Chapter 166: Refusal to marry
Although Gu Zheng was not to be outdone to scare Cen Siniang, she actually didn't want Cen Sanniang's final fate to be too miserable, after all, compared with Cen Siniang and Cen Wuniang, Cen Sanniang was just a little more arrogant, and she didn't do anything bad that made people disdain or disgusted.
So in order to prevent Aunt Zhao's mother and 'daughter' from being bad again, when Gu Zheng went to Rongshoutang to accompany Mrs. Tai for dinner in the evening, she couldn't help but say good things for Cen Sanniang, and quietly asked Mrs. Tai how to deal with this matter: "Grandmother, the third sister's 'nature' is not bad, and she doesn't hide so many curves in her heart like others, I guess someone is afraid that someone deliberately guided the third sister to do it......"
Gu Zheng stopped talking and didn't say much, seeing that although Mrs. Tai had a clear look on her face, but she didn't pick up the conversation, Gu Zheng knew that Mrs. Tai's heart was actually like a mirror...... Since Mrs. Tai guessed that Cen Sanniang would never be able to do such a thing by herself, then she would not really blame Cen Sanniang for not helping her clean up these things.
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng couldn't help but cautiously ask again: "Grandmother, how do you plan to deal with the matter of the third sister?" I guess you were just deliberately saying something to scare your mother, and even if Mrs. Zheng didn't happen to send the post, you would definitely take the initiative to visit her old man's home soon...... I don't know if I'm right? ”
Mrs. Tai knew that Gu Zheng was worried about Cen Sanniang, so she no longer 'made' Xuanxuan, and reached out and tapped the tip of Gu Zheng's nose: "You are clever, like a roundworm in your grandmother's stomach, you guessed everything your grandmother wanted!" Mrs. Tai paused as she spoke, and couldn't help but sigh again: "The third girl is 'sexual' sincere, this matter must be instigated by someone, she will be stupid As soon as Ping Guogong despised her, she half-pushed and half-complied with his wishes......"
"Now, I, as a grandmother, can't just watch her suffer and be wronged, right? I had to talk to Mrs. Zheng with a shy face and a good voice, and said, hurry up and settle the relationship between the three girls and the prince of Pingguo! Only in this way can the three girls suffer less! ”
With Mrs. Tai's words, Gu Zheng's heart that had been hanging was put back in place, and she was secretly relieved for Cen Sanniang, just hoping that after she married into the Pingguo Mansion smoothly this time, she would be able to eat a trench and grow a few more eyes, and stop being easily used.
I never thought that Gu Zheng had just gotten the right words from Mrs. Tai, and what she had said to Cen Siniang the next day had really come true......
However, he said that after Mrs. Zheng boarded the 'door' as scheduled, she only said a few words of greeting to Mrs. Zheng after she sat down, and she didn't even bother to drink the tea served by the maid and went straight to the point: "Old sister, you must already know about the incident that happened in my house a few days ago, right?" ”
Although Mrs. Tai had already made up her mind in her heart and had been mentally prepared for a long time, when Mrs. Zheng really mentioned this matter to her face, she was still so ashamed that she didn't teach her own girl well, and only nodded to indicate that she knew about it.
Mrs. Zheng didn't feel embarrassed at all, and when she saw Mrs. Tai nodding, she continued to ask, "Then old sister, tell me how you plan to deal with this matter?" This matter is related to the reputation of our Zheng and Cen families, we have to discuss it well and come up with a charter to solve the matter as soon as possible! ”
When Mrs. Luo, who was standing aside to serve, heard this, she immediately rushed to Mrs. Tai and replied, "How else can we discuss?" Your grandfather ruined the innocence of my Sanniang, and he had to carry a sedan chair to marry her into the 'door'! Use family affairs to block everyone's mouths, and then make a way to suppress gossip...... That's the only way to do it now! ”
As soon as Mrs. Luo 'interjected', Mrs. Zheng's face immediately sank, and her displeasure was undisguised, making Mrs. Luo angry and angry Mrs. Luo, who didn't understand the rules: "How can the elders talk as one of your juniors 'interjects' to talk?!" Don't shut up and back down yet! ”
As soon as Mrs. Luo was reprimanded by Mrs. Tai, she could only keep her mouth shut unwillingly, but it was related to Cen Sanniang's lifelong happiness, and she was unwilling to retreat, so she only took a small step back and stayed to listen with a dead face.
Mrs. Zheng didn't bother to pay attention to Mrs. Luo when she saw it, and only expressed her intention directly: "Old sister, with all due respect, our Zheng family can't marry the three girls of your family to pass the 'door', and I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate for her to be the Duchess of Pingguo." ”
Mrs. Zheng's merciless refusal made Mrs. Zheng's face suddenly a little unbearable, but she believed in Mrs. Zheng's personality and knew that she would not say such a thing for no reason, so she asked stubbornly: "Old sister, you and I have known each other for many years, since you have talked to this point, then you should always tell me the reason why your Zheng family can't marry our family's third mother, right?" ”
Mrs. Zheng took care of Mrs. Tai's face, so she didn't say it very clearly: "I think the third girl of your family or Mrs. Luo should know this reason, the old sister doesn't have to come to ask me, just ask them to go!" ”
As soon as Mrs. Zheng mentioned Mrs. Luo, Mrs. Luo immediately rushed to her again, and asked in turn with an indignant face, "Mrs. Zheng, what are you talking about?" What's wrong with my Sanniang being the Duchess of Pingguo? I don't think you're going to admit it after ruining our girl's innocence! How can you do that? How can you do this to make our Sanniang live in the future? Didn't you 'force' her to her death?! ”
In the face of Mrs. Luo's series of pretentious and pretentious questions, Mrs. Zheng only said in a flat tone and in one sentence: "On that day, your third mother took the initiative to give our grandfather a hug, doesn't Mrs. Luo know this?" I didn't say anything before, I wanted to save some face for your Cen family, since you insist on 'force', then I can only say it clearly. ”
Although Mrs. Luo didn't expect Mrs. Zheng to find out the matter so clearly, she had already made up her mind that she would not admit it, and Cen Sanniang took the initiative to do it, so she denied it loudly at the moment: "Spraying people with blood!" You said that my Sanniang took the initiative to give her arms to Grandpa Guo, but what evidence or witness do you have? ”
"There are naturally human witnesses, otherwise I wouldn't dare to say such a thing," Mrs. Zheng waved to Hongye who was standing behind her after she finished speaking: "Hongye, tell Mrs. Luo everything you saw that day, lest she keep saying that we wronged Miss Cen San." ”
The red leaves recounted what they saw that day, and Mrs. Luo wanted to refute it immediately after hearing it, but was glared at by Mrs. Tai unhappily, and could only swallow the words that came to her mouth back into her stomach.
After thinking for a while, Mrs. Tai didn't say that what Red Leaves said was a lie, but only reminded Mrs. Zheng euphemistically: "This Red Leaf is the maid of your mansion......"
Mrs. Zheng immediately instructed Hongye: "Go, bring in the people who are waiting outside." ”
Hongye only left for a short while, and soon came back with a maid, Mrs. Luo saw that the maid following her was actually Zhu'er beside Cen Sanniang, and she was immediately shocked, and she couldn't care about shutting up: "Zhu'er, you are not waiting by the third girl's side, what are you doing here?" ”
After Zhu'er respectfully saluted Mrs. Tai and the others, she replied to Mrs. Luo's words unhurriedly: "Back to Mrs. Zheng, Mrs. Zheng asked the slave to come." ”
Zhu'er's words made Mrs. Luo even more puzzled, and she also had a hint of foreboding in her heart: "She asked you to come?" When did you become the maid of the Zheng family? You ......"
"If you 'interject' again, I'll have someone kick you out immediately!" Mrs. Luo was interrupted by Mrs. Tai before she finished speaking, and Mrs. Tai ignored Mrs. Luo after throwing down the ultimatum, and looked at Mrs. Zheng while pointing to Zhu'er and asked, "Old sister, who are you?" ”
Mrs. Zheng said unhurriedly: "On the same day, the three girls of your mansion came to our house for a banquet, and it was this maid who followed the 'serving', for the sake of fairness, I specially brought her for questioning...... Mrs. Zheng said and beckoned Zhu'er to step forward: "You and repeat what you said to me before, let your old lady and lady listen." ”
"Yes," although Zhu'er deserved it on her lips, her palms were so nervous that she was full of sweat, but since things had developed to this point, she had to do what Cen Wuniang told her: "When I went to the Pingguo Mansion for a banquet that day, the slave maid had been following the three girls to serve, and then the three girls said that they wanted to go to the garden for a walk, but they didn't let the slave and maid follow, saying that they wanted to walk around alone and distract themselves......"
