Chapter 2372 Gui Zijuan Lang’s love for his concubine, sweet words
"Then what does your aunt mean by telling you this?" Feng Ziying asked in confusion: "The Jia family is like this now. Even if the Jia family's crimes are pardoned, Uncle Zheng Shi's temperament and his official position will be lost. I'm afraid it's even more difficult to go out. How can we still count on him? Uncle Pardon can only keep the family intact. Jia Lian is full of resentment towards the Jia family for doting on Baoyu. It's impossible for him to come back to take care of the Jia family. Who else can we count on?"
"My aunt didn't say it clearly, but I heard that I want to move out and live alone." Xiuyan hesitated for a moment before expressing her opinion.
"Ah? Living alone? Why does she think so?" Feng Ziying was startled, "Will the old lady agree?"
"My aunt is somewhat familiar with my father-in-law's temperament. She is somewhat similar to my uncle. They both attach great importance to wealth." Xiuyan said quietly: "She feels that the eldest brother has been excluded and discriminated against by the Jia family, and it is the second brother Lian. Even though she is the eldest son, she is not well-received, and she herself is not favored by her ancestors. Now that the Jia family is like this, they are making grand arrangements and squeezing money from her. They are definitely not willing to..."
Speaking of which, at least the relationship between the Xing family and the Feng family seems to be closer now. After all, Jia Lian is the son of the Xing family, Yingchun is the daughter of the Xing family, and Xiuyan is the niece of the Xing family. The Xing family also has these three levels of relationships. , so he had the confidence to come out of the Jia family.
From Xing's point of view, the Jia family has no hope at all. She has no children to begin with. Jia Lian, Yingchun and Xiuyan are probably the most reliable ones. In the future, they will have to count on these two for their retirement. It has nothing to do with the Jia family anymore.
Mr. Xing did not think highly of Jia Baoyu, even if he entered the Hanlin Academy, he would still have no future.
Jia Huan may have a future, but Jia Huan is equally hostile to the Jia family. His biological mother, Aunt Zhao, Jia Mu and the Wang family regard her as enemies. If Jia Huan has a future, how much does it have to do with the Jia family?
Even the cold relationship between mother and son Li Wan and Jia Lan and Jia Mu and Wang family is clearly visible. It can be said that except for Baoyu, Jia Mu and Wang family, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, did not really pay attention to anyone else in the house.
Because of this, the Xing family felt that it would be better to separate and live alone. If the Jia family wants to pamper Baoyu, let them do it. Move out by yourself, with Jia Lian, Yingchun and Xiuyan taking care of you. I'm afraid it will be more nourishing than living in the Jia family. Regardless of whether Jia She can come back or when he comes back, it will have little impact.
"Then your aunt is really going to break up with the old lady." Feng Ziying hugged Xiuyan lovingly, "Don't interrupt in this kind of thing. You don't have to listen to advice. She is your aunt. Second sister and aunt, this relationship is there. No matter what she is like, you should go and be filial to her. You don’t need to consider her relationship with the old lady. If you don’t have money and you can’t talk to Daiyu, just tell me. As for your parents, I know that you are filial and thrifty, but don’t treat yourself too badly. After all, you are also Wei Lang’s mother..."
"Mr. sir, I am..." Xiuyan couldn't help but choked.
Actually, apart from her aunt coming to complain, it was her parents who made Xiuyan even more worried this time.
My father is still fond of gambling, drinking, and bragging. This seems to be the nature engraved in his father's bones and can never be changed. Apart from not looking for women outside, these points make people speechless.
He only restrained his gambling a little under the constraints of his mother, but as long as his mother was a little negligent, he would definitely go out to borrow money to gamble. In the end, his mother would cry in front of him, and he would have to pay off his father's debts out of his own pocket.
As for bad wine, that is even more common. Fortunately, the price of the wine is not too much, and there are always some people outside who are willing to pay for the wine for her father. Xiuyan actually knows that, most of them are Ni Er's friends.
It’s just that he is a face-saving person in the government, and he never wants to lose face with money.
It should be said that the monthly payment given by the mansion is much higher than that of concubines in Rongguo Mansion. The monthly payment of five taels of silver that I originally received is already the same as Wang Xifeng's standard in Rongguo Mansion back then. But you must know that Wang Xifeng is the legitimate wife. After giving birth to Wei Lang, the salary was increased to 10 taels per month. In addition to the 10 taels of maternity allowance given by my mother-in-law alone, it is 20 taels per month. In one year, it is 240 taels. Looking at it, How many concubines of wealthy families in the capital city can get such a high monthly salary?
In addition, at the end of the year, my mother-in-law and Daiyu, as the eldest wife, each gave me a red envelope of 100 taels of silver. My husband also gave me 500 taels of personal money in private.
Even Xiuyan herself was frightened, fearing that Daiyu or other sisters would find out about it, which would damage the harmony of the family.
However, Xiuyan was also troubled by her father's frequent debts. She made a rough calculation and found that after returning from Shaanxi, she had paid nearly 600 taels of various debts for her father, which was quite astonishing. Even for myself, it is a considerable burden.
For example, when the second sister went to visit her aunt with herself, the second sister gave her two hundred taels of silver. Can she not give it to her, or give her less?
But with such a large expense, I would inevitably be a little stretched, but my husband was always considerate and caring, and even subsidized himself.
The troubles caused by her family also made Xiuyan feel sad sometimes, and sometimes made her feel a little inferior. In fact, these things could not be hidden from her husband, but his husband never mentioned it, and he still loved her as before.
Moreover, my husband was even more considerate and caring towards me, just like my own life. In addition to custom-making a crested jasper carved Ruyi hairpin for myself, my husband also specially engraved the word Xiuyan in seal script on the jade, and even had a Xiuyun belt. The pattern of smoke can be said to be very thoughtful, which made me realize that my husband and I were in love and happy even in my dreams for several days.
Moreover, after his birth, his maids and servants all pooled their money and asked the chef to make a special table to express their congratulations. Of course, he wanted to appreciate it, but his husband had already distributed a share of money to each of his maids and servants on his behalf, which was regarded as a blessing. How many men can thank people for their thoughtfulness and concern for themselves?
It is precisely because of her husband's attitude that Xiuyan feels that she is simply the happiest woman in the world. No matter how many women her husband has outside, she doesn't care at all, because her husband always has her own heart, and she is alone. One share.
From the inside, Feng Ziying’s attitude of equality from her previous life has always been retained. Although it is inevitable for a man to be flirtatious, especially in this world, Feng Ziying has never regarded the women around her as playthings or accessories.
They are all living people, they all have emotions and feelings, they all have relatives and friends, they all have joys and sorrows and upsets, and they are all troubled by people and things around them. They devote their best emotions and bodies to Oneself, then oneself have to respond as a matter of course, not only materially, but more importantly emotionally.
Feng Ziying also knows that she cannot concentrate on this, but at least she can do everything. There are more women, and there are more things to care about, such as their birthdays, the situation of their family members, and some special days. You have to remember that when the time comes, send your own gifts and care, then this will impress them more than anything else and make them happy and satisfied.
Especially Feng Ziying's attitude of treating everyone as equals is what makes women happy. Whether they are maids or concubines, they can feel Feng Ziying's heartfelt attitude, which is exactly what they desire and value most.
Seeing Xiuyan choked with emotion, Feng Ziying also tried to comfort her, "Okay, you and I should be husband and wife, so naturally we should support and care for each other. Money is just something outside the body. If you don't bring it with you in life, you won't take it with you in death. If you keep it in your hands, there will be nothing left. What's the point? I have always insisted that money is called money only when it is used out. Otherwise, it is just a pile of dead things. What's the use of keeping it? If it can be exchanged for sweetness, happiness, gratitude, and the love of a husband and concubine, In exchange for a virtuous wife and a filial son, why don't you go out and keep them?"
Feng Ziying's words made Xiuyan burst into laughter again. She reached out and hugged her husband's crotch, with affection in her eyes. "Could it be that my husband's words are forgiving me? If I have my husband's heart, it's worth dying." ”
"Xiuyan, you are only twenty years old. It is unlucky to say that you are immortal. Besides, you only gave birth to Wei Lang for your husband. Don't you have any plans to give birth to a sister for Wei Lang, so that you can have a son and a daughter?" Feng Ziying He rubbed the Xiuyan cherry a little and asked in a tired voice.
By this time, Xiuyan was already in a state of passion. She twisted her body and leaned closer to her, panting, "Then please have mercy on me, sir."
Feng Ziying has always liked Xiuyan's indifference and elegance. When this usually quiet and elegant woman blooms with amazing passion, the temptation for her is beyond anyone else.
There were inevitably a few plum blossoms, and Feng Ziying still had some lingering memories until morning.
Fortunately, it was the second day of rest, so he could stay in bed and let Xiuyan, who had already dressed and got up, carry Wei Lang to the bed and tease him.
It's a pity that such a pleasant day of rest is destined to be forgotten. Before getting up for breakfast, the officer of the Ministry of War has already announced on the door.
"What's going on?" Feng Ziying never thought that there would be any major military events at this time.
"I heard that the news is from Yarkand, and the Lord Shangshu invites you to discuss it." The officer didn't know, he only knew that it was urgent news from the northwest.
Yerqiang? Feng Ziying was quite surprised.
He had the impression that the Yarkand side should be very stable. Adurayin is now the governor of Turpan of the Yarkand Khanate, and his ruling position is very stable. He is already vaguely trying to compete with the Yarkand Khanate itself. On the contrary, he is just Ahei Ma, who had just ascended the throne, had been internally unstable because his father, Ma Heima, violated tradition and passed the throne to him.
