Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 310
The two talked about various topics about pregnant women. Yiqing guessed that Wang Wenhui might be back soon, so she casually asked about the Fan family's cousin surnamed Dong.

Luo Suqin was a little surprised: "You asked Dong Qingyun? What are you going to do?"

"I don't want to do anything, I just want to know!"

"Tell me the truth, and I'll tell you again!"

Yiqing had no choice but to tell the truth: "My cousin Wang Wenhui, you met her last time at my natal home, and you met again today, did you see clearly? Do you think she is a good match for Dong Qingyun? The last time I met Dong Qingyun at my natal home, I might have missed him! Otherwise, with her temperament, how could she feel as if she had been beaten when I mentioned that I would come to visit you in Fan's mansion? You are rushing to come with me? What did you say that you took good care of her last time at my mother’s house, and she should come to see you? It’s pure nonsense! I remember you sat so far away and didn’t say anything to her at all. Talk!"

Luo Suqin smiled: "Let me just say, why did you bring her here? I don't know her very well! But after you reminded me, I remembered: the last time I was drinking tea in Xiafu, you got up and went out for two One time, your cousin talked to my cousin Dong, and they said a few words!"

"This means, I guessed right? Has our cousin taken a fancy to your cousin Dong?"

"This, you can ask again, I don't dare to guess."

Luo Suqin smiled and told Yi Qing about Dong Qingyun's situation: "Accordingly, if your cousin really likes our cousin Dong, it would not be surprising: our cousin Dong is a talented person, well-educated, and won the imperial list last year. But a second-class Jinshi, now working in the Imperial Academy, 20 years old, from the seventh-rank official. The Dong family's old house is in Fulin Town, seventy or eighty miles away from the capital. They lived in a family for three generations. There was a grandmother, their parents were still alive, and Cousin Dong had five brothers and sisters. Cousin Dong was the third. Now that he is an official in Beijing, he bought a house in the southwest of the capital. From time to time, I come to Fan's house to gather with my cousins."

"Won't his family come to accompany him one or two?"

"The grandmother at home is weak and sick. Uncle Dong has to take care of the family property and business. In addition to serving the old grandmother, my aunt is also preparing for the marriage of the next two cousins. They are all engaged and waiting to be married. The first two cousins , are pregnant and about to give birth, you have to watch it, right? Where can I get it? "

"That's true! Then your cousin Dong is 20 years old, why hasn't he married yet? Are you engaged?"

Luo Suqin smiled earnestly: "You should have asked this question from the very beginning! Cousin Dong, his life is a little bit bad. He was engaged before, and he should get married after winning the imperial list last year. It's a pity, just a few days away, the bride to be married was actually caught by a red date seed and suffocated to death!"

Yiqing was stunned for a while: "Is there such an unlucky person?"

"That's right! It's absolutely true! So Cousin Dong won the election, such a big happy event, and because of this, it has reduced a lot of joy. My husband said that don't look at Cousin Dong's smile is pretty good now , last year he was in disgrace for a while."

Yiqing smiled a little: "That girl is poor!"

"What can I do? You can die if you eat a red date, so I can only say that she is blessed!"

"Then, cousin Dong hasn't discussed marriage yet?"

"Not yet, I think I'm not in the mood, maybe there is no suitable one!"

"Hey!" Yiqing said suddenly: "Didn't you just say that your mother-in-law wants to give your husband a concubine? She is a girl from an official family. She is beautiful and versatile. This background is not bad. Let it be your cousin Dong. Okay? Your husband has a wife and wants a concubine, but my cousin Dong doesn’t even have a wife!"

Luo Suqin sighed: "You don't know, my mother-in-law and aunt can't get along, and she doesn't care about Cousin Dong's marriage!"

"That's it. Suqin, when I go back, I will take Wenhui's words slowly and see if she is really interested in Cousin Dong. I think Dong Qingyun is pretty good, with good looks and talent, and a clean family background, right? "

"That's natural! In terms of family background, his great-grandfather and grandfather also served as officials!"

"Well, it's good! Let's put the words here first, and I will write to you no later than tomorrow morning. If our cousin is sure that Dong Qingyun likes Dong Qingyun, you can find someone for me to ask him. He also met Wang Wenhui. If you want, it will be done!"

Luo Suqin opened her mouth: "This is a marriage, you said it so lightly!"

"Then what else? Don't you want your cousin Dong to marry a wife? Our cousin is not young anymore, she is sixteen or seventeen years old, and now lives in the Duke's mansion. Her parents are not in a hurry to marry their daughter. We will be cousins." My sister-in-law is constantly being urged by the old lady to help her find a husband's family who can satisfy her, and if she gets married, everyone will be at ease!"

"I'm afraid that people like you will look down on Cousin Dong's family background!"

Yiqing nodded and said: "Your words are not unreasonable. At first, my husband and I did consider finding someone from the Hou Menbo Mansion for Cousin Wenhui to marry, but looking back, although prosperity and wealth are good, sometimes it is difficult Enjoy it! Let’s talk about Wenhui, she is in the same situation as your cousin, Dong Qingyun lost his fiancée, and Wenhui divorced her marriage!”

"Huh? Why is that?"

"It's not Wenhui's problem, but the man who was engaged to marry. He took a good concubine before marrying a regular wife, and he was pregnant! But who can tolerate someone who is a bit temperamental?"

"Indeed, I can't stand it! I'm the one who wants to quit!"

"It's easy to withdraw marriage, but Wenhui also has such a background for no reason. Think about it, those high-ranking and wealthy families pay attention to these things the most. Even if they want to discuss marriage with us for the sake of the Duke's Mansion, they are also worried that the other party will give it to us." He is not good enough! Otherwise, it would be meaningless to be a stepmother or something! In fact, in my opinion, it is better to find someone like your cousin Dong, and you can pick a good one!"

"Hey, Xia Yiqing! What do you mean?"

Luo Suqin turned the corner and quit: "What's wrong with our cousin? That's great! Cousin Dong is a low-key person who doesn't like to make public, and doesn't like to socialize. If he often goes out with his colleagues to attend poetry meetings Banquet or something, let people find out that he is good, and it's your turn to figure it out?"

Yiqing smiled and said: "I intend to lead him a red line, how can I plot against him?"

"Hmph! That cousin of yours is not very good-looking either. You said before that she often troubles you, and she has a bad temper after all. She is not a daughter of the Duke's Mansion, but a cousin, and she is not loved by her parents. , the dowry will not be much! If such a woman told our cousin, are you planning?"

"You really dare to say it! Her parents can't scold you when they hear it! Although she is not the daughter of the Duke's Mansion, she is the cousin of the Zheng family. She grew up in the Zheng Mansion. We will always take care of her. Her dowry will not Less! And ah... Hey, I said Luo Suqin, Dong Qingyun is Fan Jiawen's cousin, you are so mad at Fan Jiawen, and you haven't got it back yet, so you are desperate for his cousin and me Gasp, are you free?"

Luo Suqin laughed loudly: "I can't say no to you, even if it's my own cousin, if you want to fall in love with me, I have to let you!"

"It's not me, it's Wang Wenhui who's taken a fancy to! In fact, you don't have to worry. Wang Wenhui was against me before. She was young and vigorous, and she had no experience. Now she has grown up and knows something. She is quite smart. , I believe that as we live, there will be good changes!"

"That's fine. You go back and find out, and write to me tomorrow. If that's the case, I'll have someone to talk to Cousin Dong!"

The two were talking, and a maid came in to change the tea, and then Wang Wenhui came back, her eyes were a little red, Yiqing asked her what happened, Wang Wenhui smiled and explained that the branches and leaves of the bonsai tree in the corridor were accidentally swept away. Getting to her face, Yiqing was thinking that the corridor in Luo Suqin's yard was quite wide, and could accommodate three or four people walking side by side, so why did she let the bonsai branches and leaves in the corridor be swept away?But it is inconvenient to ask more questions in other people's homes, so I keep silent.

Because of Luo Suqin's strong request and insisting on going out to accompany the guests, Yiqing and Wang Wenhui couldn't refuse, so they had lunch in Fan's mansion, and sat chatting and laughing with Luo Suqin's mother-in-law Yu and other female relatives for a while. Say goodbye and go home.

On the way, Yi Qingan sat quietly, didn't ask Wen Hui anything, she took the initiative to come closer, and said softly: "Cousin, I, I... I heard some of what you and Grandma Fan said outside!"

Yiqing was stunned for a moment: "Didn't you go to the toilet? There are people following, how can you hear us?"

Wang Wenhui blushed, lowered her head and said, "Grandma Fan's Cui'er is very lively, loves to talk and laugh, and has a good conversation with Caiyun. When I walked out of the latrine, they were picking flowers and playing. They didn't see me, so I went first I'm back! Just as I walked to the peony embroidered screen in Grandma Fan's room, I heard you talking about me... me and that Mr. Dong!"

Yiqing frowned and looked at her: "How could you do this? Don't tell me that you are impolite to eavesdrop on conversations in other people's homes, and you will frighten the girls just by running away and disappearing alone, you know? If you are punished by the master for this, Where is this grievance going to be avenged? How can you bear it if you bring trouble to others?"

"Cousin, I know I was wrong!"

"You can't do this next time!"

Yiqing thought angrily: If it wasn't Ah Yan's cousin, she wouldn't want to take you out at all, so why would there be a next time!

Thinking of Ah Yan, I couldn't help but say another word: "You are not young anymore. If you have nothing to do on weekdays, reflect on yourself, compare yourself with others, think more and grow your brain! If you are in Xiafu, you will be fine if you do this. Now, the Fan Mansion is not familiar with the Zheng Mansion, you just walk around by yourself when you first arrive, it's not only dangerous, but also very rude, you know?"

Wen Hui lowered her head: "I know, I just have something on my mind, and I want to tell my cousin in a hurry."

"What is it?"

"I……"

Wen Hui raised her head, and her face was as red as a big red cloth: "Biao sister-in-law, you are not guessing randomly, I really like Mr. Dong! When I first met Mr. Dong in Xia Mansion, I always miss him! This time I follow my cousin When I came to Fan Mansion, I also thought that it would be great if I could meet him by chance!"

Yiqing looked at her speechlessly, and said for a while, "It's good to meet once? Then today you really made your wish come true, shouldn't you be satisfied?"

"Cousin!"

Wenhui didn't care about being shy, she grabbed Yiqing's sleeve and said, "I was not sensible before, and I was instigated by my aunt and cousin Baochan, so I treated my cousin like that. I knew I was wrong, so I changed it! Please, cousin Regardless of past suspicions, help me this time, from now on I will listen to my cousin and only fix it with my cousin!"

Yiqing looked at the hand tightly clutching her sleeve, smiled and said: "Okay, don't worry, let's talk slowly——you heard my conversation with Grandma Fan, how much did you hear? "

The blush on Wen Hui's face did not fade: "I heard Grandma Fan say that my cousin is plotting against her cousin... because I was afraid that I would stand under the embroidered screen for too long and be suspicious, and it would not be easy to come in and interrupt your conversation, so I went Back out, and come back when I find those girls who followed me!"

"Well, then you know Dong Qingyun's background and family situation? If your cousin thinks, he will find a better one for you than Dong Qingyun's family background, what do you think?"

"No no! I don't want anything better!"

Wang Wenhui became anxious, and said: "My cousin's words are right. Although the powerful family is good, not everyone can afford it! There is only one person like my cousin Yan in this world! What kind of person am I? What kind of man to match with, you know! I like Mr. Dong, he suffered the same as me, we share the same disease, we will get along very well!"

Yiqing was speechless again, patted her hand and comforted her: "You haven't written your horoscope yet, how do you know that people are willing to share your illness with you? Calm down, talk to Grandma Fan first, and ask her to find someone to ask Dong Son, it’s easy to talk!"

"Sister-in-law, I've already told you my heart. I really like Mr. Dong! Send a letter to Grandma Fan now!"

"Girl, we just took our leave. Could it be that you want me to go back to Fan Manor? Can you do this kind of thing?"

"Well, then when I get home, my cousin remembers to write a letter to Grandma Fan! This matter should be done quickly, I'm afraid, what if we are late if someone proposes to Mr. Dong? "

Yiqing was completely speechless, turned her head to look out the window, and didn't bother to pay attention to her.

But Wang Wenhui was very persistent, maybe because she liked Dong Qingyun too much, she went back to the Duke's Mansion and followed Yiqing to Anhetang to invite the old lady and the lady, and she stayed close to her side, whatever Yiqing did she would do. What, Yiqing is teasing Bao'er, she smiles more vigorously than Bao'er, if Yiqing wants to feed Bao'er, she will go to pick up Bao'er first, the big girl is not afraid of the little milk baby's saliva On the clothes... Yiqing thought that if she didn't give her a word, maybe she would follow her back to Yuhui Courtyard to live with her tonight!
In desperation, and understanding the feelings of the Huaichun girl, Yiqing had no choice but to find pen and ink in Anhetang, and wrote a letter to Luo Suqin in front of Wang Wenhui, explaining that Wenhui was indeed interested in Dong Qingyun, and asked her to find a Ask Dong Qingyun to a suitable person, if he is also interested, then he can discuss marriage.

Wang Wenhui let out a long sigh of relief when she saw Yiqing sealed the letter and handed it to Huayu to take it to the vestibule for Du Zhong to send to Fan's Mansion.
