"Originally, it was said that we would get married in the second half of this year, and our house was almost ready, that is, to bring the wedding date forward." Mrs. Li saw Du Mingzhu's expression and knew that she was reluctant, so she changed her tone of voice beyond question.

"Could it be a little too hasty?" The eldest lady wanted to reject Mrs. Li's proposal in one go, but how could the Hubu Shangshu be offended by the Du Mansion?

"Sister Zhu'er's dowry, although the big ones are almost the same, but the wedding dress, shoes and socks are still far behind...... This child is careful, and the work in his hands is inevitably a little slow. ”

"These are the little things!" Mrs. Li waved her hand and said, "If you don't have time to prepare in your house, tell me what is still missing, and I will send it over in the next two days." ”

After that, she took Du Mingzhu's hand again and said sadly: "Sister Zhu, my good daughter-in-law!" I also know that getting married is a lifelong event, but if you have more time, how can I want to make you feel wronged! Don't worry, when you get married, you only need to accompany Ling Er every day, and you don't have to worry about the rest. I will make decisions about everything in the family, so you just have to get married with peace of mind! ”

Mrs. Li's hands were wet and greasy, and Du Mingzhu, who was clenched tightly, wanted to break free, but was grabbed by Mrs. Li. Du Mingzhu looked at her mother desperately, her usually stubborn and arrogant face only looked fragile and helpless at this moment.

"Mother, I'm ......," she sobbed.

The eldest lady was in a hurry at this time, and she was about to faint. If you should do it on the spot, how can you regret it later? Could it be that you really married Du Mingzhu?

However, it was because of how many people she worked so hard to get married, how many times the mother and daughter behaved in front of Mrs. Li, and how many good things they said in exchange. If my uncle is sick, my family will regret the marriage, isn't this a slap in the face? In the future, the daughter will have to be said to be unkind, how can she marry in a good family?

In the end, it was Mrs. Du who showed her face and said in a rather direct tone: "Mrs. in-laws, you just say that Chongxi is happy, so if Sister Zhu gets married, she is not happy, she is so young, what should you do if you call her for the rest of your life?" ”

When Mrs. Li heard Mrs. Du's insinuation that her son would die, her face immediately changed, and she said angrily: "Old lady, what do you mean by this? What does it mean to be happy and not rushed? ”

"Say what it means, it means! Where would you not understand such a smart person? Mrs. Du put down this sentence and turned around and went back to the back room.

Mrs. Li turned her head and glared at the eldest lady hatefully: "What about you?" That's what it means? ”

The eldest lady was a little flustered, the Li family couldn't be offended, and if she really wanted to agree, she couldn't be ruthless to her daughter. "Why don't you wait for my lord to come back, I will discuss the specific matters with my lord, and then go to the house to reply?"

Mrs. Li thought for a moment, and now her son was waiting for Chongxi, and Du Mingzhu was the most suitable. As soon as he came to the house, he had a marriage contract, and it was all the Du family's fault to withdraw from the marriage at this time. Second, Du Mingzhu is her daughter-in-law who was selected by thousands of people, although her son said that he was happy, and many people would send his daughter to the door, but in the end it was not as good as Du Mingzhu. Wouldn't it be uncomfortable to marry a woman from a low-income family and enter the door, and your son will be cured of illness in the future?

She nodded and said, "This is a big deal, and it should be discussed with Master Du." I'll be at home tomorrow. ”

The eldest lady nodded and sent Mrs. Li away, and when she returned to her room, she collapsed on the circle chair. Du Mingzhu threw herself into her arms, knelt on the ground, and cried loudly.

The eldest lady touched her daughter's hair, thinking about where this child had suffered such grievances since he was a child? All of a sudden, sorrow came from it, and the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Du Mingzhu's nursing mother persuaded on the side: "Madam, now is not the time to cry!" Before the master comes back, you have to give our girl an idea first! ”

The eldest lady sobbed and said, "O miserable son! I'm a woman, what idea can I get? It's just up to the master! ”

"Madam, you can't say that!" The nurse crouched down in front of the eldest lady and whispered, "The slave has an idea. Doesn't Shangshu Mansion now want to be happy in the past? Then why don't we give them personally? ”

"You mean......" The eldest lady's tears gradually stopped, and she began to think about the nurse's words.

"His family is just holding on to our family's face, and he can't do anything to regret his marriage. But isn't his family afraid that the world will say that they are bullying people and forcing a girl like flowers and bones to rejoice in the sick seedlings? If you want to do everything, you have to be willing to do it! ”

"That's right!" The eldest lady patted Du Mingzhu's back and motioned for her to get up. "I'm really concerned about it! If his family wants to have a word from our family and happily marry this family, then he has to change someone! There are a lot of girls in our family, and they have a big head! ”

Du Mingzhu also calmed down at this time and asked, "What does my mother mean, call the fourth sister to go?" ”

The eldest lady became entangled again, if Du Mingjing was asked to marry to Shangshu Mansion, then she really wanted to burn incense and beg the Bodhisattva, so that Li Ling could breathe earlier. If the little hooves of the cheap life get the momentum, can you pay it back?

"Madam," the nurse saw that she hesitated like this, and that she did not understand something, and was about to persuade her again, but she heard a report from outside that the eldest master had returned.

The eldest lady wiped her face indiscriminately and pulled her daughter up to meet him.

The eldest man entered the house and sat down, looked his wife and daughter up and down, and asked, "What's the matter, the Li family wants to advance the marriage date, but you don't agree?" ”

When the eldest lady heard this, she was shocked, and asked in a trembling voice, "Master, what do you mean by this?" ”

The eldest man blew the tea leaves floating in the teacup, and instructed lightly: "Sister Zhu'er go back to her house first." The face is spent, the hair is messed up, what does it look like! ”

Du Mingzhu didn't want to leave, but his father's face was not very good, so he had to reluctantly leave.

"Master, Sister Zhu is the lifeblood of you and me, how can you marry and rejoice to the sick seedling? Li Ling is so sick that he can't have a round house, if he doesn't leave a son and a half daughter, and leaves Sister Zhu away, are you willing to let her be a widow for the rest of her life? ”

The eldest lord glared at her and said, "What do you know! At this time, it was the Li family who begged our family to get married, and in the future, whether Li Ling lived or died, their family had to remember our friendship in the snow! Isn't this kindness much stronger than just being an in-law? ”

The eldest lady didn't expect her husband's heart to be so cold, and she cried in despair: "No, this can't work! I can't send my daughter into the fire pit with such hands! ”

The eldest master's voice became cold, and he said coldly, "Then what do you want?" ”
