Ruanjiaobao was forced to marry by Lord Hou again

When entering the main room of Haitang Zhai, many dishes had already been prepared on the food table, and everyone was seated.

Shen Zhan led Ye Lingwu down the hall, and the two let go of their hands and raised their arms together to bow to each other.

"Greetings to grandma, mother, second uncle, and second aunt." Shen Zhan said.

"Greetings to the old lady, mistress, second uncle, second aunt, and the two girls." Ye Lingwu followed.

Qin Mingyu turned a deaf ear with a stern face, Zhao Shi and Shen Congwen were polite and greeted twice with a smile, Shen Pan'er and Shen Yue'er only focused on the reaction of the crowd and didn't say anything.

In the end, the old lady Shen said, "Sit down, don't stand."

Ye Lingwu hesitated for a moment, and when she was hesitating whether to sit at the end of the table, Shen Zhan dragged her to Qin Mingyu's side, and was then pressed to kneel down beside him.

Everyone looked at each other.

Someone snickered in their hearts.

Seeing that Ye Lingwu was forced to be obedient in front of Shen Zhan, the two girls in the second room couldn't help sighing: If they got married, they wouldn't have to be restrained to death. It's really pitiful, but it's also really interesting.

Someone looked blank.

Zhao's eyes kept wandering between Shen Zhan and Ye Lingwu, and she remembered that her son also liked Ye Lingwu. At that time, she always felt that the two people's identities were very different and they were not a good match, but now she wanted to be her own. My niece and daughter-in-law couldn't tell what it was like.

Some people hate iron but not steel.

Qin Mingyu saw that her son was eager to hold the person beside him in his hand all the time, and he was already full before the meal was exhausted.

Some people are calm and indifferent.

Shen Congwen only returned to Beijing yesterday. Hearing Mr. Zhao talk about what happened in the capital and the Hou's mansion last night, he was surprised. There is nothing wrong with that.

It was quiet.

Only the sound of the maid serving the food could be heard.

Ye Lingwu was stiff all over, lowering her head slightly, just wanting to be a transparent person, but at this moment Shen Pan'er suddenly said loudly: "Big brother's wedding banquet is approaching, and the third sister hasn't decided what gift to give yet."

Shen Yue'er said: "The congratulatory gifts can be put aside first, I think congratulations should be done first. Congratulations to big brother and sister Lingwu."

"That's right, that's right," Shen Pan'er echoed, "I should congratulate first, congratulations to big brother and sister Lingwu on their wedding."

Shen Zhan slightly straightened his waist, arched his hands and said, "Thank you two sisters."

So far, there has been no communication at the family banquet.

After the banquet was over, Qin Mingyu asked Fu's mother to leave Ye Lingwu to talk in the side hall.

The hall was too quiet.

Ye Lingwu stepped into the room anxiously, and saw Qin Mingyu leaning on the Hu bed, white smoke was emitting from the incense burner on the small table at hand, and the surrounding flower windows were slightly opened, and the faint fragrance of crabapple flowers wafted in.

She approached lightly, Fushen said: "Mistress, you are looking for me."

Qin Mingyu slowly opened his eyes, looked at her quietly for a while, and then said: "Sit down first, and speak slowly."

Ye Lingwu sat down with an unnatural expression.

At this time, Qin Mingyu sat upright.

I don't know if it's because of being angry for several days, but Qin Mingyu didn't look as radiant as before, and the bright light red silk skirt on her body didn't improve her complexion either.

"Speaking of which, since you entered Beijing four years ago, I have never talked to you, and it seems that I have never even spoken a few words."

Ye Lingwu frowned, and said: "The mistress is busy with trivial matters in the house every day, and Lingwu is often in the Jinghe hall, so she doesn't have many opportunities to meet, so naturally she rarely talks."

Qin Mingyu chuckled unknowingly, then picked up the teacup on the small desk, slowly picked up the tea lid, blew on the tea inside a few times, took a sip, and then said: "These words are just excuses, I didn't like you from the first time I saw you, and naturally I don't want to talk to you."

Ye Lingwu has also been a mistress for three years, and now facing Qin Mingyu's difficulties, she can calmly say: "Mistress is kind, even though she doesn't like me, she can still allow me to live in the Hou's residence."

Qin Mingyu put it on the tea cup, turned to glance at her and said, "Do you know why I don't like you?"

Ye Lingwu frowned slightly, and replied: "My mother has a relationship with the Hou family."

Qin Mingyu said: "You still know. I heard that your mother died early, and she loved to tell you about her time in Ningbeihou Mansion when you were very young?"

"No," Ye Lingwu said, "My mother never told me that she had been to Beijing and entered Ningbei Hou's Mansion. I heard about it later."

Qin Mingyu seemed a little surprised, she was silent for a moment, and then said: "You and your mother look very similar, especially those eyes, that's why I don't want to see you, so, you should understand your marriage with Wan Zhou. There are tens of thousands of people who disagree."

Ye Lingwu tightened her hands under her sleeves, and said without changing her face: "Lingwu understands."

"Three years ago, Wanzhou told me that he wanted to marry you. At that time, I was really distraught. I didn't feel at ease until you married Jiang's family. At that time, I was afraid that what happened to my parents would happen again. I thought you would marry me. Going to Jiang's house is a good thing, who would have thought that the next three years would really keep me up at night, the three years in Beijiang were the most lonely three years I have seen my son live."

Ye Lingwu's heart trembled.

"...Wanzhou is like his father, he is more serious about emotional matters than anyone else, but he is more persistent than his father. If he is not recognized, even if he does not marry a wife and have children in this life, he will not settle. If it was someone else, I would still be able to breathe a sigh of relief, but it just so happens that it is you who makes me feel bad." Qin Mingyu smiled bitterly.

Ye Lingwu frowned, thinking: "Mother, I always remember some words of my mother before she died. She told me that people should look forward, and that's why the old Hou looked forward to marry and have children with you. Shen Zhan During the three years in northern Xinjiang, he also looked forward, but what he saw was different from what we women thought, he was never lonely, how can a world-renowned figure only have love in his heart."

Qin Mingyu looked at Ye Lingwu with complicated eyes: "He has the world in his heart, but he changed when he met you."

Ye Lingwu said: "Master Hou hasn't changed. The world is righteousness, and love is small righteousness. He knows very well what he wants in his heart, and that's why he married me."

Qin Mingyu was startled, and actually felt that what she said was right.

"...You do understand him." She sighed slightly.

Ye Lingwu smiled and said: "The mistress also understands Lord Hou, otherwise how could she easily agree to this marriage?"

Qin Mingyu glanced at her, and said, "Even if you know me, you still don't want to."

"Then why did the mistress agree?"

Qin Mingyu was at a loss for words.

why?
Why else?
It's not because she's afraid that she won't agree to this marriage. Her unworthy son is really going to be alone to the end. When her old hands are weak, she won't be able to hold her grandson.
