Chapter 77: Pink Ticket 48o

After drinking Wuniang's homecoming wine, Qiniang and her second wife returned to Shandong. A few days later, the second wife sent someone to bring a letter saying that Qiniang had arranged a marriage. The other party's name was Zhu Anping, a native of Gaoqing County, Shandong Province, and this year At the age of twenty-two, he went on an errand to command the envoy Qian of the ancestors.

The old man couldn't help but frown after hearing this: How did he find such a family? Is it possible to leave Qiniang alone in Shandong in the future?

The ancestors of the Luo family borrowed money from Jiangnan and will return to Jiangnan in the future. The second master cannot be an official in Shandong all his life. What the elder said makes sense.

The eldest wife asked Mother Xu to receive the letter and said with a smile: After all, this is the second uncle’s family matter, and it’s not easy for us to take care of it. Besides, didn’t our fifth mother also marry in Sichuan? Maybe others will look at us the same way as we look at the second uncle. Like an uncle

That's different. The elder immediately said, Qian Ming is talented.

Are you so sure that Mr. Zhu has no talent?

The old man stopped talking.

The eldest wife then discussed with the eldest man: Speaking of which, Qiniang is only two months younger than Brother Xing. Do you think it would be better to arrange a marriage for Brother Xing? Firstly, he is not young, and secondly, he has a daughter-in-law to take care of him. He can also make progress.

Well, the old man nodded, you have thought very carefully. Just worry more about this matter.

See what the master said. The eldest lady smiled and said, this is my responsibility.

The eldest man sighed: Thanks to you Brother Xing in our family these years, and Shiniang said, shaking her head.

The corners of the eldest lady's mouth turned up: Master, it's all my fault. I didn't teach them well. But don't worry, I will definitely spend more energy on them in the future.

Just as he was talking, a little maid came to report: Sir, Madam, the Commander-in-Chief of Huwei Camp of the Imperial Guard, Mr. Wang, is here to visit.

The eldest man and the eldest lady exchanged a look.

Go meet the guests quickly. The eldest lady smiled and said, the Wang family is also a very good marriage, and you have met the prince. Moreover, Shiniang is getting older. After passing this village, I am afraid there will be no such shop.

The elder nodded, and then he and Mr. Wang set the date of appointment on May 20th.

The eldest wife and the eldest wife began to buy a dowry for Shi Niang.

Shi Niang ran to the eldest lady and said she was going to Baiyun to visit.

The eldest lady looked at her and smiled softly: You are a girl to be married, why are you running around?

She said nothing and found a ladder to climb over the wall. The ladies quickly went to tell the eldest lady. The eldest lady hadn't spoken yet. The eldest man's face turned purple with anger: "Let her climb for me. No one can stop me, but I want to see." , how courageous is she?

The eldest lady hurriedly stopped the eldest man: No, no, we still have a marriage contract with the Wang family. She winked and asked Mother Xu and Mother Jiang to pull her down with the helpless mother-in-law.

The elder couldn't beat her like he did Luo Zhensheng, so after thinking for a long time, he had her locked in the room and not allowed to go anywhere.

Shiniang looked at the eldest man, her eyes like thousand-year-old ice: What are you afraid of? I won’t allow you even if I go out to play. What are you afraid of? It’s just a government palace. I don’t know when our Luo family will have to rely on in-laws to live. .

It just hit the old man's sore spot.

Ever since he learned about Yuan Niang's will, which said that when Yuan Niang's filial piety period was over, Eleven Niang would marry into the Xu family, the eldest man tossed and turned for several days without falling asleep. Although Eleven Niang married into the Xu family to enjoy happiness. But he is also afraid that people will say that he is a clinging dragon and a phoenix. The Luo family is not as good as before. If he is still in power, how can he be afraid of these things?

The elder stepped forward and slapped Shiniang.

Shi Niang covered her mouth and smiled: Do you have the ability to call off this marriage?

If you retreat, retreat, the old man is furious.

The eldest lady stood in front of the eldest man: Are you talking nonsense about marriage being a child's play? Just back off. Mother Xu, help Miss Eleven Niang back to have a good rest. Starting from tomorrow, she will do some needlework so as not to do this every day.

Being idle makes people so idle that they don’t know what’s important.

Who is Mama Xu? As soon as the eldest lady opened her mouth, she and Mama Jiang were holding Shiniang to the left and right. As soon as the eldest lady finished speaking, the two of them were already holding Shiniang and walking out.

Shi Niang laughed: You sold your daughter for glory.

The eldest man fell to the ground without breathing. The eldest lady turned pale with fright and hurriedly called the doctor.

He also called Eleven Niang to come to the bedside to attend to his illness.

It happened that Wu Niang sent Ziwei to bring bean cakes. After hearing about it, she immediately wanted to see the elder. When Qian Mingzheng and Wu Niang were inseparable, they heard that Wu Niang was going back to her parents' home and asked what was going on. Wu Niang told the truth.

.

Qian Ming was very surprised when he heard that Shiniang was making trouble for this matter: she married the Duke of Mao

Wu Niang nodded: "Ten Niang has been like this since she was a child. If you ask her to go east, she will go west. If you ask her to go west, she will go east. Look at me getting married, but she won't even give it to me."

Send it to me. Qimei even came here from Shandong.

Then let's go take a look together. After hearing this, Qian Ming immediately ordered the boy to call a car, because he was afraid that I might be needed somewhere.

Wu Niang and Qian Ming rushed over.

After getting married, Wu Niang wore her hair in a bun, and her already pretty face became even more charming, with her eyes and eyebrows glowing with joy. It was obvious that she was living a good life.

The sister had seen the gift, but before she could say a word, the eldest lady had already pulled her to complain: Tell me, how else should I treat her, short of cutting off her legs and making soup for her to drink?

The old man lying on the bed coughed and asked someone to make a pot of Wuyi tea for the fifth uncle.

Qian Ming said hurriedly: How dare you take it? How dare you take it?

When he looked up, he saw an exquisite and delicate face.

His heart skipped a beat.

I couldn't help but take another look.

His dark eyes were surprisingly calm and peaceful.

Wu Niang noticed that her husband was acting strangely, and she immediately smiled and said, "It's my eleventh sister."

Qian Ming lowered his eyelids and said with a smile: It's really rude, I didn't expect to meet Eleven Sister here.

Eleven Niang didn’t like Qian Ming’s gaze.

It's like looking at an antique vase. Although I praise it, I want to know more about its craftsmanship, its age, and how much it's worth.

But she still slightly bent her knees and saluted him.

Don't dare to take it, don't dare to take it. Qian Ming is a little panicked.

My family, you don’t have to be so polite. The eldest wife left the couple here to eat, and your eldest brother will come back later.

Qian Ming was very generous and said with a smile: I happened to have some intellectual confusion and wanted my father to give me some advice.

The eldest man boasted that he was somewhat talented in learning. He was naturally very happy after hearing what Qian Ming said. He left Qian Ming to talk in front of the bed while the eldest wife and the big-breasted, fifth and eleventh mothers went to the main room.

The eldest wife went to the kitchen to arrange dinner, and the eldest wife asked Eleven Niang: Go and see how Eleven Niang is doing.

Eleven Niang left in response.

The eldest lady asked Wu Niang quietly: "I remember your little life these days, have you come yet?"

Wu Niang nodded shyly.

Are there any Ziwei people?

Wu Niang shook her head: He said that if you treat her like a sister, it will be the same if you find a good family to marry in the future.

The eldest lady was startled and said with a smile: You are a lucky person. Her smile was a bit forced.

But Wu Niang was sincere: she said that I was blessed, and this blessing was also given by my mother.

Eleven Niang was ordered to see Shi Niang.

She was leaning on the big bed by the window and reading a book.

Chronicles of the Nine Regions of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Eleven Niang was stunned.

That's her favorite book.

Mother Jiang, who had been waiting for Shiniang like a formidable enemy, said in a low voice: She won't cry or make trouble when she comes back. What will she do if she takes the book in her hand?

Eleven Niang didn't know either, so she stood for a moment.

Shiniang kept reading with her head down, her expression serious, as if she was immersed in the wonderful content of the book and had no time to worry about anything else.

Eleven Niang told her to take good care of her and went to the eldest lady's house.

Wu Niang took the beauty hammer and beat the eldest lady on the shoulders while talking to the eldest lady. Both of their faces were filled with happy smiles.

Seeing Eleven Niang, the eldest lady smiled and said: Why, Eleven Niang is feeling better?

It's better. Eleven Niang said with a smile, she was leaning on the kang and reading a book.

The eldest lady nodded, and instead of talking about Shi Niang, she asked Eleven Niang: "Don't you often read those Jiuyu Chronicles? You know how many days' journey it takes to get to Jinan Prefecture."

Eleven Niang was shocked when she heard this. After a moment she said: The book said it was more than nine hundred miles. I think it was about ten days.

The eldest lady nodded and said with a smile: Then you and I will go to Shandong to visit relatives.

Wu Niang explained: Mother said that when Qiniang gets married, we will go to Shandong to have a wedding banquet together.

OK, Eleven Niang smiled, looking very happy.

Her expression pleases the eldest lady: I ​​think the wedding will take place not this winter but next spring. Then we will ask old Jixiang to do the wedding ceremony and Xianling Pavilion to make the clothes. Let's go out and walk around.

Both Wu Niang and Eleven Niang agreed, and the eldest wife was even more interested. She talked about when she was a child and worked with her father in Shaanxi.

Just as they were talking about the excitement, a little maid reported: The uncle is back.

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Zhenxing had already lifted the curtain and walked in.
