Chapter 85 Method
  Zhao Wangshu had just walked outside the small courtyard, and Luzhi was about to knock on the door. The door opened, and the Zhao family and his son saw off the guests.

The guests were four elders of the clan, and they were accompanied by Zhao Gui.

Zhao Wangshu looked at these people and knew that it was Da Zha who took action.

When one of the clan elders saw that Zhao Wangshu had come back from outside, he frowned, "My daughter's family should not leave the front door or step out of the second door. What does it mean to run outside all day long!"

"That's right, it's not appropriate." Another clan elder agreed.

Zhao Wangshu was disdainful in his heart, but with a respectful look on his face, he saluted the four clan elders and said, "Wangshu greets all clan elders."

"No need." Zhao Sheng, the leader of the clan, waved his hand, "Don't come out in public in the future. Don't let people say that our Zhao family has no tutor."

"Uncle Jiu, it was invited by the head of Yixing County, so my daughter has to go to the appointment." Zhao Chengke couldn't stand his precious daughter being scolded like this.

Hearing this, the expressions of the four elders froze, and Zhao Gui hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Niece Wangshu is still very well-behaved. She learned the rules best in the mansion. Brother Cheng, I know you love your daughter, but parents love their children, so The plan is far-reaching.”

Zhao Cheng didn't answer his words, "When you come back, hurry in and warm yourself up in the room so you don't catch the cold."

"Oh." Zhao Wangshu went in.

After the Zhao family father and son sent the clan elder and Zhao Gui away, they returned to their room. Zhao Cui and Zhao Li had told Zhao Wangshu the clan elder and their purpose of coming.

"Don't let me send my daughter into the fire pit again." Zhao Cheng made up his mind not to let the clan get their wish.

"You can send the post to Shen Mansion tomorrow." Mrs. Zhao Cui is not afraid of owing favors to protect her granddaughter.

"Son, I'm going to write a post now." Zhao Cheng went to the study.

The clan elders did not persuade Zhao Cheng to send their daughter back to the mansion, and left the Zhao family with dissatisfaction.

They did not leave the city immediately and returned to the mansion to discuss the next step. One of the clan elders said: "Zhao Cheng is so ignorant. For the sake of the overall situation of our clan, he should obey unconditionally."

Another clan elder nodded in agreement: "Yes, we also think about the whole clan. As a woman, Zhao Wangshu will always get married in the future. Marrying well will also be a help to the clan."

Zhao Sheng also said: "Wang Shu's appearance is the most outstanding among all the girls. She must be brought back to the mansion."

"Wang Shu is a girl. She relies on her father and brother, Uncle Jiu. If we capture Zhao Cheng and Zhao Yin, she will naturally fall into our hands." Zhao Gui said gloomily.

Zhao Sheng was silent for a long time, "I'll try to persuade the father and son again. If it doesn't work, then..." He made a gesture on his neck, "The clan doesn't need such disobedient people."

"Uncle Jiu said that I will go and persuade him in a few days." Zhao Gui volunteered.

"Persuade him well so that he doesn't make mistakes." Zhao Sheng said in a deep voice.

The next day, Zhao Cheng went to Shen's Mansion to deliver a message and asked if he could pay a visit tomorrow.

Shen Rui happened to be at home, and he wanted to protect his old friend's son, so he let him in directly.

When he saw Shen Rui, Zhao Cheng was not afraid of making his family's scandal public, and told the clan members truthfully, "I only have a son and a daughter. My nephew only hopes that the children will live happily in the future and get married." What I like.”

Several of Shen Rui's granddaughters were either married or already engaged, and one of her grandnephews was not yet married. "Brother Cheng, why don't you get engaged to Wangshu, so as to drain the firepower and put an end to the family's thoughts."

Moreover, since he is the second assistant, Zhao Kuang must be happy to see it happen if he is married to his family.

This method is quite good, but Zhao Cheng did not agree in a hurry, "Uncle Shen has good intentions, and my nephew understands that it is just that I have to discuss the marriage with my daughter."

Shen Rui smiled, "You really love your daughter."

Zhao Cheng went back and told his family about Shen Rui's marriage.

"Whether it's a good marriage or not, it depends on Yue'er's wishes," Zhao Cui said.

"Yue'er has someone she likes." Zhao Yin threw a thunderbolt. "What?" the three people exclaimed.

"Who are they? How do they know each other?"

Zhao Yin faced the staring eyes of his family and said quickly: "I don't know. Yue'er said he would tell me later."

"I'm going to ask Yue'er." Zhao Li stood up and said.

Mrs. Zhao Cui touched the snow ball in her arms and said, "Yue'er is not at home, she went to her master's place."

"Yue'er has a big idea. She doesn't want to say it. It's useless to ask." Zhao Yin knew his sister's temperament better.

"Then don't ask. Yue'er has a plan and won't do anything random." Mrs. Zhao Cui trusted her granddaughter very much. "A Cheng, if you go to Shen's house in a few days, thank him for his kindness. Let's do this marriage. I won’t go too high, but I still ask the Shen Mansion for more protection.”

"My son knows." Zhao Cheng said solemnly.

Since they did not plan to marry the Shen family, Zhao Cui and the others did not tell Zhao Wangshu about it.

Zhao Wangshu would not have thought that she would almost have a fiancé named Shen.

Days passed by, and it was the day when Yao Shanzhi held a tea tasting banquet.

Although the winter is cold and desolate, life is still full of fun with music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and tea.

Zhao Wangshu went to the princess mansion to attend a tea tasting banquet and was led into the warm room by the maid. Lin Qianyi, Zhu Siyun, Qin Youzi, Lu Wenqiu and Fang Jingshu were all there, as well as two girls whom Zhao Wangshu did not recognize.

"Wangshu, you are the last to come, I will punish you with three drinks in one sitting." Yao Shanzhi said with a smile.

"Ten cups of tea are enough as punishment." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.

"They are all top-quality teas. You have to taste them slowly. Don't even think about drinking them." Yao Shanzhi joked with a smile.

"Yes, this tea is of good quality. Drinking it with cows is not only a waste of good tea, but also looks vulgar." Zhu Siyun's words sounded like he was echoing Yao Shanzhi, but in fact he was insinuating Zhao Wangshu.

"Girls, this sentence shows elegance." Zhao Wangshu sarcastically replied.

Fang Jingshu smiled slightly and said: "The girls are from the first assistant's family. We are all ladies, so naturally we are elegant."

The girl in the rose-red coat chuckled softly, "You're a lady from a big family, a lady from a small family, she's just good at reincarnation."

Zhao Wangshu glanced at her and said, "Gardenia, why don't you introduce these two girls to me?"

"I almost forgot that you don't know each other, let me introduce it to you." Yao Shanzhi pointed at the girl wearing a light green coat, "This is Song Yuanqu, the daughter of Princess Duan."

Princess Duan Changcheng is the current half-sister, and she has a deep relationship with her husband-in-law. Three years ago, her husband-in-law died of illness, and she returned to his hometown to observe her filial piety. She just returned to Beijing with her children not long ago.

As both daughters of the eldest princess, Yao Shan Zhi has the title of county head, but Song and Yuan Qu does not. This shows that Duan Chang Princess is not proud in front of the Holy Emperor.

She then pointed to the girl in the rose-red coat, "She is Ma Qiaoqiao, the eldest daughter of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion."

"This is my good friend Zhao Wangshu."

Your surname is Zhao?

Yao Shanzhi did not say which house the girl was from, but Song Yuanqu and Ma Qiaoqiao were both smart people, and they immediately understood that they were related to the Queen.

"Nice to meet you, nice to meet you." The three of them saluted each other.

"Okay, don't be polite, let's start today's tea tasting party." Yao Shanzhi nodded to the musician sitting next to the piano table.
