Chapter 489: Sold to the Emperor's Family
But what do you get now? Suddenly looking back, Qin Zipei found that she had gained far more than she had lost!
She is reconciled and divorced, and people and his wife are still having a good time, saying that his wife married him when he was most depressed, he can't be sorry for her, let himself wait.
Now that she is not young, she gave up the husband who loved her to the bones, gave up the position of wife, but made an unsightly outer room for others, how many people can understand her bitterness?
The path I chose at the beginning, even if I was kneeling, I had to go down, and I would never look back even if my head was broken and bleeding.
Cher is not like her, she can still choose to take the path she wants, even if it is clearly a point of no return.
But Xue'er can't resist, whether she wants to or not, Xue'er can only be sold to the emperor's family in this life.
For herself, but also for the Dong family, for the men of the Dong family.
This is a journey that can't see the road ahead, and whether she can reach the end safely depends on herself, and no one can help.
Those who have experienced it have the most power to speak, but Wu Zhaodi, who has not experienced it, also fell silent.
Before, everyone was envious of Xue'er, but now they all have more or less other ideas in their hearts.
They are not little ladies who are indifferent to everything, and they have more or less watched some short things in the family at home.
I didn't think about it deeply at the time, but now that I think about it carefully, I can't help but feel resistant to marriage.
Shui Yunshuang is usually nosy, but who is it right, Xue'er is the cousin she has always admired and envied, and her cousin has helped them a lot over the years and taught them a lot.
Intentionally or unintentionally, she is also learning from her cousin's behavior and her temperament.
But even such a good cousin will encounter such a situation, what about them? In any case, they are not comparable to their cousins, so what will the marriage they will face in the future?
"Okay, don't think about it so much, it's rare to get out of Changhai County, borrow Xue'er's light, let's have a good rest today, and when we have time tomorrow, we can walk around, and we can brag when we go back!" Dong Changqiu said with a big grin.
Also in the guest garden where the male guests lived, Dong Chengze and Dong Chengqing came to dine with everyone early in the morning.
When the morning meal is withdrawn, replace it with warm tea.
Dong Changhu saw that the two brothers Dong Chengze seemed to have something to say, so he said to Yun Jiaju: "Don't you want to take a good look at Youwang's Mansion?" Let the next person accompany you to the house! β
Yun Jiaju's concept is that his mother and uncle are big, and he has always been complacent about being the uncle of Princess You, but he was cowardly when he encountered a big scene, especially after seeing so many nobles yesterday, he didn't dare to say a superfluous word, if it wasn't for Dong Changhu to help play the round, he would have been embarrassed a long time ago.
Now without Dong Changhu by his side, he really didn't dare to go out and walk around, he was a little short of breath and said: "His third uncle is not going to take a look?" β
"Yes, if the third brother goes out, we will follow, if there is no third brother, I will not go." The second brother-in-law is also a stage fright, he puts his position very right, that is, he doesn't cause trouble, he doesn't come out, it's right to follow the third brother, and his wife also told him so.
Zhang Wenbin is not a person who is afraid of things, he can't wait to show himself at this time, maybe he will fall into the eyes of his cousin-in-law and reward him as an official.
He rolled his eyes and patted his chest: "The third uncle seems to have something to say to the two cousins, let's go out for a walk, if the two elders don't go, Chengyi and a few of us go out, how about it?" β
Dong Chengyi slandered in his heart, he really didn't look down on Zhang Wenbin's self-righteous appearance, he was sticking to himself along the way, and if he had to bet with himself, he had never met such a cheeky person.
Although he also likes to play two, he has never played with familiar people, and he only wins or loses dozens of copper plates, and he has no intention of gambling.
Now that he is in the palace, he just doesn't want to cause trouble for Xue'er, as for the scenery, he wants to see it, but not at this time.
He smiled: "I'm too tired all the way, let's take a rest today, and then the two princesses and horses of the dynasty are here, let's be cautious, don't bump into the nobles, and make it difficult for Xue'er to do it when the time comes!" β
Dong Changhu also thought of it and nodded approvingly.
Dong Chengyi continued: "Third uncle, you can tell me something, I will take my younger brothers to my residence to rest first!" β
Zhang Wenbin is just a good performer and takes advantage of small advantages, which does not mean that he is a fool.
Knowing that Dong Chengyi's words were reasonable, he also pulled Yun Jiaju and said, "Then I will accompany my uncle to talk to him." β
The second brother-in-law also flashed when he saw this.
There were only three people left in the room before Dong Changhu opened his mouth and asked, "Cheng Ze, do you have something on your mind?" The third uncle saw that you have been preoccupied since yesterday.
Yesterday, I saw that you handled it decently, and nothing happened! If you have anything to say, you can say it directly to the third uncle, and there is nothing to say between our uncle and nephew! β
Dong Chengze raised his eyes, and there was a look in his eyes that didn't match his age: "Third uncle, I don't know if I'm too sensitive, I always feel that those subordinates know that my brother and I want to live in the mansion permanently, and the eyes of me and my brother are not right."
The eldest sister said that a person's strength is not on the surface, but in the heart, only when the heart is extremely strong, can he achieve himself and shelter those who want to shelter.
But I'm really worried that because of my brother and I, my sister will be difficult.
My sister doesn't have a strong mother's backing, so it's not easy to stand up in the palace, and my brother and I can only make it more difficult for her here!
I had concerns about this before, so I had been prepared for a long time, but when I actually faced it, I realized that my previous thinking was still a little naΓ―ve. β
Dong Changhu didn't answer his question directly, but said from a different angle: "Cheng Ze, you have been out with your fourth uncle for two years, and you have also traveled a lot of places, right!" β
Although Dong Chengze didn't know why, he still nodded.
"Then you have traveled so many places and gone to the imperial capital, how do you feel?" He asked again.
Dong Chengze affirmed: "There are naturally a lot of feelings! β
"Then tell me about it."
"At first, I was just interested in the scenery along the way, but I was not interested in going to more places, but I had some opinions on the livelihood of each place.
The policies formulated today are all summing up the experience of the ancestors, and those policies are really good for the people, but the most important thing for the livelihood of a place is the implementation ability of the local officials and their own style.
In the future, if I am an official, I will definitely be a good official, a clean and honest official, and a capable official who can be the master of the people. β
Dong Changhu nodded approvingly, what his nephew said was right, and he was also deeply touched by this.
