108. The little story of the jade pendant
Dong Fu's words entered the old lady's heart for no reason: "This, doesn't it mean that everyone heard the shouting? But now I don't see the box that the Wei family brought to the door, right?" This is subconsciously agreeing with Dong Fu's words that his granddaughter and foreign man have an affair in private.
Hua Liancheng's complexion is not good.
Zhang poured Huo vegetable soup for her at the old lady's side and shook her head.
The old lady knew that she had said the wrong thing again, and sighed.
At this time, the housekeeper came to report: "General Wei Ling is visiting."
The old lady folded her hands upward: "God bless, the gods and Buddhas are above, it can be regarded as coming."
Dong Fu's expression was very complicated, blue and red for a while, but he still couldn't help but look outside the hall.
Prince Xufeng is really here.
The young general's bearing is extraordinary, from the first time he came to the door to today, the number of times he has come is not small, but today's purpose is that everyone's hearts are clear.
Chu Xia originally liked this bright and heroic promising young man very much for the sake of Hongying***, but now he thinks that he may have already taken a fancy to his baby daughter.
He is only fifteen years old, and he is still a month away, it seems that this Wei Ling is not serious enough, as a father, Chu Xia is angry and refuses to get up to greet him.
Chu Qiu understood that his eldest brother had drilled the tip of the horns again, and he got up and went to the door to greet him, with an attitude that was neither humble nor arrogant.
Wei Ling entered the middle hall, sat down, couldn't help but glance at Chu Xujun, then looked at his nose and heart, and let others look at him.
In the end, the old lady couldn't hold her breath and asked, "General Wei, the old man is such a granddaughter of a close relative, what you shouted today can be counted?" new
Wei Ling got up and made a gesture: "Naturally count. I came here today because I had something to explain. If this happens, the matchmaker will come to the door."
The old lady shook her head full of gold, "You say, you say."
Wei Ling: "When my eldest father was dying, he gave me a token, saying that he owed a great favor to others when he was young, and agreed to repay it with a marriage contract between juniors. It's just that until the death of the eldest father, no benefactor or their descendants were found. The only regrettable thing in my father's life is entrusted to my later life."
Old lady: "This is the reason why the general has not talked to each other for many years?"
Dong Fu looked at it when he heard this.
This question was asked without measure, Wei Ling just smiled: "A few days ago, Wei finally found the token. It's on the eldest lady of the Chu family."
He looked at Chu Xujun, and the two of them respectively picked up the white jade pendant on their waists.
Wei Ling stepped forward, and Chu Xujun untied the phoenix pendant and handed it to him.
The two were combined into one and presented to everyone present for circulation.
The old lady took it: "Ah Li, you see, it's really a couple. Ouch, that's a good thing, crystal clear."
After Chu Qiu took it, he passed it to Chu Xia.
Chu Xia just glanced at it, didn't take it with both hands, Hua Liancheng took it, looked at it a few times, and then passed it to Lu Qinqin and Dong Fu who were in a hurry.
The old lady: "Dare to love General Wei and Mi Mi, this is a good marriage sent by God. That's great."
Zhang smiled on the side.
The atmosphere is harmonious, the son of Xufeng is both civil and military, his appearance is outstanding, and he is a first-class good son-in-law in all aspects.
The old lady hadn't seen his dowry yet, and she also knew that with Linlang Wei's family background, maybe it was no worse than the Zhenwang Mansion. Besides, such a handsome man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes stood in front of him, and the old lady looked at it twice, and she felt that she was a lot younger, where was there anything unhappy?
Chu Qiu was glad that he had already seen Wei Ling's intentions, but Zhao Xin, the prince of the Zhen Palace, had a marriage contract in front of him, and it was difficult for him to defend Ling and fight with the main family, so he gave up this marriage. I didn't see him for a few days before I saw it, Chu Qiu was quite sorry for his selfishness, and now he is naturally happy to see it.
Chu Xia was still not happy, but now his eyes basically fell on the red tassel that Wei Ling placed next to the case not far from him***, and when he saw this *** up close, he was even more domineering, and he really wanted to touch it with his own hands......
Hua Liancheng just glanced at his daughter thoughtfully.
Dong Fu screamed, "No, it's not true. I have never seen Chu Xujun wear this jade pendant
It can't be hers."
Lu Qinqin held down her daughter, looked at Wei Ling's unkind eyes, and said busily: "Fu'er, this jade pendant is so precious, your cousin naturally won't take it out easily, and she will definitely keep it well, it's not strange that you didn't see it."
Dong Fu shook his head: "No, I've seen everything I should have seen......
That's not it, this is a thief who will break into Youyu Pavilion and rummage through things and take it himself.
Chu Xujun: "What does Cousin Fu'er mean? I've been keeping this jade pendant, how can you see it?"
Seeing Chu Xujun's eyes, Dong Fu couldn't help but shudder, yes, she still had the handle to steal things in her hands.
Can...... This jade pendant must not be Chu Xujun, she knows it, Dong Fu rushed to Wei Ling's side: "Prince Xufeng, this jade pendant is not Chu Xujun's, you were deceived by her, you believe me, I know."
Wei Ling: ...... Of course I know that this jade pendant is what I gave to Xujun.
Wei Ling's face was embarrassed: "Dong Niangzi, if you say this, do you know who the jade pendant is?"
Dong Fu hadn't reacted yet.
Lu Qinqin's thoughts came around, Wei Ling's family only recognized the jade pendant, since it was on Chu Xujun, it was passed on to her. But since no one knows about the older generation, if the old lady wants to insist that it is the Dong family, it is not impossible to leave it to Dong Fu.
She rolled her eyes and pretended to be surprised: "In this case, I have been in the Chu family for so many years, and I have indeed never seen this jade pendant. But in the Dong family before, I seemed to have seen something similar. Could it be that an elder left it to you in private, and none of us know the reason?"
Lu Qinqin said this by looking at the old lady.
The old lady didn't react yet, but Zhang could see that this little widow was cheeky and wanted to grab this top family affair for her daughter, she said to the old lady: "These two ladies are joking, how could they hide such a good piece of jade in the family before, I'm afraid they will be replaced with flour buns and eaten and wiped clean."
The old lady knew that her best friend would not cheat herself, so she laughed along, otherwise she would fall into the eyes of the little widow again.
"I know." Hua Liancheng got up, her eyes looked at Wei Ling, "Aunt Jun, Prince Xufeng, this jade is one of my dowries."
As soon as Hua Liancheng spoke, Lu Qinqin knew that his abacus was about to fall through again.
"At the beginning, when my grandmother handed it to me, she only said that this piece of jade should be passed on to women and not to men, so don't show it to others. I recently sorted out the warehouse and found it, and I immediately gave it to her when I saw it. Today, we finally know why. It's also a coincidence that this jade pendant has to see the light of day and become one. I would also be glad to think that my grandmother was in the heavenly spirit."
Hua Liancheng's eyes stared at Lu Qinqin, as if asking: Are you also pleased?
Chu Xujun listened to the little story of his cheap grandmother and came as soon as he opened his mouth, and glanced at Wei Ling.
Wei Ling thought to himself that he might have a handle in the hands of his aunt (mother-in-law).
