Chapter 78
After Ling Jingshu finished speaking, there was silence in the carriage
Ling Jingshu listened in a daze, her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but finally did not open her mouth
Jiang was also shocked by Ling Jingshu’s words
Only after a long time did she sigh and say: ”Ah Shu, which woman is willing to settle for less?
Which woman is not willing to grow old with her husband and live a lifetime together?”But in this world, it’s never fair to women”Ordinary people, mostly because of the poor family, can not afford to marry the second, keep the chaff wife for life
But for those who are more affluent, how can any of them just keep their wives?
They have no choice but to carry those beautiful concubines to their homes
Those royal clansmen and noble dukes, who have not yet reached adulthood, have beautiful and understanding maids by their side, and after marrying the main wife, it is a beautiful story to take concubines and keep a concubine”To be able to meet a man who treats his main wife well and won’t spoil his concubines and destroy his wife is the greatest blessing of being a woman”The words you just said, there’s no harm in saying them to us in private
In the future, in front of others, you must not mention it freely
Lest you fall into the reputation of being arrogant and reckless and not knowing what’s important”I know these words don’t sound good, however, they are from the bottom of my heart
I hope you won’t be upset if you hear them”
Jiang finished her words in a serious manner
Ling Jingyan’s face completely lost its smile and hung her head not knowing what she was thinking
Ling Jingshu, however, smiled at Jiang: “Cousin sister-in-law’s bitter words are all for my good, I am touched and grateful in my heart, how could I be unhappy”
Not waiting for Jiang’s relief, she went on, “Only, cousin sister-in-law’s words, I don’t agree with them”
Jiang: “” Ling Jingshu’s face was calm and serene, but the words she spoke were resounding, “It’s precisely because there are many injustices to women in this world that, as a woman, it’s all the more important to be self-respecting, self-loving, self-reliant and self-supporting”Regardless of what others will think and do, in short, I will stick to my own ideas
Meet the person who loves each other with all his heart
Hand in hand with white heads
If I don’t meet such a person, I’d rather be alone and not marry for life!”
Jiang drew in a breath of cool air, her heart filled with shock
Ling Jingshu was more than just resourceful and resolute
She is also a very rare woman’s perseverance and stubbornness, what the three obediences and four virtues, did not even put in the bottom of the eye, is simply considered to be deviant
This kind of nature, I’m afraid that in the future will not have to suffer
But somehow
She was vaguely envious and admired Ling Jingshu
How much courage does it take to say such things?
How much courage does it take to say such things? Ling Xiao, who had been sitting beside Ling Jingshu in silence, suddenly opened his mouth, “Ah Shu is right
In the future, if I meet a woman I like, I will definitely treat her wholeheartedly and will never have second thoughts”
Ling Jingshu smiled slightly and pulled Ling Xiao’s hand and said intimately, “It’s best if A Xiao can think this way”
Ling Xiao raises the corners of his lips and smiles cleanly and purely
Jiang looks at this pair of siblings, completely at a loss for what to say, and simply stops talking as well
Probably because this topic is a bit heavy for everyone, no one said anything else along the way after that
Each of them had something on their mind
Each had something to think about
Ling Jingshu was not affected by anything, and soon turned her head again, looking at the street outside through the thin bamboo curtains
Later, she felt that this was not clear enough, so she lifted up a corner of the curtain
Fortunately, the carriage was not moving slowly, the curtain was only lifted a little bit, revealing at most the neck and chin
Without waiting for the pedestrians to see the face of the young girl inside the carriage, the carriage had already traveled away smoothly and quickly
One hour later
The carriage left the main gate of the Imperial City and drove into the Outer Guo City
The streets were still flat, but a bit narrower than the inner city
There were also more people on the streets
The speed of the carriage also slowed down
Ling Jingshu was unwilling to let people peek at her appearance and lowered the bamboo curtain
Ling Jingyan couldn’t hold it in for too long in the end
Opening her mouth, she broke the silence, “Ah Shu, what have you been looking at for so long just now?”Looking at Luoyang City”
Ling Jingshu smiled, “Looking at the streets and pedestrians of Luoyang City, looking at the stores looking at the vendors looking at the fellows yelling to greet the customers
Luoyang City is really prosperous
This way seems to be
The place that you can see is all bustling, and there is nothing quiet or cold”
Ling Jingyan felt a sense of pride in her heart, “That’s for sure
However, sitting on the carriage and looking at it, it is just a walk in the park, not very interesting
When we arrive at the Hui Chun Hall later, let’s put on our hats and get off the carriage
It’s not a bad idea to take a stroll in the nearby South City
That’s where it’s really lively ” “Yan, I’m afraid this isn’t right!”
Jiang was busy speaking out to stop it, “Before we traveled, Granny had specifically instructed us to take a look at the Hui Chun Hall and then go back
The southern city is mostly populated by ordinary people, there are a lot of people, once we show our faces, what if we cause trouble”
Ling Jingyan laughed in disbelief, “Sister-in-law, we have brought so many guards and maids out, anyone with a clear eye would know that we are the ladies of a large family
Ordinary people can’t wait to hide, who would come to mess with us”But ” “Besides, as long as we go back and don’t even say anything, how would Mother know that we went to the southern market”
Jiang still looked hesitant
Ling Jingyan endured the pain and gave in, “Let’s do it this way!
We won’t go to those silk and rouge stores
We will only go to the most famous Ding Xiang Lou in the South City for lunch
After eating, we will go back immediately
This is always okay!”
Jiang was slightly relieved, “Will we really leave after eating?”
Ling Jingyan nodded with a serious faceAlright!
After we go to Hui Chun Hall, we’ll go to Ding Xiang Lou”
Jiang finally agreed
Ling Jingyan carefully hid the leaping joy in her heart
However, she couldn’t hide the bright light in her eyes
Ling Jingshu’s heart quietly moved
Ling Jingyan had gone to great lengths to convince Jiang to go to the Ding Xiang Lou in the southern city
What was so special about this Ding Xiang Lou?
Ling Jingyan didn’t know that she had exposed herself, and laughed excitedly, ”Ah Shu, you’ll have a good time at lunch today
There are many restaurants in the south city, more famous than the north city
Especially this Ding Xiang Restaurant, which has hired several famous chefs from all over the world
Every month, they would introduce different new dishes, and their business was extremely good
There are also quite a few noble gentlemen who live in the inner city who like to go to Ding Xiang Lou”I’ve also heard my husband mention it”
Jiang smiled and picked up the conversation, “Those students of the State Prison also go to Ding Xiang Lou to eat and drink
If we go to Ding Xiang Lou today, we might even run into acquaintances!”
Hearing the word “acquaintance”, a hopeful look flashed in Ling Jingyan’s eyes
Ling Jingshu’s heart was suddenly clear!
Ling Jingyan had pestered Sun yesterday to go on a trip, but today she had dressed up carefully and insisted on going to Dingxianglou
All of these anomalies converged into one obvious fact
Ling Jingyan had once met a young man in Ding Xiang Lou who had touched her heart!
This time, she had gone to great lengths to go to Ding Xiang Lou again in the hope of seeing that person again
