Chen Wenhui looked at the brighter and brighter eyes of the snow and felt very relieved. This girl is a kind-hearted girl. Such a good girl deserves the full protection of her husband and wife.

Rong Xue was immersed in her own imagination, and when she thought about it, she felt that there were too many things she could do, and she said excitedly to Chen Wenhui: "Sister-in-law, your proposal is too good." I'll concentrate on this in the future. When you think about it, there's still a lot to do. For example, opening a shelter to house homeless girls and daughters-in-law. There are many more, hey, for a while, I don't know what to say. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "You can learn from Sister Mingzhu in this regard." She's experienced. ”

"No, she's been managing Yangshan Hall for several years. The nobles in the capital, as soon as they mentioned it in the circle of noblewomen, they all gave a thumbs up. ”

Chen Wenhui laughed.

Lang Xue said: "Speaking of which, I also have the motivation to make money." Before, I was in business, running shops and granges, and collecting rent, but I didn't have much interest. After all, I am in the county lord's mansion, and the food, clothing, and use are all the best, and I have too few places to spend money. In the past six months, I still have to spend money hard, and I only spent more than 1,000 taels of silver. ”

"Now, however, I feel like I'm probably going to spend a lot of money on that in the future. I will take care of the goods that my sister-in-law gave me. Well, I want to go back and make a plan now. ”

Chen Wenhui laughed and said, "That's not in a hurry. Let's enjoy the flowers first, don't let down this spring. ”

So to speak. Rong Xue was also a little embarrassed, thought for a while and said: "Such beautiful peony flowers, many of them are unique in the capital." Isn't it a waste for the two of us to reward? I think that while my sister-in-law is at home, I can take a day out to invite the ladies and ladies of the capital to enjoy the flowers. My sister-in-law has not been active in the social circle of the capital for a long time, and now it seems that she is going to the northwest again, and in the future, even fewer will come back. Naturally, it is necessary to show up. ”

Chen Wenhui thought about it too, and said with a smile: "Your proposal is very good." So be it. I'm going to the palace tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, we will hold a cherry blossom viewing party. I don't have time to manage this, so you can help me do it. I will use my post to post to the ladies and girls of the family. Make a bigger one. Not only to enjoy the flowers, but also to drink tea. Dine. ”

Rong Xue nodded with a smile and said, "I know my sister-in-law is busy." Leave it to me. As long as I'm not afraid to spend money, I'll do it properly. ”

Chen Wenhui said with a smile: "It's a pity that it's during the national funeral. We can't sing and dance, but we have the best people in our family. Forget it, just drink tea, don't eat rice, the imperial history of the province is verbose. ”

Lang Xue said: "What my sister-in-law thinks about is that I recently participated in the gathering of these noble ladies in the capital, and they all don't eat or sing and dance. However, it is still possible to enjoy the flowers and drink tea. In addition, the poetry club can also be, but you can't drink alcohol or play the piano. ”

Chen Wenhui said: "Since you understand, I won't instruct you, you just look at it, you don't need to save me money, how to do it, how to do it, the treasury is open, pick the best things out to use." ”

Lang Xue smiled and said okay.

The next day, Chen Wenhui entered the palace early in the morning. Snow is a matter of preparing for a banquet at home. Mu Li Gongzi invited him a few times, but he didn't see Langxue until it was time to eat, and he didn't know that Rongxue was busy holding a banquet at home. When Mu Li Gongzi heard the report of the maids, he couldn't help but say straightforwardly: "A person like Yuxue is still so capable?" This banquet, in this short period of time, invited so many dignitaries and dignitaries, can she be busy alone? ”

As a nobleman, although he is a nobleman in southern Xinjiang, Mu Li Gongzi also knows how complicated it is to hold a banquet. Now, in such a short period of time, can you get this done with snow? It's incredible.

The one who talked back and forth was a little maid beside Rong Xue, and she said proudly: "Childe doesn't know, our girl may have done it." Participate in the gathering of those nobles in the capital, and get the top three every time. Whether it is piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it is so powerful. In addition, she has a good background, has the county lord's mansion as a backer, is also beautiful, and has a gentle temperament. ”

Mu Li Gongzi said with a smile: "The first beauty is worthy of the beauty of the Snow Girl." ”

The maid was even more proud and said: "No, in addition to beauty, our girl also manages all the affairs of such a big county lord's mansion, and her subordinates are in charge of the entire mansion, and hundreds of servants of all sizes are in order. In addition to these, our girl also manages several granges, shops, and rental yards, all of which are very profitable. In the circle of noblewomen in the capital, many grandmothers of wealthy families admire it, and many people ask to marry our girl. ”

Hearing this, Mu Li was a little anxious and asked, "Is the Snow Girl married?" ”

The maid said: "Our girl's parents are gone, and she lives according to her brother and sister-in-law, how can this family matter be determined by herself, it must be given by the county lord and the second master." The county lord and the second master were not at home for a while ago, so naturally they didn't settle down. ”

Mu Li couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The maid said again: "The son is friends with our county lord and the second master. I think I know the rules of our house. These things should be decided by the county lord. ”

This Mu Li also understands that the average aristocratic family, whether it is a daughter-in-law or a daughter, is the housewife, and then tells the man, and the general man has no opinion, so he officially proposes marriage.

The maid continued: "If we don't say anything else, there is one that is very clear. This one stopped those who came to the door to propose marriage. ”

Saying this, Mu Li Gongzi became worried again and asked, "What are the conditions?" ”

The maid glanced at Mu Li Gongzi strangely and said, "How come this thing that everyone in Da Chu knows, Gongzi doesn't know?" Oh, look at my brain, Gongzi is not our Da Chu people, so naturally it is not clear. I'll tell Childe. Our county lord was born in the Xiao Chen family. This boy knows, right? ”

What is Mu Li Gong busy with: "I naturally know this." ”

The maid said: "The Xiao Chen family has a family rule, that is, no concubines are allowed. The head of our Xiao Chen family, Lord Chen, is in a high position and power, but he only guards a white lady to live. There are two sons in the family, the eldest son is the city lord of Xinguang City, and he also has only one Mrs. Wan. The second son is the lord of Tianshui City, and there is only one Mrs. Mei. In the middle, Mrs. Wan, the eldest prince, has been married for many years and has not been pregnant. Ordinary people, like this case, have already taken concubines. ”

Mu Li nodded hurriedly.

The maid said contemptuously: "But our Xiao Chen family is not an ordinary family, and the eldest prince is stunned that he has no concubines, and he doesn't even have a room." The maid who had that kind of idea didn't wait for Mrs. Wan to make a move, and Mrs. Bai dealt with the person directly. No one in the bottom group thinks that way anymore. Later, Mrs. Wan easily had a child, but she turned out to be a girl. However, Lord Chen and Mrs. Bai love each other very much, and they don't have any intention of taking a concubine for the eldest prince. ”

Mu Li Gongzi got up.

The maid then said, "Then there is our county lord's house." Our county lord is the only concubine of the Xiao Chen family, and she is still so beautiful, capable, and smart. I don't know how many people in the world want to marry, even the princes are thinking about our county lord. However, our head of the family, Lord Chen, did not allow any of them, but married the county lord to the second master of the Zhongyi family. Do you know why? ”

Mu Li Gongzi was stunned and asked, "Why?" ”

The maid said proudly: "Because our second master is the most clean and self-loving, there has never been a concubine, not even a maid to serve." Such a son is not rare. Therefore, he was lucky to marry the lord of our family. ”

Mu Li only felt a cold heart.

The maid didn't see it, and continued: "So, if this snow girl wants to marry, the first choice condition for the county lord must be someone like our second master." Even if it's not as good as our second master, there is a maid to serve and something like that, even if it doesn't matter, this concubine must not be had. Also, after becoming a relative, you must not marry a concubine. This stumped a lot of sons and brothers, if there wasn't such a one, there must have been more people who came to the door to marry our snow girl. ”

Mu Li Gongzi barely squeezed out a smile and said, "Thank you for this sister." Akiko, give this sister a reward, a first-class reward. ”

Mingzi's face has always been bad, but when she heard this, she still obediently returned to the house, took a first-class reward envelope, handed it to the maid and said, "Is this sister from Xiao Chen's family?" ”

The maid wrote a reward and said to Mingzi: "Sister, most of the maids in our house came from the Xiao Chen family. There are also some who came from Nanyang like my sister. ”

Akiko nodded. The maid is gone.

Mingzi sent the maid back, and her mood fluctuated, this news was not good news for her, and she had to re-plan. Others don't know, but she, as Muli's pillow person, is very clear that Muli Gongzi has true feelings for the Snow Girl. Before, he and Gardenia became the pillow man of Mu Li Gongzi. She's more favored. Later, the maids from Gongzi's southern Xinjiang also came over, and they all had a relationship with Gongzi. Although the son still spoils her, he also sleeps with gardenias and those maids in southern Xinjiang every once in a while.

However, since he came to the capital, the day he saw the Snow Girl, Childe never slept with a maid including himself and Gardenia. As a woman, whether her sweetheart has changed her mind or not, she is the most sensitive. Mulli fell in love with the snow. This is already something that Akiko can be sure of. However, Akiko wasn't worried before. She is a widow, and it is impossible for Mu Li Gongzi to be the main wife. However, there is no problem in being a concubine. However, now, if Mu Li Gongzi marries Rong Xue, then she can't even be a concubine.

Akiko's heart slowly sank. (To be continued......)
