Chapter 284
half a month later
"Hey, sister Xia, don't mention it."
After Zhu Lingshan lifted the restraint, she ran to Xia Xiaoqiao early in the morning, grabbed her hand and complained.
"Didn't I just offend that stinky girl?"
"It's a trouble, so what? Huh, you don't know, they actually put my mother's dowry on their heads and put gold on their faces. Bah, who gave their faces?"
"Of course my princess can't make them feel better. Even if my family's money is thrown away to feed the dogs, I will never spend a cent on their mother and daughter, but guess what about my father? Rebuke me? Why? The princess’ feet are still banned, if it wasn’t for Mrs. Zhou’s birthday, I’m afraid I’d be locked up by them.”
While listening, Xia Xiaoqiao refilled her a cup of scented tea and said, "I hear what you mean. Could it be that you robbed someone's jewelry in person at your sister's Jiji ceremony?"
"Yeah, I just want to make them lose face, bah, snatch someone's daughter's marriage, and have the face to wear my mother's concubine's dowry. That face is really thicker than a city wall."
Zhu Lingshan looked relieved, Xia Xiaoqiao couldn't help but twitched her lips, "Tsk tsk, it seems that you are still very honorable?"
"Of course, you don't know how ugly the faces of the mother and daughter were at that time, and you don't know how they were laughed at."
Zhu Lingshan had a smug look on her face, and Xia Xiaoqiao handed over the tea, cast a glance at her helplessly and said, "You're quite proud of the way you kill one thousand enemies and hurt eight hundred."
"I, I just can't swallow this breath. Why did she fall into the water and snatch my fiancé when I reached the ceremony? I just retaliated against him with the same method."
"Treat the other body? I think you will be in danger."
Xia Xiaoqiao gave her a helpless look, "No matter how bad your sister is, she is also the future mistress of the Lu family of the Duke of Zhenguo, and if you do this, you will also lose the face of the royal family. It is already magnanimous for your father to punish you by grounding you. "
"Besides, I heard that your royal father is visiting someone for you recently, which means he wants to marry you off before your sister gets married."
Zhu Lingshan became anxious as soon as she heard it.
"They can't just send me away like this."
Xia Xiaoqiao knew that she had knots in her heart, but she hadn't been idle for more than half a month.
Lu Jingyuan was afraid that she would not understand the rules here, so he gave her many books, all about women's virtue and women's precepts. Besides, Xia Xiaoqiao also went to ask Lu Chunhua's upbringing mother for a while.
After all this tossing, she more or less understood the rules of this dynasty.
"Lingshan, there are some things you don't have to do if you don't want to, because your sister and Ji offended your father and king, and your stepmother and your sister may not be able to swallow this breath, so Princess Pingkang is at least one of them. Your elder, you are whispering in your father's pillow, if you really want to marry you off, even if you make a fuss, it will be useless."
"What should I do?"
Zhu Lingshan said angrily: "Anyway, I don't care, even if I get married, I will definitely not be worse than Lu Qing, otherwise I will vomit to death in my life?"
Xia Xiaoqiao sighed, "Marriage is not a child's play. Two people want to love each other and support each other for a lifetime. How can you ruin your life because of these? Lingshan, don't lose more than you gain."
"Sister Xia, I know you're doing it for my own good, but just because you can find a good husband like brother-in-law doesn't mean that other people can too."
Zhu Lingshan said solemnly: "Sister Xia, don't look at my temper, but I grew up in the capital anyway, so I haven't seen anything? From the imperial palace to the inner courtyards of various mansions, there are many dirty things. It can be seen everywhere, there are groups of concubines in the back house, how many women in the inner house are weeping secretly? I am not stupid, how can I not see it?"
"Do you think that Lu Qing is considered a good-looking talent? But the yard has long been equipped with housemaids. This is how all the women from the Daqian Dynasty come here. They love each other? Forget it."
Zhu Lingshan didn't take it seriously, and then said: "When my concubine mother was alive, didn't my father love her and spoil her? But what happened in the end? Sister Xia, don't think I'm younger than you, but I can understand. As I told you, I don’t expect to be in love with each other until I grow old. If that’s the case, why can’t I let myself live happily? I just want to find someone with a good status. The higher his status, the better. , and save yourself from being inferior in the future.”
Xia Xiaoqiao:?
She was really taken aback by this.
I really didn't expect that Zhu Lingshan was young, but she thought she was understanding.
If there is no emotional bondage, women can actually live very well in this world.
"Then do you have a goal?"
Xia Xiaoqiao thought for a while and said, "Since you have made up your mind, you have to find a way for yourself. Being passively beaten is not a good choice."
"Eh--"
When it comes to this, Zhu Lingshan is very depressed.
"I searched all the unmarried men in this capital city. As I am, there are only a few that can be matched, but—"
Seeing her speechless appearance, Xia Xiaoqiao couldn't help but said, "No one suitable?"
Before Zhu Lingshan could speak, the maid beside her couldn't help but sigh.
"Miss Xia, the slaves have torn up the booklets. It is not uncommon to say that there are people who are worthy of the status of our princess, but those who are capable mostly lead soldiers to fight outside. What is the identity of our princess? She is delicate and fleshy." How can we follow? If these are eliminated, there will be less searching in Beijing."
"Not only are there fewer, but most of my princesses don't like it. For example, the son of Zhou in the mansion of An Guogong, according to his identity, he is the son of the mansion of the manor of the state, and he is the son of the mansion of the manor of the state of Zhen. Bi, his status is not bad, but the problem is, this Zhou Shizi is really helpless, he spends all day teasing cats and dogs, even fell off his horse a few days ago, and he still hasn't woken up yet—— "
When Xia Xiaoqiao heard this, she frowned slightly, "Lingshan, you just said Mrs. Zhou's birthday. Could it be this old lady from the Duke's family?"
"Exactly."
Zhu Lingshan nodded, "Speaking of which, the reason I'm looking for you this time is to take you to have a look."
"I?"
Xia Xiaoqiao glanced at her in surprise, "On such an occasion, the wives and ladies of high officials must go there. Your brother-in-law in my family is the only one who doesn't have an official background, okay?"
This relationship also depends on her status. Her highest status now is only Mrs. Xie Yuan. What did she go to do?
"Hey, Sister Xia, can I still harm you? With me, Zhu Lingshan, who would dare to bully you or look down on you? The princess made her look good."
Zhu Lingshan was serious, but Xia Xiaoqiao cast her a glance and said, "Tell me, is there anything you want from me?"
"hey-hey--"
Zhu Lingshan smiled and took her hand and said, "I know that I can't hide anything from Sister Xia."
"Actually, Mrs. Zhou and my mother are close friends in the boudoir. Aunt Zhou has taken good care of me for many years. Zhou Chi is Aunt Zhou's only legitimate son. If something goes wrong, she will be very sad."
"So, sister Xia, can you help me?"
