Chapter Thirty-Six: Proposing Marriage, Don't Think
Finally waiting for Xie Rushi to come back, Yu Xiaohuan couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Shi, how are you doing?" ”
"My knee is broken, I'm afraid I'll have to give birth for a few days." Xie said truthfully.
Listening to it, there was nothing big of a problem, and Yu Xiaohuan immediately asked her most doubtful question: "What's going on today, is it so different from the plot we originally finalized?" ”
Xie said truthfully: "Hey, how can the masters in that temple be ordinary people who can be bought, I wasted a lot of effort and couldn't do it, so I had to find a warlock outside." ”
"It turns out that the Taoist priest is your handiwork." Yu Xiaohuan thought thoughtfully, "Since the master was not bought by you, then what he said must be true, in that case, brother, I think the matter between you and Qin Dou'er will be successful!" ”
Xie Rushi couldn't hide the joy in his heart, pursed his lips and laughed, and asked after a while: "What is my mother's impression of Qin Dou'er today?" ”
Yu Xiaohuan hesitated for a moment, "I was quite satisfied, after all, Qin Dou'er is a virtuous and well-behaved and sensible girl at first glance." ”
Xie Rushi knew that there was a follow-up to these words, and asked, "What about the result?" ”
"The eldest lady sent someone to check Qin Dou'er's family background." Yu Xiaohuan said with some disappointment, "The capital is so big, it must be a result soon." ”
Xie Rushi's smile suddenly dissipated, and what he was most worried about still happened.
Granny Rong hurriedly came in from the back door, walked straight to the courtyard of the eldest lady, retreated left and right, leaned into the eldest lady's ear and whispered a few words, and the eldest lady suddenly became restless.
After thinking for a moment, the eldest lady said to herself: "No, how can such a small family be worthy of my real son?" ”
Granny Rong said cautiously: "What the eldest lady said is true, but the real son seems to be quite interested in this girl. ”
"That's why I'm in a hurry." The eldest lady almost didn't shoot the case, "I'm really angry, there are so many good families like the daughter of the Hou Mansion, but they don't match." I retreated to the next best thing, and chose the daughter of my sister's family, at least she was close to each other, and she knew the roots, but her fate was hedged against me. This is finally met with a person who has a fate with Shi'er, but the family is not high, and there is no shade on the ancestors, and now there is only one brother in the family who works in the imperial court, and the official position is not as big as my family's Shi'er, and what is even more annoying is that she doesn't even have parents in her family, which unlucky family dares to marry home? I can't accept it anyway. ”
Before the eldest lady's bad annoyance could be swallowed, Xie Rushi came. He listened to Yu Xiaohuan's saying that "striking iron should be while it is hot", so he came to ask his mother to propose to the Qin family for him.
After listening to him, the eldest lady was so angry that she didn't mention it in one breath, and almost fainted. When she regained her strength, she immediately said: "No, I will never agree to this family business." ”
"Why, Mother?" Xie Rushi didn't expect his mother's Tai to be so tough, and hurriedly retorted, "You have also seen her today, she is beautiful and kind, and more importantly, her son loves her in his heart and wants to join hands with her to grow old." ”
"Bastard thing!" The eldest lady took the case, "Marriage has always been the decision of the parents, and the attention is to the right person, don't think that I used to spoil you and get used to you, you can do whatever you want." ”
"Mother, why can't you agree?" In fact, he had the answer in his heart, but he didn't want to believe that his mother would be the kind of person who would rather gamble on her son's happiness.
People always like to deceive themselves.
As a result, the eldest lady shouted a few words hoarsely: "Because, she is not worthy!" ”
This big lady, although her IQ is not very good, but she will be very strong for a lifetime, no matter how good Qin Dou'er is, after all, her background is not good, she wants an in-law who is evenly matched or even Gao Pan, how can she let such a small family climb her.
Xie Rushi was stunned on the spot, and asked solemnly: "Is it because her family is just a small family in this huge capital?" ”
"She has no father and no mother!" The eldest lady added.
Xie Rushi continued: "Yes, she has no father and no mother, but her eldest brother and I used to be classmates, he won fame by himself, and now he is an official in the same dynasty with me, I don't know how many times stronger than those gentlemen, I admire him from the bottom of my heart!" ”
"So what!" The eldest lady was unmoved, "With the strength of our Xie family, in this capital full of talents, what kind of family is not found, I don't want to find a family that can help you soar, but at least it can't drag our Xie family back, our Xie family is a big family with a head and a face and a decent face in this huge capital, you can't find such a small family as a wife, it will make our family a laughing stock in the capital." ”
Xie Rushi never thought that he would disobey his mother one day, let alone that he fought so hard for a girl. But after listening to his mother's words, he no longer wanted to endure them in a roundabout way, because they came from his mother's mouth, and he felt very ashamed.
He said resolutely: "What if I don't marry her? ”
The eldest lady was angry and also said cruelly: "You...... Don't think about it, unless I die first! ”
The vigorous negotiations failed. Mother said this, Xie Rushi didn't dare to really make his mother angry, so he had to hold back his anger and hurriedly returned to his courtyard.
He hid in his room, unable to calm down for a long time. Caught in this dilemma, although he had expected it, it was still very uncomfortable. On the one hand, he felt that he was very disrespectful to his mother just now, which was simply a big rebellion, but when he thought that he was actually for a favorite woman, he felt a little comforted in his heart, and he was really unwilling to give up, not to mention that he had already expressed his heart when he sent Qin Dou'er to see the doctor, how could he turn around and go back on his word?
Thinking of the long road of love, Xie Rushi's heart couldn't help but tighten, this was just the beginning, his mother had already put down her cruel words to fight with her life, and then there was a stern father and a grandmother with an unknown attitude, if both of them objected, I am afraid he would have to retreat.
But fortunately, in this family, there is at least one person who supports him, that is, his half-sister Xie Ruyin. The strange thing is that his sister knelt in the ancestral hall and fainted, and after being ill, she was even more reborn as if she had become a person, and she was no longer the forbearant and stubborn little girl she used to be, but this is fine, he doesn't always have to feel sorry for the aggrieved little girl, not to mention that now, this little girl is very ghostly, and she can give him advice as an elder brother. Although he didn't know whether these ideas were reliable or not, at least someone would accompany him to move forward, and he wouldn't hesitate to retreat.
