Chapter 12

Back at the gate of the Qin Mansion, Qin Sheng was the first to jump out of the carriage, "Big brother, you go back, I'll go to the outskirts of the city to ride a horse!" So saying, he went to the stables in a hurry.

"Go ahead."

Qin Sanlang touched his nose, Qin Xiaoliu was angry and didn't want to deal with him.

It didn't take long for them to see Qin Sheng come out on a white handsome horse, and after greeting them on the horse, he roared away.

Qin Heng looked at his younger brother's vigorous riding posture, and knew in his heart that he was holding his breath, and it was better to ride a horse on the outskirts of the city and disperse.

"Shall I go and see my mother, together?" Qin Heng asked Qin Sanlang.

Qin Sanlang thought about it, the eldest brother must have gone to talk to his mother about the Lu family, and his daughter-in-law must also be there with his mother, so he stepped forward and hooked his eldest brother's shoulder, "Let's go together, just accompany my mother to have a meal." ”

So the brothers went to Mrs. Qin's Qingfeng Courtyard together.

As soon as the two brothers sat down and drank a sip of water to moisten their throats, they saw their mother and the pregnant Nie Yunniang coming out of the bedroom one after the other by the maid, and then helped them to sit down.

His mother's face was pale, her face was sickly, and her voice was quite loud, "What did the Lu family say?" ”

Qin Heng saw that his mother's eyes were concerned, and he was obviously very concerned about this matter, so he told her the whole process of his meeting with Lu Desheng and his wife.

After he finished speaking, Mrs. Qin nodded, "In this way, the Lu family is quite reasonable, and they don't blame Ah Sheng for everything." ”

Nie Yunniang on the side pursed her lips when she heard this, "This is the normal reaction that normal people should have, right?" ”

"You can't say that, Ah Sheng is also responsible for causing this embarrassing situation now." Madame Qin sighed. In fact, this matter is not a big deal, as long as the unmarried men and women don't mind, they are the family of military generals, they are used to seeing life and death, and they really don't care about this.

At the beginning, when the incident happened, Ah Sheng went home and said that they didn't care, and they didn't even pay much attention to it, until the Zhao family came to the door early this morning to talk about the resignation, and they didn't realize that the matter was serious.

Although they have always said that they don't mind, the Zhao family is very resolute in their intention to withdraw from their relatives, and they have no choice, so they agree to withdraw their relatives. After all, getting married is a marriage, not a feud, and since the other party is reluctant, they will not be happy if they are reluctant to be together.

The Zhao family's approach chilled them. Speaking of which, the Lu family's reputation in Chang'an is not good, but I didn't expect it to be very easy to deal with.

This is called the rumor not being credible. Take the Zhao family as an example, the reputation and reputation are so good that they are two streets away from the Lu family, right? But what do they do? "Nie Yunniang really hates the Zhao family. Today, the Zhao family's insistence on withdrawing from their relatives, they can all see that the falling into the water is just an excuse, and the Zhao family should have taken a fancy to the eldest son of the Xie family, and they want to rely on the other party by taking advantage of the falling into the water.

Mrs. Qin and Qin Heng's mother and son did not speak, obviously acquiescing to her statement.

Nie Yunniang hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Mother, eldest brother, husband, do we really want Ah Sheng to marry Second Miss Lu?" ”

Mrs. Qin: "This matter is wrong, Ah Sheng is also responsible, and our family has to bear it, and we can't act as if nothing happened." ”

"However, the Lu family's reputation is not good." Nie Yunniang hesitated and said.

It's not just bad, this Lu family, from top to bottom, these official wives in Chang'an City don't shake their heads when they mention this family. Lu Desheng has been scolded behind his back as a villain.

However, Lu Songli, the second lady of the Lu family, is the only one in their family who has barely received positive comments from everyone, she is timid and quiet, and she is not the same way as the Lu family, and she can be regarded as a good bamboo shoot.

Timid and quiet? Qin Heng remembered the scene where Miss Lu Er and her little brother stared at her, and her smart eyes felt that the rumors were not credible.

The unfinished words between Nie Yunniang's words were understood by the three people present. Their Qin family has been loyal and good for generations, and they have been defending the territory of Dali for a hundred years, taking the common people of the world as their own responsibility, and are deeply loved by the people. The name of the Qin family is how many sons of the Qin family have used their blood and their lives, and every time there is a big battle, how many sons and daughters have died on the battlefield.

If he really marries the Lu family, the reputation of the Qin family may be affected by it.

Qin Heng explained, "Although Lu Desheng has a very bad reputation in the officialdom, he really did not cause trouble to the people, the people he impeached were officials, and it was difficult to say anything about officialdom." "Who knows what's going on inside. He investigated, and it was strange that Lu Desheng's reputation among the common people was mixed, not scolded. He later understood, after all, there are always some corrupt officials and silverfish among the officials brought down by Lu Desheng, and every now and then, there will always be victims clapping their hands in their hearts, these people naturally can't hate Lu Desheng, but in the face of a large number of voices abusing Lu Desheng, these people don't dare to speak out.

Qin Sanlang also laughed and said, "Yun Niang, don't look at those ministers pointing at Lu Desheng and scolding, I don't know how to envy him in my heart." ”

Hearing what the eldest brother and her husband said, Nie Yunniang also put her mind at ease, and then asked another doubt in her heart, "Mother, I think I'm very puzzled, the marriage of the Xie Lu family is still there, how can you say that the Zhao family is sure that the Xie family will marry Zhao Yutan?" If the Lu family doesn't agree to quit their family, won't Zhao Yutan be small? ”

Mrs. Qin said lightly, "That is also the choice of the Zhao family." The family affairs of the Xie Lu family are not so easy to retreat, at least the initiative is not in the hands of the Xie family. ”

Nie Yunniang looked curious.

Mrs. Qin explained softly, "Your mother's family is from Luoyang, and it was too late to marry in, when I was a child, the little lady of the Lu family saved the life of the eldest Langjun of the Xie family, and this family affair was also set by the late Mrs. Xie back then." ”

"I see." Nie Yunniang suddenly realized.

"Forget it, don't mention the Zhao family, they will all be irrelevant people in the future." Mrs. Qin turned to ask Qin Heng, "In your opinion, is it possible for the Lu family to agree to marry their little daughter to Ah Sheng?" ”

Qin Heng pondered for a moment and said, "This ...... It's hard to say. ”

Mrs. Qin sighed, "I've seen the Xie family's eldest man, Ah Sheng is indeed inferior to others." Zhuyu is in front, and it is normal for the Lu family to look down on Ah Sheng. ”

"Mother, you can't say that, they all have their own good." Qin Heng's words were not just comforting words, but he really felt that his family Ah Sheng was very good.

Qin Sanlang suddenly remembered the conversation of those old women just now, and immediately echoed with a smile, "Mother, eldest brother is right, Xie Zhan has advantages, and our Ah Sheng is not bad." ”

Mrs. Qin said, "I, now I hope that the Lu family can agree to marry their little daughter." Go back and take care of Ah Sheng, let him learn how to hurt his daughter-in-law. ”

Qin Heng couldn't cry or laugh, "Mother, it's not appropriate for me to do this, why don't you leave it to the third child?" "And why does his mother like the second girl of the Lu family so much? Before I could get a glance at these eight characters, it was arranged.

Mrs. Qin waved her hand, "I don't care about this, you two brothers are responsible for teaching Ah Sheng well." ”

"Mother, I'm going to be jealous of you like this. The sixth brother and sister haven't come in yet, so you're protecting it? Nie Yunniang feigned anger.

"Hehe, don't worry, you daughters-in-law are all protected."

"It seems that my mother really likes this second girl of the Lu family?" Nie Yunniang was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that her mother-in-law should not have seen this second miss of the Lu family very much, how could she like it so much?

Mrs. Qin smiled but did not deny it. Can she say that she did it all from her heart? The Zhao family insisted on withdrawing from her family, she had regrets in her heart, but it was not strong, and she could even be said to be secretly relieved.

Zhao Yutan's girl is said to be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and her temperament is gentle and quiet. It is said that it is more than enough to match their little six sons. But for some reason, as the wedding date gets closer and closer, her heart is getting more and more panicked. She thought, maybe she and Xiaoliu are not suitable. Later, the object of her kiss was changed to the little daughter of the Lu family, and her heart was inexplicably peaceful, and she had a good dream when she took a nap in the afternoon.
