Chapter 41: Hope

Of course, Wei Qingzhou knew what these people were trying to do, but now his thoughts were all on the other person, and looking at the woman next to him, he couldn't see a ripple in his heart.

What makes him unhappy now is that these people are interested in offering beauty, why is Zheng Shoubei blind, his own daughters are married, but doesn't he still have a righteous daughter?

If Zheng Shoubei offered his daughter, he would pretend not to know about the marriage. But if Zheng Shoubei doesn't do this, then he will be the villain who ruined her marriage.

was swept away by Prince An's cold eyes again, and Zheng Shoubei was covered with cold sweat. What did he do wrong, and why was the prince's eyes full of dissatisfaction? Is it because he is not hospitable? But this is already the best and highest specification around the city.

After the banquet, Zheng Shoubei's face collapsed, and even the clothes on his back were soaked with sweat.

Zheng Xu, who came out of the female family, saw Zheng Shoubei's appearance of suffering a great disaster, and was immediately shocked, and asked, "What happened at the banquet?" ”

The two sides were not far away, and Zheng Xu didn't hear any unusual sound on the other side. Didn't you say that the daughter of the Wang family also gave a dance to the prince?

After knowing this, she couldn't sit still, for fear that the prince would be fascinated by the daughter of the Wang family, and then she would be indifferent to the one who was in their mansion.

Zheng Shoubei didn't even ride a horse, squeezed into Zheng Xu's carriage, wiped his sweat and said: "I suspect that the prince is dissatisfied with me, and his eyes are always cold when he looks at me. ”

It's not promising.

Zheng Xu secretly pursed his lips and said, "I heard that there are women dancing at the banquet, the prince likes those women, does the prince always look at them?" ”

After thinking about it, Zheng Shoubei shook his head and said with an affirmative face: "The prince didn't look at them much, whether it was the Yang family's daughter toasting or the Wang family's daughter dancing, the prince treated them mediocre." I haven't seen them as much time as I have seen them. ”

If it weren't for that, he wouldn't be so restless.

Zheng Xu pouted in his heart, Prince Ruo'an is really a courteous gentleman, and he will not get involved with a woman on the road, but a woman with a marriage contract.

No matter how polite she is, in fact, she doesn't look down on the girl of the Hu family very much.

"No matter what, the prince is young, and he can't be said to be hooked by a fox." Zheng Xu said calmly: "You have to stop it, there are no female dependents around the prince, if you let others come out on top, then the treasure we press is not worth anything." ”

This Zheng Shoubei was not worried, and waved his hand and said: "What kind of identity is the prince, he grew up in the nest of wealth when he was young, what kind of beauty has not been seen, and there is no woman who can make him look at him." ”

"If you hadn't told me that the Hu family girl knew that the prince was slightly flawed, I wouldn't have believed it at all."

Zheng Xu snorted lightly: "If you don't believe it, you have to believe it, now the prince has come to Huancheng in person for her." Delay for three more days at most, and then the girl's marriage will be withdrawn, and her voice will be almost raised, so let's find a suitable opportunity to send someone over. ”

"That's good." Zheng Shoubei nodded again and again, and said, "You take care of that girl's food, and tell her to raise her throat as soon as possible." When the time comes, send people up, no matter where the prince is dissatisfied, he will also be happy. ”

In order to delay the time a little longer, Hu Jiaren deliberately ate something greasy and coarse, just to prevent a good throat from being so fast.

It's only been one day, and the next day, her table is full of soup and water, and the thickest one is white porridge.

Tan Yue whispered: "Miss Jia, Madame has ordered, before her throat is raised, Miss Jia should eat these light and restrained things." ”

Hu Jiaren pulled out a stiff smile and said, "My stepmother is also for my good, so be it." ”

Because she can't use her brains on eating, Hu Jiaren no longer embarrass her voice, she doesn't dare to mess around, in case she completely hurts her throat and becomes a voice like a broken gong, it will be too sinful.

Hu Jiaren, who can't think about it for the time being, began to hope that the Yan family would not withdraw from the family, as long as the side bit to death and refused to withdraw from the marriage, there would be plenty of time.

She really didn't want to get to the point of self-destruction.

On this day, Steward Hu rode a horse and traveled all the way, and finally arrived at Yan's house before dark.

Many years ago, the Yan family was also a family with modest property. Later, the emperor got a scientific examination, and he hoped that his children and grandchildren would get ahead and all of them would study.

It's just that after three generations, only Master Yan has taken the exam, and most of the other children and grandchildren are just children. And the men all focus on reading and don't produce, and over time, the Yan family has become poorer and poorer, and now only this old mansion remains.

Steward Hu couldn't care about the pain in his body, and when he saw someone, he explained his intention.

"Hello aunt, today I am on the orders of the master to come and quit the Yan family." Although Steward Hu didn't know what was going on inside, he also guessed what this Third Young Master Yan must have done, otherwise the eldest lady would not have spoken and asked people not to even let the door in.

Yan Zhang is in his early fifties, and he has lived a lot of hard times after her husband's death, with a few strands of gray hair mixed with gray hair. If it weren't for my sister's help, this family wouldn't know how to survive.

She was not in good health, her face turned white when she heard this, and she asked tremblingly: "How do you say this, the marriage of the two families has been set for six years, and seeing that the children are growing up, it will be completed next year, why did you suddenly change your mind?" ”

"Is there a better family?"

Steward Hu couldn't help frowning and said, "Mrs. Auntie, you can't talk nonsense, it's just that my eldest lady is dissatisfied with the third cousin and doesn't want her relatives to become enemies in the future, so she thinks about quitting the marriage." ”

"When Mrs. Aunt said this, is she alluding to the treachery of the Hu family?"

"There must be a reason, huh?" Yan Zhang pursed his lips and asked.

"I'm a subordinate, where do I know what the reason is." Steward Hu said lightly: "It's better to ask Third Young Master Yan if Mrs. Auntie, he must know why." ”

"You, you go and call Liwan." Zhang Yanshi pushed the maid, this maid was a few years ago, and her sister saw that she was not in good health and bought it to take care of her.

The maid responded, and when she got out of the house, she sped up, and after a while, she turned into a room and shouted inside: "Third young master, third young master." ”

Yan Liwan, who heard the voice, raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Come in." When the people came in, they smiled and said, "Qiu'er, come to me in broad daylight, aren't you afraid of being discovered?" ”

Qiu'er said anxiously: "Third Young Master, it's not that when I was talking about this, someone from the Hu family came and said that I was going to withdraw from the marriage with the third young master!" ”

Yan Liwan, who was still shaking with his legs just now, jumped up all of a sudden, and asked with a straight face, "Is this serious?" ”

"Of course it's true." Qiu'er nodded and said, "It's Steward Hu who came, saying that the Hu family is dissatisfied with you, and now he wants to withdraw from the marriage." Madame asked for a reason, Steward Hu said that the third young master knew, and now Madame asked me to call you over. ”
