Chapter 472 "Mistress"
Mrs. Cao smiled and said, "I have to thank you. If you hadn't withdrawn, your marriage would have fallen to me."
In fact, concubines' daughters usually marry better than legitimate daughters, because legitimate daughters are born to the first wife, and their fathers are young when they get married, so their official positions are low.
Later, when the young illegitimate daughter grew up, her father had become powerful and influential, so naturally she could marry into a better family.
However, Minister Cao was already the Minister of the Imperial Court, a position higher than that of the prime minister. Since the two sisters were of similar age, it was naturally better for the eldest daughter to marry.
I thought that after I finished speaking, I would see her suppressing her anger.
As a result, Madam Cao patted her head lovingly and said something she had heard from the Crown Prince: "I understand you, I am also a green tea."
Cao San:? ?
She waved her hand away and said angrily, "Did you go crazy after being kicked out of the house?"
She was provoking her, did she know that?
The silent woman on the side watched this scene and also stared at Madam Cao strangely.
This does not look normal.
She held Cao San's hand and said softly, "I'm here to pick out clothes for you today. Don't get angry over these irrelevant people."
The ladies have their clothes made by people who come to their homes to take their measurements, but when they have some spare time, they will go to their favorite shops to personally choose the latest fashionable styles.
Since these ladies were generous, they chose silks and satins as the materials.
If you ask people to come in advance, they will just let them know and the shop will close immediately, allowing them to choose freely.
If they come in a hurry, they will be welcomed into the backyard.
So he said arrogantly, "Shopkeeper, please don't bother entertaining idle people."
"This lady is no longer a member of the Cao family. I don't think she can bring you any big business. It's better for her to treat us."
Compared to the complicated feelings towards her sister, mixed with a bit of guilt, Mrs. Cao did not have any good feelings towards the cousin who spoke to her.
The husband of this cousin's wife is her cousin who was sent to Hongwenguan. The next generation of leaders trained by the Cao family are naturally good candidates for engagement, so the cousin's wife's family background is not bad either.
However, no matter how well-matched her family background was, after marrying into the Cao family, she could only become a "mistress" who served her husband and parents-in-law.
The cousin even had a bad temper and hit his cousin's wife after an argument.
My cousin's wife was afraid of being divorced, so she endured the beating. As a result, my cousin became more and more aggressive.
Anyway, it's okay to hit him, right? Then you can hit him harder to vent your anger.
Finally, he injured his wife severely one day and her life was in danger, so he could no longer hide it.
That time, my cousin's wife cried and wanted to divorce, but the Cao family was naturally unwilling. The background of the wife they married again was not as good as the first time.
My cousin's wife wanted to send a message to her parents' home for help, but she couldn't and was completely locked in the yard.
When the Manchu government was making things difficult for this poor woman, she couldn't stand it and passed the news to her parents' home.
She knew that she would definitely be punished if she went there, but she put herself in the other person's shoes and thought that if she encountered such difficulties in the future, she would hope that someone would come to help her.
Everything went as expected, her parents came to the house, wanting to save their daughter.
At this time, her cousin knelt down with a reed on his back, begging his wife not to leave, saying that all this was caused by his previous obsession.
I cried bitterly and promised to be nice to her in the future.
