The Lady of the Big House in the Red House

Fifteen times Yuanchun entered the palace as a female history

Xu Hui knew about Wang Xifeng's going to Beijing early on.There is no shortage of people in the mansion who follow the wind to steer the rudder. When Zhou Rui's family stepped out of the gate of Rongguo Mansion, there was a girl who came to tell Xu Hui about it.I don't know where Wang got the confidence to believe that she and Jia She would agree to marry the daughter of the Wang family to Lian'er?It's really ridiculous.If you have time to meddle in Lian'er's marriage, it's better to take care of the two maids in Jia Zhu's room.

"Ma'am, Chuntao, who is next to Grandma Zhu, has sent a message that she wants to add some allowances to the two roommates in the house." Pianran said after taking off her vest for Xu Hui.

"Those two roommates?" Xu Hui paused holding the teacup, "What did Chuntao say?"

"It is said that Uncle Zhu likes Yun Shi and Yin Shi very much, and Grandma Zhu is always virtuous, so she wants to mention them all to Auntie, and get some extra monthly money every month." Pianran said, "I am a servant I don’t understand. Seeing that Yun’s and Yin’s are about to fall out, it’s fine if Grandma Zhu doesn’t stop her like this. She also said that she will give them the role of aunt, so I’m not afraid that they will become more arrogant. If you want to participate in Chunwei, how can you be in the mood if you continue to make such a noise?"

Li Wan is really too virtuous.Xu Hui asked: "Did the second wife not take care of it?"

"The second wife left all the affairs of the South Court to Grandma Zhu. I heard that she hasn't inquired about the affairs of the South Court for a long time." Pianran asked someone to bring a bowl of mung bean soup, "It's still hot today. Madam, eat a bowl of mung bean soup to cool off the heat."

"Return to Zhu'er's daughter-in-law, just say that those two girls didn't have the face to be aunts. This routine matter can't be promoted just like this. Ask her to discuss with the second wife or Zhu'er, and then tell her face to face. Everyone in the Zhifu will talk about it later." Xu Hui put a spoonful of mung bean soup into her mouth, "If Mrs. Yun and Mrs. Yin are not angry, I will reject this decision, and tell them to come to me anyway."

"How dare they bother the wife." Pian Ran said with a smile, "The servant just returned to Grandma Zhu?"

"Go." Xu Hui got up and walked to the side of the bed, "I'll take a nap first, I don't have anything else important to do, and then come back to me when I wake up."

"Yes." Pianran replied, changed Xu Hui's pajamas, and waited for her to fall asleep before leaving for the south courtyard.

Xu Hui also inquired about the follow-up matters. Finally, Mrs. Wang knew about the quarrel between Mrs. Yun and Mrs. Yin, which made her son angry again. He also heard that Li Wan wanted to promote those two girls to be aunts, and she was very angry. Regardless of Li Wan's six-month pregnancy, he directly called her in front of her and gave her a good reprimand.He also gave Yun's and Yin's ten boards as admonishment, deducted half a year's monthly money, and suppressed their flames all at once.Rao, Mrs. Wang still felt that she was not venting her anger enough. If it wasn't for the news that Wang Xifeng was going to Beijing soon, she would have resorted to even more vicious methods.

When I saw Wang Xifeng again, her appearance had changed somewhat from before, and her facial features had gradually grown, showing a slightly coquettish look.She was wearing a goose-yellow dress embroidered with light green persimmon stalks, and a waistcoat with lake pigment makeup and flowers on her head. She looked a lot more ladylike in her actions and demeanor.Seeing Mrs. Wang hugging Wang Xifeng affectionately, and helping the butterfly-patterned sapphire-inlaid hairpin on her bun, Xu Hui smiled without saying a word.

Mother Jia didn't know what Wang's plan was. Wang Ziteng's wife was her niece, and she knew it clearly with her fingers.He brought a niece who was about the same age as Lian'er to Beijing, presumably to deepen the bonds of the four major families.But even if Wang Ziteng is in a high position, it is not Wang Xifeng's mother's family of eight serious sons. With a family like Wang Zisheng, how could it be the Rongguo Mansion's help.Therefore, when Jia Mu saw Wang Xifeng this time, she was a little colder than a few years ago.

After sending Shi Shi and Wang Xifeng away, Mother Jia said to Xu Hui, "I heard that you have had many girls seen by you in the past few days, so tell me about them."

"There are the Shen family, the daughter of Shen Bai, the governor of Zhili, the Qi family, the daughter of Qi Ji, the minister of Sanzhi, and the Ji family, the granddaughter of Ji Lian, the former right-wing vanguard commander. There are also a few girls, but they are a little young. Although my mother told me I’ve mentioned it before, but I thought it would be better to take a look again, I’m still not sure about it, and I don’t know how it will be in the future.” Xu Hui didn’t mention Wang Xifeng, and she probably didn’t mean it when she looked at Jia’s mother.

"Shen's girl is not bad, she is also the same age as Lian'er, but she will be drafted in the following year, and such a family has to go to the palace for a while." Jia Mu pondered for a moment and then said, "The empress decreed that Well, from now on, the best girls will not be exempted from the draft due to their relationship, we can't survive the grace of marriage, we can only watch it after the draft."

This Yizhi was still fresh and warm, Xu Hui nodded.Originally, she didn't want her son to get engaged so early, so it's okay to wait another two years.

Unexpectedly, just after October, the emperor issued a decree that girls of the right age will be sent to the palace to participate in the draft next year. This decree surprised many people, but everything that should be prepared has already been prepared. After discussing for a few days, the people in Beijing turned to preparing new clothes and jewelry for their own girls.It was only later that some people vaguely said that because the Supreme Emperor felt that the emperor did not have many concubines in the harem and had fewer heirs, there was only one princess and one prince, so the emperor had to draft talent early to fill the harem with more children.In addition, there is also a shortage of female officials and female officials around the concubines in the harem, because a group must be quickly selected to enter the palace.

The primary election was at the end of spring, and the re-election was at the beginning of autumn, so the jewelry prepared for Jia Yuanchun included both jade and gold and silver. They were made of Sichuan brocade with checkered flowers, brocade with pomegranate red couplets and peacock pattern, and Tianshuibi. They had to be cut by the sewing room for Jia Yuanchun to wear in the draft.

"The second room was busy with Zhu'er Chunwei's affairs and at the same time was busy with the big girl's selection, and finally forgot about the matter of giving Wang Xifeng to Lian'er." Xu Hui breathed a sigh of relief, Wang's every Wang Xifeng will be brought to the mansion in a few days, and she feels fatigued after seeing too much.

"Isn't it? It finally stopped." Jin Mian said with a smile.

"Ma'am, when I was going to fetch some fruit for my wife, I heard the news that the old lady is planning to ask the eldest girl to run for female history!" Cui'er hurried in and said.

"Oh, what's going on?" Didn't you just stare at the position of the concubines in the emperor's harem?Xu Hui put down the notebook in her hand, "But what happened?" Suddenly thought of something, "But because of the rumor that Concubine Mao blamed the nobleman with the staff?"

"Maybe that's the case. People in the mansion didn't dare to talk too much. I guess the old lady has silenced it." In fact, there is no way to restrain it, otherwise Tweety would not have found out.Tweety put down the fruit plate in her hand, "The second wife is probably scared, so she didn't go to the old lady to say anything."

Concubine Mao An Lingqian is the second princess of Qianxiang Kingdom, and she used to be an arrogant and domineering girl.Originally, she was going to marry the Supreme Emperor as a concubine, but it's not bad now.It's just that she didn't expect that as the side concubine of the palace, the Wu family is now a noble concubine, but she is just a concubine, and she is still on the same level as the previous concubine.She is arrogant by nature, she can't deal with the head of the first palace who is a concubine or above, but she dares to deal with two little nobles, Dai Guiren is still lying on the bed recuperating.If Jia Yuanchun really entered the palace as a concubine, she would have to be targeted by Concubine Mao. Probably because of this, Jia's mother wanted to change her strategy and call Jia Yuanchun to be a female historian.Even if she could not be favored by the emperor during these years in the harem, she would still be able to get married after leaving the palace.

"Since the old lady has made up her mind, let's wait." Xu Hui scooped up a piece of apple, "Let's see if the old lady can fulfill her wish."

Chunwei begins on the ninth day of February, and is divided into three sessions, one on the ninth, twelfth, and fifteenth day of the first month, each for three days.Jia Zhu's body has been ups and downs in the past two years, but she was finally able to participate in this spring.Lai Da has been waiting outside the tribute courtyard. Jia Mu ordered him to wait for news outside the tribute courtyard every day, but he didn't dare not listen.On the seventh day, just after lunch, the gate of the tribute courtyard was opened, and several guards carried a candidate out.Lai Da saw that it was Jia Zhu, so he hurried to meet him.

Candidates spent nine days eating, drinking, and sleeping in the tribute courtyard. One day or two was enough. After a long time, they smelled the same smell in the tribute courtyard, and they ate cold steamed buns and clear porridge. How can the son of the family bear it?No, I couldn't survive it until the seventh day, and I was carried out vomiting and diarrhea.Fortunately, he answered almost all the test questions, and he was waiting for the final marking.

"How is Pearl?" Mother Jia rushed over on crutches, and asked hurriedly after seeing the doctor.

The doctor pulled out his pulse and said: "It's nothing serious, just a little tired. Master Zhu has just recovered from his illness, and he has spent some time in participating in the Spring Festival. He will be fine after a period of time. But I found that Master Zhu is a little weak. Xu, I'm afraid I won't be able to get close to women again during this period of time."

The doctor said it a bit bluntly, Jia Mu didn't need to understand much to know that Jia Zhu was afraid that Jia Zhu fainted in the tribute courtyard because of excessive indulgence in women's sex and busy studying for exams.Immediately, he cast a sideways glance at the two Tongfangs standing behind him, causing them to shrug their shoulders.She glared at Li Wan again, and said, "I know you can't work hard when you're pregnant, but you are Zhu'er's daughter-in-law, so it's not difficult to ask a few more questions on weekdays. The two girls are not worried, so maybe you also Don't you know how to teach?"

"Granddaughter-in-law knows it's wrong." Li Wan didn't expect that even if the second wife came forward to punish Yun Shi and Yin Shi, they would still be so unscrupulous. of."

"Pearl also uses a lot here
