Xue Bawang's daily life

Emperor Zhaohe then ordered someone to draw up the imperial edict, and just a moment later, a young eunuch rushed over, knelt down and told the emperor: "Your Majesty forgives your sins. It's really strange. Mr. Xu is drafting the imperial edict according to His Majesty's wishes." , but every time you write down the name taboo of Lin's daughter, it will be broken from the middle. Now there are five pieces broken, Master Xu can't do it, so he has to order the servant to come and report."

Emperor Zhaohe was also surprised, looked at Lin Jue, and asked, "What is the reason for this?"

Lin Jue had no choice but to say: "The minister didn't dare to say it just now, because he was afraid that the head of the country would think that the minister was evasive. The monk once said that within this year, marriage will no longer be discussed. I also said that it is not yet New Year's Eve. Now it’s okay to talk about marriage. The monk pointed his fingers to the Tao, and there was a god on his head. Since the old monk already knew, who didn’t know? I was taken aback at the time, and I was afraid that the monk would fool me. Then I looked for a few more monks and Taoists, but no one could say anything. The minister went home and mentioned it to his wife. When Jufan said that he had set a wedding date for the two first, he either threw the cup or smashed the tiles. Yes, no one in the family dares to mention it now, and Sister She has already entered the Buddhist hall to clean up."

Emperor Zhaohe was also surprised, and couldn't help probing, "If it were not for me to say, I would never believe in such fortunetelling." After speaking, Emperor Zhaohe said that the wedding date of the two would be next year, Immediately, a teacup broke for no reason, which shocked Emperor Zhaohe.

Lin Jue hurriedly knelt down to plead guilty, Emperor Zhaohe waved it off indifferently, "It's really a miracle."

Old Master Chen became more and more suspicious, 12 points of disbelief in his heart, but he couldn't tell the reason.

Lin Jue stood up and said, "Don't dare to hide this from your majesty. My sister She had some inadequacies when she was young. She was seriously ill every day and five days a little sick. I really worried my parents. My father even wrote a letter to her. Jing’s grandparent’s family, begged them to invite an imperial doctor to go to see and treat. Although they also prescribed medicine to take, it was a little relieved, but it was still not good. At this time, a monk came outside the door and asked Hua Shemei to go to become a monk. , the minister's parents only have the minister and the younger sister, how can they be willing to part with it. The monk said, either he should become a monk, or he must not leave home, even if he does not go to the relatives' house, he can live a safe life."

Emperor Zhaohe laughed, "Your sister still has such an adventure, it's strange that you want to take her out of Jia's residence."

Lin Jue's cheeks were slightly red, "Everyone said that my grandfather's family was not kind and filial, so I separated from her family. This is really a great injustice. When my sister was at the grandfather's home, her body was as weak as a day. One day, when you get home, you will be fine. That's the reason why Sister She doesn't go out much."

Master Chen's brows moved slightly, and he didn't know whether Lin Jue's words were true or not.If that Lin's daughter really had such a body, it would be really difficult for her to enter his house.If he died in his house, wouldn't it be the result of endless death?He accepted the marriage with the Lin family to win over Lin Jue, not to make enemies.

Old Master Chen, who had been silent all this time, said, "I haven't heard Nephew Lin mention this before."

Lin Jue then said softly: "It wasn't a big deal at first, my sister is doing her best now. And in the future, she will enter the Chen family and become Chen's wife. Naturally, the Chen family will be her home, and her body will naturally be a day. It's better for a day, it's just that we relatives rarely see her."

Old Master Chen choked.

He really knew the tricks of the monarch and his ministers, but he really couldn't believe it.He is only Chen Yejun's son-in-law, and he is competitive, so if there is something wrong with him, tell him to reason with someone.

It's just a matter of fighting for a moment.

Mrs. Chen entered the palace, and when she saw her daughter, she began to cry.

She is also in her 50s, and although she takes good care of herself during the day, she and Empress Chen don't look like mother and daughter, but like sisters.After all, she is old, and she is Empress Chen's own mother, and now she is crying like this, how could Empress Chen see her like this, so she comforted her in a low voice.

Wiping her tears, Mrs. Chen choked up and said: "I said that brother Jun didn't match up with that girl of the Lin family, but he committed a leftist behavior and must look down on that girl. Our family is not like that who hates the poor and loves the rich." For those who admire power, although that girl lost her father and mother since she was young, fortunately, she came from a serious and scholarly family. She also invited a nanny to raise her well when she was young. Since my brother likes it, our family begged for him. The empress also knows Brother Jun's disposition, he is the most innocent, but because the girl of the Lin family has been waiting for him before she reaches Ji, there are two dishonest people in the house, and they are also sent out. Which family's son is actually He lived such a poor life, but he still only had fun every day, and would run to the Lin family every few days. Who knew that the Lin family had climbed a high branch now, and even said that if they regretted their marriage, they would regret it. Brother Jun heard that I've been lying in bed for a few days now."

Empress Chen was not angry when she heard the words, and persuaded with a smile: "Mother, why should you be angry with his family? The original Lin family is not a good match. If Brother Jun didn't like him, our family is not the kind that needs to be married. People, would you fall in love with his girl? Now I just look at the decline of the Chen family, so I want to cling to her. What is it worth?"

Mrs. Chen was still upset, Empress Chen whispered: "It was originally our family who proposed marriage, it is really not good to end this marriage first, now that the Lin family has become the slave of that little bastard, it is clear that there is a quarrel with our family. Here we come. I have already found a good marriage for Brother Jun..."

Mrs. Chen listened carefully to what Empress Chen said, and thought about Zhou Ge's granddaughter who was still in her boudoir, and said in shock: "How did this happen?"

At that time, Mr. Zhou Ge was the chief assistant of the court, and the elder of the court, but he was also a Qingliu, no matter how involved with those royal relatives, relatives, princes, princes, and grandchildren of the family.Because he was loyal to the country wholeheartedly, he was reused by the royal family.But he also has a concern, he only has two sons-in-law, the eldest son married a girl from a petty official's family, and now he is serving as an outsider with his husband, and he doesn't know how many grandchildren he has. Although he is not rich, but I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and there are servants at home.

What he was worried about was the family affairs of another son.Elder Zhou Ge's youngest son is not very promising, and because his elder brother was out of office, he stayed in front of his parents to fulfill his filial piety.This is also unlucky. He married two wives successively, and only the first one left a girl.Because of one death in a row, she has the reputation of being a poor wife, and when she married the fourth one, she was a girl from a merchant family.This family just saw Zhou Ge's official voice and intended to cling to him, so they randomly married the daughter of the family into Zhou's family as his successor.

It's just that no matter how honest and upright Mr. Zhou Ge is, although it is really impossible for his son to marry a wife, he can only marry a merchant girl, but he is no longer willing to provide them with some convenience.It's just a matter of promotion, but Mr. Zhou Ge refused, so the family was not happy.She was simply a concubine, and she gradually lost contact with her.

But that stepwife was a hard-fated one, and he didn't ask Master Tuesday to die, and gave birth to a fat boy the next year, which made Master Tuesday very happy.

But this matter is also bad for this stepwife. She was originally the concubine's daughter. She can withstand the reputation of Master Zhou as a wife, and marry into Zhou's family under the name of the concubine. How can it be a good match? .Yuan also pretended to be virtuous and came out, treating the eldest daughter at home with care and consideration, which made Zhou Ge and the old couple feel at ease to raise Eldest Sister Zhou with her.Not wanting to give birth to a boy, he sang a Beijing opera and changed his face drastically.

On Tuesday, the eldest daughter of the old man's original wife was tortured to the point where she accidentally knocked over a candle while serving at night, and burned half of her face.After Elder Zhou Ge found out, he was extremely furious, so he took his granddaughter into his yard, and refused to allow Master Zhou and his step-wife to step into the threshold.

It's just that there was a scar on her face after all, and her appearance was not that outstanding at first, now that she was old enough, and someone came to see her, naturally rumors spread.Or maybe it was the rumor from the second master's stepmother that the eldest girl in the family was called out as Wuyan girl.Now, everyone in Shangjing knows that the granddaughter of Zhou Ge's hometown is a salt-free girl, she is now in her twenties, and she is still working as a sister-in-law at home.

At that time, the eldest girl of Zhou was determined to become a monk and she was done. If a girl these days does not get married at the stipulated age, she will be troubled at home.It's not that she can't get married at all. To put it bluntly, there are many peasant families who can't marry a wife because of poverty, and there is no place for her.Only Mr. Zhou Ge felt sorry for the suffering of the eldest girl, her biological mother died early, her stepmother was unkind, and her own father was there, but she was so thoughtful that she didn't know where she had gone.He was no longer willing to dismiss Miss Zhou casually.

Mrs. Chen naturally also knew that Miss Zhou was not famous for her appearance. Although she was dissatisfied with the treachery of the Lin family, she had to admit that Miss Lin was really a fairy-looking girl, so it was no wonder her son looked up to her.

Even if he is dissatisfied with the Lin family, he can't marry his son a girl without salt.And this week's eldest girl's name is known to everyone, and it has been known by other nobles, so maybe how to gossip about it.Moreover, Mrs. Chen wondered: "The age is not quite the same."

Empress Chen sneered, "There is a folk saying that women hold gold bricks, age is nothing, mother is not happy, why use this to deceive me?"

Mrs. Chen hurriedly said: "Your Majesty also knows how beautiful the girl from the Lin family is. If it's Miss Zhou, I'm afraid Brother Jun won't like it."

Empress Chen said: "Mother doesn't know what I mean? Brother Jun is my own younger brother, don't I love him? It's just that in the current situation, mother also understands that if our prince wants to ascend the throne smoothly, he needs some help. Zhou Ge is the elder of the court, and the most important thing is His Majesty’s trust. If you can win Zhou Ge, what will our prince worry about? I don’t expect the appearance of the second child. The old is just weaker. These days We’ve already met, but what do you think my cousin means? Now we need more firewood.”

Of course Mrs. Chen understood, but she was not happy in her heart, "The famous stinky stone of Zhou Ge married his granddaughter. Could it be that he will be able to stand with the prince?"

Empress Chen was still a little reluctant to hear that she was not annoyed, she still smiled and said: "He is a person who follows the ancient etiquette. I heard that Miss Zhou had already set up a Buddhist hall at home to chant scriptures every day. Mr. Zhou Ge has already started to search for some squires' homes these days. It's just that the squires' homes are easy to find, at such an age , it’s not bad, or it’s a successor, how can Mr. Zhou Ge be willing?"

Empress Chen lowered her voice and continued to persuade: "Besides, what can she be worth? We are only looking at the Zhou family. When she enters the door, whoever treats her with a handsome brother every day, just pay attention to the gold bottle and jade." Speaking of it, there is no shortage of food and clothing, and it is also a merit of our family to inherit the incense in the future. If Brother Jun really likes that Lin girl, it is not worth doing. I will take care of that Lin boy in the future and go to the house to do it. Getting a concubine is flattering her."

When Mrs. Chen heard it, she was quite moved.
