be a concubine
"Normally, she blames me for doting on her too much. Look at the girls in other families. Which one is not a matchmaker ordered by her parents? She is so bold that she dares to escape from marriage. If it affects Cheng'er's career, let's see how I deal with her."
"Isn't it just to , and being a concubine is not a popular and popular one. If she lives up to her ambitions, gets the eldest son's favor, and gives birth to a son and a half, wouldn't the position of the side wife be within her reach? By then, the adult will also be born.
He can be regarded as the brother-in-law of the Prime Minister’s Mansion.”
······
Xie Nan, who was standing at the door, looked extremely pale.
"Go in, I'll be waiting for you at the door. Don't worry, they can't take you away." An Ning promised again.
Xie Nan walked in dejectedly.
Wang jumped down from her seat the moment she saw Xie Nan, "You damn girl, are you really in the General's Mansion? Does Xie Mansion give you food or drink? Oops, what happened to me?
What a shame for giving birth to a daughter like you, who dared to do things like escape from marriage, what would happen if the Prime Minister's Mansion found out, have you ever thought about your brother?"
"Mom, have you ever thought about me?" Xie Nan roared with red eyes, "Do you know what a concubine is? Look at those aunts in dad's backyard, any one of them has been tortured by you in an extremely miserable way.
Human rights. A concubine is just a slave and a plaything of the master! After all, I am also the daughter of the censor Zhongcheng. Aren’t you afraid of making fun of me when you send me to be someone else’s concubine?”
Mrs. Wang suddenly looked away from Xie Nan with a guilty conscience, "Then...how can the concubines in the Prime Minister's Mansion be the same as the concubines in other mansions?"
"Don't you think it's funny to say this? Except for the concubine of the Holy Emperor, who else in the world is not the same?"
"Presumptuous!" Xie Jing said angrily, "How dare you say this?"
Xie Nan pursed her lips, knowing that she had made a mistake.
"I know that I have wronged you by making you my concubine, but when the eldest son wanted to take you as his concubine, it was you who refused. In the end, this is also your own responsibility. Obviously you would have been fine if you had agreed to the eldest son's concubine at the beginning.
, you must refuse. Now I am only willing to take you as my concubine, and you are making trouble at home, how long are you going to make trouble?"
Xie Nan looked at his usually dignified and elegant father in disbelief, "Father! I don't want to or a concubine. Besides, isn't the concubine also a concubine?"
"And mother, it was you who told me since childhood that I would be a real wife and never take anyone as a concubine. I still remember these words!"
Mrs. Wang pretended to cough, she indeed said this.
"Nannan," her tone softened, "Mother said that you can't in the future and that you want to be a head wife. But what mother wants is for you to marry a rich family and be the head wife so that you can support your younger brother in the future. What if
Just marrying those lowly people as a wife is not as good as marrying into a wealthy family as a concubine."
Xie Jing also reprimanded: "The marriage has been decided. Whether you want to marry or not, it is settled. In three days, the sedan chair from the Prime Minister's Palace will come to carry you into the palace."
Xie Nan took two steps back suddenly, trying desperately to hold back the tears in his eyes.
It seemed like it was the first time she had just met the two people in front of her. Such a face-loving father was willing to be ridiculed by his colleagues for the sake of his son. Her mother, who usually seemed to love her, also tore off her usual disguise at this moment.
"Let's go back with us."
Xie Jing winked, and the servants stepped forward to restrain Xie Nan.
"Who dares?" A figure suddenly appeared outside the door.
An Ning had been standing on one side outside the door, and she could hear everything the Xie family and his wife just said.
The weather outside can't help but make people feel cold.
"Come here." An Ning said to Xie Nan.
Xie Nan came to his senses, ran behind An Ning, gritted his teeth and said, "I won't go back with you."
Even if she dies! If her dignity has been trampled on and her life has been trampled on, what will she have left?
There is only one dead end left!
"Rebellious girl!" the Xie family and his wife said at the same time.
Xie Jing suppressed his ugly expression and said kindly to An Ning: "Miss An, this matter is a family matter of my Xie family. It would be better for Miss An not to get involved."
An Ning's eyebrows were cold and icy, "What if I insist? What can you do?"
"Miss An!" Xie Jing warned, "I wonder if General An's mansion and his wife know that Miss An is acting like this?"
"Ha!" An Ning sneered. She really didn't want to give a good look to the two people in front of her, "Don't worry, Mr. Xie, An Ning's parents are not snakes and rats like Mr. Xie. They can even sell their own daughters.
"
"You!" Xie Jing said angrily, "What do you want?"
Mrs. Wang was also not good at saying: "I'm afraid Miss An can't make the decision in the General's Mansion. We want to see Mrs. An."
An Ning smiled sarcastically.
"Who wants to see me?" came a voice from behind.
I saw a woman wearing a bright purple dress, wearing a fox fur coat, and wearing a pearl on her head passing by.
With that aura that cannot be ignored, who is that if not General An’s wife?
"Mom, you're here."
"Hello, Mrs. An." Xie Jing and his wife said politely with a slight salute.
Xie Nan tugged on An Ning's sleeves uneasily, and An Ning gave her a look to reassure her.
"Mrs. An, I take the liberty of disturbing you today, I..."
Mrs. Lin interrupted the two of them, "Who just said that my daughter can't be the master of the General's Mansion?"
"This..." The two of them were a little embarrassed at this time, "Mrs. An, I think we should discuss the matter with you..."
Mrs. Lin once again interrupted the two of them, "Madam, I have long since stopped caring about the affairs of the General's Mansion. My daughter is the one who makes the decisions inside and outside the General's Mansion. If you have anything to discuss with her, please discuss it with her."
Then she turned around and saw a sneaky figure hiding behind her daughter. She walked over and said, "You seem to be attracted to this child. Since my Ning Ning likes you, you might as well live in the General's Mansion. Anyway, the General's Mansion won't raise you."
I can’t afford this idle person.”
After saying this, she only left her back to everyone.
An Ning's lips curled up slightly, her mother was still her mother.
Xie Jing and his wife were extremely embarrassed at this moment, and their faces were extremely ugly.
It's ridiculous. The dignified General's Mansion wants an unqualified woman to be in charge. Although I've heard that the couple in the General's Mansion doted on their daughter, they didn't know it was so absurd.
Unable to do so, they could only continue to discuss the matter with An Ning.
"Miss An, my daughter has already decided to marry the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. She will marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion in three days. Please don't embarrass Miss An. Besides, the woman who is about to leave the cabinet lives in the General's Mansion, which will have a negative impact on Miss An's reputation.
not good."
An Ning sighed softly, impatience flashed across his brows, "I'm curious, does the Holy One know that you sold your legitimate daughter to the Prime Minister's Palace for the sake of his legitimate son's career?"
Xie Jing's eyes widened slightly, "Miss An, don't talk nonsense."
Mrs. Wang also echoed: "Yes, yes, how can this be for sale?"
"Ah, that doesn't seem to be the case. In that case, with the qualifications of your idiot son-in-law, Xie Cheng will not be promoted to an official position in the future. If he is promoted, it means that the Prime Minister's Office has selfish motives, and I will report it to the Holy One at that time.
