Chapter 154: Acceptance
Chen Wenhui couldn't help but laugh and said: "Your brother and I are not your parents, nor are we people who eat the ancients, where will stop you from finding your happiness?" It's just that we feel that this relationship is really inappropriate, so we suggest this. ”
Rong Xue barely stopped crying, she knew in her heart that she had to fight for this opportunity by herself, otherwise, not to mention that it was the prince of Mu Li who asked to marry, or the emperor who asked to marry, I was afraid that her brother and sister-in-law would be able to refuse.
So, Lang Xue said: "Sister-in-law, since I met my brother, I have lived a good life. Don't laugh there, don't look at other people's faces. I have become a well-dressed and respected noblewoman. Moreover, my sister-in-law and brother have a high status, and I also follow the rising tide and am looked down upon everywhere I go. I would have dressed up, and in addition, my sister-in-law gave me a lot of good clothes and jewelry, so I naturally looked more beautiful. Also, Mrs. Chen taught me a lot, Sister Mingzhu also helped me, and my sister-in-law gave me the property, which made me richer than ordinary ladies. In this way, I also have a thin name in the social circle in the capital. ”
"There are also many people who pursue me. However, I didn't dare to admit it. Because, I know in my own heart that in the capital, sooner or later, my life experience will be exposed, don't forget that Mrs. Zhao is in the capital. At that time, I was already married, and when I arrived at someone's house, didn't I let others suffer? ”
This Chen Wenhui agrees with Rong Xue's opinion.
In this regard, Chen Wenhui also has concerns. She knew that this society wanted an upper-class family, and it was unlikely that she would accept a girl from such a background as a patriarch, or even a second daughter-in-law. Even some families with good tutors and big rules. A woman from such a background is not qualified to be a concubine.
The reason why there are so many people in the capital who are asking to marry Langxue is because they only know that Rongxue is Zhao Chongyi's long-lost sister, who grew up in the countryside, and they don't know that they grew up in a green building.
In fact, although Zhao Chongyi and Chen Wenhui hid this from everyone, Mrs. Zhao was the most informed person. Mrs. Zhao hates Zhao Chongyi and Langxue so much. How could she let go of Langxue so gently and didn't announce her life story to the public?
Because of such questions, Chen Wenhui was also very worried, in private. She asked people to quietly buy the people around Mrs. Zhao. These servants around Mrs. Zhao used to follow Mrs. Zhao to squander in the Zhongyi Mansion. Now I stay on the farmstead. There is no income at all, what can I do with enough money just for those months, I have long been poor.
Now the people who met Chen Wenhui went to buy it in a big way. Send things, give silver, and ask for innocuous things, they are willing to help with this, so they went to ask Mrs. Zhao tentatively.
How did Mrs. Zhao know that the people around her had been bought by Chen Wenhui, she naturally trusted her henchmen very much, and said it in her own home, so she said it without any scruples. It turned out that she planned to wait until Chen Wenhui and his wife gave Lang Xue Zhang Luo a good marriage, and after making Xue Feng got married, she quietly told the family that Rong Xue married that at that time, the other party's family would definitely fight for Xue.
And Chen Wenhui and his wife are not easy to interfere, after all, when they get married, they are people of other people's families, and it is not easy to manage other people's housework. At that time, it was the time when Rong Xue and Zhao Chongyi were in pain.
I have to say that Chen Wenhui admires Mrs. Zhao's idea a little, and she is indeed vicious. Therefore, Chen Wenhui also made preparations early. That is, Chen Wenhui plans to find a family that can hold down for Langxue. Or to make snow simply find a home in Nanyang. There is Chen Wenhui who said, and the sky is high and the emperor is far away, no matter how long Mrs. Zhao's hand is, she can't reach to the South Seas thousands of miles away, so that the snow will be stable.
Chen Wenhui didn't say anything to Rong Xue, for fear of hurting Rong Xue's heart, but he didn't expect that the smart Rong Xue had already thought of this problem.
Lang Xue continued: "Sister-in-law, I also think about my own future, I think it's too terrible to get married. Later, my sister-in-law told me the story of the ten thousand deputy city lords. I had an idea in my mind. I want to learn the skills of housekeeping, learn the skills of management, and with the industry given by my sister-in-law, I will not be left without a place in the future, and I can support myself. That way, I don't have to get married, and I don't have to worry a lot in the future. ”
I didn't expect that Rong Xue had this idea in her heart before, I have to say that Chen Wenhui had not fallen in love with Zhao Chongyi before, and she also thought about this path, that is, to establish a foundation by herself, so that she would not have to marry in the future, and she would not be constrained by her in-laws, and she would not be persecuted by feudal etiquette like most women in this world.
"But, but, later, I met Master Muli. ”
Speaking of this, Lang Xue paused, there were still tears on his face, but his face began to turn red, as if a layer of rouge was applied to the white jade, which was very gorgeous.
Lang Xue endured her shyness, this is a critical moment in her life, not a time to be shy, if she can't convince her sister-in-law tonight, then her relationship with Mu Li Gongzi is estimated to be broken.
Thinking of this, Rong Xue plucked up the courage and said, "Ever since I met Master Muli, I don't know what's wrong, I can't help but be attracted to him. This could be my fate. Sometimes I wonder myself, and I'm not the kind of innocent girl who hasn't seen a foreign man. I'm not afraid of my sister-in-law's jokes, I grew up in a green building, and what I saw the most were all kinds of men. ”
Speaking of this, Lang Xue smiled bitterly and said, "Later, when I grew up and became an Oiran, there were more men who pursued me. Because it was manipulated by Mrs. Zhao, although I was asked to accompany the guests, she kept me as a Qingqi person. Although a red pill is not broken, where can it be high when picking up customers? This hand and foot, face has been touched by a man I don't know how many times. ”
This is the first time that Lang Xue took the initiative to mention the past in front of Chen Wenhui, and seeing Lang Xue's sad eyes, Chen Wenhui couldn't help but feel distressed. She shook the hand that made the snow.
Rong Xue smiled, with crystal tears on her face: "Sister-in-law, don't be sad about what I did before, those are over." In the world, I don't know how many women with this fate are, and I am the luckiest one. I can recognize my brother, and I can have a sister-in-law who loves me and takes care of me like you, which is really a blessing from my previous life. I've been blessed a lot. ”
"I often think that I have long lost interest in men, I have seen too many men there, and I have long been numb. I don't think I'll ever be tempted by a man in my life. I am also ready to be alone in the future, just like the Ten Thousand Deputy City Lords. However, I met Mulli, and from then on, I felt that everything was different. ”
"Sister-in-law, this may be the first time in my life that I am truly attracted to a man, and it may also be the last time, I want to seize this opportunity."
Chen Wenhui sighed, if it weren't for the fact that this anger was a little suppressive, she really wanted to say something, ask what is the love in the world, and teach people to live and die.
Chen Wenhui said: "I can understand your feelings. However, as brothers and sisters-in-law, we naturally think more about other things. Did you know that the son of Mu Li is also very complicated in southern Xinjiang? ”
Lang Xue said: "I know that my brother and sister-in-law are all for my good. I'm not the kind of girl who doesn't know how to do things. After this period of understanding, Mr. Mu Li also told me a lot. I knew that if I married him in the future, I would have to face many difficulties. First, he is not as clean as his brother, and he has a lot of women around him. I sent someone to inquire about the southern Xinjiang maid beside him, and Mu Li Gongzi is a well-known playboy in southern Xinjiang. ”
"But that's acceptable to me. It's not just me, most girls in the capital can accept it. Isn't it true that the queen also has to accept such a thing? Who doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Only our family, my sister-in-law's mother-in-law's family, Xiao Chen's family, does not have these things. So, I was mentally prepared for a long time. ”
"In addition to this, there is also the fact that Mu Li Gongzi's stepmother is the queen of Southern Xinjiang, she is very bad to him, she is different from ordinary women in the house, she holds power, and it will be much easier to deal with Mu Li Gongzi who has no power, and it is relatively difficult to be her daughter-in-law. However, I also inquired, Southern Xinjiang is different from our Dachu, and there are not so many rules of filial piety. ”
"Mu Li Gongzi also said that when he goes back to southern Xinjiang this time, he will have a fief of his own, and if I marry him, I should follow him to my fiefdom, and I should not serve my mother-in-law."
Chen Wenhui had nothing to say, it turned out that Langxue had thought about everything clearly. However, I have to say that the snow is still very rational and makes sense. Chen Wenhui could only say: "Since you have thought everything through, then your brother and I will think about it again." This matter cannot be rushed. We don't disagree with you either, but we don't approve of it either. Now is the time when you are in love, and a lot of things are too ideal. It's better to wait for a while, you and Mu Li Gongzi have been dating for a while, if you find that you still like him, when the time comes, it's not too late to talk about marriage. ”
Lang Xue nodded shyly.
Chen Wenhui comforted: "Right now, you can't be in a hurry, you have to take good care of your body, nothing is important, your body is the most important." Do you understand? ”
For her sister-in-law's concern, she was very moved.
Chen Wenhui watched as she fell asleep with the snow, and then took the water lotus back to her room. As soon as he returned to the room, he saw Zhao Chongyi anxiously wandering around the room.
Chen Wenhui couldn't help but laugh.
When Zhao Chongyi saw Chen Wenhui, he was very anxious and asked, "How is it?" Have you persuaded you to make snow? ”
Chen Wenhui said: "Not only did I not persuade her, but I was persuaded by her. ”
Zhao Chongyi was dumbfounded. (To be continued......)
