194 Reckless
The deepest wound in Shen Shining's heart was that she had said that she would be married to her second cousin, but later because of the arguments for inheritance, the matter was over. Now that Jiang Chuanye is engaged to Cao Yu'e, everyone says that Cao Yu'e is capable, but I'm afraid that even the young grandmother Zhang Shuangshuang can't compare.
Although Cui Shan and Shen Shining didn't say a word, her eyes kept staring at the pavilion in the north garden, and with her gaze, Shen Shining looked over, only to hear that the young men over there were chanting poems against each other in high spirits.
Although it is May, the lotus leaves in the lotus pond are one after another, and they are green, and they have their own scenery. There are also a few budding lotus flowers, slim and jade plants, dragonflies shuttle in between, adding a bit of fun.
Shen Shining looked at Cui Shan's eyes in a daze, but she didn't know which man she had taken a fancy to. Moving her eyes, on the stone bench a few steps away, sat a beautiful and delicate woman, whose beautiful facial features were rare, and the original ordinary eyebrows and eyes were matched together, but they were indescribably good-looking. Although they are both women, Shen Shining has already had some good feelings.
Just when she was confused, she saw Hu Xianglan running to the woman's side and asked sweetly, "Fourth sister, what are you looking at?" ”
"I didn't ...... It's nothing ......" Hu Xiangju, who was distracted, suddenly flushed her cheeks, and her shy and astringent appearance became more and more coquettish.
Hu Xianglan looked up at the direction of the North Garden, where there were two pavilions, one was some half-old officials, drinking and chatting, because they were too far apart, they couldn't hear what everyone was talking about, but as the May wind blew, she still heard the word "Northwest", I am afraid that it was the war in the Northwest.
Hu Xiangju lowered her head, quickly calmed down, and remembered that Hu Xiangling could calculate that Cao Yuzhen had found a good match, and she couldn't be bold for anything. He asked in a shy whisper, "Fifth sister, who is the young man in the blue robe in the pavilion over there?" ”
Hu Xianglan was young, and looked up at the pavilion in the north: "Blue robe." Which blue robe? "There were six young men in the pavilion over there, and there were a dozen or so around the pavilion, and three of them wore blue robes, sky blue, dark blue, and light blue, although they were all blue robes, but the colors were different.
Their words immediately aroused Cui Shan's interest, and she glanced at them.
Hu Xianglan said in a low voice: "Fourth sister, I don't know any of them. ”
Cui Shan smiled: "You don't recognize it, I do." ”
Hu Xiangju's face turned even redder. Biting his lower lip, he moved to Cui Shan's side, and said with an almost mosquito cry but firmly: "It's the one who wears a hollow silver crown." ”
Shen Shining was slightly stunned. I have to sigh that the daughter of the Hu family is bold enough, and she actually inquired about a man in private, if it were her, she wouldn't be able to do it even if she was given three guts.
Cui Shan smiled even brighter, and her whole body trembled slightly. The jewel on his head shook, "Xiangju, your vision is powerful enough." Raising her head and smiling, Hu Xiangling was scheming and vicious, this Hu Xiangju actually asked her about a man, and Cui Shan's smile contained a sarcasm. He is my eleventh imperial uncle. ”
Hu Xiangju's radiant complexion suddenly withered, the eleventh prince she had heard of it, and on the ninth day of the first month of March, the main concubine and the side concubine had been selected in the Golden Palace. On March 28, he vigorously married the concubine, who was the eldest lady of the Jiangnan family and the Anguo Mansion, and was also the beloved daughter of the dignified officials, and also married into the eleventh prince's mansion on the ninth day of April.
The two families prepared all the dowries and other things for their daughters early in the morning. Because An Guogong's family is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, there is only Beppu in the imperial city. Miss An is also out of the imperial city, the 120 dowry that day, so rich that people are greedy, some people talk that the eldest princess out of the cabinet that year has an unprecedented 126 units, this Qin family's young lady actually has 120 units, I am afraid that the dowry is more abundant than the eldest princess.
Jiangnan has been prosperous and rich since ancient times, and the Duke of Anguo is the feudal official of the land of Jiangnan, a famous family, and the eldest daughter is married, which is particularly eye-catching.
When Wen Qigui married Wen Yayun, he also had eighty-eight dowries, which was also rich in the princes and concubines of the palace. Everyone said that he originally prepared more than 100 units for his daughter, but later it was reduced to 88 units because of the taboo of concubines. Hearing that Qigui has served in the Ministry of Officials for many years, and it is fat, all the princes and grandsons are discussing in private, saying that the eleventh prince will really pick and include the two wealthy daughters of the two dynasties into the mansion.
Hu Xianglan looked over there, seeing that the eleventh prince was dressed differently from ordinary men, with a graceful demeanor, and on one side there was a man in Xuanyi, who was also wearing a silver hair cutout crown, with a kingly demeanor: "Who is that Eguan Cui Wei, with sword eyebrows and bright eyes, and dressed in black?" ”
Several people searched in the crowd, but they didn't see anyone dressed in black.
Hu Xianglan hurriedly said: "It is standing between the eleventh prince and the dark blue-robed man." ”
Jin Hai was very displeased, and his words were sharp: "What kind of eyes are you, that's Xuanyi, haven't you heard of it, His Royal Highness the eldest grandson of the emperor has always loved Xuanxi robes, who else will there be besides King Wu?" ”
is not the prince, or the eldest grandson of the emperor, it seems that all the hairstyles and silver crowns are royal men.
Appreciating beautiful men is like appreciating flowers, Cui Shan sat here, looking at the young men in the pavilion, each more pleasing to the eye. Compared with the excellent men of the royal family, Cao Yuzhen is not inferior at all, with decent manners and suave manners, seeing Cui Shan's heart ripple in circles, she came today to see him, not to talk to him, even to see from a distance is good.
Hu Xianglan said: "Hey, who is wearing the silver and gray robe?" ”
Shen Shi paid attention to Cui Shan's expression silently, but when she heard Hu Xianglan's question, Cui Shan's smile froze slightly, and immediately turned into a vigilant look at Hu Xianglan. I vaguely heard that Cui Shan likes Cao Yuzhen, and once thought it was a human word, but now it seems that this matter is true. Cui Shan looked at it for so long, and all she saw was Cao Yuzhen.
Thinking that everyone else has a man they like and knows what they look like, Shen Shining thinks of her future husband, she doesn't know what her temperament is or what she is like, although she has been engaged for three years, she has never seen her once, and her mood is depressed and difficult to stretch.
Hu Xiangju recalled what the third aunt said, Hu Xiangzhi intended to connect her and the Seventh Prince, thinking that the Seventh Prince was already a man in his thirties, and the eldest son was the same size as her, and his mood was also dull. She is just a concubine, where to decide for her own life, everything is in the words of the master's mother.
Cui Shan felt really bored, and shouted to the North Garden: "Cousin King Wu, cousin King Wu!" ”
When the eldest princess heard the call, she frowned slightly, and the dignified county lord and everyone were beautiful, shouting at the banquet, and was about to send someone to warn, but she saw that there were really many good men in the pavilion over there.
The eldest princess thought of this, her daughter is not young now, and she originally thought of marrying Cui Shan to King Wu and Yan Shizi of the palace, but now the eldest princess has dispelled the idea. He turned his mind around flexibly, and said to the Yu family on the side: "Your sixth son is engaged?" ”
I didn't expect the eldest princess to suddenly ask about this, the Yu family has been thinking about Su Yan these days, and they want to give Su Yan an engagement, and suddenly remembered that Su Yan said that Jiang Shulin has not decided for life. It has really become a problem, she has too many sons in front of her, and she ignored Jiang Shulin for a while, a few years ago, she was busy for a while, and she didn't have any relatives to book, the young lady she liked back then, everyone had a few children, and Jiang Shulin's marriage was still unresolved.
Yu sighed lightly: "Not yet, I only think about making contributions, but I ignore my life." ”
The eldest princess said with a smile: "All the sons and daughters of the Jiang family are very good, they are motivated and willing to work hard." The sixth son is in his twenties this year, right? ”
Yu was a little embarrassed and replied, "Three out of twenty." ”
This is the real age, the virtual age of twenty-four, thinking of Yu Shi felt very suffocated, when Jiang Shuhong was so old, he had two children, Jiang Shuhong was the eldest son, and when he was fifteen years old, he was engaged to the eldest grandmother Shen, and at the age of seventeen, he married the eldest grandmother who had just finished the ceremony. He became a father at the age of eighteen, and gave birth to a second son at the age of twenty.
There was an official wife next to her who suddenly came back to her senses, the Jiang family still has a son who has not married, the daughter of the Jiang family does not dare to hope for extravagance, the son of the Jiang family does not accept concubines, only has a few intercourse before marriage, once they get married, they will go out of the house with someone. No matter how you look at it, it's all excellent. "It's time for Mrs. Wen Zhonghou to get him married, although it is okay for the man to be older, but he is in his twenties, so he can't delay any longer."
Yu Shi He didn't know, and said with a smile: "This child has a big idea, he has to earn a reputation to marry a wife, and he also said that he wants his wife to be happy for him and proud of him...... Look, it's all not high or low, and he hasn't seen the shadow of his daughter-in-law, so he has to earn fame for his daughter-in-law, isn't it a joke. ”
The eldest princess was overjoyed, and the man who could say such things would not lose any woman who married. When I thought of my daughter Cui Shan, I was afraid that I would go to my mother-in-law's house, and my son-in-law would go back to the house on the left and on the right. The more I think about it, the more I feel that Jiang Shulin is suitable for her own daughter, first, the Jiang family's door style is very good, and secondly, the Yu family has been in contact with her for many years, and she is a reasonable person, although she occasionally makes Jiang Shuncheng disgraced, but she is tolerant of her daughter-in-law, which is well known.
The eldest princess pondered for a moment, and an official wife in a dark blue brocade robe interjected and recommended herself shamelessly. She was so angry that she glared angrily.
"Mrs. Jiang, the second daughter of my family is fourteen this year, and she will be married on the sixth day of the first month of the new year, and she has not yet been engaged!" The one who spoke was actually the grandmother of the second room of the Li family and the second aunt of Li Bihan.
Li Bihan's mother saw that her brother-in-law was about to cause trouble, so she hurriedly stretched out her hand and gently tugged at her, signaling her not to say anything more.
The eldest princess also dared to dig into the corner, and seeing the appearance and tone of the eldest princess, she must also be happy with the sixth child of the Jiang family. Who dares to provoke the eldest princess, this is the eldest princess who is the most favored by the emperor today.
However, Second Grandmother Li pretended not to know, pushed away Grandma Li's hand, and smiled brightly: "Sister-in-law, I think too much, I'm afraid that the marriage of the coral county lord is approaching." If Mrs. Jiang doesn't believe this, you can ask my sister-in-law, Bihan's niece is good friends with the young lady of your house, and Grandma Jiang and my sister-in-law are also handkerchief friends, I look at this very good, one is twenty-three, one is fourteen, but it is really a match made in heaven......
