Chapter 104: Give up

Second Mrs. Shen waited until Qi Xin got off the ya, and couldn't wait to discuss with him.

"Master, the old lady plans to match Sister Zheng to Xiao Wu, what are you going to do?"

Qi Xin frowned and said: "He can't be famous, what kind of pro?" I'm not afraid of insulting other girls. ”

Mrs. Shen didn't feel that she had insulted Rong Zheng, but that she had wronged her son. She didn't approve of this marriage, so she wanted to discuss a way with her husband to get rid of Mrs. Lu's thoughts.

Mrs. Shen said again: "The fortune teller in the early years said that this child could not marry early, and it was not good to set it for him early. It's better to let him study hard for a few years, and it's not too late to have a fame. ”

Qi Xin agreed to this, nodded and said, "Since you have this idea, why did you go to the Rong family a few years ago and want the fourth girl from the Rong family to be your daughter-in-law?" ”

Mrs. Shen hurriedly distinguished: "Isn't it that it didn't work out?" ”

Here the couple discussed countermeasures. Old Madam Lu breathed a sigh of relief here, this was a matter in her heart for many years, and now that she has finally pierced the window paper, everything will be easy to do.

She discussed with the people around her: "This matter has to be settled, I don't think I should write a letter to Anyang's aunt to mention this matter." Anyway, he also knows about our family's little five, and he doesn't have anything to say if he thinks about it. ”

"Are you in a hurry, old lady?"

Mrs. Lu said: "What's there to hurry, Sister Zheng is about to be fourteen, and I think it's good to marry after the time, Xiao Wu is slightly older than her." I was relieved to settle down earlier. ”

Mama Gui thought of Mrs. Shen's reluctant face, and said, "I'm afraid that I have to worry about this matter again." The second wife seemed reluctant. ”

She thought about the fourth lady of the Rong family, after all, she was in the next room, where was her own good. I just saw that Sister Zheng was better than the four young ladies. ”

"But I don't know what Sister Zheng thinks, if she doesn't want to. Isn't it a grudge couple? ”

Mrs. Lu was silent now, and she had fought with Xiao Wu when Sister Zheng was naughty in the early years, but now they respect and love each other and get along very well. But what Sister Zheng thinks herself, she doesn't know. Although marriage is the order of parents, the words of the matchmaker. But the children have to be willing.

Mrs. Lu said: "We are as talented as Xiaowu, and we are willing to study. Temperament and gentleness. I think she likes it too. The two often talk and laugh in one place. It's good for me to look at it. ”

The next day, Mrs. Shen and Qi Xin came to Mrs. Lu's side to say hello. Old Madam Lu saw her son and greeted her casually. Before Mrs. Lu said that she was going to propose to Rongjiang, Qi Xin took the initiative to say, "Old lady." The son plans to send Xiao Wu to study at Bailu Academy. ”

Old Madam Lu was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Where is the White Deer Academy?" ”

Qi Xin said: "In Lushan, Jiangxi." ”

"So far away, you can bear to send your only son so far away?"

Qi Xin said: "Read 10,000 books and travel 10,000 miles." This kid should also go out and go through it to be successful. It doesn't matter if he goes out to see the world, he can't always live under our wing. ”

Everyone present was stunned. Especially the person concerned, Qi Jun, was extremely shocked, and his father mentioned it to him a few years ago. He was also willing to go out, but his mother was reluctant at that time, so why did she suddenly change her mind?

Old Madam Lu asked again: "How long will it take to come back from this trip?" ”

Qi Xin said: "Two years at most, one year at the least." ”

Old Madam Lu muttered something, but no one heard it clearly. She glanced at Mrs. Shen. Hurriedly asked: "Aren't you reluctant to Xiao Wu?" How can you do it? ”

Mrs. Shen buried her head and said: "My husband wants my wife to see, and if I think about it, what my husband said is right, and I will arrange it according to him." ”

"That's good. Since you've agreed to be a mother, I don't have much to say. While Xiao Wu has not left, he will settle his family affairs first. Dick. You write a letter to Anyang and propose to your uncle. ”

Rong Zheng sat there in a daze, she listened to her grandmother's words, she was stunned for a long time, it turned out that grandma was thinking like this, she used to only think it was a joke of her sisters, but she didn't expect it to be true. She glanced at Qi Jun, who was overjoyed, and her heart sank to the bottom.

No, she didn't marry Qi Jun in her last life, why is this life different? She remembered that Qi Jun married a woman surnamed Xu, and it was said that she was also the matchmaker of a colleague of her second uncle, so why did she talk about her? She instinctively noticed that the eyes in the room were focused on her, and when she looked up, she came into contact with the fierce gaze of her second aunt.

She stood up abruptly, walked up to Mrs. Lu, bowed her head and said, "Grandma, I'll go back to the room first." ”

Only then did Mrs. Lu realize how inconvenient Rong Zheng was here, and nodded, "You go down and rest." ”

Yun Xia hurriedly caught up with Rong Zheng's steps.

When she returned to the hugging mansion here, Yun Xia hurried to congratulate Rong Zheng: "Ah Zheng, congratulations on your happy event." ”

"What's the joy." Rong Zheng looked cold.

Yun Xia saw the indifference on Rong Zheng's face, and there was no trace of shyness, she felt very strange, and hurriedly asked, "Don't you like it?" ”

Rong Zheng bluntly expressed his intentions and said, "I don't like it." ”

"Ah, we all said that you and Fifth Brother are a couple. Why don't you want to? What's wrong with our Qi family, the old lady loves you so much. Fifth brother is not bad to you......"

"So what should I do about this?"

It was too sudden, and Rong Zheng didn't have time to think of any way to deal with it. She is reluctant to marry Qi Jun, in her opinion, although Qi Jun looks good and has a gentle temperament, he is not necessarily a good match.

Mrs. Lu sent away the second family of three, she just got angry and looked a little irritable. Xiuzhu and the others didn't dare to step forward.

Old Madam Lu lay down for a while, and then called Xiuzhu: "You go and see what Sister Zheng is doing." ”

Xiuzhu went immediately, and came back after a while, saying, "Old lady, Miss Biao is crying." ”

"Cry, why is she crying?" When Mrs. Lu heard that her precious granddaughter had been wronged, she couldn't sit still anymore. Hurriedly said that he wanted to get up, and the maid hurried to help.

Old Madam Lu said, "I'll go over and take a look at her." ”

Rong Zheng sat under the window with tears in his eyes, and when he heard his grandmother coming, he hurriedly got up and went out.

Mrs. Lu saw that her eyes were red, and there were tears on her face. His heart tightened, and he said softly with concern: "My little liver, what are you doing?" ”

Rong Zheng felt the care of his grandmother, and even more uncontrollably cried in the arms of Mrs. Lu, crying so much that her liver and intestines were broken. Mrs. Lu touched Rong Zheng's hair lovingly, and said lovingly: "My good sister Zheng, where are you wronged." You and me. ”

Long. Rong Zheng raised Ying Ying's teary eyes and said, "Grandma, I don't want to marry the fifth brother!" ”

Old Madam Lu was extremely surprised, and hurriedly asked, "What." Are you complaining that grandma ordered the mandarin duck match? ”

Rong Zheng said: "I know that grandma feels sorry for me. But grandma has to ask me what I mean. ”

"Silly boy, don't you think your fifth brother is not good enough?"

"He's fine, it's just that I don't want to marry him."

"Alright. Grandma doesn't know what you're thinking, so she wants to form this family affair indiscriminately. Thinking that in the future, your grandfather's house will be your in-law's family. Your second aunt will pity you somewhat. Besides, I think that Xiao Wu's child treats you very well, so I want to put you together. Looks like I'm old and confused. I can't recognize the shape in front of me. Make you all resent me. If you don't marry, don't marry. ”

Rong Zheng also prepared a lot of things to say to her grandmother, but she didn't expect her grandmother to agree to her request so easily, and she couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

"Don't cry. The woman sheds two tears, which is a golden bean, and it is worthless if she cries too much. Mrs. Lu took a handkerchief and wiped Rong Zheng's tears.

This turmoil has only been circulating in the Qi family for two days. It disappeared immediately. Qi Jun has already set off for Jiangxi early next month.

In the blink of an eye, it was the twenty-third day.

The Qi family, which has always been low-key and silent, has not posted such a wide post to invite people to come to the scene for several years. Mrs. Lu was in good spirits this day and got up early in the morning. Rong Zheng also rushed over early to serve Mrs. Lu. even took over the work from the maid's hands. personally took a comb to help Mrs. Lu comb her hair, and helped to put on a headdress.

Mrs. Lu said, "There are maids. I don't need you. ”

Rong Zheng smiled: "They either give you less like this or less like that." Grandma, let me serve you today. ”

She neatly combed Mrs. Lu into a bun, and took a set of emerald hairpins in the box to wear for her grandmother. and asked Mrs. Lu to wear the jujube-colored gown that she had sewn with her own hands.

Mrs. Lu patted Rong Zheng's hand with satisfaction, and sighed: "You kid, it's not in vain that I feel sorry for you." Sure enough, it's good. She waited for Rong Zheng to change her gown for her. Rong Zheng felt that her neck was empty, and helped her put on a pearl necklace and a mutton fat white jade bracelet on her wrist.

Rong Zheng finally cleaned up for Mrs. Lu, and Xiuzhu praised beside her: "In the end, Miss Biao is careful." The old lady looks five years younger today. ”

Old Madam Lu smiled: "What is five years younger, I want to be ten years younger." This dress really fits, it's hard for you to have this heart, I like it very much. I'll give you two things when I go back. ”

Rong Zheng only pursed his lips and smiled. Old Madam Lu saw that Rong Zheng was dressed in homely clothes, and her hair was only tied to Su'er, so she frowned and said, "You kid only cares about me, but you don't dress up well." Get dressed and come to me. Today you will sit next to me. ”

Rong Zheng replied, and walked to the outside room with Mrs. Lu in his arms.

Mrs. Ren San and Mrs. Shen Er have already come over.

Seeing that Mrs. Lu was dressed up today, Mrs. Ren San hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Today, the old lady looks good and looks young." ”

Old Madam Lu smiled: "Then you see if I am ten years younger?" ”

Mrs. Ren San happily echoed two sentences.

Old Madam Lu pointed to her clothes and said, "In the past, you only blamed me for favoring her, but you didn't know that she was worthy of distress. This kid made this garment to honor me, and I'm going to wear it out today to show off in front of everyone. ”

Because of Qi Jun's matter, Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Shen's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both had pimples in their hearts, although Mrs. Shen still came to the morning and dusk on time every day, but after all, the face and heart did not match, and the two of them just maintained the etiquette on the surface. Old Mrs. Lu didn't talk to her either, and Second Mrs. Shen was a wooden man on the side for a while, so she said that she would go to Chunxuan Hall to help.

Mrs. Lu urged Rong Zheng to go back to the room to clean up quickly, and did not forget to tell her: "Dress up well, don't embarrass me." ”

Mrs. Ren San said with a smile: "My niece is a flower-like character, and she is young, no matter how she dresses, she is good, so why will she lose the face of the old lady." ”

Mrs. Lu said: "Dressing up decently is also a sign of respect for others." ”

When Mrs. Ren heard this, she hurriedly asked, "Is it okay for the old lady to look at me?" ”

Mrs. Lu glanced at it and saw that Mrs. Ren was wearing a short jacket embroidered with turmeric and folding flowers, and eight Hunan skirts in lake green. Wearing a butterfly bun and a head inlaid with gold and treasures. Mrs. Ren San's skin is fair, and she stands out in any color of clothes, and she nodded: "It's not bad." ”

Old Man Lu turned around and asked Xiuzhu to send her a pair of golden opal earrings and a string of beeswax necklaces she was holding. Tell Rong Zheng to wear these to meet her.

Mrs. Ren was dumbfounded. How many treasures does this old lady have that she hasn't seen the sky? The red coral head in the past is now opal and beeswax, all of which are biased towards the Rong Zheng. Yun Xia in front of her is also the granddaughter of the old woman, this partiality is too unreasonable.

After half an hour, Rong Zheng came.

Mrs. Ren San raised her eyes, but saw Rong Zheng combing a hanging bun, wearing a pearl headband, and two pretty spring flowers on the sideburns. A pair of opal pendants on his ears, and a necklace of beeswax around his neck. The silk gown with red flowers on a white background reveals a garnet-red plain silk skirt. There is no gold or silver, but there is a low-key luxury.

Old Madam Lu nodded with great satisfaction and said, "This is not bad. ”

Mrs. Ren and Rong Zheng helped one by one, and asked Mrs. Lu to go to Chunxuan Hall.

Mrs. Ren said secretly, her second sister-in-law didn't succeed. With the old lady's preference for Rong Zheng, the old lady will return to the west in the future, and she is afraid that she will have to give her some things. It's not good to have such a daughter-in-law? There is a little fourth in front of her, and she is a concubine, and Mrs. Lu looks down on her.

Chunxuan Hall is in a courtyard in the northeast corner of the Qi family's courtyard, which was cleaned up two days ago. Wu looked at the servants who had already set up the tables and chairs. There were about twenty seats. Each table is separated by a small screen on four sides, and there are a few in front of it, or two, and there are all sweet white tea sets on the table, as well as those bonsai purchased from the Jiang family.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu bowed her head and said, "I have some intentions, it's not bad." It's just that we don't have so many small screens in our house, right? ”

Wu smiled: "I borrowed some from other places, and I just got it together." This is still Sister Rong's idea. ”

Old Madam Lu smiled with satisfaction: "I have a delicate and clear mind. (To be continued.) )
