Lord Shang Shu is easy to bend down

Chapter 391 Gossip
Ren Xianhong frowned.

Dong Shi also looked worried.

"Husband."

"Go and see Sister Zhen, I'll go to mother's place." Ren Xianhong dropped his words and strode away.

Dong Shi sighed, turned around and went after Sister Zhen.

In the main room, Mrs. Ren sat down with her son, "You don't need to persuade, since the Cheng family's marriage has been accepted, you can't withdraw it. This will not be good for Sister Zhen's reputation, and it will not be good for you. How long has it been since the incident happened, and if something like this happens again, how will you stay in the Hanlin Academy?"

"Mother, I've said it before. I can't rely on women, I can rely on myself. Cheng Rong is just a sidekick, and he's such a mess. If Sister Zhen marries him, her whole life will be ruined."

"Who doesn't a woman marry for a lifetime? Look at how good Dong's life is. An accident happened in Dong's mansion, and all the women's relatives were exiled. She can still be a young lady in the mansion. Where can she find reason? Sister Zhen has a bad life in the first place. , no wonder others."

Ren Xianhong knew that his mother was talking angry, and he knew why she was angry. This has been going on for half a year. It started slowly after the accident in Dong's mansion. Later, as long as his father was not at the house, the quarrel became more joyful.

"If you really love Sister Zhen, then listen to me and divorce Dong, and I will find you a suitable one. You are now in the Hanlin Academy, but your wife was convicted by a family. How can any superior dare to promote you?" Ren Madam started lobbying again.

Ren Xianhong grimaced, "Mother, I said before that no matter what happens to the Dong family, I will not divorce the Dong family."

"you"

Ren Xianhong was silent.

Mrs. Ren became cruel, "I know from Sister Zhen that you like Yuan Niang, and now she is the daughter of the Cong family, if you divorce the Dong family, I will go to the Confucian mansion to propose marriage for you."

"Mother." Ren Xianhong's forehead was bulging with blue veins, "Kong Daru is a great Confucian in the world, his disciples are all over the government and the public, and now he is the grand tutor. You have ruined the reputation of the Concubine's daughter-in-law, and will you let the Ren family gain a foothold in Jinling?"

Mrs. Ren stopped talking, and cried aggrievedly, "If I knew this, I should have agreed with you at the beginning. Who knew that the Dong family was so dark-hearted. Now I want to understand. Their family just knew that something was going to happen, so they married their daughter lowly, otherwise Where will it be cheaper for you?"

After the accident in the Dong Mansion, Mrs. Ren's intestines were green with regret. If she hadn't had her eyes set high, she would have let her son marry Xie Yuanniang. Now that her son has Kong Daru as his backer, how could he be underdeveloped in the future?

Well now, now there is nothing.

Ren Xianhong was in a bad mood today. He should be happy to see her happy, but he was so depressed that he couldn't arouse his interest.

Seeing his mother who was crying again, Ren Xianhong didn't coax him like he used to, got up and left, but Mrs. Ren was dumbfounded this time.

Ren Xianhong went to the backyard, stopped the girl who wanted to report, and stood outside listening to the conversation between his wife and younger sister.

"Sister Xie told me that Cheng Rong was not good at the beginning. When the Cheng family came to propose marriage, I had already told my mother, but my mother never considered me. I knew I should agree. In this way, the Cheng family will also promote brother in the future. "

Sister Zhen couldn't continue speaking, and started crying again.

Ren Xianhong clenched his hands behind his back into fists.

Powerless.

The powerlessness at this moment is very similar to when he gave up his beloved woman and first chose a father-in-law as a backer, and then God punished him before the betrayed party punished him.

Ren Xianhong smiled wryly, turned around and left silently.

In the room, Dong Shi didn't know how to persuade her, "Xie Yuanniang has returned to Jinling now, and my younger sister stays in the mansion all day, why not go and see her."

Ren Zhenzhen forgot to cry, but then cried even harder.

Dong Shi didn't know what he said was wrong, so he tried to persuade him, but he couldn't stop him. In the end, Ren Zhenzhen was tired from crying and stopped by herself, got up and left without saying anything.

On the path in the yard, Ren Zhenzhen saw her elder brother, "Brother."

Ren Xianhong turned around and looked into his sister's red and swollen eyes, "Don't worry, brother won't let your mother marry you to Cheng Rong."

Ren Zhenzhen bit her lip, "Brother, I'm sorry."

"Sister Zhen, you didn't feel sorry for me, it was my elder brother who didn't take good care of you and implicated you."

"Big brother."

"I'll post the post for you in a while, and you can talk to the second girl tomorrow."

Ren Zhenzhen shook her head.

Ren Xianhong was surprised, "I thought you would be happier doing this."

"Brother, ever since my mother appointed you a sister-in-law, I stayed away from Sister Xie every time I got together. It was I who avoided Sister Xie. Now I don't have the face to meet her."

Ren Xianhong was silent.

He wanted to comfort his sister, but he didn't know what to say. He just felt his mouth was dry, and he couldn't even make a sound. He didn't know when his sister left in the end.

At this moment in the Confucian Mansion, Xie Yuanniang had already told about the day's affairs, and Xiao Shu looked at the pile of candies and smiled, "That's good."

Just hide what Kong said when he came in the morning.

"Your grandfather has been in the palace for the past few days and has not come out, so stick to it for a few more days." Xiao Shu touched her daughter's face.

Xie Yuanniang nodded, "Mother, don't worry, I will save it."

Sister Yan came in from the outside, and what she saw was such a warm scene. She paused and walked in, "Mother."

Xiao Shu withdrew her hand, "Sister Yan is here, hurry up and sit down."

Sister Yan called Xie Yuanniang sister again, then walked to Xiao Shu and sat down, and she put the post in her hand on the table.

"Sister Bai's family invited me out for tea, and also sent me a post."

There are two posters on the table.

Xiao Shu said with a smile, "It will be difficult for a married person to want to go out. Now that I can go out, I will go out more often. You sisters will all go."

Seeing that her mother was happy and didn't want to spoil her, Xie Yuanniang agreed.

Sister Yan gave a rare smile, "My daughter also wants my sister to go with me. My sister knows a lot about things in Jinling."

Xiao Shu's smile became even happier, and she grabbed one person and folded her hands together, "That's right, you are sisters, there is no one who is closer than you."

Xie Yuanniang was still a little embarrassed, after all, she had never been close to Sister Yan, but seeing that Sister Yan could show her affection first, and such a proud person could make such a retreat, Xie Yuanniang's heart also warmed slightly.

In the previous life and this life, we have been together with Xie Wenhui for so many years, and we have not developed any feelings for each other. Sister Yan has a cold temper, and she has not developed any hostility because her family favors her. It is so young at such a young age. .

The next day, the two sisters didn't dress up gorgeously, they only wore their usual clothes, and they left the house in a carriage. There were only two sisters in the carriage, and Sister Yan took the initiative to speak again.

"Sister, do you know Mrs. Gu?"

mother-in-law?

Xie Yuanniang asked, "Why did my sister bring this up?"

"The day before yesterday, I went to Liu's mansion to take a guest. When I got into the carriage, I saw Mrs. Gu looked at my sister a little bit more." Sister Yan twisted the handkerchief in her hand as she spoke, looking a little nervous.
