Chapter 288: No last resort
Dong Chengyi has a reputation for showing off his talents, and he can take concubines, so the Geng family doesn't dare to be embarrassed now, and only hopes that he can get a man in one fell swoop after marriage and gain a firm foothold in the Dong family.
Then try to hold Lang Jun's heart and try to prevent him from taking a concubine.
Dong Xiucai and the Qin family are unwilling, or the entire Dong family has prejudices against the Geng family, but it is a fait accompli, and it is useless to say anything.
Therefore, everyone forced a smile to entertain the guests who came to congratulate them.
This time the Dong family did business, and all those who were related to each other, or who could get involved, came to congratulate them in person, not because of the face of Dong Xiucai and Dong Changjiang, but because of the face of the county marquis, and I also hoped to have a relationship with the future princess You.
Among these relatives, Xue'er was most impressed by her uncle's family.
Compared with the arrogance of a few years ago, this family is now more and more down-to-earth.
When I saw Xue'er, I stepped forward to set it up.
Since Xuanyuan Che pulled out Zou Xiancheng a few years ago, although Qin San'er is still beautiful, he has converged a lot.
He knew his nephew and knew that Dong Changhe was a coward, even if he became a marquis, he would not use this to bully others and help the Qin family.
Therefore, the Qin family's gambling houses, loan sharks and other shady industries have automatically stopped doing it, and now they are doing legitimate business.
Aunt Qin Zijin now accepts her daughter to live in her mother's garden, living alone, and this time she also led her daughter to congratulate her in person, although she still doesn't talk much, but her attitude is very low.
The second aunt Qin Zipei still gives people a feeling of superiority, but her attitude towards Xue'er has changed one hundred and eighty degrees, and she intentionally or unintentionally asks about her relationship with His Royal Highness King You.
Last time, my sister-in-law had no time to talk to them, but this time there was plenty of incident, so I was entangled.
is not disgusted with snobbish people Xue'er, but she also doesn't like to have a deep relationship with such a person, so she is simply perfunctory.
Fortunately, her identity is there, and they can't do anything with her.
Compared with Qin Zipei Geng's family, it is undoubtedly lucky, in this era, it is not easy for a woman to meet a man with affection and righteousness, and she is undoubtedly lucky at this point.
Everyone has different feelings about happiness, Geng feels that she is very happy, at least she married the person she likes, and married into what she thinks is a rich family.
Her favorite thing is to go back to her parents' house to show off her achievements.
Geng was not favored at home, and like most young ladies of this era, he was born in a patriarchal family.
There is also a big brother who is spoiled as a bastard, robbing houses, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling.
Since she was a child, the money she had accumulated by embroidering and weaving with her mother had been lost by her eldest brother, and even so, her father and mother still doted on her eldest brother.
It's just that no matter how bad a person is, he also has his soft side, her brother loves her more, and always secretly hides some delicious food for this sister, and will also give her some good clothes and fun outside, so the relationship between the brother and sister has always been good.
Therefore, when Geng got married, he almost didn't bring any dowry, and almost all the dowry gifts sent by Cai's were left by Geng's eldest brother.
Of course, there are reasons why her parents are patriarchal and oriented towards her brother, but there is no element of her own volition.
Soon after Geng's marriage, the Geng family built a new house, and her eldest brother quickly decided on a family affair, and is expected to get married next year, of course, this is all a later story.
Since Geng married into the Dong family, his favorite thing to do is to come to Xue'er when he has something to do, with all kinds of strange excuses.
She is very good at stammering, her mouth is sweet, she is very eloquent, she can open her face, and she can bend down.
Although there are genetic reasons for the formation of a person's personality, the environment in which they grow up also plays a key role.
Geng has an older brother who is a bastard, and the ruffians in his brother have a more or less profound influence on him.
Xue'er felt that Geng's body was full of ruffianism, if it was a different era, maybe she could become an authentic female hooligan.
She had been an orphan in her previous life and had dealt with all kinds of people, so she had a lot of experience with such people.
It's just that for the sake of Dong Chengyi's face, it's not easy to do too much.
Geng is about the same size as her, she said that she likes Xue'er's clothes and jewelry, Xue'er gave her a few, she said she liked Xue'er's flower tea, and Xue'er asked Qiao'er to bring her a jar......
Neither distant nor close, nor will they say anything considerate to them.
It's not that she's generous, it's not that she's afraid of Geng's character, it's mainly that Dong Chengyi is doing things for himself now, and the pillow wind has to be guarded against.
Xue'er knows that her cousin is smart and good-looking, so if he knows about this matter, he will definitely handle it.
As for how Dong Chengyi knows, of course, it depends on Geng's own boasting.
She took advantage of Xue'er, she couldn't hide her words, and showed off vigorously in front of her husband, boasting that she had an unusual relationship with Xue'er, the county lord, saying that she fell into Xue'er's eyes and became friends who talked about everything.
Geng Shi spoke with "spoils of war", and belittled Dong Yun'er in and out of his words.
Cher is convinced that her cousin also understands herself, otherwise he would not be the eldest brother she relies on.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Dong Chengyi to find out, and ordered Geng not to disturb Xue'er anymore, not to ask Xue'er for things again, and not to exclude his sister.
Xue'er's life is finally a lot quieter, and Dong Yun'er also recognizes her sister-in-law and stays away from her.
The two maids admired Xue'er's five-body throwing, and at first they were very puzzled by Xue'er's kindness to this Geng's family, and even asked Xue'er the reason many times.
Xue'er explained it simply, but neither of them believed it.
Now that the facts are in front of them, the two have to admit that Xue'er has no last resort.
On this day, the second aunt Dong Changqiu came to the door, and after greeting the Yun family, she saw Xue'er alone with her pregnant belly.
The aunt and nephew hadn't seen each other for a long time, Dong Changqiu was in a good mood, and pulled Xue'er to talk about many short things in the family.
Cher occasionally chimed in, mostly laughing and listening.
Regardless of whether she listened to her ears or not, she had a good attitude, and she won Dong Changqiu's favor.
This is also an experience that she has summed up in her two lives, when talking to others, she is often a good listener, who can win the favor of the other party more, and is more popular with the other party than boastful talk.
Obedient people also need to be able to listen, mainly how to hear the other party's voice.
Dong Changqiu came to visit with his stomach up, not to say that he was idle, but most importantly, he wanted to learn how to design hairpins from Xue'er.
She felt that it was not a long-term solution to process hairpins for the county marquis, after all, most of the hairpins were designed by Xue'er.
If Xue'er and Empress Lu get married, this business will not be able to do it by relying on the Yun family alone. Cher knew this, and she saw it.
