Chapter 240: The Shao family has also arrived
Xia Jin finally waited for Shu Shi to calm down from Xia Qi's marriage, and was about to tell her about Mrs. Luo's marriage proposal, so as to take precautions, but before she could speak, she heard a maid come in and say, "Mrs. Luo heard that Master Xia and Mrs. Xia had arrived, so she said to take a look." I wonder if it is convenient for Master Xia and Mrs. Xia at this time? ”
"Mrs. Luo?" Shu Shi and Xia Zhengqian looked at each other.
"What's wrong?" Xia Jin saw their strange expressions and hurriedly asked.
"Not two days after you went to Beijing, Mrs. Luo rushed to the house and said that Mr. Luo left home and went to the border to join the army. She asked where you were, and we told her that you had been taken to Beijing by Mrs. Xuanpinghou. Within a few days, she was also in Beijing. Shu Shi said, looking at her daughter with concern, "What's the matter, she has been living in Xuanping Houfu since she arrived in the capital?" Did she do anything to you? ”
Xia Jin listened to the information revealed in these words and asked, "She rushed to the house that day, did she speak ill of you again?" ”
Shu Shi sighed: "She is such a lone seedling, she looks like an eyeball." This time I went to the border, death and life were unpredictable, and emotional excitement was inevitable. They are all mothers, and I can understand her feelings. ”
She said, looking at Xia Jin tentatively: "How did you hear Mrs. Luo say that Gongzi Luo went to the border for you?" ”
Speaking of this, Xia Jin was a little irritable. The three words "for her" pressed on her heart like a mountain. If Luo Qian had three longs and two shorts on the battlefield, this mountain would have to press her for the rest of her life.
In her opinion, Luo Qian's trip to the border was not all because of her. A large part of the reason was that Mrs. Luo forced him to accept the Zheng family's family affairs. But she can't say this, otherwise she has no conscience.
"You'd better hurry up and ask the maid to reply to Mrs. Luo. She's still waiting over there. She avoided talking about it.
They are all from Linjiang, and they are in the same house, and they may meet again after dinner. Mrs. Luo took the initiative to send a message to visit. The Xia family naturally had no reason to refuse.
"Let her come." Shu said to the maid.
Taking advantage of the maid's efforts to pass the word, Xia Jin hurriedly told her parents about Mrs. Luo's arrival in Beijing, and finally said: "She probably thinks that as long as the two of us verbally agree on the relationship, it represents her sincerity." When Xuanping Hou Ye passed the news, Luo Qian would happily run back to get married, so he was anxious to agree with his relatives before Hou Ye set out on the expedition. She was in a hurry to visit now, maybe that was what she was talking about. ”
"Then what do you mean......" Shu Shi looked at his daughter.
Now she has a good life. Only the marriage of a pair of children worries her. As soon as I entered Beijing, I heard such a great news as Cen Ziman. This will be if Xia Jin's relatives are also agreed. That's really a double blessing. In her life, there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.
Luo Qian was able to go to the border for her daughter, and this move immediately captured the heart of her mother-in-law. If Xia Jin is willing to marry Luo Qian. Even if she thinks that Mrs. Luo's mother-in-law is not good, she will agree to this family business.
"You just say that the elders and young are orderly, and I have to wait for my brother to discuss the marriage, and then it will be my turn. There's no rush on this matter. ”
Hearing this, Shu Shi was obviously stunned. Xia Jin said this tactfully. But the rejection is still very strong.
When he was about to ask what Xia Jin thought, the curtain was lifted, and a maid came in and said, "Madam, Mrs. Luo has arrived." The maid of Cen Mansion led her to the side hall. ”
Shu had to get up. I straightened my clothes and went to the side hall.
Xia Jin had to be free and chatted with Xia Zhengqian about the situation after saying goodbye. Treat the emperor's illness. For others it is a secret, but in front of loved ones. Xia Jin didn't want to hide it, otherwise the source of the house and fields given by the emperor would not be clear.
"Cup?" Xia Zhengqian was taken aback when he heard this. looked Xia Jin up and down, as if he didn't know this daughter: "You can even cure cup poison?" That master of yours is really amazing! ”
"Well, that's pretty impressive." Xia Jin echoed and told Xia Zhengqian about the Shao family.
"Whether it is your master's family or not, at least they are loyal and patriotic, and they have been framed. You should help them. Xia Zhengqian said, feeling infinite emotion in his heart.
After Xia Jin revealed her medical treatment, Xia Zhengqian knew that his daughter was extraordinary. But he thought that Xia Jin would become a famous doctor in Linjiang at most, and he never thought that she could come to the capital to see the emperor, cure the disease that the imperial doctors were helpless for, and get many rewards, and also did what Xuan Pinghou couldn't do. At a young age, as a mere daughter, she did many things that a man could not do in his life. If a woman is like this, what more can a husband ask for?
"Brother Qi, have you slackened during this time?" He cared about his son.
Xia Jin originally thought that the conversation between Shu Shi and Mrs. Luo would be relatively long, and he knew that Shu Shi only went out for a cup of tea and came back.
As soon as she entered the door, she said to Xia Jin: "Mrs. Luo didn't say anything when she came over, she just asked if the way went well, and chatted about Linjiang for a while." Then she left two packets of bird's nest and left. "It made her very baffled.
"It's best if she doesn't mention it." Xia Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
Because Xia Zhengqian and Shu Shi traveled to Sutun, the lunch in Cen Mansion was not extravagant. Xia Zhengqian was received by Cen Ziman's eldest brother and opened the meal in the outer courtyard; Shu Shi dined in the inner courtyard with the ladies of the Cen Mansion and Mrs. Luo.
"You're going to get married?" Mrs. Luo heard the conversation between Xiao and Shu at the banquet, and learned that the Cen family was going to marry Cen Ziman to Xia Qi, and she couldn't help but be surprised, and she couldn't speak, "This, how is this possible?" ”
"What's impossible?" Old lady Xuanping glanced at her lightly, "Our family doesn't have a family opinion. As long as the child is good, it is better than anything else. ”
Mrs. Luo always felt that Mrs. Xuanping was beating herself with this sentence. Her face was hot and feverish.
Thinking of Cen Ziman and Xia Qi, and then thinking about Luo Qian and Xia Jin, she sighed secretly, regretting it in her heart.
Xia Qi can marry Cen Ziman as his wife, and he can't be regarded as a humble family in the family. If she could have agreed to Luo Qian to marry Xia Jin, she would now be able to become a real relative of Cen Mansion. The most important thing is that the son will not run to the border, and he does not know whether he is alive or dead......
"Old lady, old lady......" a maid ran in with a shout.
The old lady Xuanping put down the chopsticks and scolded: "If you have something to say, what are you doing in a panic?" “
The maid hurriedly promised.
"What's the matter?" Xuan Pinghou asked the old lady.
"Master Hou asked the slave maid to come and report the good news to the old lady and his wife, saying that General Shao's family has entered Beijing."
"Really?" Mrs. Xuan Pinghou was very surprised and asked, "Where are they now?" ”
"I have entered the palace and faced the saint." (To be continued)
