Chapter 112: Refusal
After the mighty marquis finished speaking, and seeing the gratitude on Chu Tiankuo's face, he brushed his beard with satisfaction.
Although he didn't become a relative, he naturally wanted to show kindness to his heart. Otherwise, it will be a marriage that will not turn into a feud.
Thinking of the wind in his wife's ears recently, he secretly said in his heart, this woman is really shallow.
Weiwu Hou took another sip of tea, turned to Chu Tiankuo lovingly and asked, "Which family is your Yue family that has not passed through the door?" I don't know if I'm familiar with it? ”
Chu Tiankuo opened his mouth, and was about to answer when the soldiers guarding the study outside the door came to report, "Master Hou, Madame sent someone over and said that there was something to ask to see." ”
So, Chu Tiankuo stopped talking.
In his heart, he secretly snorted coldly----- This mighty lady is really not wasting time. In the barracks, he dismissed her on the grounds that he was too busy with military affairs to come to the Hou Mansion.
As a result, today he only stepped into the gate of the Hou Mansion with his front foot, and the mighty Mrs. Hou with his back foot asked people to look for him. He didn't think that Madame had come to find Hou Ye for something.
What is the important thing that you have to say when you meet a guest?
Although the mighty marquis does not know why. However, I also feel a little unhappy to be disturbed when I meet a guest.
However, in front of outsiders, he couldn't destroy the face of Mrs. Weiwuhou. So, frown, let people come in and talk back.
I saw a delicately dressed big girl, and she walked into the study with a lot of color.
She first saluted the mighty marquis, and then saluted Chu Tiankuo.
After saluting, she said with a smile: "Master Hou, Madam heard that Vice General Chu has passed the mansion and wants to meet him." ”
"Madame wants to see the sky, what is the matter?" The mighty marquis who was talking about it was disturbed, and when he saw that his wife was a family member in the backyard, but he wanted to see the people in the front yard, he asked with a face that was a little unhappy.
After all, the big girl is a lady in the house, and she is also a little scared when she sees Hou Ye's face. Hurriedly lowered her head and replied, "Madame wants to talk to Vice General Chu about the family affair with Miss Zhu Biao." ”
Weiwuhou frowned, and said unhappily: "Didn't I say last time, Tiankuo is not suitable for the girl of the Zhu family, let the lady choose another family for the girl of the Zhu family?" ”
The big girl lowered her eyebrows and didn't answer.
When the mighty marquis saw it, he frowned and said, "Forget it, I'll take Tiankuo to the backyard to tell Madame." It's just right, let's talk about the great joy of the sky. ”
After speaking, he took Chu Tiankuo and walked out of the door.
The big girl wanted to speak and stopped. As a result, when he saw that the mighty marquis didn't pay attention to her at all, he had to turn around and trot briskly to follow.
Chu Tiankuo saw the girl's expression. However, when he saw the mighty marquis walking forward with his head down, he didn't say anything and followed behind the mighty marquis.
When he arrived at the main room of Mrs. Mighty Marquis in the backyard, Chu Tiankuo understood why the maid wanted to stop talking.
It turned out that not only Mrs. Weiwuhou was in the main room, but also Miss Zhu Biao.
After she saw the mighty marquis, she hurriedly saluted. When he saw Chu Tiankuo also come in, he raised his head, glanced at him with a bright eye, and then saluted delicately and said, "I've seen Brother Chu." ”
After Chu Tiankuo bowed his head and returned the salute silently, he stood aside.
That Miss Zhu Biao threw a few flattering glances, and when she saw that Chu Tiankuo had been looking down, she was secretly annoyed. Seeing Mrs. Weiwuhou signaling her to leave, Shi Shiran had to pace and avoid the inner room behind the screen.
"Why is Master Hou here?" Lady Zhu asked in surprise.
She thought that she would let the maid directly invite Chu Tiankuo to meet the second girl and settle the family affairs.
Unexpectedly, Hou Ye also followed.
"I heard the maid say, you have to ask Tiankuo and the Zhu family girl about their relatives, didn't you refuse last time? Why bother? ”
The mighty marquis is a typical military general, and when he speaks quickly to his own relatives, he is straightforward and untactful.
"This..." When Mrs. Weiwuhou saw that she was in front of everyone, she was directly said by Weiwuhou to be so faceless, and she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, so she didn't care about it so much.
"It's not that I'm thinking, Vice General Chu can't remember which one the second girl is, so he thinks about it and remembers it when he sees it. No, Vice General Chu changed his mind. ”
Lady Weiwuhou explained with a smile.
The meaning of these words is naturally that he feels that his niece is beautiful, and after seeing it, Chu Tiankuo is willing to marry.
"Thank you, Madame, for your kindness." Chu Tiankuo saw that he had been mentioned, so he saluted and thanked Mrs. Weiwuhou.
Without waiting for Mrs. Weiwu Hou to show a smiling face, he quickly said again: "The last general has already decided on the family matter." Now, the three rites and the letter of appointment have been completed. ”
After saying this, the people heard a 'clang' in the room, as if something had fallen to the ground and shattered.
Mrs. Weiwu Hou was naturally surprised.
She glanced into the inner room a few times, then looked at Chu Tiankuo, and saw that he didn't raise his head. I had to give the big girl a look, and the girl flashed into the inner room.
"When was this happening? I've never heard of Master Hou talk about it. ”
Mrs. Weiwu Hou looked at Wei Wuhou with an unhappy face, and then asked Chu Tiankuo with a smirk.
"It's exactly what happened these days." Chu Tiankuo glanced up at the mighty marquis and continued, "The marriage was agreed to by my father. I've been talking about relatives before. Because it has not been settled, it is not good to say it outside, so as not to insult the girl's reputation. ”
Chu Tiankuo reversed the order of his words slightly, as if his father had talked about family affairs.
The mighty marquis groaned, but didn't say anything.
There was silence in the room for a while. And they heard the low sobs and the sounds of comfort in the inner chamber.
Mrs. Weiwu Hou looked at Chu Tiankuo and saw that he was still unmoved, as if he hadn't heard. looked at Hou Ye's straight face again, and had no choice but to give up.
"In this case, congratulations to Vice General Chu." Mrs. Weiwu Hou said with a faint face.
"Thank you, ma'am." Chu Tiankuo still bowed his head and thanked him.
For a moment, there was silence in the room.
Mrs. Weiwu Hou picked up the teacup and sent the guests off, "Then this will not delay the Hou Ye and Vice General Chu to get down to business." ”
Seeing that the question had been finished, Weiwu Hou took Chu Tiankuo to the front yard.
"Auntie, I don't have the face to see anyone."
As soon as Weiwuhou and Chu Tiankuo left the backyard, Miss Zhu Biao leaned on the shoulders of the big girl from the inner room, covering her face with a handkerchief, and slowly walked to Mrs. Weiwuhou.
"There's nothing to be faceless. It's that rough man who is not blessed. I'll tell you something else. ”
Lady Weiwuhou comforted a little impatiently.
This second girl is her brother's concubine, because she is beautiful and has a sweet mouth, so she is quite liked by her brother. The younger brother begged him to tell the second girl a good family matter, but this girl fell in love with Vice General Chu.
Thinking of the way this girl showed when she wanted to marry Vice General Chu, she thought that these two people were already in love.
It just so happened that his own marquis said that he wanted to win over Chu Tiankuo so that he could help his son. Therefore, she brought up this family business.
Who knows, people don't care about her at all, they have all decided on their family affairs, which makes her embarrassed.
This Miss Zhu Biao is naturally observant of words and feelings.
Seeing that Mrs. Weiwuhou was unhappy now, she quietly stood aside and didn't dare to say more.
