Chapter Seventy-Four: A Tooth for a Tooth......

Originally, Sheng Weiqiao got up late, and was entangled and tossed by Rong Sleeping Crane for too long the night before, and the next day she simply slept until almost noon before getting up, she didn't take it seriously at first, because no one in the county king's mansion took care of her, and there was nothing to get up late.

Still sitting in front of the dressing table, he suddenly remembered that there were two nieces in the house, and hurriedly asked left and right: "Where are Guangchang and Yunyang now?

Silkworm Yue said: "Back to Niangniang's words, the two county kings came to say goodbye early in the morning, and the county king happened to be there at that time, so he went out to receive the salute, and said to the two county kings that you haven't gotten up yet, so let the two county kings take care of themselves in the house." At this time, the county gentlemen should be playing at the fifth master's side, and the slaves and maids have sent pastries and melons and fruits. ”

Sheng Weiqiao was embarrassed when he heard this, and said: "Mizhen is really too much, knowing that the nieces came to say goodbye, they didn't even call me!"

The maids laughed: "The king of the county feels sorry for you." ”

"Then pack it up for me, I need to go see the two children. When Sheng Weiqiao heard the word "distressed", he couldn't help but think of the absurdity in the bathroom last night, his face turned red, and he quickly changed the topic, "It's hot now, don't use this hairpin inlaid with mutton fat jade red sapphire gold hairpin, it is dazzling, and I will be dizzy when I look at it on a hot day." Or choose the carved narcissus, bamboo leaves, peach fruits, baby bamboo basket, jasper, coral hairpin!"

After dressing up like this, Sheng Weiqiao hastily drank two mouthfuls of bird's nest porridge and ran to see the two nieces.

When I arrived at the place, I saw Guangchang Junjun and Yunyang Junjun holding a plate to feed the fifth day of the first month, and the other holding a jade comb to comb the skin of the fifth year, and the twelve niangs next to him flicked their tails, looking at them with some confusion and envy, as if they didn't understand why they had been held in front of Sheng Weiqiao, in front of these two little girls, why was there no big guy who was not spoiled?

"Yo, I'm envious of this enjoyment. Sheng Weiqiao walked in and saw this scene, and first glared at Twelve Niang, this uncompetitive thing, how can you keep coming to the fifth day of the first month?

Then he joked to the two sisters, "You are so used to it, after it left Chang'an with us, there is no such a good life, I can't say that I have to lose my temper!"

Guangchang Junjun and Yunyang Junjun hurriedly put down the things in their hands and came over to salute when they saw her enter the door, and they pursed their lips and smiled when they heard this: "Fifth Uncle has a special person waiting here, and our sisters just temporarily robbed them of their work." ”

"It's different. Sheng Weiqiao smiled and said, "This beauty takes care of her personally, can she compare with the service of a few ordinary servants?"

"But the third aunt is more beautiful than us!" Guangchang Junjun was very articulate, and he was not blocked by this at all, and immediately said, "There is something to say about beautiful and delicious food, and the fifth uncle looked at the third aunt in front of him, but I am afraid that he has a big appetite." ”

Sheng Weiqiao glanced at her in a little surprise, covered his mouth and smiled: "This little mouth is sweet, I can't bear it, don't go back to the palace when you go back, just follow us!"

Guangchang Junjun said with a smile: "We want to, but the eldest sister is going to leave the cabinet at the end of the year, and the younger brothers are all young, and the mother needs someone to help her, but she can't get out!"

"Look at this sensible and filial look!" Sheng Weiqiao didn't really want to take them to Western Xinjiang, after all, although she had a good impression of these two nieces, she didn't get along much in the end, and the relationship was not so deep that it was truly inseparable; second, Western Xinjiang was far less prosperous than Chang'an, and bringing a child who was not her own would inevitably be suspected of wronging others; third, she also knew that the Qi family would never agree.

At this moment, seeing that Guangchang Junjun said this, he didn't continue, but smiled and pinched her cheek, and praised, "I have children when I turn around, this godson is on the top, why do you have to ask my sister-in-law for advice!"

Although these two nieces are lively and jumpy by nature, they are polite and sweet-mouthed, and they are very measured in their words and actions, and Sheng Weiqiao is of course happy to get along with them.

It's just that this kind of happiness lasted until the next day, and was disturbed by Sheng Weirao's visit: "Second sister, did you take the two county gentlemen to live here?"

"Yes. After Sheng Weiqiao saw the Guangchang Junjun and Yunyang Junjun salute, they all stood obediently under the hall, and saw Sheng Weirao wanting to speak and stop, so he said, "Go play, Fuchang is my maiden cousin, you shout your aunt, they are all your own family, you don't have to be formal." ”

After sending her two nieces away, she asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Second sister, do you remember what I told you before, Cai Kui seems to be having a bad time in her mother-in-law's house?" Sheng Weirao saw that the idlers had retreated, so she bowed her head slightly and snorted lightly, "We thought it was too much before, but do you know it?

Sheng Weiqiao was surprised and said: "Didn't the Wu family say that it was a lifelong friendship with Uncle Xu Shi, and Lord Wu's character was also very good?"

"What does Master Wu say...... The problem is mainly with the Cen family!" Sheng Weirao pursed the corners of her mouth, it can be seen from the title "Cen family" that she is very dissatisfied with Mrs. Cen "The two maids she brought before really wanted to stuff Wu Yanyi as a concubine! Cai Kui grew up in the Xu family, and the three generations of men in the Xu family did not have concubines, and she was exposed to it since she was a child, and she didn't like it. When I was in Xiazhou before, I just refused to accept Cen's words, but now I came back to Chang'an, and I was close to my mother's house, so I thought that Cen would not mention it again, right?

"She went to Aunt Nan to persuade Cai Kui to agree to Wu Yanyi's concubine?!" Sheng Weiqiao really couldn't laugh or cry when she heard this, Nan shouldn't be too disgusted with this kind of thing! She didn't even allow her own son, or her only son, to mess with flowers and grass, let alone a son-in-law?

I couldn't help but be curious, "How did my aunt answer her?"

Sheng Weirao said: "Of course, my aunt couldn't agree, and told her that it was because of the friendship between Uncle Xu Shi and Master Wu that they got married, but in the final analysis, it was Cen himself who respected Lord Wu like a guest, thinking that if there was a father, there would be a son. ”

"Then can the Wu family agree and leave?" Sheng Weiqiao asked.

"If you promise, I won't come to you today. Sheng Weirao pouted and said, "Not only did the Cen family not agree, but Wu Yanyi also refused to let go, saying that he thought it was good to pick sunflowers." ”

Sheng Weiqiao said: "Then hasn't this matter stopped?"

"Stop what!" Sheng Weirao said, "The second sister still remembers that the two maids who were dressed differently from the others that day had a very bad appearance, right? At this time, she meant: It is not okay to be reconciled, she is satisfied with Cai Kui's daughter-in-law except for the fact that her husband is not allowed to take a concubine, but the concubine must be accepted, at most the child will be raised by Cai Kui after birth...... Second sister, are you saying that this thing is ridiculous? Cai Kui has only been out of the cabinet for a year, who said that she can't give birth in this life?!"

"Even if she can't give birth, she must raise her concubine as her own flesh and blood?!"

"......" Sheng Weiqiao thought speechlessly, what is the fate of the Xu family? The turmoil of the son and daughter-in-law has just passed, and the daughter's marriage has also been in turmoil!

She groaned and asked, "Aunt Nan will definitely not agree to such a thing, so now is there a stalemate?"

Seeing Sheng Weirao nodded, Sheng Weiqiao was puzzled, "What about Master Wu? Doesn't he have a very good relationship with Uncle Xu Shi?

Sheng Weirao sneered when she heard this: "Lord Wu wanted to persuade the Cen family to come, but he was softened by the Cen family's crying and trouble, and went straight to the Xu family to make amends, saying that he was blessed, and he had a son under his knees so far, which made the Cen family haunted by the problem of the heir and became a heart disease, so please have a lot of people in the Xu family who don't care about the Cen family...... As for the matter of taking concubines, in the final analysis, it is up to the Cen family to decide!"

"This is ridiculous, he only has one son under his knees, isn't it because he has a main room in the Cen family?" Sheng Weiqiao also sneered, "Since the Cen family is so concerned about the issue of heirs, why don't you be virtuous and recruit concubines for Lord Wu, and ask Wu Yanyi to have a few more younger brothers and sisters? Could it be that if you give Wu Yanyi a concubine, you will be called a branch and leaves, and if you give a concubine to Lord Wu, you will not be the heirs of the Wu family?"

Master Wu said that when he was in a bad situation, the Cen family followed him, so he couldn't bear to live up to it. Sheng Weirao shook the palace fan slowly and methodically, and her tone was mocking, "Aunt Nan said that when Cai Kui came out of the pavilion, she didn't dislike the Wu family's Ding Dan and was still in the remote Xiazhou, could it be that the Xu family's intention to fulfill their promise can be disappointed? Then Lord Wu has nothing to say, just make a fool." Cen said that Lord Wu was not in good health, and taking too many concubines was not good for his body. ”

She said this with a little strange look, and then continued, "Ying Jiang was present at the time, and when he heard this, he immediately asked Xu Baomo to go and join forces with Wu Yanyi...... Second sister, you probably don't know, although Wu Yanyi grew up in the frontier, he followed Master Wu, he is a weak scholar, where is Xu Baomo's opponent?

So Ying Jiang told the Wu family, it seems that Wu Yanyi is not in good health, so don't take a concubine, after all, Cai Kui is honest, and he wants to live with someone wholeheartedly when he leaves the pavilion, but he is not the kind of person who thinks that his husband is dead and can remarry. This requires the Cen family to get a few concubines for Wu Yanyi in the room, and when Wu Yanyi turns around, he has three long and two short, how can the Wu family explain to Cai Kui?"

The corners of Sheng Weiqiao's mouth twitched when she heard this: "Ying Jiang's temper! Although it is for Cai Kui, Wu Yanyi is Cai Kui's husband in the end, and she is not afraid that the Xu family will blame her when she says this." ”

said so, but Sheng Weiqiao knew that several elders of the Xu family were not such stingy people, and they all magically had extreme trust and guilt towards Gongsun Yingjiang, it is estimated that Gongsun Yingjiang said this, and the Nan family and others would not say a word about her, and even felt that this was Gongsun Yingjiang's performance of defending her sister-in-law.

"What is she talking about?" Sheng Weirao's face was even more strange, "Yesterday, I went to Ningweihou Mansion to see Cai Kui, and I met Ying Jiang in the garden to enlighten her alone...... What did you say to Jiang and Caikui?"

Without waiting for Sheng Weiqiao to answer, she glanced at Jinli and the others, and asked everyone to retreat, not at ease, so she specially used a palace fan to block her mouth, and leaned in front of Sheng Weiqiao and whispered, "Ying Jiang said Cai Kui: Your mother-in-law beat your husband's idea, you have to fight for a tooth for a tooth, and also go to fight Lord Wu's idea! And as far as she sees Lord Wu and Wu Yanyi, it is obvious that although Lord Wu is old, his bearing is far better than that of his son! If she is Cai Kui, her mother-in-law dares to stuff her people, and she will go to ...... Master Wu."

Sheng Weiqiao, who was familiar with Gongsun Yingjiang's nature, "chuckled" in his heart, and his face was expressionless.

Sure enough, Sheng Weirao's cheeks flushed embarrassedly, and her voice was like a gnat, "...... Put Master Wu to sleep!"

"......" Sheng Weiqiao took a deep breath, resisted the urge to rush to Ningwei Hou's Mansion to hack the unconscious niece to death now, and asked through gritted teeth, "What about later?"

"Later?" Sheng Weirao said, "Cai Kui and I were taken aback by this...... So comforted her for a while!"

Sheng Weiqiao looked at her speechlessly: "Comfort Ying Jiang?!"

"She even said such nonsense, obviously she was angry!" Sheng Weirao didn't know why, "Although she was born at sea and is used to using this kind of evil method to retaliate, which is unacceptable to people like us, but in the end, isn't it a good intention?"

"......" Sheng Weiqiao was silent for a while before he said quietly, "Hmm!"

But immediately turned around and shouted into the hibiscus fence, "Go and ask Ningwei Hou Mansion Ming'er if it's convenient?" I want to go and see Cai Kui." ”

Originally, she thought that although she and Xu Caikui had released their previous suspicions, after all, they were not very close in character, nor were they very affectionate. Now that there are two nieces in the mansion, I don't bother to go to the Hou Mansion to visit.

But now, she felt she had to go!!

Because Xu Caikui and Sheng Weirao felt that Gongsun Yingjiang's words were nonsense, Sheng Weiqiao knew that Gongsun Yingjiang really did this kind of thing!

Although she persuaded Xu Caikui to do this at the time, she !!

What if this guy thinks that Lord Wu's type is very worth sleeping, and he is still living in the guest courtyard of Ningwei Hou's Mansion at this time, which is the first month near the water, and the sister-in-law doesn't eat it herself???

Therefore, Sheng Weiqiao said that he would go over anything, and he must beat this niece hard to put an end to the shocking scandal!!
