Chapter 392: Ruthless
Luo Miaoke glanced at Ye Qinglan deeply, and then lowered her head again.
Ye Qinglan was inexplicably watched. She and Luo Miaoke have only had a one-sided relationship, and they haven't even spoken a word. What happened to Luo Miaoke's eyes just now? I guess I've heard some rumors......
Along the way, Ye Qinglan was a little careless. Cui Wan talked to her, and seeing that she was always absent-minded, she couldn't help but ask, "Why are you thinking so engrossed?" ”
Ye Qinglan calmed down and responded with a smile: "I'm thinking, the bride is dignified and beautiful, and Second Brother Cui is really blessed." ”
Cui Wan smiled and said nothing. No one knows Cui Yu's mind better than her. Regarding this family matter, Cui Yu rejected it from the bottom of his heart. Although he had to obey his parents' instructions to marry Luo Miaoke, he didn't forget Ye Qinglan in his heart......
A total of 20 seats were held for the wedding banquet, with the male guests in the main hall and the female relatives in the flower hall. Familiar people sit together, talk and laugh, and it is also very lively. Ye Qinglan and Ye Qingrou and Ye Qingfu sat at the same table, but Cui Wan had to accompany the He family to greet the guests. simply left Sister Qiao by Ye Qinglan's side.
Ye Qingfu didn't have the patience to talk to Sister Qiao'er, so she twisted her head to the side and whispered and laughed with Ye Qingrou. Ye Qinglan listened to Sister Qiao'er very patiently, and fed her personally, and when Sister Qiao'er was full, she wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.
Therefore, it is natural that Sister Qiao likes Ye Qinglan's aunt the most.
At the table next door, there was a woman who had been paying attention to Ye Qinglan's every move, and when she saw Ye Qinglan gently and patiently feeding Sister Qiao'er to eat, she couldn't help but nod secretly.
Thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls are the age of beauty-loving, most girls at this age are impetuous, and there are very few who are as gentle, quiet and patient as Ye Qinglan. She originally only fell in love with Ye Qinglan's appearance and temperament. Now I'm even more satisfied. If Yi'er had such a gentle and attentive person around her, she would be relieved......
This woman who has been looking at Ye Qinglan. It is the lady of the Ministry of Rites, Ma.
Most of the people who can sit at the same table with the Ma family are famous ladies, just like the Zheng family. It stands to reason. Xue shouldn't have sat at this table. But Ma, who has always been arrogant and difficult, is actually very affectionate and easy-going to Xue today, and specially opened his mouth to invite Xue to sit at the same table. Xue's vanity was greatly satisfied, and he sat beside Ma with a smile on his face.
The people present are all clever people with raised eyebrows, and they all vaguely guessed the reason when they saw this posture. Some people sneered in their hearts, some people disdained in their hearts, and some watched the excitement with cold eyes, but no one was envious.
Who doesn't know that Ma has a sick and crooked little son, who relies on various precious tonics every day to continue his life. Maybe one day you will die. Only a shallow eyelid like Xue's would give birth to the idea of getting married.
Zheng also felt unhappy in his heart, but in front of Ma, he didn't reveal half of it. Ye Yuanwei is in the Ministry of Rites, so naturally he can't offend this Mrs. Shangshu lightly.
Ma was very satisfied with Ye Qinglan, so he was more cordial to Xue, and invited Xue to come over as a guest in front of everyone, and added a meaningful sentence: "When the time comes, bring Sister Fu and Sister Lan." Xue Shi responded without saying a word.
Zheng didn't say anything at the time, and waited for the banquet to disperse in the carriage back to the house. But he said to the Xue family: "Do you really plan to take Sister Lan to Lu Mansion as a guest?" She only mentioned Ye Qinglan but not Ye Qingfu, and the implication was clearly visible.
Xue Shi smiled a little embarrassedly: "Mrs. Ma opened her mouth to invite, I am afraid that it will not be good if I don't go." ”
In other words, I still plan to go.
Zheng raised an eyebrow. said lightly: "It stands to reason that I shouldn't meddle in the affairs of the third room." However, before the third uncle left. specially entrusted me to take care of the three rooms, so I took the liberty to say a few more words. Sister Lan is thirteen years old this year. It's not too early to say kiss at this time. Our Changyuan Bofu is also a family with a head and a face, and Sister Lan is born with a good appearance. It is not difficult to find a satisfactory family affair for Sister Lan. Why do you have to rush to get close to Mrs. Ma. Her youngest son is a medicine jar, and he may be able to survive for a few years. If Sister Lan is married to such a person, it will be a lifetime of pit for Sister Lan. ”
It's very straightforward. Xue Shi was suddenly a little embarrassed: "Sister-in-law is strict." I just took Sister Lan to be a guest, and I didn't mean anything else. ”
Speaking of this, Xue's reaction was still like this, and Zheng didn't bother to say more: "My brother and sister have their own opinions, but I have a lot of trouble." If it weren't for the sake of Ye Qinglan and Ye Qingning's friendship, she probably wouldn't even say a word.
Cui Wan, who was sitting on the side, changed and changed, hesitated for a moment, and finally opened her mouth and said, "Third aunt, I have also heard that Lu Shangshu's fourth son is weak and sick. Famous doctors from all over the capital have visited him, and they all say that he will not live to be twenty years old. The third aunt must not be impulsive, and marry the tenth sister to the Lu family. "This is pushing Ye Qinglan into the fire pit alive!
Xue's was already very uncomfortable when he was told by Zheng. But after all, Zheng is the eldest sister-in-law and has always been prestigious, so she didn't dare to refute it at all. Cui Wan, a junior, dared to count her down, she couldn't swallow this idle breath, and responded with a smile: "Look at what you said, I am Sister Lan's mother, how can I not think about her." You don't have to worry about this little thing! ”
Cui Wan's face was tender, and her face suddenly turned red.
Zheng's face sank slightly. Xue's words were a pun at all, ostensibly counting Cui Wan, but in fact, he was saying it to himself, and he wanted himself not to interfere in Ye Qinglan's family affairs.
It seems that the Xue family is determined to push Ye Qinglan into the fire pit this time.
Zheng glanced at Cui Wan, and then said slowly: "Wan Niang, your third aunt will set a good family affair for Sister Lan." You don't have to worry about it. ”
Cui Wan responded respectfully, but there was a nameless anger in her heart.
This Xue is really ruthless. Even if Ye Qinglan is not her biological child, she is also the bloodline of Sanfang in the end. She actually had such a thought......
That night, after returning to Qinfangyuan, Cui Wan kept frowning and silent.
Ye Yuanwei asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?" Today is the second brother's big day, you should be happy. Why don't you talk when you come back? Who provoked you? ”
Cui Wan didn't hide it, and learned the conversations on the carriage to Ye Yuanwei one by one: "...... It's really too much for the third aunt to do this, how can she treat the tenth sister like this? ”
Ye Yuanwei's face also changed: "This Lu Yi is famous, Lu Shangshu didn't know how much thought he had to do for him, and asked famous doctors everywhere to treat him." He couldn't even get out of bed and move around, and he couldn't marry a wife at all. How could the third aunt give the tenth sister to such a person! ”
Cui Wan was also angry: "Mother persuaded her, but she didn't listen at all." I said a few words, and she sneered. Looking at this posture, she really planned to bring the tenth sister to Shangshu Mansion as a guest. ”
Being a guest is fake, but looking at each other is real. Bringing her daughter to someone's house to look at her like this way, even if this family business fails in the future, Ye Qinglan will be looked down upon. In the future, how can there be good people who are willing to come to propose? Xue's hand is really vicious!
The more Cui Wan thought about it, the more uneasy she became: "No, I must not let the tenth sister go to Shangshu Mansion." ”
Ye Yuanwei sighed: "The third aunt has already promised Mrs. Ma, and I want her to break the appointment, but I'm afraid it won't be easy." "After all, the Xue family is Ye Qinglan's mother-in-law, and if she wants to take Ye Qinglan out of the mansion as a guest, no one can stop her.
Cui Wan couldn't think of any good ideas for a while, and she didn't sleep well all night.
Ye Qinglan didn't know anything about it, and slept soundly and sweetly. When I got up early the next day to ask for peace to Xue, Xue's rare face was pleasant: "When I was making new clothes a few days ago, you were not in the house, so you missed it." Later, I'll ask someone from the embroidery village to come over and measure you and make a few new autumn clothes. ”
…… Is the sun coming out in the west today?
Ye Qinglan muttered secretly in her heart, and said with a smile: "Thank you mother, but, when I was in the Zhengguo Mansion a few days ago, when the sixth sister made new clothes, she also made a few new clothes for me by the way." Then you don't have to bother. ”
Xue Shi smiled and said: "How can there be too many new clothes, okay, it's decided." You go back to the house first, and when the guy from the embroidery village comes, I'll have someone call you. ”
Ye Qinglan had no choice but to thank and retreat, but she had a question mark in her heart.
The Xue family has always regarded her as a thorn in the flesh, and it would be good if she didn't show her face, but today's attitude has taken a 360-degree turn, and she knows that there must be some conspiracy behind this......
Just when Ye Qinglan was puzzled, the big girl next to Cui Wan came to Chaoyun, and said with a smile: "Miss Ten, young grandmother invited you over, saying that she has something important to tell you." ”
Ye Qinglan responded with a smile, and was surprised again. Cui Wan didn't say anything yesterday, why did "important things" come out after only one night?
When she saw Cui Wan, Ye Qinglan was taken aback by Cui Wan's stern appearance, and couldn't help but joke: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" I shouldn't have quarreled with my cousin! ”
"You're still in the mood to joke with me." Cui Wan glanced at her with disgust: "Wait until I tell you everything, see if you can still laugh!" ”
When Ye Qinglan heard this tone, she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, and reflexively thought of Xue's unusual reaction. Intuitively, I felt that what Cui Wan was about to say must be related to the Xue family......
"Here's the thing." Cui Wan said the matter in a deep voice: "...... At that time, the mother-in-law specially persuaded the third aunt a few words, but she couldn't listen to it at all. insisted on taking you to Shangshu Mansion as a guest. You have to think of a countermeasure quickly, this Shangshu Mansion must not go! ”
Although she was mentally prepared, Ye Qinglan couldn't help but gasp after hearing Cui Wan's words.
This hateful Xue clan is really uneasy and kind! (To be continued......)
