Chapter 62: Li Fengyin
"Let's go back, shall we?" Sheng Weirao felt a headache when she saw Zhao Li, especially when she heard that he personally went to the Mizhen County Mansion to borrow a painting from Sheng Weiqiao two days ago, and regretted more and more that he shouldn't have talked too much and didn't cause trouble to his cousin.
Seeing him at this moment, he frowned secretly, and turned his head to Zang Wanzhou and said, "Don't disturb others." ”
They have been walking in the garden for a while, although Sheng Weirao has not liked to talk since the accident, but it is a lifelong event...... The main thing is that she thinks it doesn't matter if she marries or not, anyway, the Sheng family can't afford to support her, even if the Sheng family doesn't want to support her for a lifetime, the 50,000 taels of silver given by the Feng family back then are enough for her to eat and drink in this life, after all, she is not Sheng Weiqiao's pampering.
Even if she is old, there is the child she insisted on giving birth to earlier.
It's just that the rest of the Sheng family doesn't think so, especially Mrs. Ming.
What the old lady is most worried about at this time is her marriage, and even said in private, "If Rao'er doesn't marry well, I will be hard to see if I die."
This grandmother, who used to look at her, but now thinks about her wholeheartedly, Sheng Weirao really can't bear to live up to it, so she has to take it seriously in the matter of marriage...... At least let Mrs. Ming feel that she takes it seriously.
Therefore, after leaving the side hall, he took the initiative to ask Zang Wanzhou long and short questions, especially when he saw a secluded and uninhabited place, and implicitly pointed out that he had fallen into the hands of the bandits: "You have to think about it! Although my family has never admitted it, after all, it was a matter of a few years ago, once my family's opponent spreads, you will inevitably be laughed at! If I retreat at that time, not only will I not be able to suffer such a dumb loss, but my cousin-in-law, King Mizhen, will listen to my cousin the most, and my cousin will never see me being bullied like this!"
Zang Wanzhou said calmly: "County lord, I already know about this matter. Since I'm walking here with you today, I naturally won't mind. In fact, to tell the truth, I am not a very innocent person, and your family must have known about the matter of marrying a wife earlier! I had a discord with that woman, and I was lonely in the army for a long time, and there was no shortage of military prostitutes! Of course, men are different from women, but those of us who are used to being born and die have long seen these things. ”
He also said, "I also want to remind the county lord: I don't plan to leave the Northern Frontier Army, so if I become my wife, I may have to be a widow at any time, or even an orphan and widow depend on each other...... Of course, I know that if the county lord is my wife, even if I am gone, there will be the Sheng family and the Mizhen County Mansion to take care of me, and even arrange for you to remarry. Well, I don't have any opinion on my wife remarrying after my death, that is, my children, please don't change their stepfather's surname, after all, I don't have brothers and nephews, and the Zang family relies on me to inherit it. ”
When Sheng Weirao heard this, she thought of her eldest aunt: "Then what if I don't give birth to a male heir after I marry you?"
"Then pick one up. Zang Wanzhou said calmly, "I know the rules of your family, I don't like sons-in-law taking concubines, I expect you to treat the heirs under my name well after my accident, and naturally you won't do anything that makes you resentful." ”
Sheng Weirao couldn't tell if he was sincere or false, but she was very satisfied with the fact that this person might die in battle at any time: she didn't really want to get married, and she couldn't bear to brush off her grandmother's kindness and reluctantly do it.
If you become a widow in the future, keep the festival with confidence, and go back to Nanfeng County to live your own little life, won't you be happy and happy?
Thinking so, she also said, "Then let's explain it to the elders later." ”
This is to finalize the marriage.
In this way, Sheng Weirao wants to turn back at this time, and of course Zang Wanzhou is relying on her.
I didn't want Sheng Weirao to leave, but Zhao Li refused to let her go: Sheng Weirao turned around, and heard him hurriedly shouting behind him: "Fuchang County Lord, please stay, I have seen the painting borrowed by Mizhen's cousin in the past two days, and I have a new idea......
Hearing this, Zang Wanzhou raised her eyebrows, but before she could say anything, the green-shirted girl who was with Zhao Li stopped doing it, and said sharply: "What do you have to do with this county lord?!!!"
Sheng Weirao originally didn't plan to mix anything between Zhao Li and the green-shirted girl, but even when she heard the girl's random suspicions, she only frowned and sped up her pace of leaving.
Helpless Zhao Li, this waste, I don't know what he whispered to the girl, a moment later, Sheng Weirao and Zang Wanzhou have walked away for a long time, Sheng Weirao was about to explain to Zang Wanzhou what she knew about Zhao Li, but there were hurried footsteps behind her, followed by the voice of the girl in the green shirt: "Fuchang, you stop!"
Sheng Weirao's face sank, and when she turned her head, she saw that the girl had lifted her skirt and was running over in a hurry: she glanced at it in a hurry, but Sheng Weirao didn't look carefully.
When she came over at this time, she took a closer look, but saw that this girl was sixteen or seventeen years old, with a tender yellow hand-painted willow branch and wild duck skirt tied under the narrow sleeves of the green and embroidered jasmine flower, a gold box jewelry jasper belt, and a gold box folded silk peony flower jewelry silk flower jewelry silk ring, and a narrow crested head was hidden at the bottom of the skirt.
The face is long, the facial features are not outstanding, a little plain, but the face is white, at this time, the cheeks are lightly applied with fat powder, and the vermilion rouge is applied, which is the style of peach blossom makeup; the black hair on the head is curled with a bun, and the red gold half-moon moire jade is swayed; the chest is hung with a gold folded silk treasure cover pavilion pendant collar, and a pair of gold treasure inlaid jewelry bracelets are caged on the wrist, and the fingertips of the impatiens juice are wiped brightly and brightly, and pearls the size of rice grains are glued to the nail cover for decoration.
In addition to the jewels and strict clothes, there is an arrogance between the eyebrows, and at first glance it is pampered in the big family.
Sheng Weirao has been in Chang'an for many years, but because she rarely goes out on weekdays, even if she goes out, she probably follows her cousin Sheng Weiqiao, and she doesn't know much about the nobles in Chang'an.
In fact, most of her explanation was for Zang Wanzhou next to her, it is rare to have such a candidate who does not live long...... Oh no, it's the right person, Sheng Weirao is impatient to toss around, naturally she doesn't want to blow it because of a little thing.
"I didn't know it before, but I can know it now!" The green-shirted girl crossed her waist with one hand and stroked her chin with the other, looking at her thoughtfully, this look was full of trouble, she didn't want Sheng Weirao's voice to fall, she "fluttered" and laughed, and said with a smile, "My name is Li Fengyin, and I am the sister of your cousin, the eldest cousin of Princess Mizhen County." ”
Sheng Weirao was a little surprised when she saw this situation, because she didn't know if she came to meet her, or if she had ulterior motives, and she just didn't have a seizure for the time being...... After all, this person's attitude was too different from Fang Cai's attitude when he suspected that he had anything to do with Zhao Li.
But since the other party mentioned that the relationship between the two parties is a turning relative, for Sheng Weiqiao's consideration, Sheng Weirao could not say that Heng Mei was cold, so she smiled apologetically and said: "It turned out to be Miss Li......! I don't know why Miss Li stopped me?"
Li Fengyin was about to speak, but at this time, Zhao Li caught up from behind panting, and grabbed her: "Look at your eyes, don't you see that the county lord of Fuchang is talking to this son?
and confessed to Sheng Weirao, "Don't worry about her, the county lord is spoiled by my sister-in-law." ”
"You're embarrassed to say you!" Li Fengyin broke away from his hand dissatisfied, but hesitated, didn't say anything, pouted and walked with him, just walked a few steps and turned back, waving to Sheng Weirao, "County Lord, I'm going to play with you another day!"
After Sheng Weirao saw the two of them leave, she retracted her gaze a little speechlessly, and said in her heart What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?
But when she turned her head and saw Zang Wanzhou in front of her, she didn't bother to care about Zhao Li and Li Fengyin, and said, "Do you want to go a little longer, or go back to the table?"
…… At this time, in the main hall, Rong Sleeping Crane had just returned to the table, Sheng Weiqiao scooped him a bowl of hot soup that was brought up, and said: "After eating too much of this palace banquet, it is really not as delicious as the food at our own home." Most of the dishes that came up were already cold, even if it wasn't cold at this time, it would be unappetizing, and this stewed wild duck soup was still a little hot. ”
Rong Sleeping Crane took it with a smile and said, "Do you want to eat hot food?" This is simple, tell them to bring it down, and change the heat to come up...... Well, the soup served by the good girl herself is really delicious. ”
Sheng Weiqiao held his cheek with one hand, watched him finish the soup, and ate two spoonfuls of shark fin before asking, "Where did you just go?"
"Good girl, I just praised you, can't you give your sleeping brother some face, don't you be jealous so soon?" Rong Sleeping Crane glanced at her when he heard this, and wanted to smile or not, "How long has your sleeping brother been gone, and you are suspicious?"
However, seeing Sheng Weiqiao's dangerous squint, he immediately replied obediently, "The Empress Dowager just summoned us to the back to talk about Zhao'an, and it was finally settled." ”
"What do you say?" Sheng Weiqiao was a little surprised, "This matter has been delayed from last year to this year, I thought it would drag on for a long time, don't you want it to be decided at this time?"
Rong Sleepy Crane smiled and said: "How long will it last, then the Queen Mother and His Majesty will last forever!"
He added, "It's just that it's officially decided now, and in fact, the manpower of both sides has already been scattered to the seven seas." At most, it's a formal name...... Otherwise, it would not have been delayed until now. ”
When Sheng Weiqiao heard this, he said: "Then Gongsun Sea Lord can they confer officials? Ying Dun can't be a little servant for you, right?"
Rong Sleepy Crane said: "Look at himself, if he still wants to follow me, I will arrange a subordinate official of the county king's mansion for him at this time." This kid doesn't learn and has no skills, and he can't take charge of it alone, and if he is released, neither I nor my eldest brother will be at ease. ”
Speaking of this, he sighed a little emotionally, "Speaking of which, being a good girl is a good fate, and even the people around him are stained! You said that kid went to Ningweihou's Mansion a few days ago to see Ying Jiang, and after coming back, he muttered something in private? He said that Ying Jiang followed you, and he became the head of the township within a few days of coming to Chang'an, and now he is even the county lord; he followed me, and he is still a servant, not to mention, it is his father, and my eldest brother has not yet implemented his official status!"
"Then what did you tell him after you knew it?" Sheng Weiqiao asked curiously, "Could it be that you beat him up directly?"
Rong Sleeping Crane said: "Am I that kind of person? Well, I just looked at him deeply and didn't say anything...... This kid has seen each other in the past two days like a mouse and a cat, God knows what is in his heart?"
Sheng Weiqiao smiled when he heard this, and said, "You can't be an uncle, how can you bully your nephew like this?" You see, I never bullied Ying Jiang!"
Rong Sleeping Crane was about to speak, but at this time, a palace maid came over next to him, bent down and whispered: "King Jun, the prince of Gaomi wants to invite you over and say a few words!"
