Chapter 174: Children's Affairs
On the day of the meeting, Xu and Zhu came as promised, and Cheng wore a plain dress with exquisite workmanship, elegant and rude, and invited the two people to serve tea in the flower hall. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
As soon as the three of them looked at each other, they first talked about the marriage of Jiang Cheng and Jiang family, and then turned to the matter of Gu Chuyu's friendship with Yu Xiaoling.
“…… The two children have a tight fate, and their faces are glued together several times, and they are inseparable. Xu said with a smile.
Hearing that Xu mentioned Gu Chuyu, Cheng's heart jumped twice quickly, and he really wanted to mention the matter of his children. Cheng is not stupid, he has inquired about the Gu family in the past few days, and learned that Mrs. Gu has a son and a daughter under her knees, and the daughter is the county lord of Nalanqiao, and she is the most favored by the eldest princess.
The more she inquired clearly, the more she couldn't believe that the Xu family had taken a fancy to Yu Ji, the girl of the Gu family was more expensive than the young master, and it was very possible for her to enter the palace at the age of the county lord of Lanqiao.
But when the Xu family came to Cheng's eyes, she couldn't believe it anymore, and secretly thought that the Xu family might really take a fancy to her son's appearance and virtue, after all, her son has always been her pride.
Therefore, Cheng was not stage frightened, and said according to Xu's words: "Exactly, I don't know where the blessings of our family Ling'er came from, and they fell in love with the county lord like this." ”
"Yo, that's good, there is a way to meet thousands of miles away, the second girl of your mansion and our county lord have this fate, maybe, there is a deeper fate behind!" Zhu said the two of them.
The two of them instantly understood that this was the time to say serious things, so one held his breath and condensed, and the other opened his mouth and said: "The second girl of your mansion should be married at the age of tomorrow, right, I don't know if I have decided on family affairs?"
Cheng's eyes froze when he heard this, and then he blinked blankly, looked at Xu, and saw that her eyes did not show a trace of hesitation, waiting for her reply, and thousands of doubts in his heart instantly passed by.
"It was never decided. She replied cautiously.
Xu smiled, with the meaning of "it must be so" at the corner of her mouth, and then she took a deep breath and said word by word: "The two of us came here this time to raise love for our little nephew Xu Pan. ”
Cheng was completely stupid, how could all this be completely different from what she thought? Didn't the Gu family take a fancy to her eldest son, why did they open their mouths to mention their relatives Ling'er? Or was it for Mrs. Gu's nephew?
Who is her nephew Xu Pan? Cheng was in a trance for a while, and when he saw the smiling face of Mrs. Xu San in a blink of an eye, suddenly the Lingtai was clear for a while.
Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Xu's nephew, Xu Pan, is now the loyal and diligent uncle!
Cheng has never met Xu Pan, but he often hears his children mention him, they always have a respectful and close attitude when they talk about him, especially the youngest son, who loves him very much, and has to talk about it from time to time.
She felt that this little uncle, who was less than the age of the weak crown, inherited the heroic and calm of the uncles of the Zhongqin Uncle's Mansion for a long time, and had no parents at a young age, and he could still pick up the burden of the Zhongqin Uncle's Mansion, and he was repeatedly praised by today, which was really not easy. It can be said that in Cheng's heart, he doesn't think that this loyal and diligent uncle is still a teenager.
However, this does not mean that she wants to hold the girl in the palm of her hand and marry this loyal and diligent uncle!
Cheng felt that a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, what kind of family is that Zhongqinbo Mansion, under the glory of the family are generations of generals who have died on the battlefield, and one after another widowed to death.
Let's ask such a family, how dare she marry her daughter?!
"This ...... This...... The little girl really can't climb it!" Thinking of the bleak and cold under the light of Zhongqin Bofu, Cheng's face turned pale with fright, and he waved his hand again and again.
Xu immediately frowned. The so-called head up to marry a daughter, bow down to marry a daughter-in-law, the woman's family has a posture of wanting to catch the old and indulge, which is also a common thing, generally speaking, a meeting can be decided on the family affairs, in the capital's high-ranking households, it is not common.
Xu was ready to have a low profile, but at this time, when her words came out of her mouth, what she got was Cheng's frightened and immediate refusal, which was not a gesture of wanting to refuse and welcome.
Why? Is it true that the Cheng family looks down on them like this?
It stands to reason that even if the Cheng family is unwilling to have such a marriage, they should find a high-sounding excuse and reject the people of the Xu family, but this matter is too urgent, and Cheng's mind is full of rumors that people from the Zhongqin Bofu died on the battlefield, and their hearts are anxious, and their attitude will inevitably be uncontrollable.
Xu's brows were furrowed as if he could trap mosquitoes, and just as he wanted to say something, he heard Zhu suddenly say coldly: "What's the matter? Mrs. Yu can't look down on the lintel of the Xu family?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the flower hall instantly condensed, Cheng's eyes instantly widened, his brows jumped, his mind was a little sober, and he hurriedly said: "Where, where?! The door of Zhongqinbo's Mansion is too high, and it is really a little girl who can't climb it! The two ladies are about to stop laughing!"
The way she looked still stabbed Xu's eyes, coupled with Zhu's questioning, Xu's heart ached faintly. She knew what the Cheng family was afraid of, wasn't she afraid that the sons of the Zhongqin Bofu would go to war?
Comparing her heart to her heart, she didn't mention early that she wanted her daughter to marry her eldest nephew, isn't that the reason? Although she was angry at Cheng's ignorance, she also understood Cheng's beloved daughter's thoughts.
For a while, Xu's eyes were entangled.
However, before she could think about what to do next, she heard Zhu snort coldly: "Mrs. Yu is really funny, I am with our aunt and grandmother, but I am passing by to propose marriage for our uncle, how can I be a joke?
Zhu Shi finished speaking, and stood up as soon as he slapped the table, with an angry look on his face, and the cold sweat on Cheng's forehead broke out.
She's ...... Cheng was a little scared for a while, but when she thought of her daughter's second half of her life, she was ruthless.
She swallowed and spit, and also made an angry look, and said: "Mrs. Xu's posture is no longer the appearance of sincerity to come to the door to ask for marriage! The little lady is really not worthy of the uncle of your mansion, and I ask the two ladies to choose another good wife for the uncle!"
After Cheng finished speaking, he also got up, turned his head, and looked like a send-off.
Where did Xu Shi think that this was only a few breaths of effort, and Zhu Cheng and the two of them actually talked about it, and they had the potential to tear their faces. Xu's face tightened, thinking that Xu Pan solemnly came over and begged her to make this matter happen, she felt that one head and two were big.
She forced herself to settle down, and hurriedly said, "Oh, why did you make a fuss while talking, this is really ...... Brother and sister! Why do you talk to Mrs. Yu like that?! Why don't you apologize to Mrs. Yu quickly! What can't you say and sit down and talk about it?!"
Xu pulled Zhu and opened his mouth to yell at her.
