Chapter 992 I am your prospective brother-in-law
After Jiang Mian returned to Zhou's house, her face was not very good-looking.
She was eager to send her daughter to the palace, but who knew that her elder sister's heart disease would be cured?
Although it is incredible, would her sister still fool her with such a thing? Only her elder sister is about to get better, otherwise she wouldn't have said that.
"Why should you be so anxious, madam?" her mother whispered.
"How can I not be anxious? Don't you look at how old Miao Jie'er is. It's fifteen after this year. How long can she stay even if she stays?" Jiang Mian couldn't help but say.
"Madam, otherwise you will find a chance to enter the palace and directly call the concubine Bai, and say that you want to send Sister Miao into the palace to accompany you!" said the old lady.
"How can this work? How could my elder sister agree to this? " Jiang Mian couldn't help but say.
Although she didn't know much about her elder sister, she also knew that her elder sister was a powerful character. Otherwise, so many concubines in the palace, even the queen, wouldn't have any advantage in her?
How could the elder sister promise to send her daughter in rashly? She might suffer.
"Madam, that's not what I said. Now the Imperial Concubine is almost thirty years old, and this year is over. How can a thirty-year-old woman, even if she is well-off and well-maintained, compare with those eight-year-old girls?" the old woman whispered.
Jiang Mian didn't say anything.
"This time the emperor did not have a talent show because of the predecessor. But next time, next time, next time, next time, the emperor will never never have a talent show. The old princes in the royal palace will occasionally pick one or two new ones, not to mention that the emperor is still in his prime now!" said the old man.
"But the emperor is also infatuated. Look, the emperor is so fond of my elder sister now?" Jiang Mian said.
"Since ancient times, the ruthless imperial family cannot resist the ruthlessness of time. And who is that? The emperor, the emperor has given the imperial concubine so favored him. Why, the imperial concubine dares to think about her and dares to rely on the emperor to guard her for the rest of her life? Even ordinary families dare not think so!" said the old woman.
After she finished speaking, she didn't need Jiang Mian to answer, and continued: "There is no good for a thousand days and no beautiful for a hundred days. The talent show is a must. If others can choose it, why can't your niece be able to do it? It's also impossible to ask the lady to help the concubine to be favored. And the aunt and nephew serve together, which is also a good story!"
Jiang Mian said: "I'm afraid my elder sister won't agree."
If this is true, it would be great.
When a daughter enters the palace, she will be taken care of by her aunt, and she will not worry about being bullied. When the eldest sister is old, she will be satisfied with her daughter's favor on her behalf.
This is actually a very good mutual benefit.
"So I asked my wife to try to go into the palace and talk. Of course, I don't want it now, so I'll take it slow first. I've seen that the lady hasn't figured it out yet." The old lady said.
"Jie Miao is just ignorant. I have been worried about her future, but she has always been indifferent and has never been to the palace. As long as she enters the palace, she will be able to be rich and powerful!" Jiang Mian said.
"Miss is still young and doesn't know how important power is. How can it be so easy for others to enter the palace? That is, there is the Ladder of the Imperial Concubine, otherwise..." The old lady didn't say anything later.
But the words behind are obvious, that is, without the concubine in the palace, the mother of the imperial concubine, who is just a family like the Zhou family, even if she is selected for the talent show, it is not easy to be favored.
You should know that although there are many concubines in the palace, there are not many who are favored.
Zhou Miao is now learning needlework from the embroidery lady. Her needlework is very good. The embroidery lady couldn't help but praise her and said, "Miss is so talented and I don't have to come here again in the future."
"I also need the embroiderer to give me more advice." Zhou Miao said humbly.
After she said that, Zhou Bai, who was outside, came in.
"Sister, are you busy?" Zhou Bai asked.
"Brother Bai is in trouble?" Zhou Miao also said.
"You all go down first, I'll tell my elder sister about something." Zhou Bai said.
The embroidered lady and the maid Hongyun went down. Then Zhou Bai took out a letter from his arms and said, "Sister, this is when I came back from school outside. I met someone on the way and he asked me to send it to you."
Zhou Miao was stunned: "Who gave it to me?"
"I don't know who he is, but I look so pretty, so I took it for you. I guess I should be the one who wants to pursue you," Zhou Bai said with a smile.
"Nothing nonsense." Zhou Miao laughed and scolded, but opened the letter to see what was going on.
When she saw this, she was slightly stunned, just because the first thing she saw was the signature place, where three words were clearly written: Liu Qinghe.
Zhou Miao naturally won’t remember who this is. Before she was forgotten to the point of being so obsessed, she saw the young man she last time went into the palace.
It seems to be two or three years older than her.
After thinking about these, Zhou Miao began to read the letter, and his cheeks became redder the more he looked.
"What have you written? Let's take a look." Zhou Bai said as he stretched his neck over.
"No, what are the kids looking at?" Zhou Miao covered the letter with a red face and said.
"Sister, have you secretly decided to live with him for life?" Zhou Bai said.
"It's nothing. When you see him again next time, just scold me. You're simply a madman, so shameless!" Zhou Miao cursed.
"Okay, then next time he asks me to deliver a letter, I will just talk to him." Zhou Bai said and left first.
Zhou Miao really wanted to throw away the hot letter in her hand. She didn't know what to do, so she picked it up and read it again.
In this letter, the madman was still normal in front of him. He told her that he went to the border to practice this year and did not come back until a few days ago in the snow.
But later on, it became arrogant.
He said he had inquired about it, but she hadn't told her yet, otherwise she might as well get engaged to him? He saw that although she was not old, she was still quite happy. She could get engaged first and marry her later.
Listen to what these are all about? He is really a playboy, and he was just useless to have a look of his face, but he didn't expect that he was so ignorant of the rules and so disrespectful to others!
After she took a few more glances, she threw it into the charcoal basin. As for the letter that she asked her to reply, she was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Liu Qinghe came to find Zhou Bai the next day.
Zhou Bai looked at him directly and said, "What did you write for my sister? My sister was very angry after reading it. It was all good if she didn't directly scold you. You still came to ask me for a reply?"
"I am the Seventh Young Master from the Taifu Mansion. Your sister has seen me. Do you know that I am your prospective brother-in-law?" Liu Qinghedao.
