Chapter 197: Rumors (The First Change!! )
"You can find a girl to marry at the end of the year?!"
Happiness came too quickly, Lu Ruilan almost fainted while holding on to the corner of the table.
"You didn't coax your sister-in-law, did you? If you can really find a girl to marry before the end of the year, I will definitely go to the ancestral hall to incense my parents-in-law! After all these years, I finally have an explanation for my parents-in-law! Lu Ruilan burst into tears of joy.
She took a handkerchief and printed the corners of her eyes, took a deep breath, calmed her excitement for a while, and then said slowly: "Okay, this kind of thing is just to say." Marriage is a lifelong thing, and my sister-in-law doesn't want you to find a random girl to marry in order to fight for this tone. You have already withdrawn once, and if you retreat again, no matter how good you are, you will not be able to find a good girl to marry you. Although your eldest brother and sister-in-law, second brother and sister-in-law hope that you will start a family as soon as possible, they do not want to force you to settle. Again, it's best to find a really suitable girl. Not only to your liking, but also to our family's status. ”
These words are a warning to Xie Donglian, don't want to find someone to perfunctory them......
Because Xie Dongli said that the eldest brother and sister-in-law, the second brother and the second sister-in-law should let go, how could they really let go?
You have to circle a general range, and then Xie Dongli will find it in this range.
“…… As the old saying goes, one dad is a bear, and a mother is a nest. You find an inappropriate daughter-in-law, such as the eldest lady of the Zhang family, in order to marry this wife with the wrong door and the wrong household, Lord Zhang also fought a famine with the family, and the old lady Zhang had no choice but to give in and let him marry back. Over the years, he couldn't talk about being in charge of the Zhang family, and he also connived at his daughter to escape marriage. That's really cheating his own man and cheating other men, and causing trouble for the Zhang family......" Lu Ruilan explained it clearly to Xie Dongli for a long time and a short one, so that he could know the bottom line of the Xie family in finding a daughter-in-law for him.
Xie Dongli was silent for a long time. Holding the secret porcelain tea cup with a thousand peaks in his hand, he kept turning, looking at the green and crystal tea in the tea cup, and the clear grains of Biluochun in the tea, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he said slowly: "...... Sister-in-law, you clearly said that you were going to find a girl to marry and block the Zhang family's mouth, why did you change your mind again so quickly? ”
"I was angry before!" Lu Ruilan knocked on the table. "Do you understand the angry words? But how can you be a lifelong event? ”
"You can't have it both ways. If you just want to gag the Zhang family's mouth, I will definitely be able to find a girl to marry before the end of the year. Remember. It's a marriage, not a marriage. Xie Dongliang's chin was slightly raised, and his tone was very decisive, "When will you get married." I've got the final say. ”
Lu Ruilan glanced at Xie Dongli quickly. Then he lowered his head and looked at the fan in his hand over and over again, and quickly thought in his heart: This is the first time that Xie Dongli has shown his strength in front of her about his own family affairs.
In the past, he was always indispensable.
Let them look at each other's girls, no matter which one they ask, he will not say a word, and he will not say good or bad.
Looking at his attitude, everyone also knows that he is not satisfied.
But now he wants to take the power of picking people into his own hands. Does it mean that he has someone in his heart? But others haven't taken a fancy to him yet, so he's embarrassed to say it to his family?
Thinking about it like this, Lu Ruilan felt very incredible.
In the entire Dongyuan Kingdom, is there really a girl who looks down on his fifth brother?!
Lu Ruilan couldn't help but want to scream: This amiable and respectable girl, you are rough! Let's talk about the big things about starting a family in this life!
But she knew that Xie Dongli was thin-skinned and refused to admit it until he was ten or nine stable, so Lu Ruilan endured it and didn't say anything, just nodded with a flickering look in her eyes, and said, "Okay, sister-in-law promised you." Even your eldest brother, second brother and second sister-in-law, sister-in-law can guarantee that she will not interfere with your choice of daughter-in-law! ”
Although Xie Dongli's face remained unchanged, the earlobes that were quietly dyed with two traces of red still betrayed his mood.
Lu Ruilan is even more certain: The fifth brother must have someone in his heart......
……
Mrs. Zhang took Zhang Zhenmiao out of Xie's house and went straight to the palace to see the queen's mother, Qi Xueyun.
The Zhang family has always been good friends with Queen Qi Xueyun, and Qi Xueyun also gives them face.
Seeing that it was Mrs. Zhang's greetings, Qi Xueyun immediately ordered someone to lead them in.
Under the guidance of the eunuch, Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Zhenmiao came to Qi Xueyun's Changchun Palace.
"I've seen the Queen Mother." Mrs. Zhang took Zhang Zhenmiao to give a big salute to Qi Xueyun.
"Get up." Qi Xueyun smiled and raised her hand, "Give a seat." ”
Then he asked Mrs. Zhang, "Who is this girl?" I haven't seen it before. ”
Mrs. Zhang pointed at Zhang Zhenmiao and said, "This is the daughter of the second child in my family, and she rarely comes out." Her father had just been given a copy of ginseng and imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department. - Queen, you must save my son! ”
Their Zhang family is also working for the queen.
Most of those benefits are filial piety to the queen, and now that something has happened, the queen can't stand by and watch, right?
Qi Xueyun also learned about Xiao Zhang's deputy minister Zhang Shaoqi.
She shook a goose plush fan, and the nine phoenix hanging bead hairpin on her head swayed, bringing up a piece of pearl light, reflecting the brilliance on her face.
“…… You can rest assured, in this matter, this palace will plead with His Majesty. Qi Xueyun said disappreciably, "I can't let you suffer." However, the position of this deputy will definitely not be taken back. As he spoke, he glanced at Old Madam Zhang, "This is also your fault." Xie Dongli is obviously the son-in-law of your Zhang family, why did he lose his heart to lard and divorce him? You see now, people have to step on your Zhang family for the sake of retiring from their relatives at the beginning. Speaking of which, it's your fault first. ”
Old Madam Zhang had already scolded Zeng and Zhang Zhenqin to death in her heart, but now it is impossible to continue scolding in front of the queen, and besides, she went to Xie's house just now and found that it seemed to be different from what she thought.
Xie Dongli was obviously indifferent to Zhang Zhenmiao.
If he really took revenge on Zhang Zhenqin, who had quit his family at the beginning, it would be impossible for him to react at all to Zhang Zhenmiao, who looked exactly like Zhang Zhenqin and was even younger and more beautiful......
Mrs. Zhang faintly felt that they were thinking too much, and the truth was probably not like that.
But even if they think too much. They still have to detain Xie Dongli to take revenge on their Zhang family for the matter of retiring their relatives, because in this way, their Zhang family will not lose face, and they can rescue Zhang Shaoqi more smoothly.
Now I listen to the queen mother also talk about this reason. Mrs. Zhang immediately said, "Yes, yes...... It's our fault...... I've already scolded my eldest daughter-in-law at home. It was she who was too accustomed to Zhenqin at the beginning to cause today's monstrous disaster! ”
After a pause, Old Madam Zhang glanced at the queen's face, and pushed Zhang Zhenmiao out again, "However, the queen, it's not that we don't want to compensate Lord Xie." Look at my chastity. She was born exactly like her cousin Zhenqin, and she was three points more beautiful than Zhenqin. Zhenqin and Master Xie divorced, but she was not blessed. We can marry Zhen Miao to Master Xie. If Lord Xie is willing, it's okay to send Zhen Miao to Xie's house right away......"
Isn't that a concubine?
"The daughter of the Zhang family can be a concubine?" The queen raised her eyebrows, "Is the Xie family still not allowed?" ”
"They won't withdraw their money." Mrs. Zhang said helplessly, wiping her tears with her sleeve. "You can help me intercede. The Xie family wants the position of deputy prime minister. We can let it out. But can you release my son from the prison of the Ministry of Punishment? ”
"You go back first. Wait for the palace to talk to His Majesty. Qi Xueyun did not have a packing ticket, but said that he would intervene.
Mrs. Zhang and Zhang Zhenmiao knelt down together to thank the queen before leaving the Changchun Palace and returning to Zhang's house.
Soon after they returned, rumors began to circulate in the capital.
said that the new vice minister Xie Dongli was dissatisfied with being dismissed by the third lady of the Zhang family's big house two years ago, and it may be because of his deep love for the third miss of the Zhang family, so he found a reason. took the opportunity to suppress the Zhang family, not only sent the second grandfather of the Zhang family, Xiao Zhang, to the prison of the Criminal Department. took the position of his deputy prime minister, and refused to pay attention to the Zhang family's overtures, and was determined to fight the Zhang family to the end!
When Situ Yingsleeve heard this, she was following her mother-in-law Shen Yongjie and younger brother Situ Chenlei to live at her grandfather's house.
Shen Yongjie has been behind closed doors since she returned to the capital for more than two months before she has raised most of her body.
As soon as she was able to walk on the ground, her mother, Mrs. Shen, couldn't wait to send a car over and take her back to her parents' house to live.
Shen Yongjie wanted to go back to her parents' house, but of course Situ Jianren didn't dare to stop her, and he personally sent the three of them to Shen's house with a smile.
"Cousin, have you heard? Now there are rumors in the city that the city is full of wind and rain, and it is said that Lord Xie has no love for his former fiancée, not only refusing to find someone else to marry, but also killing the Zhang family! Shen Yule heard the news from her eldest brother, and hurriedly said to listen to Situ Yingsleeve.
Situ Yingsleeve sat with her in the inner courtyard of the Shen family's waiting frost pavilion to eat tea and enjoy the camellia, and was very interested when she heard the words, and said with a smile: "Really? So what to do? I heard that Miss Zhang San had already married and even had a son. ”
She also comforted Xie Donglian, saying that this matter is "God knows, you know and I know", and she will not let the third person know!
I really didn't expect this matter to spread all over the city.
"I think it's a pity, too." Shen Yule smiled and shook his head, "I also think it's incredible." How could someone like Master Xie never forget Zhang Zhenqin's little girl? ”
"Well said!"
There was a cheer behind them.
Situ Yingsleeve and Shen Yule turned around in surprise and saw Xie Dongli, Zheng Hao, and Shen Mingcheng, the eldest son of the Shen family, standing outside the pavilion, as if they had just come from the outer courtyard.
"Big brother, Lord Xie, Second Prince Zheng, why are you here?" Shen Yule happily stood up and greeted him.
Shen Mingcheng smiled and said, "Lord Xie just finished talking to my grandfather about business, and I heard that my aunt was back, so I came to visit my aunt. The second prince of Zheng was entrusted by the prince of Changxing Hou to deliver things to his aunt, cousin, and cousin, so I brought them in with me. ”
The five words "Hou Shizi of Changxing" passed by Xie Dongxuan's ears, his brows wrinkled almost imperceptibly, his eyes swept over Situ Ying's smiling face, he felt that it was very eye-catching, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Miss Situ, why didn't you count what you promised me that day?" ”
Situ Yingsleeve's smile suddenly froze on his face.
Xie Dongli wouldn't think that those words that said that he was obsessed with his ex-fiancée were passed on by her, right?!
