5th Story 7
Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen looked at each other, and their hearts were full of resentment at the natural voice of their first-born mother. When they looked at the three first-born brothers, the eldest brother had a look of anticipation, the second brother had an innocent face, and the third brother had a face of a satisfaction as he looked at Shu Jiaren.
Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen walked side by side, and Fang Jingrong supported Shu Jiaren with a gentle face behind him, “Slow down, beauty! Be careful of the steps.”
Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen stepped aside, Shu Jiaren remembered something, and said gently, “Fourth brother , Fifth brother, I have some thoughts on the matter just now. Although I am not very clear about the outside world, but I heard from my uncle before, no, I heard from my father that among the several princes, only the seventh prince has the lowest status, and the biological mother is a palace maid. After giving birth to the seventh prince, he is not as precious as his mother, and she is only a noble person until death. The seventh prince is only a little transparent among the princes, and should not be valued by the saints. The first wife he married is only a poor Hanlin daughter , the seventh prince has neither the support of his mother nor his wife. I thought, the icing on the cake is better than giving money in the snow. Fourth brother and fifth brother, do you think so?”
After speaking, Shu Jiaren smiled gently and was helped by Fang Jingrong away. .
Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen had a gloomy expression on their faces, and it was enough for their eldest mother to instruct them. Why would Shu Jiaren dare to instruct them like this. What does she know? Dare to point fingers here! They have already investigated what she said!
What charcoal in the snow? A person like the seventh prince is more sensitive and suspicious, and the more difficult it is to approach. You are so plain and unreasonable, do you think the seventh prince will not doubt it? Moreover, the Seventh Prince Concubine already had an advantage. Although she came from a humble family background, her mother was the daughter of a general’s family. Legend has it that the Seventh Prince Concubine was extremely powerful when she was young. Because of the bravery of the seventh prince concubine, she made a few turns for the seventh prince. It is said that the relationship between husband and wife is very good. And the seventh prince concubine manages the concubines in the backyard just like the soldiers in the army. They don’t reason with you, and they rely on force to suppress them. Even if the third sister is full of heart and eyes, she will not be able to get her favor in the hands of an unreasonable person like the seventh prince concubine. Whimsical is so amazing!
“Fourth brother, are we really going to contact the seventh prince?” Fang Jingwen asked.
Fang Jinghe looked gloomy, he raised his hand and signaled Fang Jingwen not to speak for now. The two continued to walk forward and walked into the Huxin Pavilion before saying, “Of course not! Fifth brother, I’ve had enough. It’s okay if mother to assign us. When will she be able to point fingers at us confidently? Even if she really pushes Sanmei to that position, who do you think will benefit? Is it you and me? Obviously impossible. Because of our status as concubines, the third sister has always looked down on us. Even if there is a day, the only ones who will benefit will be the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother. The two of us can only do things, but we can’t enjoy happiness. I’m not reconciled!”
Fang Jingwen gave Fang Jinghe a deep look, “Fourth brother, what do you mean?”
“The eldest sister and the second sister have already left the cabinet, and the aunt is long gone. Hmph, if my father is still here, I’ll look for father’s sake, we can’t do anything. But now why should we die for their benefit, they don’t have to do anything, just talk and enjoy their achievements! I’m not reconciled!” Fang Jinghe took a deep breath and said. “Besides, the current situation is very unfavorable for the Fang family. If there is the support of the Xiao family, it will be a matter of time before the Fang family returns to the court. Even if they secretly find another wise master, they will get twice the result with half the effort. It’s a pity that the third brother is ruined by this idiot. Now, it is even harder to restore the former glory. Fifth brother, to be honest, if it was purely for the Fang family and for the sake of my father, I would do anything but now, everything we have worked hard has only fulfilled those idiots. , I don’t want to!”
Fang Jingwen stood up, “Fourth brother, what you said is exactly what I thought. I don’t want it either. As early as my mother proposed to let third brother marry Xiao’s daughter, I didn’t want to. It is obvious that you and I are the most capable of the brothers. No matter who you or I marry the daughter of the Xiao family, we will hold her firmly in the palm of our hand. Even if we spend a lifetime, we will weave a seamless and perfect world for her. It’s a pity, but for her own selfish desire, mother gave this opportunity to the third brother, that idiot who can’t walk after seeing Shu Jiaren! Fourth brother, you can understand, I am very happy. Fourth brother, what should we do?”
Fang Jing and Xie Mei smiled, “Of course we left the capital with what we deserved, and we go overseas, where the sky is high and the sea is vast and free. How wonderful!”
“But the eldest sister and the second sister?” Fang Jingwen hesitated. If they leave, it is inevitable that the first mother and first brother will take the fire on the younger sister.
“The eldest sister went to the southwest with her husband’s family, and the second sister’s family moved back to their hometown in the northwest. The brothers-in-law are very good to the younger sister, and the Fang family’s hands are not that long!” Fang Jinghe sneered, when the first mother chose this marriage as an elder for the younger sister and the second younger sister. They personally inspected it, they knew that the both of the brother-in-law and the brother-in-law’s family were all good, but the family was poor and the conditions were a bit more difficult to make out.
“Okay, fourth brother, I will listen to you. Just, should we send a letter to the eldest sister and the second sister, so that they can be careful.” Fang Jingwen said.
“Okay, you can write a letter and leave the rest to me. After three months, we will leave.” Fang Jinghe said.
Fang Jingwen nodded. The two brothers were the deepest members of the Fang family. After making up their minds, they kept pretending that nothing had happened, and even secretly approached the seventh prince according to Shu Jiaren’s suggestion. Wang Shi and Shu Jiaren were happy to see it.
“Sister, what do you care about the Fang family? Their family can’t make any big waves!” Xiao Si asked curiously.
“Don’t take it lightly. A gentleman is easy to guard against villains, but the Fang family’s actions are downright villains. Such people, when things go wrong, never admit that it is their own fault, and always blame others for the fault. Obviously, now our Xiao family is the villain in their eyes. If one day, what they planned to do comes true, the Fang family will gain momentum, and then the unlucky family will be our Xiao family first. Brothers, it is better to pay attention to it. “Li Yueran said seriously.
“Well said!” Cheng Nuo walked in while applauding, “Don’t worry, I have sent someone to watch the Fang family. Among the Fang family brothers, the most important thing is Lao Sifang Jinghe and Lao Wufang Jingwen. The two are the brains of the Fang family. But at present, these two people have different opinions. The other few, Fang Jingrui is incompetent, Fang Jingqian is playful, and Fang Jingrong is an idiot. His wife, Shu Jiaren, is smarter than him. It’s nothing to worry about. “
Xiao Yi stood up, “Your Highness is here, and you are welcome.” Then he blamed the butler who was following behind Prince Rong. The butler said that he was helpless too. He is the Prince and the future uncle. If I If you offend the lord, what will the lord do to the eldest lady in the future?
Cheng Nuo said, Uncle Steward, your face is not that big!
“I’ve been running around in recent years and got a lot of good things. I thought you were bored at home, so I brought it here for you to enjoy. Come and bring the things up.” Cheng Nuo said with a smile.
With Cheng Nuo’s voice, things were brought in in an endless stream as soon as they were lifted, and the flower hall was filled to the brim in a short time, and most of the yard even outside the yard.
The Xiao family stared at everything in front of them in stunned eyes. Did Prince Rong empty all the private treasuries of the palace?
Li Yueran didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “My lord, what are you doing?”
Cheng Nuo also thought it was too much, he patted his head, “Oh, I’m so confused. It’s the same when you pass the door and appreciate it slowly. .But everything has been moved in, so just accept it! Come and see, these are South Sea pearls, they are all pink, the size of cherries, these are enough for you to string a bead curtain, Didn’t you say that you liked the bead curtain on Youmeng? This one is much prettier than that one. And this one is coral, this is a set of mats made of jade, you are afraid of heat, and there is no such thing here , hehe, this is a good sleep, by the way, I’m looking for someone to study whether I can make a fan, and then you can relax.”
Over there, Cheng Nuo surrounded Li Yueran attentively. Here, the four brothers of the Xiao family hugged their chests and watched. Xiao Er smiled and said, “My family’s Wen’er is really good-natured. Prince Rong’s brain is not good, and Wen’er is not angry.”
“Yes, although this Prince Rong’s brain is not very good, he is very good to Wen’er. He has a good eye. “Xiao Shan also said.
Although the Xiao brothers think Prince Rong’s words are a bit weird, they can still trust their sister. They will not doubt their sister, but they can only doubt whether Prince Rong is mentally ill, otherwise why he is so weird. how to explain with his behavior!?.
Li Yueran looked at Cheng Nuo with a smile, and noticed the increasingly impatient expressions of several older brothers, and said with a smile: “Okay, it’s almost done, it’s not like it used to be, etiquette can kill people. Go back quickly, there are still ten days, can you wait?”
Cheng Nuo also knew this, and felt a little regretful, “Okay, then I will go back to prepare the dowry first, don’t worry, I will be beautifully to come and marry you!” After speaking, Cheng Nuoyi reluctantly left.
Mrs. Li was taking her four daughters-in-law to rearrange her daughter’s dowry to marry as the princess. Naturally, the dowry had to be adjusted accordingly. When she got the news, she rushed over in a hurry. “Didn’t you say that the prince is here? What about the people? Oh, I said it’s only been ten days since the big wedding, how can you let the prince come in at this time! You don’t stop him!.”
Li Yueran smiled: ” Mother, don’t worry, I have agreed with the lord that he will not come again.”
Mrs. Li nodded and looked at these things again, “Then what should I do with these things?”
Xiao Yi said with a smile, “The lord said it was for my sister. For the entertainment, it will be included in the dowry.”
