Chapter 71: Secret talk, willing to be a concubine
"Master, Yu'er is our daughter-in-law, how can she do it...... Concubine. Mrs. Du was really ashamed to say the word "concubine".
She is a wife, and she doesn't look down on concubines in her heart, so how can she let her daughter be a concubine?
What's more, what is the situation of a woman who is a concubine, Mrs. Du knows it very well in her heart. There are a few concubines in Lord Du's backyard, and Mrs. Du tosses those women a lot on weekdays. If her daughter became a concubine, what would happen in the future, Mrs. Du almost didn't dare to imagine.
However, Master Du didn't pay attention to her, but looked at Du Ziyu intently, "Yu'er, you have to understand that Gongzi Xie doesn't mean that to you, and there is probably no hope of being a wife." If you are asked to be Gongzi Xie's concubine, are you willing? ”
Xie Tianxing had no intention of her, Master Du was not the first person to say this.
Du Ziyu's fingers clenched tightly, Huo Sijin also said such things, but she felt that Huo Sijin was unwilling to fulfill her, so she deliberately said this to make her selfish. But Master Du is her biological father, and he speaks in such a serious and serious tone, Du Ziyu has to think deeply, is it true that Gongzi Xie has no intention of her?
"Gongzi Xie has only seen his daughter twice, if he sees him a few more times, maybe he will change his mind......" Du Ziyu was unwilling, she liked Xie Tianxing and wanted to marry him as his wife.
The status of the concubine is too low, and the concubine has to be controlled by the lady of the main room, such as the father's several concubines, and they don't even have many opportunities to see their father on weekdays. If she became Xie Tianxing's concubine, wouldn't she have to stay alone in the empty room in the future and suffer from lovesickness?
Lord Du shook his head, "Yu'er, you have to know that whether it is Master Huo or Gongzi Xie, they are all from the capital, how many noble women are in the capital, how many women are beautiful in appearance, and how many women are both talented and beautiful, and Gongzi Xie is the brother of His Royal Highness the Prince's mother's family, it is almost impossible for you to get into his eyes." ”
"Yu'er, if you want to marry Gongzi Xie, you can only be a concubine." Master Du emphasized again.
Du Ziyu bit the corner of her lip, the words "can only be a concubine" fell on her heart, and it hurt a little, but she had to admit that what her father said was right. In Huzhou, she is the most beautiful girl, but how does she compare to the women in the capital? She was afraid that she didn't even have a foothold.
"I do!" Du Ziyu gritted her teeth and said, "As long as I can be with Gongzi Xie, even if it is a concubine, I am willing." ”
Gongzi Xie is the man who makes her heart move, she has never seen a man as handsome and noble as him, even if she can only be a humble concubine, she admits it.
"Okay, Yu'er, Daddy will definitely find a way to make you achieve what you want." Master Du nodded.
Mrs. Du's brows furrowed tightly, and she clearly heard that when Master Du said this, there was a trace of joy in her tone.
My daughter is going to be someone else's concubine, what's there to be happy about?
"Sir." Mrs. Du called out to Master Du.
Master Du first said to Du Ziyu: "Yu'er, you go back and freshen up first." Dad and Mom will come to see you later. ”
"Yes, my daughter is leaving." Du Ziyu saluted and left obediently.
In the study, only Lord Du and Mrs. Du were left, and there was no one else, Mrs. Du hurriedly asked: "Master, what do you think, Yu'er is your concubine, but you let her be a concubine, how can this be done?" ”
Considering that Lord Du is her husband, Mrs. Du has spoken as tactfully as possible, originally she wanted to question, let her concubine be a concubine, and do such a shameful thing?
"Madam, if I could, how could I have been willing to let Yu'er be a concubine, but I really have no other way."
Lord Du sighed, his tone was quite heavy, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's people are already investigating me, and the incident will happen soon, and I can't hide everything I've done over the years." ”
"Today, the five princes have sent someone, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has secretly checked the disaster relief money over the years, and asked me to destroy all the information immediately, if I am unfortunately caught, I must not confide in the five princes, if I dare to confide half a word, they will immediately take the lives of my wife and children."
Hearing this, Mrs. Du's face turned pale.
Lord Du smiled sadly, "The people of the five princes almost didn't say it directly, if the matter is revealed, all the blame will be borne by me, Du Yancai." Madam, I knew that the fifth prince was unreliable, but I couldn't help it, I got on his boat, and I couldn't get off again. ”
"Master, what now?" Mrs. Du's eyes couldn't help but burst into tears, if the matter was revealed, embezzlement of disaster relief funds was a big crime, not only Lord Du would not have a good end, but even their family members would not have a good life even if they did not die.
Lord Du sighed, "How much silver I have stained over the years, this matter cannot be hidden, for today's plan, I can only take refuge in His Royal Highness the Prince, I have the account book in my hand, how much disaster relief money the five princes have been greedy for over the years, and the account books are clearly remembered." ”
"But it's not enough to have account books, so I want to marry Yu'er to Gongzi Xie as a concubine. Gongzi Xie is a person from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, if he is willing to speak for us, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may spare us. ”
Master Du said earnestly: "Madam, if I can, how can I be willing to let Yu'er be a concubine, but I have no other way, only in this way can I keep us." ”
"But ......" Having said that, Mrs. Du was still a little hesitant, "But Yu'er is a concubine, let her be a concubine, this is ......"
Master Du hurriedly took over, "Madam, I know you are reluctant to Yu'er, but if you think about it from another angle, Yu'er likes Gongzi Xie and asks her to be a concubine for Gongzi Xie, and she is also happy in her heart." As parents, why don't we fulfill her? ”
Seeing that Mrs. Du was still struggling, Lord Du immediately said: "Madam, think about it carefully, if you don't do this, even if I don't dedicate the account books to His Royal Highness the Prince, maybe I can save my life, but most of my career is over, Yu'er will no longer be the daughter of the official family in the future, at that time, how should she deal with herself, and which noble son is willing to marry her?" ”
Lord Du's words were conclusive, so that Mrs. Du couldn't help but sway, if Lord Du's career is over, how should they deal with themselves in the future?
Seeing that Mrs. Du had already swayed, Lord Du struck while the iron was hot, "Instead of letting Yu'er live a hard life in the future, it is better to let her be Gongzi Xie's concubine first." I kept my official position, and I will find a way to rise a few levels in the future, Yu'er has a stable mother's family, and it is not impossible to correct in the future. ”
Mrs. Du, who said this, even dispelled the last trace of regret, Du Ziyu's concubine is temporary, and there will be no chance to correct it in the future.
"What the master said is the same, but since Gongzi Xie has no intention of our Yu'er, how can he agree to let Yu'er be his concubine?" Mrs. Du asked.
It's a question, people say it doesn't mean that anymore, so what should I do?
Master Du's eyes drooped slightly, and he muttered: "If you have enough time, you can let Yu'er and Gongzi Xie have more contact, as long as Gongzi Xie has a good impression of our Yu'er, then this matter will be easy to handle." ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already started to investigate, where is there so much time." Mrs. Du was in a hurry, seeing that the incident was about to happen, where could there be enough time. The love affair between men and women is inherently mysterious, but it cannot be promoted overnight.
Master Du nodded, and then said slowly: "So, for today's plan, I can only let Yu'er suffer some grievances." The Xie family of Zhengguo Mansion is a high-ranking family, and it should pay the most attention to etiquette and upbringing, if Gongzi Xie and Yu'er have ......"
Master Du paused, hesitated for a while, closed his mouth one by one, and spit out in a low voice: "If Gongzi Xie and Yu'er have a skin-to-skin relationship, then he will definitely accept Yu'er." ”
Skin-to-skin kiss, this is an elegant statement, in other words, it is actually to let Du Ziyu climb into Xie Tianxing's bed.
Mrs. Du bit her chin tightly, "Master, is there no other way?" ”
In fact, before Lord Du said this method, Mrs. Du had already thought of it, she was a woman, and she knew best what means the women in the back house had. It's just that this method is too embarrassing, and it's all dirty things that only the little concubine and aunt did.
Aunt Concubine...... Mrs. Du immediately thought about it, isn't her daughter Ziyu just someone else's concubine?
Master Du sighed heavily, shook his head and said, "No, this is the only way." ”
He rubbed his eyebrows, he was originally a poor student, and he was proud to be familiar with the books of sages, but now what he is doing is against the way of sages.
Let his daughter climb into the man's bed and take the trouble to be a concubine, he feels very ashamed to say such a thing.
"Madam, Yu'er is young, I don't know how to do it, you teach her more."
Tears flowed down her cheeks, and Mrs. Du nodded her head in tears, "Okay, I'll teach her." ”
The daughter she raised with hard work originally expected that she would marry into a high gate openly, live comfortably with fine clothes and food all her life, who would have thought that her daughter could only be a concubine who did not enter the stream.
And she, a mother, now has to teach her daughter how to climb into a man's bed.
Mrs. Du felt heartache when she thought about it, saying that she was also letting her daughter achieve her wishes, but in fact, it was not their parents who were abusing their daughter. Du Ziyu is their biological daughter, the biological daughter who has been pampered and raised since childhood.
Lord Du looked at the tearful lady, and his heart was also choked up, he was familiar with the books of sages, and he couldn't see dirty things, but now he did it himself.
But no matter how uncomfortable he felt in his heart, Master Du could only say: "Madam, if Yu'er can't figure it out, if you enlighten her more, we really have no choice." ”
He really had no other way, so he could only let Du Ziyu make a little sacrifice.
Master Du kept comforting himself in his heart: it was actually worth it to let her daughter make a little sacrifice in exchange for the safety of their whole family.
