Chapter 257 Revealed
The laughter in the main room was crisp and clear. Wang Guizhen and her younger sister Wang Lanzhen took out a bunch of small things they had just bought from the street and spread them all over the couch. The two sisters were in high spirits. I can't put it down, the streets of the capital are bustling and lively, and there are a lot of items. The two sisters will not get bored after shopping for several days. If they are not controlled by their mothers, they may not remember to go home when they go out.

Mrs. Liang came in and saw that her two daughters were so happy, and she was also very happy. She smiled and admired the gadgets with them. Sending it to my younger brother to make them happy too, Wang Lanzhen obediently went.

Here Mrs. Liang whispered to the eldest daughter: "Gui'er, you asked me to go to your father's study to find out. I went, and your father was very angry after reading that letter!"

Wang Guizhen smiled and said: "I knew it! My father is already an uncle, with a decent and noble status, how can I let sister Yaozhen be a concubine? She also secretly wrote letters to other people's husbands, she is so courageous Yes, she should be punished to kneel on the muddy ground with a water basin on her head, and then whip her twice to see if she wakes up! It’s really crazy, what’s so good about Rong Pinghou? He’s as thin as a log, with a handsome face, But she was cold and didn't smile at all, just like this, she can be completely dazed, she really has never seen a man before!"

Mrs. Liang clicked her tongue: "Do you think Yaozhen is stupid? She has taken a fancy to Rongpinghou's family a long time ago! Didn't you see that I went to Rongpinghou's mansion that day, obediently? The splendor and wealth in the mansion dazzled my eyes and I couldn’t finish it! If no one led me, I wouldn’t be able to walk out of the mansion—it’s too big and wide! The verandah is much bigger than ours. The home is much more beautiful. The floor tiles laid on the floor of the old lady’s house are as bright as looking in a mirror. They don’t look like stones, but rather like the beautiful jade we carry around now! His wife and his wife wear them like Needless to say, even the girls who stood all over the courtyard were all wearing gold hairpins and silver hairpins, all covered in silk and glistening like flowers... Sigh, is it the Bieber of the Hou Mansion? The family's status is high, otherwise your elder sister Yaozhen is so delicate and tender, why would she rely on Rong Pinghou? It's not easy for her to marry?"

Wang Guizhen smiled and said: "But no matter how nice and rich the family is, they still have a big wife. The big family property is under the control of the big wife. To be a little wife, you have to ask the big wife what you eat and use. If you are happy, I will give it to you." , I am not happy to scold you, how boring!"

"It's true, your father doesn't allow Yaozhen to be a concubine, one is for face, and the other is for her own good. At this moment, I am planning to arrange a good marriage for her, but I am afraid that she will not appreciate it!"

Wang Guizhen became interested: "Who told you about the good marriage? Has a matchmaker come? What kind of family? What does that man look like?"

Liang Shi pursed her lips into a smile, and lowered her voice even more: "You've seen it before!"

"Ah? Who?"

"That was when we were still in our hometown in the south. When your father first met Marquis Rongping, you remember that among the people who followed King Qin, there was a young and strong general who respected your father very much. Dad picked it up and sent it all the way home, and you refilled him with tea twice at that time!"

"It's that handsome, tall and strong general! Mom, have you seen him?"

Wang Guizhen stood up abruptly, her moon-like round face turned red in the blink of an eye, she took Liang's arm and shook it twice: "Mother, tell me, where is he?"

When Liang looked at her daughter, her heart was like a mirror. When she saw her daughter staring at the young man without moving her eyes, she knew that her daughter fell in love with him.

What's the use?She is a general who follows a nobleman, and her daughter is just a humble country girl. At that time, Mrs. Liang didn't dare to think about it at all. Ever expected that mothers and daughters would have such an opportunity?Following Wang Yaozu into the capital city, her status gradually rose, and her daughter is now the daughter of the uncle's mansion. Although the country girls are not as delicate as the girls in the city, they are more expensive because they are healthy, cheerful, lively and pleasant. A general is enough, but what the master is thinking about is Wang Yaozhen, and logically, he should discuss marriage with Wang Yaozhen first, and then go to Guizhen.

Mrs. Liang thought about it, then sighed and said, "Gui'er, that General Meng is your father's old subordinate, and he is actually not very good. You look at him like that, he is not young, he is 23 or 20 years old... ...You are much younger than him, but he is a good match for Yaozhen, Yaozhen is [-] years old, your father is anxious to marry her off!"

Wang Guizhen pursed her lips, and said softly for a while: "Mother, but I like him! He's just good!"

Liang was a little helpless: "But your father wants to promise Yaozhen to him, and he will come in two days. At that time, we will meet each other, and Yaozhen will fall in love with him, so we will make a marriage arrangement!"

Wang Guizhen's eyes lit up suddenly: "Mother, you mean, my father will wait for sister Yaozhen to like her before making an appointment with her? What if sister Yaozhen doesn't like it?"

Liang was annoyed: "How do I know? It's okay if you don't like it. How can a cow hold its head forcibly if it doesn't drink water? Then it won't eat either!"

But Wang Guizhen smiled: "If she doesn't want to eat, I will! Mother, please watch carefully. When General Meng comes that day, I will go to see him too! If Sister Yaozhen doesn't like it, just tell Dad, Marry me to General Meng!"

Mrs. Liang looked at her daughter reproachfully: "You, you are shameless! Now you are Miss Qianjin, you can't be like in the country, dare to say anything, don't let people laugh at our mother's rudeness, look at Yaozhen walks and talks, learn from her!"

"Understood, mother, did you hear what I said?"

"I heard it! I also thought that General Meng was good, so I came here to let you know. He is a third-rank official at such a young age. I heard from your father that a third-rank official is really big. He has power in his hand, and he has followed the emperor and defended him to the death. He has a bright future! If he doesn't manage well, he can get an uncle like your father in the future, or, simply like Rong Pinghou, Rong Pinghou Marquis Ping should be the biggest official, right? Your father said that Marquis Rong Ping said three words and King Qin had to listen to him! The new emperor’s success in enthroning this time is all because he obeyed Marquis Rong Ping’s arrangement! General Meng also confers a high official like that, and being his wife, there will be endless glory and wealth!"

Wang Guizhen's eyes were clear, and her face became brighter with excitement: "I know! That's to be the 'Mrs. Gaoming'! Alas! It doesn't matter whether you are Mrs. Gaoming or not. I just want to marry him. General Meng, he is a hero. He's a good boy!"

"Mother knows that he is a good person, but what if Yaozhen also likes him?"

"Mother, don't worry, elder sister Yaozhen definitely doesn't like him!"

Liang was puzzled: "How do you know?"

Wang Guizhen pursed her lips and smiled: "Just watch then!"

"What are you going to do, don't let your father know, I can't control him when he gets angry!"

After thinking for a while, Mrs. Liang said again: "Then General Meng once lost his wife, leaving behind two three or four-year-old daughters...you can figure it out!"

Wang Guizhen froze for a moment: "Mother, is this true? He, he had a wife and children?"

"Of course it's true, otherwise, would you still be reduced to marrying Yaozhen?"

Wang Guizhen was not happy: "Why are you not degraded? Mother, don't talk nonsense! General Meng is good, a hundred times a thousand times better than other men! The wife in front has died, why don't we leave two A girl doll? I am willing to raise it for him!"

Mrs. Liang snorted pretending not to care, said no more, turned and walked out of her daughter's room.
