In fact, fennel thinks too beautifully, where is it so easy to cultivate high-quality maids? What's more, in addition to cultivating their various skills, they must also be cultivated to be loyal to Washington. It's even harder.

Hua Tian heard that all the maids who came back this time were from Washington, and he frowned for this reason.

It is not easy for Washington to train a group of maids, but now that so many have been sent to the Zhenguo Mansion at one time, it is estimated that the supply of the places next to it will not be available, and I don't know if it will affect the overall situation.

In Hua Tian's opinion, it was too wasteful to send so many well-cultivated maids into the Zhenguo Mansion. When she arrived, she bought a few in the various gardens, but it was not a big deal. But now that someone has sent it, it's useless to talk about it.

She looked at Laiyi, "Although there are maids in the Shen family's house, I don't know when I will be able to climb up." You take the trouble to let Shen know that what she has suffered is caused by Fu. Remember, don't be too deliberate. ”

Laiyi handed a new stove to Hua Tian and nodded yes.

Hua Tian waved his hand and let them move around at will, without having to stay in the house.

She was willing to help Shen Liling this time instead of dismantling it, but she was actually selfish.

It stands to reason that Shen Liling is ruthless and wants to harm the child in her womb, with her temperament, she must make Shen Liling feel painful before she can relieve her hatred.

But Hua Tian has to make long-term plans, so he can only endure these hatreds for the time being. What's more, Shen Liling has such a poisonous plan, and it is very likely that she was provoked. hasn't figured out the person behind her yet, she needs Shen Liling's storage.

Shen Liling was stupid and irritable, different from the thoughtful people Hua Tian knew in the past. Dealing with those people is all serious. But Shen Liling is different, she can be cheeky to make trouble, this kind of attack may not be able to kill with one blow, but it can make people disturb.

After mastering her, there is one more means to deal with Mrs. Shi and Fu Yufang. Even, Hua Tian could not make a move, and let the Shen family toss, and it was very ugly.

At the beginning, wasn't it Mrs. Shi and the Fu family, instigating the Shen family to disgust her. This is just a tooth for a tooth!

In addition, if Shen is really suspended, it is inevitable to criticize Shen from the outside. But those with ulterior motives will definitely slander Hua Tian himself, saying that Hua Tian can't tolerate concubines. Not long after entering the door, the Zhenguo Mansion was torn apart.

Hua Tian still has to mix in the capital, and he must pay attention to his reputation. Even if these rumors can be clarified in the end, being slandered all year round will definitely leave a bad feeling in the hearts of some people.

Hua Tian didn't want to be caught and slandered, so she chose a method that was good for her reputation.

Although it is weak, kindness is a virtue, and in the Great Zhou Dynasty, weakness is not terrible, and if used properly, it can even be used as a sharp weapon. She is so kind, if she is bullied again, she will definitely be able to arouse the sympathy of many people.

Before Hua Tian got married, he was reluctant to have a weak appearance, so he even gradually adjusted the route he wanted to take. But after getting married, especially after she became pregnant, she found that weakness is actually a sharp weapon.

In addition, Shen Liling was suspended, and Hua Tian did not dare to guarantee whether the new third young lady could be used by himself. Before the child was born, and in the year after the birth, Hua Tian didn't want to make any big waves in the Zhenguo Mansion.

All kinds of considerations made Hua Tian decide to help Shen Liling temporarily.

As for whether Shen Liling will take revenge, Hua Tian believes that the letter of resignation hanging over Shen Liling's head will make Shen Liling weigh before doing something.

The fact that Shen Liling was almost suspended spread to everyone in the mansion knew about it.

While many people are laughing, they are also secretly restrained a lot.

The Duchess of Lao Zhenguo has already made her attitude clear, who wants to make trouble, don't blame her for not giving face.

While everyone was shocked, they also had to admit that the Duchess of Lao Zhenguo attached great importance to this new county lord of Anning.

Thinking of this, they gloated even more. Mrs. Shi wants her son to gain power and take over the Zhenguo Mansion, but I'm afraid it's just a sweet dream. Looking at the importance that the old town duchess attaches to the county lord of Anning, everyone knows that the old town and the old town must be very popular.

Lao Zhen Guogong never said anything about Zhong Li Saburo's divorce from his wife, and he never said anything about Lao Zhenguo's wife who personally beat his daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law, and also showed his attitude. He and the old Duchess of Zhenguo have the same idea!

Maybe Mrs. Shi can't see clearly, but they do. was beaten by her mother-in-law with a cane, and it is impossible to be the Duchess of Zhenguo! Her son can't be on the throne either!

It was the shock of the old Zhenguo Duchess who made a series of big moves that made the entire Zhenguo Mansion calm down for a long time.

After a few heavy snowfalls, it was soon Chinese New Year's Eve.

On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the whole town and government mansion were lively with dinner.

After eating the New Year's dinner, before it was dark, Hua Tian and Zhong Liche braved the heavy snow to return to their garden and sat by the window to enjoy the snow together.

Hua Tian thought of the Chinese New Year's Eve spent in Hua's house, and was a little sentimental. But feeling Zhong Liche sitting next to him, the sadness slowly disappeared again.

Zhong Liche could see that since eating the New Year's dinner, Hua Tian had become a little abnormal, and after a little thought, he guessed what Hua Tian was thinking.

He held Hua Tian's hand with his warm big hand, wrapped his other hand around Hua Tian's waist, and said softly in a low voice, "I am by your side, and I will accompany you until our hair is gray." ”

The sound of snow rattling. Zhong Liche's voice was not high, but in the sound of snow, not a word was missed to Hua Tian's ears.

Hua Tian's heart moved, only to feel that the flying snow in the twilight actually warmed his heart with a warmth.

She stretched out her hand, grabbed Zhong Liche's hand, leaned her head on Zhong Liche, and said with a smile, "Well, you accompany me, and our children will also accompany me." ”

The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the cold wind was howling.

But in the eyes of the two of them, they didn't feel the slightest bitterness and coldness, but only felt warm and beautiful.

In the past, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, it was necessary for Hua Tian to follow her, but this year, she didn't have to worry about it at all, the old Duchess of Zhenguo had already ordered someone to do it properly.

But Rao is like this, as a person of rank, she also had to go into the palace with Zhong Liche to personally pay New Year's greetings to the three giants in the palace.

The snow had stopped, and the snow on the streets had been cleared early in the morning. Hua Tian put on his dress and entered the palace in a carriage with Zhong Liche.

Fortunately, she was pregnant with a fetus in her womb, and she was with the old Duchess of Zhenguo, so she didn't have to wait for a long time to be received like last year.

The old sage summoned Zhong Liche, and after Hua Tian met the old queen mother and the queen, he followed the old princess out of the main hall and went to another hall.

This hall is a special place for the rest of the women who enter the palace to meet the audience, and there are already several people sitting in it, all of whom are princesses after marriage.

Hua Tian followed the old town duchess and went to greet a few princesses first, and then helped the old town princess find a place to sit down.

Princess Shuhua has always been good friends with Hua Tian, although in order to avoid suspicion, they no longer meet often, but their attitude is still very kind. She smiled and said something to Hua Tian, and ordered someone to bring hot tea to Hua Tian and the old Duchess of Zhenguo.

Princess Shumin also has a very good attitude towards Hua Tian, Hua Tian once helped the county lord of Duanning, and she has to show a friendly gesture no matter what.

In the face of the two princesses who expressed their affection, Hua Tian coped with it perfectly. This made the old Duchess of Zhenguo, who was sitting next to her, very satisfied, and nodded incessantly.

After that, many Lady Orders came one after another, and most of them sat opposite Hua Tian.

Soon Cheng Yun and a young beautiful woman followed Mrs. Yang to come, and she and the beautiful woman were on one side, helping Mrs. Yang Taishi, and happened to sit beside Hua Tian.

Hua Tian hurriedly and politely greeted Mrs. Yang and did enough superficial work.

Mrs. Yang Taishi was born with kind eyebrows, and when she saw Hua Tian, she was full of praise, and casually untied a bracelet from her hand and gave it to Hua Tian.

Hua Tian took the bracelet and thanked him, and then looked at Cheng Yun. At this glance, he was a little surprised, Cheng Yun looked at himself with undisguised resentment in his eyes.

Hua Tian couldn't remember for a moment how he offended Cheng Yun so much that he didn't hide his resentment, and he didn't react to Cheng Yun's gaze.

Cheng Yun saw that Hua Tian's eyes were bright, but he didn't seem to know what was going on, and he hated it even more in his heart.

She just wanted to say something, but she heard the beautiful woman next to her respectfully greet the Duchess of Lao Zhenguo, and suddenly came back to her senses.

Settle accounts or something, you can take your time. There are so many ladies here, she can't be rude, and she sets off her concubine in vain.

Because Mrs. Yang gave a bracelet to Hua Tian, Mrs. Lao Zhenguo smiled and also gave Mrs. Yang a bracelet to each of Mrs. Yang's two daughters-in-law.

Hua Tian looked at it and felt that he had lost something.

The only female relatives in the Zhenguo Mansion who can enter the palace with the old Zhenguo Duchess to ask for peace are her and Mrs. Shi.

Mrs. Shi is a step-room, and she was once beaten by the old Duchess of Zhenguo, she expected that entering the palace this time would make people laugh, so she said that she was sick and couldn't come.

Therefore, she is the only one following the Duchess of Laozhen at the moment.

There is only one person on her side who gives gifts to juniors like now, and she suffers a lot.

Mrs. Yang Taishi saw that the old Zhenguo Duchess took the bracelet in return, and said with a smile, "The Zhenguo Duchess doesn't have to give it to them, and they are not brides who have just entered the door." Liuniang is a new bride I will give, if I come next year, I will not give. ”

"I just happened to have it with me, and your two daughters-in-law are excellent, so I gave them away when I gave them a bracelet, it's not worth anything." The old Duchess replied with a smile.

After being polite, Mrs. Yang took her two daughters-in-law to meet Mrs. Yuanming, who was higher than her, and then sat down.

Although Cheng Yun had something on his mind, he wanted to sit next to Hua Tian and pinch him. But in the end, I didn't dare to be rude on this occasion, and sat in front of my mother-in-law and sister-in-law, so I sat down. Between her and Hua Tian, there is Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Yang Da Shao.

After sitting down, Cheng Yun's gaze swept over Hua Tian's abdomen, and the jealousy in his heart instantly surged up. She then cleared her throat and said with a smile, "The county lord of Anning is so blessed, and good news came when he just entered the door." ”

All the ladies in the hall were there, all talking in a low voice, and Cheng Yun suddenly raised his voice to speak, and they all looked at it for a while. Their eyes touched Hua Tian's bulging belly, and they all smiled slightly.

Whether they like Hua Tian or not, when they see a pregnant woman on the first day of the New Year, they always have to express their joy. After all, they also hope that there will be good news in their house sooner and add wealth to them.

"Hua Jiaguang does good deeds, accumulates virtue and does good, which is exactly what it should be." Duchess Kang Guo said slowly.

Hua Tian hurriedly said a few words of modesty, and said some good things.

Cheng Yun was stunned, and he was almost about to refute that Hua Tian was no longer a member of the Hua family when he married into the Zhenguo Mansion, but he soon realized that it was Duchess Kang Guo who spoke, and hurriedly swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

Duchess Kang Guo is not in oil and salt, she is very upright, and she has offended her, Cheng Yun can even predict how she will be mocked by Duchess Kang after she speaks.

Mrs. Lin Cheng said with a smile, "Liuniang doesn't need to be too modest, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother have been advocating virtue and doing good deeds for many years, and the Hua family is acting in line with the wishes of the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother." ”

Hearing Prime Minister Lin Cheng's wife mention the old queen mother and the queen, everyone was busy and praised a few words.

Princess Shuhua sat on the top and heard it, and praised Hua Tian with a smile, and her eyes swept Cheng Yun's face with a smile.

At this moment, Cheng Yun was even more difficult to speak, she secretly hated in her heart, and almost crushed the handkerchief in her sleeve.

She didn't understand why Hua Tian, such a little lady from other places, could be on an equal footing with herself, and even received more praise than herself!

"The Hua family's good deeds are indeed good deeds. Huada Hanlin's wife, the lady of the Zhou family, won a man in one fell swoop not long after entering the door, and now I heard that there is another one. One of the Lady Commandments said enviously.

As soon as these words came out, many people were amazed, and their tones were full of envy.

They are talking about Zhou Yuan, Zhou Yuan gave birth to Hualou last year, and many families are very envious. Unexpectedly, not long ago, there was good news in Washington, and Zhou Yuan was pregnant again.

Cheng Yun almost couldn't hold back the smile, she wanted Hua Tian to be uncomfortable, but she didn't want to hear everyone praise the Hua family.

Especially when she married into Mrs. Yang's mansion for a long time, since she had a miscarriage at the beginning, there has been no good news coming, and she hates people talking about happy pulses the most.

"The ancestral training of the Hua family is also interesting, and only those who have no children can take concubines if they are forty years old. Seeing that Huada Hanlin has never accepted a concubine, it is rare in Beijing. Cheng Yun said with a smile, "The county lord of Anning married into the Zhenguo Mansion, and now he has a body, but he doesn't see the general of the Zhenguo taking a concubine, could it be that he also abides by the ancestral teachings of the Hua family?" ”

On the one hand, she hoped to separate the old Zhenguo Duchess and Hua Tian, and on the other hand, she hoped that everyone would laugh at her and put pressure on the old Zhenguo Duchess.

Hua Tian finally knew why Cheng Yun hated himself so much that he didn't want to hide it, it turned out that he hated Zhongli for sending three beautiful concubines to Yang Erlang before.

Looking at Cheng Yun's resentful look, Cai Qing and the others seem to be in a good shape. But come to think of it, Cai Qing and the three of them were born in art, where is the means to deal with men that Cheng Yun, the daughter of the boudoir, can compare?

Although he guessed that Cheng Yun had suffered the secret loss of three beautiful concubines, Hua Tian was secretly happy in his heart. But in the face of all kinds of eyes, she still has to speak.

But before she could speak, Mrs. Lin Cheng spoke first, "I know that the ancestral training of the Hua family is not only aimed at the men of the Hua family, but also for the women of the Hua family. If you want to marry a daughter of the Hua family, you must comply with the regulations of the Hua family's ancestors who have no children before they can take a concubine. ”

"This is too demanding, no matter who the family, they all want people to prosper. It is good to have a concubine without children at forty, but it hinders helping her husband's family to spread its branches. Mrs. Cheng Cheng said with a frown. R1152
