Chapter 180: Marriage Proposal
Aunt Liu nodded and said with a smile: "If Madam is willing to reveal to Mrs. Ye a little bit of the intention of marrying Young Master Mingcheng and Miss Ye, are you still afraid that Madam Ye will not take the bait?" At that time, Mrs. Ye hinted again, she lacked some silver in her hand, Mrs. Ye was afraid of Miss Ye's life, and she would not dare not give it, if she didn't give you the silver, you would withdraw from the marriage, what should I do if I saw Miss Ye's reputation at that time! ”
Mrs. Weiyuan Hou thought about it carefully, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this idea was good, one of which was that the Ye family was now Jane in the emperor's heart, and there was no disadvantage in marrying the Ye family; The second is that Mu Mingcheng and Ye Tanghua have grown up together since childhood, and they can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, and it is also a good story to spread out; The third is that Ye Tanghua now has the position of the second-grade county lord, which will also help Mu Mingcheng's future career; The fourth is that Ye Mu's dowry is rich, and there is only one son and one daughter under her knees, and there will never be less dowry for Ye Tanghua, when the time comes, she will use a little trick as a mother-in-law, and it will not be difficult for this little girl to hand over the silver; Her five-leaf begonia flower has been blocking her a lot these days, hindering her aunt and niece from inside and outside, she is not good at teaching Ye Tanghua now, but if Ye Tanghua marries into the Mu family, it will be different, and it is natural for her mother-in-law to torture her daughter-in-law! It is said that the daughter-in-law to be married becomes a mother-in-law, what does it mean to boil? Is life as a daughter-in-law so good?
And after marrying Mu Mingcheng and Ye Tanghua, she can also go down the river to blackmail Ye Mu's family, if Ye Mu's family doesn't give her money, then she will withdraw from the marriage directly, anyway, it will be Ye Tanghua whose reputation will be damaged at that time!
The more Mrs. Weiyuan Hou thought about it, the more she felt that this business was actually profitable and unprofitable, and she couldn't help but feel overjoyed, she couldn't bear it for a moment, and immediately stood up: "Come on, prepare the car, go to Ye Shangshu's mansion!" ”
After receiving the news that Mrs. Weiyuan Hou had left the house, Mrs. Mu just snorted coldly: "I must have gone out to raise money, and let her go, see how much she can get back!" He closed his eyes and ignored it.
When it was, Ye Tanghua still hadn't returned home.
On the Ye Mansion, Ye Mushi invited Mrs. Weiyuan Hou to sit down with a smile, but he wondered in his heart, this Mu family should not have the face to come to the Ye family, why did Mrs. Weiyuan Hou come so arrogantly, as if she was nothing?
Mrs. Weiyuan Hou couldn't bear it anymore after drinking two sips of tea, put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Miss Tang is also thirteen this year, right?" ”
Ye Mushi was even more puzzled, this Mrs. Weiyuan Hou didn't even save greetings, and she asked such an unobtrusive question as soon as she came up?
She smiled copistically: "Yes, it's just thirteen this year." ”
Mrs. Weiyuan Hou wondered in her heart that Ye Mu's attitude was calm, it is said that a family with a boy asked the age of a girl from a family with a girl, doesn't this imply that she wants to propose? Why is Ye Mushi still so salty?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Weiyuan Hou was a little more anxious, thought about it and said: "Mingcheng is also sixteen this year, alas, I originally had the intention to give him a marriage this year, but I didn't expect that there was another Lingyang incident, but now Mingcheng has dragged it down, how can I, a mother, not be suspenseful?" ”
Speaking of this, Ye Mushi also understood that Mrs. Weiyuan Hou wanted to propose marriage.
Although she understood, she couldn't help sneering in her heart, saying that feng shui takes turns, at the beginning, she wanted to marry Ye Tanghua to Mu Mingcheng, but Mrs. Weiyuan Hou was not happy, but now? Ye Tanghua is the Shangyuan Oiran, the county lord of Qingshang, holding the phoenix ring in his hand, but Mu Mingcheng is a scholar who is not high or low, how can these two people be compatible? Even if the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion rushes to stammer, she doesn't want to!
The Queen Mother once said that she wanted her Tang'er to be the crown princess, but she had a water in her brain, so it was not appropriate for Tang'er to let the princess go, but to be the third daughter-in-law of the Hou Ye? Isn't this a mistake in Tang'er's life?
Therefore, Ye Mushi deliberately pretended to be confused, and nodded with a smile: "Yes, when it comes to Mingcheng's age, it is indeed time to start a family, and my sister-in-law must make plans early." ”
Isn't that what I'm here to do?
Mrs. Weiyuan Hou almost shouted, but she finally held back, gritted her teeth and smiled: "This is natural, the plan is to be planned early, but Ning'er, you are thirteen years old, don't you plan for her?" ”
Ye Mushi was stunned and looked at Mrs. Weiyuan Hou in surprise: "Didn't you tell the old lady before your sister-in-law came out?" ”
Mrs. Weiyuan Hou was also stunned, and nodded blankly. Although she really didn't tell Mrs. Mu, how did Ye Mu know? Aren't they talking about the marriage of their two children? Why did Ye Mushi get here again?
Ye Mu nodded clearly, and secretly laughed in his heart that Mrs. Weiyuanhou was really smart, if Mrs. Mu knew what Mrs. Weiyuanhou was doing, she would never let her out, but Mrs. Weiyuanhou sneaked out smartly, this is to find her own death.
Ye Mushi thought that she had seen through the purpose of Mrs. Weiyuan Hou, and this thought ran away: At the beginning, Mrs. Mu always thought that she didn't know the Queen Mother's instructions, so she could take revenge on the Mu family, and now Mrs. Weiyuan Hou said this kind of thing again, did she also think that she didn't know what the Queen Mother meant, and wanted to set Ye Tanghua in front of the royal family, so that the Queen Mother couldn't, so she could only choose Mu Qianlan?
It must be so! No wonder Mrs. Weiyuan Hou is so excited, even exempt from politeness, as soon as she enters the door, she goes straight to the point, and her tone is not as disapproving and absent-minded as when she mentioned Ye Tanghua and Mu Mingcheng before, but complacent, once this family matter is negotiated, Mrs. Weiyuan Hou is equivalent to having a county lord's daughter-in-law and a princess's daughter, it is really killing two birds with one stone! It's a pity, although this abacus is played well, it is calculated on her Tang'er, dare to calculate Tang'er again and again, the Mu family is really too deceitful!
Here Ye Mushi is secretly angry, and Mrs. Weiyuan Hou over there still doesn't know what to do, and she is full of hope that Ye Mushi can follow her words and push the boat down the river to settle the family affairs of the two children, so that Mu Mingcheng's wife has a settlement, and all the problems she encounters can be solved...... It's really all ready, I just owe Ye Mu a nod!
Mrs. Weiyuanhou played a good abacus, but she didn't know that she had touched Ye Mu's reverse scales, Ye Mu's family was already resentful because of the Mu family's calculation of Ye Tanghua, and now Mrs. Weiyuanhou accidentally added fuel to the fire, and forcibly made the dark fire that Ye Mu's original hidden in her heart out of control.
She sneered, lowered her head and hid her expression: "It's not enough for my sister-in-law to say this, right?" Mingcheng's marriage, how to listen to the old lady's opinion. ”
"This may not be, the words of the matchmaker of my parents, I am Mingcheng's mother, what can I not do? Besides, there is Concubine De in the palace to take care of her, it's a big deal to let Niangniang be the matchmaker, as long as Ning'er nods, I will definitely give the Ye family enough face. Mrs. Weiyuan Hou only thought that Ye Mushi understood her words, and couldn't help but say eagerly.
"Okay, in that case, sister-in-law will write a letter to Concubine De in the palace, in fact, Concubine Guangde's matchmaking is not satisfactory, if you can get the queen mother's marriage, it is the best, decent, it's always not too much." Ye Mu's eyes were slightly cold.
Mrs. Weiyuan Hou was immersed in her own fantasies, where could she see Ye Mu's thoughts, and immediately called people to bring paper and pencils, and immediately wrote two letters, one to Concubine De, asking her to be a matchmaker for Mu Ye's two families, and one to the Queen Mother, asking her to marry Mu Mingcheng and Ye Tanghua, the letter was written, Ye Mushi immediately called someone to come, and asked someone to send it to the palace quickly in the name of Mrs. Weiyuan Hou.
At this time, the Mu family had just received the news of Concubine De's downfall.
Old Lady Mu looked at the little eunuch who came to pass the word in front of her, and felt that this matter was too coincidental, as soon as she started to do it here, the head concubine in the palace collapsed? This is simply wanting to ignite the fire, and there is a gust of east wind - she didn't do anything to Mrs. Weiyuan Hou at the beginning, she was just worried about the face of Concubine De in the palace, although the Gu family lost power, Concubine De was not a decoration, but now that Concubine De has fallen, Gu Liangcai has been exiled, and there is only one Mrs. Weiyuan Hou left in the Gu family, what else can't be moved?
Old Mrs. Mu smiled coldly, and she rewarded the little eunuch Yinzi and ordered him to go by himself, beckoning over to report that Mrs. Weiyuan Hou had gone out: "When is this time, Mrs. Hou still has the heart to go out!" Where did it go? Go get someone back! ”
The old woman thought about it for a while and said, "When Mrs. Hou was leaving, she seemed to be in a trance and said that she was going to the Ye family. ”
Old Mrs. Mu was stunned: "Ye family, which Ye family?" ”
The old woman smiled: "Which Ye family is there in Beijing?" Naturally, it is the Ye family that the eldest lady married......"
Before she finished speaking, Old Lady Mu's face had turned from green to white, her eyes widened, and she said angrily: "Who asked her to go to the Ye family, what is she doing at the Ye family?!" Come on, come on, call her back to me! ”
At the beginning, she was afraid that Mrs. Weiyuan Hou would make a mistake, and she took risks to attack Ye Tanghua for the position of Mu Qianlan's crown princess, so she concealed Mrs. Weiyuanhou's intentions, and now she can guess Mrs. Weiyuanhou's plan with her eyes closed! Mrs. Weiyuan Hou needs to take out 10,000 taels of silver at once, such a large amount of silver, no one can turn it around for a while, and Mu Cunning's dowry is very rich, Mrs. Weiyuan Hou must have put her idea on other people's dowry!
This stupid woman!
Mrs. Mu covered her chest, so angry that her heart hurt, what kind of sin did the Mu family create, marrying such a troublemaker? Not to mention that the Mu family may rely on the Ye family in the future, even if it only depends on the affection of relatives, Mrs. Weiyuan Hou can't beat Mu Cunning's idea of dowry! The sister-in-law in charge of the family stretched out her hand to the dowry of the married sister-in-law, what kind of words is this!
Now I can only hope that Mrs. Weiyuan Hou still has a little bit of face, don't say her purpose so quickly, only with such a thing can there be room for a turn......
Old Lady Mu was troubled, but she was suddenly shocked, since Mrs. Weiyuan didn't know what the Queen Mother meant, what way did she plan to approach the Ye family, so as to get involved in Mu Cunning's dowry?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Mu's eyes widened more and more, and finally she rolled her eyes and passed out......
