Chapter 515: Rumors
"No, no, I mean, does the prince like his younger brother?"
If the prince had married earlier, he would have had such a big son at this time.
When parents often say that having a younger brother or sister to be a companion for their older brothers and sisters is just to find an excuse for themselves.
How can a one-year-old brother be a companion with a sixteen-year-old brother?
Just like her and her three elder brothers, there have always been only three elder brothers who take care of her, and the only ones she can take care of are her nephews and nieces, but it seems that she has not taken care of anyone except Mingxuan.
Granny Hua was distracted, and she didn't forget to listen to the guy.
The guy said: "These two sons, they are not from the belly of a mother, how much can they like it, you say yes?" However, Wang Gongzi is a scholar and knowledgeable, and no one will tell what he thinks in his heart. ”
This is the excellence of this dynasty, except for the royal family, anyone's gossip can be discussed by the people, even the princesses are not immune, who let them have been married and become foreign women.
Therefore, when the guy talked about Wang Fu Yin, there was someone next to him to help, and he was a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar, with long nails, and from time to time he combed his goatee with his nails.
"Alas, this little brother, you are only half right."
The guy hurriedly asked, "Why is it half?" ”
The middle-aged scholar shook his head: "Wang Gongzi didn't say it, he scolded everyone he met, and he has been scolding for several days." ”
Granny Hua's eyes lit up, although the middle-aged scholar's dress was a little sloppy, but the clothes were made of high-quality materials, and the folding fan in her hand was also ivory.
The circle of scholars, Granny Hua doesn't understand, but this middle-aged scholar is likely to be in the same circle as Wang Gongzi.
She hurriedly asked, "Who is Wang Gongzi scolding?" ”
The middle-aged scholar smiled and said, "Who are you scolding?" Of course, he scolded his stepmother, Mrs. Yin, in addition to scolding his stepmother, he also scolded his infant brother, guess what he scolded his younger brother? ”
Granny Hua had already guessed it in her heart, but she asked in her mouth, "What are you scolding?" ”
"Haha, Wang Gongzi scolded his half-brother for being a little animal." The middle-aged scholar said with a smile.
The guy is full of interest, this information is too big, he has to sort it out and report it.
Granny Hua sighed: "What a child, not sensible, Wang Gongzi scolded his younger brother for being a little animal, isn't this just scolded along with his own Lao Tzu?" ”
The middle-aged scholar shook the fan whirringly, and the mother-in-law shrank back from the cold, big brother, it's not out of the New Year yet, you just hold the fan and pretend to be forced, why are you still fanning?
"Auntie, you don't know, the father-son relationship between this prince and Wang Fu Yin has always been bad, and Wang Fu Yin is not good when he doesn't continue the string, and after the chord, it's just worse. Wang Gongzi lived in a foreign house when he was a child, and when he grew up, he lived in the academy, and occasionally went home, and every time he came back angrily, their father-son relationship was not harmonious, outsiders may not know, but the people around Wang Gongzi all knew. ”
Granny Hua was in a good mood, and after carefully inquiring about the situation of the lady of the continuation, she walked out of the teahouse satisfied.
The next day, Old Man Xu, who delivered mutton to the Wang family every day, fell ill, and it was Old Man Xu's nephew Xu Wu who came today.
Xu is in his early fifties and twenties, the young man is very energetic, and his mouth is very sweet, and the first time he came to Wang's house, he was familiar with all the people in the kitchen.
Wang Fu Yin has always loved to eat mutton, and he has to have mutton every meal.
Xu Wu didn't leave in a hurry after delivering the mutton, but helped in the kitchen.
This is a young man with a lot of vision, and he didn't need to be reminded, so he cracked all the firewood piled up in the corner of the wall, and put the cracked firewood neatly.
Aunt Sun, who was in charge of the big kitchen, saw it and smiled, she has a niece at home, who is sixteen this year and has not yet been engaged.
Old man Xu doesn't look like he is just a meat seller, but his family is well-off, there are shops in the city, and there are fields in the countryside, Xu Wu is his nephew, and the situation at home will not be much worse if he wants to.
Seeing that Xu Wu was leaving, Aunt Sun hurriedly stopped him and asked about his family, and Aunt Sun was even more satisfied with this question.
Xu Wu also has a shop in his house, and there are two more families, and there are also fields in the countryside, and there are more than those in Old Man Xu's house, with more than 60 acres.
What's more, Xu Wu is not engaged, and his family is also asking people to be a matchmaker for him everywhere, his family conditions are good, so his vision is also high, Xu Wu said, he just wants to find a beautiful daughter-in-law.
Alas, speaking of the word beautiful, Aunt Sun felt a little troublesome, her niece, although she was not ugly, but she was not beautiful, at most she could be said to have good facial features.
"Silly boy, beautiful can be eaten, marry a wife and marry a virtuous, a woman must be ingenious, filial piety to her in-laws, will live the best, besides, this beautiful, it also depends on whether there is a blessing, the Empress Dowager Sun is not beautiful, but people are blessed, you look at our new lady, beautiful enough, but how about it? No blessing is no blessing. ”
The corners of Xu Wu's mouth twitched, Empress Dowager Sun has been dead for so long, and the story that her old man's family is not beautiful is still circulating.
He heard his wife say that Empress Dowager Sun is actually good-looking, but she is not a peerless beauty, she is just an ordinary beauty, not a particularly beautiful woman.
However, Aunt Sun is just a subordinate, and when she talks about the new lady, she has no respect in her tone, it seems that this new lady has a hard time in the house.
Xu Wu hurriedly retorted to Aunt Sun: "Look at what you said, the new lady in your mansion, within two years of marriage, gave birth to a fairy-like little son to Wang Fu Yin, isn't this enough to be blessed?" Ordinary people have half of her blessings, so thank God. ”
Aunt Sun snorted: "I said that she is not blessed, she is not blessed, I will meet, you see that although she is beautiful, her cheeks are fleshless, her earlobes are small, and she has a pair of peach blossom eyes, this is not a blessed appearance, besides, if she is really blessed, the little son can come out ....... Forget it, in short, marrying a daughter-in-law can't just look at whether she looks beautiful or not, and the most important thing is to have a prosperous husband and a prosperous family! ”
Xu Wu looked confused: "In this way, the previous Mrs. Zhou is also a blunder, right?" ”
"Nonsense, our aunt is not an unblessed person, she is just a thin life, you see, how good the eldest son born by Mrs. Gu is, good looks, good knowledge, everything is good, Mrs. Gu is not strong, but the eldest son has never been sick since he was a child, which is like the one born by the new lady, alas, don't say it!"
Xu Wu immediately understood, no wonder this aunt had no respect for the new lady, it turned out that this was the companion of the previous Mrs. Zhou.
