Chapter 1221 Let Your Sisters Keep You Company
"Sister, Auntie is doing this for your own good, although I am not as pleasing to Master Song as you are.
But my sister and I are sisters after all. After I enter the palace, I will definitely find a way to help my sister consolidate her favor!"
Hua Zhen stood behind Mrs. Chu. She looked delicate and her voice was soft, but the words she said were very unpleasant.
Jiang Wan gave Chuntao a look, and the two of them turned sideways and hid behind a tree on the side.
She just didn't want to embarrass Qiqi.
"I don't need it!"
Chu Qi's face was cold and full of disappointment. She really didn't expect her mother to make such an incredible suggestion!
It is ridiculous to send my cousin into the mansion to serve my husband together with her!
"Qiqi, what stupid things are you saying."
Mrs. Chu scolded Chu Qi with a stern face, “Your sister Zhen is doing this for your own good.
Although your grandfather is in Jiuzhou, and none of us are often here, if she can enter the mansion, you sisters will be united and will definitely not let her take advantage of you."
"Yes, sister. Even if it's not me, there will be someone else. I am your sister, at least I won't really take away your love."
"Mother, have you forgotten that the Song family's ancestral precept states that a man can take a concubine only if he is forty and has no children."
Chu Qi's face was full of sarcasm, and he didn't even call her mother. Mother was just a respectful title.
She said self-deprecatingly: "My husband has never had the intention of taking a concubine."
"this……"
Mrs. Chu was a little hesitant for a moment. She also felt estranged from her daughter the last time she returned to Beijing.
When I went back to my parents' home, I couldn't help but bring it up, and my sister-in-law suggested that her niece come to help Kiki.
Furthermore, her niece has been close to her since childhood, and she will surely be able to mediate, and their mother-daughter relationship will be better.
"Aunt, do you really believe that a man only truly loves one person?"
Hua Zhen held Mrs. Chu's hand and said, "Didn't my uncle say before that he only loved my aunt?
Now there are several more concubines in the backyard, which makes my aunt sad for no reason."
Ever since the last incident, Father Chu was probably a little disappointed with Mrs. Chu, so he gave her a few flowers.
"Zhenzhen is right."
Mrs. Chu nodded more and more affirmatively, and then tried her best to persuade Chu Qi.
"Qiqi, your father promised me that he would only love me for the rest of his life. Not to mention that I already had concubines in the backyard, now there are even more.
Now that you've given birth to a child, you're no longer as pretty as before. Since he's going to take someone new sooner or later, why don't you help your cousin?"
"Don't worry, sister. After I enter the mansion, I will definitely be of the same mind and will obey your orders."
Hua Zhen lowered her attitude, certain that Chu Qi would not refuse. After all, such things happened quite frequently in Kyoto.
Going back in time, in the palace before, there were cousins who served the emperor, let alone cousins.
"I said I don't need it!"
Chu Qi suddenly lost her temper, she looked at Madam Chu coldly, "In the past, I just thought that mother was partial to Ge'er.
After all, Ge'er is my biological brother. Even though I am jealous, I won't really take it to heart.
Now in my mother's heart, even my cousin Zhenzhen is more important than me, right?
For her, the mother disregarded the happiness of her own daughter. It really chilled my heart!"
"How can you say that, sister? Auntie is doing this for your own good."
Hua Zhen saw that Mrs. Chu's face changed and wanted to persuade her more, but Mrs. Chu suddenly grabbed her.
"Qiqi, how can you miss me so much? I really want this for your own good."
"Then mother, have you ever seen anyone from the Song family take a concubine?"
Chu Qi's face was full of sarcasm, "Not to mention the prince, even my father-in-law is only my mother-in-law."
Of course, except for Grandmother Song and others.
After all, there are always people who violate the ancestral rules and produce a few illegitimate children.
Otherwise, my father-in-law wouldn’t have suffered so much.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chu was stunned again.
Yes, whether it was Song Qing or the prince, they never took concubines.
Although they didn't quite believe that a man could be so loyal, the Song family seemed to be like that.
Hearing this, Hua Zhen panicked a little. She couldn't miss such a good opportunity.
"But sister, men like novelty, and I am always better than others..."
"Zhenzhen!"
Mrs. Chu met Chu Qi's cold eyes and suddenly realized that she seemed to have really hurt her own daughter.
That’s why Madam Chu suddenly rebuked Hua Zhen, “We made a hasty conclusion about this matter.
Since Qiqi is so confident, let's forget about it. After the birthday banquet for the old man is over, I will take you back to Beijing."
"aunt!"
Hua Zhen was still unwilling to accept it. After all, she was a concubine's daughter, and she wouldn't be able to find a good man even if she chose in Kyoto.
Her stepmother and her aunt have some grudges against each other, so they will definitely not treat her very well.
"Haven't we already agreed on this? Besides, my sister already has a son, so I won't really take the young master away."
"Mother, if you insist on doing this, I'm afraid we won't even be able to be mother and daughter anymore!"
Chu Qi is such a strong person, but today he was forced to cry by his own mother and cousin.
Seeing her so sad, Mrs. Chu was a little panicked. She said hurriedly:
"Qiqi, don't cry yet. Since you don't want to, I will listen to you."
"aunt!"
Hua Zhen wanted to say more, but was pulled away by Madam Chu, "Okay, aunt will find a good marriage for you in Kyoto.
Let’s forget about this matter. I trust the men of the Song family.”
She was just afraid that Chu Qi would really not recognize her, so she smiled gently at Chu Qi.
"Qiqi, I was rash in this matter. Please don't be angry. The dinner is about to start. Let's go back quickly."
"You guys go back first, I want to go see the kids."
Chu Qi was in no mood to attend the banquet at this moment. He just felt extremely heartbroken.
Mrs. Chu was probably feeling guilty, so she pulled the reluctant Hua Zhen away quickly.
As soon as the person left, Chu Qi almost collapsed on the ground, but her maid was quick to support her.
"Young Madam, Madam is really too much. She had to send someone to the Young Master's room to make things difficult for you."
There are many mothers-in-law who do this kind of thing.
Unexpectedly, her family was different. Her mother-in-law asked her husband to love her more and not to have any other thoughts.
It was her own mother who did such a disgusting thing.
Chu Qi wiped her tears carefully with a handkerchief and said in a muffled voice:
"Don't tell anyone about this."
"yes."
The maid nodded slightly. Jiang Wan had not come out yet, but Chu Qi had already seen Jiang Wan.
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to make you laugh."
"I didn't expect you'd seen me so early."
Jiang Wan brought Chuntao out from behind the tree. She sighed, then gently rubbed the top of Chu Qi's head.
"Don't get angry with them. It's not worth it."
"Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law."
Chu Qi couldn't hold back the tears that she had been holding back, but they fell again, "I just don't understand.
Am I such a bad person in her heart? I know she is easily influenced, but I don’t know why she would embarrass her own daughter for the sake of a niece.”
"Okay, okay."
Jiang Wan gently hugged Chu Qi, "Don't think about these messy things, even if she really forced Hua Zhen to enter the mansion.
Not to mention mother, even I will not agree easily."
We can't let this happen, otherwise more and more people will be sent to the palace.
Then all the efforts Song Jiuyuan made before would be in vain.
