Chapter 251: The Wife and Concubine
After supper, they all sat down in the courtyard and talked.
"It's really been a long time since I've eaten a meal made by my cousin herself, and it's really beautiful this day! I don't want to go back. Ling Ziye sighed, his eyes still gently projected on Li Xin's body.
Li Xin felt his gaze, only to feel that it was very cold, and goosebumps were about to get all over his body. "If my cousin likes it, stay longer!"
Wen Hao also said: "Yes! Brother Ziye, let's stay a few more days! ”
"It's definitely not okay to stay longer, I still have a lot of things to do! At most, I can stay for a few days, and I have to go back quickly. ”
It didn't take long for the moon to rise to the sky. It has only been a few days since the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the moon is still a little round, although it is not as round as the night of fifteen or sixteen, but it is not sickle-like.
Everyone kept talking and laughing, and before they knew it, time had passed. Yueting was already dozing off in Li Xin's arms.
"It's not too early, and we should disperse." Ling Ziye said suddenly, and stood up as he spoke. And the people also knew that the time was not early, and they did not hold back.
Li Xin asked Caiyun to take Yueting back to the room first, and then asked Zhu Yong to send Ling Ziye back to the inn. The road is not far, and there is no carriage, and you can quickly reach the inn by walking. Moreover, at night, if you use a carriage, it will be too dazzling and noisy. It's better to walk quietly with a lantern.
Except for Li Xin, Wenbo and Wen Hao, everyone else had already gone to sleep first.
When there were only three people, Li Xin talked to them about the things in the daytime. After dinner, Li Xin mentioned that there were still guests coming, and then asked Caixia and Wu's sister-in-law to serve for two days. However, the matter was not explained in detail, and they knew the whereabouts of Caixia and Sister-in-law Wu, so they didn't ask more.
Li Xin said all the general things, and only omitted the matter of the holy decree and the canonization of the county lord. Yin Liuchen's identity was not explicitly stated, but only said that he was Ling Ziye's good friend or Yin Tianchen's cousin who had come before.
They are still young, and it is not good to know too much about things, and if they leak their mouths outside, it is not a good thing after all. Yin Liuchen's identity, Li Xin, Caiyun and Ling Feifei's master and servant have all explained, so that they don't leak their mouths.
"It turned out that Brother Yin's cousin is here! Why didn't my sister leave anyone behind for us to meet! Wen Bo said with a smile.
"He wants to stay for a few more days, he won't leave for a while, and there will be more opportunities to meet in the future! Where is the urgency today. People come from the capital all the way, and the cars and horses are tired, so naturally it is better for people to settle down first. ”
Wen Hao suddenly spoke: "Eldest sister, now that Brother Ziye has come to pick up Fei Fei back, doesn't the eldest sister have to go to the capital?" ”
"Yes! Now that he's here, I naturally don't have to go to the capital. Originally, I was going to the capital, but I was going to send Fei Fei back. At this time, I actually have to be idle, and it's really not appropriate to go far away, so it's okay. This time, let him take Fei Fei back! When I'm free, I can take you to Ling's house for a walk. ”
"Good! It would be great if you could go to the capital and have fun. I don't know how Mu Ling is doing, whether she is doing well now. ”
"I miss your little friend! Sun Muling's life in the Sun family should be okay now. Anyway, with Mrs. Sun in one day, the people of the Sun family would not dare to bully him casually. Moreover, isn't his annoying second sister already married, as for whether the scheming eldest sister is married, I didn't ask in detail. Even if you haven't gotten married yet, it should be soon. Without those two people, Sun Muling's sister and brother could finally have a better life. Wen Hao mentioned Sun Muling. Li Xin also remembered Sun Muling's sister and brother.
Sun Xueyin was not bullied like that by her sisters at a young age, and even almost died, she was really a very poor child.
The back house of a rich family is really not a place where ordinary people can stay, where there are people, there is a fight, and when there are interests, such a struggle will be more intense. A family consisting of one man and many women is destined to be strife. This is true of royal backyards, as well as of the inner houses of rich and noble families.
The kind of war that women don't see the smoke of gunpowder is sometimes even more terrifying.
However, it is also unavoidable after all. Unless a man really has only one woman, one generation and one couple in his life, then there may be less fighting.
It's just that rich and noble families, most of them care about the prosperity of their children, and naturally they think that the more wives and concubines, the better, and the more children and grandchildren, the better. Moreover, how lustful a man is, even if he is not really lustful, having many beautiful wives and concubines is also a kind of capital to show off to the outside world. Most of them still like groups of wives and concubines, even if they are not in groups! That's also a three-five person!
Moreover, there is also a problem with the formation of such a trend, that is, there are relatively more men than women. The perennial wars continued, and many men died on the battlefield, and many died before they got married.
Or in the end, women are still in a weak position, even if they feel unfair, they still have to bear it silently, because once they want to resist, there will be countless people who stand up and criticize, and then they will be hit on the head and bleed. The funny thing is that many of the people who came forward would still be female compatriots who agreed.
is still harming social reality, but in this environment, even Li Xin can only be alone, and she can't control more things.
"As long as they can get by, that's fine." Wen Hao sighed that he remembered the scene of the second miss of the Sun family bullying Sun Xueyin deeply. "That kind of sister is really terrible, look at Mu Ling's sister, do you really think that the eldest sister is the best sister in the world?"
"Isn't there a comparison between what I said, isn't my sister bad?" Li Xin grabbed Wen Hao's ear.
"No, no, no matter whether there is a comparison or not, the eldest sister is the best sister." Wen Hao hurriedly changed his words.
"Maybe it's better than such a big family, or a small family like us. In such a family, where is the father not the father and the son not the son, where is there any affection at all. I hope that our family will always be so warm and happy, I don't ask for anything, I just want you to live a happy life, and I have no regrets. Li Xin gently rubbed the heads of his two younger brothers.
"Rest assured, everyone! No matter what time it is, our home will definitely be as warm and happy as ever, and this will not change. We both have a deep relationship, which cannot be changed no matter what, how can there be a time when we calculate each other! It would be terrible if it really became such an abomination. Wenbo leaned on Li Xin's arms and whispered.
"It's best if you feel like that. I also remind you now, when you grow up, no matter where you are and how rich you live, you can't have those messy things in your home. If you want to marry, marry a good woman you like, and then treat her well, don't have three wives and four concubines, and make the family unsuccessful, and the miasma will be smoky. If you dare to do that, I'll break your legs. Li Xin sighed.
She doesn't care how other people's families live, but in her own home, she can't see those messy things. What's so good about that kind of day, why are there so many men who like three wives and four concubines, and enjoy the blessings of all people! A couple from generation to generation in a lifetime, the husband and wife are in love with each other and support each other, is it good that they are not familiar with each other?
Whether it is a relationship or a marriage, if it has become impure, it will lose the beauty of Jue at the beginning.
"Why did the eldest sister think so far! That's a long way off! Wenbo blushed slightly. There are no elders and relatives in this family, but no one has ever joked about children like that.
"It's going to be years before I think about these things, but ah! Actually, it's not far away. Let me tell you first, and don't mess around with people outside. Whether you live a good life or not, you feel it yourself, and what others say is out of the blue, it doesn't work. If you think it's not good, don't do it, don't do it, don't give outsiders a few words. There is nothing enviable about the three wives and four concubines, if there is really a fire in the backyard and a disaster against the wall, it will be a real shame. ”
"Sister, don't worry! My eldest brother and I will definitely listen to my eldest sister all the time. Wen Hao hurriedly said.
"Just be obedient."
"Eldest sister, don't think we will envy others, aren't the lives of my father and mother very good? Envy others, our family has always been single-minded, so working together, no one will hold anyone back, and there will be no calculations. Days like this are the best, and nothing compares to them. Wenbo said solemnly.
"We've grown up."
It didn't take long for Zhu Yong, who had sent Ling Ziye to the inn, turned back. Seeing that Zhu Yong was back, Li Xin also took his two younger brothers to the small building where he lived.
It's getting late, and it's time to rest.
"In fact, the eldest sister should think more about how to live in the future! The eldest sister is not too young, and it is time to start preparing for the dowry. I've heard a few of my classmates say that their older sister is not as old as the eldest sister! The family also began to prepare the dowry, saying that it was prepared earlier, and there was no need to find someone in a hurry when the matter came. When he arrived at the door of the house where Wenbo and the two lived, Wenbo suddenly said.
"What do I have to prepare! If I don't watch you grow up and live a good life, where do I have the heart to think about this kind of thing! Let's talk about it when you're all grown up! ”
"The eldest sister has already done a lot for us, and there is no need to be like this anymore. If we all grow up, where will the eldest sister find a good family! Eldest sister, you are for our good, and we also want you to live well in the future! ”
"You're still worried about my business, you don't have to worry about my business. Anyway, it depends on fate, maybe one day, I will find my own happiness, not certainly. It's getting late, go back to bed! Tomorrow is said to be a mid-year holiday, but ah! But you should also go to bed early and get up early, so that your body can be better. Li Xin pushed the two younger brothers into the room and went back to the room by himself. R1152
