Chapter 144: Stealing Chickens Doesn't Make Rice

Chen returned to the Guogong Mansion, sat on the couch and didn't even accept the tea soup brought by Liu's mother, his face was ugly. She didn't expect the Lu family to be so unreasonable, and she didn't even sell her own face, so she refused like that, completely ignoring the current situation of the Yingchuan Palace.

Mother Liu knew that she was angry, and said softly: "Madam, if there is anything to think about in the long run." ”

Chen laughed angrily: "I can't imagine that such a despicable fox is still protected by so many people, Princess Yingchuan is willing to give up her friendship with the Weiguo Mansion to stop this family business, and she really taught me to underestimate her." ”

Mother Liu sighed secretly, knowing that the Chen family would definitely refuse to give up like this, so she had to say: "I'm afraid that the Guo family's Erlang case will not be done, do you want someone to reply to the third lady of Zheng Guogong's Mansion and ask her to bring a message to Guo's mansion?" ”

Chen said coldly: "No need, it may not be possible if this thing is not successful, how can Princess Yingchuan weigh it again." ”

She naturally refuses to do this, if Xiao Rongyue doesn't marry for a day, her eldest husband will be worried about it for a day, if it is dragged until the eldest lang comes back, it will really cause chaos.

She made up her mind, she will go to Yingchuan Wangfu tomorrow to talk to the Lu family about Xiao Rongyue's identity, as a merchant girl and remarry, is there a better choice than the Guo family? There is also the Yingchuan Palace, so I don't want to make friends with these important ministers and nobles in the DPRK at all?

A mere merchant girl, the friendship with the Weiguo Mansion, which is more important, the Lu family will weigh it clearly sooner or later.

It's a pity that early the next morning, before she could go out, she was blocked in the house.

It was her sister-in-law, Mrs. Lin Shi, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, who entered the door of the Weiguo Mansion, and asked Liu's mother who greeted her through gritted teeth: "What about your wife?" Let her come to me! ”

It looked like a bad comer, full of anger, Mother Liu chuckled in her heart, and laughed all over the place: "Uncle, please sit in the flower hall, and the slave will go and invite Mrs. to come over." ”

Lin sneered: "What, she still wants to avoid me?" I also know that my heart is empty! ”

This is not simple, and Liu's mother didn't dare to delay at all, and while personally inviting Lin to sit down and serve tea, she urged the little maid to invite Chen quickly.

Chen was puzzled, hurried over, saw the angry Lin, and said tentatively: "Why did my sister-in-law come over early in the morning like this, what happened?" ”

"What's wrong?" Lin sneered, his eyes were full of knives, "You trampled Xin Niang to death, and now you are still here to ask me what happened!" ”

Chen was completely confused: "Xin Niang, what's wrong with Xin Niang?" ”

Looking at her appearance, Lin decided that she was pretending to be confused, and she couldn't wait to go up and tear her pretended face, so she turned her head angrily and didn't want to say a word to her!

It was the housekeeper's mother who came behind her and said in a low voice: "Someone spread the word yesterday, saying that the Duchess of Guo went to Zheng Guogong's mansion for a banquet a few days ago, and fell in love with Erlangjun of Guo's mansion, and asked people to go to Guo's mansion to help say goodbye, and they wanted to tell him about the third lady." ”

Where is this? Chen was surprised: "How can there be such a thing, I have never had such a heart." ”

Lin turned his head at this time and snorted coldly: "Don't admit it yet!" You entrusted the line that the Feng family of the Zhengguo Mansion gave you, and in order to talk about this family matter, even Mrs. Huang, the secretary of the ministry, walked around, but it really bothered you! ”

Chen came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly said: "No, that's not for Xinniang!" ”

"Who is that for? You don't have a daughter in your house, I just told you a few days ago, I will go to Taiyuan Mansion with your eldest brother in the next year, let you help pay attention to it in Chang'an, and pick a good marriage for Xinniang, you are dedicated, and you have chosen such a marriage! ”

The Lin family was so angry that he gasped, and his eyes were quenched with poison in his eyes: "It's really bothering you, now all Chang'an City knows that your aunt has chosen a good marriage for Xinniang!" ”

Chen Shi was really speechless, so he had to smile bitterly and shake his head: "Sister-in-law, you really misunderstood, I'm not a substitute for Xinniang, but a substitute for ......."

She couldn't say that Xiao Rongyue came, she went to Yingchuan Wangfu the day before to say that she was rejected, but she swore that Mrs. Guo took a fancy to ask her to say that she wanted to say goodbye, if Princess Yingchuan knew that she took the initiative to provoke this family matter, then it would be a big trouble, and even Princess Yingchuan would be offended.

Lin Shi saw her stammering, and he was even more angry: "Who did you say it for?" Now everyone outside has spread that you are going to say goodbye to the lady of your family, but you can tell me that in addition to Xin Niang, who still asks you to see each other! ”

She was angry and bitter for a while, and tears came up: "You usually say that you treat Xinniang like your own daughter, but at this time, you picked such a family affair for her, don't you obviously want to humiliate her, do you want to kill her?" ”

The maidservant hurriedly handed the handkerchief up, and she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Even if I disagree with your eldest brother, but now it has spread all over Chang'an, what kind of heart do you have!" ”

Chen only felt a roar in his ears, held on to a few points, and then said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, first explain to me, what's going on?" What's going on outside? ”

Lin covered his face: "You still have the face to ask, what you said, you want to pick a family affair for your own lady, and you chose Guo Erlang!" ”

At this time, the Chen family finally understood that this was deliberately arranged by someone! I know it so clearly! But she can't say anything, she can't say it and can't explain it clearly!

She could only take a deep breath and said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, you believe me, I really didn't want to say this family matter for Xinniang, how could I let Xinniang be wronged and marry into that family, how could I choose a good family business for her, this must be a misunderstanding......"

"Misunderstanding?" Lin raised his voice, "Could it be that Second Lady Huang also misunderstood?" Feng is also misunderstood? You don't look down on Zheng Guogong's Mansion the most on weekdays, but you went to the banquet of Zhengguo's Mansion for no reason, and you were with that group of people who couldn't be on the stage! ”

She was speechless and could only mutter: "Someone must have done this on purpose, I really didn't ...... Sister-in-law, you take care of me the most on weekdays, and I also love my mother the most, so I won't ......"

Lin Shi was already impatient to listen to her words again, got up and brushed his sleeves angrily: "It's mine, no, I actually dragged you to Xinniang's attention, and in the end I almost hurt Xinniang, you don't have to come back in the future, you don't have to say anything unpleasant, and we can't afford to offend!" ”

Chen chased a few steps, but finally stopped weakly and looked at Lin who had walked away.

However, it's not over, the Lin family only went back for half a day, and even the Chen family's second and third rooms didn't dare to enter the door of the Weiguo Mansion again, after all, they also had ladies, and they were afraid that the Chen family would harm them.
