Chapter 441: Eavesdropping
Xiao Yushi saw that Chu Yuqin did not enter the lobby directly, but went to the side hall next to it.
Chu Yuqin made a silent gesture towards Xiao Yu's clan.
Xiao Yu understood Chu Yuqin's intentions and followed her into the side hall next to her.
Chu Yuqin moved the paintings on the wall. I saw a small hole there.
She watched the lobby from the small hole.
Chu Dashan and the Yu clan sat on the main seat. Duke Ling Guo and Duchess Ling Guo sat in the guest seats.
"Time is a little short. Let's not care about those false courtesies. You see, the dowry has also been delivered. Shouldn't you take an inventory? Duchess Ling Guo said lightly.
Ling Guogong took a sip of tea from his teacup.
Suddenly, there was a pause in his movements.
I thought I was a nouveau riche, but I didn't expect it to be quite tasteful. The tea was mellow and delicious, and it was very much to his liking.
Yu said: "We have seen the dowry of your mansion. It's just that some details still need to be talked about. You see, in order to save the injured driver like this, I am afraid that he needs to recuperate in a short time. If they are allowed to live in the Lingguo Mansion, there are so many people in the mansion, I am afraid that it will disturb the rest of the prince's recuperation. It's better that their wedding room is set in the prince's courtyard! This also makes it easier for him to meditate and recuperate. ”
"This ......" Duchess Ling Guo looked at Ling Guogong.
Ling Guogong put down the teacup in his hand and said lightly: "Yi'er is the son of Ling Guogong's mansion. How can there be a reason for a son to marry but not live in the Guogong Mansion? You don't understand the rules of the family, and we don't blame you. Just don't say that again. If someone else hears it, I'm afraid it will cause a joke. ”
Chu Yuqin, who was next door, heard Ling Guogong say this, and a sneer flashed in his eyes.
Xiao Yu also said angrily: "The people of the Ling Guo Mansion are really rude. also said that we don't understand the rules of the family, and I think they are the clowns. ”
"Not everyone in a big family is like that. It can only be said that what we met was wonderful. Chu Yuqin said: "Brother Ling is such a good person, he actually has such a father. But that's right, if it weren't for such a father, he wouldn't have been sent out of Beijing for so many years and has been growing up outside. If it weren't for such a father, the Ling Guo Mansion would not be so complicated. ”
The eldest son is a mother, Ling Shengyi is another mother, and now her stepmother has given birth to a son-in-law. Not counting the concubines and rooms. It can be seen how attentive Ling Guogong is.
"Why the joke?" The Yu clan seems to have been opened up to the second vein of Ren Du.
I used to be as timid as a mouse, and I couldn't speak when I saw a nobleman. Ever since she was stimulated by Chu Dashan and Jasper's affairs, she had spoken a lot.
And in this case, it needs her 'impulsiveness' instead.
When the Yu clan spoke, Ling Guogong couldn't speak. After all, men and women are careful, and they seem to be very ungraceful. Although no one else saw it here, and he didn't have the grace to spread it, it was his pride from the bottom of his bones.
"Let's not talk about that! There are a lot of things waiting for me to go back and deal with them. Our grandfather also has official business to do. Squeezing time to give a dowry today is enough to prove that our Ling Guo Mansion attaches great importance to Miss Chu. You said that you were afraid that others would disturb the purity of the world. Isn't that simple? I set aside a clean courtyard and left three or five servants who could not talk much to serve them. Then no one will disturb their purity. ”
"Since ancient times, it has been difficult to be a mother! After all, I didn't give birth to the son. If I get married outside when I get married, I don't know how others will arrange me, the Duchess of Lingguo. My in-laws don't think about others, but they also have to think about my reputation, right? We're all women. Why should women be embarrassed by women? ”
Chu Yuqin secretly screamed that it was not good.
This woman is really cunning, and she actually poked at the weakness of the Yu family.
The Yu clan is the easiest to relent. If she had been stronger, maybe she would have persevered to the end. But Duchess Ling Guo was so kind of talkative, and the Yu family began to hesitate.
Chu Yuqin knocked on the wall.
Yu looked up and looked in the direction of the wall.
Her eyes were good, and she could see the small hole in the wall at a glance.
Yu came back to his senses and said, "It's not easy for the Duchess of Guo, everyone knows it. I'm not embarrassed for you. We are in-laws, how can I embarrass my own people? Everyone knew that the prince was seriously injured and couldn't wake up in a short time. You're afraid of affecting your reputation, I can be this bad guy. When the time comes, everyone will know that this is what I requested, and naturally they will not say anything more. Even if the emperor asks, I can explain it clearly. In short, it is okay to get married, but they can't live in the national mansion. After you think about it, let's make a dowry! ”
"You guys are really unreasonable. Is this pro still successful? Ling Guogong stood up angrily.
"Whether it succeeds or not depends on the grandfather of the country." Chu Dashan pressed the back of Yu's hand and looked at Ling Guogong indifferently. "We only have this one small request, if your house can't do it, we can only say that our two families don't have this fate. While the marriage is not yet ready, it is too late to regret it. ”
"This is a family affair given by the emperor himself. Do you still dare to resist the decree? The public of your country doesn't dare, but you dare as a little civilian? Ling Guogong sneered.
"Our family Qin'er once got a promise from the emperor, as long as it was her request, the emperor agreed unconditionally. It may be useful at this time. Chu Dashan's face did not change and said things that even Chu Yuqin didn't know.
"Grandpa Guo......" Duchess Ling Guo said, "Forget it." If they want to live in that courtyard, they will live there! We didn't drive them anyway. They can't blame us. ”
Duchess Ling Guo's face was calm, and her heart was on fire.
She also didn't want Chu Yuqin and Ling Shengyi to go to live in another hospital.
You must know that they live in another courtyard, and her hand will not reach so long.
But the people of the Chu family insisted on this, if the stalemate continued, I am afraid that they would not be able to get benefits. It's better to accept it when you see it, so as not to lose face.
Ling Guogong was so angry that he couldn't do it.
He said coldly, "Okay." If you don't like the good Lingguo Mansion, then go live in another courtyard! What else? Just say it all at once. ”
"We Yuqin are very busy people. After getting married, I'm afraid there is no time to settle the province in the morning and dusk. Yu continued: "I hope the two of you will take care of it when the time comes. After all, if you live in another courtyard, if you still go back to the province every day, I'm afraid that others will say that such a father-in-law and mother-in-law are unkind and deliberately embarrass the two newcomers, right? ”
Chu Yuqin's eyes turned red when he heard that the Yu clan was fighting for his own interests.
When she made this decision, she did not consult with the Yu clan and Chu Dashan. They must be angry. But even so, he still respected her decision, and even planned for her.
"Your father and mother are honest people. But after getting the news, they don't think about how to stop you, but about the safety of the name Minmin. Xiao Yu said: "You girl, it really breaks their hearts." You'll have to do well in the future. Together, we'll find a way to wake up the prince. As long as he wakes up, we naturally don't worry. ”
