Chapter 217: Refusal
Chen Shiying looked at Chen Afu as if he was facing a great enemy, extremely helpless, and said, "Dad is really planning for you, the girl's Shaohua is only a few years, if you miss it, it will be difficult to find." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info dad helped you see two good good offspring, you listen. If you don't like it, Dad will continue to help you see each other. ”
Chen Afu definitely wouldn't want the son-in-law that Chen Shiying chose for her, but she was also curious about what kind of two people he chose, so she didn't say anything.
Chen Shiying continued, "These two descendants have good conduct, and they were selected by their fathers. A descendant surnamed Zhou, the son of a staff member of his father, is sixteen years old this year, and he was selected for Xiucai at the age of fourteen. This child is good-looking, good academic, has a good temper, and knows the roots, but the disadvantage is that the family is low. Daddy will give you more dowry, and he and their family will be good to you. Fu'er is smart and smart, and she will definitely be able to live a small life in the future. Dad's favorite is the future of this Zhou family. Another descendant surnamed Li, is the grandson of Master Li, the Tongzhi of Dingzhou Mansion, who is fifteen years old this year, half a year younger than Fu'er. He also won the show, looks good, has a good family background, and is polite. If Fu'er wants to live comfortably in the future, the Zhou family will be better off in the future. If Fu'er wants to find someone with a good family background and a good-looking face, she will find a descendant of the Li family. However, if you are looking for a descendant of the Li family, it is best to let the Jiang family record you in her name. Dad had already discussed this matter with the Jiang family, and she agreed.
Listening to the conditions of these two people, Chen Afu felt that Chen Shiying was quite reliable, not only did he not want to use her to marry, but the people he was looking for had relatively low family backgrounds, and he was really planning for her. With such an embarrassing identity of her, only those who are looking for someone with a low family background, or someone who is promoting him, will sincerely accept her.
However, no matter how good a person is, she will not agree. Then he shook his head and said, "I still have a son, I don't want to marry, I want to recruit a son-in-law." ”
Chen Shiying persuaded, "As long as the person is good, why bother to insist on recruiting a son-in-law? As for Dabao, don't worry, your father will accompany you with more dowry, accompany Dabao with all the money he wants, and then let the descendants recognize Dabao as a righteous son." With your father as your backing, neither of the two families dares to give Dabao a bad feeling. ”
Chen Afu still shook his head in disagreement, and said, "Lord Chen doesn't need to think about me, the eldest girl in your mansion is not much younger than me, think more about her." ”
Chen Shiying's old face turned red, and his mother threw the face of the big girl in the house and the entire face of the Chen family to her grandmother's house.
He settled down and said, "Your sister is much younger than you, and my father has settled your affairs, so it's not too late to think about them." ”
Chen Afu still shook his head and said, "Thank you Lord Chen for your concern, I won't consider either of them." ”
Chen Shiying looked at Chen Afu's stubbornness with a pursed mouth, and said, "Fu'er is too willful......"
As he was talking, someone came to report, saying that Lord Chu's elder followed Chu Huai to see Lord Chen.
Chu Huai came in, hugged Chen Afu, and bowed to Chen Shiying and said, "My uncle heard that Lord Chen is coming, please go to Tangyuan to drink and talk." ”
Chen Shiying didn't want to see Chu Lingxuan, and when he saw him, he would think of the stupid things his mother had done. What's more, Chu Lingxuan is too big to be like this, although the two families are far apart, and it is not suitable for them to marry their own families. But the two of them are of the same grade, and if he wants to talk or invite himself to drink, he should come here in person to invite himself is the way to be hospitable. Moreover, he came to ease the relationship with his daughter, and he only talked for a while, and he didn't get along enough.
However, Chen Shiying has always shown kindness and tolerance, let alone Chu Lingxuan, a person he didn't want to offend. So he slandered in his heart, but there was no displeasure on his face. said with a smile, "This official also learned that Lord Chu was in Tangyuan just now, and he still wanted to visit him in the next morning." Since Lord Chu invited, I will say a few more words to Fu'er and go to Tangyuan. ”
Chu Huai hugged his fists again and went to wait for him outside the house.
Chen Shiying pointed to the two brocade boxes and said to Chen Afu, "That purple box is for your mother's head ......."
Chen Afu hurriedly refused, "Lord Chen, I have already accepted your 'heart' on behalf of my mother before, and you must not give her anything in the future." Last time I collected your money on behalf of my mother, my mother has been complaining about me, if I accept this face again, she will definitely not pay attention to me anymore. ”
Chen Shiying was stunned and said disappointedly, "Alas, your mother always complains about me, let's talk about it later...... If your mother doesn't want it, Fu'er will keep it. And that vermilion box, which was given to you by your father. ”
Chen Afu refused again, "Lord Chen, don't give me any more things, I have already accepted your 'heart' before." ”
Chen Shiying frowned and said, "Fu'er, you are my daughter, even if you don't call me dad in anger, your blood relatives can't change." People say that the elders give it, you can't resign, and your father gives you something, you can't refuse. ”
didn't wait for Chen Afu to speak again, so he raised his feet and walked out.
He walked out of the gate of Fuyuan, stood still and looked at the gate of Luyuan, and then turned around and walked towards Tangyuan. His steps were like a thousand pounds, he didn't want to see Chu Lingxuan at all, and he couldn't help complaining in his heart that Chu Lingxuan didn't understand human accidents.
At the beginning of February, his mother said that she dreamed of his father and wanted to go to Baoguo Temple in Beijing to light an everlasting lamp for his father, and Chen Shiying could not allow this reason. originally wanted the Jiang family to accompany her, but it happened that her son was sick, and the Jiang family couldn't leave. Of course, it didn't go as the old lady wanted, so she asked Tang and Chen Yuhui to accompany her, and only sent Aunt Green and many subordinates and nurses to accompany her. also let the old lady only live in Baoguo Temple for one day and one night, saying that she was afraid that she would encounter danger outside.
Who knew that it was such a coincidence, when Chen's mother went to Baoguo Temple, it happened that the second lady of Yong'an Hou's Mansion Li was also there, saying that it was for the deceased old lady to be fragrant and vegetarian for three days, and the courtyard where she lived was next door to Mrs. Chen.
Mother Chen knows the most is drilling, and when she hears about the Yong'an Hou Mansion, isn't that the family of Lord Chu Lingxuan? Lord Chu is young and promising, handsome, and from a family, and there is no one in Dingzhou Mansion who does not know him.
In the old lady's view, the Yong'an Hou Mansion is a family, a noble, a big family, and a princess, if you can have a good relationship with their mansion, it will be of great benefit to her son's career. Besides, she has been planning one thing, which is really falling asleep and having a pillow.
So, I posted it all at once. Chen's mother has a skill, that is, when she meets someone she wants to stammer, her attitude is very humble, and she will come casually when she says beautiful words.
What Chen's mother didn't know was that although the Li family was the second lady of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, she was from a low background and had small eyes, she was only the daughter of a six-rank official, and the man was crippled at home, and no one in the aristocratic circle in the capital loved her. It turned out that the Li family was in charge of the Chu Mansion, and she would come forward on major occasions, and people had to perfunctory her. Since Mrs. Chu returned to Beijing and took over Fuzhong Zhongfang, no one cares about her.
