Chapter 171: Dead Heart
Mao diligently brought gifts to the Yingchuan Palace, saluted Lu with a smile on his face, and sat on the couch and said all kinds of nice things.
“…… Although Gorou is stubborn, but his temperament is straightforward and down-to-earth, you also know the family background, not boasting, and he can be counted in Chang'an, although he is a nephew, but the prince and I in the house treat him like a parent, everything is planned for him, if the lady marries into the door, she will never be wronged. ”
Mao's face was full of sincerity, and he spoke with a heartfelt and heartfelt appearance.
Lu sat on the upper seat and sighed in his heart, if it weren't for Xiao Rongyue nodded, she would not have agreed to this marriage anyway, what is stubborn, then Cheng Wulang is clearly a gentleman, and what kind of down-to-earth words can Mao Shi say, it will really fool people.
However, Xiao Rongyue mentioned to her that Cheng Wulang's plan made the Lu family surprised and half-convinced, but after all, this marriage is for Xiao Rongyue to be willing, at most what will be in the future, and if she helps Xiao Rongyue come forward, she can't teach her to be sad.
She smiled at the Mao family and said, "It's hard to be Mrs. Huainanhou, and she came to the door to propose marriage in person." ”
Mao hurriedly said: "It's really that the prince and I are very satisfied with this family business, and I feel that Xiao Niangzi is virtuous and generous, and she is also a beautiful and wise person, and she is really suitable for Wulang, so I don't care about any face, and I came to ask the princess to agree to this family business." ”
Xiao Rongyue, who was sitting behind the screen and listening, couldn't help but laugh out loud, this Huainan Hou lady can really open her eyes and talk nonsense, she rarely interacts with the Huainan Hou Mansion on weekdays, and now this identity can't have anything to do with the virtuous and generous show of wisdom, it seems that she has put a lot of effort into achieving this marriage.
Thinking of this, Xiao Rongyue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, it seems that the Huainan Hou Mansion is really not simple, at least not as harmonious as it looks from the outside, otherwise the Mao family would not come to the door to ask for marriage.
The Lu family was also extremely surprised, if the Chen family came to the door to propose marriage before, it was because of selfishness, then what was the purpose of the Huainan Hou lady who said that she treated Cheng Wulang as a parent?
She frowned, paused before saying: "This marriage is indeed good, but the prince of the house has only set a marriage, and he will only get married in mid-June next year, if Cheng Wulang gets married, when will the marriage date be set?" ”
When Mao heard this, his heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly replied: "Mu Lang's marriage was edicted by the palace, and the Ministry of Rites picked it in June, Wulang's marriage can be done first, but it will never be sloppy, there are a lot of three books and six ceremonies, and the dowry is also more general than marrying a bride in other mansions, as long as the princess agrees, I will go back and let people prepare." ”
Lu Shi heard that something was wrong, and she couldn't help but glance back at the peony flower screen, and Xiao Rongyue was sitting behind it.
It's just that there was no sound behind the screen, as if she had no objection to Mao's words, so she had to turn around and say to Mao: "Since that's the case, then please invite the Iceman from the house." ”
The smile on Mao's face couldn't be stopped, and he hurriedly called Mrs. Zhou, who was following behind: "I have already followed, and I am looking forward to the princess accepting this marriage." ”
By the time Mrs. Zhou said auspicious words and held Geng Ti, Lu's heart was already becoming more and more uneasy, and she had a few words with Mao's family, and let them go out, before she hurriedly turned the screen and said to Xiao Rongyue: "I always feel that it is not easy in the Huainan Hou Mansion, otherwise how can she pay attention to this family affair like this, and she is anxious to settle down." ”
Xiao Rongyue also guessed, but she had already prepared, Cheng Mo acted mysteriously, and the means were good, presumably because of the complicated situation, it was difficult to ensure that there would be any entanglements and troubles in the Huainan Hou Mansion, since she chose to agree to this marriage, she naturally would not escape, and the soldiers would block the water and cover the earth, there would always be a way.
She smiled and comforted the Lu family: "It's okay, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and there are some things that don't go well in any family, so don't worry too much." ”
Lu Shi looked at her and sighed softly: "No matter what, if there is anything difficult in the future, you must tell me, and the two of us can always come up with a way." ”
The news of the Huainan Hou Mansion setting up a family affair quickly reached Chen's ears, and she was overjoyed and took Liu's mother to Cheng Yu's courtyard in a hurry.
"Now that Mrs. Xiao has decided on a family affair, Mrs. Huainan Hou personally went to Yingchuan Wangfu today to propose marriage, and Cheng Wulang will marry her in the next year." Chen whispered to persuade his son, who lowered his head and was silent, "Why are you so troubled, where is she counting on you, she has already had dealings with others." ”
Cheng Yu's eyes were red, but his face was white and bloodless, and he raised his head: "A-Niang, she never promised me, it was my own wishful thinking." ”
Chen's heart ached so much, at this point, the stupid son was still worried about Xiao Rongyue's reputation, and it was all on herself, she gritted her teeth and said: "Then you should be dead, she can't marry into the Weiguo Mansion, and the Huainan Hou Mansion comes to ask for marriage, the ladies in the ordinary mansion don't have such skills, she is a good means, and she makes you so confused for her!" ”
Cheng Yu closed his eyes, listened to Chen's reprimand without saying a word, and slowly opened his eyes for a long time: "It's all mine, it's not it, it makes A-Niang worry and sad for a long time." ”
"Tomorrow is the New Year, I will accompany A-Niang and Erlang to have a good New Year." His pale face slowly showed a little smile, "Erlang is afraid that he will make trouble again to see the exorcist, so he has to ask someone to follow him, otherwise he will be messing around again." ”
knew that he was deliberately changing the topic, but seeing that he no longer mentioned Xiao Rongyue and no longer asked about the marriage of the Huainan Marquis Mansion, the stone in Chen's heart finally fell, and he couldn't help but be happy, and said repeatedly: "No, he only listens to you, you take him with you to be lively." ”
Looking at Chen's smile, the pain in Cheng Yu's eyes slowly covered up, and he said softly: "A-Niang is relieved, I am watching him." ”
Chen breathed a long sigh of relief, this farce is finally over, she can rest assured, but she still has a plan, when Cheng Yan comes back, she still has to quickly set a marriage for Cheng Yu, so as not to have more accidents in the long night.
She said a few more words to Cheng Yu, and then took Liu's mother back to the main courtyard to arrange a banquet in the New Year.
After she left, Cheng Yu sat alone in the room, quietly without saying a word, and he didn't even notice that Congwen came in to deliver tea and soup, as if he was thinking about something.
Congwen looked at it but felt uneasy, although Lang Jun would have something on his mind in the past, most of them were for the errands of the military department, and he had never lost his soul like this, and he had never seen this appearance.
Cheng Yu finally spoke: "Let Congwu pack his luggage, and we will go back to Anxi after the first day." ”
