Chapter 13 A Chance Encounter at the Wang House

Chapter 13 A Chance Encounter at the Wang House
Cripple Chen and his relatives pulled Chen Man'er home with a smile. All Chen Xiuyan saw was Chen Man'er's vicious eyes.

But Chen Xiuyan is not afraid.

The surrounding villagers laughed and talked about the scene when Chen Man'er was sent by the Liu family yesterday.

"It was delivered in a carriage. It seems that Young Master Liu likes Man'er very much."

"I saw that the butler of Liu's house gave Chen Lizi several silver ingots, a lot of money."

"Tch, you can get so much by selling your daughter."

"It's because Carpenter Chen's family loves their daughter and is reluctant to let her be a concubine. What's more, Chen Man'er is just a housemaid now, so she is a slave."

……

With Chen Man'er as a foil, the villagers have changed their views on Chen Xiuyan, especially the women, who would rather marry someone who is celibate than concubine. They have integrity and have a bottom line.

On March 23, a matchmaker hired by the Luo family came to discuss the wedding date with the Chen family, and the date was set on April [-]. Although they were a little anxious, the Luo family followed the process very well.

Now the marriage of the two families is officially settled.

"Mother, I'm going to the county." After seeing off the matchmaker, Chen Xiuyan wanted to go to the county, so she had to find a way to go to the Wang family.

"The betrothed person needs to embroider the wedding dress at home, and you don't know how to do the work in the kitchen. Recently, I asked your second sister-in-law to teach you well, and you are not allowed to go out." Liu said righteously.

"Mother, Luo Wenqian's family has a simple population, and there are no elders above to make my rules, and the five of them, uncles and nephews, have grown up so safely, so eating will be no problem." Chen Xiuyan didn't care.

Chen Xiuyan's decision to choose Luo Wenqian as her husband was also very thoughtful. She is good-looking, able to read, capable, with a simple family and no in-laws. Just kidding, such a person is a candidate for a high-quality husband in modern times.

"Mother, when I get married, how can I go out as I like, and I will be an aunt as soon as I enter the Luo family. There is no chance." Chen Xiuyan held Liu Shi's arm, and rubbed her head against her shoulder, so that Liu Shi let go of her mouth all of a sudden.

"Mother thinks it's really good for you to marry Wen Qian." Liu said with emotion, "Now you speak like a lady of every family. What you say is said by scholars, and some mothers can't understand it."

I'm so smart, Chen Xiuyan spoke for herself in her heart, but Luo Wenqian has to credit all the credit now, thinking that she was also a top student who was admitted to a prestigious university before the doomsday came, it was just a four-character idiom, for her What's the problem.

"Mom, then I'm leaving. I'll go early and return early." Chen Xiuyan went out happily, and went to take a donkey cart today. What was new was that someone greeted her this time.

"Xiuyan, we're engaged, are we going to prepare a dowry?" The butcher's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Wang, greeted Chen Xiuyan, and even gave Chen Xiuyan a reason to go to the county.

"Auntie." Chen Xiuyan gave the same feedback to those who greeted her with a smiling face. She was already good-looking, but because her smile softened her entire face, Wang was stunned.

"Oh, it's so pretty, Xiuyan, you should smile more." Because of Chen Xiuyan's resolute refusal to be a concubine, Wang has a better impression of her, "We will be together again when we come back. Take care."

Chen Xiuyan nodded with a smile. The donkey cart back to the village was not yet on its way. Now it was just over [-] o'clock. Excluding the journey, it was enough to stay in the county for nearly two hours.

After Chen Xiuyan entered the county seat, she went straight to the mansion of Wang Dianli's family. Generally, county magistrates live in the county government office, but Wang Dianli is from Yijiang County and has lived here for generations. The mansion is a rare mansion in the county seat. There is no one in Yijiang County who doesn't know Wang Zhai.

Chen Xiuyan looked at the house occupying the intersection of streets and alleys, measured the length and width with her feet, and the house occupied an area of ​​nearly [-] square meters, and her tongue clicked in her heart.

"What are you doing here?" Chen Xiuyan, who was looking at the majestic gate of the palace, was not frightened by the sudden question. She had already sensed the sight behind her and the familiar aura. She didn't need to look at Chen Xiuyan to know that it was Luo Wenqian. .

"I was trying to figure out how to get in." Chen Xiuyan turned her head to look at Luo Wenqian, and blurted out what was on her mind.

Today Luo Wenqian was wearing a light blue gown, a silver hair crown on his head, and a book in his hand. Chen Xiuyan saw the name of the book "The Analects of Confucius" at a glance.

"What are you going in for?" Luo Wenqian frowned slightly when he heard Chen Xiuyan's words, but he didn't show any surprise.

"It's just that I've never seen such a big house. I'm curious." Chen Xiuyan lied without looking sideways.

Luo Wenqian thought it was a little funny, he was getting more and more curious about himself as his fiancée, thinking of the place that girls yearn for in Wang's house, "Want to go to girls' school?"

Chen Xiuyan's eyes showed doubts, female students?

It seems that this is not the reason, Luo Wenqian stared at Chen Xiuyan, who tilted her head slightly and stared at her wide-eyed eyes suddenly a little itchy, and those buns seemed easy to touch.

"Is there a girls' school in the palace?" Chen Xiuyan's voice made Luo Wenqian look away.

"Well, the ladies from all the big families in the county government are also studying in the women's school in Wang's house. Mrs. Wang invited a famous lady wife, and many girls from rich families also asked Mrs. Wang to enter the women's school." Luo Wenqian explained.

"If you want to go, I can tell Master Wang..."

"No, no need." Chen Xiuyan couldn't wait to wave her hands to politely refuse, jokingly, she is a person who has received education in the 21st century, if she came to the ancient times and asked herself to learn the precepts of female students, it would be a shame.

"Miss Chen—"

Luo Wenqian and Chen Xiuyan looked at the same time, and the person who came was the treasurer Yan of Renjitang, followed by a young apprentice holding a wooden box.

"Shopkeeper Yan." Chen Xiuyan immediately smelled the smell of ginseng in the wooden box. Needless to say, it must be the one she sold to Renjitang, and an idea came to her mind.

"Is Shopkeeper Yan here to deliver ginseng to Mrs. Wang?" Chen Xiuyan said with a smile, "I wonder if I can be Shopkeeper Yan's drug boy today."

Shopkeeper Yan was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, with hesitation across his face.

Chen Xiuyan walked in and whispered, "To be honest, I still have some medical skills. If Mrs. Wang can get better today, shopkeeper Yan will be the first to contribute. Mr. Wang is the most filial and good official."

Chen Xiuyan's words hit shopkeeper Yan's itchy spot. If Mrs. Wang could be cured by Renjitang, she would be different. She should have the right to choose where to be shopkeeper.

"Ms. Chen is a great talent. I will trouble you to come into the palace with me today." Shopkeeper Yan made a decisive decision.

Luo Wenqian looked at Chen Xiuyan, who was laughing happily, having a good chat, and completely ignoring himself, and laughed angrily. He stuck his tongue out against his back molars, and was about to go forward, but what he saw were the two of Chen Xiuyan and Renjitang. The people left quickly and entered the gate of the palace.

I was really pissed off.
