Mrs. Tang stood upstairs, watching Mingwei send Tang Xi away for a short distance. Bookmark this site
Tang Xi said something, Mingwei bowed, then stood there and watched him leave the garden.
When he stepped out of the garden gate, Tang Xi looked back.
Mrs. Tang asked: "Miss Ming Qi...when did you meet Xiao Shi?"
Bailing glanced at her and replied carefully: "It was a few days ago, when you came back. The eldest lady asked Miss Mingqi to come over to see your illness, and the tenth master later went out to inquire about your condition."
"So, they have only known each other for a few days?"
"Yes."
Mrs. Tang said nothing more.
When Mingwei came up again, she still had a kind face, talking and laughing.
……
Some words travel very quickly in a big house.
After Mrs. Tang recovered from her illness, the story about Miss Ming Qi quickly spread among the servants.
Some people say that the old lady was kind-hearted and saved the orphan **** the road. Unexpectedly, her medical skills cured the old lady's chronic illness.
Some people also say that they heard that Miss Ming Qi was a famous lady from Northern Qi, who was engaged to the prince, but somehow ended up in Southern Chu. Fortunately, the old lady came to her rescue, otherwise she, a weak girl from a boudoir family, would have fallen into who knows what kind of situation she would have fallen into.
So, this became a beautiful thing that helped each other, and everyone talked about it.
But this trend only lasted a few days and then changed.
"Hey, have you heard?" Two maids gathered together to whisper, and one of them spoke mysteriously.
"What did you hear? Which one is your sister talking about?"
"Of course it's Master Shi's business."
"Master Ten, what's wrong with Master Ten?"
"No way, you haven't heard the news yet?" The maid looked surprised, as if the other party was so out of date.
Another maid hurriedly asked: "What's the rumor? Sister, tell me about it?"
The first one was mysterious and lowered his voice: "Master Ten is getting married..."
"Who doesn't know this? Otherwise, what is our house busy with recently?"
"Hey, that's not what I'm talking about! I'm talking about Miss Mingqi who was rescued by the old lady, you know that, right?"
"Of course, who in the house doesn't know? What's wrong? Isn't sister talking about the Tenth Master?"
"It's just the same thing. I heard that Mr. Shi would talk to Miss Ming Qi for a long time every day when he went to the old lady's place to say hello..."
"Isn't it?" the maid exclaimed, "Master Ten is getting married soon! Miss Ling lives in Lanxinyuan!"
"Who says it's not the case? But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem to matter. Once you marry a wife, you can take concubines!"
The maid covered her mouth and exclaimed: "Taking a concubine just after getting married is very disrespectful to the Ling family!"
"Maybe it will be a few months later, but Master Ten's intention should be the same." The previous person said, "Have you seen Miss Mingqi? She looks like that, and I heard she is a lady from a famous family. , Her manners, talent and skills are all good, so it’s not surprising that Master Shi has taken a liking to her."
"That's what I say, but isn't this Miss Ming Qi engaged? I heard she is also a future princess."
"What's the point? No matter how beautiful she is, she is still a helpless orphan when she arrives in Nanchu? Northern Qi will definitely not admit it, otherwise where will the royal family's face be? So, if Miss Ming Qi If you are smart, you should hurry up and take care of Master Ten. Even if you are young, you will still have good food and clothing in the future, otherwise..."
"That's what you said..."
"It's just that Master Ten is getting married soon. I feel sorry for Miss Ling..."
……
Ji Xiaowu finally found an opportunity to meet Mingwei and asked: "What's the matter with you? Why are you seducing Mr. Tang Shi? Do you know that there are rumors about you in the house now? It’s ugly!”
Mingwei looked aggrieved: "What did my cousin say? Hooking up is so ugly, how dare you say this to your cousin? It's a waste that we even got engaged..."
"No, no, no!" Ji Xiaowu wanted to cover her mouth, "Can you not mention this? Do you want your reputation anymore?"
Ji Xiao’s head is already big.
Why does this woman live so freely? Look at how many men she has been involved with?
First, he was his cousin who had been engaged since childhood, and then he fell in love with His Royal Highness the King of Yue. I heard that in the northwest, Lord Hu was chasing her and asking if she wanted to be a princess. Now that she came to Southern Chu, there was actually a rumor Gossiping with Mr. Tang Shi.
"Forget it before, but this time it's different. Do you understand?"
"I don't understand what my cousin said."
Ji Xiaowu said angrily: "Don't lie to me! In the past in Qi, no matter how much you did, we could cover it up. Now there are only two of us in Nanchu, living under the fence of others and letting people eat and drink. You are not afraid of others. Let’s make a lie come true?”
"There's nothing wrong with making a lie come true!" Ming smiled, "Look at our current situation, it's really not possible without a backer. Now that I have saved the old lady, I can still get some courtesy, but the kindness will come one day In the end, how can a marriage relationship be reliable? If Master Tang really..."
"Ming Xiaoqi, you've had enough!" Ji Xiaowu was so angry that he wanted to strangle her to death, "I don't believe you would be a concubine! What on earth are you doing? Tell me clearly and don't let me sleep. No sleep!"
Looking at his face turning red, Mingwei felt a little guilty. The cousins fell into Nanchu and depended on each other for their lives. It seemed a bit unkind to tease him like this.
So she comforted: "Don't worry, cousin, I won't be a concubine, and Mr. Tang has no such idea, I'm just showing it to some people."
"Some people?" Ji Xiaowu was confused.
He thought about it carefully and recalled what happened to Rilan Xinyuan that day, and was surprised: "Are you talking about the Ling family?"
"Yes."
"What on earth are you doing?"
"Watch it for two days. My cousin will know it then. Don't worry."
Ji Xiaowu didn't want to ask again~IndoMTL.com~ before leaving, he spat at her: "I can't worry so much! I can't rest assured for a moment when I'm with you! Even if it's a lie, think about it My reputation is so bad. How can you get married when you go back? Please stop playing around, aunt!"
Ming sent him away with a smile, thinking that they wouldn't be able to get married anyway, and his reputation would be ruined...it didn't seem to matter.
There was a buzz in the house, how could Lan Xinyuan know nothing about it?
Miss Ling's maids gathered together to talk, and one of them had an angry look on his face: "What's going on with Mr. Tang? Didn't you deliberately find a chance to see the lady two days ago? Why did he suddenly..."
"Is there some misunderstanding?" Another asked, "I don't think Master Tang Shi is that kind of person!"
"What misunderstanding! I went for a walk near Mrs. Tang's garden in the morning, and I saw them talking together with my own eyes! How come there is no difference between men and women? Mr. Tang is both getting married, so why doesn't he do anything about it? Know the taboos!"
"Is it true? Hey, men are really unreliable. I think Mr. Tang really likes the young lady, but he also..."
"Miss Ming Qi, I saw her. She is quite pretty. No wonder she fascinated Master Tang Shi. But even if you want to take a concubine, you can't be so disrespectful to the lady, right? The wedding hasn't even been held yet. What about..."
"Isn't it? What should we do now? Should we tell the lady?"
"Of course you can't say it. After saying this, the lady is still not angry to death? This marriage is a good relationship between the two families, and it is impossible to cancel it because of this matter."
"Same."
The maids all sighed.
"What are you talking about?"
When Miss Ling's voice came, the maids jumped up and started fighting.
"Miss! No, we didn't say anything..."
