Chapter 145: Domineering Side Leak
Shangshu Mansion is full of lights and beams of joy, and those who come to congratulate know that today is the day of the wedding of Shangshu Chenghu of the Ministry of War. He is a soldier who has worked the battlefield, but few people know which girl he wants to marry.
After several years of hard work, Xiaoqing has already taken charge of himself, he is responsible for watching the reception at the door and the gift list of guests, and Steward Chen is also busy, listing all kinds of details on the wedding.
Chen Jia and her mother gathered the reception of the female guests. The Duchess of Guo, that is, Jiang Youchun's mother, also came over early in the morning and helped entertain the official wives who came to congratulate in the backyard.
Because Cheng Mei is Cheng Zhen's younger sister, she is also quite popular, and she chatted with some officials, wives and ladies of the Qin family.
Ruoyun ran around with Cheng Dong, unable to drive away like a fly.
"Princess, the county lord of benevolence called you to go over and sit." Even her palace maid Xiao'e can't stand it anymore, where is this still like a princess?
"Oh, go over immediately, Cheng Dong, when will you go to my father to propose marriage? Chen Jia said, you saints and countries are all men who go to women's houses to propose, and I won't kiss you casually in the future, don't worry!" Ruoyun smiled and chattered, regardless of what Cheng Dong's face had turned black.
"Cheng Dong, hurry up and help greet Lord Yang and Lord Sun, what's the matter with handing over everyone to Lord Hou to greet him?" Cheng Dazhuang saw that Cheng Dong had been talking to a girl, and he was angry.
"It's coming, it's coming." Cheng Dong was pardoned and hurriedly ran over.
"Cheng Dong, do you remember?" Ruoyun chased after him again, but saw that Cheng Dong didn't answer. Looking back at Cheng Dazhuang again, she knew that this was Cheng Dong's father. Hurriedly smiled sweetly, "Dad, my daughter-in-law will greet you." ”
"What did you say?" Cheng Dazhuang has been busy in the past few years. It's just that this girl is Chen Jia's friend, how did she become a daughter-in-law?
"Cheng Dong is about to propose to my father, I will be yours, second, son, daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law. I'm going to accompany Chen Jia to greet the guests, Dad, you're busy. After Ruoyun finished speaking, Shi Shiran walked towards Chen Jia.
Poor Xiao'e was beside her, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.
"Cheng Dong?" Cheng Dazhuang was puzzled, but he was too busy now, so he hurried to greet the guests.
"Mrs. Cheng is really blessed. Lord Shangshu is young and promising, and the second son has a bright future. I heard that the second son, Cheng Dong, is not yet married, and there is a girl in my mother's family who happens to be the same age as him. She looks as beautiful as a flower, and her female red is good. Does Mrs. Cheng want to look at each other and set up a family affair for the second son as soon as possible? "It turned out to be Wu Taibao's wife, and it seems that she wants to have a relationship with the Cheng family. The homework was well done.
Mrs. Wu smiled. Cheng Dong is still on the edge of Yuancheng, and now he is married, isn't it delaying the girl. It's better to wait for him to return to Beijing before making plans. Chen politely rejected Mrs. Wu.
"Chen Jia, is she going to tell Cheng Dong about her daughter-in-law?" Ruoyun didn't react when he just sat down, but he understood a little when he heard Chen's politeness.
"Princess, didn't my mother refuse?" Chen Jia replied quietly. They were all sitting at the same table, and Chen Jia didn't want to be rude.
"That's not good, Cheng Dong belongs to this princess. How can it be thought by others? Ruoyun said and stood up excitedly. Her undisguised voice made the entire courtyard suddenly silent.
"Ruoyun, sit down." Chen Jia was a loss of face. How can a girl's family be in a hurry to be someone's daughter-in-law?
"Who is this girl?" Mrs. Wu was a little displeased.
"This palace is the fifth princess Ruoyun of Li Shengguo, and Cheng Dong will be the future concubine of this palace." Ruoyun said calmly!
An inexplicable respect arises. Chen Jia suddenly felt that Ruoyun was much braver than herself in the face of love.
"It turns out that the second son has already decided on a family affair, and he is still a princess of another country, so why should Mrs. Cheng hide it?" Mrs. Wu sneered unceremoniously.
"Chen Jia, what's going on?" Chen was at a loss. The Duchess was also at a loss.
"......" Chen Jia was even more speechless, she really wanted to run away.
"Hongu has already made it very clear! Don't you all understand? ”
"The customs of various countries are different, Li Shengguo women are as educated as men, and their marriage is autonomous, and the fifth princess only met my second brother yesterday, but she should have taken a fancy to my second brother." Chen Jia silently hoped that the fifth princess would continue to tease, and don't blame herself for not helping her.
"I see, so the two of them haven't decided on a relationship yet?" The Duchess also came back to her senses.
"So what, anyway, Cheng Dong will definitely become the concubine of this palace." Ruoyun muttered casually, picked up a cup of tea and drank it slowly.
"Don't say that, princess, my son won't go to another country to be a colt." Chen also got serious.
"Why?"
"As a military attaché, my son is his duty to protect his family and defend the country, how can he go to another country to be a concubine?" Chen's words are very reasonable, and this is what Chen Jia said when he first began to teach his brothers the art of war.
"Then it's better not to go."
Everyone just breathed a sigh of relief when they heard it, and Ruoyun said another sentence if it was not shocking. "Just marry this palace."
"This ......," Chen was also dumbfounded. The five princesses are the princesses of a country, how can marriage be child's play, let your father and queen mother arrange it for you! ”
"The father and queen mother of this palace love this palace the most. Bengong immediately repaired a letter and asked him to tell the emperor of Shenghe that he would leave Bengong in Shenghe and marry Cheng Dong. ”
"Mother, let's talk, I'll take Ruoyun around." Chen Jia pulled Ruoyun to get up and leave, and sat down again, I was afraid that Cheng Dong and Ruoyun Ruoyun Ruoyun would be noisy.
"Alas, Mrs. Cheng doesn't have to worry, the fifth princess is like a child, maybe she will forget about it in two days." The Duchess hurriedly comforted the Chen family.
"I hope so."
"It's better for Mrs. Cheng to hurry up and set up a family affair for Cheng Dong, the fifth princess knows that Cheng Dong has made a marriage, and she will definitely die." Mrs. Wu also knew that she had misunderstood the Chen family just now, she knew that the fifth princess was wishful thinking, and she began to match her niece again.
"We'll talk about that later." Chan bowed his hand, apparently not interested.
Cheng Mei wanted to ask Chen Jia what kind of person she was, as well as the phoenix tail qin and the weird characters, but Chen Jia always had someone around her, and she never had the opportunity to talk to Chen Jia alone. She was depressed in her heart, so she had to talk to the people next to her absentmindedly, and she didn't even see her mother arrive.
"Cheng Mei, I'm so happy!" Xiao Shen and Cheng Erniu also came from Changxian County to congratulate Cheng Hu, but they were delayed due to something and came late.
When Xiao Shen saw Cheng Mei in the backyard, he hurriedly pulled Cheng Mei and said hello. Regardless of the fact that there were other official wives and young ladies on the table, the Qin family was also directly ignored by her.
"Mother, what's wrong with you, today is Brother Cheng Hu's big joy, why are you so excited?"
"You and Cheng Ying were favored by the Plains Waiting Master and said that they wanted to marry your sisters. The dowry gifts have been sent, Cheng Ying is your wife, you are your wife, and you enter the door together, regardless of each other. Xiao Shen said happily, spitting was flying, and Cheng Mei's heart began to mess up.
The people at the table were all happy when they heard it, but there were still many people who pointed their fingers at each other.
Originally, Cheng Mei was still thinking about whether she could let Cheng Ying marry and find another lover by herself, but she heard that some brothels had a way to make a broken woman look like a perfect woman for the first time, so she wanted to find a way to buy that method. Intend to start a new life. How did she know that Xiao Shen's shouting like this made her have no way out at all. (To be continued......)
