Survival skills encountered unprecedented challenges at 58

  Speaking of Yu Qing's future husband's family, there has been news about them recently.

  Madam He, dressed in a light blue silk dress with golden embroidery and a knee-length skirt, looked at Ruoxi thoughtfully, choosing her words carefully before speaking slowly: "A cousin from the wife's family has arrived, I heard that both parents have passed away, this time entering the capital to rely on her aunt. I once saw her in the Jingwang Mansion, she was born with a good complexion, delicate and weak. She is very much to Madam Xiang's liking."

  This remark by Mr. He, no matter how you say it, has a connotation that this cousin is not simple. As soon as the alarm bell rang in her mind, she thought of the term "cousin" which was a warm and fuzzy term in ancient times. Moreover, being delicate and weak, and also liked by the madam, oh heaven, after a man married his wife, he suddenly had a cousin appear, and both parents were dead... No matter what the reason is, as an aunt and cousin, they should treat this cousin well and take good care of her, and in ancient times, taking good care of someone often meant taking them to bed and keeping them by their side... Heaven, how could such a melodramatic thing happen to her?

  He saw Ruqing's expression and knew she had understood his meaning. A faint look of sympathy and a hint of worry appeared on her face.

  Ru Mei thought that Ru Qing hadn't even gotten married yet and had already encountered such a troublesome thing, she couldn't help but feel a little pleased, however soon after comforted Ru Qing, "But younger sister doesn't need to worry, if the Wei family dares to do something like that, father and mother will take charge for you."

  Lin slowly glanced at Ru Mei and said, "Earlier, Old Lady had already disciplined the Xiang family. Although our daughter is not a golden branch or jade leaf, she was raised pampered and delicate. The Fang family may not be extremely wealthy or noble, but they also attach importance to etiquette and rules. Even if the Xiang family wants to take a concubine for their son, they must wait until the younger sister enters the door, gives birth to a legitimate son, and three years later can take a concubine. Therefore, younger sister can rest assured that even if the Xiang family intends to take that cousin as a concubine, they must wait until three years after younger sister enters the door before she can enter. I also inquired about it, that cousin is already sixteen now, and if they really wait for three years, she will become an old maiden. They definitely won't joke around with their own lifelong matters."

  With a heavy heart, she nodded silently, unable to express her feelings.

  She had always been diligent and hardworking in ancient times, also actively learning all the survival skills of ancient times. However, she learned a thousand experiences of being a concubine, but never thought that this concubine would have such a unique identity. The daughter of the family's younger sister? It was actually her who encountered such a thing, was her thinking outdated, or was the era changing again?

  When Ruoqing was thinking about visiting the Zhang family, the Zhangs had already sent over a gift, it turned out that they had heard that Ruoqing had returned from Shanxi and took the opportunity to invite Old Lady Zhang and Ruoqing to visit together to reminisce about old times.

  The old lady handed the invitation to Ruoqing and said, "You handle it yourself."

  "Go, why don't you go? The future mother-in-law has invited you, what reason is there not to go?" Most importantly, it's to gather information about the enemy.

  She's already humiliated herself by marrying down, and now with this cousin thing, she might as well just go back to her grandma's house and drown herself in a toilet.

  Today I went home and don't need to rush to please future mother-in-law, first probe into the thoughts of the wife.

  The old lady looked at the face with a mixture of emotions, "It's just that the engagement has been settled, but it hasn't reached the final step yet. You don't have to look so gloomy either. If the Xiang family really doesn't behave properly, then this marriage can be called off."

  Yu Jing stared at Lao Taijun in surprise.

  The old lady's mouth curled up with a sneer, "Cousins? Hmph, whether it's true or false, in any case, if they dare to make trouble for our family, don't blame us for turning against them and not recognizing them."

  As the engagement has been settled between the two families, it is generally not possible to have anyone else in the house, at most just one or two concubines. However, it is absolutely impossible to take a concubine first, this is a respect for the wife and her family. On the contrary, it would be seen as contemptuous. Given the current prestige of the Fang family, if they dared to do so, it would be slapping their own face.

  The He and Lin families also learned that the lady of the Zhao family had sent out invitations, and they all came up with their own ideas.

  Mrs. He meant that Old Lady Shi should first calm herself down, and if she met with Mrs. Xiang, the young lady would not come out to greet her guests, so she would pretend not to know this person. On the other hand, Old Lady Shi would ask the young lady in a casual tone whether she had any marriage plans, trying to probe into the details.

  If the young lady is not married, then the old lady will take the initiative to warn them and make them dare not act rashly in front of their family.

  Ran Lin said it was too tiring to beat around the bush, and it's better to be straightforward. Anyway, they had already made their intentions clear to the Xiang family before, if the Xiang family insisted on being stubborn, then this marriage could be forgotten. There are many eligible bachelors in the capital, no need for the Xiang family's son.

  He Shi, however, had a different opinion and also gave examples of the actions that might happen to Madame Xiang. As she listened, her heart felt cool and she thought, "Yes, He Shi is right. Madame Xiang wouldn't act unilaterally, but if she starts with me, what can I do?"

  Digression
