"Mother, isn't it obvious that the attitudes of various aristocratic families have been very strange since we entered the capital, not to mention that the eldest sister will wholeheartedly plan for me?" Zhang Wanying said, "All the rumors in the capital are from our Zhennan Hou Mansion.
No, it’s as if my mother treated her to death. I’ve been in the capital for so long, and no one from aristocratic families has invited me. The same goes for my mother. Doesn’t my mother find it strange?”
Zhang Wanying said.
"Maybe... you're not familiar with him?" said the Marquis of Zhennan.
Zhang Wanying sneered: "Aren't you familiar? Mother has been to Beijing before, right. At that time, she knew at least a few ladies, and they were familiar with each other. We occasionally exchanged letters, but this time, you came to Beijing
If there are other ladies inviting you, the most I can do is give you a gift, and ask you to take care of yourself, saying that the wedding is urgent and they won’t bother you."
Mrs. Zhenguohou's eyebrows were knotted, and she was also depressed when talking about this matter.
The letter said very well that after arriving in Beijing, we would have a good get-together and keep seeing each other for a long time, but now he said that he was taking care of her and had no time to get together. It was strange that she believed it.
"Mom, there are rumors everywhere in the capital that we treated our cousin harshly. They are said with no sense and eyes, as if they have really seen it. They say that my cousin is pitiful, that her father and mother are not sincere to her, and some people secretly take advantage of Marquis Zhengyuan.
Talking about government affairs implies that my father's title came from a bad origin."
The more Zhang Wanying talked about it, the angrier she became. She sent someone to inquire about it and almost exploded when she heard the rumor.
"And...this matter?" Mrs. Zhennanhou was shocked. She knew about Zhengyuanhou. There had been trouble at the border before, and the general was involved. At that time, he was escorted to Beijing after resigning. She also said that this person
He tried to escape, but was executed on the way. Because of Zheng Yuanhou's incident, there was a commotion at the border.
It is said that the second wife of Zhengyuan Hou Mansion was ambitious and vicious, and he deserved to be cut to pieces in the end.
"Mom, this is the news I just got yesterday. I'm surprised that this matter involves us again. If it's just a rumor that has been ignored, does Mother think it will be like this?"
Zhang Wanying asked rhetorically.
There is the matter of Marquis Zhengyuan in the front, and then thinking about the matter of Marquis Zhenguo's Mansion, it makes people feel chills in the chest inexplicably. It seems to be somewhat different but the same purpose.
"It's really nonsense. How can we be involved? What happened to your uncle himself? Do you blame us? Your father almost got into trouble because of your uncle, and now you blame us for taking away your uncle's title?" Madam Zhennan Marquis was also annoyed.
, eyes widened.
"Mom, we know what's the use, but we can't talk about uncle's affairs. Others only think that uncle is a good person, but they never think about uncle..." Zhang Wanying paused here and curled her lips sarcastically, "Loyal minister?
The loyal minister who almost killed the whole family? If the eldest aunt hadn't been worried and scared, how could she have passed away so early."
"Ying'er, be careful what you say." Mrs. Zhennan Hou said hurriedly.
"Don't worry, mother. My daughter knows when to say what to say. I just find it ridiculous. How could those people think that the affairs of Marquis Zhengyuan are similar to those in our house? They think that in the future, we may be like the second room in Marquis Zhengyuan's house.
The matter is revealed to the world."
The more Zhang Wanying thought about it, the angrier she became.
What does the matter of the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion have to do with them? The title of Zhennan Marquis was not earned by the uncle himself. It was the work of the ancestors, but it was branded as the uncle.
"Ying'er, there is no need to mention this matter again." These words touched Mrs. Zhennan Hou, and she scolded with a low face.
"Mother, my daughter just refuses to accept it." Zhang Wanying said angrily.
"If you don't accept it, you have to suppress it." Mrs. Zhennanhou's face turned cold, "Have you forgotten what your father told you?"
Seemingly thinking of some terrible outcome, Zhang Wanying trembled, the anger on her face receded, she turned slightly pale, bit her lip, "Mother, I won't talk nonsense, my uncle is dead, and my aunt is also dead.
My cousin is the only daughter they have left. If anything really happens, just go to her. She gets all the benefits. Is it possible for us to bear the uncle's fault? "
Mrs. Zhennanhou let out a long sigh: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about your marriage first!"
"What's there to say? Anyway, no one likes me. They all think I'm similar to the big girl from Zhengyuan Hou Mansion. Mother, you can tell by seeing which ladies stay away from you one by one. No one will marry your daughter.
Who is willing to take on such a responsibility? Who knows whether our Zhennan Marquis Mansion will be the next Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion? After all, my cousin is now very powerful and my father has to rely on her."
Zhang Wanyin said angrily, her head bowed, feeling aggrieved and sad.
Mrs. Zhennanhou couldn't see her daughter being sad, and she was angry about it. Thinking about it, she was really angry. The ladies she had been friends with in the past didn't show up one by one. Needless to say, it was really what her daughter meant.
Thinking like this, it is even more necessary to leave her daughter in the capital and marry a good one. Zhang Wanyin is unreliable. If the Zhennan Hou Mansion puts everything on her, she may not take care of her own family.
It's better to have a daughter. The daughter was born by herself.
"Ying'er, since this is the case, it is even more important to make friends with Miss Yu San from the Xuanping Marquis Mansion. As long as she says a word to Mrs. Zhou, your marriage will be settled. Your cousin is right about this."
Mrs. Zhennan Hou comforted her daughter and said.
"Mom, it's useless. It only makes people laugh. It makes me laugh that I can't get married. It makes me laugh that my mother went to the hospital because of her illness. It also makes me laugh at my father... and the entire Zhennan Hou Mansion, except for my cousin of course. After all, we treat him so harshly.
Sister, the more people laugh at us, the more disgusting they think we are, and the more people feel wronged by my cousin."
Zhang Wanying shook her head.
"How...how could this happen?" Mrs. Zhennanhou was stunned.
"Mother, I will! Mrs. Zhou is just an ordinary wife, and she is an ordinary wife just now. How many people do you think she knows and how many people do you think she can talk to in front of her? Even for Miss Yu San's sake
After agreeing, I have to look at the people she associates with. After all, she is just an ordinary wife. I heard she came from a small family."
Zhang Wanying said that she had not thought so much before, but with Zhang Wanyin's full efforts to bring her together, she felt that there was something unusual about it, and she broke into a cold sweat when she thought about it!
"There are only so many people she can interact with. If she continues to look after us enthusiastically, all the people who come will be ordinary people. Will mother see her or not?"
"If... it's almost the same, let's see you. After all, we were the ones who spoke before." Mrs. Zhennan Hou said in embarrassment.
The so-called "almost" means that it's almost possible. After all, they were the ones who hinted it first, and the Zhou family had good intentions. If they refused, it would seem that they didn't take other people's good intentions seriously, and even looked down on the Xuanping Marquis Mansion.
Meaning, if people know it, it means giving a face.
Marquis Xuanping is of little use, but his status is there.
"My mother will definitely meet her, even for the sake of the Zhou family. Those people are not as good as those in our house, so even if we meet, it won't happen. If we meet, the news will naturally spread.
When the time comes, will my mother think that others will laugh at us? Will she think that there is something wrong with her daughter that she has to marry into such a family?"
There is a reason for marrying low.
Either the other person's character is particularly good, or the talent of the other person is attracted by her, or of course it may be her appearance. It has to be the same or two things. If she doesn't have both, but she is anxious to see him for marriage, there must be something wrong with the woman herself.
Nanhou Mansion is far away from the border, so if there is anything wrong, it cannot be spread to the capital.
"If someone spreads some bad words about me at this time, my daughter will be really ruined." Zhang Wanying said.
Mrs. Zhennan Hou was startled and almost stood up. She stretched out her hand to support her daughter's shoulders. She was shocked and said anxiously: "Then if we don't meet, we won't meet if we don't have the same status."
"This brings us to Miss Yu's identity again. What Miss Yu said is that Mrs. Zhou is busy with the marriage. Mother, we can't just disappear if we don't want to see her." Zhang Wanying said coldly, with a flash of light in her eyes.
Annoyed, "Mom, my cousin is really as scheming as ever. If my marriage fails, the Zhennan Hou Mansion will have to rely on her."
"What does Wanyin mean? Is she so capable?" Although Mrs. Zhennanhou was angry, she still didn't believe it.
"Mother, didn't you think that it was impossible for my cousin to return to the capital? You see, not only has she returned to the capital happily, but she has even taken over the position of Princess Duan. I heard that before my cousin came to the capital,
The position of Prince Duan's principal concubine belongs to the second girl of the Xuanping Hou Mansion, and Prince Duan personally requested it. Now, she can only be a side concubine."
Zhang Wanying spread her hands and said.
These words made Mrs. Zhennan Hou fall silent for a while. At that time, she really thought that Zhang Wanyin could never have a future. She had high expectations before, but now she was disappointed. How important it was for the Zhennan Hou Mansion to have a princess.
For this reason, my husband frequently went to the capital to deliver things.
Let alone a niece, even a biological daughter is nothing more than that.
First she was a princess, then a princess, and then she ascended the throne and gave birth to the next prince. It was so important to the Zhennan Marquis Mansion, but the reason for this was still because of her husband. Mrs. Zhennan Marquis had nothing to say.
Seeing my husband shouting drunkenly, I felt even more panicked.
But in the end, my niece who I thought was useless became useful again, and she got such a great blessing. Is it really just luck?
"You said...there are rumors that all the bad things about us have something to do with Wanyin?" Mrs. Zhennan Hou said something interesting.
"Mother, I don't know, but it may be related to my cousin, at least half of the possibility. Mother, my cousin was not simple before, and it is even more difficult now. This is the capital, and neither you nor I are familiar with it.
But my cousin is familiar with it, but even if she is familiar with it, she has never taken you to visit any lady, and no lady has even visited you for her sake."
Zhang Wanying raised her eyebrows and said: "Mother, who do you think my father will like more if I stay in Beijing and marry the prince?"
"Of course it's you, you are our biological daughter." Mrs. Zhennan Hou said without hesitation.
Zhang Wanying curled her lips: "Mother, my cousin must also know, so she will not allow me to stay in the capital, even if I am not a prince, because I am afraid that when I stand in line in the future, my father will value the person I marry more. If the person I marry is
The prince who takes sides is more outstanding. If my cousin is not favored and has not given birth to an heir, it is hard to predict what my father will do."
"Which family are you attracted to?" Mrs. Zhennan Hou understood, she stretched out her hand to cover her chest and lowered her voice a bit.
