Chapter 80: Getting Started
"Mother, thank you!"
In a pavilion in the inner house of Quanzhou Taishou Mansion, the old lady Fu Erniang of Taishou Mansion sat in the center of the pavilion, Quanzhou Taishou Li Sanjian and his wife Cai Rongxue sat on the left side of Fu Erniang, and Li Sanjian's second wife Wang Wen did not sit down, but went in and out, busy outside.
Li Sanjian didn't expect that his mother, Fu Erniang, and the others would prepare so grandly and thoroughly in a short period of time, which made Li Sanjian an extraordinary surprise.
At that time, after Li Sanjian dropped the sentence "I want to take a concubine", he fled to the state government and threw the matter of taking a concubine to Fu Erniang and others...
"What are you thanking me for?" Fu Erniang smiled: "You should thank your daughter-in-law Xue'er, she did it all by herself." ”
Li Sanjian accepted a concubine, and Fu Erniang was of course happy.
This not only proves that his son has the ability, but also Fu Erniang's idea for a long time...
The two daughters-in-law have never been pregnant, of course Fu Erniang will not blame Li Sanjian, but some blame on the two daughters-in-law.
At this point, you have to use the amount to win... One doesn't work, two doesn't work, can't three, four still work? Fu Erniang's idea is as simple as that.
Therefore, at this time, Li Sanjian took a new concubine, and Fu Erniang was still happy, the only thing that she didn't want to go was that she felt a little sorry for Cai Rongxue and Wang Wen's two daughters-in-law.
Li Sanjian nodded, stretched out his long sleeves and covered Cai Rongxue's hand, and tightly held Cai Rongxue's somewhat cold little hand under the sleeve, and said gratefully: "Madam, thank you very much." ”
"Husband, this is what a concubine should do, thank you?" Cai Rongxue pursed her lips and smiled slightly.
Li Sanjian's new concubine, to say that Cai Rongxue is willing and happy, it is self-deception and contrary to common sense.
What woman in this world is willing to let others share her husband?
In fact, Cai Rongxue still looks down on Li Wanting a little in her heart, a boudoir woman, regardless of her face, eloped to Quanzhou, such a woman, it will be looked down upon, at this time, she will be included in the Taishou Mansion, how much will she lose the face of the Taishou Mansion.
But what can Cai Rongxue do at this time?
No matter how unwilling Cai Rongxue is, she can't resist the male owner of the family, Li Sanjian, likes it, as early as the time of Kaifeng Mansion, Cai Rongxue has already seen some clues between Li Sanjian and Li Ji Gold and Silver Shop.
If Cai Rongxue forcibly blocks it, it is jealousy, and then she will commit the mistake of "seven outs".
"Disobedience to parents", "childlessness", "lewdness", "jealousy", "evil disease", "tongue", and "theft" are called "seven outs".
One of the most important is jealousy, and if a woman commits a crime, her husband can write a letter of divorce and divorce her, without being condemned or punished by law.
Li Sanjian loves Cai Rongxue very much, and at this moment, Cai Rongxue can't cause Li Sanjian's unhappiness, otherwise the accumulated evil thoughts will be unpredictable.
As Li Sanjian's official became bigger and bigger, he unconsciously became more and more majestic, and sometimes Cai Rongxue was a little afraid of Li Sanjian.
"Xue'er, do you know that today you and I want to enter the cave room with you the most." Li Sanjian suddenly leaned over and whispered in Cai Rongxue's ear.
Li Sanjian's words are half grateful, grateful to Cai Rongxue for being gentle, virtuous, and understanding, and half sorry, sorry for the harm caused to Cai Rongxue by taking a concubine.
Li Sanjian's acceptance of Li Wanting as a concubine is really a helpless move.
Li Wanting eloped to Quanzhou, looking for Li Sanjian, and taking refuge in Li Sanjian, if Li Sanjian ignored her or sent her back, then what awaited her would be an extremely miserable fate.
It is conceivable that when Li Wanting returns home, she will live under the cynicism, ridicule, abuse and contempt of everyone, and it will be extremely difficult.
If this is the case, Li Sanjian is really wolf-hearted, when he was in Kaifeng Mansion, Li Wanting also helped Li Sanjian desperately, if Li Sanjian refused, how could he bear it?
Of course, Li Wanting's beauty is like a fairy, which also makes Li Sanjian unable to extricate himself...
Xi Shi and Zhong Wuyan, ordinary people treat them, it must be two results...
"Oh, it's you and the newcomer today... Why are you involved in the slave family? Cai Rongxue blushed when she heard this, and at the same time she was also very relieved.
As long as the husband's love for him is undiminished, then what does it matter if he has more women? Cai Rongxue said secretly in her heart.
"You ... What are you talking about? The newcomers are almost here... At this time, Wang Wen, who was too busy to come to an end, ran in, looked at the flirting Li Sanjian and Cai Rongxue and asked in surprise.
Wang Wen also cares about Li Sanjian's concubine, but she is the identity of a concubine, where can she dare to complain?
As long as Li Sanjian continues to spoil himself, let it be as he pleases, Wang Wen also thinks the same.
"What do you say... It is said that ... Li Sanjian didn't dare to be too presumptuous in front of his mother, he just raised his eyebrows, and made an expression that only a husband and wife understood in front of Wang Wen, and at the same time, he glanced at Cai Yingxue, who was sitting on the side, cold as frost... Love you eBook
Phew, Wang Wen secretly smacked Li Sanjian in her heart, and sat beside Cai Rongxue.
At this time, Cai Yingxue, who was as cold as ice, sat on the right side of Fu Erniang's guest seat, and an iceberg with thousands of years of snow faintly appeared behind her...
Li Sanjian hurriedly sat closer to Cai Rongxue.
This eldest sister is always a threat or a trouble, what can I do to solve this matter? Li Sanjian said secretly in his heart.
"Get off the sedan chair, the newcomer comes out!" At this time, Li Sanjian's concubine Li Wanting's small sedan chair was carried into the inner house, and after passing the garden gate, the sedan chair fell, and the bride Li Wanting was helped out.
"Here comes the bride?" At this time, Fu Erniang wanted to get up to greet her.
"Mother, you don't have to be like this." Seeing this, Cai Rongxue persuaded.
Li Sanjian nodded approvingly, and he was also standing on the chair and did not get up.
In any case, etiquette must not be abolished, this is the way that must be observed in this world, at least in front of everyone must be respected.
After a while, Li Nan ran out and took Li Wanting's hand back to the pavilion.
"The cheap maid Xu family meets the old lady, meets Li Zhizhou, meets the lady, and meets the second lady." After Li Wanting entered the pavilion, she bowed to everyone in the pavilion one by one.
Without permission, Li Wanting can't call herself a "concubine".
"Okay, good, the bride quickly get up, come here, see the ceremony!" Fu Erniang said with a smile.
Li Wanting has a lovely appearance and elegant posture, which can be described as a fairy and jade, which makes people feel good, such a beloved, became her daughter-in-law, and the responsibility of the Li family's inheritance will not necessarily fall on her... When Fu Erniang thought of this, of course, her mood was extremely happy.
"Serve tea!" The master of ceremonies of the Taishou Mansion sang.
Subsequently, a maidservant girl came up with a wooden plate, with several fragrant teas on the plate, Li Wanting held the tea bowl in both hands, handed it to Fu Erniang, Cai Rongxue and others one by one, and said words of tea salutation.
This is also an indispensable step when taking a concubine, after Fu Erniang, Cai Rongxue and others drank tea, they showed that they accepted Li Wanting, if they put the tea bowl on the table and did not drink, it showed that they refused to accept Li Wanting as a concubine.
However, at this time, Li Wanting's tea was just a formality, and Fu Erniang had already called Li Wanting a "bride", so it showed that she had agreed to accept Li Wanting.
Fu Erniang has already accepted Li Wanting, so in the entire Taishou Mansion, who else dares to touch the old lady's intentions?
"Thank you, concubine, mother-in-law, Mrs. and Second Lady." After the tea was served, Li Wanting officially became Li Sanjian's concubine and became Li Sanjian's wife, so at this time, Li Wanting bowed again with family rites.
"Okay, okay, Ting'er, your name is Ting'er, right? You've been busy for so long, tired, right? Get up and rest for a while. Fu Erniang said to Li Wanting with a smile: "From today on, even if you enter the door of my Li family, my Li family is from a poor family, and there are not as many rules as a big family, in the future, you just need to be good to Jian'er and your sisters." ”
"Mother-in-law's order, how dare the concubine disobey?" Li Wanting responded.
"Mother-in-law, Mrs., second wife, this is a little filial piety for the concubine, please smile." Li Wanting then pointed to the several gift boxes brought in and said.
Li Sanjian's concubines, Fu Erniang, Cai Rongxue, and Wang Wen all have to be gifted, and even Cai Yingxue and Li Nan have small gifts to offer, of course, Cai Yingxue is extremely unwilling to give gifts, and her gifts are also prepared by Cai Rongxue.
After the gift, it was Li Wanting who returned the gift.
After Fu Erniang, Cai Rongxue and others opened the gift box given by Li Wanting, the entire pavilion suddenly emitted a burst of colorful light.
Cai Rongxue was better, after all, she was well-informed, and Fu Erniang and the others were immediately stunned.
The gifts in the gift box are all rare items, and many gifts Fu Erniang and others don't say they have seen it, and they have never even heard of it.
And the gifts given by Li Wanting vary from person to person, such as Wang Wen and Li Nan got some strange things, which made the two of them fall in love with each other, and their good impression of Li Wanting also increased greatly.
The people of the wealthy businessman's family really made a different move, and everyone secretly said in their hearts together.
"Thank you, Sister Wanting." Cai Rongxue gently closed the lid of the gift box and said to Li Wanting.
"It's just a small gift, how can you talk about thanks? The lady broke the concubine's body. Li Wanting smiled slightly.
The appearance of the official's wife is really extraordinary, and Li Wanting secretly compares it with her in her heart.
"Huh!" Cai Rongxue also smiled when she heard this: "My mother has already said that my Li family is a poor family, and there are not so many rules as a big family, Sister Wanting doesn't have to be commensurate with Mrs. in the future, how about the three of us in the order of coming to the Li family, as 'eldest mother, second mother, third mother'?" ”
"How dare a concubine not follow the orders of his wife?" Li Wanting lowered her eyebrows and responded.
Cai Rongxue's words implied two meanings, how could Li Wanting not hear them?
