Chapter 35: Marriage
Because of the matter of seizing the title, Zi Ning was lifeless in the center. Chen Jiu, who has always liked to be outside, is now depressed at home, and has been drinking for several days to kill his sorrows, but he became drunk and hazy. Mrs. Ma was hateful and angry, plus the little day came again, lying on the bed and unable to move, except for being angry at the girls, she just had nothing to call Chen Yun to scold her and get angry. Lying there at this time, Chen Yun beat her legs, she saw Chen Bing standing in front of the window and was just stunned, and she poured her anger on Chen Yun's head for a while.
"Have you made all the shoes and socks and clothes you made?"
Chen Yun was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he was coming at himself, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "There are too many things in the past few days, and I have to go to the Water Mirror Hall before dawn, and my daughter is not good at staying up late, so I can'......t catch up."
"What's too late, I think you're just thinking about showing off, right?" Chen Bing interrupted her words angrily, then stepped forward to sit down next to her mother, and said angrily, "Mother, it's all because this dead girl can't do needlework, so I can't even get out of the gate of Ziningju!" Otherwise, I can always go to the Dongchang Marquis Mansion to inquire about the news......"
"Don't mention that Dongchang Marquis Mansion!" Mrs. Ma was angry when she heard this, and slammed the bed board, "I wish my mother to be there twice, but I can't even see the main master, and I don't want to think about the strength of Chengjue and our family, seeing that your father lost his title and hid behind, it is simply too deceitful!" ”
Hearing the mother and daughter speak, Chen Yun had already lowered his head knowingly, but he didn't make a sound. At this moment, a girl hurriedly came in, curtched her knees and said, "Madam, the old lady's sister green calyx is here, saying that it is a word for the old lady, and there are guests at home, let the second and fourth ladies go out to meet together." ”
"Guest?"
Without the title in the second room, the Zhu family made Chen Jiu think about it behind closed doors, and the other people in Ziningju naturally did not want to go out. As for the rest of the Hou Mansion...... It is human nature to step on low and high, and seeing that the second room is falling, naturally no one will come here again, so now Mrs. Ma and Chen Bing and Chen Yun sisters in the house don't know what guests are at home. So, looking at each other for a while, Mrs. Ma's face moved, and she asked the girl to go out and tell the green calyx to go in a while, and then stared at the two sisters.
"Hurry back to the room and dress up, change into clothes, pick some delicate heads, and pick two more stable girls to follow. It's rare that the old lady finally let you go to meet the guests, don't be ashamed! Remember, let people see, our second room is not messed up if we lose our title. If you are a nobleman, leave a good impression, and now your marriage is here! ”
When the sisters heard this, they naturally shouldn't be lazy, Chen Yun curtsy and then left the house first, Chen Bing was about to leave, but Mrs. Ma kept her. Telling another henchman in the room to go out and look at the door, she called someone to sit down on the edge of the bed, and then whispered: "What I said just now was just for the fourth girl, you just let her be in the limelight." Now that the old lady is clearly evil to your father, what good thing will think of you? I know this today...... I don't know, a few days ago, the old lady asked Zheng's mother to give a box of noodles to the three girls and five girls, and I forgot about you when I was born! ”
"What!" Chen Bing's originally happy face immediately sank, and then he stood up suddenly, "One has no father and no mother, and the other is raised by an aunt, why did he cross me!" ”
"Okay, stop yelling, what else are you going to do but yell? If you hadn't lost your temper for the first two times, you wouldn't have caught someone! Mrs. Ma pulled her daughter to sit down, and then pointed to a three-layer lacquered sandalwood box on the bed, and then said softly, "The Lantern Festival is the day after tomorrow, no matter what, you must go to the palace." It is easy for people to inquire about it, saying that the princess of Jin can't give birth to a son, and the lady concubine in the palace has a lot of complaints, and she is already planning to choose a second concubine from the famous lady, and it is said that the Lantern Festival will send a female official to palm her eyes. You must be attentive that day, as long as you become a ......"
"Second concubine? Mother, you're crazy, if I really choose, I'll be a dwarf for the rest of my life! ”
Seeing that Chen Bing was angry and anxious, Mrs. Ma suddenly lowered her face and scolded: "What a dwarf, what do you know!" The prince set up a princess, Mrs. Na, this is always the system, this time the concubine is not permanent, only when the princess is not out, or when the grace is noble, will be registered as a second concubine, where is the ordinary side room can be compared? Seeing the princess is just a bow, the rest of the ladies and concubines will bow down when they see you, if you have a son the next day, the king of Jin ascends to the big treasure, this concubine is not sure! Besides, why do you think the old lady is good to the three girls, she doesn't want to send people to the Jin Palace! ”
Chen Bing was finally a little moved, but when she heard Mrs. Ma mention Chen Lan, she suddenly sneered: "She? She is a few months younger than me, although she has a good face, but she has no father or mother, and her body has not grown, and she doesn't look like she can give birth, the old lady is really blind, how can she pick her? ”
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Ma slammed the bed board: "What nonsense, you are a daughter of a boudoir, and you also said this kind of thing?" However, where does the old lady want her to give birth! As long as someone occupies the position of the second concubine, even if it is a temporary one, two, three or four years, it doesn't matter, and that buffer time is enough for Princess Jin to turn around. Bing'er, you're different, you see your father's sluggish appearance right now, I don't have a son, if you can't be angry, our future life will be worse than in the past, but there is a little fourth in the long house! As for the third room, with the presence of Wei Guogong, he may tremble at some point. ”
After some lessons from Mrs. Ma, when Sister Chen Bing and Chen Yun appeared in front of the Tatexiang Courtyard, they surprised the girls. In the past, Chen Bing's flowers and branches were extremely gorgeous, and Chen Yun was like the green leaf that foiled him, but today's situation is reversed. Chen Bing is a lotus silk shirt and willow flower skirt, looking at the plain color, lining the face of thin grease powder, revealing a rare uniformity in the past; Chen Yun is wearing a red cocoon silk face on the frost lining of the shirt, and the brocade skirt under the bottom is embroidered with gold thread with several lifelike golden partridges, and the beads on the head are carefully selected, which is gorgeous and beautiful.
The two sisters went to the main room under the guidance of the girl, Chen Yun looked at Chen Bing's plain dress, and felt a little hairy in his heart, but Chen Bing didn't seem to see her arrogance, and didn't say a word.
It wasn't until they entered the main hall and turned around the curtain that they saw that Chen Lan was already sitting next to Zhu, and Chen Xi on the side was sitting on the third chair in the west, with a crow green jacket, a light blue skirt, plus a hosta and a jade bracelet, which looked refreshing. As soon as Chen Bing saw Chen Xi in such a situation, Fang felt that his mother's guess should be correct, and stepped forward to salute again.
Zhu pointed to them and said, "I've seen your aunt and cousin." ”
Chen Bing and Chen Yun immediately looked sideways, and saw that although Chen and Su Wan'er were still gorgeously dressed, they didn't look like some rich relatives, and they all hesitated for a while before they stepped forward to see them. After saluting, it was found that Chen had not even prepared a greeting ceremony, and the two sisters were even more suspicious. And that's not all, as soon as they sat down, Chen babbled a few bits and pieces of gossip, and then threw out something that made them barely jump.
"Sister-in-law is really blessed, so many grandchildren under my knees, how can I only have these two. These four granddaughters are all golden and jade-like people, and I don't know who can get another one besides our family. ”
Zhu had just been talking to Chen without a match, and he had already noticed that this old woman who was older than him was extremely sharp-tongued, not at all like a person in her early seventies, so shrewd that she was not like words, if she didn't say enough, she had a small family spirit in her bones, as if she was afraid of losing money. It's just that those can also be patient, listening to her say such a sentence at this time, no matter how good her temper is, she can't hold it on her face, not to mention that she is not a good stubble, so she took a deep breath and smiled at Chen Lan.
"Your cousin Wan'er came to our house for the first time, and a few of your sisters took her around to take a look, and it was not in vain to come and walk on such a cold day."
As soon as Chen Yun entered the door, Chen Lan noticed that Chen's gaze suddenly fell on her palatial outfit, and he hardly noticed the others. Therefore, at this moment, Chen's exit was amazing, and she was not surprised at all, she stood up according to Zhu's words, and greeted Su Wan'er and the others with a smile. Chen Bing, Chen Yun and Chen Xi passed through Chen's words, they didn't say it on their faces, but they had their own tastes in their hearts, and they hurriedly covered it up at this time, and a group of people talked and laughed and walked out from behind the battle.
As soon as they left, Zhu Shi removed the smile on his face and asked lightly, "My sister is here for this matter today?" ”
Chen raised the teacup and took a sip, and then said slowly: "Sister-in-law, this is something that was decided by the elder brother many years ago, and now my family is not small, so I naturally have to settle it as soon as possible." If you want to come to the Hou Mansion for a big business, you won't regret your marriage, right? Hou Fu's daughter, you have to give one to our family. ”
