Because she knew that Gongsun Yingjiang was stubborn about male sex, Sheng Weiqiao was worried that he would not be able to scare his niece, so that morning, he stayed up until midnight waiting for Rong Suihe to discuss his ideas.
Rong Suihe did not return until midnight. Even though he was still in good health, he had a look of exhaustion on his brows due to the continuous running around during those confinement months. Sheng Weiqiao felt heartbroken when he saw that. After a few words of greeting, he went to sleep without mentioning the matter.
The next month she took Lord Guangchang and Lord Yunyang to the Hou Mansion.
Because Rong Suihe went out early in the morning, although the two nieces came to stay with the host for the fifth day of the lunar month, they still cared about her aunt's company. But considering that if he went to the Marquis' Mansion alone, there would be no serious adults in the Prince's Mansion. It would seem that the two nieces didn't care about them, so they simply took them with them.
Guangchang County Lord and Yunyang County Lord were not willing to go to Xu's house as guests. Firstly, they were reluctant to waste time with Chuwu; secondly, they were afraid of trouble.
Sheng Weiqiao then said: "He needs to find Ning Wei Hou Shi's wife for something. At that time, our third uncle was not in the house, so he couldn't throw us away. In just half a month, we will be back. , they are entertaining the in-laws over there at the moment, so we can’t stay long.”
The two nieces reluctantly agreed to come to the east.
The Xu family was a little surprised to see Yunyang in Guangchang. After all, they only had two children. Nan was probably worried about her daughter's marriage at that time, and had no time to pay attention to the rare twin sisters. After a few polite remarks and a greeting gift, he said to Sheng Weiqiao: "Please see Cai Kui? She is in the courtyard now, and she seems to be with Ying Jiang. He asked Chensha to take me there."
Then he looked at Guangchang County Lord and Yunyang County Lord, "Are the two counties...?"
Lord Guangchang came and said, "Excuse me, madam. Of course they will follow my aunt."
It turned out that when I arrived at the courtyard, I saw that Xu Caikui and Gongsun Yingjiang were indeed talking by the stone table in the east of the flower shelf, but unexpectedly, Mrs. Cen was also there!
When Sheng Weiqiao passed by, she was trying hard to persuade Gongsun Yingjiang: "... As a woman, isn't it natural for a woman to support her husband's family?"
"Then you don't want to take concubines for Mr. Wu?" Xu Caikui's face turned red as he said this, but Gongsun Yingjiang asked with a smile, "Then you ask the Xuzhou official to set fires and prevent the people from lighting lamps. How can you convince his mother-in-law? No. ? According to him, you should first give Mr. Wu a charming concubine in the eighteenth room, and then buy twenty or thirty pretty maids for Mr. Wu to serve. After that, you can tell his mother-in-law that her mother-in-law is not here either. Have you said what you said?"
Mrs. Cen said displeased: "My child! You told me that my husband is not in good health..."
"As you said, if you take a concubine, you must be with her every day?" Gongsun Yingjiang said slowly, "Then his aunt must ask for hundreds of dishes to be served when she is a child? There are so many dishes for her to eat together. Even if she just had a bite, she wouldn't be able to eat anything! The reason why the food was all laid out was probably to put on a show? The Wu family was not an official family after all, so they didn't even have the money to buy concubines or maids. ? Yongwanzhe, you are so jealous that you don’t even want to pretend to show it to your mother-in-law? Then you are embarrassed to say that? "
What she said was very rude, and Mrs. Cen became angry and slapped Dong Shizui: "Why did I shut up?!"
"What are you so angry about..." Gongsun Yingjiang was afraid of her and sneered. Just as he was begging to continue talking about going east, he saw Aunt and nephew Sheng Weiqiao coming over and stood up to greet her, "Auntie, why did I come here... Hey, Did you bring two county princes with you?"
When Mrs. Cen saw this, she didn't care to argue with her, so she brought Xu Caikui over to see her.
"Then I'm thinking that I haven't seen Caikui for a long time. He wants to go to Western Xinjiang with Mi Zhen in a few months. I'm afraid that if he misses those months, it will be difficult to shut up in person like this in the future. Otherwise, he can understand You guys took some time to come over and get together with us?" After Sheng Weiqiao and his nieces were greeted to sit down, they exchanged a few words and then politely said, "You're not disturbing us, are you?"
What she meant when she said that was to let Mr. Cen see the light and leave. After all, Sheng Weiqiao had already said that she was planning to leave Chang'an immediately. Time was tight. If someone was to come out tomorrow, she would just go with Xu Caikui. Gongsun Yingjiang shut up... So what did Cen Shi stay there for
However, Mrs. Cen didn't know whether she didn't hear it or not. Whether it was intentional or not, she heard the words and said: "Princess, you are here at the right time. Can you give him some advice? The Wu family has only a few heirs, and even Cai Kui can't come in." It's been a whole year, but there's been no movement! He wants her to allow his concubine to come in, what's wrong with that?"
She asked and said that. Sheng Weiqiao had heard from Sheng Weirao before she came, so it was fine. The Nan family was not easy to mess with, and the elders of the Xu family were not easy to deal with. Sheng Weiqiao did not think that he needed to support Xu Caikui. .
