Chapter 186: Marriage
When Shi Qingqian returned to the living room, he saw the old lady with a meaningful smile on her face.
"Grandmother, you look at Qi'er like this, but what is on Qi'er's face?" Shi Qingqian was stared at by the old lady's expression, shrugged his nose, and made it to his seat.
The old lady stared at her with a smile and said, "What did Bao girl do?" ”
Shi Qing's cheeks flushed, it turned out that his grandmother was seventy years old, and she still had a gossip heart, "You just went out to say goodbye to the little prince, grandmother, don't think about it." ”
The old lady smiled, and did not reply directly to Shi Qingqian's words, but turned her head to look at the eldest lady, "Ran Niang'er, Qi'er is not too young, have you worried about her marriage?" ”
When Shi Qingqian heard this, her pupils shrank in a circle with shame, as a woman in the 21st century, she was very familiar with the 'aunt smile' on the old lady's face! Isn't this the self when you knock cp!
The eldest lady seemed to feel that she was slightly derelict in her duties, so she frowned lightly and smiled humbly, "Mother, you are still young." ”
"Tsk," the old lady smacked her lips, with a slightly reproachful look, "Qi'er is the concubine of my Hou Mansion, and she is the lord of Baoying County personally appointed by the emperor, and her marriage is in a hurry!" Start preparing early, so that she can get married in the future. ”
The old lady paused for a moment and looked at the flush on Shi Qingqi's face, "Besides, the Langjun of the widow must be one in a million Qilin talents, you parents, you should be dotted from now on, especially the son-in-law of our Hou Mansion, you have to keep your eyes open like a bell and choose carefully." ”
Regarding the matter between Shen Xiao Wang Ye and Shi Qingqi, the old lady also heard a little, her old man didn't know the taboo in the eldest lady's heart, and she was particularly optimistic about this Shen Xiao Wangye, so she thought about pushing the boat down the river and pushing the two of them together.
"One more thing, the future husband of the child...... The status must be above the Hou Mansion! The old lady said firmly, "The concubine of our Hou Mansion must not be married." ”
The prime minister is already the highest title in the court, and on the top, there are only the left prime minister and the right prime minister. Prime Minister Zuo did not have much contact with the Hou Mansion, and his power was gradually shrinking; The right prime minister is Na Mo Ruan, and the Hou Mansion are two opposite parties politically, and it is even more impossible for the Hou Mansion to marry Mo Ruan.
From this point of view, among the people who are 'above the Hou Mansion', who still want dragons and phoenixes, and who are of the right age, are not the only five princes of the royal family, Shen Mi...... And Yan Wangye.
Everyone knew in their hearts, this old lady was twisting and turning, just to ask Shi Yuan and the eldest lady to try their best to facilitate Shi Qingqian and Shen Xiaowangye.
Shi Shuning and Shi Zhenxiang, who were listening on the sidelines, were already pale.
It's funny to say, these two sisters have never dealt with each other, but they can empathize with each other everywhere, and even the change in their faces is so 'tacit'.
The two of them were born in the same year, and Shi Shuning was only two months older than Shi Zhenxiang.
But...... It's good that Shi Qingqian is only ten years old now, but they are already fourteen! Next year is the year of the marriage!
The old lady was only thinking about Shi Qingqian, who was still a few years away, and she didn't even mention a word to the two of them.
What's the matter, Shi Qingqian's marriage is a big deal, is their marriage a small matter?
Shi Qingqian breathed a sigh of relief on the side, every time she mentioned this kind of topic, she would subconsciously look at Shi Shuning and Shi Zhenxiang's faces. Sure enough, it satisfies her every time.
It's just that the three brothers sitting on the other side have extremely ugly faces. They don't want their precious sister to get married! I don't know which pig will be cheaper in the future!
"Grandmother, there are still five years before you can reach your birthday, and my mother has already promised her that she will not let me marry unless she can see someone she really likes." Shi Qingqian took the old lady's somewhat rough hand and shook it a few times, "Grandmother is afraid that she has forgotten her two sisters, they will be married next year, and they haven't started looking for a marriage partner yet." ”
Shi Qingqian is not an idle egg to make wedding dresses for others, not to mention two people she doesn't like, she just thinks that these two people will marry early, and she will be able to get peace in the Hou Mansion earlier.
The old lady turned the Buddha beads in her hand twice, as if she remembered it after being reminded by Shi Qingqian, "Yes, yes, yes...... There is also the marriage between Sister Ning and Sister Xiang, Ran Niang'er, you are the housemother, you should also put some effort into it. ”
Hearing this, the eldest lady replied: "Mother, the two of them have been looking for a marriage concubine, looking for a few suitable sons, and asking the second lady and Lin Xiaoniang to convey to their children, but they have never heard back, and they have not been able to do it every time. ”
I saw the corners of Lin Xiaoniang's mouth twitch, the eldest lady was the son who had told her a lot, but she then inquired in private, and the sons mentioned by the eldest lady were either five big and three coarse, or weak in literature, and there was not even one who could be literate and martial! With such crooked melons and cracked dates, she refused to ask her Xiang'er to marry her!
In fact, which daughter of the Hou Mansion has to sell her marriage for the sake of political marriage? The Hou Mansion spoiled Shi Qingqian and couldn't bear to let her wear out her nature, so the burden of this political marriage could only be borne by the two concubines.
The eldest lady chose a son-in-law for her two concubines, and the first consideration was whether their husbands' families could support the Hou Mansion.
"Oh? Is it," the old lady smiled, "It seems that these two girls are too high-minded, and they don't look down on the ones you picked Ran Niang'er." ”
The eldest lady was not annoyed, she knew that the marriage of these two concubines was finally in the hands of Dafang, so she also smiled and asked: "I just mentioned this matter today, Sister Ning, Sister Xiang, you can talk about it, what is the wishful husband?" If it's really suitable, your big daddy will match you up. ”
Mrs. Erfang, who was sitting next to Shi Shuning, carefully accompanied the smiling face, "Sister-in-law, it's not that Ning'er has a high vision, it's just that Ning'er is born with a phoenix life, and the concubine body feels ...... If she marries hastily, she will go against her fate. ”
As soon as she said this, everyone remembered that there was still a concubine in the Hou Mansion when the 'phoenix life'.
"Also, Sister Ning'er's life is not simple," the eldest lady nodded, but she was very unconvinced in her heart, she was a phoenix's life, so could her own life be a god's fate? I really don't know how Shi Shuning has a good life, and as soon as she was born, she met a fortune teller, saying that she was a phoenix, "Then, Sister Xiang'er, do you have any ideas?" ”
Shi Zhenxiang bit her lip.
It sounds like a concubine, a phoenix, and in the end, only she is the most humble and inconspicuous one in the Hou Mansion? Her slender fingers clenched into fists, and the nails left a crescent-shaped mark on the flesh of her palm.
If she doesn't fight, how can she have a future!
"Mu ...... Mu Xiaogongzi returned to Beijing a few months ago......"
