Chapter 173: Seeing Profit and Forgetting Righteousness

It was rumored in the front hall that the banquet could start, and Mrs. Chen was helped by the two daughters-in-law with a smile and slowly walked towards the front hall. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Chen Lirong raised her foot to follow, but Xiaoyu, the big girl next to her, pulled her, and she looked back at Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu hurriedly whispered in her ear: "Miss, my aunt called you to go to her place when you are free."

What is my aunt looking for her? Chen Lirong frowned slightly, looked at the team walking away in front of her, twisted her veil and turned around and walked towards Furong Courtyard.

The rules of Chenhou Mansion are extremely strict, as an aunt, you can't go to the front yard without a summons, and there is no chance for an aunt to appear at a banquet like today.

That's why Aunt Zhao sent her mother outside to see if there was a suitable candidate. This candidate doesn't need to be a high-ranking person, after all, the high-ranking family will not choose a concubine as a housewife, her idea is that people are good and promising, and they can handle it.

The daughter is fifteen years old and has not yet decided to marry, although the lady's daughter has not yet decided to marry, but the identity is different, the lady's daughter is a little later and a lot of people begg, her own daughter, alas, she was stupid at the beginning to crash in.

Aunt Zhao is actually the daughter of Mrs. Chen's cousin, although the relationship is a bit distant, but she usually moves around, and she will also send gifts to her house during the New Year's holidays.

Because of the Hou Mansion in her family, her father's business is also booming. She also went out for several maids like a big lady, which was very satisfying for her at that time.

If she hadn't been clamoring to follow her father into Beijing that time, she wouldn't have been dazzled by this prosperity.

Regardless of her father's opposition, she designed Hou Ye, she thought she could live this drunken life, who knows, alas!

Chen Lirong walked in and saw Aunt Zhao shaking her head and sighing, she glanced at Aunt Zhao with disgust, and said coldly: "What's the matter with me?"

Aunt Zhao immediately stood up when she heard this, and happily pulled Chen Lirong to sit down, "Rong'er, my mother told you..."

"How many times have you said it, don't forget the rules." Chen Lirong said impatiently.

Aunt Zhao's expression froze, and she smiled flatteringly, "The slave maid is not thoughtful, please forgive the second miss." ”

Chen Lirong waved her hand and turned her face aside, "Say, what's the matter?" ”

Aunt Zhao gave a look, and all the people in the house retreated.

Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, then reacted and pulled Xiaofeng and walked out.

Chen Lirong glanced at the door, a little puzzled in her heart, what is this going to say? Cast them out.

Aunt Zhao poured a cup of tea for Chen Lirong and gently placed it in front of her, "The slave sent Mother Zhao out to inquire about those sons and brothers who came today, and found a particularly good one, named Yang Jiarong." Although he is a poor student, he is a promising person, he won the second-class jinshi, and I heard that he is good friends with Tang Shizi in the eldest princess's mansion, and now they all live in the eldest princess's mansion. If you..."

Chen Lirong frowned when she heard this, she wanted to reprimand Aunt Zhao, but after thinking about it, she raised her eyes and glanced at her, "Since he can be friendly with the prince of the eldest princess's mansion, why do you think that if you let him marry me, he will have to marry me?" ”

"Although the slave has not been free all these years, he also has some connections, as long as he gives some silver and makes someone put some medicine into his wine, then he will naturally be responsible."

That's how Aunt Zhao made Hou Ye responsible back then. Although she didn't say it very clearly, Chen Lirong was already clear.

Her thoughts were racing, and when the second brother had just brought them in to pay homage to her birthday, she had also seen people, and they were just upright, and she really couldn't look down on them. If you can push people to Chen Lihe...

After thinking about it, she shook her head, listening to the meaning of her aunt's words, although he is a poor boy, he is very likely to be a promising person, if Chen Lihe marries him, with his father's help and Tang Shizi's friendship, he is very likely to be in a high position.

Aunt Zhao saw her daughter shaking her head and thought she was dissatisfied, so she sighed and said, "It would be good if that Bangyanlang didn't get married, Mother Zhao said that he was very gentle, and his literary talent was even more outstanding, but it was a pity that he was married, and he had already said it in front of the emperor." ”

Chen Lirong's eyes lit up when she heard this, this candidate is really good, if he retires from the previous relatives, then he is a villain who forgets his righteousness, and there will never be a chance of promotion, if he does not retreat, then Chen Lihe will become a concubine, she couldn't help laughing when she thought of this.

Aunt Zhao looked at her daughter and was confused.

After a while, Chen Lirong smiled and asked, "What connections do you have?" How to get in touch? ”

Aunt Zhao looked at her daughter in front of her in a daze, and she couldn't react, did she agree? I thought my daughter had figured it out, so I was busy and happily told her the connections she could use.

Chen Lirong walked out of the Furong Courtyard, smiling at the corner of her mouth, looking in a good mood.

Xiaoyu, who has been with her for many years, keeps speculating about what she just said, usually every time Miss comes over impatiently and then leaves after less than a cup of tea, everyone around her knows that the last thing Miss wants to see is Aunt Zhao.

It's amazing that he came out smiling this time and kept smiling all the time.

Xiaofeng followed Chen Lirong for a long time, she saw that Chen Lirong was in a good mood, and asked eagerly, "Is there anything happy about Miss?"

"Of course, if it happens, then Miss Ben will be happy for a lifetime." Chen Lirong didn't elaborate, only said this sentence and walked to the front hall with a smile.

The two maids glanced at each other and silently followed.

After Chen Lirong left, Aunt Zhao hurriedly called Zhao's mother and whispered: "You also go out to help, it's best not to alarm anyone."

"Auntie really plans to match the second young lady to a poor jinshi?" Mother Zhao asked cautiously.

"It's nothing to be poor, Mrs. won't deduct Rong'er's dowry, and I'll make up for it a little more, and life will always be good." Aunt Zhao replied softly.

Mother Zhao opened her mouth and saw the loneliness in Aunt Zhao's eyes, and finally walked out without saying anything.

Aunt Zhao looked at the back of Zhao's mother in the distance, she just remembered what happened before she arrived at the Hou Mansion, at that time, she was bright and moving, and she had the relatives of the Hou Mansion, and there was an endless stream of people who went to her house to propose marriage, and one of them lifted people.

He is upright and writes well, but his family is too poor, so she didn't take a fancy to him.

Some time ago, she received a letter from home, and heard that he had become a county guard.

It's not that you don't regret it, it's just that what's the use of regretting, you can only blame yourself for being young and ignorant.

Unconsciously, her face was slightly cold, she took out a handkerchief and wiped it gently, turned around and walked into the inner room.

Mother Zhao cautiously approached the banquet hall, and saw that Xiaoyu next to Miss was talking to Xiaoyu, she was a little drumming in her heart, Miss has made up her mind?

Thinking that since the aunt and the young lady have made up their minds, then she doesn't have to worry about it.
