Lin Qingxue raised her head, with red eyes, looked at Shen Wan with an aggrieved look and asked, "Sister, are you still blaming Qingxue?"
"What's wrong with you? Why should she blame you?" Mrs. Qin pulled Lin Qingxue and said: "Your father saved General Song's life. When he was dying, he asked an orphan to let you marry General Song as his concubine. It was already wronged. The Song family should have happily welcomed you into the house, but Mrs. Song blocked her and made the emperor look down upon her and grant her the marriage. What's your fault?"
Shen Wan said calmly: "Mrs. Wang is right. You are not wrong. I didn't blame you. I only blamed Song Heng."
"It is common for men to have three wives and four concubines. How can any wife blame her husband for this?"
"That's right, there's something wrong with you thinking that way."
"No wonder, General Song and Mrs. Song are even more affectionate."
After the ladies finished speaking, Shen Wan said: "I am a country person. We country people are simple and simple, and the rules are different from those in the city. In our country, we do not advocate three wives and four concubines. All are monogamous. , a pair of people for life. If there is a heartless man in that family who takes concubines and steals people, he will be scolded in the spine. "
"When Song Heng married me, he knelt in front of my parents and promised that he would only be with me for the rest of his life, that he would love and protect me, and would not let me suffer or be wronged. There was a war at the border, and he was forced to join the army. I was pregnant with my belly. I raised a family, took care of my sick mother-in-law, and raised my young daughter. It has been five years since he left. During these five years, man-made and natural disasters continued, and I suffered all the hardships and grievances. Now, he has broken his promise and betrayed me. , how can I blame him?"
Shen Wan looked at the ladies who just talked about her and asked.
Princess Ren couldn't help but think of Prince Ren twenty years ago. At that time, he said that he would love her and protect her for the rest of her life. However, as soon as she gave birth to Yun'er, he accepted his concubine into the house.
Everyone was silent. Although they were all born as pampered young ladies, after hearing what Shen said, they could all think of how she, a pregnant woman, had to support a family during the years when General Song was in exile. , how difficult it is? Moreover, General Song has promised this before, so it is no wonder that she was so opposed to it at the beginning.
Recalling back then, their husbands also said what General Song said. But after two or three years, they brought in one concubine after another. What can they do? They can only stay in the back house. Fight with those little bitches.
An older lady looked at Shen Wan and said persuadingly: "It's not easy for you too, but now that it's like this, you should be more open-minded!"
"Yes! General Song also has you in his heart and feels that he owes you. Otherwise, he would not have waited until the emperor granted marriage before welcoming this young lady in."
"General Song doesn't want to take concubines at all. This is just a trick of fate. You have to be more open-minded."
Seeing that many ladies began to comfort and persuade Shen Wan, Lin Qingxue couldn't help but be a little confused. Shouldn't they be accusing this country woman of being unkind and generous, and being stingy and jealous? Why are they all talking to her instead? ?
"After all, it's all Qingxue's fault. Qingxue shouldn't have followed her father's last words and wanted to become a concubine in the house. I should have gone to the temple to be a aunt." Lin Qingxue said in a more choked voice.
Shen Wan rolled her eyes in her heart, looked at Lin Qingxue and said, "You're right, I don't blame you either. Vice General Lin saved Song Heng's life, but he only allowed you to come into the house as a concubine. He has already wronged you." You know, in our countryside, parents would rather keep their daughters at home and raise them as old maids than let their daughters join a wealthy family as concubines."
"You should stop crying. Today is a good day for Princess Liufang. It is not good for you to cry here."
A look of disgust flashed in Princess Ren's eyes. Today is the day when her family's daughter gets her haircut. What does Mrs. Lin look like crying?
Lin Qingxue was so excited that she quickly collected her tears and wiped the tears on her face with a handkerchief.
Standing up, Princess Chongren said to her, "I'm sorry, Princess, it's Qingxue who lost her temper."
Princess Ren had no expression on her face and didn't speak. She just shook her head slightly.
Lin Qingxue glanced sideways at Shen Wan, this damn country woman was the reason Princess Ren was angry with her because of her.
Lin Qingxue sat down silently, and some ladies also began to think about what Shen Wan had just said.
Logically speaking, this Lin Qingxue is a wealthy lady, and Vice General Lin died to save Song Heng. With such a great kindness, Vice General Lin can let his daughter marry Song Heng as his equal wife. But why should he feel wronged? His daughter is a concubine? Moreover, Lin Qingxue is good-looking and has good character. How come she is not married or engaged at the age of seventeen? Is it possible that Lin Qingxue has some hidden disease?
Many ladies began to have wild thoughts and guesses in their minds. After all, if this matter was abnormal, it would be a monster, and they could not tolerate their wild thoughts.
In fact, Lieutenant General Lin originally wanted Lin Qingxue to marry Song Heng as his equal wife, but he was embarrassed to say it. He thought that he would save his life and leave him alone at the end of his life, and Song Heng was too embarrassed to let his daughter As a concubine, he would marry his daughter as a concubine. But he didn't expect that Song Heng was a real person. He said he wanted his daughter to be a concubine, and Song Heng really only wanted to accept his daughter as a concubine.
If the emperor hadn't given him the marriage, he wouldn't be able to rest at ease underground.
