056. The harm of being generous
Qingrong thought about it again and again, and felt that he should tell Song Zhao about it.
No matter which aunt buys the doctor, or Guan Heqiu wants to hide it from the end, it is nothing more than for her. She felt that she should poke this thing out, and it was a hundred times.
But the current situation is a little embarrassing, after all, she shouldn't know that Guan Heqiu is pregnant.
Qingrong was pondering when he heard someone outside: "Lord Shizi." ”
When I looked up, I saw a young man in a cyan brocade robe and a jade belt around his waist entering the door.
Song Zhao smiled at her and said, "You will buy people's hearts, and now people inside and outside the mansion are talking about you." ”
Qingrong squinted at Song Zhao slightly, but felt that there was nothing good about him coming.
"I want to do something with good intentions, but when you say this, I won't dare to do this kind of thing in the future."
Song Zhao smiled and sat down on the Luohan couch to face to face with Qingrong, "Why did you suddenly think of this, usually when there is a illness in the house, you will invite a doctor to come and see." ”
Qingrong said coldly: "Isn't it good to prevent problems before they happen?" ”
Song Zhao was a little embarrassed, coughed, and said, "The tall doctor commonly used in the house is also very good, so why bother to invite someone from outside." Doctor Gao, you know. Have you seen it, or are you feeling uncomfortable these days......"
Qingrong felt that his appearance of having nothing to say was really annoying, so he interrupted him indifferently and asked directly: "You came to me on purpose, do you have anything to ask me?" ”
Song Zhao remembered Guan Heqiu's repeated advice, and his face turned red. laughed and said, "No...... I don't have anything to ask. ”
Qingrong stared at him sideways, his eyes were cold and sharp, and Song Zhao's heart was furious. Obviously, he should be justified, but what happened to the panic that Qingrong looked at inexplicably?
Qingrong said calmly: "Guan Heqiu has it." ”
Song Zhao was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, "What's wrong?" ”
Qingrong said: "Guan Heqiu is two months pregnant. ”
Song Zhao stared at Qingrong in surprise, a little unable to return to his senses. The expression was full of surprise and confusion, without joy, and the look of doubt lasted for a long time,
Qingrong looked at his expression, and his heart instantly looked like a mirror.
Guan Heqiu told him, and he obviously already knew. and also knew that Guan Heqiu was concealed from her pregnancy, and suspected that she did it.
Are you testing her right now?
"How do you know?" Song Zhao frowned slightly, and said suspiciously.
Qingrong was also a little weak-hearted, of course she couldn't tell Song Zhao the truth about this, so she only said vaguely: "My cousin has been in for so long, and I am worried about her safety." Besides, the doctors were all invited by the third lady of my trust, do you think they can help my cousin hide from me? ”
Speaking of this, seeing Song Zhao's eyes hesitating gently, he immediately turned against the guest and asked Song Zhao with a sneer, "What, I shouldn't know?" ”
Song Zhao became more and more embarrassed, "No." ”
Qingrong pressed step by step, and said, "You already knew, that's why you want to marry your cousin in such a hurry, right?" The cousin begged and asked the doctor to not let her say that she was pregnant, who is this to prevent? ”
"Against whom? It's just that she is thinking too much during pregnancy," Song Zhao hurriedly explained for Guan Heqiu: "She has been pregnant for a long time, but Dr. Gao has been saying nothing before, so she is a little cautious." ”
Sure enough, it was Guan Heqiu who said something to him, and Qingrong sneered, "So you didn't have anything to say to ask me about Doctor Gao, it turned out that you were suspicious of me and guarded against me." When did the prince become a fool? Don't you think about why I went to such great lengths to hide that her cousin was pregnant, and why did I call the doctor to see a doctor in such a big way? ”
Song Zhao didn't expect it, but it was Guan Heqiu's words, and he also asked casually for insurance. He didn't actually want to ask, he wanted to urge Qingrong to press his handprint on the marriage contract.
The concubine ceremony of the Liang requires the marriage contract of the concubine, and in addition to the male and female parties, there must also be the permission of the main room. This marriage contract is different from the marriage certificate, and is more like a sales contract.
In the ordinary etiquette house, before the wife entered the door, most of the men's houses did not have concubines, only the girls in the room. For example, Song Zhao, who had so many concubines before getting married, was considered unjustifiable. The lady of the main house entered the door and stamped her handprint on the marriage contract, which can be regarded as having a real name.
Therefore, if Song Zhao wants to marry Guan Heqiu smoothly and enter the door, he must first ask Qingrong to press his handprint on the marriage contract, and then drink Guan Heqiu's tea.
Seeing that Qingrong was annoyed now, Song Zhao hurriedly followed her, nodded and said, "I never doubted you, I didn't come for that, I wanted to talk to you about the marriage contract." ”
Qingrong was not happy to suffer from this nest, and said directly to Song Zhao: "If I want to harm her Guan Heqiu, I will only be honest and generous, and I can't do that thing of stealing chickens and touching dogs." You let her hold her heart in her stomach, and I don't have the time to beat her mind. ”
Song Zhao's face was not very good-looking, for fear that Qingrong would settle accounts with Guan Heqiu, so he reminded her a little nervously: "You promised me a long time ago that you wouldn't embarrass her!" No matter how you bully me, give me a look, I can endure it, but my cousin can't! ”
Qingrong looked at Song Zhao's greasy expression of deep affection, rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, I don't embarrass her, I only embarrass you, I don't want to sign the marriage contract." ”
Song Zhao was immediately anxious, "Why did you go back on your word!" ”
Qingrong smiled at him, "I'm in a bad mood and have gone back on my word, what can you do to me?" ”
Song Zhao was angry and powerless, and he circled around the room, like ants on a hot pot.
Qingrong immediately stood up, ready to go out. Song Zhao hurriedly stopped her and asked, "Where are you going?" What are you doing? ”
"I can't go to the Birthday Hall?" Qingrong stared at Song Zhao with sharp eyes, "Give the old lady a good news, she is going to hold her grandson." ”
As soon as Song Zhao heard this, he remembered that he had promised Guan Heqiu that he had promised Guan Heqiu that he had promised him badly, so he immediately grabbed Qingrong's arm, dragged her back, and said, "This matter can't be spread yet, don't tell anyone." ”
Qingrong raised her eyebrows, "What?" ”
Song Zhao said: "I promised my cousin that I wouldn't let you know." Left and right, you just don't know. ”
Qingrong looked at Song Zhao, who was eight meters tall, with such a frightened expression on his face, and for the first time deeply realized the despair from the Duke of Wei and the Duke of Guo, with such a future son, does the Song family have a good son?
Song Zhao saw that he was angry, and he didn't dare to act rashly, and he didn't mention the matter of the marriage contract anymore, thinking about delaying it for another three or four days.
Who knew that early in the morning of the second day, Qingrong discussed with Mrs. Jiang, packed up and went directly to the newly built hot spring hall on the edge of Longquan Temple.
This hot spring hall was bought by the lord of Huatang at the end of last year, and later added the Zhuangzi in Qingrong's dowry and rewarded it with the Queen Mother's New Year, a full two or three hundred acres of land, built according to Qingrong's drawings for more than two months, and it has already been very good.
Qingrong's trip was to take a detailed field trip, and then carefully discuss the layout and furnishings with the lord of Huatang, and go to the business related and personnel related matters. Now it is just taking advantage of Song Zhao's excuse to take leave with Mrs. Jiang.
The county lord of Huatang looked at the feet brought by the Qingrong people, and the prepared appearance, and couldn't help but smile: "You newlywed Yan'er, Old Madam Jiang has also let you come out for so long?" ”
Qingrong said with a smile: "Guan Heqiu has it, I quietly told the old lady." Right now, I'm angry with Song Zhao in my heart, and I also want to give Guan Heqiu no face, and wait until her belly is big, see how dare she swagger in front of people again. To put it bluntly, I just didn't want Song Zhao to be those moths, and carried Guan Heqiu into the door openly. ”
It is not surprising that the county lord of Huatang knows about the agreement between Qingrong and Song Zhao. In her opinion, for Song Zhao's trend of spoiling his concubine and killing his wife, Qingrong is now cutting losses in time, knowing what he wants, and not sinking himself too deep into his chic actions, which is really smart and wise.
She sometimes feels that Qingrong, calm and intelligent, is not like a fourteen-year-old girl.
Runrong was extremely shocked when she heard this, and said, "Pregnant?" You, you're just doing that? ”
Qingrong let out an "ah" and asked Runrong, "Otherwise?" And went to the door to congratulate her on being unmarried and pregnant? ”
Runrong said angrily: "I know that Song Zhao is not a good thing, the one who has no face, and he swore before that he was polite and polite......"
Runrong was so angry that he couldn't help complaining that Qingrong was a bully, and scolded Guan Heqiu for being shameless. Qingrong thought like a person who was fine, and comforted her in turn.
After leaving the Wei State Mansion, Qingrong didn't want to tell the messy things of the Song family, delaying her plan and progress, and she didn't say much about Runrong, so she quickly passed the words.
The three of them took a few maids and women, and took the drawings to personally walk through the inside and outside of the hot spring hall step by step. Qingrong looked at every place in great detail, and walked for most of the day before he finished shopping. When they returned to the small courtyard in the southwest corner, their tired feet hurt.
Qingrong said to the county lord of Huatang again: "The rest are people, we don't accept male guests." Then the people in this place must also be girls with clear water. In such a big place, I'm afraid that there are not two or three hundred people who can't take care of it. ”
This is the most headache for the lord of Huatang, "It is said that some palace maids will be released in the palace this year, and there may be grandmothers who are honored to be raised in the palace." When the time comes, please ask Mrs. Fengguo, if there is anyone who is willing to come and can come and take care of it, let's give us more silver. ”
Qingrong nodded repeatedly.
The county lord of Huatang said worriedly: "It's just a drop in the bucket, the palace releases people every year, and at most, there are only dozens." ”
Qingrong said: "Let's see how many tooth shops can be found, in addition to the tooth line, there are also those who have been confiscated, you can also do it." ”
The county lord of Huatang hesitated and said, "I am afraid that I will not be able to rely on the one who has copied the guilty book." ”
Qingrong also understands this truth, after all, the internal relationship of the court is complicated, who knows if the person who has been confiscated will be willing to bear the charge. What should I do if I encounter a female relative in the family who has made a complaint and has a vengeance, and comes up to take revenge?
"County Lord, the Fifth Prince and the Yuan Prince are here."
"The Five Princes?"
