Chapter 151: The Luo family came to ask for marriage
Unexpectedly, such a short episode on the street was not over, only three days later, the Luo family suddenly came to the old lady, and the intention was to ask to marry the lady and return to Cui.
The Luo family, Master Luo is the court official of the second grade, and Mrs. Luo is the first lady of the order.
The Luo family has a prominent family background and is in the limelight.
It's just that Master Luo's official position is a little embarrassing.
This dynasty has a crown prince and a young master, and the prince and young master are specially assisted in teaching the prince. However, Master Luo was specially promoted by the Holy Lord to assist in teaching the second prince, and the official name is also a temporary addition of the prince and young master, although it is also the same as the prince and young master, it is the second grade. But after all, there are some unjustifications, and they are secretly ridiculed by their colleagues behind their backs.
However, those colleagues only dared to laugh behind their backs, the second prince has always been the most favored by the saint since he was a child, but as for the eldest prince with weak maternal power, he has never been favored by the saint. Even since ancient times, there has been an ancestral motto of establishing a long and a long heir, and the eldest prince is a long and not a grandson, and the second prince is neither a long nor a grandson, but he has the favor of the saints. Who will be the crown prince in the future is still unknown, but in the eyes of those who have a heart, they all feel that these two princes are destined to return.
As for the Luo family, if the second prince really gains power in the future, it will definitely be a great minister in one day.
When the old lady heard the meaning of the visitor, she was overjoyed.
The Luo family, the Luo family of second-grade officials!
"The son of Lord Luo's family, want to ask to marry my family? But I have never had anything to do with the Luo family when I returned home, so why now? The old lady still couldn't believe it.
The official media nodded firmly, and said with a smile: "Old lady, you are right, it is the eldest son of the prince's young master Luo's family, and the eldest prince Luo wants to ask to marry Miss Diancui, who has returned home!" ”
He pointed to the people of the Luo family who came together, and said attentively: "These two are the people of the Luo family, one is the second steward of the Luo family, and the other is the housekeeper in the courtyard of Gongzi Luo." ”
"Hurry up and serve tea!" The old lady was overjoyed: "Three of you, please sit down, this tea is the filial piety that my granddaughter brought back from Hangzhou Mansion to me, but the dragon well before the rain, everyone also tastes it." ”
The official media took the tea with a smile, and after drinking it, they immediately warmly said that it is really good tea, Mrs. Xie.
The other two only took the teacup slightly, only smelled it lightly, and were still disdainful, but the fragrance and sweetness were really tangy. I had to slightly collect the shame in my eyes and take a small sip.
Such a good tea is still brought from Hangzhou before the rain Longjing, which is more expensive than gold, mainly because it is difficult to buy. Not to mention the two of them, even if it is their Luo family, they have to regard it as a good thing.
After drinking the dragon well before the rain, the old lady served a few more plates of delicate fruits, and talked while eating.
After drinking and eating, the grandmother in charge also stretched her brows and said: "Our son-in-law has been clothed and fed since he was a child, but in an official family, the rules are stricter, and it is not as good as ordinary small families who can marry at will with their temperament......"
She only said half a sentence before she sighed, then ate her tea, and said nothing.
"Since there is an official media, how can you say ......that you are arbitrary," the old lady was a little puzzled.
"It can't be said arbitrarily, this family affair is also agreed by our lord and wife," the second steward took over the conversation, but the arrogance on this person's face was even worse: "It's just that Mrs. is not very happy that our young master has always been safe, and this time he took the initiative to propose to his parents that he liked a woman so confused." ”
This seems to mean that the young lady who returned home did not know the inspection, and she had already met with their young master Luo, and confused Young Master Luo, so that the upright and upright young master Luo changed his normal state, and actually took the initiative to ask his parents to marry.
When the old lady Gui heard this, her face was slightly embarrassed, and she only said: "There must be some misunderstanding in this, and we don't want to inquire about the affairs between young people, but now that Master Luo and Mrs. Luo intend to promote this family business, then ......"
"What the old lady said is that it's just that the eldest lady who married in your mansion had a head and tail with someone before she got married, and this matter was rumored at that time," the lady in charge also opened her mouth and said: "So what our lady means is that before Miss Gui enters the door, it will be inconvenient to meet my son-in-law again, if there is any more scandal, our Luo family is a family with a head and a face, and we can't afford such a reputation." ”
"You!" When did the old lady Gui be pointed at her nose and scolded the family for being wrong, although Gui Chuyu did something ugly, but the descendants of the Luo family were really arrogant, and this was undoubtedly a slap in the face to the old lady, the old lady put the tea cup on the table heavily, and said coldly: "Now your Luo family asks to marry my granddaughter, why do you two bother to be sarcastic?" ”
"Oh, old lady, dissipate your anger, dissipate your anger, these two are also outspoken, and I hope that there are a lot of old ladies, don't blame." The official media hurriedly came out to play a round.
"I said that the two stewards, since they are coming to a happy event, I will not mention the past ones." The official media can't stand it, these two subordinates are simply dogs, if they don't want to promote this happy event, why bother to run this trip by themselves.
Although the two Luo family members looked down on returning home as merchants, they were entrusted by the son to come to say goodbye, so naturally they didn't dare to do too much, and after being reminded by the official media, they didn't say those unpleasant words anymore.
"Although the return home was originally a merchant, but now the Lord Gui and my family are officials in the same court, and in the future, with this relationship of children, my family will take more care of the Lord Gui......" The second housekeeper turned his head again, and his tone became much kinder, if he annoyed the old lady, he couldn't do the errand, and he might not know how to play the character when he went back.
It seems that she has already seen what the old lady Gui wants, and when she said this, the old lady's originally blue face was immediately relieved.
Speaking of which, this Luo family has a much more prominent status in the court than the Na An family.
"In this case, I will make the decision on this matter, and you will go back and check the auspicious day and come back." The old lady didn't have the same knowledge as these two ignorant minions, so naturally it was important to be a family, so she didn't talk nonsense with them.
Unexpectedly, the second housekeeper shook his head with a smile, and said: "No need to check, no need to check, tomorrow is the best time, when the time comes, it will be very cheap to drive four sedan chairs from home to Luofu, as for the dowry, the old lady just rest assured, our young master said that he will follow the regulations of the concubine......"
"What did you say?" The old lady was shocked and said loudly: "Concubine? Your Luo family is not marrying a wife, but a concubine? ”
"Oh, old lady, it's not a concubine, the concubine's dowry is just our eldest young master to show the importance of Miss Gui, and now it is naturally a concubine, as for the concubine, it depends on Miss Gui's performance in the future, and it is not impossible for a concubine to give birth to a child one day...... As for marrying a wife, the old lady is not joking, our master is a second-class member of the court, how could he let the young master marry the daughter of a petty official of a ququ merchant, and besides, our Luo family got married earlier than the daughter of the ten thousand adults in the court, but the young grandmother has not yet entered the door. Miss Gui entered the door earlier than the young grandmother, and this unique respect was only begged by the eldest young master after begging my old lady! ”
The mother-in-law explained with a smug face, and the second housekeeper also echoed it.
"Someone, send off!"
Just when they were all proud, the old lady held back her raging anger and only shouted, and a few strong mothers-in-law came in the courtyard to see off the guests.
"What do you mean, old lady?" The second housekeeper was puzzled: "Didn't you say it before, and you agreed." ”
"Get out!" This Luo family is simply too deceitful!
The old lady came from the family of military generals when she was young, and when she was young, she could still fiddle with some swords and fists, and when she was older, she was also tough, and her voice was loud.
"Listen to me these dogs, I would rather marry a commoner wife than be a concubine of Zhumen!"
The old lady has always looked down on the concubine room, and these short-sighted people have been talking here for a long time that they want to carry Diancui into the Luo family as a concubine!
The official media saw that the old lady was angry, and it was difficult to say anything, so she had to bow apologetically and leave quickly.
The two people of the Luo family are unrelenting:
"What are you pretending to be high and not being a concubine with others? What are you kidding, do you think you are a great family when you come home? Didn't the eldest lady of your family go there to settle down and become a flat wife, a flat wife? Phew! It's a good wife, it's not that it's not right, it's just a concubine with a higher status, and you can't be a real wife for the rest of your life, so you don't deceive yourself! ”
"My wife can't control her if she becomes a wife or not, but now this granddaughter in my house will be raised by me for the rest of her life, and she will not be a concubine with others. That's all it takes, you don't get out of here. When the old lady heard them say this, she did not refute it, but only urged them to get out of the house quickly.
When the three of them were driven out with brooms by several strong mothers-in-law, the Wu family in the east courtyard heard the news, threw away the account book in their hands, and went to see their mother-in-law in three steps and two steps.
"Mother-in-law heard that the Luo family came to ask for marriage...... Wu Shi came into the old lady's house with a calm face, but saw a mess all over the ground: "What about people, if you don't come, hurry up and clean up here." ”
The old lady is old, in case she accidentally gets stabbed in the ...... Wu Shi was displeased, the mother-in-law and maid in the old lady's yard had not always been the most capable and obedient, how could it be that at this time, there was no one who came in to listen to the instructions.
This is indeed Wu's misunderstanding of these subordinates, how many years have they not seen the old lady so atmospheric, and they have already been so frightened that they dare not breathe, let alone touch the old lady's brows.
After the little maid finished cleaning up the broken tea cups and saucers on the ground, she quickly retreated. Wu saw that the old lady was really angry, so he stepped forward to be angry with her.
After a long time, the old lady said fiercely: "That surnamed Luo is simply too deceitful, and he actually wants to call Sister Cui a concubine and do his spring and autumn dream!" ”
After speaking, he looked at the Wu family again, and said fiercely: "Although I don't know why the kid surnamed Luo would ask someone to kiss, I am sure that he and Sister Cui have met for a long time." You go back and tell Sister Cui, if it's really like what the two dog minions said, it was the one surnamed Luo who she shamelessly seduced first, I will break her legs! ”
"How could my mother-in-law look at Sister Cui like this, I dare to pack a ticket, my daughter will definitely not do such a thing!" Wu hurriedly argued.
"Humph! Preferably as you say! The old lady snorted.
Wu didn't expect the old lady to be so angry, when Gui Chuyu committed such an ugly thing, she didn't see her frown, but this time it was as if she was going to eat the kid surnamed Luo.
Approaching the old lady, Wu Shi stretched out his hand and rested it on her shoulder.
"Do what?" The old lady frowned and said angrily.
Wu said with a smile: "Being angry hurts the most, I'll rub it for my mother-in-law, and it will be looser." ”
The old lady snorted twice, and she was a little uncomfortable with how her hard-tempered daughter-in-law was suddenly so close.
"The daughter-in-law knows that her mother-in-law loves Sister Cui, so she is so angry, and all along, the daughter-in-law still thinks that you don't like her......" Wu Shi muttered.
At the beginning, Chu Yu was so flattered in front of the old lady, and there was such an ugly thing, and the old lady never came forward to punish her, and she didn't even ask, this time the Luo family, which was higher and more powerful than the An family's official rank, came to take some Cui as a concubine, but she didn't expect the old lady to be so angry.
