Chapter 526 The Rebirth of a Noble Concubine from a bygone era (Part 1)
"Ah~ No... Young Master, save me~"
In the Feng family courtyard, a traditional Chinese courtyard house, a short, delicate female voice came from the second courtyard, not far from the main house.
That was the courtyard of the Feng family's only son, and today was the auspicious day for the eldest young master Feng to take a concubine.
At this moment, the important members of the Feng family were entertaining relatives and friends in the front yard. Although it was just taking a concubine, she was still a noble concubine, so two tables of food were set up.
As for Tong Xiangxiang, who was taken as a concubine, she had just been carried into the bridal chamber through a side door and had been bored, so she unconsciously lay down on the bed and dozed off for a while.
In that short while, she dreamt of what happened after she became the concubine of Feng Changqing, the young master of the Feng family.
Startled, Tong Xiangxiang sat up abruptly, still in shock, staring blankly at the new house!
A pair of eyes that should have been gentle and tender now looked as still as a deep well, unfocused.
Tong Xiangxiang was very beautiful. Her whole family were servants of the Feng family, which is why she was chosen by the old lady to be the concubine of the young master of the Feng family.
Although Xiangxiang was a servant in the Feng family, she did all the easy work.
Although she grew up in this chaotic world, her family was protected by the Feng family and never suffered hardship or fatigue. Tong Xiangxiang also had naturally fair skin, so she looked as if she had been pampered with beautiful skin.
Although Xiangxiang had never done heavy work, she was not a pampered young lady either, and there were still some calluses on her fingers.
Xiangxiang's eyes are round with slightly drooping corners, like crescent moons holding a pool of clear spring water.
The eyebrows are natural crescent shapes, light in color, and gently spread along the brow bone, as if lightly brushed with a fine brush.
When their gaze falls upon someone, it always carries a touch of casual warmth, like a stream warmed by the spring sun, clear and soft.
When she blinks, her eyelashes flutter gently, like butterfly wings touching the surface of water, creating tiny ripples. There is no aggression in her eyes; on the contrary, it makes people feel comfortable.
Even when Tong Xiangxiang doesn't smile, there seems to be a faint smile in her eyes when she looks at people.
Looking at it for a long time will remind you of the morning mist in Jiangnan, hazy and gentle, as if it can gently melt away all the sharp emotions.
Tong Xiangxiang's frightened appearance now gives people a pitiful feeling, making people want to hug her and comfort her.
When Feng Changqing was outside, he saw a girl who was as gentle and delicate as water, and that was the feeling she gave him.
Feng Changqing assumed that the young girl was afraid. After all, it was normal for her to be afraid when she was so young and had to marry a man much older than her as a concubine.
He stepped into the room, slightly lifting his dark blue robe, then pulled over a chair and nodded gently and politely to Xiangxiang.
"My mother said you are Uncle Tong's eldest daughter. I suppose you know me, right?" The deep, magnetic voice made Xiangxiang cautiously examine this young master whom she had only seen a few times from afar in her previous life.
In my memory, the eldest son's eyes were always thoughtful, his gaze was calm, and when he looked at people, he was gentle but not sharp. When he talked to people, he spoke slowly and his tone was gentle and scholarly.
His posture is upright yet not stiff, and when he sits, his back is straight. Even in a simple thatched hut or on a street stone step, he exudes a sense of proper manners.
He was also very kind to the servants. If any of the servants in the Feng family were hardworking and ambitious, the eldest young master would give them a chance to stand out. Her younger brother was sent to school by the master at the eldest young master's request.
Such a young master can make people feel inferior. Although Xiangxiang knew that as a servant, she would not have any interaction with the young master, she was still a person and had fantasized about getting close to that unattainable man.
However, she was also aware of the distance between them, so she never harbored any wishful thinking.
Xiangxiang looked calmly at the young master, remaining silent. She knew what he was about to say.
Sure enough, I heard him say, “Taking a concubine was not my original intention, but I couldn’t go against my parents’ wishes. They made the decision on my own while I was away. Now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to agree to their actions.”
Feng Changqing paused for a moment, then explained, "The two elders are also eager to have a grandchild, so if you're unwilling, I'll set you free after some time..."
Before Feng Changqing could finish speaking, the pretty girl's eyes immediately reddened, and tears welled up in her naturally charming, clear, and expressive eyes.
"Don't cry yet, let me finish what I have to say before you cry, okay?" Feng Changqing had never seen a woman cry before, so he was a little flustered for a moment.
The little girl is about to cry, and he is giving orders in a somewhat incoherent manner.
The only women he had contact with at home were his mother and wife, but they were both traditional women who regarded their husbands as their masters. The women Feng Changqing saw at home were all gentle and obedient.
He had seen many married women who had to serve their parents-in-law, manage their busy husbands' affairs so that the men at home wouldn't have to worry about anything, and raise their children and maintain the family's reputation.
The women I see working away from home are resilient and clear-headed, like wild chrysanthemums blooming in the wind and rain, unassuming yet carrying a vitality that "endures the cold winter and blooms in spring."
They don't cry easily in front of men.
Feng Changqing had never seen a woman as delicate and frail as his new concubine, yet who inspired such a protective instinct in him.
"Does the young master dislike Xiangxiang? Is that why he said he would send me home on the very first day Xiangxiang entered the family?" After saying this, the tears that were about to fall finally came down.
On this day in his previous life, Feng Changqing said even more, the central idea being that what he learned outside was the concept of monogamy.
Even if the Feng family needed children to carry on the family line, Feng Changqing could divorce his wife first and then marry another woman to have children. He had no intention of taking a concubine.
Feng Changqing had only been away on a long trip when he heard that his mother and wife had arranged for him to take a concubine, and that this concubine was only 17 years old, a full 12 years younger than Feng Changqing.
This made Feng Changqing feel that he was not a good match for the young girl in terms of age, so he thought it would be better to make things clear with her in advance, which is why he had these words with the girl today.
"I don't dislike you, I just don't want to hurt you. I'm doing this for your own good. Right now, people outside are promoting new ideas of liberation."
"Advocating for equality for all, the glory of labor, and equal pay for equal work for men and women, some places have now legislated to abolish the feudal marriage system and encourage women to participate in production and political construction..."
