Chapter 140 Three Advances and Three Retreats ([-])

As soon as the gongs and drums started to beat on the stage, the prince's servant came to report, "The prince said that they are going to leave soon."

The women ate and drank in the back, and the men ate and drank in the front.

The concubine nodded, and seeing that the servant didn't leave, she asked, "Is there anything else?"

"Master Mu heard about Mrs. Yu's birthday, and wanted to say something auspicious to him, and now he is waiting outside." Sure enough, the young servant hadn't finished speaking.

The opera garden of Prince Jing's Mansion did not build a pavilion, but a half-story, half-mouth-shaped corridor house raised with big stone pads.Because today is a family banquet, there are not many people, so only the right wing was opened.

The eldest grandma said that she had a migraine headache recently and could not blow the wind, so she took the maids, the girls from the Xiao family, and Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Zhang to sit down in the pavilion, drinking tea and talking while listening to the opera.Therefore, Qiu Sanniang sat next to Aunt Wei's wife.Wei Liuniang sat next to Qiu Sanniang again.The old princess and princess are on Wei Qiongyu's right.

There was no need for Mo Zi to speak, Bai He and Xiao Yi switched places, and said to her, "Master Mu is a Taoist priest in Sanqing Temple, he is good at curing rheumatism, and he often comes to treat the old concubine and dispense pills."

Mo Zi gave a light oh, but didn't really care.She came out today, and immediately came into contact with the women who were at the core of Jingfang Garden.There is already too much information, so a Taoist should not occupy limited brain resources.

Da Zhou worshiped Buddhism, Taoism was not popular, but Taoism and Buddhism can still coexist peacefully, unlike religious wars in the Middle East.

"Please hurry up." Therefore, Wei Qiongyu, who worshiped the Buddha, also respected the wood priest.

"Speaking of which, didn't he volunteer a few days ago to find a good marriage for your niece Liu Niang, we'll ask him later, but what's next? If he doesn't remember, tell the little girls to beat him up. "Because we have been in contact for more than ten years, the princess can speak in such a joking tone.

The concubine's voice was not high, but Mo Zi was close and could hear it clearly.She glanced at Wei Liuniang at the next table, and saw that half of Furong was pale, biting the corner of her lips, and the teacup in her hand was trembling.

Mo Zi thought, this Wei Liuniang obviously still prefers to Xiao Erlang, but her marriage is obviously decided by Wei Qiongyu, so it may be difficult to get her wish.I don't know if Wei Liuniang knows that the most precious second master of the Xiao family may marry the princess and princess in the future. If she knows, she probably won't think Xiao Erlang is a good match.Who uses the ability to compete with the daughter of the royal family for her husband'?Maybe even the mother-in-law has to bow her head and bow down to pay her respects to her daughter-in-law every day.I hope Wei Liuniang is smarter, thinks more open, and understands the truth of taking a step back.

After a while, a little girl led the wooden Taoist.

Mo Zi saw that the wooden Taoist priest had a long gray beard and a long face, and was wearing a fragrant gray Taoist robe, holding a fairy brush in his hand.Behind him were two eleven or twelve-year-old boys, with ordinary faces that people couldn't remember. One was holding a wooden box and the other was carrying a small box.

The wooden Taoist stood upright with one palm in front of his body, and sang a line to measure longevity, "I wish Mrs. Yu a long life and a healthy life, and everything goes well."

"Don't need to say good words, Taoist priest, let us see your great gift first." Wang Hao said with a smile, "If you come empty-handed, don't say nice words, and quickly take your two apprentices away."

The old concubine also laughed, "Zhi Min, you are so kind, so you just sent it away like this. If you ask me, it's not okay. If he doesn't get a gift, he won't be allowed to come to the mansion from now on, and we won't buy his again." Those pills, let him be a quack."

Wood Taoist knew that the two were joking, but he was very obedient, he stroked his long gray beard, and said with a smile, "The two concubines look down on poor people too much, and I am so poor that I have nothing to eat. On such a day, You can’t come empty-handed, can you?”

Turning around, he took the wooden box from Daotong's hand, and held it high in front of his forehead, "This is a filial piety, please Madam Yu to take a look."

A little girl picked it up and sent it to Wei Qiongyu's table.

Wei Qiongyu opened it and saw that there were two red notes with the birth date written on them, "This one is the birth date of my Liu Niang, but the other one is—?"

"Oh, let me take a look." Wang Hao asked Wei Qiongyu to go over and take a look, and immediately closed her eyes with a smile, "I just said, if you forget this, Mr. Mu, you will let the little girls beat you Dare you remember to do it. It’s not bad. Which son’s birthday horoscope is this?”

Mo Zi watched, Wei Qiongyu didn't know, but she just pretended not to understand and let the princess tell.

"The concubine is right. These two horoscopes are a match made in heaven and a century-old marriage. Even if you go to heaven and earth, you can't find such a suitable pair. It's just like fate, the man's mother is close When the day comes, I will secure a marriage for my son in my temple, just for me to say the lottery." The wooden Taoist said so eloquently, boasting that there is heaven and earth.

Wei Qiongyu just smiled and said nothing, anyway, someone always asks for her.

Sure enough, the princess said, "Run to the house where you asked for a lottery? Hurry up and tell me what a good idea it is."

"That lady', as soon as I say it, you guys might recognize her. She is Bian, the wife of Lord Yang, the servant of the Ministry of Rites. The Yang family has only one son. Although he is well-known and well-read, This year's big test must be a gold medal title. I also inquired, Mr. Yang's good character. What's more, he didn't even accept a house girl. If Miss Wei'marries in, she will be the first wife."

These days, even Taoist priests know that women in the inner house will have fierce consequences?Mo Zi laughed in her heart, this wooden Taoist priest doesn't even think about whose birthday it is today, and what he said about the first wife.However, seeing that the smile on Wei Qiongyu's face deepened, she should be really happy for her niece.

"Master Yang's only son." The princess did know this family, "Master Daoist, you are really right. If this marriage is going to happen, it will be very good."

She turned her head and held Wei Qiongyu's hand, and said, "Qiongyu, you may not have seen her before, but I have seen that child once. He is good-looking, very polite and filial. He is not like our family. Those three boys are either tough or cause trouble. From this point of view, he and Liu Niang really match."

Wei Qiongyu smiled really happily.Minister of the Ministry of Rites has a fourth-rank title, and the prince also praised Mr. Yang for his good character.As for Mr. Yang, he was unexpectedly the only son in the family.If Wei Liuniang can really become a regular wife, it can be regarded as Gao Pan's marriage.For the Wei family to turn into a businessman, it is a big step forward.

Thinking like this, how can you be dissatisfied?But he didn't want to be too joyful, so he asked Mu Taoist cautiously, "I wonder if the Yang family intends to get married?"

"My sister is confused." The concubine still held Wei Qiongyu's hand, "Of course we have to ask what we mean first, so that the Taoist priest can ask the Yang family. Otherwise, if we miss Wei Liu's background, and The girl didn't like it, and the good thing turned into a bad thing, which also affected our friendship in this life."

"That's not the reason." Taoist Mu replied with a smile, "Although I didn't disclose the details of Miss Wei Liu, I roughly said that my father and brother are in business, my uncle is a state official who has just been released to the sixth rank, and my aunt is a lady from a very noble family." Mrs. Yang was "very happy to hear that, let me hurry to ask Miss" for permission, so that she can know more carefully. According to the poor, as long as Miss Wei is willing to do this, it will be done."

"Qiongyu, today must be your birthday. God has sent you a big gift. It's a sign of great joy and good luck. Let's enjoy the joy. Liuniang will marry from the palace, okay?" Wei Qiongyu knows how to be a man, Why not the princess?

Mo Zi listened to what they said, and a few or two sentences meant to seal Wei Liuniang's marriage.However, it sounds like Mr. Yang is better than Xiao Erlang.Just without a concubine, she is already better than many men.If I was in Wei Liuniang's shoe and couldn't control the marriage anyway, I might think it was pretty good.The Yang family seems to have a simple population, and there are not so many traps in King Jing's mansion.The most important thing is that she was a big wife in the past, and she doesn't need to clean up other people and let herself be the master of extermination.

After thinking about it, Mo Zi began to feel lucky for Wei Liuniang to have such a good marriage, but at this moment things took a sudden turn for the worse.

That Wei Liuniang stood up suddenly, her face was as pale as paper, and her expression seemed a little dazed.It wasn't until the maid behind her worriedly tugged at her sleeves that she flung herself away as if waking up from a dream.At the same time, he quickly walked up to Wei Qiongyu, kneeling on the ground suddenly, his eye circles turned red.

When she knelt down like this, the concubine and Wei Qiongyu who spoke warmly were startled, as well as the old concubine and Qiu Sanniang.

Mo Zi knew that Wei Liuniang had Xiao Erlang hidden in her heart, seeing her like this, she wondered why this woman couldn't think about it.If you don't like this, it's fine, don't say anything stupid about not marrying someone.

"My son, what are you doing?" Wei Qiongyu is indeed a kind elder, and she knows something in her heart, but her first reaction is to feel sorry for this niece, "Speak up if you have something to say."

The princess has always regarded Wei Liuniang as a spoiled guest, so of course she quickly got her up, "Liuniang, if you don't like it, we can find a better one, why should we be so wronged? Tears are rolling in the eyes, this is pitiful!" Son, we feel uncomfortable in our hearts."

The old concubine also gave some nice words of persuasion, and asked the maids to help Wei Liuniang.

The hostesses have their own attitudes, and the expressions of the people below are more direct.Most of them are confused about why such a good marriage is still refused.

Wei Liuniang seemed to have made up her mind to speak clearly, but the girls refused to get up despite persuading her.He moved his knees, and now he was facing the princess.

The princess immediately knew that things were not easy, and there were so many eyes staring at her, so she immediately recruited a woman in charge, and ordered, "Let all the singers go out, and the girls should also be brought by grandma and aunts." They broke up. If you ask, you can say that Mu Daochang mentioned Miss Wei Liu's marriage, and Miss Wei Liu lost her composure because she suddenly missed home. Remember, let the girls, daughter-in-law and mother-in-law stop chewing their tongues, if it sounds bad Yes, find out who it is, and immediately drive out of the mansion."

The mother-in-law took the order.

When Mo Zi saw the mother-in-law finished talking to Grandma Xiao and the girls, Grandma Xiao wanted to come over, but she seemed to be persuaded by the mother-in-law, and finally had no choice but to leave with Miss Xiao and the aunts.

I gave up this seat at the beginning, and want to sit back, how can it be so easy?Mo Zi watched with cold eyes.

The concubine said sorry to Taoist Mu again, Wei Liuniang just arrived, and she was not familiar with the place where she lived, so the marriage should be mentioned later.

Taoist Mu knew something was wrong, but he had no choice but to say no, so he said goodbye by the way.

When everyone's focus was on those two people, Mo Zi bowed his head and whispered something to Qiu Sanniang.
