Chapter 22: Another Would-Be Concubine

Yang Xiaoniang was pampered by the family, she was very poor when she was a child, but since her brother came out, she eats minced meat every day, wears silk, and her parents at home will never let her get involved in housework, which is definitely raised by a young lady, and because of this, she wants to marry more and more to a good family, but the commander of the guard will never let her marry into such an official position, but the official government has a noble concubine who has a record, but she thought it was in the bag, but she didn't expect to be cut off.

She glanced at Mrs. Song with disdain, "Don't be so complacent, let's wait and see!" "Anyway, throw up your sleeves and leave.

Mrs. Song smiled bitterly and said to the other party, "Sister Fang, don't laugh, how could I have wanted to do such a thing before, but now I can't." ”

Fang Bingbing patted her shoulder with his hand to comfort her.

In this way, Mrs. Song and Fang Bingbing had nothing to talk about, so they said goodbye, but after Mrs. Song left, someone came to find Fang Bingbing again, it turned out to be Yang Wu, the mother of Yang Xiaoniang, Yang Wu is much more weird than her daughter, looking at the black and thin appearance is inconspicuous, but the exit is very polite.

"Just now my ignorant daughter came to me, I knew and scolded her, you newcomers don't know much about me, I'm most afraid of arguing with others, and this daughter is like this."

Fang Bingbing hurriedly said, "Where, where." ”

Yang Wu said again, "My daughter is also old, but her mind is like a little girl, I hope you don't care." "Yang Wu doesn't agree with his daughter to be a concubine for Wei Commander Envoy, just looking for his daughter to marry into a solid family, which is why the Hu family found the Yang family, but the Yang family did not agree, the Yang family has a son as a soldier, even if you marry a general banner, why bother to be a concubine, Yang Wu was afraid of ruining her daughter's reputation, so she came over and said to Fang Bingbing, after all, Song Da Niang is going to Wei Commander's Mansion soon, Yang Wu is very afraid to offend.

Fang Bingbing smiled, "Where would you think so much." ”

Yang Wu saw that although Fang Bingbing was wearing a cotton skirt, she looked very good, she looked better than Mrs. Song, she had her own style of speaking and acting, and the house was very clean and warm, so she couldn't help but have a good impression of her.

"I didn't know much about you before, did your family and the Zhan family know each other before?"

Fang Bingbing said, "Those who are in exile together, only our family has a good relationship with Zhanxiang next door, and the others don't know each other very well. ”

Yang Wu seemed to mention it inadvertently, "Has this Zhanxiang ever been married?" "I don't care if the family is exiled, at least the family used to be the young master of a serious official eunuch family, and listening to Zhan San's grandmother, all the silver in the second room of the Zhan family is in Zhanxiang's hands, and Zhanxiang himself is good-looking, although he is only thirteen years old, but the force value is not low, such a promising child, Yang Wu will naturally not let go.

Fang Bingbing shook his head, "I don't know about this yet!" She knew in her heart that she was here to show off.

Yang Wu saw the two children playing happily next to him, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and said in his heart If you don't know that Zhanxiang will put her own brother in your house, but she has always been a scheming woman, so she smiled pretendically, and then put down the ten eggs she brought over, and then went out.

Fang Bingbing saw that they were all alive, there was meat, eggs and sugar, there was no need to worry about cooking today, the two little ones were familiar, and they didn't know what they were whispering, and as soon as Fang Bingbing got closer, they laughed happily again, but they didn't say it anymore, Fang Bingbing couldn't let these two children be idle, so he asked them to come over and wipe the bean sprouts together, the bean sprouts were about to start in a few days, Fang Bingbing was very excited.

Brother Yao is like Fang Bingbing's little tail, naturally he happily followed, while Brother Yu went to play with his wooden whistle, which Cheng Yang brought back to him, and he cherished it very much.

Even after many years, Zhanyao remembered that the most alive was in front of Fang Bingbing.

And Cheng Yao's wife Lin and daughter Cheng Mei stepped on the ox cart and planned to go to the town, Cheng Mei was quite nervous, after all, she was a big girl and naturally couldn't let go of men's affairs, but Lin was different, she not only had a daughter but also a son, if her daughter could make a little contribution to her son's future and she could enjoy it, this would naturally be a good thing.

Lin instructed, "Mother can't bear to be like your mother, living in a dirty house, eating coarse grains, doing housework, and farming, I have inquired yesterday, all command the adult but only the year of establishment, his father is still the governor of the northwest, you look at the Song family, marrying a guard commander is like entering the palace, and the one in front of him still has a child, but the wife of the commander is a hen who can't lay eggs, this time the mother will help you get your wish." ”

Cheng Mei couldn't help blushing when she thought of the commander, it was rare that although he was in the army, he was very literate, but now after listening to Lin's instructions, he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

Lin and Cheng Mei wandered for most of the day, first went to the silk village to buy two pieces of cloth, and then went to the jewelry store to buy a plum blossom hairpin.

After buying these things, Lin reluctantly bought a purse and fifty eldest sons, and then pulled Cheng Mei to a household, the door soon opened, it was a young woman who opened the door, Lin pulled Cheng Mei to give her a blessing, and the young woman gave her a false hand, "Where can you be like this!" ”

After Lin and Cheng Mei entered, the young woman led them to turn a corner, and then they arrived at the old lady's residence, this old lady is not really an old lady, but the mother of Wu Guilin, who commanded the adult, because she was old, she was raised, and now she is also living the life of an old feudal monarch, four or five girls are waiting, and the daughter-in-law is wearing Songjiang cloth that ordinary households cannot wear.

Mrs. Qi was enjoying the little girl helping her beat her legs, and she heard her daughter-in-law waiting outside the curtain, so she asked the little girl to go out to greet her, and the Lin family came in with Cheng Mei a little apprehensively, anyway, Mrs. Everyone's wife is now coming over to laugh in front of a slave.

Cheng Mei came in and saluted, this old lady Qi was very satisfied, she was the most obedient person in the governor's house, she smiled and asked the girl to take the embroidery stool over, "I really like this child, but I can't be bullied by dogs in Pingyang." ”

It was so easy to speak, the Lin family was also quite surprised, and the old lady Qi also had her own reasons, why she was raised by Rong was also forced to be like this by Wu Guilin's wife Hu family, the Hu family was born in the Bofu, but he was jealous, and he had no body, and the governor's wife was also the mother-in-law of the Hu family, and the concubine was also a person who was innocent and knowledgeable, although this Miss Cheng was exiled, but the rules of the family looked better than the Hu family, and the old lady Qi was naturally satisfied.

Lin wiped away his tears, "I'm going to trouble you more in the future." ”

Mrs. Qi did not hide her selfishness, and naturally told everything about the situation in Wu Guilin's mansion, Cheng Mei was originally from a big family, and she was very good at memorizing this relationship, and she quickly remembered that she was asking for help, so she naturally said a lot of good things, and only saw that it was late before she went back with the Lin family.

Old Madam Qi sighed when she saw them leaving, "The second boy is still so dead-eyed. "These two boys are talking about Wu Guilin, because of the second line, so she affectionately calls the second boy.

Her daughter-in-law sighed, "If you say anything else, let's just say that there is no son in the long room, and the uncle has hurt his body again, and now he is counting on it all in the second room, if he can give birth to a son, it will be good for everyone." ”

Mrs. Qi is a person who has experienced things, "I see that this girl is from a prestigious family, not to mention now, even in the past, it was okay for people to marry into the mansion, and the future of people like us is tied to the second master, hoping that this girl can be favored by the second master and become a man in one fell swoop." ”

Fang Bingbing doesn't know anything about these things at present, she is stir-frying, braised pork, fried vegetables, a green pepper scrambled egg, Fang Bingbing put four eggs, and made a sake lees soup, the four dishes are also a lot, her rice is still simmering in the pot just right, and let the two boys wash their hands, she picked up the needle and thread and began to help Brother Yao make clothes, no matter what, such a child is always pitiful.

Cheng Yang and Zhanxiang came in together, Zhanxiang only looked at his younger brother, although he was still wearing the clothes he came over in the morning, but he looked in good spirits, and he didn't know what he was playing with Brother Yu, he only saw him, so he happily pounced, Zhanxiang picked up his younger brother and asked him what he was doing all day.

Brother Yao looked very excited, "The sugar peanuts are delicious, they are all made by my mother." He called Fang Bingbing his mother, Zhanxiang was a little helpless, his younger brother was young, and his father was out of tune, and it was also appropriate for Brother Yao to have admiration, and this Fang family had a virtuous face that made people want to be close when they looked at it, so they didn't go out of their way to correct him.

Fang Bingbing was also busy entertaining guests, "Coarse tea and light rice, everyone sit down and eat." She went to the kitchen next to her to serve the meal, Brother Yao hurriedly got off his brother Zhanxiang, and then followed Fang Bingbing to the kitchen, Cheng Yang looked a little surprised, but in the end, they are all people who are quite deep in the city, and they will not say it on their lips.

Although this meal is not as exquisite as what I ate in Jiangning at that time, the taste is also excellent, after Fang Bingbing brought the rice, let the two children eat together, Zhanxiang wanted to feed his younger brother, but he never thought that this child was also stubborn and had to eat by himself, while Brother Yu was already able to eat by himself with chopsticks.

Zhan Xiang didn't say anything and was very grateful in his heart, he knew that the Fang family didn't value his money, and he heard that Fang Bingbing's mother's family was still a big family in Lin'an and had not been defeated, and he could be cultivated like his own child, he was relieved, and he would have no worries when he went out in the future, which was what he was most pleased with.
