Chapter 302: Did He Offend You Before?
This autumn rain has been falling for several days, and every day, Jiang Yunfei will send people to deliver all kinds of snacks.
Yueqing saw it all, but she didn't ask Huarong.
The county lord is now a free body, no matter who it is, as long as it is good to the county lord.
The flower is fast, and I took advantage of the hard work of the past few days to make a winter coat and start to make a big coat again.
After the sky cleared, Hua Rong received Lou Yao's post.
She celebrated her birthday the day after tomorrow and invited Hua Rong to dinner.
Jiang Yunlan is Lou Yao's cousin, Lou Yao's birthday she is most likely going to go, Hua Rong didn't want to meet her, she wanted to refuse, but the maid who came to deliver the letter said: "The gift given by the county lord before was too valuable, my young lady has always felt that she couldn't go, and the day after tomorrow she will personally cook to entertain the county lord, if the county lord doesn't come, the young lady will definitely be very sad, and the young lady still has something to say to the county lord." ”
The maid follows the master, eating and drinking on weekdays is fatter than Lou Yao, and her appearance is simple, looking at the flowers pitifully at this time, it is really difficult to refuse.
Hua Rong had no choice but to let Yueqing accept the invitation.
After the maid left, Yueqing looked at Hua Rong with an embarrassed face, and Hua Rong was puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”
"The county lord asked the slave maid to send a lot of valuable gifts to Lou's house before, what should Miss Lou give on her birthday this time?"
If you send it lightly, I am afraid that the moon will fall into the tongue, but if it is sent too heavy, it will look a little like a big wrong.
Hua Rong didn't care, and said lightly: "I remember that there are still a lot of jewelry in the warehouse, just pick some later, don't be too ostentatious." ”
"Yes."
——
On the day of the birthday banquet, Hua Rong got up early in the morning, and when she arrived at Lou's house, Jiang Yunlan had already arrived.
Lou Yao was playing with the child, and when she saw Hua Rong, she immediately greeted her happily: "County Lord, you are here." ”
Lou Yao grabbed Hua Rong and looked her up and down carefully, making sure that Hua Rong was fine, so she breathed a sigh of relief and kept muttering: "I heard that the county lord was back, so I wanted to come to visit, but my father and mother said that it was not safe outside, and they wanted to marry me off quickly, and I was not allowed to go out." ”
Speaking of marriage, Lou Yao's expression became depressed.
Hua Rong didn't hear that she was engaged, and was about to ask the Lou family which family she looked at, Jiang Yunlan spoke: "Ah Yao let go, although the county lord is approachable, you can't be without rules." ”
Jiang Yunlan's tone was quite serious, Lou Yao let go of her hand and looked at Jiang Yunlan pleadingly: "Sister Lan, I haven't been out for too long, I was a little too happy just now, don't tell my father and mother, I have memorized all the rules I have learned recently." ”..
Jiang Yunlan pulled Lou Yao behind her and saluted Hua Rong before speaking: "Ah Yao didn't have too many constraints at home before, so she was still a child, but now that she is in Beijing, many rules have to be learned, otherwise she may have some kind of trouble in the future, and the county lord should not indulge her too much." ”
This is a raw point, and it also implies that Hua Rong is harming her if she doesn't talk to Lou Yao about the rules.
Hua Rong's expression did not change, and she bowed her head and said: "What Madam said is true, but this is a family matter of the Lou family, and it is better for me not to intervene as an outsider." ”
Hua Rong finished speaking, find a place to sit down.
With Jiang Yunlan here, Lou Yao was inconvenient to talk to Hua Rong, so she sat for a while and went to the kitchen.
After a while, the little maid who had delivered the post before served the pastry.
By the action of putting the pastries, the little maid whispered to Hua Rong: "County Lord, my young lady is waiting for you outside." ”
Jiang Yunlan didn't mean to talk to Hua Rong, and sat a little far away from her, and didn't hear the little maid speak.
When the little maid retreated, Hua Rong slowly ate a pastry and drank two cups of tea, and then excused herself to go to the thatched house.
Out of the yard, the little maid was really waiting outside.
Hua Rong followed the little maid to the garden, and saw Lou Yao hiding behind the rockery with an anxious face from a distance.
"What's going on?"
Hua Rong walked over and asked, Lou Yao grabbed her arm, and said aggrievedly: "Daddy wants to marry me to Jiang Yunyang, I don't want to marry, can the county lord help me think of a way?" ”
Lou Yao said with a crying tone, looking quite reluctant.
Hua Rong was very surprised, Lou Yao had a simple temperament, and the Lou family also doted on her, Hua Rong thought that the Lou family would look at Lang Jun, who was not high but had a gentle temperament, but she didn't expect it to be Jiang Yunyang.
But Jiang Yunyang doesn't seem to be a master who will be manipulated by others, whether he is or before, if he doesn't agree, he will definitely not have this marriage.
Thinking of this, Hua Rong asked, "Who proposed this marriage?" ”
Lou Yao's face turned red all of a sudden, and he puffed out his cheeks and said: "My father and mother have already helped me look at a Lang Jun, who knew that bastard would intervene sideways, and suddenly find a matchmaker to come to the door to propose marriage, and he also secretly went to intimidate that Lang Jun, talking nonsense and ruining my reputation, so I don't want to marry him!" ”
It turned out that Jiang Yunyang took the initiative to find someone to come to the door to mention his relatives, so I am afraid that this marriage will not be able to hide.
Hua Rong had already expected the result, and said tentatively: "Since the second young master is willing to find someone to propose marriage, it means that he likes you, why do you hate him so much?" ”
"He's just a shameless scoundrel, I won't like him!"
Lou Yao blurted out, and her face became even redder.
Hua Rong thought of what happened on the mountain before, and asked keenly: "Did he do anything to you on the mountain that day?" ”
"No," Lou Yao denied it urgently, not wanting to mention the incident of that day, and asked Hua Rong without giving up, "County Lord, is there a way you can help me get out of the marriage?" ”
The Lou family didn't want to take the initiative to climb the high branches, but Jiang Yunyang took the initiative to come to the door to propose marriage, and they didn't want to refuse, although the door of Uncle Zhongyong's mansion was high, with Lou's aunt taking care of him in the mansion, Lou Yao couldn't suffer a loss, and now Jiang Yunfei and Jiang Yunhua are not married, if Lou Yao leads Mr. to the Jiang family's grandson, the life in the mansion will not be sad.
Even Hua Rong, an outsider, can see that this marriage is very good for Lou Yao.
However, Lou Yao was so reluctant, and reluctantly got married, maybe she and Jiang Yunyang would become a resentful couple in the future.
Hua Rong thought for a while and said: "Since ancient times, the major event of marriage has been the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, if you forcibly withdraw from the marriage, you will inevitably offend Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion and Second Young Master Jiang, and your brother's career may be affected." ”
Lou Yao bit her lip, her eyes turned red.
She just wants to annul this marriage, and she doesn't want to affect her family.
"But it's not completely impossible," Hua Rong's words turned, Lou Yao's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at Hua Rong eagerly, "You can find a way to make Second Young Master Jiang annoyed, as long as he doesn't like you, he will naturally take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, but that will also have some impact on your reputation." ”
"I'm not afraid," Lou Yao was very firm, "As long as I can not marry him, it doesn't matter if my reputation is bad." ”
Hua Rong helped Lou Yao come up with some strategies before leaving.
Not far after going out, he met Jiang Yunfei.
Hua Rong was a little weak-hearted, and silently prayed that Jiang Yunfei hadn't heard the conversation she had just had with Lou Yao, but the next moment she heard him ask, "Did Yun Yang offend you before?" ”
