Chapter 273: Family Affairs (2)
At this moment, no one will mention that Cheng Jinrong and Pei Zhang's childhood sweethearts grew up together, let alone that the two almost got married.
Cheng Jinrong smiled faintly: "He Qi and I are on duty in the palace, and we have privately agreed that we will only set up a marriage, and we will talk about marriage after three years." Madame intended to add makeup, I understood it. ”
It took three years to get married, which was too long.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou muttered in her heart, she would not talk about this more, and said a good word affectionately, and then got up and retired.
Empress Pei neither kept Mrs. Yong'an Hou for lunch, nor did she reward Pei Zhang's brothers and sisters.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou returned to Yong'an Hou's Mansion empty-handed and shameless.
……
The Marquis of Yong'an was on an errand in the court, not in the palace. Pei Zhang was recuperating in the yard, and Pei Xiu hid in the house and cried a few times, refusing to come out to see anyone.
said that it was two happy events, and there was no joy in the house.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou was depressed in her heart, and went to her son Pei Zhang's yard first.
The injury on Pei Zhang's arm was actually almost healed. But he was silent all day, describing himself as thin and haggard, with a blank expression, without the slightest vitality.
When Mrs. Yong'an Hou saw Pei Zhang's appearance, she was distressed and angry, and scolded hatefully: "Look at your appearance!" Miss Ye San of the Yasukuni Mansion is born first-class in appearance and outstanding in skills, she can be called a tiger girl, where is she not worthy of you. ”
"Let me tell you, today I entered the palace to see the queen's mother, and Cheng Jinrong was also on the side. When it comes to your family, she doesn't react at all. ”
"She climbed the high branch of the Pingguo Mansion, and she will be the wife of the Prince of Pingguo in the future, where will she still put you in her heart. Who are you going to show here to die or not? Except for me, who else will feel sorry for you? ”
No matter what Mrs. Yong'an Hou said, Pei Zhang just didn't say a word, and even closed his eyes.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou said with a dry mouth and bitterness: "That's it, I have said everything I should have said." Your father set the door to this business. Since you have answered, you will be happy to see people in the future. Marriage is the best way to get married. Think about it in your heart! ”
After saying that, he got up and left.
The room was still quiet.
I don't know how long it took for Pei Zhang to open his eyes, revealing endless pain in his eyes.
It was only when there was no one around that he was willing to immerse himself in the memories of the past. The more beautiful the memory, the more painful the reality.
That night, the momentary hesitation and hesitation were like a silver mirror, clearly reflecting the weakness and hypocrisy in his heart. It also completely destroyed his pride.
He's really lost his cousin Rong forever.
He didn't even have the shame to blame anyone.
……
Children are debts from previous lives.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou hugged Pei Xiu, who was crying and swollen with a pair of eyes, and sighed in her heart, "Ah Xiu, I know that you are not happy in your heart, and you don't want to marry Jiang Liu." I don't want you to marry a useless wreck. ”
"But this family business was determined by your father's insistence. I can't help it. You're resigned to your fate! ”
Pei Xiu cried: "I don't accept my fate! Mother, I don't accept my fate! It's not officially decided yet, and it's still too late to change your tune. Mother, I beg you, go and beg your father, and beg him to quit this family business! ”
Jiang Liugongzi's name of crying and cowardly bag has long been spread in the Beijing boudoir circle.
In the past, Pei Xiu and her close friends who were good friends in the boudoir had joked in private, I don't know who would be so unlucky in the future and would marry such a crying coward.
Unexpectedly, she was this unlucky ghost!
The more Pei Xiu thought about it, the more sad she became, and her tears kept dripping down like beads with broken threads.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou was sad and her eyes were red: "What kind of stupid thing are you talking about." Although it has not been decided, how can the family affairs that have been agreed verbally be withdrawn at will? ”
"Besides, you don't know what your father's temper is. I don't know how many times I've said it for your family these days, and I haven't been able to make your father change his mind. ”
"It's useless if you just cry a thousand times."
Pei Xiu threw herself into her mother's arms and cried loudly.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou and her daughter hugged their heads and cried, until their eyes were swollen and their voices were hoarse, and then they slowly stopped.
In the evening, after Yong'an Hou returned home, he saw that the mother and daughter both had red and swollen eyes, and suddenly became angry: "Such a good family matter, why are you mother and daughter crying?" If it spreads, not only will the Weiguo Mansion lose face, but our Pei family's face will also be lost. ”
Mrs. Yong'an Hou trembled in her heart, and hurriedly squeezed out a smile: "Master Hou is angry, Ah Xiu is young and vigorous, and she can't turn around for a while." In the future, I will definitely persuade her. ”
Yong'an Hou snorted heavily.
Pei Xiu bit her lip, and the tears in her eyes were about to fall again.
Yong'an Hou glanced at Pei Xiu coldly: "Put away all your tears for me." Before you get married, you stay in peace in the boudoir, and you are not allowed to leave the house or see any outsiders. ”
"If something goes wrong in this family business, you don't have to marry again in the future."
Pei Xiu's cry was choked back by Shengsheng.
……
Yasukuni Mansion.
In the martial arts room, Ye Lingyun was beaten by his sister and scurried around, and he wailed from time to time: "It hurts, it hurts!" I'm throwing in the towel, stop it! ”
"You are angry in your heart, go and tell your grandfather, grandmother, father, and mother, don't come at me! It's not like I'm going to marry you...... Eh! ”
Ye Qingyun, who was dressed in red, had crimson cheeks, angry flames burning in his eyes, and his fists and feet were like flying, beating Ye Lingyun to the point that his nose was blue and his face was swollen.
Ye Lingyun has been beaten by his sister since he was a child, so he has to consider himself unlucky. When Ye Qingyun calmed down a little, seeing Ye Lingyun's pitiful appearance of baring his teeth, it was rare to feel a little guilty and uneasy.
"Fourth brother, I'm sorry," Ye Qingyun opened his mouth to apologize: "I originally wanted to accompany you to practice martial arts." But as soon as the anger came up, he couldn't control his hands and feet at all. Today's shot is a bit heavier. ”
Miss Ye San, who is not afraid of the sky and the earth and is not afraid of the flamboyant and wanton, is depressed and depressed at this time.
Ye Lingyun felt quite uncomfortable in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh: "You don't want to marry princes, and you don't want to live a life of intrigue all day long." The Marquis of Yong'an is coming to propose, why don't you want to? ”
Although he has no friendship with Pei Zhang. However, Pei Zhang is one of the most outstanding noble young men in the capital. Such a family affair, why is Ye Qingyun still unhappy?
Ye Qingyun snorted lightly: "Pei Zhang has always liked his cousin Cheng Jinrong in his heart, and now that Cheng Jinrong and He Qi have become a couple, the Pei family will come to the Ye family to propose marriage." What did you do with me? ”
"Don't say I don't want to get married, I just want to marry, and I have to marry a husband who treats me wholeheartedly."
Ye Lingyun scratched his head: "Then what should I do now?" Grandfather has already taken care of his family, and in a few days, the Pei family will officially come to the door to pay a salute. ”
