Carpenter's Lady

Chapter 88

Wu Mo'er, who was sitting next to the old lady, glanced at the girl who came in to report. She is the only daughter in the family who has not made a marriage contract. She is 25 years old, not to mention ten years older than her, and there is a couple of seven or eight-year-old children in the family, and the eldest son is already there, so she won't marry him!
But what about dad?Dad seemed to have said a few days ago that it would be great if more than one daughter of the right age in the family married to the Yunyang Hou Mansion, and it would be better if the mother helped her out, "Master, don't be confused, those who can match the son of the Yunyang Hou Mansion, Only our daughter-in-law can do it, and Mo'er is the only one in the family, you can't push her into the fire pit!"

"Look at what Madam said, our Mo'er has even praised the sage several times, how could it be cheaper for the Yunyang Hou Mansion!"

Having said that, Wu Mo'er could still feel her father's ambiguous eyes when he looked at her.

As early as when she came here, she knew that as the daughter of such a rich and rich family like the Wu family, sooner or later, she would have to pay the price for the carefree boudoir life of the past ten years, and her bargaining chip was marriage!

She tried her best to make her family recognize her ability. Whether it was the many books she wrote, the improvement of diet, or the design of shoes and clothing, her talent not only shocked her family, but even shocked the saints. However, she still could not change her. The fact that she is the daughter of the Wu family.

Listening to the old lady asking in surprise: "Is it the eldest son of the Yunyang Hou Mansion? Is he proposing to Mo'er?"

Wu Mo'er felt a chill in her heart. If she was just the daughter of an ordinary wealthy family, with her amazing talent and business acumen, she could already control her own destiny!
However, the Wu family is not just the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites in the capital city. The identity hidden underground is doomed for her to be unable to escape for the rest of her life.

Yes, the Yunyang Marquis Mansion holds one-third of the military power in the capital, how could Dad give up!

"No, old lady, it's Xiang, Miss Xiang Yuan!"

"What? Who are you talking about?" The old lady's sharp voice almost pierced Wu Mo'er's eardrum.

Wu Mo'er's first reaction was absurd, extremely absurd!

She looked at Wu Zhiyuan who was still kneeling on the ground. When did her back become so straight, what kind of eyes did she look at herself?
Wu Mo'er stretched her head to touch the teacup on the table. The tea that the girl just brought was still slightly hot.

Wu Zhiyuan looked at Wu Mo'er's eyes that suddenly became a little crazy, and her intuition was not good!She wanted to back away, but her legs were already numb after kneeling for a quarter of an hour, and she couldn't think about it before seeing that the teacup containing tea had already been thrown at her!

In the blink of an eye, Wu Zhiyuan didn't move, he just raised his right hand to cover his face, he could get hurt anywhere, except his face!This is her last blade!

"Mo'er, you are too impulsive!"

After the initial astonishment, Mrs. Wu has regained her senses. She is nothing more than a concubine on the sidelines.
Old Madam Wu glanced at the maid standing behind Wu Mo'er: "Bicui, help your lady go back to her room to rest!"

"Yes, old lady!" Bitui responded respectfully, and then she wanted to wait for the young lady to get up and go back to her room.

"let go!"

Wu Mo'er cut off her drink at the maid, and Bicui took a step back in shock.

Only then did Wu Mo'er stand up and pulled the old lady's sleeves: "Grandmother, Mo'er was reckless, Mo'er knew it was wrong, you can let Mo'er stay here! Mo'er is also very curious, the Marquis of Yunyang The eldest son of the mansion would actually ask to marry Sister Yuan, who has a bad reputation!"

As Wu Mo'er said that, she glanced at Wu Zhiyuan whose hair was dripping from the splash of tea, and seeing her in a mess, she felt extremely refreshed!Even if she, Wu Mo'er, didn't want it, she wouldn't allow such a lowly hoof to get her hands on it!
"Okay, then Mo'er, you can't be so rude to your sister Yuan anymore, go and help your sister Yuan up!" The old lady took out the hand that Wu Mo'er was holding, and picked up the teacup. Said.

Wu Mo'er glanced at Bicui, and Bicui immediately stepped forward to help Wu Zhiyuan up.

Mrs. Wu frowned slightly. This granddaughter, who used to have a delicate mind and meticulous handling of things, was praised twice by the sage, but now she has become arrogant!Man said that the one who came back to ask for marriage was the Marquis of Yunyang, even if the Ye family was willing to marry Wu Zhiyuan, Mo'er should treat her kindly, and from now on, it would be her Wu family's help!

Not to mention the good calculations of the old lady of the Wu family, nor to mention Wu Mo'er's anger. Within two days, the streets and alleys in the capital, teahouses and wine shops were full of discussions. Grab a hook woman!
This woman was born in Wu's family, Minister of Rites!

In addition to visiting Dean Li's old friends, Ah Zhu and Li Er fell in love with inquiring about these gossips all day long!He is short in stature and thin in build, he looks like a half-grown man, no one else thinks that he has anything to do with this erotic affair, they think he is just a young boy who is just curious about this romantic affair.

In addition to his ability, he added a lot of embellishments to his love affairs, which made Azhu's hands itch for a while, and he wanted to write a book about wit and beauty!
Wu Ling and Zhang Mu didn't know that Wu Zhiyuan had actually gone to the Wu family in the capital until Azhu's family letter in early April. After reading Azhu's letter, Zhang Mu couldn't help asking: "Sir, why do I remember that Wu Zhiyuan might not be from the Wu family?" With her blood, why would the Wu family in the capital take her in?" Isn't this kind of big family the most particular about blood?
After Wu Ling collected the letter, he said, "Lady, do you know that the families of high-ranking officials have the habit of taking in girls?" Especially fresh and tender girls, from the age of six or seven, they were raised in poetry, etiquette, piano, chess, singing and dancing. That is, when they are 13 years old, they will either go out as the dowry of the daughter at home, or they will be rewards in shopping malls and officialdom.

Isn't Wu Zhiyuan's aunt from such a background!
"Xianggong, what do you mean, the Wu family will support Wu Zhiyuan with one bite of food, so that they can be sold for a price?" Only at this time did Zhang Mu realize that there is still a gap between the half-way ancient and the people of this era. For example, the husband who grew up in the countryside can naturally think of these things, but she has always been much slower.

Zhang Mu couldn't help but rejoice that Yuanshen was just a woman from the countryside, otherwise it would be difficult for her to survive here!
"Miss, that's about it. I don't know why, but in my memory, the Wu family in Taizhou and the Wu family in Beijing don't seem to be as close as they were rumored to be." He's still young, but this memory is so deep for some reason, as if someone has babbled to him many times.

"Sanggong, let Ah Zhu no longer have to worry about these things, let him have a good time in the capital!"

Neither Zhang Mu nor Wu Ling thought that A Zhu would become famous in the imperial examination. They vaguely guessed that it would be very good for A Zhu to come back with a fellow Jinshi. Then everyone will be happy!
The son of Yunyang Houfu also received Wu Zhiyuan who wanted to marry Wu Zhiyuan, as well as the Huafu behind the Women's School on West Street. After listening to Huayi's report, Mrs. Hua sat in front of the dressing table, speechless for a long time. Her first feeling was that Fake, second feeling, still fake!

It's just another means for that person to achieve his goal, but, on the Yun family tree, is another Yun's wife going to be engraved again!

"Huayi, tell me, is my hair reaching my knees?" Huashi took the comb from the servant girl and combed it over and over again, from the head to the bottom. The man said that she loves her hair the most. Hair like an ink cloud, smooth as satin.

"Ma'am, don't worry too much. Wu Zhiyuan's reputation is stained even if he doesn't reveal his background. The majestic Hou Mansion will never marry such a woman back to be the clan's wife!"

Huayi looked at her master sad, and felt a little uncomfortable. They have been hiding here for several years, are they waiting for another news from the prince?
Not to mention the master, even if she is a maid, she is not reconciled in her heart!

"Huayi, don't communicate with Jingli in the future. I heard the lady of the Li family once said that when she goes to school next spring, if she wants to go outside, let's go too!" I can't take it anymore, I wait hopelessly day by day, day by day, heart-biting lovesickness!
"Master, I will listen to you! Go wherever you say! Huayi will follow you wherever you go!"

Looking at the maid's reddish eye circles, Hua couldn't help but mock in her heart, that person is not even as good as her maid!

A Zhu received a family letter from Tongtai County, seeing that her brother and sister-in-law told her not to think about Wu Zhiyuan's matter, and they didn't take it seriously. The brother and sister-in-law didn't know, this matter was no longer something he cared about or not, it was already a topic of conversation in the capital after dinner It's so easy to cut, Ye Tong didn't know why, but he was on the shoulders with the Yunyang Houfu!

While gnawing on the roast chicken, Ah Zhu asked Li Er, "Second brother Li, tell me, did Ye Tong lose his mind? Lady, is it worth his concern? You don't want to call off the engagement yet!"

"Hey, little brother Azhu, you don't know, the women in the Goulan have a lot of tricks, Mr. Ye is also a fledgling young gentleman, I'm afraid he won't be able to resist the temptation of Miss Wu's family!" Li Er muttered After drinking a big bowl of tea, I didn't forget to wink at A Zhu!

Azhu sneered, he didn't believe that Ye Tonghui was so brainless, he could figure out his father's marriage and let his father marry Chu Rui!Can it still be planted on a woman!
But this Wu Zhiyuan really has some skills, he was able to climb up to Ye Tong and the eldest son of Yunyang Hou Mansion successively!
A Zhu put down the roast chicken wrapped in oil paper in his hand, and poured two sips of tea, thinking of the news in the capital these days that Ye Tong plotted against his father, who was originally the wife Ye Tong should marry, but ended up marrying his father, What Wu Zhiyuan and Chu Rui murdered the son of the Wu family, what Ye Tong climbed into the bed of the daughter of Wu Shangshu's family!
Whoops, the capital city is comparable to their town, no, the county is much more exciting, the whole day is as lively as rehearsing a play!
"Second Brother Li, tell me, wouldn't it be nice to live in the capital?"

"Smash the ground, little brother Ah Zhu wants to stay in the capital? Let me tell you, it's a place of right and wrong! Look at Mr. Ye, he was a clean little man in the academy before, but now, what is he like! Our small place is good, not to mention the beautiful mountains and rivers, but life is more worry-free!"

A Zhu looked at the seemingly simple and honest, but often extremely alert Second Brother Li, only felt that these words went deep into his heart!

Isn't it just a vortex!
