Chapter 574: Immediately decide Xiahou Juan
"Hey, Zihuan, you said that you looked quite clever when you were a child, why are you so stupid now?"
"I introduced you to the daughter of the Lu family before, but it turned out that none of you looked down on anyone, and your brother-in-law and I didn't say much, but ...... You're fighting for it yourself! ”
"I heard that there are also many young women in your official office, and you don't know any of them?"
"At the beginning, your brother-in-law let you choose by yourself first, or did I beg your brother-in-law to transfer you to a department with more girls, but in the end you still wanted me to introduce you to your brother-in-law?"
Xiahou chattered Cao Pi......
"Giggle...... Stupid uncle, stupid uncle. Xiao Ningning was now on the side, giggling.
Cao Pi glared at the little kid, but Xiao Ningning was not afraid of him at all, so it was a big deal to find a godfather to beat him......
"Ning Ning! You can't say that, girls should be polite and speak tactfully...... what is the synonym for 'stupid'? Xiahou Juan criticized without hesitation, and as an excellent mother, she was also good at guiding.
Xiao Ningning thought for a while, and then said, "Cute? ”
Seeing that Xiao Ningning changed a nice word, Xiahou Juan gave up.
Cao Pi: ......
"Okay, I'll give you a 'lovely uncle' after a while, and introduce a young lady from the Yu family!" Xiahou Juan said deliberately.
Cao Pi hurriedly said at this time: "Wait...... I ......"
"Huh? Zihuan, you and your sister are honest, you won't be a girl you already like, right? Xiahou Juan saw something.
Cao Pi blushed: "Anyway, you don't have to worry about it, I'm twenty!" ”
Xiahou Juan saw this scene, but the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became......
"What's wrong with you, twenty? Your brother-in-law and I didn't stop you from anything, who do you like, honestly? Xiahou Juan frowned.
It is said that with Cao Pi's identity and the atmosphere of the Chu State, no matter whose woman he likes, he can tell Xiahou Juan.
From Cao Cao's side, Cao Pi may not be very entertaining, but from Xiahou Juan's point of view, how can Cao Pi also be the brother-in-law of the King of Chu, and he was born in the Cao family - you can't just look at the side of the enemy country, according to the ideas of the old days, even if it is an enemy country, the royal family is the royal family, even if it is your own country, the people are also the people.
Even if Cao Pi likes the daughter of a scholar or county marquis, it can be said that Xiahou Juan will talk about it, and it will be more difficult if it is Jia Xu's daughter.
Jia Xu chooses a son-in-law, that is an inconspicuous one, otherwise even if free love is popular in Chu State, he is an old fox who wants to break up a young man, isn't it silent?
As for those with lower status, then don't be afraid, Xiahou Juan is not a person who pays attention to these, even if he ...... is really a woman who sells art in the Qinglou, and Xiahou Juan can bear to accept it.
What's more, now the state of Chu is still gradually tightening the control of the Qinglou industry, Jinling ...... Now there are no green buildings, and officials are strictly forbidden to enter and leave the green buildings.
Thinking of this, Xiahou Juan's heart tightened......
"Zihuan, you won't like someone you shouldn't like, right?" Xiahou Juan tentatively probed.
Seeing that Cao Pi didn't speak, Xiahou Juan suddenly thought of his uncle, who was Cao Pi's father, and after hesitating, he asked, "Is it ...... Already married? ”
Sure enough, Cao Pi's face was slightly flustered, and then he said, "No! I don't like anyone! ”
Xiahou Juan: ......
"Sister-in-law Chen, you hug Ning Ning down first...... Let's go out and wait! By the way, the table is a little dirty, get me a duster...... Well, I'll do it myself, you don't have to worry. Xiahou Juan smiled at the hired palace maids on the side and said.
"Sister...... Don't get excited! Cao Pi saw that Xiahou Juan had already taken his weapon, and hurriedly stood up.
"You, you...... I'm! What are you not learning with your uncle? Do you dare to worry about other people's daughters-in-law? Is it going to bully men and women later? Let your brother-in-law know......" After Xiahou Juan and the others left, he was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
"Sister! Are you mistaken...... Me, I...... Although she was married, she now has no husband...... It's been several years since I passed away! Cao Pi explained in a hurry.
Xiahou Juan calmed down a little at this time: "A widow? ”
It's not good, but it's ...... Regardless of Han and Chu, there is no restriction and contempt for widowed women to remarry, even if it is a divorce and remarriage, it is not a matter of etiquette, which is closer to modern than the Song and Ming dynasties, and it is even more so in the Chu State.
Especially just now, Cao Pi was stumbling, which made Xiahou Juan really think that he liked someone's married woman, with this layer of foreshadowing, Xiahou Juan even felt - it turns out that you just like widows, it's really good!
"Whose widow?" Xiahou Juan asked.
"No need to ......" Cao Pi still wanted to hide it, but Xiahou Juan slapped his palm on the duster.
"Then I'll tell you, you don't have to tell your brother-in-law." Cao Pi shrunk his neck and said.
After Xiahou Juan agreed, Cao Pi told her that he was not interested in others, but Lu Shang's wife before his death, and Xu Rong's own sister - Xu Wan!
It was when Xu Rong was serving as Taishi Ling that Lu Jun asked Lu Kang for instructions to give his grandson Lu Shang a granddaughter-in-law who married home, but Lu Shang died within two years.
In history, it was this Lu Shang's widow of the Xu family who later married Sun Quan, and was nominally Sun Quan's wife.
However, now in the state of Chu, Sun Quan's identity is no longer the successor or the lord of one party, so naturally he can't find an awkward and use marriage to win over any family.
This fate did not appear, but Cao Pi and Xu Wan met and ...... There are some feelings of mutual affection.
It's just that Xu Wan's identity is embarrassing after all, and both the Lu family and the Xu family have the heart to continue to maintain the relationship between their in-laws, and even after Lu Shang's mourning period is over, they still leave the Xu family in the Lu family's main house.
Although the State of Chu advocates free love, how can it be free when it really involves giants like the Lu family and the Xu family?
If you can be free, it must be a little freedom to show off in response to the call of the king of Chu......
"Sister, why are you going?" Cao Pi watched Xiahou Juan walk out of the hall suspiciously.
"Find your brother-in-law and Rong Rong."
"Huh? Didn't you promise me...... Wait......" Cao Pi hurriedly chased out.
However, with the guards and waiters watching outside, Cao Pi was not rude, but followed Xiahou Juan quickly and whispered: "Sister! You just promised me not to say it! ”
I just agreed, but Xiahou Juan felt that this matter should be sooner rather than later......
After all, she doesn't understand things that are too complicated, but from a dramatic point of view, in general, in this kind of plot, it is late to change!
"Well, I regret it!" Xiahou said with a bright smile.
Cao Pi: ......
