Chapter 251: Brother-in-law
Chengping Marquis Mansion.
Song Shixiang has been calm since he came back.
This morning, not only did he fail to get close to the Marquis of Jingyuan, but he also lost face in front of Lu Qingrong again.
As a concubine, although he can use the guise of the Chengping Marquis Mansion outside, he will inevitably not be able to raise his head when he returns to the mansion.
As he got older, he began to think that if he could have an official position, no matter how big or small, it would always be better.
So he thought carefully about the people he knew around him, except for those people in the market who were not able to help him at all, they looked down on his noble children at all.
For this reason, he was quite angry, thinking that everyone was clearly half a catty and eight taels, why did they have an official position, or even just some small officials or idle positions that were donated, and they all began to squint at people.
Originally, he pinned his hopes on the Marquis of Chengping and the prince Song Shiji, but the two of them only cared about having fun, and they could delay doing things.
Just when Song Shixiang was about to give up, a pie finally fell from the sky, making him the brother-in-law of the Marquis of Jingyuan!
For Song Shixiang, and even for the entire Chengping Marquis Mansion, Jiang Xuan was a bit unattainable.
Especially this time, he also won a big victory in Mobei, and his identity is even more different from what it used to be.
Thinking of this, Song Shixiang recognized Jiang Xuan even more, and felt that he must be a noble person arranged by God for himself.
Holding back the unhappiness in his heart, Song Shixiang deliberately made himself appear gentle, and then returned to the inner room.
He Qingwan was embroidering clothes under the lamp.
There are only two embroidery girls in the Hou Mansion of Chengping, but they all put on a picky appearance, except for Mrs. Hou, the second lady and Mrs. Shizi, the rest of the people want to use them, it is called a struggle.
He Qingwan simply embroidered it herself.
Seeing this, Song Shixiang first said a few thoughtful words in the past, asking her not to get tired, and finally praised her female popularity.
He Qingwan is extremely useful, Song Shixiang rarely talks to her like this on weekdays, and it is inevitable that he will feel a little fluttering at this time.
But the more Song Shixiang spoke, the more energetic he became, and he actually said: "Your embroidery is better than the crooked bamboo leaf handkerchief in the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion, I don't know how many times!" ”
He Qingwan's worst thing was this, when he said this, his heart suddenly sank, but he didn't dare to reveal it on the surface.
Song Shixiang saw that the good words were almost finished, and hurriedly turned to the topic: "The Marquis of Jingyuan returned to the capital in triumph today, when do you think we will go to the door to congratulate?" ”
He Qingwan was stunned for a moment, what does this mean?
She is already married to Song Shixiang, whether the previous things are true or not, she can't have anything to do with Jiang Xuan anymore.
"This ...... What does that mean? He Qingwan really didn't understand.
"The prince is your brother-in-law, we are relatives, it's not good to keep silent, don't say anything?" Song Shixiang explained to her.
He Qingwan was completely stunned.
Song Shixiang actually thinks so?
In her heart, she quickly sorted out her mind and understood Song Shixiang's true purpose.
However, she knew better than anyone else in her heart that it was absolutely impossible for Lu Qingrong and Jiang Xuan to give themselves this face.
It turned out that he was very considerate of himself just now, all for this.
knew that Song Shixiang was not a good-tempered person, and she didn't plan to tell him the truth immediately for a while.
"The prince has just returned to Beijing, and I think there are still many things to be busy with, so let's not bother." He Qingwan hoped to fool the past.
Where did she know Song Shixiang's persistence.
When Song Shixiang heard this, he inevitably beat the drum in his heart, could it be that He Qingwan and Mrs. Shizi are not close?
As everyone knows, the relationship between He Qingwan and Lu Qingrong is not close!
Song Shixiang self-righteously thought that it must be the matter of Na Pazi that made the two sisters separate. But in his usual understanding, this is a trivial matter at all. In his eyes, women should be virtuous and virtuous, and other things such as thoughts and emotions need to be abandoned. On the contrary, it is not an exaggeration to be amorous, but a beautiful conversation.
Now that He Qingwan is married to herself, and she has not taken away a penny from the prince, the relationship between her and Lu Qingrong should be easily eased.
Song Shixiang thought so, and immediately persuaded: "If you are worried that Mrs. Shizi will have a relationship with you because of the matter of Na Pazi, you should take this opportunity to ease up!" ”
He Qingwan was anxious, and he didn't dare to tell him the truth directly.
She really hesitated for a while before she spoke: "Her mother and my father were reconciled and separated back then, and they had some resentment against our He family......
He Qingwan felt that saying this would not not lose the face of He Fu, but also made Song Shixiang understand the general situation.
However, in fact, Song Shixiang had heard of these old stories for a long time.
Wherever he hangs out on weekdays, there is the place where there is the most gossip in the market.
The story of Yin Pingru's "remarrying Gaomen after separation" is really nothing new to him.
And he also took it for granted that Lu Qingrong, as the oil bottle that Yin Pingru brought to Lufu, his situation in Lufu can be imagined. Now that he married into the Hou Mansion in the name of Chongxi, by mistake, the Marquis of Jingyuan not only did not afford to be ill, but he was really cured, and now he is even more proud of his military exploits and full of glory.
Shouldn't Mrs. Shizi take this opportunity to take advantage of her own sister?
You know, He Qingwan is the only sister who is related to her by blood!
Song Shixiang has always believed that women are subordinate after all, and in addition to obeying the guidelines of their husbands as wives, the only thing that should be paid attention to is their identity background and blood origin.
"What's this! That was her mother's own business. You are a father after all! Song Shixiang disagreed.
He Qingwan's embarrassment became more and more obvious, so he had to remind him: "Don't forget, Mrs. Shizi, you changed your surname to Lu very early!" ”
Song Shixiang couldn't help but be stunned.
He Qingwan gave him the impression that he had always been submissive and extremely docile.
At this time, seeing her so persistent, I had a faint bad premonition in my heart.
If you really can't speak at all in front of Mrs. Shizi, then what's the use of marrying her!
Song Shixiang was just secretly worried about this, because there was still a glimmer of hope, and he did not show anger towards He Qingwan.
"Since they are sisters, they must not be divided because of these inconsequential people and things! Think about it again. ”
After Song Shixiang finished speaking, he was really not in the mood to stay for a long time, so he left the inner room and went to the maid's house.
At this time, He Qingwan only had one feeling, that is, relaxation.
As for things like Tongfang and her aunt, she has been used to it since she was a child, and she thinks it's normal.
Including the days when he lived in the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion, Jiang Ke rarely even went to Qiu Jinting's house, and it was not as good as the harmonious relationship between his father and mother in the He Mansion.
As for the situation in the Yu Courtyard, although she doesn't know about it, she has seen Cai Mei and Cai Lian, and if the female dependents of the entire Jingyuan Marquis Mansion are counted, it is definitely a top beauty, if Jiang Xuan has nothing to do with them, He Qingwan will not believe it if he is killed......
At this time, in the Yu Courtyard, Lu Qingrong and Jiang Xuan were falling into an embarrassing atmosphere.
Jiang Xuan's side was still struggling with Lu Qingrong's sentence "It's inconvenient to check today", what does this mean?
Lu Qingrong was amused by the inexplicable expression on his face, thinking that he was so unaware of the woman's affairs, his heart became inexplicably happy, and the anxiety caused by the sudden arrival of the small day was instantly swept away.
In fact, Jiang Xuan was just a little slower to react.
It's not like he's completely ignorant.
After all, staying with Sun Yiming every day, the things he learned were not ordinary......
When he reacted, he coughed lightly and said, "Then check it in a few days!" ”
After saying that, Jiang Xuan did it himself, tightened his neckline, and straightened his bedclothes, naturally took off his shoes, lay on the inside of the rosewood stepping bed, and patted the vacant space outside to Lu Qingrong.
"It's not early, since you're not feeling well, you should rest early."
Jiang Xuan's movements and tone were extremely smooth, as if he had always been like this, and he had never been out for most of the year.
Lu Qingrong was a little unaccustomed to it, looked down at the water-pink soft silk bedgown on his body, wrapped himself tightly, and then lay down with some hesitation.
At the same time, she was still a little strange in her heart, the few times she slept together before was a little different from today, Jiang Xuan was lying outside, and she was inside.
However, as soon as she lay down, her hair barely touched the pillow, and was scooped up by the man next to her.
Lu Qingrong almost exclaimed.
Jiang Xuan's movements were surprisingly fast, picking her up and turning around, only staying on him for a moment, and the positions of the two of them changed.
When Lu Qingrong came back to his senses, he found that he was already lying inside.
Seeing that Jiang Xuan seemed to be throwing a hot potato, and just threw himself inside, Lu Qingrong subconsciously frowned, as if it was just to let Jiang Xuan see his dissatisfaction.
How did she know that just the momentary intimate touch just now almost made Jiang Xuan's self-control fall short.
At this time, in Jiang Xuan's eyes, Lu Qingrong's frowning expression was extremely moving.
He even thought of simply turning over and turning his back to her, but he was afraid that if he annoyed her, he would poke himself casually, and it would be really over.
So although Jiang Xuan was entangled in his heart, his body was motionless, just looking at Lu Qingrong like this, trying to stabilize his heart.
Lu Qingrong seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly his eyebrows stretched, and he smiled in his heart, but he also knew how to stay inside honestly, waiting for Jiang Xuan to calm down.
After almost half a pillar of incense, Jiang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and came over and hugged her gently.
Lu Qingrong nestled quietly in his arms.
These days, Lu Qingrong is alone, and he has to toss and turn for a long time almost every day before he can fall asleep.
And today, surrounded by Jiang Xuan's warmth, the first day of the most violent little day was even gone.
But in an instant, she fell asleep in this warm embrace.
Jiang Xuan looked at her eyelashes, lying quietly on her eyes, trembling slightly with the ups and downs of her breathing, and lost her mind for a while before closing her eyes with a smile. R1152
