Chapter 253
Everyone had lunch, and Mrs. Tang and Min Li went to rest by themselves, and they also deliberately asked Huaizhen and Zhang Zhen to get along with each other in private.
Because Xiao Tang really didn't come back at noon, Zhang Zhen ate comfortably, and couldn't hide his joy, not to mention how long he hadn't been with Huai Zhen, at this moment, his heart was happy, and he was smiling.
When Rong Lan saw it, she covered her mouth and smiled, and said to Huaizhen: "Look at your brother, how old is you, you are still so reckless, because Lord Tang is not at home, if you are at home, how rude it should be?"
When Zhang Zhen heard this, she turned around and said seriously: "Sister's words are wrong, if the third master is at home, I wouldn't be like this." ”
Rong Lan laughed more and more, and said, "You actually know it yourself?"
Zhang Zhen just laughed, and didn't care, only said: "I grew up with Huaizhen as a child, she doesn't mind it, and my sister won't blame me...... It's the third master alone, I'm the last thing I can see......" When Zhang Zhen heard Xiao Tang, she couldn't help but look left and right, as if she was afraid that Xiao Tang would suddenly appear.
Rong Lan nodded and sighed: "The little ghost is afraid of Zhong Kuiye." Suddenly, he smiled again and said, "I lost my words, don't mind my sister." ”
Huaizhen smiled: "Sister, don't be like this, just like my brother said, we grew up together, and I treat him as my brother and sister-in-law as if you were my sister-in-law." ”
Zhang Zhen couldn't wait, so she said, "Sister, tell me quickly, is there anything you want me to do?"
Huai Zhencai asked: "Before, I only heard that your family has a few shops in the capital, and I don't know what you do for a living?"
Zhang Zhen said: "Some are clothing, but there are also ready-to-wear and embroidery...... There are spices and so on, but it's not a big shop, and my sister asks what this is for?"
When Huaizhen heard that there was a spice shop, he was happy in his heart, so he said: "Is there a lotus sachet in the shop before that?"
Zhang Zhen shook his head and said: "This has never been there, this recipe is unique to Baixiang Pavilion, and other shops have also tried to adjust it, but it is difficult to succeed, and then it will be successful after all, but people only recognize it made by Baixiang Pavilion, so they can't do it...... My sister wants to go back and buy a few for you. ”
Huai Zhen said: "I don't want that ......"
When Rong Lan heard this, she said, "It's also strange to say, although the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion also had various scent sachets before, there has never been any one that has been sold like this lotus sachet...... My sister asked this, could it be for her own sake?"
Huaizhen lowered his head and smiled, not going into detail about all kinds of details, but said, "That recipe...... Actually, I wrote it. ”
Rong Lan and Zhang Zhen were shocked, Zhang Zhen was stunned, clapped her hands and smiled: "I'll just say it! Where did the weird sachet come from, it is so popular, it turned out to be my sister's handwriting, I believe it!"
Rong Lan asked: "It turned out to be my sister's prescription, it's really rare, I don't know...... Why did you ask about your brother's shop? Could it be that my sister has other plans?"
Huaizhen saw that Rong Lan was really careful, so he nodded slightly and said, "I have two ideas, but I don't know if it ......will work out."
Zhang Zhen was still stunned and didn't understand, but after listening to her two questions and answers, she came back to her senses and hurriedly said, "What do you have your sister's idea?" ”
Rong Lan smiled and said: "When does your temper change, you are always shocked, and you can't wait for a moment if you want to be busy, and ask your sister to speak slowly." ”
Zhang Zhen just laughed, Huaizhen saw that the two of them were attentive to listen, so she thought about it, and finally told them what she had planned in her heart in the past few days.
Not to mention that Huaizhen and Zhang Zhen discussed serious matters with the two husbands and wives, but at the same time, in the Ying Gongfu, he heard someone say: "It doesn't matter what kind of family he is...... If my sister doesn't like it, you don't have to agree, and your father-in-law won't force you to marry!"
It was Wang Huanxi who spoke, only to hear Huanxi finish speaking, Huansha, who was sitting opposite, hurriedly stood up, walked to her and covered her mouth, and said, "You are going to die!
Wang Huanxi pushed her hand away and said, "What is my sister afraid of? Could I be wrong? Marriage is naturally not child's ......play."
Huansha walked to the door, saw that the maids were all sent away, and then came back, shook his head and said: "You are too anxious, I have to think about it, this Cheng family is a noble family in Beijing, and its reputation is excellent, although Cheng Gongzi once married Miss Yingfu, but his father-in-law also said to himself, this is not Cheng Gongzi's fault, and now Miss Narui has also been removed from the clan? It can be seen that it is her fault...... And I also heard that Cheng Gongzi's character is good. ”
It turned out that since Ying Pei got married, a few days later, Li Xianshu suddenly called Wang Huansha, and after a few gossips, she talked about her life.
It's just that Wang Huansha is not young, why did she go to Beijing as soon as she came, and secondly, after all, she is the daughter of a criminal minister...... Although Ying Lanfeng is recognized as a righteous daughter at this moment, this time is different from the past, but for a while, he still can't find a suitable person.
Who knew that on the day of Ying Pei's marriage, Ying Pei was drunk, and everyone helped him back to the cave room, among which Tang Shao Chunhui and others accompanied him, including the son of the Cheng family.
Although the Cheng family almost had a stalemate with the Ying Mansion because of Ying Rui, it was because of Xiao Tang's ...... actually eliminated a catastrophe invisibly, and the two families turned their rivalry into jade silk again. And because Cheng Gongzi and Ying Pei were colleagues, they were also present that day.
It happened that Wang Huansha was sympathetic to Li Xianshu's tiredness, so she told her to rest, came out to check by herself, stood on the door of the corner, and looked out, so she showed the Cheng family's son.
Cheng Gongzi fell in love at first sight, at first he didn't know who Wang Huansha was, but later he knocked on the side of Pei, and only then did he know that he was the eldest daughter of Wang Kexun in Beijing.
Ying Pei is naturally not stupid, seeing that he asked several times, as if it was an intentional appearance, because of the question, the son of the Cheng family admitted it calmly, and said that he didn't care about anything else, but he didn't know if there was still this blessing...... It's just a marriage with the Ying Mansion.
Ying Pei knew the news and didn't dare to penetrate it first, so he only came to Li Xianshu, and told Li Xianshu in private.
When Li Xianshu heard this, she was surprised, and she took the time to explain the matter to Ying Lanfeng.
Ying Lanfeng didn't expect that because of a glance, the son of the Cheng family would fall in love with Wang Huansha, just because Cheng Gongzi has a gentle temperament, a gentle character, and a very good background, it was Ying Rui who delayed the family before, although he dragged Xiao Tang to settle the dispute between the two families, but Ying Lanfeng always felt a little indebted to the Cheng family in his heart.
Now that he recognizes Wang Huansha as a righteous daughter, Wang Huansha is not like those light daughters, but a dignified and dignified one, and it is indeed a good match for Cheng Gongzi.
Therefore, Ying Lanfeng thought about it, and only felt that a good couple was natural, and that was the case...... However, although he was happy to agree to this matter in his heart, after all, this is a girl's lifelong event, not to mention that Wang Huansha is a righteous daughter, but she must not be wronged.
As soon as Ying Lanfeng thought of this, she was not in a hurry to give her a decision, so she only asked Li Xianshu to ask Wang Huansha in private about what she meant.
Let's say that after Li Xianshu asked this, Wang Huansha was silent for a long time.
Li Xianshu looked at her expression, and couldn't see what it meant, because she thought about it, she only told the Cheng family's family history one by one, and praised Cheng Gongzi's characters, and finally said: "Although I said that I was married to the house before...... I divorced again, but this matter is really not the fault of others, when I decided to do this family affair before, I was also serious, and I chose his family after a thousand choices......"
When Wang Huansha saw that she praised the Cheng family, she just hung her head and asked in a low voice, "I don't know...... What does the father-in-law mean?"
Li Xianshu smiled: "Your father also likes it, and once said that Cheng Gongzi is really a good match for you, it is a match made in heaven...... He just doesn't know what you mean, so he doesn't dare to decide, just asks what you think. ”
Wang Huansha was speechless for a long time, and Li Xianshu was inconvenient to urge, so she only smiled and said, "You just think about it again, it's okay." ”
Wang Huansha said "yes", and then turned around and told her sister about it.
At this moment, Wang Huanxi saw her muttering about how good the son of the Cheng family was, so he sneered: "Sister, why do you want to say this? At this moment, when you say that he is so good, why do you want to tell me, but you want to tell yourself, if you really like that person, why do you have to say it all over again, I am afraid that I will be too happy to say it, and I will already promise my stepmother." ”
Wang Huansha was shocked when she heard this, but she felt that what she said was really reasonable, and Huansha was slightly distracted, and after a while, she smiled bitterly.
When Huanxi saw her like this, she walked up to her, sat next to her, and said, "I saw my sister coming recently...... Sometimes God is not guarded, and sometimes he laughs stupidly when he looks at the shadow of the lamp, as if he is ...... It's the appearance of someone in her heart, does my sister have someone in her heart?"
Wang Huansha was shocked, her face suddenly turned white, and she turned her head to look at Wang Huanxi.
Huanxi also startled her, calmed down, and said, "I'm just asking casually...... Why are you looking at me like that?"
Huansha stared at Huanxi for a long time, and when she saw that she looked apprehensive and didn't seem to know, she said: "This is also nonsense?
Wang Huanxi heard that her voice was a little harsh, and became more and more surprised, because she lowered her head and wondered: "What is this......? My father-in-law will not disagree......"
Wang Huansha's face was even more pale, and when she heard the end, she smiled sadly, and muttered: "I'm afraid it's ......."
Huanxi frowned at her, puzzled, Wang Huansha came to her senses, so she hurriedly stopped, twisted her eyebrows and said: "All in all, you are not allowed to mention half a word of these words in the future, otherwise, I will ......"
Wang Huanxi saw that she recognized the truth, so he sneered: "I'm just thinking about my sister, do you really want to marry someone you don't like quietly?" Speaking of this, he saw Huansha's eyes dark, staring at herself.
Huanxi had never seen her like this, so she was a little frightened, and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I won't say it, and I won't say a word in the future!"
Wang Huansha nodded and hung her head silently.
Huanxi sighed and said, "Since my sister is like this...... So, are you going to agree to this family business?"
Wang Huansha calmed down and said: "Even if our father is alive, it is rare to be able to determine such a good family business...... The previous ruthless and unrighteous people are a hundred times better, not to mention the orders of my parents, the words of the matchmaker, and the words of the righteous father and mother, so I specially asked what I meant, they are our life-saving benefactors, and it is already precious to get such a fate, do you have to pick it up again? ”
Huanxi saw her awe-inspiring words, obviously made up her mind, Huanxi frowned slightly, opened her mouth, and was about to say a few words, but she knew that her sister, if she made up her mind, it would be irreversible......
Huanxi bit her lip, and only said: "What my sister said is ......" sighed silently, but thought in her heart: "My sister obviously has a sweetheart, but when I mention it, it looks like she wants to kill someone...... But I don't know who it is?"
Because since the two sisters came to the capital, they have not been able to leave the Ying Gongfu, and the man they saw ...... It's nothing more than everyone in the house, after thinking about it, it is Chunhui Li Huo and other "relatives", and Tang Shao also often comes and goes...... Huanxi thought: "Then the young master of the Tang family, he is really an outstanding one, is my sister interested in him?" It's just ...... The Tang family is high, but I'm afraid of ......"
Huanxi decided that Huansha liked Tang Shao, but he just kept this matter in his heart.
After the two sisters discussed, Wang Huansha looked for Li Xianshu and said that she agreed to this family affair with the Cheng family.
After a few days, the Cheng family ordered someone to come to the door to propose marriage, and the three media and six hires were serious, and they were engaged to Wang Huansha.
When Huaizhen heard about this in the Tang Mansion, he also felt unexpected, and on the day of his marriage, he also went back to the Ying Mansion in person.
On this day, Xiao Tang was busy and did not come, Huaizhen sent a congratulatory gift, and after lunch, he returned by car...... On the way, passing through the long street, Huaizhen quietly looked out from the curtain of the car, and saw that the market was full of people, and the shops were lined up, but he couldn't see what he wanted.
After driving for a while, I suddenly heard a loud voice in front of me, and I didn't know what to read...... Huaizhen only vaguely heard a "Ministry of Rites", so he turned around and asked Xiaohe, "What are they arguing about?"
Xiaohe arrived in front of the car, leaned over to take a look, and then came back and said to Huaizhen: "Young grandma doesn't know yet, the Ministry of Rites has posted a list these days, saying that it is to recruit some people who can speak Silla......"
Huaizhen somehow. Xiaohe quietly said again: "With such a big battle, I'm afraid that I will really send an envoy to Silla soon." ”
When Yexue heard this, she was afraid that she would be really worried, so she said: "It's okay, if you go to Silla, first, it may not be our master, and second, Silla is not as far away as Sharo Zhanmin and others, if you go back and forth quickly, it will only take half a year." ”
As he was saying this, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming quickly, and Xiao Heyin asked, "Who is running a horse like this on the street?" Hurriedly lifted the curtain and looked out, who knew that when he saw it, he was taken aback, it turned out to be a woman in cross-dress, holding a horsewhip, and was flying by on a horse, and his mouth was scolding from time to time.
Seeing this, Xiaohe sighed and said, "Grandma, look, it's Princess Chengrong of Zhan Minguo......"
Huaizhen was curious when he heard this, so he also turned his head to look slightly, and saw Princess Chengrong dressed in a blue robe, coming from behind, still wearing the pearl crown on her head, with the horse bumping, the pearl flashed, but it was gorgeous and moving, and it looked heroic.
Huaizhen couldn't help but be stunned, at this moment, Princess Chengrong saw the carriage of the Tang Mansion, and actually hit the horse to the front.
It was too late for Huai Zhen to look at it, Princess Chengrong was holding a horse whip, and she was on the horse, and she smiled at Huai Zhenzuo: "It turned out to be the third young grandmother, it was really a coincidence." ”
Huaizhen had to nod his head at her, seeing that the pearl was shining in the scorching sun, Cheng Rong's face was also a little sweaty, but he was even more radiant, Huaizhen couldn't help but admire, and said: "The princess forgive me for being rude." ”
Cheng Rong slowed down his horse speed and only followed the car, looking at Huaizhen and smiling: "The third young grandmother is very polite, since the last time I said goodbye to the Ying Mansion, I have always been very worried in my heart, but I don't dare to visit rashly, I don't want to meet so coincidentally today." ”
Huaizhen smiled, because he saw people coming and going, it was very inconvenient to talk to her like this, so he had to prevaricate and part ways with each other, but Cheng Rong looked at her and said with a smile: "What kind of incense has the third grandmother made recently?"
Huai Zhen was a little surprised, so he only looked at her, Cheng Rong raised his hand, pulled a sachet from his waist, held it in the palm of his hand to show Huai Zhen, and said, "This...... But it's also from the hands of the third young grandmother?"
Huai Zhen saw that what she was holding was the lotus sachet, and he was more and more stunned, and he was about to ask her how she knew, but the matter was confidential and had no inside information...... Asked rashly, but seemed to admit it, Huai Zhen only remained silent and asked, "I don't understand what the temple is talking about." ”
Cheng Rong didn't care about it, he only accepted the sachet and said with a smile: "Since the young grandmother doesn't understand, then it's okay." Yes, it's better to meet by chance, since I have the fate to meet the third grandmother today, I don't know if Cheng Rong has this honor, please let the young grandmother come over to talk about it?"
Huai Zhen was even more surprised, so he lowered his eyes and said: "The princess is kindly invited, I shouldn't have shirked it, but there is something important today, please forgive the princess." ”
Cheng Rong looked at her for a while and said with a smile: "It's okay, since that's the case, how about another day?"
Huai Zhen saw that she couldn't stop talking and just wanted to make a quick decision, so he only said lightly: "I'll talk about it another day." ”
Cheng Rong got this sentence, so he smiled and nodded, said goodbye, and went from Pegasus. Huai Zhen glanced at it, and saw that the figure was heroic, galloping on the horse, and flying away.
That night, when Xiao Tang came back, he asked Huai Zhendao: "Recently, the big ingots have always come to the house, what is the matter?"
Huai Zhen said: "It's just a trivial matter. ”
Xiao Tang washed his face, looked back at her when he heard the words, and saw her sitting on the edge of the bed in a trance, so he walked up, leaned over to look at Huaizhen, and said in a low voice: "If it is related to you, it is not a trivial matter." ”
Huaizhen couldn't help but laugh and said, "You can't take care of your own serious affairs, why bother with this?"
Xiao Tang said: "I naturally finished handling the affairs in the ministry, and now I'm back...... The lady's business is the right thing. ”
Huaizhen saw that his old state sprouted, and he began to "talk nonsense" again, but he just smiled bitterly.
It turned out that Huaizhen was because of the lotus sachet and saw that mosquitoes were rampant recently, so she took the trouble to adjust two kinds of incense that could repel mosquitoes and dispel heat, because she knew that Xiao Tang was unwilling to meddle in this matter, so she only told Zhang Zhen Ronglan and the two.
When the two heard this, they were very happy, so Zhang Zhen agreed with all her might, took the prescription, and took care of it herself.
Who knew that I liked some of them and put them in the shop, but there were few of them...... Zhang Zhen was afraid that Huaizhen was in a hurry, so she didn't tell her in detail, and at first she even reported good news but not bad news, but Huaizhen secretly sent Uncle Zhaocai to inquire, only to know that it was really "a dismal businessman".
Therefore, I have been worried about this matter for the past few days...... First, to make this incense, it must cost manpower and financial resources, if no one cares, wouldn't even Zhang Zhen be sorry? Therefore, Huaizhen was secretly anxious.
However, it was difficult to talk to Xiao Tang about this, he didn't advocate doing it at the beginning, Huai Zhen would rather ask Zhang Zhen to act by himself, and now he is not doing well, what does it mean to tell him again? Therefore, Huai Zhen resolutely refused to say it.
Xiao Tang saw that she was resolute, but he didn't ask anymore, just because Zhang Zhen often came to the house these days, Xiao Tang secretly sent someone to follow and investigate, and he already knew about it, and he was afraid that Huaizhen would be anxious and hurt his body, so he only smiled and said: "No matter what it is, whether it is success or failure, it is only not allowed to be so sad and incomprehensible...... If it makes you unhappy, it must not be a good thing, and you are not allowed to do it again. ”
Huai Zhen was already depressed in his heart, but when he heard this, he was unhappy, so he said, "Who said it is not a good thing? Suddenly, I thought of the same thing, Xiao Tang was able to do it smoothly, and she was not good at being out of the teacher...... What's more, Xiao Tang was not short of silver taels, but she had it at her fingertips, and now she wanted to help her mother, but she stumbled.
Huai Zhen pushed Xiao Tang away, and said angrily: "I will definitely do this thing, you just wait and see." With that, he glanced at Xiao Tang, ran out of the door, and went to find Minli by himself.
Xiao Tang sat on the edge of the bed, staring blankly at her, and only after a while did he laugh again and muttered, "This girl...... I almost forgot that if she was stubborn, she would really be ......."
Xiao Tang knew that she would have to go back to Minli's room for half an hour, and he wanted to go to the study, but after all, he was busy with business these days, and he was tired, so he wanted to rest first.
Huaizhen delayed in Minli's room for a long time, and when he returned to the room, he saw Xiao Tang sleeping in his clothes, although he was asleep, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, and he was obviously on his mind.
Huai Zhen looked at it for a long time, and said in his heart: "He is already working hard outside, why should I lose my temper with him? Because he walked to him with a light step, he looked at Xiao Tang for a long time, raised his hand and gently drew on his eyebrows, lowered his head and kissed again.
I thought that God didn't know the ghost, but before he got up, Xiao Tang suddenly raised his hand, and couldn't help but take her into his arms, and said with a half-open smile in his eyes: "Are you willing to come back?"
