Chapter 50

Watching the play did not continue, but watching a good play actually saw it.Jing Shu and Xiao Luo walked across the garden from the path to the stage, passed a small bridge, passed a rockery, and when they were about to turn a corner, they heard someone talking in front of them.

Who is it? This place is said to be quite remote, and there are so many customers today that there is no one who can relax.

Jing Shu and Xiao Luo looked at each other, and both of them consciously hid beside the rockery. Of course, their servants also hid with their master.Watching a good show, listening to gossip, rockery is a necessary scene for home travel, haha!

I only heard a delicate girl's voice saying: "I've seen my big cousin."

Big cousin?
A man's voice had an unexpected tone, "You are Cousin Zhou? Isn't Sister Yan looking for me?"

Hearing this, both of them knew who was talking, one was the eldest brother Xiao Ming, and the other was the second old lady's grandniece Zhou Xinyue.It sounds like the elder brother was tricked to come here, what is this Zhou Xinyue up to?
"Third cousin has something to do and left, let me wait here for eldest cousin." Zhou Xinyue said softly.

Jing Shu could swear that she was really aroused by this voice, and looked at the third brother, it seemed to be the same.

"This is that Zhou Xinyue?" Xiao Luo asked quietly: "Why is this voice so unrestrained?"

Don't pinch it, the voice will naturally soften when you are next to the man you like.favorite man?Could it be that Zhou Xinyue has taken a fancy to big brother this week?

But why did he get involved with sister Yan again?This is complicated, there are many guests today, so don't let anything happen, otherwise the reputation of the Duke Protector's Mansion will be ruined.

Unexpectedly, the eldest brother really did not disappoint Jingshu, "In this case, I will go back first, and when my cousin sees Sister Yan, tell her that I will wait for her in my yard, and she will naturally know."

"Oh, big cousin, this, me,"

"Brother, I've been looking for you for a long time, so you are here, why don't you hurry up and go outside with me, uncle is anxious to find you." Xiao Luo appeared at the right time, interrupting what Zhou Xinyue was about to say.

Third brother, well done!

Xiao Ming saw Xiao Luo smile lightly, and said, "Let's go, we brothers haven't talked together for a long time, so let's chat along the way." After speaking, he ignored Zhou Xinyue who was behind, and left with Xiao Luo. Xiao Luo quietly winked at Jing Shu, Jing Shu nodded, she didn't want to go out now, she had to wait for Zhou Xinyue to leave anyway, so as not to let Zhou Xinyue know that she saw her embarrassment and felt thorny in her heart.

After seeing Xiao Ming and Xiao Luo walk away, Zhou Xinyue kneaded the handkerchief on her hand until it almost turned into moldy dried vegetables.Seeing no one around, he stomped his feet.Just stood there blankly for a long time, why don't you leave, Jing Shu thought to herself.

Just as Jingshu was waiting impatiently, sister Yan came over.

"How about it, did you talk to my elder brother?" Sister Yan looked excited?
Ok?What's happening here?Jing Shu pricked up her ears, or people like to eavesdrop, the feeling of eavesdropping is really cool, the premise is that you want to eavesdrop on your life.

Zhou Xinyue changed into a weak look again, and shook her head, "I appreciate my sister's kindness, and my eldest cousin has something to leave."

"How could this be? Cousin Xinyue, don't be discouraged. I'll help you call your elder brother over next time. Let me tell you, I like people like you to be my sister-in-law. I'm not happy with others."

Zhou Xinyue blushed, "Third cousin, don't talk about it, how can a girl say this? Besides, the eldest cousin is already engaged, how can I be so high?"

"Hmph, so what if we're engaged? As long as my elder brother likes you, it's okay to call off the marriage right away? Then the people in Zhenyuan Hou's mansion don't know what kind of people they are. What if they have the same temper as my third aunt? That would be bad!
It's still as good as you, gentle and considerate, I don't know what my father and mother think, so I settled for my elder brother so early, don't you know that there will be better things in the future?Don't worry, you are in our house now, so you can say that you are close to the water, and I will help you. "

My dear, when will Sister Yan be so helpful?But it's bad for her to be so helpful.I'm really convinced by this girl, what do you think?So the marriage can be withdrawn immediately?
It is impossible for Zhou Xinyue to have any relationship with her eldest brother in the future. This is a matter between two aristocratic families. You thought it was a matter between young children.

If there is really anything to do, it is just to keep that Zhou Xinyue as a side room, and for the sake of the face of the main room, she will never give the elder brother Auntie before the main room enters the door. Jing Shu really convinced Sister Yan, usually It's a trivial matter if you can't get along with yourself, the big deal is that you don't care about her, but what is this called now?

It's completely upgraded, and it might kill someone!

This week Xinyue is really good at it. Seeing that the matter with the second brother is not over, she even took aim at the eldest brother by herself, and now she asks Neng Shudongyan to help her.Does this count as Xiao Baihua's successful experience?

However, this kind of thing has to be controlled by the elder brother himself, otherwise, even if others persuade him, it will be useless.

The eldest brother is 17 years old this year, will he fall in love with Zhou Xinyue, who is only 13 years old?Looking at the appearance just now, the eldest brother also has a sense of proportion in his heart, but he can't keep it. This week Xinyue went to deliver soup again.

Zhou Xinyue, you are still an immature little girl, why are you so precocious?Jing Shu can only say that she admires, admires!

It seems that I am out of date. Think about it, isn't the elder sister, Sister Fen, at the same age that she has a crush on Mr. Wang?Girls from ancient times, you really opened my eyes to Jing Shu, who said that no one knows you in a boudoir?
People don't take the initiative to know people.

After finally waiting for the two people to walk away, Jing Shu came out from the rockery, and Yun Xiu said worriedly: "What about the girl?"

Jingshu rubbed her arms, "Find someone to tell my aunt about this quietly. I believe my aunt will have a way. Remember, don't let others find out that we know about it. Also, this matter must be kept secret." If the word spread, it might have helped Zhou Xinyue.

The servants in the mansion have intricate relationships, either here or there, I believe this is not difficult for Yunxiu, as expected Yunxiu nodded after listening.It's not that Jingshu wants to meddle in other people's business, it's because she's afraid that sister Yan will be stupid, and everyone will lose face in the end.

Jing Shu calmly went to the stage to watch the show again, and Sister Ting hurriedly said: "Sixth sister, you are here, the old lady has been waiting for a long time.

"Jingshu knew that Mrs. Zheng was going to show off her granddaughter in front of everyone again, so she hurriedly arranged her clothes, and walked over with a smile.

After this banquet, Fan really didn't know where she knew what Sister Yan was doing, so she was detained in her room under the pretext of trying to control Sister Yan's temper, and she asked the servant girl to be on guard against Zhou Xinyue When she came to look for her, Zhou Xinyue bumped into the wall a few times, and knew that she was not welcome anymore, so she was dispirited.

The second old lady of her great-aunt saw her and asked, "Xinyue, what's uncomfortable, tell my great-aunt, my great-aunt will make the decision for you."

Zhou Xinyue shook her head and said, "Grandaunt, don't worry about Xinyue. Xinyue knows who she is, and has been embarrassing her. It's Xinyue's fault."

"Stupid boy, what are you talking about? You have no parents since you were a child. I don't love you. Who loves you? Don't be discouraged. It takes a long time for everything to happen. My aunt will definitely let you get what you want. You are still young, we still have a few years left , I don’t believe that you can’t marry into a good man’s family! It’s really not possible, and there are cousins ​​Xiao Pei and Xiao Che on your side.” The second old lady really thinks about everything, does she want to marry all the men in the Xiao family? Count it all over again.

In fact, the second old lady thought of these two grandchildren, and it was the last helpless move. Why is it so difficult to marry a girl now?

Think about Brother Yong from the third room over there. He is only 11 years old this year and younger than Xinyue. Although he is the son of a concubine, he is indeed born of a concubine. If the family is separated in the future, he will not be able to get much property. In fact, she is the most optimistic about it. Xiao Yan, however, went to Beisai, because he brought up this matter, and even had a very unpleasant quarrel with his sister-in-law.

He wanted to brazenly tell Xiao Luo about Xinyue, but it probably wouldn't work.And Xinyue girl probably took a fancy to Xiao Ming again.But Xiao Ming's family has already made an engagement, and the betrothed object is the daughter of Lord Hou, which is incomparable. Could it be that letting Xinyue become a child, just like Che'er and his aunt?The second old lady couldn't bear it.She also counted on Xinyue to be good-looking, and through him, she would bring her natal family together.How can I have this ability to be a second bedroom?So Xiao Ming's side can't work.

As for his own son, Yongquan, because he had a lot of ties to his maternal ancestor's family in the early years, he could not be counted on him.If Xinyue is betrothed to Brother Pei, will this improve the relationship with her natal family?

The second old lady's head is not bright, she thinks it out, she completely forgets how bad she was to Qian Shi before, and always thinks that she is Xiao Pei's grandmother, so she has the final say on this matter?
So she excitedly called Mrs. Qian over again, and said the matter again, "I think this is a happy event for getting closer and closer. Brother Pei and Xinyue grew up as childhood sweethearts, and they happen to be a good match. You Find a time to settle this matter."

Qian's teeth were itching with hatred in her heart, and she said without showing it on her face: "The old lady ordered that the daughter-in-law shouldn't disobey. It's just that the master didn't say anything. When the master knows about it, the daughter-in-law will not be able to explain it."

"Your master is my son. How could he not agree with what I said as a mother? Well, don't say anything else, you have to deal with this matter quickly!"

"Madam, what's the matter with you?" Yue'er, the eldest girl of the Qian family, exclaimed hurriedly. The second old lady saw that it was her daughter-in-law who had passed out. imperial physician.

Qian Shi was sent back to his room, and he opened his eyes only when there was no one around.Said to Yue'er: "Thanks to your cleverness, otherwise the old lady would have noticed it, and it would be difficult to step down!"

It turned out that Qian saw that this matter did not make sense, and the old lady was in a hurry to ask herself to agree, how could she be willing?The master hadn't come back yet, so he pretended to be sick without hesitation, so that the old lady could not succeed.

Yue'er smiled lightly: "It's better for the wife to do it, the slave and maidservant just follow the order of the wife." The master and servant have a perfect understanding.When the imperial doctor came over, he just said that the wife was overworked and needed to rest for a few days, and left a prescription, and sent someone to fetch the medicine and boil it.

Sister Juan came to visit her mother in a hurry, and only then did she know that her mother was fine, but her grandmother was involved, and she was a junior, so she couldn't say anything about her elders, she just coaxed her mother, hoping that she would be in a better mood.

The two sons, Xiao Pei and Xiao Che, naturally also came to say hello, but they were dispatched by Mrs. Qian, and told them to study well and not to worry about their own affairs.

When Xiao Yongquan came back from work outside, he knew that his wife was ill, so he went to the old lady's place and came over.

"Ma'am, why did you faint all of a sudden? Did something scare you? I just went to my mother's place, and she didn't look good." Xiao Yongquan asked.

Mrs. Qian hurriedly said: "It's still the master who sees it clearly. In fact, half of my illness is out of fear, and half of it is a last resort." As he said that, the old lady forced him to decide on Brother Pei's marriage today. The matter was told to Xiao Yongquan.

"At that time, if I was not sick, if I agreed to this matter, wouldn't it make the master feel uncomfortable? Master, what do you think can be done?"

Knowing that Xiao Yongquan had a heart-to-heart relationship with his maternal ancestral family, Qian would never agree to this marriage, and besides, that happy girl has no roots, how will it help her son in the future?With such a weak temperament, how can she be the eldest grandson's wife?
You know, this eldest granddaughter-in-law will be in charge of the family in the future, and if she wants to let others know that her daughter-in-law is an orphan with no father and no mother, or is she fostered in her own home, can she not be laughed off?

Xiao Yongquan was annoyed when he heard this, why did his mother always do some inconsequential things?That happy little girl raised her in the mansion because of her mother's face, but how could she be her own daughter-in-law?
Mother, mother, is your grandson or your niece and grandniece important?Why don't you think about thinking about your grandson?

If Brother Pei really marries such a wife, how can there be any help in the future?
"Don't worry, ma'am, you don't have to worry about this matter. I will tell my mother myself. I have already greeted several colleagues, and they are all willing to marry us. Some of them I like very much. I wanted to choose again." One pick, I don’t think I can care about it now, I have to tell my mother for a while that I’m already talking to another family, and I can’t break my promise with others, so my mother has nothing to say.”

Qian shi was secretly happy, as long as the master was willing to go up and talk, then he would have no worries, at most the old lady would say a few words in the end, anyway, the old lady didn't like her in the first place, and she didn't want to do it again.

She is a daughter-in-law, so she can't confront her mother-in-law head-on. The master is her own son, and the old lady won't be really angry if she says a few words to her.

After hearing Xiao Yongquan's words, the second old lady said angrily, "Is there such a coincidence? I just told your wife about it, and this Brother Pei is negotiating marriage outside? Don't you put me, the old woman, on the table?" In your eyes, deliberately disgusting me like this?"

Xiao Yongquan hurriedly said: "How can I do it? Mother also knows that I have been walking outside with my former colleagues these days. After going back and forth, they asked about their children. They knew that the son's eldest son was not engaged, so they thought about it. The son thought, everyone is in the officialdom, and they all know the basics. Became in-laws, if there is something to do, it would be nice to help, right?

So the son agreed, and was about to talk to your mother. I didn't expect to hear about it as soon as I came back. Look, mother, I must not break my promise with others. If this is the case, my reputation in the officialdom will be ruined But if it is ruined, they will definitely say that since the son has already betrothed the eldest son, why pretend that there is no such thing?
Now my son has offended many people, and everyone thinks I'm a slanderous person. "

The second old lady couldn't refute what she said. If it really made her son's reputation bad, how would the whole family live in the future?But after thinking about it, he was still not reconciled, "Didn't you say that you were just thinking about it? You could also say that you didn't like it."

Xiao Yongquan said: "My mother told my daughter to Brother Pei with good intentions, can I say that I didn't like it? Wouldn't that mean that I looked down on him?" Oh, this is really, what is it called.

"Then what do you say about Xinyue girl? You can't let her be helpless in the future.

Originally, I wanted to tell her about Brother Yan from your second cousin's family, but it didn't work, and now you don't want to tell Brother Pei, what will you do if you make Xinyue happy? "

Xiao Yongquan is speechless, why is my mother so confused, brother Yan from the second cousin's family, and brother Pei from my own family don't like it, you actually fell in love with brother Yan, needless to say that brother Yan is the second cousin His eldest son, but the second cousin is now the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, so he absolutely can't, not to mention the second cousin also has a concubine and sister in the palace, who really dares to think!

"Mother, don't do this in the future. These are all relatives. How can a girl tell so many reasons? Others spread the word. What will you say about Xinyue in the future? Mother, don't worry, Xinyue We must take her marriage into consideration, and it will definitely make her well-fed and well-fed in the future. Mother is getting older, so she should take good care of her and worry less. No, if I take care of it properly, it will not be a few days. The official document will come down, and we still have to go to other places in the future. Take advantage of this time to rest well, otherwise the journey will be unbearable."
