Chapter 63: Asking for Marriage
Old Lady Meng, an elder, had nothing to do, and turned the goal of matchmaking to Shen Wei and He Chushu.
Shen Wei respected He Chushu, and she didn't have such a fierce reaction as Huai'an, she thought about how to say it so as not to refute He Chushu's face, and after thinking about it, she felt that it was better for He Chushu to explain to the Meng family.
She also found out from this that her reaction to the words of the matchmaker still depends on people, that Meng Huai'an is not bad, he gives people a feeling that even if he loses his temper at him, he is fine, and he is not scolded, but he gets along with him naturally, and there is no need to deliberately hide his bad personality.
But to He Chushu, she inexplicably showed a polite appearance.
Talking to He Chushu in private, He Chushu understood her intentions, and spoke first: "You are right, if what you have learned in this life can still come in handy, you should give it full play to make contributions, and you should not be disturbed by the love of your children, thank you, let me understand some things, and I plan to let go of some things." ”
However, Shen Wei remembered Siqing's words, and hurriedly waved her hand and said: "Oh, sir, don't be affected by my words, I thought it was too absolute before, yesterday Siqing told me that feelings and careers are not in conflict, if you like it, you don't have to deliberately suppress it, I think this is right, as long as you don't get carried away by feelings and affect others, you don't have to endure it, just let it spread in your heart." ”
He Chushu was stunned and looked at her thoughtfully: "This statement...... It also makes sense. ”
His heart, which had no firmness, began to waver again in these words.
For example, he told himself not to think about someone, but the more he persuaded himself not to think about it, the more he couldn't help but think about it, and in the end, he even hoped that he could join hands with her openly and make the world know.
Shen Wei asked him to be a representative to refuse the Meng family, he went, and after refusing, he brought a message that made everyone's jaws drop.
He opened his mouth to ask the Meng family for marriage, and the object of the marriage was naturally the fourth young lady Siqing.
Mrs. Meng stiffened, she didn't react for a long time, and after a long time, she trembled and held Pan Lanfang's hand, hung the person in place, couldn't say anything, and staggered away step by step.
She went to inform Meng Hongxian, Meng Hongxian, who was supposed to come forward, had an impression of He Chushu like a master outside the world, and a master outside the world would also move his heart, so is he still a master?
What's more, Siqing also called him a teacher.
He was afraid that the image he had established in his heart would collapse, so he was afraid for no reason, so he didn't respond to this matter, just dragged it and avoided He Chushu.
As for what Siqing thought, it was unimportant in the eyes of the Meng family, and no one paid attention to her reaction.
This matter was spread by the fast-talking He family, and her group of aunts and friends didn't feel much of it, but the reaction of the art world centered on Sigu Xuan was great.
The others were still discussing, but Lin Shaowei came directly to He Chushu and asked, "That's your apprentice, are you going to ruin your reputation?"
"Why can't you be an apprentice?"
"Of course not, it's unethical. ”
"It's not a rule, it's just a rule, and I'm going to break it. He Chushu pushed his hand away.
"You're just ...... Do you know what everyone says about you now, you were originally in a high position in the painting world, if you are obsessed with it, you will soon fall. ”
He Chushuqi said: "Why do I have so many things to ask for a kiss, why can't you just look at my paintings and not look at my life?"
Lin Shaowei shook his head angrily: "Outsiders put you on the altar, not only for your works, but also for the influence of your beliefs on them, if their beliefs are not there, no matter how good your paintings are, no one will support them, don't you understand?"
He Chushu was silent for a moment, and said mournfully: "That...... I'll stop drawing, that's it. ”
"You ......" Lin Shaowei gritted his teeth, "I really can't believe it, He Chushu, a famous painter, also has a day when he is carried away by feelings, you are desperate like this, I bet it will be all empty in the end, because, with Meng Hongxian's old antique, he will definitely not agree." ”
These words made He Chushu wake up like a dream, yes, this matter is not something he can say alone, but she and her family have to promise.
He went to find Meng Hongxian, but Meng Hongxian avoided him and didn't meet him for several days.
During this period, several people in the porcelain art society also had their own ideas.
Xu Xiaoyuan thought: "Mr. He's move has too much impact on his personal image. ”
Shen Wei thought: "No wonder Mr. He rejected me directly, it turned out that he was holding back his big move." ”
Weng Rongrong thought: "Dare to love and hate, so handsome!"
And Xiang Fu thought: "He is more than ten years older than my sister-in-law, is he sincere or has other plans, her father doesn't care, I have to take care of it, no, I'll ask my father." ”
He immediately asked a ghostwriter to write a letter to Xiang Zhihua, and Xiang Zhihua replied quickly, replying three times at once.
One is for Xiang Fu, so that he doesn't have to interfere much, the other is for Siqing, telling her to do everything from her heart and not to care about the outside world's opinions, and the third letter is for He Chushu, he has met He Chushu a few times, and he knows that he is a person, and he agrees with the letter saying that he agrees with the matter of asking for marriage.
Looking at it, whether it is in the industry or outsiders, Xiang Zhihua is the only supporter.
This letter made He Chushu's heart even firmer, since it was proposed, there must be an ending.
He went to find Meng Hongxian again, Meng Hongxian knew that he couldn't hide, and he mustered up a lot of courage to dare to face him, but he was not alone, he gathered all the people in his family to come together.
Before that, he had discussed with Mrs. Meng, and to be honest, in fact, He Chushu, as the son-in-law of the Meng family, was a very good candidate...... Suppose he is not a teacher of the Meng family.
So he asked He Chushu a question, and He Chushu said that he was willing to quit the painting world and no longer had the status of master and apprentice with Siqing.
When it came to this, Meng Hongxian could see his sincerity.
However, sincerity is worthless to the Meng family.
He said: "Siqing's situation is special, you should know, originally I didn't allow her to learn porcelain painting, and then I couldn't let her learn it, but there are also requirements, she personally promised me that she would not get married until the Meng family's porcelain painting skills were passed on to the next generation, you ask her, did she say this?"
He Chushu looked at Siqing in shock and cast an inquiring glance at her.
Siqing didn't dare to look at him, lowered her head and pinched the placket of her clothes, and replied softly: "Yes." ”
"Why did you agree to such an unreasonable request, who said that feelings should not be suppressed?" He Chushu was angry and distressed, her lowered eyes looked a little cowardly in his eyes, but also a little sad.
He wanted to reprimand and was reluctant, he wanted to pity but couldn't, the two thoughts were intertwined, and it was he who tortured.
Moreover, he will also be misguided.
Even the whole family can be wrong.
Siqing agreed not to get married, because her feelings were placed on an impossible person, she was not forced to be helpless, in fact, not letting her get married was just enough to block other people, so as not to bother and trouble.
But she couldn't explain it, if she could make He Chushu retract her thoughts, then it would be good to use this reason.
However, there are often some teammates who can't figure it out.
Meng Hongxian didn't accept it when he saw it, his mind didn't turn around, and he said: "But there is an exception, if someone is willing to join the Meng family, Siqing can get married." ”
After that, he looked at He Chushu with confidence: "Mr. will definitely not agree to join the family." ”
He Chushu slowly moved his gaze back from Siqing, his frowning brows slowly stretched, and after a moment of silence, he straightened his collar and hem, took a step back, and solemnly raised his hand to salute: "I agree." ”
The tone is understated, and the face is calm and determined.
But I don't know what kind of torment the person who spoke has experienced in his heart, and he has come to this time, and I don't know if this mental journey has abused him all over his body and is full of holes.
Who said that the country and the family, love and karma, if you weigh it well, there will be no conflict?
He's obviously ...... Completely poured aside, where is the trade-off?
Three words were spit out, and Meng Hongxian was speechless, this was something beyond his ability.
Meng Hongxian didn't speak, and the old lady had no choice but to speak: "Mr. has done this, if we have any more opinions, we can't say it, but...... It also requires the consent of the person concerned, and I think what the husband wants should be the pleasure of the two parties, not the order of the parents. ”
After that, he looked at Siqing: "What do you think?"
The old lady has always controlled the marriage of her juniors, but at this time, she lightly handed over the decision to Siqing.
If it is someone else, whether it will succeed or not is a matter of their words, but in the face of this, it is a dilemma, and she immediately decided to hand over the difficulty, so the person whose original point of view was not important now has the right to decide for himself.
The surroundings are quiet and silent, in this situation, some people want to get out of the dust and settle down, escape from the chaotic but helpless world, and some people are pressing step by step, so that she can't leave and can't hide.
He Chushu looked at Siqing intently, as soon as she raised her eyes, she met his gaze, and hurriedly lowered her head, watching a person's reaction in the afterglow.
But the man didn't react, he jumped out, put himself in a completely unrelated position, and remained silent from beginning to end.
Of course, this matter had nothing to do with him in the first place.
But for Siqing, how could it be okay?
But when she heard the old lady cough, intended to remind her that it was time to answer the question, she quickly withdrew her afterglow, calmed down, took a few deep breaths, and finally raised her head, met the gaze, and said softly and firmly:
"The teacher put down his body for me like this, and he made compromises, if I am with you, the future marriage must be unequal, and when the enthusiasm is dissipated at this moment, he will return to the dull life, and then when I think back, it is inevitable that I will have regrets and unwillingness, I really can't guarantee that you will treat me as you do now...... Even if your feelings are always eager, but because of me, you have given up your great reputation, and those who love you and respect you will come to scold me and hate me, and I will be infamous for a lifetime, and I will inevitably be lost and sad, no matter what the situation, it is not what I want. ”
