Looking at each other, Baochai's eyes moved slightly and finally lowered their eyes.
Feng Ziying sighed lightly and said calmly: "Sister, you don't believe in Brother Yu?"
Baochai shook his head and raised his gaze again, "Why did Mr. Feng say this?"
"Then why did you suddenly think of Baoqin and Brother Yu as concubines?" Feng Ziying's face remained unchanged, and she said leisurely: "Yes, it is indeed a bit troublesome for Baoqin to be divorced this time, but if it takes two or three years to find him again,
It is not impossible to find a suitable family. My sister said that Mei Zhiye is in charge of the Shuntian Prefecture, so I am afraid it will have some influence. The Baoqin can also be found by scholars from other places, including Yangzhou, Shandong, and Datong..."
Baochai didn't mind Feng Ziying prying into his thoughts, Baochai shook his head.
"My little sister knows what Feng Lang is suspicious of, and she doesn't deny that there are indeed some reasons for this. I believe that Feng Lang can handle it in the end, but my wife will definitely have comparisons. Sister Shen's family, us, and even Sister Lin are all
Differently, the Shen family is a scholarly family in Gusu. His father is a fourth-rank official in the imperial court, his brother is also a civil servant, and his younger brother is a high school Jinshi in Jinke. They have a bright future, so naturally they don't have to worry about what will happen to her husband's family.
, so my younger sister also admires Sister Shen very much. She didn’t even bring a family member here, so my wife will definitely not care, but this may not be the heritage of the Shen family.”
Feng Ziying raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Baochai to think so far-reaching.
It is true that Shen Yixiu didn't bring any family members. He had to bring a companion, a maid, and even a servant. It's not that the Shen family didn't have any, but Shen Yixiu didn't bring them. Even the maid was arranged by Feng Ziying.
Duan also knew this, and was even a little dissatisfied with Qingwen, a girl who looked too charming and charming. But fortunately, after Qingwen followed Shen Yixiu, she became very popular with Shen Yixiu and repeatedly praised her in front of Duan, so Duan was slow to
My impression slowly changed.
If you bring a lot of companions, maids, and servants over, it can certainly help with many things and show the strength of your mother's family, but from another perspective, it can also easily cause conflicts. After all, these people all consider themselves young ladies.
Yes, without ten years and eight years of hard work, it would be impossible to reverse this deep-rooted mentality.
That’s why Shen Yixiu didn’t wear it. This reflects the Shen family’s heritage and self-confidence, and they don’t need these to add to their performance.
"But the Xue family is now in decline. Maybe Feng Lang doesn't care, but the younger sister has to consider the situation after marrying into the Feng family in the future. She also has to consider the wife's thoughts. If Baoqin and the younger sister marry into the Feng family together, at least the second wife will be married.
The weight of the Xue family here is also a bit heavier."
An indescribable loneliness appeared on Baochai's face. When she saw Feng Ziying shaking her head in disapproval, Baochai didn't care, "Of course, my little sister thinks that Baoqin's current situation is indeed not good. If Baoqin is to marry away from another place, just
I'm afraid that the second aunt will be reluctant to leave her again. Besides, the younger sister can also see that Bao Qin also has some affection for Feng Lang..."
Feng Ziying couldn't sit still and said quickly: "Where do you start talking about this?"
Baochai smiled and said, "My little sister didn't say anything about Feng Lang. Feng Lang is elegant and majestic. Even the girls in Rongning's second house admire him a lot. Feng Lang saved his second uncle once, so Baoqin will
It's normal to have some feelings of repayment and admiration..."
Feng Ziying shook her head repeatedly, "When my sister said this, Brother Yu was really restless."
At this time, Baochai seemed much more relaxed, as if he had put down the stone in his heart, "Feng Lang, you and I are like this now, is there anything else that we can't talk about? My little sister is breaking her heart, she just doesn't want to
Let Feng Lang misunderstand,..."
Feng Ziying was also a little moved, and said with emotion: "I told you, before I go to Yongping, the officials will definitely come to the Xue family to propose marriage. I will convince my mother, and my sister doesn't have to worry about whether her mother will marry her in the future.
Do you have any dissatisfaction with you, and Brother Yu also believes that my sister’s wisdom in dealing with others will definitely satisfy my mother."
Baochai was also very happy that Feng Ziying trusted her to get along with her future mother-in-law. She knew her son better than her mother, and she also knew her mother better. Feng Lang must have a very good understanding of her mother-in-law's temperament, and he also knew his own personality.
That's why we have such a certain judgment.
"Mr. Feng, don't think that the matter about Bao Qin is just a sudden whim. In fact, when Bao Qin might be divorced, the younger sister had this plan. The younger sister also vaguely mentioned it to Bao Qin.
Bao Qin has not responded directly, but the younger sister is sure that Bao Qin is not resistant to this, and maybe she is still worried about Feng Lang's thoughts."
Feng Ziying really couldn’t answer Baochai’s words. It was neither rejection nor acceptance. How could he not know how talented Baoqin was? But...
Seeing the ever-changing look on Feng Ziying's face, Baochai felt more and more that she was right in her decision. It not only solved Baoqin's difficulties, but also allowed herself to be more helpful in the future. Moreover, Baochai also believed that he, Feng Lang, was absolutely right for Baoqin.
If you don't have any affection at all, you can achieve three things with one stone, so why not do it?
“Sister, have you ever considered the thoughts of Second Aunt and Brother Slug?” Feng Ziying hesitated for a long time, then asked slowly.
Feng Lang said this, but Baochai was determined in his heart. This shows that Feng Lang had already agreed in his heart, but he still had to hinder the material discussion.
"Don't worry, Feng Lang. The second aunt may not be able to get what she wants, but she can also relieve her heart. What's more, Feng Lang is a dragon and a phoenix. It's Baoqin's blessing that Feng Lang can marry Feng Lang. What's wrong with my little sister and Baoqin?"
The second aunt naturally knows how to separate each other." Baochai smiled sweetly, "As for Brother Biao, I'm afraid he is also willing to do so. If Baoqin can have such a home, the Feng and Xue families will be more intimate and support each other in the future.
Isn’t that a beautiful thing?”
“That Baoqin himself...”
Seeing that Feng Ziying was still a little hesitant and worried, Baochai quickly cut through the mess, "There is absolutely no problem with Baoqin. The little sister knows Baoqin's intentions. Feng Lang does not need to worry, and there is no need to worry about wronging Baoqin. From now on, the little sister and Baoqin will be just like each other." one person,……"
Feng Ziying felt that if she continued to speak, she would be looking down on Baochai, so she quickly stopped: "Sister, there is no need to say anything. Brother Yu knows it."
Not to mention what Baochai and the second roommate of the Xue family said, Feng Ziying returned home and felt that Baochai's thoughts were still a little different from the past, and her mentality of worrying about gains and losses was obviously much heavier. Although she repeatedly promised, she still couldn't let it go. Its relief.
Feng Ziying could also understand that Shen Yixiu's talents, family background, and the fact that she was pregnant not long after entering the palace, plus the fact that her mother was particularly fond of her, put a lot of pressure on Baochai. In contrast, Daiyu was still There is a temporary buffering period of two or three years of hot filial piety, so there is no need to worry.
She is only seventeen years old. If the marriage succeeds, she will get married soon. Naturally, she will have to face the scrutiny and comparison of her mother. It is inevitable that she will feel a lot of pressure and imbalance.
************
“Sisters are also marrying together?” After hearing Feng Ziying explain the situation in a vague way, Duan became interested, “This is a good thing.”
Feng Ziying knew that this would definitely be a happy outcome for her mother.
When news came from Baochai, the second aunt of the Xue family and even Xue Biao were very happy. Although Baoqin did not say it explicitly, he also showed his intention to agree, which is already rare for a girl.
"Well, since the mother has already met Baochai, the son is thinking that it is better to settle the matter as soon as possible. The son will go to Yongping Mansion in a few days, so if the mother makes a settlement, the son can go to the official palace. Master said." Feng Ziying urged.
Mrs. Duan was very helpless, but she also knew that she still could not defeat her son after all.
Of course, what her sister said that day touched her a lot. In addition, Baochai was invited to the house and she went to see her. She was indeed a beautiful woman, with well-proportioned bones and plump flesh. At first glance, she was indeed a capable person. Duan's healthy physique made her very happy.
"Forget it, Brother Keng, just go and tell your aunt about preparing the betrothal gift, but have you considered the specific date?" Since Mrs. Duan had already agreed in her heart, she also considered the specific matters.
"I'm only going to Yongping in the first half of the year. I'm afraid it won't be easy to ask for leave from the court, so it's best to leave it in the second half of the year." Feng Ziying had already made plans, "It would be best if it's in December. You can also use the spring break. Come back to arrange other matters."
“Well, Brother Keng, what you said makes sense. Then after Mrs. Xue gets married, will she be arranged to go to Yongping with you?” Duan asked.
“This is the only way to go. Wan Jun will have to nurse the child in a short period of time after giving birth, so we can only let Baochai and the others come over. Otherwise, it doesn’t seem appropriate to not come at all.” Feng Ziying hesitated.
When officials go to their posts, some do not bring their families, and most of them take concubines on the spot, which is the most convenient. Some officials need to bring their families, but Feng Ziying also knows that many people are paying attention to her whereabouts. After arriving in Yongping Mansion, she is afraid that the heat will also increase.
It won't be much lower, especially since this is the first mansion in Jingdong. If I don't even take my family with me, it will be okay in the short term, but in the long term, I will definitely be criticized.
"Well, if that's the case, then why not move forward a little earlier? September and October will be the right months." Duan thought more in her mind, "If we get married in September or October, we might be able to get pregnant before the child is born. If Wanjun gives birth here,
, if the Xue family can get pregnant, they can come back and stay during the spring break, and it will be convenient for the house to take care of her."
"Since the mother has this intention, the son has no objection, but he still needs to discuss it with the Xue family to find a solution."
The approval from the Ministry of Rites regarding the Feng family’s second wife and mother-in-law has finally come down. This will inevitably arouse a discussion, especially among the Jia family, which will cause even greater shock.
Feng Ziying convinced her mother without giving many people any room to think, and then asked her official Ying Zhen to propose marriage to the Xue family.
Qi Yongtai, Qiao Yingjia and Guan Yingzhen proposed marriage for their third wife respectively, which was considered a balance.
However, the Xue family's marriage proposal still aroused Guan Yingzhen's curiosity, and Feng Ziying also took advantage of the opportunity to introduce the Xue family's intention to participate in exploration and colonization in Denglai to Guan Yingzhen, and won Guan Yingzhen's full support.
