Chapter 604
Chapter 604
Lu Ninghua got up early every day and had already eaten breakfast, and Bai Jinse wanted to ask Miss Lu some questions that she didn't understand in the medical books yesterday, so she left with Lu Ninghua.
The eldest princess is not the kind of mother-in-law who likes to tease her daughter-in-law. In these years, she has never asked any daughter-in-law to set up rules in front of her and serve her breakfast, so she asked Mrs. Liu to sit down and eat together.
During the meal, Mrs. Liu somehow heard about the family affairs of Bai Qingyan's uncle, Honglu Temple Minister Dong Qingping.
"At the beginning of September, the concubine of the Dong family just got engaged to the eldest son of Fu's family, and exchanged Geng Tie. I heard Mrs. Huang's family say that it is very good to combine characters. I don't know if the Dong family will cancel this marriage for their daughter..."
Bai Qingyan has never heard of this matter. If it is said that the two families exchanged Geng Tie at the beginning of September, because Bai Qingyan was with the prince at that time, the news with Bai Jinxiu was cut off. Then when she came back yesterday...why didn't Jinxiu not Tell her about this?
She thought that since she just came back yesterday, she didn't have a moment of leisure, it should be because Jinxiu loves her so much that she didn't tell her about some things.
However, Fu Ruoxi's elder brother has only one legitimate son, and he is also the eldest son and grandson of the Fu family. There have been precedents in the capital city where the second son married a concubine's daughter, but there has never been an eldest son who married a concubine's daughter as his wife. Yes, there is no continuous string.
Seeing Bai Qingyan raised his head with astonishment in his eyes, Liu hurriedly said, "Ah Bao doesn't know about this, does he? Speaking of which... this is not an honorable matter, it has something to do with the reputation of a girl from the Dong family. I never mentioned it to you either."
The eldest princess nodded, touched her mouth with a handkerchief, and said to Bai Qing: "Dong Tingfang, the concubine of your uncle's family, fell into the water and was rescued by the son of Fu's family. Later... probably for the sake of the girl's family's cleanliness." Yu, so the two families are engaged and have already exchanged Geng Tie."
The eldest princess's words stopped short, and Bai Qingyan understood what it meant.
Seeing that the eldest princess started talking, the second wife, Liu Shi, who had heard some secret news from other wives, couldn't hold back her words immediately, moved towards Bai Qingyan's direction, and said in a low voice: "Although the words are so Said, but the wives I listened to all said that after the girl from the Dong family went back, a white silk was put around her neck, saying that she was hugged by the son-in-law of the Fu family. Mrs. Song can't help it... That's why I invite Mrs. Shen, the servant of the Ministry of War, to Fu's house to say goodbye!"
The eldest princess cleared her throat, but Mrs. Liu was in high spirits, beaming with delight.
"There are also people who say that Fu's family's son, the concubine, is already discussing marriage with his uncle's cousin. What happened... There is no way to just push this marriage! Some people say that the scheming of the Dong family's concubine Too much, this concubine of the Dong family has always been close to the cousin of Fu's patriarch, Fang Dizi, who is discussing marriage. She gave up her face and went to marry the Fu family, but there are also people who say... this concubine daughter of the Dong family is a chaste one!"
"Second Madam..." Mother Jiang smiled and went forward to serve Liu Shi a bowl of porridge, and said with a smile, "Madam, if you don't use it, it will be cold."
Only then did Liu regain her senses, carefully looked at the frowning eldest princess, pressed the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, and said in embarrassment: "In short... there are few good things to say, and more bad things to say! Ah Bao, you are not married yet ...Be more careful, if you see that concubine today, you can live with your face, so as not to be affected by your reputation."
"Ah Bao made a note, thank you Second Aunt for reminding me." Bai Qingyan nodded to Liu Shi.
Mrs. Liu didn't dare to respond, she drank the porridge with her eyes downcast, and secretly sighed in her heart why she couldn't keep her mouth shut.
After breakfast, Mrs. Liu changed into plain clothes and trimmed up a little. At Sishi, she went out with Bai Qingyan and Bai Jinse to Fu Mansion.
·
In front of the gate of Fu Mansion, white silk lanterns with inscriptions on them have been replaced. The vermilion gates are open, and white silk is hung on the high eaves, corridors and front of the gate of Fu Mansion, fluttering in the wind.
The servants of Manfu have already changed into white clothes.
The servants standing outside the Zhumen's door waiting for guests probably knew that no guests would come to the door today, so they looked very lazy.
Now the masters of the Fu family are kneeling on both sides of the old matriarch Fu's coffin, some are mourning, some are weeping for the old matriarch Fu, some... are crying because of the uncertain future of their lives.
Fu Ruoxi's eldest sister-in-law was even more tightly clutching the clothes around her heart, crying and cursing Fu Ruoxi's wife, Luo Shi.
It is said that the husband and wife are one, and what Fu Ruoxi did has caused troubles all over the family. Luo Shi did not say a word to bear it for Fu Ruoxi, but covered the ears of the young son who was still crying because of the loss of his grandmother, and hung his red eyes. The son smiled and tried to comfort him, but the tears could not be stopped.
Far away, the servants of the Fu family's gate saw a green-draped carriage approaching slowly, and after seeing clearly that it was the Bai family's carriage, they hurriedly sent people in to report to the master, saying that it was the Bai family's arrival.
The cursing and crying in the mourning hall stopped immediately, Luo Shi straightened his back and looked towards the door, the servants said that it was the Bai family who came, but did not know if Princess Zhen Guo had come.
Before Old Madam Fu's body was brought back last night, Madam Fu's personal maid came back and delivered a message to Luo Shi, telling Luo Shi to trust Princess Zhen Guo.
Apart from that, not a single superfluous word was said.
Later, the body of Old Madam Fu was brought back, and the maidservant who had served Old Madam Fu for many years was shocked and kowtowed to Luo Shi, saying that she had no father or mother and was raised by Old Madam Fu. Now that Old Madam Fu has gone, She also wants to go...
If it wasn't for the quick-sighted and quick-handed maidservant beside Luo Shi, the personal maidservant of Mrs. Fu would be a corpse at this time.
Soon, Luo Shi saw Liu Shi, the second wife of the Bai family, dressed in plain clothes, followed by Princess Zhen Guo Bai Qingyan, and Bai Jinse, the seventh daughter of the Bai family, came in together.
Luo's tears suddenly burst into tears like a disconnected thread, feeling all kinds of feelings in his heart.
At the beginning, when the Bai family was in trouble, the mother-in-law, Mrs. Fu, originally wanted to go to express condolences, but she and her sister-in-law managed to stop Mrs. Fu. No noble family in the capital city ever went to express their condolences. ...His Majesty found out, and was afraid that it would bring disaster to Fu Ruoxi who was far away in the Anping camp.
But now, Fu Ruoxi wields a knife at the prince, and the guilt is inevitable, and the Fu family has come to an end where no one dares to come to express condolences, even the nephew of Mrs. coming.
Roche felt sad and guilty.
"It's Princess Zhenguo!" Fu Ruoxi's elder brother straightened his spine, lowered his eyes and knelt there and said in a low voice, "Kneel down!"
The words "Princess Zhen Guo" make the rest of the Fu family feel like they are facing a big enemy...
Fu Ruoxi's elder sister-in-law was full of arrogance and scolded Luo Shi just now, but now her throat was rolling, and she knelt by the side, not even daring to cry out.
