The Peasant Girl's Glory

Chapter 271 Concubine
The maid returned not long after she went out, with a bunch of portraits in her arms.

Afterwards, she put the portrait on the table and introduced Taoyao one by one:
"Princess, this is Miss Chu Qiu, she is sixteen years old. Although her family is a merchant, she has been learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with a private school teacher since she was a child, and she is no worse than those officials.

This is Miss Menghe, although she is a prostitute in the family, she is a beautiful woman, and her looks and temperament are nothing to say..."

Taoyao raised her brows and sighed. The voice between her lips and teeth was clear, but she had such a shocking force, "Mother-in-law, what do you mean?"

When she asked this, the fine suet jade bracelet on her wrist inadvertently touched the rim of the cup and made a crisp sound. The whole atmosphere was sober.

Mrs. Zhang is not afraid. Over the years, the Hou Mansion is still in charge of her old lady. All matters, big and small, can only be done through her. She is the most confident in the mansion.

"Princess, you have been in the Hou Mansion these years, and you are tired. It is his blessing that you can marry Yan'er, but it is really worrying that your husband and wife have no children under their knees.

I shouldn't have decided to take a concubine for Yan'er without authorization, but this time I was really helpless.

You are not in good health, you have been married for two years, and your belly is still not moving at all, but the Hou residence cannot end because of you, and now that you have returned to the residence, why don't you start preparing for your husband to take a concubine. "

The old lady said very calmly, "Don't worry, all the girls in this portrait are innocent girls. Because of their low background, they will never dare to go beyond half a point to you. The children they give birth to in the future can also be carried into your courtyard. nurture."

"Concubine?"

The corners of Taoyao's mouth twitched slightly, "Why didn't my mother-in-law say anything when she was in the palace?"

"Taking a concubine is just a common thing, why bother to disturb the Queen's concubine in the palace?"

Zhang shi coughed unnaturally, paused, and continued:
"Ordinary people are rich, and who is not with three wives and four concubines, let alone our huge Houfu.

As the mistress of the Hou Mansion, you must contribute to the prosperity of the Hou Mansion. For the appearance of the official family and the reputation of the Hou Mansion, it is better for the Princess to take the initiative to take a concubine for her husband. In this way, anyone who talks about it must praise the Princess. Being virtuous and virtuous, isn't it beautiful? "

Hehe, obviously to achieve his own goals, but he has to pretend to be charitable and harmonious, and to say such high-sounding words, he really wants to be a bitch and set up a memorial archway.

It turned out that this was the real purpose of their eagerness to take her out of the palace.

Taoyao chuckled lightly, "Why does my mother-in-law spend so much time, whoever the Hou Ye likes, tell me directly, I will give her the position of the main wife. As far as I know, in my Yanyun Dynasty, He Li and Li It's not that complicated."

"Heli? How can the princess have such a thought! If Heli, the Yuguan family's reputation is not good, and the Hou Mansion can't afford to lose this person!"

Zhang shi's eyes widened in shock, frowned immediately, and said angrily:
"In this case, we can't talk about it in the future. As women, we must be gentle and graceful, kind and generous, and always think of our husbands, so that we can live a long and stable life.

Your husband is your heaven. As a proper wife, you must work together with your husband to run the house and practice, honor your elders, and obey your mother-in-law's words. "

The maid, who was holding the painting with both hands, saw that her old lady was angry, she hurriedly put down the painting album and handed hot tea to Mrs. Zhang, and knelt down in front of Taoyao with a plop, with a dissatisfied expression on her face:

"Princess, be careful, don't get angry with the old lady. Although the maid is not talented, she also knows that the mansion is like a big tree, no matter how lush it is, it will eventually decay and die one day. The leaves will be endless.

If the princess insists on stopping the Hou Ye from taking a concubine, I am afraid that there will be rumors outside that you are jealous and ruthless, and then it will also affect your reputation! "

Those who can serve by the old lady's side are naturally talented and look like Zhou Zheng.

At this moment, when the maid said this, she looked like she was loyal to the Lord, her brows were lightly frowned, and some charming peach blossom eyes were full of tears, but she stubbornly refused to fall.

The beauty is tearful and charming.

But although she admires beauty, she is not a pity.

In particular, he would not pity those who wanted to climb up by slandering their master.

Taoyao burst out laughing, but her eyes narrowed, and she slowly raised her hand to caress the beautiful cheek of the maid.

Because she has been holding the tea cup, her fingertips are hot, but the nails coated with Dan Kou are cold and smooth, like a letter of a cold-blooded poisonous snake climbing on the maid's face, making the maid's body tremble uncontrollably trembling.

The maid seemed to realize her intention in a trance, and instinctively shrank her neck back, but the next moment she felt a sharp pain on her face.

"what!"

The maid let out a pained cry, and the blood that tasted a little fishy and sweet snaked down her plain white cheeks.

In the next second, there was a sound of "pop--".

Taoyao slapped the maid's face with a slap:

"Dare to slander this princess, how many heads do you have enough to chop off?"

The maid's face was directly slapped in the direction, her face full of disbelief, it took a long time to react, she covered herself with five clear slap prints and a face with deep bloodstains, raised her eyes and looked at Tao angrily. Aw, resentment filled her eyes.

"Why, this princess slapped you and wronged you?"

Taoyao took out her handkerchief and slowly wiped the blood stained between her fingernails. She turned her eyes to the resentful gaze of the maid, and sneered:

"What kind of thing are you! Even a mere servant dares to say nonsense in front of this princess. How does this princess act, why do you need outsiders to point your fingers?"

This pun made Zhang shi almost fell to his knees with anger.

Seeing how her princess and daughter-in-law behaved like this, she was teaching her slaves and maids a lesson, and she was clearly hitting her old lady in the face.

The maid gave a quick glance at Mrs. Zhang, lowered her head, and cried firmly and touchingly:
"Yes, slaves have a cheap life, and death is not a pity. I just hope that the princess can listen to what slaves have to say!"

Taoyao sneered, "It seems that you still don't know how to handle it! Humiliating the royal family is a big crime to punish the Nine Clan."

As soon as she heard that her family was going to be implicated, the maid's strength that she would rather die just now was discouraged, and she kowtowed in panic and begged for mercy:
"Princess, the princess forgives the sin, the servant is wrong, the servant will never dare, the princess will spare the servant this time..."

"Okay, since you are the mistress of my Hou's mansion, you should have a tolerance for people. Don't make a mistake and make a noise all over the world know, what it looks like!"

When the maidservant was punished, Mrs. Zhang was very angry at first.

At this time, he placed the teacup heavily on the coffee table, and stared at Taoyao for a long while, his face fixed on her face without any relaxation, but he couldn't see a trace of guilt on that face.

She was full of fire, but she couldn't let it go. The person in front of her was not an ordinary daughter-in-law, but a royal princess.

Coupled with the appearance of this daughter-in-law who is not afraid of the sky and the earth at this time, she is really afraid that if she gets angry and leaves the house, she will cause some trouble. .
