Zhou Wenjun couldn't care about leaving, and Begonia also stayed with great interest to eat melons.

The four big girls surrounded Zhou Xuejun and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?" Mrs. Gui wants to marry her daughter to your brother? I didn't hear the wind before! ”

The Zhou sisters and Peng Yuqi lived in the back house of the Zhenguo Mansion, but they heard the gossip last night, saying that the cause of the grudge between Mrs. Gui and Mrs. Cheng'en Hou Shizi was because the former wanted to marry his daughter to the latter's eldest son Zhou Hengjun, the latter did not agree, and refused very simply and resolutely, and the former couldn't get up and down, so he held a grudge. Since leaving the capital, they have walked more than a thousand miles along the way, and they have quarreled for a thousand miles, and they are almost annoying the latter to death.

Although this is a unilateral statement by Mrs. Chengen Hou Shizi, it has not been confirmed by Mrs. Gui, but it ...... Is Mrs. Gui so unparticular about doing things? As soon as the people in the Zhenguo Mansion knew that she wanted to marry her daughter to Zhou Hengjun, she turned her head and fell in love with Zhou Yijun? Did you have a day before and after?

And as soon as she had this idea, she immediately asked her daughter to get close to Zhou Yijun's own sister, and scared the little girl, what was she thinking in her head?!

Zhou Wenjun's heart was furious. Empress Dowager Zhou and Chengenhou asked the Zhenguo Mansion to help take care of the orphans of the Wu family, which is nothing, just to help find a house, buy a few slaves, and take care of more in daily life. But if the two families really get married, the Zhou family won't be able to get rid of the Wu family!

Zhou Wenjun has no opinion on his brother and cousin, but he can't stand Mrs. Gui's temper. She has only been working for a day in the Zhenguo Mansion, and how many things have happened!

Zhou Xuejun obviously had the same idea. Because of her young age, she has been following the elders, unlike her sisters, who can still have the freedom to find excuses to avoid, she can only watch how Mrs. Gui gets along with her elders, and she is even more jealous of the former.

She whispered to Zhou Wenjun and them: "Mrs. Gui came to the upper room with her daughter early this morning. The grandmother, the aunts, and the aunts were all busy for the feast, and they were persuaded to go back to rest several times, but Mrs. Gui sat in the upper room to eat tea as if they hadn't heard, and taught Sister Wu while eating, so that she could learn the skills of housekeeping from her grandmothers, aunts, and aunts. Grandmother and they couldn't help, no matter how busy they were, they had to leave someone to accompany her, and then I was arrested and called to accompany Sister Wu. ”

She just listened to Mrs. Gui teach her daughter, and praised Wu Qiong's smartness, studiousness, and filial piety to the wives and wives of the Zhou family, and lamented that her daughter is not young, but there is no major event in her life, and she doesn't know where her future marriage is. Then Mrs. Gui praised the grandchildren of the Zhou family, and the granddaughters of the Zhou family were only brought by in one sentence, but she praised the grandchildren of the Zhou family, especially those who were similar in age to Wu Qiong.

Mrs. Gui's hint was actually very clear, even Zhou Xuejun's child understood it, and the Duchess of Zhenguo and several young ladies naturally heard what she meant, but no one answered.

The reason why Mrs. Chengen Hou Shizi did not agree to the marriage is very clear to everyone. The three members of the Wu family are still half a black household, and they can't even show up in front of people in the capital, so they can only live in seclusion in the back house of the Chengenhou Mansion and live a life without leaving home. The eldest grandson of the Chengen Marquis Mansion will inherit the title of family business in the future, and marry a disgraceful wife, how will he live in the future?

But Wu Qiong is the niece of Empress Wu and the granddaughter of Duke Wu Wen'an, she wants to marry, unless she is married to the emperor or the crown prince, it is impossible not to be a wife.

Mrs. Chengenhou felt sorry for her son, and Chengenhou and his wife also had to consider the overall situation, and it was impossible to agree to the marriage. They even felt that Mrs. Gui should not open this mouth.

Originally, if the Wu family was just a simple survivor, and when the Sun family collapsed in the future, the three members of the Wu family would no longer have to worry about being persecuted, and they would be able to appear in front of the public openly and inherit the ancestral business. But Mrs. Gui is now suspected of murdering the six princes, and she is suspicious and disgusted by the emperor.

The Cheng'en Marquis Mansion tried its best to promote reconciliation between the emperor and the Zhou family, so how could he find such a troublesome in-law for himself?

And the Zhenguo Mansion in Chang'an is generally a similar idea. Mrs. Gui's identity is sensitive, so it is better not to get married, or not to marry. If you really want to get married, it can also be seen in the face of the Duke of Zhenguo, the Empress Dowager Zhou and the late eldest sister of Chengenhou, the Duchess Wu Wen'an, Wu Zhou, and choose an outstanding girl in the family to marry Wu Ke, and stay in Chang'an to live in the future, which will not hinder anything.

But Wu Qiong is the daughter of Mrs. Gui, she can't marry the grandson of the Zhenguo Mansion, and the Zhou family still has to worry about the emperor's thoughts!

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Duchess of Zhenguo did not answer the questions, and under the pretext that they were busy preparing for the banquet, they left one after another, leaving the youngest Mrs. Saturday to be in charge of entertaining guests, and from time to time people came to talk back. Mrs. Saturday has no son, so she doesn't have to worry about being entangled, but she is the main force responsible for hospitality, and Mrs. Gui tripped in the upper room and couldn't move, and she was also very annoyed. She hinted several times that Mrs. Gui would be a long time coming, and many things could be discussed slowly, and there was no need to decide today. However, Mrs. Gui didn't seem to understand her words, so she had to continue to entangle.

Zhou Xuejun's scalp was numb when he heard this, and when he heard that his cousins had arrived, he was about to leave immediately. Who knew that Mrs. Gui asked Wu Qiong to follow her and asked her to introduce a few new friends to Wu Qiong.

The Wu family is now far away from the capital, in Chang'an, where the Sun family can't reach out, and is protected by the Zhou family, Mrs. Gui doesn't want to hide anymore, and actively lets her daughter appear in front of people, hoping that her daughter can be favored by which lady. She herself wanted to make more friends, preferably the daughter of a high-ranking general. Because of such a family, they can help the Wu family.

Zhou Xuejun looked apprehensive: "This morning, Mrs. Gui has already met several ladies and wives, but she is talkative!" It's like you can talk to anyone. But everyone wants to talk to people they know well...... Strange embarrassing. Sister Wu is nothing, and she is also kind, but she listens to her mother too much. Mrs. Gui told her to follow me, and she really followed me all the time. Even when I went to change clothes, she had to follow...... I wanted to talk to a few close friends, but with Sister Wu here, everyone was uncomfortable and didn't want to take me to play at all. Later, the eldest sister asked me to run errands, so I handed her over to Sister Wanjun and ran away by myself. If I go back this time, I may not find another chance to get rid of her. ”

The little girl said pitifully, and looked at Zhou Wenjun with a blank eye: "Big sister, you can help me once!" ”

Zhou Wenjun couldn't help but "tsk", in the end, he was still soft-hearted, but it was not okay not to tell the elders about this matter. The banquet will be held in a while, if the grandmother Zhenguo Duchess didn't see her beloved little granddaughter Zhou Xuejun appear, she would definitely ask people to look around, wouldn't that add to the chaos?

Zhou Wenjun had no choice but to say: "I went to ask my grandmother in person, and she promised you to sit with us." Wait, I'll send Sister Hai back first. ”

Haitang ate melons happily, and said busily: "It's okay, I recognize the way back." Sister Wenjun just takes care of your business. The banquet is about to begin, don't let the Duchess of Zhenguo worry. ”

Zhou Wenjun was in a dilemma, so Zhou Xuejun volunteered: "I'll be the guide of the big sister of the Hai family, right?" My aunt is sitting over there, too. ”

Zhou Wenjun hesitated for a moment, and then apologized to Haitang: "It's me who was rude and didn't keep my promise." ”

Haitang smiled and waved her hand, she really didn't care: "It's okay." General Thursday is still my grandfather's immediate boss. If Sister Xuejun sends me back to the table, then I will be too face-saving! ”

Zhou Wenjun laughed when he heard this, and scratched his little sister's nose: "It's cheap for you." ”
