First Concubine

Chapter 205 Gaining a Genius (3)

Shui Linglong and Leng Youru frowned at the same time! Mrs. Zhen covered her face and smiled, looked at Leng Youru and said: "Sister-in-law, I heard that you got a Guanyin to send children. Did you ask for it for Linglong? Linglong already has a pair of babies, why don't you give it to her? "Xiao Hui! "Leng Youru, you can't give birth on your own anyway, so it's boring to occupy the latrine and not poop, right?

Zhuge Liuyun's eyes were filled with a color whose meaning was difficult to distinguish.

 The old lady asked Xiang Leng Youru: "Is it really for Linglong?"

Leng Youru’s long eyelashes trembled and she said slowly: “No.”

Zhuge Liuyun gave Leng Youru a deep look: "Let's set the food!"

 A gauze cabinet separates the room, with men on the left and women on the right. Shui Linglong went into the inner room to feed her sister. Qiao Hui and the old lady laughed and teased her and her brother for a long time. When the two children were tired from playing and fell asleep, the food was served.

Because Brother Hao was too young, he followed Leng Youru to sit at the women's banquet. Leng Youru personally picked up the vegetables for Brother Hao and put them on a separate plate, including a small sea fish, two potatoes, three cucumbers, four green vegetables, five pieces of fresh meat, and half a bowl of rice. Brother Hao's eyes flashed with joy. However, as soon as he took the chopsticks to start eating, Leng Youru took away four pieces of meat from his plate. Brother Hao glared angrily and slapped his chopsticks on the table angrily!

The old lady hurriedly hugged Brother Hao into her arms, and while touching his fair and tender face, she looked at Leng Youru: "What's wrong with you? It's okay to give the child so little food, why are you... robbing him?" meat?"

Shui Linglong pursed her lips and said nothing. Children are used to it. When he first entered the house, Brother Hao was very hungry. He ate whatever was given to him. He never chose and did not dare to lose such a big temper. Now, as long as the old lady is present, he seems to have an indestructible backer and no one takes him seriously.

Leng Youru told him what happened in the morning: "...I have already told him not to roll the footers and buckle one piece of meat. Today he rolled four pieces, so he has to buckle four pieces."

The old lady felt distressed and refused: "How can such a young child remember what you said this morning? Besides, he didn't mean it!" He lowered his head and looked at Brother Hao in his arms, "Really? Our brother is not like that. You deliberately curled up the book, right?"

Mrs. Zhen advised: "Yes, mother is right. Children are all careless. Sister-in-law, you are too serious." After all, if they are not your biological children, you can abuse them as much as you want!

The men behind the gauze cupboard heard the commotion in the room. Zhuge Liuyun felt distressed and subconsciously wanted to plead for brother Hao. Mu Hua looked at him and said, "The child cannot be indulged. My mother and concubine taught me an excellent lesson."

Shui Linglong put down her chopsticks. She couldn't bear to lose the old lady's face, and she couldn't stand Brother Hao's arrogance and confidence, so she smiled and said: "I used to curl up my footers when I was a child. My mother often scolded me. Even if you don’t give me meat, it doesn’t matter if you don’t give me meat. If I eat vegetables, I will still turn over the pages of the book, more than ten pages at a time! Later, my mother got angry and gave me twenty books and asked me to read them. That’s enough. I’m not allowed to eat, drink, or find friends until I finish. I’m afraid of doing it, and I won’t dare to do it again.”

Leng Youru glanced at the old lady who was protecting the calf, and smiled lightly: "Well, this is a good idea. Forget it, brother Hao, you can continue to eat meat. Anyway, we will eat meat tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow, and for many days in the future. We are eating in Qingyouyuan, there is no need to come to Tiananju..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Brother Hao voluntarily leaving the old lady's arms and eating the vegetables in the bowl. snort! Anyway, Jin Jin only finished four pages when he finished more than a dozen pages, so it’s not embarrassing!

 In the second round, Leng Youru narrowly won!

After dinner, a few people stayed in the main room and chatted with the old lady for a while. Brother Hao kept a straight face and sat on the kang in a depressed manner. Shui Linglong conjured up a Rubik's cube like a magic trick, with six sides and fifty-four squares: "Brother Hao, look, Jin Jin is playing with it for you."

Prince An became interested: "Sister-in-law, what is this? Can you give me a try?"

"Rubik's Cube." Shui Linglong scrambled the Rubik's Cube and handed it to Prince An. Prince An took it in his hand and started spinning it confidently. Unexpectedly, after working hard for a few minutes, he discovered that this was not the case. He couldn't spell it out, so Qiao Hui took it in her hand and tried it, but it didn't work either! Mrs. Zhen was not convinced, why could Shui Linglong know it but the second wife couldn't? She also worked hard to turn it around for a long time, and she was so anxious that she was sweating profusely and wanted to smash it! The old lady couldn't help showing a surprised look, "What is this? It's boxy and seems to be quite difficult?"

Shui Linglong smiled and said: "A toy for developing intelligence, just suitable for Brother Hao's age. The more you play with it, the smarter you will be."

Brother Hao's eyes lit up and he licked the corners of his lips. Zhuge Yu stared, touched the corners of the Rubik's Cube and thought for a moment, and then carefully turned the grid. About three minutes later, he returned the Rubik's Cube to its original shape.

Shui Linglong secretly appreciated that it took her less than half an hour to play for the first time! Zhuge Yu raised his eyebrows at Shui Linglong and smiled, feeling a little embarrassed. Shui Linglong glared at him, took the Rubik's Cube and messed with it again. This time, she was going to give it to Brother Hao to play with. Before she handed it out, Mu Hua coughed lightly and said, "Can you... give it a try to me?"

"Of course." Shui Linglong smiled and handed the Rubik's Cube to his hand. Mu Hua took it, and like Zhuge Yu, he pondered for a while before making a big move.

 Shui Linglong seconds, when counting to fifty seconds, click! Mu Hua succeeded! Everyone was stunned! In Shui Linglong's memory, only Xun Feng's speed can rival her, and Xun Feng has been playing for many years, but Mu Hua... this is the first time. Is Mu Hua a genius?

Mu Hua felt everyone's attention and blinked sheepishly: "It seems easy, but no, I did it casually..."

 In the blink of an eye, it was early September, half a year after Yunli ascended the throne, he began to carry out the Queen Mother's decree and recruit beautiful girls from all over the country to fill the harem. Countless carriages poured into the capital from all directions, and the capital became more and more prosperous and crowded. In the afternoon of this day, the wedding invitation from Shangshu Mansion was delivered to the Prince's Mansion. Shui Linglong was stunned after reading the wedding invitation. Was there any mistake? Shui Lingxi is actually getting married again? So fast?

Mother Zhong twisted the thread in her hand and shook her head: "Oh my God, it's so immoral! How can the second lady marry another woman when her ex-husband's body is still cold? Although they are divorced, it's too..." Especially this She didn't even know what to say about the object.

Zhifan was a little gloating: "The second young lady bullied the eldest lady in the past. It's true that good and evil will be rewarded in the end. My last marriage was unfortunate and I finally escaped from the prison. Now I'm married to a businessman. I don't know what the master and the eldest lady think!" Look, Yi Nu, being a nun in a Buddhist temple for the rest of your life is better than being married to a businessman for the second time!”

Shui Linglong glanced at her and said calmly: "Don't forget that your second uncle is also a businessman."

Zhi Fan felt numb and had forgotten about this problem, but soon she argued: "It's different, Miss. Although the second uncle is a businessman, he is a son of an official family. His father is from Linzi City in South Vietnam. City Lord, at least the second uncle’s family background is good! Look who the second young lady has found. He will accompany his sister to the capital and take root in the capital. This... he is a local businessman!"

A meaningful smile flashed across Shui Linglong's eyes. Yes, how did a local businessman who first entered Beijing fall in Shui Hangge's eyes? Even if Shui Lingxi divorced once, she was so beautiful that it was not impossible for a high-ranking official to fill a house. Why bother to "sell it at a low price" to cheapen a small businessman? Unless, this businessman has a great background!

Mama Zhong yawned and asked, "By the way, what is the name of the future second uncle of Shangshu Mansion?"

Zhifan replied: "Li Jing."

"What? You asked me to marry a businessman? Is there anything wrong? Why should I marry a businessman when I am the legitimate daughter of the Shang Shufu?" In Changle Xuan, Shui Lingxi was furious as she held the big red wedding invitation!

Qin Fangyi twisted the handkerchief in her hand, looked at her daughter who was almost ferocious in anger, and said helplessly: "This is your father's decision, and I can't help it!"

"I won't marry!" Shui Lingxi sat down on the sapphire blue imperial concubine's couch decorated with pearls, picked up the soft pillow and kneaded it hard! After experiencing a failed marriage, she would never dare to marry anyone again, unless it was a good man who loved his wife as much as Zhuge Yu!

"Businessmen may not be bad, but those officials' children who pursue fame and wealth are the most hateful! Look at your second uncle and second aunt, although they are doing business, they are still prosperous? Their daughter has become a queen!" Qin Fangyi So comforting.

Shui Lingxi frowned displeased: "Mother! I am a royal concubine! How can I marry a businessman?"

Qin Fangyi firmly felt that she had been deceived by that smelly monk! If her daughter was really destined to be a royal concubine, how could Xun Feng die? Qin Fangyi suppressed her negative emotions and said softly: "Daughter, if you think so, you can learn from your second uncle and second aunt. Although you can't be a queen, you can be the queen's mother! You will give birth to a beautiful girl in the future. If my daughter is as beautiful as you, marry her into the palace and become a queen! Anyway, your second uncle’s family has pioneered the practice of businesswomen being queens, so they are not afraid of criticism from civil servants!”

Shui Lingxi began to think about it. She really gave birth to a daughter. She was so beautiful and charming that she was so charming that she was the most beautiful woman in the world. Then she won the favor of Yunli's son in one fell swoop and became the favorite of the harem from then on... Alas! She is so jealous of her daughter!

Seeing Shui Lingxi's silence, Qin Fangyi thought she had heard it and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "Besides, I secretly took a look in the flower hall and found that Mr. Li's appearance is no worse than Xun Feng's, and his conversational skills are extraordinary. He is a well-known and well-known man. "She really doesn't expect her daughter to be successful.

Shui Lingxi became excited again: "Mom! That's a businessman! How can he be on the stage? If you marry me to him, do you want me to be despised and ridiculed by the world with him from now on? I will never marry. !”

"What are you talking about?" Shui Hangge strode into the room. When he heard Shui Lingxi's words about refusing to marry until death, he scolded her sharply.

A hint of disgust flashed through Qin Fangyi's eyes, but she turned around and said softly: "Ms. sir, you are here."

 “Yeah!” Shui Hangge nodded, assuming the posture of an official.

Shui Lingxi's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of anger: "My daughter wishes to greet her father."

Shui Hangge's expression brightened a little, and he looked at his daughter, who was in the moonlight, and said, "You and Mr. Li have decided to get married in December. Mr. Li is not from the capital, and he will move into the Shangshu Mansion from now on!"

The fire in Shui Lingxi's heart suddenly started to burn: "Father! I will not marry a merchant! I am the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, why should I commit myself to a merchant as my wife? I will laugh out loud if I tell you!"

"Li Jing is a rare young talent, and he is worthy of being the princess's consort. You divorced her once, but people still want to marry you even if they don't mind that you are not perfect. You are so picky! That's right! You have such a high-spirited temperament, no wonder you lose out to your eldest sister in everything!" Shui Hange criticized coldly!

Shui Lingxi was most jealous of Shui Linglong. Shui Hangge's words were like burning oil. She instantly lost her previous rationality: "Father, don't think that I don't know what your wishful thinking is. What you fancy is not Li." Young master, it’s his sister who was drafted into the palace! You once made a mistake in joining Xun Feng, and now you want to take the opportunity to win back the situation! Father, you are so selfish!”

Snapped! A crisp slap in the face made a sudden sound in the quiet world, like a green bamboo breaking!

“Lingxi is my father’s most beloved daughter. Whatever Lingxi wants, my father will spare no effort to find it for you!”
