Chapter 80: The Sorrow of the Concubine
On this day, Mo Jinglin had something to do, and he didn't come to Lin Yue, so Lin Yue took Xiu'er to the teahouse to drink tea to pass the time, here, there is really nothing to pass the time, you say go shopping, just a few shops, listen to music, she doesn't love it, read books, and there are few books that can be seen. So I was bored, so I had to listen to the voices in the teahouse, and it was not too quiet.
"Miss Lin, what a coincidence."
Lin Yue looked up and saw that it was Ye Jia, so he nodded as a greeting.
"Why is Miss Lin sitting outside and not looking for a private room?"
Lin Yue smiled and said, "But if you want to hear some sounds, what's the difference between being in a private room and being trapped in a mansion." It's Miss Ye, if you're so free, didn't you hear that your marriage is approaching? ”
"Speaking of marriage, Miss Lin's marriage is also coming soon. No, I'm free. Ye Jia said as she sat down. Seeing this, Lin Yue motioned for Xiu'er to pour tea for her.
"Speaking of the wedding date, probably Miss Ye is relatively close, I still have a few months."
"Although there are still a few months left, Miss Lin is married to a relative of the emperor, so there should be a lot of things to prepare. If you are like me, marry a concubine and fill the house, how can there be anything to prepare. I heard that the prince also specially invited Qingyue from Qingshui Hall to make a wedding dress for Miss Lin. ”
Lin Yue thought to herself, there are people who love to spread gossip everywhere, and even her wedding dress is not embroidered by herself but asked someone to do it, and some people gossip about it, here, women are more proud of their wedding dresses, and they don't do it themselves, it is estimated that this rumor is not very good, so he lazily replied, "I was born in a family of military generals, and these female workers are not as interested in fists and feet, if I am asked to embroider a wedding dress, I am afraid that I will lose the royal face if I take out my hand." It's better to let others embroider. ”
Ye Jia felt that Lin Yue would not even be ashamed of being a female worker, so she deliberately mentioned the wedding dress, but she didn't think that Lin Yue would admit it indifferently, and that attitude made her feel that those of them who worked hard to make their own wedding dresses were simply asking for hardship, and she was not very happy in her heart, so she continued, "Sure enough, what comes out is different." It's like me, a concubine, and I don't have a mother, even if I get married, no one will do it for me, and I have to work day and night to complete this wedding dress. ”
"I think even if Miss Ye didn't make her own wedding dress, your mother-in-law would still prepare it for you." Lin Yue said disapprovingly.
"Miss Lin is a concubine, and she can't understand the sorrow of our concubines. It sounds like a young lady in the Taifu Mansion, but it's not as good as the daughter of a small family. How can the housewife carefully pay attention to the marriage for us concubines, but just find someone to live in. Of course, if you can make the wedding dress yourself, after all, if you borrow someone else's hand, it is another expense, and the housewife can even save the dowry, so where is she willing to pay this expense. Ye Jia took a sip of tea before continuing, "I didn't have my mother when I was a child, and I don't like you who can follow your father." It was a marriage, and there was no mother to consider it on my behalf, and my father would not take it to heart, so he could only be sent away by his mother at will. ”
"Why did Miss Ye tell me these things today, you must know that the affairs of your Ye family, I am not an outsider to intervene." Lin Yue looked at Ye Jia and didn't feel that she was just spitting out bitterness to herself.
"Miss Lin misunderstood, but Ye Jia was depressed, and there was no one to say, seeing Miss Lin, it was inevitable that she would say a few more words that should not be said, and please forgive Miss Lin." Ye Jia was only happy to hear Lin Yue say this, after all, she was a concubine, and she was a young lady who was deeply favored by her parents, how could she understand their concubines. Thinking of this, Ye Jia was even more unhappy, these concubines were all superior to themselves, why did she say those words to Lin Yue, did she expect her to understand herself? It's ridiculous. Thinking of this, Ye Jia didn't want to sit for a while, so she got up and said, "Excuse me Miss Lin, Ye Jia said goodbye." With that, he turned and walked away.
Lin Yue watched Ye Jia leave, and she could feel the resentment when she left, but this was not something that she Lin Yue could control. I couldn't help but think in my heart, what if she was just a young lady from the General's Mansion today? In fact, compared to Ye Jia, she is good, at least marriage, much better than Ye Jia. It's just that I don't know what kind of people those sisters in their house will meet in the future? When Lin Yue thought of this, she couldn't help but feel sad for these women.
In fact, if you think about it, don't say that they are concubines, even Lin Yue, who is born, can't help themselves in marriage, right? It's just that because it's a concubine, relatively speaking, you can marry a powerful person as a wife. As for what kind of person the married husband is, who can know, it's just a matter of resignation.
"Xiu'er, you said, if I wasn't Miss Yan in the house today, would I be like Ye Jia, and I was sent away by my mother to find someone's home." knew the answer, but Lin Yue still asked Xiu'er.
"Miss was born to be the young lady of the General's Mansion, what if." Xiu'er guessed that Lin Yue was influenced by Ye Jia's words and thought wildly, "Besides, our lady is a kind-hearted person, and when those young ladies in the house reach the age of marriage, Xiu'er believes that Mrs. will find a good family for them." ”
When Lin Yue heard this, she stopped talking, after all, An Yuyan is still a good housewife, but she doesn't know if she will find a good family for them, after all, not only did it not come out of her own belly, but it also came out of the belly of a woman who shared a husband with her. How many women would genuinely accept these children?
Seeing that Lin Yue was no longer talking, Xiu'er continued, "Miss, why are you in a bad mood under the influence of Miss Ye? Look at how good the prince is to you, looking at the entire Mingyue Dynasty, the person who can beat the prince twice and retreat with his whole body is also Miss You, it can be seen that the prince has Miss in his heart. ”
When Lin Yue heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Silly Xiu'er, right now the prince is feeling fresh and curious about me, so he can tolerate me for many things, once he doesn't have me in his heart in the future, do you think he will treat me like this?" I've heard a saying before, 'What you say when I like you is what you are, and what you say you are when I don't like you.'" Do you know what that means? Seeing Xiu'er shaking her head, Lin Yue continued, "Anyway, once you like someone, whatever she does, she thinks everything is right, and once she doesn't like it, even if it's just a little thing, you think she's making trouble unreasonably." At the moment, the prince is good to me, but it is difficult to guarantee that he will not like me in the future, so whatever I do will feel bad in his eyes. ”
After Lin Yue finished speaking, she drank the tea, and then led Xiu'er back to her house, as for whether Xiu'er could understand what she just said, she didn't care.
