Early the next morning, the Wenchang Mansion ushered in a distinguished guest, it was the Duchess of the Weiguo Mansion, and now the three major Guogong Mansions, the Youguo Mansion, the Yu Guogong Mansion, the Weiguo Mansion, among which the Youguo Mansion and the Weiguo Mansion are all military generals, but the Youguo Mansion is responsible for the defense of the Beijing Acropolis, and the Weiguo Mansion guards the southern frontier defense, and now the Weiguo Mansion is mostly stationed in the southern Xinjiang fortress, and there is only a dry female dependents and less than ten years old children left in the house, and they are very low-key in Kyoto, and never show up if necessary, Today, the Duchess of Weiguo actually came to the Wenchang Marquis Mansion, and the old lady was sincerely afraid to welcome her outside the second gate.
Duchess Weiguo is about fifty, wearing a slightly old-fashioned gown with constant head tattoos, tall and thin, at first glance is a shrewd and capable person, the old lady does not dare to hold it up, and let her grandchildren kowtow to the Duchess of Fuguo after a few words of greeting, and the Duchess of Fuguo gave the meeting gifts one by one, and the concubines are distinct, and specially instructed Shu Moci to come and take a closer look for a long time, and the corners of her lips loosened, "Sure enough, he is a clever child, and people like it when they look at it."
As he spoke, he withdrew the mutton fat jade bracelet on his wrist and put it on Shu Moci's hand, "Good boy, wear it stubbornly, if you don't like it, you will reward it to your subordinates."
Shu Moci humbly thanked him, Duchess Weiguo asked a few more words, the old lady was busy knowing the opportunity to let the juniors retreat, Duchess Weiguo took a sip of tea, and said with a smile, "Congratulations to the old lady, I came to the door this time to be entrusted by the Marquis of Anping to propose to the eldest girl in the house for the prince of the Marquis of Anping, I have seen both children, and the talented woman is really a good match."
There has been no news since Mrs. Anping Hou came last time, and the old lady thought that this family was pro-yellow, but she didn't expect that Anping Marquis Mansion actually asked the Duchess of Weiguo to come to the door to propose marriage, which shows the importance of this family business, and said happily, "The children are blessed, and the Duchess of the Labor Kingdom asked automatically, but it is not broken?" ”
The two politely exchanged a few words, the Duchess of Weiguo left Sun Wenmao's Geng post to say goodbye and left, the practice in Beijing, the man left the Geng post first, in order to show the sincerity of the marriage, and the woman was the noble and reserved of the cousin's daughter's family, and would accept the Geng post and say that it would be considered for a while, and then the man would send the matchmaker to the door to say yes, and then hand over the woman's Geng post to the matchmaker to the man, so that a family can be regarded as preliminarily decided.
The old lady took Sun Wenmao's Geng post with a complicated expression, "I didn't expect that girl to be a creative prince of the Marquis of Anping, and she also invited the Duchess of Weiguo to come to the door to say goodbye, and I don't know what kind of blessings she cultivated in her previous life."
Mother Lin chanted the Buddha repeatedly, "No, marry a family with the Marquis of Anping, in the future, who in this capital will dare to look down on our Hou Mansion, and the fourth, seventh, and eighth masters will also have a good future in the future!" ”
The old lady frowned, "According to that girl's temperament, if she marries such a good family, I am afraid that she will deal with the Zhong family even more unscrupulously in the future, how can she bring Brother Huan'er with her?" ”
Mother Lin looked at her face carefully, "The old slave said a lot, the eldest girl is married highly, and the days of relying on her mother's family are still ahead, the eldest girl is smart, but she will not dig her own grave."
The old lady's brows furrowed even deeper, and she opened her mouth for a while, "Send someone to wait outside, and the Hou Ye will invite you to Rong'an Hall as soon as you get out of the yamen, go to the treasury to find a few good materials for her, and then ask the embroidery lady to come into the house and sew a few new clothes for her."
Mother Lin knew that this was to show her kindness, so she sighed secretly in her heart, and retreated respectfully.
Shu Di made a vigorous fuss last time, but he didn't want to hand the fold to the emperor but he didn't allow it, Shu Di had been messing around in the Hanlin Academy all his life, and he didn't make any practical contributions, so he couldn't figure out why the emperor would refute his fold, so he had to just give up and go to the old day.
Shu Di went back to the Hou Mansion on a mission and it was sunset, so he didn't bother to change his clothes and entered Rong'an Hall, and said as soon as he entered the door, "Old lady, today Wen Shoufu proposed to Mo Ci for the Wen family's thirteen langs, I have already answered, this is the thirteen lang's Geng post, the Wen family will send a matchmaker to the door in a few days, and then I will have to bother the old lady."
The old lady paused when she went to get the teacup, and looked at Shu Di in disbelief, "Who are you talking about?" Wen Shisanlang? ”
Shu Di was obviously in a good mood, and there was a little more smile on his always indifferent face, "It's the thirteenth lang of the Wen family, Wen Shoufu personally mentioned it to me this morning, and the Geng post was also handed over to me by Wen Shoufu himself."
Shu Di thought of the solemn and emotional appearance when the old Shoufu mentioned it to him, his fair face was full of brilliance, Wen Shuliu was from a famous family, handsome and talented, and more importantly, his unique position in the Wen family, Mo quit marrying him, and he would never be as difficult as marrying into other high-ranking families.
The old lady looked at Shu Di solemnly, the nasolabial folds at the corners of her mouth became more profound, and she said in a deep voice, "Today, the Duchess of Weiguo personally came to the door to propose marriage to the eldest girl for the prince of the Marquis of Anping, and I received the Geng post of the prince of the Marquis of Anping."
Shu Di was stunned for a moment, and his expression slowly turned cold, "The old lady must not have agreed yet, right?" ”
"According to the rules, the woman always has to think about it for a month or so before answering-"
"That's good, I've already responded to Wen Shoufu, and the Geng post of the Hou Mansion of Anping will be returned, and when the time comes, it will be said that I picked up the Geng post of the Wen Mansion outside, and I didn't have time to tell you for a while."
"The Anping Marquis Mansion is the queen's mother's house, the prince's foreign family, don't quit and go to the Anping Marquis Mansion than marry to the Wen Mansion."
"In terms of talents, the Hou Shizi of Anping is less than half of the Thirteen Langs, so he will set the Wen family."
The old lady wanted to say more, Shu Di interrupted her coldly, "I am in charge of Mo Ci's marriage, the old lady does not agree, and Mo Ci does not lack the old lady's share of the box."
The old lady raised her hand angrily and threw the teacup on the small table towards Shu Di, the teacup smashed into Shu Di's heart, the tea and tea spilled all over his body, Shu Di hung his head, and his eyelids didn't lift.
The old lady gasped angrily, "Rebel, you kneel down for me!" ”
Shu Di knelt down slowly, and Mother Lin was busy stroking the old lady's back, "Don't be angry, old lady, if you have something to say."
The old lady gasped for breath, and her voice was slightly choked, "Have something to say?" Is he a good talker? I haven't said anything yet, and he's disobeying me like that! I worked hard to pull him to grow up, but I raised an enemy! After so many years, what am I drawing! ”
Mother Lin was really angry when she saw this, and she was busy making Shu Di soften her eyes, not wanting Shu Di to just kneel with her head down and not even look at it, Mother Lin stomped her feet in a hurry.
The old lady's wheezing voice gradually calmed down, and Mother Lin looked at the old lady's face and said in a low voice, "Master Hou will go back first, and come back tomorrow to greet the old lady."
Shu Di slowly stood up, "Please also ask the old lady to give me the Geng post of the Sun Mansion, and I will return it to the Sun Mansion."
He didn't believe in himself, for fear that he would send his daughter to the wolf's den! The old lady's anger that had just come down surged into her heart again, staring at Shu Di and unable to say a word, Shu Di pulled the corners of her mouth on her face, like laughing and crying, "Old lady, Mo Ci is always the blood of the Shu family, and I hope that the old lady will raise her noble hand."
The old lady raised her voice sharply, "That wild seed—"
Mother Lin knelt down suddenly, knocking her head, "Old lady be cautious, old lady be cautious!" ”
The old lady came back to her senses, regretted her words, but she couldn't pull her face, she only looked at her eldest son gloomily, Shu Di was expressionless, "Please hand over the Geng post of the Anping Marquis Mansion."
The old lady only felt that her heart and lungs were dry with anger, and she couldn't even move, Shu Di looked at the old lady's royal blue silk enamel flower dressing box in her hand, the expensive things that were needed were put in there by the old lady, and the tight dressing box that was locked on weekdays was not locked at this time, the Geng post must be inside, just now the old lady was ready to say to him about the marriage proposal in the Anping Hou Mansion, and she must have shown him the Geng post so it was not locked.
Shu Di stepped forward and snatched the dresser, it was easy to find a red Geng post at the bottom, after seeing the name clearly, he put the dresser back in place and turned around and left, the old lady didn't expect him to dare to do it without permission, shocked that he couldn't stop him at all, watching him out of the room, he screamed violently for a long time, and a cloudy tear rolled down his eyes, what kind of evil obstacle did she raise! What is her hard work for so many years!
