Chapter 325: Decision (1)
That same evening. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Mrs. Luo, who had red eyes, returned to Luo's Mansion with Luo Ting's support.
"Poor Sister Yu," Mrs. Luo's voice choked: "She is only sixteen years old this year, such a flower-like age, she hasn't married and had children, so she just let go......"
Yang Yu is the niece of Mrs. Luo's parents-in-law, and she also grew up under Mrs. Luo's watch. Affectionate, there is no need to go into details. Not to mention, Yang Yu is also her future daughter-in-law. Seeing that he was going to marry into the Luo family in two months, he never thought that he would die of illness at this time.
Mrs. Luo was not only sad about Yang Yu's sudden death, but also sad for her son's family affairs. I had already cried twice at Yang's house during the day, and when I returned to Luo's house at this time, I couldn't help crying again.
Luo Shangshu and Mrs. Luo have a very strong relationship, seeing that Mrs. Luo is so sad, Luo Shangshu is also quite uncomfortable, and whispered comfortingly: "Sister Yu's life is not blessed, this is also a helpless thing." Don't be too sad. β
There are still some words, but Luo Shangshu is inconvenient to say directly.
Yang Yu had a short life and was blessed, and he died of an illness. Fortunately, she hasn't married into the Luo family yet, and Luo Ting doesn't have to bear the reputation of being a widower. If you keep it for a year, you won't delay a lifelong event.
Mrs. Luo sobbed for a moment, and then her mood calmed down a little, gently wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and then looked up at Luo Ting, who had been silent.
"Ting, don't be too upset. Mrs. Luo cheered up and comforted Luo Ting: "You are still young, and you and Sister Yu have no fate as husband and wife." Wait for the last year, and my mother will pick another family business for you. β
For example, Miss Gu Er in the house next door.
Before, he was afraid of the prince's mansion, and the Luo family did not dare to come to the door to propose marriage.
Now that the prince of Qi is making a fuss, Gu Wanning's reputation has been greatly affected. Gu Hai was furious, and impeached the prince of Qi in the court, making it clear that he wanted to draw a clear line with the Qi Palace. In this way, it is impossible for the Gu family to marry the Qi Palace. Taisun is also dying of illness when he sees it, and he can't tell if he can't survive one day, and he will die.
Gu Wanning's family affairs were also embarrassed.
Mrs. Luo suddenly felt that this was the will of heaven. Luo Ting has always had Gu Wanning in his heart, perhaps, this is God fulfilling Luo Ting.
After a year and a half, I will go to the Gu family to propose marriage, and I will not refuse to come to the Gu family if I want to. In addition to the grandson and the prince of Qi, Luo Ting is also an excellent boy who is difficult to find in the world!
Mrs. Luo was secretly thinking in her heart, so she heard Luo Ting say in a low voice: "Mother, Cousin Yang is my wife who has not passed through the door. Now that she died of a sudden illness at a young age, I want to keep filial piety for her for three years. β
β¦β¦
What the?!
Three years of filial piety?
Mrs. Luo was taken aback and blurted out: "How can this work! You are already sixteen this year, and if you delay until next year, you will be seventeen." If you live three years, you will be nineteen. Wouldn't that delay your life's work? No, never!"
No matter how close her niece is, she can't kiss her son.
Besides, Yang Yu is dead. After Mrs. Luo was sad, she naturally had to plan for Luo Ting's life.
Luo Shangshu also frowned, and said in a deep voice: "If you keep Sister Yu for a year and then talk about kissing, even the Yang family can't find the slightest bit of it." You don't have to keep it for three years!"
When a parent dies, the child is required to observe filial piety for three years.
When the husband dies, the wife must also observe filial piety for three years.
A man should keep his wife filial piety for only one year. What's more, Yang Yu is just a fiancΓ©e who has not yet passed the door. Luo Ting is willing to keep filial piety for a year, and he has already completed all the etiquette. Three years is too much.
Luo Ting insisted: "Cousin Yang and I are not only cousins and sisters, but also an unmarried couple who are about to get married. Now that my cousin is dead, I will keep her for three years before marrying someone else. β
Mrs. Luo was in a hurry, and even the words in her heart came out: "Ah Ting, I know that you are still thinking about Gu Guanning in your heart." In the past, your father and I stopped you because we didn't want to offend the prince's mansion. Now that Taisun is sick like this, he probably won't be able to survive for long. Anyway, the Gu family and the prince's mansion have not yet decided on a family matter, and as soon as the grandson leaves, Gu Guanning will have to say goodbye again. When the time comes, I will come to the door for you to propose marriage, and it will be considered that your heart will be fulfilled......"
"Mother, don't say it!"
"Madame, be careful!"
Luo Ting and Luo Shangshu interrupted Mrs. Luo in unison.
Luo Shangshu frowned, his expression was cold and stern: "What is the condition of His Royal Highness Taisun, how can you, a woman in the house, talk about it wantonly! Even if there are no outsiders at this time, don't talk nonsense!"
As the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Luo Shangshu is a square person, and the most important etiquette rules.
Luo Shangshu straightened his face, and Mrs. Luo was suddenly stunned: "I lost my words in a hurry, so I won't say it in the future." β
Luo Shangshu's expression eased at this time, and then looked at Luo Ting: "Since your mother has spoken it, I will also say a few words." The so-called time and time, we stopped you that day, and we thought about it. Now I'm willing to plan for you, and you don't have to be cowardly. β
In the past few months, there has been little smile on Luo Ting's face. On weekdays, he stays at the official office of the Criminal Department on an errand and rarely returns home.
The Luo family, which was once harmonious and cheerful, was much quieter and colder.
Luo Ting's thoughts, not only Mrs. Luo knows, but also Luo Shangshu understands it clearly. Yang Yugang died of illness, and he shouldn't have mentioned another marriage. However, since it has already been said, I will simply make it clear.
For Luo Shangshu, such a statement can be regarded as making up for Luo Ting in disguise.
The husband and wife looked at Luo Ting together, waiting for Luo Ting to show his face happily.
Unexpectedly, Luo Ting was not moved, and his handsome face was expressionless: "Dad, mother, don't say anything." Cousin Yang had just passed away, and I wasn't in the mood to think about it. Let's talk about it in three years!"
Without waiting for Luo Shangshu and his wife to say anything, he said, "Today is a busy day, and I am also tired, so I will go back and rest first." β
After speaking, he bowed and turned to leave.
Mrs. Luo watched Luo Ting leave in a daze, and only said to Luo Shangshu after a while: "Is Ah Ting still angry with us?"
Luo Shangshu also furrowed his brows, and replied with some annoyance: "That's it! He doesn't want to do it now, and he will probably come to us again in the future." Leave him alone now!"
That's just as well.
Mrs. Luo was quickly relieved and said in a low voice: "There is really no need to rush this matter, and it will not be too late to mention it when it comes to this time next year." β
The husband and wife whispered, and Luo Ting, at this time, had already strode back to his room.
It was dark, there was no candlestick in the room, and it was gloomy.
Luo Ting, who maintained a calm look in front of his parents, finally took off his mask at this time, revealing depression and loneliness.
They were light-hearted and optimistic. It's a pity that the Gu family will never agree. With Gu Wanning's temperament and temper, it is impossible to nod again.
If you miss it, you miss it, how can you have a chance to start over?
A figure quietly appeared by the door.
