The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 1785
[Chapter 1785 Liu Er Fanwai (68)]
Hearing that Xu Wenchang’s younger brother and sister were pregnant before marriage, Jiaojiao couldn’t help but say, “Even if she is pregnant, she doesn’t necessarily have to be a wife? Li’s character is so bad, how can she marry home? Be the first lady.” When she was pregnant, Na went home and became a concubine. While this is a little innocuous, it’s the best way to go in the long run.
“Xu Wendong didn’t like her either. He was under Li’s calculations.” Obviously, Xu Wendong was not as shrewd as his brother.
Speaking of which, Liu Er couldn’t help shaking his head and said, “The barefooted person is not afraid of wearing shoes. Xu Wendong was already famous as a scholar at that time, and the Li family threatened him to go to the yamen to sue him if he didn’t marry the Li family, causing his reputation to be ruined.”
Jiaojiao was a little puzzled: “Mother, the recruiter is the wife and the concubine. With what the Li family has done, even if she sue the yamen, she can only be a concubine. As for the threat of the Li family, the Xu family would not threaten them if they wanted to. Can you be a threat?” The barefooted one is not afraid of the one wearing shoes, this is right. But the problem is, after Xu Wenchang took the exam, the Xu family and the Li family were no longer on the same level. As long as Xu Wendong publicized what Li Shi did, and then proposed to take her as a concubine, outsiders would not say anything about him.
“Xu Wendong knew that Mrs. Li was pregnant and wanted to take her as a concubine, but Mrs. Xu was unwilling. She directly invited a matchmaker to go to Li’s house to propose marriage, and the wedding date was set within three days. That’s it.” Mrs. Li is easy to deal with, but the old lady Xu is his biological mother. If he didn’t marry the Li family, it would be disobedient and unfilial. Unless Xu Wendong doesn’t want a career anymore, he can only pinch his nose and admit it.
Jiaojiao came to understand: “Mother, grandmother’s guess is too accurate, this old lady is really not a smart person.” It’s not wrong to want to kiss and kiss, but the premise is that the other party has good character! Even Mrs. Li’s character was too cold to be a concubine, but Mrs. Xu even asked her to be her daughter-in-law.
Liu Er said with a smile: “Mrs. Xu probably wants to use this method to help her mother’s family.”
There are many ways to help her mother’s family, but Mrs. Xu used the most undesirable one. By doing so, she is equivalent to cheating Xu Wendong for the rest of her life.
Jiaojiao shook her head and said, “With such a mother-in-law, I won’t worry about it in the future.”
Liu Er said indifferently: “The old lady of the Chen family is a powerful character, and Chen Xiangxue was brought up by her. With Chen Xiangxue’s means and ability, it should be easy to deal with an old country lady.”
“That’s right.” Chen Xiangxue didn’t only know about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. He is more tactful in life, and the steward is a good hand.
After gossiping about the Xu family, Liu Er told Jiaojiao about moving back to the Princess Mansion after the Lantern Festival: “It’s time to start sorting out your belongings.” Jiaojiao has a lot of things and must be sorted out in advance .
Jiaojiao was a little surprised: “Mother, why are you suddenly moving back to the Princess’ Mansion?” After living in the Duke’s Mansion for so many years, she was a little reluctant.
“Silly child, the Princess Mansion is our home. Even if we don’t move now, we will move when Brother Hu and the others get married. There are so many people right and wrong, and the families are separated. We all still live in the Guogong Mansion, I’ll be with you. She doesn’t care if Auntie has a good relationship. But Brother Hu and their daughter-in-law may not have no opinion. To avoid this kind of thing, it’s better to move back to the Princess Mansion as soon as possible.” As for the real reason, there is no need to tell Jiaojiao.
Jiaojiao thought about it too, and said no more.
When going to bed at night, Feng Zhixi said, “The mother still knows how to train people, but in two months, Jiaojiao has become much calmer than before.”
“This child listens to mother’s words the most. Mother asked her to study Nvhong for an hour a day, and she did as she did. After two months of study, it is no problem to make shoes and socks now.” , just look past it.
Feng Zhixi said with a smile, “She’s also a powerful mother, and she can treat Jiaojiao in a submissive manner.” Liu’er can’t do anything about it. She acts like a spoiled child or crys at her when she doesn’t want to do anything, but in the end it won’t work. That’s it.
Liu’er said with some regret: “I told my mother today that I will let Jiaojiao live in Baihuayuan for a while after the New Year. Unfortunately, my mother did not agree.”
“You’ll be content. The emperor, King You and their children have never lived in Baihuayuan for a long time.” Jiaojiao has lived in Baihuayuan for the longest time.
Liu Er didn’t answer this and said, “Mother said that she will go to Yucheng with her father next year, and she will leave when the spring begins, and it is estimated that she will not be back until the end of the year.”
Feng Zhixi frowned and said, “The Emperor Taishang and the Empress Dowager are getting older, isn’t it inappropriate to go that far?”
Liu Er said: “My father said that he would go to Yucheng to take a look while he was still healthy, and said that he would not be able to go if he wanted to.”
As Yunqing gets older, many things are beyond his ability. Hearing these words, Liu Er’s heart was sour, and she couldn’t say anything against it.
After the New Year, Liu Er brought Jiaojiao back to the Princess Mansion. As for Brother Leopard and Brother Ying, they stayed in the Duke’s Mansion. However, after two years of their marriage, they will definitely return to the Princess Mansion. So Liu Er, do not rush.
In mid-February, Yuxi and Yunqing set off for Yucheng. Qi Hao was not at ease and asked Qi You to put down the errand at hand and accompany the two of them.
In March, Liu Er and Jiaojiao said one thing: “The Chen family has an invitation to invite us to a wedding party.”
“Why are you still inviting me?” Normally, little girls who haven’t left the cabinet are generally not invited formally. However, if you have a good relationship with the bride-to-be, then invite the bride-to-be to have a wedding in her own name.
Liu Er shook her head and said, “Your name isn’t written on the post, but I want you to have a drink with me.” It was said outside that she rejected Xu Wenchang’s marriage proposal and would regret it. He even said that Jiaojiao would blame her for this in the future. So Liu Er wanted to let these people know that they would not regret it, and Jiaojiao didn’t take Xu Wenchang to heart.
It is said that people like Mrs. Chen and the eldest lady of the Chen family will not do such boring things. Jiaojiao said, “Mother, if you don’t want someone to send a gift, don’t take it to heart.” She has heard many people say that she will regret it in the future. This made her feel like a gust of wind.
Liu Er touched Jiaojiao’s head and said with a smile, “If you don’t want to go, don’t go, I must go.”
Jiaojiao looked suspicious.
Liu Er explained: “Your aunt won’t go, I will definitely go.” The Chen family and the Feng family have a good relationship, and now the Chen family’s married daughter invites the Feng family to a banquet. It’s a bit rude not to go alone unless there are special circumstances.
It is also that the descendants of the next generation of the Feng family have not married yet, otherwise it will be done by just letting a junior go.
Jiaojiao nodded and changed the subject: “Mother, I want to make a dress for A-Zhang, do you think it’s alright?” She felt that her needlework was not bad, so she wanted to express herself.
Liu Er smiled and said, “It’s better to make a purse for Zhaozhang first, and it’s not too late to make clothes later.” The main reason is that making clothes is too time-consuming, and it’s not like embroidering a purse with a few stitches.
It was also Liu’er who was worried that Jiaojiao wouldn’t have the patience to make her clothes. If I told Du Zhaozhang that I wanted to make clothes for him, then the clothes would be nowhere to be seen, which would make people happy.
Jiaojiao thought about it too.
When Chen Xiangxue got married, Liu Ertian got up and put on makeup before dawn.
The Chen family’s married daughter, like the others, did not make any waves. So after the wedding banquet, Liu Er went home.
A few days later, Jiaojiao got a message and immediately came to find Liu’er: “Mother, I heard that Sister Mimi was sent away by her grandfather. Mother, where did Sister Mimi go?”
Liu’er shook her head and said, “I don’t know either.”
Jiaojiao asked suspiciously, “How did grandfather know about this?”
Liu Er smiled bitterly: “On the day Xu Wenchang got married, Mimi cried and told your aunt to become a monk. Of course your aunt didn’t want to, but I didn’t expect her to go on a hunger strike. This is a big deal, your aunt just wanted to hide it. Can’t hide it.”
Feng Dajun knew about this and sent Mimi out of the capital in a fit of anger. Qiqi went to intercede, and was scolded by Feng Dajun, saying that her loving mother was too much of a failure.
“Your grandfather sent Mimi away, probably because he wanted to use a special method to wake her up.” Mimi has a marriage contract with the Han family, and the wedding date has been set. Now that the wedding date has not been changed, Liu Er feels that Feng Dajun is trying to break Mimi over.
“Cough, the third sister used to be pretty good except for her weak temperament. But since she met Xu Wenchang, she seemed to be a different person. Mother, I really can’t figure it out, the third sister just met Xu Wenchang once, why? It’s going to die and live!” It’s completely inexplicable!
Liu Er shook her head, indicating that she didn’t know either.
“The third sister tossed herself into a ghost for Xu Wenchang, and the saddest thing is my aunt.” After speaking, Jiaojiao asked, “Mother, how is it that Chen Xiangxue is married to the Xu family?”
Liu’er was so clear about the Xu family’s affairs before, she was the one who bought the servants brought by the Xu family from their hometown. The two got a lot of money, and naturally they said everything they knew. Now Liu Er doesn’t pay special attention to the affairs of the Xu family, so she really doesn’t know if Chen Xiangxue is doing well in the Xu family: “Since Chen Xiangxue married, the affairs of the Xu family will not be revealed.” It can be seen from this that housekeeper Chen Xiangxue is really powerful.
“That’s good.” With such a biological mother, it is not easy to think about Xu Wenchang. It is his blessing to have such a talented and capable wife.
In the days that followed, Liu’er arranged Jiaojiao’s dowry while showing her brother Leopard. As for Jiaojiao, she didn’t stay at home like other girls waiting to be married and never go anywhere. She took the invitations from her classmates and friends, and still went to the appointment as usual. If you come across a book meeting you are interested in, I will also participate.
The more you walk outside, the more news you hear. When she heard that Mrs. Xu called Chen Xiangxue a hen that didn’t lay eggs, Jiaojiao felt unbelievable.
When she got home, Jiaojiao told Liu Er about it, “It can’t be true, can it?”
“It wasn’t Mrs. Xu who scolded him, it was Mrs. Li. I don’t know what kind of dispute there was. Mrs. Li scolded Chen Xiangxue in front of outsiders as a hen that can’t lay eggs.” spread out.
Jiaojiao widened her eyes and said, “Mother, Chen Xiangxue has only been married to the Xu family for half a year, so how could the Li family say such a thing?” These words were not unpleasant.
“That woman originally wanted to marry Xu Wenchang, how could she please Chen Xiangxue.” If the Li family knew the shame, they wouldn’t have hooked up with the elder brother. Such a woman is shameless and can say anything.
