Chapter 29: Die or Promise, Two Choices
"Second Miss Chen, why do you have to do this," Mama Zhou turned to Chen Anning and said in a low voice after calming the Marquis of Kaiyang, who was about to get angry, "You married into the Kaiyang Marquis Mansion as the princess, and if you really heal the Hou Mansion, and let the Hou Mansion have other descendants, it will not be of any benefit to you, right?" ”
"I've been a slave for a long time, and I can't even understand human speech?" Chen Anning mocked, "I have never been rare for a princess to be a princess or a princess!" ”
"Miss Chen Er......"
"Okay, don't talk to me about that nonsense, I don't like to hear it." Chen Anning interrupted her, "Anyway, I'll put my words here today, if Mrs. Hou must let me marry her, then the day I marry into the Kaiyang Marquis Mansion will be the beginning of Sun Shizi's loss of the identity of the Kaiyang Marquis Mansion!" ”
After Chunrui glanced at Chen Anning, and then at Mrs. Kaiyang Hou and Mama Zhou, she suddenly interjected: "Why bother? As long as Miss Chen Er lets Kaiyang Hou know, you can let him reopen the Hou Mansion for the Hou Mansion, and the slave believes that Kaiyang Hou will definitely be able to agree to any conditions for Miss Chen Er! ”
"I don't want to bother," Chen Anning said slowly, "but everything has to come first." ”
"Mrs. Hou has worked tirelessly to wait for me here, and she has been grinding with me for so long, I always have to give her a chance, right?"
Although the real reason she gave the opportunity was that she didn't want to be a farmer again.
When Mama Zhou heard her say this, she instantly relieved herself.
After whispering a few words to appease Mrs. Kaiyang Hou, Mama Zhou changed her previous contempt, and after bowing respectfully to Chen Anning, she asked, "Can Miss Chen Er be accommodating?" ”
Chen Anning smiled and said, "What kind of accommodation?" ”
"Miss Chen Er also knows that the Kaiyang Hou Mansion is such a lone seedling for the world, and now he ......" Mama Zhou was embarrassed, "If Miss Chen Er can heal the world, it will be fine." Not only is the cure not good, but he is unwilling to marry into the Hou Mansion, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for the lady to explain to the Hou Ye after returning to the house. ”
"Okay or not, that's something you should consider." Chen Anning said indifferently, "What does it have to do with me?" ”
Mama Zhou said: "That's a good thing to say, it's just ......"
Chen Anning got up and interrupted her: "Since Mrs. Hou can't make up her mind, then I'll go to discuss it with Master Hou." ”
Mrs. Kaiyang Hou looked at her coldly, "Are you threatening me?" ”
Chen Anning said calmly: "If you think this is a threat, then well, it is a threat." ”
Mrs. Kaiyang Hou sneered, "Do you think I'll be fooled?" ”
"Kaiyang Hou's Mansion is good, but Mrs. Hou can't help but take herself too seriously." Chen Anning said indifferently, "What I want is the result, as for whether this result is given by you or by Kaiyang Hou, as far as I am concerned, there is no difference." ”
Mrs. Kaiyang Hou looked at her with murderous intent in her eyes. After a long time, she withdrew her killing intent, glanced at Chunrui and Chun Tao again, and said coldly: "I can cancel your relationship with my son, but how do you ensure that my son is safe for life?" And how can you ensure that you will not go back on your word, and how can you ensure that what you and I say today will not be made public? ”
"If Mrs. Hou doesn't go back on her word, I naturally won't go back on it." Chen Anning said, "As for the matter of making it public and ensuring that Sun Shizi is safe in his life, if Mrs. Hou is not at ease, she can make a contract." But all those who were in this house had their handprints on the deed. If I don't save Sun Shizi when he dies, Mrs. Hou can naturally bring the deed to the court to denounce me. ”
"In the same way, if the matter discussed today is made public, Mrs. Hou can also bring the deed to the government."
"If it's Chunrui and Chun Tao, I don't think the Eldest Princess's Mansion can accommodate them."
Mrs. Kaiyang Hou glanced at Mama Zhou, gritted her silver teeth and said, "Go get a pen and paper." ”
Mama Zhou sighed, resigned herself to her fate, went out to find the shopkeeper and came back with a pen and paper.
After the deed was made and everyone pressed their handprints one by one, Mrs. Kaiyang Hou put away the deed with a cold face and left without looking back.
Wait for the carriage to get in and leave the teahouse.
She jerked over the cups, plates, and other things on the coffee table.
Mama Zhou summoned the two maidservants next to her to quickly clean up, and persuaded in a low voice: "The matter has come to this, and it is useless to be angry again, Madam still thinks about how to talk to the Hou Ye after she goes back." ”
Mrs. Kaiyang Hou said coldly: "This, sooner or later, she will be good-looking!" ”
Mama Zhou said in passing: "Miss Chen Er is unwilling to marry into the Hou Mansion, according to the old slave, it is not that she looks down on the son, but ...... The prince used to like Miss Chen, although Miss Chen tolerated her more, but in the end he has always been cold. Now that the son of the world has ended up like this, and she has become a disciple of the divine doctor, with the eldest princess relying on her, she is naturally unwilling to give in anymore. ”
"In addition, she is still young now, so her temperament is naturally older. The Chen family's family can't find someone who can be on the stage to analyze the pros and cons for her, so it is inevitable that she will have to endure more hardships to understand that she is unwilling to marry into the Hou Mansion, and she will inevitably regret it in the future. ”
Mrs. Kaiyang Hou snorted, and her anger was half smooth.
Seeing this, Mama Zhou continued to persuade: "Actually, this matter is Miss Chen's fault. If she hadn't harmed people first, why would Madame be so angry today? ”
Mrs. Kaiyang Hou's eyes were cold: "How many days are there until the half-moon period?" ”
Mama Zhou immediately replied: "There are still five days." ”
"Don't wait," Mrs. Kaiyang Hou ordered with a cold face, "Call someone to the Chen Mansion to spread a message, and let that slut come to the Hou Mansion to serve my son today!" ”
Mama Zhou hurriedly responded.
In the teahouse.
Soon after Mrs. Kaiyang Hou left, Chen Anning also left the private room.
There is still some distance from the private room to the stairs.
This distance happens to be the space of two private rooms.
Chen Anning came out in a private room, and when he passed by one of the private rooms, he couldn't help but slowly stop.
Most modern houses are not soundproof, let alone ancient.
Although the people in the private room had tried their best to keep their voices low.
But it still made Chen Anning hear his identity.
The second son of the second room of the Duke of Xu's mansion, Xu Zhan.
Where there is Xu Zhan, there must be Xie Xun.
Looking back at the private room where she and Mrs. Kaiyang Hou had stayed, and then at their private room, Chen Anning silently hooked the corners of his mouth, walked over slowly, and knocked on the door three times.
"Who?" In the room, Xu Zan glanced at Xie Xun and asked loudly.
Chen Anning didn't respond, but just knocked on the door three more times.
After Xu Zan asked who it was again, he looked at Xie Xun.
Xie Xun glanced at the door and motioned for him to open the door.
Although he knew who was outside the house, Xu Zan opened the door quickly, and smiled enthusiastically: "It turned out to be Miss Chen Er, which gust of wind blew Miss Chen Er over?" ”
Chen Anning leaned against the door frame, clasped his hands around his chest, glanced at him with a smile, and then glanced at Xie Xun, and said jokingly: "It was a gust of wind called Coincidence that blew me here." ”
Xu Zan pretended to be suspicious and said, "Coincidentally? What kind of wind is that, how come I've never heard of it? ”
"Coincidentally, the wind is ......," Chen Anning teased, "Last time I came out of the Eldest Princess's Mansion, I happened to meet you on the street." This time I came out of the eldest princess's mansion and entered this teahouse, and I happened to meet you again, do you say it's a coincidence? ”
