C83 Adults from menarche to Mingwei

Normally, they would not walk around too much at home, so they avoided each other. But in those days when she was in the palace reading company, it was inevitable that the two of them would have to face each other. Xu Mingwei was naturally a proud and aloof person, there was no one who disliked her, and even went up to her with their lives on the line, but she was getting better with Xu Minglan, even becoming acquainted with the two Zuo family sisters. Xu Minglan seemed to have completely forgotten the bad things she said about the two of them previously, and also started to act like a big sister, taking care of her little sisters.

sighed to himself, people truly know how to change the most. Who would have thought that in the end, she and Fu Ninghui had drifted further and further away from each other, and had some kind of intimate relationship with Xu Minglan?

Fortunately, the days of the palace were busy and passed in the blink of an eye. Although Fang Liang's two masters' focus on teaching was still on the Eldest Princess, the title of National Arts Master was not for show. For the rest of the students, only thirty to fifty percent of it was for Xu Mingwei and the rest to use. When Xu Mingwei went back home and found the stove that was called the Mu Xiu [1] in the Master Fang, it would be weird if her knowledge did not improve. Before six years had passed, Liu Yi had already achieved something small. Lady Helan felt gratified by what he saw, at least he had not wasted these few years of time.

Xu Mingqiang had married five years ago, and Xu Mingmo had married out the next year as well. It was the same for all the people who made up the dowry for the officials, but because it was Prefecture Duke Mansion who wanted Xu Mingmo who was marrying into their family, Lady Liang ruthlessly added some dignity to her marriage.

In comparison, Xu Mingqiang felt more at ease. The old granny decided to change half of the capital city's land into banknotes to add onto the box. The other half was left untouched as Tian Qi followed Xu Mingqiang and led the banknotes to their husband's house. Xu Mingqiang did marry a long time ago, and after getting married three days later, she went back to meet with her sisters once, and after that, she never came back. From the letters sent back from others, Xu Mingqiang's days were pretty good. After getting married, not even two years have passed, she had already given birth to a big fat son, and her sister-in-law had even borne children. Her happiness made his family take her as a lucky star, and they all treated each other politely, making life easy for them.

It was common for Xu Mingmo to marry close to her throughout the year. Originally, she was just a bit petty and a bit angry, but now that she had married someone, her words were even more harsh. Her eyes constantly flashed with a mocking light, and her words were extremely unpleasant to hear.

The Lady Helan often used Xu Mingmo as a negative example and taught him a lesson, "Your Second Sister did not listen to my advice back then, but only saw the glory on the surface. Before the marriage, she had already taken a concubine and was already a bit shorter than her at the door. The second wife was also someone who loved to control. She had the rule of standing, the rule of lying down, and being a guest was good, but being a daughter-in-law was bad for her. If she could find fault with that, how could she live a life? "So the most important thing for a woman is to find a good wife, which is far better than finding a capable husband."

Xu Mingwei thought, this was probably what the people said, a teapot to a pot, how flamboyant a person was, if Xu Mingmo was big, she would be wasted by his wife and be swallowed by her, which would replenish her cultivation for many years.

These years, the concubinage s of the various houses were also successively marrying, but when they returned home, they felt that their worries and sorrows were few and far between. Xu Mingmei and Xu Mingwei started whispering to each other, that once this woman was married, she was going downhill. Hearing that, Xu Mingwei was overjoyed. She never thought that the Sister Mei, who was not worried at all, would actually be worried about her marriage in the future.

This made her think of Ji Rufu.

"How is your big cousin now? Who did you find? " Xu Mingwei tilted his head and asked.

The reason why the Ji family came to the Xu family's door six years ago when it was time for the new year celebration was to rely on the Xu family and to look for a marriage for Ji Rufu in the capital. Although the Old Lady Xu did not take up the task, although they were at home waiting for guests and even brought Ji Rufu along to visit them, the Lady Helan and the others knew what the old lady was thinking and did not introduce her to the ladies. As a result, Ji Rufu's family got nothing after the Spring Festival ended. In the end, it was the Qin family who urged the Lady Ji to meet them in the capital and made a poor marriage. The next year, Ji Rufu married Han Lin to Li Chang Cang.

Due to his ugly appearance and the fact that his mother was always ill, even though Li Changcang was a good official, no one in the capital was willing to marry their daughter and let her suffer. He was too arrogant to marry a village woman, so he wasted almost 30 years before he even had a family. Lady Ji asked people to inquire about this and they found out about his place. Ben was afraid that the family he was looking for was not quite what he had expected, but that her brother would be very happy, that no matter how ugly they were, they would not care, and that men would not care about their looks, and that the family would have some money, and that they would have plenty of it.

Naturally, Li Changcang was extremely satisfied with this marriage that had been sent to his doorstep. He did not have money nor looks, yet he already had women. Wasn't this the same as giving up all the advantages to his family?!

As the saying goes, a single slap isn't enough. Shouldn't two slaps be making a crackling sound? Even if Ji Rufu was extremely unwilling, and even if sheshead tried everything on the hunger strike, Ji Lianhai still steeled her heart. With those fierce words, even if Ji Rufu died, she would still gift the tablet to the Li Family when the auspicious time came. Ji Rufu was also afraid that she would become a lone soul and become a ghost. After dying, he had been in trouble for two or three months and had already given up on listening to Ji Lianhai marrying into his family.

"Now that her elder cousin has suffered a lot, her mother must be sick. She loves to torment people, but my elder cousin has to do everything that the maids can, otherwise, she will cry and scold her for being unfilial, turning her conscience black, going on a hunger strike and fighting for the wall with her head. My aunt went to see it once, came back crying and cried, but she did not dare go back afterwards, saying that she was afraid of being hurt by it." Xu Mingmei sighed, "This sadness is truly worthless, a son-in-law of the Han Lin Family had to pay for it."

Xu Mingmei continued, "That's why I said that once women get married, they start to decline. My mother had begun to show me people. I had overheard her at her door the other day. Seventh Sister, what do you think we should do? If only my mother could find me a house like this too, what would I do?

Xu Mingwei comforted her on the surface that he wouldn't, after all, Second Aunt still doted on her, but she couldn't even deceive herself. If there was a family with a third stage or higher family background that was the same as Ji Rufu's, would Lady Ji be willing to marry her daughter? The answer seems to be yes.

Look at our family, big brother is marrying the young miss of Uncle Ning's Mansion. It's not like my mother doesn't make things difficult for her, but I think my big brother really likes my sister-in-law too. We stick together and chat and laugh all day long. Xu Mingwei did a shy face-covering motion, allowing Xu Mingmei's heart to loosen a little.

"The likes of your brother and sister-in-law are, after all, a minority. Even if you look at our family, how many good mother-in-law like your mother has? Look at that second brother of the three rooms. Isn't he always noisy after getting married? He even left his second sister-in-law in the room to chat for a while. Xu Mingmei gently waved his fan and mumbled.

Xu Mingwei knew of this as well. Xu Mingsong from three rooms only got married at the end of last year, and Mu Rong was always staring at his daughter-in-law Lou's stomach. She really wanted to eat it in one night, and the next day, the child would die. Mrs Lou, under the pressure of her mother-in-law, became increasingly nervous. There had been no news of this marriage for more than half a year. Thus, she was in a hurry to leave Xu Mingsong in her room a moment too late. This was igniting Mu Rong's gunpowder barrel again. She valued her son's studies the most, so how could she stand to have her son's bad wife. She stood in the courtyard and began to curse, making the two in the room extremely embarrassed. Xu Mingsong did not dare to go home for half a month and stayed at the library all night.

People like the Mu Rong were also considered eccentric. They wanted horses to run away and horses to not graze, how could there be such a logic in the world? A good pair of young people would probably be frightened to the point that they wouldn't be able to give birth.

When she heard it, the sound of fanning could no longer be heard. When she turned to look, she realized that Xu Mingmei had already gone back to sleep, with the handle of the fan already half fallen out. In a short while, she would fall off the bed. She shook her head with a smile and was about to pick it up when a slender white jade hand was handed over to her. Xu Mingwei recognized it was Wan Rong, and asked while smiling, "What time is it?"

Wan Rong was afraid that she would wake Xu Mingmei up, so she replied softly, "It's already the third night, so Miss should go to sleep early. I still need to enter the palace early tomorrow morning."

Xu Mingwei replied as she laid back on the bed, not feeling the slightest bit of sleepiness. As she thought about the events of the first half of her life, a familiar yet unfamiliar wave of warmth assaulted her body. She thought to herself that this was bad, she wouldn't have come so early, would she?

He quickly got up to take a look, and sure enough, there was a blood-red ball on the snow-white bed. When Wan Rong heard the commotion, he held up the lamp to look, and saw the dirt on the bed with a single glance, so happy that he had almost broken the lamp. She hurried over and got Wan Yi and the others to get up and serve her, then got the people from the Xueju to come and pick her up.

All of a sudden, everyone in the courtyard was roused from their stupor. He asked for hot water, asked for news from the Moon, and asked for items from the Warm Palace … Not long later, the news of Xu Mingwei coming to Sunflower Water was transmitted to the Lady Helan's room. Xu Tiangang was still in a daze, she reached out to the side and fished, but there was no trace of her wife.
