Chapter 21: Mother
The elders asked her to learn from her mother, so she obediently obeyed and studied seriously every day when she got up early and went to bed late.
What the grandmothers teach, she also obediently learns, and she has to practice hard in private.
Therefore, her learning progress on weekdays is naturally faster than that of other sisters, and her every move is like having a ruler to measure the same norms.
By the time Xue Wuniang was eleven years old, she could be called a model of a lady in Yanbei's boudoir, and then won the blue eyes of the elders.
Coupled with her noble status as a concubine, since she passed her tenth birthday, her grandfather, grandmother and uncle father have positioned her future as the princess of Yanbei Palace.
Since then, her upbringing at home has become stricter, and she is easily unable to go out to meet guests on weekdays, and there is no time to play.
The limited opportunity to go out is also with her grandmother and mother to participate in the flower banquet held by Yanbei Palace, so that Xue Wuniang can show her face and show herself in front of Princess Yanbei more.
But even so, by the time Xue Wuniang was fifteen years old and Xu, Yanbei Wangfu still did not reveal any intention of getting married.
And the Xue family has been planning for so many years, hoping to get closer to the relationship with the Yanbei Royal Mansion through family affairs, and at this time, they are even more unwilling to give up easily, even if there is a noble son who is in the right household, they are all rejected by the elders of the Xue family one by one.
Although, the rule of these families has always been that most of the daughters of high-ranking families start to talk about marriage at the age of twelve or thirteen, and they say that they will marry at the age of sixteen or seventeen.
If you haven't decided on a marriage yet, then I'm afraid you should be called an "old girl".
Xue Wuniang, who has become an "old girl", naturally does not want to marry herself to Yanbei Wangfu as urgently as her elders.
After all, the prince of Yanbei, cough cough, to put it mildly, is a sick and weak body who will fall ill at two ends in three days.
If she really gets married, not to mention whether she can get the love of the prince of Yanbei who has never met after marriage, I am afraid that in a few years, she will be a widow.
Of course, the elders of the Xue family would not think so much about her, after all, even if she became a widow in the past few years after marrying, she was still the princess of Yanbei Palace.
If Xue Wuniang is lucky enough to conceive a child in the past few years while the son is alive, and give birth to a son to the prince of Yanbei when the time comes, won't the Xue family become the mother of the future king of Yanbei? Why worry about the family not prospering?
After all, although the king of Yanbei holds great power, he only has one wife for Princess Yanbei now, and there is no side concubine room in the house, not even a maid in the room.
And Princess Yanbei only gave birth to a son and a daughter, so even if the son is weak and sickly and does not live long, King Yanbei has no second choice.
Xue Wuniang had heard the elders of the family vaguely mention it once or twice, it is said that this prince was a healthy baby when he was born, but when he was one year old, it is said that he was poisoned by the assassin sent by Emperor Chongzhen, who was quite jealous of the power of the Yanbei Palace, although at that time, the palace invited countless famous doctors and consumed a variety of precious medicinal materials, and barely saved the life of the prince.
From then on, the prince of Yanbei became a sick and weak body that almost collapsed as soon as the wind blew.
I always get sick more than a dozen times a year, not to mention, and from time to time my life is in danger, almost hanging my life by drinking medicine.
There are some old families in Yanbei that are not right with Yanbei Wangfu, and they have not discussed it behind their backs, saying that it is because the King of Yanbei killed too much in the early years, created a lot of killings, and God was kind and punished, so it will come to the point where there is no successor to the palace now.
But even so, over the years, most of the Yanbei family wanted to marry their daughters to the palace.
Their idea was just the same as the Xue family's idea, to exchange the happiness of a daughter for the opportunity to marry the Yanbei Palace.
In their eyes, it's a sure-fire deal.
However, what is strange is that over the years, although Princess Yanbei has often invited the ladies of the noble family to participate in the flower banquet and poetry banquet in the palace, and she is full of praise for Xue Wuniang and other ladies, she has never revealed the intention of marrying any of them to the palace and being her daughter-in-law.
Thinking of this, Rong Yunhe thought of his sixteen years of tragic life in his previous life.
When Xue Wuniang was halfway through the age of fifteen, she used more ice because of the cold in summer, but she contracted the wind cold, and ended her sixteen-year life after lingering on the sickbed for half a year.
In the half year that I was sick in bed, it was really painful, my consciousness was blurry every day, sometimes awake and sometimes asleep, my limbs were not under my control, and I could only let the maids and grandmothers pour countless bitter medicines and supplements into themselves every day.
Occasionally, when she was a little better, she could sit in front of the window of her bedroom and look out at the view of the garden, but she would be interrupted from time to time by the elders who came to visit her.
Grandmother, aunt and father, every time they come, they will say a lot of truths, so that they can recuperate with peace of mind, and when they are well, they can marry to Yanbei Wangfu as a princess.
Even the eldest sister, who has always loved herself and is married, will comfort herself so much when she goes home to visit her.
And the dignified and gentle mother, because she has been taking care of herself who is sick in bed, has lost so much weight that she only has a handful of bones left in the last few days of Xue Wuniang's life.
Speaking of which, in the sixteen years of her life in her previous life, the only thing she cherished was her mother.
In the entire Xue family, only the mother will sincerely plan for herself, and the mother is also the only elder who opposes marrying into the Yanbei Palace.
But in this era when the husband is as big as the sky, the mother's opinion has long been ignored by the father who wants to be the future father-in-law of Yanbei Wang, and even for this reason, the father has snubbed the mother for a long time, and every day in addition to sleeping in the study is spending the night at the aunt's, his concubines and concubines will also laugh at themselves and their mothers.
