Chapter 305 It’s hard to suppress the dissatisfaction in my heart
The next day, Li Cheng went out with Lin Zhixiu again, this time to Uncle An's house.
An Ning prepared it for two days, and it was Lin Zhixiu's favorite food.
Early in the morning, I washed myself and stretched my neck to wait.
Ren Baihui has not yet given birth and is in her bedroom.
There is a small bed next to her big bed, and An Dalang will be here during the day.
Ren Baihui took care of it personally.
At night, the wet nurse takes her to bed.
Ren Baihui recovered very well, and her plump face was full of maternal glory.
She watched An Ning go in and out again and again! She smiled and shook her head, "Don't worry! You don't know what His Highness Cheng Wang is like? He must be treating our Xiu'er well!"
An Ning said, "When this woman gets married, it's like being born again. Although I know that His Highness will be good to her, as an uncle, I can't let it go! Lin family, you know more or less...
Alas, the pain for her is very limited."
Ren Baihui teased him, "It's enough if Lord An supports her!"
An Ning was embarrassed, "Oh, how can I support her? Most of the time, she takes advantage of her!"
Ren Baihui looked at her son, "When our brother grows up, he will treat his sister well!"
An Ning came over to see her son, and An Dalang was sleeping soundly.
Delicate skin, rosy fat face, and the smell of milk all over her body...
Sometimes, An Ning feels that all the good things now are so unreal...
Just as he was talking, someone came to the door and said, "Mrs. Li is here with General Li!"
An Ning hurriedly greeted her, "Li Feng! Mrs. Li!"
Li Feng: "Uncle An!"
An Ning asked, "Mrs. Li has been very busy lately, hasn't she?!"
Mrs. Li said, "I've been busy for a while, but I'm finally done! After all, the Wu family is the old man of the pavilion. They are very generous. They sent two groups of people. They were not picky at all, but they helped a lot. The old woman was so confused."
Sorry! Haha! Now, I’m just looking forward to Miss Wu coming in!”
There were some words that she did not elaborate on.
The Wu family is really nice, they are not picky, they take the initiative to reduce the complicated procedures, and even send people to help.
But the Zhang family... are so hypocritical!
He knew clearly that it was the girl from the Wu family who came in first, and that he had to be busy with the Wu family's affairs anyway, but he sent people to ask questions from time to time, asking for this and that, and not finding faults. It was not a good attitude to make a fuss.
Sometimes, Mrs. Zhang even brought Zhang Wenzhen here in person, which was simply...
Although Mrs. Li is strong, she can endure it. Her son has no foundation but is so popular. I don’t know how many people are waiting to find fault!
Don't be too tough and deal with it with a smile every time.
An Ning was entrusted to take back the family's property, and the procedures have not been fully completed until now.
An Ning suddenly got an official position, so he must be busy with official duties. The An family's original property needs to be looked after by someone suitable, and I'm afraid the Li family will no longer be taken care of.
Li Feng is a rough and simple man and does not know how to take care of family property.
As for Mrs. Li herself, she didn't know a lot of words, so she felt dizzy and almost sick as soon as she took a look at the property, let alone taking it over.
Alas, I can only hope that Wu Jingxiang can come in and share some of the work.
While An Ning talked to Li Feng, Mrs. Li washed her hands and went to see An Dalang in Ren Baihui's room.
"Where is Dalang sleeping?" she asked softly.
Ren Baihui smiled and said, "I woke up for a while, and now I'm asleep again."
When Mrs. Li saw An Dalang's chubby face, she was really in love with him!
No wonder, at this time next year, I will have a grandson in my arms! How great would that be?
In the midst of the excitement, Li Cheng and Lin Zhixiu came back.
An Ning saw Lin Zhixiu's beautiful face at a glance, dazzling with brilliance, well...it seemed like she was living a good life!
He felt more at ease.
After Lin Zhixiu greeted her uncle and An Ning, she quickly went to see her little cousin.
Ren Baihui was relieved to see that Lin Zhixiu was still the same as before.
Mrs. Li looked at Lin Zhixiu, "Oh my god! Xiu'er, your clothes and jewelry are so beautiful!"
Lin Zhixiu said proudly, "The one I wore yesterday looked better! This one today is not luxurious. Why are you showing off when you come to your uncle's house?"
Ren Baihui and Mrs. Li both laughed.
She came close to the small bed and shouted softly, "Dang Ling is asleep?! My sister is here!"
An Dalang heard the movement and tried to open his eyes to take a look...
Lin Zhixiu said, "Hey, Dalang is awake? Dalang, do you miss your sister?"
An Dalang closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
Lin Zhixiu "...Why did he fall asleep again?"
Mrs. Li said, "My brother is so good. He doesn't cry when he is disturbed! Your brother Li was very angry when he was young. He would howl a few times if he was disturbed while sleeping."
Lin Zhixiu looked at An Dalang softly: "Da Lang, be good! When you can leave, my sister will take you to play!"
Looking at the huge face...
Lin Zhixiu sighed, "He... looks so strong!"
Ren Baihui couldn't stop laughing, "It's so strong! Such a big face! My mother said that he looks like my uncle! Oh, if only he looked like Xiu'er."
Lin Zhixiu said, "What's good about a boy who looks like me? Making trouble! This is good, strong and smart!"
Mrs. Li smiled from ear to ear.
Ren Baihui said, "Haha, your uncle said the same thing! He is like my uncle, he will also be a Jinshi in the future!" Her uncle is very good at studying!
Lin Zhixiu looked at Yuan Lang and opened his eyes again, and teased him by saying, "Da Lang understands! We Da Lang will be the number one scholar in the future!"
In the front, Li Cheng, An Ning, and Li Feng were drinking tea and talking.
After Wu Dong finished his work, he came directly to An's house. As soon as he met An Ning, he kept talking about shipping.
As of today, the news has basically spread.
Wu Dong sighed, "Several friends thanked me for persuading them at the critical moment... Even so, the loss was not small! I heard that a person I knew committed suicide directly after knowing Xin'er... Just now
I asked someone to send some money over, oh!"
An Ning said, "I heard that the second prince of Prince Qing's Mansion secretly followed suit. I just got the message and Prince Qing gave him a good beating. The princess was not happy and even quarreled with the prince!"
Wu Dong said, "We really shouldn't do anything like this easily in the future! It's really scary!"
An Ning said, "Yeah, let's just be down-to-earth. The life is so good, why are we working so hard? After my Axiu and the prince have a baby, you should also be busy with the children. There is no shortage of money, don't work so hard.
It’s adventurous again!”
Wu Dong nodded, "That's what you said!"
Li Feng said, "Uncle Dong, I'm afraid I have to ask you for help with my family's property. Uncle An has taken office and has a lot of things to do. I don't know anything about it myself."
Wu Dong said, "Okay! If you say so, I will send someone to follow up first. If you ask me, the family property does not need to be too complicated to manage. Buy some good properties and earn income on time. That's it. You still have to do it.
Mainly for official business!”
Li Feng nodded, "Uncle Dong said yes!"
The family was busy eating, drinking, and chatting happily.
Li Cheng wanted to take Lin Zhixiu home, and several people stood at the gate. Li Cheng felt happy, patted Li Feng on the shoulder, and said something verbose.
An Ning and Wu Dong bit each other's ears, laughing and not knowing what to say.
Lin Zhixiu talked to Mrs. Li. In a few days, Wu Jingxiang will be adding makeup. "If you have any questions, do you want Xiu'er to take Miss Wu?"
Mrs. Li said, "I'm very busy right now. I just hope Miss Wu can come in quickly and help me!"
Lin Zhixiu smiled bitterly, it would be good if she didn't cause any trouble.
well!
Then, Li Cheng gently took her hand, reached the carriage, and helped her get into the carriage himself.
An Ning and the others stood at the door and watched them go.
At the corner of the street, there was still the Wu Ni car parked.
The people in the little carriage waited for Li Cheng and others to go far away, and then whispered to the driver, "Let's go!"
The car didn't stop all the way and went directly to the second gate of Princess Jingping's mansion. Two girls got out of the car and turned around to help a woman...
Wearing a cloak and a veil, she went straight into her yard, and the girl helped her remove the veil and take off the cloak.
This is a woman with a delicate appearance and aloof temperament, but her face is extremely ugly.
This person is none other than King Cheng's unmarried concubine and Princess Qing.
She sat down tiredly and let the girls quietly bring tea and water.
She has always had smooth sailing since birth, and it is no exaggeration to say that she is as bright as the sun.
But after the death of Princess Jingping, the grandmother who loved her most, everything seemed to have changed.
The sisters, sisters-in-law, and aunts in the family had many objections to Princess Jingping's preference for her. All kinds of weird things kept coming...
When Lin Zhixiu slapped her in the face, her father just told her not to mind and think about it, "No matter what, you are the royal concubine and you have your own dignity! There will be many people around His Highness King Cheng. Please bear with him more."
My love cannot overpower you! It will be over when that girl grows old! But you become more and more noble as you get older. There is no need to debase yourself!"
Mother, this is pretty much the same statement.
However, although she is a princess, she is also a girl!
I also have expectations for my future husband!
As expected, just like... I was gently supported by that person to get into the car...
But the lover in her heart was doing such a thing for another woman!
How could she bear this?
These days, she couldn't help but go out and stare at Prince Cheng's Mansion every day. She saw Li Cheng riding a tall horse, carrying two carts full of gifts, enthusiastically following Lin Zhixiu in the carriage back to her natal home...
Haha! It sounds like she is a concubine, but in fact, she is just a concubine!
And he personally accompanied her back to her so-called natal home?!
What's even more outrageous is that he personally helped her get in and out of the car, and the expression on his face...
Seeing that scene with her own eyes made her unforgettable and ashamed...
So who am I?!
Since I was a child, I have worshiped Buddha and given alms with my grandmother, helping those in need and those in need, and I have never done anything evil!
God, why are you doing this to me?!
At this time, she had forgotten that she still had a chance to choose.
Sitting in the room depressedly, I couldn't suppress the shame and unwillingness in my heart no matter what.
Open a few pieces of paper on the table and read a few words.
Some time ago, she started investigating Lin Zhixiu. She spent a long time and money, but with no results.
But she stubbornly believes that since she wants to be under the same roof in the future, she must understand Lin Zhixiu, and it is best to know her weaknesses...
At first, she mentioned this to her parents, but they didn't understand and wouldn't let her do it.
She told her eldest brother and entrusted him to help her.
Her eldest brother, Prince Hua, was twenty-nine years old, handsome and elegant. His sister begged her hard, and he agreed without hesitation.
I arranged for my men to go check it out, and after searching for a few days, I only had the two thin pages in my hand... and there was no content.
At dusk, Prince Hua finally came back.
As soon as he entered the house, he heard from the girl that his sister was looking for him, so he came to the courtyard of Princess Heqing.
When he entered the door, he saw his sister, who was sitting there a little lost. He walked over, sat opposite her, and sighed, "Sister, now that things have happened, don't be so entangled... Don't forget, you are married by the emperor."
The princess. With the prestige of my grandmother, and the support of my father and me, which one is not better than Lin Zhixiu?! You can't always feel sorry for yourself like this!"
Princess Heqing said with some embarrassment, "Brother... I know all what you said. However, in the future, she and I will probably fight to the death. She has already taken the upper hand, and I can't be passive everywhere!"
Prince Hua said, "Today, my brother found out something through his connections!"
Heqing's eyes lit up, "What's the matter?"
Her brother said, "It is said that when Lin Zhixiu was in the south, she sent her father's aunt to a nunnery. It was the kind of nunnery where the management was strict and it was difficult for people to come out. Generally, a woman who made a big mistake would
Will be sent in. After she returned to Beijing, a girl from the second room of the Lin family was also sent in. "
Princess Heqing wondered, "How could it be? No matter what, she is still a little girl! She has no father, no mother, and no biological brother! Who can agree with her doing this? Why did she do this?"
She didn't believe it.
Hua Shizi said, "I don't know about the one in the south. This cousin in the capital said that... the brother of the second cousin of the Lin family was in poor health. Lin Zhixiu gave him three courses of Ginseng Baoji Pills! Because this medicine is not as good as the second cousin of the Lin family."
The girl got into an argument. Later, the old lady from the second room sent the girl to a nunnery. This nunnery is the same as that of the aunt. It is difficult to get in, it is expensive, and it is difficult to get out."
He asked Princess Qing, "What kind of dispute could make that old lady so cruel?"
Prince Hua said, "I heard that the second wife's life was not good. She must have favored boys over girls. Coupled with the inducements... that medicine is precious and rare!"
Princess Heqing felt sour in her heart, "Such an expensive medicine... where would she give it away casually?"
Prince Hua did not feel any sourness and nodded and said, "This is quite a gesture. My grandmother had this medicine in her hand. I heard from my father that my grandmother took it when she was ill in the early years."
He said to Princess Qing, "But I haven't heard of it?!"
Prince Hua said, "You were still young at that time."
Princess Heqing asked again, "Is there a place like that in the capital?"
Her brother nodded, "I've heard of it before. I sent people to a friend's house there..."
Princess Heqing immediately said, "Then please ask my brother to check it out!"
Prince Hua was a little hesitant.
He said to Princess Qing, "Brother, what's wrong?"
Prince Hua said, "Sister, you may not quite understand. Such a nunnery takes in women from wealthy families. The nunnery itself has a background. Furthermore, the people inside know a lot of things. Some,
Even if a relatively big secret is leaked, it may cause quite a shock. Therefore, it is generally difficult to get in and get out!"
"It's not easy for my brother to go," he said to Princess Qing.
Prince Hua shook his head, "It's not easy. You have to find a lot of connections and give the nunnery a lot of benefits."
After hearing this, Princess Heqing was silent for a moment, "My brother will help me find the relationship, and the benefits... my sister will pay for it herself!"
Hua Shizi said, "If you don't want a lot, it doesn't matter. You and I are so good, and as brothers, we should protect you. However, even if you go in, you may not be able to get the news. If you get it, you won't be able to get it."
It will definitely be useful. Sister, I hope you can think about this marriage carefully."
Princess Heqing said, "What can I think? Brother, you haven't seen yet, what a vicious and ruthless woman she is!? It's not much better than killing someone with her own hands! If I hadn't prepared at all, I couldn't tell what would happen in the future.
She was also sent in!"
Hua Shizi: "Sister, you are talking nonsense again. Our family is not made of clay!"
Princess Heqing said, "Brother, my grandmother loves me the most, but she is gone. Although I have parents, they have to be responsible for such a big house, so many brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews, and I am a married woman.
How much can you do for me?”
Prince Hua said, "But you know, the most important thing about your marriage is His Highness King Cheng. People's hearts are full of flesh. As long as you abide by your duties, he will definitely give you dignity. This is related to the reputation of our family.
No matter what, your parents will never let you be bullied!"
Princess Heqing said firmly, "I want to take matters into my own hands. Brother, don't worry. You can investigate this matter as you want. I will prepare some money for you right away, and I will send someone to the south."
Take a trip!”
Prince Hua said, "Sister...heh...let me inquire first! I won't go to the south for now. Let's wait until we have a general understanding of the affairs in the capital!"
Princess Heqing said, "But I want to figure things out before I get married!"
Prince Hua said, "I always feel... this won't work..."
Leader Heqing said, "Brother, my sister has never experienced anything like this since she was a child. She also never thought that she would have to experience it in this life. I am really... unwilling! So, no matter what the cost, I will do it. Brother
It's better to help me than to find someone else!"
After hearing this, Prince Hua was silent for a while and nodded.
Princess Heqing murmured, "When my grandmother left, she left me jewelry, a shop, and silver."
It’s only forty thousand taels of silver~
But she was embarrassed to tell her brother because she probably got the most in the family...
"Grandma wants to give me a smooth and prosperous road. Grandma walked half of it herself. The remaining half will be used with the property she left me to continue walking to the end! Let her love me to the end..."
After saying that, she shed tears.
Prince Hua nodded, "Brother will do it, don't worry!"
