Regarding his marriage, Chu Lingfeng, like all the girls in the boudoir, had thought a lot.

But unlike other girls, Chu Lingfeng never had any optimistic illusions.

The Chu family has practiced medicine for generations, and has been in Linchuan for a hundred years, so it can be regarded as a profound family. Although it cannot be said that it is rich compared to the merchants, and it has no power compared with the official family, it is also a wealthy family.

The daughter of such a family is naturally a little worse to marry the richest man like the Xue family. But there is no problem at all with marrying a good family, most of the young talents in Linchuan can be picked at will, not to mention that although Chu Lingfeng does not say that the country is beautiful and fragrant, he is also born beautiful, and he has no worries about marrying.

But Chu Lingfeng is seventeen this year, in the Great Zhou, girls usually set up a family affair when they are thirteen or fourteen years old, sixteen or seventeen years old, most of them have already married women, and there are several younger sisters one or two years younger under Chu Lingfeng, all of whom have already married, and those who have not been married have already been engaged, only she is still waiting for the boudoir.

Because Chu Lingfeng does not have a good mother, nor does he have a good reputation.

Thinking of all this, the corners of Chu Lingfeng's mouth pulled out a wry smile: "Even if Xue Mingyang suffers from a hidden disease, it is also the richest man in Linchuan, not to mention that he is still the eldest young master, and those who want to marry into the Xue family must be queuing up to break their heads......"

Xiao Tian sneered and interrupted Chu Lingfeng's words: "Miss, you don't want to think about it, if marrying Xue Mingyang is a good thing, can it still be your turn?" The eldest lady, the second lady, the third lady, don't you rush forward with your head broken? ”

Xiao Tian pursed her lips, she really didn't want to talk about the master behind her back, but she couldn't help it.

"When I went to inquire about the news, I secretly listened to them talk about this." Xiao Tian followed Chu Lingfeng and walked back, and said: "It is said that this Xue Dashao just has an empty title, and he can't manage the business at all, and his mother has no status in the mansion, so he can't speak." They said, now Master Xue is still there, so Xue Dashao still has a place to eat and live, and if Master Xue is not there in the future, this Xue Dashao may have to go out to ask for food. ”

Of course, this is a bit exaggerated, the richest man in Linchuan is not favored, and the silver between his fingers is enough for ordinary people to live a lifetime, but since it is exaggerated to this point, it is true that he will not be favored.

Xiao Tian was a little indignant, but it made Chu Lingfeng look at it and want to laugh, this girl has always been straight, speaking of it, she felt strange, how did she survive in such a complicated family until now.

"Miss, are you still laughing?" Xiao Tian was a little anxious: "Why are you laughing, what can I do now?" ”

"What can I do?" Chu Lingfeng said lightly: "Marriage events have always been the words of the matchmaker at the behest of my parents, is there still room for me to speak?" Even if I disagree, no one will pay attention. ”

"Speaking of which." Chu Lingfeng hooked the corners of his lips: "Even if Young Master Xue suffers from a hidden disease and has no status in the family, I am also high." In my father's heart, I must think that I have hit a lot of luck, but then again, it is lucky to be able to marry the Xue family, but a daughter who can't marry is not worth anything. ”

In ten years, the ignorant girls have been slim. And in ten years, the young lady in the backyard of the deep house without the protection of her mother, but her heart has been sharpened and indestructible.

Listening to Chu Lingfeng's words, Xiao Tian was silent for a while, and her heart was extremely bitter. Then he thought about it and said with some hesitation: "Miss, will you marry then?" Otherwise, let's go secretly, and no matter what happens, I'll support you anyway. ”

"What do you think it's so easy to get out? Away from home, life outside is better? Chu Lingfeng thought about the man he saw just now, and said, "Marry, why don't you marry?" ”

"This is a lifelong event, Miss must think about it carefully." Xiao Tian's brows furrowed tightly: "What if this Xue Mingyang is a wreck, if he is not in good health and has a bad temper, what if the Xue family is rich and looks down on people......"

"Alright." Chu Lingfeng grabbed Xiao Tian's shoulder, turned around and walked side by side: "Don't worry too much, do you remember what Master said last time he came to see me, he said, my luck is starting to improve." The rumors may not be true, maybe Xue Mingyang is not so bad, maybe he is a talented person......"

Although it was only one side and he didn't say a word, Xue Mingyang gave him a good impression. I didn't have time to diagnose his pulse, but just looking at his complexion didn't look like he had been sick for many years, as for whether he was a nest or not, in Granny Li's words, she was willing to help poor people she didn't know, at least he wasn't a bad person.

Hurriedly returning home, Chu Lingfeng said hello to the gardener at the back door, and avoided people and returned to his Biqing Garden.

Although the marriage will not let her call the shots, as one of the protagonists, she still has to tell her. Moreover, some people who have always looked at her unpleasantly, and they will find some trouble when they have nothing to do on weekdays, but this time, they will naturally not let go of the great opportunity.

Sure enough, Chu Lingfeng had just sat down in the house, and before he finished drinking a cup of tea, he heard a series of footsteps outside.

"It must be the eldest lady, they came to see the joke." Xiao Tian looked out of the door, with a depressed face: "Every time I look at the eldest lady's face, I don't even want to eat at night." ”

Xiao Tian's disgusted look made Chu Lingfeng couldn't help but smile: "Don't worry, this time, not only will I want them to not be able to eat, but also to make them unable to sleep." ”

Although he doesn't have the love of his father and mother, and he can't do big things by himself, Chu Lingfeng hasn't been angry for some years. She may be an unappreciated existence in the Chu family, but after all, she is a righteous young lady, even if other ladies and ladies look at her unpleasantly, she will have to live on the big side.

The Chu family is now ostensibly in charge of Chu Lingfeng's grandfather, Chu Shan. is really in charge of big and small things, but it is his eldest son Chu Hongliang who is in the prime of life. But in any case, unless the affairs of the back house reach a certain level, the master of the house will not take care of it.

And after so many years, Chu Lingfeng understands a truth very well, she is not welcome at home, which has nothing to do with her attitude towards people. She bows her head every day and behaves as a man, but she is excluded by others. Keep your head held high, and the same is true. As long as you pay attention to the boundaries of proportion, no one can help her.

Putting down the teacup, Chu Lingfeng straightened the clothes he had just changed into, got up and went out.

A gust of fragrant wind hit, and Chu Lingfeng helplessly covered his nose with a handkerchief. As a girl, she also likes rouge gouache, but it is so thick that it is smoky, and she can't stand it.

As the incense wind hit people, the ring dingdong, and the group entered Chu Lingfeng's courtyard in a mighty way.

Although Chu Hongliang is a good doctor, he is not a dedicated doctor, so like ordinary men, not to mention a group of wives and concubines, there is also a main room, two side rooms, and two aunts. Now the people who came to the courtyard to find Chu Lingfeng were Li Shuhua and the second lady Fan Ziyao, who were each followed by two maids, and Fan Ziyao was also followed by her youngest daughter Chu Lingxia.

"Eldest mother, second mother, third sister." Chu Lingfeng first turned his head and asked the maid to make tea, and then said, "What is a good day today, at this time, do you have time to come to me?" ”

"It's not a good day, it's a good day." Although Li Shuhua is nearly forty this year, because of proper maintenance, her skin looks smooth, as if she is in her early thirties.

"yes, how come I don't know, what day it is?" Chu Lingfeng looked at the few people in front of him and only felt that it was extremely eye-catching, but his face was full of smiles. If it is said that everyone in the business and officialdom wears a mask, then the backyard of the house is even more so, with honey and swords, and intrigue. Everyone knows what is under each other's smiling face, but no one debunks.

"Oh, yes, sister, we were careless." Fan Ziyao said: "Lingfeng has been in his room all the time, and he may not know this good news yet." ”

Li Shuhua sang and harmonized with her: "I forgot to tell you, Lingfeng, a great joy, just now the Xue family sent someone to propose to you for their family's eldest young master, Xue Mingyang." ”

"yes." Fan Ziyao looked like a mother: "I have always said that Lingfeng is a blessed girl, even if she is not young, there is no need to worry." Look at it, look at it, I'm right, the Xue family came to the door to propose, this has to be something that makes the girls in Linchuan City jealous. ”

Although Tian'er has been in the Chu family for more than ten years and is used to seeing this meeting, thinking about the two of them talking about this matter sarcastically just now, and looking at the sincere face of the smile now, she still feels that she can't eat dinner.

Chu Lingfeng sneered in his heart, took a sip of tea, and seemed to be very surprised and a little hesitant and said, "Auntie, Er Niang, the Xue family you are talking about...... Is it from Linchuan, the Xue family. ”

"How many Xue families are there in Linchuan?" Li Shuhua covered her lips with a handkerchief and smiled: "Isn't it the Xue family, the richest man in Jiangnan." The eldest son of the Xue family, the eldest son of the serious grandson, is twenty this year, and it is said that he is a talent, dignified in appearance, and with our spiritual style, it is a talented woman who is born as a pair. ”

Sounds good, Chu Lingfeng bowed his head and smiled at the right time, showing a little bit of the reserve and grace of his daughter in the boudoir.

Others Chu Lingfeng said that he didn't understand, but Chu Lingxia, the third sister beside Fan Ziyao, couldn't understand it better.

Because in the year Chu Lingxia was born, everything went smoothly in the Chu family, and Chu Hongliang even cured several seriously ill patients in a row, so he felt that Chu Lingxia was the lucky star of the Chu family, and he was very spoiled by her, naturally, and he spoiled her arrogant and domineering temperament, and no one felt inferior to her.

And the Chu family, who had a little bit of eyes, also followed the whiskers, only Chu Lingfeng, who was not fake to her, and was too lazy to perfunctory. Naturally, she was very unhappy when she saw Chu Lingfeng, and once she got the opportunity, she sneered.

Now, seeing that Chu Lingfeng heard that she was going to marry into the Xue family, when she was happy for her good marriage, she naturally wanted to come out and pour a basin of cold water.

She came with this trip, not to give Chu Lingfeng good news, but to see her unlucky.
