Chapter 20: The Uproar
There was a mess outside, which soon alarmed the ladies who were listening to the play inside. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info waited for the head of Mingdan County to forcibly pull Xie Yixin and Zhou Lingqiao apart, and the two of them were already shaking their sideburns and embarrassed.
"The daughter's family in the boudoir, why is it so disrespectful? What kind of system? "The lord of Mingdan felt that something was wrong at the banquet and lost his face, and he was very angry.
Zhou Lingdexterity knelt on his knees, faced the ladies, and cried without saying a word. And Xie Yixin bowed to the Lord of Mingdan, and stood aside with a cold face.
Seeing that the two of them were silent, and the others didn't know why, the Lord of Mindan asked, "What's going on?" ”
Meng Baoying just wanted to speak, but when she saw her mother trying to shut her eyes, she looked at her sister Yixin again, and Yixin shook her head slightly, so she had to take a step back and lower her head.
Seeing that no one answered, Zhou Lingqiao raised his head, revealing his face with slap marks, and said while crying: "Second aunt, I just told her about today, Young Master Yang came to pay tribute to my grandmother's birthday, and she beat me and begged the second aunt to make decisions for me." ”
Seeing that the matter involved Young Master Yang, and the Lord of Mingdan County was also present this morning, some words were too implicated, and it was inconvenient to say it in the hall in public. So the county lord of Mingdan apologized to the ladies and asked people to take Xie Yixin and Zhou Lingqiao to the side hall. He also ordered someone to go to the front yard and quietly invited Yang Zhaowu over.
When they came to the side hall, only their daughter Zhou Lingsu and a few loyal maids remained, and the others remained outside the hall. The county lord of Mingdan took a sip of tea, and said with a smile on his face: "Now you can talk slowly, and tell the cause and effect all over again." ”
Zhou Lingqiao omitted the scolding part in the back, and cried and cried.
And Yang Zhaowu in the front yard didn't know anything about it, the hydrangea thrown by Mrs. Dong this morning, he was not a junior who could refuse, but fortunately, Mrs. Yang directly refused on the spot. He didn't take it to heart, and now his attention has been on observing a few young talents he has recently selected. After all, looking at the character in the subtleties, if you can be worthy of your sister, of course, you have to think twice.
But it can be seen that either the family background is a little worse, or the knowledge is secondary, or the appearance is not handsome enough, and it is not worthy of the sister, or the family is complicated, and the sister is afraid that it will not be easy to get along in the future.
is weighing it again and again, fortunately, there are a few sons in the capital today, and there is a familiar one, just inquire about whether there are suitable candidates in the capital first. Maybe I will return to Beijing next year to participate in the Spring Festival, and I can see my sister first.
"Zilan, I didn't expect you to come to Jinling too. I don't know who this is? "Mo Zilan is the fifth young master of the Pingguo Mansion, her mother is Princess Duanjing, and Yang Zhaowu's mother, Lord Minghui, is a handkerchief. The two have known each other for a long time in the capital, but they don't know who the man in the dark robe is.
"This is the young master of the Imperial Merchants Four Seas Commercial Bank, Jun is extraordinary." Jun Feifei bowed to Yang Zhaowu and introduced: "This is also my cousin, Yang Zhaowu, the grandson of General Weiyuan. Yang Zhaowu also returned the salute.
"Cousin Zhaowu! The fifth brother has been bored to death recently, and when he heard that Mrs. Dong was celebrating her birthday, she came to join in the fun. Don't say it, this Jinling is really good, the mountains and rivers are beautiful! Zilan played with the folding fan, shook her head and said.
For this Mo Zilan, Yang Zhaowu is ashamed of his love affair of riding a horse full of red sleeves. However, he hadn't seen Zilan before, and Yang Zhaowu was still a little puzzled. "Aren't you the most showy? I just commented on the poems, why didn't I see you? ”
"Cut! A real boudoir daughter, will she take out the poems for comment? Just now I went out with Extraordinary and met a small chili, which was very spicy! It's very much to my liking. Mo Zilan wanted to laugh a little when she thought that the woman was just like that in front of them, throwing the apricot blossom branches into the lake without changing her face to "destroy the evidence".
When Yang Zhaowu heard him say this, he remembered that in the poems circulated and commented today, there was no word for his sister, and he couldn't help but be a little proud of it. I heard that Zilan and they met Xiao Pepper, presumably stole it to the backyard, and reminded: "The county lord of Mingdan is the most good-looking, don't bring the capital here, mess up the birthday of Mrs. Dong, you will suffer it." ”
was chatting when he saw the head of the county lord's mansion come to invite Yang Zhaowu. "Young Master Yang, there is something in the backyard, the county lord invites you to go."
Yang Zhaowu was a little puzzled, "But what did you say?" The backyard is full of women, and it may not be convenient for me to go. ”
Mo Zilan, who was next to him, covered his face with a fan and whispered: "Cousin Zhaowu, the world has really changed recently. It turns out that the beauty fell into the water and the hero saves the beauty is outdated, and now it is popular to leave the door for the future mother-in-law, and have a private meeting in the backyard! ”
Yang Zhaowu glared at him, intending to reject the long follower. Mo Zilan took the lead and said, "Lead the way ahead." ”
Yang Zhaowu was puzzled and didn't move, Mo Zilan stepped forward and said, "Don't be afraid, I will go with you with Feifei, so that if there is any trickery, I can't just plant you on your head." These tricks in the backyard are very familiar to my son! Jun Feifei also said: "Since it is the county lord of Mingdan who has been invited, and it is not good to tell him directly, there must be something important, Brother Yang should go and see it." ”
Seeing Mo Zilan's face that he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, Yang Zhaowu thought for a while, with the two of them together, there should be no mistakes, so he was taken around the backyard by the long entourage.
And Zhou Lingqiao in the side hall has already said the cause and effect again, except for the last scolding mother, adding a few more colors, Xie Yixin still didn't say a word.
Seeing this, Zhou Lingsu said to his mother, Lord Mingdan: "Mother, it must be just a little misunderstanding, but Sister Xie is a little more angry, and she will do it if she doesn't agree." ”
Seeing that his mother was silent, she gently persuaded Xie Yixin: "Sister Xie, what did you misunderstand?" My cousin and I have our own parents' orders, the matchmaker's words, my grandmother and General Yang are just joking, Sister Xie doesn't have to take it seriously. ”
Xie Yixin turned her head and asked, "What you said is true?" Is it really just a joke? ”
"What a shameless woman! So what does the young master of the Yang family have to do with you? Do you care so much about his family? The Lord of Mindan was furious.
"I like Brother Zhaowu, he didn't marry for a day, I like him for a day!"
Xie Yixin's voice was a little loud, and it happened to be heard clearly by Yang Zhaowu and the three outside the door. "Cousin Zhaowu, I didn't expect you to be so sought-after! Why does this sound sound familiar? Mo Zilan followed Yang Zhaowu and pushed the door in.
"Tut-tut! Aunt Mingdan, is this the one you sing? Dou E is wronged or the second daughter fights for a husband? Is it still full martial arts? Jinling's daughter's house is really strong! As soon as Mo Zilan came in, she said with a smile.
Yang Zhaowu looked at Xie Yixin first, and saw that her double buns were simple and neat, although her clothes were a little messy, but there were no scars. I saw that Zhou's dexterous fallen horse bun was half broken, and the hairpin was only crooked, with an obvious slap mark on his face.
After a moment, he stepped forward and saluted, "I don't know what happened to the county lord?" Mo Zilan and Jun Feifei also stepped forward to salute.
Lord Mingdan didn't expect Mo Zilan and Jun Feifei to come, so he took a sip of tea and said, "It's nothing to do with you two, just sit down." Mo Zilan and Jun sat beside each other in a well-behaved manner.
The county lord of Mingdan continued: "It's clever to say that Taijun and General Yang had a good conversation, saying that it is a little inappropriate for Miss Xie to call you Brother Zhaowu, and this Miss Xie next door to you will beat people at the banquet." I have to ask you to come over and hear if you are happy, and I will tell your mother when I go back to Beijing, so that she can also be happy. ”
