Chapter 1: Hou Fu's eldest son【03】

When Luo Qing was worrying about how to mess with Huang's marriage, or how to change the engagement partner from Fu Yuanjia, the son of Weining Hou's mansion, to Fu Yuanze, the concubine, she suddenly saw a slender figure in the garden in front of her, she was slightly startled, and asked the maid next to her: " But is my cousin there?"

The maid replied, "It's Miss Biao in the garden."

Luo Qing's eyes lit up, and then slightly quickened her pace and walked towards the figure in the garden.

After approaching, I saw that the young woman in a plain dress had a beautiful appearance but had a bookish scent. She was not particularly outstanding, far less stunning than Luo Qing, but she was the kind of woman with an elegant temperament and a more attractive look. .

Luo Qing shouted affectionately: "Cousin!"

She remembered that in her previous life, her cousin Fang Yan, whose parents were both dead, was married off to another place by her mother, but unfortunately, her life was not good. Her corpse was returned to her uncle's hometown, so she was buried outside and became a lonely ghost.

Luo Qing looked at Fang Yan with eagerness. Although she couldn't use extreme methods to disturb Huang's marriage with Fu Yuanjia, she still wanted to marry Fu Yuanze, but couldn't she still give Fu Yuanjia another wife!

Although she didn't want to admit it, Luo Qing had to admit that, even if her cousin Fang Yan died, her status was much higher than hers.

Because when her aunt got married, her grandfather hadn't retired yet. Luo's family was still relatively high, and her aunt was married to Fang's family. Her uncle was a second-class jinshi back then, and he was a third-rank senior before his death.

Therefore, Luo Qing is only the direct daughter of a fourth-rank official, while her cousin Fang Yan is the only daughter of a third-rank official. The only thing she can compare to Fang Yan is that her parents are safe and supported by her brother, but Fang Yan has lost both of her parents and has no brother, so she can only live in her home. What if her grandfather loves Fang Yan, her granddaughter? After her grandfather passed away in her previous life, Fang Yan had not yet fallen into the hands of her mother, married far away, or married in a shabby way, and finally died of illness in a foreign land.

Luo Qing felt that she gave Fu Yuanjia to Fang Yan to give Fang Yan a way to live. After all, being a widow in Weining Hou's mansion was much better than dying in a foreign country. When she becomes Mrs. Weining Hou in the future, she will take good care of her widowed cousin.

Fang Yan looked at Luo Qing's eyes full of superiority and inexplicable pity, thinking about what bad idea her cousin was holding back, and how could she avoid her cousin's embarrassment without angering her aunt.

But to Fang Yan's surprise, Luo Qing was uncharacteristically very affectionate to her, Fang Yan felt that Luo Qing should want something from her again.

The Fang family's property fell into her hands. When Fang Yan came to Luo's family, she took the initiative to hand over some of the property as her accommodation and food expenses, so as not to be regarded as a poor relative who was fighting the autumn wind. The rest of the property is still in her hands.

However, Fang Yan knew that her aunt was still thinking about the property in her hands, just because her grandfather didn't dare to be too obvious, but it would also make Luo Qing come to take away some of her precious jewelry or decorations from time to time.

Fang Yan doesn't care about giving up money to eliminate disasters, but she knows that if she doesn't have any money, she can only let her aunt round and flatten it. Therefore, she has already quietly divided the property in her hands into three parts, one is hidden, the other is for daily expenses, and she plans to give the rest to her aunt at the right time to satisfy her greedy greed, so as not to attract come calamity.

When Fang Yan's parents died, she was thirteen years old. She had already made up her mind and knew how to plan for her future. She understands that the only elder she can trust in the Luo family is her grandfather, but her grandfather doesn't care about the affairs of the house, and he is very old, so her aunt, the mistress of the Luo family, must not offend her. As a junior, she can only grit her teeth sometimes. Eat some dark losses, in exchange for a moment of peace.

So at this time Fang Yan was ready to break the bank and eliminate the disaster, but she didn't expect Luo Qing to change her temper. Today, she didn't ask her for anything. She only talked to her about romance and makeup.

Until Luo Qing left, Fang Yan was a little strange. Today, her cousin is so abnormal.

Fang Yan thought that Luo Qing was just abnormal for a while, but she didn't expect her to be abnormal all the time.

Luo Qing, who had been ostracizing her a little bit, actually took the initiative to take her out for an outing and attend the banquet held by Handkerchief Hand, as if she really had a better relationship with her than her own sisters.

At first, Fang Yan was wary that Luo Qing was trying to hold back some bad tricks, but after a few months, Luo Qing didn't make any moves, so Fang Yan stopped worrying about it all the time. She thought that maybe Luo Qing wanted to maintain the appearance of their sisterhood in front of outsiders.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Yuan Jia heard that his mother, Mrs. Weining Hou, was going to hold a flower viewing banquet at the mansion, and she also deliberately moved out all her precious peony flowers and distributed invitations widely.

He knew that Mrs. Weining Hou's flower-viewing feast was a drunkard's intention, not wine.

The Luo family's Mrs. Luo and Luo Qing must also be on the invitation list. It is a blind date feast in disguise, that is, there is basically no chance for men and women to meet directly before they get engaged. And prepared.

The flower viewing banquet was held lively.

When Luo Qing was taken by Mrs. Luo to attend the flower viewing banquet in the Hou Mansion, Luo Qing took the initiative to mention to Mrs. Luo to bring her cousin Fang Yan: "Mother, if you don't bring your cousin, outsiders think how can you treat your cousin harshly!"

Although Mrs. Luo really doesn't like Fang Yan very much, and she also cares about the Fang family's wealth, she is a person who loves face and reputation, but she refuses to give people a chance to talk.

So Mrs. Luo took Fang Yan and Luo Qing to Weining Hou Mansion.

This flower viewing banquet, Yuan Jia's sister Fu Qinghe also came back from her husband's house. Fu Qinghe knew that this was held by her mother to show her brother's marriage. When she saw the Luo family coming, she paid more attention to Mrs. Luo's body. There are two young girls with flower bones next to them.

At first glance, what Fu Qinghe noticed was Luo Qing, who had a better appearance than Fang Yan, and then she noticed Fang Yan, but after watching it for a while, she felt that Fang Yan was much better than Luo Qing in both bearing and demeanor.

Fu Qinghe hurriedly stepped forward to greet the Luo family on behalf of her mother: "Is this Mrs. Luo? Please take a seat!" She looked at Luo Qing and Fang Yan, "These two girls are..."

Mrs. Luo smiled and took Fang Yan's hand and introduced her to Fu Qinghe, but Mrs. Luo seemed to be the most affectionate of Fang Yan, but she turned around and kept saying good things about her daughter Luo Qing in front of Fu Qinghe, ignoring Fang Yan intentionally or unintentionally.

Fu Qinghe is different from her mother, Mrs. Weining Hou. She is not as arrogant as her mother, but has a delicate temperament. As soon as she heard it, she could hear the subtlety in Mrs. Luo's words, but she praised Luo Qing with a smile on her face, as if there was nothing. Sounds normal.

Mrs. Weining Hou entertained the ladies from the Hou family's family, and then walked over to chat with Mrs. Luo in person.

Mrs. Weininghou's character is arrogant, even arrogant. It can be seen from her attitude towards those concubines and concubines of Weininghou that she has never put these people in her eyes.

But she is not arrogant and arrogant. When she has the intention to become in-law with the Luo family, she can treat Mrs. Luo, whose status is not as good as hers, with a gentle smile, which is like a spring breeze.

Mrs. Luo felt that Mrs. Weining Hou was easy to get along with, but Luo Qing pouted in her heart.

Her mother-in-law is not a fuel-efficient lamp. In her last life, she insisted on reconciling, and Mrs. Weining Hou immediately changed her face from her previous loving kindness. She was mean and indifferent, revealing her ruthless true face.

Fang Yan quietly stood beside Mrs. Luo to reduce her sense of existence. She heard Mrs. Weining Hou and Mrs. Luo praise each other's children, and vaguely understood that Mrs. Luo brought Luo Qing to Wei. Ninghou Mansion's intention to participate in the flower viewing banquet.

Fang Yan wondered why Luo Qing's attitude towards her had changed so much during this period of time and finally found out. It turned out that Luo Qing was about to marry into Weining Hou's mansion to be the wife of the prince, and she flew to Gaozhi, so naturally she didn't have to be jealous of her third-rank officer His daughter, and can even look down at her with a sense of superiority, so there is no jealousy and hostility that he once had.

In the past, when Luo Qing faced her, the jealousy and jealousy hidden under the surface, Fang Yan was clear in her heart, and she also knew what Luo Qing was jealous of her. Now that Luo Qing has found a good husband's family, in the future, Fang Yan's marriage will be in the hands of her aunt, and she will definitely not be able to compare to Luo Qing. Luo Qing feels that she is much stronger than her, so of course she will not be jealous of her.

Fang Yan thinks about her future marriage. She is pessimistic in her heart. Even if her aunt gets the wealth she gave, she will definitely not bother to find a good family for her.

Because her mother had a bad relationship with Mrs. Luo, the elder sister-in-law, before she got married. Now that her mother has passed away, how can she be better off in her hands?

Fang Yan had no expectations for future marriages in her heart, but she still had to keep her trademark polite and dignified smile on her face.

Although she has planned to find a suitable opportunity in the future to fake death and escape, leave Luo's house, and start a new life elsewhere, even if she can only live the life of ordinary people, it is better than being held in the hands of her aunt and being scolded.

But as long as she hasn't 'dead' for a day, she is the daughter of the Fang family, and every word and deed represents the Fang family, so naturally there can't be any irregularities to discredit her parents.

Fang Yan's quiet and dignified manner made Mrs. Weining Hou take a second look, thinking that although Fang Yan was an orphaned daughter of both parents, her family education was excellent, she really deserved to be the daughter of the Fang family!
