Mu Hongshang looked at Xie Shurou in a daze for a long time, as if she felt that something was wrong, she thought about it, and finally thought of where the awkwardness was.

"That's not right, Sister Xie." She asked in confusion, "According to what you said, Lord Xie Xiang still wants to drag it out right now." He shouldn't want Sister Xie to like King Yi now, right? But why do your grandmothers and mothers in the family count you for being hypocritical, do they want you to be happy with King Yi now? ”

"Not really." Xie Shurou shook her head: "I just advised me not to think too much." I understood what they meant, and my grandfather wanted me to be able to deal with King Yi well. ”

"How to deal with this kind of thing," Mu Hongsheng, who is almost fifteen years old, is naturally not as ignorant as when she was a child, and is as ignorant about emotional problems: "They let you get along with King Yi like this, it is difficult to achieve it, in case you fall in love with King Yi, but Xie Xiang chose King Xin again, and he can't marry you to King Yi, that's not ......"

"Pit people, right?" Xie Shurou smiled at Mu Hongsheng, her expression was calm: "I also think it's quite tricky." But my grandfather apparently didn't think so. I think he even feels that any decision he makes is for my good and the good of the Xie family. I said a long time ago that my family is not the same as yours. It should be said that your family is different from most noble families in this era. ”

"Sister Xie," Mu Hongshang thought for a while and then said, "At best, Xie Xiang doesn't want to make an easy decision at the moment, that is, he will try his best to delay your marriage." And I think...... Even if it drags on to the end, it is very likely that you will not marry to the Yiwang Mansion. After all, Li Xiang is King Yi's person, and now Lin Xiang is telling the old man to return to his hometown and win your grandfather's support, which should be very important to King Xin. ”

"That's right," Xie Shurou nodded: "Lin Xiangsu has returned to his hometown, and my grandfather's value in the eyes of the two princes is bound to be higher, and he really wants to drag it out." But whether I will marry to King Yi's mansion or not, it's hard to say. When the dynasty is a product, there are not only Li Xiang and Xie Xiang, others don't say it, isn't Scholar Gu also a powerful minister. ”

"But I don't think Lord Xie Xiang won't think about you at all." Mu Hongshang said.

"Of course, after all, she is a granddaughter, not an enemy," Xie Shurou nodded: "Alas! In fact, I can only complain in private, and he won't tell me what my grandfather thinks. I can only say that the generation gap between me and him is extremely serious, and there is no way to communicate. He couldn't understand my thoughts, just as I couldn't understand him. Regarding my marriage, from my point of view, he just treated me as a tool, and from his point of view, he must have felt that he had tried his best to plan for me. I think my grandfather decided in his heart that planning for our Xie family is equivalent to planning for me. ”

"There is a saying, you probably haven't heard of it, but most girls in this era have been told by their ears since they were young: their mother's family is the real honor guard and face of women, and their mother's family can stand, so they will not be looked down upon in their mother-in-law's family. Your grandmother and your mother will never teach you such a truth, because you are the daughter of the Duke of Anguo. But your sister-in-law must have received such an education, don't believe you go back and ask her. ”

"I've actually heard of it." Mu Hongshang replied: "But no one at home really taught me like this. ”

"It would be great if you could control your own destiny and choose your own way of life." Xie Shurou sighed slightly: "It's a pity that in this ghost place, it's absolutely impossible." All I could do was complain. "Shih Tzu literature

At the moment, there are many worries and worries about the future for the two girls, so such a topic is obviously not very pleasant. Xie Shurou simply shook her head, directly changed the topic, and said some light-hearted jokes to make Mu Hongshang happy.

As for Mu Hongsheng, it was obvious that she didn't want to infect her worries and anxieties about her second uncle to Xie Shurou, so she tacitly cooperated to change the topic, and the two chatted while drinking tea, and their mood gradually relaxed a lot.

The sun is getting higher, the warm sun of early spring will make the breeze warm, and the people in the back garden of Princess Pingyang are gradually increasing, and the guests are strolling around in groups to enjoy the spring, and people are beginning to pass by here in the water pavilion, but there are still no people coming to disturb Xie Shurou and Mu Hongsheng.

Mu Hongshang saw that the two young ladies of the He family, who were particularly enthusiastic about her at her brother's wedding last time, were now walking with Li Yunzheng, and Wen Meiqing was nowhere to be seen. She couldn't help but curiously tugged at Xie Shurou's sleeve and asked, "Sister Xie, didn't Wen Meiqing come today?" ”

"Here," Xie Shurou replied, "I saw her standing with your sister-in-law's sisters before. By the way, you haven't gone to say hello to Mrs. Gu yet, she won't be picky, right? ”

"Probably not." Mu Hongshang shook her head: "When I entered the flower hall, I didn't see the Gu family, and when I was seated, I saw it and asked for a good night." But Sister Xie, Wen Meiqing has always been playing with Li Yunzheng, why did she suddenly run to play with a few young ladies of the Gu family. ”

"You haven't been out for a long time, so I don't know, it's been like this these days," Xie Shurou replied: "Before, the military department was still empty, and Li Xiang's side intended to let Wen Meiqing's father compete for this position, but then it wasn't yellow!" I heard that Concubine Wen was unhappy in her heart, so she cried to the queen, and complained a lot about Li Xiang. Later, these days, I haven't seen Wen Meiqing and Li Yunzheng in one place. ”

"Concubine Wen cried to the queen, this kind of thing always has to avoid some people, right? You know what she cried about. Mu Hongshang asked.

"This," Xie Shurou sneered: "It's all over the capital." My grandmother said that it was probably the queen mother who was annoyed and deliberately let out some rumors to knock on the Wen family, asking Concubine Wen to be cautious in her words and deeds. So I think that Li Yunzheng doesn't care much about Wen Meiqing these days, and it is probably at the behest of his family, Li Xiang intends to show his face to the Wen family, right? ”

"So that's the case," Mu Hongsheng nodded: "No wonder." I'm wondering how these two people used to play together every day, and suddenly got separated. ”

"But in my opinion, this Wen family is a little confused." Xie Shurou pursed her lips: "Wen Meiqing didn't talk about coaxing Li Yunzheng these days, but went to talk to the granddaughters of the Gu scholars." Could it be that Wen Meiqing's father still wants to find a third-grade or second-grade shortage in the Hanlin Academy through Scholar Gu? He's a student of Li Xiang, so it's a hell if Scholar Gu can ignore him. And Li Xiang hasn't fallen yet, the Wen family is in a hurry to climb the wall, for fear that others won't know that they are two-faced villains? ”
