Chapter 375
Concubine Jia was away, and Chen Zhaoyi stayed behind closed doors due to her disfigurement. The harem became much more stable. Shang Kelan found things for herself every day, and she didn't feel idle at all.

But in Zuo Xiangfu, someone is about to fall ill.

……

In the morning, the backyard of Zuo Xiangfu.

In the garden, a woman wearing a royal blue jacket and a white fox fur scarf walked around, holding a stove in her hand, with a very depressed expression on her face.

Finally, she couldn't help but stomped her feet and complained: "Damn it, I'm already the young wife of Zuo Xiangfu, why don't you give me the housekeeper right of the Shang family?"

As soon as Zhang Baozhi finished speaking, Yuexiu, the dowry maid next to her, persuaded: "Young madam, no matter how patient you are, you will have to wait until the time to return home. You are the imperial concubine who spoils the imperial harem. At that time, you will still be invited to the New Year's Eve banquet in the palace, and then I will make friends with the concubine Chen and get acquainted, can the concubine Chen help you?"

As soon as Zhang Baozhi said this, Zhang Baozhi's eyes lit up immediately, and he clapped his hands happily and said, "Yes, I am the little girl of the Concubine Chen! I heard that my husband and the concubine Chen's brothers and sisters are good friends. As the only sister-in-law of the Concubine Chen, can she not wait for me?" How am I?"

As she said that, she happily nodded Yuexiu's head, and said: "You are a smart girl, it's not in vain that I love you so much. Well, I will definitely please Concubine Chen at the palace banquet!"

Yuexiu rubbed her forehead, then looked at her with some hesitation and said, "But Young Madam, you made Master so angry before, can Master forgive you?"

Zhang Baozhi snorted, and said indifferently: "At my father's place, my mother can just blow on the pillow. By then, I will be in the Zuoxiang mansion, and I'm afraid it's too late for him to come and make peace with me." Woolen cloth!"

Yuexiu smiled, and seemed to think of something again, and said, "What about the eldest lady?"

Zhang Baozhi stared blankly, she didn't know what idea came to her mind, she said with a sinister smile: "Hmph, bring her into Zuo Xiang's mansion too, let her be the eldest son's concubine!"

Yuexiu was taken aback, and looked at her in surprise: "Young Madam, is this okay? Master won't agree!"

Zhang Baozhi snorted coldly, glanced at her, and said contemptuously: "That bitch always mentions in front of me that she is the daughter of the first wife and I am the second daughter of the first wife, and always says that I am the daughter brought up under the name of my aunt. She has a taste of being a concubine!"

Yuexiu shook her head and said with a smile: "Then why did the young lady let her come to Zuoxiang's mansion as a concubine? I heard that there is a gambling and alcoholic Zhang Yuanwai in the city. He is almost 50 years old and likes beating women the most. Nine concubines were beaten to death by him in the room! Moreover, this member has some connections with the royal relatives, and the family is very rich, and if he has a relationship with him, the young lady will not worry about running out of money."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Baozhi was stunned for a moment, then frowned, looked at Yuexiu dissatisfied and said, "Why are you worse than Mrs. Ben?"

Yuexiu was startled, but then she came to her senses, hurriedly lowered her head, and said, "Please forgive me, Young Madam, this servant should..."

She was about to plead guilty, but suddenly she heard Zhang Baozhi laugh like a silver bell, then patted Yuexiu's hand, and said with emotion: "Okay, my wife likes a bad girl like you, so it's settled Madam Ben will write a letter to let mother settle this matter!"

Hearing this, Yuexiu, who lowered her head, couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, then pulled herself together and said with a smile: "Your servant understands!"

Seeing her respectful appearance, Zhang Baozhi's mood improved a lot, but when she smiled, a gleam flashed in her eyes:
Zhang Ruxue, let you pretend to be noble, but this time I will give you to that bad old man as a concubine, so you are ready to wag your tail and beg for mercy in front of me like a dog!

This night, the scholar's mansion.

As soon as Mr. Zhang got out of the carriage and returned to his room, Mrs. Zhang came over to serve him with a smile on her face. She cleansed his face and undressed him, which made Mr. Zhang blush a little.

"That's enough, it's all about old couples, what are you doing all this?"

Mr. Zhang was disgusted with his mouth, but he happily held Mrs. Zhang's hand in his eyes.

Mrs. Zhang is well maintained, and her skin is still smooth. She gave Mr. Zhang a look and said: "Master works hard all day for the whole family in the house, so what if I, a wife, do some small things for the master?"

Mr. Zhang smiled, sat down to drink tea, and said: "You didn't go to play the horse hanging, and invited your sisters to visit Zhucui Tower?"

Mrs. Zhang coughed, then sat beside him, holding his hand and said kindly: "Master, am I worried about Ruxue's marriage? She is almost seventeen, and her younger sister is married. If she stays, I'm afraid she will become an old lady in the Zhang family, how will she get married then? All the daughters-in-law who are the same age as her already have children!"

As soon as these words came out, Mr. Zhang's expression turned extremely ugly. He put down his teacup heavily, and snorted: "Isn't it a good thing you, mother and daughter, did? Let Baozhi marry Ruxue to the Zuo Xiangfu, let's not say it. I have always been targeted by the leftist these days, if this continues, I am afraid I should ask myself to go back to my hometown in order to protect the scholar's residence!"

Mrs. Zhang's heart skipped a beat, and she said cautiously, "It won't be so serious, right?"

As she said that, she felt aggrieved and touched her tears again: "Master, which mother doesn't want her daughter to marry well? After all, my concubine is Ruxue's stepmother, and Baozhi is not as noble as Ruxue. Look at her." In the past two years, the people who have been relatives either let Baozhi be a concubine, or let her be a common wife."

"But Ruxue is different. She comes from a good background, so she can't be the young wife of Zuo Xiangfu, but she can still be the wife of other high-ranking officials and nobles! As a mother, I haven't taken good care of Ruxue all these years? You Did you ever hear Ruxue say something about me as a mother in front of you?"

The more Mrs. Zhang spoke, the more energetic she became. Mr. Zhang was so overwhelmed by hearing this, he quickly clasped his fists and said: "Okay, okay, the deal is done, there is nothing to say now, show me, you give Ruxue What kind of family did you say?"

Mrs. Zhang immediately took out a portrait of a handsome young man, and said with a smile: "That's him, this Zhang Yuanwai from the city. There are not many concubines, and they have never married a regular wife!"

"The most important thing is that he has a good temper and never hits anyone! Ruxue was married to a serious first wife, and she wants to have a family tree. She still has money, so she's not afraid of starvation or cold!"

Seeing what Mrs. Zhang said, Mr. Zhang was really moved. He held the portrait for a while and looked at her suspiciously. Then he looked at her suspiciously and said, "Look at the portrait, this person is really good. How old is he?"

Mrs. Zhang's eyes lit up, and she said with a smile: "21, just the age to spoil my wife!"

Hearing this, Mr. Zhang nodded in satisfaction, and said: "Let him come to the house to meet, so that I can be satisfied."

Mrs. Zhang frowned, snatched the portrait with a "swoosh", and said angrily, "You don't trust me? Why don't you spend half a month carefully selecting a husband for Ruxue! When Ruxue becomes an old girl, don't blame her for blaming me for being a mother!"

Master Zhang saw that she was about to lose his temper again, although he still had some hesitation in his eyes, he still compromised and said, "Well, it's up to you."
