White Hedge Dream

Chapter 2 New Wife-in-Law

Dongyang Houfu is located in the northwest corner of the capital, which is a remote place, but the advantage is that it occupies a large area.

The first generation of Dongyang Marquis was a veteran who started his career with Emperor Gaozu. He was born in poverty, had a simple temperament, and was cautious about his duties. Even if he became a marquis, he would still be cautious. He strictly established family rules and all the children in the family behaved accordingly. Although the second generation of Dongyang Marquis did not make any achievements, But he could keep his family and his business. In the past few decades, the Zhou Dynasty had experienced ups and downs. Many new and old nobles had confiscated their homes and destroyed their families. The Dongyang Marquis Mansion had avoided the storm.

The third generation Zhou Jingyun is outstanding in talent and appearance. He has a good reputation in front of both the former emperor and the new emperor. Now that the court is stable, the new emperor is in urgent need of employees. Zhou Jingyun is no longer just a young boy who is smart. He has read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles. The road is steady and reliable and will be reused.

Therefore, although the marriage was not going well, it did not affect Mrs. Dongyang Hou's mood at all. She had a kind temper and loved to joke and play, and she was full of laughter wherever she went.

But today Guifangzhai was quiet, and the girls and servants held their breath and kept silent.

Mother Xu stood in the East Room on the first floor, looking through the window at the young woman sitting in the hall.

To say that he is young, it is better to say that he is a child.

Although she deliberately wore elegant and dull clothes and had high sideburns, she could not conceal her youthful and childish look.

This girl is only sixteen years old.

She is taller, but that's because she is thin.

Thin as a willow tree in spring, it seems to be swaying even in the absence of wind.

Is this the crown prince’s continuation?

Mother Xu felt dazed when she thought of this.

How is this possible?

How can this girl be attracted by the prince?

In the blur of vision, the girl raised her head, took the tea handed by the maid next to her, and revealed her face.

This appearance is just beautiful.

There are many maids like this in the Dongyang Hou Mansion.

What's going on, Prince?

"Even if he said he had an illegitimate daughter outside, I wouldn't find it strange." Mrs. Dongyang Hou was sitting on the second floor, looking at the courtyard, and murmured, "Why did they renew their relationship? Where did you find this? …..”

She didn't even know how to describe this woman.

She is not as gorgeous as a fireworks girl, nor is she as upright as a lady. If she had to find a way to describe her, Mrs. Dongyang Hou could only use the words "naturally long".

The woman walked into the yard, perhaps alone, and the girls and servants at home avoided her. She was like a lonely tree in the wild, inexplicably desolate.

"The Crown Prince said that she is the daughter of Mr. Zhuang's disciple. Her parents are dead and she was raised by Mrs. Zhuang." Huang's mother whispered from the side, "The Crown Prince admires Mr. Zhuang's character. Besides..."

Speaking of this, Mother Huang couldn't help but look downstairs, thinking about the appearance of the young lady she just saw.

“…..Elegant and exquisite, extraordinary…”

She was a bit unable to describe the description in her death letter.

Firstly, I really didn't see how elegant and refined she was, and secondly, the prince had never described a woman in this way.

The prince became famous at a young age, but he was also young and prudent. He never looked at women twice and was never greedy for beauty.

The third lady of the Ding'an family was not an outstanding beauty, and the prince was not frivolous or disrespectful.

She was an orphan, and she came from an ordinary family. Mrs. Dongyang Hou sighed in her heart. This thing was really weird. As a mother, she never thought that after waiting so long, her son would find such a continuation.

"I have never forced him." She said with a bit of sadness, "As long as he says he doesn't want to, no matter if he is a relative of the emperor or a prince or minister, I can come forward and refuse for him. I don't care about my family background. I just want him to find someone he likes, but how can he kill him first and tell him later..."

This woman walked into the house, holding in her hand the marriage certificate of the two of them. The local government witnessed that she and Zhou Jingyun had already held a wedding outside.

Mother Huang had only seen such ridiculous things on the stage in the past, and never imagined that the prince would do such a thing. Life is really like a play, and things are unpredictable.

"The prince said in his letter that he is here firstly for Mr. Zhuang's peace of mind. Mr. Zhuang does not have much time left. Furthermore, for the sake of his wife and the Marquis, he is coming back soon. As the emperor and the courtiers, your majesty is now cleaning up Empress Chiang. The remnant, half of the people in the court have changed, and there are all kinds of new relationships intertwined. What if there is another People are making trouble with marriages, and we cannot let the madam and the marquis offend others all the time. Human relationships are as thin as paper, the late emperor is ridiculous, and the demon queen is in chaos. Life has been difficult these past ten years. Let's see how many of the earls from back then are left. , although now the court is finally stable, the emperor's heart is unpredictable, the prince is afraid..."

Mrs. Dongyang Hou sighed, thinking of the past ten years or so. Today this person's house was ransacked, and tomorrow the other person was dragged away from the court. Even the prince of a country who was determined to rebel would be beheaded.

These princes and counts, who seem to be superior, really live their lives with fear and fear.

Otherwise, Zhou Jingyun would have neglected his work in the Imperial Academy, and after getting married, he would go out to study, and work as a supervisor, all of which were thankless hard work. This was because he became famous at a young age and was stared at by the evil emperor and the treacherous queen. I can only avoid it.

"It's a sin to be kind." Mrs. Dongyang Hou said, reciting Buddha's name.

Seeing that her expression softened slightly, Mother Huang continued to advise: "The prince behaves in a moderate manner. He will not act recklessly. There must be a reason for him to do so."

Mrs. Dongyang Hou sighed: "He has his own reasons. What else can a mother like me do? I just listen to him."

After saying that, he held up the armrest.

Huang’s mother had good eyesight and quick hands and took advantage of the situation to help her.

Mrs. Dongyanghou stood up.

"Then I will accept him as my wife."

Huang's mother sighed: "If anything, it's because you have been so good to the prince since he was a child. He is used to it. No matter what he does, he won't be afraid of you as a mother."

Mrs. Dongyang Hou smiled: "Because of him, I can live a stable life today. Naturally, I also want my son to live a stable life."

At that time, she could not keep two children. She watched her concubines give birth one after another, her mother-in-law was acting strangely every day, and the Marquis, being a good man, asked her to raise a **** son first. She was living like a year at that time, and even thought about dying. Of.

Fortunately, she was pregnant with Jingyun at this time, and she was born extremely beautiful and extremely intelligent. She was held in the palm of her father-in-law, mother-in-law, and the Marquis. Those concubines were reduced to rubble, and she, the Marquis of Dongyang, never suffered any anger again.

She's just a daughter-in-law, so it's not a big deal. The Dongyang Marquis Mansion doesn't expect to rely on in-laws to build a family.

"Of course, our family does not rely on our wife." Huang's mother straightened her shoulders with a bit of pride, "Those people laughed at our background, saying that we can't change our muddy legs in a few lifetimes. As a result, our family's wealth is stable Yes, the others are not even three generations old, and their family fortunes are all gone.”

Mrs. Dongyang Hou came downstairs with a smile on her face.

"Madam, just see her. There are so many eyes staring at you inside and outside, waiting to see you making fun of your evil mother-in-law." Huang's mother said in a low voice.

The smile on Mrs. Dongyang Hou's lips became softer: "I'm not that kind of fool. The one the evil mother-in-law is trying to tease is not my daughter-in-law, but my son."

Mother Huang smiled and stopped talking. She helped Mrs. Dongyang Hou downstairs, and across the large flower and bird screen, she saw the figure of the woman sitting in the hall.

She was also relieved. In addition to the letter to his wife, the Marquis, the prince also secretly had someone slip a letter to her. As the prince's wet nurse, the prince asked her to help comfort his mother.

It can be seen that although the prince did not come back with his little wife, he was extremely concerned about it, lest his wife would embarrass her.

But being a wife is not an easy task.

Mother Huang touched the corner of her clothes slightly and said loudly: "Hongxing, why don't you come up and say something when someone comes?"

The maid Hongxing standing in the hall saluted: "Madam."

The young woman who was sitting also put down the tea in her hand and stood up.

"Ms. Zhuang." She bowed her head and saluted, "I have met my mother."

My dear friends! ! Good morning everyone! !
