Chapter 233: Hidden Feelings
Ruyao's voice was a little hoarse, obviously not having a good time, but she still had to persuade Qin's mother, the atmosphere in the room was solemn and sad, Xiao Gu listened outside, and she was quite emotional in her heart.
At this moment, suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, Xiao Gu covered his figure, and saw Bihe rushing in from the outside, shouting happily: "Miss, I'm overjoyed......"
"What kind of mess?!"
Mother Qin was sad, and whispered unhappily when she heard the words, but saw that Bihe didn't pay attention to her at all, and just said in a loud voice with excitement on her face: "Miss, I heard the mother-in-law in the front yard say that the Yuan family of the Marquis of Guangping has come to propose marriage - it is for you!" ā
This sentence was earth-shattering, which stunned the two who were originally sad and depressed, and even Xiao Gu outside the window was extremely shocked!
"You, what did you say?"
Mother Qin couldn't believe her ears, grabbed Bihe's wrist, and asked sharply, "You mean that someone from the Yuan family came to propose to Sister Yao?" ā
"Yes, Mother Qin, it's true!"
Bi He couldn't help but answer her very loudly.
Mother Qin was shocked and strange at the same time
"Who is from the Yuan family, and who is receiving the guests?"
Mother Qin was shocked and surprised - the Yuan family had a cold attitude, neither of the male and female masters came forward, and let a group of housekeepers come to ask for jade tablets and wanted to send themselves away, why did it take only half a day to immediately change their attitude, and come to the door so diligently to propose marriage?
"It seems that the Marquis of Guangping came in person."
Bihe's words made her even more excited - the Marquis of Guangping personally came to visit and ask for marriage, what a big face!
But what about the sneaky persecution before?
She was surprised and worried in her heart, but she heard Bihe say again: "Our Hou Ye personally greeted the door, and I heard that I had a good conversation with the Marquis of Guangping." ā
"That's good, that's good!"
Mother Qin's heart was even more determined, and the smile on her face was almost unbearable - the marriage should have been a secret conversation between female dependents, but the Marquis of Guangping was Princess Yong'an, and the princess was Jun. Light yƬ can't descend to the courtier's mansion, so this matter can only let the Marquis of Guangping go out in person, and of course the people who go to receive it from the Marquis of Jining should also be equal.
Guangsheng has a good relationship with Ruyao, and he is the most sparse and bold character, with him coming forward, the wrists of those women in the back house are not enough to look at at all - this is not only Mother Qin, but even Ruyao's face is frosty and melts, revealing a shallow smile.
Bihe jumped up and down to inquire so much, and her mouth was dry for a long time, and the room was quiet for a while. All I heard was the clatter of her teacup.
Xiao Gu hid under the window, and inexplicably felt a little strange in his heart - Yuan Jian once swore that he had a marriage contract with him, but he and Ruyao also had a family affair that they had made since childhood.
Two marriages, one is a jade pendant as a mark, and the other is a semi-circular jade piece of one person and a half - the Yuan family has a lot of jade, and they are often taken out as tokens.
Yuan Jin's cold but deep gaze appeared in front of her eyes, and such a burning and ardent light stared directly at her. Moisturizing silent care and help...... Is this qiÄ because of the joy of her, or because of the ethereal marriage contract?
One day in the future, will he treat Ruyao like this?
She couldn't help but shake her head. Throwing away all these chaotic thoughts, I heard that Mother Qin in the room was thanking the heavens, "Finally, the clouds are open and the moon is bright." ā
"What a prominent family is the Marquis of Guangping, do they really want to marry me? Isn't there anything strange about this? ā
Ruyao was happy. Inevitably a little worried, Mother Qin also restrained her smile and sighed, "If Madame is there." With only the tables at both ends of their heads, this marriage will have to be resummed - but now, those filthy villains are waiting to dig a piece of meat from us, and now they are calculating money, and they are afraid that they will sell Sister Yao as goods next. ā
"Mom!"
Seeing Ruyao's pale face and shaky figure, Bi He screamed in protest against Qin's mother: "You are too alarmist. ā
"I've been in this Hou Mansion for more than 20 years, what is the temperament of the master's family, do you still don't know? Mrs. Tai and the poisonous woman in the second room have taken away your dowry, and in order to gag your mouth, they will definitely marry you away......"
Mother Qin's expression was a little solemn and worried, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Either to fill the house for the old high-ranking officials, or to marry those who behave tyrannically and misbehaps, they have done this kind of thing more than once!" ā
"Mrs. Tai originally had four concubines in front of her, but now except for Mrs. Wugu, the rest are thousands of miles away, and there have been two consecutive funerals in the past two years."
Mother Qin's understatement completely made Ruyao's heart sink to the bottom, and she stumbled, but stood firm.
"What does mom mean that this family affair in the Marquis of Guangping Mansion is already the best and most appropriate?"
Mother Qin nodded, looking at her with a soft and sad gaze - she knew that this child had been wronged, but she could only persuade her to accept the reality and accept the best destination at present, "At least the Guangping Marquis Mansion will not have any intentions against you." ā
The Marquis of Guangping is a favorite minister today, a great general on the battlefield, and a respected horse, with a rich family background, so naturally he will not take Ruyao's dowry in his eyes.
"Miss, you are born with both talent and beauty, if Yuan Er Gongzi sees you, he will definitely like it. Even if there are people in the Nahou Mansion who are dissatisfied with you, as long as you calm down and slowly rein in your husband's heart, you will be able to gain a firm foothold. ā
Mother Qin remembered the tragedy of the first Mrs. Zhang, and deeply felt that if she wanted to be invincible in the back house, she had to coax her husband or hold it in the palm of her hand.
When she went to the Hou Mansion, she inquired carefully - it was rumored that although this son had a cold temperament, he was very clean and self-conscious, and he did not even have a room around him, so he should be a reliable candidate for a husband.
"I understand what my mother said - if I can get out of the quagmire of the Shen family, I will definitely honor my in-laws and serve my husband."
Ruyao smiled slightly, her eyes wandered and looked at Mother Qin and Bihe, "When the time comes, you come with me, and I will support my mother." ā
"Sister Yao'er......"
Mother Qin was moved, the atmosphere in the room became slightly relaxed, Xiao Gu didn't want to listen anymore, turned around to leave, and suddenly sighed in her heart, and remembered a possibility-
The Yuan family first refused to recognize the marriage, and then they were busy asking for marriage, and what they wanted was not people or property, but ...... That half a piece of jade!
Together, the two jade pieces can open the wooden box!!
Xiao Gu's body trembled, and his brows furrowed tightly - could it be that the Yuan family was also interested in this wooden box?
How did they know about it?
The whole event...... It seems to be getting more and more mysterious and complicated. (To be continued......)
