Three hundred and ninetieth IX Different treatment
"That's it, my husband." Meng Yan saw that Zhou Juren's expression was still a little confused, and said again: "It will cost a lot of money to ask the escort team. Didn't you say last time that you should not be too extravagant when you live at home?"
Juren Zhou had nothing to say. The Meng family was much higher than their family. His wife was a legitimate lady and was very particular about clothing. He was afraid that his wife would live too extravagantly, so he mentioned a little. He thought that his wife wanted to save some money for him as the official family, so he could only nod.
In the middle of the night, Zhou Juren tossed and turned. After all, he was not used to the sudden existence of someone around him, especially when he was worried. In order to wake up his beautiful wife, he felt as if he got up and went to the study to read.
As soon as we got together, we heard the person next to the pillow sigh: "Honey, can't you sleep, either?"
Zhou Juren was stunned for a moment and said to herself that she was awake too, and said, "I feel a little bored... I'm afraid of clamoring you."
He was also a meticulous person. He noticed that one of his wife's words was also a word. If he didn't have this word, he could just say that he was afraid of quarreling at her, so he had to go to the study to read books, etc., but since they couldn't sleep with each other, he couldn't afford to leave his newlywed wife alone, who was also unable to sleep.
Meng Yan half-sitted up and asked with her hazy eyes, "My husband, can you talk to me?"
Juren Zhou nodded.
Meng Yan smiled happily, and the smile disappeared in an instant. She sighed softly and said, "Honey, I can't sleep because I remember my sister."
"Yeah!" Zhou Juren couldn't help but feel a little more energetic when he heard Meng Yan mention this sister.
Meng Yan said: "In the evening, I came back from Dingwang Mansion and told you that my sister is very good, but it is not. I just don't know what to say... Two palace maids were sent to the palace and said they were serving my sister and brother-in-law."
"Isn't that great? Most of the palace maids in the palace serve the emperor and the harem ladies. Of course, they know how to serve people than other maids." Zhou Juren didn't know much about the winding paths inside. The palace was a very faraway place for him, and he didn't know much about the battles inside.
Meng Yan smiled bitterly, "Sister is pregnant now. If you really want to be considerate of your sister, you should send a young and experienced nanny to you. Instead of a beautiful palace maid who is younger than your sister and has never given birth to you."
Juren Zhou was not stupid. After understanding Meng Yan's words, it turned out that the palace was given a beauty from the prince, and he immediately didn't know how to comfort Meng Yan.
Meng Yan said to herself: "Although my second sister and I are sisters, they are not close. When I was not yet sensible, my second sister was sent to the countryside... I didn't come back until more than a year ago. At that time, I was still in the boudoir school and had food and accommodation among the ladies. After I came back, I found out that there was an older sister in the family who was about to marry into a high school. To be honest, I was quite unhappy at that time... I was the only one of my legitimate ladies in the family, but now I suddenly had a more noble status... The maid and the old lady dared not say anything. But they rushed to curry favor with the second sister, and I felt very uncomfortable for a while."
Zhou Juren was silent. He didn't know how to talk. He was a big man and did not know how to comfort women, not to mention that Meng Yan was just trivial matters. In his opinion, no matter what this Princess Ding was, he would be about to get married after all, and it would not affect Meng Yan much. If he endured it, he would pass.
"Of course, I'm thinking about it later." Meng Yan paused for a long time, but didn't see Zhou Juren talking, and still said to herself, "It's just that she still has no close relationship with her second sister. She doesn't take the initiative to come to find me, and I don't take the initiative to look for her. So until she got married, I almost never entered the Dingwang Mansion after getting married... Wealth is easy to make people dazzle. I'm afraid that after I go, I will be envious and jealous, and even more afraid that people will say they are flattering their sisters and brother-in-law."
"After all, they are sisters, and they always have to take care of each other." Zhou Juren whispered, with a faint expression on his face.
"Yes! Just say that, my mother said that most of the people who come to the palace are for the advantage of the situation." Meng Yan said, looking at Zhou Juren, "The most obvious thing is Mr. Quan San. He wants to give away beauty and do business under the name of in-laws. The door of the palace is not easy to enter, so he just stares at our house and never stops for a moment."
Juren Zhou's expression froze immediately.
Seeing this, Meng Yan showed an expression of saying the wrong thing and said, "Mr., you don't have to worry too much about Sister Caier. After all, Grandpa Quan San is just a grandpa, and there is also a grandpa, mother-in-law, and I have never seen Aunt Quan's aunt before. Grandpa Quan is an extremely kind old man."
Juren Zhou was silent again.
"My husband, look at me, I'm talking about something unhappy, and you have to worry too." Meng Yan said apologetically and said quietly, "I just feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. Her fate was bumpy when she was a child. Now... I just hope my brother-in-law can cherish her more."
"Yes." Zhou Juren comforted him dryly.
After sitting for a while, the couple went to bed.
The next morning, just dawn, and Juren Zhou was still asleep, Meng Yan quietly got up and asked the maid to pack his luggage, prepare dry food, etc. Then he loaded the luggage, and then asked the servant to send it to the backyard of the man named Shi's house, and then sent it with their luggage together, and then took the gift carriage outside the city first, so as not to be congested when a large number of people and the carriage left the city together.
When Juren Zhou got up, he had breakfast.
Meng Yan had already done everything, and Juren Zhou just had to clean up the books he read on weekdays.
After Zhou Juren finished packing his luggage, Ping's mother said that the Shi family's car was already waiting outside the city.
Meng Yan asked Zhou Juren: "My husband, it's still early, but we are following other people's convoys. Should we wait outside the city first?"
Zhou Juren thought about it and they should indeed wait outside the city first. When the Shi family arrived, they would not let others wait for him in reverse. Then he nodded.
After staying on the carriage, Zhou Juren felt a little surprised.
The carriages that Meng Yan chose were all very simple, but they were all green cloth-panged carriages, without any decoration.
Zhou Juren nodded secretly. His wife was a real person. She didn't make those fancy things. Unlike the ladies he occasionally saw, she was picky about a teacup pattern and a veil. The more she was, the more particular she was. Therefore, he had a little bit of this meaning in marrying a daughter of a general. He was a little afraid of those girls with a scholarly family who were too particular.
Others think that he came from a scholarly family and should marry a girl of equal status, but they don’t know that he was at his grandfather’s house before he was eight years old. His grandfather was doing business, and merchants didn’t pay much attention to these things.
When we arrived outside the city, the people from the Shi family came. Meng Yan and Mrs. Shi met several times. The women greeted each other, and the men also said a few words of slightestness and set off.
The day before, when the two families were resting at the Guanyi Station, the female family could chat and the men could also drink some wine. Because they had only been traveling for half a day, but on the second day, when the female family was resting, they were no longer as energetic as chatting.
Although I ate the loess all the way, I walked slowly. I was very bumpy all the way. I was so arrogant that I could withstand this bump when I walked a few steps. Everyone complained, especially the little girl from the Shi family. I had never gone far away in my life, and I had never suffered such hardship. After getting off the carriage, my face was blue and purple, and I was so confused that I couldn't eat anything.
At this time, Juren Zhou once again was glad that he married a daughter of a general. Meng Yan could not dance with swords and sticks, but she still could ride a horse. She would not be so embarrassed when she rode a carriage and then rode a horse.
Even so, I had to walk for four and a half days in two days.
Juren Zhou was also glad that he set out one day in advance, otherwise he would leave by himself, taking care of the female family slowly, when would he get home? It would delay the worship of his mentor.
Because he came back in the name of worshiping his mentor, he asked the Shi family to take a while, but he couldn't invite them to sit and rest at home. Zhou Juren felt sorry. Fortunately, the local county magistrate offended Mr. Shi and took office in the provincial capital next door. Although he didn't know him, he also used the Zhou family's connection to invite the Shi family to live in the county government and have a rest.
Meng Yan only breathed a sigh of relief when she arrived at the Zhou family. Finally, her heart could be settled. Even if there was something wrong, her father-in-law and his clan members would persuade her.
Previously, Zhou Juren's classmate looked for Zhou Juren. She speculated that it was nothing more than that friend or classmate, or even their relative, who was involved in some case. She hoped to ask Prince Ding to come forward through the in-laws of the Zhou family and the Ding Prince's Mansion.
It’s not that she was cruel and reluctant to save her, but from Ping'an’s words, her husband was unaware of this matter. It’s hard to say whether he was wronged or not. Why did he rashly ask Prince Ding to come forward? The second sister is already very annoyed, and she can’t harass the second sister who is full of belly for someone who is not close to him. In addition, she believes that even if the husband gives his face and asks, Prince Ding will not pay attention. He has not even shown up in their marriage, so how could he give too much face? I’m afraid that the husband will not even see Prince Ding’s face.
Because of this, Meng Yan felt that she had escaped a disaster and became more and more respectful as a wife in the Zhou family. She was the same for her elders or sister-in-law who were about the same age. She must show her gentle and dignified side in front of others. This move won a lot of praise, even if some ladies and ladies with good knowledge in their own books want to pick on her knowledge.
Because she stated from the beginning that she was born in a military general family and had poor knowledge, she should learn from all the aunts, aunts, and her humble attitude makes people not make mistakes.
This was taught by Ping's mother. In fact, she has studied quite a lot, learned from her serious boudoir, and is also smart. Compared with these wives and ladies from the scholarly family, she is considered to be average. But people are not wrong at all when they are humble. What's more, even if these scholars are respectful to her on the surface, they will still be a little contempt in their hearts. They dare not say anything in front of them. They must discuss behind their backs, breaking up what she says word by word to study. Now they show weakness first. On the surface, they don't have much to discuss, so there is nothing to discuss behind them.
It’s not as difficult as she imagined to be pretending. Anyway, she won’t stay in the Zhou clan for too long. After gaining a foothold, many things don’t matter.
...
I guess Meng Yan was careful, but Su Yiqing on the other end was a little careless.
Madam Qing was always worried that she was influenced by the two palace maids, but after watching for a few days, she was not at all and she still did whatever she should do.
Even when the two palace maids said they wanted to come to pay her respects, she did not avoid Ning Ya'er as she did. She agreed four or five times and once or twice.
Every time I asked An, I pretended to be tired and asked them to retreat. I also asked Madam Qing to secretly apologize, and asked the two palace maids to care about their well-being and treat them as masters.
Madam Qing is very powerful, but people of power also have the benefits of people of power. She can teach Ning Ya'er a lesson again and again, but the two palace maids with harem backgrounds are also like slaves, and they can keep their figure very low.
After doing enough work, there is nothing to say.
Two palace maids are named Yue'e and Yuejiao. They are both beautiful girls with a beautiful appearance. They are low-key and difficult to be attracted by the emperor. They thought they would have to live in the palace until they are old and old. If they are lucky, they can be released from the palace when they are old. If they are not lucky, they will die in a corner of the palace and will never see the world outside the palace again in their lifetime.
Unexpectedly, suddenly, joy came from the sky, and Concubine Yang sent them to Princess Ding, saying that they were asking them to serve Princes Ding and Princess Ding.
This made them overjoyed. What was even more happy was that they thought that Yang Fei would give them some explanations to send them into the mansion, such as secretly paying attention to King Ding's every move to please King Ding, and even having a darker purpose... But obviously they were thinking too much. Concubine Yang had no extra explanations before entering the mansion, and no one sneaked in to convey anything after entering the mansion. The people in Prince Ding's mansion were very nice to them, and the princess looked quite kind.
Everything was like a dream, and Yue'e thought it would be great if she could continue like this.
However, Yue Jiao had other ideas. After the initial uneasiness, she couldn't help but think about her future. The Ding Palace is stronger than the palace, but it is also as deep as the sea.
What will she do in the future? Now, the princess is a little polite to them because they are from the palace. What will happen in the future? After the princess gives birth, how will she take them after the limelight comes to her?
Will you deal with them then?
After a year or two, how could Concubine Yang remember them? No one cares about whether they are alive or alive. There is actually no big difference between a corner of the palace and a corner of the Ding Palace.
