Chapter 55: Talking about the Matchmaker

When Mu Yu woke up, Shen Mei had been guarding her by the bed for more than three days, and she snorted uncomfortably, alarming Shen Mei who was lying on the side of the bed.

"Rumors? Are you awake? Shen Mei sat up straight in surprise and carefully helped her up. What's wrong with you? ”

"Mother?" Mu Yu's voice was hoarse, and he forced two sentences.

Shen Mei waved his hand at Qionglan, brought a bowl of warm water, put the porcelain bowl against her dry lips, and tilted slightly, "Quick, drink some water to moisten your throat first." ”

Mu Yu looked at Shen Mei guiltily and apologized weakly, "I'm fine, I'm worried about me again." ”

"You kid, I'm worried you shouldn't be?" Shen Mei smiled from the bottom of his heart, and his eyes were full of tiredness.

"Mother, get up and have a good rest, I have Qionglan to take care of here, you don't have to worry." Mu Yu held Shen Mei's slightly cool hand and said distressedly.

Shen Mei didn't shirk either, she didn't close her eyes for a few days and nights, and her body was indeed a little unbearable, so she handed the water bowl to Qionglan and gave her some instructions before leaving.

Mu Yu's illness came and went quickly, and he rested for a few days in a row, and his face was ruddy as if he had never been sick at all, but he tossed Shen Mei enough to choke until Mu Yu ran all over the yard again.

"Qionglan, the front yard seems to be very lively today!" Mu Yu has been idle for many days, and suddenly saw the lively and lively courtyard, and he was inevitably curious.

Qionglan smiled and poured a cup of tea for Mu Yu, "Maybe there are guests coming." ”

"Guest, what kind of guest does this have to be to make these people look so happy one by one?" Mu Yu half-leaned on the table, "You said we should go and have a look?" ”

"Miss, you still don't want to go." Qionglan stopped, "It's too chaotic ahead, if someone accidentally bumps into you, it's not good." ”

"Bump into me? How so? Mu Yu got up, Qionglan put down the teapot and blocked her in a panic, "Miss, Miss, you better rest here, if the old lady sees it, I will worry about you again." ”

"I'm just going to the front yard, what's there to worry about?" Mu Yan was even more puzzled when he saw Qionglan stopping like this, Qionglan obviously had something to hide from herself, and she didn't want to let herself go to the front yard.

"Okay, okay, I won't go, I just want to eat apricot blossom cake, you go and get me some." The more Qionglan deliberately got in the way, the more she wanted to see what was going on in the front yard and why the good-natured Qionglan didn't let her pass.

Where did Qionglan think that Mu Yu was a tiger away from the mountain, but when Mu Yu really didn't want to go to the front yard, she went to the kitchen to get the apricot cake with confidence.

Mu Yu took advantage of her leaving, tiptoed to the front yard, and hid around the corner to see many subordinates carrying red boxes and walking towards the main hall.

She hadn't seen those people, obviously none of them were the family members of the Luanping Marquis Mansion, these people were all happy, I don't know what was good, why did Qionglan stop herself?

She casually pulled over a maid and pouted towards the main hall, "What are they moving here, box after box, it looks quite heavy." ”

"Miss Hui's words are all dowry." The maid replied respectfully.

"Dowry?" In this Luanping Marquis Mansion, except for the concubine who has gone to the temple in the second room, there is only one young lady left, and she is not married, how can she come to the dowry? "Whose dowry?"

The maid was stunned for a moment, "Of course it's Miss you." ”

"Mine?" Mu Yu is even more strange, how come she doesn't know about the dowry gift given to her? Just now, Qionglan deliberately prevented herself from coming to the front yard, could it be that her parents carried her behind her back and engaged her?

She let go of the maid and walked quickly to the front hall, and sure enough, her parents were sitting in a precarious position, looking at the matchmaker who was talking about the sky seriously, and seemed unmoved.

It's just that the second elder saw Mu Yu walking into the hall quickly, and he was a little panicked in an instant.

"Rumor, why are you here?" Shen Mei glanced at Mu Heyun and asked a little unnaturally.

Mu Yu glanced at the matchmaker in a floral dress, "Daddy wants to tell me about matchmaking, how can I not come?" There was some complaint in her eyes, although she didn't listen to her father and mother some time ago, and it was true to see Xie Chongning, but the two of them saw the matchmaker behind their backs, that's not right, they love themselves so much, why should they hide it?

She turned her head and saw that the matchmaker was secretly looking at her, so she asked, "On whose behalf are you the matchmaker?" ”

The matchmaker smiled, she already knew about Luanpinghou's love for her daughter, she twisted her plump waist, trembling with laughter, knowing that if the young lady in front of her agreed, the marriage would be completed.

"Miss Hui, I'm here to propose marriage from the Acting Changting Marquis's Mansion."

"Lin Changjin?" Mu Yu's face was stunned, this Lin Changjin didn't look like a person who said one thing and did another, since he said that he would wait until he liked him, he shouldn't secretly propose marriage behind his back, so she turned her head to look at the father and daughter, with doubts in her eyes.

Shen Mei pinched the handkerchief, walked to Mu Yu and sat down, squeezed her hand, and comforted, "Yu'er, you know that your marriage has not been decided for a day, and your father and I will worry about you for a day, and we are actually all for your good." ”

The matchmaker saw the stitches, "Yes, Mrs. Hou's love for the eldest lady is well known in the capital." ”

Mu Yu raised his eyes and glanced at the matchmaker, this matchmaker was slightly chubby but kind, but she was a likable.

Shen Mei continued, "And this Changting Hou Mansion, my mother is the most familiar with it, if you go, you will definitely not be bullied in any way, and that kid from the Lin family is honest and reliable." ”

"Yes, eldest miss, the most important thing is that the son of the Lin family likes you, Mrs. Changting Hou specially instructed me, if you go, this day is not worse than the Luanping Hou Mansion." The matchmaker followed along to persuade her.

Mu Yu was amused by the matchmaker's clever appearance, and asked rhetorically, "How do you know that the days I married in the past were better than those of the Luanping Marquis Mansion?" What if it's not good? ”

"Miss, if you are worried, this is the gift list of the Marquis of Changting's mansion, this is the most generous I have said for so many years." The matchmaker presented the gift list with both hands and continued, "And ah, I also met the young master of the Lin family in person, don't look at me young, but the matchmaker I have said is not thousands but hundreds, this reading people, there are really few people who can compare with me, this young master of the Lin family, I really like you, eldest lady." ”

Shen Mei nodded at the matchmaker, "Yes, rumor, and this is just an engagement, the marriage is still after you and Lu, if you really don't like the kid of the Lin family at that time, we won't marry, and then my father and mother will call the shots for you, won't it be done to withdraw this marriage?" ”

Mu Yu also knew in her heart that what her mother said was just a delaying tactic, if she agreed now, I am afraid that there will be no chance of regretting marriage in the future.

But she can more or less understand her parents' worries, after all, this is in ancient times, there were many people who married at the age of fourteen, even if they didn't marry, they were all engaged, and they were about to get married, and it was normal for them to be anxious.

And she also saw that her parents really didn't like Xie Chongning, and she was afraid that she and Xie Chongning would have some feelings that she shouldn't have, so she wanted to marry herself behind her back.

Today's matchmaker came to the matchmaker, although it was the matchmaker who was actively found by the Changting Hou Mansion, but her parents must have said something to Mrs. Changting Hou first, otherwise Lin Changjin would never have invited the matchmaker without her own approval.

She lowered her head, Shen Mei couldn't see her expression, and held her hand a little tighter, "Yu'er, you know that your parents won't harm you, and we are really for your good, if you don't agree......"

"Okay, I promise." She looked at the matchmaker with a smile, Lin Changjin is a person worthy of trust, and she will try to like Lin Changjin.

"What did you say?" Shen Mei was overjoyed, and glanced at Mu Heyun in surprise. "Rumor, you agreed?" She also prepared a lot of words of persuasion, but she didn't expect her daughter to agree before she could say it.

"Well, I promise, if my father and mother really think that Lin Changjin is reliable, I will agree." She glanced at the matchmaker before leaving, and the corners of her mouth suddenly turned bitter.

Although Shen Mei thought that it would be best to get her daughter to agree, but seeing her daughter so wronged, she suddenly relented and wanted to refuse, "Master, do you say that we are too anxious." ”

"She is wronged now, but one day, she will know that we are doing this for her good." Mu Heyun sighed deeply, she immediately comforted Shen Mei when she said this, and she also comforted herself.

After the entire Luanping Marquis Mansion heard that Mu Yu was engaged, the happiest person was the old lady, only she felt that this Luanping Marquis Mansion could be regarded as throwing away this oil bottle, and I heard that the dowry sent by the Changting Marquis Mansion was very rich, and Mu Yu, this girl, made such a little contribution.

At the dinner once a month in the house, the old lady rarely smiled at Mu Yu, and said to Mu Yu in a good voice, "You girl has been idle, and now that she is married, it is still of some use." ”

Mu Yu's chopsticks holding the dish paused, what is it that she is still useful?

Immediately afterwards, the old lady continued, "I have also heard that the dowry sent by the Marquis of Changting Mansion is not a few, and now all of them have entered our Luanping Marquis Mansion, but it just makes up for the loss of military power received by the emperor." ”

"Grandmother, what do you mean by that?" Mu Yi listened to the old lady's words, and the more she listened, the more she felt that something was wrong, "Those are all dowry gifts for my sister, naturally they belong to my sister, how did I enter the mansion?" ”

If there is no one else in this house, it will be enough, then the people in the three rooms are like blood-sucking moths, and if the dowry of the rumor enters the house, how can there be any leftover, they will be taken away by the three rooms.

"You kid, how do you speak?" When Mrs. Ruyang heard the old lady's words, she was very happy. Since the second child was arrested, the house has made them frugal and frugal, and their lives have been a lot sader, and now with Mu Yu's dowry, their lives can be regarded as improving.

"How can this dowry be said to be a rumor for the water spilled by the daughter who has been married since ancient times? Of course, it belongs to the house, and it can be regarded as a rumor to repay us for our kindness to her. ”
