When Bai Xianghuan was young, it was not that he didn't care about marriage.

But at that time, he paid more attention to how to follow his father's path of martial arts, and how to be a Sven reader.

As for his wife, he had also imagined the appearance of his fiancée at the time, the eldest lady of the Zhai family, countless times in his mind.

Is it tall or short, fat or thin, will the temperament be as pungent as a mother, or as gentle and gentle as the ladies in those books?

He thought about it many times, and accepted it very calmly from the beginning, so for him, that marriage was just the order of his parents, and the words of the matchmaker were generally taken for granted.

The only thing he didn't think about was that Miss Zhai would regret her marriage in the end.

From that time on, he really realized that there were so many involuntary places in the matter of marriage.

So now when it comes to family affairs, he actually has nothing to do-

He is no longer the nerd who would only be bored in his yard and read to death, he naturally knows that there are thousands of kinds of women in this world, but it is by no means which one you imagined, and which one you can get in the end.

At the beginning, his parents had chosen which woman he was, and he simply didn't have to worry about anything, just accept it.

But now, whether he can find a woman who agrees with him all his life in the vast sea of people, Bai Xianghuan feels that it is really difficult.

In the end, he still didn't make a decision, and said quite unspeakably:

"Huanniang, can you talk to my mother and give me a little more time...... It won't be long, just half a year, within half a year, I'll find a woman I like, okay?"

Bai Chenghuan saw that he finally knew how risky it was to hand over all his marriage to others, so he no longer forced him:

"It's okay, as long as you are willing to worry about your life's affairs, my mother's side, I will try my best to help you delay. The elder brother just needs to remember how eager the mother wants to hold her grandson. I heard that Brother Tao on the other side of the Bai family's big house is five years old, and my brother will not know how his mother feels. ”

Bai Xianghuan naturally knew.

In addition to her hard temperament all her life, her mother did not deal with the people in the old house. Even if the younger sister has become the queen now, and the father is guarding one side, the glory of the Bai family's three rooms is extreme, and the heirs in the house are scarce, it is still the mother's consistent heart disease.

"Well, I made a note of it, mother's side, it's hard for you. Bai Xianghuan's heart was still a little confused, but he didn't forget to thank Bai Chenghuan.

Bai Chenghuan smiled with his eyebrows:

"Between you and my brother and sister, thank you or not, as long as you can get married as soon as possible and spread out for the Chengen Mansion, I will rest assured. ”

"You...... It's getting more and more like a mother!"

Seeing his sister, who had just shed her childishness for a few years, say such old-fashioned words, Bai Xianghuan couldn't help laughing.

The emperor stood not far away admiring the flowers, the brothers and sisters here were talking and laughing, and the people who looked at this side with concern from a distance showed a relieved expression.

As long as Shi Wanrou's incident today does not affect the mood of the emperor, it is unlikely that the emperor will pressure people to marry again at this spring banquet.

And Xu Chenglin, who was about to leave with Xu Chengle, quietly withdrew his eyes, turned his head and left, and the haze on his face never dissipated again.

That used to be his sister, too.

Until the end of the spring feast, everything was safe and stable, no one came out to make trouble, no one angered the emperor anymore, and the spring banquet finally ended peacefully.

On the men's side, the eldest son of the newly promoted Jinxiang Hou Wang family won the first prize and won the cloud-piercing jade bow that the emperor took out, while on the women's side, it was the lord of Rongyang in the clan who won Bai Chenghuan's dazzling pearlescent hairpin.

The lord of Rongyang is the sister of the king of Rongping County, sixteen years old, it is a good year, there has always been a name for a talented woman in the capital, and today's song "Flowing Years" piano song won the queen's hand-picked leader.

"Courtiers, thank you for the queen's favor!"

It seemed that he was very surprised that he could come out on top, and the county lord of Rongyang blushed and saluted Bai Chenghuan to thank him, looking flattered.

Zhu Zhenzhen, who also went on stage to stroke the piano today, did not get any praise, and couldn't help but feel a little angry:

"Mother, this "Flowing Years" piano song seems to have been the favorite of the former Empress Xiaoyuan...... What's so great about this, like who doesn't know how to play, it's just a trick!"

Mrs. Zhu hurriedly covered her mouth:

"Don't talk nonsense! this is a serious court song, she can play it, but you can't!"

Zhu Zhenzhen was stunned, and he had to suppress the unwillingness in his heart.

Indeed, even if she has the beauty and piano skills of the county lord of Rongyang, she does not have the identity of the royal county lord of others.

Bai Cheng looked at the young woman in front of him with a smile, and the slight wave in his heart because of the song "Flowing Years" had long since returned to calm.

She bowed her head slightly and praised:

"Although the things are appreciated by this palace, but this qin music is played by yourself, and this attainment, this palace is beyond the reach of you at your age. ”

After receiving such praise from the queen's mother, the county lord of Rongyang was even more shy, respectfully accepted the hundred flowers hairpin presented by Shaohui, walked to his brother's side, and couldn't help but boast to him in a proud whisper:

"Brother, you see, even the queen said that she was not as good as me back then!"

However, when he said that, the lord of Rongyang was a little puzzled:

"I heard that when the queen mother was sixteen years old, her madness and stupidity were not cured, at that time, could she play the piano?"

King Rongping reached out and knocked on his sister's head:

"Whether she used to be or not, now that she is the mother of a country, she can say in public that her piano skills are beyond your reach, what else do you want to do with this big face?"

The county lord of Rongyang thought about it, so he put aside this little doubt, and happily went to find the little sister to show off.

The smile on the face of King Rongping gradually faded.

She likes the piano song "Flowing Years" so much, then she will definitely play it, I don't know if there will be a chance to listen to it with her own ears in this life.

The birds and flowers in Jingchun Garden are fragrant, but the Zhongyi Bofu is completely overwhelmed by dark clouds.

In Zhongyibo's mansion, even the cats and dogs that were held by Shi Wanrou in the palm of her hand on weekdays and loved like treasures were carried by the back of the neck one by one and thrown out.

"What did I tell you before I went? Why did you have to go?! Why can't you just stay and cause trouble? Why are you going to marry a concubine, a concubine who used to be lowly at your first glance! What kind of sin have I done......

Zhang's hoarse voice cried in Shi Wanrou's boudoir, and Shi Wanrou watched her mother go crazy with a blank face.

Shi Wanrou didn't say anything on the way back, she didn't cry or make trouble, and she completely accepted her fate.

But when the next person came to report the arrival of the Duchess of Weiguo, Shi Wanrou still shrank imperceptibly.

"Madam, Miss, Auntie and Grandma are back...... It's coming this way!"

Zhang's crying also stopped abruptly, but it was completely different from Shi Wanrou's shrinkage, she was only stunned for a moment, and then she greeted her angrily.

The road in the Zhongyi Bo's mansion is very familiar to the Duchess of Weiguo, and even the embroidery building where Shi Wanrou lives now was her boudoir back then.

Ignoring her brother Zhongyibo chasing after her, Duchess Weiguo rushed into Shi Wanrou's boudoir with her footsteps.

What came out was the angry Zhang.

Zhang's anger was full of anger at his daughter who was like a wooden man, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and at this time, he saw Duchess Weiguo rushing in with a cold face, his brain was hot, and he stretched out his finger without thinking about it:

"Shi Yuzhen, you're embarrassed to come to our door! How did you teach your concubine? You let him humiliate your niece like this?!"

When the maid and servant woman on the side heard her wife's brainless accusation, she secretly screamed in her heart-

It's understandable that you're in a bad mood, but have you ever thought about it?

Can the Duchess of Weiguo be easily offended now?

Sure enough, I saw that Duchess Weiguo's cold face sank by three points, and without saying a word, she raised her hand and gave Zhang, who was already in a semi-crazy state, a slap!

"You have no way to teach your daughter, you are delusional, and you dare to blame me! Today I just came to ask you, how can you be worthy of being a Shi family wife?!"

Duchess Weiguo swept her long sleeves, brushed Zhang's who was covering her face and was completely stunned to the side, and walked in a few steps in front of Shi Wanrou, who was stunned in the boudoir, and slapped her backhand again!

"As the concubine of the Zhongyi Uncle's Mansion, you actually choose a lowly concubine! Shi Wanrou, your face is so worthless? That person will be willing to be cheap if you press you casually? If you can't bear it, don't make trouble, if you cause trouble, it will only drag down your family and make a bag, what's the matter?!"

At this time, not only was Zhang stunned, but Shi Wanrou couldn't react at all-

Her aunt, who had never played her with a fingernail, came to beat her so fiercely!

"Shi Yuzhen, why did you come to me? This is the Shi family, not your Xu family, you are a married daughter, what qualifications do you have to take care of our affairs!"

The crisp sound of the slap falling on her daughter's face finally woke up Zhang, she didn't care about the pain on her face, screamed, and was about to pounce and fight with Duchess Weiguo!

"It's up to me to be your good daughter's mother-in-law!"

Duchess Weiguo shook her off, pointed at Shi Wanrou, her eyebrows were upside down, and her sideburns jumped up:

"Let you choose a good family affair for her as soon as possible, what did you do? It's good now, go and provoke people who shouldn't be messed with, and then choose Xu Chengle to slap me in the face in the next life, and push your daughter into this situation, this is the good thing your Zhang family has done!"

Unlike Duchess Weiguo, who was originally born in a family of military generals, whether it is skill or strength, it is not the same level as Duchess Weiguo.

At this time, the maids and servants around them all watched the two sisters-in-law fight stupidly, and they didn't know who to help, so the Zhang family pounced with their teeth and claws, and they couldn't pull the corner of the Duchess of Weiguo's clothes.

was so angrily reprimanded by the Duchess of Weiguo, Zhang simply stopped beating, sat on the ground and began to cry again:

"Yes, it's me who is useless, my good daughter is not as good as a wild girl in your eyes! I hurt your face Shi Yuzhen, right? But it's not me who hurts your face, it's your good righteous daughter!

Listening to her keep mentioning Bai Chenghuan again, Duchess Weiguo's eyes burned red!

"Zhang's family! At this point, you still don't want to repent, you only know how to blame others? With a mother like you, no wonder Shi Wanrou has come this far! How are you worthy of being a mother?!"

Shi Wanrou, who watched her mother and aunt fight like never before, finally came back to her senses from her disbelief at this time, staggered forward and fell at the feet of Duchess Weiguo, tears couldn't help but fall:

"Auntie, it's me who is ignorant, it's that I don't measure myself, but aunt, you don't know that today, I went to the spring banquet, and when I saw the queen on top, I remembered Cousin Chenghuan......"

"Today is her death day, so I can't control my anger and do something wrong!Auntie, I know it's wrong, but I don't know what to do......"

Shi Wanrou cried like never before.

Zhongyi Bofu is not the Weiguo Mansion.

I didn't see which emperor didn't like the strength to simply unite with others to rebel.

She has done something wrong, who can bear everything for her without hesitation?

The future is already doomed, if she loses her aunt's protection again, what's the point of her choosing Xu Chengle?

Duchess Weiguo looked at the mother and daughter who were crying in front of her and behind her, and the red in her eyes gradually dimmed, but the opening in her heart really began to gurgle at this time.

That Cheng Huan, who is already on the top, is it true, and he no longer has any scruples about himself?

Although her son told her that the person who really forced Zhongyi Bofu into this situation was the emperor, not Bai Chenghuan, but in her heart, the moment she knew about it, blood gushed like a spring!

The footsteps of Zhongyibo outside the door finally sounded, followed by another footstep.

"Mother!"

Xu Chenglin didn't care that this was his cousin's boudoir, so he broke in, and when he saw his mother, who was still stubbornly standing in place and confronting the mother and daughter, he couldn't help but exclaim.

Zhongyibo looked at the mess and couldn't help but wipe his eyes.

He is useless, the reputation of Zhongyi Bofu for a hundred years has been ruined, and he has to smear his sister's face.

Duchess Weiguo looked up at Xu Chenglin at this time:

"What are you doing here?"

The mother is still so tough, obviously worried about her mother's family, but she wants to use such a violent way.

Xu Chenglin's throat rolled, and the worried words were swallowed back when they reached his mouth, and he bowed down to his mother:

"Your Majesty, I've come to the Guogong Mansion, please mother, come back quickly!"

In the Weiguo Mansion, Xiao Shaotang sat in the main hall and drank tea leisurely, admiring the colorful glow woven by the sunset outside the hall door.

In the side hall, after Xu Chengle and Xu Chengru saluted, they waited restlessly.

Xu Chengle had a completely different look of happiness in his eyes than before, and Xu Chengru, who rushed to hear the news, looked at this suddenly somewhat unfamiliar brother, with complicated eyes-

She never dared to think that this cousin, who had never been in the eyes of her mother-in-law, could marry her mother's niece!

"Chengle, you, how can you do this?" Xu Chengru accused in a low voice.

Even if the emperor decrees, this is too ridiculous, too, too hurtful to the face of the mother-in-law!

Xu Chengle smiled indifferently:

"Eldest sister, in this way, what's wrong? Uncle Zhongyi has been forced to that part, Shi Wanrou chooses me, it's better than choosing someone else—at least, for the sake of her mother-in-law's face, no one dares to treat her badly when she marries, doesn't it?"
