Concubine daughter of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

Lin Wanru didn't speak, but put a kiss on his neck. Chen Ruiwen felt itchy, and hugged her into his arms. He really wanted to rub her into his bones, but he had to take care of her body.

Lin Wanru leaned into his ear and murmured: "If I am angry, I will tell you and I won't let you guess. If I don't say it, it means that I am not angry, and you are not allowed to think about it."

Chen Ruiwen couldn't help laughing, hugged the person in his arms tightly, and said, "I obey, ma'am."

In the early morning of the second day, the couple held hands and happily greeted Mrs. Shen. Mrs. Shen looked at her with a smile on her face, and hurriedly let Lin Wanru sit down: "You are a healthy person, don't get up so early in the future, the morning and the evening are settled." It also depends on your filial piety, now this filial piety is enough in your heart, it's still cold, don't you run back and forth to freeze?"

Lin Wanru smiled and said, "Ruiwen asked me to wear a cloak, so I won't be cold."

While eating breakfast, Shen ordered someone to prepare an extra tonic for Lin Wanru, and watched her eat it.

After a few days like this, Mrs. Shen invited Dr. Wang to help her pulse again. This time the pulse was obvious, and Mr. Wang was very sure: "I am pregnant, it has been two months." Mrs. Chen was very happy, this is called People go to Lianhua Hutong and Sixi Hutong to report.

Everyone in the Chen family also knew about it, and congratulated Mrs. Chen, Second Grandma Chen and Third Grandma Chen were also envious, Lin Wanru was pregnant just a few months after entering the house, what a blessing, Chen Ruiwen is the eldest grandson, if Lin Wanru also gave birth Son, who has taken over the eldest son again, there is no need to worry in this life.

Aunt Shen and Mrs. Jiang came here together. Aunt Shen smiled and took Lin Wanru's hand, and she was also relieved. The Chen family is the tallest, and the children are also extremely important.Now that she is pregnant, she is really on her feet.

Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Shen exchanged pleasantries: "My niece is blessed. She became pregnant within the first year of her life. This is rare, which shows the love between husband and wife."

Chen said with a smile: "Who says it's not? My nephew and niece haven't talked about marriage yet. I'm going to be my grandmother, and my two siblings are very envious."

It was the first time Mrs. Jiang came to the door, and Mrs. Shen bought a banquet and stayed for dinner, and lingered until evening before leaving.

Back in Sixi Hutong, Zhishu He greeted him: "Dinner is ready."

Mrs. Jiang smiled and said, "I'm not hungry yet, where is Daoer?"

He Zhishu said: "Msanggong is reading in the study."

Mrs. Jiang talked about Lin Wanru's pregnancy.Very envious: "Zhishu, when will you ask me to hug my grandson?"

He Zhishu blushed.He was speechless, and Mrs. Jiang sighed: "When that vixen enters the door, you must not be merciless. As your first wife, it is your right to discipline concubines and servants. I will not allow you to get close to her. This eldest son will definitely want you in the next life." Only then, you have to live up to me."

He Zhishu lowered his head and was embarrassed to speak, but Mrs. Jiang asked the mother who was serving her to ask the doctor to take He Zhishu's pulse tomorrow: "Take good care of your body. Don't be afraid that you won't be able to conceive."

The Shen family's old house knew that Lin Wanru was pregnant, and they had different thoughts, but Shen Sanniang was the only one who came to congratulate her. Shen Sanniang was Guan's youngest daughter, and she was very pampered by her uncle Guan Hui when she was a child. She lived in the countryside of Jinling for a long time, and because of this, she didn't learn Guan's unreasonable and nonsense, but she was somewhat similar to Guan Hui, with a lively mind and a shrewd person.

First, I congratulated Mrs. Chen for having a grandson, and then praised Lin Wanru for being sensible: "...I don't have a son. If I have a son, I hope to marry such a daughter-in-law. I will have two children in three years, and there will be children at home. Running, just feel lively."

Chen said with a smile: "That's exactly what I said. I only worry about life, not about raising. Don't talk about holding two for three years, even if I have eight or ten, I don't think it's too little."

Shen Sanniang accompanied her with a few words of agreement, and then the topic changed to the two daughters: "They are all cousins ​​of about the same age, as if they are going to be mothers, and Ning'er and Mi'er's life has not been whereabouts yet." Shen said with concern: "Didn't find a suitable one in Hangzhou?"

Shen Sanniang smiled wryly: "I don't even need to mention the eldest sister to know how the Gao family is. The whole family points to my husband's study to get ahead. In the past few years, I was supported by my dowry, and I was able to live on. Last year, my husband failed the ranking, and the family was unable to make ends meet. It's better." Some people looked down on us, and I almost couldn't bear to marry my daughter to suffer hardships. Later, I had no choice but to ask my father to give me a few properties. No matter what, I must have enough to eat. Knowing how to study, how can I do business. I ran a few times in Yangzhou and Suzhou. I didn’t earn any money, but I spent a lot of money. There is a support for everything, and now I am worried about the marriage of the two girls, if the elder sister thinks it is suitable to help the niece to be a matchmaker, my husband and I can only be grateful."

Chen said with a smile: "The family doesn't talk about the two families, and the third sister should not be so polite. Now that you have decided to settle down in the capital, the days will be long in the future, and you are afraid that you will not find a good one?"

Shen Sanniang saw that Shen did not refuse, she achieved her goal, she was happy, and she talked about other things: "Mother has been rambling all day long, saying that she needs this and that, it's like marrying a princess, I can't say anything, if It’s okay for the Ming media to be married, but she was born to be a concubine. Others can say that the fourth sister-in-law is so angry. She still has two daughters who are not married. Say, the eldest girl is going to be a concubine, what are the second and third girls saying? Marriage? The fourth brother was afraid that his mother would be angry when he heard it, so he quarreled with the fourth sister-in-law, but he also complained in his heart."

Mrs. Shen couldn't answer, and felt that Mrs. Guan was too stubborn and self-righteous in her heart. If she hadn't been stretching herself and changed her post early, even if Mrs. Jiang married Jiang Dao first, the Shen family would still be able to take it. He came to reason with Geng Tie, at least he was an ordinary wife, so how could he be reduced to the point of being a concubine?

On the day Shen Man came in, Shen went to the old house, but Lin Wanru and Chen Ruiwen went to Sixi Alley together. Because they were concubines, they didn't invite any guests. Only Mr. Wei who lived in Sixi Alley was present. Only five tables of banquets were set up.

Mrs. Jiang didn't see the busyness of marrying her daughter-in-law at all. She sat in the flower hall and exchanged greetings with Lin Wanru and Aunt Shen. When the time came, she sent the sedan chair out. Because it was a concubine, the sedan chair was pink, and Jiang Dao didn't go to greet the bride himself. Instead, he was dragged to drink by a few classmates, waiting for the newcomer to enter the door.

Unexpectedly, the newcomer did not come for a long time. The housekeeper who was sent to meet the relatives came back with a sad face: "The Shen family refused to let them go, and insisted on calling the young master to greet the relatives. Don’t dare to make a decision, come and ask your wife for instructions.”

Mrs. Jiang's face darkened: "What is taking a concubine and the Shen family doesn't understand?" Jiang Wenming also walked in: "Why hasn't the sedan chair come yet when the auspicious time comes?"

He was also very upset when he found out about it, and said with a dark face: "Tell Guan Shi, how my aunt got in back then, now Shen Man gets in the door the same way, the sedan chair we prepared, no gongs, drums and firecrackers, if she doesn't let her go Man, just right, I don't want to marry yet, let her figure it out."

The housekeeper hurriedly responded, and he was not polite in the past. After saying these words in front of people, Guan slumped in anger, and Erniang Shen yelled: "Why marry? If you don't marry, don't marry. What kind of good is the Jiang family? ?”

The scene suddenly became chaotic. Shen Man, who was dressed up in Fengguan Xiapei, listened to the movement outside and shed tears silently, while Xiao Guan hugged her daughter and cried loudly: "What evil did you do, my poor Man'er?" To suffer this..."

Shen Man took off the phoenix crown she had worn, changed her wedding dress, and put on a homely pink dress. She said to Xiao Guan: "I won't bring the dowry my mother prepared for me, I will leave it to you. Brother, from now on, just treat me as a daughter without me, and I will embarrass you."

She didn't cover her head, so she just walked out, everyone was stunned, Shen Sanniang was busy smoothing things over: "The bride is out, Quan'er, why don't you carry your sister to the sedan chair?"

Shen Quan, who had been in a daze for a long time, stepped forward and put Shen Man on the pink sedan chair prepared by the Jiang family. In the silence, the sedan chair was carried away by the Jiang family, and Xiao Guan sat on the ground in the room, crying loudly .

When the newcomer entered the door, he first kowtowed to Jiang Wenming and Mrs. Jiang, and then saluted He Zhishu, the first wife. I don't follow the Jiang family's rules, let alone how I behaved when I was a girl."

Shen Man respectfully agreed, but He Zhishu was amiable. After drinking tea, he ordered Shen Man to be sent to the new house.

No matter how unhappy he was, the wedding ceremony was still going on in a lively manner, and they left at night. When they returned, Lin Wanru heaved a sigh of relief: "It's finally over."

Chen Ruiwen said with a smile: "I just hope that I can live in peace. I think your cousin is a kind person. As long as Shen Man keeps her duty, she shouldn't be embarrassed."

Lin Wanru put this matter behind her, and started talking about other things. She had already written to Shi Aizhu about her pregnancy. No reply.

She asked Chen Ruiwen if something happened to Shi's house, Chen Ruiwen said: "Shi Guangzhu still goes out to meet guests and friends every day as before, what could be the matter?" The eldest princess made a marriage arrangement for Shi Aizhu, but Shi Aizhu didn't want to, and was making trouble at home.

Lin Wanru thought about it, and wrote a letter to Shuirou, asking if Shuirou knew about it, but Shuirou rushed over after receiving the letter, and was very helpless: "That man is really good, his name is Duan Ling, my ancestor He is a prince and aristocrat from Dali, Yunnan. Later, he fell into decline and his family moved to Shandong. Duan Ling has a reputation as a martial artist, and now he is practicing in the army. He heard that he is also very handsome. Come on down, you also understand what Cute Pearl is thinking, crying and quarreling and refusing to respond, the Eldest Princess can't let her go, she has already changed Geng Tie and passed Xiao Ding."
