Chapter 190: The Reason for the Relationship
In late August, the marriage of Jiuniang Zheng Qian and Xiangdong Wang Xiaozhang was abandoned because of the combination of Qin Tianjian and the clash of fate.
At the beginning of September, Xu Guifei chose the eldest daughter of Yu Qiong as the concubine for Xiao Zhang, the king of Xiangdong.
Yu Qiong, who is engaged in the history of Jingzhou's don't drive in the middle of the reign, and her eldest daughter, who is sixteen years old, is the eldest lady of Yu who went to the Yu Mansion to participate in the banquet when Zheng Sui was in Jingzhou.
On the afternoon of this day, Zheng Sui played chess with Jiuniang Zheng Qian in Jiuniang Zheng Qian's house.
"Sister, you're distracted again. Zheng Sui looked at Zheng Qian's delay and couldn't help but remind.
Zheng Qian shook her senses, let out a light sigh, a trace of embarrassment flashed on her face, but she hurriedly fell down.
Looking at the position of Zheng Qian's falling son, Zheng Sui suddenly stroked his forehead, threw the chess pieces in his hand, and messed up the black and white pieces on the chessboard with one hand, "No more." β
"Hee-hee. Zheng Qian opened her mouth and whispered, looking sorry.
Seeing this, Cai Fu hurriedly poured a bowl of tea and handed it to Zheng Qian, "I've been sitting for so long, Xiao Niang first drink saliva to moisten her throat." Then, he handed another bowl to Zheng Sui.
Zheng Sui sat up, stretched out his hand to take it, and took a sip, although she has been in Nandi for almost a year, she usually doesn't drink boiled tea, but last time she lived in Qingfeng for a while, she liked the tea boiled by the Wang Mountain Spring behind the courtyard, and she liked the crisp taste, and later after returning to the house, every day in the house would send someone to bring two buckets of water back and make tea for her.
Therefore, when I came back, I drank less buttermilk and drank tea most of the time.
Zheng Sui drank half a bowl, and still handed the tea bowl to Cai Fu, "Sister and I are talking in the house." Go out first, and you don't have to wait in the house, for I will call you if there is something. β
Listen to it. Hurriedly answered yes.
Zheng Qian's eyebrows moved slightly, but she didn't say anything.
There was a sound of beaded curtains shaking, and after a few moments, the maidservants all went out.
"Sister, are you still worried about the marriage?"
Zheng Qian glanced up at Zheng Sui, although she didn't respond directly, a bitter smile appeared on her face, "My heart." Hee Hee knows best. β
Zheng Sui's face froze, "......"
I heard Zheng Qian sigh again: "In the end, the world still cares." After speaking, he lowered his head again. Moth's eyebrows frowned, and his sorrow was hidden in the middle.
"Sister, you know, Yuan Liulang is in our house now, since half a month ago. The marriage between Sister A and the King of Xiangdong was abandoned. And he came, and he lived in our house all these days. β
Sure enough, as soon as she finished saying this, Zheng Qian looked up at Zheng Sui, her face full of surprise, but after being surprised, she shook her head again, "Xixi didn't say it all." He could not be the Lord again, and he came to our house. And ...... with me again What do I have to do with it. Speaking of the back, her face was slightly red, she and Yuan Xun had only met twice, and they were not impressed, now when she heard Zheng Sui mention such a person, she couldn't remember the person's appearance, but she remembered those eyes, and her eyes were a little blurry in amazement.
Zheng Sui looked at Zheng Qian, who bowed her head slightly in front of her, even if Zheng Qianru said, she knew Zheng Qian's mood best, and it was precisely because she knew that she understood what Zheng Qian's recent loss of mind and sorrow was for, not related to Yuan Xun, and it would not have anything to do with Xiao Zhang, the king of Xiangdong, but just because of her name of punishment, the marriage was abandoned.
"It's irrelevant. Zheng Sui echoed softly, but lowered his head and asked, "Sister still remember what Yuan Liulang looks like?"
Zheng Qian was slightly startled, looked up at Zheng Sui, and didn't understand why Zheng Sui suddenly asked like this, but she still answered truthfully, shook her head and said, "I don't remember." β
"He's living in the guest house now, or I'll take my sister over there to take a look. β
"Xixi," Zheng Qian hurriedly called, it was very rare, and there was a bit of disapproval in her voice, "How can there be such a thing, be careful I sue SΓΉ Gorou, let Goro discipline you well." β
"Brother won't discipline me for this. Zheng Sui smiled and said: "Now because it is still in the filial piety period, the family can't hold a banquet, and you can't go out to attend the banquet, otherwise, Sister A will definitely let the fourth lady go out on a blind date." "It's just that Rao is like this, Zheng Jun often invites some unmarried young men to come to the house for gatherings, Zheng Sui and Zheng Qian are hiding in the small dark room on the side of the middle hall, and they have seen it several times, and each time it is still instructed by the fourth lady.
just looked at Zheng Qian and shook her head, "Sister-in-law took us there, it's different from us going by ourselves." β
"That's just as well. Zheng Sui saw that Zheng Qian didn't seem to have any interest in Yuan Liulang, and she wouldn't tease Zheng Qian anymore, after all, her mention was based on Zheng Qian's good impression of Yuan Liulang, since she didn't, she didn't need to bother.
Speaking of which, Yuan Liulang has a good family background, and he likes Jiuniang Zheng Qian.
Suddenly, I heard Jiuniang Zheng Qian say: "Xixi, do you think it's okay if I am a female layman at home?"
"Of course not. When Zheng Sui heard this, he suddenly regretted it, when he went to live in the other courtyard of Qingfeng Temple, he shouldn't have taken Jiuniang to visit the temple, "Brother won't allow it." β
Saying that, Zheng Sui stretched out his hand to hold Zheng Qian's hand and comforted: "Sister, don't think nonsense, when the filial piety period passes in March next year, Brother will definitely find you a family affair, and there will be no more accidents this time, it was just a coincidence, we don't believe it." Zheng Sui was worried, and Zheng Qian fell into his own thinking again.
Seeing the worry in Zheng Sui's eyes, Zheng Qian shook his head hurriedly and smiled reluctantly, "Xixi, don't worry, I'm fine." β
It's just that the more she says this, the more Zheng Sui can't believe it, but fortunately, now that she is idle in the boudoir, Zheng Sui will come to Jiuniang to sit here every day and talk to her.
Just then, Arrow came over.
Cai Fu, who was guarding the door, did not stop Aluo, but just made a loud announcement.
As soon as he came in, he asked, "Sister, what are you talking about, why aren't you even in the house?"
"Just gossip. Zheng Sui said casually, stretched out his hand and pulled Aluo to his side, "Look at your sweaty body, where did you just come from?"
"I went to Jinhuaxuan and came back from my sister-in-law. After Ah Luo finished speaking, he complained in a low voice: "There are many more people in the house. β
"You don't need to receive people who come, there are brothers and sisters-in-law who receive them, what the hell do you care. Zheng Sui touched A Luo's shoulder, since the fifth brother Zheng Wei returned to Jiankang, more people have come to the house, and since the fifth brother entered Jiankang, in less than half a month, he has already made Xie Shangshu a scholar of Shangshufu.
If it weren't for the filial piety period, I was afraid that there would be more people visiting the fifth brother Zheng Wei in Shangfu.
With the fifth brother Zheng Wei here, it is destined to be prosperous.
I heard Zheng Sui ask again: "You just came back from the front yard, do you know if Brother Ah has come back?"
Ah Luo is the elder brother in Zheng Sui's mouth, referring to Goro, "Not yet, the fourth brother is busy outside, but when I came in, I heard that Huan Saburo was coming." β
Huanyu?
Zheng Sui was a little surprised when he heard it, because Yan Tong replaced Zhao and established the Wei State, and the Hebei region has been extremely unstable recently, so it is said that at this time, he will not leave the front line in Xuzhou.
Speaking of which, the fifth brother Zheng Wei returned to Jiankang from Xuzhou, and Huan Yu sent someone to escort him all the way.
Since the fifth brother Zheng Wei came back, Zheng Sui was still able to receive a copy of the letterhead, but they were all sent to her yard by the servants, and Wen Weng never entered her yard again, so this night, when Zheng Sui went to the study of the fifth brother Zheng Wei, he asked about it.
When Zheng Wei heard Zheng Wei ask, he felt very surprised, "Why did you suddenly ask him?" Because recently, Zheng Wei wanted to draw a panorama of Jiankang to Pingcheng's uncle Cui Yan, so he often asked Zheng Sui to come to the study to help.
"It's just that I read the Di newspaper and think that the front line in Xuzhou is unstable, and he, as the main general, shouldn't come back at this time. β
Zheng Wei looked at Zheng Sui deeply, but he looked at Zheng Sui with a calm face, and had no other meaning, so he said: "He went back to Jiankang this time to get engaged." β
Zheng Sui sighed lightly and said with a smile: "He is already twenty-five years old, and it is time to get married in a hurry." "If it's because of this, it's very understandable.
Zheng Wei looked at Zheng Sui's tone very casually, and suddenly felt that he was too careful, and his heart was suddenly relieved, "General Huan came back this time, and the object of engagement is Wang Zhonglang's young daughter. β
Wang Zhonglang is Wang Zhongshu's fifth brother Wang Fang, and he is an official who is engaged in Zhonglang General.
"It's the Jiuniang of the Wang family. "In February, Zheng Sui seemed to have seen the Wang family's flower god meeting, and the reason why she was impressed was that her handwriting was not only very good, but also fast, and she had been transcribing the poems that everyone was with her, but her appearance was mediocre.
Zheng Wei nodded, this family business, someone mentioned it a few years ago, but Huan Yu had seen Wang Jiuniang once, but he was unwilling from time to time, General Huan was still there at that time, and now the reason why he agrees is that he is afraid that it is more of a consideration of interests, and now, Huan Yu is eager to get rid of Xie Shangshu's suppression.
When he was in Xiangguo, in order to refuse Emperor Wende's proposal, he casually said that Zheng Sui had promised to General Nan Chuhuan, but since he came back, he has never mentioned it to Zheng Sui. β
"Aung has already told me about this. Zheng Sui shook her head, although the fifth brother has returned safely now, she also knows that she will still have to go back to Xingyang and the north when the time comes.
With the increase of age, family affairs are no longer a distant topic, and have begun to be put on the agenda day by day, thinking of this, Zheng Sui is somewhat sullen in his heart, the marriage of Jiuniang and Eleven Niang, maybe there is still some choice, and she has almost nothing.
It's like a few years ago, I didn't understand why Cousin Shilin came to Xingyang and why Aya was so angry, but now, it is easy to figure out that when my grandmother took her and the fifth brother to Pingcheng, the two families had already agreed, either the fifth brother married Cousin Shirou, or she married Cousin Shiqiao, so after Cousin Shirou and Cousin Shiqiao got engaged to another marriage, they broke the verbal covenant, and Aya was so angry.
In the same way, my grandfather and uncle hurriedly sent their brothers and sisters back to Xingyang, firstly because of this matter, and on the other hand, it was to let their brothers and sisters avoid marrying with the Xianbei nobles in the north, which was even more unacceptable to Aye.
