The Concubine in the Palace_The Feast of Masks [Complete] (60)

"I think this young man is a good one. He is honest and works as an errand in the palace. He is not too old either."

Sister Yan only glanced through the window and didn't see clearly what Zhou Sheng looked like. She couldn't help but whisper: "How promising he can be, and he's not just a servant for others."

Mrs. Li slapped her: "What's wrong with the servants? It also depends on where the servants are! Can a long-term worker from a small landowner's house compare with a servant from a prince's palace?! Besides, Zhou Sheng was just born this year How old you are, who can say what your future will be like. Do you think you are a virgin descending to earth with the Queen Mother of the Golden Phoenix Egg? If you miss this, just go to the countryside and marry an old widower and be my stepmother!"

Sister Yan didn't want to be a stepmother. She frowned and glanced at Mr. Li hesitantly: "What about this?"

Li nodded vigorously, "That's it! I'll see if I can keep him here for another day tomorrow, and then I'll ask your brother to help match him."

"Then Su Yaoniang won't do bad things on the side, right?" Sister Yan said with a roll of her eyes.

"She dares!" Mrs. Li slapped her thigh, "Don't forget that Xiaobao is still in our house."

Sister Yan nodded and snuggled next to Mrs. Li: "Mom, I think that Su Yao seems to be well-off. She brought a lot of good things when she came back this time. The things in the palace are definitely not bad. You can ask for two things for me, and I will do the same. It’s good to use as a dowry.”

Not mentioning this, Mrs. Li hadn't remembered yet, but she saw Su Yaoniang bringing two bags of things when she came back. Unfortunately, Zhou Sheng was with her at the time, and she was too embarrassed to ask her for it in person.

But in front of her daughter, she definitely couldn't reveal her thoughts. She poked Sister Yan's forehead with her finger, "You are a shallow-sighted girl. If you want a dowry, someone must marry you first!"

With that said, she left the west wing. When passing by the east wing, she saw a light on inside. She hesitated and resisted going over to eavesdrop.

The morning light is faint and dawn breaks in the sky.

Linyun County was like a giant beast gradually waking up from its deep sleep, and the sounds of people began to appear in the streets and alleys.

Huaishu Alley is still quiet here. From time to time, you can hear the sound of a door creaking, followed by the sound of wooden wheels running over bluestone slabs. This is a dung truck that collects dung water. It goes from house to house every morning to collect dung water.

Yao Niang had woken up a long time ago, but she couldn't bear to get up. Next to her lay Xiaobao, who was sleeping soundly.

Faintly hearing the rustling sound of sweeping the yard outside, Yao Niang kissed her son's head and got up to put on her clothes. When she was almost done, there was movement outside.

It wasn't until she heard a creaking sound and Yao Cheng's voice outside that Yao Niang opened the door and walked out.

Huiniang has also gotten up and is cleaning up the bed.

Brother Ming now lives in the main house with Mr. Li, and Brother Hong lives with his parents.

Brother Hong hasn't woken up yet and is sleeping on a small bed made for him alone. This bed was facing under the window, two meters square, and surrounded by high wooden fences.

Huiniang turned around and said to her sister: "Xiaobao hasn't woken up yet? Let him come over before he wakes up, so that when the adults turn around, the child will not fall off the bed when he wakes up."

Milkman, who is more than six months old, is at his naughty time. When he wakes up, he rolls over in his bed. If there is no railing to block him, he might have fallen into something like that. Huiniang takes care of three children by herself. Although Li usually helps look after the older brother Ming, she and Sister Yan are both lazy and don't want to do anything. Huiniang looked after three children and had to do housework, so she had no choice but to find a carpenter to make such a bed. When she had work in hand, she would put Brother Hong and Xiaobao in the bed.

Seeing such a bed, Yao Niang felt very sad. She nodded while holding back her sobs, went in and took Xiao Bao out and placed him next to Brother Hong.

"Okay, if any family has too many children, they all come here like this." Seeing that her sister was feeling a little uncomfortable, Hui Niang comforted her.

Yao Niang nodded and said: "Sister, I asked you to hire someone to help or buy a little girl. Why didn't you buy it?"

Huiniang sighed, "Do you think buying a little girl is just a matter of money? It's rare to find someone who can take care of children at the right age. Buying her at a young age is like buying another daughter for our family. You and I My brother-in-law can't do anything to ask a little girl to help with the work, let alone hire someone to help. It's hard to find someone who knows the basics, but he doesn't dare to use it if he doesn't know the basics. There's no way he can steal our children and sell them."

Yao Niang thought about it and said, "I will come back in half a year. But I think it is better to hire someone to come back, even if he can't help with the children and housework. What will happen in those two days? I don’t even care, it’s all pointed at you, so I won’t tire you out.”

Just as he was talking, Yao Cheng walked in with a smile: "Brother is so polite this week. He got up early in the morning to help clean our yard."

Only then did Yao Niang realize that the person who was out sweeping the yard early in the morning was Zhou Sheng.

"I think the brothers are pretty good this week, what do you think, Yaoyao?"

"Brother Zhou is a very nice person..."

Yao Niang told what happened on her way back this time, but Hui Niang was so shocked that she broke into a sweat, "These people are so lawless, they dare to rob civilian girls in broad daylight."

"It's probably not the first time this has happened, but with the Jin Prince's Palace sign there, no one in this area dares to stroke the tiger's beard without the sense of humor."

"It seems that there is no benefit for Yaoyao to go to the palace as an errand."

The three of them were talking when Brother Hong and Xiaobao woke up. After putting on clothes for the two children and washing their faces, Yao Niang and Hui Niang went to the kitchen to make breakfast, leaving Yao Cheng in the house to look after the children. During this period, Yao Niang was standing in the kitchen and could hear the heated conversation between Li and Zhou Sheng outside.

"Sister, what does she want to do?" Mrs. Li responded, saying that she would be attentive to anything, but nothing good would come from being attentive.

"What else could it be..."

Hui Niang took advantage of the situation and told Yao Niang what happened to Sister Yan.

Yao Niang was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear. This was really beyond her expectation. Did something like this happen in a previous life? But Yao Niang had never returned home in her previous life, so she naturally didn’t know the news about Sister Yan.

Thinking about it at this time, it can be regarded as evil being punished. The sigh that Yao Niang had been holding in her heart for two lifetimes suddenly disappeared, and she felt a lot more relaxed.

"So now she wants to make Brother Zhou and Sister Yan a couple?"

Huiniang glanced at her sister and didn't think she was stupid.

"This can't be done. Brother Zhou is a good man. You can't hurt him like this." Yao Niang immediately wanted to go out, but Hui Niang stopped her. "Okay, you think your brother Zhou is a fool. He won't do it." This mother and daughter were fooled.”

Yao Niang heard something from the words and said angrily: "Sister, what about my Brother Zhou and your Brother Zhou?"

Huiniang glanced at her sister with interest: "Zhou Sheng's eyes are just for you this time. Don't tell me that you didn't notice."

Yao Niang really didn't notice it. She just felt that Zhou Sheng treated her too attentively. She never expected that he would have such thoughts. I couldn't help but remember that when he came back, he asked himself if he had any intention of remarrying...

"I think this week's promotion is good. I also know your situation. Since I am still willing to stay with you and show your courtesy, it means that they don't care about your status as a married woman and you have a child."

Yao Niang said: "He hasn't married a wife yet, how could he want someone like me?"

Huiniang was unwilling to listen to this. She looked at her sister and said, "What kind of person is this? My Yaoyao is the best woman in the world and deserves to be treated sincerely by any man."

"sister……"

Huiniang patted her and said, "Okay, sister, you know what I said. It's not easy for a woman to live with a child in this world. Since someone is willing to share the burden with you, why don't you consider it? Sister also hopes that you can find someone in the future. Men, there are people who know the cold and the heat.”

Looking for a man?

Yaoniang fell into silence. She glanced at Zhou Sheng who was washing the car in the yard. Zhou Sheng happened to look over as well, and their eyes met. Seeing the joy in the other person's eyes, she lowered her head subconsciously, and for some reason she thought of Prince Jin.

In Prince Jin's Mansion, Chaohui Hall, Prince Jin received the third secret letter from Dark Eleven.

There were a few big words written on a narrow piece of paper——

The coachman stayed for another day, and his family wanted to help him get married.

Fucheng stood on the edge, wanting to stretch his neck to see.

But the key point is that he doesn't dare. At this moment, he wants to stick his head into his crotch.

After receiving the first secret letter from Dark Eleven from His Highness, I felt chills all over my body. It was already freezing now, and Fucheng didn't want to get involved and ask for trouble.

King Jin suddenly stood up and walked out: "Prepare your horse!"

Fucheng was choked. Where are you planning to go? Then he realized, His Highness must be looking for Nurse Su, right?

Mrs. Li forcefully pulled Zhou Sheng to let him stay at Yao's house for one more day. For this reason, she even moved out her elder status, so Zhou Sheng could only agree.

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Mrs. Li happily went to find her son. Who would have thought that she would hit a snag with Yao Cheng.

"Mom, I advise you to give up this idea. She has a clean family background and a good status, so why should she marry a sister like Yan? Besides, I don't want you to know that Zhou Sheng and Hui Niang are treated like brothers-in-law. , I came here for Yaoyao, not for Sister Yan. Don’t tell me that Sister Yan has taken a liking to Zhou Sheng again. Why does Sister Yan have to kick every man who likes Yaoyao? . Don’t say I didn’t warn her. If she causes trouble again this time, I will send her to the Sister’s Temple and let her be my sister-in-law!”

I really can't blame Yao Cheng for speaking harshly, but he is already annoyed to death by his mother and his sister. It's just Li, she's his mother, he can't take her lightly, but he doesn't have a good impression of Sister Yan.
