Chapter 269 My mother-in-law is a loyal servant (thirteen)(1/2)
Shuangjiang is Mrs. Zhang's most trusted personal maid. When Mrs. Zhang herself needs to be redeemed, she never forgets to take her with her.
It is enough to show that Mrs. Zhang loves and values Shuangjiang.
At the age of sixteen or seventeen, with exquisite appearance and thoughtful and meticulous character, if Feng Zhongliang had said that Na Shuang would become his concubine when the Marquis Mansion was at its peak, he would not have been able to marry her as his wife.
It's not that the two people's conditions don't match, but it's not necessary.
The Feng family already has an extremely loyal servant like Nanny Zhao, so the entire Feng family will be loyal to Mrs. Zhang, and there is no need to waste an excellent chess piece.
In fact, Mrs. Zhang originally planned to marry Shuangjiang to the son of the chief steward of the Hou Mansion.
In this way, it can not only give Shuangjiang a decent face, but also win over the servants of the Hou Mansion.
The chief steward was also interested and fell in love with Shuangjiang.
It happened that at this time, something happened in the Hou Mansion, and the chief steward's family was also sold. The whole family was torn apart, and Mrs. Zhang didn't even know who bought them.
Now Mrs. Zhang and others rely on the Feng family for support, and Feng Zhongliang is the head of the family.
Originally, Feng Zhongliang had always been obedient, and Mrs. Zhang did not want to control him by giving women away.
But somehow, on the way to Beijing, Feng Zhongliang was coaxed by Gu Xiuniang in just two months.
He obeyed Gu Xiuniang's arrangements in everything, and sometimes even dared to show reluctance when asked by his own mother, Aunt Zhao.
"I really forgot my mother after marrying my daughter-in-law! This bastard was actually confused by this idiot, Mrs. Gu!"
Aunt Zhao was used to being strong in front of her son and used to arranging everything.
When she came out of the prison, she suddenly found that her son had changed. Aunt Zhao was really shocked and angry.
What made Mammy Zhao even more unsure was that the breadwinner of the family had become Gu Xiuniang. Feng Zhongliang seemed to be a little shorter in front of Gu Xiuniang.
As a mother-in-law, Aunt Zhao seems to be even less qualified to "discipline" her daughter-in-law.
How can that work?
If there were only a few members of their family and the daughter-in-law was more powerful, Aunt Zhao would still be able to tolerate it.
But the problem is, there are Mrs. Zhang and her group.
In the past, Aunt Zhao asked Feng Zhongliang to help Mrs. Zhang and everyone in the Marquis Mansion without losing his fortune, and Feng Zhongliang followed her instructions honestly.
But a few days ago, when Nanny Zhao accompanied Mrs. Zhang out of the prison and wanted a spacious place to live, Feng Zhongliang said with an embarrassed look, "I have no money."
Huh, why don’t you have money?
It was Gu Xiuniang who was instigating this behind the scenes!
She was trying to show off her power to Aunt Zhao. She wanted to tell Aunt Zhao that the mistress of the Feng family was her, Gu Xiuniang.
Feng Zhongliang also changed from a good son who listened to his mother-in-law to a coward who was afraid of his wife!
Aunt Zhao will never allow Gu Xiuniang to rebel, and she will not tolerate Gu Xiuniang's taking care of Mrs. Zhang and not respecting Mrs. Zhang enough.
Although the Feng family (including Mrs. Zhang and others) now rely on Gu Xiuniang's embroidery to support herself, Gu Xiuniang is just a daughter-in-law after all.
If a mother-in-law wants to manipulate her daughter-in-law, no matter how capable the daughter-in-law is, she will always find a way.
The most direct and effective way is to give his son a woman to create a rift in their relationship as a couple.
Then, Aunt Zhao can successfully bring her son back to her side!
As for Gu Xiuniang?
If she is not capable of doing anything and making money, then she can work as a cow and horse for the Feng family!
"...It's okay, Shuang Jiang is a smart person and should be able to serve Zhongliang well!"
To be honest, in terms of Feng Zhongliang's abilities, Mrs. Zhang somewhat looked down upon him.
This man is too dull and stupid.
In the past, Mrs. Zhang would look up to Feng Zhongliang, mainly because of Aunt Zhao.
But now... oh, in line with the saying "today is different from the past", she, a noble lady, actually resorted to a beauty trap to win over a fool!
Mrs. Zhang felt somewhat sad.
"Bad people! You are all bad people!"
Feng Yanting, who was hiding outside the door and eavesdropping, didn't understand what it was like to let Shuangsheng serve Feng Zhongliang.
But, he is smart and knows how to be obedient.
He could feel from the tone of conversation between Mrs. Zhang and Aunt Zhao that what they said must be scheming against his own mother.
Pressing her lips together, Feng Yanting cursed a few "bad guys" and hurried back to imitate her mother-in-law.
After hearing Feng Yanting's angrily retelling, He Tiantian was not too surprised and just raised her eyebrows slightly.
Stuff a woman?
It’s really nothing new!
Moreover, Mrs. Zhang's patience with the master and servant is really lacking.
In other words, they are thick-skinned enough!
He Tiantian originally expected that it would take a month or two before they would use any means against her.
Unexpectedly, after only a few days, they couldn't sit still.
But it doesn't matter, there is no difference between earlier days and later days.
Even if Aunt Zhao and the others don't take the initiative to get Feng Zhongliang a serving girl, He Tiantian will find a way to get one for him.
After all, Feng Zhongliang's "concubine" also has a role in He Tiantian's plan.
So, in the evening, Nanny Zhao led Shuangsheng, pretended to be in front of He Tiantian and Feng Zhongliang, and said, "Madam feels sorry for you and your wife, and wants Shuangsheng to come and serve them."
Feng Zhongliang was stunned, staring blankly at Shuang Jiang's beautiful face.
No matter how honest Feng Zhongliang is, he is still a man.
As for men, there is no one who is not greedy for sex.
What's more, Shuang Jiang is no ordinary girl, she is the most useful person around Madam Hou. In the Hou Mansion, ordinary masters may not be more honorable than her.
They were well-fed, well-fed, and pampered, and developed a noble demeanor.
If you change your clothes and go outside, some people will believe you if you say something about the grandmother of a wealthy family.
"Gu Xiuniang" is also an exquisite beauty, but she is still inferior to Shuangjiang.
Frost's Descent is the flower of wealth in the world, but "Gu Xiuniang" is more like Xiaojiabiyu.
In the past, when the Hou Mansion was prosperous, Shuangjiang was like a deputy lady. Although Feng Zhongliang was the only son of Aunt Zhao, she did not dare to think about it easily.
And now——
Suck!
Feng Zhongliang couldn't help swallowing, and his heart was beating wildly.
However, Feng Zhongliang was not completely captivated by beauty.
After a brief daze, he turned his head and carefully looked at He Tiantian's face.
He Tiantian was not angry, she was even a little happy: "Okay! I am worried about the lack of helpers at home!"
"A few days ago, I was thinking about bringing the eldest lady over to study with Yan Ting."
"After all, the eldest lady is the only legitimate daughter of the Marquis, and my natal family has also been greatly favored by the Marquis."
"The whereabouts of the Marquis are unknown now, and his wife is not in good health. She has no intention of taking care of the eldest lady, so I want to pick him up."
"However, I have to work, embroider, and take care of Yanting and my husband, so I really don't have enough free time!"
"If Miss Shuangjiang comes, she will be of great help to me——"
He Tiantian's words were sincere and sincere.
But Aunt Zhao, who was prejudiced against "Gu Xiuniang", began to start conspiracy theories.
She drooped the corners of her mouth and silently went through He Tiantian's words over and over in her mind.
Finally, she came to a conclusion and whispered it to Mrs. Zhang: "What a good Gu Xiuniang, she is indeed a treacherous woman!"
"She was not willing to let Shuangjiang serve Zhongliang at all, but she was afraid that if she refused directly, I would scold her for being 'jealous', so she deliberately used Yuanniang's girl as a raft!"
"She just wants to use Yuanniang to take advantage of us."
"Even if you can't control it, you still have to be disgusting and threaten us!"
"Why is the Marquis so kind to the Gu family? She should take good care of Yuanniang so that she can repay her kindness?"
"Bah! She is deliberately making Madam uncomfortable. She wants to hold Yuan Niang in her hand so that she can negotiate terms with us."
"...Hmph, you are so smart!"
After hearing what Aunt Zhao said, Mrs. Zhang frowned at first.
No one likes to be plotted or manipulated, let alone a once-above Madam Hou like Madam Zhang.
