Chapter 29 Meticulous
Meng Jiao's words really talked about Meng Zhongting's heart, he wanted to raise Tao Xing as the third lady early on, but because Tao Xing was from a humble background, and he also had Liu Qingqing's affection, this matter has been dragged on like this.
Now, Meng Jiao, the lady of the command, opened his mouth, how could he be unreasonable?
"The concubine is from a humble background, and now it is a blessing to be able to fill the house and serve the master, but I don't dare to ask for the position of the lady, and the concubine is not attached to these vacant positions, it is enough to have children by the master's side."
Meng Zhongting didn't speak yet, Tao Xing spoke humbly, she is now pregnant with a child, and the gentleness of this bow is even more fascinating, plus this is very sincere, Meng Zhongting simply doesn't know how to love her.
"Xing'er, why should you be arrogant, what you are pregnant with now is my child, if you get a man in one fell swoop, you are the only male in our Meng family, you are naturally a noble person, so what does it matter if you are from a humble background? As the saying goes, heroes don't ask where they come from, so you don't have to worry about it. ”
"What my father said is that my aunt is now pregnant, and she is naturally the most valuable person in our house, in fact, raising you as a lady is not just for you, the most important thing is that if you get a man in one fell swoop, you will not say it, the mother of the eldest young master in our house is a house-filling girl, this is too unseemly."
Meng Jiao still looked like a smile, but what she said made Meng Zhongting nod uncontrollably, why didn't he think that with the child's future identity as a bargaining chip, he could give Taoxing a position openly.
"It's rare that the little lady thinks so thoroughly, Xing'er, don't shirk it, you just need to take care of the fetus now, and I will naturally do it all for you, it's not early, the meal outside should also be prepared, please go and sit down first."
"I'm not busy, I still have one more thing to tell my father, although I did it according to my father's wishes to raise my aunt to be my wife, but I am still closer to Erniang in my heart, so I hope my father can explain this matter by himself and don't let Erniang know that this matter is related to me."
Meng Jiao and Tao Xing exchanged a look without a trace, Meng Zhongting didn't know the twists and turns, so he agreed, now there is nothing more important for him than to raise Tao Xing as his wife.
Meng Zhongting's speech was quite reliable, and when he arrived at the banquet, he did bear the stubble of raising Tao Xing as his wife, Meng Jiao was silent next to him, Liu Qingqing was really not sure if this matter had anything to do with Meng Jiao.
"The master is right, Sister Taoxing is pregnant, so she should naturally be promoted to be a lady, but the concubine still thinks about it, after all, after being a lady, she wants the little lady to shout a sentence Sanniang, if the little lady has no opinion, the concubine will have no opinion."
Since she wasn't sure whether it was related to Meng Jiao, Liu Qingqing simply went straight to Meng Jiao and picked on Meng Jiao, so she couldn't help but reply.
"Father's family affairs, naturally by the father to decide, although I am a lady, but in the end I am still the father's daughter, who does the father want to carry as a wife, how can I say a lot as a daughter, but Erniang rest assured, no matter what, I will always be close to Erniang."
Meng Jiao understated this matter, Meng Zhongting was also willing to hold on to this matter, plus Meng Jiao's words were towards Liu Qingqing, the latter had no reason to suspect anything, and only cared about how to get rid of Tao Xing, but he didn't know, this was exactly what Meng Jiao wanted.
This meal, except for Liu Qingqing, all returned happy, especially Meng Jiao, seeing Liu Qingqing's face that was about to turn purple, a kind of happiness rose unconsciously in her heart.
"The little lady has done a good job today, picking herself cleanly, and being able to achieve the results she wants, which is really good."
"In today's game, Liu Qingqing walked in completely, and the next thing is to wait quietly, waiting for her to start repeating her old tricks, and we plan to find out the truth about her mother's death back then."
Meng Jiao walked in the snow, looking at the half-hidden moon in the sky, and there was no joy or sorrow in her expression, but Mama Lin knew that this little girl, who was only thirteen or fourteen years old, had already carried too many and too heavy things, she had never really smiled, even if she was honored now, she had not seriously enjoyed it.
Tao Xing's matter is temporary, the next most important thing is the Queen Mother's winter solstice banquet, I don't know if I don't inquire, this time because the Queen Mother and Concubine Nankang held a banquet at the same time, many women are on the way, most of them are lacking in skills, either offended Concubine Nankang, or offended the Queen Mother.
Seeing that the second day is the winter solstice feast, the best of both worlds, there is only one Meng Jiao, the queen mother agreed to go to the banquet, and Concubine Nankang also properly solved it so as not to be hated.
"It stands to reason that the little lady is now in the third grade, and to attend this kind of feast, she has to wear crow blue, but... The little lady is too young, and I'm afraid that wearing crow blue will look a little nondescript, which is really difficult. ”
"Yes, now I'm worried about this dress, if the little lady is a little higher and a little lower, it's easy to say, a little higher can wear the phoenix fire sent by Shen Shuai, and a little lower there is that Tianshui blue clothes, but it is the third grade, and the crow blue clothes are difficult for us to match."
On the first night of the winter solstice feast, Cui Sleeve and Cui Yue began to worry, crow blue, it is indeed an extremely atmospheric color, but Meng Jiao is too young now, and she can't hold up the plan, but the rules are here, and it is not easy to change.
While he was talking, the curtain outside was lifted, and Cui Jin hurriedly ran in from the outside, followed by a maid with a raw face, Cui Sleeve hurriedly came out of the inner room to ask.
"Don't be busy asking, this is the maid next door, I heard you two talking about the crow blue clothes from outside, you two don't have to worry, won't the skilled craftsman be sent over?"
Cui Jin didn't understand Cui Sleeve's words, but he knew that this maid was Shen Yunxiao's person, pursed his lips and smiled, then put his heart at ease, and led people in to see Meng Jiao, who was listening to Cui Sleeve and Cui Yue's nagging and fell asleep.
"Little lady, wake up, Shen Shuai has sent someone over for you."
"Slave Tan Shao, meet the little lady, the slave is the maid on Shen Shuai's house, and she used to serve the old lady Shen to dress up and change clothes, Shen Shuai knows that the little lady is going to attend the banquet tomorrow, I am afraid that there is no suitable clothes to match, so I sent the slave and maid to send the clothes over, and besides, the little lady will dress up tomorrow, and the slave and maid can also help."
