Chapter 170: Sisters

Outside the Chongzheng Palace, on the viewing platform.

Hearing Empress Cao ask about the family affairs of Wei Chen, the new champion, the official files present couldn't help but secretly speculate that Empress Cao intended to marry Wei Chen.

For a while, the minds of several ladies who still had school-age daughters waiting for the boudoir were alive.

Wang Ruofu stood beside Mrs. Sheng and witnessed with her own eyes what a scenery Wei Chen was at today's ceremony.

She already understood at this moment that with Wei Chen's background of six yuan and the first rank, coupled with the honor she received, if Empress Cao really wanted to marry Wei Chen, the woman would either be a noble daughter of the clan or from the family of the ministers of Zaifu.

As for the Sheng family, I'm afraid it won't be in Queen Cao's consideration at all.

"If only I had settled the family affair with Wei Chen." These days, whenever Wang Ruofu thinks about this, he is extremely annoyed.

And standing on the viewing platform at this moment, seeing the eyes of the wealthy wives around him staring at Wei Chen, the chagrin in Wang Ruofu's heart increased several times.

I think that when Wei Chen first visited the Sheng family, he had not yet participated in the township test, at most he was a promising young talent, and the Sheng family took the initiative to marry him, which can be regarded as Wei Chen's high climb.

But now, on the contrary, the Sheng family is not worthy of Wei Chen, and it is too late to regret it!

Of course, this also can't complain about Wang Ruofu's short-sightedness. As the saying goes, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, who would have thought that Wei Chen would only take five years to jump from a humble country Mengtong to a beautiful Liuyuanlang?

"Don't stand stupidly, it's not easy to enter the palace, and don't you take your daughter to see the queen?"

Just when Wang Ruofu's heart was not belonging, the old lady Sheng in front of her suddenly glanced back at her daughter-in-law and reminded.

"Yes, Mother."

Wang Ruofu came back to her senses and hurriedly responded, but when she looked up at the official scrolls around Queen Cao, she retreated in her heart.

The person who can talk to Queen Cao at this time is either the princess and the county lord, or the lady of the decree, Wang Ruofu, the official file of a five-grade petty official, is really embarrassed to go up.

Mrs. Sheng saw that her daughter-in-law was stunned, and immediately understood what she was thinking, after all, this was the first time Wang Ruofu had entered the palace, and it was normal to have scruples, and Mrs. Sheng could also understand her.

Old Lady Sheng leaned back, making herself closer to Wang Ruofu, then raised her chin, looked in the direction where Empress Cao was, and said in a low voice: "Take a closer look, are those officials who are talking to the queen mother are quietly pushing their daughters towards the queen mother, do you think, what do they do this for?" ”

Wang Ruofu was stunned, and then replied weakly: "Naturally, for the sake of the marriage that the queen mother said before, they all hope that their daughter can enter the eyes of the queen mother." ”

"What about you, do you want to?"

"Naturally, I thought about it, but ......"

"How can there be so many! If you want to, do it. Even if it doesn't work, you won't be able to drop two taels of meat if you try it. ”

Old Lady Sheng looked at Wang Ruofu and said solemnly: "You should ask yourself, is your daughter's lifelong event important, or is your face important for a while?" ”

Listening to Mrs. Sheng's words, Wang Ruofu was ashamed of herself, and said: "Naturally, it is important for my daughter's life. ”

"That's right."

Seeing that Wang Ruofu had opened her mind, Mrs. Sheng also slowed down her tone at this time, gently stroked the back of Wang Ruofu's hand, and patiently persuaded: "You are also the daughter of a dignified and first-class person, just say a few words to the queen, relax, there is nothing to fear." Even if something goes wrong with you, it's a big deal that I'll show this old face and carry it for you! ”

"Yes, my father deserves to enjoy the Taimiao, and my father deserves to enjoy the Taimiao......" Wang Ruofu muttered in a low voice, his eyes gradually brightened, and finally he mustered up the courage to fight in front of Queen Cao even if it was for his daughter's lifelong event.

But as soon as he made up his mind, when he turned around and saw the three orchids looking behind him, Wang Ruofu didn't know what to do, and looked at Mrs. Sheng with an embarrassed face: "Mother......"

Old Lady Sheng said in a low tone: "Let Ru'er go with you, Mo'er and Ming'er will stay here and talk to my old woman." ”

Hearing the old lady's words, Wang Ruofu breathed a sigh of relief, and beckoned to Rulan to say, "Let's go, come with me to see the queen." ”

The three Lan were standing behind Mrs. Sheng and Wang Ruofu just now, and naturally heard their conversation, after Rulan was pointed by Wang Ruofu, she was a little dazed at first, and then subconsciously looked at Minglan beside her.

Minglan obviously understood the meaning of her grandmother and mother's words, and lowered her head with a dark expression.

Seeing this, Rulan was immediately at a loss.

She and Minglan have long been close friends who talk about everything, and naturally know that Minglan is the same as herself, and her heart has long been tied to Wei Chen's body.

The situation at this moment made Rulan feel ashamed of betraying her sisters, and she had the heart to explain a few words to Minglan but her mouth opened and opened, but she couldn't spit out a word.

On the contrary, Minglan recovered first, took a deep breath, the corners of her mouth turned up, showed a bright smile towards Minglan, and then gently pushed Rulan: "Fifth sister, go quickly, mother is still waiting for you!" ”

Rulan staggered to Wang Ruofu's side, followed a few steps forward and turned back unconsciously, but saw Minglan standing in place, smiling and waving to herself.

Seeing this scene, Rulan Hu's nose was sore, and she almost burst into tears, she stopped at the moment, pulled the corner of Wang Ruofu's clothes and begged in a low voice: "Mother, can we take our sixth sister with us?" ”

Wang Ruofu frowned slightly when she heard this: "Didn't your grandmother say it, let Minglan stay and talk to her, you just follow me." ”

Rulan struggled for a moment on her face, and finally made up her mind, and said in a low voice: "Mother, if I still don't go, you know, my daughter and I have been clumsy, if I lose my manners in front of the queen, won't I lose the face of our whole family?" Let the sixth sister go with you, she was raised in front of her grandmother, she is both smart and knowledgeable, and she will definitely please the queen. ”

Wang Ruofu glared at Rulan viciously: "What kind of frustrating words did you say! You are my daughter-in-law, can't you be raised by a little mother? If you want to go, you will go, where is so much nonsense! ”

After speaking, Wang Ruofu didn't care whether Rulan wanted it or not, so he grabbed Rulan's hand and dragged her towards Queen Cao's phoenix seat.

Behind the two, the three grandparents and grandchildren who stayed behind had their own concerns and were relatively speechless.

Why did Wang Ruofu only take Rulan there, but left Mo Lan and Minglan behind, and the three of them were like mirrors in their hearts.

There is a difference, the reason is as simple as that.

It's just that I know that Mo Lan is still full of grievances, scolding Mrs. Sheng and Wang Ruofu for being unfair in her heart, and her envy, jealousy and hatred for Rulan are almost written on her face.

However, as soon as he turned his head and saw Minglan gritting her teeth and holding back her tears, forcing her face to laugh, Mo Lan's mood suddenly improved a lot, and she even gloated a little.

What's wrong with being good-looking, what's wrong with raising it in Shou'an Hall since childhood, what's wrong with Wei Chen being cousins, it's not the same as me!
