Chapter 378: Little Thoughts on Volume C
“Are you really Sister-in-law Zhen’s sister?” Feng Ziying was still a little unbelievable.
How could this Second Sister You have such an image?
She has brown hair and blue eyes, a high nose and deep eyes, extremely fair skin, and is a little taller than Third Sister You. Except that her mouth is the traditional cherry mouth of Han women, there really aren't many signs of a Han girl. .
The third sister You is the same, but she is a little different from the second sister You. Her hair, eyebrows and appearance are basically that of a Han girl, except that her eye sockets and the bridge of her nose are still slightly deeper and higher, and her mouth looks a bit plump. , and his personality is also particularly cheerful and generous.
On the other hand, Second Sister You's words were like a kitten's meowing. When I looked at him, she quickly looked away as if startled, and even shrank her body, like a frightened rabbit, but she was too big. It's also a bit too big.
The two sisters really formed a sharp contrast, and they were very different in appearance and personality.
"Mr. Feng, it's absolutely true, not even a little bit false! My eldest sister married into the Jia family more than ten years ago. At that time, I was still an official at Taipu Temple in Beijing. Later, I returned to Ganzhou. After my ex-husband passed away, I took them with me. The sisters lived a hard life. Later, the master saw that the three of us were pitiful, so he married me as a second wife. However, within a few years of this good life, the master passed away..."
Na Madam You was very good at talking. She pretended to wipe her eyes, but Feng Ziying saw that her eye circles were not even red.
“Before I left, the master also said that if he couldn’t survive here, he would go and seek refuge with the Jia family. The eldest sister is also a filial person. Although I have only met her once, she also has special respect for me...”
Feng Ziying couldn't help but want to laugh. She has special respect for you. She has no blood relationship or upbringing with you. She has only met her once. How can she be respectful and filial to you?
Of course, under the current patriarchal rules, as long as it is a formal wife's family, it is really difficult for the You family to leave this old lady You aside, but a woman like You Er You San has to set foot in such a dirty place as Ningguo Mansion. Land, I'm afraid it will really get stuck in the quagmire and it will be difficult to extricate itself.
"…, the second sister originally promised to the Zhang family, which is my old friend in Beijing, but I don't know what the situation is in these years, so this time I also want to go to Beijing to join the eldest sister, and by the way, I also want to help the second sister. Find a way out for your marriage..."
Feng Ziying slowly recalled it. It seemed that this second sister You was really engaged to her before. She seemed to be the son of a Huangzhuang village head. He couldn't remember the exact name, but he didn't seem to be a good person.
He didn't remember how to break off the engagement, but for the son of the head of Huangzhuang to marry the daughter of a military officer, it was probably because You's ex-husband was relatively poor at that time.
"That's it." Feng Ziying didn't bother to ask more questions and just nodded: "The Jia family and our Feng family can be regarded as family friends. I see Brother Zhen often and have had wine together several times. Brother Zhen and several uncles My brother and I are quite familiar with each other, and the Feng family and the Jia family often travel around during the New Year and festivals, but I never thought we would have such a fate..."
“I was saying that we have never been to this capital city and have no acquaintance with it, but we didn’t expect to be able to climb up to Mr. Feng. If we enter the capital in the future, we will inevitably bother Mr. Feng...”
Mother You also took advantage of the opportunity and came along the pole. Third sister You blushed a little and stamped her feet and said: "Mother!"
"Mother, is this wrong? We, from a small family, are going to the capital. Although your sister is the mistress of the Jia family, her family has a big business and a lot of rules, and there are many people in the house. I will go there. Your sister may not be able to take care of her, but Mr. Feng is also an acquaintance. With such a friendship, she will be able to take care of her in the future, right?" Madam You looked at Feng Ziying with a flattering smile on her face: "Mr. Feng, don't you think so?"
Naturally, Feng Ziying couldn't slap her in the face, so she could only nod and say: "Auntie is right. The two sisters have entered the capital and are not familiar with the place. Sister-in-law Zhen may not be too busy. If you have any difficulties or needs, just tell me. That’s it.”
After some pleasantries, Feng Ziying returned to the house, and the three ladies also returned to the house.
As soon as Mrs. You returned to the house, she took her little daughter and asked her questions. After listening to Third Sister You’s explanation, she started to complain: “Sister You, you are not young anymore, and you dress like crazy all day long. How can you live like this all your life when you are wandering around in your clothes? Now that you have entered the capital, I will ask your sister to find a family for you. If the second sister gets married, then it will be your turn. If you live in a small family, then you can no longer look for a small family. You must find a suitable family. Even being a concubine is better than the tight life of eating pickles all day long..."
Sanjie You naturally heard what my mother meant, and she became angry all of a sudden, her face turned red: "Mom, Brother Feng and I are just casual acquaintances. We don't mean what you said at all. You want to keep talking nonsense like this?" language,…"
"Huh, what man is not good at that? The book is not all about food, sex, and sex. I was a little worried before that the appearance of you two sisters may not be attractive to some men, but I think Mr. Feng is interested in you sisters. The two of you look like this and are quite moved. Mr. Feng looks at your sister with direct eyes. Third sister, if you change into a daughter's costume, Mr. Feng must also like it..."
"Mother!" Seeing their mother's words getting more and more explicit, Second Sister You and Third Sister You couldn't help but blush, and they shouted angrily to stop her.
"There are just three of us mothers, what can't we say? Sooner or later, you two will be betrothed to someone. Of course, mother will find a good family for you to enjoy happiness. Mother will also be able to enjoy happiness in the future. Third sister, what do you think of this Feng Young Master’s father is the chief soldier of Yulin Town. Compared with my eldest uncle, which officer is more powerful and who has more money and wealth?”
You Lao Niang has never seen anything in Ganzhou City. There are many disputes in front of the widow. She has been a widow twice. In Ganzhou City, whether it is the You family or others, there are ten people who want to take advantage of her. Has it become less over the years?
She had to deal with everything before raising a pair of daughters, so she was particularly sensitive to this kind of worldliness.
"Mom, I don't know much about this daughter. It's just that the eldest brother-in-law is an official in Beijing, so I'm afraid he won't be bad at all." Sanjie You also didn't know much about this, "But Brother Feng seems to have passed the Jinshi examination, or Shuji Shi, I heard that you have a bright future, I am afraid that you will become a pavilion elder in the future."
"Mr. Ge?!" You Lao Niang was startled. "Isn't that just one level behind the emperor? Such ability?"
After thinking about it for a while, Mrs. You said somewhat mysteriously: "I think Mr. Feng looks at you two sisters the same way as other men, especially when he looks at the second sister as a child, he almost bursts into flames. Third sister, what do you think about letting you and the second sister become concubines to Mr. Feng? Didn’t you say that the Feng family is not a single generation? Although the second sister is still a yellow-flowered girl, she has a curvy girl, a big ass, and a It seems that he is fertile, and he might be able to give birth to a boy and a half girl for the Feng family. The Feng family will probably have to provide for the second sister’s son..."
"Mom! What are you talking about!" Second Sister You finally couldn't help it anymore. Her fair face turned red, her green eyes flickered, and she stamped her feet helplessly.
"What are you talking about? Tell me some truths that will help you gain a foothold in your husband's family in the future!" Mrs. You said angrily: "Men are all good at it. No matter how beautiful you are, it's useless. I'll sleep with you for a few more days." , you are the Seventh Fairy who descended to earth, and he is like that, but as long as you can give birth to a son for him, you will have someone to rely on for the rest of your life. If your son can get an official position and be promising in the future, then you will forget about it for the rest of your life. She is really coming forward, but your mother just failed to give birth to a son for your father and the You family, so she is not welcomed anywhere,..."
"Mom, I'm afraid you are overthinking. The second sister was betrothed to the Zhang family. Although the Zhang family seems unhappy now, Mr. Feng is a scholar. How could he **** a commoner woman as a concubine?" Sister You said with a face. Ruo Bingshuang was so angry at her mother's words that she could not get angry.
"This is a question, but if Mr. Feng really likes the second sister, there is nothing that can be done. With the Feng family's ability, it will be easy for the Zhang family to dissolve the engagement, right?" Ms. You said in a crazy tone. .
"Humph, mother, isn't it good for the second sister to marry that Zhang family and become the official wife? Do you have to be a child for others?" Third Sister You simply felt that her mother was unreasonable. Why did she seem to have changed in just one night? Generally speaking, how come you have identified Brother Feng?
"Third Sister, what do you know? You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are when you are not a family member. You really have to wait until you marry into a poor family to realize how sad your life is." You Lao Niang rudely criticized herself. Daughter: "Your mother has been very careful with her budget over the years. She has been fighting wits and courage with the uncles and brothers of the You family all day long. Isn't it just to get more money so that your sisters can live more comfortably? The conditions of the You family are pretty good. If you were from a poorer family and I saw that you couldn't even afford food or clothes, what would you do?"
"Besides, I didn't say that the second sister must marry Mr. Feng as my concubine. Now that I'm in the capital, I have plenty of time and opportunity to understand that if the Zhang family is a wealthy family, then the second sister may not be able to marry him, but I'm afraid ordinary people may not be able to tolerate the appearance of the second sister..."
You Lao Niang's words really made the You sisters a little upset. Even many people in Ganzhou City did not accept their sisters' appearance, let alone the capital city.
The frequent derogatory calls of "Hu Nu Fan Nu" troubled the You sisters, especially the second sister You, who could only stay at home and had to cover her head and face when going out to avoid attracting more surprised looks.
