Chapter 542 Too impatient

Mo'er was a little dissatisfied with Ru Niang's perfunctory behavior.

Some of her inertial thinking in the past have not changed. Before, she was in the Wei family because her parents were dowry by Mrs. Wei, and she was the most favored maid around the eldest lady, named Maid. In fact, among the young girls in the mansion, her status was second only to that of the legitimate ladies.

Ru Niang, the illegitimate ladies, had to be shorter when they saw her, and were often ordered by them, such as their maids, to share some needlework and threading.

Ru Niang has a good temper and looks cowardly, so she doesn't take it seriously. Therefore, even when she arrives at the Ding Palace, there is no one around her to support her. Ru Niang is now her direct master, but because of Ru Niang's good temper, she feels that Ru Niang is still the concubine's lady who was timid and could be ordered by her before.

Therefore, she was respectful on the surface, but still looked down on Ru Niang in her heart. In her heart, Madam Wei was her real master. Just listen to Madam Wei's instructions. As for Ru Niang, she still had to listen to Madam Wei.

Before coming, Mrs. Wei and others had instructed her to help Ru Niang be favored and sit in the position of the concubine. As long as Ru Niang can be favored, the Wei family will do their best to help her to the position of the concubine.

Not everyone can sit in the position of the concubine in the royal palace. Without the support of her parents, no matter how much the prince likes her, she cannot ask for a title at will. No matter how powerful a woman is, she still needs to have the support of her parents. If she forgets this, she will remind her more.

Princess Ding is an example. No one in Manyan City knows that Princess Ding was abandoned by her family in the countryside for many years and ignored her. Even the marriage was almost delayed. It is conceivable that the relationship between the princess and her parents' family is still relied on her parents' family and supported her parents' family. Without the support of her family, she would not be able to sit steadily as a princess.

Mrs. Wei was quite disdainful when she mentioned Princess Ding's origin. Ru Niang was also a concubine's daughter, but the Wei family was a noble family. She was a hundred times stronger than the Meng family, a military general family that suddenly broke out. In terms of origin, Ru Niang was taller than Princess Ding.

Meng Ye, the father of Princess Ding, was seized from military power and became an inequality civil servant, but he was able to transform himself into a celebrity in the court in just a short time and be promoted to three levels in a row.

Whoever has a discerning eye knows that this is all the support of King Ding.

Otherwise, there are so many capable ministers in the court, why can't others encounter such good things?

Meng can also get up in just over a year. His master is well-educated, so he is naturally more capable than Meng. It just lacks a little chance. If he has the chance, his master may be able to take the position of prime minister or get the lost title back.

Mrs. Wei now put all her hopes on Ru Niang, hoping that Ru Niang would be favored and pulled her mother's family. In addition, Mrs. Wei also hinted at Mo'er. She looks good and likes her. As a maid, it is impossible to be a concubine. But she can also be a concubine and a wife. If she can seize the opportunity and be favored, it would be even more amazing to have a man and a half woman.

Ru Niang is a lonely person. If there are more people supporting each other, it would be even better. The competition for favor also requires more people and great power. Look at the concubines in the mansion, don’t they often collude secretly and exclude others?

Even the concubines in the palace, once they are favored, they often come to the palace with their parents' sisters together in order to take care of each other.

Mo'er was confused by the big cake painted by Mrs. Wei, and she thought about being favored, and then she became the best in the sky.

When I came to this Dingwang Mansion, although I was only a corner of the side courtyard, and the place was remote and I could not walk around at will, Dingwang Mansion was Dingwang Mansion, which was not comparable to other places. This small courtyard alone was more spacious than the main courtyard where the wife of the Wei family lived. The equipment inside was even more exquisite and unique, and they were all good things that could not be enjoyed in the Wei family.

This is still the case when Ru Niang was neglected and suppressed. If Ru Niang was favored, she would enjoy the kind of wealth and glory. Mo'er, who lives in a corner of the Dingwang Mansion, could not imagine it.

How can one not be longing for this rich and noble land and become the master of the world's top luxury? Even if Mrs. Wei said before, Mo'er will make progress. Most of the dowry maids of the young lady must become mates, and if she can give birth to a man and a woman, she can become a concubine.

The prince's son, even if he is a maid and concubine, cannot be granted the title of a prince, at least he is a marquis and uncle, and he is hundreds of times stronger than the Wei family.

Thinking that the Wei family might have to rely on her in the future, Mo'er became even more excited.

But the lady was not good at doing well and didn't work hard. No matter how agile she was as a maid, she had no room for her to perform. While immersed in her fantasy, Mo'er worked harder to urge Ru Niang to find a way to get rid of the embarrassing situation now.

But no matter whether Mo'er threatened or tempted, Ru Niang looked so soft and cowardly, neither angry nor cared about it, and slowly worked on needles and threads all day long.

Mo'er was so angry that she really wanted to pinch and slap a few times like she taught those disobedient little maids a lesson before, but due to her identity, she didn't dare to act rashly, so she could only be anxious, or find a way to pass the message to the Wei family, so that the Wei family could think of another way to put some pressure on Ru Niang.

On the Wei family, we received the news that Mo'er had sent back.

Mrs. Wei was also anxious and went to discuss with Wei.

In Zhu Mansion, Nie was received by Wei Shi Xiaohua Hall.

In fact, she was reluctant to come to her family because although her husband Zhu Zhifeng had already reached the second-rank position, he might be a first-rank official, but he was a civil servant. In his early years, he was a poor family and had a poor family background, so even if he reached the second-rank position, his family background was very average.

When I think about it, Wei felt very wronged. Back then, she was the legitimate daughter of the Bo Mansion, with a noble status and was also the best among the noble daughters of Yancheng. It was because there was no successor to the Bo Mansion. As the title reached her father's generation, the decline of the family was a foregone conclusion, and there were no outstanding children in the clan who could have the power to turn the world back.

So her marriage was a bit too high and not too low, and she was picky and missed it again and again. In the end, her father decided to marry her to Zhu Zhifeng, who had just passed the imperial examination. She was attracted by Zhu Zhifeng's talent and character, saying that she had potential, and she was going downhill like the Wei family or was looking better now, but she was a noble family who would be involved in court struggles at any time. She was also competitive. At least her parents' family could not be angry with her.

Zhu Zhifeng was twenty-two at that time. There were quite a few people who could pass the Jinshi at such a young age, and it was even more rare that they had not yet got married. It was because he lost his mother after the imperial examination and had been filial for three years. Later, he was devoted to studying and wanted to marry after high school. This was also because Zhu Zhifeng himself had a vision. He knew that if he could go further, he could get a better marriage and there was no need to rush for a while.

Even so, given the conditions of Zhu Zhifeng at that time, she was still much better than her uncle, so she naturally didn't want to do so at that time. Unfortunately, her father was tough and forced to book a marriage, so she could only marry aggrievedly.

I have to say that my father has a very good vision, and Zhu Zhifeng is indeed talented and ambitious. The poor children have passed the imperial examination and are now from the second grade, which is considered successful. The relatives also say that his father had a vision back then. He chose a young man with such potential among a group of young students. Now many tribesmen have followed their father's approach. Instead of marrying their daughter high, they marry those scholars who have potential and already have fame.

Over the past few years, this approach is not bad. No matter how bad the luck is, he can return to his hometown to be a gentry with the title of a juren. If he is lucky, he can soar into the sky and be promoted one after another, becoming a great helper for his parents' family. It is no worse than those who marry into a noble family, who declined in a blink of an eye and also implicated his parents' family. Once the noble family completely declines, those children from aristocratic families who have been born with a golden spoon in their mouths and have no ability to make a living at all will live a miserable life.

Wei can understand this truth and knows that he should not complain, but he still feels wronged.

When a daughter is married to a high family, a wife is married to a low family. The daughter's family should have a high marriage. She lives better than when she was in her parents' family. However, when she married into the Zhu family, the food and clothing cost suddenly decreased. At the beginning, the Zhu family's family was not as wealthy as the slaves of their Wei family. They only rely on her dowry subsidies, so she could barely survive.

Even now, Zhu Zhifeng has achieved his position as a second-rank, but his mother's brothers are not good at it and live by the clan's family. However, the foundation of the noble family is not comparable to that of Zhu Zhifeng who has climbed up from poor families.

The emerging Zhu Mansion and Wei Mansion are incomparable.

Wei did not like his mother's family to visit his home. Compared with the thinness of the Zhu family, he showed contemptuous eyes at everything in the Zhu family.

But this kind of thing is sometimes inevitable. She can only decorate the flower hall where she often entertains guests elegantly and use the fragrance of books to suppress the lack of financial resources.

Nie is Xuxian, the daughter of a wealthy businessman, and Wei is two extremes. On weekdays, this sister-in-law looks harmonious on the surface, but they both look down on each other.

Wei thought that the daughter of the nouveau riche of Nie was vulgar and tyrant.

Nie thought that Wei was aloof and was obviously a greedy person, but he still looked at money like dirt. But she wanted to make money and want people to join shares. With a little test, Wei would show her true face. She was more anxious than anyone else to make money.

Not only Wei, but the Wei family members are the same. They are greedy for her parents' dowry and look down on her behind their backs, and Nie also looks down on such noble ladies.

No matter how dissatisfied, these two men are smart women. They know that both sides have value to use, but they can maintain superficial harmony and occasionally cooperate. After all, the Nie family has money and the Zhu family has power. The combination of money and power has always been invincible.

Now is their cooperation.

If it weren't for Wei's family, with the decline of Wei family and the wealthy Nie family, they would not have sent their concubines to the Ding Prince's Mansion as concubines in any case. They had no such way. If they were like the wealthy businessmen who had sent beauty to the past, they would have sent it without the consent of the princess, and their status would have been lowered and no one could respect it. Although they had only sent it in and had not booked the status, as long as they could send it in, it would be half successful.

Even if Nie is not successful, there will be no loss. Ru Niang is not her biological daughter. If she is really unpopular in the future, she can still take it out and transfer it to wealthy businessmen who have business dealings with her parents. The beauty who has entered the high-ranking house will increase its value after she comes out. Especially some wealthy businessmen and giants who like arts in other places like to take such beauties from the families of top nobles as concubines, which is a symbol of status.

But it was different for Wei. She wanted a reputation. How many people were watching her as the concubine of the Ding Prince's Mansion? She asked her family to compete for her and no one could say anything. Many families were even a legitimate daughter who had to compete for this position. But if they failed, they would become sending their niece as concubines. They were all concubines. However, a rank concubine was very different from ordinary concubines, not to mention that now, she was not even a concubine, but just a nameless beauty and a toy.

After her husband came back that day, he was quite complaining when he learned about it, saying that she was a little anxious, and at least she had to have a concubine ceremony. What is the difference between such an unknown and unfair gifted method and those snobs who sent beauty to the royal palace to please King Ding? If he spread it, he would be stabbed by someone. What civil servants pay attention to is character.

Fortunately, this matter was not widely publicized, and Princess Ding was not a social person. Even if outsiders heard a little news, they knew that her parents' home had sent a girl to the Ding Palace, but they didn't know the details, and they didn't know that it was given by Wei himself. They would probably misunderstand that her parents' family made their own decisions and had little to do with the Zhu family.

But if he knew that the person was sent in by Mr. Wei himself, he would throw it in the Ding Palace without any reason, and he might say something ugly.

Zhu Zhifeng asked Wei to stop here. If Ru Niang could gain a foothold in Dingwang Mansion by relying on herself, it would be fine. If she could not, the Zhu family must not be involved in it anymore and must be separated from each other.

This is also the fact that Ru Niang had no sound when she entered the Ding Prince's Mansion. The news from Mo'er said that Ru Niang was arrested by Princess Ding and ignored him. Don't say it was favored. She had never even seen the face of Ding Prince. Perhaps Ding King didn't even know that there was such a number of people in the backyard.

If there is a formal concubine document or something like that, you can now raise an army to question the crime. Even Zhu Zhifeng can secretly mention his wife's niece to King Ding and let King Ding take care of him.
