033 Second Lady
Xiang Xinmin came up alone, with a small body that had not yet fully grown, and her back was straight and her eyes seemed to have a smile when she didn't speak.
She always gave people a gentle dough look. She stepped on the last step and was startled to see her sister's disheveled look. Then she felt a little envious of this arrogance.
Xiang Xinmin lowered her head embarrassedly, but the next moment she bravely looked at the shiny figure in the corridor, her sister.
Aunt Qin accompanied her to be careful: "Miss Jiu, please." Miss Jiu likes her from the bottom of her heart. She has a good personality. The child taught by the old lady is not wrong, and it looks lovely. But when she thinks that her lady is sitting not far away, Aunt Qin quickly put away her caution and became a normal person.
Joule and Jiao Ying immediately put the ice basin on to give the lady a cool air.
Xiang Xinmin gave her sister a sensible salute first: "Sister Wu'an, sister--"
"I haven't woken up yet, I can't talk about peace. Is there anything I can do with me?"
Xiang Xinmin was choked and stuck, and the next moment she regained her confidence and took a step forward. She knew that her sister had no malice, but she just didn't like to lose the lock: "I heard from the account manager, how many clothes did my sister buy?" When Xiang Xinmin talked about the seriousness, her expression became serious, giving people a sense of convincingness beyond her age.
Xiang Xinci looked up at her.
Xiang Xinmin looked back as usual.
Xiang Xinci snorted coldly in his heart. He was worthy of being raised by the old woman, and it was also annoying: "How many sets do you want to do?"
Xiang Xinmin did not answer her words: "Sister did this inappropriately. Five hundred taels are not a small amount. My sister should have a deal with her mother..."
"It's your mother's dowry!" Xiang Xinci raised her eyebrows like a black panther who suddenly opened her eyes. Her hair was scattered and her clothes were not tidy, but her sharp temperament was only strong! Aggressive! But it made people fascinated!
Xiang Xinmin immediately lowered his head: "Of course not."
"That's your dowry."
“Of course not.”
Xiang Xinci pretended to realize and said anxiously: "That's the family property that your brother inherited? But, isn't daddy dead yet? Are you anxious?" Xiang Xinci blinked and said very innocently.
Xiang Xinmin was so angry that she couldn't speak for a moment. Her sister could choke to death, so she wouldn't have to make trouble again when she asked her mother to come: "Sister is so serious, of course she doesn't."
That's what's the point!
"But have my sister ever thought about how my father has been here for so many years? It is good for us as children to worry about our elders. If we can't, we should go to the direction of family harmony and prosperity. You know the character of our mother, skirt. It's not that my mother doesn't let you do it. Tell me and discuss it. Five hundred taels may not be possible. Three hundred taels will always follow you. Why do you have to be so anxious to go over her?"
Xiang Xinci didn't talk nonsense to her, and she kept talking about this little thing: "It turns out that my mother went there early to make a seat for you. Look, you have finished my mother's business."
Xiang Xinmin, a little girl, was instantly said, and her face turned pale! You—
"Ha, I really think that I am the serious daughter of a serious wife. I have never finished it with me. My second wife is just better than my concubine."
Excessive! "Then you are the serious daughter born to a serious woman!"
"Look, it's not that everyone is much more comfortable to talk like this. It's so disagreeable just now. If you don't send me off, you're too sleepy. You can play for yourself." After Xiang Xinci said that, he yawned and got up and went back to take a break.
Xiang Xinmin's face turned red with anger, but it was useless. After all, she was not good at skill and was robbed of it and said something inappropriate! She turned around and went downstairs in anger!
Xiang Xinci didn't mind teasing her mother who had "dead". Anyway, her mother didn't mind, so she could use it.
Is it more than five hundred liang? His father left her in the position of his legitimate daughter, not because she argued with others for five hundred liang, but because she hoped that she could live better than her mother, with more choices and freedom.
Of course, it is not that she is not unfriendly to her and her own sister, but some people are born to be incompatible with each other, and she has no choice.
Speaking of which, she had fulfilled her filial piety in her previous life, at least - Mingxiluo helped her.
Ming Xiluo did not avoid being a relative of his employer, and he promoted her father to a position of more than ten thousand people. It was not that the elders of the court were better than those of the elders of the court. He could express his ambitions and put his talents into practice. It was very good.
Now, there are still many benefits to marry Mingxiluo. If she wants it, she feels wronged and marrys her, she will be regarded as filial.
Then he shook his head quickly, it was so troublesome. Mingxiluo was so annoying. He would rather ask her father to consider it. After he got married, he would take her off as the legitimate daughter and fight hard on the career path.
Xiang Xinci decided to do this.
Aunt Qin put down the curtain. She was not worried about these things in the yard and she couldn't leave the mansion. She was worried about the lady going out. Although she came back safely, nothing really happened. Why was she feeling uneasy?
...
An inconspicuous news gradually became vaguely mentioned in the small area of the Holy Capital:
Yes, the third girl from the Duke of Ling’s Mansion, have anyone seen the female family in your mansion? The following is a magical saying. I heard that the little girls like fairies are really fine, and these people are saying irrelevant words all day long;
On the day when sentient beings enter the semen? I know, but my literary talent? I don’t know, but I just saw it! It’s not a rumor. I don’t compare myself with the semen;
I heard that the Marquis of Jiang is testing the attitude of the Duke of Ling;
I heard that not only the Marquis’ Mansion, but several other families are also testing;
It is better to be a noble person from a noble family;
How beautiful it is, it is just a genius. The daughter of Duke Liu's family has never said she is good-looking;
Remarks like this are talked about from time to time.
With the slowly fermenting remarks, the tests of the Jianghou Mansion have also reached a stage of making people clear.
Of course, families like both sides would not openly say it as soon as they came up. They both had to give each other a hint and observe it again, and then both sides made it clear that they would come to propose marriage.
Whenever there is a problem in this, each other will sing drums and stop the troops. When this matter has not happened before, retain its original face.
...
As night fell, the gate of the Duke's Mansion was closed, and only a few small doors were still open.
The keys were also dropped in the courtyard of the second bedroom, and the people under the village lit the candlelight under the corridor.
The second house of the Duke of Lingguo Mansion, who had real power, was arranged in a generous and restrained manner, and the servants were not very disturbed. When everything was done, everything was orderly, silent and quiet.
In contrast to all this, the second wife who had just finished her meal.
The second wife was thirty-five this year, but she gave birth to a melon-shaped face the size of a palm, with willow-leaf eyebrows, gentle and soft. She had a good relationship with all the sisters-in-law in the mansion, and her appearance seemed to be broken with just one pinch.
Even so, she didn't dress much maturely, and she dressed delicately, making her look even more beautiful and young.
She asked someone to take off the dinner, serve fruit, and gently make a cup of tea for the master: "Let's rest."
She also came from a family in Jiangnan, and was very soft and well-educated by the elders in the family. Although she looked so useless, the entire second wife was under her control. Last time her daughter suffered a secret loss, she did not suffer, and secretly let the ignorant people copy the filial piety scriptures.
This is the case when she survives a big family. She doesn’t make trouble, but she can’t bully her. She takes it as a lesson for the fifth wife, and she’ll be better off being more sensible in the future.
