Chapter 17: Asking for Marriage
At that time, there was no such person as Gu Liniang, so Mrs. Luo didn't take Mrs. Tai's words to heart at all, and even thought that since Mrs. Tai's daughter had long since disappeared, Mrs. Tai's own property would eventually be left to her three granddaughters——— that is to say, Mrs. Luo had long regarded Mrs. Tai's own property as the property of her own daughters.
At present, Gu Liniang, Cheng Biting Jin, is killed halfway through to rob Mrs. Tai's own property, and it is strange that Mrs. Luo does not hate Gu Liniang to the core! It is precisely because of this that Mrs. Luo previously designed to frame Gu Liniang, and wanted to solve Gu Liniang's Cheng bite before Mrs. Tai returned home!
Mother Chen knew that Mrs. Luo was eager to pick Gu Liniang's skin and drink Gu Liniang's blood right now, so she carefully accompanied the smiling face, and at the same time followed Mrs. Luo's mind to sarcastically squeeze Gu Liniang: "Gu Liniang, that village woman, is not just annoying everywhere!" She's such a thing that doesn't know how to lift! I don't look at what kind of identity she is, she dares to stretch her hand so long and take care of the eldest girl's family affairs...... Is this something she can manage?! ”
As soon as Chen's mother was worried about Gu Liniang's family affairs in advance, Mrs. Luo was angry, and immediately raised her foot and kicked the brocade on the ground, and scolded: "At present, it is no fun to marry the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, and it is all to blame on that Gu Liniang!" I've got to give her some color, or she'll think she's going to ride on my head and do something!" ”
Mother Chen has always been Mrs. Luo's dog-headed military advisor, and after seeing her eyes rolling a few times, she immediately stepped forward and said: "Madam, the slave maid has often heard the servants in the house chew the root of her tongue recently, saying that Gu Liniang has become a high-ranking noblewoman, and when the long-tongued woman talked about Gu Liniang, her tone was also very disdainful, presumably they also felt that Gu Liniang was not worthy of being a high-ranking noblewoman!" ”
Mrs. Luo turned the jade bracelet on her wrist a little irritably, raised her eyebrows, and said impatiently: "What do they think of her Gu Liniang as being the aunt and grandmother of the Cen family?" It has to be used if the old lady thinks she's unworthy! ”
"We can try to find some proof to make the old lady feel unworthy, isn't that enough to make her drink a pot?" Mother Chen smiled and leaned into Mrs. Luo's ear and whispered: "You see that everyone is suspicious of Gu Liniang's identity right now, and thinks that she has changed from a market woman to a high-ranking lady like this, which is really incredible, maybe she is really a bold impostor!" ”
Mrs. Luo thought carefully about Chen's mother's words, and immediately slapped a few small ones and said with a little excitement: "That's right! When the old lady recognized her, she asked her if she had the jade pendant she had brought with her when she was lost, but she couldn't take out the jade pendant at that time, and only vaguely said that the jade pendant was lost early! ”
Mother Chen immediately echoed when she heard this: "That's it! Even Yu Pei, an important token of recognizing relatives, is gone, and she still has the face to shout at the old lady? Phew! What a shameless thing! ”
Mrs. Luo muttered a little depressedly after hearing this: "It's not because of her ...... face"
Mother Chen hurriedly said with relief: "Madam, let's ignore Gu Liniang's face first, let's send someone to check the place where Gu Liniang has stayed all these years, maybe we can find out some clues, so that Gu Liniang can be revealed in front of the old lady!" ”
"Let's take a step back, even if we can't find anything useful, then if we find out this Gu Liniang's old background, won't it be easier to deal with her in the future? Could it be that Mrs. really wants to give up the things that originally belonged to the second girl to Gu Liniang, the vulgar village woman? ”
This Mother Chen has always been very jealous that Gu Liniang's "grass chicken" can become a "phoenix", so she is very active about adding blockage to Gu Liniang, but without waiting for Mrs. Luo to speak, she added another fire: "If you want the slave to say, even if we can't find useful information to bring Gu Liniang down, madam, you have to find a way to teach her a lesson!" Otherwise, she is just a newcomer now, and she dares to meddle in the eldest girl's family affairs, and if she doesn't climb on the head of Mrs. for a while, she will act recklessly? ”
Chen's mother's words can be said to be in one sentence, and it said what Mrs. Luo cared about the most, so Mrs. Luo immediately adopted Chen's mother's suggestion, and immediately called Wang Jinshui, who was her companion and now took care of the wedding shop for her, and asked him to quietly check Gu Liniang's background.
This Wang Jinshui is also Mrs. Luo's confidant, and he is very concerned about Mrs. Luo's affairs.
And although Mrs. Luo had ordered Wang Jinshui to investigate Gu Liniang's affairs, she still couldn't sleep after falling asleep at night, and after pondering for a night, she was asked to figure out a way when it was dawn...... With this method, Mrs. Luo couldn't wait to use it to block Gu Zheng's mother and daughter, and let Gu Zheng's mother and daughter see how powerful she was!
When Mrs. Luo met Gu Zheng's mother and daughter in Rongshoutang the next day, her attitude was unprecedentedly enthusiastic, not only changed her attitude of not caring for Gu Liniang in the past, but also pulled Gu Liniang to ask for warmth, and she was also kind and kind to Gu Zheng, and people who didn't know would think that Gu Zheng was her biological daughter!
And Mrs. Luo not only carefully inquired about the daily life and diet of Gu Zheng's mother and daughter, but also asked about the daily trivial matters when they were wandering outside, as well as when Gu Zheng was born, how many catties and taels he weighed when he was born, and whether he was obedient when he was a child...... While Gu Zheng and Gu Liniang were flattered and puzzled, they all felt that Mrs. Luo was very abnormal today.
However, after Mrs. Luo was enthusiastic, she didn't make any more movements, which made Gu Zheng feel more and more puzzled in her heart, and always felt that Mrs. Luo would not be so abnormal for no reason, and Gu Zheng also had a vague sense of foreboding——— this Mrs. Luo didn't make any movements, but it made Gu Zheng worry more than tossing any movements!
And just when Gu Zheng was puzzled by Mrs. Luo's actions, the Shunjun Palace, which had never had much contact with the Cen Mansion, sent someone to vote for a post, saying that the Princess of Shunjun would come to the Cen Mansion to visit in the near future.
When people officially visit the door, they will often first submit a famous post, politely inform the host's family, and only visit the house as scheduled two or three days after sending the famous post.
Therefore, after Mrs. Tai was surprised, she made people take advantage of these two days to prepare for a good life, but she didn't expect that the name card had just been sent over for a day, and the princess of Shunjun actually came to visit in person the next morning, and after seeing Mrs. Tai, she was even more tearful, and even gave Mrs. Tai a big gift......
Although this princess of Shunjun is considered to be the younger generation of Mrs. Tai, her command is higher than that of Mrs. Tai, and Mrs. Tai did not dare to accept her courtesy, so she immediately got up and helped her up, and asked with a puzzled face: "Princess, why is this?" What is the princess who just opens her mouth to command, why should she make such a big salute to the old man? ”
Princess Shunjun didn't really want to salute Mrs. Tai, so as soon as Mrs. Tai helped her, she got up and took the opportunity to say what she meant: "Mrs. Tai, I have a reluctant request——— I want to propose marriage to your girl on behalf of my family Shiro, I hope you can always agree to marry our two families." ”
The princess of Shunjun ran to the door for no reason and said that she wanted to marry the Cen family, which really surprised Mrs. Tai, and was a little flattered——— this Tongzhou is the place where Emperor Taizu made his fortune, and Emperor Taizu was also recruiting troops in his hometown of Tongzhou when he first unveiled the uprising, gathering the world's benevolent and righteous teachers, and later fought all the way from Tongzhou to Yanjing, and only after winning a big victory did he decide on Yanjing.
After Emperor Taizu founded the country, most of the founding fathers who were rewarded were people from Tongzhou and Thornzhou, so the most important thing in these two places was the imperial family and nobles, and the dukes and earls. There are also many of these princess families who are willing to stay in their hometown because of this or that, and families like the Cen family abound, which is not rare and noble.
Therefore, the Shunjun Wangfu would take the initiative to marry the Dingnan Bocen family, which was really much unexpected to Mrs. Tai, because Mrs. Tai thought that the Shunjun Wangfu should have a better marriage partner and should not choose the Cen family......
However, although Mrs. Tai was skeptical, she asked quietly on her face: "I don't know which girl in our house the princess has taken a fancy to?" ”
Since the princess of Shunjun came to the door in person, she had to get things done no matter what, so as soon as she saw Mrs. Tai's question, she immediately gave an answer without hesitation: "Don't hide it from Mrs. Tai, the ...... of the house I like it very much, so I want to marry her for our little four! Don't worry, Mrs. Tai, I will definitely treat her as my own daughter after the girl passes through the door, and I will not let her suffer the slightest grievance! ”
"And although our family Shiro is not a prince and cannot inherit the title of the prince, how can he rely on his grace to find an official position and earn a life for his wife in the future," the princess of the county said and paused, and when she saw that Mrs. Tai had a puzzled look on her face, she simply explained two sentences: "I have mentioned the matter of marriage to Mrs. Luo once before, and Mrs. Luo said that the girls' family affairs have to be nodded by Mrs. Tai, so I took the liberty to ask Mrs. Tai to fulfill it." ”
