Chapter 275: Elders
He deliberately bit the word "elder", which was to remind Zeng Mingxi that Hugh wanted to talk about this generation, he didn't care about what generation was not old, Bai Mujian and him had long been relatives who couldn't beat him.
Bai Mujian felt a little dizzy in his head, after such a while, why did these two become his elders? Feng Jiuqing had something to say, after all, he was his grandmother's cousin, but Zeng Mingxi's elder was really a bit far-fetched, right?
Zeng Mingxi also thought the same, so he immediately said with color: "Lord, what you said is unreasonable, my father is sympathetic to the grandfather of the old country, and he was indeed called a brother, but in the end there is no official title, how can it be counted?"
"Why don't you count it? Ling Zunwei Yuanhou and the old grandfather are both people who promise a thousand gold, since they used to be brothers, it means that they both regard each other as equals, and you will be a generation older than the county lord in terms of identity!" Feng Jiuqing has no intention of backing down, either everyone is an equal, or everyone has become an elder, anyway, he has never been willing to suffer.
Lu Qingyun saw that these two people had a great intention of breaking down, and hurriedly said: "Come on, don't try to take advantage of my cousin and me, we are all brothers, the relationship between the previous generation belongs to the previous generation, let's belong to us, you want to be my cousin's elder, don't you also want to be my elder?"
Zeng Mingxi and Feng Jiuqing spoke at the same time: "You don't talk much!"
Then they looked at each other and smiled at the same time, Zeng Mingxi arched his hand and said, "Lord Wang, is your body good?"
Feng Jiuqing shook the folding fan, but coughed lightly, and said slightly weakly: "Woo...... It's just a little thing, how can you worry about it, you can still hold it!"
"According to the minister, the prince is very weak, why don't the ministers send someone to send you back to the house?" Zeng Mingxi proposed very respectfully, changing his previous aggressiveness.
Feng Jiuqing waved his hand and said, "No need, no need, the county lord will take good care of this king if he wants to come, county lord, are you right?"
As she spoke, she also caressed her heart, as if she was really out of breath, Bai Muhibiscus frowned slightly, if she still believed that Feng Jiuqing was overconsumed to save herself, it would be too stupid.
But in the final analysis, I also owe people family favors, so I had to say: "Mama Rui, help the prince to go to the guest house to rest, mandarin duck, you follow to take care of the prince!"
When Zeng Mingxi heard this, his eyes instantly brightened, and sure enough, Bai Mujian didn't continue to be on Feng Jiuqing's side, this fox, did he really think that he could take it with him to ask for revenge?
But Feng Jiuqing was not annoyed, but smiled very proudly, and said to Bai Mujian: "County Lord, you have to work, right...... I don't want to miss the good show later, you have to send someone to tell me!"
After saying that, he winked at her, as if he was an unknown prophet, Bai Mu Hibiscus was greatly surprised, how could this person know everything? Sure enough, as she expected, the danger level was too high, and he really shouldn't be approached!
But there are some things, it really won't happen if Bai Mujian is unwilling, just like Feng Jiuqing inexplicably broke into her world, in the previous life, the two people were like parallel lines, they never had an intersection point, but they collided unexpectedly in this life.
As he spoke, he walked out of the hall idly, neither Mama Rui nor Mandarin Duck went to help him, but one followed behind him, and the other led the way in front.
Ah Zhong and Mandarin Duck walked side by side behind, sobbing coldly, and Mandarin Duck also glared at Ah Zhong, making Ah Zhong really confused.
How did he know that the mandarin duck was angry, and the prince was clearly good, and he deliberately pretended to be pitiful and sympathetic, so that she couldn't stay by his young lady's side, which was really hateful!
Lu Qingyun glanced at Zeng Mingxi, and then walked over to Bai Mujian and asked, "Are we going to watch the show in a bright way, or are we looking for a place to watch it while drinking tea?"
"Naturally, I watched it while drinking tea, and I was so tired and panicked with so many people!" Bai Mujian smiled gently, as if he really planned to go to the theater garden to watch the play.
"The Star Tower is good, it's a good place!" "There is a view overlooking the entire Guogong Mansion, and you won't miss any good shows.
"Then let's go!" Zeng Mingxi also said with a smile.
Whether you understand or don't understand, you will follow with great interest, anyway, you are never afraid of big things when you watch the excitement, but you are afraid that the excitement is not good enough!
Looking at the stars upstairs, good tea, good water and good scenery, several people sit in groups, quietly looking at the gate of Ningguo Mansion, which is located in the center, the most convenient thing is that it is relatively close to the flower hall of the banquet guests, and you can hear the people talking there.
Mama Rui and Mandarin Duck both ran over and smiled at Bai Mujian, and then stood behind her, waiting quietly for the show to begin, this was a big gift from them to the Lu family.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the door of the Ningguo Mansion to usher in the three most famous matchmakers in the aristocratic circle of the capital, their figures were very rich, with a joyful smile on their faces, and the three shouted: "Carry the dowry into the Guogong Mansion!"
The concierge of the Guogong Mansion was a little inexplicable, and hurriedly asked, "Three mothers, what are you doing?"
"Come and propose to Miss Bai, hehe...... This is a red envelope for you, your house is very happy, this family business, but there are nobles to protect it, it is not an ordinary glory!" The matchmaker in the middle is surnamed Hua, and there is no one in the aristocratic circle in the capital who does not know the matchmaker.
Although it is not an official media, the reputation of the flower matchmaker is good, and there are countless matchmakers who have been made over the years, so they have some friendship.
The blue-clothed matchmaker on the left, surnamed Xu, also smiled and trembled, and said: "That's it, I usually come to propose marriage, and it is rare to invite all our three matchmakers, and today I have given enough face to the Guogong Mansion!"
The porter was even more surprised and asked, "Who is it for?"
"It's for the young master to tell me the matchmaker!" Out of the sedan chair came a slightly stocky man, it was Zhu Changrong, Zhu Bawang! This matter he begged his sister who was a concubine, and then he said that his father sent someone to propose marriage.
However, his father refused to come in person because he said that this family matter could not be done, for fear of embarrassment, but Zhu Changrong insisted that this matter would definitely be done, with his sister in charge, and he still had a token with him, were he still afraid that the young lady would regret it?
However, he also knew that he should not take that token out unless it was in case, after all, it would hinder Bai Yunxi's reputation, and he still knew this.
The porter glanced at the very neatly dressed son, who was dressed up to serve as a superior person, but his appearance and temperament were inferior, and the porter who was on an errand in the Guogong Mansion was also very eye-catching, although he didn't know Zhu Changrong, but he also knew that this son was afraid that he was not a good match!
The older porter hurriedly sent the younger one to the house to report, and they couldn't be the master of this matter, so they could only let the master deal with it.
Zhu Changrong walked into the threshold of the Guogong Mansion with a loud roar, and the old porter hurriedly stopped him and said, "Son, let's wait for the grandfather to come out!"
Zhu Changrong's eyebrows knotted, and he said unhappily: "Your Guogong Mansion is so hospitable? Young Master Ben is here to propose marriage, not to make trouble, how can you guard against me like a thief?"
The old porter secretly complained, and hurriedly asked: "Childe, the villain is clumsy, he doesn't recognize the son, he doesn't dare to let you in at will, the villain is just a minion, where do you dare to call the shots casually!"
Zhu Changrong's face was only slightly better-looking, and he raised his hand at the flower matchmaker, and said proudly: "Tell him, who is Young Master Ben, and who is the family business!"
The flower matchmaker hurriedly stepped forward, with a festive smile on her face, and said loudly: "This is the young master of the Admiral of the Nine Gates, Zhu Dashao, this family affair is personally approved by Concubine Zhu in the palace, that is a great glory!"
As soon as the porter heard the words Admiral of the Nine Gates, he already softened his legs, and when he heard Concubine Zhu again, he was even more flustered, he was not afraid of the power of the Zhu family, but afraid of this Zhu Gongzi, who was a well-known bully in the capital, and on weekdays, his grandson would be disobedient and crying, and mentioning Zhu Changrong's name would also scare the child.
It can be seen how bad and loud Zhu Changrong's reputation is! The porter really doesn't know how Zhu Dashao, who can't fight with the eight poles of the Guogong Mansion on weekdays, suddenly remembered to propose to their young lady.
He was flustered, and he didn't even think about which young lady this person was here to propose, so he hurriedly dissuaded: "Young Master Zhu, please take a long-term view of this matter, now that the county lord in our mansion is feasting guests, it is really inappropriate to propose marriage at this time!"
"She feasted her guests, I mentioned my relatives, the well water does not interfere with the river water, it is not in the way, this young master will not blame your house for neglecting me, let my family carry the dowry in first!"
The porter complained bitterly, and today he was going to let this bully into the mansion, and he didn't know how the grandfather of the country would punish himself afterwards, just thinking about it with his toes, and he also knew that it was impossible for the master's family to marry the county lord to such a person, and that reputation was a very smelly person.
The porter also thought that Zhu Changrong wanted to marry Bai Muhibiscus, after all, the second lady was not yet at the age of the marriage, although in the aristocratic family, the young lady also decided to marry early, but seeing that this Zhu Gongzi is not young, naturally he will not wait until the second miss and Lu to get married, and it is natural that he should have come to propose to the eldest lady of Kuai and Lu.
But the eldest lady is so noble as the county lord, how can this kind of person be worthy? The porter knew that Zhu Changrong was humiliated, but this bully was too famous on weekdays, which made him angry, and he was also the son of the Admiral of the Nine Gates, the younger brother of the nobleman in the palace, although he did not have a title, but compared to the power of the Guogong Mansion, it was definitely more than a star and a half higher.
The porter could only watch the people of the Zhu family carry the dowry in, and the three cheerful matchmakers in dress also followed, today's Guogong Mansion is really going to be lively, just after a while to catch assassins, searching for people all over the house, and now there is a bully who comes to the door to propose, this is definitely a restless chicken!
