Li Qi Niang's extras (II)

Wanting's marriage has been decided, which is also a matter of Li Qiniang's heart.

Li Qiniang set out to prepare a dowry for Wanting. Li Qiniang is not stingy, and her family is rich in money, so she didn't lose Wanting, and the dowry for Wanting is very affordable, such as land, which is a good thing that has income every year.

When Wanting got married, although the dowry she brought out was only sixty-four taels, in fact, the dowry given to her by the public was more than 40,000 taels, not including the things that added makeup and what Lin Qinghan left for Wanting.

sent Wanting out, and Li Qiniang also completed a big thing. In the next few years, she also taught the two girls with peace of mind; As for Brother Jing'er, now that he is sensible, he himself said that he wanted to follow the text, and Li Qiniang naturally responded happily. Their family is in a special situation, even if they are from the text, they also have enough resources. After all, there are four Jinshi in the uncle's family, and all four of them are now officials in the court, and they are all members of their own families, and Brother Jing will definitely help them.

Li Qiniang didn't say that she was playing Brother Jing to pay homage to the marquis, she hoped that her son could live a smooth life. Now that her son is from literature, she is also happy. If you are a martial artist, you can easily risk your life in case of war.

In a blink of an eye, it was the forty-fifth birthday of the master, and Li Qiniang asked someone to send a letter to Wanting. Speaking of which, Wanting is also a blessed person, she became pregnant not long after passing the door, and gave birth to a son in her first child. Now that she has given birth to three children, she has completely gained a firm foothold in Duanwangfu.

Not long after, the mother-in-law came back and replied to her: "Madam, the eldest girl said that she has a heavy filial piety and cannot come back to attend the banquet, and asked the lady to talk to the master." ”

Li Qiniang was very accepting: Si: "Duanwangfu is not good, is there no funeral?" "If there is a funeral, she still doesn't know.

The mother-in-law who sent the letter in the past whispered: "Madam, it is the one who went, and the eldest girl is keeping filial piety for that person." I also inquired that the aftermath of that person was also taken care of by the eldest girl. "Lin Qinghan is a woman, and her mother-in-law directly used that person as her name.

Li Qiniang waved her hand to let her mother-in-law go down.

Mrs. Cao said: "We don't know any news about this. "Mrs. Cao felt that Wanting's secrecy work was too good.

Li Shi was not angry, although Lin was not a housewife, but she was Wanting's biological mother, she took care of her biological mother's funeral, and kept filial piety for her biological mother: "I don't blame her for this." You think, how can she tell me about this? "No matter how good her relationship with Wanting is, it is impossible to tell her this kind of thing. Well, I didn't tell her about it.

Mrs. Cao thought for a while and felt that Li's words were also reasonable.

Li Qiniang remembered when she first met Wanting: "It's also a shame that my aunt and grandmother let her study with my husband for four years that day, otherwise I would have suffered a sin like that." ”

Before the age of thirteen, Wanting only had two things, one was to study with Mr. Yun, and the second was to learn rules and etiquette from Mama Dou. But later, Mama Dou also taught Wanting some housekeeping things, of course, it was all theory.

Yueyao's thoughts that day were also very simple, the rational governor was the most important thing, and it didn't matter if the female celebrity didn't cook. If you don't know how to cook a red woman, you can spend money to hire someone at that time, but if your brain is not clear, then everything is empty.

Wanting couldn't even embroider a purse before she was + three years old, not to mention the kitchen, and later it was the Li family who taught her.

Mrs. Cao now looks at Wanting much more pleasing to the eye, because Wanting still respects Li Qiniang very much: "I heard that he is only a few months younger than the old man, and he is only forty-five years old this year, but why did he go?" "Her master was still in the prime of life, and the man went and died too early.

Li Qiniang said: "He divorced and remarried, and couldn't give birth again, this day must be very difficult, and it's not strange to go so early." In fact, Li Qiniang felt that the Lin family was a little paranoid, otherwise why did she repeatedly get along with her aunt and grandmother? The two have no conflict of interest, if they don't like to just play to maintain their affection, but the Lin family can make so many things alone.

Mrs. Cao asked, "Madam, do you want to tell the master?" ”

Li said: "Naturally, it is a trick to tell the master. "I can't hide this if I want to, and when Wanting didn't come that day, the master knew about it.

Li himself was not happy to tell Tingzheng about this, so he asked a mother-in-law to go over and relay this to Tingzheng. As for what will happen if she knows, it is not up to her.

The Lin family passed away, and it had nothing to do with Li Qiniang, so Li Qiniang quickly put this matter behind her. But a few months later, Ting Zheng directly ordered someone to call Wanting back.

Mrs. Cao came over in a panic and said, "Madam, the eldest girl is crying in the old man's yard, and she doesn't know what happened?" ”

Li Qiniang also accepted: Si, although it is said that Tingzheng's most precious person is Brother Qing'er now, he is also very painful to Wanting, and this loud scolding has never been done before.

Mrs. Cao asked carefully: "Do you want to play slaves and maids, go and inquire." ”

Li Qiniang thought that the master avoided her and went directly to Wanting, and she also knew that she probably didn't want her to know about it, so Li Qiniang didn't think about coming forward: "Well, let's see what's going on?" "Li Qiniang's housekeeper is still very good, inside and out, as tight as a bucket. In the same way, she couldn't hide the news from her if she wanted to know the news in the mansion.

Mrs. Cao came back soon, her face a little ugly. Under Li Qiniang's urging, Cao Pozi said: "The Lin family was not buried in the ancestral tomb of the Zhao family, but was buried elsewhere by the eldest girl." The old man was asking the eldest girl about the burial place of the Lin family, but the eldest girl seemed unwilling to say, so there was a dispute. "It's been so many years, almost twenty years, and they still can't forget the Lin family, where does this put their wife.

Li Qiniang didn't go to fight with a dead man, but just asked strangely: "Why doesn't the Lin family want to be buried in the ancestral grave of the Zhao family?" "Wanting, as a daughter, will definitely not find a place to bury the Lin family casually. The Lin family was not buried in the ancestral grave of the Zhao family, it must have been her own intention.

Mrs. Cao shook her head, Lin's thoughts were very different, she couldn't think of them.

Li Qiniang knew the whole story, so she threw it away. She will definitely not interfere in this matter, and I believe that the master and the eldest girl do not want her to interfere. However, Li Qiniang looked down on Tingzheng's style in her heart, since she was so worried, why did she play peace and leave in the first place?

Thinking that it was still said that the Lin family and the old man were forced by the eldest aunt and grandmother, Li Qiniang couldn't help but shake her head. The aunt and grandmother were also heartfelt and heartfelt for their husbands, but in exchange for such a result

Li Qiniang quickly put these things aside and turned to worry about her daughter's marriage. Ping Ting is now sixteen years old, and it is time to say goodbye. Since last year, Li Qiniang has been choosing her daughter's in-laws, but several of her fancies have been rejected by the master. She didn't even know what kind of master he was choosing.

It didn't take long for Li Qiniang to know the reason. looked at Tingzheng Li Qiniang as if struck by lightning: "What did you say?" Present a trick to let Ting enter the palace? ”

Ting Zheng nodded and said: "Cheng Shang told me about this last year, but I didn't want you to worry, so I didn't tell you that I would enter the palace at the beginning of next year at the latest." ”

Li Qiniang's hands were trembling, as soon as she entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and she was in the palace, who didn't know that it was a place to eat people! Li Qiniang grabbed Tingzheng's hand and said, "Master, Ping Ting is still so young, how can she enter the palace?" Master, is there no room for this to change countries? ”

Ting Zheng shook his head and said, "I don't want my daughter to enter the palace either, but it's hard to disobey the holy order." "Wanting is also his daughter, how could he be willing to let his daughter go to that place, but Emperor Chrysostom said that he didn't have the courage to resist.

Li Qiniang felt that there was still hope: "Eldest sister, didn't she push the relatives of the Cheng family?" Surely we can? "Er Chengzi took a fancy to Kexin and wanted to marry Kexin as a concubine. As a result, before the holy decree came down, Yueyao got the news, and then immediately entered the palace, and the matter was finally over.

Ting just said angrily: "That's different. "How can Er Chengzi be compared to Emperor Chengdi! The world is not the king's land, how can he, as a courtier, go against the will of the emperor.

Li Qiniang's whole body softened, and tears fell down. Her daughter, who has been precious for more than ten years, actually played to that cannibalistic place, thinking about this, Li Qiniang felt as if her heart had been dug up.

Mrs. Cao persuaded Li Qiniang and said: "Madam, now is not the time to be sad, you have to prepare well for the second girl, just let the second girl enter the palace, and then she will really be swallowed so that there will be no bones and slag."

Li Qiniang wiped her tears and immediately called Pingting. When Li Qiniang was surprised, Ping Ting's expression was very normal, and she was not as panicked as she expected.

Li Qiniang felt that something was wrong, and waved her hand to let everyone else go down, and there were only two women left in the room, Li Qiniang asked: "Hi Ting, if you are sad, cry out!" "I can still cry at home now, but I can't even suffer when I enter the palace in the future.

Ping Ting shook her head and said, "Mother, do you know why I want to study pharmacology?" "Ping Ting began to study pharmacology at the age of eight, but Ping Ting learned it secretly, not to mention outsiders, even Ting Zheng didn't know, only a few people knew.

Li Qiniang was stunned for a moment: "Isn't it your own favorite?" She was originally against it, but in the end, Yueyao said that if the child likes it, let her learn, and it will be beneficial after learning pharmacology.

Ping Ting shook her head and said, "That year, my aunt told me that with my appearance, it was possible to enter the palace. Therefore, my aunt asked me to study pharmacology, saying that even if I didn't enter the palace, I still learned something, and if I entered the palace, it would not be easy to fall into other people's calculations. Li Qiniang suddenly remembered that Yue Yao had said eight years ago that she would marry Ping Ting as soon as possible, and thought of this

, Li Qiniang was very sad in her heart. I knew earlier, I should have decided on someone for Ping Ting earlier, and I didn't have to go to the palace: "Auntie and grandma just told me earlier." ”

Ping Ting was very sensible and said: "My aunt is also guessing, and she can't confirm it, so she did it as a precaution." Mother, my aunt has been good enough for us. "If their family didn't have their aunt's help, they wouldn't know what it would be like. For Yueyao, all that Ping Ting has in her heart is gratitude.

Li Qiniang nodded: "Your father said that you will probably enter the palace in March or April next year, and there is still a year of hard work, so my mother has to prepare more things for you." ”

Thinking about it, Li Qiniang's head hurts when she thinks about it.

In fact, Ping Ting felt that she had entered the palace nine times out of ten because she couldn't get married, the reason is very simple, she is not the eldest sister Wanting, if no one stops her marriage, it will not be possible to delay the decision: "Mother, don't worry, there is still a year to prepare!" In the past few years, she has been preparing for entering the palace.

Li Qiniang has always been calm, but at this time she was a little flustered, and after thinking about it, she still felt that it would be better to discuss it with Yueyao, but she learned that Yueyao went to Zhuangzi.

Ping Ting said: "Mother, we have to rely on ourselves, and we can't rely on my aunt for everything." My aunt is the daughter-in-law of the An family, and the first thing she has to think about is the An family. ”

Li Qiniang quickly calmed down from the panic: "Okay, take advantage of this year, let's wait for a plan." Lian Tingzheng said that she couldn't rely on it, so she could only rely on herself.

After Yueyao came back, she knew about Ting Ting's entry into the palace. Because it was expected, Yue Yao was not too surprised. However, thinking about the place where the child went, he was still a little sad: "It's not a good thing to grow too well." "If Pingting is not so outstanding, where will she enter the palace.

An Zhichen smiled: "Blame your brother for being so good." It's a good thing that Pinting didn't have the reputation of a talented woman, otherwise she would be more in the limelight. "Women are too popular, in fact, it is not a good thing, that is, Yueyao, now that the limelight is too popular, it is also a trouble. Of course, Yueyao's troubles came from those painters, and everyone was not convinced that she could be respected as the best in the world. Although there are provocations from time to time, they are still within the range of bearing.

Yueyao felt that she should also do her part.

An Zhichen didn't object, and it was useless to object, when Yue Yao was uneasy, it made him uneasy. An Zhichen thought for a while and said, "Then we will do our best to choose a grandmother for her who is familiar with Chenggong." With this kind of experienced grandmother next to her, you can also suffer less losses. ”

Yueyao thought this was a good suggestion. But where is it so easy to find a mama who is capable, loyal and upright.

After Mingzhu found out, she found a grandmother, who had served by the Empress Dowager Taicheng before, and was also familiar with the situation in the palace.

Mingzhu said with a smile: "I don't know this, I thought it was your daughter who entered the palace!" "It's just a niece, so hard!

Yue Yao said: "You often enter the palace, can you still not know what the palace is like?" I can only do this for her, and what happens in the future is up to her. "In the affairs of the inner courtyard of the palace, outsiders can't interfere.

Mingzhu also agreed: "Otherwise, I begged my aunt to help me take care of the Buddha." "Mingzhu's aunt is now the Empress Dowager, and she is definitely the one who speaks in the palace.

Yue Yao shook her head and said: "I can shelter for a while, but I can't shelter for a lifetime, and the Empress Dowager Taicheng is also old, so why bother letting her worry about this." "Although the Empress Dowager Taicheng is still tough, after all, she is an old person, and she has to take care of it at this time, and she can't work hard.

Mingzhu said happily: "Don't worry, my aunt can take care of herself, and she also said that she will live to be a hundred years old." ”

Yueyao also hopes that the Empress Dowager Taicheng can live a long life.

A year has passed in the blink of an eye. Yue Yao knew that Emperor Cheng had given Ping Ting the position of Sanpin Jieyu, and felt that it was not bad, it was much better than being a concubine as soon as she entered the palace. is also because Jieyu is from the third grade, and her position is very high, so Wanting can bring three people into the palace. When the peach blossoms bloomed in April, Ping Ting brought a grandmother and two personal maids into the palace.

Li Qiniang held back her tears, watched her daughter get on the sedan chair, and after everyone left, Li Qiniang's tears couldn't be stopped anymore and fell in a hurry.

Seeing this, Brother Qing said: "Mother, the second sister can enter the palace to serve and present, that is a great blessing for our family. In the future, if you play a reborn Chengzi, then we ......" Brother Qing'er's next words were given back by Li Qiniang's cannibalistic eyes.

Brother Jing helped Li Qiniang and said, "Mother, let's go in!" ”

As soon as she entered the palace, she was Jieyu from the third grade, which has made many people red-eyed, and after serving the bed, she was promoted to a third-grade concubine. Now, it is no longer a red eye, but a thorn in people's eyes.

Li Qiniang got the news, and she didn't know whether to be happy or worried. The higher the position, the more convenient it is to act. will not be bullied arbitrarily, but it is too hateful to be promoted so quickly.

Seeing this, Mrs. Cao tried to divert Li Qiniang's attention: "Madam, it will be the third girl's ceremony soon, and after the ceremony, it is time to set the marriage of the third girl." "The second girl has already entered the palace, and the lady can't help it no matter how worried she is. The inner courtyard of the palace is not an ordinary person, and the mother's family can stand up after being wronged.

Li Qiniang nodded, when the youngest daughter's marriage is over, she has to start handling Brother Jing'er's marriage again, as for Brother Qing'er, Li Qiniang didn't think much about it, even Tingzheng looked like a baby pimple for Brother Qing'er, and Brother Qing'er's marriage definitely didn't have to worry about her.

Not long after Yiting and Luli, good news came from the palace that Pingting was pregnant, and she was pregnant for more than a month. Emperor Cheng was happy, and with a wave of his hand, the noble concubine was promoted to Zhaoyi from the second grade.

As a result, a few days after the child turned three months old, Li Qiniang got the news that Hi Ting's child was gone. Li Qiniang hurriedly handed over the sign and entered the palace to visit Pingting.

The person who had just had a miscarriage had a pale face and a very bad complexion, and when he saw Li Qiniang, Pingting's tears came.

Li Qiniang said in a panic: "You can't cry, people in confinement can't cry, if you cry, you will fall ill." Seeing such a daughter, Li Qiniang was also very sad. Before entering the palace, her daughter was like a flower and a bone-like daughter, and after only a few months, she was tortured to the point of being inhuman.

Only then did Ping Ting stop crying.

Li Qiniang waited for Ting to stabilize her mood before asking, "What's going on?" Why did you get aborted? ”

It's not that she doesn't regret it in the past two days: "I was too careless, I didn't expect them to be so bold." The child was three months old, and Wan Ting didn't want to fall into a pampered and proud name, so she went to ask for peace after the submission, and the concubine proposed that everyone go to the garden to enjoy the flowers. After submitting it, it was all agreed, and it was not easy for Ting to go. Ping Ting didn't expect that in front of the public, these people would dare to poison themselves and design themselves to fall down and fall into the fetus, and as a result, they launched a good woman who was not favored to take the blame.

Li Qiniangyu asked, "Can you find out who did it?" ”

Ping Ting shook her head: "It's not so easy to find out." However, I will always find out, and I will definitely make them pay for my child's life. ”

Li Qiniang felt uncomfortable, but she still comforted: "You don't think about anything now, the most important thing you play now is to take care of your body, you are still young, and you will definitely have it when you get well." ”

Ping Ting nodded and asked, "Mother, is my aunt in the capital?" "Actually, Ping Ting wants to see Yueyao a little.

Li Qiniang shook her head and said, "Your aunt is not in the capital now. Pingting, your aunt's son, even if she knew about you, she wouldn't enter the palace. ”

Yue Yao told her before hiring Ting into the palace that this was all she could help, and if there was anything to do after Ting entered the palace in the future, she would not help again. Before entering the palace, I helped hire Ting, which was the friendship of my aunt and nephew. If she helps her after Ting enters the palace, then she will definitely have to get involved in the battle in the harem. Yueyao is now a member of the An family, even for the sake of the child's future, she can't get involved in the battle in the backyard.

Ping Ting smiled bitterly, and was reluctant to talk about this topic again, because this topic was too heavy: "Yiting is also in tune, it's time to choose someone." ”

Li Qiniang waited until she got out of the palace, and the tears that she had been holding back came down. It's just that the child has fallen, no matter how sad it is, people still have to look forward.

Cao Pozi persuaded: "Don't be sad, madam, the second girl's eyes are like Mrs. you, I believe the second girl will be able to cheer up soon." ”

Li Qiniang nodded and said, "Well, I just hope it's as you said." ”

Not long after, Yiting's marriage was decided. And not long after Yiting's marriage was settled, Tingzheng also decided on Brother Qing'er's marriage. Tingzheng's original intention was good, and he wanted Brother Qing to have more capital, so he chose a famous lady for him. As a result, the daughter-in-law who passed through the door only respected Li Qiniang, a serious mother-in-law, and only had a face-saving relationship with Aunt Qiao, an aunt and mother-in-law, so the husband and wife had a conflict just after their marriage.

Li Qiniang can't care so much, her mind is now on Brother Jing'er's marriage. Brother Jing didn't want to say kiss so quickly: "Mother, let's talk about family affairs when I pass the township test!" In fact, Brother Jing wanted to say that he would try to talk about kissing after he had passed, but unfortunately he knew that it was impossible, so he retreated and only asked for a marriage after the township test.

Li Qiniang agreed to Brother Jing on her face, but in fact, she should not be ambiguous. When Li Qiniang fell in love with a family and wanted to settle the family affairs, Tingzheng told her that she wanted to tell her colleague's girl to Brother Jing'er

Li Qiniang is naturally unwilling, Brother Jing will be a condescendant in the future, what is the matter with this girl who marries a military general, but Ting Zheng did not compromise because he promised others.

If it was something else, Li Qiniang would not compete with Tingzheng, and Tingzheng would be upright. But this is a lifelong event related to his son, and marrying a wife who is not virtuous will harm his son for the rest of his life, and even harm her grandson, where will Li Qiniang compromise!

If Yueyao was here, Yueyao would definitely come forward, but unfortunately, Yueyao was out and hadn't been back for several years. There was no way, and in the end, Li Qiniang entered the palace and told Ping Ting about it. Ping Ting directly decided on the girl that Li Qiniang fancied, although Ting Zheng was not happy, but at this point, he could only compromise. However, after this incident, the relationship between the husband and wife began to deteriorate.

Li Qiniang didn't care at all, her daughter entered the palace as Emperor Cheng's concubine, and her son grew up and became married immediately, and she didn't do anything wrong, even if Tingzheng didn't like her, he couldn't help her. After enduring it for more than ten years, she has endured enough and doesn't want to endure it anymore.

In the autumn words of that year, Brother Jing was lifted. It didn't take long for the news that Ping Ting was pregnant. Li Qiniang hurriedly went to the incense to worship the Buddha, and begged the Bodhisattva to bless her daughter to be safe.

With the lesson of the last time, Ping Ting was extra careful this time, although she was also calculated several times, but she was all dodged by Ping Ting. A few months later, she gave birth to a healthy son. Emperor Cheng was very happy, and because of her meritorious work, she was promoted two levels in a row and was given the title of Concubine Qin.

Li Qiniang heard that the child had come to the world safely, and Ping Ting was fine, and her heart seemed to be unburdened: "It's good that the mother and son are safe." ”

After Brother Jing's daughter-in-law passed the door, Li Qiniang slowly handed over the housework, and when the daughter-in-law gave birth to a granddaughter, she didn't care about it at all, she took her granddaughter and enjoyed her interest in teasing her grandson every day. She didn't pay any attention to Tingzheng's growing indifference to her, she was satisfied with just playing her children smoothly. As for the love of husband and wife, it is all floating clouds for her
