Chapter 1011 Taking Concubines Song Yinzhang
Zhao Pan'er has been having a very uncomfortable life recently. She has had pregnancy reactions since she was more than two months pregnant, and they are still of a particularly serious type.
Now she can vomit more than ten times a day, and there are red spots on her face and neck, all of which are bloodshot caused by congestion. Zhao Pan'er is now afraid to go out of the yard.
The most serious thing is that she has difficulty eating now and vomits after eating. She often needs to drink medicinal foods to relieve her pain.
Zhou Chen is also a man who has been married many times, and there are many women who have given birth to children for him. However, during pregnancy, there are really very few cases as serious as Zhao Paner's.
After two months of this, the pregnant woman's reaction got better. However, as the months went by, Zhao Pan'er's body bones became very heavy again, making it difficult to move.
"Master Hou, I'm sorry that you have been tired during this period of time."
Zhao Pan'er leaned against Zhou Chen with a look of guilt on her face. During this period, because she was very reactive, Zhou Chen always needed to take care of her at night. She said that she would sleep separately from Zhou Chen, and let her maid and grandma take care of her, and let Zhou Chen take care of her.
Chen wanted to sleep more peacefully, but Zhou Chen did not agree.
Zhou Chen consoled him: "Why are you talking about this? We are husband and wife, and we are of the same mind. This is what I should do."
After all, he is still a person who grew up in modern times, and his thoughts are very different from this era.
In this kind of feudal dynasty, in a family, men are the gods. Women have always served men. It is basically impossible to see men serving women. Even if they do, they are rare.
It is even rarer for a high-ranking official like Zhou Chen, a hereditary marquis, to be able to take care of a woman, so Zhao Pan'er was very grateful, and her love and attachment to Zhou Chen was even greater.
"Master Hou, I have not been able to serve you these days, so you have been wronged."
"Ahem, what are you talking about? Is this the kind of person I am in your mind?"
Zhou Chen was dumbfounded by what Zhao Pan'er said. Zhao Pan'er's pregnancy was already very uncomfortable, so how could he torment Zhao Pan'er again for his own sake.
Zhao Pan'er hugged Zhou Chen and was silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "Master Hou, why don't you take a concubine?"
"ah?"
Zhou Chen looked at Zhao Pan'er in confusion: "No, I didn't hear what you said clearly. Say it again?"
Zhao Pan'er looked troubled, but she still spoke out.
"Master Marquis, I won't be able to serve you for a long time. You need someone to serve you. I don't object to you going to Jiaofangsi, but it's not a good thing to go there too much, so I think it's time to take a concubine for you."
"Pan'er, what are you thinking in your head? You're still pregnant. I'm going to take a concubine. What's going on? If it doesn't work, don't say anything."
Zhou Chen quickly stopped Zhao Pan'er. He was not opposed to taking concubines. After all, there were a few men who could resist taking concubines, and it was the eldest lady who took the initiative.
He is not that noble and does not agree with taking concubines, just because he does not want to do so at this time, when pregnant women are most likely to have emotional problems.
Although Zhao Pan'er is smart, sensible and considerate, Zhou Chen still wants her to give birth to the child safely without any trouble along the way.
Besides, it’s not like he really didn’t do anything during this period. What he couldn’t get from Zhao Paner during this period, he got double from Zhang Haohao. In some aspects, Zhang Haohao is better than Zhao Paner.
Open a lot.
Seeing that Zhou Chen wouldn't let her continue, Zhao Pan'er pursed her lips and said no more, but her eyes remained firm.
The next day, Song Yinzhang brought his maid Yin Ping to the Marquis Zhongyong's Mansion. She often came to the Marquis' Mansion, so the concierge was already familiar with her and let her in without even greeting her.
"Sister Pan'er, you made people rush to call me over. What happened? Are you feeling well?"
As soon as Song Yinzhang saw Zhao Pan'er, he nervously went over to observe and found that Zhao Pan'er was not seriously injured, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Pan'er grabbed Song Yinzhang's hand and asked her to sit next to him.
"What can I do? I just miss you a little, and I happened to see you for something else."
Song Yinzhang also said with a smile: "Sister Pan'er, I miss you too, but the most important thing for you now is to protect your body. You must not walk around. If you want to eat something, just ask Sister Sanniang to come over and cook it."
.”
Both she and Sun Sanniang knew that Zhao Pan'er was favored by Zhou Chen, but family background was a stain that could not be removed. Therefore, for Zhao Pan'er, if she could give birth to Zhou Chen's eldest son, then the mother would be more valuable than the son. Then she would be in the Hou family.
The position of the government will become unbreakable.
Therefore, like Zhao Pan'er, they also care very much about the child in her belly and pray for Zhao Pan'er every day.
"Isn't Sanniang busy recently? How is Yong'an Building doing now?"
She hadn't been out for a long time, so her understanding of Yong'an Building was based on Song Yinzhang's and others' descriptions.
"It's good. Sister Sanniang has handed over her skills to the cooks in the restaurant. Although their cooking is not as good as Sister Sanniang, it is still enough."
"And you?"
"I'm pretty good too. I teach people how to play the pipa every day and occasionally play for others. I'm not tired at all."
At this time, all the servants in the room were kicked out by Zhao Pan'er. Apart from her, there were only Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping's master and servant.
"Introduction."
"What's wrong, Sister Pan'er?"
Song Yinzhang was very puzzled when she saw Zhao Pan'er's hesitant look. After staying in Tokyo for almost two years, her understanding of the world has improved a lot, and she could tell that Zhao Pan'er had something to say.
Zhao Pan'er sighed softly. Although he had made a decision in his heart, it was still not easy to say it out loud.
"Yinzhang, do you like Mr. Hou?"
"ah?"
Song Yinzhang couldn't control it and exclaimed. Then she hurriedly explained in a panic: "Sister Pan'er, don't get me wrong. I, I didn't. I used to just admire Lord Hou, but I know this is impossible.
, so I stopped thinking about it a long time ago, Sister Pan'er, I'm sorry, I..."
Yin Ping also had a surprised look on her face. Of course she knew her master's thoughts, and she believed others could also see it. However, Zhao Pan'er's sudden suggestion at this time still shocked her.
Zhao Pan'er grabbed Song Yinzhang's little hand that had nowhere to rest, and said comfortingly: "I know, I know, Yinzhang, don't be nervous, I don't mean to blame you."
Song Yinzhang's heart was beating nervously, and he glanced at Zhao Pan'er guiltily and worriedly. Seeing that Zhao Pan'er's face was calm, as if he really didn't mean to blame her, he became even more confused.
"Sister Pan'er, it's my fault, but don't worry, I'm gone a long time ago..."
"Listen to me first."
Zhao Paner interrupted Song Yinzhang and looked at her seriously.
"I'm not talking about this to blame you, but I want to ask you what you think. If you were allowed to enter the Marquis's mansion and be the Marquis's concubine, would you be willing?"
As soon as they finished speaking, Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping were both stunned and looked at Zhao Pan'er in disbelief. Song Yinzhang's head even shut down.
"Yin Zhang, Yin Zhang..."
Song Yinzhang, whose brain was down, was awakened by Zhao Pan'er. Her body trembled and she asked in shock: "Sister Pan'er, were you, were you kidding me just now?"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Pan'er shook his head and said: "I'm not joking. I'm asking you very seriously. If you still like the Marquis and are even willing to enter the Marquis's house as a concubine, I can help you."
Song Yinzhang stammered: "No, no, sister Pan'er, you, are you telling the truth?"
She really couldn't believe it. Could she really be a concubine for the Marquis?
If she could, let alone being a concubine, she would be willing to be Zhou Chen's maid.
Zhao Pan'er is her sister. In the past, she just fantasized about it and didn't dare to show it at all, but today it was Zhao Pan'er who took the initiative, which made her mood extremely complicated.
"real."
Zhao Pan'er nodded: "I have been pregnant for several months and cannot serve the Marquis, but the Marquis treats me very well. Even if I asked him to take a concubine, he did not agree."
Song Yinzhang was even more surprised and confused. Sister Pan'er actually took the initiative to take a concubine for Mr. Hou. Sister Pan'er loved Mr. Hou so much, how could she have such an idea?
Zhao Pan'er seemed to have guessed Song Yinzhang's thoughts.
"Who has a man with the current status of the Marquis who doesn't have many wives and concubines? The Marquis is good to me, but I can't be arrogant because of his favor. He is the only one in the Zhongyong Hou family in the Marquis's generation, so I must
Think more about the Marquis."
This was said not only to Song Yinzhang, but also to himself.
In the past year as the mistress of the Hou Mansion, she had heard too many rumors and discussions, although she felt that as long as she and Mr. Hou lived well, she didn't have to worry about what other people thought.
But now Zhou Chen is a second-grade official, and she is also a third-grade imperial wife. They represent the face of the Hou Mansion, so she often needs to consider more to maintain the dignity and dignity of the Hou Mansion.
Moreover, a qualified mistress will let the male heirs pass on more.
"However, although I am willing to take a concubine for the Marquis, I don't want the Marquis to find a restless woman. If I really want to take a concubine, I would like that person to be you."
"Yinzhang, I know it's unfair to ask you to be my concubine. If you don't want to, I won't force you. Everything is based on your own wishes."
She wanted Zhou Chen to take a concubine to Song Yinzhang. In addition to what she just said, she also had some thoughts of her own. She wanted to manage the Hou Mansion for Zhou Chen, so she didn't want to cause the problem of unrest in the back house. If Zhou Chenna's concubine was...
