"At that time, we were as old as Jin'er, and we were tired of playing together all day long, just like your girl's family. Later, she took the lead in getting engaged, married the marquis at the time of the curtain, lived in Chang'an, and gradually lost contact with me. ”

Cheng Xiangjin was very interested in what happened at that time, and took Old Man Cheng's hand and asked, "What happened later?" ”

"Later, I got engaged to your grandfather in Meixian, and soon after, I married into the Cheng family. At that time, your grandfather had just passed the spring season and was admitted to the Jinshi. The DPRK sent your grandfather to Chang'an as an official, and I had another opportunity to meet her. It's just that at that time, the rules of their Hou Mansion were strict, and she still had an old lady to serve above, and the number of times she could come out to see me was very limited. Then, a few years later, your grandfather, who had a prosperous official road, suddenly fell ill, and my wife had to return to her hometown in Meixian County with her two young children. Who would have thought that this time it would be more than 20 years. Now, thanks to your father for making this Jing Zhaoyin, otherwise, it would be really difficult for our old sisters to see each other. ”

"Grandmother will stay in Chang'an City in the future, and no one can stop you and the two elders from meeting."

Old Madam Cheng was amused by her serious appearance, "Well, even if you leave, you have to wait for our Jin'er to find a good mother-in-law in Chang'an, otherwise, grandmother, I can't rest assured!" ”

Cheng Xiangjin was stimulated by Xie Miaojing and basically couldn't listen to words like marriage, so he was amused by the old lady and immediately smiled uncomfortably.

When she returned to the old lady's residence, Mrs. Cheng retreated left and right, took Cheng Xiangjin's hand, and looked at her lovingly, as if she had something to say.

"Grandmother, do you have anything to explain to Jin'er?"

Old Madam Cheng shook her head, hesitated slightly, and asked, "What does Jin'er think of the Xie family?" ”

Cheng Xiangjin suddenly smiled bitterly, "Xie Jialang? Xie Lingfeng? ”

The old lady nodded solemnly, "Old lady Xie is here today, and there is a meaning that she wants to get married." Originally, my grandmother thought that when your brother was old, if Chunfu could go to high school, my grandmother would want to hire a girl from Houfu as her granddaughter-in-law. However, the old man of the Xie family said that Miss Xie seemed to have a family to discuss relatives, but she hadn't booked it yet. She heard that you are not yet engaged, so she discussed with her grandmother and wanted to hire you as a granddaughter-in-law! Grandmother naturally thinks that Feng'er's child is a good one, and she just wants to ask you what you mean. What do you think of this family business? Would you like to? ”

Cheng Xiangjin didn't expect to avoid Xie Miaojing, and he couldn't escape Mrs. Xie after all! I can't help but sigh that ginger is old and spicy after all.

The first time people came to the door, they had already had a showdown with their grandmother!

Cheng Xiangjin felt that he had never been so sad as he is now.

Mrs. Cheng didn't say anything when she saw her, nor did she urge her, quietly holding her hand and waiting for her to speak.

"Xie Lingfeng is one of the best young talents in the entire Chang'an City. People are naturally good! It's just that the granddaughter grew up in the countryside and is used to being unrestrained. After not wanting to get married, he was bound by strict rules. The granddaughter has no intention of doing this family business! ”

Mrs. Cheng knows her temperament, and it is reasonable for her to do this

"What does Grandmother think of this relationship? Are you willing to let Jin'er marry into the Hou Mansion? ”

Mrs. Cheng was asked by her, and touched her face with pity, "No matter where Jin'er marries, grandmother is naturally reluctant." It's just that today's world requires women to marry, and only after marriage can they be tolerated by the world. Grandmother thought that since she was going to marry after all, it was better to marry into the Hou Mansion than to marry an outsider who didn't know about it. First, there is a friendship between grandmother and Mrs. Xie for many years, and other people in the house naturally dare not deliberately rub you; Second, Feng'er's child is also one of the best talents in a hundred, and he already has a foundation in the DPRK at his age, and he will become a great weapon in the future. What's more, there is also a hereditary marquis who can marry him as soon as you enter the door, and when he strikes the lord, you are the marquis. With such an identity, what do you want to do on weekdays, who can stop you? What's more, grandmother can also see that Feng'er actually cares about you. As long as he treats you wholeheartedly, are you still worried that you can't live in the Hou Mansion? ”

This topic is too heavy, and Cheng Xiangjin is still difficult to accept for a while. She could clearly refuse Xie Miaojing's temptation, but she couldn't hastily overturn her grandmother's intentions.

Now that she has brought it to the surface, she should at least think about it carefully.

Mrs. Cheng's, she naturally understands. It's just that when I think of living with Xie Lingfeng one day, I don't know why, I always feel a little awkward in my heart.

It is natural not to hate it, after all, Xie Lingfeng's appearance is there, impeccable! But I didn't rejoice either.

Cheng Xiangjin doesn't know what's wrong with him? When did you become so picky?

Mrs. Cheng saw that she was embarrassed, and she didn't force it.

"You go back and think about it first. I'll let my grandmother know when you've figured it out. ”

"Where ...... Mother and Father"

"Grandmother first!"

With Cheng Laofu's assurance, Cheng Xiangjin returned to Yulan Courtyard with heavy steps.

She tossed and turned all night, and finally couldn't sleep.

After a few days, Mrs. Cheng sent someone to deliver a post.

Cheng Xiangjin opened it and took a look, and it turned out that Xie Miaojing invited her to see the lanterns at fifteen. Thinking of the girl who was soft on the surface but eccentric on the inside, Cheng Xiangjin was inexplicably a little resistant in her heart.

According to the style of the girl of the Xie family, who knows if she is invited, Xie Ling Summit will not be there?

Now at this juncture, she really doesn't plan to see him!

Seeing that there was no response from her side, Mrs. Cheng called her over at dinner.

Cheng Xiangjin only ate two bites of food listlessly, and the old lady saw that she was still hesitating, and explained: "In previous years, during the Shangyuan Festival, you always thought that you could come to Chang'an to see it with your own eyes. Now that this is a chance, why are you still hesitating? ”

"Granddaughter...... Haven't thought about it yet......"

Mrs. Cheng naturally knew that she didn't think about it, and she didn't just look at the lanterns.

It's just that, seeing that she has been suffering for this matter for the past few days, Mrs. Cheng is also a little distressed.

"If you don't want to go, you won't go, just push it. Grandmother doesn't blame you! ”

"Grandmother?"

"It's a matter of marriage, and you can't rush it. Grandmothers understood. ”

"Grandmother, I'm sorry to worry about you!"

"Silly boy, you were raised by your grandmother, and grandmother doesn't worry about you, who is she worried about?"

"Grandmother ......"

Cheng Xiangjin leaned on the old lady's chest as she did at the time, suppressed her mood for many days, and finally got a little relieved as tears fell.

Thinking about it carefully, being able to marry Xie Lingfeng seems to be the wish of countless high-ranking ladies in the city, but now she has won the blue eyes of Old Man Xie by mistake. Perhaps, it is not impossible to try to change the inherent mentality.

Her grandmother was right about one thing. Anyway, he always has to get married, rather than marrying an outsider who doesn't know the roots, Xie Lingfeng is indeed the best candidate.

It's just that it takes a little time for her to get used to it.
