Text Chapter 95: Meeting 1

"I don't know, I don't know who the third lady is talking about?" Mother Wu asked nervously.

"This person's name is Li Zhong, he is exactly twenty-two years old this year, and now, he has opened a small dried fruit shop on West Street," Wei Man said: "Although Li Zhong's eldest brother's family is poorer, if Yuyan really marries, life will be much more difficult than when he was a big girl...... Mother Wu can rest assured, after Swift gets married, I will take her slavery and let her live her own life peacefully outside the house, so that Mother Wu doesn't need to worry about her anymore......"

"Li Zhong?" Mother Wu muttered.

"Zhong'er?" Cheng's mother also read in surprise.

"Yes, it's Brother Li Zhong," Wei Man nodded to Cheng's mother, and said to Wu's mother with a smile: "The Li Zhong I mentioned to my mother is not an outsider, but Cheng's mother's own nephew, I don't know if Wu's mother has no impression yet, Brother Li Zhong also worked in the house for a few years in the early years." ”

Mother Wu frowned, still looking unimpressed.

"That's right, Zhong'er and Swift, oops, I didn't think of it before, what a good marriage this is!" Cheng's mother patted her thigh, immediately held Wu's mother's hands enthusiastically, and eagerly assured: "It's not that I'm boasting, my nephew grew up watching, honest and hard-working, if Swift really follows Zhong'er, Mother Wu, you can put a hundred hearts, I guarantee that my nephew will never let Swift suffer a little grievance......"

Seeing that Cheng's mother's excited face was a little red, Wei Man couldn't help but smile slightly.

When Swift first came to serve by Weiman's side, to be honest, the people who returned to the garden had the greatest prejudice against Swift, and Cheng's mother really found trouble with Swift a few times at the beginning, but it didn't take long for Cheng's mother to "dump" under Swift's "innocence", and her impression of Swift was reversed......

Not long ago, Cheng's mother inadvertently chatted with Wei Man, saying that Swift is such a good girl, I don't know who can marry her with good luck......

"Your nephew, he ......" Mother Wu muttered in her mouth, and she only vaguely remembered that there was such a person as Cheng's mother and nephew in the house, but she couldn't recall Li Zhong's face anyway.

Mother Wu has always been a housekeeper mother with a head and a face in Xiyuan, and when she goes out, she is the object of people competing to curry favor, which makes her have an impression of an unknown little girl who lived in the house in the early years, and it is really a little difficult for her, Cheng's mother can't help but have some urgency on her face.

"Don't hide it from Mother Wu, you said, Swift's girl, I really like it, I know in my heart that Mother Wu has always been like Swift as her own daughter, and this mother is always afraid of wronging her daughter," Mother Cheng took Mother Wu's hand and said heartily: "My nephew's shop on West Street is called Yipin Dried Fruit Shop, it's easy to find, Mother Wu has to be free, just go and take a look......"

"This ......" Mother Wu was a little hesitant on her face, she thought in her heart, that person is not only Cheng's mother's nephew, but also the third lady's personal proposal, then Li Zhong must not be a person who cannot be on the stage, but if she agrees now, then Li Zhong She has not seen it after all, in case it is a bad ......

"Mother Wu doesn't need to rush to give me an answer," Wei Man comforted Mother Wu, who was nervous, and said, "After all, this is a major event related to Swift's life, so it is natural to be cautious...... Anyway, there is no urgency in this matter, at this time, Mother Wu can seriously consider it......"

Yuyu Garden, in the study.

An old man with black hair stood quietly in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking out of the window at the bamboo forest swaying in the spring breeze.

Cheng Yunqing led Wei Man to the door.

Hearing the sound, the old man turned around.

The vicissitudes of life, mixed with love and a little excitement, seemed to converge into a tangible Juanjuan warm current, tightly surrounding Weiman.

Facing Old Lady Cheng's gaze, Wei Man's face couldn't help but be stunned.

The fate between people is really wonderful sometimes.

Before meeting Mrs. Cheng, Wei Man's heart has always been uneasy, and there have always been great reservations about Mrs. Cheng's grandfather, but after seeing the kind old man in front of her, even if Wei Man has memories of her previous life, even if she has never crossed paths with Mrs. Cheng...... The moment their eyes met, Wei Man's heart told her that the old man in front of her was her relative, someone she could rely on......

Inexplicably, Wei Man's eyes were slightly red.

Old lady Cheng couldn't speak for a while.

Cheng Yunqing greeted people with great eyes, and left the space to Old Lady Cheng and Wei Man, the ancestors and grandsons who had never met.

"Grandfather." Wei Man knelt down respectfully, made a big salute to Mrs. Cheng, and couldn't help but choke up in a somewhat choked tone: "Aman to meet his grandfather." ”

"Okay, good ......" Old Lady Cheng's voice was also a little strange, he helped Wei Man up, and said, "Hurry up, hurry up." ”

Take your seats.

Because of the previous emotional fluctuations, the two of them were a little embarrassed on their faces, and they said a few words about the scenes of eating and living, and the atmosphere between them finally eased up.

Old lady Cheng looked at Wei Man carefully, his eyes were very far-reaching, as if he was looking into the distance through Wei Man, and for a moment, he sighed lightly: "You are really similar to your grandmother." ”

Weiman once heard Cheng's mother mention that the relationship between his grandfather and his grandmother was very good, and when his grandmother was alive, his grandfather never had a concubine or aunt by his side, and even after his grandmother died, his grandfather never remarried.

Wei Man couldn't help but touch her face, thinking to herself, since her grandfather said that she looked very similar to her grandmother, then, judging from her grandmother's position in her grandfather's heart, this sentence can be regarded as the greatest compliment to her...... Thinking about it like this, Wei Man felt that her relationship with Old Lady Cheng seemed to be closer.

"Really?" Wei Man said happily: "I have long heard Cheng's mother say that her grandmother was a beautiful woman back then, and Aman is similar to her grandmother...... My grandfather is praising Aman for his good looks, right? ”

Old lady Cheng laughed.

"Hmmm! My Aman is indeed better looking than other little girls! Old lady Cheng stroked her beard and smiled, nodded, and said: "However, this charm is still a little worse, far less than your grandmother's virtuous ...... back then."

"Yes! Be! Be! Wei Man smiled: "In my grandfather's heart, Aman is not as good as my grandmother......"

After the atmosphere was warm, Wei Man found that Mrs. Cheng was actually an old man with a very easy-going personality.

“…… You don't have to worry about marriage," Mrs. Cheng said very casually: "Your father and I have already said something in advance, and your family affairs must be done with my nod, so you don't need to worry about it......"

"Yes......" Wei Man's face was a little shy, poured a cup of new tea, and served it in front of Mrs. Cheng, "Thank you, grandfather." ”

"It's okay, it's okay," Mrs. Cheng took the tea offered by Wei Man with a smile, took a sip, and then seemed to suddenly think of something, raised her eyes, looked at Wei Man with a smile, and said: "Speaking of marriage, I just wanted to ask you, now is the time for the emperor to accept the concubine, do you have any thoughts about the harem?" ”

"Huh!?" Wei Man looked at Mrs. Cheng in a daze, and said, "Harem ......"

"When I entered the palace to meet the emperor yesterday, I happened to hear a few words about the emperor's concubine matter," Mrs. Cheng gently knocked on the teacup, looked at Wei Man, and said with a smile: "Listen to the emperor's meaning, I'm afraid that there will be a palace concubine in the Zhenguo Hou Mansion." ”

Wei Man's heart tightened.

In this way, it can be regarded as really responding to what Wei Feng said, there is a palace concubine in the Zhenguo Houfu.

"How?" Old Lady Cheng looked at Wei Man with some deep eyes, and said, "Look at your complexion, aren't you very happy?" ”

Since the emperor deliberately set aside a position of a concubine for the Zhenguo Houfu, then this must be a reward for the Zhenguo Houfu to guard the northern frontier for generations, and because the current Zhenguo Hou is Wei Bai, then, the person who enters the palace as a concubine is naturally Wei Bai's daughter first, and among Wei Bai's three daughters, Wei Yun's age is too young, although Wei Feng's age is appropriate, it is a concubine, only Wei Man, regardless of the right age, and it is Wei Bai's original concubine......

The corners of Wei Man's mouth couldn't help but pull out a wry smile, thinking that in the eyes of outsiders, the position of this palace concubine would fall on her head nine times out of ten...... No wonder Wei Feng asked her to give in......

Wei Man looked at the old lady Cheng with a calm expression.

"If, I say, I don't want to enter the palace," Wei Man stared at Old Lady Cheng's eyes and asked, "Can my grandfather help me?" ”

"Oh? You don't want to enter the palace? Old lady Cheng's eyes flashed slightly, and there was some suspicion in his eyes when he looked at Wei Man, but more than that, it was complicated that Wei Man couldn't understand, and after a pause, he asked again: "Have you figured it out?" Do you really want to enter the palace as a concubine? ”

"Yes! Oman has thought it all right. Wei Man said with an affirmative expression: "I don't want to enter that harem." ”

"It's not like you're lying like this." Old Lady Cheng took another sip of tea, lowered her head and thought for a moment, then raised her head, looked into Wei Man's eyes, and said, "I heard that you put a lot of thought into it for King Narui to be the crown prince, and even almost lost your life...... Could it be that your grandfather will be wrong, you have worked so hard to do so much, just because you have fallen in love with King Narui, not to be able to enter the middle palace one day? ”

"Huh!? This ......" Wei Man's face turned white, his mind turned, and he secretly thought, yes, Cheng's mother and Xijing are in contact so frequently, and the relationship between Wei Man and Rui Wang in the past was like that, and he almost lost his life...... What happened before, it was impossible for Cheng's mother not to report to Mrs. Cheng.

"I ......" Wei Man hesitated for a long time, but he didn't know how to explain it.
