Chapter 254: Twists and Turns in the Marriage

"It's just ordinary, and there is no carved beam caisson or anything, what's the big deal?" Chen Han continued to express her disgust, but the person leaned in front of the window, turned his head to look at the approaching campus, and his eyes were full of curiosity.

Li Xi shook his mouth and smiled: "My cousin is hard-mouthed, it is clear that you told me last time that this girls' school is very fun." ”

"! I've never said that! Chen Han denied it sharply, and at the same time, he gave Li Xi a dead look, and poked her waist with his fingers.

Li Xisu couldn't help but itch, her body softened for a while, she giggled, and couldn't stop begging for mercy: "Good sister, dear sister, don't make trouble, I'll be annoyed if I make trouble again." ”

Seeing that the two of them were joking and having a very close relationship, Chen Ying didn't think it was surprising, turned her head to look at Chen Xiang, and asked, "Why did the second sister come over today?" Although it's a break from school, I heard that you still have a lot of homework. ”

"Homework is just a trifle." Chen Xiang's voice was gentle, his eyes stayed on the noisy Chen Han, and his expression was gentle: "My fourth sister and I both feel that what the third sister is doing now is a big deal, so why do you have to do something for your own sisters." Besides, my grandmother also said in the letter......"

At this point, Chen Xiangfei felt that something was wrong, and suddenly stopped his voice, and his face turned red with an expression of saying the wrong thing.

Chen Ying's heart moved slightly, but the afterglow of his eyes was a glimpse, and Chen Han on the side had changed his face.

"Third sister, I...... I ......" Chen Xiang said hesitantly, as if he wanted to round the words, but his eyes involuntarily looked at Chen Han, and there was a hint of asking for help in his eyes.

Chen Han had an expression of hatred that iron could not become steel, and stared at her straight for a long time, before he sat down dejectedly, shook his head and sighed: "Let's go, let's go, let's go, this car is stupid, and I'm the only one who understands." And I gave birth to three heads and six arms, and I could not control them much. ”

Li Xi didn't hear what he said at all, he laughed so coquettishly, Chen Han became more and more stunned when he saw it, and he hated to poke her waist a few more times.

Sighing, Chen Han finally sat up straight, looking like a broken jar, and said, "Third sister, don't be busy blaming people, we are also acting according to the will of our elders." Grandmother said that the matter of Quancheng Girls' School is now spread all over the capital, and His Majesty even praised his grandfather in person. My grandmother wrote a letter asking us to help the third sister more, and we are all a family in the end. ”

Chen Ying let out an "oh", and her face was as usual.

That makes sense.

No wonder Chen Han is so positive, it turns out that this is what Mrs. Xu meant.

After piercing this layer of window paper, Chen Ying felt that his heart had fallen to the bottom, and even the smile on Chen Han's face, which seemed gentler than usual, was not as terrifying as Fang Cai.

"The third sister is busy with those big things, so we didn't say anything about it, it's not a big deal...... Chen Xiang turned around with a red face, but he didn't have the courage to finish speaking, and his head was already lowered first.

Chen Ying smiled lightly and said, "I'm very happy that you can help me, and I'm even happier that my grandmother can think about the girls' school like this." ”

After all, it is beneficial to the girls' school, even if it is utilitarian, but it is still positive, and she welcomes it.

The carriage soon arrived at the ground, and after everyone got off the car, Li Xi stretched his neck and looked around, his face was full of freshness and fun, and soon pointed to the large bluestone used for the plaque, and asked Chen Ying: "Cousin, why didn't this school hang a plaque, just such a stone?" ”

The bluestone is written with the words "Quancheng Girls' School is a shelter for women and children", and the upright large characters are strong, which makes up for the regret of the lack of a plaque.

Chen Ying smiled and said: "I want to make a sense of age, and I like the simplicity of this bluestone." Over the years, the stone has been weathered by the wind and rain, covered with moss, but the handwriting is still there, and everyone who comes here will know that this is a school with a long history. ”

"Yo, the third sister is not very ambitious, and she still wants to be famous for eternity." Chen Han immediately answered, his tone was cold, full of mockery.

Chen Ying had long been immune to this, and if she didn't hear it, Li Xi said very seriously: "Mother said that if my cousin's matter can go on for a long time, I can't say that I can really leave a name in history." ”

Saying this, she turned to Chen Ying again and said with a slight explanation: "Mother originally wanted to come, but now she is busy with things and has no leisure." ”

This was a very common sentence, but when the Chen Xiang sisters heard it, they looked at each other with different expressions.

Then, Chen Han stepped forward and grabbed Li Xi, pointed ahead with a smile and said, "Ah, you see there is a bamboo forest there, let's go in for a while, let's enjoy the scenery." As he spoke, he pulled her aside, and the two of them chattered and didn't know what to talk about, and Li Xi laughed very happily.

Chen Xiang looked at the cousin of the Li family with a sympathetic expression, and sighed: "Alas, why did such a good girl as my cousin get involved in such a thing?" ”

Chen Ying sighed "hmm" and did not say anything.

The rumors of Ghost Crying Ridge have always only been circulating in the aristocratic circle, but they have not spread to the market, and Rao is like this, and the impact of this matter on the Li family is also huge, and the first thing is Li Xi's marriage.

Li Xi is only half a year younger than Chen Ying, and now he is fourteen, and one year old is fifteen, so he should say goodbye. And Li Heng has a classmate surnamed Zheng, whose hometown is in Jinan Mansion, and now this person is in charge of the temple in Honglu Temple in Beijing, and he is an idle official.

Although he is not a wealthy and noble person, the eldest son of Zheng Sicheng is a manufacturable material, named Zheng Jiru, who is nineteen years old this year and has not yet married.

The year before last, this Zheng Jiru went out to study, and stayed in Songjiang Mansion for several months, Li Heng quite instructed him in his homework, and he was still quite satisfied with his character, plus his life was rich and handsome, Ni also liked it, Zheng Jiru and Li Xi were the same age, and the two families were also world friends, so they had the intention of discussing relatives.

Subsequently, Li Heng was transferred to the prefect of Jinan, which is the ancestral home of the Zheng family.

During the winter solstice last year, Mrs. Zheng personally came to the door to deliver a gift and met Li Xi in person, and seemed to be very satisfied with this likable little girl.

But who would have thought, after this year, January will be enough, these February have passed, but Mrs. Zheng has not moved at all, and Ni's is not easy to urge, but she has not slept for many days.

And it wasn't until some time ago that she finally learned from the mouth of others that Mrs. Zheng was now busy showing Zheng Jiru Xiang family affairs, and she actually left the Li family aside.
