Chapter 8: Something

The fat man sitting opposite Rong Changning reacted, took out a brocade box from his arms and handed it to Rong Changning, as soon as the box was opened, a pure and bright red jumped in front of Rong Changning's eyes.

"Cousin Changning, this is pigeon's bloodstone, a rare object found in southern Xinjiang, and I am afraid that I can't find a few in the imperial city."

This bright red was piercing when he looked at it, and Rong Changning bowed: "It looks like a good thing, and I haven't seen it before." It's just that Changning's mourning period has not yet expired, so he can't bring such a thing. Changning is a layman, pigeon blood red jade or agate, in my eyes, it is the same, and it is still not a waste of such a good thing. ”

"This ......" The fat man's hand stopped in mid-air, and he didn't put it or not, looking back at his mother, the cousin hurriedly slapped her face: "It's true, I forgot about this stubble, our family Ah Fu wants to bring some good things to his cousin, and he doesn't have to pay much attention." Niece, don't be angry with your aunt. ”

Rong Chuan waved his hand: "Okay, Ah Fu is a piece of good intentions, Changning naturally won't be careful." It's my cousin, the mountains and rivers are long and rushing to the imperial city, why is it so urgent, do you have to leave with the roots of the year? Sleeping in the open all the way, the year has not been comfortable, right? ”

"The imperial city is far away, and we have learned that the news of the princess's death has passed for a long time, and we want to enter the city to mourn but can't catch up with the time, so we will wait for the New Year to visit. More importantly, bring Ah Fu to see the world. I have been thinking about Xiao Changning in my heart, and before I came, I also took Ah Fu to worship the elders of the Rong clan, hoping to be fortunate enough to marry two surnames. ”

As soon as the words 'two surnames are good' came out, Rong Ruo couldn't help but swallow the hot tea in his mouth, and his mouth was stammered for a while: "What...... What the?! Do you want to marry my second sister?! ”

Then Rong Ruo stretched out his hand and pointed at the nerd opposite: "Just him?!" Still married to Hengliang?! ”

Rong Chang Ningbo sat there calmly, raised his hand and pulled down Rong Ruo: "Ah Ruo, don't be rude." ”

Rong Ruo withdrew his hand and shook his sleeves and sat back in his seat, not only did Rong Ruo feel unreasonable about this kind of thing, but Xiao Dong, who had been waiting behind, also felt very unhappy when he heard it.

"I know it's a little abrupt." The aunt's words were not slow: "Although the prestige of our Xu family is far less than that of today's Rong family, it is also famous in the realm of Hengliang. If Ah Fu marries a wife casually in the local area, I am really unwilling. ”

Rong Chuan looked at his daughter and then at the stupid son of the Xu family opposite, he didn't know what he was thinking, the corners of his mouth moved lightly and he didn't speak for a long time.

"If I'm right, Changning is fifteen this year, right? My family Ah Fu is honest, but he is not transparent enough, I think I should find a girl who is right and smarter. Thinking about it, this little Changning is the most hearty. ”

Rong Changning couldn't listen to what she said anymore, and it seemed that it was none of his business, but he clutched the corner of his clothes tightly in his hand and never put it down.

Rong Chuan looked at Ah Fu sitting below, and he only knew that he was smiling stupidly, and his expression was also far-fetched. In the end, he only squeezed out one sentence: "This road is full of dust, my cousin might as well take Ah Fu to settle down earlier, and hold a banquet in the house later to catch the wind and wash the dust for my cousin." ”

"Not tired!"

Speaking of this, my cousin who came from afar still didn't understand, which also made people sigh in their hearts, what kind of family is this. In the end, Rong Chuan waved his hand and called Steward Xu, and forced people to take them to the guest room.

On the way back, Rong Ruo was naturally angry, and he also endured his temper to comfort Rong Changning: "Second sister, don't worry, my father will not marry you to such a wine bag and rice bag." I don't know how many people in the imperial city are lining up to beg to marry the second sister. ”

Rong Changning was silent, and what he cared about was not that this cousin, who was not very smart, was going to propose marriage, but that this cousin was also surnamed Xu.

I can't figure out if this person was recruited by Lu Liyuan, seeing that this cousin is not shrewd, and what she said is also looking forward to the future, and she has no thought about the future, maybe it is all taught by Aunt Xu.

But people haven't had a good time for a year, and they came from afar with their son, and it's rude not to treat guests well.

Before he could take a few steps, Rong Changning raised his eyes and saw the stupid 'cousin' not far away beckoning to him again. Rong Ruoyi frowned, as if he didn't see the eldest sister with one hand and the second sister with the other hand and walked towards the backyard.

When passing by the guest room, Rong Changning also saw that there were many big boxes piled up at the gate of the courtyard, and the maid and old mother from Hengliang also stood in a long row, looking at the pomp and posture, it was really more magnificent than his father going out.

It seems lively to have so many Buddhas in the house, Rong Chuan didn't talk much when he saw it, and only entered the door of the Lugasa Courtyard with a straight face.

Aunt Xu calculated in her heart that Rongchuan would come over at night, and the hairpin ring was neatly wrapped and waited in the house. As soon as Rong Chuan entered the door, he immediately greeted him with a smile on his face: "Master Hou is back?" Is the cousin of the Xu family good? ”

While reaching out to take off Rong Chuan's robe, Rong Chuan flicked his sleeves and made Aunt Xu lose her hand, and sat down on the side of the desk and looked at Xu Yunqiao coldly: "This is the relative you said Hengliang came from?" ”

"yes, what's wrong? Hou Ye's cousin, my eldest sister. Far Talk...... Probably not too far away. ”

"Do you know that they haven't been able to take care of them for years, what are the so-called things about rushing to the imperial city?"

Aunt Xu looked at Rong Chuan with a pair of delicate eyes: "When?" It's time to hear the ...... of the master's mother."

"Except for this."

"I ...... How do I know? ”

Seeing that Rong Chuan's eyes were still sharp, Aunt Xu knew in her heart that she couldn't hide it, so she complained to Rong Chuan's side: "I also heard just now that this eldest sister likes Changning." When this man gets married, it is normal for the eldest sister to be anxious. When they heard that the princess had died of illness, they were in a hurry to come to the house, and they didn't know how many horses had broken down on the way. Fortunately, her husband's family is rich and doesn't care about this, this is the affection of relatives. ”

Pulling and pulling, Rong Chuan was pulled by Aunt Xu's temper, and when he looked at her aggrieved appearance, he felt that she was innocent, and instantly forgot that he came to Lujiayuan to question Aunt Xu.

"How fresh?! Look at that Ah Fu of their family, and he still wants to marry my daughter...... Still want to marry my Changning? and not according to themselves. If I had known they were here for this, I wouldn't have avoided me. There are a lot of young talents in the imperial city, how can it be their turn? ”

Aunt Xu breathed a sigh of relief: "What should I be, ask Master Hou to run to my yard to vent a fire." So that's what happened? ”

"What do you think? You didn't see that Ah Fu? ”

Seeing that Rong Chuan would not be angry with herself, Aunt Xu knelt on the ground and tore off Rong Chuan's robe and handed it to the maid on the side, and considered everything she could say in her heart, for fear that saying a wrong word would make Rong Chuan feel that she would not allow his daughter to stay in the house.

Aunt Xu poured tea and put it in front of Rong Chuan: "Master Hou drinks tea smoothly." ”

"You didn't know anything beforehand?"

"I ...... Of course, I hadn't heard of it beforehand. ”

"His daughter is not good, and it is not impossible for me to come forward on his behalf, so he has to ask my family to be peaceful?"

"What's wrong with Changning? Changning is also fifteen years old, and Ah Ling's marriage is decided, but Changning is still hanging in the end. I am the concubine of the Hou Ye, and it is not easy to speak. But Changning is the daughter of the Hou Ye, what is the difference between it and my daughter? If you have to wait for the mourning period of the main mother, how old is Changning? only set a parent, and it doesn't have to be Changning to marry immediately. ”

"I understand!" Rong Chuan turned around: "But you didn't see that...... Her son. ”

Hearing this, Aunt Xu leaned over and leaned over to Rong Chuan's side: "Does Master Hou look down on Ah Fu or his background?" ”

If you can't look down on your background, Rongchuan's ancestors also started as businessmen. If he doesn't look down on this person, he also does his duty, and he hasn't heard of any big mistakes made by this kid, but he is very honest.

Aunt Xu stopped talking about it when she got to this point, and asked Rong Chuan to understand those extraneous sounds by herself. Rong Chuan didn't disappoint her, and said after a while: "If I refute it, don't the people in my hometown think that I look down on businessmen?" Forgot your roots? ”

"Eldest sister not. It's just that the eldest sister told me that all the people in Hengliang knew about their desire to marry Changning, and it was not clear how others criticized it. Which man with a head and face in the imperial city is not a large group of three wives and four concubines? It's not that the backyard is right or wrong. Ah Fu's child is just not handsome enough, but he is blessed. It's honest enough to look at it from a distance, plus our Changning has an idea, isn't it a matter of hooking your fingers to hold such a family master? There is a marquis father behind him, and he can't stand the anger of the backyard when he marries. And the family is well-off, and there is such a sister-in-law as Ah Fu, and those family property and personnel are not pinched by Changning? ”

Seeing Rong Chuan staring at the tea soup in front of him without speaking, Aunt Xu took a deep breath and sighed unintentionally: "It's just that people don't look down on me Xin'er as a concubine, otherwise I would like to ask Xin'er to marry." It's far away, but Hengliang is his hometown. ”

"Don't say anything about the family, my sons and daughters are the same. If Ah Fu can see the core, I am willing to put on red makeup and accompany thousands of acres of fertile land. ”

Hearing Rong Chuan's thoughts that Rong Xin was going to marry that stupid Ah Fu again, Aunt Xu hurriedly shut her mouth, for fear that if she said a few more words, Rong Chuan would really marry Rong Xin.

"Counting this Xu Fu's father, he is also of the same clan as your mother's family?"

"It is said that the same clan and clan are all surnamed Xu, but they are two families that can't beat with eight poles, and they don't know how much." After saying what should be said, Aunt Xu didn't mention this stubble again, and leaned softly on Rong Chuan: "Master Hou might as well settle it earlier, right?" Those children's love is a personal creation, if the matter of Changning can be stopped, you can get a bowl of water to be level, not to fall the core. ”

"Of course I'm a bowl of water for children. It's just that Ah Ruo's temper is afraid that there will be trouble these days. ”

The so-called knowing son Mo Ruo's father, as long as it involves Rong Changning, Rong Ruo doesn't care who is on the other side.

After falling from the mother and son of the Xu family, Rong Ruo asked the people in his yard to keep an eye on them. I got up early the next morning and went to the guest room to shake it, and when I saw the bloated Xu Fu coming out of the door, Rong Ruo shouted: "Eh! ”
