Chapter 64: The Old Lady's Cunning

The old lady answered: "You don't have to be like this, I still don't know you for so many years? It has nothing to do with you, but in the end, it is your daughter-in-law, and how to deal with it has to be discussed by the three of us.

Chopin's heart was cold, and he felt bitter, but this result was something he had expected a long time ago, to be honest, the old lady was already merciful for not giving her three feet of white silk, and he didn't dare to hesitate: "But it's up to the mother."

The old lady nodded, and said: "You are also in your thirties, and you don't have a sister-in-law, you don't have a concubine, our Xiao family is thin, and your daughter-in-law is jealous, I used to be too lazy to interfere, but in the future, I should accept a few concubines, and choose a proper person to temporarily manage the affairs in your room.

Chopin was ashamed, happy and moved, and muttered, "Mother treats her son... It's just that the kudzu scarf is used by my mother's side..."The old lady shook her head and rubbed her forehead, "No matter how you are a slave, how can you cross you? Although you were not born to me, you have been quite filial all these years, and you can still afford to sacrifice your mother for this idea."

What kind of character is Ge Jian, how can Chopin not know? Then he knew that the old lady was really for her own good, and hurriedly agreed. The old lady said: "Rao'er is older, and the marriage should be prepared. I met the wife of the governor of Shandong a few days ago, and they have a sister-in-law who is seventeen years old this year and has not yet said that he is married.

Chopin Hong was pleasantly surprised: "But Shandong Governor Yuan Weitao's family?" The old lady bowed her head, "Exactly." Yuan Weitao, the governor of Shandong, is a high-ranking official in charge of a province and a second grade, the ancestral home of the Yuan family is Hebei, and it is also a big family in Hebei. Without asking how the child was, the old lady shook her head secretly, and said: "I have seen the child of that family, but it is also a talent, if you have no opinion, I will talk to Mrs. Yuan."

When Chopard was gone, only the mother and son were left to sit opposite each other, and the old lady sighed leisurely, took off her guard, and looked a little tired and old.

The old lady stroked the stubble and haggard face of her only biological son who was nearly forty years old, and a trace of tears in her eyes was fleeting: "Hurry up, what are you angry with your mother, what is this?"

Chopin Wei thought about his father's early death, and his mother, who was a princess, single-handedly pulled him to grow up, how much bitterness he had in the process.

The old lady comforted in her heart, patted Chopardway, and smiled reluctantly: "Silly son, for you, what is my mother reluctant to do?" said with some embarrassment: "Maybe it's because I'm getting old, I've been thinking about whether I'm wrong lately, remarrying in Dayong is not too new, if I accepted Gu's back then, and taught her to be a director all these years, would I be able to avoid today's situation?"

Chopin Wei served his mother to filial piety, but he disobeyed his mother with the Gu family back then, and he was not guilty in his heart over the years, he said sullenly, "My mother was reluctant to welcome her to the door, if she was wronged for her son like that, his son would not feel good." Saying that, he cheered up again, and deliberately coaxed the old lady to laugh and said: "It's not too late, Dongwei will marry next year, and when the time comes, it will be handed over to the Gu family and his daughter-in-law, and the son will accompany his mother to walk around as soon as he is free.

The old lady couldn't help but smile when she thought of that kind of situation, and patted the back of Chopard's hand, "That's good, if the Gu family can add a kid to you, it will be even better."

The old lady pulled Choparin Wei to sit down beside her and asked, "Seeing that the daughters are all older, and the children are the elders, do you have any plans for her marriage?"

Chopin Wei said respectfully: "Xian'er grew up beside her mother since she was a child, and her mother naturally cared for her, I don't know what her mother means?" The old lady thought of Cheng Lingye, shook her head and said: "I took a fancy to Ye'er's child before, but who knew that there was something about Princess Yuheng, and this family business is not done.

Speaking of business, Chopard Wei said: "We will choose a concubine for the prince next year, and before that, we must choose a family affair for Xian'er."

The old lady had a hint of sadness, "How many daughters in our family, is it possible that each of them can quickly decide whether to marry or not?

Chopard couldn't help but interject: "But..."The old lady's face showed the scheming of her youth, "Don't worry, not only do we don't want to, but that one must also be unwilling, and he won't let a few princes marry the daughters of our family."

Chopard was startled, saved his joints, nodded and said, "My son is confused, what my mother said." He also said: "Today, the princess of Anshun County went out and encountered a few blackmailers, saying that the carriage hit them and they had to pay compensation, and the princess of the county had no choice but to pay a hundred taels of compensation."

The old lady's expression was not as usual, it was very strange, sad, angry, sad, frightened, she seemed to be very tired, leaning on the big pillow, and her calm voice was as resentful as a storm: "The Anshun County Palace's low-key attitude over the years is as if it doesn't exist, and those people still don't dare to relax..."

Chopard knew that this was the pain of his mother's life, and he regretted that he had talked too much, so he hurriedly said: "Mother is wise, my son has always been worried about Le Yu's family affairs, I don't know if my mother has any plans for Le Yu's marriage?"

The old lady lost her temper only for a moment, and in a blink of an eye, she recovered and said lightly: "This girl is very smart, and her temperament is stubborn, her identity is not up or down, this marriage is a headache.

Chopard Wei just wanted to divert the topic, nodded absentmindedly.Waiting for his mother to rest, Chopardway returned to Yaohuaju alone with frost and dew, very quiet inside and out, only the lamp was still lit in his wife's room.Under the light, Le Yu's silhouette was thin, wiping the sweat on his forehead from time to time for the sleeping Gu, his eyes were full of softness and attachment, as well as the joy and nervousness of being lost and regained.
