Chapter 207: Oiran rumors
"Miss, a woman can only be offended when she has a good body, this is a piece of Madame's love for her daughter, if you don't drink, Madame knows, won't she be sad and cry!" Mama Zhang persuaded her with kind words on the side.
Lin Shuran was really a little afraid of seeing Wen's crying, since it was a piece of heart, she shouldn't spoil it, so she picked up the bowl and drank the warm ginseng soup.
Mama Zhang had a smile on her face, she knew that when she moved out of Mrs. Wen's, Lin Shuran couldn't bear her mother's sadness, and she would definitely drink the ginseng soup.
Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, as the son of the Xu family, Xu Mingchen took his younger brothers out of the house early to pay New Year's greetings, in previous years, no one came to the General's Mansion to pay New Year's greetings, but this year there are a lot, but Xu Junze has already instructed the housekeeper Xu An, today the main family is not a guest, and everyone who comes to pay New Year's greetings can be entertained by Uncle Chu and Uncle Feng.
Lin Shuran didn't expect Xu Junze to believe so much in Uncle Chu and Uncle Feng, who had just known each other for a long time, and later she learned that Uncle Chu and Uncle Feng were both famous people in the rivers and lakes, and such a person was willing to work by Xu Junze's side, which many people did not expect.
It's just that Xu Mingchen came back from paying New Year's greetings with his younger brothers outside, and he didn't look very good, and when he saw Lin Shuran, some wanted to hide, some simply lowered their heads, and a few older ones made their faces look the same as usual.
"What's wrong with you guys? Didn't you go to pay New Year's greetings? Could it be that you haven't received the New Year's money? Lin Shuran laughed and teased them, but found that they looked at each other, and reluctantly smiled and shook their heads.
"Mother, my brothers may be a little tired, I'll take them back first!" Xu Mingchen seemed to be afraid that his younger brothers would leak his mouth, so he hurriedly took them back to his courtyard.
Lin Shuran felt strange and muttered, "What's wrong with these children? Could it be that you are angry again outside? ”
But soon Lin Shuran knew what was going on, and the charm who went out to inquire about the news brought back the news, and now it is rumored everywhere outside that Yunzhou Oiran has entered the capital, and the fourth day of the first month resounded in Yunzhou and even the well-known Huaxianglou in the capital is going to be opened in the capital, and the most exciting news is not this, but the new Oiran lady Bai Shuangshuang is infatuated with the general Xu Junze, and he did not hesitate to risk his life to help him quell the rebellion in Yunzhou, and even followed all the way to the capital, and it is rumored that Xu Junze will marry her soon.
When Mei talked about these outside news, Lin Shuran always had a pale face, she didn't look angry or sad, she just listened quietly, and then waved her hand to let Mei go down.
"Madam, do you need the slave to go out again and inquire carefully!" Lingqin and Feiyue glanced at each other, usually they wouldn't talk too much in front of Lin Shuran, but Lin Shuran and Xu Junze had just had a round house last night, and today they heard rumors about Xu Junze and Oiran, which was like a basin of cold water poured on Lin Shuran's head, and they were worried that she would be hurt by the blow.
Lin Shuran smiled faintly and said, "No need, it's just some rumors, I won't take it to heart yet, you go down first!" ”
Just waiting for Lingqin and Feiyue to retreat, Honggu walked in, she looked at Lin Shuran sitting at the table and asked, "You really don't care about the rumors about Oiran and the Great General outside?" ”
"Honggu, I'm also a woman, how can I not care at all when I hear rumors about my husband and other women, unless I don't have that man in my heart at all!" Facing Honggu, Lin Shuran told the truth, but Honggu looked at her expression and found that she still looked relaxed and casual, without any angry and sad looks.
"You don't look like that!" Honggu also smiled, and sat down opposite Lin Shuran by the way, "I can help you get rid of that woman!" ”
Lin Shuran hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Aunt Hong, you must not do this, you can't Xu Junze have a woman next to him, I'll solve one, then what has become of me, if you want to grasp a man's heart, it has never been achieved by solving another woman, besides, if he has a different heart or doesn't like me anymore one day, I just tried my best to get what I really wanted, if he is not that kind of person, I will sprinkle and roll around unreasonably and even kill people and set fire because of jealousy, that is not to push him away, I'm not like myself anymore, the real relationship is never out of control, but trust and honesty, when Xu Junze comes back, I will understand it by asking him in person! ”
"You really don't need my help?" Honggu didn't expect Lin Shuran to look young, but she was so calm and rational about her feelings, maybe it was the previous relationship that sharpened her.
"No, no!" Lin Shuran hurriedly shook his head, "This is just something I expected a long time ago, and I will deal with it myself." ”
On the day Lin Shuran and Xu Junze got married, she knew that there would definitely be other women's involvement in her married life, of course, there would be many ways to "intervene", after all, Xu Junze's appearance, identity, and status were all there, plus three wives and four concubines were considered very normal in ancient times, and the love story of monogamy until old age is rare even in modern times, at first she didn't expect Xu Junze to guard her until she was old in this life.
Her concept of love is also very simple and straightforward, please do your best when you are in love, don't hurt each other when you don't love, everyone is good to get together and disperse, you can afford to put it down, even if she is in love with Xu Junze now, as long as he says that he has another woman in his heart, then she will let go very happily, the pain will definitely be painful, but the long pain is not as good as the short pain, a half-hearted man is not worth her love for too long.
Lin Shuran really doesn't care about the rumors, what she cares about has always been Xu Junze's true thoughts, but the children of the Xu family who heard this rumor care very much, a prostitute in the Qinglou also dares to think about Xu Junze, they will never allow anyone to destroy the relationship between Lin Shuran and Xu Junze that is gradually getting better, and they can't accept that another woman will appear in the General's Mansion.
In the evening, when Xu Junze came back from outside, he found that Xu Mingsong and Xu Mingsheng had been waiting for him at the gate, and the faces of the two children were frozen red.
"It's so cold outside, why don't you go back to your room?" Xu Junze saw that the two children were just staring at him, with some fear in their eyes, but their faces were very stubborn, and they clenched their little fists when they asked, as if they were looking for something to theorize about themselves.
Usually, the ninth Xu Mingsong and the tenth Xu Mingsheng are not very bold, but today when they heard someone outside say that Xu Junze might marry some Oiran to enter the door, they were very angry and angry, and felt that this matter had hurt Lin Shuran, so they mustered up the courage to wait for Xu Junze to ask clearly.
"Father, don't you want to be a mother anymore and want to marry someone else?" Lao Jiu Xu Mingsong gritted his teeth and asked boldly, at this moment, in order to ask Lin Shuran clearly, he was not afraid to face Xu Junze.
