Chapter 288 Poor Man
Su Yiqing returned to the bedroom and felt a little powerless. How should we solve this problem now? We will get married in three days. Gao made this happen, and he couldn't force Liu'er to throw him over, but if it didn't work? What should Liu'er do?
At this time, Madam Qing came back and said, "Princess, I said that this kind of country woman is not polite but ungrateful, and she will say anything. You don't have to pay attention to her. The marriage has been settled. She agreed to it earlier. Even in the countryside, it is not easy to repent. There is no need to worry about it. Tomorrow, let someone who is polite and talk about her. This kind of person is just bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. Seeing that you are kind, you will talk nonsense and scare a few words to ensure that she admits her mistake."
"Forget it, the forced melon is not sweet. It's okay for me to press her to accept this daughter-in-law. Only Liu'er is innocent and wanted to do a good thing. But like this..." Su Yiqing frowned slightly, really annoyed.
Madam Qing said, "The princess is golden and jade-like, how can you take back your words easily? Let's talk to Liu'er, and then I'll find a man outside to find out about Fan Juren's words. If Liu'er is willing to marry, then Fan Juren is willing to marry him. Don't worry about Gao's words. I think Fan Juren will not be as unaware as his mother."
Su Yiqing thought that this was indeed more appropriate, so she said, "Then nanny, let's inquire."
After Lian Yufeng came back, seeing that she was depressed, he came over to ask what was wrong.
Su Yiqing told him what happened today.
Lian Yufeng suddenly smiled, "I just said you are worried. Just as I said, it's all right to match the same conditions, and I'll ask what they mean. Most of these people are not greedy. When they get sweet pears, they want to change to the same watermelon, endlessly. Don't ask what Fan Juren means. I know that he is soft-hearted, and he listens to everything. If you ask, it's useless to ask Gao, you're too smart. You want to take advantage of any advantage, otherwise with his martial arts and the affection of his dead father, why don't I keep him by my side?"
Su Yiqing frowned: "Did you know that Juren Fan is not very good?"
Even Yufeng disagreed: "You can't say it's not good, a man, he is a little weak-hearted and weak-hearted, but he can't say it's a bad habit. It's just that, his mother Gao. A country woman is just like that, and she's a little clever. She's a little bit difficult for her clan members to come to the palace for help. She also knows that relying on the palace will help her son's future, but she can't expect her to understand the righteousness too deeply, nor can she say that she's greedy like this. The mother and son can only be said to be ordinary families.
You just stuff a girl over. They dare not to accept it. They may dislike it, but it will not be abusive or even assassination. They don’t have the courage. As for whether they will have three wives and four concubines in the future, no one can say. It is not difficult for you to put a smarter person to know how to pull some tiger skin from time to time to overwhelm a village woman like Gao. Even if you are a little stupid, you will only be a little angry. It will be better to survive for a few years of children. But the premise is that this woman has to be strong in her belly. After all, it is better to be unfilial to have three no descendants."
Hearing that there are three words of unfilial piety and no queen is the biggest, Su Yiqing's heart moved and secretly observed Lian Yufeng's expression. He saw that his expression was normal and there was no taboo. He couldn't help but think of his guess. He wanted to ask, but he really couldn't ask. Think about it and let it go.
Even Yufeng thought she was still upset about the maid's marriage, so he comforted her softly for a few words, which made her feel a little embarrassed. It was already difficult for a man to be outside. He also worried about these trivial matters when he returned home, and even asked him to coax her. She, the princess, was really dereliction of duty. When she thought about this, she forced herself to be energetic and had some relaxed and happy conversations.
But how to say it? Although the two have known each other for a long time, they have been together for a short time and cannot understand each other's interests and hobbies. There are two different circles inside and outside the government. It is really difficult to have a common topic. At this moment, the little maid asked the prince and the princess if they need to have a meal? Only then did she get rid of her circumstance, have dinner together, and chatting about food is the safest topic...
After dinner, Lian Yufeng took out a post saying that it was the grandson of Prince Wen County, and the whole palace invited them to come over to have the full moon wine.
Su Yiqing originally wanted to say whether she could not go, but when she saw Lian Yufeng's expression, she said that it was right. "It happened that I have been married for so long and I haven't been out yet. Then I will dress neatly and shake the princess's majesty, so that everyone who underestimated me a few days ago will see how good I am now."
This kind of flaunting words made Lian Yufeng laugh, embrace Su Yiqing's slender waist, and said in a doting way: "Yes, my princess, who dares to show your face at that time? Just hit it on the spot, and have a promising husband to support it. Except for the emperor and the empress in the palace, no one has to give you any face."
It is an excuse for making a false statement, but because of Lian Yufeng's words, Su Yiqing's heart was warm and she couldn't help but lean in his arms. At this time, silence is better than sound.
The couple was warming up at night. When the next morning, Su Yiqing felt refreshed. This was a new day. Everything should start over and keep a good mood until the end.
Lian Yufeng was about to go to the morning court, but he hurried away without breakfast. Su Yiqing ate alone. After eating, he took advantage of the thick fog in the morning and the air was freshest and he went to the garden for a walk, strolling among the flowers and breathing fresh air.
Because I wanted to take it alone, I only had the green vine and the eels followed from afar.
After walking for a while, I heard the steps behind me. Turning around, Madam Qing trotted and hurried over.
Madam Qing is old and trots for a few steps before breathing. After bowing her knees, she said, "Report to Princess, Liu'er said she wants to see you. Do you see?"
"What's going on?" Su Yiqing looked at Aunt Qing, but she didn't have much emotion in her eyes, so she seemed a little cold.
Madam Qing avoided her eyes and lowered her head and said, "Yesterday, I found Fan Juren and said that marriage is all based on their parents. I listened to Gao. I thought, since Gao is so disliked, then forget it, the maids in the royal palace are still worried about not being able to get married? It forced the princess to destroy the princess' kindness. Let them get married by themselves. Liu'er suffered some grievances, give some compensation or arrange a more relaxed errand. She also has the responsibility for this matter. She picked Gao Zhipan and took a look. Who would have thought that I would let someone give Gao's Scripture.
After coming back, before he could sit firmly, Gao asked someone to ask for a meeting again, and said a lot of good things, saying that he was fooled by lard and was deceived. He shouldn't criticize Miss Liu'er. He also said something wrong. Seeing that she was sincere, the old slave felt that it was better to have less than anything else. He was about to get married in three days. Suddenly, it was not good for Liu'er, so he agreed to her. But unexpectedly, Liu'er heard the news early this morning, and found Lao slave and said he wanted to see the princess. She refused to marry the princess Fan. He said she wanted to see the princess. Look?"
Su Yiqing said lightly: "Let her come over, I'll hear what she says."
As Su Yiqing said that, she walked towards the small pavilion next to her. Lu Teng and the little maid quickly wiped the stone chairs of the small pavilion first, then laid a small cushion, and then asked Su Yiqing to sit down. After a while, Madam Qing led the little maid named Liu'er in.
Liu'er entered the pavilion, knelt down and kowtowed to Su Yiqing. Su Yiqing said, "Get up and talk."
Liu'er refused to get up and said, "I am used to kneeling in front of others. When I stand up, my legs are weak. The princess will let me kneel down and talk."
Seeing Liu'er saying pitiful, Su Yiqing couldn't help but sigh, no longer force her, and said, "I understand your thoughts. No one feels good when I hear this kind of news, but it's no big deal. Who doesn't have a lot of bad things in their family? Fan Juren's mother is somewhat powerful, but it's not a big deal. She turned around and asked Madam Qing to say a few words to her and asked her to promise not to make things difficult for you in the future. This marriage has spread all over the house. If this is gone, it will be the most disadvantage for the girl's family."
Liu'er cried and said, "Please beg the princess for kindness. I know that my status is low. I should do whatever my master says, but I... I have been disliked by my parents since I was a child. I was sold to a man with my sister at the age of six. But even I have despised me. I originally wanted my sister and said that I was not good-looking. If my parents had not persuaded me, I would either have two or not give one. I barely accepted me. After entering the city, my sister's sister was quickly picked up and bought, leaving only me. There were a few people around me, but I still couldn't sell it. I stayed in the man with half a year.
I was treated as a bonus and sold into the royal palace. I was afraid that people would dislike me. Since I entered the palace, other sisters were reluctant to do dirty work, for fear that they would be disliked. This time, I heard that my sisters were not willing to marry outside the palace. I thought that since this is the case, it was my servant's fault. When I was picking people, I was confused for a while. I forgot my identity and actually chose the juren with the highest status. I was wrong... But I really didn't want to marry someone who despised me. I beg the princess to be kind to me. I just want the princess to marry me. A lame fool, as long as I don't dislike me, I am willing."
Su Yiqing couldn't help but be moved and looked at Liu'er carefully. She had thick eyebrows and big eyes, which was not beautiful, but she was not ugly. She only looked thicker and thicker, but not in line with the public's aesthetics. She was also an ordinary woman, but she was so disgusted by everyone.
Madam Qing was sad when she heard the scene and wiped her eyes and said, "Report to the princess, it was about the year when the famine was around ten years ago. She sold a lot of children, especially girls. She gave away many free gifts but no one wanted them. Naturally, she only picked the ones that looked good."
Those who are slaves and maids, except for having children, their parents are slaves from wealthy families and their lives are slightly better, those who buy them from outside are not full of bitterness and a sad past that makes people feel sad. Who will sell their children and daughters until they can’t survive? Liu'er’s life experience sounds pitiful, but it is just the most common portrayal of maids. (To be continued.
