Chapter 160: Liu Sihuai
"In fact, it doesn't matter if it's a 'servant' concubine or oneself, can you still call your second brother and sister 'mother'? The second brother and sister now have no children under their knees, if these four concubines really have something, won't she raise them? The so-called 'giving birth to grace is not as big as raising grace', and raising it for a long time is no different from your own children. In the afternoon, the winter sun shined warmly through the window lattice on the soft couch, Wei Changying and Liu sat a few times apart, with a chessboard on the table, and the two of them each held one side, slowly and logically.
Liu's Zhibai, while falling into the house, talked to Wei Changying, who is now required to stay out of the hospital, about the length of the family, "The second brother and sister returned to the courtyard that day, and cried a lot when they closed the 'door'. Two days later, my mother heard about it by chance and was very upset...... In fact, everyone has taken it back, what's the point of crying and making trouble again? On the contrary, the elders were not happy, and when it was spread, it was also said that the 'daughter' of the Duanmu family was really ...... Gee! ”
Wei Chang Ying held the sunspot, lowered his head and carefully looked at the situation on the plate, and said with a smile: "What the eldest sister-in-law said is true." In fact, she was a little dismissive of Liu's words in her heart: Liu's was because she didn't have a 'daughter' under her knees, so she said it easily, if it was Liu who was now asked to take four concubines to her husband, she might not have said it so simply...... The time Liu Ruoye passed over the house before, didn't he say a sentence that made Liu's face change on the spot? It can be seen that something has happened in Shen Zangli's backyard, and the Liu family is deeply secretive.
However, the Liu family now came to visit and accompany her in his spare time, and this kindness Wei Changying would not refuse, so although he didn't think so in his heart, his mouth followed her everywhere.
She pondered for a long time before putting the child down, and it was Liu's turn to think, anyway, the chess skills of the two of them were not very good, and now the game is also idle, looking for something to do, so there is no hurry. While thinking about what to do next, Liu said with a smile: "Do you know that after the second brother and sister cried, they have been quietly scolding you in private for the past few days!" ”
Wei Changying was surprised: "What does this matter to me?" Before the words fell, he came to his senses again, and said with a smile, "Is it because my mother started talking about my pregnancy?" ”
"More because you're pregnant with a little nephew." Liu said with a smile, "This time, her mother reminded her to add someone to the second brother, isn't it because the second brother has no children so far?" ”
Wei Changying smiled dumbly and said, "Is it because there are no children in the second room, and we are not allowed to add children to the third room?" The second sister-in-law is too domineering. ”
Liu said: "Isn't it? So yesterday, when I asked my mother to say goodbye, my mother also said that when the prince entered the palace at the prince's wedding, I heard someone talk that the 'daughter' of the Duanmu family was not virtuous, and my mother said in front of us, 'That is Duanmu no 'color', not necessarily every 'girl' of the Duanmu family is the same as Duanmu no 'color'." For example, Yan is very good, isn't it'. ”
This sounds like a relief to Duanmu Yanyu, but in fact it is a beating, suggesting that Duanmu Yanyu should not 'make' himself to the point where Duanmu has no 'color'.
Wei Changying snorted - anyway, Duanmu Yanyu didn't dare to run to Jintong Courtyard to scold herself, she scolded in the no-'flower' court, and was known by her mother-in-law, Mrs. Su...... Hengzhi can't suffer any loss by himself.
Sure enough, after thinking about it for a long time, Liu Shi fell into place, and said with a smile: "Mother later said that there were only four people in her room, and now that I think about it, I am very busy, third brother and sister, you will ask her not to come here often, so as not to delay her affairs and disturb you." ”
"My mother really sympathized with me." Wei Changying pursed her lips and smiled, "But I think my sister-in-law should also be sympathetic to me?" ”
Liu smiled and waved his hand, and said, "I'll be honest with you, just for the little nephew you are pregnant with now, my mother is afraid that she will not be compassionate enough for you!" Where do you need me to say anything? I just beat the side drum! ”
Without waiting for Wei Changying to thank him, Liu said again, "By the way, your eldest aunt's eldest 'daughter', I remember that this cousin Song's maiden name is Xiyue, is she going to ask someone recently?" ”
Wei Changying was stunned for a moment and said, "Xiyue? Xu Ren? What did the sister-in-law hear? She was startled at first, thinking that Concubine Deng Guifei had directly relied on her status as a palace concubine to force Song Xiyue to Deng Zongqi, but then she thought that if that was the case, the eldest aunt should have been in a hurry to ask for help.
Liu said unexpectedly: "Yo! I've heard it all, but your cousin doesn't know it? ”
"Sister-in-law said this." Wei Changying scolded her, "I'm locked up in this courtyard every day, and no one has come to talk about the affairs of my eldest aunt, how do I know?" He urged her to speak quickly.
Liu said with a smile: "Coincidentally, two days ago, my mother's family sent some things over, and a mother-in-law said that your cousin may be allowed to my sixteen brothers." My brother's parents are both in Donghu, but my uncle's grandfather and Taiwei have already proposed marriage on his behalf. ”
Wei Changying was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The sixteenth brother of the eldest sister-in-law is ...... Liu Xixun? ”
"Isn't it?" Liu smiled lightly, lowered his eyes and watched the chess game, as if he was casually mentioning it, and said, "My sixteen clan brothers have long reached the age of saying that they are married, but my parents are far away in Donghu, and my maternal uncle and grandfather have asked him about this lifelong event several times, but every time he said that he wanted to ask his parents. Two days ago...... It should have been the first two days, right? My uncle and grandfather offered ten pots of narcissus to the saint, and the saint was very happy and wanted to reward my grandfather. However, the uncle and grandfather didn't want anything, and only wanted to ask for a good marriage for the sixteenth brother. ”
"And then?" Wei Changying bit his 'lip' and said.
Although Liu observed for a long time, he couldn't get down for a long time, and said: "The saint asked the queen mother if there was a beautiful lady?" The queen recommended this Miss Song family, saying that she was beautiful and gentle, and when the prince got married, even the concubine couldn't help but call her to her side to take a closer look, and she admired it. ”
Wei Changying groaned and said, "Does the eldest sister-in-law know what the concubine said?" ”
"When my uncle and grandfather entered the daffodil, the queen mother was in front of the saint, and the concubine happened to be stumped by the matter and did not get out." Liu said slowly, "So my uncle immediately said that the young lady that the queen mother and the concubine lady fancy together must not be wrong." Then before the concubine arrived, the uncle and grandfather left the palace. Later, after the concubine heard about it, she seemed to be a little disapproving, but the queen said that a lady like Miss Song who is both talented and good-looking, and has good deeds and deeds, is not without anyone else in the imperial capital, and the concubine has other plans, and the queen will give her another 'color' next time. Since the saint has already promised his uncle and grandfather, why should he make Jinkou's 'jade' words fail for the sake of a 'daughter'? ”
"The eldest sister-in-law's brother is a very good person." Wei Changying was stunned for a moment before he said.
Liu glanced at her and said, "It's not that I boast about my family, although my brother and brother and my own official position are not as good as Song Thorn History, but he is really good, otherwise, he would not have won the blue eyes of my other uncle and grandfather, Marquis Weiyuan, and he is deliberately cultivated." ”
The problem is that Liu Xixun is the current valve owner of the Donghu Liu family, and the next valve owner of the Burning Quinoa Hall that Liu Sijing, the Marquis of Weiyuan, has painstakingly cultivated! He has not been married for a long time, and like Wei Changfeng, it is not that he can't marry a wife, nor that his elders have forgotten his marriage, but because he has high hopes and is determined to pick a good one for him!
Of course, there may be the obstruction of Taiwei Liu Sihuai in the middle?
All in all, according to Liu Sijing's expectations for Liu Xixun, the wife he chose for him must be the 'daughter' of the valve reading grandson, and the 'daughter' or granddaughter of the other valve owners' relatives! It must be a lady who should be valued in her mother's house!
And what about Song Xiyue? Although his parents are pampered, and his parents are both from the valve, his father Song Tong is only a side branch of the Song clan in Jiangnan, and his mother Wei Shengxian is the 'daughter' of the Wei lord, but she is a concubine! And the mother-in-law, Mrs. Song, is a well-known strong and important concubine!
Song Tong is now in charge of Ruanzhou's assassination history - if you don't consider the fact that Liu Xixun is the heir carefully cultivated by Liu Sijing, the lord of the Liu family, this 'door' marriage, Song Xiyue is still a bit of a marriage. Because Liu Xixun's father and half-brother, as well as his own grade, are inferior to Song Tonglai.
It is conceivable that Liu Sijing has far-reaching hopes for this nephew, and his cultivation is even more careful than his own son! How much effort has been poured into it, and now Liu Xixun is going to marry Song Xiyue...... Song Xiyue was born, and her father's official position was not up to Liu Sijing's expectations, and the most important thing was that she had no biological brother.
This means that Liu Xixun married her, and there is only one Song Tong who can get the most loyal support from his wife in the future - because he has no children, even the people of the side tribe can 'force' Song Tong to his 'door', it is not difficult to imagine how few places can help Liu Xixun, and how weak the power of help is?
And how angry will Liu Sijing be when he is disappointed?
…… Sending the Liu family away, Wei Changying lowered his face coldly and said to the Huang family: "I have always heard that the queen and the concubine are not in harmony, but unexpectedly, even if the concubine wants to marry Deng Gongzi, the queen will 'insert' a kick!" ”
Huang knew that she was not happy, so he comforted her softly: "The sixteenth son of the Liu family is both talented and good-looking, and he is also generous, so it is still good to say." "Huang's 'door' mind is on Wei Changying, although Song Xiyue is Wei Changying's cousin, the Huang family doesn't take this cousin's lifelong affairs to heart.
After all, Old Madam Song is here, and she must be concerned about Wei Changying's pregnancy and not being angry about such a thing, not the marriage of her grandgranddaughter Song Xiyue.
Wei Changying said with a calm face: "He is good himself, what is the use of that?" Is he the one who can make his own decisions? The Taiwei and the queen colluded to give Xiyue's cousin to Liu Xixun, which was nothing more than a way to cut off Liu Xixun from finding a strong wife to assist; The other doesn't want the concubine to get her wish! They will succeed in this, but Wei Yuanhou has been fighting with Taiwei for so many years, is he willing to admit defeat like this? ”
She bit her lip and said with a sneer, "At the beginning, Uncle Tang did not hesitate to collude with the Liu family for the position of the lord of the valve, and openly assassinated me and Changfeng outside Fengzhou City!" Speaking of which, Changfeng and I are both cousins and nephews of my cousin, and we all grew up with him! Uncle Cousin can do this, not to mention that Cousin Xiyue has nothing to do with the Liu family? ”
Huang said: "Then let's hurry up and remind the aunt and wife?" ”
"That's right!" Wei Changying said solemnly, "Auntie, you will go on a trip yourself now...... Let's just say, I suddenly want to eat a snack that only the chef at my aunt's place makes! ”
When the Huang family left, Wei Chang frowned again and whispered to himself, "Sister-in-law, she ...... Isn't it Taiwei Liu Sihuai's branch? How could this be a deliberate reminder of this? It seems to be sending me a favor, but in fact, it is helping Liu Xi find a hand, which is equivalent to helping Liu Sijing, the Marquis of Weiyuan? ”
"Even if the sister-in-law's father and brother secretly voted for Weiyuanhou, how could the sister-in-law let outsiders know about such a big thing? Not to mention telling me in person! Wei Changying was suspicious, "Sister-in-law is not a risky person, and I didn't promise to keep this news secret for her...... What did she do this for? If it is said that the covenant between me and Liu Ruo's 'jade' is more stable, this is impossible? No matter how much the sister-in-law cares about Liu Ruo's 'jade', she is just a sister, can she still cross her parents and sisters-in-law? ”
She pondered for a long time, and suddenly thought of something: "Yes, the sister-in-law has been protecting Liu Ruo's 'jade' all these years, and although the scene is perfunctory to Zhang Shaoguang's mother and son, in fact, the sister-in-law is very disgusted with them." Liu Ruowo doesn't know, but Zhang Shaoguang and Liu Ruoye are such 'shrewd' people, will they not understand the real thoughts of the sister-in-law? This mother and daughter are not people with a big heart, Zhang Shaoguang has treated Liu Ruo 'jade' for more than ten years, and Liu Ruoye only 'forced' Zhong Li to death because of the ignorance of the common people...... If Liu Ruowo really replaces Liu Xixun as the next lord of the Liu family, the sister-in-law has already left the cabinet anyway, but it doesn't matter. However, how can the parents not be excluded? It's better to take a gamble and secretly vote for Weiyuanhou! ”
Thinking about such a big thing again, it's not that a 'daughter' of the Liu family who has already left the cabinet can make decisions for her mother's family - so maybe Liu's father and brother also chose Liu Sijing for various reasons?
In the end, this is the matter of the Liu family, Wei Changying pondered for a while, and felt that the Liu family was still pointing to himself to help Liu Ruo's 'jade', and it was reasonable that he would not harm himself, so it was better to let Wei Shengxian reject Liu Sihuai's proposal on behalf of Liu Xixun as soon as possible.
