Chapter 137: Agreeing to the Family Affair

Master Xu Si continued: "Two days ago, my father asked Sister Jin if she agreed to the Du family's proposal, but your sister was shy and refused to say. Scorching, can you go in and ask Daddy for you? ”

Xu Qirong choked, and he completely believed that his father had nothing to do with the rumors outside. It was also a little sudden to realize, no wonder my sister's eyes were red and swollen two days ago, and she only said that she was hit by the small insects in the osmanthus flowers, but now it seems that she was angry and cried by her father.

Master Xu Si smiled with crooked eyebrows, and there was some coaxing in his tone: "Is it okay to go in and ask for your father?" ”

Xu Qirong suddenly realized that his father must have known that what he asked his sister before made his sister angry, and Princess Pingtai was inside, so he didn't dare to provoke his sister at this time. But I remembered this very much in my heart, so I hit her with the idea.

was in a stalemate, but saw the silver carp come out of it, blessed the fourth master Xu, and saluted Xu Qirong, before saying: "Fourth master, the old lady said, it's getting late, I'm afraid that the maid and wife in Pingqiu Courtyard have already prepared dinner, and I won't leave the fourth master to eat today." ”

Master Xu Si laughed twice, then coughed, and said to Xu Qirong in a pretended majesty: "Zhuo Zhuo accompanies Grandma for Daddy, there are still things in Daddy's study, so I'll go back first." ”

Where the silver carp couldn't see, he winked at Xu Qirong.

Xu Qirong nodded and said meekly: "Daddy go slowly, Daddy should rest early." ”

Master Xu Si thought that his youngest daughter understood his hint, so he turned around and left in good spirits.

Yinli said to Xu Qirong: "The old lady said. For dinner today, Miss Fifth will use it in the Fengbo Building by herself, and she won't be used in the small flower hall to accompany her. ”

Xu Qirong hurriedly asked, "What about my sister?" ”

Yinli smiled: "Second Miss is fine. ”

Xu Qirong frowned. Some didn't believe it: "I heard that my sister and Du Dagongzi fought in front of everyone?" ”

Yinli nodded unsurprisedly: "It's a fight, but how old is the second miss of Du, and in front of everyone, he doesn't dare to kill the second miss." The old lady had already asked Mama Gui to help the second lady check it, and there were no injuries on her body. However, Du Dagongzi was a little wolf, and there was a piece of skin under his eyes, which should have been accidentally rubbed by the second lady's nails. ”

Xu Qirong listened. Not only did he not breathe a sigh of relief, but he was even more worried: "My sister really agreed to Du's proposal?" ”

Although Princess Pingtai told Yinli not to let Xu Qirong go over to see her and Xu Qijin at this time, she didn't say that she couldn't tell Xu Qirong about these things.

Yin Carp asked when he saw Xu Qirong. Without the slightest concealment, while taking Xu Qirong's hand and walking towards Fengbo Building, he talked about it all at 1510.

"The rumors outside the Du family also know, last time the eldest prince Du came to discuss with the old lady. The attitude towards our government is almost clear. Later, I heard rumors in Xijing City. and knew that this family affair was the first of his aunt's first phase, so he felt that he had caused the second lady to be involved. Du Dagongzi's original words were, 'I, Du Zhong, have done a good job, and since Miss Xu Er's reputation has been affected, there is no reason to be irresponsible. Even if he doesn't like Miss Xu Er, now he has to be willing to engage with Miss Xu Er, and wait for Miss Xu to marry Miss Xu after she is married, and then marry Miss Xu in accordance with the rules. ”

Xu Qirong shook his head: "My sister is arrogant. Du Dagongzi reluctantly proposed marriage, why did his sister wronged herself and agreed? ”

Yinli explained: "Second Miss heard this. He said, 'I'd rather twist my hair and be a sister-in-law than send it to others to practice, when the time comes, how can the Xu family have face!" Then the eldest prince of Du sneered and said, "The second lady doesn't have anything to worry about being a sister-in-law, I'm afraid that if there is such a sister, the little ladies of the Xu family will be affected." The second lady was so angry when she heard this, she couldn't help but slap the teacup in her hand on the table for a while, and then the two started a fight somehow. ”

The more Xu Qirong listened, the tighter his brows wrinkled. This Du eldest son, not to mention his poisonous mouth, and still fight with the little lady in public, if you really want to talk about it, even Yi Tongchi can't compare, why does my sister have such a rotten peach blossom?

Yinli said: "After the fight, Du Dagongzi said, 'Second Miss's reputation is completely ruined, a little lady who will fight with her son's brother, who else dares to ask for it?' The second miss is not stupid, as soon as the eldest prince Du said this, the second miss immediately told Princess Pingtai to change the Geng post, which can be regarded as agreeing to the Du family's family affairs. ”

Xu Qirong's eyes widened, feeling a little unbelievable, her sister has always been the most regular, and she never imagined that she would do such an "out-of-line" thing.

Pouting, Xu Qirong said angrily: "This eldest prince Du has a good and bad heart, could it be that he has a fight with his sister, just to provoke his sister to agree to this family business?" If you are reluctant to mention your relatives, it doesn't seem like you will be so persistent. ”

Yinli nodded: "The second lady agreed, but Du Dagongzi repented and wanted to take his Geng post back." Then he was glared at by Mr. Cen, saying that he wanted him to think about what Master Du said in the letter. Then Du Dagongzi stopped making trouble, but muttered in his mouth, saying that he accidentally married a ......"

Speaking of which, the silver carp can't go on.

Xu Qirong frowned: "What did you marry?" ”

The silver carp whispered, "Vixen." ”

"He's a shrew!" When Xu Qirong heard this, he was angry, and he was a little speechless, and said, "Since you are so wronged, why should my sister exchange Geng posts with him, there are always discerning people in the world, in the entire Xijing City, in terms of character and appearance, who can compare to my sister!" ”

Yinli nodded: "The old lady said the same thing." But the second lady said that nothing in the world is perfect, as long as Princess Pingtai is there, the Du family will not dare to do anything to her. Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, Du Dagongzi is better than being double-faced and three-edged like Young Master Yi before. ”

Xu Qirong was about to refute, but when he remembered the events of his previous life, he instantly felt that Xu Qijin's words also made some sense. Yun Lan gave her hope at first, but then let her step by step into despair, it was better to give up her thoughts in the first place.

Seeing that Xu Qirong was thoughtful, the silver carp suddenly approached Xu Qirong and whispered in her ear: "The second lady knows that the maid is coming to find the fifth miss, and she is worried that the fifth miss will be worried, so she whispered a few words and asked the maid to bring the fifth miss." ”

Xu Qirong was stunned, my sister only met with Qiu Nong not long ago, since she had something to say, why didn't she let Qiu Nong bring it over? I was a little surprised, but I still motioned for the silver carp to speak.

Yin Carp lowered her voice: "Second Miss said, she is not messing around, nor is she being angry, she has also carefully examined the behavior of this Grand Duke Du." Since it was the second aunt of the county lord of Shuang Pian who mentioned himself to the Du family, it can be seen that the eldest prince Du is at least passable in terms of character and talent, but this character is too bad. It's still early, and when it's really over, then the eldest prince of Du will never treat her badly. ”

Xu Qijin's words were reasonable, Xu Qirong's face finally improved a lot after hearing it, but he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart: "Sister is such a good person, why should he be cheaper!" ”

In my heart, I understand how badly those rumors outside hurt Xu Qijin's reputation, if he marries Du Dagongzi, those rumors outside are the people's mouths and the master's affairs are spread. If he hadn't married Du Dagongzi, those rumors outside would have become evidence of the restlessness of the second miss of the Xu family.

For a young lady in the boudoir who has been in the house for more than a year, the most important thing is reputation.

In the previous life, Xu Qirong ruined his reputation early because he helped the county lord of Jiaren elope, and later there were vicious rumors about framing his stepmother for slipping a fetus, and finally fell silent for a few years. At that time, the little ladies in Xijing City even felt that they were dirty their mouths when they mentioned the name Xu Qirong, and they all replaced her with "the little hooves of the Xu family" in their words. Later, he married into the Dongyang Hou Mansion, and it was difficult to get out of the door once, and he was thrown away with rotten eggs and vegetable leaves. After that, he never dared to go out openly.

After experiencing this, Xu Qirong naturally couldn't watch her sister ruin her reputation because of those rumors.

Yin Li was relieved to see that Xu Qirong's affection was no longer as intense as just now, and then explained: "The old lady left the fifth miss for dinner today, but I am afraid that she has something to say to the second miss, and she is worried that the fifth miss will be excited, so she called the maid to tell the fifth lady to have dinner in the storm building today." If there is anything else that Miss Fifth is unhappy about, Miss Second will naturally talk to Miss Five tomorrow. ”

Xu Qirong smiled bitterly and shook her head, what else was she unhappy about? My sister will agree to the Du family's proposal, but she is not worried that her reputation will be ruined.

On the second day, Xu Qijin really came to Fengbo Building early in the morning.

Xu Qirong had just finished washing, and was braiding by Yu Xia, when he saw Xu Qijin coming, he took a closer look. Xu Qijin's expression did not have the slightest depression, compared with the previous days, the whole person was much more relaxed, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

When Xu Qirong looked at Xu Qijin, Xu Qijin was also looking at Xu Qirong, and saw that his sister looked as usual, but he was a little apprehensive, and reluctantly hooked the corners of his mouth, and said, "Scorching, I was ...... yesterday."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Xu Qirong smile and said, "Sister doesn't have to explain, Zhuo Zhuo understands everything." After a pause, Xu Qirong said again, "My sister is both talented and beautiful, even if someone doesn't like her sister for a while, after getting along for a long time, you will always know what your sister is good about." ”

Although Xu Qijin didn't think that with the temperament of Du Dagongzi, the two of them would have Qin Se and Ming in the future, but he didn't want his sister to worry, and he was relieved when he heard Xu Qirong say this. (To be continued......)
