Chapter Seventy-Six: Confrontation
Zhong and Mrs. Wang talked and laughed, Wang Liying listened quietly on the side, took a sip of tea from time to time, and looked outside shyly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhong was talking to Mrs. Wang, so he stopped and asked, "Is Liying's tea cold, let them change to a hot cup." ”
This was said implicitly, but Wang Liying lowered her head embarrassedly and said, "The tea is just right, it's just me thinking about things." It's Liying's fault that you are still bothering your aunt. ”
"Just treat it as your own home, don't be so restricted." Zhong looked at Wang Liying and smiled, and had already put Wang Liying on his side in his heart. "Why are you thinking so distracted?"
Wang Liying bit her lip.
Mrs. Wang stretched out her hand and patted Wang Liying, and said, "This kid usually doesn't care so much. ”
"I know that this kid is a simple person, not a person who can hide his thoughts." Zhong spoke for Wang Liying.
Wang Liying glanced at Zhong gratefully, and Zhong felt that Wang Liying was simple and pleasant, and if she got married, she was also an obedient person and could live with control.
I heard that a while ago, the wife of the Zhao family gave her stepson not Wang Liying, but Miss Yuan.
Zhong sneered in her heart, if she was the wife of the Zhao family, how could she choose a soft and casual personality for her stepson, or what about her own children? Although Miss Yuan's family is higher than Wang Liying, she is inevitably too assertive and difficult to discipline.
These young ladies in the capital, the Zhong family has inquired. Therefore, she couldn't help but laugh at Yang Minyan's poor family, who only knew how to climb high branches, but she didn't even understand the basic truth.
Feng Xian and Feng Jiao secretly exchanged faces, and Feng Jiao quietly withdrew.
After a while, Feng Jiao came back with a frown and whispered a word in Zhong's ear, and the smile on Zhong's face immediately disappeared.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward, and the smiling face of Mrs. Wang froze.
Zhong looked at the mother and daughter of the Wang family, and said with a little uneasily on his face: "I heard that the stewards of Zhuangzi have all come, and Xian'er said that he will come over after seeing the stewards." ”
"It's still the matter of Zhuangzi. In the future, as long as Sister Zhong doesn't dislike it, I will take Liying to visit the door often, and there will always be a time to see you, right? Mrs. Wang laughed.
Wang Liying also comforted from the side, and Zhong's face finally eased a little.
Liu Xian had never fallen on her face like this in front of outsiders, so it was no wonder she was angry.
"My kid doesn't know what to do, and he has something at hand, and he won't take a break until he's done with it, but it makes you laugh." Zhong said embarrassedly.
Who can't hear the pride in her tone, although it sounds like she is derogating Liu Xian, but in fact she is praising Liu Xian's ability.
Wang Liying is not the kind of person who can't hear the voiceover, she immediately said: "Auntie, we are all women's families, and there are just a few things at home." Men are different, where do people who do big things have idle time, aunt, don't be angry, this is to show your brother's anger, and you will fight for it outside, and the days in our family are only impressive. ”
Zhong Shi smiled with satisfaction when he heard this, and said, "Liying is really knowledgeable, but I, I can't even figure it out." ”
"You are a beloved son, where is the person who can't be reasonable." The wife of the Wang family followed Wang Liying to support her.
Zhong thought that people said that they would bow their heads to marry their daughters-in-law and raise their heads to marry their daughters, but it was different to stay in their house. I usually hear a lot of flattery from others, and it's not all aimed at Xian'er, it's rare that the mother and daughter of the Wang family haven't even seen Xian'er's face, and they praise her like this. It seems that she still has done it here, and the mother and daughter of the Wang family are the kind of people who know cold and hot, thinking about it like this, Zhong's mood is greatly comfortable, and the unhappiness just now is swept away.
"It's good that it's you, if you're someone else, I don't know what to say about us." Zhong remembered the face of Mrs. Zhou.
Mrs. Wang pretended to be surprised and asked, "Is there anyone like that?" Isn't that a bone in an egg? ”
"Hmph, no, there are more people you haven't seen." Speaking of such a person, Zhong couldn't help but pout.
Mrs. Zhou is not a good person when she looks at it, so she will point fingers behind people's backs. Zhong suspects that Liu Xian's baseless gossip was propagated by the wife of the Zhou family, and if they can't marry the Liu family, they will act as villains.
Wang Liying said curiously: "Are there really a lot of nitpickers?" Wouldn't they have lost even some fun in life? ”
Zhong looked at Wang Liying and smiled, and said: "How many years ago, like Liying, I also felt surprised, but later I saw a lot, and I knew that I was too well protected by my parents in the past, and I had too little knowledge. ”
Wang Liying smacked her lips, "Oh, then I'd better know less." I don't know how much hard work it takes to be so capable like my aunt. ”
"Children don't talk about it, they have to grow up one day." Chung said.
The wife of the Wang family showed some dissatisfaction with Wang Liying again, and said: "Other people, how many husbands and children have been married and taught at your age." You're still so childish, waiting to be sold, and it's also a life to give money to the numbers. ”
Wang Liying opened her mouth with an aggrieved expression, but she didn't stand up to her mother in front of everyone.
Zhong looked at it in his eyes, thinking that the wife of the Wang family was quite strict with her daughter's teachings, and Wang Liying was simple and kind, and knew that not talking back to her mother in front of everyone was really very close to her.
If she didn't let Xian'er come over to take a look, she couldn't let go of this matter in her heart today.
Seeing that it was not too early, Liu Xian's side had not moved. Zhong's heart was crossed, and he said to the wife of the Wang family: "You wait here for a while, I'll go to Xian'er to see if he's done." ”
"Well, don't rush him." Mrs. Wang instructed. Wang Liying looked at Zhong with burning eyes.
Zhong replied: "Well, I won't rush him, I'll wait until he finishes the important things." ”
After saying that, he hurried out the door, and his face was full of anger again.
Feng Jiao stayed here, and Feng Xian strode behind Zhong Shi, and she didn't dare to take a breath.
Yi Yi saw Zhong coming from afar with the wind at his feet, and immediately got into the house, trembling and said to Liu Xian: "Young master, it's over, Madam is here." ”
Liu Xian put down the pen unhurriedly, and said while cleaning his hands: "Come on, it's coming, what are you anxious about?" ”
Yi Yi shook his head four times, and asked with a crying face: "You just asked my mother to tell my mother that there are people in Zhuangzi, and you want to see a few people in charge." But what about the ones who can take care of things? You're still writing slowly, I'm so anxious! Other things are small, if the lady thinks that I am deceiving her with my mother, how can it be good? ”
Zhong Zi sent someone to send a letter to Liu Xian, but the letter did not mention anything important, but asked him to take time to go to Zhuangzi today. Because his mother Zhong had been staring, Liu Xian didn't dare to go out at this time, for fear of exposing Zhong Zi. But he didn't want to go out to meet Wang Liying and them, so he wrote in the house to pass the time.
"I'll just say it's my mother here, you stand back." Liu Xian looked at Yiyi making such a fuss and smiled.
B Yi didn't say a word, and immediately hid behind Liu Xian.
When Zhong came in, Yi Yi poked his head out in this strange posture and quickly retracted again.
Zhong didn't even look at Yi Yi, and asked Liu Xian directly: "There are guests at home, but you are hiding here, where have you learned the etiquette?" Could it be that Zhong Zihe is leaving, your mind is alive again, thinking about doing it against me? ”
"Mother, didn't you say that you will never interfere in your son's marriage in the future?" Liu Xian choked Zhong's words.
Zhong Shi angrily stroked his heart: "There are so many women in the world, do you have to choose such a woman?" ”
The Zhong family is not angry, this Zhong Zi is also a bad spirit, and it is just a matter of getting married, and he actually made a matter of harmony and separation, not to mention the face of the Zhong family, and Xian'er, who was still harmful, moved his mind again.
It's a hindrance.
It's not early, it's not too late, it's time and it's gone.
And after leaving, I didn't even go home, I don't know where I went, and I don't know if I was afraid of being embarrassed, or what. It is also her Zhong Zi's fate, otherwise the day she was sent back would be her death.
When the Zhong family learned the news that Zhong Zi had reconciled with the prince, she had already left with her things. The Zhong family has never had a daughter to remarry, and Zhong Zi can't give the Zhong family face if he is alive, so he will be ashamed to die. If she doesn't appear, if she does, the Zhong family will definitely not let her go.
"If Mother knows, why do you have to say it again."
"You're trying to get angry with me! How many good girls can be chosen, do you have to die on her? Zhong asked with all his might. Xian'er, if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your father and mother. When the time comes, if your grandfather's family keeps making trouble, what will you let us do? ”
"That's what I owe her."
Zhong took a step closer and asked, "You owe her, what do you owe her?" When she begged you to marry her, did you not marry her? Liu Xian's words were just a joke in Zhong's eyes.
"It's not that she begged me, it was me who begged her to marry me, and she shouldn't." Liu Xian shook his head self-deprecatingly and said, "I couldn't help her, and I made her work so hard." She is now being blamed and laughed at. ”
Zhong Shi was alerted by Liu Xian's words, and she asked vigilantly, "Do you know Zhong Zi's whereabouts, or do you mean that you hid her?" ”
"Does it make a difference whether she hides herself or someone else hides her?" When it comes to Zhong Zi's matter, Liu Xian has lost his usual gentleness, and his whole body is like a thorn.
Zhong's heart ached, her filial son was only because of Zhong Zi who quarreled with her.
"If you are willing to meet the guests, your mother can promise you that she will not send someone to find Zhong Zi's whereabouts, and even if you meet her in the future, you will not see her." Zhong threw out his bottom line.
"Okay." Liu Xian didn't weigh the comparison, so he readily agreed to Zhong's request.
This little thing is simply not worth mentioning compared to Cousin Zhongzi.
Zhong saw that his son agreed, but he had other calculations in his heart. Whenever Zhongzi's matter is mentioned, Xian'er has no reason at all, so it is better to use him to think of a good way to force him to get married.
Wang Liying met Liu Xian as she wished, and saw that his expression was more indifferent than that day, but she had some impulses to become more and more frustrated.
The wife of the Wang family even wants her daughter to marry, the Liu family is indeed simpler than the Zhao family, and the Zhong family seems to be like Liying. But this time she didn't want to be too proactive, and like Mrs. Zhao, she was very enthusiastic at the beginning, and what she said was good, but in the end she snubbed Liying, and Liying was not good to kiss again.
The mother and daughter fulfilled their wishes and went home happily.
Liu Xian took advantage of the night, shook off the people sent by the Zhong family to follow him, and rode to Zhuangzi.
The lights were already dimming.
The moonlight swept across the treetops, as if a light veil had slipped down, shedding a slight chill.
Liu Xian got off his horse and couldn't help but shiver.
Someone handed him a cloak behind him, and Liu Xian tied it before turning around and saying, "Thank you, cousin." ”
The people who could walk behind him silently were probably no one else except Zhong Zi.
Zhong Zi had already hidden, but he walked out of the shadows with a boring face, kicked at Liu Xian and said, "How can you guess that it's me every time?" ”
Liu Xian smiled and asked, "What did my cousin ask me to come over?" ”
"Of course it's urgent!" Zhong Zi was annoyed that he was slowly soaring, and he came over after dark, and deliberately said half of his words.
"What's the urgency? Fang Xiu's business? ”
Except for Fang Xiu's matter, Liu Xian really couldn't think of anything else that was urgent for Zhong Zi.
Who knew that Zhong Zi glared at him and said, "Can't I have something else?" Don't mention Fang Xiu to me as soon as we meet, I haven't planned to forgive him yet. ”
Fang Xiu still has a wife at home, although Zhong Zi met with Fang Xiu, he didn't say anything inappropriate or do anything inappropriate.
She didn't know why, she just wanted to see Fang Xiu, and she felt relieved in her heart.
As soon as these words came out, looking at Liu Xian's expression, Zhong Zi probably guessed that Liu Xian already knew that she had made an appointment with Fang Xiu, and flew up again in annoyance.
"Are you sending someone to follow me?"
"Absolutely not, conscience of heaven and earth." Liu Xian swore to the sky.
In fact, with his understanding of Zhong Zi, Zhong Zi smiled and moved, he could see what Zhong Zi was thinking, what he wanted to do, and where he needed to follow her.
"Okay, let's go inside, it's cold outside." Zhong Zi looked at Liu Xian and swore seriously, not planning to joke with him anymore, but cut to the chase and said: "Sister Xi was injured, I asked her to recuperate in your grange, and it was inconvenient to say in detail on the letter, so I asked you to come over." ”
Liu Xian frowned and asked, "How did Sister Xi get hurt, where was the injury, and was the injury serious?" ”
He walked quickly to the courtyard: "Which room is Sister Xi'er in, have you rested?" ”
"The doctor said it was fine. I hurt my leg and couldn't walk for the time being, so I had to take care of it for a few days. Zhong Zi poked Liu Xian's arm and said, "Wait a minute, I have something to ask you." ”
"I'll go see Sister Xi first. If you have anything to say, wait for Sister Xi to rest, let's talk slowly. Liu Xian was already worried.
Zhong Zi sighed and whispered to Liu Xian: "To be honest, you shouldn't like Sister Xi, right?" That's right, if I were a man, I would like Sister Xi. Liu Xian didn't answer, Zhong Zi could only talk to himself. (To be continued.) )
