Tyrannical Wang’s Beloved Wife
-
chapter-467-2
Everyone all had an understanding. Don’t look at how there’s no movements right now, soon, one will just start hearing sounds that will make one turn red. Wangye wasn’t an easy one to deal with outside, and in the room, when facing wangfei, he similarly wasn’t ‘easy to deal with’.
As for it being broad daylight right now, heheh, and as for it being the day for the side consorts to enter, heheheh.
In any case, they won’t finish anytime soon, so won’t need them to serve. Besides, even when finished, it was still for the most part just the two mamas’ business. As the saying goes, ‘to temporarily obtain a moment of idleness in this restless world’. For them to be able to have days of leisure, truthfully speaking, it was definitely more than the people outside.
Gong mama originally was handling matters outside. After all, a banquet had been arranged today. Since the guests didn’t come, the things that should be tidied up, still needed to be tidied up. Seeing the servant girls come out, she instantly understood inside.
Jin Qinwang Manor was harmonious to the point where it couldn’t be more harmonious, but this wasn’t the case outside.A few families were joyous; a few families were worried.
The people of the Luo family, aside from the ones that went to the government offices to handle matters, the rest for the most part, all gathered in the main courtyard with Luo Old Madam. From the start, they had simply never planned on going to Jin Qinwang Manor to ‘drink the wedding wine’. This while, although their expressions weren’t obvious, everyone was actually in a pretty good mood. Regardless of the reason, Jin Qinwang not having a side consort was all a good thing. They won’t need to worry about their own family’s young lady being wronged, and they don’t need to be forced to offer up the position of ‘Jin Qinwang faction’s number one iron club’, don’t know how much troubles can be spared.
Compared to the others’ relatively reserved expressions, Sun Yi Jia’s good mood was clearly more obvious, “If I have to say, this is practically just the heavens all wanting Jin Qinwang to just pamper young sister Wan alone.”
Luo Jing Bo cleared his throat, glancing to his own wife, “Don’t say nonsense.”
Sun Yi Jia lightly snorted, “What’s there to be scared of, all one’s own family here, who would even have this matter taken outside?”
Luo Jing Bo could only feel helpless towards her. His wife, from the start, had just climbed on his head. He was long ‘lacking the vitality of a husband’. Normally, it was all fine, just when encountering little sis’s matters, she was sure to fight with him to the end. That’s why, while clearly knowing what the outcome would be, it was better to just have this ‘argument’ extinguished at the source. It is whatever she says it is, as long as she’s happy.
Just, his wife caring about his little sister this much, seemingly even surpassing him, this husband, he felt a bit stuffy inside.“Alright, this matter, just end it here. There isn’t anything else to say either, so why don’t you all just go back, and carry on with your own matters.” Luo Old Madam aptly said, waving her hand, letting them all leave.
Luo Old Madam’s heart was as clear as a mirror. It wasn’t the heavens wanting to let her Wan Wan monopolize all the pampering, but rather Jin Qinwang wanting to solely pamper. This was something even the heavens can’t decide. En, hope this can continue forever.
Everyone all understood Luo Old Madam’s personality, successively getting up to take their leave.
“Jing Ming’s wife…………”
Luo Jing Ming’s wife, the Head of the Hong Lu Office’s di daughter, Zhao-shi hurriedly turned around, “Grandmother…………”
“I see that your spirit isn’t too well, call the manor doctor over to take your pulse for a look. The body is one’s own, don’t be careless with it. When time comes, the one to suffer will just be oneself.”
“Yes, many thanks grandmother.” Zhao-shi hurriedly replied.
“Alright, go then.”
“Yes, this granddaughter-in-law will take one’s leave.” Zhao-shi curtsied.
Zhao-shi right now can be said to be the one with the highest status, in name and in reality, among the three zhoulis. Sun Yi Jia although came from the Ding Duke Manor, but at present, didn’t she already get passed out for adoption by Sun Old Madam? The branch she was in right now just had her and Sun Yi Lin. Sun Yi Lin although was favored by the Emperor, but compared to the Head of the Hong Lu Office, he was still much inferior. As such, Sun Yi Jia naturally can’t compare with her. However, Zhao-shi also didn’t, because of this, become arrogant, instead just taking care of her own duties, harmoniously getting along with the rest of the family.
Her husband although was the most unremarkable one among the three brothers, the shu-born of a shu-born, however, towards this marriage, she didn’t have any dissatisfaction. The third branch right now relied on her husband to support, and her mother-in-law actually didn’t involve herself much either. Moreover, her husband was ambitious, and also highly regarded by grandfather. If things continue like this, his future prospects won’t be bad. Additionally, her husband’s side was the same as third brother-in-law’s, not having any concubines and tongfangs. Perhaps because her husband was relatively reserved, between the two of them, they perhaps can’t compare with third sister-in-law and them, stuck together like glue, but they were still in perfect harmony. This was already much much better than what she’d originally imagined.
Right now, the only place that was not too satisfactory was just after being married for several months, her stomach still didn’t have any movements. Although there were no elders rushing her, and her husband also never once mentioned before, but recalling how third sister-in-law seemingly just got pregnant not long after marrying in, she was still somewhat envious. These last few days her spirit has indeed been not good, perhaps……………..She lightly touched her stomach, her eyes flashing with a ray of hope.
Right after returning to their own courtyard, Luo Jing Ming just reached out to grasp her hand, “Your body was unwell, yet I didn’t notice, this is my fault. Just, in the future, remember to tell me. After all, things might get more and more busy, so perhaps will overlook some areas. We are husband and wife, and will be together for a lifetime, so don’t wrong yourself, and don’t be that strict with etiquette. This is the home, need to let oneself live more comfortably.”
“Letting husband worry is my fault…………”
Luo Jing Ming was somewhat helpless, “Was saying just now, yet not even a second later, you’re this courteous again. On normal days, when you have nothing to do, just go visit third sister-in-law’s place, and learn from her, life is long, so live a bit more freely.”
Zhao-shi opened her mouth, but the words by her mouth got swallowed back down again, hesitating for moment, “I’ll listen to you.”
Luo Jing Ming finally smiled, ordering someone to go invite the manor doctor, leading her into the room by the hand.
Having seen how his parents, elders, as well as brothers got along in marriage, he just assumed that he would also be the same, yet turns out, this wasn’t the case. Feeling sweet inside, his face also subconsciously dyed red, his hand slightly tightening.
That’s why, this couple that has been married for several months just entered the honeymoon phase?!
Sure enough, just as Zhao-shi had thought, she indeed was pregnant. This was another happy matter, hurriedly reporting to the di mother and grandmother, and also reporting to Zhao-shi’s maiden family.
The Head of the Hong Lu Office’s madam looked forward to this outer grandchild like awaiting the stars and moon. She was also worried that if her daughter can’t get pregnant, her son-in-law will have others by his side. Right now, things can’t be better. However, now that she was pregnant, her son-in-law needed people to serve him, so he will still have others by his side. As such, her delight in that moment diluted quite a bit.
Just, shortly after, Zhao-shi’s wet nurse leaned over and whispered a few words by her ear. Madam Zhao immediately beamed with smiles again, “Is this true? At the time, I was still somewhat unsatisfied with this marriage, but because our family was in the wrong, and that was also the Head Minister of Appointments, I had no choice but to agree, yet never thought that our family’s daughter would marry the right person.”
“This is our young lady’s good fortune. However, madam, you may not know….” Zhao-shi’s wet nurse lowered her voice, “Jin Wangfei is one that dislikes concubines and tongfangs. This matter, the entire Luo family all knows. That while when returning from Jiangnan, someone in the eldest young master’s room had gotten pregnant. The eldest young madam somewhat showed it on her face, and just got seen by wangfei. Later, the old madam personally took care of this matter. That tongfang already got sent to the estate to await childbirth, and from the looks of it, once the child is born, afraid she won’t be able to return to the manor with the child.”
This for the main wives of the Luo family naturally was good news, “Just wangfei herself………..”
“How it will be in the future, it’s hard to say. However, at present, Jin Qinwang nevertheless treats her extremely well. Besides, just based on Jin Qinwang’s current situation, in the future, afraid it’ll be impossible to have side consorts, perhaps won’t even have concubines either. After all, those in the past, not a single one had a title. Perhaps, as long as one has a title, all will get cursed.”
“Indeed, who would’ve thought that Jin Qinwang’s fate would be this rigid. Afraid, even in the future, no one would dare to think about letting their own family’s young lady enter Jin Qinwang Manor.”
In reality, it was indeed as Madam Zhao said.
Power and wealth, one needed to live to enjoy. If they can’t even enter the gates, then everything else was just nothing at all.
Even if getting ‘cursed’, it was fine as long as one can enter the gates. Even if dying, at least, it was still having made connections with Jin Qinwang, no? Then, one more or less can win some benefits for one’s family clan from Jin Qinwang’s hands.
Just, how many people were able to have the courage to go gamble with their life?
Jing Wan finally got up around nighttime to eat a bit of something. Afterwards, she returned to the bed to continue sleeping, muddled and listless, not having any sense of time. This day was practically lethargic to no end.
The next day, when Jing Wan got up, she once again recovered her energy. Afterwards, she realized something in hindsight. Based on a certain someone’s habit of putting things to an end, even if in the future, when they move into the imperial palace, and the court officials want to shove people into his harem, they seemingly also need to be quite brave. When still a wangye, he was already able to secretly take care of it, then as an emperor, wouldn’t it be even simpler? That’s why, she simply didn’t need to worry about facing the court officials and titled madams. En, not bad.
T/N: A little late but happy holidays everyone! Wishing for everyone to be healthly and well the coming year as well!
