There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 196
[Chapter 196, Former Prince Ping]
‘s Yan family, Yan Zhigao and a group of colleagues and friends are drinking rice wine and eating hairy crabs, and the atmosphere is very lively.
In the backyard of the Yan family, Mrs. Li and all the female relatives also ate very happily.
Because there were a lot of hairy crabs, Mrs. Li posted a post for a few families who were close to each other. At this moment, the female relatives of each family gathered around the old lady, telling jokes and anecdotes, while slowly tasting the crabs. Crab roe, crab paste, crab meat.
In Shuangxin Courtyard, Aunt Lin was leaning against the door, listening to the laughter coming from Songhe Courtyard, she touched her pregnant belly, with a lonely expression on her face.
The joy and excitement of the Yan family, even if she gave birth to two children and is now pregnant with another one, has nothing to do with her.
As the status of the Yan family improved, the distinction between the main wife and the concubine became more and more obvious.
Now, my younger brother can no longer go in and out of the backyard at will. If he wants to come in, he must inform his wife in advance, and he can only come in with his wife’s permission, and there will be a mother-in-law by his side.
Only now did she truly understand the sorrow of being a concubine.
In the west wing, Mrs. Liu was sitting in front of the window, quietly embroidering a purse, looked up at Aunt Lin, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth, then lowered her head and continued to embroider.
A long time ago, she realized a truth, that is, people have to accept their fate.
From the first time she saw Aunt Lin, she knew that this was a person who was not willing to give up her life, but she didn’t have the luck and means to change her life.
It stands to reason that a concubine’s room can have three children, which can definitely be regarded as a blessed person, which is something that some high-ranking families simply dare not expect.
If the luck is better and the means are more powerful, maybe, it may really turn her around.
Unfortunately, she met a more fortunate wife.
The three children born to the wife are so outstanding. As long as they are here, Aunt Lin will not have to expect anything else. It is useless to think about it.
At this time, the servant girl Xu’er smiled and entered the room carrying the food box.
“Auntie, today’s Mid-Autumn Festival, Madam asked the kitchen to add more dishes, and I can go get two plates of mooncakes later.”
Liu looked at the dishes and smiled.
She is very satisfied with the life in Yan Mansion, even though the master never entered her room, the wife never treated her badly.
She knew that with her identity and background, only by keeping her own life could she survive.
In this regard, she has no complaints, even if she is not yet twenty years old.
Compared with the other sisters who were tortured to death by the wife of the main house, she was really lucky.
Mrs. Liu put down her embroidery shed, smiled at Xu’er, and said, “Go and eat quickly, too!” The
main peak of Wuhua Mountain.
In the palace, Xiao Yeyang also brought Dong Yuanxuan and his party to eat hairy crabs.
Yan Wenkai roughly snapped the hairy crab’s big pincers, touched Dong Yuanxuan with his crutch, and said in a low voice: “What’s the matter, little prince, why do you have to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace?”
He proposed to go to their house, and everyone was rejected.
Dong Yuanxuan glanced at Yan Wenkai, whose hands were covered with dirt, and was a little blind. Then he glanced at Xiao Yeyang, whose eyebrows were stretched, and said meaningfully: “Naturally, one should spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with family members.”
Yan Wenkai didn’t understand.
The little prince’s family is in the capital, what does this have to do with celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace?
He still wanted to ask, but Dong Yuanxuan had already gone to order the wine with his eldest brother and Zhou Chengye with a wine glass in hand.
At the same time, the Meilin Courtyard on the top of the main peak.
“Is this the mooncake sent by Yang’er?”
Xiao Yeyang’s uncle, Governor Guo, was looking at the mooncake on the table in surprise.
Opposite him, the beautiful woman in brocade clothes who was sitting rolled her eyes at him, and said angrily: “Yang’er sent me some moon cakes, why are you so surprised?”
Governor Guo still didn’t come back to his senses: “No, this child had a bad attitude towards you before.” After a pause, he looked at the face of his sister opposite, and saw her calm face before continuing.
“That kid used to get angry even when others mentioned you, why did he change so suddenly now? He even offered to send you something?” The
beautiful woman is Governor Guo’s younger sister, Guo Ruomei, former Princess Ping, and Xiao Yeyang’s biological mother .
Thinking of the news reported by her subordinates, Guo Ruomei smiled: “Maybe he has figured out something! Since the Dragon Boat Festival, this child will send me something from time to time.”
Governor Guo was surprised, but he was very concerned about his nephew’s change. However, he was really happy. After his sister left Prince Ping’s mansion, although she had never appeared in front of her nephew, she must have been secretly watching his growth.
The world can learn from the heart of loving a child.
“Before Yang’er said that he wanted to stay in Wangyue Academy to study, I thought it was not good, but looking at it now, it is wrong. If you can reconcile your mother and son, it’s nothing if you stay away from the circle of the capital.”
Hearing the capital A coldness flashed in Guo Ruomei’s eyes.
If it wasn’t for some people with ulterior motives who kept whispering bad things about her in his son’s ears, why would his son refuse to even meet her in the past ten years or so?
Governor Guo saw that his sister was frowning again, knowing that she must be thinking of some people in the capital, and immediately changed the subject with a smile: “This mooncake is made special, and everyone is full of flowers. That’s good, it’s like a pig’s head.”
Hearing this, Guo Ruomei couldn’t help but smile: “What’s wrong with the pig’s head? I think it’s cute.”
Governor Guo couldn’t bear to look directly at his sister’s appreciation level, but he still tasted a piece of face: “Well, it tastes good. Yay.”
After finishing speaking, he ate a piece of mooncake in his hand, and then reached for the second piece.
“Crack!”
Guo Ruomei slapped Governor Guo’s hand away and complained, “You’ve already eaten a piece of what Yang’er gave me, so don’t move it anymore.”
Looking at the little sister who was stingy and protective of food, Governor Guo was a little dumbfounded, and muttered: “Isn’t it just a piece of moon cake, why are you like this?”
Guo Ruomei asked the maid to remove the moon cake, and then said: “The moon cake is only eight yuan, let me put it down.” I don’t know how long I will have to wait until I can eat the food from Yang’er, so I have to save some.”
Hearing this, Governor Guo only felt sad, and sighed: “Your temper is too strong. , if I endured it back then, there would be no need to eat what my son sent me.”
Guo Ruomei sneered: “If I had to do it all over again, I would still choose to make peace, but It’s just suffering my Yang’er.” After speaking, he looked at Governor Guo again, with an apology on his face.
“Also, it hurts the Guo family.”
Governor Guo waved his hand: “It’s not your fault, it was Prince Ping who betrayed you first, and there are no rules for doing things. , it’s still good for Yang’er.”
“The Queen Mother, too, has been gritting her teeth and disagrees with mentioning Ma as Prince Ping’s main concubine. Up to now, Ma is only a side concubine, and her son is still a concubine. One.”
A sneer appeared on the corner of Guo Ruomei’s mouth, but she didn’t answer.
Whether it is the emperor or the queen mother, everything they do is to protect their own interests.
