Chapter 3 Conquest

The eldest lady was at the door of the inner courtyard of the Lu Mansion, and when she heard the clouds and rain inside, she was angry, and suddenly pushed open the door of the Xiyue Pavilion, startling the naked couple inside.

Cheng Xu saw that the eldest lady was coming, first angry and then panicked, his two-room lady had already provoked Zhang Xiang's displeasure, but now he had added such an unseemly thing, and he was secretly cowardly in his heart.

"Who is Ruan Meiyu?" The eldest lady didn't ask directly, she ordered the servants to cover the door, and gave Cheng Xu and Ruan Meiyu time to get dressed.

"Slave maid...... It's ......" Ruan Meiyu just walked out of the door, and was about to speak, when she was slapped to the ground by the eldest lady.

"What a coquettish slut! Lu Hou was afraid that he was looking forward to the peace in my family, so he actually recommended you to the master! I don't care about my identity, whether I deserve to be a big man in the court! The eldest lady roared and glared at Cheng Xu.

Cheng Xu lost all of his interest all of a sudden, only feeling bored, hating himself for why he was blocking himself. The lady in the family is like this, and she must never think about taking a concubine again. "Madam, you dissipate your anger, I will send someone to send this Ruan girl away immediately." Cheng Xu said in a consultative tone.

"No need, just kill with a cane! I have commanded my subordinates. The eldest lady completely ignored Cheng Xu's feelings and just wanted to be angry. She never suffered any grievances when she was in her mother's home, and she acted fearlessly.

"Ma'am, take a step to speak." Next to her, the eldest lady's marrying mother, Sui's mother, whispered this to the eldest lady.

The eldest lady replied: "En??? "I was pulled over by Sui's mother and walked out of Xiyue Pavilion." Why? Sui's mother? The eldest lady asked very puzzled.

"Madam, this Ruan girl is now the master's heart, if you kill her with a rod, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get the master's favor, but it will be even more alienated. But let her go back, it will be cheaper for her, and the master will inevitably be contaminated again. It's better to take it back to the house, and save the notoriety of treating the concubine poorly. "Sui's mother is very thoughtful, but the eldest lady doesn't want to follow.

"Take it home? Isn't this getting myself in trouble? Add another stunning beauty like Siyi, how can I live in the future? "The eldest lady didn't understand Sui's mother's intentions very much.

"Don't worry, the slave maid has her own way, which can not only make the master completely indifferent to her, but also easily get rid of her. In this way, you can be protected and the whole house can be protected. Sui's mother whispered.

The eldest lady nodded with some confusion, and followed Sui's mother back to the inner courtyard, Xiyue Pavilion. She looked at Ruan Meiyu, who was crying pear blossoms with rain, with a disgusted and disgusted face. Mother Sui next to her pulled her and didn't let her get angry.

"Okay, since the matter has come to this, I don't want to be harsh, why don't you follow this Ruan girl back to Chengfu. Ming'er is lively, and adds a new room to the master. The eldest lady gritted her teeth and said such a thing, which frightened Cheng Xu to think that she had heard it wrong.

"Madam, you ......" Cheng Xu said hesitantly, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in the eldest lady's gourd.

"Master, this is a happy event, maybe this Ruan girl can add a son and a half daughter to the Cheng Mansion and prosper the Cheng family." Sui's mother added with a smile on the side, her smile was vicious, and she looked at Ruan Meiyu.

"It is really a blessing for a husband that Mrs. can be so virtuous." Cheng Xu thought that his majesty had played a role, so he didn't think too much about it at all, so he agreed. He took Madam Ruan's delicate hand and took off the jade pendant he was wearing and gave it to Madame Ruan.

Next to her, the eldest lady gritted her teeth, but since she agreed, she couldn't repent. She thought that Sui's mother, an old man who had experienced the wind and frost of the Prime Minister's house, would definitely be able to do it, so she didn't care anymore.

The family returned to Chengfu from the Lu Mansion by car, although Cheng Xu was a little worried, but he still didn't think too much, he took out the land deed of the Lu Mansion, handed it to the eldest lady, and said: "Madame knows the general situation now, and she should be in charge of these, this is given to me by Lu Hou, even if Madam wants to raze Lu Zhai to the ground, I have no complaints." There is also the title deed of the nearby Zhuangzi, which should be handed over to the lady for safekeeping. ”

The eldest lady grew up in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she has never seen any good things and objects, and what house deeds and title deeds are missing, and there is nothing missing. Although she didn't feel it, she felt a little more comfortable when she saw Cheng Xu sincerely hand it over to her.

When she arrived at Cheng's house, the old lady was actually standing at the door waiting, and Cheng Xu hurriedly got out of the car and greeted the old lady.

"Mother, why are you at the door?" Cheng Xu asked with concern.

"Are you too embarrassed to ask me? My old face has been lost by your son, just now there were rumors on the street about the eldest lady of the Cheng family catching rape in bed in the Lu Mansion. Son, women are hard to prevent, don't lose your proportions. The old lady said earnestly.

"Mother is extremely educated." Cheng Xu held on to the gate of the old lady's mansion and nodded again and again.

"Did Ruolan hurt that woman? In case she is injured, it will be another mess, and she may not know which of her relatives will sue the Cheng family to the government. The old lady asked with concern, her voice quiet, afraid of being heard by the eldest lady.

At this moment, I saw that the eldest lady got out of the car with a very beautiful woman, and the old lady of the Cheng family was blinded, she pointed to the woman and asked, "...... is this?" ”

Cheng Xu nodded and said, "Mother, don't panic, this is that woman, the eldest lady is virtuous and not jealous, and has agreed to take a concubine tomorrow." ”

The old lady felt as if she had misheard, and could not believe her eyes. At this time, the second lady Zhong Chuchu also appeared, she stepped forward to grab Mrs. Ruan's arm and brought her over to meet the old lady.

"Mother, this is that beauty, it's really a natural beauty embryo." The second lady said with a smile.

"Mother, I'm ......," the eldest lady also came over and said apologetically.

"Don't worry, my family's business, there is a cool breeze at the door, be careful not to catch the cold, let's go into the main hall and talk." The old lady understood what was going on and said.

Over there, Lan Shufang, Xiaochun reported everything she saw at the gate of Cheng's Mansion, and Mrs. Siyi asked Xing'er what to do with some anxiety.

"Madam, you are weak, you don't need to visit this new lady today, and it is not too late to take a concubine tomorrow. Moreover, in the future, it is necessary to pay great attention to the fact that this Ruolan will not hurt her life now, and she will definitely do great things in the future. I'm afraid I'm going to borrow a knife to kill someone, Madame must be careful, don't get involved or be calculated. Xing'er saw it very clearly and said. In fact, she was also wondering what was going on, and taking one step at a time.

Over there, a large family sat down in the main hall together, and the old lady asked Mrs. Ruan with concern: "What is your name?" Are your parents still there? ”

Mrs. Ruan replied in a low voice: "The slave maid is Ruan Meiyu, the mother is Ruan Xiaoxiao, and the father is unknown, all of whom have passed away." ”

Hearing Ruan Xiaoxiao's name, the old lady instantly understood why Cheng Xu couldn't help but be tempted, the beauty of her first love. But she frowned, because the identity of this woman's daughter in the Qinglou will undoubtedly become everyone's tongue for the Cheng family.

"Do you know that my Cheng family is a famous family in Beijing?" The old lady asked, she actually hoped that this woman could leave with interest and avoid affecting the reputation of the Cheng family.

"Yes, old lady, please accept me, and never give up." Ruan Meiyu shed tears, the tears of the beauties were very cute, and the old lady couldn't help but want to refuse her.

"Then you must be strict in the future and know the general situation." The old lady said solemnly, taking off the jade bracelet in her hand and giving it to Ruan Meiyu.

"Every time my son accepts a wife, I will give some objects, this bracelet is carved by Hetian jade, so I will reward you." The old lady gave the jade bracelet to Ruan Meiyu, and then instructed her subordinates to clean out Qi Xifang's house and give it to Mrs. Ruan to live in. He also ordered to buy a few maids and mothers-in-law for Mrs. Ruan's use.

"Child, in this family, and the word is the most expensive and the most rare, I hope you can remember my words." The old lady said in a deep voice.

Madame Nguyen didn't quite understand the profound meaning, and just nodded symbolically. At this time, Cheng Xu said with a smile: "Mother has always understood the righteousness, listen to my mother tonight, I will stay in the Mo Shuang room, and I must be wet with rain and dew." ”

When the eldest lady heard this, she felt a burst of joy, and Sui's mother was also happy for her, and began to order her subordinates to prepare wine and food and send them to Mo Shuangfang.

Mrs. Ruan was on the way to Qi Xifang, only to see a faint light there, she followed the direction of the light, and found a beauty eating in the house, these things seemed to have no taste, the beauty vomited when eating, a burst of disgust.

"You are?" Madame Ruan stepped forward and asked.

"This is Mrs. Siyi." Xing'er, the girl next to her, didn't know Mrs. Ruan either, so she replied while serving vegetables to Mrs. Siyi. During the confinement period, in order to avoid affecting the baby's feeding, Mrs. Siyi had to eat some liquid food and food without any seasonings.

"I'm Ruan Meiyu......" Ruan Meiyu had heard of Siyi, and when she saw the baby over there, she was suddenly full of apologies.

"You ???" Mrs. Siyi raised her head, glanced at Xing'er, and motioned for her to say something. Xing'er immediately replied: "You are not welcome here, you can go to your own room or the eldest lady's place." ”

Mrs. Ruan understood her situation, got up and left after saluting, only to hear Xing'er say over there: "What, dare to come here!" ”

Mrs. Siyi saw from her eyes that this woman was lonely and adrift, I was afraid that she had suffered a lot, and she also saw this woman's apology. On the contrary, there is some faint goodwill, inexplicable.

On the second day, the house was decorated with lights and a banquet was held to welcome the concubine, but the old lady was measured, afraid of falling into the mouth, so she did not invite those members of the court, but simply invited some relatives. For example, his sister, Mrs. Wang Xijun.

This old lady is known for being tricky and mean, but she has always been a friend of the old lady, and no matter what others say, the old lady trusts her sister immensely. Mrs. Wang came to Cheng's Mansion wearing a navy blue robe, and the old lady was busy going out to greet her, the two old men had not seen each other for a long time, and they had a lot to say, and while talking, Mrs. Wang asked about Mrs. Ruan's situation.

"Ruan Xiaoxiao's daughter, do you remember that Ruan Xiaoxiao? My husband was almost lost that day. The old lady only said these words to her own sister.

"That's okay, how can you marry the daughter of a prostitute in one room, the third room is already so unbearable, add another room like this, how should the Cheng family deal with themselves in the future?" Mrs. Wang said in a word.

"That is to say, and I think this girl may not be the clean family, and she may not be able to add a child to the Cheng family, so I think it will be faster to get rid of it in the future. I don't dare at the moment, for fear of falling into the mouth. The old lady whispered.

"Xu'er's taste is getting heavier and heavier, how did you find one such character after another? Isn't this the first love??? Old Madam Wang asked.

The old lady nodded and sighed helplessly. Mrs. Wang was busy slapping her sister's back, and said with a smile: "Let that girl be a little angry with me today, sister, you are too indulgent of these people." ”

The old lady nodded again and said, "If this is not Xu'er's first love, I know that he is reluctant, otherwise he will not be allowed to enter my Cheng Mansion." ”

The two old ladies supported each other, and took some girls and women straight to the main hall. Mrs. Ruan has put on a red Xifu, Cheng Xu has also put on a red dress, and a bunch of people are waiting for the arrival of the old lady.

"Let's get started." The old lady helped the phoenix hairpin on Mrs. Ruan's head and instructed her subordinates to start the ceremony. The main hall was full of people, the eldest lady sat on the right with her daughter, the second lady sat on the left with her daughter, and the third lady sat on the left side with a smile in swaddling clothes. A group of girls and mothers-in-law watched, and there were several relatives, sitting on the square benches on the left and right. The Cheng family doesn't have much movement with her on weekdays, and this time she didn't want to be too public, so she only posted a post and called Mrs. Wang's family, including her two daughters-in-law, who were not easy to mess with, and they were all sideways with a face.

"Worship heaven and earth." Just listen to the master of ceremonies. The two red-dressed men immediately turned around and bowed to the heaven and earth at the entrance of the main hall.

"Two worship the high hall." At this sound, the two of them hurriedly bowed to the old lady and the old lady Wang who were sitting upright.

"Husband and wife worship each other." The two of them bowed to each other, and this time, Feng Chai was accidentally thrown to the ground by Mrs. Ruan.

"Madame Ruan, come here." Old Lady Wang said solemnly. Mrs. Ruan saw that something was wrong, so she hurriedly walked over to Mrs. Wang's side, only to see Mrs. Wang say: "Fengchai is a symbol of our status as a woman, your identity is not worthy of it, but the old lady loves you and gives it to you, you should cherish it." You don't know the rules so much, you have to be educated. ”

When the eldest lady heard this, her heart was full of joy, not to mention how happy she was, she felt that an enemy was about to be executed. Mother Sui next to her hurriedly touched her, she knew what it meant, and hurriedly said: "Aunt old lady doesn't have to be like this, she doesn't know the rules, just teach it slowly." ”

"How can that be, Ruolan, you are just too soft, so you are always bullied." After speaking, Mrs. Wang said to Mrs. Ruan: "Go out and kneel, you can't get up without my order." Mrs. Ruan glanced at Cheng Xu, Cheng Xu was also very helpless, turned her face away, there was no way, Mrs. Ruan had to kneel.

Mrs. Ruan's fate was tragic, and she wanted to save her, but she didn't have a good reason to plan, all of this was seen by Xing'er, and she thought of a good way.
