The fragrance of medicine is alluring, the farm elder sister is cool and cool
Chapter 497 Obedience Test
The two took the teacups and drank. The eldest sister-in-law Kang's eyes curved into crescents and she said with a smile, "Don't be so polite, second brother and sister-in-law. This is a small gift from sister-in-law. Please accept it."
Wen Qingcheng thanked him and gave it to Bai Wei to keep. She then took the sachet that Qingluo had prepared long ago as a return gift. Wen Qingcheng continued to walk back. The man in his twenties stood up and saluted to Wen Qingcheng with his fists clasped. "Hello, second sister-in-law."
Wen Qingcheng looked up and saw the man, who looked like a rich young man. He was similar in build to Mo Jinghong, but more handsome than Mo Jinghong. He was respectful and submissive, and he didn't look like the kind of dandy who would cause trouble everywhere. No wonder the King of Qin didn't believe him at first and easily put the blame on Mo Jinghong. This Mo Jingqi was just like Mo Lianyi in the palace, both of them were extremely different. Wen Qingcheng looked into his bright peach blossom eyes and blushed for a moment. She lowered her head and said, "Hello, third brother."
Afterwards, she met the family members of the palace one by one, and her manners were perfect and impeccable. The old concubine had been watching from the side, secretly amazed that Wen Qingcheng, who was born as a low-class person, had elegant manners and was well-educated. She was not frightened in any situation, and looked like a legitimate daughter raised in a marquis's mansion. She had good manners and conversation. Apart from her unpresentable deeds, she looked like a perfect match with her grandson Mo Jinghong.
After the tea was served, a group of maids dressed in the same attire filed in, each holding tea, fruit and snacks. The men continued to sit in the outer hall, while the women entered the inner hall.
Soon, the aroma of food could be smelled, and plates of breakfast were brought up. Wen Qingcheng took a look and saw the table filled with milky coconut rolls, fried onion fried dough twists, three-fresh mushroom soup, and some seasonal fruits and vegetables.
Wen Qingcheng and the other women quietly finished their meal and then went to a small flower hall. Kang, Mo Ying, and several concubines and sisters of the palace hugged Wen Qingcheng and talked and laughed. Wen Qingcheng was not familiar with them either, so she just smiled and listened to them, occasionally responding. After a while, they stopped talking to Wen Qingcheng. The atmosphere was also very happy. If Wen Qingcheng had not heard about the situation in the palace, she would really feel that she had married into a harmonious and happy family.
However, this superficial harmony was soon broken. A woman was heard crying outside the room. Princess Qin frowned and said, "What's going on? Who is crying outside? It's such a happy day. Get out now!"
A maid came in and replied, "Princess, it's Amber from the prince's room. She's crying outside and wants to come and pay her respects to the prince's wife."
Wen Qingcheng watched coldly, wanting to see what they were up to. The King of Qin was a little annoyed by Amber's crying, and said, "If this girl wants to meet the Crown Prince's Consort, why is she crying!"
The old maid with wrinkles on her face replied, "Your Highness, this girl is pregnant with the prince's child, and she wants to go back to the prince's courtyard. She doesn't ask for a title, but only wants to stay and serve the prince and his wife."
The King of Qin's face darkened and he said angrily, "This rebellious son only wanted to have a good time and did such a thing. He is so irresponsible! Let her come in and talk."
The woman named Amber walked in gracefully. She was about 18 years old. Although her appearance was not stunning, she was still a little beauty. She had a slender waist and long legs. If it weren't for the slightly bulging belly, you really wouldn't have known that she was pregnant.
Amber first paid her respects to the old concubine and the others, then knelt down and walked to Wen Qingcheng and begged her. She picked up a cup of tea from the table next to Wen Qingcheng's seat and raised it above her head, begging her to accept her.
Wen Qingcheng believed in Mo Jinghong's character 100%. She knew that Mo Jinghong was an upright man and would not treat his former maid with contempt. She was afraid that there must be a trap here.
"My Lady, if you don't agree, I will kneel down and not get up."
Wen Qingcheng rolled her eyes silently in her heart. Who are you threatening? If you want to kneel, then kneel down. Do you think you can threaten her this way?
Kang said, "Oh, this girl is so pitiful, she is so pregnant. My second brother is really a fool. Father and mother, if Amber cannot be properly placed, this girl will commit suicide."
Wen Qingcheng smiled and said, "Why not let Big Brother take Amber into the room?"
Kang's face turned visibly green. The eldest brother Mo Jingjun said, "What are you talking about, sister-in-law? Amber is carrying my second brother's child. You are the principal wife, and when the child is born, he will call you mother."
Wen Qingcheng looked at Qingluo inquiringly, and Qingluo said, "Amber was originally in the prince's room. Later, the prince left the capital. Except for Xia Nan and I who are still in the prince's courtyard, everyone else was sent away. We need to wait until the prince comes back to ask about this matter."
Amber raised her tearful eyes and looked at Qingluo. "Sister Qingluo, we served the prince together before. Don't you know what kind of person I am? Would I lie about such a big thing? I wouldn't dare to do it even if you gave me ten guts."
Qingluo didn't say anything. Amber was very clever, but she wasn't very obedient. When she was serving the prince, she held on to the prince's clothes and refused to let go. She tried to get close to the prince several times, but the prince was a gentleman and didn't have that intention. After the prince fled, Amber and the other second-class maids were sent to other places. When the prince came back, he never saw Amber. Unexpectedly, Amber came to him with a big belly the day after the prince got married. Whether the child was the prince's remained to be verified. Although the prince had no improper thoughts about Amber, if Amber used some tricks, the prince was a man after all, and it was hard to guarantee that he would not be seduced by her. Qingluo was a little unsure for a while.
"If my father and mother really want me to take Amber into the room, I'm sorry I can't obey your order." Wen Qingcheng said calmly. There were Mo Jinghong's elders here, and Wen Qingcheng would not argue with them on the second day of the wedding. She would try to talk to them in a calm tone and give them respect.
As soon as these words came out, the woman named Amber knelt on the ground and began to cry. Mo Ying and Kang Shi were both persuading Wen Qingcheng to be magnanimous as the principal wife. The King of Qin also strongly demanded that Wen Qingcheng take Qiuyue to Wen Qingcheng's courtyard. The old concubine was biased and believed that it was Mo Jinghong's fault. Wen Qingcheng, the new wife, did not listen to the elders as soon as she came. I think she has the same temperament as Mo Jinghong. She also wanted to train Wen Qingcheng to be obedient from the beginning, otherwise she would not be able to control her in the future.
Wen Qingcheng knew that this was a test of her obedience. No matter how pitiful and pleading Amber pretended to be, or how Princess Qin used filial piety to pressure her, she still didn't give in.
"Our Great Qi Dynasty governs the world with filial piety. Filial piety means taking good care of parents, and obedience means following their wishes. Second brother did such a thing, ruining the innocence of a girl, and was unwilling to take responsibility for it. Isn't this unfilial and unrighteous?" Mo Ying said sternly with a righteous look.
