"As for the four girls," Zhang looked at Wen Cha, "the four girls are almost over, I have also discussed with your grandmother about this marriage, and I will marry the southern businessman Master Li, this Master Li suffered a fire the year before last, and burned down the house, and the children, wives and concubines were also buried in the fire, and the four girls married as the main wife, which is also a good thing." ”

Zhang's words were light, but the other three listened to them with horror.

That Master Li is already a bad old man who is dying of old age, if he marries, Wencha will only be a widow.

What's more, this Master Li is just a businessman and has no power, if Wen Cha is bullied or even killed in another country, it is also possible.

Thinking about it like this, Yin Lan didn't feel that she was marrying badly, but felt that this Zhang family and the old lady were vicious.

used her and Yin Ning to curry favor with the prince's close ministers, and used warm tea to exchange for Wanguan's family property for the Hou Mansion, which can be said to be exhausted.

Just because Yin Yue married Song Ci, and Song Ci is a protector, the prince is the next prince, do you have to sacrifice them to pay for the Hou Mansion?

No, a strong unwillingness rose in Yin Lan's heart, why? Why should they sacrifice for this?

"Yin Cha has no opinion." Wen Cha was quite calm among the three, and she looked at the smile on Zhang's face that couldn't be hidden, and her heart was cold.

"Since the three girls have no opinion, let's bring the news back."

The old lady said with a final word: "The second girl will marry next month, and the third girl and the fourth girl will marry in two months.

Yin Ning couldn't help but argue: "But two months later, the fourth sister will only turn fourteen, which is a little early."

"What do you know?" Zhang glared at her, "There are countless people who have married at the age of twelve or thirteen in Da Zhou, are you more noble than them?" ”

Yin Ning was blocked and speechless, Wen Cha pulled her sleeve and comforted her silently, Yin Ning turned her face to the side, and tears couldn't stop flowing.

"Get up," the old lady finally opened Chrysostom, "they are all girls who are about to marry, who are you going to behave like this?" ”

Yin Ning took the hands of her two sisters and stood up, her eyes were red and swollen and couldn't be covered at all, Zhang snorted coldly in her heart, this is the fate of the wrong belly, who is called the concubine of the down-and-out Houmen?

As long as a sentence of "for the Hou Mansion" can block the mouths of those aunts, and they must not marry their daughters obediently?

"Let's go back," the old lady waved her hand lightly when she saw that the dust had settled, "When you get married, you will stay in the house obediently, and don't have this sad face when you get married." ”

Yin Ning pulled her two younger sisters out, and as soon as Fang left the compound, Yin Lan covered her face and cried bitterly.

She is the most wanted to marry well among the three girls, her mother is an aunt, she has been suppressed by the Zhang family all the year round, and she has been very miserable, and it didn't take long for her to get a heart disease, and she was sick in bed all the year round.

Yin Lan cried because she was afraid that she would follow in her mother's footsteps, if she also became a concubine, her life would be ruined.

"I'd rather marry a squire than climb the high walls of Tianfu Yin."

She doesn't want to waste her life for a bad old man, and she doesn't want to be bullied for the rest of her life.

Yin Ning also silently shed tears on the side, how much better could she be?

How good would it be if you could devote yourself to the families of ordinary people, be an ordinary girl, and have a harmonious family affair?

It's a pity that they are all concubines, and they can't help themselves.

She wiped the tears from her face, took a deep breath, and her whole body was haggard.

Seeing this, Wen Cha reached out and took her hand, and asked softly, "Has the second sister ever thought about marrying someone else?"

Yin Ning turned around, "What does the fourth sister mean?" ”

Wen Cha didn't answer and asked, "Do you want the second sister?"

Naturally, I want to.

But Yin Ning didn't dare to speak, "The family matter will be decided tomorrow, where are there other choices." ”

Yes, Wen Chaxin said that General Chang Yuan was her choice, but I don't know if he has the heart to marry?

Wen Cha thought about it, planning to find time to ask Chu Xiao.

"Let's go back," Yin Ning didn't care much about Wen Cha's question, she reluctantly smiled and said, "I'm going to get married next month, and I have to embroider a wedding dress for myself." ”

Yin Lan seemed to be stimulated by the word "wedding dress", shook off her hand, turned her head and ran back to the yard crying.

Yin Ning had no choice but to take Wen Cha's hand and walk back.

"Second sister, I'm not kidding." Wen Cha looked sideways into her eyes, "If you don't want to marry that person, then don't marry." ”

"It's not a question of marrying or not," Yin Ning shook his head and sighed: "If I don't marry, I will use many methods, but I can escape this time, what about next time?" There is still my biological mother living in the courtyard, and if my willfulness affects her, I will marry someone else, and I will suffer for the rest of my life. ”

Relatives are topics that can never be escaped, especially women, who value these the most.

Mrs. Zhou is a timid woman, otherwise, she should have stood up for her daughter all these years, but unfortunately, under the suppression of the old lady and the Zhang family, she not only couldn't stand up, but also dragged Yin Ning down.

"What if you can marry someone who is jealous of the Hou Mansion?"

"How can there be such a good thing in the world?" Yin Ning laughed at himself: "If there is really such a person, he should marry a concubine."

"What if he has a crush on you?"

"That would be blind."

Warm tea: "......"

"Let's go back," Yin Ning nodded the tip of Wen Cha's nose, "Don't think about these beginningless things in the future." ”

Wen Cha followed her step by step, looking at her slender but melancholy figure, and made a decision in her heart.

Back in the courtyard, Wen Cha asked Chun Rong to call the newly invited rough girl, this rough girl followed Wen Cha into the house yesterday evening, with wide shoulders and thick body, exceptionally strong, and amazing strength, for a mouthful of food, I had to follow Wen Cha as a girl.

Wen Cha said to Zhang, and Zhang saw that she was just an ordinary-looking girl, thinking that Wen Cha was going to marry the south, so she fulfilled her wish.

Chunzhu obediently walked to Wen Cha's side, Wen Cha handed her a note, and let her out.

That night, there was a knock on the window of the small courtyard.

Wen Cha opened the window and met a pair of narrow eyes.

Chu Xiao stood under the pear blossom tree in front of the window, looked at her quietly, and said, "You said in your letter that there is an emergency, what is the matter?"

"General Chu, can you help me make an appointment with General Changyuan?"

Chu Xiao's brows furrowed, "What's the matter?" ”

Wen Cha couldn't bear it, Chu Xiao's brows furrowed even tighter, "If you don't say it, I'll let people check it tomorrow." ”

As soon as he said this, Wen Cha cried out, tears fell down his eyes, as if he had been greatly wronged, his tears were hazy, and the pear blossoms brought rain.

The corners of Chu Xiao's mouth pursed.

Her original patience was also scorched by her crying, "What the hell—"
