No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 87 Rejecting Concubine (Part [-])
Early in the morning, the atmosphere in Rong Le Hall was unusually tense.

Even Shen Lingxiang, who was always favored by Mrs. Luo, sat obediently beside Luo, not daring to say much.

Only Luo Jinxing stood aside, staring at Mrs. Luo without giving in.

Mrs. Luo was so angry that her fingers trembled, but she didn't see any intention of giving in. If outsiders saw her like this, an unfilial hat would be unavoidable.

Beside Mrs. Luo, stood Chen Yuer, who was flushed and embarrassed.

Luo Jinyan sat on the side, no longer the usual smile on his face, with a little bit of anger.

Su Shi and Luo Mingxiang sat quietly at the bottom, Su Shi looked at Luo Jinxing and frowned slightly.

Mrs. Luo couldn't get anything cheap from her grandson, so she naturally poured her anger on Su Shi.Pointing at Su Shi, he said angrily: "Look! You are also a mother for others, so you taught Jin Xing to contradict me, a grandmother?!"

Outside the door, Luo Junyao couldn't help laughing secretly in his heart.

When the Su family married into the Luo family, Luo Jinxing had already been taken to the border by Luo Yun to be educated, and the number of times he had returned to Shangyong over the years could be counted on one finger.

Neither had spent a few days together, let alone taught.

Mrs. Su obviously knew Mrs. Luo's temper, so she was not in a hurry to defend herself, but said: "Mother, what you say is not unreasonable. Seeing that both words and deeds should be kissed, this is just right. Before entering the room, he took the concubine room and entered the door. How can a good family who loves the girl be willing to marry the girl?"

Mrs. Luo obviously didn't like this, she snorted coldly and said: "Don't fool me, although I am not from a wealthy family, I have lived here for more than 20 years. I am 24 years old, and I am willing to act." He's over 20, for a boy of this age, which room doesn't have many people?"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Luo Jinyan and said, "I know, you just look down on your cousin and despise her from the countryside. She is not worthy of you, the eldest son of Dingguo's mansion."

Luo Jinxing couldn't help but said: "Grandmother! You have to let eldest brother accept Chen's cousin as a concubine. What's wrong with elder brother not wanting to?"

Mrs. Luo said angrily: "Shut up, I'm asking about your elder brother, so you need to rush out to speak for him? What do you mean there is nothing wrong? He is wrong if he disobeys his grandmother's words!"

Luo Jinxing couldn't help rolling his eyes, "Brother hasn't married yet, what's wrong with not wanting to take a concubine? Besides, since grandma brought the cousin of the Chen family to the capital, she should arrange a good family for her. If the third uncle Wouldn't it be sad for the master to know that you made his granddaughter a concubine?"

Mrs. Luo said: "Nonsense! There are three ways to be unfilial, and having no offspring is the greatest. You and Jinyan, when your grandfather was this age, your uncles could run around! And Yu'er, what kind of good family can Than staying at my own home makes me feel at ease? I love her so much that I keep her in Luo's house, and if I'm gone in the future, can you still bully her as a family relative?"

Su's courteous Luo Jin, who still wanted to talk back, gave him a wink to signal him not to speak, and said to Mrs. Luo in a low voice: "Mother, we all know your painstaking efforts. It's just a marriage of careful words and deeds, and the general also cares about it." Very good. There are indeed quite a few sons and young masters of other families who are surrounded by housewives and concubines when they have just grown up. But how can those people compare to our two children? How can a good family who is really good and caring for girls be willing to give up? Let the girl marry such a person? Taking a concubine is really impossible right now. If it gets out, wouldn’t it make Miss Chen unable to deal with herself? It’s better to wait a little longer until we decide on a marriage that is careful in words and deeds Besides, what do you think?"

Mrs. Luo looked at Luo Jinyan, "Jinyan, what do you say?" Mrs. Luo also knew that Su's words were not completely unreasonable.

There was a moment of silence in the hall, only Luo Jin said: "No."

The atmosphere in the hall became more dignified, and Chen Yuer blushed even more with embarrassment, and the tears in her eyes barely fell.

Luo said in a low voice, "I would like to say, mother is also for the sake of the younger generation, so don't be stubborn with her. Yu'er is also willing to follow you... She is not wronged."

Luo Jinyan took a look at Chen Yuer and said: "Don't take what grandma said to my cousin, you can live in peace of mind when you arrive at Luo's house. You can tell grandma and mother what you think in the future. Father is your cousin, and I and I Jinxing is also your brother."

The implication is that the Luo family can be her reliance.

But neither he nor Luo Jinxing will marry Chen Yuer.

Chen Yu'er whimpered, couldn't stand the words anymore, covered her face and ran out.

Standing outside the door, Luo Junyao watched Chen Yuer run past him, winked at Lanyin to signal her to follow and watch, and then lightly lifted the hem of her skirt and stepped into the hall.

"Grandmother, mother. Jun Yao is late, please forgive me." Luo Junyao walked into the hall and bowed to Mrs. Luo in a polite manner.

Mrs. Luo was in a bad mood, she glanced at Luo Jun and said coldly: "Second Miss is really early."

Luo Jinxing was also in a bad mood, and couldn't help but choked when he saw this, "Isn't this the time to greet you in the past? Yaoyao is not late. Nuanxinyuan is the farthest from Rongletang, so it is normal for her to be late."

Rongle Hall and Nuanxin Garden are the two most exquisitely decorated gardens in the entire Luo Mansion, but they happen to be on both sides of the Luo Mansion.Not only are the two gardens quite large in size, but the corridors are winding and winding, and there is a huge garden in between. It takes a long time just to walk over.

"You, you..." Mrs. Luo didn't expect that Luo Jinxing would have trouble with her everywhere today, she was really angry, she pointed at Luo Jinxing and was speechless for a while.

Luo Jun said in a crisp voice: "It's Jun Yao's fault, grandma, don't get angry, otherwise daddy should be in a hurry."

Mrs. Luo looked at her, "Now your father and Jin Yan are protecting you, are you happy?"

Luo Jun shook his head and said: "Of course I am happy that my elder brother and second elder brother love me. My elder brother, my second elder brother, and my father are all filial to my grandmother, so please don't be angry, grandmother. If you let outsiders know, you may think that your father can't teach your children. "

When mentioning her only son, Mrs. Luo became short of breath.

She hasn't told her son about asking Luo Jinyan to accept Chen Yu'er. She originally wanted to wait for Jinyan to agree to her before telling her son.Unexpectedly, what I thought was just a trivial matter, not only Luo Jinyan disagreed, but even Luo Jinxing jumped out to object.

Luo Junyao walked up to Luo Mingxiang and sat down, and continued: "Just now I saw the Chen family's cousin running out crying. Grandmother, didn't you embarrass the Chen family's cousin by saying this in front of so many people? Let the trouble go on, let the servants spread the word, how can Cousin Chen live in our house in the future?"

Mrs. Luo narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Luo Junyao. Yesterday, she heard from her adoptive daughter and granddaughter that this girl had changed a lot recently, but she didn't care.

At this time, she could clearly feel that this girl has indeed changed a lot. How could she be so eloquent in the past?
"You also think it's inappropriate for me to assign your cousin Chen to your elder brother?" Mrs. Luo asked.

Luo Jun said: "Brother is not happy, it's just inappropriate. Since you love Cousin Chen, grandma, you naturally want her to live in peace and beauty in the future. Brother, how can you be reconciled like this? Besides... how many daughters are willing How about being a concubine? But grandma brought Cousin Chen out and treated her so well, even if Cousin Chen didn’t want to, she was embarrassed to tell grandma, wouldn’t she just feel wronged in her heart? It’s so pitiful.”

Mrs. Luo snorted lightly and said, "How could you be wronged if you can marry Jinyan?"

Mrs. Luo obviously felt that her arrangement was the best of both worlds.

I have found a good object for Chen Yuer to entrust her life, and I am worthy of my natal brothers.And it doesn't delay the eldest grandson's future marriage, after all, she only asks to take Chen Yu'er as a concubine, doesn't she?
She, the eldest grandson of the Luo family, of course wants to marry a well-connected and distinguished girl.

The fairy master in the Taoist temple in his hometown said that Yu'er is a good child.

This couldn't be more important to Mrs. Luo, whose eldest grandson is over 20 years old and eager to embrace her great-grandson.

These daughters in the capital are all skinny, as if they could be broken by the wind. How can they give birth to healthy and strong children?

Luo Junyao blinked at Luo Jinyan, expressing that there was nothing he could do.

Luo Jinyan smiled at her and didn't care.

Holding back the younger brother who wanted to say something, Luo Jinyan said sternly: "Grandmother, grandson is just like his father, and his ambition is on the battlefield. It is enough for father and mother to choose a wife and a pair of children in the future, and there is no need for concubines." Thoughts. Please forgive me, grandma."

Seeing Luo Jinyan's serious expression, Mrs. Luo obviously made up her mind.

Although she didn't take him seriously, Mrs. Luo also knew that this kind of thing could not be forced, so she couldn't help but look at Luo Jinxing.

Luo Jinxing was taken aback, jumped up and ran out the door, "Grandmother, don't tell me about this, brother is right, I only think of Cousin Chen as my own sister, I have no other intentions !"

When the voice fell, he had already disappeared outside the door.

Mrs. Luo was angry, "He is..."

Luo Jinyan lowered his eyes and said in a warm voice: "Yesterday he delayed his return home with Yaoyao and missed his grandmother's welcome banquet. His father punished him to go to the army to be punished today. I'm afraid he won't have time for half a month."

It's not that Mrs. Luo really doesn't care about her grandson, she is a little anxious now, "Go to the army and be punished for half a month? Is it serious?"

Luo Jin said: "He did something wrong, no matter how serious it is, he deserves it."

Mrs. Luo frowned and said: "It's not a big deal, he just came back from the border, so don't get hurt and tired."

Luo Jin said: "Grandmother don't worry, father knows well."

Mrs. Luo was speechless for a while, looking at Luo Junyao who was sitting with Luo Mingxiang intimately, and then at Luo Jinyan and Su Shi who had downcast eyes and a light expression.

For a moment, I felt a sense of powerlessness in my heart, and I didn't bother to say what I wanted to reprimand Luo Junyao, so I waved them back.

Luo Jinyan got up and saluted respectfully, "Then let's take our leave first, and grandma has a good rest."

"Grandmother has a good rest, and Jun Yao will come to greet you tomorrow."

Mrs. Luo didn't speak, her eyes flicked across the faces of Luo Jinyan and Su's, and she felt that the eldest grandson's expression was somewhat similar to that of Su's.

No, it should be said to be like his biological mother, Lin Shi.

However, this is her own grandson, not Lin who can make things difficult for her at will.

As an elderly person, she is not willing to embarrass her son and grandson, but they just don't have the same heart with her.

Back then, she didn't like Lin Shi, so it was fine if her son married, but because Lin Shi didn't like it, she resolutely refused to listen to her and take a concubine.If not, how could the son still only have two sons and one daughter?
Now it's like this again, and the grandson doesn't listen to him!

Thinking of this, Mrs. Luo couldn't help feeling sad and depressed.

　The old lady's ideas are more stubborn and strange when she is old, but she is only a bit of the best, not a vicious grandmother, and there will not be many scenes in the future~~
