Chapter 189: Difficult
The arrogant third master and the fourth master ran away with their families without saying anything, Qu Miaoling was still a little puzzled, but immediately she heard that the third master took the fourth master to beg the old lady that night, but the old lady asked her to beat him out.
The reason is because the two of them actually wanted to find her Ruyi Lang Junke, but Na Lang Jun was an idle person, but the family had a little bit of money, which made the old man not angry.
It is said that the old lady had already said that if they dared to mention this matter again, they would cut off the monthly payment of their mansion, and these two people were incapable, so they relied on the help of the Hou Mansion to live.
Hearing that they still dare to be presumptuous, they ran away.
"Miss, the old lady is really good to you." Qu Miaoling smiled, how could she not know about it?
Wudehou's Mansion finally quieted down, but Situ Huaiju's side was in big trouble.
That day, after Qu Miaoling left, he returned to his mansion, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, when Wen Qingruo was saved by him, her reaction was too strange, and he couldn't help but wonder if the other party recognized him.
Thinking about it like this, Situ Huaiju felt even more wrong, and just when he hesitated, Wen Qingruo sent someone to send a letter.
"Qingruo respectfully thanks the life-saving benefactor, and please go to Xiangmanlou to gather."
Situ Huai immediately burned the letter, and his gaze became even more unfathomable under the reflection of the firelight.
Situ Huai looked at the paper ashes and ordered in a cold voice: "Go and tell the person who came to deliver the letter, just say that the king of this county can't understand what he is saying." ”
Even if Wen Qingruo recognized herself, she would never admit it.
But just now I saw Wen Qingruo's self-proclaimed, weird, as if he was talking to his lover.
Situ Huaiju's brows were furrowed, Wen Qingruo was interested in the second child of the Min family, but now he was lying on the bed, and he didn't know if his body could recover, he used to be loyal to Wen Qingruo, and he was a good girl, but now he looks-
Situ Huaiju's brows furrowed even tighter, this girl saw that one loved the other, even if he was her savior, he didn't ask her to make a personal promise.
"Your Highness, what should we do?"
The subordinate asked.
"Hold still."
Situ Huai decided that as long as he refused to admit it, even if Wen Qingruo chased and intercepted him, there was no way.
Wen Qingruo sent out the letter, and he had been anxiously waiting for a reply.
Even the personal maid beside her didn't know why her young lady knew the second prince.
However, looking at her own young lady's face of a young girl, the maidservant girl faintly understood something in her heart.
"Miss, don't you like Second Young Master Min?"
This maid grew up with Wen Qingruo since she was a child, and she said that the young lady would not be angry about some things.
Wen Qingruo glanced at his personal maid, didn't say anything, but her smile became sweeter.
At that time, the second prince suddenly descended like a fairy, and knocked Situ Gaoren to the ground with one move, and her heart was pounding and beating non-stop, even stronger than she saw Min Tian beating.
At that time, she knew that this man she wanted - to take it for herself.
She couldn't help but think in her heart, and she didn't know if she had deliberately smoked the fragrance of plum blossoms on the letterhead, whether Situ Huai had smelled it, and whether he could feel his heart.
Just when Wen Qingruo was entangled and apprehensive in his heart, the little guy who delivered the letter came back.
"Does His Royal Highness the Second Prince have a reply?" Wen Qingruo stood up excitedly.
But the little guy hung his head and said, "His Royal Highness Miss, who sent a message, saying that you should not disturb him in the future." ”
"What?"
Wen Qingruo was shocked, he didn't even think to himself, why did he save himself that day?
Or is she too proactive? Is the other party shy?
Wen Qingruo's heart was in turmoil.
On that day, she and the god who saved her looked at each other, and the other's eyes were very bright, and even though it was night, she seemed to see a warm glow in it, illuminating her bleak world.
Although she is the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and her mother is the noble Wang, but in this Prime Minister's Mansion, she is not happy, her father and the old lady are very fond of Wen Qingqian, but they are a little ignorant of themselves, no matter how good she is and how filial she is, they don't seem to be able to see it.
On that day, at the moment when Situ Huai jumped out to save herself, she felt that the flower in her heart seemed to be in full bloom.
"No, he must have something to refuse me, it must be."
Wen Qingruo thought secretly in his heart.
Because Qu Ting came back in a hurry, the old lady hadn't seen her son for a long time, and when the old marquis was still there, she also loved this second son very much, and now the emperor also allowed her to go home, the old lady was also happy, and quickly asked her subordinates to clean up the house, so that Qu Ting could move in with her family.
Wu Dehou discussed with the old lady and planned to let Qu Ting live in Xiyuan.
Xiyuan is a good place, feng shui or landscape, but it has not been inhabited for a long time, and it is a little dilapidated, but it is still very neat to clean up.
Thinking like this, Wu Dehou went to discuss with the Wen family, but who knew that as soon as his words came out, the Wen family changed his way to refuse.
"Master Hou, don't be angry first, listen to the concubine tell you first, this Xiyuan is indeed good, but you also know that the Hou Mansion has been an eventful time these days, and now the accounts in the mansion are already beyond their means, and it is already very difficult to maintain the operation of the Hou Mansion, if you allocate money to repair the yard at this time, I am afraid it will be ......."
Wen said and glanced up at Wu Dehou.
Sure enough, the other party's expression immediately became hesitant after hearing this.
Wen snickered in his heart, sure enough, when it comes to his own interests, Hou Ye doesn't care about his younger brother, it's good to be able to manage himself with his selfishness.
Sure enough, I never mentioned to him about repairing the yard again.
Turning his head, Wu Dehou went to tell his mother about it, and it happened that Qu Miaoling was also there.
"Old lady, it's really not that my son is unwilling to take out the money, it's really difficult in the Hou Mansion, didn't Miao Ling have to leave all the dowry some time ago? With such a large amount of money spent, the account office is now crumbling. ”
Wu Dehou blamed all the fault on Qu Miaoling, and when Qu Miaoling heard it, he immediately said: "If you say so, then no one is willing to take out the dowry of their mother's relatives to save the emergency." ”
"How can this be done, the dowry of the county lord of Huiling is in the hands of Miao Ling, and it will not be able to be taken back, so that our Hou Mansion still has some majesty in the upper circle."
The old lady slammed the table and said angrily.
"Mama Qiao, you go and take out my mention, and repair the West Garden."
A look of hesitation flashed on Mama Qiao's face, but she immediately obeyed and went over to fetch it.
"How can the old lady use your money!" Wu Dehou waved his hand again and again, didn't this let outsiders poke his backbone and say that he was not filial!
Although he is selfish, he also wants to be faced.
Hearing this, the old lady glared at him and said, "Could it be that Master Hou has any other way?" ”
Wu Dehou stopped talking.
"The account room in the house has always been managed by the Wen family in the past, how can this make ends meet, the old man only knows until now."
The old lady patted the table, she was not stupid, this huge Hou Mansion had a lot of inputs, how could she not even get the money to repair the garden.
When Wu Dehou heard this, he was also surprised in his heart, when Wen told him last night, he didn't react at the time, and now after the old lady dialed it a little, he was also a little suspicious of Wen's words.
The yard was originally intact and was repaired quickly.
Qu Ting moved in with his family.
Seeing Ma again, this aunt of mine is a good talker, and she is also very gentle and thoughtful, and Qu Miaoling got along with her very well in the past few days in Ganzhou.
Therefore, when Ma came with his children, Qu Miaoling went out to greet him, and the two talked for a while, without feeling unfamiliar at all.
The old lady was also happy in her heart, and nothing made her feel more comfortable than the joy of the family.
Without the disturbance of those annoying concubines and concubines, the old lady has been in a good mood these days, and the second son who she has been unable to let go of has also returned, and the old lady is even happier in her heart.
On this day, she walked in the garden with Qu Miaoling, she took her granddaughter's hand and said: "Miaoling, you are about to be in a hurry, according to the rules, I should hold a banquet for you, so that you can get to know these noble girls in the capital, even if you get married in the future: these people are also good connections." ”
Of course, Qu Miaoling agreed, and when the old lady heard this, she decisively asked people to invite Wu Dehou over and discuss it with him.
At first, Wu Dehou was reluctant to hold a banquet, and if he held a banquet, he would have to spend a lot of money, but Wen said that now the house is unable to make ends meet, where will the money come from?
But immediately the old lady said again: "Holding a banquet for Miaoling is also giving you a long face, whose daughter is fifteen years old, and she hasn't even held a banquet, and it is your face that you lose when you say it, and it is the face of the Hou Mansion." ”
"That's true, but old lady, you also know the current situation in the mansion, let's do it simply, anyway, there is still a period of time before Miao Ling and Lu."
The old lady glanced at Wu Dehou helplessly, and nodded in agreement.
With permission, Qu Miaoling immediately began to prepare a banquet list.
All the princes must be invited, the daughter of the Wang family must also be invited, and Yue Yang, who is good friends with him, including the second princess Situ Chasing the moon, and she will let the people below do the rest, anyway, they are all people in the capital, and those people are invited to come.
When Wu Dehou told Wen about this, Wen's face was full of expressions, but in the end she agreed with a smile on her face, and said that she was willing to organize it for Qu Miaoling.
Wu Dehou listened, and his doubts about the Wen family were also dispelled.
"Miss, this money is very small, and Xue Ying, let's not invite it, they said that about you last time!" looked at the roster gently, and couldn't help but feel unfair for his own young lady.
"This list is the old lady's read, and these women you invited are also from one of the best families in the capital."
Gently understood, just to invite over, not to befriend them.
On this day, the banquet was held as scheduled, Qu Miaoling changed into the red dress that was ordered in advance, and the old lady now gradually realized that Qu Miaoling has a soft spot for red astringency, and this dress was also purchased by her subordinates herself, which is very in line with Qu Miaoling's intentions.
Seeing her flower-like granddaughter coming, the old lady smiled so much that she couldn't see her teeth.
There were still a little tears in her eyes, and Qu Miaoling, who was watching it, couldn't help but feel sour: "Grandmother, why are you crying, your granddaughter is not married." ”
When she said this, the old lady's tears were even more fierce.
The old lady patted the back of Qu Miaoling's hand, looking very reluctant.
"You're a good girl, no matter who you marry, it's not bad, okay, don't be here with me, an old woman, go talk to those young people, have fun, and have fun."
"Then don't cry, or I'll come back to you later."
The old lady burst into tears and laughed, "Let's go, let's go, don't delay." ”
Qu Miaoling left, and Mama Qiao handed over the handkerchief with great eyes, "Old lady, what are you sad about, today is a big day." ”
"I'm so sad, I'm happy!" The old lady has always liked duplicity, but the clever mother didn't point it out.
Qu Miaoling walked into the garden, and she was surprised to find that many of the people who came today were even more than those marked on her roster.
When did she see such a famous person in the capital?
But after thinking about it, Qu Miaoling understood that these people should see that they had to be crowned county lords and come to pull the relationship.
After everyone arrived, there was a noisy voice in front of the Hou Mansion, "Her Royal Highness the Second Princess has arrived." A little guy shouted.
Qu Miaoling hurriedly greeted him, but everyone was surprised.
