Chapter 1286 Willing to be an ugly girl 13
Xining opened it and saw four house deeds and one land deed. Look at the place above. There are shops in the best locations in Kyoto everywhere. The other one is the land deed that leads to Zhuangzi. I couldn't help but look at Mrs. Akiko in shock: "This is this?"
No matter how much powder she has on her face, Mrs. Mingzi can't hide her loneliness: "These four shops were originally meant for parents and you to live in separate places. Since he is already someone else's son, let him ask the mother where he wants to go. ”
"Mother~" Xi Ning's voice was well-chosen, a little surprised, partly blamed, and the rest full of worry.
Mrs. Akiko turned around and smiled, grabbed her hand and put the box in front of her: "That's fine, it all belongs to my honorable son."
Xining thought for a while and put it away, but said: "I'll keep it for now. If mother changes her mind someday, just come and get it from me."
Tsk, it fell into my pocket, can I still take it out? At the worst possible outcome, some of the money received will be given to her own mother. Even if Michichi Fujiwara shaves his head and becomes a monk early next year, the master's three brothers who are still serving in the imperial court can more or less guarantee that she will have enough food and clothing and her status will remain the same.
After saying this, Mrs. Mingzi smiled, half-baring her black teeth: "Zunzi has indeed grown up. Don't worry, mother still has some food here, so she won't be so hungry that she will beg for food. There are also your three brothers. Even if it doesn't work, the worst is to become a monk. Go as a bhikshuni.”
"Mom is joking. The three brothers are all filial and serve in the court. My daughter should also study hard to bring honor to her mother." Xi Ning's mouth was full of sweet words.
Thinking of Ai Ye, a seller seeking glory, it was a shame that the body owner was raised by her since childhood, but in the end, she sold the body owner for the chance of her daughter entering the palace.
Xining smiled: "How does Gaye plan to arrange Aiye's daughter? It seems that as long as she gets married within 49 days, she doesn't have to stay for three years."
"Exactly, I am also worried about this matter. I have already asked people to go to her home to report the funeral, and we will wait until her family comes." Mrs. Mingzi said with a bit of helplessness: "She was still young, just in time to get married, or she could wait three years . It seems that it is up to her elders to avoid being outspoken."
What, wait three years before looking for someone else? ! This is not possible, even if Mrs. Lunzi is heartless and points out that Kassapa is doing something wrong, she can help her daughter and stuff her into the palace. It was like this before. Kasyapa kept it with Lunzi and entered the palace three years later.
Maybe the reason why the body master died so soon after giving birth to his third child had something to do with Kassapa. This time we can't repeat the same mistakes again. Different from the previous mission, this time we have to mess up the destiny as much as possible, so that the body owner has a chance to survive.
Xining rolled his eyes: "What's so difficult about this? Just be my father's concubine."
"Huh?" Mrs. Akiko was stunned.
Even the maids around him were stunned. How could they force a girl of flower age into her father's room in front of her mother.
"Mom, think about it carefully." Xining slowly explained the reason: "Mrs. Lunzi often sends women to her father, and she gets a good reputation. If you don't send them, naturally many people will send them to her. My father is old. There is nothing wrong with having multiple women to take care of him. Aiye's family would not say anything if he promised Kasyapa to his father. On the contrary, if Aiye is alive in heaven, he will know that Kasyapa has become his father's concubine. I’m happy. I can’t let anyone else take advantage of this.”
The implication is that if you don't give it away, Mrs. Renzi will also have this idea. Now, because Renzi is a person who respects the young lady, that is, Mrs. Akiko, she can only wait to see how Mrs. Akiko arranges it. Just wait for the right time to be a good person again.
Mrs. Mingzi thought for a while, then a slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "It's a good arrangement. I can get the care of the Taoist priest, and no one will have any objections. After Ai Ye is buried, I will find a suitable time to meet with the Taoist priest. Said.”
This time, in order to enter the palace to accompany the prince, Ai Ye made his daughter suffer a big loss. If you know that your daughter did not enter the palace in the end, but became a concubine to an old lover, you will probably be able to crawl out of the coffin no matter how happy you are. Furthermore, if she matches her up, Mr. Fujiwara would be much less suspicious of her, and he might even think that Ai Ye was not careful.
Seeing the profound smile on Mrs. Mingzi's face, Xining felt relieved. In this era, it is common for an old man to have a young wife. As long as he is good-looking enough, there are many opportunities to become the concubine or concubine of a high-ranking official. This society is quite tolerant of this. After all, nobles generally have short life spans and enjoy themselves in time.
At this time, the maids and slaves here have already put on the pot clothes they wear when going out, which use belts to tie up the sleeves and skirts, and wear "female hats" with gauze that reaches the waist. It's time to go out!
Xi Ning supported Mrs. Mingzi and walked slowly towards the door. There was a long queue behind him, including his own maid and Mrs. Mingzi's maid.
When he was about to board the ox cart, Master Fujiwara arrived late.
Xining quickly followed the others and knelt down to salute. But this kneeling is not a loss. If Mr. Fujiwara comes to see him off, it will prove that he is not demoted to the village and will gain face.
"Get up." Fujiwara Michizhang saw the clothes on her body. Although they were light, they were not mourning clothes after all: "I thought Ai Ye's unfortunate death would make you very sad. After all, she is your wet nurse."
Xining lowered his head and replied softly and calmly: "It's very sad, but after all, she is just hired, and Xizi is about to enter the palace, so it is not appropriate to wear mourning clothes. Just hide your sadness in your heart. But, isn’t it my father?”
The latter sentence, "Isn't it my father?" made Michichiro Fujiwara's heart skip a beat. It seemed that this daughter, who was a brat, must have known something.
He said "hmm" unnaturally twice, straightened his back and said in an official tone: "It's really gratifying to my father that you can be so sensible. That Akiko, my daughter taught her well. It would be great if all the children of the Fujiwara family could be so sensible." ”
It means that she was angry because she adopted her younger son to someone else. Or the third son who was tricked into becoming a monk, or both.
Mrs. Mingzi held her breath and tried her best to suppress the anger: "That's because the Taoist priest taught him well and let Zunzi know the pros and cons."
My daughter is only nine years old, but she is as sophisticated as an adult. If you don’t grow up and become sensible as soon as possible, you will be sold and your bones will be torn apart, and you don’t know how you will die!
Of course, Mr. Fujiwara heard the implication and raised his round eyebrows, but he couldn't get angry at the door, and he did owe a lot to Mrs. Akiko. Although Mrs. Akiko's left minister Yuan Gaoming dared to be angry and dare not speak out, Prince Shengming, as the adoptive father, asked him every time he saw her in the court why his granddaughter did not enter the palace and became another daughter.
Think about Prince Shengming, an old and immortal person, pretending to be an old fool and asking questions every time he sees him. This is all intentional.
In any case, Mrs. Akiko's family is also powerful, so it's better to sell some thin noodles.
So he changed the subject: "Your Majesty, this time I go to the village to study quietly. Don't tire yourself too much. If you need anything, ask someone to come and ask for it."
