Chapter 166: A Woman's Heart Needle (Asking for Subscription)
The old and unashamed Hong Chengchou backtracked, obviously marrying his daughter to Mao Wenlong if he lost the bet. But when Mao Wenlong mentioned it, the old guy put forward another embarrassing condition.
Mao Wenlong couldn't convince him, so he could only pray to go back and persuade Hong Ziyan as a client. In his opinion, the old stubborn, unreasonable, unable to communicate.
Then it should be better to talk to Hong Ziyan, who is also a young man, so Mao Wenlong rushed back to Mao's mansion to have a good talk with Hong Ziyan.
A home needs harmony, and a home that is not harmonious is not a good home. Mao Wenlong has always valued family harmony, because he knows that only a harmonious family will make him willing to pay and take on his responsibilities.
Chen Lan is gentle and virtuous, a good woman, and she never abandons him, and is a wife who suffers together. And although Hong Ziyan is a little younger than Chen Lan, she is also a beautiful girl, polite and humble, and can be regarded as a confidant in Mao Wenlong's opinion.
The two women have their own advantages, and each has its own attraction to Mao Wenlong, so in this evil feudal society, he is ready to enjoy the blessings of Qi people according to the customs.
He wants both, and no one is allowed to escape, all men in the world are lustful, and those who are not lustful are not called men. So Mao Wenlong is at ease, and in this feudal system, he is in line with the trend by doing so.
Rushing back to Mao's mansion, Mao Wenlong left the stubborn old man Hong Chengchou and rushed to the backyard quickly.
The two daughters are in Hong Ziyan's boudoir at the moment, and Hong Ziyan is teaching Chen Lan to read. The two are now learning from each other, and Chen Lan teaches Hong Ziyan to cook at home.
And Hong Ziyan taught Chen Lanqin chess, calligraphy and painting, these things that only the housekeeper and the eldest lady can do. This is the pastime of the two girls in their free time!
Seeing Mao Wenlong, Chen Lan, and Hong Ziyan who came in a hurry, they all greeted him.
Chen Lan saw Mao Wenlong's forehead sweating, and immediately turned around and got a towel to wipe his sweat, and Hong Ziyan was also considerate, and immediately served tea and poured water.
Enjoying the meticulous service of the two daughters, Mao Wenlong's face was full of happiness. It is said that if a man has the ability, he will not love his family, Mao Wenlong wants to beat the person who said this.
If there is such a virtuous wife and lover in the family, and he will enjoy the treatment of the emperor as soon as he returns home, there will be a bastard man who will be distracted and will not love his family.
Only those men who are not loved and respected at home will spend their minds on women outside!
Chen Lan finished his work, so he sat beside him with Hong Ziyan and asked with a smile: "Xianggong, didn't you just hear from the housekeeper that you went to the farm with Uncle Hong?" Why did this come back? ”
Mao Wenlong quickly glanced at Hong Ziyan, then shook his head and said, "Because of Ziyan and my marriage, the two of us broke down again." ”
Hong Ziyan's face changed dramatically, and she exclaimed in surprise: "Has my father repented again?" ”
Even the words came out, which shows that Hong Chengchou has indeed fooled Mao Wenlong like this more than once.
In fact, sometimes Mao Wenlong really doesn't understand what Hong Chengchou thinks in his heart, and now his relationship with Hong Ziyan is undisguised. The entire Ye County knew that Hong Ziyan was the woman who wanted to marry Mao Wenlong.
But Hong Chengchou still used this matter to pinch Mao Wenlong, and did not let him marry Hong Ziyan smoothly. In Mao Wenlong's opinion, Hong Chengchou's difficulty has no benefit other than delaying her marriage with Hong Ziyan.
Of course, if you want to be more serious, Hong Chengchou is a father, so fighting for his daughter's reputation really can't say that he is wrong to do so.
But the problem is that Hong Chengchou is not really for Zi Yan's good now, but for his face. And this is why Mao Wenlong is so angry.
Mao Wenlong looked at Zi Yan, who became excited, and said helplessly: "He didn't regret it, but just put forward a condition that I couldn't do." ”
"On what terms?" Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan asked in unison.
Mao Wenlong hesitated, originally he wanted to ask about this matter separately in private. But this will be in front of the two of them, if he says it, the relationship between the two is very good, I don't know if it will be affected.
He looked at Chen Lan and then at Hong Ziyan, hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't decide whether to say it or not.
This is not only Hong Ziyan is anxious, but even Chen Lan is also anxious. It is rare for a situation like Mao Wenlong to hesitate, and whenever such a situation occurs, it means that things are very big.
"Xianggong, what conditions did Uncle Hong mention, tell me quickly!" Chen Lan couldn't wait, so he simply opened his mouth to urge.
was forced to be anxious, Mao Wenlong let go, anyway, he had to say it slowly: "He said that if I want to marry Ziyan, I must marry as a wife, otherwise he will not agree to this marriage." ”
Hong Ziyan was so surprised that her mouth opened so much that she could stuff a whole egg.
But Chen Lan's face changed greatly, and he was instantly shocked, and looked at Mao Wenlong in a daze!
Hong Ziyan slowly came to her senses, and she said uncertainly: "My father really said that?" ”
Mao Wenlong was very helpless, shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you don't believe it, you can ask your father in person." ”
Hong Ziyan looked at Chen Lan, and then at Mao Wenlong, who looked helpless. Judging from Mao Wenlong's performance at the moment, she already understood that Mao Wenlong did not agree to her father's request.
Hong Ziyan's first reaction was sadness, and then when she saw Chen Lan's uncertain face, she suddenly felt that she was very shameless just now.
didn't know what to say, Hong Ziyan finally chose to escape temporarily, she said to Mao Wenlong: "I'll ask Daddy." ”
With these words, Hong Ziyan quickly ran away from the door, she was afraid that she would stay any longer, and she didn't know how to face Chen Lan later.
No matter how she says it, she belongs to a latecomer, and she really shouldn't treat Chen Lan like this. But Hong Ziyan felt that Mao Wenlong didn't pay enough attention to herself, after all, she didn't agree to her father's request.
Hong Ziyan was very conflicted in her heart, she was already six gods and no master, so she chose to escape temporarily.
There were only two people left in the room, Chen Lan and Mao Wenlong, after seeing Hong Ziyan leave, Mao Wenlong sighed lightly and said firmly: "Xiaolan, don't worry, in the end, I can't marry Ziyan, and I won't do that thing that people and gods are angry about." No matter what, you will always be my wife Mao Wenlong, there is no doubt about that. ”
Mao Wenlong's assurance was like a clear spring, washing away the worries in Chen Lan's heart, and let her understand Mao Wenlong's love for herself.
Chen Lan slowly walked in front of Mao Wenlong, and then threw himself into his arms, tears fell down his eyes, and he choked and said: "Xianggong, Xiaolan knows that you love me, and I can't do without Xianggong." ”
Mao Wenlong hugged Chen Lan tightly with his backhand, patted her on the back, and whispered: "Don't cry, fool, everything is fair!" ”
Chen Lan hummed softly, and then confided: "Xiao Lan is now unaccompanied, since Xiang Gong saved me, Xiao Lan has regarded Xiang Gong as the only support in this world. Without Xianggong, Xiaolan doesn't know if he still has the courage to live. ”
seemed to touch the softness of his heart, Chen Lan cried so much in an instant that he couldn't stop at all.
Mao Wenlong is most afraid of women crying, and when he sees a woman crying, he will have no master. didn't know what he should do in an instant, Mao Wenlong could only continue to be afraid of Chen Lan's back, and then hugged her tightly and gave her a safe and warm embrace.
After venting, Chen Lan gradually calmed down, broke away from Mao Wenlong's embrace, wiped away his tears, and found that the placket on Mao Wenlong's chest had been wet.
Chen Lan, who was a little embarrassed, had two red glows flying on his pretty face, and then said softly: "Actually, Xiaolan only needs to know that Xianggong has me in his heart." If Zi Yan also wants to marry her as a wife, you can agree to her. ”
Mao Wenlong looked at Chen Lan in a daze, and from her expression, Mao Wenlong could see that Chen Lan's words just now were sincere, not just polite words.
Unexpectedly, Chen Lan was able to give up his identity as a wife, which made Mao Wenlong very moved. From here, Mao Wenlong has deeply understood how deep Chen Lan's love for himself is.
The greatest thing about love is selfless dedication, only if a person loves another person to the extreme, she will choose to sacrifice herself to fulfill others.
There is no doubt that Chen Lan loves Mao Wenlong, and Mao Wenlong will naturally not let Chen Lan suffer any harm or grievances. In the face of Chen Lan's retreat just now, Mao Wenlong felt that he couldn't let her suffer this loss.
Shaking his head, Mao Wenlong said firmly: "No, this matter is not negotiable, you will always be my wife, this is a fact that cannot be changed." On Zi Yan and Uncle Hong's side, I will find a way to convince them, if they have to insist, then I would rather not marry than let you suffer such a grievance. ”
"Xianggong...... Woo! Chen Lan was so moved by Mao Wenlong that he threw himself into his arms again and cried to death.
Mao Wenlong fell into a hurry again, and it took a long time to calm down Chen Lan's emotions again. After that, the two snuggled quietly, and Mao Wenlong didn't dare to say anything more, for fear of making Chen Lan cry again.
After Hong Ziyan left Chen Lan and Mao Wenlong, she really hurriedly found Hong Chengchou, who had just returned.
"Dad, how can you make such a request to Brother Mao, aren't you embarrassing me and making me unable to raise my head in front of Sister Chen Lan?" Hong Ziyan was very angry, on the way here just now, she had already figured it out, and she couldn't let her father mess around like this.
Hong Chengchou faced Hong Ziyan's questioning, but he was still indifferent, and chuckled: "Silly girl, you forgot your father if you have a lover!" Daddy didn't do it for your own good. ”
Hong Ziyan was not sure that her father was harming herself, she calmed down her emotions before she said: "My daughter knows that her father is for my good, but isn't it difficult for her father to ask for this?" ”
"What's so difficult, isn't it difficult for Dad, isn't this to test that kid Mao Wenlong? If you want to know if he really cares about you, you can try it out depending on what he does. But this kid refused at the time, so now I suspect that the kid doesn't value you at all. ”
Hong Chengchou was rejected by Mao Wenlong at that time, and he really suspected that Mao Wenlong did not pay attention to his daughter. At first, he did hold a temptation, but later because of Mao Wenlong's resoluteness, the two finally broke up unhappily.
"But Daddy, aren't you embarrassing Brother Mao by using such a method to test him? Besides, if you test the law like this, how will I face Sister Xiaolan in the future? During the time I spent with Sister Xiaolan, I knew her very well, and she was not a person who valued her reputation. ”
Faced with his daughter's ignorance, Hong Chengchou directly rolled his eyes, and said helplessly: "You stupid girl, you don't understand Daddy's hard work for your good, you still blame Daddy now, right?" ”
Hong Ziyan was originally a good girl, and her education since she was a child told her that she couldn't disobey her father. Especially in this kind of emotional matter, as a daughter, she doesn't have the slightest right to speak.
She had already disobeyed before, and she did not hesitate to disobey her father for the sake of Mao Wenlong, because she was really optimistic about Mao Wenlong. However, the things in front of him are not as good as before, as Hong Chengchou said just now, he is tempting, not disagreeing with Zi Yan and Mao Wenlong being together.
Under such a premise, Hong Ziyan has no right to disobey her father. Hong Ziyan was very helpless, but she still wanted to try her best to convince her father, at least let him try it in another way, which was better than the current way.
"Dad, my daughter is not blaming my father, but my daughter understands Brother Mao and believes that he is not such a villain. So the daughter begged her father to change another way to test Brother Mao. ”
retreated to the second, and this is also within Hong Ziyan's ability to do so.
Hong Chengchou hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head and said, "No, this matter has to come like this, there is no reason to ask my father to make concessions." Even if he wants to make concessions, he Mao Wenlong will give in! ”
Hong Chengchou's temper also came up, as a future father-in-law, he completely felt that he couldn't give in the slightest in this 'battle'.
Hong Ziyan's eyes were red, and she almost cried urgently: "Dad, can you just listen to your daughter this time?" ”
Hong Chengchou was very resolute, shook his head and said: "There is no need to discuss, go and tell Mao Wenlong's kid that if you want to marry you, you will do what I want, otherwise, there is nothing to talk about." ”
Looking at her father's resolute appearance, Hong Ziyan understood that there was no result if she continued to beg, and with red eyes, she finally chose to give up.
When she returned to her room and saw that Mao Wenlong and Chen Lan were still waiting for her, Hong Ziyan was a little embarrassed on her face, and said squirmingly: "Brother Mao, Sister Xiaolan, I'm sorry, I can't convince Daddy." ”
Mao Wenlong frowned: "Is your father still so insistent?" ”
Hong Ziyan nodded frustratedly: "He also asked me to tell you that if you want to marry me, you must come according to his wishes, otherwise you won't talk about it." ”
After a pause, Hong Ziyan still mustered up the courage to apologize to Chen Lan: "Sister Xiaolan, I'm sorry, it's all my father's fault, please don't blame him." And I really didn't mean that, please don't blame me, sister! ”
Chen Lan got up and pulled Hong Ziyan to sit down, and chuckled: "Silly girl, how can my sister blame you!" And I don't blame your father, after all, he is also thinking about you. ”
