Jia Zheng was eating wine with Qin Ye here, and the little maid who brought them tea just now secretly ran to the back house at this time.

This back house is different from other places, and the rest of the Qin Mansion is simply two worlds, the design is very exquisite, the carved beams and paintings are all through the hands of famous artists, although small but exquisite. This place alone costs a lot of silver. If someone else came in and saw it, they would be amazed at the luxury of this place, and if it was only exquisite in terms of its size, many princes and nobles would not be as good as it.

The little maid came to the back house, came to a beautifully designed show downstairs, and shouted a few words to it, "Ruizhu, Ruizhu, come down quickly, I have something to tell you." ”

After a while, the door opened, and a little maid walked out of the building, who looked beautiful and lovely, but with a little arrogance on her face. When she saw the little maid who called her, she said angrily: "What is it called, what is it called, what is it called?" The young lady was painting upstairs, and you ruined a large piece of paper by your shouting. ”

The little girl knew that she had been a little rude just now, so she stuck out her tongue and showed an embarrassed expression.

As for the tone of Rui Zhu's speech just now, she may already know her temper, so she is not annoyed. Instead, he beckoned to her.

Seeing her mysterious appearance, Ruizhu walked up to her and said, "What's so mysterious? ”

The little girl smiled and said, "This is a big matter for young lady, if I tell you, you will reward me." ”

When Ruizhu heard her words, she immediately became alert, took out a piece of loose silver from her arms, handed it to her, and said, "Here you go, yours is indispensable, can you say it now?" ”

The little girl looked around, and when she saw that there was no one around, she said to Ruizhu: "Someone came to propose to Miss just now, and the master has agreed." In a few days, the other party will come to send the letter of appointment. ”

When Rui Zhu heard this, his eyes immediately stood up, and he said angrily to the little girl: "Don't talk nonsense, if you ruin the reputation of the young lady, see how the master cleans you up." ”

"I'm kind enough to report to you, if you don't believe it, it's okay, and you want to slander me, I knew I wouldn't come." The little girl said and wanted to go out angrily.

Rui Zhu saw that this little girl didn't seem to be lying, so she hurriedly stopped her and compensated her: "Good sister, spare me, I said the wrong thing just now, don't take it to heart." Then he took out a piece of silver from his bosom and put it in her hand.

The little maid turned her anger into joy, turned around and said to him: "I'm telling you the truth, now the begging Master Jia hasn't left yet." I am drinking with the lord in front. ”

"Which one is Master Jia, and which one is our future uncle?" Ruizhu asked anxiously, this is related to Miss's lifelong happiness, Miss couldn't help but ask, only she, the personal maid, came.

The little maid said enviously: "Our young lady is really a blessed person, it was Master Jia Zhengjia of Rongguo Mansion who proposed just now, and it was for his eldest son to propose marriage for Miss, but unfortunately it is just a concubine, if it is a concubine, it will be perfect." ”

Ruizhu was panicked when she heard this, how could her future aunt be just a concubine, others didn't know that she didn't know that her young lady looked gentle and virtuous, but in fact, she was such an arrogant person inside, and now she had to marry a concubine, and she didn't know what to be sad about.

Ruizhu chatted with the maid a few more words before sending her away. Then go back to the show building and close the door. Only then did he walk to the second floor of the show building.

Ruizhu went up to the second floor and came to a delicate study, one wall of this study was a row of bookshelves, which were full of books, and next to the bookshelves was a desk, a table and stool made of huanghuali, carved by skilled craftsmen. Next to it is the Duobao Pavilion and separated from the outside. This treasure pavilion is placed on all kinds of exquisite porcelain, white jade ornaments, jade carvings. This shelf of things alone is enough for ordinary people to endure for several lifetimes.

There is also a big case made of sandalwood in the outer room, there is a young lady painting there, painting a picture of stepping into the green, only to see this young lady increase a fattening, minus a point is thin, between the eyebrows are both dignified and pretty, the figure is graceful, of course, I think it is a fairy in the painting, not a mortal woman.

Ruizhu came to this young lady's side and wanted to talk, her eyes were full of uneasiness.

The young lady was already aware of it when she came. Seeing her twisting like this, he asked: "What's the matter that has been going down for so long, coming up like this, if you have something to say, just say it, I can still eat you." ”

Only then did Rui Zhu speak: "Miss, the little girl who was waiting in front just now came to report to me." said that the lord has promised you a partner, and now the lord is eating wine with his father-in-law in the front yard. ”

When the young lady heard her say this, she seemed to be careless and asked, "Which one did you order for me?" Which son is it? After saying this, his face was already flushed, and his face seemed to be smeared with a piece of rouge, and he was a little charming.

Rui Zhu pouted and didn't speak, but secretly glanced at the young lady, who saw her like this, and had a bad premonition in her heart, and asked uncertainly: "Isn't there something wrong?" You're going to say it, I'm in a hurry. ”

Rui Zhu really couldn't hide it, so he said: "Miss, the family is good, it is a famous Rongguo Mansion in the capital." It's just ......"

When it came to her life's events, the young lady couldn't care about being shy, and asked anxiously, "What's just that?" ”

Rui Zhu gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, and said, "It's just that it's not the concubine of Rongguo Mansion, it's just a concubine." ”

When the young lady heard her say this, she breathed a sigh of relief, and scolded coquettishly: "You dead girl, you scared me to death, what should I have done turned out to be just this." If it's just a concubine, it will save a lot of trouble. In the future, as long as the two of them are good, I am afraid that there will be no food in this room alone. ”

In fact, this young lady was also a little disappointed in her heart, and what she said just now was just self-comfort.

Rui Zhu thought about it like this, although the young lady was not an elderly parent, but the old man hurt the young lady to the bone. I'm afraid that the dowry prepared for the young lady over the years is several times more than that left to the young master in the house?

It's just that I didn't expect that their young lady was arrogant, although she didn't care about it on the surface, she added a lot of sadness in her heart.

In the afternoon, a little maid came to tell me that the old man had asked the young lady to go to his study.

So this young lady took the maid Ruizhu, moved the lotus step lightly, and went to the small study of Qin Ye in the back house. As soon as she entered the small study, this young lady gave a salute to Qin Ye, who didn't know why, but turned sideways to the side and only accepted half of her salute.

The young lady seemed to be commonplace, and did not have any other expression, but asked softly: "Daddy, I don't know what is the matter with calling my daughter." ”

Qin Ye only then returned to the desk and sat down, and then asked the young lady to sit down, and then said to her: "Keqing, I have set a family affair for you. That family is also a good family, and I will be relieved if you go to his house. ”

It turned out that this young lady was called Qin Keqing, and she was the girl raised by Qin Ye.

Originally, Mrs. Qin Ye died early, and because she had no children and no daughters, she hugged a son and a daughter to Yangshengtang, but the son she adopted later died for no reason. Leaving only Qin Keqing's daughter, Qin Ye treated her like a pearl in her palm.

If you know the inside story, I'm afraid you will be confused. When Qin Ye was around fifty years old, why didn't he go to the distant brother to have a stepchild, but instead went to the health hall to raise the child? Raising a child is generally to continue cigarettes and pass on the ancestry, so it is said that it is enough to raise a boy, why do you prefer to raise a girl? Since it is not difficult to raise a son from the health hall, why not follow after the son dies and raises another one? These are suspicious.

And within a few years, Qin Ye had a son, which was Qin Ye's biological son Qin Zhong, which showed that Qin Ye was not infertile. The mystery of this makes people think about it more carefully.

Qin Keqing lowered his head when he heard Qin Ye say this, and said softly: "The matter of marriage has been since ancient times, the order of the parents, and the words of the matchmaker. The daughter's marriage is in charge of the father's decision. ”

Qin Ye touched his beard, his face was full of lightness, as if he was letting go of some burden, he smiled and said to Qin Keqing: "Even so, I still have to inform you." Let you know which guy it is. ”

Qin Keqing heard Qin Ye say this, but he lowered his head and blushed and didn't speak.

Qin Ye continued: "The talented man I told you about is the eldest son of Rongguo Mansion. At this point, he glanced up at her and saw that her face was calm.

Qin Ye said again: "Don't underestimate this eldest son, this person is not trivial. is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and now he has been named the Marquis of Wuyang by the emperor, and he is the envoy of Xuanfu Town, which can be said to be a high power. Moreover, the emperor has already built a mansion for him next to Rongguo's mansion, as long as you take care of your own mansion when you marry, you don't need to participate in other things. ”

Qin Ye told her like this, and he also knew the scene in the Rongguo Mansion, and in the future, the Rongguo Mansion would probably be inherited by Jia Zheng's two sons-in-law. And this eldest son may not get any property, but fortunately, this eldest son is still competitive, and the young couple don't have to worry about their future life after they get married.

Qin Keqing listened to Qin Ye's words, although his face was not obvious, but he couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in his heart.

Although she said just now that she didn't care about the identity of her eldest son, there was still a trace of disappointment in her heart.

After all, the distinction between the descendants and the concubines has existed in ancient times. Concubines are generally not welcomed at home. After she married her concubine, although she relied on the dowry she brought over, she would not have to worry about her life in the future. But what daughter does not want her husband to be productive, and not to live on his wife's dowry.

Now that I heard Qin Ye say this, I knew that this eldest son was ten times stronger than those young masters in Rongguo Mansion.

Thinking about this motivated eldest son, I am afraid that he is also a hard-working person, otherwise he would not have worked hard at the border in his teens, that is, with the help of Rongguofu, he can rise rapidly, but if it were not for his own efforts, there would be no today's results.

So far, Qin Keqing is satisfied, but he feels a little distressed about his future husband, thinking that he is not doing well in Rongguo Mansion. But think about it, even ordinary concubines will be discriminated against in the house, not to mention that he is the eldest son, he will inevitably be targeted by the wife of the family, and when he wants to be young, he must have been soaked in bitter water, how can this not make people feel distressed.
