Chapter 379: Marrying Cai Yan (I)
In the evening, Wang Xu was busy with Jingnan's mess, and rushed back to the back house in a hurry. I was a little apprehensive and a little excited, and I didn't know what Yan Ming and Xu Shu were talking about.
As soon as he stepped into the main courtyard, he happened to meet Xiaoyu coming out of the side room.
"Huh? Master, are you done? Xiaoyu immediately smiled and saluted.
"Hmmm! Just finished. Wang Xu nodded, but he couldn't help but want to explore the bottom first, and couldn't help but ask softly: "By the way, Xiaoyu, are the guests I invited here today?" ”
"It's been here a long time ago!"
"Then where are Xu Shu and the others now?"
"Oh! The lady is embroidering in the room, and the guest is gone! Xiaoyu replied honestly.
"Gone?"
Seeing Wang Xu's question, Xiaoyu didn't dare to hide it, and immediately nodded and said, "Hmm!" Yes, today the guest arrived not long after the host left, and talked with the host alone in the pavilion in the pool for a long time, but left before noon, and the lady personally sent her out of the house. ”
Wang Xu frowned, and had a faint bad premonition in his heart, so he couldn't help waving his hand: "Okay, you go and get busy with yours!" ”
"Hmm!"
Watching Xiao Yu leave slowly, Wang Xu pondered for a long time before rushing to Xu Shu's room.
"Wife! Are you embroidering again? If it's okay, just rest more, it's tiring to keep this thing going on for a long time. After entering the door, Wang Xu was not in a hurry to ask, but cared about Xu Shulai first.
"Huh! Are you done? Hearing the voice, Xu Shu was still embroidering by herself, and smiled without looking back.
"Yes! I've just finished talking to them. With that, Wang Xu walked over gently, hugged Xu Shu from behind, reached out and snatched the flower cloth and needle and thread in her hand, and put them on the table. Okay, stop embroidering! ”
"Oh, I'm done embroidering here before I can close the needle!" Xu Shu glanced at Wang Xu, but picked it up again.
Wang Xu had no choice but to sit down next to Xu Shu. I would like to inquire. But I don't know how to speak. When her heart was going up and down, Xu Shu suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, don't pretend to be good, you want to know about Yan Ming!" ”
"Ahh Hehe, no, how can it be so urgent. Wang Xu hurriedly denied it.
Xu Shurou smiled softly, but shook her head and said, "Forget it." I don't know what you're thinking? ”
"Huh!"
Seeing that Wang Xu was embarrassed and didn't know what to say, Xu Shu didn't tease him anymore, and after stringing a few stitches again, he quickly tied a knot and put it on the table in front of him.
"Husband. She's gone! ”
"I already know, I heard Xiaoyu say it in the yard just now." Wang Xu said disappreciatively.
Seeing this, Xu Shu shook her head, stared into Wang Xu's eyes and said, "It's not to go back to Xiangshui Pavilion, it's really to go, go back to Hebei!" ”
"What?"
Wang Xu's face changed suddenly, and he was stunned in an instant, he didn't expect the result to be like this. Speechless in a daze.
Looked at. Xu Shu sighed, but said leisurely: "I'll help you stay." But can't keep it! ”
Hearing this, Wang Xu only felt a wave of anger rushing to his mind, and he couldn't tell the feeling of being depressed, so he gritted his teeth and said, "What does she mean by this!" You've left her personally, and you're still walking away so indistinctly, what is that? ”
As he spoke, he stood up abruptly and said angrily: "He didn't leave until noon, and he couldn't go far, so I'll take someone to chase him back." I must ask why? ”
Xu Shu's eyes were quick, and she immediately grabbed Wang Xu's hand and said hurriedly: "Don't!" ”
"Huh?"
Although Wang Xu was very angry at the moment, it just so happened that the only one who could stop him was Xu Shu, who was pulled by Xu Shu like this, he paused, but softened. "Wife, don't you agree?"
"It's not that I don't agree, it's that it's not appropriate!"
Xu Shu knew that Wang Xu was uncomfortable, so she gently pulled him to sit down, and said softly: "Yan Ming has not changed from his thoughts, if you chase after him now, it will only intensify the conflict, she is a good girl, give her a little time!" ”
"But ......"
"Don't be, husband, I know women better than you, it's better not to go now, it's not the time!" Xu Shu shook her head and said.
Wang Xu is not unreasonable, but if he catches up, there will definitely be a dispute, even if he forcibly pulls it back, what is the use. After a long time, he sighed helplessly: "Hey! Heaven can still live for iniquity, but it is impossible to live for oneself, and I am really guilty of my own sin. ”
"Huh! Is it necessary to be so pessimistic? Xu Shu suddenly shook her head with a smile and said: "I can see that she loves you very much, but there are some things she still doesn't understand, and it will get better slowly, I have already told her what should be said, give her some time to get used to it, sooner or later there will be results." ”
Wang Xu shook his head bitterly, and after a while, he said softly: "Wife, I really wronged you!" ”
"Do you still need to say that?" Xu Shu suddenly gave him a blank look.
"I should say, I'm really sorry for you, it's just ......"
"Alright!" Xu Shu suddenly covered Wang Xu's mouth, shook his head and said, "Don't explain, I understand everything!" ”
"But there's something I want to say!"
"You can't tell! Husband, you said that you will never be able to conquer yourself, and you will never be able to become a hero of this era. ”
As she spoke, Xu Shu gently snuggled into Wang Xu's arms, looking up at his cheeks, her eyes flashing a hint of confusion. "In your mind, if Jiangshan and I can only choose one of them, who do you choose?"
"You!" Wang Xu did not hesitate and blurted out: "In this world, there is nothing more important than you, in my heart, you are the best woman in the world!" ”
"That's enough, isn't it?"
Wang Xu trembled, but he didn't say anything again, just hugged Xu Shu so gently, experiencing the kind of love that came from the depths of his soul.
After a long time, Xu Shu smiled, raised her head and said, "Okay, why is it higher and heavier, Yan Ming's matter will always be solved, but now is not the time." On the contrary, Yan'er's affairs have to be done, the family matter has been mentioned for so long, and people are even willing to bow down as concubines, if it is not implemented for a long time, Cai Yong will have ideas! ”
"That's right!" Wang Xu also nodded involuntarily.
But after a while, I couldn't help but quip: "You say, am I really abusive and careful?" ”
"It's okay, I can't blame you for this."
"Who's to blame?"
"Blame it for what you just wanted to explain!" Xu Shu smiled smartly.
"Huh!" Wang Xu smiled, it was really an unprecedented happiness, with such an excellent wife silently supporting him, what reason is there not to be strong......
In the following days, although Wang Xu still felt a faint pain in his heart because of Yan Ming's departure, because he was busy with the gradually unfolding affairs, he had to cheer himself up and temporarily put Yan Ming's affairs in his heart.
And the matter of Na Cai Yan was finally put on the agenda, and after careful discussion with Cai Yong, the date for Na to enter the door was set. Although the concubine does not have to be as heavy as the marriage, Cai Yong is a famous Confucian in the world after all, and Wang Xu also knows that this concubine must at least be etiquetteally married according to the wife.
As time passes, while busy with Jingnan affairs, the marriage is gradually approaching, which is really painful and happy.
In the blink of an eye, there were only three days before the day of taking a concubine, and Wang Xu was reviewing the nearest treasury material dispatch in the study, but Xiao Min suddenly rushed into the study and said in great surprise: "Master, something is wrong, Cai Yan is here!" ”
"What's all the fuss about?" Wang Xu didn't listen carefully because he was focused on the paperwork, so he didn't react for a while.
Xiao Min glanced at Wang Xu suspiciously, but couldn't help but remind: "Master, it's Cai Yan!" ”
"Cai Yan is Cai Yan, you just bring her to my study." Wang Xu replied casually.
But as soon as the words fell, he was suddenly stunned, and then reacted and exclaimed: "You said it's Cai Yan?" ”
"Hmm!" Xiao Min's head suddenly nodded. "Yes, yes! She came in with a veil, and the mistress went to the workshop, and we didn't dare to call the shots. ”
In this era, according to the rules, after setting the wedding date, it is before entering the door, it is absolutely not allowed to see outsiders privately, let alone meet the person who is about to marry. is like Diao Chan, because of the special situation, he is alone, so the world doesn't care, and he has the right to take a maid to see it.
But Cai Yan is different, he is Cai Yong's daughter, and Cai Yong is a famous person today, and he was included in the Jingnan General's Mansion. She entered the house so early, if she was seen by someone with a heart and spread out, it would definitely be passed on by people in private, Cai Yong's reputation was ruined, saying that he raised a shameless daughter.
Thinking of this, Wang Xu suddenly wondered, Cai Yan knows books and etiquette, and is not the kind of girl who doesn't care. It can be said that I haven't been to the General's Mansion for a long time, why did I enter the door in three days, but I couldn't help but run over first?
"Xiaomin, you go and bring her in quickly!"
"No!"
Seeing that Wang Xu was solemn, Xiao Min didn't dare to slack off, so he responded and hurriedly turned around and left.
After a while, Cai Yan, who was wearing a white silk scarf, walked in slowly.
After Wang Xu waved his hand for Xiao Min to close the door and go out, he smiled and said, "Yan'er, why are you here?" ”
Hearing this, Cai Yan didn't speak for a long time, just looked at Wang Xu so fixedly, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.
Just when Wang Xu was inexplicable, Cai Yan finally spoke, and did not answer the question just now, but said softly with resentment: "Brother Xu, Yan'er is married, and she is a concubine!" ”
"Of course I know!" Wang Xu didn't react, and replied naturally.
But as soon as the words came out, he suddenly woke up, judging from Cai Yan's tone, is this unclear that he doesn't know that the person he wants to marry is himself? Could it be that Yan'er is here for......
After a while, seeing Wang Xu's reaction, Cai Yan's eyes became even more sad, but he didn't say anything, and after a long time, he said leisurely: "Brother Xu, can you play a song with the single-pipe dong flute that Yan'er gave you back then?" Yan'er sneaked out today, just to listen to it one last time, is that okay? (To be continued.) )
