Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1153
Just as Wei De was worried, when Yao heard about this marriage, he severely reprimanded his son and daughter-in-law.

But the marriage was proposed by Wen Jie himself, and the Cao family agreed. Even Xiao Ding's date was finalized, so the old man could only sulk.

Although He was a little guilty, he didn't take it seriously.

Although Wen Jie came from the first line of the Wei family in Jiangning, he is a concubine and an orphan, but he has a reputation for success.Ganoderma lucidum is talented and beautiful, and has a dowry that is not shabby, which is also worthy of Wenjie.

After seeing Xiaoding's gift, a gold inlaid jade necklace, a pair of dragon and phoenix gold bracelets, a pair of pearl hairpins, and a pair of gemstone rings, Mrs. He thought it was prepared by the Cao family's helper, and followed Chu who brought Wenzhi over. Yu said it was troublesome.

That's right, this time it was Chuyu who came forward as an elder to Mancheng to make a decision.

Although he is not satisfied with this marriage, Cao Yong still has to fulfill his responsibilities as a parent. He originally wanted the husband and wife to go to the city together, but his status is limited. lawsuit.

In the end, Chuyu brought Wenzhi and Tianyou to Mancheng.

Two days in advance, Cao Yong sent people to Mancheng to write a letter, only saying what had been decided, and did not mention that Chu Yu would go there in person.

On the side of the Wei family, they thought Cao Yong and his wife would send the housekeeper and servants over, but they didn't expect the governor's wife to come in person, so they were a little careful.

Wen Jie was also very moved, but also a little regretful.

In Wenjie's previous letter to the capital, he asked Gui Niang to go to Mancheng to preside over the decision.

According to the custom, the man's mother goes to the woman's house to place a small order for the future daughter-in-law.

Guiniang refused to leave Beijing under the pretext of taking care of Wen Qiang. She was also thinking of her own status, and she was afraid of embarrassing Wen Jie.

Gui Niang is responsible, but Chu Yu is unwilling to wrong her.

Seeing Mrs. He smilingly looking at these wedding ceremony, obviously very satisfied, she said: "These were all sent from the capital, prepared by Wenjie's adoptive mother. After all, she is the eldest daughter-in-law, so it can be seen that she is sincere."

When He heard this, he was startled.

She knew that the Wenjie brothers and sisters were looked after by Wei Wuyi's aunt, so she didn't take it seriously.But according to what the governor's wife meant, she actually regarded that aunt as Wenjie's adoptive mother.

Although adoptive mothers and concubine mothers are both mothers, their weights are different.

I don't know if it was the aunt who boasted, or it was the truth.

If the aunt is boasting, it can be ignored; if it is true, and the concubine becomes the adoptive mother, wouldn't it mean that the niece has an extra mother-in-law?
She looked at Brother Wenjie who was sitting on the head, and seeing that the two brothers had no intention of refuting, she felt bad, and said vaguely: "When I was in Jiangning in the early years, I heard that Uncle Wu was capable and made a fortune in Guangzhou. Sure enough, the family is rich."

On a happy day, Wen Jie and Wen Zhi were both a little sad when mentioning the "dead" Wei Xin.

Yao Taijun didn't want to cling to wealth and honor, even though there were many distinguished guests, he only met them according to the etiquette, and left everything to his daughter-in-law for reception.

Unexpectedly, the daughter-in-law talked nonsense, so the old man had no choice but to show up and praise Guiniang's loyalty and righteousness to Wenjie and Wenzhi twice, telling the two brothers to remember the kindness of nurturing, so that they can be filial to their adoptive mother in the future.

Wen Jie and Wen Zhi stood up and listened, and agreed in unison.

He Shi was at the side, but his expression changed.

Although they are relatives of the Wei family, they are now serving as the woman's natal family.Now that the old lady said this, even if her mother's family recognized Guiniang's status as a adoptive mother, she would have to offer tea to her daughter-in-law when the Ganoderma lucidum passed through the door.

Chu Yu was by the side, seeing that the old lady was so sensible, she respected the old lady too much.

Today's "adoptive mother"'s remarks are not just from Chu Yu's mouth, the husband and wife had discussed it before.

Needless to say, the Wenjie brothers and sisters have long regarded Guiniang as their mother, but from outsiders, Guiniang is just a concubine and a lowly concubine born as a maidservant.

If the married daughter-in-law neglects Guiniang because of her status, not only Guiniang will be wronged, but also Wenjie's brothers and sisters will be dissatisfied and the family will be in trouble.

Through these years of getting along, Cao Yong and Chu Yu also see that Gui Niang treats Wen Jie brothers and sisters as if they are her own, and has a respectable character.Perhaps this is also the reason why Wei Xin entrusted several children to her to take care of.

This He Lingzhi looks weak and docile now, but if he really wants to marry into the Wei family, it's hard to say how he will get along with Guiniang.

Wen Jie was young after all, so he wouldn't think of this.Chu Yu looked at the small set prepared by Guiniang, and thought of the embarrassing situation when the bride came in, so she raised a question with her husband.

In Cao Yong's view, nourishing kindness is not weaker than giving birth to kindness. If you are not grateful, you are a beast.

So, after discussion, the husband and wife, who don't like trouble the most, also decided to be more troublesome and intervene in the Wei family's affairs.

It is Gui Niang's choice where she puts herself, but she cannot be allowed to humiliate her by the juniors.

Chu Yu originally sympathized with Gui Niang, and said this extra sentence in order to eliminate the family anxiety that might arise; Yao Taijun was relieved, the old man is most grateful, and of course he will not be limited by his status, so he will despise Gui Niang .

From He's point of view, it was Chu Yu who relied on her status to promote the widowed concubine of the Wei family and suppress her niece.

Although she was annoyed in her heart, since her mother-in-law spoke, she didn't dare to be presumptuous, but the smile on her face became stiff, and she looked at Chu Yu with a bit of fear.

Who hasn't seen Chu Yu?
But Chu Yu knew that He loved her niece, and Chu Yu didn't care about it, but she was relatively speechless, so she had to ask about Ganoderma lucidum.

Yao Taijun knew that this was to put the Ganoderma lucidum on, so he smiled and said to Wei Wenjie: "Didn't your uncle just want to ask your younger brother to talk, hurry over there."

Wei Wenjie stood up and agreed, and he and his younger brother resigned from several elders before retreating.

After leaving the door, Wen Zhi put down his footsteps and said in a low voice: "Brother, always let the younger brother take a look at the sister-in-law. When the younger brother returns to Beijing, the aunt and younger sister are appointed to ask questions. It's not easy to ask three questions. After putting it on, I'm afraid it will be the same." You can only see it when the sedan chair enters the door."

Although Wen Jie didn't answer, he and Wen Zhi slowed down and walked around the door of the upper room.

When the servant girl invited He Lingzhi over, she happened to bump into the two brothers.

Seeing a foreigner, He Lingzhi hurriedly bowed his head to retreat, Wenjie hurriedly said: "Cousin, this is my second brother, he came here from the capital..."

Wen Zhi wanted to see his sister-in-law before, but he just wanted to find an opportunity to peek a few times, so that he could describe it to his aunt and sister when he went back, but he didn't want to hit it straight.

How to call this, Wen Zhi was a little tangled.The two are in the same age group, but they don't know the size of the month.

He Lingzhi was already blessed, and said: "I met my second cousin."

Wen Zhi could only say, "I met my cousin."

After seeing it, He Lingzhi lowered his head, confessed his crime, and helped the maid to go to the room.

Wen Zhi glanced at He Lingzhi's figure, frowned slightly, and when he turned his head, he couldn't see the clue.

Wen Jie looked at Wen Zhi nervously, and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

Wen Zhi couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, if he didn't talk about marriage, he, the younger brother, could still say a few words; it's a small decision, asking him how he is, wouldn't it be like an uncle criticizing his sister-in-law.

"Haha, big brother's vision is naturally good." Wen Zhi said with a smile.

Wen Jie turned his head and looked at the upper room, besides being happy, he was also a little nervous...

*
In the upper room, Chu Yu had already given He Lingzhi the gift of Xiaoding, which she had sent.

He Lingzhi has already taken off his clothes, but Wei Wenjie will enter Lotus Academy next year, so the wedding date is roughly expected to be at the end of next year.

Thirty miles away, it took only an hour and a half to ride in a horse-drawn carriage. Chu Yu was accompanied by Yao Taijun and Mrs. He for lunch and then returned to Qingyuan.

Although they are family relatives, Wenzhi is not familiar with Wei De's family, so he politely refused his brother's request to stay, and returned to Qingyuan with Chuyu.

The Longevity Festival is approaching, and the birthday gifts prepared by Cao Yong must first be transported back to the capital and entered through the Ministry of Rites.

Cao Yong left Wenzhi to live in the Governor's Mansion for a while, and planned to arrange for Tianyou to go to Beijing with Wenzhi.

Although Wenzhi is from martial arts, God bless them all from Wen, but because of his bright and cheerful temperament, he gets along very well with everyone.

Based on Wenjie's lessons learned, Chuyu was afraid that Wenzhi would also talk about her relationship, so she discussed with her husband whether she should ask Sister Lianqiu and Niuniu what she meant.If you want, you can get engaged to the two children as soon as possible.

I really feel sorry for Niuniu, and I can't bear to talk about it to other people's homes.

Cao Yong also knows that in this world, women are not easy, and being a wife is even more difficult.If they marry into someone else's family, even if they feel distressed, it's hard to say anything.

Although I feel that Wen Zhi is a little childish and not mature enough, but he is better than his brother because he has a pure heart.

Thinking of this, Cao Yong agreed.

Sister Lianqiu is very satisfied with Wei Wenzhi, since Wei Wenzhi is under the residence of Prince Zhuang, his future will be bright.

It's just that Niu Niu has always been thoughtful, and she was already in charge of the banyan courtyard's internal affairs when she was a teenager. The two sisters love her like a treasure, and they are willing to follow her wishes in matters of marriage, so they told Chu Yu that they should ask Niu Niu first. mean.

Chu Yu thought the same way, and the three of them asked someone to call Niuniu.

Unexpectedly, when Niuniu heard about her marriage, she was not as shy and coy as other little girls, but she was silent for a while before Fang raised her head and said: "In this world, the bond between husband and wife may not last long, but the bond of flesh and blood lasts forever... ..."

These words are so old-fashioned that Chuyu and Lianqiu sisters are a little confused.

Then I heard Niuniu continue to say: "Sister-in-law, can you find an honest family to talk about marriage for my aunt?"

Both Chuyu and Lianqiu were stunned, Xiqiu's face was already flushed, and she said angrily: "It's about your marriage, why are you talking about me, you child, you despise my aunt..."

Niuniu took a step forward, pulled Xiqiu's sleeve, and said: "Every time my aunt sees Tianbao, she can't take her eyes off her, and she doesn't like to let go when she hugs her. Even when Niuniu was young, my aunt was not like this...My aunt is only thirty, and she wants It's not difficult for a child..."

Xiqiu heard the words, her eyes were red, she hugged Niuniu and said: "Don't talk nonsense, although you didn't come out of my belly, you were brought up by me, and you are also my child..."

Chuyu and Lianqiu knew about Xiqiu's love for Tianbao, but they didn't think about it.

Among the children in the house, Tianbao is the youngest, and everyone is partial to each other. Xiqiu's behavior is not eye-catching.

After hearing Niuniu's words, Chuyu and Lianqiu realized how cruel it would be for Xiqiu to be a woman who loves children so much without her own flesh and blood...

*
When Cao Yong heard about this, he was very pleased, and said to Chu Yu, "It seems that Niuniu has really grown up."

He disapproved of Sister Lianqiu's widowhood, but compared with the comfort of the Cao family, there were too many changes outside, Sister Lianqiu was unwilling to take this step, and only devoted herself to raising Niuniu, Cao Yong could only follow them...
