Chapter 089: Love
Shen Yan hesitantly gave Li Chengqi a positive answer, "As long as it is beneficial to you and harmless to me, I am willing to do it." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"I will marry a woman next to me, and it will not hurt you?" In this way, from the mouth of his own woman, Li Chengqi does not think that she is broad-minded, but only thinks that she does not take herself in her eyes at all.
"As long as you marry a virtuous and generous wife." Shen Yan looked at him tightly, thought for a while and said, "I want to be your concubine, wasn't it originally ......"
"Good!" Li Chengqi interrupted her, "As long as she is willing to marry, I will marry." ”
There were many inexplicable looks in his eyes, and Shen Yan couldn't be at ease when he saw it. But she still said: "I'll ask Sister Min Min about her mind another day." With that, she pretended to be free and easy and returned to the inner room.
Sitting on the couch, she supported the edge of the wooden couch with her hands, drooping her head, showing exhaustion. After a long time, she stroked her still flat belly, showed a shallow smile again, and said in her heart: Grandpa is under Jiuquan, and he must be looking forward to your arrival.
Although she gave up the hard road to becoming a wife so quickly, she has no regrets about having this child.
However, he said that as soon as Yuerong returned to Fushoutang, he told Jiao that Wei Min and Shen Yan had long been acquainted. Jiao Shi was very disappointed when he heard this, "Miss Wei is obedient and polite, I like it tightly." We met again at the Guanyin Temple, which can be regarded as a bit of fate. How is she the old friend of the Shen family? ”
Seeing that the Jiao family was still a little reluctant, Yue Rong, who was stunned by Wei Min, hurriedly persuaded: "The old lady should think about it, if the Hou Ye really marries Miss Wei into the door, Miss Wei is with the Shen family." That's for nothing. ”
Jiao nodded, that was what she was worried about. She thought for a moment. Tell Yuerong to summon her cousin Jiao Huaiqing - she wants to ask her smart nephew for advice again.
Jiao Huaiqing listened to what happened, and naturally let Jiao relax his heart. He said: "Don't say that you are marrying an official woman for your cousin." Even marrying the emperor's relatives is also a matter of one sentence. ”
"But Miss Wei really likes it."
Jiao Huaiqing was slightly stunned, and quickly said: "Then aunt will understand and see how deep her love for the Shen family is, and how she will make trade-offs." ”
Jiao Shi stretched his brows when he heard this, "I think so too." She also said happily: "I think she also fell in love with us Qi'er at first sight, at that time, she was shy and couldn't take her eyes off, and she clearly liked it." ”
"My cousin was born handsome. is also magnificent, and has always been the favorite of his daughter's family. At this time, Jiao Huaiqing might as well flatter.
In fact, Shen Yan had expected that Jiao's would distrust Wei Min when she heard the news that she was familiar with Wei Min, so that night, she wrote a letter to Wei Min and asked Erhu to send it.
Wei Min, who had read the contents of the letter, was lying on the bed and laughed for a while. For a while, he showed a sad color, and it was rare to sleep peacefully all night.
The next day, Jiao's invited the Yongxu opera troupe to sing at night, and asked Wei Min to come to the Hou Mansion early in the morning.
The weather was wonderful. Jiao personally took Wei Min to visit the garden. She asked her, "Are you an old acquaintance with Shen Shiyan'er?" ”
Wei Min was shocked, she couldn't hide from what she was worried about. Since Jiao Shi asked, he couldn't allow her to think too much. She finally made up her mind, and nodded with a smile. "I've had a relationship with her, but I have a different personality from her. It's not speculative to talk and do things, just because my second brother worshipped her father as a teacher, and I often corresponded with her at that time, and it was difficult for me not to know her. ”
"So, you don't like her?" Jiao squinted slightly at Wei Min with eyes that were no longer youthful.
"Don't talk about whether you like it or not," Wei Min explained with a chuckle, "it's just that you can't play together." ”
"yes, yes." Jiao couldn't help but be happy, "The Shen family has a perverse temperament, and Miss Wei has such a gentle temperament, where can we play together?" ”
Hearing this, Yue Rong hurriedly interjected and asked, "Then why was Miss Wei so happy to see the Shen family yesterday, and she was so polite to her?" She won't forget Wei Min's offense to her because of Shen Yan.
Wei Min blushed, and said with some grievances: "Yesterday, I didn't know that the old lady didn't like her...... I know her anyway, even if I don't want to be close, it's not easy to be superficial. ”
"......"
Yue Rong still had a whisper, but when she saw that Jiao Shi glanced at herself, she held back and didn't say anything more.
"Yesterday I went to her house to talk, and she didn't drag me there." Wei Min spoke softly, but he did not hide his dislike for Shen Yan. She quickly changed the topic and said: "The place where she lives is really good, she must be very favored by the Hou Ye, right?" ”
Speaking of this, Jiao's family was angry, but she didn't say anything considering that she wanted Wei Min to be her daughter-in-law, and only smiled kindly: "My family Qi'er is also kind-hearted and accepted her as a concubine, treat her well, that is also to see her poor background, and it will be different if she marries a wife in the future." ”
While talking and laughing, Jiao saw Li Chengqi from a distance, she was busy taking Wei Min over, and then looked at Li Chengqi, but found that he was coming to her side.
Li Chengqi's face was expressionless, and when he saw Wei Min's salute, he only tapped his chin. Soon, he looked at Jiao Shi and asked bluntly: "My mother intends to let me marry Miss Wei as my wife, but is there such a thing?" ”
Wei Min immediately blushed. was questioned by her son like this in front of her, and Jiao's face was also very embarrassed. She thought about it for a while, thinking that since he asked, it would be pretentious for her to dodge again, so she replied: "Miss Wei, whether it is her background or character, is worthy of you." If the Wei Mansion doesn't dislike it," she glanced at Wei Min, "I really want to do this beautiful thing." ”
"That mother, although I asked someone to go to the Wei Mansion to talk to the matchmaker." Li Chengqi said that, bent over and retreated.
Jiao was amazed. She never expected that her son would not say a word against it. Wei Min was also surprised, although she could see that Ning Anhou was not happy that this family affair had happened. She thought about it for a while, and finally said to Jiao Shi with a red face: "Old lady, can I go and say a few words to Master Hou?" ”
Jiao Shi was stunned, she didn't expect her to be so bold, but she quickly agreed.
Wei Min quickly stopped Li Chengqi. She bowed to him again and bowed gracefully, and then she had the courage to ask, "Master Hou...... Do you really want to marry me? Is it what Yan'er's sister means? ”
It turned out that Shen Yan had already persuaded her! Li Chengqi looked at her, and his still calm brows frowned, "What did she tell you?" ”
She said. If I am willing, she hopes that Mrs. Ning Anhou is me. And not bystanders. Wei Min's face gradually returned to calm. The tone in which she spoke became as calm as usual.
"Will you?" Li Chengqi asked.
That's the case. Wei Mingang's recovered face rose again. She lowered her eyes and said shyly: "I saw the first time I saw the Hou Ye in the Hou Mansion yesterday, and I ...... It is my blessing to be able to serve the Hou Ye with my sister Yan'er. ”
She really likes Lee Seung-qi.
She liked everything on him, the clothes he wore, the accessories he wore, the way he walked, the way he talked, and the way he didn't smile. Even the way he doesn't take himself seriously, she likes it that way.
At the Temple of Goddess of Mercy. She begged for a marriage lot. The unsigned teacher told her that her marriage was right now.
Even without Shen Yan's appearance, she believed that he Ning Anhou was her beloved. It's just that she thought that Shen Yan would obstruct herself, but she didn't expect her to accept herself so calmly, and even instigate herself. And in any case, everything came to her liking.
"Then Miss Shen should return to Beijing as soon as possible, and the Hou Mansion will send a matchmaker to your mansion to say goodbye." Li Chengqi said and walked away. Even after listening to Wei Min's admiration. His attitude towards her was still lukewarm.
Wei Min looked at his departing back, and all that was swirling in his mind was that he was going to send a matchmaker to the Wei Mansion to say goodbye. and to be his wife, and to be so obedient. She couldn't believe it.
Jiao Shi walked over, and when he saw her smiling face, he couldn't help but ask happily, "What did my family Qi'er tell you?" ”
Wei Min told the truth.
Li Chengqi personally told Wei Min that he wanted to marry her. It made Jiao's heart even more depressed: why did his son agree to his arrangement so easily, and still said in front of Miss Wei that he wanted to marry her? Until the evening, the Hou Mansion set up a stage to sing opera. Only then did she understand that it turned out that between her son and the Shen family. I was suspicious.
In order to demonstrate to Shen Yan, she specially sent someone to the Imperial Xiangyuan to call her to come to the play together. When she came, she asked Wei Min to sit next to her, treating her like she had treated Jiao Huaiyu before, showing that she was not spoiled.
Shen Yan sat behind Li Chengqi's side and didn't say anything about this scene, but also saw Li Chengqi's indifference to himself - Li Chengqi only watched the play quietly and never looked back at Shen Yan. Jiao Shi and Wei Min talked to him, and he showed great enthusiasm. Such a scene makes Shen Yan look like an outsider.
She finally got up and said to Jiao's: "Old lady, I'm a little unwell, so let's go back to the room to rest first." ”
Jiao didn't look at her, only waved his hand impatiently, allowing her to retreat.
Leaving the stands, Xiyu was a little annoyed, but she kept her mouth flat and didn't say a word of gossip.
Yan Yongxu's beautiful voice came out of the middle when she sang, making the cold winter night seem even more lonely. Shen Yan reached out and touched the snow-white fluff of the apricot-red cloak on her body, but her face was as calm as water. Regarding Li Chengqi's indifference to herself and Jiao's enthusiasm for Wei Min, she didn't seem to take it to heart at all.
The situation is developing in the direction she expected, and she shouldn't feel bleak.
"Sister-in-law......"
When Shen Yan stepped back to the Imperial Fragrance Garden, this soft call sounded behind her. When she looked back, she was surprised to see Li Chengmao's gentle face, and on that face, there was a pair of eyes that often carried a little melancholy from time to time.
He had seen him like this as early as in the previous life, Shen Yan. Every time I saw her, it was after she was hurt by Li Chengqi. At that time, she was moved by his appearance, so she chose to fornicate with him in the wrong environment...... Now that I think about it, how ridiculous that was.
"Second master, don't call me that, your sister-in-law is listening to the drama inside." She looked at him, smiling, half joking, half serious.
"You got it?" After Li Chengmao was surprised, he slowly walked up to Shen Yan and asked her, "The eldest brother wants to marry Miss Wei and enter the door, aren't you sad?" ”
"I, a man who has nothing, would be sad because of this?" Shen Yan's words were light, and there was no trace of sadness in her eyes.
Hearing her say this, Li Chengmao was not distressed. She was a weak woman, and after experiencing these things one after another, it is no wonder that she is as hard as a stone, and she does not know the warmth and cold, and she does not know the pain. If it were him, he would have to do everything he could to melt this stone, but what could he do...... He is not qualified to melt her. (To be continued.) )
