Chapter 250: The Marriage Is Finalized
Not only did she the second wife of the Ping family want to regret her marriage, but Princess Mu also had the heart to regret her marriage.
But the dowry of the Pingning Hou Mansion is too expensive, not long after the two children got engaged, Mrs. Pingning Hou called the little maid to escort more than a dozen cars of dowry over, not to mention hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
If they want to repent of their marriage, they can return this dowry three times, and the marriage will be completely ruined. And those who watched King Mu's Mansion didn't know what reason they came up with behind their backs to arrange the county lord.
The daughter's original marriage with the prince of Dingwu Hou had been personally brought over by Dingwu Hou's wife Tao to say goodbye and was withdrawn. Now because of the girl's escape from the marriage, the marriage of the Marquis of Pingning has been ruined, how will the world think of his daughter? What do you think of Muwangfu?
Maybe they will speculate that their daughter is suffering from some hidden disease, and the people who were determined by the Marquis of Wu and the Marquis of Pingning know that the two Hou Yew's wives came to withdraw from the marriage in person?
Looking at Mrs. Pingninghou who was sitting on the sour branch wooden chair in front of her, Princess Mu held back the anger surging in her heart, and with a shallow smile, she let the maid serving below serve tea before saying.
"Mrs. Hou, Sister Ping, where are you talking about? The county lord just went to her grandfather's house, and the old man was old, so he inevitably felt sorry for his children and grandchildren, and wanted to take a look. A few days ago, her grandfather was sick, so I asked her to stay at Cai's house and pick her up after a while. β
As Princess Mu spoke, the maid who was waiting below had already brought the refreshments out of the pantry, a piece of ice crisp and a piece of osmanthus sugar cake.
Princess Mu picked up the jade dew tea placed on the top of the table next to her, and looked intently at Mrs. Pingninghou and the second wife of the Pingjia family in front of her. The eldest son of the Ping family was not born to the current Mrs. Pingninghou, she is just a continuation, and she will not pay much attention to the marriage of this son who is not her own son.
If it weren't for the Pingning Hou Mansion, the old lady of the Ping family felt sorry for her grandson and wanted to do her grandson's marriage as soon as possible, so she rushed to the door in a hurry.
However, the second wife of the Ping family next to Mrs. Pingninghou is an extremely difficult person.
She is the aunt of the eldest son of the Ping family, after the death of the original wife of the Marquis of Pingning, the eldest son of the Ping family has always been taken care of by her, and she treats the eldest prince of the Ping family as her own, and treats him as her own son.
When she heard that Lord Mu Xiaojun fled from Mu Wangfu, she was worried that the marriage with Mu Wangfu would change, so she came to the door every once in a while to harass her, but this time she brought Mrs. Pingning Hou over.
"Princess Niangniang, did the little county lord really go to his grandfather's house? Why did I get the news that I heard that the little county lord fled the palace and went to Chengjiang?"
The second wife of the Hei family picked up the tea cup on the top of the top of the house, lifted the tea lid, and gently hit the tea bowl with the tea lid, making a crisp sound.
Princess Mu was not surprised, after all, the little princess fled the palace, and the maids and mothers-in-law who were waiting in the palace knew that she could ask a random mother-in-law and ask.
And the second wife of the Ping family, there are so many shadows in the palace, it is not surprising that she knows about the escape of the county lord.
Mu Wangfu turned his head and gave a look to Mother Qin who was standing behind her, and Mother Qin quickly understood what Princess Mu meant, bowed her head slightly, and said to the second wife of the Ping family.
"Where did the second wife of the Ping family get the news that my lord of the county has fled? The ancestor of the Cai family is seriously ill, and the county lord of my family, as his granddaughter, returns to serve the decoction in front of the ancestor, is it not possible? And Luoping is not far from Chengjiang, it will be a journey in three or two days, and it is not uncommon for my county lord to go to Chengjiang. β
Mother Qin said neither humble nor arrogant, reasonable and well-founded, the second wife of the Ping family heard this, and she didn't know what to say for a long time.
After settling down, the second wife of the Ping family looked at Princess Mu coldly and said straightforwardly.
"The princess Niangniang should stop deceiving herself, who doesn't know that the princess Niangniang is a girl from the Cai family in Luoping, who has been fostered in the name of the ancestor of the long house, and most of the girls and wives of the Cai family don't get along. is the ancestor of the Cai family, and he also loves other girls, and he ignores the princess. β
The second wife of the Ping family has always been fast-talking, but she was angry that Princess Mu shouted that her mother-in-law made up nonsense to trick her, and now she is thinking about being angry with Princess Mu.
Seeing that the anger on Princess Mu's face was even stronger, Mrs. Pingninghou hurriedly pulled the corner of the second wife of the Ping family beside her, and reminded her softly.
"Auntie and grandmother, let's say a few words! After all, they are the palace, and they can talk to His Majesty, so we can't get along with her for this little thing. β
Mrs. Pingninghou's words were so light that they were almost inaudible, but they were impartial and fell into the ears of Princess Mu.
Princess Mu knew that these noble families looked down on a princess like her the most.
Princess Mu is a girl from the Cai family's partial house, and she lived a fatherless and motherless life in her early years, if it weren't for her grandmother and grandfather who took pity on her and took her to her knees to raise her, where would she have today's beautiful days?
Because she is a girl raised in a long house, when the people from Mu Wangfu came to look at her, they fell in love with her at a glance, so that she could fly on the branches and become a phoenix, and became the envy of many women.
On the surface, the princess shouted one by one, and behind her back, maybe she was arranging something again? Fortunately, Mu Wangye felt sorry for her, and after setting a rule in the mansion and not allowing others to slander her background, it was much better.
The second wife of the Ping family did not listen to the persuasion of Mrs. Pingninghou, and took back the corner of her clothes from her, and said coldly.
"Sister-in-law, no matter what the eldest brother says, he is a child raised under your knees, although it is not as good as your biological second brother, but his marriage, you should always have a snack! Now that the fiancΓ©e has run away, the Hou Mansion has handed out the wedding card again, and if the bride does not appear at the wedding scene, you will go to the ancestral hall and kneel! β
Listening to the words of the second wife of the Ping family, Mrs. Pingninghou's heart trembled. She is just a continuation, and she is not her own son, but now she is doing her duty.
What else do they want her to do?
This sister-in-law of hers always likes to use old ladies and old ladies to press her? is in charge of the affairs of the house, the old lady and the old lady protect her, and the Hou Ye is inconvenient to say anything, even the marriage of his own son, it is not his turn to be the master, and she needs to be asked to be a matchmaker.
What does this look like? So what should she, Mrs. Pingninghou, be?
Mrs. Pingninghou let go of the hand that was holding the second wife of the Ping family tightly, turned around, and replied to Princess Mu in front of her.
"Princess Niangniang, we also know your difficulties, after all, this matter is related to the lifelong events of the two children, if the county lord does not come back, then we will not be able to hold the face of the Pingning Hou Mansion, and the face of the Mu Wangfu will not be good-looking, right?"
Princess Mu naturally knew what Mrs. Pingning Hou said, if it was the wedding day, everyone only saw the eldest son of the Ping family, but not the county lord, although the Pingning Hou Mansion lost face and gave people jokes, Mu Wangfu's face was not good-looking.
At that time, if someone with a heart hands this matter to the capital and presents it in front of His Majesty, it will be a major event that angers Shengyan.
"Mrs. Hou is serious, Mrs. just rest assured, on the day of the wedding, we will definitely send the county lord to the Hou Mansion in its entirety. will not let the Hou Mansion lose face in front of many relatives. With that, the maid who was waiting in the kitchen pushed the door in.
walked to Qin's mother's side, whispered a few words, and quickly walked out of the house.
After Mother Qin repeated what the maid had told her before to Princess Mu, Princess Mu gradually had a smile on her face.
"Mrs. Hou, the second wife of the Ping family, the next person in the mansion came to report, saying that they made some snacks today, all of them are exquisite Suzhou snacks, I wonder if the two of you can enjoy the light, stay and use some snacks before leaving?"
Hearing what Princess Mu said, Mrs. Pingninghou glanced at the second wife of the Ping family beside her, the two glanced at each other, each made up their minds, and stood up from the wooden chair with the maid who was waiting beside her.
The second wife of the Ping family said first: "Princess Niangniang, we are here to talk a few words with the princess Niangniang, the family is complicated, and we are very busy for the marriage of several brothers. We won't stay for this snack to eat. β
Hearing what the second wife of the Ping family said, Mrs. Pingninghou immediately echoed.
"The kindness of the princess, we appreciate it. Now that the house is busy with the marriage of the eldest brother and the second brother, there is really no extra time to accompany the princess and her mother with snacks. If the princess doesn't dislike it, after the little princess marries, the princess can get together in the mansion and taste the cooking skills of the chef in the Hou Mansion?"
After that, Princess Mu called Mother Qin to personally send Mrs. Pingninghou and the second wife of the Pingjia family out of the house.
