Volume 2 Chapter 67 Yan Chi is a fierce rival
Mrs. Wang was a little impatient with Peng He's frequent visits, she was not distressed because of the few pots of ice offerings consumed to entertain the guests, but she knew that Peng He's intention was actually for Peng Zizhan's marriage - the old lady regretted marrying the eldest daughter of Wang Bai's family, and Mrs. Wang didn't dare to explain this matter to Peng He's family, after all, although she knew that Peng He's would complain in her heart, she definitely didn't dare to put her grievances out, let alone publicize it everywhere.
It's just that first Qin Fangqi, and then the daughter of the Wang family, agreed verbally twice in a row and then regretted it again, Peng Zizhan's marriage actually had a "responsibility" for Mrs. Wang, Peng He asked Mrs. Wang to be the matchmaker, and Mrs. Wang really couldn't refuse.
After all, Peng Jianxiao and his wife are both villains, and Mrs. Wang knows how to offend the villain to death may cause unexpected trouble.
She shook the fan and listened to Peng He's chatter and flattery, until she introduced the topic to Peng Zizhan, and then said lightly: "I heard that your family's Liulang and Zhang's Xiaolang have always been good, Zhang Xiaolang's sister, last Dragon Boat Festival with the Zhang family's lady to the palace, I also looked at it twice, the appearance is extremely beautiful, the etiquette is also good, the Zhang family lady also specially said that her daughter is October and Xu, since this is the case, you must not be married, since you two families are good, why don't you marry a child, Isn't that a good thing? ”
Peng He felt choked in his heart.
The wife of the Zhang family brought her daughter to the Xiangdi during the Dragon Boat Festival, and the idea was to marry the Xiangdi, thinking that although Mrs. Wang's eldest son was the eldest grandson of the Xiangdi, he was born weak, and the marriage was not easy, and there was no chance to take advantage of it.
Mrs. Wang pushed the daughter of the Zhang family to their Peng family......
How can a woman from a merchant background be worthy of an official family like them?
He smiled and said: "Madam does have a good eye, but the lady of the Zhang family has always had high eyes, I am afraid that she can't look down on the puppy and is still a white body." ”
"She does have other thoughts, but if I open my mouth, the lady of the Zhang family will have to give me a little bit of thin face as a matchmaker." Mrs. Wang naturally knew that it was Peng He's who was really over-eyed, so she said bluntly: "The Zhang family used to be a businessman, but the head of their family donated his official body early in the morning, and seeing that the official family had already sent Dr. Xin to Beijing for peace talks, there will definitely be no changes in peace talks this time." No matter how you talk about the conditions, the Chinese New Year's Eve million yuan this year is unavoidable, and the treasury has this expense in vain, and the nobles such as officials and saints can't shrink their clothes and diet, right? Defeng treasury, will encourage more wealthy businessmen to donate officials, the head of the Zhang family has been good at speculation since the beginning, has been raising a large amount of official funds to entrust the minister to pay tribute for him, seeing, the head of the Zhang family is about to get real power and vacancy. ”
What this means is that the Zhang family's career will not lose to the Peng family.
Mrs. Wang caught a glimpse of Peng He's eyes and finally moved, and there was a little smile on her face: "The Zhang family is rich, and the married daughter will be accompanied by a sumptuous makeup, although the official eunuch family is more noble and will not be moved by wealth, but now in such a situation, no one can say what will happen in the future, after all, the family has more silver silk, and the heart is more down-to-earth, so that you can serve the monarch more wholeheartedly, in my opinion, if the two of you get married, it can really be said to be a perfect match." ”
In fact, it is a hint to Peng He's family, your family is poor, but the Zhang family has a lot of money, your family wants to have Zhang's dowry, and it will be twice the result with half the effort if you go around and bribe high-ranking officials, Peng Jianxiao's official rank will be promoted, Peng Zizhan's future will be smoother, and besides, with a daughter-in-law from a wealthy background, won't the family situation be improved? As for how hot the day is, I complained that the ice supply had risen by 20 yuan?
Peng He was completely moved by Mrs. Wang's words.
As soon as he got home that evening, Peng He happily told his son about it.
When Peng Zizhan heard that the "prospective wife's room" had been changed to the daughter of the Zhang family again, he almost choked on tears from a mouthful of cold water, and looked at his mother pitifully, but he didn't dare to say the word "unhappy" - does Mrs. Wang really have eyes? How did she see that the Zhang family girl was "extremely beautiful"? Zhang Xiaoniang is just like her brother, short and fat, and there are a lot of yellow spots on her face at the age of youth!
And Zhang Xiaoniang's temperament is exactly the same as Zhang Jiazi, shallow and vulgar, and if you say a word to her, you feel that you are also tainted with cheesiness.
Besides, isn't the daughter of the Zhang family from a businessman? If he wants to marry such a wife who has to be born without a background and has no good looks, he is simply useless, won't he be laughed at by the children of the family?
Peng Zizhan didn't dare to disobey his parents' orders, so he had to secretly complain in his heart: If Sanniang hadn't been greedy for vanity, she and I would have exchanged Geng posts now, but because of her thoughts, not only did she be disgusted by her mother, but it was difficult to hope that the marriage could be happy, and even more angry was that even I was dragged down by her.
Fang Qi didn't sense Peng Zizhan's complaints, on this bright evening, she and Xiao Niang just sent Yan Chi away as an uninvited guest, and because the two brothers and sisters of Xu also consciously followed each other to "send off", E Ni was reluctant to be alone, so this "send-off" team became a bit spectacular.
But Yan Chi didn't feel that it was difficult to accept such hospitality, his expression did not change, and he only bowed to Su Xiaoniang, and actually invited: "Although my grange is not much interesting, but in Tianzhong Mountain, there is also a secluded garden mountain pavilion I built. ”
Aromatic period: !!
To be honest, Yan Chi really waited until the evening to say goodbye because of the little lady's politeness today, and now he actually took the initiative to say that he wanted to return to the host? When did Yan Wudu become so polite and polite? He had eaten all his own meals for nothing, but he never said that he would return the invitation!
System: Dear, the side quest has risen by two points, which means that Yan Chi's disgust with you has been reduced a little.
Fang Period: It's because I ate my peanut feast, it's really not easy, Yan Wutuno even has times when he eats people's soft mouths.
System: Dear, Xiaoyi doesn't think it's because of you...... Xiao Yi sensed that Yan Chi had a very good impression of Su Xiaoniang, I am afraid that ...... The pro is stained with the light of your little lady.
Aromatic period: ......
Well, I have to admit that I can't compare to Xiao Niang's wisdom and courage, how majestic Xiao Niang is, but even the prince of Liao is a character who is extremely admired, where is this achievement that can be achieved just by virtue of a good appearance, the first emperor and the harem concubines, which one is not as beautiful as a fairy? And who has been courteous to the Liao people? They can still have no worries about food and clothing in Liao, and they are not simply trapped in prison, all of which have a share of the credit of the little mother.
There is no comparison, but Yan Chi's "love house and Wu" actually only has two points of progress?
Fang Qi was pondering, and her arm was down, the pain was not painful, what made her inexplicable was that she didn't know why Mingjiao did something to her, and subconsciously looked at Second Brother Xu, wanting to get some hints from him, but she didn't know that Second Brother Xu seemed to ...... How to look at how a little melancholy.
"We were just discussing taking advantage of the fact that our son is not so hot at this time, and let Ah Qi take us around to have a good time, so as to enjoy this beautiful rural scenery, how do you seem to have not heard it, and patronized it in a daze." Mingjiao was also a little melancholy, because Fang Qi was clearly watching Yan Chi's car in a daze.
Today, Yan Sanlang of the Yiguo Mansion is more attentive to Su Xiaoniang than her brother, and seems to be interested in showing his knowledge, and he can talk eloquently about the customs and customs of many places, Mingjiao feels that Yan Chi is deliberately in the limelight and attracts Fang Qi's attention, her brother's intuition is good, Yan Chi is really a strong opponent.
In order to help his brother, Mingjiao took the initiative to hold Su Xiaoniang, pulled Eni to walk in front, and secretly gave his brother a look - I have spared no effort, whether I can turn defeat into victory, it is still you who look at the second brother.
Xu Mingxi didn't receive his sister's eyes at all, his mind was still on Yan Chi, he didn't believe that Yan Chi really planned to come to Fuchun for the summer, because the Duchess of Xiangyang entrusted him to visit the grange of the Xiangdi Mansion, so why didn't Yan Chi leave after handing over the objects to the little lady? Even if it was because of Su Xiaoniang's retention, he waited until the cool evening to set off again, but if he hadn't been flattering Su Xiaoniang, where would Su Xiaoniang be so polite? Not to mention that before leaving, he actually proposed to invite the host!
This must be the drunkard's intention not to drink.
Xu Mingxi couldn't help it: "The third sister was so easy to resolve the conflict with Yan for no reason, for a person like him, he should be more alienated, after all, my aunt and grandfather are now serving as the chief executive, and there is no shortage of people like Yan Wudu, this person's utilitarianism is heavier than Peng Zizhan, and it is not worth befriending." ”
It is definitely not a gentleman's business to talk behind someone's back, but Xu Mingxi now seems to be unable to care about violating the etiquette he has always abided by, and he is anxious when he thinks that Yan Chi may win the heart of his third sister.
Fang Qi looked at the dirt road in the countryside under her feet, and her heart was constantly filled with mixed tastes at this time, she knew that Second Brother Xu had misunderstood, but she was worried that the explanation would make Second Brother Xu have another obsession, she couldn't respond to Second Brother Xu's gradually obvious affection, so did Second Brother Xu misunderstand her intentions towards Yan Chi, and what was the need to explain?
"Yan Saburo took the initiative to invite this time, indicating that he really planned to turn the war into a jade silk, how could I refuse his kindness instead? It's the second brother, if you can't talk to Yan Saburo, you don't have to be reluctant to invite. Fang Qi pretended not to notice Second Brother Xu's mood, and he was ignorant.
"Of course I have to accompany the third sister to the invitation." Xu Mingxi blurted out without hesitation.
"That's okay, Hengzhu Ah Jiao will definitely not miss this excitement, not to mention Ah Jiao, although I am back to Fuchun for the second time, I have never taken the time to go to Tianzhong Mountain to play, the second brother is willing to go, Ah Jiao must be happy."
If Xu Mingxi didn't go, Mingjiao would naturally be inconvenient to go to the appointment of a foreign man, and Fang Qi would attribute Second Brother Xu's urgency to Mingjiao's sake.
Xu Mingxi's footsteps stopped.
But he saw the innocent girl, bending down to pick an ear of grass that could not be named, and playing with it in her hand, the setting sun shone obliquely on one of her shoulders, and the ribbon on her hair danced with the breeze, her steps were light, and her mood should be as relaxed as her steps.
If he is not the best person in her heart, and cannot make her so happy and happy in the future, how can he tell her his affection? is even less qualified to restrain her, let her alienate who and who to get close to.
The important thing is not Yan Chi's good or bad, what matters is whether he can beat Yan Chi and win the third sister, and he is willing to make a lifelong promise.
