeeper, said that he was responsible. In fact, many things cannot be done. There is no extra money on this account, and I can’t change it.”

Shen Yiyao’s face was not good, so she turned and left.

The merchants who came to deliver the goods to the Weiyuan Hou Mansion were still waiting for the silver, so Shen Yiyao had to pay for the silver and put the silver on it first.

Xue said she was stupid and said that no amount of money should be done. How could it be that A Yan is not a girl in the house, and even the mother of you must pay for the money by yourself. There is no such reason anywhere. .

Shen Yiyao was not very comfortable in her heart, and her words were even more poking at her heart, so she went to find the old lady again with the Xue family.

When the two arrived, Chen was also there, and seemed to be talking about it with the old lady.

Seeing Shen Yiyao, Chen’s face was a little embarrassed.

Naturally, she came to report the matter, and by the way, she also killed Shen Yiyao.

She said that all the ladies make a party, and use the best of everything that day. After a rough calculation, she was at least three thousand taels in this way, but she still said that even no matter how big a family is, she can’t stand the toss of her.

The Chen family has been in charge of the house for a while, and the old lady is always nitpicking. In addition, the money on the account is tight, and the old lady is digging hard every day, she is not a generous person herself, and she gradually gave birth to the idea that this family is for her own, and Shen Yiyao will lose her money if she spends too much money.

In the past few days, the old lady’s heart is not going well. She originally pointed to Zhuangzi’s harvest and put some silver into her purse. However, this year’s harvest time is the time of the weather. The following management report says that most of the farmland on Zhuangzi has been damaged this year. The renter may not be able to collect it if it has been harvested.

The family is about to reach the point where it can’t be opened. At this moment, I heard Chen said that it would cost three thousand taels to hold the ceremony and the ceremony. How could the old lady’s complexion be good if he couldn’t stop it. While scolding Shen Yiyao’s prodigal in front of Chen’s face, she listened to the girl below to report that the second wife had come.

So as soon as Shen Yiyao stood still, the old lady took the lead.

“I heard the third daughter-in-law say that you want to give A Yan a gift, and you have to do it in Dali. The cost is only a few thousand taels?”

Shen Yiyao glanced at Chen’s.

Chen’s half-hanging face turned red with a bang. I complained about how the old lady said this in front of her second wife, what would Shen Yiyao think of her then, would she think she was instigating her in front of the old lady.

That’s for sure, just listen to the tone and expression of the old lady, everyone will think so.

Xue clan glanced at the Chen clan sarcastically, then smiled and said, “No, this A Yan has a different identity, and she is the next four princes and concubines, but she can’t do it lightly. The second sibling’s discretion is to cut down on this cost. I cut it again and decided. This is not a long face for you, mother, let outsiders see, our Weiyuan Hou Mansion will not leave others, all the royal daughter-in-laws in this mansion.”

Xue is indeed a talking person. With these words, she found Shen Yiyao down the steps and handed the ladder to the old lady. If she changed to a normal person, she would naturally go down the ladder, but the key point is that the old lady is not a normal person.

Wrong, it’s not that the old lady is abnormal, but now she doesn’t have the conditions to be normal.

Three thousand taels, enough for half a year in the house!

If she can have thirty thousand taels and ask her to pay three thousand taels to her parents’ face, she is naturally willing. But now the problem is, she can’t even get three thousand taels, how can she care about giving herself a face?

Just like the rich person, he doesn’t have to worry about his livelihood, he naturally has the energy to get some gorgeous accessories and to nurture his self-cultivation and temperament, and make himself look different. It can be replaced by a poor family who can’t even fill their stomachs, running around for a living all day long, and how can there be that spare money to get those tricks?

The two principles are the same.

The old lady wants a face too, but the key is that she can’t even take care of the lining. What’s the use of a face? If the face can be exchanged for several thousand taels of silver, the old lady doesn’t mind going to exchange her old face!

So the old lady not only didn’t use Xue’s ladder to climb down, but she also scolded Xue on it, so that it made a mouthful of foam flying!

“You Xue’s standing and talking can’t have low back pain, are you? You say it lightly. Others’ families are diligent and thrifty, to show my simple virtue after waiting for honor. Only you have a big face and are used to pretending! I know you I want to use A Yan’s light to tell Yan Ru a good relationship. The cousin of the four princes and concubines in the future will be able to have a face when she speaks out, but if it violates our house’s family governance, I will not allow it. !”

These words made Xue’s face blue and black.

She doesn’t deny that she has such an idea, but everyone will have such an idea!

A Yan has a long face, her own family’s face, and the whole family has a long face. How did it fall into the mouth of the old lady and the Chen family to become the “extreme evil”?

And what’s the simple, thrifty housekeeping. There are some honorable families who slogans like this, but they are all for the sake of the saints, which is really like this. But I put a layer of good-looking skin on myself, and I have stayed in the realm of the capital for a long time. No one knows that this is actually a guise. At the moment, I know that I used a person as a guise. !

Of course, Shen Yiyao understood these words, which seemed to be scolding Xue, but in fact they were saying that she was a demon.

She suddenly turned annoyed, and where did she act as a demon for her daughter? As A Yan, if you start a small school, you will make everyone in Beijing laugh!

The old lady did have this idea. She knew that Shen Yiyao had always been thin-skinned, and she would not be embarrassed to open her mouth if she even tried to fight.

As for Yan Yan and Xiaoli, Shen Yiyao is rich, so naturally she won’t lose her daughter.

The old lady’s wishful thinking was very precise, but she miscalculated that Shen Yiyao was no longer the same Shen Yiyao she used to be.

“That mother meant to say that the mansion didn’t give money to make gifts for A Yan?”

A very simple sentence directly blocked the old lady’s mouth, making her look better immediately.

There was a sudden heartbeat in her heart, but she couldn’t act as if she was angry.

Naturally, the old lady could use this voice to directly pour over her anger, and the matter would naturally not stop. But once this happens, everyone will say that her old lady is fainted for not giving gifts to her granddaughter, and she will be ashamed by that time. If someone leaked this out, she wouldn’t have to be a human being in the future. After all, no matter where she was speaking, this would be reproachable.

It was extremely difficult for the old lady to not only want lining, but also to preserve some of her face. The idea in my heart is to think twice, but in fact it is just a moment. The old lady sternly said, “I didn’t say such a thing. I just teach you juniors how to be frugal.”

“That’s because my daughter-in-law misunderstood what the mother meant.” Shen Yiyao smiled apologetically, and then said: “Then I don’t know how much money the mansion is going to spend to do this and ritual for A Yan. The sister-in-law I should have said before has also said so, I will not I have repeated them one by one to my mother and the third younger siblings. Now it’s just one thing, but don’t let A Yanhan worry my family, and let the Weiyuan Hou Mansion lose face in front of the noble families in Beijing.”

The Chen family did not expect that Shen Yiyao would bring herself in public, as if she was in charge of not giving money to the three girls and making gifts. Although she did play a role in it, can she slap her face so brightly? Chen’s neck is red now.

Xue’s mouth curled his lips and smiled. It was true that everyone was a clay man. Before, she was just too lazy to care about her, when no one could see the little movements behind her.

The old lady glared at Shen Yiyao, digging for a while, and then she said: “You also know that this mansion has a big business and a large population. So many girls have to marry next to each other. You pay five hundred taels.”

Five hundred taels?

Five hundred taels is indeed less, and it is not very pleasant to say it.

At the beginning, Yan Ru and Qi, Xue family made a fuss, and the old lady also gave out five hundred taels to do a small one. But don’t forget that it’s a small office. Almost no outsiders were invited to watch the ceremony. They also came from the Weiyuan Hou Mansion and the Xue family. There was still a little surplus in the big room, and the rest of the Xue family were all taken care of. Buckled it down, preparing for Yan Ru to marry her daughter in the future and place a dowry.

Shen Yiyao did not speak, just looked at the old lady.

The old lady paused, her face showing a toothache: “One thousand taels! After all, A Yan’s status is higher than Ru’er, only one thousand taels!”

Shen Yiyao didn’t entangle anymore, nodded and thanked her for leaving.

On the way, the Xue family whispered to her, “It seems that the situation in the mansion is indeed not good. It is said that A Yan will not have a dowry at that time, and the mansion will not pay any money, which is another annoying thing.”

Before Shen Yiyao could speak, Xue sighed again: “Oh, what will my family do when Ru’er comes! Ayan has you, a rich mother, so she won’t lose face anyway, I will have to be my family then. The eldest girl has a good plan.”

Shen Yiyao earnestly helped her plan, “Don’t panic beforehand. A Yan and Yan will be there for many ladies that day. When the time comes to let the eldest girl come out to help the guests, it will inevitably be loved by someone. The marriage is settled first. Let’s talk about the dowry later. If there is less money, there are ways to do it, and there are more ways to get more money. It is always necessary for the big girl to marry out gracefully.”

Xue said gratefully: “Thanks to you, the second younger siblings, or the marriage of Ru’er in my family is enough to cause me a headache. I originally wanted to point out that the Hou Mansion can be used as a guard of honor, so that everyone, big and small, can settle down well. But now Look, there are no good things, but there are a lot of bad things.”

Shen Yiyao sighed and shook her head helplessly, not knowing what to say. ?
