Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 315 Princess Beijing ([-])

The scorching sun slanted to the west, and the sunlight passed over the roof of the main building of Conglvtang and fell under the eaves.

The princess of Beijing County with exquisite makeup slowly waded into the sunlight, and the gold bracelet on her head reflected colorful rays of light in the setting sun.These colorful lights did not scatter from one place, but following her gentle steps, there was a gemstone pendant hanging from the head of the walking hairpin, shaking gently, like the Buddha's radiance hanging above the princess's head.

When she fully stepped into the setting sun streaming down from the eaves, her rich and dignified, beautiful and bright face became even more rosy.

Her gorgeous pomegranate dress left a shadow in the sun, which was reflected on the wall next to her.The shadow walked slowly with the rich people, but did not make a sound.

The etiquette and posture of a wealthy family and a dignified woman are perfectly reflected in the steps of the princess of Beijing County.

However, when she came to the window near the sound source, she also forgot her honorable status, and leaned slightly to peer in through the gap in the window.

"It's Brother Rong..."

She saw the people in the room, besides Brother Rong and Grandma Zhu.Seeing that shameful scene, she only frowned slightly, not even a blush appeared on her face.

Looking at people through the cracks, you can still see clearly.You can even tell that Brother Rong's well-proportioned body is sweating non-stop, and you can see that Grandma Zhu, who used to be indifferent, elegant and dignified, looks weak and powerless at the moment.

Hearing another quite unique scream, what she once thought was the most indifferent and elegant woman in Jia's mansion was lying there trembling.

She paid close attention, and saw that Grandma Zhu's face was somewhat haggard, but there was a smile in the haggardness, a happy smile.The princess of Beijing County can swear that Grandma Zhu's expression at this moment will definitely make her unforgettable for the rest of her life.

There are many emotions in a weak smile, which can even infect people who are peeping outside the house.

The concubine of Beijing County sighed softly, and seeing Brother Rong showing a slight smile on his side face, he bent over and whispered affectionately to Grandma Zhu.

The elegant and dignified Grandma Zhu raised her head and smiled, more like a western oil painting.The princess of the county could see that the crystal clear dewdrops on Grandma Zhu's body seemed to be painted, and they stood on the white and flawless skin without slipping.

As a daughter of the Zhen family, she has been exposed to Western paintings since she was a child.Jinling is different from Shenjing. Westerners in Shenjing are concentrated in Honglu Temple, but Jinling can often communicate with Western and Nanyang merchants.Before she came to Beijing, she also studied painting with Westerners.

Seeing such a scene in the room now, I feel that any painting of figures I have seen in this life is not as shocking as the picture in the current room.

The beautiful picture is so harmonious.

Even the princess of Beijing County couldn't help but feel sad in secret, and felt sad when she saw the scene.

Youyou let out a long sigh, only to feel that the foreign silk clothes on her back were scorching hot in the setting sun.Que Kui straightened his body, turned his head and looked westward.

I saw that the sun was slanting on the side of the vertical ridge of Conglvtang, and it seemed to be only one step away from the main ridge, and it seemed to be thousands of miles away.

After staring blankly for a while, I saw the fiery sun moving slowly, slowly hiding half of my body behind the ridge of the green hall.

The shadow of Cong Lvtang shrouded her gradually, but she could still see the beautiful brilliance illuminating the western sky. The golden yellow color slowly turned into a shy crimson like a girl, like a fiery red rose in bud. The colors are absolutely beautiful.

The leaves of the green bamboos in the side yard of Conglvtang were also dyed golden again, and even a few tall plantains by the wall greedily stretched out their big leaves and swaggered in the golden and crimson light.

Half of the courtyard of Cong Lvtang was immersed in scarlet color and happy.

Without the setting sun, the concubine of Beijing County still felt a chill.I was thinking that I shouldn't disturb this scene, so I went back to the study to read the book.But suddenly he heard the woman in the room whispering, persuading, and aroused her curiosity.

Looking into the gap on the window again, I saw a maid with delicate eyebrows inside at some point.The maid stood honestly on one side, while Brother Rong sat on the other side of the couch. The indifferent and elegant Grandma Zhu knelt and held her body with her head down.

The princess of the county slowly took the handkerchief from her waist, and wiped her thin lips slowly.Seeing that Grandma Zhu raised her head suddenly, she pulled the maid next to her, as if she wanted the maid to learn something.

She watched it for a while, and her mind was shocked again.When she was in Jinling, she heard family members talk about the situation of Jia's family, and the master of Zhen's family even expressed regret.Brother Zhu of the Jia family married the prostitute daughter of the Qinggui Li family. Brother Zhu went to school at a young age, and Mrs. Li was the daughter of the Guozijian Jijiu.

The future of the Jia family should have been in Jia Zhu and Li's body.

Unfortunately, Jia Zhu died young.

The widowed Mrs. Li is as calm and calm as a plum blossom in the white snow. In the impression of the princess of the county, Mrs. Li is dignified and has an orchid-like temperament.However, at this moment, he lowered his head with the servant girl.

Looking at the intoxicated look on Li's face and the charming and enchanting eyes, the princess of the county couldn't believe it at this moment.This kind of disbelief is not because of doubting the authenticity of this matter, but because she feels that her temperament is not suitable, and it is not something that Li Shi, the grandma of Zhuzhu, can bow her head to do.

The princess of the county took a closer look at Uncle Xiaorong again, secretly thinking that the exact appearance was so different from the one in the painting.

Youyou thought about it, and left the eaves in a daze.Going back to the study, he smiled wryly to himself.Picking up the book that had been put down, and opening it again, the scene I saw just now was thrown out of the blue for a while.

I don't know how long it took before a maid from Ningguo Mansion came outside to deliver meals.

The princess of the county only heard the movement, and went out of the study.It turned out that the maids of the Ningguo Mansion sent a portion of meals, including those of Grandma Zhu and Brother Rong.

She glanced at the room on the other side for a while, and said politely: "Leave all the meals."

The maids of the Ningguo Mansion just followed suit, but the people around the princess of the county showed doubts.The princess of the county said: "It's good to leave the shares of Brother Rong and Grandma Zhu in the study."

"..."

When Uncle Rong and Grandma Zhu came out of the room and went to the study, they saw that the original mess had been cleaned up.There are also several boxes of food on the table, and the aroma of the food inside can still be vaguely smelled.

Uncle Rong was already hungry. Although he was suspicious, he didn't bother to think about it.He laughed and said: "Let's sit down and eat, Suyun also sits down. There are no outsiders here, don't wait until your grandma and I have eaten."

Suyun lowered his head and quietly glanced at Grandma Zhu, and replied cautiously: "I will eat the rest after uncle and grandma have used it up. This is the rule."

Li Wan lightly brushed his temple hair, and said: "Since Brother Rong said it, it's not your bad manners. You should make up for it today. I can't give you anything else. Having a meal together is considered Brother Rong's kindness to you." rewarded."

Brother Rong heard the word 'reward' strange, but he didn't know what to say.Just smiling, La Suyun came over and sat down, and took the meal that the mansion had prepared for him and sent it to Suyun.

The rice eaten by the master and the maid is also different.Seeing Suyun, she was nervous and moved for a moment, and she was a little afraid to move.

Grandma Zhu acted as if she hadn't noticed, and said gracefully, "Eat it, everyone is hungry, can we wait until it's cold before eating?"

Grandma's words can be regarded as tacit consent, Suyun just dared to use chopsticks to pick up rice but did not dare to reach out to pick up vegetables.

Seeing this situation, Li Wan took the initiative to pick up some vegetables for the maid, and said lightly: "We are no better than others, and you and I will support each other in the future. Although we are masters and servants, we should be like supporting sisters." .”

How could Suyun dare to say anything, grandma's behavior was so unusual, all she could do was bow her head to eat.Uncle Rong didn't think too much, brought Suyun's original rice from the box, and chewed it without hesitation.

The rice eaten by the maids is indeed not as good as the rice eaten by the masters in terms of taste.

But Brother Rong didn't have much other feelings, he was never too picky when it came to rice.Especially in such a social age, many people still can't eat white rice.Although these expenses in Ningrong and Rongfu are exaggerated, they are indeed necessary.

Otherwise, with his temperament, everyone in the house would have eaten the same kind of rice.

There is no way, the bigger the family, the more important it is to be respectable to the outside world.Many things are like admission tickets, invisible rules of the circle.A family where the master and servant eat the same kind of rice will never enter the circle where the master and servant share different rice.Just like why simple golf training courses are expensive, this is the most elementary and simple ticket, and it is the threshold set by the class intentionally or unintentionally.

The rarer it is, the easier it is to be monopolized, it will become a kind of threshold.Even if the existence of those things is meaningless, even if it is not of such high value, its entry threshold attribute will give it a very high price.

Uncle Rong and Grandma Zhu ate in the study, Suyun was cleaning up the room, and Princess Beijing came over generously.

A few people were about to pack their luggage, the princess of the county glanced at it briefly, and said with a smile: "How can there be so many rules in the family, I still live in your house."

Brother Rong nodded slightly, he didn't care much about these cumbersome etiquettes.However, Grandma Zhu had always been decent and behaved, but even so, she gave a small gift to the princess of the county face to face.

Princess Jaejun looked sideways and carefully.

Grandma Zhu's face had already recovered its blood color, but there were some traces of washing between her face and hairline.The same is true for the maid next to her, and even the princess of the county can see that it is a little inconvenient for the maid to walk.

The princess of the county smiled lightly and said: "You don't have to be restrained, our families are free to come and go, if you want to talk about it, I have to call you sister-in-law. Since you have run out, I will pick up the books here and go back."

After finishing speaking, he walked slowly to the long desk desk, picked up the upside-down scroll on the desk, and held it in his hand.

Brother Rong woke up suddenly. At first, he thought that the servant girl in the mansion came in to tidy up the study. From the looks of it, the study might not have been tidied up by the princess of the county.Thinking about keeping the food in the room is probably also the idea of ​​the princess.

Suddenly, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

Grandma Zhu also seemed to sense something was wrong.Although she couldn't figure it out, she recalled the look in the princess's eyes just now, and a little blush appeared on her pink cheeks.

After all, Grandma Zhu's psychological quality is not as good as that of Wang Xifeng and Xue Baochai, and she just goes shy when faced with such an occasion.There was no time to think, seeing that Suyun had already cleared the table, he hurriedly said: "Suddenly remembered that there are still some things to do in the West Mansion, I have to go back and deal with them first."

So, Brother Rong watched helplessly as Grandma Zhu Li Wan dragged Suyun away shyly.

She walked faster than the princess of Beijing who had just picked up the book, so that the princess of the county couldn't help but turn around and look at Brother Rong suspiciously.

Brother Rong coughed in embarrassment, and explained: "It's not what the empress thinks."

After hearing this, the princess of the county did not change her expression.Kuan Kui sat down and left in no hurry, said: "It's just something about the bed in the room, there's nothing shameful about it."

"Huh?" Uncle Rong's eyes widened, completely unexpected that the princess of the county would point it out so bluntly.

I just listened to the imperial concubine's words: "It is understandable for a woman who has lost her husband for many years to have such a situation. Although it is rumored that it has ruined the etiquette and reputation, everyone thinks it is a nasty thing. In my opinion Come on, causing a woman to spend her entire life guarding an empty room is rather dirty."

"Ahem..." Brother Rong didn't know how to reply.Why didn't I think that the princess of Beijing County had such a shocking opinion before.He knew that he was a scum, but when he heard a woman defending him as a scum, he really had a thousand words in his heart but didn't know how to say them.

The princess of the county did not raise her eyes and glanced at Brother Rong, and continued: "Don't think that I understand Mrs. Li because I approve of your deviant behavior. Although it is a family matter of the Jia family, I can talk to you about it." If you have a relationship, it will also affect several other families. Not to mention that Li is still the daughter-in-law of the West Mansion, and you also have a lot of wives and concubines."

Brother Rong said awkwardly: "Your Majesty..."

"Don't worry, this matter will rot in my stomach forever, and I will warn other people not to come here. Generally speaking, I sympathize with Mrs. Li, and as a woman, I also understand her difficulty."

"Forehead……"

The princess of the county said unhurriedly: "As long as I live here for a day, you just have to rest assured that no one will disturb you, and there will be no gossip in Conglvtang. If you need help, you can even Help a group of Mrs. Li come here to see you."

"My lady, why is this?"

The princess of Beijing County finally raised her head, looking at Brother Rong with clear and bright eyes.Seriously said: "Since the founding of this dynasty, the newly built chastity archways in just a hundred years have exceeded the total number of chastity archways built in the 300 years of the second Ming Dynasty. In a hundred years, [-] to [-] archways were built. These [-] to [-] Under the archway are the souls of [-] to [-] poor women. I don’t like it, I don’t want to see Li Shi, like them, be lonely all his life until his death.”

"Thank you, Ma'am, for your consideration." Brother Rong laughed.

"Caring? It's not caring about you." The princess of the county scolded with a cold face, "Brother Rong was born as the head of the Jia family. He didn't manage well, but he was buried in the gentle village with all his heart. The two aunts and aunts of the West Mansion let you go Yes, it’s against human ethics.”

"This..." Brother Rong scratched his ears. Could it be that the princess of the county is a female pioneer in the feudal era?
