[Red Mansion] Daughter-in-law's counterattack era

The girls of the Li family have always been well-bred, and have a good reputation and good reputation. If things go on like this, some things are not as good as before.Jia Amnesty's decision to find Jia Yue's foster aunt was also a wake-up call to everyone in the Li family.Now that Li Zhi is still seeing each other, and Li Wan is not too old, Li's mother feels that there is still time to make up for it.

Li Zhi's embarrassment should not be embarrassing, and Li Wan's situation is more complicated.Li Laoyou and Li Shouzhong have already been promoted to the fifth rank, and his official reputation and reputation are also good. It is not impossible to continue to rise in the past two years. With the promotion, Li Wan is likely to face a draft, and he must educate his aunt.

The current empress is the successor, and the prince is the eldest son left behind by the Yuan empress.Therefore, his position in the palace is somewhat embarrassing.And this kind of embarrassment increased a bit after the queen empress gave birth to her own son.Worried that the emperor is suspicious, the empress's mother's family is an official, she is old, she lives in seclusion, and those who stay in the court are mostly written by people with remote blood and low official positions.Mother Li, the aunt of the clan, was already the closest relative of her natal family in the capital to the queen.

Nowadays, the five princes born by the empress are also getting older, and it is even more lonely for the empress to start a family and start a family abroad. No matter what kind of banner Li's mother came out of the mountain, it is good news for the empress.Li's mother is a serious first-rank imperial order, relatively speaking, it is not that difficult to enter the palace for the first time.

Now that the Li family is an official, Li Shouzhong is the highest-ranking official, but the fifth-rank official is one of the big ones in Beijing.The queen has no worries about dealing with each other.When the queen learned that the Li family had two beautiful girls, especially one of whom was old enough to see each other, the queen couldn't help thinking of being a matchmaker.

"Greetings to the empress." Li Zhi and Li Wan bowed down to the empress Yingying, and their behavior was like flowing water, which shows that the rules are excellent.

The queen looked at the two little girls who looked like spring onions, and she was very happy. She gave Li Zhi a seat, asked the maids around her to serve tea, and took Li Wan's hand, asking carefully.From what books I have read to what snacks I like to eat.

Although the main question was Li Wan, the queen and the nuns beside the queen did not forget to pay attention to Li Zhi.Li Zhi is also a good person. Seeing that the empress clearly showed her love for Li Wan, there was no trace of jealousy or injustice on her face, and her words and deeds revealed excellent upbringing.Seeing this, the empress willingly asked the nanny to bring two exquisite palace satin purses, and rewarded the two sisters.

Now that Li Wan has lived two lifetimes, and has seen extravagant scenes of visiting relatives in Yuanchun, naturally he will not be dazzled by the wealth and honor in the palace.He behaved neither humble nor overbearing when questioning the empress.In addition, he has a witty and humorous personality, and loves to be funny. With the cooperation of his sister Li Zhi, he made the empress laugh.

After seeing the two girls, the queen also smiled with satisfaction, but there were some things she couldn't say clearly in front of the girls, so she smiled and said, "It's hard for you to talk to us elderly people." She pointed to the person behind her. An almond-eyed court lady beside her: "Hua Xi took the two girls out for a walk, to get some air, so don't get bored.

"Your Majesty, don't spoil them." Mother Li smiled, but she didn't stop her.

Seeing that the girls had gone far away, the queen said: "It's really a child raised by Mrs. Li. The rules and education are excellent. Such a good girl, I really don't know who will end up in the future. I'm afraid of going out When the time comes, the old lady will be reluctant."

It is a great honor for my daughter to be praised by the empress, and Li's mother is still in a calm mood: "It is a blessing for both of them to be valued by the empress. Although it is reluctant, the way of heaven and earth, the harmony of yin and yang, cannot The whole life of my sister and son was delayed because of the temporary pain. I just hope that we elders can help them check it out, choose a good family, and consider all aspects, so that the girl can be safe and happy for the rest of her life after she goes out. "

Older people are soft-hearted and prone to mood swings.The queen saw that Li's mother was a little excited, so she had no choice but to persuade her: "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Both girls are blessed. They were born in such a good family, and their parents have plans for them like this." Since The empress wanted to be a matchmaker, and she also watched a lot of other people's children openly and secretly, but if she wanted to succeed, she still had to know the plans of the Li family: "Now that Sister Zhi has reached her age, she can choose another family."

"I'm still watching. Of course my child thinks everything is fine. But I think I'm going to be a wife in someone else's house, so I have to understand it carefully." When Li's mother talked about showing Li Zhixiang a family, she was also full of worries. , I was afraid that I might be wrong: "Now our family is not as good as before. If we don't make a good decision, we are afraid that we will wrong Sister Zhi."

Looking carefully at Li's mother's expression, the queen also knew what Li's mother said was unnecessary.The Li family now has the airs of a powerful family, but without the strength of a powerful family. If they really want to return to their former style, the Li family will have to wait at least ten years.Ten years is nothing to a family, but the two sisters couldn't wait.Even Li Wan couldn't wait, let alone Li Zhi.So Li Zhi's marriage was hanging in the balance like this, whether high or low.

"As the saying goes, there are hundreds of women in a family. If it weren't for the fact that my fifth child is getting older and married again, I really want your Zhijie to stay with me for a long time." The Queen It's not nonsense, although the fifth prince is the eldest son, but because the eldest prince left by the empress was the prince, in order to avoid taboo, the empress chose a daughter-in-law of a fourth-rank small official family as her daughter-in-law.The second daughter of a fourth-rank official family and the eldest daughter of a fifth-rank official family are not much different in status.

The queen left half of her speech, but Mother Li's heart almost jumped out of fright.If the queen keeps Li Zhi and makes Li Zhi a side concubine, it will be either a favor or a panic.

Seeing Li's mother turning pale in shock, the nurse next to the queen said with a smile: "Didn't the empress still want to be a big matchmaker two days ago. Now that I see Sister Zhi, it's not complete."

"Yes, look at my memory." The queen patted and said: "The old lady saw the female history next to me, and she took the girls out just now, her name is Hua Xi. What do you think of her?"

"Please give me your advice." Li's mother was relieved, but she didn't understand what the queen meant.

"Hua Xi comes from the Mei family in Shandong. My father just appointed the Imperial Academy to be a bachelor's degree attendant. It is a rare noble family. Their family didn't need a woman to enter the palace to be rich. It's a pity that Hua Xi is a concubine and never married a wife. Out of the stomach. Marriage of concubine girls is always difficult. Either they are not worthy of a concubine, or they can find someone who is close. She stays by Bengong's side, so she has a certain background." The queen continued: "Hua Xi knows how to repay her kindness, and now their elder brother has reached the age of seeing each other, so she also begged Bengong to give her a daughter-in-law. Brother, find a good marriage. That brother's scientific name is Hua Yuan, and now he has the fame of Juren."

Mei Huayuan, Li's mother also knows this person, he passed the Juren examination at the age of 15, and he is a young talent, and now he is 16.It's just that the two families don't have much contact with each other, and it's not clear whether Mei Huayuan is an unmarried couple, so Mother Li didn't think about it.

Seeing that Li's mother didn't agree immediately, the queen was also afraid that Li's mother thought the Mei family was not good enough, and said: "Although you should raise your head to marry a daughter, no matter what your family background, it is better for your children to be successful."

Only then did Li's mother come to her senses, and immediately said: "Thank you for your kindness, I'm just afraid that the two families have never met, so it would be a bit abrupt to talk about marriage."

The queen smiled: "The old lady doesn't have to worry about it. You can make a bridge, and you can take care of yourself."

Under the help of the Queen, the Mei and Li families also got to know each other better.People from Shandong are bright and cheerful. Mrs. Mei originally liked Li Wan who is grand, but the age of the two really doesn't match, and Li Zhi is good enough, so the marriage can be considered settled.The two agreed to wait for Li Zhi and Ji to remarry.
