A Concubine of Salted Fish in Qing Dynasty [Red House]

At first glance, Mrs. Song doesn't sound too bad, at least he's not the age to be a grandfather of his daughter, but what about the others?

She hurriedly asked: "Brother Chang, are there any rumors in the prefect's backyard? How is your temperament?"

Yun Chang shook his head: "It is said that the magistrate is not good at women, and there are no messy rumors. I will inquire about the details."

Yun Shuyao didn't think for long before she spoke: "Mother, I am willing."

Even if she hadn't read the great book A Dream of Red Mansions, she still knew who Lin Ruhai was—he was Lin Daiyu's father.

When he appeared in the book, he was a high-ranking official who had a son under his knees, but later died, leaving only Lin Daiyu, a daughter, who finally lived a life of cruelty in Jia's family, and died in Jia's house, and the property of Lin's family was also destroyed. They were all filled in Jia's house, and they were wiped out, so she didn't know the details.

She doesn't have so much time to read extracurricular books, and she is busy with part-time jobs in her spare time.

Now that she has come to this world, she can either marry or become a monk. If this Lin Ruhai is still the Lin Ruhai she understands, then entering the Lin family is also a good choice.

If she can have a child, no matter if it is a man or a woman, the Lin family who lacks children will not treat her badly. If she does not have a child, she can find a way to get away when the time comes.

You can also take advantage of the days in the Lin family to exercise your abilities. The higher the level, the easier it is to escape.

Furthermore, at this time there is no such thing as a mistress, and there is no need for any moral pressure. As for fulfilling the responsibility of a concubine, Yun Shuyao feels that she will not suffer a disadvantage.

Being able to give birth to a person like Sister Lin, and being from a Tanhua background, wouldn't be too bad.

As for the strife in the backyard, Yun Shuyao wasn't too worried.

She is not a vegetarian, I will not offend people if they do not offend me, if anyone offends me, of course it will be an eye for an eye.

Mrs. Song shook her head and took her daughter's hand: "What are you in a hurry for? Your eldest brother will go and inquire first. Let's discuss this matter slowly." He was anxious to agree to do something, what if the Lin family was a fire pit.

Yun Shuyao held Song Shi's hand instead.

This hand was cold and still trembling slightly.

Yun Chang went out to ask for more information, and Song Shi waited anxiously.

One is waiting for news from Yunchang, and the other is waiting for news from her husband.

Wang Momo said that she had already written a letter, and her husband was wronged again, maybe he is on his way back now?

Yun often went out to inquire, and the information he knew was more specific, but not much.

For example, knowing the age of the prefect, he is 27 this year, and he is now a fourth-rank magistrate. The old lady and the prefect's wife are also with him. This is the only serious master, and two months ago, The old lady took a good concubine to the magistrate. She was the concubine's daughter of a cloth merchant. It is said that she also entered the house because of her horoscope.

In addition, it is said that there are two other houses, full of money, and the prefect has a total of four women. Given his status, this number is really very small.

I haven't heard that the prefect's wife has any notoriety, only that she is a talented woman who loves poetry and books.

After hearing this, Song Shi breathed a sigh of relief.

As the magistrate, the number of people in the backyard is really clean, promise?

Song didn't dare to nod her head, waiting for her husband to come back.

It's just that she feels that it is more likely that the husband will agree when he comes back.

Facing the magistrate, they are such small families, do they have the right to refuse?

Mrs. Song was apprehensive, and within two days, she saw her uncle come back with her husband.

"Brothers and sisters, we are back."

Hearing the uncle's voice, Song Shifei flew over to open the door.

Seeing a mule cart parked at the door, the uncle stood beside him and lifted the curtain to reveal his husband lying inside, "Sister and sister, the second brother is back."

Mrs. Song looked into the car, and Yun Qingliang also looked over, showing a smile. When she saw it, Mrs. Song burst into tears and choked up: "Husband..."

His face was unbelievably pale, and one of his legs was still clamped with a plank. He had suffered so much.

Song quickly wiped away her tears, "Husband, your leg..."

Yun Qingliang touched his leg with a wry smile, and comforted his wife: "It's okay, the doctor has already set my bone, and it will be fine to take care of it."

This is... a broken leg? !

Mrs. Song gasped: "...Go home, let's go home."

Yun Qingliang could only smile wryly.

He is out now. Two days ago, he really thought he would die in the cell.

Yun Qingpeng carried his brother back to the room, then went out to talk to his son, and gave the space to the husband and wife.

Yun Qingliang: "I see."

He was let out without knowing why, only now.

He leaned against the bed, called his daughter in, and looked at her: "Yao'er, what do you think, if you don't want to be a concubine, father will refuse, and the prefect Lin won't do anything just because our family refuses, he A good officer."

The life of a wealthy family is not so easy.

His original intention was to let his daughter marry a similar family as his main wife.

Yun Shuyao looked at his pale face and shook her head: "Father, if my daughter is willing, this is also the best choice for our family."

If he knew that their family had nothing to do with the magistrate's family in the end, what would Wu Peng, who was hurt by his face, do?

He is not an open-minded person.

Even if they didn't dare to come out and wanted to do something secretly, their family had no good way.

And she also went to the gate of the yamen for a stroll, even if she didn't see it too clearly, she still had a rough impression that Lin Ruhai, married is not bad.

Yun Qingliang stopped talking, and tightly clenched his hands in his sleeves into fists.

He's still...too weak.

He will not be able to participate in this year's Qiu Wei, and the next time will be three years away.

When he wakes up, if his daughter's life is not good, they will support her.

If she can't get up, her daughter will be at a disadvantage and won't even be able to come to the door.

Thinking about it, Yun Qingliang's jaw line tightened.

-

The Lin family got a reply and quickly invited a matchmaker to come to the door.

Yun Shuyao is the eldest daughter of an upright scholar's family. Although she is not marrying a wife, but a concubine, there are corresponding procedures to follow.

The procedure can't be compared with the complicated three-media and six-engagement process of marrying a wife, but it's not like a girl can easily go through the process by offering a cup of tea to her concubine.

The Lin family sent a matchmaker to the door, with dowry gifts and dowry money, and also picked the nearest auspicious day, and it took less than a month for the Yun family to prepare.

Employment silver 500 taels.

To the Lin family, this may not be a big deal, but to their family, the 500 taels is more than their family's property.

Mrs. Song got busy, taking care of her husband who was lying on the bed raising his legs, and at the same time making arrangements to buy a dowry for her daughter.

If you are not to be favored after entering the Lin Mansion, and your daughter still has these dowries, you must arrange it perfectly.

She discussed with her husband that all the things from the Lin family will be given to her daughter as a dowry. The dowry they prepared for her before, except for some inappropriate things, will also be given to her daughter.

For the 500 taels, she originally considered buying two shops in the city, and she would collect monthly rent in the future, which would be stable, but her daughter proposed that she wanted to buy an unused hill in the village.

Yun Qingliang didn't understand: "Yao'er, why do you want to buy mountain land? There is no output in the mountain land, that is to say, the villagers will dig wild vegetables, cut grass and collect firewood, so there is no profit in buying it."

As for the promising fertile land, it has already been owned, and no one is willing to sell it.

Yun Shuyao: "I want to grow some fruits and flowers there, and also raise some poultry. When the time comes, my uncle will help me keep an eye on it. Selling it will also be a profit."

She is a wood-type supernatural power, and she is only at the first level now, but she will gradually level up with more exercise. After reaching the top of the mountain, there will be more opportunities to exercise.

Yun Qingpeng nodded without hesitation. He knows these things best in the village: "Uncle will watch for you. It is indeed okay to raise some poultry. Mountainous land is not valuable. Go to Lizheng and talk about it. Two or more can be won."

Fertile fields are different. The best paddy fields cost more than ten taels per mu.

Buying the mountain and hiring two people to take care of it can cost a few dozen taels, and the rest of the money can be used to buy a shop. You can buy a bigger one with a better location, so the rent is higher.

Since people from Zhifu Lin's family came to the door and the news spread, the Yun family suddenly became lively.

When Yun Qingliang had an accident before, his classmates and friends avoided seeing him, but now that they knew that he was married to the prefect, their attitudes immediately warmed up, and they all came to congratulate him with gifts.

Yun Qingliang accepted it with a smile, and didn't say that he wanted to break up with them, but he had something to say in his heart.

From the mouths of these people who came to congratulate her, Yun Shuyao learned more news.

The Lin family were very tight-lipped and did not dare to say much about their master, but it can be inferred that the old lady and the magistrate's wife should not be on good terms.

Because it is a very embarrassing thing for the wife of the main house to hire a girl from a good family from outside.

If the main wife is unable to give birth, she will usually carry the maid from the side of the main wife. If she thinks the status of the maid is too low, she can also choose a suitable person from the woman's family, so that the blood born will have the blood of the woman's family.

But now the old lady of the Lin family first hired a merchant girl to get started, and now she hired a girl from the Yun family.

She is the daughter of a scholar, and in terms of status, she has a higher status than a businesswoman.

This is definitely not a good thing for the wife of the main house.

Song guessed: "The magistrate's wife has been married into the Lin family for ten years, and she has nothing to do with her for ten years. The old lady should be very dissatisfied, but Yaoer, you must respect the magistrate's wife when you enter the door, you know? She My father is Duke Rong, even though Duke Rong has passed away, he should not be underestimated."

She repeatedly urged: "The old lady can't be negligent, your needlework is good, do some needlework for the old lady, and express your heart."

The two younger brothers are 13 years old and 11 years old. In this era, they can no longer be regarded as children. In two years, the older one will be able to marry a wife.

Yun Heng was very sad: "Sister, we will study hard, and in two years, I will be able to take the examination of scholar, and I will definitely support you in the future."

These things happened in the family, as the eldest son, his parents never hid it from him from the beginning to the end.

He felt deeply powerless.

Dad had an accident, he can't do anything, now my sister is going to enter the gate of the magistrate's house, if he is bullied, he can't do anything either.

Yun Shuyao couldn't help but patted the Qingjuan young man's thin shoulders: "Sister believes in you."

"I won't be at home anymore. You are the biggest one in the family. You have to take good care of your father and mother. For your father, you should read more and don't make him work too hard."

Dad broke his leg this time, missed this autumn, and was already preparing for the next autumn, and he never put down his books in bed every day.

Originally, his attitude towards Qiu Wei was that I was lucky to lose my life. If he failed the exam, he planned to be a teacher to the children of the rich family. Now his attitude has changed, and he has become much more positive.

In addition, Wu Peng came to apologize and give gifts.

It is said that there was some misunderstanding, and now everyone laughs away their grievances.

If the Yun family hadn't agreed, would he have come to the door?

Let alone an apology.

If he didn't accept it, he thought that the Yun family would not let him go.

Yun Qingliang returned most of the expensive gifts.

If he wasn't too weak, he wanted to throw it all back in his face.

The day before the wedding, Mrs. Song came to her daughter's room secretly and gave her a plan to avoid the fire.

With a bare face, she looked left and right, but she didn't dare to look at her daughter: "...Here, take a look. At that time, don't be afraid, Mr. Zhifu...he knows how to do it, so what...just now It will hurt a little at first, but it will pass after a while..."

Yun Shuyao took a look at the slightly distorted and veiled picture of Chun Gong, and lowered her head pretending to be shy: "Mom, I understand."

Upon hearing her reply, Mrs. Song heaved a sigh of relief and couldn't wait to leave. Oh, it's really embarrassing to tell her daughter these things.

Yun Shuyao raised her head, looked at her back, and picked up the fire avoidance map amusedly to look through it.

To be honest, she is the same age as Lin Ruhai.

Moreover, although she was busy in her previous life and didn't have much free time, she had talked twice before, and she was no stranger to things between men and women.

The life of a social animal has already been deeply experienced. If you are not too desperate, you will not be in a car accident when you get off work late at night, and you will go to the extreme survival map. Now you have to enter the backyard of the Lin Mansion. In a sense, this It's her new job.

Food and housing are included, and there is monthly silver every month.

As for the specific working atmosphere and difficulty of work, she will not know until she joins the job.

If she can, she intends to fish well in the office, to be a dull salted fish - she hasn't had enough rest yet.

On the second day, when the auspicious time came, Yun Shuyao, who was dressed up in a pink wedding dress, was carried by Yun Heng into a wedding sedan chair, and was carried unsteadily all the way to the Lin Mansion.

Today, the magistrate is very happy, and he also set up a few tables for guests.

This has nothing to do with Yun Shuyao, she doesn't need to entertain guests.

She just needs to sit on the bed in the room, with a hipa on her head, listening to the faint chatter and laughter coming from outside, and waiting for the arrival of the host.

Mother Wang who came to propose marriage was waiting beside her, and there was another maid beside her, and the room was quiet.

Until I heard a beaming call from the little girl outside the house: "Here we come, the master is here!"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly warmed up.

"Master is here."

"Master, this way please!"

"Tread, step, step..."

Hearing the footsteps getting closer, Yun Shuyao silently grasped the handkerchief in her hand.

I'm going to meet her new boss. I don't know how her new boss is, is she good to get along with?
