Chapter 126: Insufficient greed
"When Wan Qi married into the Fu family, she always made excuses to quarrel with Fu Yu's second uncle. She said that her marriage with him was arranged by her family for her, and she looked down on him at all. Because he was incompetent, he was not as knowledgeable as Lord Yuan."
After hearing Zhu's words, a hint of sarcasm flashed through Qin Li's eyes.
How capable is that Wan Qi himself? She still dislikes others.
Zhu said: "But Fu Yu's second uncle also dislikes Wan Qi and believes that Wan Qi only gave birth to a few daughters for him in the years since he married him, and did not give him any children."
"He would definitely not be happy without a legitimate son. But he did not dare to divorce Wan Qi and remarry because he was incapable of supporting the family. He had to take several concubines in succession on the excuse that Wan Qi did not give him a son."
"But he only dared to take a concubine, but he didn't want to divorce Wan Qi. Because he was incapable of supporting his family, he lived in Fu's mansion after he got married, and Fu Magistrate supported them."
After hearing this, Qin Li nodded understandingly.
After Fu Yu's second uncle got married, he lived in the Fu Mansion with his family, and Fu Yu's father supported them. Fu Yu's second uncle never raised a family in these years.
Before the head of the Fu Mansion, Wan, was imprisoned in prison, Fu Magistrate Fu handed over the silver to Wan Mansion for safekeeping. Fu Yu's second uncle lives in the Fu Mansion. If Wan Qi is divorced, then Wan will let him and his concubines and their children live in the Fu Mansion?
Of course not!
She had been to Fu Mansion and knew that Fu Mansion's house was not big.
When she walked into the gate of Fu's mansion, she arrived at the front yard of Fu's mansion. Since it was winter, she saw that the wintersweet planted in the yard was blooming. The sporadic branches were not as colorful as the ones were opened.
It's not interesting to see.
The cold wind blows, and the wintersweet blooming in the flower bed sways in the wind, exuding a faint fragrance of flowers. It is so light that you have to go very close before you can smell it.
The trees planted in Fu Mansion's yard are only bare trunks. Fortunately, the wind in the south of the Yangtze River is not as strong as those in the north of Mobei. Otherwise, those trees would be very uncomfortable to withstand the attack of the cold wind and might be blown around by the wind.
The servants of Fu Mansion are quite hardworking.
Qin Li remembered very clearly that when she went to Fu Mansion to treat Fu Shiling, it was snowing outside the house. Even though she went to Fu Mansion in the early morning, there was no snow in the yard. There was no waste or decay on the blue bricks in the yard.
It gives people a feeling of cleaning up.
Although there are no rockery, rockery, pools, water pavilions, or pavilions, the people cleaned the windows and tables of the house. Whether it is the hall or Fu Shiling's bedroom, they are all refreshing. They are naturally better than some ordinary families.
Qin Mansion.
Just as Qin Li was sitting at the dining table and pondering, Guo's words came to his ears: "Wan Qi is a proud and arrogant person. Her daughter Fu Shiling's eyes are actually higher than her eyes when she was young."
After hearing this, Qin Li understood in her heart that her mother also knew about Fu Shiling's affection for Zhao Sheng.
She soon heard Zhu's words:
"Isn't it? I'm going to the grocery store during the day and heard something there. Some people say that Fu Shiling ran out in the middle of the night and met him. But Fu Shiling didn't expect that the person she saw was not the real third son..."
Bai Yunyao looked at Zhu awkwardly and reminded softly:
"Mom, just say a few less words."
It’s not that I don’t know that Li’er likes the third young master. They are saying here that the woman in the Fu family also likes the third young master. Will Li’er feel relieved after hearing this?
Qin Li knew what Bai Yunyao was worried about, so she glanced at Bai Yunyao and said, "You just think too much. The third young master and I are just friends. If someone likes him, I will be happy for him. It's not okay to ask for a woman like Shi Ling."
"Ha, why can't it be?" Bai Yunyao smiled evilly and said:
"Don't tell me, just because she is Fu Yu's cousin, so it won't work."
Zhu and Guo couldn't help laughing as they heard the two younger generations. Li'er said this well, but Fu Shiling was not very good.
"Nothing else, I think she has bad character and impure mind. You think she is clearly good at swimming. I heard from my mother about this."
After hearing Qin Li's words, Guo nodded slightly, "Yes, I knew that the women in the Fu family would almost do swimming."
"She can swim, so she deliberately jumped into the lake, why are she shouting for help?" Bai Yunyao raised her eyebrows angrily and said:
"I really didn't expect that in order to let the third young master save her, she acted in such a sad scene. She was really shameless."
Zhu said disdainfully: "Her mother Wan Qi is so thick-skinned. She has been married to her father for many years. She always has to say that she would rather be a concubine for Lord Yuan. How could she not be affected by growing up in such a family?"
The implication is that Fu Shiling does not know how to cherish her reputation, which is also related to her mother's failure to teach her well.
Qin Li smiled happily and expressed her agreement:
"that is."
When she was in Fu's mansion, she also met Fu Shiling. Her face was only the size of a palm and her face was beautiful. She was not annoying when she didn't speak.
But as soon as Fu Shiling opened her thin lips, she said something made people angry.
Fu Shiling slandered her reputation for no reason, so of course she couldn't have a good impression of Shiling. In this way, how could she accept that she hated Shiling and loved her friend Zhao Sheng?
Even if Zhao Sheng is not a prince, he is at least a handsome man with good character and helpfulness. How could he be worthy of Fu Shiling?
"Li'er, you have been to the Fu Mansion. Have you ever seen Fu Shiling's sisters?" Zhu asked.
Qin Li thought for a while and replied, "I have seen a few little girls there, but I don't know if they are all Fu Shiling's biological sisters?"
This is the truth, she really doesn't know.
In the memory left to her by the original owner, there was not much information related to the people in the Fu Mansion.
After hearing this, Guo's heart sank slightly. She almost told Li'er about some people and some things about Fu Yu's family.
I wonder if Li'er answered Zhu like this, did she really forget what she said to her before, or did she deliberately say it because she hated the people of the Fu family, not knowing it?
Guo looked at Qin Li in confusion and found that Qin Li was calm when he was talking to Zhu. He knew that Qin Li was not lying.
It seems that Li'er is devoted to studying medicine and forgetting some less important things.
In order not to make Zhu feel embarrassed, Guo replied to Qin Li:
"About this, there is only one biological sister who is the same as Fu Shiling, who is fourteen years old this year. She also has a younger sister named Fu Qiaoling, who was born by her father's concubine Bao, and she is considered her half-sister."
After hearing this, Zhu nodded slightly and said:
"To be honest, this matter shouldn't be mentioned, let alone Li'er in front of him."
"It's okay, but you say it's okay." Qin Li narrowed his eyes and smiled, and said to Zhu:
"To be honest, I work in a pharmacy, and some doctors know about the matter between me and Fu Yu. Those doctors who have been to the Fu family will also tell me in private that I was fortunately I gave up the marriage. Otherwise, I am afraid that after he married me, he will quietly take away my family's property and subsidize the people in the Fu family."
When Zhu heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. Qin Li actually said what she wanted to say.
