Seeing Han Mo's innocent appearance, Mrs. Han was even more angry, stood up, crossed her waist, pinched her handkerchief and pointed at Han Mo and said, "Your father said that you are not a good son, then it is really right." Let me ask you, your father is going to arrange a family affair for you, but you not only disagree, but also contradict your father, is there such a thing? ”

Han Mo smiled bitterly, it turned out that it was really for that matter, it seems that my mother is going to settle accounts after the autumn today.

Han Qin had already said with a smile: "Oh, brother, are you going to marry a daughter-in-law?" Why didn't you tell me? Hee-hee, am I about to have a sister-in-law? ”

Han Mo glared at Han Qin, "Go, go, little kids, come here and mix something." ”

Han Qin pouted and said angrily: "I'm kind, you still scold me, isn't it good to marry a daughter-in-law?" Aunt Bi hurriedly said: "Qin'er, Mo Hu said that my brother's marriage is decided by the old lady." ”

Mrs. Han walked up to Han Mo with a smile, sat down on the chair beside him, and asked with a smile, "Mo'er, have you seen the young lady of the Xiao family?" ”

"See!"

"Isn't that pretty?"

Han Mo smiled bitterly: "Mother, since my father mentioned it to you, you should naturally know that Miss Xiao is not a good thing, she has a very evil temperament, she is rude and willful, even if she kills me, it is impossible for me to marry her." He looked at Mrs. Han and said, "Mother, you don't want to have a lawless daughter-in-law who is illiterate and lawless, right?" ”

Mrs. Han said with a smile: "If you marry a family, that's your wife, can't you even take care of your own wife?" I don't care what her temperament is, I want grandchildren. ”

Han Mo picked up another grape and put it in his mouth, and said lightly: "Mother, it's not only women from the family who can give birth to children!" ”

Mrs. Han frowned slightly, groaned slightly, and then said, "Before your father married me, I was also rude and willful!" ”

"Different." Han Mo sighed: "I just don't want to be a tool for the alliance, temperament is just a reason." He stared at Mrs. Han and said slowly: "I will be very stressed to marry them, and it will not be good for my marriage." ”

Mrs. Han looked at Han Mo seriously and asked, "Then what do you want?" ”

Han Mo said very firmly: "Find a woman you like to marry!" ”

Aunt Bi and Han Qin glanced at each other, surprised, but they showed different colors, for Han Qin, this thought of my brother was really novel, but Aunt Bi was a little shocked, although Han Mo was just a sentence, but the thoughts reflected were extremely rebellious in this era.

Mrs. Han looked at Han Mo quietly, her expression was very serious, and after a long time, she said slowly: "You are my son, my heart, no matter what you do, I will protect you...... But your thoughts will disappoint your father, your grandfather, and the entire Han family. Son, in fact, the survival of the family is not ...... Easy! ”

Han Mo's expression was gloomy, he didn't speak, the atmosphere in the room was extremely depressed for a while, although Aunt Bi had the heart to persuade her, but in this case, she didn't know what to say.

After a period of silence, I suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, and it was Han Cao's voice: "Is my brother and sister here?" I heard the maid say, "Grandma is here!" ”

Mrs. Han just stood up, Han Cao's had already come in, Aunt Bi wanted to get up and salute, but she was weak and couldn't get up for a while, and wanted to let Han Qin help her up, Han Cao's had already come over and held it down, and said with a smile: "That's it, I just heard that your body is unwell before, so come and take a look, these vulgar etiquette is exempt." Xiang Xiang said to Mrs. Han: "Brother and sister, I was looking for you, saying that I was in this house, and I heard that Yubi was unwell, so I came to take a look." ”

Mrs. Han smiled and ordered, "Mo'er, don't pour tea for your aunt yet." stepped forward and smiled: "What do you have to tell my sister-in-law?" ”

"Look at what you say, what can you command." Han Caoshi said with a smile: "Someone sent an invitation just now, inviting the two masters to the banquet, and I sent the invitation of the third master." He went to the invitation card with red paper in Phnom Penh from his sleeve, handed it to Mrs. Han and said: "Ximen Leizang, the squire of the military department, is forty years old this year, and he wants to set up a banquet and send an invitation!" ”

Mrs. Han took the invitation, looked at it, and said, "Sister-in-law, this is a lot for you." For a while, hundreds of people in a large family are bothering you, but it bothers you. ”

Han Caoshi immediately said: "Brother and sister are out of sight, what are you, me, aren't they all a family, and they are still divided into each other?" I'd love you to stay in the house all the time, it's a bit more lively. ”

Han Mo stepped forward with a smile and asked, "Mother, can you invite me on the invitation?" ”

Mrs. Han scolded with a smile: "Do you want to eat that banquet?" Although Ximen Leizang is only a squire of the military department, after all, he is a nobleman of a family, and his identity is no worse than your father, and it is not your turn to pass. ”

Han Mo took the invitation with a smile, looked at it, and saw that it was an invitation to Han Xuanchang to attend the banquet, and his words were quite polite, and when he saw the day, a strange look immediately flashed in his eyes.

"The first day of March!"

……

……

In the majestic and atmospheric Taishi Mansion, in an elegant room, Taishi Xiao, who had a calm face, was standing by the window, looking out of the window at the light rain of the day, and a few green bamboos outside the window were more upright and green under the moisture of the spring rain. He wears a jasper wrench on the thumb of his right hand, and his index finger is pressed against the big wrench, rubbing it gently.

There was a knock at the door, and a voice came in: "Father, it's me!" ”

"Come in!" Master Xiao came back to his senses, slowly walked to the chair and sat down, picked up the teacup next to him, and took a sip gently.

The door was gently pushed open, Xiao Huaijin entered the door, turned around and closed the door carefully, and then walked respectfully to Xiao Taishi, took out the invitation card with gold edge red paper from his sleeve, presented it, and said respectfully: "Father, this is an invitation sent by Ximen Leizang!" ”

"Simon Raizang?" Taishi Xiao raised his eyebrows, squinted at the invitation, and didn't take it, but asked lightly, "What's the matter?" ”

Xiao Huaijin hurriedly said: "Ximen Leizang is forty years old and holds a banquet, and invites high-ranking officials and nobles in Beijing to go to the banquet. ”

"Forty?" Taishi Xiao picked up the teacup again, took a sip lightly, and sneered: "It's rare that he still thinks about me, an old man." Since the beginning of the year, we have impeached many members of their Simon family, and he Ximen Leizang has to invite me to a banquet, and his heart is also very broad-minded! ”

Xiao Huaijin said with a smile: "Father, he is quite humble in his words in the invitation, and he has a lot of respect for his father. ”

Taishi Xiao brushed his beard and said, "Who have you invited?" ”

"As far as I know, the six Shangshu and the important figures of the family have all made posts, and the Ximen Mansion will start to hold a banquet in three days from today." Xiao Huaijin replied.

"Have you invited someone from the royal family?" Taishi Xiao asked lightly.

"I don't know." Xiao Huaijin said: "But if he celebrates his birthday, I'm afraid that the saint won't go to the banquet, and as for the prince and Changdehou, I'm afraid he won't go." ”

Taishi Xiao glanced at Xiao Huaijin and asked, "Ximen Lei Zang is a brave and unscrupulous man, that is a guy who holds grudges and does not remember gratitude, he is suddenly so humble and invites us to a banquet, what do you think it means?" ”

Xiao Huaijin thought for a while, and then said with a smug smile: "Father, according to the son's idea, the Ximen family is soft. At the beginning of this year, he jumped out to compete with our Xiao family, but every time he was defeated, the officials of the Ximen family also fell one after another, the battle of Bozhou County, their Ximen family got not much official position, and then after our rectification, now there is not much left in the court, there is no strength in Beijing, and their Wu County is a villain, this Ximen Lei Zang is only afraid that he has figured it out, so this time on the occasion of his birthday, he surrendered to our Xiao family! ”

Xiao Taishi closed his eyes, his expression was calm, as if he was thinking about something, and after a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, although he was over the age of old, but the old man's eyes were full of sharp light, "Ximen Leizang is not a person who is easy to soften, I have said a long time ago, this person, the knife is on the neck, and it will be hard...... But I don't think he has the courage to play any tricks, before we really do it, their Ximen family doesn't have the strength to take the initiative to fight with us! ”

"Shall we go this time?" Xiao Huaijin asked cautiously.

"Why not?" Taishi Xiao sneered: "He is courteous, can't my Xiao family be open-minded, and let the Manchu Dynasty civil and military see that our Xiao family is broad-minded." ”

Xiao Huaijin asked softly: "On the night of the banquet, do you want to mobilize the shadow guards to secretly protect in case Ximen Leizang plays any tricks?" ”

Taishi Xiao shook his head: "The important people of the Jingzhong family are going to go, and he Ximen Lei has great courage, and he doesn't dare to do it!" He waved his hand and said: "Since Ximen Leizang kindly asks us, let's not be too incomprehensible, and prepare generous gifts!" ”

"My son understood." Xiao Huaijin said immediately.

Taishi Xiao groaned, and suddenly asked, "Hasn't the Han family sent a letter back yet?" ”

"What do you mean, Father?" Xiao Huaijin was puzzled.

"Marriage." Xiao Taishi said lightly: "That night, I mentioned it to Han Xuanchang, he only said that he would ask Han Zhengkun from Donghai County before making a decision, but to this day, he has not given us an answer, and the old man is not willing to wait too long." ”

Xiao Huaijin also frowned: "The Han family is too ignorant of current affairs!" ”

Taishi Xiao sneered: "Now their Han family is very beautiful, if they can't get married, their Han family will be our biggest enemy except for the Su family." Their Han family is becoming more and more powerful in the DPRK, and the sea route in the East China Sea has been opened, and they are now beginning to have a way to come to the most scarce silver...... Hehe, if the Han family really doesn't know the current affairs, we have to close his sea route. ”

At this time, outside the window, it was still drizzling.
