Chapter 728: The Fu Family
Approaching the end of the year, the Pingnan Hou Mansion is still the same as in previous years, and Fu Dayong, who is known for his loyalty and bravery, still stays at the border pass, following the concubines and concubines to celebrate the New Year.
Fu Yunkai returned to the capital a month ago. However, after returning to the capital, he was still very busy, and he didn't have a lot of time to spend at home with Mu Qingqiang.
On this day, he came back from Xiao Lingpu's house, looked at his wife and stopped talking.
For her husband, Mu Qingqiang is still quite satisfied. Although Fu Yunkai can't be by her side all the time, and spends most of the year at the border, he is extremely attentive to her, and he doesn't take concubines like other men. For her, that's enough.
"Yunkai, is there something wrong with you?" In private, they call each other by their names, and only change their names in front of outsiders.
Fu Yunkai asked, "Have you ever been a classmate with Zhiwei Jushi?" ”
Asked like this, Fu Yunkai actually knew this point.
He not only knew that Mu Qingqiang and Zhao Ruxi were classmates, but also knew that the two had a good relationship. Before getting married, Mu Qingqiang would go to Suiping Bofu from time to time to play with Zhao Ruxi.
It's not that he still misses Zhao Ruxi. As early as when Zhao Ruxi said that he would not marry a border soldier, he didn't have any thoughts about her.
He didn't have any resentment against Zhao Ruxi, but he didn't leave much of a good impression.
It's just undeniable that he still recognizes Zhao Ruxi's personality and talent.
So when Xiao Lingpu wanted him to marry the Mu family, he knew that Mu Qingqiang and Zhao Ruxi were friends in the process of inquiring, and his recognition of Mu Qingqiang immediately increased a lot.
The woman who can be friends with Zhao Ruxi is good in terms of character and talent. Things gather by like, and people are divided by groups.
Later, he met Mu Qingqiang, and he also confirmed this.
He is now single-minded towards his wife. He will not follow in his father's footsteps, let down the woman who loves him, and hurt his children.
Mu Qingqiang glanced at him and nodded: "Yes." ”
Fu Yunkai once proposed marriage to Zhao Ruxi, and he confessed to Mu Qingqiang before she got married.
It's impossible to say that you don't care about it at all. But Mu Qingqiang was very happy that this man was willing to confess his past to him.
And he also made it very clear at the time, everyone has their own ambitions, Zhao Ruxi doesn't like him, and he won't be nostalgic for her anymore. The two of them have no fate. He and Zhao Ruxi missed it, and it may be her who is waiting.
Mu Qingqiang's heart was sweet when she heard this, so she naturally let go of the mustard. She is not a multi-minded person, and now that Zhao Ruxi has become the princess of Qi, she has no idea about it.
She was just curious why Fu Yunkai mentioned this.
"I just came from His Royal Highness King An. He hinted to me, saying that you and Zhiwei are classmates, and since Zhiwei has returned to Beijing, you should walk around with her more. ”
He grabbed Mu Qingqiang's hand and gently hugged her into his arms: "But I told him, you are pregnant, morning sickness is very bad, and you really don't have the energy to communicate with people." So I turned him down. ”
Mu Qingqiang was an ignorant woman before marriage, she was arrogant by nature, and she disdained to watch these laymen fight for fame and profit.
But after getting married, especially after she became pregnant, her thoughts slowly changed.
She still disdains high-ranking officials. But the situation is too chaotic, the status of the Fu family is sensitive, and Fu Dayong and Fu Yunkai are not in the capital. Fu Yunlang can't count on it, so it's good that He doesn't hold back. If she doesn't care, it's hard to say whether the Pingnan Hou Mansion can survive this storm. She also doesn't want her husband to be too tired, she wants to share something for him.
She doesn't care about others, she just hopes that her husband and children can survive well in this world.
So she can only come down from the clouds and care about the political situation and current affairs.
She will carefully read each issue of the Di Bao and the "Qiming Xun Bao" as well as the new "Da Jin Xun Bao" run by the Dajin government, and take the initiative to understand the trends of the court.
She is a dedicated and serious person. In the past, she focused on learning, but now it has shifted to the court, and the bystanders are clear, and she can see the situation more clearly than many of the court ministers in the bureau.
"You're doing the right thing." Mu Qingqiang said.
Zhao Ruxi has always been her idol.
Now that Zhao Ruxi chooses to marry Xiao Lingyan, Mu Qingqiang intuitively feels that Xiao Lingyan is not an ordinary person.
Zhao Ruxi can't even look down on Fu Yunkai, how can he marry a mediocre person just because of the title of a prince, and let himself and his family get involved in the war for succession?
Therefore, Xiao Lingyan can be looked at by Zhao Ruxi, he is definitely not a mediocre man who can only follow King An, assist him, and live by a little gift from him after he ascends the throne.
Seeing this clearly, Mu Qingqiang mentioned Fu Yunkai: Although the Fu family is tied to the boat of the second and fifth princes and the Cen family, don't rush to the front in the struggle for the heir, and don't stand in line too obviously, especially don't offend the fifth prince for the sake of the second prince.
I don't know who will make it to the top.
Fu Yunkai has been trying his best to let the Fu family survive in the cracks. Now that he has a wife and children, he is even more reluctant to take risks.
So he agreed with his wife's statement.
"But if you don't care about taking care of the house, I'm afraid it's not a matter of whether you can't make friends with the future Princess Qi, but a big offense to her." Mu Qingqiang said.
Fu Yunkai's brows furrowed: "What happened at home?" ”
He and Fu Yunlang didn't get married before, he didn't worry about the He family, they were all at home and outside the house, they had to worry about everything, everything.
Later, the brothers got married one after another, and he couldn't care much about the affairs of his brother's yard. He handed over the stewardship of the inner house to his wife.
He has a bad temperament, but he is a very inflammatory.
Mu Qingqiang is the daughter of the Mu family, with a good family background, a positive background, and a very talented person, and the He family is ashamed of herself in front of her.
In addition, Fu Yunkai has never given much face to his mother, and he ignores her when he is unreasonable, and he will not press his wife to be filial to his mother-in-law. He's reputation is not good, if she goes outside to say that Mu's is not filial, others will only say that her mother-in-law is not good.
So she didn't stand up to her mother-in-law's shelf in front of Mu Qingqiang.
She doesn't make trouble, although the maiden family of Miss Cen Shi, who married in later, is stronger than the Mu family, she is a concubine. The status of her mother is low, and she is more beautiful than others, and she was excluded by her sisters in the Cen family before. She didn't have much confidence in front of Mu Qingqiang.
Therefore, Mu Qingqiang managed this family, and it was generally okay, and there was no big mess.
But small contradictions and small frictions have always existed.
Mu Qingqiang told the He family and the Cen family about Zhao Rurui.
She said: "Don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha." Although Zhao Rurui is just Zhiwei's cousin in the next room, but your family bullies her so much, saying it is not giving face to the future Princess Qi, and it is to look down on His Royal Highness King Qi. Although the matter is small, the consequences are serious. You have to talk to your mother and brother about this. ”
