Chapter 323: Asking for the Door
The gossip is that the First Lady has a serious gynecological disease, and she wants to find a common room to serve the Duke of State on her behalf. The old Duke of China, the old lady and the Duke of China all disagreed, saying that it was against the ancestral tradition.
The eldest lady cried a lot, said if the cure is not good, and they do not agree with the method, she had to beg to go, can not let the state eunuch in the prime of life without a woman.
Old Duke and old lady can’t, let her continue to treat, really can’t cure again.
This matter spread so quickly, perhaps there is the Grand Madam’s authorization.
Sister Wu quietly said, “A daughter-in-law married is good. Look at the Duke of State, the whole person changed once the First Lady entered the door, and she doesn’t mind that kind of illness.”
Jiang Yishi smiled and didn’t say anything.
Sister Wu shook her head, voice pressed even smaller, “If the big lady’s disease has not been cured, the Duke of State is in his prime, it is impossible to have not been looking for a woman …… This House can be lively in the future, those little hooves, did not dare to think about it before, and finally have a chance, shall not compete for the head ah. ”
She continued to lower her head to sew a small garment, not long before she raised her head again and said, “To the husband to lift the common room, usually lift their own maid. But the big lady brought a few dowry maids are ordinary in appearance, only two barely counting the beautiful. The Duke of State’s vision is high, not necessarily looking …… at them.”
Jiang Yishi didn’t listen to her later words, Zheng Ji’s handsome and resolute face suddenly jumped out in front of her eyes. From his youth to his prime, he had suppressed even his physical nature because of his longing and self-reproach.
Jiang Yishi did not give birth to a few heartaches, so many years have been living in remembrance, how painful.
If Hu’s alive, probably also hope that the rest of his life can have a woman who knows him and understands him, and finish this life properly …….
Outside the window came the familiar sound of footsteps, as well as the maid’s voice, “Master Shizi is back.”
Sister Wu hurriedly got up from the small stool and helped Jiang Yishi, who was sitting on the kang, up.
Greeting her out of the hall room, Meng Zhimo had already walked in.
Jiang Yishi pouted, “I told you not to come back, but you’re back again.”
The two of them walked hand in hand to the bedroom, Watercress served Meng Zhimo into the purification room to wash up, Jiang Yishi found a set of household clothes from the closet.
When Meng Zhimo was eating, Jiang Yishi poured a glass of wine by hand and spoke about the rumors in the mansion.
Meng Zhimo stopped his chopsticks and pondered for a moment before realizing.
“I said how come Duke Cheng is so honest, it turns out they reached some sort of agreement.” Shaking his head again, he sighed, “It’s a pity that he doesn’t know to cherish such a good woman.”
Jiang Yishi was surprised, “You guessed it?” Feeling that she had let her mouth slip, she laughed again, “I also guessed that they might have an agreement in private. Do you think that grandfather could agree?”
Meng Zhimo said, “We all guessed it, and Grandfather, as wise as he is, would surely be able to guess it as well. That’s their common choice, what else can they do if they don’t agree. Alas, try to make it as good as possible for Mrs. in other ways.”
Jiang Yishi let out a long sigh, “I suddenly thought of General Zheng, it’s not easy to be alone for so many years. My mother has been gone for so many years, there was no longer him in her heart a long time ago, he should have his own life ……”
Meng Zhimo looked at her twice and laughed, “If Uncle Zheng knows that you care about him, he must be very happy.”
Jiang Yishi stiffened her mouth, “Who cares about him?”
The next day, Jiang Yishi heard Meixiang say that a few families had sent her gifts.
Mei Xiang said disdainfully, “The slave girl didn’t collect them, they all took them back. They are trying to get the slave girl to say something good in front of Great Grandma, so that they can transfer their own girl to the Duke of State’s outer study as an official. ……”
The Duke of Chengdu’s outer study has five subordinates, two boys, two maids, and a granny who does rough work. Those two maids were average looking and were both engaged to be married.
It was impossible for them to be common rooms for the Duke of State, and many people with pretty girls had ideas.
Shui Ling coldly snorted, ”Why did you let them take it back? Those people had bad little thoughts, so you should have taken them back and let them have a basket of water. Hmph, I hate fox charming women who want to be mistresses.”
She had heard Sister Wu and Shui Xiang talk about the original Shui Lu, how she had transferred to Great Grandma’s side in order to be a mistress, and how she had pinched the tip. It was good that she was sent out, if she had followed over, even if the Great Master didn’t want her, she would have made the Great Grandmother angry.
On this day, Sister Wei from Fuqing Yuan came to Floating Life Residence.
Jiang Yishi knew that this person was probably for that matter, and felt that he had some face, and directly begged to come to Jiang Yishi.
Jiang Yishi didn’t think she was a particularly vindictive person, otherwise half of the subordinates in the inner courtyard would have been driven away.
In her previous life, not only did the master not serve her, but the subordinates also didn’t treat her well. It was normal for her not to be treated well, she had a bad reputation, Fu’s and Meng Zhiyu hated her, and it was the norm for her to be held up and stepped on.
But this woman Wei, is particularly hateful.
In his previous life, the old Duke of China and Meng Ruimo spent most of their time living in the Meng family home. One time when both of them were back, Jiang Yishi went to Fu An Hall to look for the old Duke. At that time, she had already seen that her staying in the Cheng Guo Gongfu would not have a good outcome, and wanted to go and beg the old lord to go and live in the Huzhuang for a while. There to plot and plan, find an excuse to be seriously ill, and ask herself to leave the hall.
She has walked into the hanging flower door, and was driven out by the granny guard. The key to this is that this granny is not a gatekeeper granny, but a steward of the small kitchen.
A few days later she and Meng Ruimo were designed …… If she had met the old princes that day and went to the Huzhuang, would she and Meng Ruimo have ended up in a different way in her previous life?
During the past few years, all of Fu’s minions were removed, but this Granny Wei was not considered a minion of Fu’s, and was working as an errand boy at Fu An Hall, so Jiang Yishi didn’t move her.
Jiang Yishi didn’t touch her, but she came to the door today.
Jiang Yishi busily said, “Please come in.”
Sister Wei came in and saluted, joked a few times and then got to the point, “Not to hide from Great Grandma, the old slave’s youngest daughter Wei Honglian is fifteen years old this year, and she still looks good …….”
Mei Xiang laughed, “Sister Wei is too modest, they say that Sister Wei will give birth to three daughters, each watery and beautiful, than the son is also used.”
Sister Wei smiled with a chrysanthemum face, “My several daughters do not dare to say that the special water spirit, but it is a little more diligent hands and feet, the temper is also good, gentle and obedient …… Oh, I heard that the two girls in the State Prince’s outer study are getting older, and will soon be out of the cabinet. If there is a vacancy there, the old slave shamelessly begged the great grandmother to help, so that the old slave’s little daughter to go to the top of a shortage.”
Jiang Yishi laughed in embarrassment, “This matter ah, there have already been several people begging at the door, but I didn’t dare to agree. Now that there is a new wife, how can I, as a daughter-in-law, meddle in the affairs of my father-in-law’s house? If you ask me, I’ll recommend Sister’s youngest daughter. If Mistress directly arranges for someone, how dare I disagree?”
Disappointed, Sister Wei made a few more small talk and got up to leave.
As soon as she left, Jiang Yishi whispered a few words to Sister Wu.
Sister Wu smiled, chased her out of the courtyard and called out to Sister Wei, pulling her under a tree and saying, “Sister Wei is quite a clever person, but she can’t even figure out such an easy thing.”
