Zeng Yutong said: "Zhuangzi has a new concubine every year last year. One is younger and more beautiful than the other. These concubines also have fights, many children have been born, and over the years, we now have seven brothers and eleven sisters. Fortunately, no children were born to these two mothers. In fact, if you can give birth to a pregnant person, it is far more than that. ”

"Those concubines also fought fiercely with each other. Our mother didn't care about everything, and she didn't even bother to go to Zhuangzi. The aunts of the older generation, Aunt Rong followed the third brother to the third brother's house. Aunt Shui followed the third sister to the house near Wanjia, and there was a corner door to the third sister's house, just like a family. None of those young concubines were subdued, wouldn't it be more and more unruly? ”

"In the past few years, I haven't cared much about it, after all, it is my father's concubine, and they are all concubines. I'm just in charge, and when my younger siblings are born, and when I can grow up to a year old, I will carry them back to the city and raise them in our mansion. If you don't live to be a year old, or if you can't give birth, I don't care. ”

"Father's health has become worse and worse in the past few years, although there are imperial doctors who ask for this peace every three days, take care of it, and there are so many elixirs you sent back, don't eat it every day like money. Still did not stop the weakening of the body. I consulted with your eldest brother, thinking that if I continued like this, I would take my father into the mansion and serve him personally for a while. However, when my father went to Zhuangzi, it was the emperor's will, is this a matter that I have to tell the emperor about it? ”

Although Zeng Yutong didn't say it explicitly, what else did Qin Mingyue not understand? Her father Qin Ping has been obsessed with women for so many years, and he can't cut it down, and his iron body can't do it, but fortunately, Qin Mingyue has given Qin Ping a thousand-year-old ginseng, a thousand-year-old yellow essence, and a thousand-year-old nine-leaf Yuzhi as a meal for so many years, otherwise, he would have died a long time ago. However, even with a lot of elixir to protect him, Qin Ping still ages very quickly, and now, his eyes can no longer see clearly, in this case, Qin Ping still accepted two new concubines this year, which is really speechless.

Qin Mingyue had already known about her father's body, but when she said it at the moment, she was just a little sad: "Father's body is not as good as day by day, and there is no way to do it." You and your big brother are very thoughtful. But be prepared. Now you don't have to ask your father to come back, in fact, even if you ask him to come back, he won't come back. It will only be possible until he wants to come back, and the twisted melon is not sweet. However, it is estimated that at that time, it will also be the time for my father's life to expire. Let's just do our filial piety. ”

"When that day really comes, if I am in the capital, I will naturally discuss it with my eldest brother. If I am not in the capital, you can tell the eldest brother, and one of them will tell the emperor about it, and ask my father to return to the mansion to recuperate. One is to disperse all the concubines on Zhuangzi. After detaining these people for so many years, although they have fine clothes and food, they will not be happy in the end. Everything is voluntary, and those who are willing to stay will be raised on the Zhuangzi. Those who are willing to go and want to return home will let them return home and give them a rich dowry. Well, each person will give a small village of 200 acres, and 500 taels of silver. It's kind of serving our father. In addition, they are allowed to take their own things with them. ”

"Those who don't want to go, those who have children, want to follow their children in the future, we all agree. In addition, I also gave such an industry and bought a small house. The amount of silver was increased to a thousand taels. If you don't want to follow your children, or if you don't have children, just keep them. All the expenses on Zhuangzi have been paid by me all these years. I'll ask the housekeeper in my house to take care of these things. In the future, if that day comes, you tell my butler, and he will naturally come forward to handle it. ”

"In addition, over the years, our younger brothers and sisters have added a lot. It's your and your eldest brother's business to raise them, and they're all very well raised. In the future, they will either get married or start a family, and they will have to ask their sister-in-law to bother more. Our mothers don't care about that. I don't want my mother to be tired. As for their future property, I will give each person a grange of 500 acres, two shops on the south street of the capital, and one house in the capital. And each of them was given another ten thousand taels of silver. I'll take care of all of this to the housekeeper. ”

When Zeng Yutong heard this, he hurriedly said: "Where is such a truth? These younger brothers and sisters are all surnamed Qin, so naturally we are in charge, where is there an aunt like you who has been married for ten years and still pays for the property? ”

Qin Mingyue said with a smile: "What my sister-in-law said makes sense. These are not the inheritances I give them, these are the makeup I give them in the future or the congratulations I give them. However, give them in advance so that they can have some living money in their hands, and their hearts will be more stable, and there will be no moths, and they will be coaxed by people with intentions to cause trouble to their brothers and sisters-in-law. Besides, if there is an industry, they will learn to take care of it, and they will not go out separately in the future, and their eyes will be completely black. However, the responsibility of this teaching is even greater, and it also has to bother my brother and sister-in-law. ”

Qin Mingyue said so, Zeng Yutong knew that it couldn't be postponed, besides, who didn't know, Qin Mingyue was the richest person. She has a lot of money, basically, she can give five million taels and 10 million taels of silver to the court for free every year, and I don't know how much she gives to Keats Institutes in various places. Since you can give so much silver to the court, it is okay to give some to your brothers and sisters.

Zeng Yutong could only say: "Hey, being the elder brother and sister-in-law of the National Teacher, the younger brothers and sisters are so happy." My days are enviable all over the capital. As for the fatigue of discipline, there is nothing, these younger brothers and sisters have grown up in the mansion since they were children, there are no black-hearted people instigated, their hearts are right, and it is not difficult to teach. ”

Qin Mingyue smiled and asked, "How about Shengliang and the others at home?" If it is blue, I see that it is beautiful and generous, and I heard that it is still a famous talented woman in the capital. ”

As soon as he mentioned his children, Zeng Yutong's eyes were full of smiles: "A few of them have no big potential, but they are quite obedient." Katsura is the eldest son, he has known his responsibilities since he was a child, and he takes good care of his younger siblings, and he can read, ride, and shoot. Rulan is already my helper now. It's just that the idea is bigger, and I will receive it in the future at my mother-in-law's house, so I discussed with your eldest brother that in the future, I must find a kind family for her. ”

Qin Mingyue nodded and said, "This is." Anyway, the child is still young, you watch slowly, you must choose a suitable one. Hey, children are debts, I only understand this until now, with Anfu. Although Anfu is small, Xiao Rui and I already have countless plans. ”

Zeng Yutong also laughed.
