Chapter 235 Farewell
Mrs. Chen laughed, Mao Chengyun's words were right.If she hadn't considered marriage for the time being on the grounds that Mingxuan was still rushing for the exam in the capital, there would be at least a dozen or so people proposing marriage, not to mention breaking the threshold of the family!
"Master, in fact, I have a favorite candidate in my heart." Chen Shi said.

"Oh, which girl is Madam looking at?" Mao Chengyun became interested.

Mao Mingxuan was his only son, and now he had a bright future. He also attached great importance to choosing a wife for Mao Mingxuan.Not to mention being a wealthy family, but at least having a good character so that his son has no worries.

"Master, what do you think of Zhao Furong, the daughter of Zhao Shoubei's family?" Chen asked.

"Furong!" Mao Chengyun's eyes lit up, "Okay! This girl is filial, and has a straightforward temper. The point is, she has a good relationship with Tongtong and pleases you. If you really enter the door, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, sister-in-law There's nothing wrong with the relationship."

"I think so, but I don't know if Mingxuan likes it or not," Chen said.

"Naturally, we are the ones to make decisions about marriage!" Mao Chengyun raised his eyebrows.

"That depends on Mingxuan's own will! If he has another girl he likes, if we force Furong to enter the door, wouldn't that harm the two children!" Chen said disapprovingly.

Mao Chengyun laughed, and said: "Ma'am, this is overthinking! Where did Mingxuan come into contact with any woman? He is all focused on learning, I'm afraid he hasn't gotten the hang of it yet!"

Mrs. Chen was stunned, and laughed herself, and said: "Master is right. Zuo Mingxuan will have to come back some time, and there is no rush for this matter. If the Zhao family also had the same thoughts, they wouldn't be in a hurry to give Fu Rong Engagement. Master, don't worry, I know it well."

"En." Mao Chengyun nodded and said, "Now we will see what kind of official Mingxuan will be in his first step into the officialdom."

"I'm afraid that those who have connections will have a good chance." The smile on Chen's face faded.

Although the third brother is a Beijing official, he can't help much if he thinks about it.People without background want to be in the officialdom, apart from their own ability, there is also opportunity.

"It depends on Mingxuan's good fortune. No matter how much we think about it, it's useless." Mao Chengyun said: "Madam, don't worry, I always think that Lord Long Live will give Mingxuan a chance."

Chen Shi smiled and said, "I can only think so."

In Beijing, Mao Mingxuan bought some special products to take home, and was about to bid farewell to Uncle Chen's family.

"Mingxuan, are you sure you don't want to go by water?" Uncle Chen asked.He originally planned to rent a boat for Mao Mingxuan.

"Uncle, I want to go home early." Mao Mingxuan said.It was the first time he had been away from home for such a long time since he was a child.After taking office, I'm afraid I won't be able to go home for three years.So he wanted to spend more time at home before taking office.

"Okay, it's better to go back earlier. You Ama and Er Niang must miss you too." Uncle Chen didn't insist.

"Thank you uncle and aunt for taking care of me in the past six months. Mingxuan is really grateful." Mao Mingxuan said.

"It's meaningless if you talk too much." Uncle Chen pretended to be angry and said, "You are my nephew, but you are just here for a short stay. There is nothing to be grateful for."

Mao Mingxuan laughed and said, "Okay, I won't be polite to uncle either."

"That's right! Let's have another drink tonight. When you leave tomorrow, I really can't find such a good drinking friend!" Uncle Chen patted Mao Mingxuan on the shoulder with a smile.

He didn't expect Mao Mingxuan to be a scholar, but his capacity for alcohol was not bad.Drinking with colleagues, and speaking with scruples.There are not too many restrictions with Mao Mingxuan, and people from all over the world can have a good chat!

In the past six months, he has really gotten used to Mao Mingxuan living in the house.Now thinking about Mao Mingxuan leaving, I really feel a little bit reluctant.

"Okay, then I'll have a good drink with uncle tonight!" Mao Mingxuan laughed.

Although Mrs. Su didn't like Mao Mingxuan's role as a county magistrate, she was afraid that if Mrs. Chen agreed to the marriage, Mao Mingxuan would still have to be her son-in-law, so she prepared dinner so that Mao Mingxuan could stay for the last night. a good impression.

Naturally, Chen Ruzhu was also on the table that day, and the family saw Mao Mingxuan off.

She watched Mao Mingxuan and Uncle Chen happily drinking each other, but a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.

Mao Mingxuan was about to leave now, but their marriage had not yet been finalized.She didn't even know this parting, whether there would be a chance to meet in the future.

Thinking of this, she looked at Mao Mingxuan more and more frequently.

Mao Mingxuan, who was sitting opposite Chen Ruzhu, naturally noticed it.It's just that he pretends not to see it.Since I never thought of agreeing, why give people hope.

He knew that if Su Shi really had this plan, he would definitely write a letter to his mother-in-law.But he also believed that based on Eniang's understanding of the Su family, the possibility of agreeing to this marriage was not great.

Seeing that Mao Mingxuan didn't look at him from the beginning to the end, Chen Ruzhu felt more and more sad, and even poured himself a glass of wine and started drinking.

"Ahem!" Chen Ruzhu was so choked by the spicy taste of the wine that she almost burst into tears.

Seeing her blushing, Uncle Chen couldn't help laughing and said, "Zhu'er, you can't drink this wine! You should drink the fruit bar."

Su frowned slightly, and said: "Don't look at your Ama and your cousin drinking vigorously, you just want to taste what it tastes like. This wine is not something that my daughter can drink!"

Only then did Mao Mingxuan take a look at Chen Ruzhu.And Chen Ruzhu also happened to look at Mao Mingxuan.The eyes of the two met, and Chen Ruzhu quickly lowered her eyes, her face turning redder and redder.

Uncle Chen was already slightly drunk at this moment, and did not notice anything strange about her daughter at all, but Mrs. Su saw something was wrong, and said: "I think Zhu'er is too strong to drink, so let's go back to the room to rest first."

"Okay, you and Zhu'er go back to rest first, and I'll have another drink with Mingxuan." Uncle Chen said indifferently.

Chen Ruzhu actually didn't want to leave, but when she saw Su Shi's sharp gaze, she got up obediently and said goodbye.

On this day, Mao Mingxuan accompanied Uncle Chen to drink until very late before returning to his room to rest.But the next day, he got up early in the morning.

When I think of going home soon, my mood is different and I become more energetic.

Uncle Chen couldn't wake up because of a hangover, so Su Shi and Chen Ruzhu sent Mao Mingxuan together.

"Be careful on the road. When we get there, someone will send a message. Your uncle and I can rest assured." Su Shi laughed.

"Well, auntie and cousin go back. It's very cold in the morning." Mao Mingxuan said.

Chen Ruzhu pursed her lips and looked at Mao Mingxuan, and finally mustered up the courage to say: "Bon voyage is fine, cousin."

Mao Mingxuan cupped his hands at the two, got on his horse, and set off with the little tiger.

Chen Ruzhu stood by the door until Mao Mingxuan was nowhere to be seen, and it was Su who called her, and then she woke up.

"Your aunt should have received the letter by now. It won't take half a month to get the news, so just wait patiently." Su said to Chen Ruzhu.
