Chapter 225: Mrs. Luo is here
Xia Jin didn't know that a marriage that seemed to be good flew away quietly before she had time to know. She was sitting under the porch of the courtyard at this time, holding a cup of tea in her hand, reading a book and reading fascinated. The maids and women who came and went in the courtyard all slowed down, for fear of disturbing her.
Because of the importance that the Cen family attaches to Xia Jin, none of the Cen family's descendants dare to behave contemptuously towards the Xia family's brothers and sisters.
Xia Jin seems to be reading a book, but in fact, his mind is not in the book. She didn't know why she was so uncertain, which was a rare thing for her.
Cen Ziman went to the front hall and came back with only a cup of tea. She was already a straightforward person, so she made up her mind, and she didn't beat around the bush, and said directly to Xia Jin: "My grandfather has already helped me quit the Peng family." I told him that I would marry your brother. ”
Xia Jin was taken aback. She didn't expect Cen Ziman to make such a decision, and she said it directly.
Although she was very curious about why Cen Ziman was unwilling to marry Su Muxian, Su Muxian's seemingly confessional words were said in front of Cen Ziman, so she couldn't ask about it.
She showed a surprised and overjoyed expression, held Cen Ziman's hand affectionately, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to become my sister-in-law." He blinked again, "If my brother knows the news, I don't know how happy he will be." Do you know that my brother has always liked you. It's only because you are engaged that you keep your thoughts in the bottom of your heart and don't dare to show it. ”
Girls are always sensitive, especially when it comes to their own affairs. Cen Ziman also vaguely guessed a little about Xia Qi's thoughts, which is why she was so bold to tell her elders that she wanted to marry Xia Qi.
At this time, hearing Xia Jin say this, her heart felt like honey. But he made a look of shame on his face, and said with a red face: "I told you that I took you as a good girlfriend, you want to make fun of me, and I won't tell you anything on my mind in the future." ”
"Good sister-in-law, you are the one who is the sister-in-law, is it better not to be so scheming with the sister-in-law?" Xia Jin shook Cen Ziman's arm coquettishly.
"Dead Nizi, see if you dare to laugh at me again." Cen Ziman made a gesture to beat Xia Jin. Xia Jin hurriedly got up to dodge. The two of them laughed in the room for a while before they stopped.
Until the end, Cen Ziman didn't mention that Su Muxian was also present at the time.
She guessed in her heart what her grandfather called Su Mu to come for. She was afraid that Xia Jin would know about it, and she had an estrangement from the Cen family in her heart. So if you try to hide it as much as possible, you naturally won't take the initiative to mention it.
The two of them were tired of laughing, and were sitting down to drink tea and eat snacks, when they saw a maid running in. He said, "Girl, Mrs. Luo from Linjiang City is here." The old lady and the lady let you go to meet the guests. ”
"Mrs. Luo from Linjiang City?" Cen Ziman glanced at Xia Jin in surprise, and then asked, "Who else is with her?" ”
The maid said: "It seems that Mrs. Luo is the only one with a few subordinates. ”
"I'll go." Cen Ziman said, turning his head to look at Xia Jin. "Would you like to go and see you?"
She didn't know about Xia Jin and Luo Qian, but Old Lady Xuan Pinghou and Xiao Shi only asked her to meet the guests, and did not mention Xia Jin. That's why she asked. After all, Xia Jin and Mrs. Luo are familiar with each other, and now Mrs. Luo is from Linjiang. Xia Jin lives in Cen Mansion again, so it is reasonable for Xia Jin to meet him and say hello.
Although Xia Jin had a few unpleasant encounters with Mrs. Luo, he couldn't see him, it was too rude, and it was easy to leave a bad impression on people up and down the Xuanping Waiting Mansion. Now is the critical time for Xia Qi to discuss marriage with Cen Ziman, and she can't drop the chain. And she was also more curious in her heart, wanting to know what Mrs. Luo was doing in the capital.
She stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go over with you to salute." ”
When the two arrived at the main hall of the backyard, they saw Mrs. Luo sitting in the guest seat, talking to Mrs. Xuanping and Mrs. Xiao Shi.
Cen Ziman and Xia Jin stepped forward to greet them separately.
Seeing Xia Jin, Mrs. Luo was not surprised.
At the beginning, Xuanping waited for Xia Jin and used his token to enter and exit the Linjiang City Gate, but this matter naturally could not be concealed from Luo Weitao, the parent official. For fear that Mrs. Luo would go to Xia's house to make trouble again, he told his wife about it.
Therefore, Xia Jin is in the capital, and he is waiting for Xuanping to see a doctor, Mrs. Luo knows. She came to Beijing this time, half of them were for the Zheng family, and half were also for Xia Jin.
As soon as Mrs. Luo arrived at the house, she greeted Xuan Pinghou's body first, and even greeted the old lady Xuanping Hou and the Cen family's body. At this time, when she met Cen Ziman and Xia Jin, she smiled without words: "Sister Man is getting older and more Peugeot." He asked Mrs. Xuanping again, "When is Sister Man's wedding date?" Don't forget to tell me, I'm going to come for a glass of wine and say hello to Sister Man. ”
This is really a pot that can't be opened, and everyone else in the room looked at Cen Ziman in unison, for fear that she would be sad or embarrassed and angry.
But he didn't want Cen Ziman to still look calm, as if he hadn't heard Mrs. Luo's words, so that Mrs. Xuanping and Mrs. Xiao were relieved.
Mrs. Xuanping waited for the old lady to pay attention to Mrs. Luo, and she said lightly: "Sister Man has quit the Peng family. ”
"Huh?" Mrs. Luo's expressions were very strange when she came to see everyone, guessing that she had said the wrong thing, but she didn't expect it to be like this.
She quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't know about this." ”
"It's not your fault, you just came from Linjiang, how did you know about this." Mrs. Xuanping was very reasonable, but she did not anger Mrs. Luo.
However, she didn't want to continue this topic, and asked instead: "You came to the capital this time, but you were hired by the Zheng family?" Why don't you come along? ”
The smile on Mrs. Luo's face froze obviously, she sighed, and said with a bitter smile: "I came today to apologize to you and the Zheng family." When we heard that the border was unstable, he left a letter and ran to the border with us on our back. said that if he didn't defeat Beiliangguo, he wouldn't come back. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what kind of trouble Luo Qian was making, only Xia Jin was shocked.
Luo Qian said that he wanted to join the army, but she thought he was just talking. Luo Qian is a young master of an official family, he has lived a good life since he was a child, and a group of subordinates are waiting, where can he endure the hardships of the military camp? And he just didn't get married as he wanted, not that his family was ruined. National hatred and family hatred. Nine times out of ten, things don't go as planned. How many people can marry the person they want to marry according to their own hearts? Marry the girl that your parents fancie, live a good life, after a long time, and have a child, how much of the original memory will fade away. Why did he have to do it for her, for such a relationship that was not blessed by his mother. Putting their lives and their future at risk. What about running to the border to join the army? This kid, stupid, right?
Thinking about it made her upset. I can't calm down for a long time.
Mrs. Luo continued: "Brother Qian'er is gone, and I don't know when I will be able to come back. Fortunately, with the Zheng family, it is only a family discussion, and it has not yet reached the point of changing Geng posts and hiring. Now Miss Zheng is almost seventeen years old. Brother Qian went to the border like this, I was afraid that he would delay Miss Zheng. That's why I'm here in Beijing this time. I want to apologize to the Zheng family. If the Zheng family stops doing this, we will not have a complaint. ”
With that, she stood up, walked to the old lady Xuanping and bowed dignifiedly. His face was full of shame: "I know I'm sorry for your old man." You helped to match, and how much effort did it take to help us talk about this family business. And ......"
The shame on her face was even stronger: "My lord can be promoted to the position of prefect." Thanks to the help of Master Zheng. Now it is really ungrateful to say that family affairs are stopped. There's just no way to ......," said it. Her tears fell to her front and she choked up.
Because of the clue provided by Su Muxian that "Peng Yuzhang and Zheng Wan have a personal relationship", the direction is clear, and it is very easy to investigate, and in the past two days, the Cen Mansion has inquired clearly about what happened in the hunting ground that day and the source of the rumors. All things are directed at An Yishan; And behind her is the shadow of Zheng Wanru.
Zheng Wanru said, "Cen Ziman and Su Muxian's cousin are very close and are together all day. Su Muxian's refusal to marry a wife was just for Cen Ziman", such words fooled An Yishan. An Yishan is a brainless and very impulsive person, spoiled and lawless, and can do anything. When Zheng Wanru said this, she faintly said some methods in her words, such as "I heard that there is a country boy in Cen Mansion", "If Cen Ziman has a bad reputation", An Yishan was stupidly used as a gunman and did things like hunting grounds and rumors.
All the spearheads were pointed at An Yishan, but Zheng Wanru didn't even leave a sentence, slippery like a loach in the pond.
Introducing such a woman who has a heart, has been broken, and is full of intrigue and intrigue to Luo Qian, Mrs. Xuanping is full of guilt when she thinks of it, and always wants to hand a message to Mrs. Luo to remind her, it is best to quit this family business.
But the matter of King Yan is still under investigation, and it is not appropriate for the Peng family to fight snakes and scare snakes, and Zheng Wanru's matter is naturally not easy to talk about. After thinking about it, I couldn't find a good excuse for Mrs. Luo to withdraw from her family, for this matter, Mrs. Xuanping waited for the old lady to not eat and sleep for the past two days, and she was tossed enough.
So when she heard that Mrs. Luo was coming, she was very affectionate, knowing that the Luo family also had a house in the capital, she insisted on leaving Mrs. Luo to live in the Cen Mansion, thinking of finding an opportunity to reveal this matter to Mrs. Luo.
But she didn't want to fall asleep and meet the pillow, and before she could start talking, Mrs. Luo said such a thing.
Therefore, Mrs. Luo, who was full of anxiety, did not see an annoyed and unhappy expression on the face of the old lady Xuanpinghou, but faintly showed joy, calling her the second monk confused.
"Auntie, look at this......" she said, standing there, uneasy.
