Chapter 166: Bad Hearts Have Sweet Dreams
"Oh, auntie, what are you afraid of? What is needed is their talent and character. Tell me to say, it's good to be poor, such talents, let's help buy houses and land, and are you afraid that they won't repay each other in the future? Our Liao family is now the largest family in the capital, but it is still looked down upon, why? Isn't it because there are no such talents?"
Concubine Liao raised her eyelids: "Who dares to look down on it? Don't be cranky."
"My cousin was the first to look down on the Liao family." Liao's eyes were full of tears: "Yes, he is a prince, and he is the first genius in the capital, both civil and military. My brothers are tied together, and they are no match for him. But if Jiang Yanhui and Zhao Chu both become members of the Liao family, and we will help the prince's brother attract a group of scholars in the future, will the cousin still look down on his grandfather's family? Auntie, this is a good thing in public and private."
"Well, don't say it, you're more knowledgeable than I am on this point."
Concubine Liao also sat up with great interest and asked Qian, "Have you ever inquired?" Aren't those two sons married in their hometown?"
Qian said with a smile: "When they first entered the mansion, they had already inquired about good things, both of them were dedicated to reading sage books, and they hadn't had time to start a family, and they hadn't even decided on their relatives."
Concubine Liao nodded slowly, and Liao Shi wondered, "Auntie, there is only one ninth sister in our family who is not married, one is enough, do you still want to take both of them in?"
"Stupid." Concubine Liao glared at her: "Xiao Jiu is a concubine, is there no girl of the right age on the side branch?" These two are dragons and phoenixes among people, and it is good to be able to collect them all."
Qian said on the side: "I'm afraid that these talented people are high, and I'm afraid that they will be contaminated with a reputation that climbs, so they won't marry us."
Liao sneered, "With what kind of talent is he, can he still drink wind and dew? What is Qinggao? Can you eat or drink? Or can you change them into a big mansion with three entrances, like beautiful flowers? Sure enough, if they are so high, they won't come to the palace to spend the night."
Qian Shi hurriedly said, "Grandma is right, in the end, I am shallow."
Concubine Liao also nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's a bit gratifying to finally come these days."
The Liao family also got up, and said with a smile: "After the list is released today, they will definitely come back, how can there be no reason not to thank the palace for taking care of it these days?" Mother Qian, you go to the kitchen, let Na Du Sanniang prepare a table of banquets, be sure to ask her to be careful, if there is a little difference in the pool, and it will fall into the prestige of my palace, I will not spare her."
"Yes."
Qian agreed. Here the Liao family discussed with Concubine Liao: "It's not good for our women's family to come forward in this matter, so we have to find my cousin to deliver the word, I don't believe it, so Jiang Yanhui and Zhao Chu are arrogant and arrogant, and they dare to disobey the prince?" Moreover, I heard that they and their cousins were friends."
"Okay, when Changting returns home today, you will invite him to your courtyard to discuss this matter. Yes, didn't you tell me last time that you were going to give Guizhi to Changting as a housekeeper, and you had to buy two more new people, why haven't you moved until now? Didn't you find a good one?"
"What." Liao Shi said indignantly: "Now that my cousin is fascinated by the Na Xin clan, he doesn't want Guizhi, and he doesn't want the newcomer, so let me match Guizhi out as soon as possible." I'm just such a reliable girl by my side, and he's clearly trying to pull out my minions."
"Gui Zhi is not young, it's time to match someone."
Concubine Liao felt that her son was right, but she heard Liao mutter, "Xinghua and Lychee are not matched yet, which round will you get Guizhi?"
Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Concubine Liao: "Auntie, I suddenly remembered something, I heard the little girl magpie and plum blossom in my courtyard talking before, saying that I saw Tian's mother's lame son delivering vegetables to the kitchen, and happened to meet the apricot blossom, and was dumbfounded, and then asked whose girl it was, and I heard that it was Aunt Xin's marriage, so I went to the court, you say, will he be in love with the apricot blossom?"
Concubine Liao frowned and said, "These bastard words, you should reprimand the little girl, why do you still take them out?" If Xin's wants to marry Xinghua to that cripple, how can she be willing? I don't think you're going to waste your mind."
Liao sneered, "Yes, how can I compare to Aunt Xin's majesty now? Naturally, she wouldn't listen to what I said. Dantian's mother is an old man in your yard, and her son is ugly and temperamental because of his lame legs
It's not good, you don't have a daughter-in-law yet, you have to take care of her for the sake of her diligent service to you, don't you? Even the Xin family is from our palace, not to mention her girl, if you always open your mouth to match the apricot blossom to that cripple, I don't believe she dares to object, then it won't be disobedient?"
Concubine Liao pondered for a moment and muttered, "Why bother to offend the Xin family to death in this kind of thing......
Before he finished speaking, he was dragged by Liao's arm, and heard her say hatefully: "It's already a fire and water, what is my aunt afraid of? I also know that matching Xinghua with that cripple can't knock Xin's arrogance down, but it's just disgusting to her once, isn't she a calf protector? Even Aunt Gu protected her, and Aunt Feng wanted to save her. Now that my personal girl can't protect her, she has been beaten and scolded every day when she gets married, I see how uncomfortable she is, I just want to see her angry and powerless."
"Okay, what a big deal, you're right, it's time to teach the Xin family a lesson." Concubine Liao nodded: "Okay, this is all a trivial matter, you go back quickly, it is important to take care of the thanksgiving banquet of the children." Recruiting talents for our Liao family is a top priority."
"Yes."
Liao simply floated out of Concubine Liao's courtyard. Thinking of being able to recruit two handsome men for the Liao family, and then marrying Xinghua to a cripple, she almost laughed out loud when she thought of Xin Nian's shocked and angry but helpless face.
"Grandma, if these two things are really done, then it can be regarded as double happiness."
Gui Zhi flattered playfully beside him, and Liao nodded, "Yes." Anyway, let's get out of this bad breath in my chest first."
After speaking, I only heard Gui Zhi whisper: "I'm afraid that the prince will know, and I want to say that grandma instigated it......
"Huh! My cousin can think whatever he wants, and he won't come to my room now anyway......
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but feel depressed for a while, she turned her head to look at Gui Zhi, and said angrily: "It's not all that you are useless, if you can be attentive to your cousin and let him take you in, why did the two of us get to where we are today."
Gui Zhi said aggrievedly, "Why don't you want to be attentive? I have to give me this opportunity. The status and appearance of the slave and maid are far inferior to that of grandma, and it is normal for the prince to look down on me. It's just that the slave maid wants to help grandma win back the prince's heart, but she can't do it, and the slave and maid are really ashamed."
