Chapter 165: Asking for help

I didn't expect Lu Qingrong to ask so bluntly.

He Qingning was stunned at first, and lowered his head a little embarrassed.

Lu Qingrong didn't urge her, and after a while, he saw her slowly raise her head.

"I want to ask Mrs. Shizi to help me......" He Qingning opened his mouth tentatively, "I really can't help it, I really don't know anyone next to me......"

Lu Qingrong couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard this.

They don't know each other, do they?

Although Lu Qingrong has no memory of his past before he was one year old, He Qingning was only a three-year-old child at that time, how much impression could he have of himself?

Seeing He Qingning's embarrassed look at this time, Lu Qingrong finally relented: "Tell me first, what happened?" ”

Seeing this, He Qingning ignited a glimmer of hope in his heart.

"As soon as we arrived in the capital with our grandfather, someone came to the door to propose ......marriage," He Qingning said here, still a little shy after all, "Originally, my father and mother were a little hesitant, but my grandfather had already agreed......

She said intermittently, but Lu Qingrong understood a rough idea.

However, He Qingning is two years older than herself, and it is logical to talk about marriage, and it is a little strange to see her spitting at this time.

Could it be that she has a crush on her own? But you can't tell yourself......

Although Lu Qingrong was full of doubts, she didn't know where to start, but fortunately she didn't make a sound, waiting for her to continue.

Seeing that she didn't say a word, He Qingning hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and said, "Can Mrs. Shizi help me persuade my grandfather and grandmother, I really don't want to ......"

Although he had already expected what she meant just now, Lu Qingrong's brows were still tighter: "Why don't you want to?" But do you have someone you like? ”

"Of course not!" He Qingning was so anxious that his face was flushed, and he hurriedly denied it, "The person who came to propose marriage was entrusted by the Chengping Marquis Mansion to propose marriage for their second master......"

He Qingning didn't say any more, she knew that Lu Qingrong had lived in the capital for many years, and she should have heard of this person.

And this is indeed the case, Lu Qingrong's disgusting face immediately appeared in front of his eyes, but he tried his best to control his expression, and did not show the slightest disgust.

This also made He Qingning, who was observing her reaction, a little unsure for a while.

"You don't want to marry the second master of the Chengping Marquis Mansion?" Lu Qingrong's tone was flat and waveless, and he couldn't hear any emotion.

In fact, at this moment, she was already slandering herself in her heart.

On the way to the wing room before, she had already made up her mind that no matter what He Qingning wanted to do, it had nothing to do with her.

But when I heard that she was going to marry Song Shixiang, she finally had a trace of sympathy.

"I don't want to." He Qingning replied very firmly, "Originally, I was a newcomer to the capital, and I didn't know who this person was, but then I happened to hear the conversation between Qingwan and the county lord of Kangning, and it wasn't until Song Shixiang was notorious in the capital that he couldn't find the right person for a long time, so he hurriedly came to the door to propose a ...... when we first came to the capital."

This sounds normal at first glance, but Lu Qingrong always feels that something is wrong.

"You believe the words of the two of them?" Lu Qingrong questioned.

When I first heard it, I didn't believe it, so I ran to my mother to make sure. Although the mother did not answer directly, from her slightly resentful and apologetic eyes, it was already very clear. He Qingning's tone became more and more lost.

Lu Qingrong finally figured out what was wrong.

Although Song Shixiang has a bad reputation and is a concubine, after all, he was born in the Chengping Hou Mansion and is the biological son of the Hou Ye. The so-called "I can't find the right person for a long time" is simply the words of He Qingwan and Qiu Jinting.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingrong raised his eyes and looked at He Qingning in front of him.

The skin is white and flawless, the thin eyebrows on the goose-egg-like face are picturesque, and there is a touch of faint blush between the apricot eyes and peach cheeks.

He Qingning, who is upright and in his age, undoubtedly looks very standard.

"Have you ever been out of the house since you came to the capital?" Lu Qingrong asked suddenly.

He Qingning recalled for a moment, although he was puzzled, he still told the truth: "After arriving in the capital, I have never gone out. But soon remembered something again, "But on the day I entered Beijing, I passed by the Guangyin Temple outside the city, and my grandmother wanted to enter the temple to pay respects, and my mother and I also went with me, does this count?" ”

Lu Qingrong didn't answer, but his heart was like a mirror.

This Song Shixiang, can't he change places? Lu Qingrong sighed in his heart.

"Then it doesn't matter who Song Shixiang is, why does the Chengping Marquis Mansion only take a fancy to you, it is useless to delve into it, you must understand that since ancient times, marriage has been the order of the parents...... "Lu Qingrong is sympathetic, but this is not something he should meddle in after all.

"But......" He Qingning looked even more aggrieved, "but my father and mother are not very willing, but my grandfather is very persistent." ”

"So what?" Lu Qingrong couldn't help but ask rhetorically.

Do He Di and Yang still dare to contradict He Zhiyuan?

This point Lu Qingrong can still be determined, it is absolutely impossible.

He Zhiyuan has an undisputed position in the He family, and He Kai let Qiu Muyun enter the door with such a single-minded thought, but whether he divorced or remarried, he could only do it when he let go.

And the current shape is very obvious, the main purpose of the He family entering Beijing this time is for He Di's career activities, at this time, such a good thing to find the door, He Zhiyuan is impossible to push out even if he is confused.

Seeing that He Qingning stopped talking at this time, there seemed to be a flash of crystal in his eyes, Lu Qingrong's mind remained sober: "I can understand your mood to some extent, but even your parents can't turn around, what's the use of you telling me?" I'm an outsider after all, so how can I help? ”

Although he couldn't bear it, Lu Qingrong still said the word "outsider" very clearly.

He Qingning understood this truth, and admitted that she was now in a hurry to go to the doctor, but even if she racked her brains, she really couldn't think of any other way.

"I've heard my mother mention it before." He Qingning hesitated slightly, but continued: "If it were you, I wouldn't want to be with you...... What's the matter? It's just that in recent months, I can always hear my grandmother sigh with emotion, mentioning that Mrs. Shizi married a good family, and I hope that our sisters can also have this good life, and glorify the lintel for the He family, and my grandfather must think the same. I thought to myself, if you can help me talk about it, maybe I can really make them change their minds......"

Lu Qingrong listened to her say so much, all of them were a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, and she didn't see any clue, knowing that she had begun to say nothing.

At this moment, He Qingning continued: "I know that Mrs. Shizi also has difficulties, and I dare not force you to help me......"

Lu Qingrong wasn't sure if she meant what she said or if she was retreating, but it didn't matter that much.

"I understand what you mean. And as you said, it is not convenient for me to say anything in front of your grandfather and grandmother. Lu Qingrong said directly, "But since you don't want to marry Song Shixiang, there must be more than one way, you let me think about it." ”

After speaking, Lu Qingrong no longer paid attention to He Qingning's grateful expression, and was about to call Luzhu to come in to help her change clothes, but she stopped her.

"There is one more thing, I want to remind Mrs. Shizi ......" He Qingning's face showed embarrassment again, as if he had made a lot of determination before saying: "You and Qingwan, it's better not to be too close." ”

Although Lu Qingrong himself knew that he should stay away from He Qingwan, he was still a little puzzled when he was suddenly reminded like this.

"What else have you heard?" Lu Qingrong asked directly.

He Qingning stopped speaking this time, and he didn't intend to explain why he said this.

Lu Qingrong didn't want to force it, and instead asked: "Then what do you mean by 'too close', you can always sue me, right?" ”

"For example...... For example, let her go to the Hou Mansion as a guest. He Qingning really said hesitantly.

"Well, I'll watch out myself."

Lu Qingrong didn't say more, Gu Zi turned around and went behind the screen, called Lu Zhu to come in, and helped her take off the lilac skirt that was wet with tea, and put on a lotus lotus dress with the same style.

And after Luzhu came in, He Qingning hurriedly restrained his feelings, as if nothing had happened, and no longer mentioned what happened just now.

Regardless of whether Lu Qingrong is true or fake, being able to promise to help her find a way is already the only hope she can hold now, she can only believe it.

Lu Qingrong quickly finished changing clothes and returned to the front yard to watch the play again.

At this time, the stage is no longer the one just now, but has been replaced by a slightly light literary drama.

As a result, the room was no longer noisy, and it became much quieter.

Lu Qingrong, who was sitting in the second row, lost the mood to chat with Cui Shiyun because he had something on his mind, and He Qingning on the other side was no longer bored.

In this way, it makes the movement in the front row particularly obvious.

Sitting directly in front of Lu Qingrong was Feng, and on either side of her sat Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Chengpinghou respectively.

Now that I see the extraordinary enthusiasm of Feng and Mrs. Chengping, I no longer feel confused.

On the contrary, Feng and Mrs. Wu also talked happily at this time, which made her a little confused.

These two people shouldn't have had much friendship before, right?

Without deliberately paying attention, you can hear Feng Zheng praising He Qingwan in front of Mrs. Wu, what is knowledgeable, gentle and demure, and so on.

Lu Qingrong inevitably wondered, the He family and the Qiu family are in-laws, should they not know that Jiang Ke is already going to marry Qiu Jinting, so the Feng family praised He Qingwan as a flower as if he was selling, and what was it for?

Lu Qingrong suddenly felt that today's church meeting was full of weirdness.

And Jiang Xuan, who was on the other side of the curtain at this time, was also a little annoyed. R1152
