The Domineering General and His Post-it Lady
Chapter 56 People Discuss Hu Lijing
Although Hu Lijing did not have the title of a lady, Madam Fan arranged for Hu Lijing to have her own villa and maids and servants to serve her. Her food, clothing and other expenses were all arranged according to the status of a lady. Hu Lijing also brought her maid Xiaoya into the Fan Mansion.
The maid Xiaoya has always been Hu Lijing's personal maid. After seeing the old lady's arrangement, she felt happy for Hu Lijing. Hu Lijing has always been looking forward to marrying into the Fan family. Now, in addition to the official title, under the old lady's arrangements in all aspects, Hu Lijing has become the best candidate for the seventh wife of General Fan Ziren in the Fan family, and enjoys the same treatment as General Fan Ziren's wife.
Everyone in the Fan family was talking about Hu Lijing. The ladies were dissatisfied with the arrangements made by old Madam Fan. They thought that Hu Lijing was just a guest invited by old Madam Fan, but was treated the same as them. They felt it was unfair, especially the first lady Zhao Chunlei and the second lady Ma Xiahe.
Xiao Lan, the maid of Madam Zhao Chunlei, could not help but ask, "Madam, is Madam Fan making this arrangement in order to let that cousin Hu Lijing marry into the Fan Mansion and become the general's seventh wife?"
First Lady Zhao Chunlei said: "It is obvious that this is the idea!"
The maid Xiao Lan asked in confusion: "Why didn't you arrange it directly for the general like the Sixth Madam did? You even invited him to the mansion and said it was a small gathering. You arranged a separate courtyard, servants, and maids for him. Is Madam Fan getting old and confused?"
Madam Zhao Chunlei shook her head and signaled the maid Xiao Lan to keep her voice down: "Don't talk nonsense outside, otherwise the old lady will hear it and you will be punished again!"
The maid Xiao Lan nodded.
The eldest lady, Zhao Chunlei, continued, "The old lady originally thought that the Sixth Lady would marry into the Fan Mansion and add another child to the Fan family, but she didn't expect that the general would have no connection with her. The old lady saw that there was no hope for the Sixth Lady, and there was no movement from the rest of us, so she was anxious to find a candidate for the Seventh Lady for the general."
The maid Xiao Lan said: "The eldest lady has seen through it, but why is the old lady so low-key this time? Could it be that she is afraid that the general will not agree, so she wants to act first and ask for permission later, let the cousin live in, cultivate a good relationship with the general, and then officially marry her?"
Madam Zhao Chunlei agreed and said, "Yes, that's what you meant, Xiaolan. Madam Fan has been in charge of the Fan Mansion for so many years, and she is the general's biological mother. She knows the general's temper. If we can't do it openly, we can only deal with it privately."
The maid Xiao Lan felt that it was not worth it for the Madam: "That cousin has no status at all, but she enjoys the same courtesy as the Madam. The old lady is too partial!"
Madam Zhao Chunlei said angrily, "That old woman is crazy about her grandchildren. She doesn't care about the feelings of us. She only thinks about her children and grandchildren. I don't know what kind of person Hu Lijing is. Now we can only act according to circumstances and see what she does."
The first wife, Zhao Chunlei, was relatively calm, but the second wife, Ma Xiahe's villa, was already in an uproar.
When Second Madam Ma Xiahe heard that Hu Lijing had moved into the mansion and that Old Madam Fan had arranged a separate courtyard, servants, and maids for her, and that her food, clothing, and other expenses were the same as theirs, she almost knocked over the vases in the house.
Second Madam Ma Xiahe said excitedly: "That cousin, before she even married into the Fan family, she was already spoiled by the old lady. She really thinks she is already the general's wife. What a person she is, she is just an obedient dog by old Madam Fan's side. She shows off here in front of us. How abominable!"
The maid Xiao Zi said, "That's right. I heard that she made the old lady very happy. The old lady deliberately arranged for her to meet the general. I guess she wanted her to become the general's seventh wife and give the general a son!"
The Second Madam slapped the table and said, "You wish for it. You want to give birth to a son and compete with our Hui'er for the future power of the General's Mansion? No way. I will never let her succeed."
The maid Xiao Zi said, "I heard that this cousin is a distant relative of the old lady's family. Her father is a businessman. He knew the general when he was a child. She is very good at pleasing people. The servants and maids all say that she is beautiful and kind-hearted. She is a fairy chosen by the heavens to save all living beings!"
Ma Xiahe, the second wife, said angrily, "Bah, she is just a commoner who is better than a beggar. Why is she pretending to be the daughter of a rich and powerful family? I get angry when I hear her say that. One day I will suppress her arrogance and let her know who is the favored person in the mansion!"
The maid Xiao Zi comforted the Second Madam Ma Xiahe and said, "Yes, Madam, don't be angry. She is just a lowly maid. Compared with our noble Second Madam, she is not worth mentioning. Besides, she has not yet married into the Fan Mansion. Maybe she is just a flash in the pan and will soon be sent back to the mansion by the old lady."
Second Madam Ma Xiahe felt a little calmer after hearing what the maid Xiao Zi said.
Among the many ladies, the calmest person is probably the Sixth Lady Lou Yunsi.
Luo Yun heard about Hu Lijing from other maids, and hurried back to report to Lou Yunsi: "Madam, I heard that the old lady invited a distant relative to stay in the mansion for a while, and gave her a separate courtyard, with servants and maids to serve her."
Before Luo Yun finished speaking, Lou Yunsi asked, "Is it a young girl?"
Luo Yun continued, "Madam, you guessed it right! I heard from the maids that the old lady dotes on her and has given her many clothes and jewelry. Every month, she receives the same things as the other ladies. Everyone says that she is the future Seventh Madam of the General!"
Lou Yunsi said: "My goodness, I am like a takeaway, and she is like that precious takeaway."
Luo Yun asked in confusion: "Madam, how did you become a gift from someone who sells it outside?"
Lou Yunsi smiled and said, "What I mean is, I am the one who is not loved by anyone, and she is the one who has been doted on since she entered the mansion!"
Lou Yunsi thought: My goodness, although having three wives and four concubines was the norm in ancient times, it will take an indefinite time to get married. Will it turn into a pig farm for me to be happy?
Luo Yun saw what Madam was thinking about and thought that she was very sad, so he comforted her: "Madam, don't be sad. Maybe after a while, that woman will leave."
Lou Yunsi saw what Luo Yun was thinking, patted Luo Yun on the shoulder and said, "I was just thinking, several ladies have formed a basketball team, and now there is another backup. When that woman marries into the mansion, I will go from being the first backup to being the water dispenser manager. I don't want to become a cleaning lady sweeping the toilet by then."
Luo Yun had no idea what Lou Yunsi was thinking and thought that the lady was too sad and her speech was incoherent.
At this time, Wangcai suddenly ran over and said to Lou Yunsi: "Madam, something bad has happened. I heard that a ferocious beast has come to the mansion and is going to eat all our food!"
Uh... In Wangcai's world, there is nothing but eating. Lou Yunsi guessed that the beast version that Wangcai heard was probably about the new cousin.
So, Lou Yunsi said, "Wangcai, go and plant your watermelons. If you don't concentrate on planting watermelons, I will bring that beast to find you and eat up all your crops!"
Wangcai was so scared that he ran off to plant melons, while Lou Yunsi laughed out loud.
Lou Yunsi thought: I calculated with my fingers that a storm is coming, and the drama of the wealthy family's mansion fight is about to begin. I really want to see the first lady, the second lady and the new cousin pulling each other's hair. It must be very exciting! Wait for Wangcai to plant the watermelon and prepare to eat it!
