Chapter 182 The male protagonist’s best mother-in-law (sixty-nine)
During a full moon banquet, Zhao Qingsong, the second son of the Zhao family, suddenly became very popular.
The dignitaries in Beijing already know that Zhao Qingyun is in charge of the Zhao family.
Gu Qingcheng, the mother-in-law, and Han Jiaojiao, the new mistress, are not the ones in charge.
Zhao Qingyun has the final say in matters as small as food, rice, oil and salt, as well as in major matters such as marriage.
Therefore, those who want to get married with the Zhao family cannot let the female family members come forward as usual, but let the grown men run to Zhao Qingyun to talk to Zhao Qingyun.
"My second brother has indeed reached the age of marriage."
"However, he admires the champions. Although he does not dare to compare with the sages, he also wants to 'establish a career' first."
Zhao Qingyun politely refused all the dignitaries who came one after another to talk.
Establish a career first, then start a family.
It's a great excuse, and men can understand it.
Zhao Qingyun temporarily put it off, and when he got home, he found Zhao Qingsong.
"What do you think about your marriage?"
An eldest brother is like a father, not to mention that the Zhao family's situation is special.
In Zhao Qingyun's heart, his younger brother is his responsibility.
Now that my younger brother has grown up and has a future, marriage and other matters should also be put on the agenda.
When he was outside during the day, he would decline politely, not because he really wanted to refuse, but because he wanted to hear his brother's opinion first.
He can indeed make the decision for his younger brother, but he also hopes that his younger brother will get his wish!
"No, no idea!"
Zhao Qingsong tapped the floor with his toes, and there were two blushes on his dark cheeks.
Zhao Qingyun:...That's it, you still say you have no ideas?
"Well, the Prince of Jingan came to talk to me. He has several legitimate daughters and concubines, all of whom are of marriageable age. How about you go and see each other?"
Zhao Qingyun deliberately said this to Zhao Qingsong.
In fact, Zhao Qingyun had already rejected the Jinganhou family in his heart!
Doting on concubines and destroying wives will make the back house restless. Tsk tsk, just the women in the house of the Marquis of Jing'an are enough to make Zhao Qingyun respectful and insensitive.
The family tradition is bad and people are too stupid!
Marrying a wife is no better than marrying a daughter.
If your daughter marries the wrong person, at most it will harm her alone. And there is still a chance to make things right.
And if you marry someone into trouble, the whole family will suffer.
There is no need to bother to inquire, isn't his cheap father-in-law a bloody example?
Although the "downfall" of Cheng'en Palace was due to various reasons.
But the initial trigger was the stepwife.
If she wasn't stupid, the Xiao family would have to put in a lot of effort if they wanted to cause trouble.
The Zhao family was originally a "nouveau riche" and had just left the farming community. It would take three or four generations of hard work to become an aristocratic family.
Zhao Qingyun has a deep brotherhood with his younger brother and has never thought of separating him.
They all live in the same house. If the sister-in-law is not trustworthy, the Zhao family will fall apart sooner or later!
Zhao Qingyun, who has a clear goal and a heavy responsibility, will never allow such a thing to happen!
"I won't go! Brother, it's disturbing to hear that you are a concubine and a legitimate daughter."
Zhao Qingsong didn't know his brother's bad intentions and mistakenly thought that his brother really wanted to get married to the Marquis of Jing'an.
He shook his head like a rattle and kept rejecting it.
"It's good to know!"
Zhao Qingyun suppressed his smile and said in a deep voice, "Although our Zhao family is not a high-profile family, we still have our own rules."
"The first rule is that a man can only take a concubine if he is forty years old and has no children!"
Zhao Qingyun knows the importance of the back house.
All he wants is Han Jiaojiao as his wife.
As for concubines and beauties, haha, no matter how beautiful those women are, can they be more beautiful than their own mothers?
Even he, Zhao Qingyun, is also a rare handsome man.
Let him sleep with a beautiful maid, spoil a concubine, etc. It’s really hard to say who will suffer and who will gain!
Zhao Qingyun wants to rise to the top, wealth and sex, but he doesn't care.
He kept a clean mind and knew the dangers of wives and concubines fighting and unclear concubines, so when he wrote the family rules for the Zhao family, the first rule was that he was not allowed to have concubines.
"Yeah! Even if I really don't have a son, I won't take a concubine."
Zhao Qingsong is even more amazing than Zhao Qingyun, "If I really can't give birth to a son, I will adopt him from my eldest brother's family!"
"Hehe, my eldest brother and sister-in-law are both so good, so the nephew I gave birth to is definitely not bad either!"
The eldest brother is good-looking and smart.
His son, even if he only got three points of "true inheritance", is still an outstanding talent.
Hehe, if I get the top prize in the exam in the future, I will also be the father of the top pick.
Zhao Qingsong's big black eyes sparkled with dreamy light.
The veins on Zhao Qingyun's forehead were twitching: ...This brat has a pretty good idea.
His family is delicate and his body is weak. One experience of dystocia is enough to make Zhao Qingyun frightened.
Erlang, this stinky boy, actually wants to succeed his son, he wants to eat shit!
"Stop talking nonsense! Do you have a crush on me?"
Zhao Qingyun, who doesn't want to be the resentful brother, is too lazy to talk nonsense to his unlucky brother.
"..."
Zhao Qingsong giggled.
have to!
No need to ask, I must have a sweetheart.
"Okay, let's find a time for my mother-in-law and your sister-in-law to meet that little lady!"
Although Zhao Qingyun believes that no matter what kind of young lady she is, as long as she enters the Zhao family, her mother-in-law will get along very well with her.
However, Zhao Qingyun was filial to his mother and still hoped to marry a beautiful sister-in-law.
The most crucial point——
"Don't worry, brother, Qiang Qiang is the most filial person, and she won't be disrespectful to my mother-in-law!"
Zhao Qingsong looked careless, but he was very confident in his heart.
Moreover, he is also grandma’s son. He also knows that grandma is not easy, so he should be filial and take care of grandma!
He does like Qiang Qiang, but if Qiang Qiang looks down on his mother-in-law and cannot be filial to her, he, he would rather not have her.
Zhao Qingyun felt slightly relieved when he saw Zhao Qingsong's firm tone——
fine!
No sex makes you faint!
…
In the restaurant, Han Jiaojiao, who had just given birth, was sitting with Gu Qingcheng.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were leaning against the window, each holding a bowl of melon seeds in their hands, cracking them while talking and laughing at the people on the road downstairs.
"Eh? Jiaojiao, look, there's someone there who 'sold his body to bury his father'."
Sitting on the top floor of the restaurant, three stories high, you can see not only the scenery of this street, but also farther.
Gu Qingcheng's sharp eyes discovered that in a corner two streets away, something "happy to hear and see" was happening.
"Sell yourself to bury your father? Where?"
Han Jiaojiao spit out the melon seed rinds in her mouth, stretched her neck, and followed Gu Qingcheng's gaze.
She only saw a group of people surrounding her, but she didn't see anything about selling her body to bury her father.
Gu Qingcheng smiled, stood up, pointed at the two figures in the crowd and said, "Here, look, there is one lying on the ground, covered with a straw mat. Next to him is kneeling, wearing mourning clothes! He probably still has straw stuck in his head.
Where’s the mark?”
Han Jiaojiao squinted her eyes and looked at it carefully for a while before slowly nodding, "Yeah, so it turns out this is selling your body to bury your father."
"Oh, Jiaojiao, look, there's a bad boy coming!"
Gu Qingcheng's tone was very cheerful.
It's like a squid in the field discovering the biggest and sweetest melon.
"Ah? There really is a bad boy! Mom, let me see who is the stupid son of that family!"
It can't be said that Han Jiaojiao looks very much like Gu Qingcheng. Her eyes and movements are exactly the same as her mother-in-law.
The two women stood on tiptoe, holding on to the window, and looked down hard.
"It turns out to be Xiao Wulang from the Jingan Hou family. Tsk, no wonder he is so stupid!"
From a long distance away, Han Jiaojiao finally took advantage of her height to see clearly the face of the "evil young man".
There was disdain in her tone.
The Marquis of Jingan is also a famous martial artist in Beijing.
The first Marquis of Jing'an, like King Anxi, was the adopted son of Taizu.
When he was first ennobled, Marquis Jing'an was also the Duke of the founding county and was the Duke of Jingguo.
However, the Marquis of Jing'an can command the troops, but he cannot control his own belt.
It's just that he is greedy for beauty, but he also dotes on his concubines and destroys his wives.
Even though his beloved concubine was killed, the civil servants in the court caught him.
Taizu was furious and hated the fact that iron cannot be made into steel, so he simply demoted Duke Jingguo to the title of Marquis of Jing'an.
Although the first generation of Marquis of Jing'an was a strange person, he was actually good at fighting and had great military exploits.
His children and grandchildren did not inherit his advantages, but instead learned all his shortcomings.
By this generation, the Marquis of Jing'an was already in ruins with no title.
There were more than a dozen legitimate sons and concubines in the courtyard, but none of them was promising.
If this development continues, the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion will be completely destroyed in less than ten years!
Marquis Jing'an realized the crisis, but instead of urging his children to study and practice martial arts, he wanted to rely on his daughter to find a way out.
Marquis Jing'an was very stupid and naive: If his daughter became the empress, he could also be the Duke of Chengen.
Han Jiaojiao: ...I am speechless!
Gu Qingcheng:... Sure enough, the whole family is stupid.
Fortunately, the boss rejected Jingan Hou's temptation and did not have anything to do with this family.
While the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were complaining about each other, the drama two blocks away had reached the stage where they were throwing money at people.
"Auntie, do you think there will be people who 'see rough roads'?"
"No one should be so stupid."
Gu Qingcheng blinked his big innocent eyes, but said mean words.
This girl is obviously fishing just to be fooled by "evil young men" like Kogoro from the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion.
Regardless of the appearance of resistance, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.
If someone jumped out to "act chivalrously and righteously" at this time, wouldn't it ruin the girl's good deeds?
"Not necessarily! There are always some self-righteous fools in the world!"
Han Jiaojiao smiled and shook her head.
As soon as he finished speaking, a little girl who looked very lively rushed forward and grabbed Kogoro by the collar.
Gu Qingcheng & Han Jiaojiao:......
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other, and they both saw worry in each other's eyes——
It can't be such a coincidence.
This little girl should not be the second daughter of the Pei family.
That "Qiang Qiang" in Zhao Qingsong's mouth.
"Pei, you bitch, you're meddling in other people's business again!"
Kogoro's roar almost broke through the sky.
Two streets apart, Gu Qingcheng and Han Jiaojiao both faintly heard the word "Pei".
Han Jiaojiao swallowed her saliva and said dryly, "Auntie, this little girl is actually quite nice, kind and chivalrous!"
Gu Qingcheng also said coquettishly, "Perhaps she is too naive and does not know the methods of the market."
PS: Hehe, the third update will still be a little late. (.＿.) I’m sorry~
