CH.136 The ugly-looking Mu Shizi
Since the Li Zhuang case was solved, there has been a new topic in Jingshi, which has just been calm for two days.
Wu Dehou, who had never asked for the title of his only son, suddenly presented the fold of the son to the saint.
This exact news is like pouring half a bowl of water into a pot of boiling oil, and it explodes in the streets and alleys of Jingshi. After all, a while ago, Qin Guanlan's impeachment of Wu Dehou and the condemnation of the Holy Lord have not subsided much.
Among them, Tianshenglou was the most eagerly discussed.
The newly invited storyteller was resting there talking about Wu Dehou's only son: "...... I heard that the only son of Wu Dehou was born with an ugly appearance, hunched over, neither literary nor martial, and he practiced riding for about ten years, but he couldn't climb on horseback. No, such an unsuccessful son, Wu Dehou could only hide him behind people, and did not dare to appear in front of people. ”
Someone swallowed melon seeds, listened with relish, and asked loudly: "You old man, you talk as if you have seen it." ”
The storyteller laughed: "This son of Wu Dehou has already come to Jingshi." Maybe in the vast sea of people, you have passed by him. ”
"You old man is laughing again, since he was born so ugly, how could he visit this Jingshi City."
"Tsk, although Mu Shizi looks ugly, he can't stand the fact that he has a good father with great achievements! There is a saying, Lang Jun has no money and is ashamed to see people, and Mu Shizi is not bad for money. ”
"Old man, what you said is as if Wu Dehou really did like Qin Yushi's impeachment, and embezzled tens of millions of military salaries into his own pocket."
"Hehe, the old man didn't say that. To get back to the point, this is the upcoming flower-viewing party in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, and Mu Shizi will attend. At that time, the little ladies should open their eyes and take a good look at Mu Shizi. ”
……
"Hmph, the flower viewing party held every year in the Eldest Princess's Mansion is nominally a flower appreciation, but in fact it is a meeting for the young ladies of each family." A delicate voice said angrily.
The third floor of Tiansheng Building is divided into private rooms, one of which is covered by nobles, and there is a delicate little lady sitting in it, and the other is older, but the appearance is very similar to the little lady.
If Qin Wanwan was present, she would definitely recognize that the delicate little lady was Cui Qingqing.
The older one is Cui Qingqing's mother, Mu, the county lord of Jingshu.
Cui Qingqing is still full of gold at this time, her mother, the hair ornament on the head of the lord of Jingshu County is more than Cui Qingqing, and it is more valuable. Every day before going to bed, after removing the jewelry, the county lord of Jingshu would cry out for shoulder pain and ask the maid to press her for two quarters of an hour before giving up. According to her mother, these jewelry, if not worn on the head and treasured in the box, completely lose the meaning of their existence.
The county lord of Jingshu enjoyed the refreshments comfortably: "What are you angry about, you have to go almost every year." Although you go to the flower viewing party every year, you are so angry with Qin Wanwan that you are going to die. ”
Cui Qingqing: "......" her mother just didn't protect her like this.
The county lord of Jingshu forked a small piece of pastry with a golden fork, and said with some regret: "It's a pity that this year, Song Shizi will not appear again." ”
Cui Qingqing peeped at her mother, she always felt that every time her aunt spoke, there was always a deep meaning in it.
In the past, she wanted to fight with Qin Wanwan for Song Mingjie, but her mother did not support or oppose it. Knowing that Song Mingjie died on the day she died, her mother didn't seem surprised at all.
The county lord of Jingshu stuffed the pastry into her mouth: "Frowning, hurry up and smile, so that I can give birth to you so good-looking." ”
Well, her mother has always been a special existence.
"A-Niang, you say, Wu Dehou's son, will he really look ugly?"
The county lord of Jingshu poked another piece of pastry, and said leisurely: "Many years ago, Wu Dehou returned to Beijing to report on his work, and I was fortunate to be summoned by the saint to enter the palace to see Wu Dehou once. Wu Dehou, he was born quite handsome. Unless he marries a wife who is extremely ugly, or his son is ill with some strange disease, he is born like the storyteller said. ”
Cui Qingqing looked at her mother: "My daughter rarely hears you praise a man for being handsome." It's Daddy, and Auntie has never boasted. ”
The county lord of Jingshu sighed: "No way, your father is a weak scholar, and the Lang Jun in this Beijing Division, most of them lack manhood, and there are very few men like Wu Dehou." "Dasheng has been founded for nearly a hundred years, in recent years, the imperial court has become more and more heavy on literature and light on martial arts, walking on the streets and alleys, there are many handsome Langjun, but there are few handsome Langjun. She still remembers that back then, the heroic boy rode a horse and jumped across the street, attracting pieces of spring hearts.
It's her Mu clan and the Cui family, which family doesn't focus on reading?
Cui Qingqing was suspicious: "If Mu Shizi is normal, Ah Niang won't want to promise me to Mu Shizi, right?" ”
"Why not? You're not too young. If you don't decide to marry again, I have to close my eyes, take Lang Jun's roster and check it directly. "Lord Jingshu is very polite.
Cui Qingqing said with a smile: "A-Niang said so, but she was saved in her heart, and A-Niang was reluctant to give up her son." ”
The county lord of Jingshu shook his head: "If it is Mu Shizi, A-Niang will definitely raise her hands and feet in approval." ”
"What if Mu Shizi is already interested in someone?"
The county lord of Jingshu said: "Regardless of whether he is interested in someone or not, as long as he attends the eldest princess's flower viewing party, it means that he is willing to marry the little lady who appeared at the flower viewing party." "The marriage of a wealthy family has always been complicated, and various thoughts have measured and measured the results. What two love each other is a lie after the union.
She warned her daughter: "On that day, your temperament will be more restrained for me, no matter what Mu Shizi looks like, don't lose your self-cultivation." Remember, it was Wudehou who guarded Yanzhou for decades before he had the stability of the Jingshi. ”
"Listen to A-Niang." Cui Qingqing said this on her lips, but she didn't think so in her heart, at most, on that day, others coaxed Mu Shizi, and she didn't add oil and vinegar.
Although she can't marry Song Mingjie, she doesn't want to really marry Yanzhou, which is full of wind and sand.
The new clothes are made the day before the cherry blossom viewing party.
Feng Xiangtang made a total of two sets of improved Hu clothes for Qin Xiangxiang. One is bean green, the other is light eggplant, and the patterns are the most popular color folded branch flowers.
Not only are there bearded clothes, black lacquered gauze hats, but also small sheepskin boots. This is still Qin Xiangxiang's boots that are so big and wear such good leather.
It was Yao Erlang who brought her clothes. Qin Xiangxiang saw Yao Erlang, and was taken aback again: "Yao Erlangjun, what's wrong with you?" Why is your face so ugly? ”
Yao Erlangjun's face was a little worse than the previous two days.
Yao Erlang had a sad face. He was bitter in his heart, he was caught by the young master every night to transcribe the military book, and that work was more tiring than practicing a hundred sets of boxing. But he couldn't complain to Mrs. Qin, so he had to continue the previous excuse: "I can't sleep well at night." By the way, Mrs. Qin, have you memorized all those rosters? ”
"It's already eight or nine." Qin thought about it.
It's just that those portraits are basically the same, and I can't match them with the roster when I see too much. When the time comes, you will have to improvise.
"That's good." Yao Erlang nodded and walked away like a wandering spirit.
On the day of the flower viewing party, Qin wanted to get dressed and wait in the small courtyard. Yao Erlang walked in and handed her a small and delicate dagger: "Big lady, the dagger is hidden in your boots, if you are in danger, you can use it to defend yourself." ”
Qin wanted to be obedient and hid the dagger.
"What about Mu Langjun?" She looked outside. After measuring the size that day, she never saw Mu Ting again.
"The young master and Uncle Chen entered the palace to listen to the seal, and we will take a car to the eldest princess's mansion first." Yao Erlang said.
I didn't expect Mu Ting to be the son of Enfeng today. Qin thought about it and was a little ashamed, he had been doing rice worms for a few days, and his ears and eyes were dull. No, she had to pull herself together.
The Eldest Princess's Mansion is located in the northwest of Beijing, covering a wide area, just covering an area in front of the door, there is half of the Qin family.
No wonder everyone wants to climb up, to be powerful, to have money. Qin thought to himself. Even a small person like her, looking at the bustling traffic in front of the eldest princess's mansion, felt yearning.
