Verse 61 This is the reality

Wang Xifeng turned over and got up from the kang, Danfeng's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it: "Ping'er, where did you get this news from?" Make no mistake, right? ”

"Grandma, where can such things go wrong?" Ping'er's expression was also a little complicated, "The slave maid heard it from the mandarin duck, and the mandarin duck learned from the ancestor, it is said that the uncle has arrived at the Xue Mansion where the aunt and wife have just moved out, waiting for the Feng family to come to the door to propose." ”

Wang Xifeng suddenly realized, no wonder Aunt Xue came to move out for a few days two days ago, which made her quite strange.

It's nothing to move out, but all of a sudden it's so eager, and everyone is surprised.

It was also said that Xue Pancheng's Aunt Xue was going to move out, and she bought a house in Guangning Bo Hutong, not far from Rongning Street, and Rongning Erfu was just a stick of incense.

asked the reason, Aunt Xue was also vague, and only said that it was convenient for Xue Pan to prepare for marriage.

This is reasonable, but Wang Xifeng knows that Xue Zhai has already cleaned up and can move over at any time, this is more than a month before Xue Pan gets married, why has he never said it before, so he moved over abruptly.

It turned out that such a thing was waiting.

If people want to come to the door to propose marriage, they naturally can't live in Jiafu anymore, and they have to go back to prepare.

But even the uncle came to Xue's house in person, which shows the importance attached to this matter.

Wang Xifeng's expression was also a little subtle, and the old god sitting on the kang thought for a while before saying, "Ping'er, why did you say that the Feng family didn't choose Shi Xiangyun, but chose Xue Baochai?" ”

Ping'er didn't know how to answer for a while, and only after a while did she say, "Maybe it's because of Uncle Feng?" The maid also heard that Miss Baoqin may also marry in the past? ”

"Really?!" This really shocked Wang Xifeng.

Baochai's marriage into the Feng family was not only mentioned at this time, but at least two or three years ago, including his wife, aunt and uncle, they all vaguely mentioned it.

At that time, first, Feng Ziying was in the critical season of the scientific examination, so she had no intention of talking about marriage, and secondly, the three families of Jia Wang and Xue had not yet made up their minds, and the Feng family was not particularly dazzling at that time, so this delay missed a good marriage, and they found the Shen family, a scholarly family in Gusu, and then they were caught off guard by the Lin family, so that they missed a good opportunity.

Now it is very difficult for the Xue family to climb up to the Feng family, the Feng family has too many choices, there are many gentry and official eunuchs in the capital city, and there are many people who are optimistic about Feng Ziying, the most famous young scholar in the north, who has risen up, but I am afraid that as soon as the news of the second room and the mystery goes out, there will be countless people coming to the door, that is, the concubines of the four kings, eight princes and twelve princes want to marry such a family like a carp crossing the river, but I didn't expect the Feng family to come so quickly, and there was not much room for others at all.

If this was not Feng Ziying's idea, Wang Xifeng didn't believe it at all, then how would the Feng family's housewife know about the Xue family's royal merchant family, if it weren't for the Wang family's mother-in-law, I was afraid that it would be even more unbearable.

It turns out that the Xue family still has such a hand, so that Xue Baoqin can marry in the past, and with Xue Baoqin's talent, it can also increase a few weights.

This is the same as the Lin family wanting to marry Miaoyu, but the Lin family is a concubine, and the Xue family is a second-room concubine, of course, the Xue family does lack some background compared with the Lin family.

"It should be true, the maid heard the mandarin duck say that the wife seemed to be a little unhappy, but she didn't say anything." Ping'er carefully observed Wang Xifeng's face for a moment, and then said, "Grandma, does the wife want the third girl......

"It's impossible, it's just that the detective girl is cast into the wrong baby, and she can't complain." Wang Xifeng categorically denied, "The Shen family and the Lin family are both concubines, and they are both from Jinshi, and they are officials, and the lintel of the Xue family has been much lower, if it is a girl like this, it is a bit embarrassing to be a concubine, but it is impossible to be a wife, but it is ......"

"Then does the wife want the third girl to be a wife?" Ping'er thought suddenly.

"Stupid girl, the difference between concubines and concubines is not only a difference in identity, but more importantly, the concubine is generally a woman of her clan who is related to the same as her wife, and I haven't heard of a woman with a foreign surname." Wang Xifeng shook his head.

"Then Uncle Feng's one-door, three-room and three-room confinement, isn't it also the first time that the world has encountered it?" Ping'er laughed.

"That's different, the system of conjugation has existed since the Song and Ming dynasties, it is nothing more than some specific regulatory changes, of course, it is generally a concurrent and two rooms, like the Feng family, which is indeed very rare, but considering that the two rooms of the Feng family are all dying for the country, it is estimated that the imperial court will also set this precedent." Wang Xifeng groaned: "I didn't expect that the treasure girl had been waiting for a long time to have a seat, and she actually waited for such a good marriage, this sonorous brother was actually fascinated by the treasure girl, I was afraid that Aunt Xue would faint with joy." ”

"But doesn't the Xue family still want to marry a Baoqin girl? Miss Baoqin is also a concubine. Ping'er said unconvinced.

"Hmph, don't you know that Baoqin was divorced by the Mei family? What good family can a girl who has withdrawn from her family marry? It's that ordinary people will dislike it when they are in the way of material discussions, if you want me to say, that Baoqin used to be a concubine was also a good deal, and all of a sudden it blocked the Xue family from being divorced by the Mei family, and I want to say that I will be a wife to the concubine in the Shuntian Mansion, and I will be married to the Yongping Mansion, and it is really hard to say who is better. ”

Seeing that Ping'er was a little unimpressed with what she said, Wang Xifeng naturally knew that these girls were accustomed to seeing the power of their wives to Aunt Zhao, so they all felt that this wife was much stronger than a concubine, that is, the person she married was worse, and it was better than being a concubine, and it could be said that she would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail.

"Hmph, don't you think what I said is a little untrue?" Wang Xifeng sneered, "This wife and concubine also depends on the situation, if you marry Laiwang's son as a wife and Feng Ziying as a concubine, who will you choose?" ”

A slight anger swelled up on Ping'er's face, Laiwang and his family are both grandmother's henchmen, and his son is also fifteen or sixteen years old, but he is an ugly person who only knows how to eat, drink and play cards every day, and he will not marry such a person even if he dies.

"Look, I still think that my wife is good, not to mention my son, change someone, the fourth in the third room, Brother Qin, are you willing?" Wang Xifeng pursed his lips, "The serious Eight Hundred Jia family, who are the same generation as Brother Lan, are still in charge of the affairs in the temple, how about it?" ”

Ping'er's face is flat, but she knows this Jia Qin, and she is also a scoundrel, she used to come to please the second master of Lian all day long, and later the second master of Lian didn't care much about the affairs of the house outside, and climbed the thigh of Uncle Zhen of Dongfu, who is used to bullying the soft and afraid of evil, eating wine and gambling, and has a lot of vices.

"Do you think I'm pointing out all of them to you? If you want me to say that whether it is Laiwang's son or Brother Qin'er, although they are all useless, but they can still eat well, if you really want to go to the suburbs to marry a farmer's family, then you have to go in the wind and rain all day long, scoop dung to irrigate the fields, collect grain and dry wheat, and be hungry for a full meal, maybe the child will encounter floods and droughts, and you have to flee into the city to beg for food. ”

Wang Xifeng's mean and realistic words made Ping'er's heart tremble, she never thought that such a married wife would also need to do these things.

"Besides, Baoqin married as a concubine, not a concubine, and her status is much higher than that of a concubine, even the eldest woman cannot be bullied at will for no reason, and the children born are a few points higher than those born to concubines." Wang Xifeng said lightly: "And with Brother Keng'er's current momentum, it may not be possible to go to the next level in the future, even if he is a concubine, he may not have the opportunity to get a lady of fate." ”

"How is that possible?" Ping'er was shocked and couldn't believe it.

This edict and the wife are all the privileges of the official eunuch's wife, where can I get a concubine?

"Hmph, you are rare and strange, there was such a precedent in the former Song Dynasty, if the husband or son can make great contributions, there can be no special case, and if you marry an ordinary dealer and businessman, can you have this opportunity?" Wang Xifeng sneered, "Let's talk about children, if your sister-in-law is successful in studying, you don't need grace, if you can please your husband and give your son a chance to grace, won't your son be able to get an official position out of thin air?" ”

Ping'er was silent.

"Marrying into a wealthy family, this starting point is much higher than ordinary people, which dynasty and generation are not like this? If it is a poor family, it will either study hard and dream of ascending to the Tianzi Hall for Tian Shelang, or you can only join the army to go to the border and exchange your life for wealth, but this path is only afraid that it is more difficult than thousands of troops to cross a single-plank bridge. It is for the scholar to eat for one or two decades in vain, and how many ordinary people can insist? ”

is Feng Ziying here, hearing Wang Xifeng's words, you have to admire that although this woman is cunning, she has a far-reaching view of many problems, and she is also sharp about the current system.

"So, Miss Qin married into the Feng Mansion but she climbed high?" Ping'er sighed.

"Of course it's Gao Pan, and I don't know how Brother Keng persuaded that Duan clan to let Baoqin, who was dismissed, marry into the Feng Mansion." Wang Xifeng laughed, "If I were the Duan clan, this mother-in-law would be aggrieved, and everything would be done by her son, what kind of system would she become?" Where is the prestige of parents? ”

"But like Uncle Feng, who is only seventeen or eighteen years old, he is going to serve as a five-grade Tongzhi, how many can there be?" Ping'er also laughed, "This Great Zhou Dynasty has been in existence for a hundred years, I'm afraid he is the only one." ”

"Yes, so with Brother Keng'er's immeasurable future, isn't it a great creation for Baoqin to marry? If you can give birth to a son who is angry, what if you can really attack the knight? Wang Xifeng said leisurely.
