Chapter 316: The Gift
Won't this family look at themselves?
As far as their Xie family is concerned, they can even give birth to Gao Panyu's brother's thoughts?
I really don't know what to say.
She was just afraid that Brother Yu would be troubled, so she just ran like this, since they wanted to humiliate themselves, then she didn't bother to send this kindness.
"The old lady has a point," she suddenly smiled, "Actually, if it weren't for Uncle Chen's displeasure, I wish he could marry earlier, Uncle Chen's uncle has saved my life, and my mother doesn't know how many times I've talked about his family, and if I can really accomplish this good thing, I am also happy in my heart."
Her gaze swept from the old lady's surprised look and fell on Xie Songhua's face, "Actually, I just tried to do it, Uncle Chen's temperament is different from others, he has always been reluctant to marry, and now that his uncle's marriage decree is down, he still has to resist the decree, if it is an ordinary woman, she retreats when she encounters a little difficulty, then it is not worthy of him."
Seeing that the third girl was so firm in her heart for Uncle Chen, I was relieved, and I couldn't complain that my brother praised the third girl so much, and now, even I like it."
This change in attitude really caught everyone off guard, but the look of the county lord Huimin was very natural, and she even sat up straight, bringing two points of seriousness that she hadn't had since she entered the door, "In this way, the gifts prepared for the three girls when they go out can also be used."
The old lady hurriedly said, "The county lord can't help but take this too seriously."
Hui Min smiled disapprerovingly, and beckoned to the maid behind him, and the maid came over with a long box, "Every time Mr. Xi, a master of sword casting in the previous dynasty, casts a new sword, he will destroy the previous one, only before his death, the three swords forged, because it is really difficult to choose, this has been handed down.
Two of these three swords have long been lost with the death of Mr. Xi, and only one "into the soul" is still occasionally heard of its traces, as far as I know, Uncle Chen Wang has also been looking for this soul, I have been searching for many years, and finally found this sword.
I originally wanted to give it to Uncle Chen, but now it seems that it is better to give it to the third girl, and it is better for the third girl to give it away, so that it can also resolve the current embarrassment of Uncle Chenwang and his uncle."
As she spoke, the maid opened the box, and there was indeed a long sword of an ancient style resting in it.
Xie Songhua didn't understand this cold weapon, but this sword had a simple and heavy feeling both in terms of shape and pattern.
But Mrs. Lan was surprised, "It's really a soul!"
Lord Huimin glanced at her, "I didn't expect there to be anyone who knows the goods."
Mrs. Lan said embarrassedly, "My master likes weapons, and he has a lot of sword and sword books in his house, and I often clean up the study for him, and what he talks about the most is Mr. Xi's works, so I know him."
Lord Huimin nodded a little proudly and said, "Any sword taken out by Mr. Xi is enough to arouse the admiration of those weapon lovers, but as long as a man who practices martial arts, there is no one who does not want to get Mr. Xi's works, let alone a rare treasure like 'Soul Entering'."
After she boasted like this, she turned to Xie Songhua, "So, if the third girl can give this sword to Uncle Chen, he must be very happy, so you say, is this gift I gave precious enough?"
Xie Songhua didn't speak, but turned his face to look at the old lady.
Before the old lady could speak, Mrs. Lan on the side smiled and said, "It is said that the sword is worthy of the hero, except for the prince in this world, who do you think can be worthy of this "soul"? Such gifts are considered to complement each other."
Probably under the influence of Lord Lan, Mrs. Lan's gaze at the sword was a little hot, which showed that this thing was really extraordinary.
The old lady also hesitated, and Princess Shuhe said, "Huimin is also for the good of Uncle Wang and the third girl, and now that the holy decree of the father and the emperor has been given, everyone in the capital knows that Princess Chen has made a decision, and as the king of a country, it is always difficult to go back on her word.
But Uncle Chen Wang has such a temper, if he really gets married to his father, it will make both sides look bad on their faces, if the third girl can use this sword to let Uncle Wang
Treating each other differently can be regarded as alleviating the conflict between the father and the emperor, is the third girl still unwilling to do this?"
The words have come to this, can the Xie family still refuse.
What's more, from the old lady's point of view, this is clearly a great thing.
For this marriage, the Xie family is tens of millions of satisfied, although they are also a little worried that Xie Songhua will not be favored by King Chen, and his life may not be comfortable.
But she has already become Princess Chen, how sad can she be if she is uncomfortable?
This is much more stable and decent than becoming a crown princess or a third princess, for a woman, a lifetime of glory and wealth can be guaranteed, what is not satisfied?
At the moment, although Xie Jiaming was calm on his face, King Chen's attitude was not something they could really pretend not to hear by burying their heads in the sand.
If King Chen really made a fuss with the saint to withdraw from the marriage, he would really lose face at that time.
Now that the Lord of Huimin has sent such an opportunity, what reason is there not to seize it?
As for whether the county lord of Huimin is really as upright as she said, this is not a matter in the eyes of the old lady, as long as Xie Songhua takes this thing, she will publicize today's events tomorrow.
If this sword is not sent correctly, it is also Huimin's business, and it has nothing to do with Xie Songhua.
Under the guidance of the old lady's gaze, Xie Songhua had no choice but to order Ding Xiang to step forward and hold the sword over.
The old lady stood up and gave Hui Min a glass of wine, "The county lord trusts me so much, and I really don't know how to be grateful for handing over such a precious thing to our girl, this glass of wine can be regarded as a glass of my respect to the county lord!"
The old lady's grade is not lower than that of Lord Huimin, even if it is Princess Shuhe, if she is faced with such an attitude of the old lady, she should humbly refuse.
However, Hui Min has always been used to being sought after, that is, Queen Zhao and Concubine Gao in the palace have always been full of smiles on her faces, so in the face of the old lady's words, the smile on her face was only faint, and then she casually raised her wine glass and took a sip, and it was considered to be done.
The fire of war brought back by the county lord Huimin was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and it was eliminated in this way, and the Xie family, including the old lady, quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Shuhua was so depressed that she didn't see Xie Songhua embarrassed in public.
However, knowing that King Chen was not satisfied with this marriage, in the end made her feel more comfortable, not to mention, she mainly wanted to find the Qi family today, and it was inconvenient to make extraneous branches.
After lunch, the guests who came came dispersed in twos and threes, but Gao Ying took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention and pulled Xie Songhua to a corner.
Xie Songhua startled her, "Miss Gao?!"
Gao Ying glanced left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention, so he hurriedly asked, "Do you have any news about Chen Liu?"
Xie Songhua was puzzled by this question, "How can I have news of him?"
Seeing the suspicion in her eyes, Xie Songhua said helplessly: "I stay in the inner house every day, how can the news of his foreign man be transmitted to me? Even if he does come to our house, he will naturally be received by his father and brother in the outer court, so what does it have to do with me?"
Seeing that such words had not dispelled Gao Ying's suspicions, Xie Songhua said with a straight face: "Miss Gao, you are also clear about the various rumors some time ago, you don't know how much trouble this has caused to me, right?
Now that I have been given a marriage to King Chen, the news of my affair with a foreign man has spread, do I want to die? Do you think my family would allow me to do this?"
"And how did that Baolin in your family come from?" Gao Ying replied very unceremoniously, leaving Xie Songhua speechless for a while.
No, even if Jiang Shuhua has married into the East Palace, even if the saint uses such a means as marriage to smooth out that matter for the Xie family, in the eyes of outsiders, the Xie family still has some stains on their bodies after all.
When it comes to the critical moment, it can be taken out and criticized.
Xie Songhua's face turned cold, "If Miss Gao wants to ask about this matter, then I have already answered you, there is nothing else, I will leave first, and I will help send a few guests."
Gao Ying knew that she was raw
Angry, he hurriedly said, "Eh, I'll just say it casually, it's just that I haven't heard from him for a long time, and I'm just a little anxious.
He doesn't live in Goldfish Lane anymore, I went to a few places he frequents on weekdays, but I couldn't find anyone, and I asked a few friends he came and went with on weekdays, and they all said they didn't know, so I came to ask you."
Xie Songhua turned to look at Gao Ying in a daze, and didn't know what to say for a while.
Since she crossed over to this place, she only felt that all the women in this world seemed to be bound by an invisible rope, and it was extremely difficult to even go out. Z.br>
Why can Gao Ying like Chen Liu so high-profilely?
Gao Ying seemed to see through her thoughts, and said confidently: "I said a long time ago, I will not marry him in this life, no matter what outsiders say!"
