After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.
Chapter 209: Madam is Frugal and Manages the Household
Wang was silent. She had not expected the matter to develop to this point. Her savior was short of money, so according to her habit, she would just give him some money and solve the problem once and for all.
But now that he has been recruited, if I find an excuse to fire him, and word gets out that I treated my savior like this, then the reputation of the Bo Mansion will be unnecessary. If he is transferred from Luofengxuan, not to mention the ten taels of silver a month as "maintenance", it will be difficult to explain myself, as if I suspect my savior of having ulterior motives. Wang shi pondered for a moment and decided to give herself a way out, "I hope you don't feel insulted, sir."
The upright gentleman said without hesitation, "It's not an insult. This job is easy, but the monthly salary is generous. There is nothing better than this."
Mr. Dayi said something very humorous with a very upright face. For a moment, people didn't know whether to take it seriously or as a joke. Wang smiled awkwardly, "That's right, that's right..." She didn't expect that Mr. Dayi looked so like an ordinary man.
Both sides were talking, but Wang Shanshan didn't care about what was right or wrong. She didn't think this seemingly dull scholar had any background or kindness. She only cared about whether Wen Qian could fall out of favor! She interrupted and questioned, "Even if these things are true, it's true that you are jealous, narrow-minded, and have no children! Since you got married, you have never served your aunt and fulfilled your filial piety! You are good at talking and gossiping. Wen Qian, you have violated several of the seven grounds for a woman to be divorced. How can you deny it?"
Yuan Ge held his chin in his hand and pondered for a while. He felt that everything fit the situation. His eyes fell on the moon-shaped door on the other side of the wall. He chuckled to himself, "Well, I can't deny it." There was a smile in his eyes. He glanced at Wang Shanshan with a curled mouth and asked softly, "What do you think, cousin, should I do...? Divorce me and be kicked out of the house?"
The cousin was very proud, "Of course!"
Wang had seen Wen Qian's mouth many times before. Whenever she showed weakness like this, she was probably planning something bad. She frowned and said in a low voice, "Shanshan, don't talk nonsense. Your cousin and his wife's marriage was granted by the imperial decree. You can't do this!"
"But she——!"
The cousin pointed at Yuan Ge and blurted out, but before she finished her words, a cold voice came from the other end, "But what about her? She is my, Song Wenyuan's, wife. Whether she is good or bad is up to me as your husband to decide. When is it the turn of an outsider to come and make comments?" At the entrance of the moon cave, Song Wenyuan stood with his hands behind his back, with a cold face, and no one knew how much he had heard.
Wang's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly realized... The sunlight was shining down from the top of the wall, and from Wen Qian's perspective, she could definitely see the figure standing behind the wall. She didn't need to guess who the person was who could stand there and eavesdrop so openly. She said that Wen Qian would never be so obedient and cooperative, and that she must be waiting here!
Wang looked at Wang Shanshan's face and tried to smooth things over in a friendly manner, "Your cousin is a bit spoiled. She had some arguments with Wen Qian outside and was unhappy, so she said some harsh words... She's just a kid, she doesn't mean any harm. As a cousin, you're being too harsh. What outsider... How is she an outsider?"
"If she's not an outsider, then maybe she's my wife?" Song Wenyuan sneered, not even taking half a step. He asked Yanhuo to bring out a stool for Yuan Ge to sit on, and then he propped up the back of the chair with one hand and said seriously, "Before I got married, she got mad and insisted on living in Qichi Pavilion. I gave up half of the yard for your sake. Now that I'm married, she still wants to make trouble, and even says some specious things in front of my wife to sow discord. She's not four years old, mother...she's also a big girl who's about to come of age. You still let her do whatever she wants. Are you going to let her husband and mother-in-law teach her when she enters her husband's family?"
Wang Shanshan trembled all over, and almost steadied herself, looking at Song Wenyuan with trembling lips, looking embarrassed...
"Cousin?" She called cautiously, her last words trembling, "Cousin, don't you know my feelings until now?"
Yuan Ge took Wen Xiaobai from Murong and stroked his white fur. Hearing this, he chuckled and looked at her sideways. "Girl, you acted so obviously. Any man who is not a fool can see it. If you think the other person doesn't know, then the other person has no interest in you... Girl, a girl's heart is so precious. You shouldn't waste it on someone who is destined not to respond to you."
"Shut up! If you hadn't been the one doing the dirty work, how could my cousin have ignored me? My mother and aunt had already agreed that as long as I turned 15 and had my coming-of-age ceremony, they would let my cousin and I get married! It's all your fault!"
At this point, Wang was helpless. This matter was indeed something they had agreed on privately, but she herself was unsure in the first place. Now the status of the entire Kejing Marquis's Mansion almost all depended on her son. As long as he was not happy about something, she, as a mother, could not say anything.
The little girl had waited for so many years but all in vain. Her expression was ferocious at this moment, and she looked like she was about to pounce on Yuan Ge and tear him to pieces at any time.
Yuan Ge shrugged. The little girl refused to listen to her advice, so she just turned her head and asked Song Wenyuan, "Master Song, is this true?"
Lord Song shook his head calmly, "Although it is my parents' order and the matchmaker's words, my marriage cannot be decided by others. If it is not my own will, even this imperial decree granting marriage must be refuted." Of course, the second half of the sentence is a bit exaggerated. Although he was reluctant at that time, there were just multiple women in the invisible corner. It was not him who was neglected and restrained. But this truth cannot be said in this life.
Yuan Ge raised his eyebrows, but didn't believe him. He just smiled again, "Today I met my cousin on the street. She bought a lot of things. On the one hand, she said that my Wen family only knows how to eat luxury food. On the other hand, she showed me the materials from Jinxiu Pavilion and the jewelry from Pei's that she bought with your money. Her generosity even shocked me, a member of the Wen family... I remembered that my husband had just been fined for half a year's salary a while ago, and now he is living on his savings, so I decided to refuse. Husband, do you think I am jealous?"
"It is a blessing for a wife to be diligent and frugal in managing the household."
The words "thrifty and frugal" pressed on this person's head, really had no persuasive power, but Song Wenyuan said it calmly, with a calm face, and then looked at Wang Shanshan, "Before, I thought that you had just arrived in Shengjing, and you might need to buy some daily necessities, and it would take some time to get money from the account office, so I allowed you to report my name first... But you misunderstood. From now on, if you don't have money, go to the account office to withdraw it."
