Nowadays, Xu Shuren is dressed luxuriously, her face is red, and she looks very proud.
As the head wife of the first-class uncle's house, Xu Shuren was dressed in the auspicious robe of the imperial concubine and a Zhai crown on her head. She led her two young daughters-in-law, first to the Yi Nian Palace to pay homage to the Queen Mother, and then to the Chang Yi Palace.
As usual, Wen Xiaotu first asked about the current situation of his father and brother at home, and then asked his wet nurse to come out to meet her grandmother with porridge and rice.
Seeing her grandson and granddaughter getting fatter and stronger, Xu Shuren smiled from ear to ear, but she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"What's wrong, mother?" Wen Xiaotu was a little confused when Xu Shuren was distracted frequently.
Xu Shuren hesitated for a moment, then spoke: "A few days ago, the eldest master came to our house and talked with me and the master for a long time. The conversation was all about the draft. The queen also knows about it.
The seven girls in the house are already in their hairpins..."
Speaking of this, how could Wen Xiaotu not understand what this eldest uncle meant? She was not angry, but smiled, "What? The eldest brother wants to send the seventh girl into the palace?!" - She
The eldest uncle indulged in wine and sex, but he gave birth to a lot of concubine children, which made the back house very disgraceful. Now he is seeing his second wife getting promoted to a higher position, and he has always been inferior to his younger brother. Now he is a third-rank Nongsang Secretary, and he has also been granted the title of earl.
, this is because you want to sell your daughter for glory!
Xu Shuren immediately said: "I will not agree to this kind of thing. But the empress also knows that the master has always been soft-spoken, but the master did not agree. He only said that he would ask me to enter the palace and ask the empress what she meant. If the empress does not need it,
Please help me, so I went to reject the big house."
As she said that, Xu Shuren murmured angrily: "Even if the queen really needs someone to help her, she can't choose someone with a big house! The two families have been separated for many years. Although this seventh girl has good looks, her character is unknown, and she is not the same as the queen.
We grew up together and have a close relationship. It’s not like our uncle’s house is empty!"
Huh? What does the last sentence mean?
Wen Xiaotu frowned: "I have no such plan!"
Xu Shuren showed a look of reluctance, "I also know that this kind of thing is to poke at the heart of the empress. But I heard that the emperor has gained a few new favorites now... How is the empress doing recently?"
Wen Xiaotu also knew that Xu Shuren was just worried about her, so she said: "Don't worry, mother, although the emperor has a new favorite, he is not as good as me."
Xu Shuren sighed, she knew her daughter's appearance, but her heart... couldn't calm down after all, "I don't want to say such things, but don't worry, I can still control our uncle's girl."
.The biological mother of the sixth girl, Ru Ning, is my dowry girl, and I hold all the deeds of the whole family. Alas, but Runing’s appearance is really not outstanding enough, but it is worse than that of the seventh girl..."
Wen Xiaotu was speechless and choked. Why did Xu Shuren become more verbose?
"Mother!" She interrupted Xu Shuren, "The emperor has already announced that there will be no draft this year!"
After saying this, Xu Shuren was stunned for a moment, "Don't choose?"
Wen Xiaotu said: "Yes, the emperor has only made one election in so many years since he has been on the throne? It is expected that he will not choose this year."
After hearing this, Xu Shuren breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay not to choose." Otherwise, if a new person is added, something might happen.
Xu Shuren frowned, "In this case, the eldest master has nothing to say." - This eldest master is really a headache, because he values brotherhood too much!
In the memory of the original owner, the sixth sister Ru Ning was a quiet little girl. Now she is only fourteen or fifteen years old. Their second wife has four legitimate children, so the children born from a concubine have no sense of existence. However, Xu Shuren has always been virtuous and has never been for anything.
I feel sad for Ru Ning and her little mother.
Wen Xiaotu said: "Mom, please choose a good family for your sixth sister."
Xu Shuren nodded, "Ru Ning is not young anymore. When Song'er marries the county lord, we will choose a well-matched family for her. This girl has some luck." - The second bedroom is now an Earl's Mansion, originally it was a Earl's Mansion.
You can only choose a young and promising eldest son or a concubine of an official. Now that the sixth girl is the daughter of the uncle's house and the sister of the imperial concubine, the marriage must not go wrong, otherwise it will lose the face of the uncle's house and the empress.
Wen Xiaotu nodded. It was not easy to be a woman in ancient times, and it was even more difficult to be a concubine. He then said: "When mother has chosen a family, send someone to tell me so that I can give my sixth sister a make-up." - This is it.
It means that someone will support her when she gets married in the future. Although she, as a royal concubine in the palace, actually has no control over the outside world, it is enough to support the scene.
Xu Shuren knew that her daughter was kind-hearted, so she nodded in agreement.
The second wife, Mrs. Shen, who was standing by, smiled and said, "Our mother-in-law is kind-hearted and always generous with her actions. The sixth sister is really lucky!"
Only then did Wen Xiaotu notice that the second sister-in-law and the fourth sister-in-law were still standing behind Xu Shuren. She didn't say anything for a long time. She said with a shy smile: "I am neglecting you. The second wife and the fourth wife should also sit down."
In fact, when you are a daughter-in-law, you rarely have the opportunity to sit down. In the past, in the boudoir, the two sisters-in-law would always stand by and serve Xu Shuren. On the contrary, the original owner, Wen Rutu, the younger sister, could always sit next to Xu Shuren.
The second wife, Mrs. Shen, looked flattered: "Your Majesty's words are really embarrassing!"
Hong Guo Bi Xin had already moved the embroidered pier forward. Second wife Shen and fourth wife Xin quickly thanked them and then sat down carefully.
Wen Xiaotu couldn't help but look at his fourth younger brother and sister, who was Xin Ruozhi's cousin. Xiao Xin had a face as silver as a plate, skin as white as snow, eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes. She was a classical beauty with a quiet demeanor, and indeed looked nothing like Xin Ruozhi.
.
Wen Xiaotu smiled and said to Xu Shuren: "Previously, Concubine Xian told me that this cousin is not as lively and lively as she is. Now that I see it, she is indeed demure and gentle."
The fourth wife, Mrs.
However, Xu Shuren looked very satisfied with her daughter-in-law. She smiled and said, "Brother Song's daughter-in-law has such a good temperament. She is the lady of our family! Everyone in the family likes her very much."
That's good. Wen Xiaotu feels at ease. There are so many like-minded people in the world. It's great to be able to like each other.
After entering the palace this time, Xu Shuren stayed in Changyi Palace for a full hour, but she did not leave any food and insisted on leaving before noon.
Wen Xiaotu leaned on the beauty couch in the inner room and exhaled slowly. Fortunately, there was no draft this year, otherwise the Wen family's big house would have been endless.
Hongguo said cautiously: "My dear, please don't be angry."
Wen Xiaotu shook his head: "I'm not angry, I'm just a little annoyed." - In the eyes of some unreliable fathers, the daughter's family is just an object that can be sold for profit!
Wen Jiayuan has two houses, and his daughter's family has as many as thirteen, most of them are from the big house, and most of them are concubines. Compared with Wen Li, his father Wen Qi is actually a rare good man and father.
.
Even so, she still has two younger sisters who were born from a common concubine and a younger brother who was born from a common concubine. The sixth sister, Ru Ning, is already in her hair age, the ninth sister, Ru Hui, is still in childhood, and the ninth younger brother, Cheng Sen, has just been weaned.
Ru Ning's biological mother was Xu Shuren's dowry girl, Ru Hui's biological mother was a concubine given to her by her boss when Wen Qi was in office earlier, and Cheng Sen's biological mother was a son of the Wen family, and all three concubines were
She sold her body, and the deed of her body was held in Xu Shuren’s hands. That’s why the second wife was able to live in peace for many years.
Xu Shuren is a good wife and mother in the traditional sense, but she is also quite skillful.
