Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

Tu Youhao urged the coachman to speed up his horse all the way, and went back to the palace in a rage. As soon as he entered the door, he put on a straight face, scaring everyone in the palace to tremble.Seeing this, Tu Youhao became even more angry, and drove everyone away, sitting in the room sulking.

He wondered, Jia Hu is such a smart person, how come at night, it seems like he can't look at people, and only picks up words he doesn't like to hear?

Annoyed, he tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep well. He got up early the next day and rushed to court. When An Yi helped him to wash up, his eyes were black and blue. It took some plaster to barely see it.But the more this happened, the more unhappy Tu Youhao became. Since he was so depressed here, Jia Hu wondered why he was happy about his marriage when he was outside.

Who is to blame?Who told me to have any bad thoughts, but why did I have such unreasonable thoughts about Jia Hu?While thinking this way, Tu Youhao couldn't help being jealous. With Jia Hu's outstanding appearance, how can ordinary women match him?Now that he is in such a hurry to get married, what good candidate can he pick?

It seems that he still thinks that he is not upset enough, and Concubine Chen still wants to come over to make trouble for him.Not long after she came to court, Concubine Chen sent a message that she had something important to discuss with Tu Youhao.

Tu Youhao hurried all the way to Concubine Chen's residence, thinking she was in a hurry, but as soon as she entered the hall, she saw a room full of cloth jewelry piled up in the hall, Concubine Chen led the maids to choose happily, while Talking about the good color of this color, she also said that the color of the color is new. Seeing Tu Youhao came in, all the maids in the room saluted together. Concubine Chen put down the cloth, she didn't notice Tu Youhao's livid face at all, and said happily : "Hao'er is here, come and see, which of these fabrics do you like?"

But Tu Youhao looked at the piled up fabrics, all of which were rich, luxurious, and exquisitely patterned, and they were the style that Concubine Chen liked the most. With that color, it was impossible for him to make clothes for him.Concubine Chen used to think that the prince would be taken care of by the palace, and that someone would be responsible for his basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation, so she didn't need to worry too much. Therefore, in the past ten years, except for the occasional whim, she made two clothes for him, she rarely cared about Tu Youhao's clothes on weekdays. , thinking about it now is no exception.Tu Youhao immediately felt a little unhappy in his heart, and said impatiently: "How do I know these things, I just pick whatever the concubine mother likes to make clothes."

Concubine Chen was full of joy, and asked Tu Youhao to pour cold water down. She was so bored, she threw the fabric in her hand to the side, and said angrily, "It's not for me to make clothes, I'm not for you?"

Tu Youhao Zhang Er King Kong couldn't figure it out, he just frowned and said strangely: "For me? Is the mother concubine still planning to make clothes for me? It's very unnecessary, someone from the needlework bureau in the palace is responsible for this, so don't bother the concubine mother." .” There was a sense of sarcasm in the speech.

Concubine Chen said angrily: "Why did you talk to me? This is your attitude as a son?!"

Aunt Ji was very anxious. She had followed Concubine Chen for more than 20 years and knew Concubine Chen very well. Although Concubine Chen was unparalleled in beauty, she was just a vase with a good-looking surface and a fool inside.Over the years, she has persuaded her countless times, but she cannot have a biological separation with Tu Youhao. Although they are mother and son, there is no family relationship in this palace.If Chen Feiruo has always been unhurried towards Tu Youhao, Tu Youhao will also feel alienated from her.To be disrespectful, wait until today is gone, Concubine Chen will have to rely on her son Tu Youhao in the future, and it is not someone else, the flesh and blood that fell from her body, Concubine Chen will devote half of her heart to have fun with Tu Youhao With Hao, the mother and son can also be much closer.

It's a pity that Concubine Chen is not smart, but she is stubborn. No matter how Nanny Ji persuades her, she just won't listen. "Son still resents his parents?" Concubine Chen said decisively, "How dare he forget the kindness of giving birth? Look at my father and brother, who sent me out like a cargo. Don't I still respect and be filial to them? Send gifts and letters on New Year's Day The son I gave birth to naturally knows how to be grateful, and besides, I didn’t treat him badly, did I?” He actually only cared about living on his own, thinking of caring about Tu Youhao, if you want to say how good you are to Tu Youhao, it’s really nothing.

Just like making clothes for Tu Youhao, the status of Concubine Shu, who also makes clothes for her son from time to time to win his son's heart, but Concubine Chen, Mother Ji said many times, Concubine Chen just thinks it is troublesome to take needles and threads , No matter what, if you want to tell Mammy Ji, it's no wonder that Tu Youhao is lukewarm to Concubine Chen, and the relationship between mother and child is weak.

But no matter what, Nanny Ji is the nanny next to Concubine Chen, and she lives by Concubine Chen, so she can't watch Tu Youhao and Concubine Chen quarreling like this, seeing the situation is not good, so she hurried out to smooth things over and treat the disciple You Hao explained: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Your Majesty also has good intentions. These pieces of cloth are intended to be sent to General Anxi's Mansion."

General Anxi is the father of Concubine Chen. The Chen family has made great contributions in the army these years. It is because the Xia family is unwilling to let the subordinate families grow bigger. The position of the third-rank General Anxi is that Chen Qi, the brother of Concubine Chen, is now also a fourth-rank Pinglu Zhonglang General. He has his own team in the army and has some prestige.

Tu Youhao looked at Nanny Ji's face and Concubine Chen's painstaking efforts for you. Concubine Chen raised her chin, looking confident and confident, and became more and more suspicious. She looked at the two of them without a smile on her face, and asked: "What the hell are you doing?" What do you want to say, don't beat around the bush like this."

Concubine Chen might as well say that this son is so ignorant of good and bad, and she didn't care about the exhortation of "take your time and talk carefully" that Ji Nanny had been persuading earlier, and said angrily: "It's a waste of my time for you, sorry Mother, that’s how you talk.” She patted the table and touched her chest, blushing with anger, and Mother Ji hurried forward to check, but Concubine Chen ignored her, and she shed tears for a long time, but no one was seen. You Hao came to persuade him, even more sad, the veil covered the corners of his eyes, and said sadly, "Come on, whoever said you are my son, it's because you are dissatisfied with me, I always have to worry about you." Pointing to those cloth jewelry, he said to Tu Youhao, "You are not old enough, and it will be too late if you don't get married. The queen also spoke out, saying that she will watch you marry a wife. Your grandmother and aunt Entering the palace, we discussed it. Although your marriage is decided by the Lord Long Live, the candidate is chosen by the harem. The empress does not say that the Xia family has treated the Chen family in recent years. Don't worry, otherwise you won't be a serious businessman. Rather than asking them to randomly pick people into your backyard, let's decide..."

When Tu Youhao heard this, he suddenly realized, and wondered that Concubine Chen had come to him because of her original idea, and immediately sneered, "The second cousin of my uncle's family is fifteen this year, right? I heard that she is a woman with both talent and beauty. ?”

After Concubine Chen heard this, she became excited and stopped crying. She straightened up and said in surprise, "Do you still remember your cousin? Yes, I have told you many times that Yan'er is gentle and decent, with outstanding appearance. He is a rare good boy..."

Tu Youhao looked coldly at Concubine Chen talking cheerfully, the coldness in his eyes grew deeper, but Concubine Chen didn't notice it at all, and said happily: "I told your grandmother and aunt at that time, Yan'er is really There is no better candidate to be your concubine, just right! You are my son and she is my niece, and we can live in peace and beauty in the future..."

Tu Youhao couldn't bear Concubine Chen's self-talk any longer, and suddenly raised his hand to interrupt her, and said with a sneer: "Chen Qiyan is just the daughter of a fourth-rank official, and she is not the eldest daughter. To be my concubine? Mother should stop talking about it, the son is already outside, and people look down on him, and if there is such a marriage, he will not even be able to lift his head. "

Concubine Chen couldn't hear such ugly words, her body was trembling with anger, she rushed up to face Tu Youhao and was about to strike, but Tu Youhao frowned and dodged it, and Mother Ji tried her best to hold her back.Concubine Chen couldn't break free, she wiped her tears and scolded: "Look at what you said, you still look down on your uncle and grandpa, what's wrong with you from the fourth grade? That's your uncle, your cousin! You are a prince! , you don’t even look down on your own relatives, so don’t you still despise me as a mother!”

Seeing Concubine Chen's agitated and angry appearance, Tu Youhao really couldn't understand.Concubine Chen's life in the Chen family was not good, her father and brother never took her seriously, so there was no need to care about her, but Concubine Chen's third younger sister was eloquent and loved very much in the Chen family.If it weren't for Concubine Chen's beautiful face, she might not be able to live in the Chen family.Later, in order to get back to the Xia family, the Chen family gave the concubine Chen as a gift to the Xia family, and gave it to the concubine Shu who is now a favorite.Could the Chen family know how dirty the prince's backyard was?It was just sacrificing a daughter for his own benefit.If Concubine Chen was at that time, she was an abandoned child.Concubine Chen's life in the palace was not easy. If she hadn't given birth to a son, she wouldn't be sure what would happen now. Concubine Chen had never hated her before. When talking about the Chen family, she would gnash her teeth. Tu Youhao still thought she hated her to death. The Chen family.Who knew that Chen's father was promoted a few years ago and came to the capital to report on his duties. The family members stayed in the capital as usual, in the name of taking care of the affairs of the capital, but they were actually hostages. They hugged each other and cried without any grievances.

Have you forgotten all the hardships she suffered back then?

Tu Youhao really couldn't understand Concubine Chen, but in his heart he remembered how the Chen family ignored him back then.Obviously he is the serious grandson and nephew of the Chen family, but every year the Chen family will send a large sum of gifts to the Xia family, and the top-quality mutton fat white jade that the second prince carried was bought by the Chen family from outside the pass. I didn't see a single piece of the most common fur.

Don't they not care about this unfavorable prince?Now, why does Baba want to marry his daughter to him?Tu Youhao sneered, and said directly to Concubine Chen: "You should give up on this idea. Look at the concubine of the eldest brother and the second brother. Which one is not the daughter of an important minister in the court and has a noble family background? It is the third brother's place. In the future It must be marrying a noble daughter. With the current family status of the Chen family, they still want to marry their daughter to me as a regular wife? Are they too embarrassed to open their mouths?!"

Concubine Chen was so angry that she scolded Tu Youhao for being unfilial. Hearing the veins on his forehead twitching, she became anxious, and said: "The daughter of the Chen family can come into my house if she wants, but a concubine is enough. A regular wife? Don't even think about it." Think about it!" Flicking his sleeves, he left.As for Concubine Chen's scolding behind her back?who cares!

Concubine Chen looked at the back of her son walking away, pushed with both hands, threw all those cloth jewelry to the ground, covered her face and cried loudly: "Why did I give birth to such a son!"

Nanny Ji looked at her helplessly and sighed.The mother-child relationship between the fourth prince and concubine Chen is really weak, but they don't give face to their biological mother so much. It's understandable that the uncle's cousin is married, even if the status is lower, but the fourth prince... It's a pity, if the daughter of the Chen family marries After leaving Tu Youhao, there was someone in the middle. Concubine Chen and Tu Youhao, naturally, might be able to make up for some of the mother-child relationship. Now, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

But, can this blame Tu Youhao?Nanny Ji looked at Concubine Chen who could only cry and scold Tu Youhao, her head was as big as a bucket, and she sighed...
