Chapter 741 Dinner
Grandma didn't give up, so she was asked one more time. The Yuan family said bluntly that if her biological mother was still around, this marriage would be the best.
The implication is that because of this stepmother, it is impossible for the Yuan family to marry the Zhou family.
Zhou Yuqing sighed, "What do you know? How long do you think father can be an official? How can there be eggs under a nest? I don't have time to find a piece of driftwood now. If it's me, forget it. I can't let An Ge'er be ruined like this for the rest of my life, and I can't let my mother's spirit in heaven feel at ease."
Shuangyin burst into tears, and she handed the handkerchief to Zhou Yuqing, "Girl, what should we do now?"
"Tomorrow, Aunt Sun will have a flower party in the other courtyard. I went and got this opportunity to recommend Wei Pu. Thank you for your family's love of talent. The princess will definitely take a fancy to his talent. If you can use it, today I have Wei Pu and I." According to Pu's promise, he will definitely protect my brother and me."
"But girl, are you really going to marry a blind man?"
"Although he is blind in his eyes, he is not blind in his heart. There is nothing wrong with such a person. Although he is a little poorer, he is not a thing in the pool. I am looking at the future."
Zhou Yuqing's voice was extremely firm, and it was better to say it to herself than to Shuangyin.
Li Erxun got married in his thirties, and his wife was the Sun family of Yishui, who was more than ten years younger than Li Erxun. The family had one wife and one concubine, and lived a very happy life.
Li Erxun just bought a small manor at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain the year before last, with a total of three yards. Because it is really small, the Sun family gave it to the Yan family of the Zuo Shenzheng family and the Ding family of the inspector. Mrs. Li, Mrs. Zhang, the wife of Governor Chen Kui, posted a post and made a special trip to invite Xie Zhiwei and Cui Nanwan.
It has been quite a while since Xie Zhiwei came to the border of Hebei. Originally, according to the rules, she came. As the highest-ranking foreign life woman here, Mrs. Chen, she should invite some wives to introduce Xie Zhiwei to him, and also to welcome Xie Zhiwei. Who knows , The two turned against each other, and so many things happened that Mrs. Sun didn't dare to post a post to Mrs. Chen after she invited Xie Zhiwei.
Mr. Yan, Mrs. Li, and Mrs. Zhang each brought their own girls, fearing that it would be impolite to fall behind Xie Zhiwei, they came one after another as soon as the hour passed.
Xie Zhiwei and Cui Nanwan only came at 3:00 pm, about half an hour before the usual banquet opening time, so it can be said that the timing was just right.
"Who are here?"
Seeing the other courtyard of the Li family, Xie Zhiwei asked the woman who was following the car, the woman was a shrewd person, and hurriedly said, "The wife of Zhao Canzheng's family brought her daughter Zhao Baohua and her concubine Zhao Yuehua, and Mrs. Li from Mr. Ding's family. Ding Jiahui, the concubine, and the two daughters of Mrs. Chen's wife are here."
Xie Zhiwei let out an "um" and lowered the curtain.
When the carriage arrived at the door, Mrs. Sun came out to welcome her. Because the previous meeting and discussion were very pleasant, and Mrs. Sun's personality was extremely bold, she personally stepped forward to help Xie Zhiwei get off the carriage, "It's a pity that I don't have a daughter, and I gave birth to two disobedient ones. Otherwise, I will entrust my daughter to you to help raise her, and I will not worry about getting married in the future."
Xie Zhiwei helped her by the hand and got out of the car. Hearing this, he couldn't help laughing, and looked Sun Shi up and down, "I don't believe what you said. With a mother like you, your daughter is still worried about getting married? I can tell you Having said that, if you have a daughter in the future, I really want to stay with you and raise it, how about being a goddaughter for me?"
Cui Nanwan supported her hand, jumped lightly, and fell to the ground.
Sun said with a smile, "You are the person I envy the most. You are the only person who can live so freely in this world. In this life, I have only met you."
Cui Nanwan smiled, "I admire you the most. Your mouth is like honey, it's so sweet."
Sun laughed loudly, "Why don't you come and lick it, did I put honey on it?"
Xie Zhiwei couldn't help bursting out laughing, Cui Nanwan was a little embarrassed, her face turned red, and she reached out to pinch Sun's mouth, "I'll pinch it!"
Mr. Sun dodged, and the three entered the second door together.
"My yard is not big. When our master was transferred here, there was no land at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain. After waiting for a long time, I waited for such a small yard. The previous owner of this house was a rich man. The property left by his ancestors was later , the rich man heard that he was going to do business, something happened, he died outside, and his family lost all of a sudden, so he sold the yard."
Sun said with a smile, "Compared to the princess's yard, it is really not worth seeing. I invite the princess to come, just to have a good day. I also invited a few accompanying guests. The princess will get to know each other in a while."
Xie Zhiwei said "Okay", and when they arrived at the West Flower Hall, a burst of coolness rushed over. Mrs. Sun pointed to a pond outside and said, "This half-acre square pond was dug last year. A spring on the mountain flows here. This spring I planted a few water lilies in Shangyi, and they still bloomed, otherwise, I don’t know what to see if I invite the princess to come.”
"This place is very good!" Xie Zhiwei sat down in front of the window, looked out through the flower window, saw a few wild ducks swimming in the square pond, along the square pond, a lot of wormwood grew, and there were a few A cluster of unknown little flowers is full of wildness.
Cui Nanwan also said, "It's not bad, I also built a house here, but I haven't had time to repair it yet. Another day, I'll make such a place in the yard, plant some lotus root, and raise a few ducks."
Xie Zhiwei said, "I have an idea for your yard, I will draw it for you later, you can see, how to add and subtract, and repair it according to that picture, how about it?"
"That's a good idea!" Cui Nanwan clapped her palms and smiled, just in time, there is something to do in this scorching summer, which can still pass the time.
The Li family's other courtyard is not as bad as Sun's said. There is a small courtyard of two or three acres in the back. Behind the courtyard, several towering trees surround the courtyard, half of the courtyard is covered, and the roses all over the wall are in full bloom. , a few golden pheasants were fed so that they were not afraid of strangers, pacing around, wandering around in the yard, making several young ladies laugh endlessly.
Ding Jiahui glanced at Chen Lingding calmly, she thought for a while, walked over, and took Chen Lingding's hand, "Miss Chen, let's go boating in the river tomorrow, our family brought a boat girl, from my pond, Open the door and you can enter the river, which is fun."
Chen Lingting pulled out her hand calmly, looked at her vigilantly, and was thinking of how to refuse, when she saw the woman next to Sun coming, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's go over and see if Princess Chen is here. ?”
"Hey, okay!" Ding Jiahui complained that Xie Zhiwei came at an untimely time, and wanted to get close to Chen Lingding. She didn't know what to say, so she said in a low voice, "I heard that Princess Chen's cousin is divorced. Tell me, If she is a good daughter-in-law of the Hou Mansion, why don't you reconcile?"
The first update!
