Chapter 186 Marriage Proposal (Second Update)
Princess Sheng An introduced her family to Su Rong, and then dragged her to introduce the wives of various prefectures present. She was as kind as a grandmother introducing her granddaughter, and said in her mouth that everyone would take care of Xiao Qi in the future.
Ladies are shocked, but what is the identity of Princess Sheng An? Naturally, they are very face-saving. None of the wives sitting here are fools, Princess Qingping brought someone here, and Princess Rui'an gave a very rich meeting gift, the people in the Duke Protector's Mansion treated him like their own junior, this is a rare treatment for a concubine from any small place.
What's even more surprising is that Su Rong is neither humble nor overbearing, and has all the etiquette. She doesn't see the slightest bit of joy at being loved and cared for, nor does she see the slightest bit of embarrassment that can't let go.
Through this aspect, it broke the story that Master Liu played in the early court, that Su Xu's goddaughter had no way, and Su Rong was out of education. It's simply slander, no wonder Princess Qingping will furiously defend Su Rong, and that Master Liu will be dismissed from office.
After getting acquainted with all the wives and ladies, Princess Sheng An let go of Su Rong with a smile, "You little sisters, go and play!"
Princess Ruian called the Fourth Miss Xie Ying who was not out of the palace to her, introduced Su Rong, and then told Xie Yuan with a smile, "You can accompany all the ladies to play, and you must take good care of them."
Xie Ying took the order, "Mother and Concubine don't worry."
So, Xie Ying led Duan Hua, Su Rong, Zhou Yun, and a group of ladies out of the living room and took them to the back garden.
Rui’an Prince’s Mansion is very exquisite everywhere, and the servants in the mansion perform their duties in an orderly manner to entertain the guests who come to the mansion. Xie Ying led the people to the garden and water pavilion, "Let’s go to the Osmanthus Garden? The Jasmine Garden was taken by my brother and the young masters."
All the girls nodded.
The friendship between Duanhua and Xie Ying is decent, and he teased her with a smile, "Do you dare to take us to the Osmanthus Garden, are you not afraid that I will pick all the osmanthus flowers in your mansion to make osmanthus cakes?"
Xie Ying covered her mouth and smiled, "Osmanthus flowers are not worth much. If you want to make osmanthus cakes, you can pick them casually, and the concubine will not feel bad."
Duanhua thinks about it too. Daliang attaches great importance to the Mid-Autumn Festival. Almost every family has osmanthus trees. Every Mid-Autumn Festival, they eat moon cakes under the osmanthus trees to enjoy the moon. Osmanthus flowers are really not uncommon.
Duanhua said unconvinced: "What about jasmine?" She turned to Su Rong, "Can jasmine make tea?"
Su Rong coughed lowly, "Can you?"
Duanhua heard the words and said to Xie Ying: "What if I go to pick jasmine?"
Xie Ying still smiled, "The jasmine garden in our mansion is for smelling the fragrance, it is not a precious variety, even if you pick them all, the concubine mother will not feel bad. What's more, we also use it to make some jasmine tea, you don't have to pick it yourself, if you want to drink, I will give you a few jars later."
Duanhua giggled, "Okay."
After picking the chrysanthemums of the eldest princess, she has preferred all kinds of scented teas since then. As long as you see flowers, you first think about whether you can make tea.
A group of people walked to the Osmanthus Garden, passed the Jasmine Garden, and heard the bustle and bustle inside.
All the girls turned their heads to look, and saw many young gentlemen sitting or standing in the Jasmine Garden. After Xie Lin delivered Feng Ling, he didn't go out to pick up the guests, but accompanied Xie Lin, introducing him one by one.
Many young masters were afraid of being abrupt, and the ladies who passed by, and there were troublemakers, all restrained their movements.
All the girls walked over quickly, and the Jasmine Garden was bustling again.
One of the sons asked Xie Lin, "Brother Xie, is that very beautiful woman in the light green dress Miss Su Qi?"
Xie Lin nodded, "Well, it's Miss Su Qi."
The son heard the words and looked at Zhou Gu, wanting to say something, but because of Zhou Gu, he stopped talking.
The fifth son of Duke Cheng's mansion has not yet married, he is a beautiful woman, two years younger than the eldest son Lu Weiran, named Lu Xuecheng, he walked up to Zhou Gu, and said to Zhou Gu: "Brother Zhou, you divorced Miss Su Qi, right?"
Zhou Gu raised his eyelids and glanced at him, and said "En".
Lu Xuecheng rubbed his hands, "Since you have divorced, can I come to propose marriage?"
Zhou Gu narrowed his eyes, "Do as you please."
Lu Xuecheng was happy, "I will come to propose marriage tomorrow."
Feng Ling rolled her eyes while listening, this stinky **** still wants to propose marriage to his master? Without looking in the mirror, he immediately came over and hooked Lu Xuecheng's shoulder, "Brother Lu, my younger brother is right in front of you. What are you doing to ask Mr. Zhou? You can just ask me. I can also help you answer a few questions about my sister's marriage."
Lu Xuecheng turned his head quickly, "Oh? Brother Feng, yes, you are Miss Su Qi's younger brother, and I forgot about you. Tell me quickly."
Feng Ling rubbed her fingers, "My sister likes to be tall, that's one. My sister likes those with broad shoulders and narrow waist, well-proportioned stature, and doesn't like those who are too fat, too strong, or too dark. This is the second. My sister likes rich people. It's best if her private money can start at a minimum of 100,000 taels. , good personality, not lewd, and there are no concubines in the house, five of them."
He said five things in one breath. Seeing that Lu Xuecheng was stunned, he sighed, "I'll just tell you briefly, and of course, fifth brother Lu, can you do it? If you can't, I advise you not to come to the door, or you will definitely be kicked out by my sister. She doesn't look beautiful, but she is not soft-hearted, lest you be reduced to a joke."
Lu Xuecheng couldn't say what he could do, "You, you are not playing with me, are you?"
"How could it be?" Feng Ling said in a low voice, "Do you know why my sister resigned from Mr. Zhou's marriage? That's because he failed one of the qualifications. He has a bad temper."
Lu Xuecheng opened his eyes wide, and compared his five points with Zhou Gu one by one. It was true that only one had a bad temper, and the rest were all right. Although one hundred thousand taels of private house money is a lot, but Zhou Gu is favored, and the private treasury he has accumulated since he was a child should be very thick, and he can probably get it out.
He hesitated all of a sudden, "Then, forget it."
No matter how beautiful a person is, he can't meet these requirements.
He's not a fool, he won't think of ways to get Su Rong like Ning Ze. After all, the person who can resign Zhou Gu's marriage, and the person who let Princess Qingping protect her, just focus on this point, how can he calculate it.
Thank you for your monthly pass! In the last two days, babies will turn around again, don't waste it! Well~ See you tomorrow!
