good wife

Chapter 117: Marrying the In-laws (4)
Hei Ying scolded lightly: "What do you know? If you don't agree now, it doesn't mean you won't agree in the future! Both of them are still young, so it's only natural for her not to agree! Let's use these few years to make good use of it." Plan! Naturally, I have a way to teach her to accept this relative. Then you can wait to be the wife of the son of the Pingnan Houfu."

Cui Moli's face was filled with joy. With such a background, if she can marry into the Hou's mansion, she can only be a concubine!If you marry someone below the fourth-rank official position, you may still have a chance to be the main wife.But Jingwei grew up in Dingguo Duke's Mansion, and what she saw was a noble and luxurious life. Although what she enjoyed was not as good as Cui Qianqian's daughter-in-law, she was much better than ordinary ladies in the government!How willing to be the wife of a petty official!

Seeing the joy on Cui Moli's face, the black shadow was full of disdain!After all, he is a low-status person!So shameless at such a young age, she actually thought about how to marry a rich man!However, in a blink of an eye, that black shadow's eyes were covered with a layer of pride, and it was precisely because of this that she would willingly obey her, wasn't it?
Early the next morning, Cui Moli ordered someone to bring the ancient inkstone to her.Jingyi had someone put it into the warehouse. In order not to accept her gift in vain and not want to accept her love, she personally selected a red gold ruby ​​bracelet and asked someone to give it to Cui Moli.So I went to Dongkua courtyard to study "Nvjie".

And Mrs. Liu also came to Hou Mansion again early, went straight to Mrs. Gu's yard, and did not leave until near noon.

Jingyi came out from Nanny Hong, and went directly to greet Mrs. Gu.

"Mother, I heard that my aunt is here today?" Jingyi asked.

"Well, I've been here." Mrs. Gu said absent-mindedly.

Jingyi saw something wrong with Gu Shi's expression, and shook Gu Shi lightly, "What's wrong with mother? Do you have something on your mind?"

Mrs. Gu glanced at Jingyi, thought of what Mrs. Liu said, sighed and said, "Your aunt is here today to propose marriage to your elder brother."

"Propose marriage?" Jingyi screamed: "How old is eldest brother? Has anyone proposed marriage so early?"

Mrs. Gu patted her lightly, "Since your brother came back, there have been quite a few people who have come to propose marriage to your elder brother. Later, at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, mother said in front of the queen that your elder brother is still young and you don't plan to engage in such a small marriage. No more. Just this time, alas."

"What embarrassment is there for mother? Can you talk to your daughter?"

Gu looked straight at Jingyi, thinking that this daughter is the most caring, considerate and thoughtful, maybe she can really give her an idea?Thinking of this, he explained Liu's reason for coming.

After Jingyi listened, her eyes widened. Obviously she didn't expect that her aunt came to talk about Mrs. Dingguo?
It turned out that Mrs. Dingguo wanted Cui Qianqian and Su Qing to form a friendship between Qin and Jin.However, Mrs. Dingguo also knew that if the two families became in-laws, it would definitely give people the impression that the two families formed an alliance.Mrs. Dingguo fell in love with Su Qing, but she was afraid that Su Wei would disagree, so she first invited Mrs. Liu to find out.

Jingyi thought again about Cui Moli's performance yesterday.Could it be that Cui Moli knew about this?But if she knows it, she knows it, so what does it have to do with her?Why do you still come to please yourself?Just because her eldest brother might be her brother-in-law in the future?This is a bit too far-fetched!
Jingyi doesn't think about Cui Moli for now, but thinks about her father's embarrassment in court.He said to Mrs. Gu: "Mother, if you want to do this, father will not respond."

Mrs. Gu nodded, "I think so too. But Mrs. Dingguo is the queen's own sister! She is also the daughter of the Huguogong! Cui Qianqian has such a background and such a powerful family power, she is willing to marry into our house , I have wronged her. With her talent, appearance and family background, I am afraid that she is a good match if she marry into the royal family and become a concubine!"

Royalty?Jingyi's eyes lit up, and she was suddenly enlightened!

"Mother, I'm afraid that Mrs. Dingguo didn't want her daughter to marry into the royal family, that's why she made this arrangement."

Mrs. Gu was taken aback, "You mean, maybe the queen intends to get married to her, but the wife of Dingguo is not willing? But it shouldn't be. To be able to marry into the royal family and be the concubine of a prince, at least in the future The name is right? Why is she unwilling? "

Jingyi shook her head, "Mother, since ancient times, the gate of the palace is as deep as the sea. It's not easy for the empress to live in the palace all the way! I'm afraid that Mrs. Dingguo will see it all. Seeing how hard her own sister's journey was, how could she want her daughter to walk that journey too?"

Gu Shi was startled, obviously he hadn't thought of this.Indeed, everyone only saw the superficial motherhood of the queen, ruling the six palaces, with infinite scenery, but who saw the intrigue in that palace!For a man's favor, to climb higher in the palace, they fought to the death!
As a mother, if she really loved her child, she would naturally not want to send her daughter into that gorgeous cage.

Gu said again: "But how do we reply to her? After all, it's the Duke's wife, so we can't lose her face too much."

Jingyi smiled slightly, "What's so difficult about it? Just say it's what my father meant! Said that the eldest brother is too young now! He still needs to practice. Only after he has completed his experience can he consider the matter of marriage!"

Mrs. Gu shook her head and said, "I told your aunt what you said. But your aunt said that Mrs. Dingguo said that it was just an engagement first, not a marriage! How could it delay the child's studies! "

Jingyi pursed her lips and thought for a moment: "Mother, you can say that my father is worried that he is engaged, and he has concerns in his heart. As a general, the most taboo thing is to be distracted on the battlefield. He is already mature, so he will not be bothered by it. But big brother is only twelve now, how can he have such a good heart?"

When Gu Shi heard this, her eyes lit up, she looked at Jingyi with a smile, and said, "Yes! Why didn't I think of it? You are still a smart girl! Finally, I solved a problem for my mother. At noon, my mother can finally rest assured. It's time to eat."

Jingyi smiled sweetly, and said coquettishly: "Mother, since the daughter helped you solve the problem, what reward does mother have?"

Mrs. Gu chuckled, and tapped her forehead with her hands, with a look of doting on her face, "You! Tell me, what do you miss about mother again? Mother gave it to you!"

"Really? Does mother keep her word?"

"Naturally! When did mother coax you?"

"Okay, mother, my daughter wants the "Lady Picture" in your study, is mother willing?"

After hearing this, Gu said with a smile, "You! You really know how to choose! That painting is worth more than all the jewelry on your body combined! Well, if you like it, take it."

"Thank you, mother!" Jingyi hurriedly saluted, and then dragged Madam Liu to Gu's study.
