Chapter 395: Muddy Waters

When the county lord of Huilan heard this, his face was red and white, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I won't marry!" ”

The princess of the county was still thinking about what this matchmaker was going to do, but when she heard Whelan say this, she frowned: "Although I don't agree with your father's intention to let you marry the Wang family, after all, you have some holidays with the young lady of the Wang family, and even if you marry, you won't be able to please you." But you're not too young, and when I talked to your grandmother about Miss Fang's family affairs today, she asked you. I've been keeping an eye on you lately, and your affairs will have to be settled by the end of this year at the latest. ”

As soon as Whelan heard the princess of the county mention this issue, she exploded: "I said, don't marry!" Don't marry! Last time you stuffed me to the son of the general of Zhenbei, and he turned out to be a short-lived man, and he made me bear the reputation of Kefu in a good way! What kind of crooked melon and cracked jujube do you want to find me this time? ”

The princess persuaded in a good voice: "The last time it didn't count, it hasn't been set yet." This time, my mother will personally pick it for you, and it will definitely not go wrong. You are the lord of the county, who dares to say that you are Kefu? Be careful, I sue the Queen Mother so that they can't eat and walk around! ”

Huilan didn't buy it when she heard this, and sneered: "I'm just a county lord, what's the matter?" Hui'an is a county lord, and some people dare to say that she is Kefu! So far, no one dares to go to the prince's palace to propose marriage. ”

The princess of the county was speechless, thought about it and persuaded again: "Hui'an is different, she ...... Her temperament...... How many people dare to marry her back? You're naturally different. ”

Whelan oil and salt do not enter: "What's the difference!" I just don't get married! ”

The princess of the county thought that her daughter was better than the princess of Hui'an, but their mother and daughter talked about this kind of thing openly in broad daylight, and they shouted and yelled, for fear that people would not hear it, so they didn't feel blushing at all. Therefore, when it comes to tutoring, words are not as good as deeds.

The princess was also a little annoyed: "Don't be too willful, you don't know which one you don't want to marry?" Then Su Minzhi has already made a marriage with Wang Zheng, and the wedding date is in June, so you should have died of this heart earlier. ”

The county lord of Whelan was stunned and stopped talking. She bit her lip and stared at the tea bowl on the table, her eyes quickly turning red.

The princess was also a little distressed when she saw her daughter like this, but she thought that she couldn't let her anymore, otherwise she would really become an old girl. Come to think of it. The princess of the county didn't persuade her, got up and said, "Think about it yourself." You also know your father, and if I hadn't chosen a good one for you earlier, according to his words, it would have been ......."

When the princess said this, she didn't say anything more.

According to the county king's impatience for success, it is very likely that the county lord of Whelan will be exchanged for benefits. It's not like he hasn't done this kind of thing. As for the man the daughter married, it is not in the scope of this man's consideration at all. In comparison, the princess of the county is really a good mother.

However, the princess of the county poured out her heart and lungs for her daughter, and risked being blamed by the king of Zhuang for Huilan, but her precious daughter did not understand her hard work.

As soon as the princess stepped out of the door, there was a crisp sound behind her head, and the princess was startled and looked back. I saw a pile of porcelain fragments under the door frame, which was the tea bowl that Whelan had just had.

"Get out! You're all the same, and you don't care about me at all. I don't want to see you! ”

The princess was so angry that she trembled, and pointed to her daughter in the door, unable to speak. In the end, she was stopped by the old woman waiting outside and persuaded her away.

There was another crisp sound of porcelain breaking through the door.

Sanniang asked people to report to Wenjiayuan, and in the evening, Bai Lan also came back from outside to hear the news.

"I heard that a while ago, the fiancΓ© of the eldest lady of the Fang family came to the capital from his hometown and sent her some medicinal herbs, which is strange. This eldest lady Fang took the medicine boiled in Earl Fang's mansion, and she didn't get better after so many years, but she changed the medicinal materials for a while, and her body was able to recover. Someone in the Earl's Court privately spread that the old lady couldn't see Fang Jingyi bouncing under her nose. still occupies the position of his granddaughter, and he is afraid that he will be suspected of killing her, so he thought of a way to keep her sick. This time the illness was cured, and I don't know if it was the reason why the medicinal materials were replaced, or the Fang family was afraid that Fang Jingyi's in-laws would be suspicious, so they stopped for the time being. ”

Sanniang leaned lazily on the couch. Listen to Bai Lan talk about being careful when you inquire. Hearing this, she asked lightly, "Where did you hear this news from?" The inner courtyard of the Fang family? ”

Bai Lan shook her head: "Because Fang Jingyi showed up at the birthday banquet of the Duchess of Zhenguo yesterday, everyone was very curious about this matter, so they went around to investigate. When the slaves and maids went outside to investigate, the news was heard with little effort, because the slaves of these big families in Beijing were also related to their relatives, so it came out. ”

Sanniang thought for a while, nodded and said, "Then what else did you hear?" ”

Bai Lan smiled mysteriously: "Originally, I didn't hear anything except these slaves and maids today, and I was not convinced, so I wanted to sneak into the Fang family's house to investigate." It turned out to be a strange thing for me. ”

Although Sanniang was a little speechless about Bai Lan's tone of "going to other people's homes to explore" and "going outside to see the scenery", she couldn't help but be aroused by Bai Lan's curiosity.

Bai Lan has never been a person who likes to sell guan, presumably it is a good habit to do things under Xuan Shao, and she doesn't need to be urged by Sanniang anymore and said: "The slave maid accidentally bumped into the second miss of the Fang family today and was stopped by a man to complain about her heartfelt feelings. ”

"Are you talking about Fang Jingyan?" Sanniang was surprised.

Bai Lan nodded: "Young lady, guess who the man who complained to the second lady of the Fang family was?" The slave promises you won't guess. Although Bai Lan doesn't like to sell guanzi, she has also learned to be naughty occasionally.

Sanniang really thought about it, and finally raised her eyebrows and said, "Could it be the fiancΓ© of the eldest lady of the Fang family?" ”

Bai Lan looked at Sanniang dumbfounded, and said in shock: "How do you know? "I forgot even the honorific title.

Sanniang saw that she had guessed correctly, and she was speechless for a while. She really just guessed casually, there was only one man in the Fang family's story just now. Besides, in the inner courtyard of the Fang family, how could there be any strange man entered?

Bai Lan said: "It's really the eldest aunt of the Fang family, I heard people call him Li Gongzi." Later, I inquired again and learned that the Li family is the largest family in Longxi, and this uncle is a real son of a high family. It's just that why Li Gongzi I saw today is just an embroidered pillow that likes to drop his bookbag, and his skin is not bad. ”

Sanniang heard Wang Zheng say yesterday that Mrs. Fang Jiatai had carefully selected a family affair for Fang Jingyi before she died. She could probably guess the so-called good fate in the old man's heart. The family background is good, the family is high, the man is good-looking, has no vices, and it is best to be able to read.

With these points, it is natural that the elders are a good match in their hearts. The first two points can ensure that the woman has no worries about food and clothing, and the last two points can ensure that she will grow old smoothly and earn a fortune if she is lucky.

That's all I want, but this picker is also a risky investment, and there are naturally profits and losses.

"What about the second miss of the Fang family?" Sanniang asked.

Bai Lan was a little surprised why her young lady suddenly became so gossipy, but she still replied: "Fang Jingyan was taken aback, and then stomped her feet and ran away, I don't know if she was ashamed or angry, the slave maid only held back a smile and didn't catch up to see." ”

Sanniang smiled: "There is no one with her?" ”

Bai Lan thought for a while, nodded and said, "Follow, but there is only one personal maid." It really looks like he secretly went to meet his lover, and sent everyone around him away. ”

Sanniang leaned on the couch and thought quietly for a while, and said, "I know, you go down and rest." Don't talk about today's affairs, and you don't need to investigate the affairs of the Fang family anymore. ”

"The slave didn't expect that she hadn't found out about it, but she had seen such a scandal." Bai Lan said with a bitter face.

Sanniang shook her head: "You have done a good job, I just want to know about the situation of the Fang family." I just heard what you said, and I guessed a little. We don't have a chance to have a deep friendship with their family in the future, so it's enough to know this. ”

Bai Lan was curious: "Young lady, what did you guess?" ”

Sanniang smiled mysteriously: "I guessed...... The water in the Fang family is very deep. ”

Bai Lan was disappointed: "That's all? ”

Sanniang laughed: "Otherwise, what else?" I'm not a god. With the clues, you can calculate the events of 500 years before and after. ”

Bai Lan also smiled, thought about it, and then frowned again: "But young lady, you just said that we will not have a chance to have a deep friendship with the Fang family in the future, and it is not necessarily the case according to the slave maid. ”

Sanniang was a little strange: "Why do you say that?" "The Fang family is in chaos like that, she won't let Wang Jing go to the troubled waters. It is impossible for the two families to have a family affair.

Bai Lan said: "This time, the young master went to Northern Xinjiang and helped General Zhenbei to make a great contribution, you must also know about it." But there is another person's credit for this. This man was left in Northern Xinjiang many years ago by the young master, when he was just a coolie who was exiled to the local area, the young master saw that he had learned the languages of several Mongolian tribes there in just a few years, and his skills and brains were also extremely flexible, so he took him under his command. In the past few years, the situation in the northern Xinjiang has been passed back by him, and this time the young master was able to successfully find the Zhenbei army, and he also contributed a lot. ”

Sanniang's heart was like lightning when she heard this, and she thought that she already knew who Bai Lan was talking about.

"The current Earl Fang's half-brother, Fang Jingyi's biological father?"

Bai Lan nodded: "It's this person." It's strange to say that he came, I heard that he was originally a headache in Beijing, and he would only cause trouble and make a show all day long. But Ding You, who has now become the Condor Guard, is a well-known man, and no one in the guard is disrespectful, and even the young master respectfully calls him Uncle Ding. ”

Sanniang didn't expect that Fang Jingyi's father would still have contact with Xuan Shao. (To be continued)
