Ji Zi Volume Chapter 32 Shen Yixiu’s Thoughts (First update, please vote for me!)
The conversation with Lian Guo Shi was a bit tiring, and it was also the most laborious conversation Feng Ziying had since she came to this time and space.
Facing such a person who may become his most important assistant in the future, Feng Ziying does not dare to neglect, and needs to guide the other person's thoughts and ideas into his own preset track from the beginning.
Although a lot of preparation work has been done in the early stage, practicing state affairs is no ordinary person. He was able to win the Spring Festival Competition in the fifth year of Yonglong because he not only memorized classics and meanings, but also had a deep understanding of current affairs.
Therefore, Feng Ziying had also painstakingly sorted out some of her views and ideas in a comprehensive and systematic way in order to present them to the other party in the most perfect way.
From now on, it seems to be working well.
Walking home is a good time to pick up and collect my thoughts, and also consider some preparations for my next step in taking a job in Yongping Mansion.
Just like this, I walked back to Fengcheng Hutong carelessly, stepped into the gate of my mansion, and returned to my small courtyard, only to find that Shen Yixiu and Qingwen were not there. When I asked Yunshang, I found out that my mother and aunt had arranged for Shen Yixiu to be reconciled. Second Sister You called me over, no need to guess, she must be playing mahjong.
When I went to my mother's side, I saw, as expected, that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were having a great time.
Seeing her husband coming back, Shen Yixiu and Second Sister You quickly stood up. Naturally, Feng Ziying would not disturb her mother and aunt, so she quickly asked them to sit down and continue.
He also hoped to have such a relatively relaxed atmosphere, and by the way, he informed everyone that he was going to serve as a fellow magistrate in Yongping Mansion.
"Yongping Mansion?!" Upon hearing that her son's destination was determined to be Yongping Mansion in Gyeonggi Province, Duan lost interest in playing mahjong and ordered his servants to pack up the mahjong before letting Feng Ziying and others sit down. , "Brother Keng, did you choose it yourself, or was it arranged by your teacher?"
"It was my son's choice. In fact, my son could have chosen Jiangnan, such as Ningbo, Huangzhou in Huguang, or Nanyang in Henan. Logically speaking, the conditions are better than Yongping, but my son still chose Yongping. Pingfu." Feng Ziying controlled the rhythm of her speech very well, not only to make her mother feel dissatisfied, but also to let her know that she was not someone who could give orders casually.
"Oh?" Seeing her son's tone so calm and firm, Duan was a little unsure of the mystery here, "Isn't Ningbo Mansion better than Yongping Mansion?"
She also knew that she didn't know much about how to choose, but she also knew that whether it was Ningbo or Huangzhou, it would definitely be better than Yongping Mansion.
Yongping Mansion is just east of Shuntian Mansion, close to the sea. It cannot be said to be a remote place, but the public security is not stable and the folk customs are fierce. There are constant floods and droughts? My son chose to go here because it is close to the capital?
Are you worried that your daughter-in-law is too far along in her pregnancy to take care of her?
Has your son suddenly become so considerate of his family?
Feng Ziying didn't dare to talk about Baoding Prefecture? Otherwise, her mother would definitely be angry. No matter how, it is better than Baoding Prefecture than Yongping Prefecture, and it is also very close to the capital city? The geographical location is better? It has a larger population, and it is also first-class. Dafu, Qi Yongtai had always wanted Feng Ziying to go to Baoding Prefecture.
"In terms of conditions, Ningbo Prefecture is definitely better than Yongping Prefecture? Even Huangzhou and Nanyang Prefecture are better than Yongping Prefecture? But firstly, Yongping is very close to the capital city? My son can ask several masters for help at any time? Secondly, secondly, Yongping is very close to the capital city. To the north of Yongping Mansion is the area under the jurisdiction of Ji Town. My son went to Yongping Mansion this time to take advantage of the Ji Town Guards Station. Besides, my son may not stay there for too long. Two or three years is enough, so why have to leave? It’s too far. Besides, my son is considered a leader among young scholars in the North. Maybe it wouldn’t be a good idea to go to the south? …”
Feng Ziying didn't mention Shen Yixiu's pregnancy at all, but Shen Yixiu had a happy smile on his face. Her husband had already told him that he would choose Beidi? It would be best to choose the state closest to the capital city. This way you can have someone nearby to take care of you.
Although Shen Yixiu is very supportive of her husband's career, which woman doesn't want her husband to take pity on her? Although she has repeatedly persuaded her husband not to worry about her? She is in good health, and her mother-in-law and maids are taking care of her at home, so there is no need to worry at all. What, but her husband made such a choice that could take into account all aspects, which of course made her very satisfied.
Duan is also a shrewd person, so she doesn't understand that this is probably still affected by Shen's pregnancy, but she won't say anything. Her son is becoming more and more independent now, and she also has no idea about this kind of thing. I know that I can't help my son make a decision, he can only make his own decision.
"Brother Keng, just have your own ideas about this kind of thing. You don't have to worry about Wan Jun. Your aunt and I are with her, so nothing will happen to her." Mrs. Duan nodded, "Then If you want to go to Wanping, can you ask the second sister and the third sister to follow you?"
Now Feng Ziying only has two concubines, the second sister You and the third sister You. The Duan family is very satisfied with the second sister You. Although she is tall and looks like a bearded girl, she is soft-tempered, honest and kind, and has big breasts and buttocks. Feng, it looks like she is fertile. If she follows her son to Yongping Mansion, maybe the second sister You can get pregnant before the Shen family has given birth. That would be perfect.
As for Third Sister You, Duan also knows that she cannot be treated as an ordinary concubine. She has saved her son's life, and now that her son's reputation is growing, there will inevitably be people who are jealous and dissatisfied with her son. With such a woman who is proficient in martial arts in her son's Keeping yourself safe is more important than anything else.
"Wan Jun's son is worried that there is no care..." Feng Ziying hesitated for a moment, but Shen Yixiu had already answered: "My husband, don't worry, my mother-in-law and the others are taking care of me, and I am very safe, so I will let my two sisters accompany me." When my husband goes to Yongping, there must always be someone around to take care of him. The third sister has to help him take care of his safety, so the second sister should be more worried about this."
Second Sister You quickly stood up and said, "Don't worry, sister, I will definitely serve you well and serve your husband well."
Shen Yixiu also pursed his lips and smiled, "That's great. I really hope to hear about my sister's pregnancy as soon as possible."
The young and old Duans on the side all laughed, "Well, the second sister is so nice to serve. I also want to have more grandchildren. I have been looking forward to the fun of being around my knees for a long time."
Second Sister You's face suddenly turned red, but her eyes were full of love.
This time I followed my husband to Yongping Mansion. Even though Jin Chuaner, Xiangling and the other girls wanted to go with him, they definitely couldn't compete with me and my third sister. My sister was also useless in bed, and she had to serve the husband. If you have to do it by yourself, maybe if you bear a few more rains and dews, you can get pregnant by yourself.
Feng Ziying also liked this kind of harmonious atmosphere. The family lived in harmony, with three wives and four concubines, and the music played harmoniously. Only in this era could men have such a blessing of being together. In his previous life, he would not have dared to think like this.
Taking advantage of this joyful moment, Feng Ziying also wanted to talk about another matter, "My mother and aunt are both here, and my son also wants to report another matter..."
"Oh? What is it that deserves to be taken seriously by Brother Keng?" Duan asked suspiciously.
"It's like this. The imperial court is thinking about our son's counterinsurgency in Xijiang and his plan to open up the sea. In addition, the second uncle died of illness in Datong before and was unable to ascend the throne, so it feels that it is in debt. This time, the imperial court intends to reinstate our second brother in the Feng family to the title of Yunchuan. Uncle,..."
Among the people involved, only Shen Yixiu had known about this matter for a long time. The others were kept in the dark and knew nothing about it. However, Shen Yixiu had to pretend to have just learned about it at this time, with a face full of surprise.
Duan glanced at Shen Yixiu subconsciously.
At first, my husband was full of complaints because he failed to take the title of Uncle Yunchuan after his second uncle died of illness, but there was nothing he could do. In the end, General Datong took over, but in the end the title was only given to a general like General Shenwu. This also made everyone in the Feng family extremely dissatisfied.
This time, the imperial court suddenly wanted to reinstate the Feng family. My husband’s current position as General Shenwu was considered the third wife. So, the reinstatement of the second wife would also involve the issue of future raids. The only option was to continue to share the title of the second wife. The problem was that this question It's a good thing for the Feng family, but it may not be happy for Shen Yixiu.
So Duan first took a look at her daughter-in-law.
But when she saw her daughter-in-law's surprised expression but not much dissatisfaction or annoyance, Duan thought she didn't understand the mystery here. But then she thought about it, after being together for so long, her daughter-in-law was smart and lovely, and she was definitely not interested in this kind of thing. I didn’t understand the matter, but I didn’t show any displeasure, maybe because I thought she was the eldest lady, and she had a child in her belly, so no one could shake her status, right?
If that's the case, then it's Amitabha's fault. Mrs. Duan doesn't want to break her daughter-in-law's heart because of this. Besides, her daughter-in-law still has a baby in her belly, so be sure not to cause fetal contractions.
Ziying, on the other hand, seemed too hasty to talk about this matter without discussing it with her first. If she made Shen angry, wouldn't she be in a bad mood for no reason?
After coughing dryly, Mrs. Duan glanced at her son, and then said slowly: "The imperial court has this intention? Why did it suddenly come to mind at this time? What were you doing before?"
"Madam, this is also a good thing. Now that the eldest brother has inherited the inheritance, the second one is missing. Now that the court can show favor, the Feng family is very happy. We should all be happy..." Shen Yixiu naturally wanted to be there at this time. Have a good impression in front of my mother-in-law.
Shen Yixiu knew very well that since this matter was irreversible, a long-term plan was needed.
I am the eldest wife, and in the future I will have a second and third wife. How to establish a firm foothold in this big family, including husband, parents-in-law, sisters, servants, all aspects of the relationship need to be considered carefully, how to handle these well Shen Yixiu has already considered relationships and prioritization.
Apart from the husband, there are the parents-in-law in this house. The father-in-law is not around all year round, so the mother-in-law and concubine are the most important. As long as you win the approval and trust of your mother-in-law, you will basically be in an invincible position in the Feng Mansion.
