"That's what Madame said." Chen Junjie smiled good-naturedly, got up and said, "Then let's have dinner together today." ”

"The concubine will go first and arrange it." Su Shi said, looked at Chen Ruzhu again, and said, "You can come with me." ”

"Yes, E-niang." Chen Ruzhu didn't think much about it, and left first with Su.

At this time, Chen Junjie and Mao Mingxuan continued to discuss the chess game just now, but the Su family, who took the first step, was reprimanding Chen Ruzhu.

"Although you are cousins, men and women should also pay attention to their defense."

"E-niang, my daughter just happened to meet me." Chen Ruzhu defended in a low voice, but her face was red.

"Men and women don't sit at the same table at the age of seven, not to mention that you are both adults." Su Shi said unhappily: "Now that you haven't decided on someone's family, you have to pay more attention!" ”

"E-niang, I know." Chen Ruzhu hurriedly responded.

Su Shi looked at her shy appearance and couldn't help but say, "That kid shouldn't have said anything to you, right?" ”

"E-niang, what do you say? Nothing. We just said a few random words. Chen Ruzhu hurriedly denied it.

But she denied it so eagerly, which made Su Shi more and more suspicious.

"Let me tell you, E-Niang is still going to find you a good family, don't look away! He's just a lifter. Even if you get a jinshi in the next year, you have to start with a sesame petty official. There is no one in the court, and it is very difficult to get up. Look at you, Amma, who is still a fourth-grade official, and I don't know how much effort it took to climb up. Su Shi said earnestly: "Eniang, you and Ruyu's two precious daughters, I am reluctant to let you suffer." Ruyu is now with the prince, and she doesn't have to worry about her future. It's only you, and your husband's family must pick a good one. At least, the other party's family can't be lower than your Ama official position! ”

Chen Ruzhu's face became more and more red, and she whispered: "Eniang, look at what you said!" I didn't really say anything to my cousin. I never thought about it. ”

"I never thought about it!" Su said: "When I said that he wanted to come to live in our house, I didn't feel at ease. I'm afraid that you have no intention of treating him, but he wants to think crookedly. In the future, you'll better avoid me! ”

"Yes, Eniang, my daughter knows." Chen Ruzhu has always been obedient. Although there was a small loss in his heart, he still agreed to Su.

Su Shi saw that his daughter was still obedient, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Mao Mingxuan, this kid is clear and knowledgeable. Girls who are just beginning to fall in love are most likely to be blinded by such a man.

Her family is like a pearl, but she is a child who grew up in the capital, so she should not marry in a small place like Yangzhou!

After lunch in the main courtyard, Mao Mingxuan took his leave.

He is not stupid, Su Shi's defense and dislike, he found out not long after entering the mansion. Just now he and Chen Ruzhu were talking in the pavilion, and as soon as Su Shi came over, his eyes were wrong. It seems that he wants to do something to Chen Ruzhu.

Don't say that he doesn't have this mind at all, if he really has this mind, can the Su clan still be able to prevent it?

However, for Uncle Chen's good, he will not do anything out of line.

When Mao Mingxuan left, Su also sent Chen Ruzhu back to the room to rest, and then said to Chen Junjie: "Master, let's take a nap too." ”

"Madam, do you think that we are Ruzhu and Mingxuan, are they suitable?" Chen Junjie said suddenly.

Su Shi's eyes flashed, and he squeezed out a smile, and said, "What does this mean, master?" ”

"Isn't Madame very smart? Why is this confused? Chen Junjie laughed and said, "Naturally, the two don't match!" Isn't Zhu'er still undecided, and it's not bad if it's kissed. ”

"Are you kidding?" Su said: "Let's not talk about what the eldest sister thinks in her heart. Just say that Xuan, now that he has not yet taken the imperial examination, and his future is uncertain, where will he consider marrying. When he really wins next year, it's hard to say whether he can look down on our daughter. ”

"Even if he won the Jinshi, our daughter can also be worthy! Does he dare to dislike it? Chen Junjie said: "Eldest sister, as long as I open my mouth, I will definitely be able to agree." ”

He felt that he was nine out of ten, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the two children were suitable. In the garden today, seeing Mao Mingxuan talking and laughing with his daughter, he had this idea in his heart.

"Master, don't worry. Let's wait for Mingxuan to talk about it after next spring. Su Shi said: "He came to prepare for the exam." If the master makes him confused and affects next year's Spring Festival, the eldest sister will blame you! ”

"I won't tell him! Naturally, I said it to my eldest sister. Let's write to ask the eldest sister what she means. If it works, let's settle it first. The big wedding can wait for him to talk about it after the spring of next year. Chen Junjie said: "The marriage event is the order of the parents, and the matchmaker's words don't need to ask his opinion at all." ”

Su Shi saw that he couldn't persuade Chen Junjie, so he became anxious. Who knows what Mao Mingxuan's situation will be in the spring next year, so she shouldn't give him her daughter early!

"Let's go to the letter now, but it seems more sincere. We have to wait for Mingxuan to win the Jinshi next year, and let's mention the marriage again, so that the eldest sister has other ideas. Chen Junjie said again.

Su Shi couldn't say if he was suffering, and when he saw Chen Junjie's look of determination, his brain immediately spun quickly.

"Master, don't panic first. Last time, Dali Siqing's wife said that she was going to introduce a good person to our Zhu'er and let me wait for her news. Su Shi said: "I have already agreed." In case you write to the eldest sister and she agrees, and I can't push it off, then it's troublesome. ”

"Really? When was this? Why didn't you hear you? Chen Junjie was stunned.

"It was yesterday. Isn't that too late to talk about it? Su said.

"Oh, that's fine. Look at which one she's talking about? Chen Junjie said: "We Zhu'er can't go to that house, it's too complicated." One of the reasons why I suddenly thought of Mingxuan was because we were relatives, and we were close to each other. The eldest sister and I have a good relationship, and we will not treat Zhu'er badly. Besides, the Mao family still has the rule that only when they are over forty years old can they take concubines without children. ”

"The master is thinking far ahead." Su Shi said.

"Zhu'er is my eldest daughter, and she is different." Chen Junjie said. Compared with the arrogant little daughter, he actually prefers this demure eldest daughter.

Su Shi smiled and did not continue the topic. Now she can drag on one day at a time, but she doesn't want to really marry Chen Ruzhu to Mao Mingxuan.

In the palace, Mao Tongtong fell asleep, looked at the sunny outside, and also had the idea of appreciating the flowers.

This time, she didn't go to the Imperial Garden, but was at the Brother's Office.

Wang's last incident had already taught her a lesson. When you're alone, don't run far. If something happens, I can't say clearly.

Besides, the eighth master is not in the palace. There wasn't even anyone to support her.

Thinking about it like this, she actually began to miss the eighth master.
