Chapter 292: Concubinage
The little servant came to say that Mrs. Seven was coming, Chen Xuanqing lowered her eyes slightly, and said softly, "Please let her in." ”
He put the wolf's brush on the pen mountain, and took the hot handkerchief that the girl had twisted to wipe his hands.
When Yu Wanxue came in, she saw her husband standing behind the window sash with his back to her, his posture was like a pine, the snow was falling outside the window sash, and there were a few lanterns hanging in the corridor, and the hazy red light was cast into the house, and the snow night was soft.
She walked over gently, reached out and wrapped her hand around Chen Xuanqing's waist, and buried her head on his broad back.
Chen Xuanqing was shocked, but he didn't push her away.
After a long while, he asked lightly, "What are you doing here with such a big snow outside?" ”
Yu Wanxue said: "The concubine will bring you soup." The hoof flower soup of the concubine's body is very well done, and everyone else makes it salty, but the hoof flower soup of the concubine's body is sweet. I wanted to wait for you to come back and try it. But seeing that the snow was falling so heavily, I thought that you might not come back, so the concubine came by herself. ”
Chen Xuanqing saw that her hand holding her waist was blue from the cold.
He moved her hand away and turned around, and saw that Yu Wanxue's cloak was covered with snow.
"Didn't you come with an umbrella?"
Yu Wanxue said with a smile: "If you hold an umbrella, it's too windy, and it's useless to hold an umbrella." ”
She is delicate, different from Gu Jinchao's delicate, like a quiet orchid in the valley, noble and elegant. Her lips were a little pale because of the cold...... Chen Xuanqing couldn't help but hold her hand and took her to the fire to warm her hands.
Yu Wanxue felt the warmth of his hand, and her heart calmed down.
"Seventh Young Master, you don't have to worry about the concubine, let's drink the soup first. It's going to be cold after a while......" Yu Wanxue whispered.
"Don't speak." Chen Xuanqing said suddenly.
Yu Wanxue smiled and stopped talking, carefully observing his hands. Slender and fair-skinned, but the fingertips are very delicate, as sharp as a girl. It was better than her hand, but he completely held her hand.
After a while, Chen Xuanqing's scholar came in with the curtain and said to Chen Xuanqing: "Seventh Young Master, the snow outside is a foot thick, and it can be covered with boots." The lake is also frozen, and the mother-in-law who clears the snow tomorrow morning may have to work hard......"
"You stay and rest." Chen Xuanqing sighed.
He was originally irritable and wanted to avoid Yu Wanxue for a while.
But she is innocent, she has done nothing wrong, and she serves herself wholeheartedly...... He is also a man, so he will naturally pity her. But this kind of pity and the awkward conflict in his heart can't be explained.
He deserves no one's fault. Every single one of them was right, only he was in the wrong place.
The girl brought hot water to wash Yu Wanxue's face, and burned the earth dragon again. Yu Wanxue finally felt that she was gradually getting warmer.
"Seventh Young Master, the concubine has something to ask you." She said softly, "Are you angry with your concubine?" I don't pay much attention to the concubine these days. If there's anything wrong, you have to tell me. We are husband and wife, and there should be no gap......"
Chen Xuanqing shook his head and said, "Don't think about it, go to sleep first." As he spoke, he got up and went out.
Yu Wanxue panicked and hurriedly grabbed him: "Aren't you sleeping here?" ”
"There's an earth dragon here, and it's warmer for you to sleep. I'll just go to the side room to sleep......" Chen Xuanqing let her pull her sleeve and said lightly.
Yu Wanxue was heartbroken after hearing this. Don't...... He doesn't want to share a bed with him now?
He disliked himself, so he didn't go back to Shu Accord to rest.
No matter how sensible Yu Wanxue is, after all, she is still young. couldn't help but reddened his eyes, he was so wronged, why didn't he appreciate it? A woman is three from four virtues, her husband doesn't ask her for anything, where does she go?
She said with some anger: "Anyway, it's past the first month...... If you don't like a concubine, a concubine will give you a concubine. Which girl do you like next to the concubine? Even if you carry your aunt away! ”
She had never said such a thing to Chen Xuanqing. He has always been cold, and he is too deferential. It's hard to get such a small character out of her mouth. She hoped that Chen Xuanqing could comfort her a few words, saying how could she not like her.
Chen Xuanqing frowned, and suddenly remembered what Chen Xuanrang said.
Instead, he said calmly: "If you want to take a concubine, you can choose one of the girls, just choose it and tell me." ”
Yu Wanxue looked up at him, as if she was shocked by his words. How could he say yes!
Yu Wanxue was a little confused...... Doesn't he like to take concubines, and he didn't open his face in the two rooms!
Chen Xuanqing left the study after finishing speaking.
Yu Wanxue couldn't pull him if she wanted to, did she want to tell him that the sentence just now was just a joke of herself, and she didn't want to give him a concubine at all!
Yu Wanxue sat up in a panic and called him: "Seventh Young Master......"
The person shouted that she didn't agree, and she hurriedly got out of bed and pulled her satin shoes. When I walked out of the study, I felt very anxious and partial...... Which one is the side room? The two dowry girls who were only guarding her outside looked at her with some confusion.
Congshuang and Congyue have a beautiful face and a beautiful figure, which her mother specially chose for her. was originally planning for Chen Xuanqing's concubine, if he really wanted to take a concubine, it would naturally be his own girl. The two of them themselves also knew that it was always a little unnatural when serving Chen Xuanqing.
Yu Wanxue regretted it even more in her heart, how could she say such a thing! This is good, could it be that she really took a concubine for Chen Xuanqing?
She wants to punch herself in the mouth!
Ordered Congshuang to call her early the next day, she went back to the study to sleep first, there was a burning dragon in it, and she slept very warmly.
When she woke up the next day but didn't see Chen Xuanqing, Yu Wanxue was a little anxious, thought about it, and went back to the inner courtyard first.
On the sixth day of the first day of the new year, Mrs. Chen made an appointment with Mrs. Chang and Mrs. Wu to play horses.
Gu Jinchao is better at playing the leaf card, but Ma Hang is not very good. After fighting for a while, Mrs. Chang laughed at her: "...... You beat Zun Jiu Suo first, how will you play in the future? ”
Gu Jinchao lost seven taels of silver, but a few elders won the smile, wishing she was a little more villager.
Although Gu Jinchao was a little wealthy, he didn't dare to lose like this. Lian smiled bitterly and retired from the banker, and the Qin family went to be the banker.
Gu Jinchao was drinking tea next to him while chatting with Second Mrs. Wu.
Mrs. Wu Er had just gotten a Persian cat with snow-white fur, and she talked about the interesting story of raising a cat: "...... It's just lazy, and I don't like to be close to people. You ignore it, and it lazily rubs into your arms again, trying to doze off. If you say two words about it, it doesn't react, but looks arrogant. ”
Ge Shi said with a smile: "Raising a Pekingese dog is the opposite, it is very sticky!" And you are covered in dog hair. I used to raise one, and then I was asked to go by the sixth master...... He didn't take care of it well, and in the end the dog got sick and died. ”
The husband and son have all returned, and the Ge people are much more energetic than before.
Second Mrs. Wu asked about Sixth Master Chen: "I haven't seen Sixth Master for a long time, I heard that you are practicing in Baoxiang Temple?" ”
Ge shook his head: "He doesn't believe in Buddhism." Not long after I came back, I went to Xiangye Mountain with a few masters to visit the suburbs......"
A few children sat on the big kang near the window to play Baisuo, and Brother Zheng wanted to snatch the colored rope in Chen Zhao's hand, and the house was very lively.
Yu Wanxue came over, called Gu Jinchao's "mother", and said, "Please go back if you have something." ”
Gu Jinchao looked at her and stopped talking, and was a little puzzled.
In Mrs. Chen's place, it was just a small talk, and Gu Jinchao followed Yu Wanxue back to Muxitang. When I arrived in the west, Yuzhu served wolfberry and red date tea. She is now a big girl, and she is very careful in doing things, putting down the tea and staying by Gu Jinchao's side. Stand with your hands down.
Yu Wanxue whispered: "Mother, it's not easy for me to talk about this......"
Yuzhu's eyes widened, and when he saw Gu Jinchao looking at him, he sighed and withdrew with the two little girls.
It seems that it still needs to be adjusted, Gu Jinchao thought to himself. smiled and said to Yu Wanxue: "If you have anything to say, you just say it directly!" ”
Yu Wanxue couldn't help but clench her handkerchief, her eyes were slightly red: "My daughter-in-law is actually not sure whether to tell you or not." The seventh young master ...... daughter-in-law It's a bit cold. It was a long time ago, and my daughter-in-law thought that she had done something bad, and wanted to ask him to talk about it. I'm not an uncivilized person either! Isn't it always good to say everything and solve it...... Outcome...... The daughter-in-law mistakenly said a word to help him take a concubine, and the seventh young master agreed. ”
Gu Jinchao was a little stunned when he heard her say this.
Chen Xuanqing...... Shouldn't you like Yu Wanxue in your previous life? How can you be willing to be cold to her!
She still remembers witnessing the intimacy of the two on that snowy night, and also remembers Chen Xuanqing's concern for Yu Wanxue. When Yu Wanxue didn't have children, he served her undressed, and when he was ruthless, he almost strangled himself to death! It was Yu Wanxue who called him, and his hand was released.
The poor child in her previous life, although she didn't kill it on purpose, she didn't have it because of her.
Even if Chen Xuanqing was cold to her, Yu Wanxue would not say anything to help him take a concubine.
Gu Jinchao frowned: "What the hell is going on, you say it one by one." ”
Yu Wanxue said it from beginning to end, and she was also a little angry with herself. “…… That's also angry talk, and the daughter-in-law doesn't think so. ”
Gu Jinchao thought about it. Even if Yu Wanxue really said such a thing, Chen Xuanqing agreed, it was also their private matter. Yu Wanxue admits her mistake if she doesn't forget it, what are you doing when you come to her? Her relationship with Chen Xuanqing is also a bit difficult to talk to.
"And what are you going to do?"
Yu Wanxue said, "I shouldn't have come to disturb my mother...... If you take a concubine, I'll go back and explain it to him. My daughter-in-law is just thinking that there is something in his heart that he doesn't want to tell me, maybe he is willing to tell you, it's good if you can help me ask. Without waiting for Gu Jinchao to say anything, she immediately added, "If the Seventh Young Master doesn't say anything, then forget it!" ”
Gu Jinchao smiled bitterly in his heart, Chen Xuanqing was probably even more reluctant to talk to her!
"I can't talk to him, why don't you ask your grandmother again......"
Yu Wanxue smiled bitterly and shook her head: "I haven't said anything to my grandmother, besides, it's not good for me to tell her about such a thing......" Old Madam Chen has always felt that they are a husband and wife, and she told Chen Xuanqing a lot. When she said this to Mrs. Chen, it was like suing Chen Xuanqing......
Seeing Yu Wanxue looking at herself, Gu Jinchao sighed. "Then I'll help you ask tomorrow." She already felt in her heart, 1152
