Zhou Zhenwei knelt down, and everyone kneeling was stunned, not knowing what was going on, and they all looked at it dumbfounded.

The old lady looked at him with heavy eyes, smiled, and said slowly: "I want to say something considerate to my grandson, the eldest daughter-in-law will stay, and the rest will disperse!" ”

Everyone gradually retreated, and after a while, only the old lady, the eldest lady, and Zhou Zhenwei were left in the house. The atmosphere froze inexplicably, and the eldest lady stepped forward and chuckled, "What's wrong with Zhenwei today?" This battle has frightened people's hearts! ”

Zhou Zhenwei didn't answer, looked at the old lady, and finally gritted his teeth and said in a rough voice: "My grandson is on official business, and I was congratulated on my engagement, but I felt that it was someone else's nonsense, and I wanted to arrest him in anger, but that person shouted wronged, let me come to the house and ask myself!" I didn't want to run this trip, and I thought that there would be no wind and no waves in this matter, and my grandmother would definitely not do such a foolish thing, but she couldn't help her make her own opinions, so she asked her grandmother to give Zhenwei a clear word, is this matter true? ”

The old lady's face changed greatly, and she looked sideways at the eldest lady and shouted: "Didn't you say that your grandson urged you to go to the Fang family to propose marriage?" Why does he say he doesn't know about it now? ”

The eldest lady blushed, looked at Zhou Zhenwei and argued, "Why did Zhenwei say that? A few days ago, in this room, you came to accompany the old lady to breakfast, and you said that I should just mention my relatives, and I was afraid that the daughter's family would not want to! ”

"But anyone else is listening?" The old lady asked again.

The eldest lady secretly thought, old lady, are you also in front of you? But it was hard to say clearly, so he thought about it and replied: "Zhulan is also listening to it at that moment!" ”

Zhou Zhenwei twisted his eyebrows and thought slightly, and said with a deep sigh: "I have a favorite person in my heart, and I have no contact with Miss Fang Jia when I stop watching the lanterns on the Shangyuan Festival!" Zhenwei just wanted to ask the eldest aunt, why didn't you know me when she went to propose? ”

The eldest lady was speechless for a while, and muttered: "Since you came back from the New Year's Festival, except for watching the lanterns with Miss Fang, I have never seen you have anything to do with the girl next to you, but this is Peiyu and Pazi, I always thought it was given by Miss Fang." I thought it was her! ”

The old lady lowered her face and said, "What a self-righteous thing! I usually thought you were a reliable worker, but it turned out to be the worst hearted. Engagement is such a big deal, how can you not discuss with Zhenwei and do it yourself? ”

The eldest lady also knelt down in front of the old lady with trepidation, and said with tears: "Zhenwei has no parents since he was a child, not only the old lady, you can rest assured that you love him, but the daughter-in-law treats him more attentively than she is herself." Now that Zhenwei has not married, he is looking forward to having someone in his room to warm him warmly, so that the old lady is at ease, and the daughter-in-law is also happy, isn't it? I have deliberately contacted the young lady of the Fang family a few times, and she is indeed a good-looking, good-charactered, and extremely educated person, and the matchmaker in her house who came to ask for relatives stepped on the threshold, and she never agreed, just waiting for us to go, where is this not worthy of Zhenwei? ”

"Why are you so confused, Rao is the young lady of the Fang family is so good, even if she is as noble as a dragon and a phoenix, what is the use of her grandson not liking?" The old lady turned to look at Zhou Zhenwei, his voice softened, and said: "Don't worry, grandson, you get up, you can't blame the aunt for this, you also have a place, that is, you have a sweetheart, even if she only says a few words, she will not think so confused." That Miss Fang sounds like a talented and good-looking person, either you are thinking about it, don't refuse in one go? ”

Zhou Zhenwei got up, stepped forward to help the eldest lady again, was silent for a moment, raised his eyes to look at the old lady, and his tone was resolute and firm: "Grandson doesn't need to think about it anymore, even if there is no one in his heart, and Miss Fang is even more unwilling and unwilling." ”

"But the Fang family's return gift has been received. This family affair has been counted as too much! The eldest lady was quite embarrassed to say: "If you take the liberty of withdrawing from your family, it will really damage the girl's reputation!" How else can she marry a good family? ”

"What the eldest aunt said is reasonable! Don't hurt people! Zhou Zhenwei already had an idea in his heart, and said: "It's better to trouble the eldest aunt and Aunt Li who is the matchmaker to go to the Fang family again, explain these reasons, and let the Fang family withdraw in the name of Zhenwei's unkindness." ”

"And what about my grandson's reputation?" The old lady frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "You are a fourth-grade official, if this happens, it will not affect the future of your career in the future." ”

"You can seek another career, but Zhenwei is unwilling to force this matter from the bottom of his heart. I also hope that my grandmother and aunt will be fulfilled! Then he touched his knees and knelt down and pleaded with sincerity.

"That's it!" The old lady felt tired for a while, a little tired, and sighed: "Just go according to your grandson's wishes!" Don't kneel, we always owe you! I'm going to crook for a while, I'm getting a headache from the noise, you go out and let Zhulan in! ”

Zhou Zhenwei finally breathed a sigh of relief, and heard that the old lady had the intention of driving people away, that is, he returned the gift with the eldest lady and left without mentioning it

Coming out of the old lady's room, Zhou Zhenwei took the aggrieved eldest lady and went to pick up Aunt Li, who was unknown, and personally sent it to the door of Fangfu.

Seeing them follow the little maid in, he immediately turned around and rode a high-headed white horse towards the direction of Chu Mansion.

The sky is overcast, the clouds are low, and the spring rain is thin but wet. His heart was also wet, and the pink face of the little boy in his heart was damp.

Zhou Zhenwei couldn't estimate whether the girl knew about it, he prayed in his heart that she didn't know, even if he wanted to know, he would wait until he had done it properly, and then he would coax her and hurt her, if she couldn't get angry, scold him a few words, even if he hit him a few times, as long as Xiao Qiao'er was relieved, he was always willing!

It was Chu Wu's little guy who came to open the door, he saw that it was Zhou Zhenwei, so he frowned and said nervously: "What is the matter with Lord Zhou?" ”

Zhou Zhenwei bowed and said, "I don't know if your young master is in the house?" I'm looking for him urgently! ”

"The young master went to the grain store, and he hasn't turned around yet! Please go to the grain store to find him! "After speaking, Chu Wu is about to close the door in a hurry!

Zhou Zhenwei's eyes were quick, he stepped forward and pressed his foot against the bottom of the door, and still said politely: "May I ask if your second lady is here?" I don't see her, you can help me with a word! ”

"The second lady is not here, she went to the palace with the master in the morning!" Seeing that Chu Wu answered sharply, not like perfunctory prevarication, Zhou Zhenwei breathed a sigh of relief, retreated his feet, thanked him, and was about to leave.

Chu Wu was a little unbearable, he admired this master from the bottom of his heart, but there were unforeseen circumstances, how could he be decent, this week, my lord, I was engaged to someone else?

finally looked at Zhou Zhenwei's back and shouted: "Lord Zhou will look for the young master in the future, and he will always be able to meet him when he goes to the grain store." And the adult is a betrothed person, so don't come to my second lady again! ”

Zhou Zhenwei's back stiffened, his whole body was shaken, his hands were tightly bent into fists, his heart was now as transparent as a mirror, and he was engaged to this oolong thing, I was afraid that the girl would already know!
