Chapter 534: Delicate Flowers and Cow Dung
Zhuang Pingting remembered something and asked, "By the way, auntie, my brother is not in the mansion?" The fourth girl of the He family is here, didn't he say he wanted to see him before?"
Aunt Wu looked kind, "The young master read at night in the study last night, I heard that the study was still lit when it was almost dawn, I just went to his courtyard to ask, the maid said that he was still sleeping, I don't want to wake him up." I've seen the girl from the He family, and her appearance is very symbolic. β
Zhuang Huanting hesitated and said, "I went to Mrs. to say goodbye early this morning, and Mrs. said that someone heard the laughter of a woman in the middle of the night in my brother's study." β
Aunt Wu frowned: "Could it be that the maid said a few words when she brought the tea in, and someone heard it miscommunicated?"
Aunt Wu thought for a while, and then said: "But don't believe Madame's words, because our eldest young master is the most favored in front of the old lady, she can't wait to find something wrong and sue Grandpa Guo." If she hadn't stabbed her out of the previous incident, I would have sent the child born to the girl to be raised in Zhuangzi. β
Speaking of this, Zhuang Pingting also complained, and couldn't help but say: "If you want me to say that it is not a big deal for a man to have one or two children before he gets married, and there is no shortage of those two mouthfuls of food at home." β
Aunt Wu's beautiful and dignified face showed a hint of disdain, "People who are jealous always think that all women in the world are jealous." Mrs. told Grandpa Guo that she should find a family for the eldest young master as soon as possible, and it was best not to find a family that was too high. It hurts our eldest young master to give the family affairs in a hurry, otherwise, with the young master's appearance, this famous lady in the capital is not at his pick?"
Zhuang Pingting comforted Aunt Wu in turn, "Now that the family matter has been decided, it's too late to say anything now." I see that the fourth lady of the He family is still young, and her temperament is a little uncertain, but she also has the advantage of being young, marrying her back and teaching her well, she can always break her temperament back. β
Aunt Wu nodded with a smile and said: "What the eldest girl said is that marrying a wife and everything else is secondary, learning to be obedient and putting your own husband first in everything is the most important thing." β
At this time, Aunt Wu's maid came to report and said, "Auntie, the eldest young master is going to get up." β
Aunt Wu hurriedly said: "The young master is afraid that he is hungry, so quickly send the food I prepared before to the young master's courtyard, as well as the tonic soup that I put on the stove early in the morning! β
Aunt Wu said hello to Zhuang Huanting and left in a hurry.
Zhuang Pingting's maid sighed: "My aunt is really good to the young master, and of course she is also good to the girl." β
Zhuang Huanting nodded, "My aunt has no children herself, and she really treats us as her own children." β
The purpose of today's banquet in the Anguo Mansion is to let Zhuang Huanting, who is about to become the fifth princess, maintain her connections, and the other purpose is to persuade He Linwan. Both of these goals have almost been achieved, and the feast is almost coming to an end.
All the ladies ate in the Anguo Mansion, and after drinking another cup of tea, they said goodbye one after another.
The three sisters of the He family also said goodbye and left together, and when Zhuang Huanting sent them out, she glanced at He Linwan meaningfully, reminding her not to forget to promise herself.
He Ling was angry at the banquet today, although Zhuang Huanting was very kind to her, but she didn't mean to hold her in front of everyone, which made her very frustrated, so she was a little wilted when she went back.
When he was about to go out of the second door, a man dressed luxuriously and with a very beautiful face walked briskly from the other side, he originally walked to the door first, but when he saw the ladies coming, he immediately stopped and deliberately stood aside, squinting a pair of peach blossom eyes and smiling: "Distinguished guests, please first." β
The ladies didn't know who the beautiful man who suddenly appeared was, so they bowed their heads and saluted.
At this time, a young attendant ran over and reported to him: "The carriage is ready, the eldest young master ......."
The man raised his hand to cover the head of the little attendant, jokingly pulled him aside and whispered, "You look ugly, hide from it, don't stain the eyes of the girls." β
"Oh. β
The little squire obediently stood aside and covered his face.
The ladies were all amused, and went out of the second door with their heads bowed and red faces, while whispering.
"Is this Miss Zhuang's brother, the eldest son of the Zhuang family?"
"Didn't you hear someone call him the eldest young master, it must be. β
"It's not quite like Miss Zhuang. β
He Ling, who was still in a low mood just now, recovered her spirit at this time, with a blushing face, peeking back from time to time, but she was a little distracted, and almost stepped on He Lan's embroidered shoes.
He Lan saw He Ling's appearance and said to He Linwan: "Is that the third sister's fiancΓ© just now?"
He Linwan nodded.
He Lan whispered: "I look so good, I have a good temper, and my grandfather really loves my third sister." β
He Linwan smiled and didn't speak.
If it is really as good as He Lan said, the Wei family will deliberately induce He Chuanwu to pick this house for He Ling?
After they left, Zhuang Maoming was also talking about them with his attendants.
Zhuang Maoming: "Have you inquired clearly?Which one is the young master's fiancΓ©e?"
The attendant said, "Young Master, the three people who walk at the end are the girls of the He family......"
Zhuang Maoming's eyes lit up, and he said happily without waiting for the attendant to finish speaking: "But standing in the middle, the one who stands out the most?"
The attendant shook his head, "It's the one standing on the left, the one who just turned around and peeked at the young master." β
Zhuang Maoming was a little disappointed when he heard this, and tried to remember what the one on the far left looked like, but unfortunately his eyes that were good at finding beauties were the most tricky, and among a group of people, only the most outstanding one could enter his eyes.
Seeing that he was disappointed, the attendant hurriedly comforted: "The three girls of the He family are all good-looking." β
Zhuang Maoming looked up at the sky, his face full of sadness, "You are a layman, you know a fart! Young master, my beauty is the best in the capital, how can the wife I am looking for be inferior to others? Isn't this a delicate flower inserted on cow dung?"
The squire's face was indescribable.
After He Linwan went back, he called Hu Yao and instructed her: "Go and check the Aunt Wu of the An family, as well as Wu Liyan's life experience, check carefully, and don't miss anything." β
"Yes, girl! The girl checked their backgrounds, did she want to deal with the Anguo Mansion?"
Hu Yao has been following He Lin for a while, and he has a certain degree of understanding of her, if he wants to say that He Lin is spending so much effort just to deal with a Wu Liyan, Hu Yao doesn't believe it.
So she guessed that He Linwan was trying to deal with the Anguo Mansion with the help of Wu Liyan.
He Linwan asked in surprise: "What should I do to deal with the Anguo Mansion? β
The fox was stunned and puzzled.
He Linwan smiled, "I'm of great use, you can go." β
The fox went down in response.
