Countless good men and women come here to burn incense and worship Buddha.
The Seventeenth Mother came to Daxiangguo Temple to pray because her biological mother was ill.
After burning incense, Shi Qi Niang and the female envoy took a stroll in the temple.
It was August at this time.
The weather is hot, so many women wear thin shirts when they go to Daxiangguo Temple. When walking in the courtyard, the clothes on their bodies are of different colors, like a hundred flowers blooming, colorful and colorful.
The Seventeenth Mother saw a few pieces of embroidered cloth woven by the temple maiden, and went to rest in the temple corridor.
During the break, the maid chatted with the Seventeenth Niang, such as, this year's transactions in the Grand Prime Minister's Temple were not as good as before, and she also wondered where something new had happened.
The Seventeenth Mother listened with a smile and wiped the sweat from her neck with a kerchief.
At this time, I saw a woman walking from the other end of the temple corridor. As she walked, she had a domineering air. You didn't need to look carefully to know that she was a lady from a wealthy family.
The maid of the Seventeenth Mother did not have a good impression of the rich lady, so she turned away and said, "I hope she doesn't see us, otherwise we will have to talk to the girl again. Girl, let's pretend not to see her."
The Seventeenth Mother heard this and said: "Fool, since people are coming, how can we avoid this?"
After speaking, Seventeenth Mother stood up, took the initiative to greet the other party and saluted, "It's such a coincidence that I met a rich sister."
When the rich lady saw that it was Seventeenth Mother, she was also surprised and said, "I finished burning incense and came here to hang out, but unexpectedly I saw my sister."
"Now that I'm here, sister can talk to me."
The maid looked unhappy.
Seventeenth Mother smiled and said: "Just in time, I also want to talk to my sister."
The two of them immediately sat down on the benches in the temple corridor. The rich lady glanced at Shiqi Niang and asked, "Is my sister here to seek admission to the third class of military training for Mr. Zhang?"
The Seventeenth Mother smiled and said, "I heard what my sister said. Could it be that my sister is here to beg the Wang family to be admitted to the Monarchy College?"
The rich lady sneered and said, "What does it have to do with me whether he gets married or not?"
Seventeenth Mother said: "Isn't my sister already engaged to him?"
The rich lady said bitterly: "Didn't you hear that he corrupted a good girl before? The rich family and I have become a laughing stock among the women of Bianjing."
"Hearsays may not be true." Seventeenth Mother comforted her.
"It's just hearsay. I heard from my cousin that he had a lover before. I heard that she was a famous prostitute from his hometown. She helped him finance the exam in Beijing and entertained people. This Wang Kui spent a lot of money in Bianjing.
It all depends on this person, but he has never mentioned this woman in front of my family."
The Seventeenth Mother was surprised and said: "Is this happening?"
The rich lady said: "Exactly, after he got the sixth Jinshi, this woman went crazy and searched for him all over Bianjing City, but he kept him in the dark, deceived and hid. In the end, this woman
It was my brother who found the girl. She was completely delirious. When she woke up, she cried and called Wang Lang, Wang Lang. We placed her at home, and her cousin asked her in person. She said that Wang Kui had promised to become a Jinshi.
Then marry her."
At this moment, the Seventeenth Mother heard this and said angrily: "How can there be such a heartless person in the world?"
The rich lady said bitterly: "My brother originally agreed with Wang Kui that he was not allowed to have concubines in the future, and he was not allowed to have outside wives. But he and this woman are so deeply in love, if he comes to beg me to take this woman in, I may not refuse.
I will still marry him in the future."
"But my cousin asked him many times and told him that he still denied having such a woman. He even said that the expenses for studying in Bianjing were funded by his classmates, and repeatedly promised not to take concubines or have extramarital affairs after marriage. It is so cold and unreasonable.
How dare I marry him?"
The Seventeenth Mother sighed: "Sister, it's better not to get married like this."
The rich lady cried and said: "My family knows about this, and I wanted to inform him about breaking off the engagement, but according to my uncle's wishes, I will not mention it until Wang Kui completes the examination. No matter what, my rich family will not mention it."
I owe him a lot. Even if he enters the third class of the Bachelor of Science, I will not marry him."
The Seventeenth Mother admired her and said: "Sister, you are very ambitious. Women who are talented in marrying are the second best, and Germany is the first. If he can treat this brothel girl like this, there is no guarantee that he will not treat you like this in the future."
The rich lady wiped away her tears and sneered: "Sister, don't pretend to pity me, when in fact you are laughing at me in your heart."
The seventeenth mother said: "Why do you say this, sister? Why does your sister seem to want people to pity you?"
The rich lady nodded and said: "I don't need anyone to pity me. They say that the husband is the wife's guide, and a woman should not point fingers at her husband. But if I marry a man like Wang Kui, I will really obey him in the future. I will blame myself in my heart."
Are you being unkind to others?"
Seventeenth Niang said: "You are the grand-niece of Mr. Zhaowen, so you are confident. Ordinary people would have to marry a chicken and follow the chicken, and marry a dog and follow the dog."
The rich lady said: "My sister is right, so looking after people is the most important thing."
"Sister, if the husband of the Zhang family is like Wang Kui, what should you do?" asked the rich lady.
The Seventeenth Mother was stunned for a moment, and then said: "There is nothing I can do. My family background can help him take a further step in his official career, but there is no guarantee that he will not mess around with women when he becomes successful in the future."
"Even if he is afraid of me, there is no guarantee that he will be under my eyes for the rest of his life. I can't help if my beauty declines in the future or if he really meets a confidante. If he is really like this, I only hope he understands what is important and what is secondary.
, so I can give it a try and see if I can bear it."
Seventeenth Mother, a rich lady looked at the women passing by on the corridor, many of them were young and beautiful.
Then Seventeenth Mother couldn't help but laugh.
The rich lady asked: "Why is my sister laughing?"
The Seventeenth Lady shook her head and said: "I think I probably can't bear it either. My mother said that I was born with a temper that cannot tolerate sand in my eyes."
When the rich lady heard this, she couldn't help but laugh and said: "Sister, if you don't meet your lover, you will only suffer yourself."
The Seventeenth Lady said: "Yes, but when the broken mirror is reunited, there is an extra gap. That gap will always be in the eyes, but the mirror can still be used."
Hearing this, the wife of the rich family nodded and said: "My rich family picked Wang Kui in the first place because he was poor and came from a poor family, so he did not have the habits of an official family. Who knew that he was just a climber? Now it seems that some people really can't
A meteoric rise."
"Sister, you, the Wu family, must have taken this into account when you selected the husband of the Zhang family. But when you marry into a poor family, even if you don't have all kinds of troubles, you still have all kinds of hardships."
The Seventeenth Mother said: "It doesn't matter if you work hard. You can show kindness, but you can't win over people's hearts with kindness. Although I won't be beautiful in the future, I can help him share his worries and be a close friend. I can help him deal with his internal affairs, and I can respect my brother and sister-in-law and take care of them."
Family members, as long as they are smart, they will know what to do."
The rich lady smiled and said, "Now Mr. Zhang seems to be a good man, but in the future... I hope my sister will live a harmonious life."
"Sister, it's the same. If you look for a loved one again, that's who you will be. There's no end of the world... that's who you'll love."
After saying that, Shi Qi Niang and the rich lady walked arm in arm together.
The two female envoys looked at the two women who were still a little tense just now, but now they were as close as sisters. They didn't know what to say, and they were suddenly surprised.
