Chapter 60: Begging to Marry

Wu Niang and Ziwei Ziyuan were talking. Over there, Mother Xu was replying to the eldest wife.

nothing found

Xu’s mother’s face turned red.

With her personality, it's impossible to just leave Shiniang alone. All those things must have been handed over to Shiniang. Otherwise, those two wouldn't have the guts to run away. The eldest lady's face is a little gloomy. Please check it carefully.

.I don’t believe it. She has no flaws at all.

Mother Xu hurriedly said: I have already told Jin Lian and Yin Ping to pay more attention to them.

The eldest lady slightly raised her eyebrows and said: According to Wu Xiaoquan's tone, Brother Sheng will arrive in Yanjing in the next two days. Please put him in the west wing of the main courtyard.

Mother Xu was startled.

The eldest lady glanced at her and said softly: I heard that he took Dijin away from his room.

He was asked to take care of the house, causing two aunts to disappear and one to be hanged. He also took in the maids around him without the consent of the elders. The former was incompetent and there was nothing that could be done; the latter was completely unethical and moral.

There is a problem. If you compare a son with no virtue and incompetence with the uncle, even if he is born from the belly of the elder wife, I am afraid that he will not be liked, let alone the son of an unloved aunt.

Xu's mother suddenly realized it and nodded repeatedly: Don't worry, I will definitely let the elder know about the fourth master secretly collecting the brocade.

The eldest lady nodded and changed the subject: Wu Niang and Ten Niang are getting married in tandem. We have to carefully consider the dowry.

Mother Xu's thoughts changed after hearing this, and she tentatively said: How about giving the forest to the Fifth Miss and the dry land to the Tenth Miss?

Seeing that Xu’s mother completely understood what she meant, a smile flashed in the eldest lady’s eyes: Not bad. That’s it.

The Luo family's property is all in the south of the Yangtze River. The mountains and forests can still yield a few taels of silver, but the dry land can't grow anything except peanuts.

There is also money for packing the boxes. Please give Wu Niang more. A hint of fatigue flashed across the eldest lady's expression. No matter what, she has always been well-behaved and obedient in front of me.

Mother Xu smiled and said: I will tell the fifth lady. She is a well-behaved person and will definitely accept your kindness.

The eldest lady sneered: I want to die to impress the eldest man, huh?

Mother Xu didn't dare to answer.

For a moment, there was silence in the room.

A little maid reported through the curtain: Madam, the eldest master is back.

The eldest lady winked at Mother Xu, who nodded slightly, and the curtain was opened with a swish. The eldest man walked in with a sullen face.

That scoundrel said something and sat down opposite the eldest lady.

Just for these two days, the eldest lady said, I have already told Mother Xu to clean up the house.

Mother Xu had already served tea to the elder herself, and then led the waiters in the room to retreat.

Sir, the eldest lady sighed, drink some tea and feel better. But don't get angry.

The elder took the tea cup and his expression softened slightly.

It is common for children to do wrong things when they are young. The eldest wife softly persuaded the eldest man, and I was very worried about the two aunts. They have been in the Luo family for decades and have never stepped out of the door. If this is the case,

What kind of plot is there? I really can't think of it. Moreover, no matter how stupid Brother Sheng is, there are still Wu Xiaoquan and others at home, so they will definitely arrange for people to follow him when he goes to the temple fair. I think it is more likely to be more serious than bad. But the fourth aunt chose her.

He died at this time. Yuhang is a small place. If word of this spreads, our Luo family will be disgraced. It will also be detrimental to the reputation of the fourth master. It is also the time when the five mothers and ten mothers are planning to get married. It is really worrying.

The elder snorted fiercely after hearing this and said: Throw Mr. Yang to the mass grave.

The eldest wife was happy in her heart, but said sadly on her face: The master is talking nonsense again. How can you throw the fourth aunt into a mass grave? What I mean is that I want to hide the news for the time being until the fifth aunt and the tenth aunt get married.

, I’ll mourn my fourth aunt again. What do you think?

The elder hesitated for a moment: Does Shi Niang know?

I haven't told her yet. The eldest lady said, you know that our family is not as good as before in recent years. We can't make more money to marry our daughter. Whether it's Mao Guogong's mansion or Qian Gongzi, they are all first-rate.

It's a good marriage. After passing this village, I'm afraid this shop won't be there anymore.

The eldest man's lips curled up slightly when he heard this, and he was about to say something when the eldest lady said: I know that you feel dissatisfied with both of these marriages. But think about it. How old are our two daughters? Let's talk about the second wife.

My fourth mother, my legitimate daughter, was given a dowry of 3,000 taels of silver. In the end, my second brother and sister were not only interested in money but also in favor of favors, so they finally managed to provide a candidate.

Okay, okay. I feel guilty when I mention Qian, you just have to make the decision.

The eldest lady smiled slightly, and a little maid said through the curtain: Madam, Sister Yanhong from the Yongping Marquis Mansion is here.

Yanhong is Yuan Niang's personal maid.

The two of them were startled, but the curtain was pulled open with a swish, and a woman with delicate features burst in: Madam, hurry up, Madam, something is wrong with you.

The eldest lady tilted her head when she heard a buzzing sound in her head.

The old man's face turned pale with fright. While he pinched the old lady, he shouted: "Hurry, go and get the doctor." Then he called for the old lady and turned around to blame Yan Hong. "You can't take a breath before speaking."

Yan Hong didn't know what to say when she saw this scene, but she was thinking about the shocking blood that Yuan Niang spat on her clothes.

Mother, as the saying goes, you teach your children in front of the church and your wife by your pillow. But Mr. Hou said nothing to me. The pale and thin Yuan Niang was lying quietly on the bed, her clothes and quilt were clean and scattered.

It smelled faintly. Her big eyes were filled with tears. She knew clearly that I was interested in Jiang Bai's daughter, but she chose Jiang Song's daughter without even thinking about it. Jiang Song's daughter is only ten months younger than Brother Zhun.

.Women are naturally older than men. When the time comes, won’t they look like Brother Chen’s mother?

Yes, yes, yes. The madam kept nodding: It's all the mistress's fault. If I say something to him, I will definitely say it to him. The eldest madam held the daughter-in-law's hand. I asked him to stay with you, right?

The couple had a quarrel, no, there wasn't even a quarrel, and the husband, who was an important official of the court, had to accomplice his wife. If word got out, wouldn't the name of a shrew be firmly pinned on her head?

Yuan Niang leaned weakly on the pillow and shook her head gently, but a smile broke out at the corner of her mouth. She didn't know whether she was laughing at herself or the madam.

Turning his head to the side, he saw a pair of black and white soap boots under the screen in front of the bedroom door.

At this time, in this place, who else could be there besides Xu Lingyi.

He stood behind the screen, was he ashamed of himself or did he disdain to see himself?

There was a trace of ridicule in her eyes, and she said quietly: Mom, do you still remember what happened when I first entered the house?

Yuan Niang suddenly mentioned this, and Mrs. Tai was startled.

At that time, my second sister-in-law was still in charge. She looked reminiscing. I heard that the two rabbits in the back garden were fostered by the Queen, so I took the initiative to ask my second sister-in-law to feed the two rabbits every day. As a result, the two rabbits were kept at home.

A rabbit was raised to death. You spent a lot of effort to find two identical ones and got through.

There was a smile on Mrs. Tai's face when she heard this: You were holding the rabbit cage and crying so sadly.

At that time, I thought, the second sister-in-law is your favorite, the third sister-in-law is smart and can talk, but I am not as good as them in everything, so I try to stand out in everything to please you. After saying this, Yuan Niang grabbed the hand of Mrs. Tai.

.Mom, I really want to be your good wife. I’m just stupid and can’t do it well. Don’t blame me.

She saw the boots behind the screen moving a few times uneasily.

Listening to these last words, and looking at her daughter-in-law's pale to transparent face, the wife's eyes couldn't help but get slightly wet: I have always known that you are filial. Stop talking and recuperate. After saying that, she put the maid aside on the tray with her own hands.

He took the small blue and white porcelain bowl in his hand.

There are thinly sliced ​​ginseng slices in the bowl.

Come on, take a piece.

Yuan Niang shook her head. Yuan Niang's dark eyes were fixed on the Madam, revealing a hint of sincerity: Mom, I'm fine, I just want to talk to you.

She also took the ginseng in her mouth before speaking. The madam smiled and coaxed her, and her tone was as doting as a child.

Yuan Niang declined politely: I will take it again when I can sleep, the effect will be better.

The madam knew her temper and thought what she said made sense, so she didn't force her. She sighed softly and handed the bowl to the maid beside her: "Then remember to take the ginseng slices in your mouth before going to bed."

Yes, Yuan Niang nodded obediently.

Since the daughter-in-law said she had something to say to her, it was just something that made her so angry that she vomited blood today. She had just received the Geng Tie, and there were still many things to do in the future. It was impossible to bypass the mother.

The thought flashed across her mind, and Mrs. Tai spoke first: Yuanniang, what happened to Brother Zhun is our fault. Although Jiang Song’s daughter is only ten months younger than Brother Zhun, Jiang Song has no official position, and our family

She is from a meritorious family and has a queen. If she wants to be safe and smooth, she can only act cautiously, keep a low profile and tolerate the slight look of shame on her face.

Mother, I know. Yuan Niang smiled and interrupted Mrs. Tai. You and the Marquis are both knowledgeable people. I know there is a reason for you to do this. I am just angry that the Marquis will not discuss it with me. She said,

She pursed her lips and smiled, "Mom, I didn't mean to say this. I was afraid that if I closed my eyes, I would never have the chance to talk to you about what's on my mind."

The more Yuanniang doesn't talk to her about what's in her heart, the more it means she keeps this matter in her heart.

But in this case, it was hard for the wife to insist on talking about this topic.

She had no choice but to pretend to be angry and said with a straight face: Nonsense. You are still young. Brother Zhun has not yet married a wife. I am still counting on you to provide for me in my old age. As she talked, thinking that my wife has only been holding on for the past few years, her eyes trembled.

There is a bit of water shine.

I know my own affairs. Yuan Niang turned her eyes to the screen and lowered her voice, with a touch of sadness. I am the eldest daughter at home, and my parents are as precious as treasures. Later, when I got married here, you treated me like your own child, Hou.

I respect everything. A woman like me has nothing to regret. But I can’t let go of Brother Chen, I can’t let you, I can’t let go. As the Marquis said, his tears fell down, and he sobbed a few times, as if he was out of breath for a moment.

As if he was out of breath, he suddenly covered his chest and coughed.

The update may not take place until early in the morning. Everyone, please go to bed first and watch it when you wake up tomorrow.
