Chapter 186: Confrontation
But when Chen came to talk to Cheng Yu about the banquet at home for a few days, he saw a silent back sitting by the window, and after listening to what she said, he was reminded of the marriage of the Huainan Hou Mansion openly and secretly, and when he wanted to choose a suitable family affair for him, Cheng Yu still didn't say a word.
Chen suddenly became anxious and asked him fiercely, "What do you want?" Now that your grandfather knows, is it possible that you still want to be confused? ”
Cheng Yu hung his head in pain: "Auntie, I don't know what I'm going to do, I, I don't want to get married, and I don't want to ...... I don't know what to do! ”
Chen looked at his appearance, but he settled down, and said coldly: "Marriage is the order of parents, there is no one who makes up his mind randomly, this time I told your grandfather, I will definitely choose a suitable marriage for you, if you still have a grandmother in your eyes, don't think nonsense!" ”
After that, he left Cheng Yu and left.
Mother Liu couldn't bear it, so she stepped forward and persuaded softly: "The prince and the lady love the two Langjun the most, how can they harm you." ”
Cheng Yu smiled bitterly, but he couldn't say a word.
Chen didn't pay attention to Cheng Yu anymore, just ordered people to keep an eye on him, and he spent all his thoughts on inviting the ladies of those mansions to come over, there are few suitable ones in the Xungui Mansion now, and the ladies of ordinary official eunuchs don't know how to upbring, and they have to take into account the situation in the Taoist Dynasty, and only pick three or two families to pick and choose.
Mother Liu was still frowning when she came back and saw her, and sighed softly and persuaded: "Da Langjun is afraid that he hasn't wanted to turn around for a while, will he be in a hurry to pick a family matter so soon." ”
Chen Shi said coldly: "He is a ghost, and he can't turn back if I talk badly, so I don't have to pay attention to what he thinks, and he doesn't dare to disobey our intentions." ”
"After a while, the list will be opened, and I can't say that other families have picked the Jinshi who have won the list, so we can't delay it any longer."
She instructed Liu's mother: "Keep an eye on him these days, but don't let him go to Guogong in a daze." ”
Although she and Cheng Yan have been in love for many years, Cheng Yan has no concubines around her, only two rooms, but Cheng Yu and Cheng Zhuo are her lifeblood, if Cheng Yan really dislikes Cheng Yu, then I am afraid that there will be no good life in this Weiguo Mansion.
It's just that what she didn't expect was that Cheng Yu had never been to Shengye Fang again, and only went out to meet friends or go to the Yamen of the Ministry of War every day, but stopped a few times when she passed by in front of the door of Shengye Fang, looked inside in a wistful manner, and left quietly, and never saw Xiao Rongyue.
It's just that he made Congwen to tell Liu's mother that he wanted to give Cheng Mo a post for the banquet in a few days.
"Da Lang Jun and Wu Lang Jun in the house over there have never moved around much, how can I give him the next post," Liu's mother was a little uneasy, "I think it's because of ...... Madame felt that if this matter was not to be stopped, lest something happen, both sides would be relatives after all. ”
Chen thinks it's good to let Cheng Yu see Cheng Mo, so that he can understand more clearly that Xiao Rongyue is going to get married, so he can completely give up, not to mention that they are all children of the Langya Cheng family, and they will always have to move around in the future, and it is difficult to avoid it for the rest of their lives.
She waved her hand: "Let him make another post to the Huainan Hou Mansion, and invite Gorou to come over, but you have to make people look good on that day, don't make jokes." ”
The post was sent to Cheng Mo, he took it and looked at it for a long time without speaking, Fugui was a little undecided, and said in a low voice: "Lang Jun doesn't want to go over, or will he go back?" ”
Cheng Mo raised his eyebrows and put down the post: "The Weiguo Mansion is a clan after all, although there is little movement on weekdays, but the Weiguo Mansion was kind to me back then, since I came to the post to take a look." ”
Back then, Cheng Yan and the old patriarch kept him, this kindness and righteousness Cheng Mo can't forget, but with Cheng Yu, he doesn't have much contact, Cheng Yu is a noble son who has a lot of talent, young and promising, this time it is the first contribution to the west, and he, a famous gentleman in Chang'an City, is really not a person on the same road, but I don't know why this time he specially invited him over.
Probably for Xiao Rongyue.
Cheng Mo couldn't help but think of the woman by the window of the teahouse, whose face was as red as a peach, his heart was soft for a while, but he frowned, if it was really for Xiao Rongyue, then he really had to see Cheng Yu.
On the day of the banquet in the Weiguo Mansion, there were really a lot of guests, not only the soldiers in the army, but also the clans and nobles, the Chen family was very busy, but Cheng Yu sat quietly among the Lang Jun, did not talk much, and when he heard the compliments and praises of others, he only politely thanked him.
When Cheng Mo came, Chang Yun was still behind him, and a few Lang Jun, who had a good life, saw him and hurriedly put down his cup, got up and talked.
He nodded with them, and then said to Chang Yun: "I have something to say to Cheng Dalang, and I will come back to you later." ”
Chang Yun was puzzled: "What do you have to say to him?" Didn't you refuse to walk around with the Patriotic Mansion in the past? Why do you have to talk privately after going to the banquet today? ”
Cheng Mo said lightly: "Inquire about the news of the northwest." And he passed.
Cheng Yu saw that he also left the people on the table, got up and walked outside the hall.
In this way, two people who were obviously not familiar with each other, but they walked out together as if they were quite tacit, and arrived in a quiet hexagonal pavilion in the courtyard.
"You invited me because you have something to say to me, you might as well say it bluntly." Cheng Mo looked at Cheng Yu frowning and didn't speak, but said with a smile.
Only then did Cheng Yu turn his head to stare at him, and said the words that had been buried in his heart for a long time: "You shouldn't be married to her, and you shouldn't involve her in the affairs of the Hou Mansion of Huainan." ”
Just one sentence made Cheng Mo's lazy gaze suddenly sharpen, his thin lips tightened, but his tone was still flat: "This marriage was agreed by Mrs. Xiao herself, if she doesn't allow it, I will never force it." ”
His words also made the anger in Cheng Yu's heart unwillingly surge, and he raised his voice: "No matter what, she shouldn't marry someone like you, she has been wronged by the Du family in the past, does she have to be tortured to see people's faces again?" ”
He stared at Cheng Mo angrily, thinking about what he had heard over the years was how he was wandering, how he looked for flowers and asked willows, if Xiao Rongyue was allowed to marry such a person, wouldn't it be humiliating to her!
Cheng Mo listened to his words, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but he quickly pressed down, and turned to look at the peony flowers that were already budding outside the hexagonal pavilion: "Do you know why she refuses to agree to you?" ”
Cheng Yu was stunned, looked at Cheng Mo who looked calm and calm beside him, and wanted to open his mouth to refute him and persuade him to give up, but he still couldn't hold back the unwillingness in his heart, he also wanted to know why, why Xiao Rong Yuening could choose such a prodigal gentleman and refused to choose him!
