After listening, the Queen Mother nodded slightly.
When there are many people, there are many things to do.
The harem has its troubles, but the daughters-in-law of the prince's family also have their troubles.
She has not experienced those herself, but has heard of many.
"To put it bluntly, when the Ai family first engaged Ayun, what they valued was sincerity, stability, and simplicity."
Lin Yu's mother passed away early, but her stepmother was famously kind.
Mr. Duan treats his stepson very seriously, and the Lin brothers are also kind and harmonious.
At that time, the youngest daughter of the Lin family had not yet left the palace, and the Empress Dowager had seen her several times. She was also pretty, gentle and generous.
Education is something that is engraved in your bones and flows through your behavior.
In such a family, even if there are mother-in-law and uncles and aunts, it will not make it difficult for the new daughter-in-law to do things or be a good person.
"The Ai family has chosen so well. After Ayun married, the whole family was really harmonious and the husband and wife were united." The Empress Dowager sighed.
The only pity is that Shen Yun encountered the fire at Dingguo Temple.
Seeing that she was thinking of her niece who died young, Concubine Wen knew that she was feeling sad, so she comforted her and said: "It's rare for you to worry about the marriage of a girl's family. Let me count, you have only taken care of a few of them over the years.
In the early years, it was Ayun and Derong. A few years ago, you married Princess Changle.
It's really a pity for Ayun, but you see, Princess Derong and the Prince Consort have been like enemies over the years. They don't need anyone to worry about them, but they have actually added a lot of fun to you.
Chang Le is married far away, so you don’t always see her, but she is doing well in her husband’s family.
Either you don't worry about it, all you have to worry about is a good marriage where the two of you are harmonious and have the same mind.
The princess of our West Side Hall will definitely be good too."
These words fell into the heart of the Queen Mother.
At least, her vision for marriage is not bad.
With her eyebrows stretched, she saw from the corner of her eye the hand stove that Concubine Wen had put aside. The Empress Dowager burst into laughter and told Concubine what she had just told her father-in-law.
"One handed it over directly, and the other took it directly," the Empress Dowager smiled and shook her head, "This is really..."
Concubine Wen listened and smiled from ear to ear.
"Otherwise, why would you say that life is all about fate?" She laughed and said, "I am old too, and I can't help but enjoy hearing the emotions of these children. I really love hearing it."
Two old ladies, neither one is younger than the other.
Hearing what the concubine said, the empress dowager also laughed.
After laughing, Concubine Wen thought for a moment and said: "I guess it is indeed more appropriate to be the auxiliary to the Duke.
What are you thinking about here, pearls and jade, but let me tell you, the real pearls and jade are sincerity.
My uncle is good-looking, well-educated, well-educated, and of good character. I can’t find anything bad about him.
With such a father, how could an ordinary man fall in the eyes of the princess? As soon as he appeared on the scene, he was outshone by his uncle."
The Empress Dowager deeply agrees.
If Lin Yun wasn't good at everything, how could she let Ayun marry him?
Concubine Wen said again: "The princess is young, and sometimes she has a childish temper with you, but she has a clear mind and has many ideas.
Young masters of the same age may not have this kind of character. It’s not that they are bad, but they are not yet determined.
She is still a few years older, more calm and down-to-earth, and can talk to the princess on the same page.
There are so many Dukes and Dukes in their houses, and those who are a few years older have either already been engaged, or have been delayed due to various reasons..."
Following Concubine Wen's words, the Empress Dowager quickly went through the palaces of the Dukes and Princes in the capital in her mind.
When the Holy Emperor first proposed Yun Yan's marriage to her, she had already chosen it once.
Now I've swiped through it again, and of course I haven't picked anything that I like.
Looking left and right, Xu Jian is the only one who is Miao Miao.
Concubine Wen took a sip of tea and said: "In the final analysis, after all, it's hard to buy the princess satisfied with money. The princess just now has a good impression of the Duke of Fu, and she also selected a few people for her to compare.
Comparison, this is inappropriate."
The Empress Dowager quite agrees.
Under what circumstances is comparison necessary?
The person I have a good impression of really can't support the wall. It's not good for the elders to speak too bluntly. I'm afraid it will make the girl's family rebellious, so I will single out the good ones and let her compare.
Is Xu Jian mud now? Definitely not.
Is it possible to choose someone better than Xu Jian? Definitely not.
Then why is she still messing around here?
"The Ai family asked you to convince me," the Empress Dowager sighed, "You are really good at being a matchmaker!"
Concubine Wen smiled and accepted the joke, and said: "I really want to say that the elders already know what they are doing. They should arrange more opportunities for the princess and the auxiliary prince to get to know each other better.
But you are anxious, fearing that there are still some short-sighted people plotting against the princess, and it may not take long.
Then I can only say good things to Duke Fu.
The old father-in-law had a bad temper and spoke irritably, but his conduct was very upright. After his first wife passed away, he refused to remarry until he died of illness.
On this point, Duke Fu followed him.
At this age, there are so many things that can’t be controlled by one’s thoughts.
He has no elders to take care of him. He is raised in the house and raised outside. As long as he doesn't cause trouble when the white knife comes in and the red knife comes out, the censor will really scold his head, that is, he will be fined and grounded.
But in the past two years, there have been no such rumors, right?"
As soon as she heard "I can't control myself", the Queen Mother couldn't help but raise her hand to press her eyebrows.
Half a year ago, one of the two families came to Cining Palace to talk about the divorce between the third son of Duke Xu and Sister Yun Yan.
What happened was such a mess!
Even if you are as well-informed as she is, you would want to pinch your nose.
"There are no men who are inexperienced, but it is very important to be able to control themselves and know what to do and what not to do," said Concubine Wen. "The Duke Fu seems to be very sensible."
"Okay, I know you are facing Xu Jian, but I didn't expect you to be like this!" The Queen Mother laughed and said to Grandma Wang, "Go and ask Yun Yan to come over. It's time to beat the horse. The Ai family hasn't been beaten for a while.
It's very itchy."
Soon, Lin Yunyan came from the side hall and greeted Princess Wen with a smile.
Judging from the expression on the Empress Dowager's face, she must have had a very satisfactory conversation with Concubine Wen.
A few people sat down at the table and made a circle.
Concubine Wen suddenly said: "The leggings that the princess gave me were so comfortable, they warmed my legs directly to my heart. I heard that Duke Fu also mentioned it to the princess before? Is the princess kind enough to give it to him?" p>
Lin Yunyan was touching the cards when she heard the words and raised her head, blinking at Concubine Wen.
The concubine will not ask such questions for no reason.
This is obviously a question for the Empress Dowager.
With her lips curled up, Lin Yunyan snorted softly and said in a sweet voice: "She's so beautiful! Wait until I'm happy."
Concubine Wen burst into laughter and secretly winked at the Empress Dowager: Look! The little girl is so embarrassed!
The Empress Dowager also smiled and felt at ease.
Lin Yunyan only said this sentence and said nothing else. She lowered her head and picked a card to play.
"The Ai family is crazy."
The empress dowager easily pushed the card down.
Seeing Lin Yunyan handing her the chips and rushing to shuffle the cards, the Empress Dowager secretly nodded.
The children were so embarrassed that they started shooting randomly.
