052 Fueling the fire
Entertainment regardless of age, in a burst of applause, Mu Mengchen's eyebrows flew and danced, raising his eyebrows to look at Chu Liangrao, only to see the latter with big eyes open and unblinking, very focused. Mu Mengchen laughed briskly, took the handkerchief handed by Xiao Zuozi and wiped his hands.
Xiao Zuozi, who is good at looking at the 'color', praised: "Your Highness is really skilled, I'm afraid that no one will be able to throw so much into it." ”
"That's nature." Mu Mengchen looked right, 'Yin' poetry is not good at him, but eating, drinking and having fun is definitely his forte.
After a while, another round of warm applause rang out, and I saw a 'blinded' man casually throwing arrows in his hand, and each one attracted a burst of warm applause. Even if he was 'blindfolded', he still 'exposed' his handsome and 'straight' nose, his full 'lips' were lightly pursed, and his facial lines were extraordinarily resolute.
"Who is this man?" Someone whispered.
Someone who knew the details replied: "Isn't this Huo Xicheng?" ”
Hearing that it was just a ritual, some people who were interested in making 'friends' stopped thinking and were not so enthusiastic when they applauded. Some of the famous 'door' and 'daughter' were even more disappointed, such a good young man was actually just a petty official from the eighth grade, and when he learned this, several business 'women' were 'revealed' with a smile.
After throwing the arrow in his hand, Huo Tainan took off the long belt that was 'blinded' on his eyes, and gave up his position with a slight arch.
Soon, Huo Tainan's brilliance was overshadowed by the official son who was not low in the back, and several of the wives sitting together looked at each other pleasantly, waiting to go home and discuss with the master.
After sitting for a long time, there were not a few people around the Gu family who came to ask the county lord's relatives, and the Gu family only felt bored, and left first without waiting for the banquet to disperse. Chu Liangrao, who came with her, naturally couldn't stay longer, and left with him, this walk took away the hearts of most of the people, and although there was still laughter and laughter at the banquet afterward, it was far less lively than before.
After returning home, Chu Liangrao washed off the fat powder on her face and changed into light clothes and went to see the old lady.
The old lady saw that Chu Liangrao came back so early, guessed in her heart, took Chu Liangrao's hand and said, "In the future, grandmother will take you to the 'door', and I will definitely let you have a good time." ”
"Auntie still likes to stay with her grandmother." Chu Liangrao snuggled on the old lady's shoulder and said, "But if grandmother is willing to take Auntie to open her eyes, Auntie can only be respectful and obey her fate." ”
"You Nizi, you are cheap and good." The old lady patted her on the shoulder lightly and asked Chu Liangrao what fun she saw today.
For the first time, Chu Liangrao thought of the 'blindfolded' and 'straight' figure, and she said with a smile: "It's a lot of fun." ”
The originally plain experience was told by her witty and interesting, and the old lady listened to the excitement, but she also knew that it would never be as easy as Chu Liangrao said. However, since Chu Liangrao reported the good news in front of her and did not report the worries, she didn't want her to worry, and she still had to investigate this matter 'privately'. After Chu Liangrao left, at this time, a little maid walked in and told Chu Liangrao what happened today.
Hearing that Miss Wen had a quarrel with Chu Liangrao, the old lady's brows tightened, and Qin'er couldn't help but ask: "Isn't this Miss Wen engaged to Su Erlang, why is she still unhappy with the county lord." ”
"That's it, since Auntie doesn't want to mention it, let's assume it didn't happen." The old lady let go of her brows and said lightly, "Ah Rao handled it very well, even if outsiders listened to it, they would also say that the county lord of Ning'an behaved properly." ”
"In previous years, the princess came back after dinner, but now it's weird, and she came back before she went."
The old lady snorted lightly and said: "If it is not her flesh and bones, she doesn't need to worry, she doesn't look like she is in charge at all, Mother Qiu, go and call the princess over to me." ”
Qiu's mother has been following the old lady for the longest time, and she is honest and old-fashioned, at this time, when she heard the old lady say this, she naturally wanted to persuade her: "Presumably the princess also has urgent things to do, if you go to the princess at this time, it will not be very good for the county lord......"
Hearing this, the old lady's heart also calmed down a little, indeed, Chu Liangrao just went out of her yard, if she found the Gu family to ask questions at this time, it would only make people think that Chu Liangrao was 'messing' right and wrong in front of her. Chu Liangrao's forbearance is not just to avoid this misunderstanding.
But if Chu Liangrao's matter was delayed for this reason, the old lady couldn't sit still.
In the end, Shu'er came up with an idea: "The princess has come to ask for peace again these days, and the old lady wants to ask when it can't be." However, it is not appropriate to mention this past matter, the old lady only needs to ask the princess what she means, if the princess has no time to take care of the county lord, why doesn't the old lady 'become' the beauty of the person? ”
The old lady remembered that she said that she was going to give Chu Chaoyang a concubine, and the person she was optimistic about hadn't 'shown' her face in front of Chu Chaoyang's eyes, so she asked Gu to stuff the maid next to Chu Chaoyang, which reminded the old lady that with Gu's 'sex', if she said that she wanted to '' Chu Liangrao's affairs, she would be more active.
Thinking like this, the old lady made up her mind to mention it to the Gu family. If the Gu family really let go, it is not impossible for him to find a glorious 'door' lintel for Auntie to marry.
When Chu Liangrao is engaged, it will be much easier for him to let Chu Chaoyang take a concubine.
With a good calculation in her heart, the old lady only felt that the Gu family would definitely take the bait this time, but she didn't want her to be so 'forced' to cause a lot of trouble to Chu Liangrao.
When the Gu family came to ask for peace, the old lady and Yan Yue said their plans in a 'lustful' manner. Gu didn't know that he was a mother-in-law, and he would speak softly when he came to her for something, and it was not for nothing that he didn't listen to her and turned his face on the spot. Respectfully agreed, Gu sneered in his heart, and secretly thought: Since you want Auntie to marry so much, then she has to choose a 'door' marriage to be worthy of your painstaking efforts.
After that, the Gu family carefully selected men of the right age to come, and went from house to house every day, for fear that people would not know that she was preparing for Chu Liangrao's marriage. Gu's doing this made the old lady feel a fire in her heart, Chu Liangrao is the county lord, and she looks so pretty, where does she need to go to the 'door' to find someone like this, but it lowers the 'door' threshold of the palace.
But no matter what, the Gu family is really concerned about Chu Liangrao's matter, and the old lady turns a blind eye to the 'sex', and she should endure it.
In this regard, Chu Liangrao was very depressed, of course she understood that the Gu family didn't want her to marry a good family, and this positivity must be the result of the old lady pushing the 'waves' behind her back. Chu Liangrao, who was still starting with the old lady to avoid early marriage, had to sigh with emotion, but at the moment she had no other way but to stand still.
