Chapter 13 Whoever loses the first round wins (Part 2)
Wang Qinghong's eldest daughter Rong Niang had already arrived at the main courtyard at this time.
With willowy eyebrows and phoenix eyes, peach cheeks and pink face, Rong Niang was born extremely well. Even a Taoist idiot who is used to seeing the beauties of later generations has to admit that his cheap sister is indeed a little beauty.
Other women, with such beauty, would either show weakness or frivolity, but Rong Niang is obviously not one of them. Although she doesn't speak much, her voice is gentle and her eyes are warm, which seems to soothe people's hearts. She is like a painting.
The ancient lady who walked out of it was so perfect.
Wang Qi's eyes have straightened.
When Mrs. Wang Yang saw this, she was really annoyed. Not only did this gangster beat her son, but now he dared to look down on her daughter? Even if they were relatives, they were across the room from each other. It was too ugly to look like this.
A little more.
It happened that her husband was careless and only talked to his concubine and did not see what was going on. Before Wang Yang could signal her husband, Wang Qi had already moved her eyes away from Rong Niang and said to Wang Sanlang in a low voice with admiration and melancholy: "
Grandma said that my mother is the most beautiful. If I had a sister, she would be as beautiful as my elder sister."
He thought he was "quiet", but when he spoke in a drake voice that could not be suppressed, everyone here heard it.
As Wang Yang's daughter, she couldn't bear to blame Wang Qi because she had no father or mother. Rong Niang looked at Wang Qi with a little more pity.
Wang Qinghong had always regarded his eldest daughter as a treasure, but now he felt that although Wang Qi's words were a bit abrupt, he was still praising his daughter's beauty, and he felt a little complacent.
The Taoist idiot's eyes couldn't help but turn around Wang Qi. No matter what, he looked like a little fat man with a wretched face. But this fat man, after beating his son, flirted with his daughter with his eyes, and he could still sit down.
It is my skill to talk freely here so that Wang Qinghong and his wife will not feel bad feelings.
Wu Lang was carried out by his wet nurse.
He was almost one year old, and he was chubby. He stretched out his little arms and tried hard towards Mrs. Wang Yang.
Mrs. Wang Yang took it and rubbed two handfuls. Her eyes were full of kindness. Because she had to take care of the family's meals, she asked the wet nurse to carry it out after Dao Chi met Wu Lang.
For the Taoist fanatic's sake of "catching the wind", only a round table was set up for dinner.
When the table was served, Dao Chi's heart moved slightly. Not to mention the combination of meat and vegetables on this table, most of the vegetarian dishes were within the reach of Dao Chi's chopsticks.
Wang Qinghong and Wang Yang were both paying attention to Dao Chi. When they saw that he was only eating a plate of cold bamboo shoots in front of him, the couple had different reactions.
Wang Qinghong's expression became more gloomy, while Wang Yang's expression showed a bit of gentleness unconsciously. Then he woke up and turned his eyes to his children, secretly despising himself for being so troublesome.
Dao Chi was still undecided about all this, so he ate more than half of a plate of cold shredded bamboo shoots and two bowls of rice before putting down his chopsticks.
It was getting dark outside, but the lights were already on inside. Wang Qi had eaten and drank enough, and with a satisfied face, she said goodbye and went home, leaving only the five members of the Wang family.
Wang Qinghong first said to his daughter: "Rong Niang, you are the eldest sister, please take care of Si Lang more in the future."
Rong Niang stood up and agreed, and Wang Qinghong said to Wang Sanlang: "Sanlang, Silang will also go to Zongxue in two days. He has read less books and cannot compare with you in schoolwork. You should take more care of him."
Wang Sanlang also stood up and bowed in response.
Even though they were a family of flesh and blood, Wang Qinghong felt a little uncomfortable on their first day together. He felt that he had arranged everything that needed to be arranged and given instructions that needed to be told, so he sent his children away.
He himself went to the study room. Even if he continues to "raise relatives" and become an official, it is hard to stop his contacts with the capital, otherwise he might annihilate everyone and really have to retire in his hometown.
Wang Sanlang, who came out of the main courtyard, forced his sister and brother to sit in the Tongyuan.
The layout of Tongyuan is the same as that of Couple Courtyard, except that the upper room has more ornaments and furnishings than those in Couple Courtyard. Most of them look to be old, so they should be Wang Sanlang's old things.
Inviting the two into the tea room, Wang Sanlang made tea for the two siblings with his own hands.
Then, Wang Sanlang smiled and said to Rong Niang: "Congratulations to sister, you have an extra brother, and in the future, there will be someone for your sister to drive." After saying that, he turned to Dao Chi and said: "Congratulations to Silang too, for having a sister like my eldest sister.
, whenever you encounter difficulties in the future, just follow my example and just beg my eldest sister."
Rong Niang snorted softly, stretched out her finger, touched Wang Sanlang's forehead, and said with phoenix eyes: "Are you congratulations, or are you gloating? Are you tired of my driving, and think that you will be at ease with Si Lang? That's a bad idea.
beautiful!"
She is a generous and gentle lady, but when she reveals her bit of fierceness, she is not only not annoying, but becomes more lively.
Wang Sanlang, who was like a little grown-up, also became more childish. He pulled Rong Niang's sleeve and said, "My conscience, my brother is really happy for my eldest sister. When I returned to my hometown from Nanchang Prefecture, my sister was not very happy. Isn't it because she returned to her hometown?"
The reason why everything is in vain? Because my eldest sister is a daughter of a boudoir, I can't move lightly. Earlier, I had to stand in front of me. Now that there are more Shiro, isn't there one more person who can serve my eldest sister?"
Rong Niang was surprised. This was originally a little secret between the two sisters, but now Saburo talked about it without any scruples. It was too heartfelt for his brother who had just returned home.
Dao Chi just watched the two siblings chatting and laughing, and did not interrupt at will.
However, after Sanlang handed over the words, Rong Niang also looked at Dao Chi generously: "I am happy to have another brother. I am the only eldest sister who is a commoner. Unlike other young ladies from other families who only know how to embroider.
After years of hard work on the economy, I still have a few money on hand. If Shiro is in a hurry, just talk to me. I dare not say more, but I have one hundred and eighty taels to take as pocket money. I just want to say it first, and I need to use it.
In a serious place, if you dare to take it and fail to learn from it, and insult the family tradition, there is no need to report it to your father and mother, I will directly have someone teach you a lesson!" At the end of the sentence, his eyebrows were raised and his eyes were raised, adding a bit of sternness.
This time, Dao Chi was really surprised.
You know, the world has been at peace for a long time, and the local people's livelihood is stable. One stone of food only costs a few hundred coins, which can be exchanged for five or six coins, and one acre of fertile land only costs seven or eight taels of silver.
Wang Rongniang, a little girl who has not yet had haircuts, casually promised to spend one hundred and eighty taels on her brother. How could she avoid attracting attention?
Wang Sanlang looked at Wang Rongniang with eyes filled with admiration.
But the world despises merchants after all. Wang Sanlang was afraid that his younger brother would misunderstand, so he hurriedly said: "Fourth brother has never been to Nanchang Mansion, and I don't know where it is. The people there all have eyes for wealth, regardless of status, and they show a little bit of poverty."
, she will be despised by others. The eldest sister said that since everyone uses money to treat others, she will only use money to treat others, and she must not be looked down upon by others. "
In fact, Nanchang is not alone. The current folk customs are like this. In marriages between two surnames, "men ask for dowry, and women ask for betrothal money." Even that fig leaf is no longer needed.
How could the Taoist idiot criticize Wang Rongniang for acting "irregularly"? Instead, he admired the little girl's courage and said sincerely: "Eldest sister is so powerful. She is much better than ordinary boudoir girls."
Wang Sanlang heard this and nodded in agreement.
Wang Rongniang smiled sweetly and said: "You are so old-fashioned, how many boudoir daughters have you seen at such a young age?"
After a few jokes, the siblings finally became more familiar with each other, unlike earlier when they were unfamiliar and polite.
While talking, Wang Rongniang looked at the old and foolish Taoist man and thought he was tired, so she said considerately: "There will be many more days to get close to each other in the future, but if we don't stay together in these two days, since Shiro is tired, he will go back and rest first."
Dao Chi was thinking about other things, so he accepted Wang Rongniang's favor, got up, said goodbye, and went back to his courtyard.
Wang Rongniang did not leave immediately, but said sternly to her brother: "We have only met for a day. Even if you want to be good brothers with Shiro, you have to wait and see for a while. In case..." She said something in the next words
Can't go down.
Although she could not see through her concubine who was neither humble nor arrogant, she could not feel any disgust in her heart. Instead, she secretly recognized that this younger brother was quite well-behaved.
Wang Sanlang hurriedly said: "Silang has lived outside for so many years. It is because his family has treated him badly, and he should be treated well. Before we met, I was worried that he would resent his family, but he was well-behaved and never complained.
I didn’t even say anything, which makes it even more painful.” At this point, he looked ashamed.
Wang Rongniang sighed: "It was a decision made by the elders to keep Silang in his hometown, so what do you want to do?"
Wang Sanlang unconsciously puffed up his chest and said, "I am the eldest brother..."
In the bedroom of the couple's courtyard, the Taoist idiot sat cross-legged on the bed and whispered to himself: "Nanchang Mansion, Prince Ning..."
Although he lived in the mountains earlier, he also knew that this was the Zhengde period.
During the Zhengde period, the biggest thing that happened in the world was the rebellion of King Ning, and the seat of Ning Fan was in Nanchang.
As a Tanhualang father, he gave up his position as a third-grade high-ranking official and resolutely resigned and returned to his hometown. Obviously, he had a hidden agenda.
Thinking of this, the Taoist idiot couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Fortunately, his father knew the current affairs and knew how to choose. Otherwise, if he was really involved in Prince Ning's rebellion, he would become the son of a rebellious minister. Let alone other things, it would be a matter of whether he could save his life...

A little while in the main room of the main courtyard, Wang Yang's face was as sinking as water, sitting on the arhat.
Nanny Xu whispered back that Wang Sanlang personally brought two maids to change the red sleeves before dinner, with an angry look on her face.
It turned out that after dinner, Wang Sanlang quietly reported to Wang Yang about replacing the maid. The injury to Hongxiu was originally caused by him. Of course, he couldn't blame the Taoist for the matter, so he said that he saw the servants in the courtyard.
, sent Xiaosui to his younger brother to serve as his servant; and said that although Hongxiu was born in the family, he had never worked as an errand before, so it might not be appropriate to be a maid to his younger brother, so he sent Lancao there and changed the errands of the two.
It's just another maid, someone else, Wang Yang doesn't mind, but she hates the red sleeves.
Hongxiu's grandmother, Grandma Zhang, was the old lady's dowry girl. After getting married, she has been working by the old lady's side. Based on the old lady's face, even she, the head of the house, was angry with the old slave in her early years.
He raised a cute granddaughter and brought her into the house just for the sake of her position in Saburo's house.
Mrs. Wang Yang felt sorry for her son, so how could she let a little girl mislead her? She sent Hong Xiu to the Couple Courtyard on the pretext of her concubine returning home, in order to cut off the thoughts of Grandma Zhang and her grandson.
Unexpectedly, only half a day later, things would turn out like this.
Thinking of Hongxiu's delicate appearance in the couple's hospital in the afternoon, even her own husband couldn't help but take a look at her, Wang Yang felt her heart aching.
Nanny Xu gritted her teeth and said, "This little bitch doesn't even take a pee or take a photo. She looks so charming. How can she be worthy of serving in front of the third young master? She will dirty the third young master's house."
Wang Yang sneered and said: "Knowing that I don't like it, you still force yourself to get in front of Sanlang, just relying on the old lady's power. I want to see how long she can hold on to her power..."
