Chapter 34: The Father (II)
After talking for a while, the eldest man was tired and wanted to rest, Rong Hua and Yanhua retreated with the maid, and the eldest lord and the eldest lady went into the main house.
The eldest lady asked Dong Rui to fetch water to wash her feet, and then sent the maids out, and squatted down to wash the feet of the eldest master.
"It's tiring, isn't it? My feet are blistered, and I'll pick them for you in a moment. ”
The eldest lord closed his eyes and nodded.
The eldest lady was busy for a while, and served the eldest master to bed, and then talked about the things in the house in the past few days.
Hearing Shuhua's miscarriage, the eldest man opened his eyes, "Shuhua has always been in good health, how could she have a miscarriage, don't patronize the aftermath, think about it yourself, is it the Hou Mansion?" ”
The eldest lady sat down and gently pinched the eldest man's knee, "I have thought about it too, but it doesn't look like Mrs. Cai...... Besides, this is the first child in the long house, the tiger poison does not eat children, and our Shuhua has not done anything wrong, there is no reason. ”
The great lord can't deny it.
The eldest lady said again: "The Wang family entrusted the wife of Xue Zhongyun of Zuo Chunfang to come to the house to propose. mentioned Wang Shangshu's third brother, who is his wife. ”
The eldest master's eyes flashed and he frowned, "Wang Shangshu's stupid brother? How does this work? ”
The eldest lady sighed and said: "This is also a matter of no choice, the Hou Mansion has already been booked, if we can still talk about it in normal times, now Shuhua happens to have a miscarriage," paused, "I have already agreed with Mrs. Cai, and then choose a daughter from our family to marry to the Hou Mansion as a concubine." "Sisters serving a husband together is a more common method.
The eldest lord finally nodded with satisfaction, "The Yicheng Marquis Mansion can't be thrown away." Over the years, we have been bothering a lot about it, and if something goes wrong halfway, the previous efforts will be in vain. ”
"Just." The eldest lady's face turned pale, and she vomited.
The eldest lord said: "Just say something." ”
The eldest lady's eyes were red, and tears fell, "Shuhua had a miscarriage, Mrs. Cai meant to blame Shuhua for being careless, I wanted to comfort Shuhua in the Hou Mansion on the one hand, and on the other hand, I wanted to see Mrs. Cai's face, for fear that there would be something wrong." ”
The eldest lord remembered the first miscarriage of the eldest lady, and the days when the two of them were oppressed by the old lady, he couldn't help but sigh sadly, "I'm not at home, these things will fall on you, hard work for you." ”
The eldest lady said this, and the tears couldn't be stopped, and the eldest lady also stretched out his hand to help the eldest lady wipe her tears.
The eldest man comforted the eldest lady, "It was not easy for you before, there was an old lady pressing on the top, and there were these trivial matters at home below, finally the old lady didn't care about the affairs of the house all these years, and the children are old again, you can't help but worry." After a few years, Brother Hong marries a daughter-in-law, and someone can help you. ”
The eldest lady said aggrievedly in a thick nasal voice: "But there is one more thing, I really don't know what to do." ”
The eldest lady has always been a strong person, and rarely shows weakness to the eldest master, unless she really encounters difficulties.
"What's wrong? Let's hear it. The old man's voice softened.
The eldest lady said in embarrassment, "Two days ago, the Yicheng Marquis Mansion invited us to see the church meeting, and also invited Wang Shangshu's Aunt Chen, I knew that the Wang family wanted to see each other, so I brought Rong Hua over." The eldest lady paused deliberately to look at the eldest master's face.
The eldest lord's face was soothing, and the eldest lady knew that among the remaining daughters, the eldest lord cared about the last thing was Ronghua, who had just entered the mansion. Marrying Rong Hua to the Wang family is in line with the old man's wishes.
"I think the Wang family is also very satisfied with Ronghua, but before we went home, Mrs. Cai suddenly mentioned Yanhua in front of Aunt Chen, praised Yanhua for being good, and prepared a gift for Yanhua."
"I just think that Mrs. Cai likes Advantech in her heart, who ......knows?"
The eldest lady's face tightened, "Who knows, the Wang family came to propose marriage, and it was our sixth sister Yanhua who was named and mentioned." ”
The eldest man was slightly stunned and sat up from the bed, "What?" ”
The eldest lady also became anxious, "How good is this, I don't want to marry Yanhua to the Wang family," she said and wept again, "Yanhua has been by my side for so many years, except for Shuhua and Yaohua, I like her the most, and her food and clothing are no different from her two sisters, I have always wanted to find a good family for her, but I didn't expect ...... I'm really reluctant. ”
"I originally wanted Shuhua to talk to Mrs. Cai and let Ronghua marry into the Wang family, but Shuhua had such a thing."
The eldest man said: "If the Wang family falls in love with Rong Hua, they will not mention Yanhua." I think the Wang family must have heard that Ronghua was born and raised in a foreign country, so they wanted Yanhua. ”
The eldest lady said, "Not necessarily. I heard Shuhua say that everyone in the Yicheng Marquis Mansion thinks that Rong Hua looks like Princess Honghua, the twin sister of the noble concubine. ”
The eldest lord was surprised: "Princess Honghua? ”
The eldest lady lowered her eyelids, "Isn't it Princess Honghua, Mrs. Cai should be because of this to prevent Rong Hua from marrying into the Wang family." The eldest lady was very embarrassed, "There are no other young ladies of the right age in our house now, why don't you choose one from the clan to marry Yanhua?" ”
"I originally wanted to discuss the result with the master and then tell the fourth aunt, but I don't know where the fourth aunt heard the news, so she must have asked me to quit this family business immediately, otherwise I will take Yanhua to find the master......" The eldest lady's aggrieved tears flowed again, "Does she think I am willing to agree?" People's hearts are flesh and blood, and she doesn't know how I have been with Advantech over the years. ”
"The fourth aunt doesn't know where so many crazy words came out, and she insisted that I was ruthless, not to mention selling women, even if I killed women, I could do it."
The eldest man seemed to have been poked in the heart, and frowned angrily, "The more you talk about it, the more you don't like it." What is her identity, dare to run in front of you and say irresponsible things, the young lady of Tao Mansion should have done something for Tao Mansion, let alone her, just say that the princess Honghua you just talked about is not crossing the ocean to marry a small country. ”
The eldest man thought for a moment, "Since the Wang family has come to ask for it, let's agree!" ”
The eldest lady raised her head in surprise, "Master......" was just about to dissuade her.
The eldest man shook his hand, "After all, they are all in the capital, and they can take care of some in the future, unlike the third sister and the fourth sister, who marry so far away." ”
The eldest lady reluctantly agreed.
"But on the fourth aunt's side, I said that she was sick, and I was afraid that she would say something to Yanhua. Yanhua can't accept that if something happens, then he can ......, "If something goes wrong, it's a matter of face," and I can't keep the fourth aunt in lockdown. ”
The eldest lord said disgustedly: "Lock her up first, and then release her after Yanhua successfully marries into the Wang family, so as to save her from having extraneous branches." ”
The eldest lady had to follow the old man's will to explain the matter, and when she came out of the warm pavilion, Chen's mother had been waiting outside, and the eldest lady and Chen's mother looked at each other for a while, and immediately showed a satisfied smile.
In the evening, Hibiscus waited for Rong Hua to go to bed, Rong Hua picked up a book of poems next to her and looked at it, and when she saw her favorite poems, Brother Hong came in from outside.
Hibiscus and Jinxiu naturally retreated.
Rong Hua raised his head to talk to Brother Hong, and suddenly found that there seemed to be a scrape on Brother Hong's cheek, Rong Hua frowned, and asked Brother Hong, "What's wrong with your face?" Accidentally fell? ”
Brother Hong sat down with a smile, "I accidentally rubbed it into a fight with someone." ”
Rong Hua put down the book in his hand and raised his eyebrows, "Fight? In the Left Sect? ”
Brother Hong said with a smile: "Originally, it was someone else who was fighting, I went to have a fun, and I was hit in the face by something thrown over." ”
Rong Hua went to see the wound on Brother Hong's face, but fortunately, the wound was just looking bluffing, not deep.
"Sister, guess who is fighting? It is the son of Chang Ningbo's family, who is good friends with his eldest brother-in-law, this son likes to talk about the glorious things of meritorious nobles on weekdays, and today he just talks about the most promising children of the current nobles, among whom there is a big brother-in-law. ”
"Later, when it came to Wu Muhou, Chang Ningbo's son felt that it was not worth mentioning, which annoyed the two noble sons who were good friends with Wu Muhou, and several people scuffled together."
"Those two noble sons who are good friends with Wu Muhou are the most difficult on weekdays, and it is useless for the doctor to persuade them," Brother Hong paused and showed a mischievous smile, "Someone still looked for Wu Muhou and separated the two sons." ”
Rong Hua's eyes flashed, "Wu Muhou? ”
Brother Hong said: "Yes, Wu Muhou," after a pause, he said: "Although Wu Muhou looks fierce and scary, I think this is good, and he is proud and ......."
Rong Hua couldn't help but laugh loudly, "You know what pure arrogance is. ”
Brother Hong said seriously, "The eldest brother-in-law is gentle and elegant. But Wu Muhou is not necessarily indifferent, maybe he is arrogant. After a pause, he said: "Didn't my sister say that the low-eyed Bodhisattva and the angry eyes of King Kong, you can't look at people and look at appearances." ”
Rong Hua touched his brother's head, "It's not as simple as you think." ”
Brother Hong straightened his chest, "I like that." ”
Low-eyed bodhisattva or angry-eyed vajra? She used to think that Zhao Xuanhuan was a person who was gentle on the outside and strong on the inside, but she didn't expect him to be obedient in the end. Originally, she thought that even if Zhao Xuanhuan had three wives and four concubines, as long as he did not marry the eldest sister of the Tao family, she could forgive him.
In today's situation, she would rather marry the Wang family than have a wife like Shuhua in front of her, reminding her all the time that Shuhua's status can never be surpassed. What's more, she died unexpectedly before, and then she was wronged under Shuhua, as if she had accepted her fate and succumbed to her fate.
Brother Hong talked for a while before leaving, and Rong Hua lay on the bed and thought carefully.
Everyone in the house said that Yaohua is good, if Yaohua can successfully marry into the Hou Mansion and be named Mrs. Decree in the future, it will be a good reward?
