Chapter 616: Future Sister-in-law
It happened to be the seventh day of July.
Chungui went to the inner kitchen by himself and made two meals - lunch was for Lan Xin and Hua Ying, and dinner was dedicated to Uncle Zhao.
But Uncle Zhao obviously didn't pay special attention to the Qiqiao Festival, so when he was specially invited back, and when he looked at this table and saw that it was not a delicacy cooked by the chef of Zhou Wangfu, he was inevitably a little stunned, and he was sure that he did not miss the birthday of the Spring Return and his own birthday.
"What's the point of the holiday? Isn't it because there's a legitimate reason to be lazy and have fun? Chungui smiled.
Lan Ting gladly accepted the lazy offer, and even had the idea of going out to have fun.
"I have heard that the begging festival in Jiangnan is more lively than in the capital, and this night even the Lantern Festival is exempt from night bans, and there is a Xiangqiao will celebrate the week, why don't we go to the market for a visit?"
"It's all my son, and if I go out for a walk and have fun, won't I be able to settle it in the middle of the night? I haven't slept much these days, so instead of wasting time on the road, it's better for us to talk and rest early. Chungui actually wanted to go out and have fun, but when she thought of many trivial matters, she couldn't even raise her interest.
Besides, Lan Ting is indeed several times more tired than her, how can she really have the spirit of having fun? It's just for her sake, she should be more virtuous and considerate.
"I do have something important to discuss with me today." Chungui poured a glass of wine for Lan Ting.
I slowly said a change in my sister-in-law.
Lan Ting almost didn't smash the wine glass on the ground: "Lan Xin is really getting more and more disagreeable!" ”
"I think the second sister has made great progress." Chungui smiled and persuaded: "At least I know that I did something wrong, and I know how to be soft, and this time she didn't exercise any conspiracy, and her intentions are indeed not evil, but she is young, her love is just beginning, and she is used to acting unscrupulously, so she is so bold in doing things, although she is wrong, but she is much more upright than before, which is all thanks to Sergeant Ruan's credit, and in the end she still corrected the second sister's temperament." ”
"Even if she really has no ill will towards her cousin, it is against the faith of her friends to do so."
"Which person did the second sister really regard as a friend in the past? Her son's feeling a little guilty about Sister Ying has already grown up, and there are still signs that he can change his mistakes, and I even feel relieved. "Spring return is not an exaggeration at all, and it is difficult to "correct" Sister Lanxin.
Lan Ting couldn't cry or laugh: "It's just that I'm embarrassed by Huihui again, because of this matter, I'm afraid that my grandfather and uncle will complain." ”
"The relatives and elders are all reasonable people, and I really think that Zhou Jiexu doesn't care about Sister Ying, wouldn't Sister Ying really want to marry him for life? Sister Ying deserves a better marriage, Zhou
Jie Xu is not worthy of Sister Ying at all...... I don't hide it, in my opinion, Zhou Jiexu is not a good match at all, but Sister Ying can think through this matter, and the second sister may not be able to think through it, I, in the end, I am still partial to Sister Ying, so don't feel guilty. ”
"When I don't know what you're really thinking." Lan Ting shook his head and hugged Chun Gui into his arms: "Zhou Jiexu is naturally not a gentleman, and he doesn't know that his father and ancestor are his cousins, of course, this matter was provoked by Lan Xin first, but if Zhou Jiexu is determined, he will not make things to this point, the only thing that is desirable is that he is not completely unresponsible, at least he dares to explain his wishes to his parents first." That's why you think that he may not be a despicable person, maybe because he has a shallow history, is a young man, and is not thoughtful enough, but his character is not too flawed. That's it, I'll give him a chance this week. ”
"Don't wait for the second sister to make a decision." Spring Returns.
"It's okay, I'll see Zhou Xiaolang first, and if he's unreliable, I'll directly warn Lan Xin." Lan Ting frowned as she spoke: "What decision can she make?" I've only met people a few times, and I dare to say that I don't even want to marry! What else could she decide? I can't watch her jump into the kang by herself because she is young and ignorant. ”
Chungui looked at Lan Ting.
Uncle Zhao, do you know that you are a fire pit in the eyes of Tao Cairen? No, Your Excellency is simply a human field!
Deputy Envoy Zhao's investigation will naturally not be sloppy, and there will be no results after more than ten days, but Li Gong went to Zhou's house in person, and said that there is no need to mention the marriage, Mrs. Zhou came to Wu Wanggong first, and she didn't dare to say anything about each other, she just wanted to apologize and thank you, but Chun Gui specially called Lan Xin to accompany her.
She didn't believe in Lan Xin's vision, but she believed in the vision of her grandfather and uncle, in fact, she also knew that although Zhou Jiexu must not be as calm and talented as Lan Ting, Lan Ting was originally an outlier, and her future uncle naturally couldn't compare it to Lan Ting's standards, Zhou Jiexu's character should not be bad, and Lan Ting didn't account for the Zhou family's family was far inferior to Taishifu, who made Lan Xin happy? Although Lan Ting is extremely distant and cold from his sister on the surface, he has never disliked Lan Xin in his selfish heart.
To put it bluntly, the face is cold and the heart is hot, and the mouth is hard and soft.
As long as Lan Xin does not change the hexagram in this marriage, it is enough to write eight characters.
As for the wishes of the in-laws, Chungui didn't care at all, let alone Lan Ting's backing, and I was afraid that if Lan Xin's sister made a fuss, the eldest lord and Mrs. Shen would only have to compromise.
When it was approaching August, Lan Ting finally gave Chungui a word of accuracy: "The Zhou family will come to send his kid's Geng post in a few days, and Hui Hui feels that they are still enthusiastic, so he will also hand over the second sister's Geng post to them."
bar. ”
This is Zhou Xiaolangjun finally passed the assessment of Deputy Envoy Zhao.
At the beginning of August, the Zhou family sent Geng Ti, and Chun Gui also handed over Lan Xin's Geng Ti to the Zhou family, but because Lan Ting had no intention of letting his sister get married so soon, Cheng Yi was not in a hurry to carry out the marriage, but Mrs. Zhou invited Chun Hui to Zhou's house as a guest, and Chun Gui agreed.
She also finally met Lan Xin's sister Feijun's sweetheart who would not marry.
Zhou Xiaolang's age is actually not yet sixteen, but his eyebrows and eyes are a little sharp, and his temperament is also a little talkative, because Chungui asked about his schoolwork, and his tone was even a little spicy when he answered, but it was not for Chungui, but only to express his different views on some scriptures and historical interpretations, Mrs. Zhou didn't know whether her son's opinion was right or wrong, she was only afraid that it would cause misunderstanding of Chungui, and smiled to ease the atmosphere: "The little dog is really not used to socializing, and this is the tone when he usually argues with his classmates about schoolwork, and I also reminded him not to be so arrogant." , but it could not correct his temperament. ”
"The son is according to the teacher's teaching, and the gentleman is not as simple as he is practiced, and he is not as cautious as he is mad."
Mrs. Zhou: ......
"Didn't your grandfather teach you to be humble?" The mother actually argued with her son.
"Humility is not in words and deeds, but in heart."
Mrs. Zhou: ......
"Gu Yiren compares his son's schoolwork, if his son doesn't show his truth, won't Gu Yiren misunderstand his son's stupidity?"
Mrs. Zhou held her forehead and was defeated.
She sent her baby son away before saying: "The little dog is such a straight temper, although when I took him to visit the Wu Palace, I also told him that it was for the sake of seeing each other, and the Li family and our family also had to watch him and the second girl Li take it seriously, and then they would officially get married, but he thought that he had to let him nod before he got married...... Later, when he received a letter from Zhao Er, he also believed that he was really just talking about poetry and fu, and he had a good impression of Zhao Er, because Zhao Ergirl was studious and progressive. ”
Spring Return: ......
She kind of believed that Zhou Xiaolang was indeed so simple.
"So the two children themselves agreed on a lifelong event, the little dog actually thought it was logical, and told his father and ancestor that after looking at each other, he thought that he had a common preference with Zhao Er, and Li Ergirl could not talk about going together, not hiding Gu Yiren, I was angry and anxious and couldn't cry and laugh."
Chun Gui is very considerate of Mrs. Zhou's feelings, but she believes in Lan Ting's vision more, since Lan Ting approved this marriage, it must be that Zhou Xiaolang is indeed a righteous gentleman, not to mention, in the future, he will be able to restrain Lan Xin's words and deeds to correct the sister-in-law's obedient heart.
It seems that the matter of marriage is still true, and everyone has their own fate.
