Not long after Qiu Yulan returned to her yard, Jiang Qizheng actually came to the door - but she said that she was only here to visit Shao Yuemei.

In this case, Qiu Yulan would not disturb them, ordered someone to bring snacks and tea, and sat with them for a while, and then found a reason to leave.

As soon as she left, Shao Yuemei asked, "Your Highness is here to ...... today" Chao Qiu Lan's room glanced at it, "What kind of charter is this?" "She is the person sent by the Jiang family to inspect the future daughter-in-law, she is a cronie, about the matter of Yunyi Building, the maid brought from the Jiang family last night went out for a spin, and when she came back, she brought the truth, which will not require Jiang Qizheng to bother with words.

"Grandmother doesn't have a bad impression of her, and you know the character of the nineteenth brother, and after discussing it with the family yesterday, the nineteenth brother simply hired her." Jiang Qizheng frowned and said, "Originally, grandmother will go into the palace to talk to the fourth aunt today...... But this morning my grandmother felt a little unwell, so she didn't go. ”

She didn't know that Jiang Yashuang came over at night to talk to Qiu Yulan about the marriage proposal - after all, Mrs. Tao and Jiang Yashuang both thought that this kind of impolite behavior should not be listened to by the pearls in their palms. Therefore, Jiang Qizheng has no doubt about the reason why Mrs. Tao did not enter the palace today.

Shao Yuemei has taught Jiang Qizheng for several years, and she is also a teacher and sister, and she knows this Chunfu princess very well, and as soon as she looked at her, she asked, "Your Highness doesn't approve of this matter?" Although His Royal Highness was not as active as Princess Yongfu before, didn't he not object? ”

"After all, it's nineteen's wife, as long as he wants to marry and the person is not bad, I naturally won't have an opinion." Jiang Qizheng took a sip of tea and said in a low voice, "But, I only knew what happened......

After Jiang Qizheng noticed that the relationship between Mrs. Gu and Qiu Yulan was not quite right, she immediately opened her mouth and gave the two steps and asked the two to go out to solve the problem - but although she really stayed to talk to Princess Yang, she secretly instructed her henchmen to follow and eavesdrop.

I listened to my henchman 1510 about Mrs. Gu's kneeling and begging for rejection to Qiu Yulan, and she was a little unhappy at this moment: "It is true that Deng Yi is not a good match, but the marriage contract is not dissolved, and Mrs. Gu is always her future mother-in-law, and with the respect of an elder, she personally kneels down and begs to her - even if the matter is big, she can't agree, but her attitude is also indifferent." I always feel that such a hard-hearted woman is not suitable for nineteen. ”

Shao Yuemei asked a few words and felt that Qiu Yulan was too hard-hearted, but she refused to criticize Jiang Yashuang's marriage, and only said: "Fortunately, the old lady did not enter the palace today, and His Royal Highness will tell the old lady about it, and the old lady will also consider it." ”

"However, if Nineteen doesn't marry her, even if our family protects her from being sunk, I'm afraid her life will be ruined." Jiang Qizheng sighed again, "Good girl's family...... It's a shame to think about it when you think about it. ”

Shao Yuemei didn't see it that way, although she didn't hear Qiu Yulan's shocking statement that "I was born to be a material for red face and trouble", but after observing these days, she felt that this little county lord was not so easy to sink, and seeing that Jiang Qizheng was quite in a dilemma, she persuaded: "Didn't you just say that she was hard-hearted?" Hard-hearted people, although the most likely to hurt people's hearts, tend to live well themselves. As long as you protect her in the future, I'm afraid that even if she can't marry high, she will be at ease as the master of her own house after marrying low. ”

Jiang Qizheng thought about it, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Although she is not suitable for the nineteenth brother, but this time she is alone with the nineteenth brother, in the end, the starling brother calculated, to put it simply, it is always our family that harms her...... After all, she will have a good life in the future, and the nineteenth brother will feel less guilty. ”

Shao Yuemei smiled and said: "The nineteenth prince is kind-hearted—I said something that shouldn't be said, he really asked the eighth prince to be pitted for this matter." ”

"Who's to say it isn't?" Jiang Qizheng sighed, "Grandfather was furious when he learned what happened yesterday evening, and he was going to teach the starling a lesson with his own hands, but what the uncle said also makes sense: didn't this eye-joint hit the starling brother, didn't it make people think about the matter of Yunyilou?" ”

pouted slightly, "As a result, after the starling was exempted from being beaten, he went out to drink the spring building in the evening with great interest, and he didn't worry about it at all." However, the nineteenth brother was so angry that even Cousin Tao sent her home, and she was not allowed to come to our house casually. ”

In addition to being a rival in love, Tao Peibin is gentle and polite to others, Shao Yuemei has a good impression of this student, so she wants to say a few words to her: "The nineteenth prince is talented and beautiful, and Miss Tao grew up with him...... Even if he deliberately targeted the county lord of Ningyi in Yunyi Building this time, I think it was because he was not old and ignorant. In the past, she often went to Jiang's house, but if she suddenly didn't come, I was afraid that she would also be discussed! ”

Jiang Qizheng had always listened to Shao Yuemei's words, but at this moment, she shook her head and said: "Grandmother is also in favor of asking her not to go to Jiang's house easily after she goes home-after all, the nineteenth brother has no intention of her, she didn't know it before, but now that she knows, letting her have the hope of seeing the nineteenth brother will hurt her." ”

Shao Yuemei immediately didn't mention it with interest - after all, she was just a female gentleman, and she had done her best to fight for Tao Peibin in private.

The two talked again, and Jiang Qizheng took his leave and left.

When she left, of course, Qiu Yulan had to come out to send it off, and this time she found that Jiang Qizheng, who had "hit it off at first sight" with her before, was a lot more estranged.

Qiu Yulan didn't know that this was because Jiang Qizheng felt that she was not suitable to marry her younger brother, so she naturally wouldn't treat her with the same attitude as her future brother-in-law. And Qiu Yulan thought: "Sure enough, my sisters are closer, yesterday's incident was obviously that Jiang Qisheng and Tao Peibin were not good, but this Princess Chunfu was annoyed with me...... However, anyway, listening to the meaning of Jiang Yashuang's words yesterday, the person the Jiang family plans to marry to their cousin is not this princess. ”

Thinking about it like this, she was too lazy to be enthusiastic, and the two of them walked all the way to the door, and they both felt that they were very happy, and they were exceptionally neat.

Su He didn't know the inside story, and he was very worried on the way back: "Didn't Her Royal Highness Princess Chunfu come to speak for the county lord?" Why is it that now that he is away from the princess, he is far less enthusiastic than before? ”

"If you don't be enthusiastic, you won't be enthusiastic." Qiu Yulan said indifferently, "It's not the right time for Cousin Kang to come, just sit down and Princess Chunfu is leaving—hurry up and go back and ask her." Don't Aunt Bian or anything like that. ”

Because of the gyokuro cream given by Qiu Yulan, the scar on Kang Lizhang's face was so faint that it was difficult to detect at this time, and it couldn't be seen at all after a little fat powder. But at the moment, he looked a little listless: "I wanted to stop you just now, I don't want you to leave." ”

Qiu Yulan sat down and said disapprovingly: "Princess Chunfu has a noble status, she wants to leave, how can she wait for a long time?" ”

Kang Lizhang frowned and said: "No, you don't know - just now, the scene when you and Mrs. Gu went out of the flower hall to talk, Princess Chunfu made the maid follow behind, and she knew it." She sighed, "I came here to tell you as soon as I knew, I don't want Princess Chunfu to know if it was intentional, or coincidentally, I just said goodbye before I had time to speak!" ”

Qiu Yulan was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Could it be that the Jiang family will feel sorry for Mrs. Gu and Deng Yi?" If you see it, you see it. ”

Kang Lizhang said: "But the people in front of the eldest aunt said that Princess Chunfu has always been a heavy salute, and she knows that Mrs. Gu will kneel for you...... I'm afraid I won't like it. ”

"If you don't like it, you don't like it." Qiu Yulan didn't care at all, "She is not the only one in the Jiang family. ”

Kang Lizhang pondered the meaning of these words, didn't she imply that she had other backers in the Jiang family, and she was not weaker than Princess Chunfu?

Thinking of this, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief - after all, after hearing Qiu Mengmin's murder of her mother and promising to hand over her mother and daughter to Qiu Yulan for disposal, she now looks at her uncle and aunt is similar to watching a femme fatale and a tiger, and there is Qiu Yulan who has a higher hatred value for Qiu Mengmin and his wife, and she is safer.

Seeing that she didn't continue to speak, Qiu Yulan didn't say goodbye, and said strangely: "What else is going on?" ”

"I heard just now......" Kang Lizhang bit his lip, "The wedding date of the eldest cousin has been set, and it will be on the twenty-sixth day of May." ”

"And then?"

Kang Lizhang continued to bite her lip: "The princess plans to say goodbye to her fourth cousin when her eldest cousin passes through the door-fourth cousin, she is two years younger than me!" ”

Qiu Yulan said: "Oh, are you worried about your life? ”

"I think about it, it's better to get married early." Kang Lizhang's cheeks were slightly red when he said this, but he still tried to state in a calm tone, "I really don't have the courage or confidence to use the method you said. ”

Qiu Yulan smiled: "Anyway, I said it's up to you to choose." After a pause, he added, "So who do you want to marry?" ”

Who to marry? Kang Lizhang entered the Xihe Palace, although because of Mrs. Lu's preference, she lived more nourishingly than the serious county lord, but because her father's family was not obvious, like Mrs. Lu, when the daughter of a serious official family gathered and played, she didn't look down on her at all.

Even if Mrs. Lu pressed Qiu Jinzhu to take her out, she would go out with excitement and return with defeat. Although Kang Lizhang is good at forbearance, he is also impatient to be low in front of a group of people for many years, so he has never been there again.

Coupled with Princess Yang's deliberate concealment, where does she have any wishful candidates?

…… It cannot be said that there is nothing at all.

"But that Ruan Qingyan is both talented and beautiful, and he is an uncrowned jinshi! I'm afraid that many adults in the court want to recruit him as a son-in-law! Where's my turn? Kang Lizhang remembered that when Ruan Qingyan came to visit Qiu Yulan last year, he stood on the embroidery floor and accidentally glimpsed the beautiful son, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.

At that time, she was also impressed by Ruan Qingyan's appearance and bearing, not unmoved. But at that time, thinking that the Ruan family was thin, Ruan Qingyan still came over, even if he was a teenager, who knew that he would definitely be able to win the title in the future? There's no need to take that risk.

But I don't want this to be less than a year, and the people who have been moved in the past and feel that they are not worthy of themselves are already completely unthinkable.

Kang Lizhang pressed the sadness in his heart: "Even if I get married low, even if I leave the cabinet, I will not escape the poison, but if I marry high, my identity is not qualified." So I thought ......," she gritted her teeth, "I can only make people small!" ”

Qiu Yulan was stunned for a moment, and said, "Be small? ”

"Although I am the niece of the palace, the Kang family is just a solid family in the market, and they are not even really rich." Kang Lizhang pursed his lips and smiled bitterly, "Women have always been born according to their father's family, I want to marry into a wealthy family that can't be moved by the palace, if I don't be small, what else can I do?" ”

She now regrets it very much in her heart, when Mrs. Lu was there, she was wholeheartedly worried about being angry in front of the daughters of the official families who had humiliated her in the past, and she thought that those who were willing to hire her were not rich enough. Shengsheng dragged down this lifelong event.

Now it has fallen to such a point!

Qiu Yulan smiled and said: "It's worthy of being a cousin, and there is really a decision...... Now that you've decided to take this step, you don't know who you're going to give it to? ”
