Chapter 358: Three Aunts and Six Mothers-in-law

The banquet in the palace is a high-powered, well-funded prince like King Qi, which is naturally very extravagant. And the population of the palace is also quite large, in addition to Qingqing, the other children of the king of Qi have become relatives, although the daughters are not here for the festival at this time, but the sons have a lot of wives and concubines, and each child is complete, so there are eight tables in the lobby.

Because there is no princess, the king of Qi has a single seat, and the next step is a seat for several side concubines, Qingqing and Lin Yu have a seat because they are unmarried daughters, and there is a seat for several brothers of Qingqing on the opposite side, and then the next seat is their daughter-in-law, the boys and girls have another seat, and then they are the concubines of their brothers, and they have two tables.

Because of Qingqing's complaints, when Lin Yu and Qingqing came over, although it was not the latest, it was not too early, at least King Qi had already come. Seeing Qingqing and Lin Yu coming side by side, King Qi showed a loving smile on his face, "In a blink of an eye, it's been another year, my Qingqing is also a big girl, and Xiaoyu's clothes are also good-looking, and the lining is more and more beautiful." ”

Lin Yu was wearing a smoky purple satin jacket, with a red white cloud pattern brocade skirt underneath, a goose-yellow silk silk tied around her waist, and a white jade pendant on the silk, covered with a red lotus pattern gold and silver filigree embroidered brocade cloak, which was a gorgeous and bright dress. However, her dress is not very conspicuous, and under the current festival, everyone is dressed very formally, and they also choose bright colors in their dresses, trying their best to dress up beautifully.

Of course, King Qi saw it in his eyes, so he praised it, but his attention was more on his own daughter. Because Qingqing's appearance is slightly inferior, although Lin Yu is not particularly dressed up. But it still inevitably covered up the brilliance of Qingqing a little. King Qi naturally wouldn't blame Lin Yu for this, but he had some small regrets, how good it would be if Qingqing also had such an outstanding appearance. She is more like her mother, and she has not inherited his handsome appearance.

You must know that Lu Dao Qingqing's age is not young, and she can be regarded as an older leftover girl in ancient times, and the marriage cannot be delayed any longer, but it will be difficult to find a suitable person for a while. It's just that the current situation is unstable, and if you choose an inappropriate in-law, something will happen in the future. What to do? The marriage of King Qi's third daughter also reminded him that he should be more careful to find a son-in-law than a daughter-in-law, otherwise he would be the daughter of a prince. It's just as hard as it gets.

Lin Yu looked up and saw a faint gloom on his face, although he didn't know what sorrow King Qi remembered, he also half changed the topic, half vaguely jokingly persuaded him. "Father. When will you pay the New Year's money, you are the respect of the prince, and you must not be stingy. ”

When King Qi heard what she said, he breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about it, he was the prince of the prince, and Qingqing was the lord of the county, at most, he would lower the standard in the family world. Can't you find a suitable son-in-law?

Looking down and seeing Lin Yujing's smiling eyes, he suddenly felt that his righteous daughter did not seem to be as gentle and innocent as she looked on her face. While thinking about it, he couldn't help but smile on his face, "You are indispensable, speaking of which, you are a rich man, and your brothers and sisters are not as rich as you, do you still care about this New Year's money?" ”

"No accumulation of steps, no thousands of miles, no accumulation of small streams, no long river, Jinshan is also accumulated little by little. Besides, the New Year's money has a special meaning, and I hope to get some blessings from my father, and next year will be smooth and proper, and I will make another profit. Lin Yu said with a smile.

Qingqing also smiled, "You have many reasons, a money fan is a money fan, and you have found so many words to confess yourself." ”

Lin Yu smiled, "You dare to say that you don't love money at all?" ”

Qingqing was about to speak, when an arrogant mezzo-soprano interjected, "A little girl, it's really embarrassing to say that she loves money so bluntly, too, after all, there is no tutor." ”

When Lin Yu and Qingqing heard this, their faces didn't look very good at that time, what did they mean? The two turned their heads to look, and sure enough, it was King Qi's side concubine Lu, with a straight face, looking at the two of them proudly.

In fact, between a few people's jokes, their words are naturally not so serious, which is also normal. Lin Yu originally looked at King Qi and didn't seem to be in a very good mood, so he said half-jokingly, who would have thought that this lord would attack Lin Yu with such words, and even attacked Qingqing.

However, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and Lin Yu knows that she is a righteous daughter again, and it is really a question whether to refute the past. Qingqing didn't have so many scruples, she had a more refreshing personality, and she didn't have much forgiveness in her mouth, not to mention that it was the Lu family who took the initiative to find trouble, so she immediately glared back.

What do you mean by that? Even if Xiaoyu loves money, he is also a gentleman who loves money, and he takes it in a good way. If you want to talk about greed for money, who doesn't know which family in the capital of Ludao doesn't even want face and conscience for money, for the wealth of the Zhang family in Shuzhong, what the emperor pointed out, the wife who has kept filial piety and has no return must also be abandoned? Qingqing sneered twice and said, "It's not right for itself, and there is still a face to say about us." ”

It's really a joke, if it was another side concubine who said Qingqing, it would be difficult to refute, who in this capital doesn't know what kind of thing the Zhang family did for money! If Yin Susu is not Yin Susu, but another really docile woman, she has no mother, no children, and was abandoned by her in-laws, I'm afraid she won't be able to live. It's just that God has long eyes, what the Lu family drove out of Lu was a piece of gold and jade, and Zhang Wan'er, who married in, was short-tempered and didn't have many brains, but in terms of temperament, it was simply a stone of a thatched house, even if she added the money background behind her, it was just a pebble.

The Lu family originally looked at these two people unpleasantly, and because Lin Yu was punished under house arrest, he was not angry in his heart, he only cared about it for a while, and he didn't think much about it. At this time, she was snatched by Qingqing with a sneer, and her face turned unpleasant, but she could barely distinguish two sentences, after all, she was only born in the Lu family, and now she is the concubine of King Qi, and what the Lu family does does not have a lot to do with her.

"You're just talking about the Lu family, what does it have to do with me?"

is waiting for you here, who would have thought that you would really live up to expectations, hearing her words, Qingqing said mockingly, "It really has nothing to do with you, the Zhang family's money will not be sent to you." I've heard people say a long time ago, in order to repay you for helping to say something, Zhang Jiake sent you a lot of good things, isn't that what you wear on your head? ”

Concubine Lu is wearing a brilliant eight-treasure three-headed golden phoenix hairpin on her head, the pearls and gems on it are each the size of a finger, and a dozen of them can almost dazzle people's eyes, and it is the most valuable jewelry among the ladies here. Speaking of which, such a grade of gemstone is not something she can use, and she wants to be a concubine, but because it is only a three-headed phoenix, it does not exceed the quantity, and there is no concubine in the Qi Palace's mansion to pursue her, so that's it.

When she got this eight-treasure golden phoenix hairpin, she also showed it off, and her origin was not hidden, at that time, where did she know that the king of Qi would recognize a daughter, at this time, she was speechless by Qingqing, and she couldn't find anything to say for a while. She wasn't a particularly shrewd person in the first place, how could a particularly shrewd person have the audacity to do such a thing?

Concubine Lu looked at the sides with some help, and the other two concubines naturally would not help her offend Qingqing and Lin Yu, even if she didn't fall into the well, the three concubines had a low position, and they didn't intervene.

Qingqing pursed her lips, "You can only talk about others when you are upright, this is your original words, and I will return it to you now." is still a side concubine, I look at it as a person who specializes in selling camels in the six countries, but she is a good third aunt and six women, but she has no conscience, and almost no one will help Mrs. Yin, who is forced by the Lu family, to leave. ”

The relationship between Concubine Wang and Concubine Lu was not good, and she smiled even more at this time, "The county lord is really right, other gentlemen love money and take it in a good way, and some people are even eaten by dogs for money." ”

The straight Concubine Lu Fang's face was red and white for a while, but King Qi listened to them chattering below for a long time, and said with some displeasure, "Okay, do you still want to quarrel under the big festival?" Lu, I remember I warned you once, you'd better be smarter, Qingqing, Concubine Lu is your concubine after all, you have to respect her a little. ”

This is a stick on both sides, but the severity is a little different, Qingqing pouted, and wanted to say something, but Lin Yu quietly pulled her below, and she didn't say anything. Lu wanted to sue again, saying that Qingqing didn't respect her enough, but unfortunately he was scolded back by King Qi mercilessly.

"Qingqing doesn't respect you? You are a side concubine, and you still want to be respected? King Qi said indifferently, "And I don't think she is wrong, it's a pity to be the princess because of your talent, the third aunt and the sixth wife are still serious and suitable for you, and they will do some indiscriminate things." I won't talk about the past, but now are you right? ”

The majesty of King Qi in the palace is not small, not only the Lu family stopped his mouth, but he was almost said to cry, but because in front of everyone, it was a big festival, so it was not good to shed tears. Even the others were silenced, and so many people in the entire lobby were quiet for a while, and it took a while to slowly recover.

"It's good that you pulled me, maybe my father will scold me too." After a while, the turmoil of this matter was over, and Qingqing whispered to Lin Yu, "I have never seen my father lose such a big temper." ”

"You are his favorite daughter, of course I wouldn't have lost such a temper with you." Lin Yu smiled, "However, in fact, you don't have to speak at all this time, if you don't open your mouth first, I'm afraid that my father-in-law will say a few words about her at that time." Of course, it won't be so heavy, but if you talk about her, you also have two points. ”

Qingqing smiled indifferently, "I have a different temper from you, you have a plan and then move, I don't care so much, at least vent it refreshingly first, besides, after my father said so, I'm afraid that she will be very honest for the rest of the time." ”

Lin Yu's ears were sharp, and he could hear the whisper of Concubine Lu who was going out of the house at this time, and said lightly, "This may not be, I think her temperament is like Zhang Wan'er, the fire is up, she is completely rational, and she doesn't care about things." ”

"Not to mention her, how is Zhang Wan'er doing? Heard you last say that she hasn't had a good time lately? (To be continued......)
