Good morning Mr. Zhongtang

Chapter 7

Tong Wanrou had been waiting in the room early in the morning, sitting in front of the west window looking at the flowers, when she heard someone running from the outer courtyard, the voice sounded like a long follower beside Ama, her heart tightened inexplicably, she sat up straight, and looked towards the door .

Sure enough, after a while, Xibao sent a message on behalf of the nurse in the outer courtyard:

"Miss, my master invites you to the living room."

Tong Wanrou stood up from the chair, and unconsciously looked at herself in the bronze mirror. She was gentle and supple with decent makeup, which must have left a good impression on him.

After walking out of the door, there were already two nuns guarding outside. After saluting to Tong Wanrou, they walked in front of Tong Wanrou, one left and one right, to lead the way.

Just as she was about to walk up the flower path in the living room, she ran into Wu Zhi who was waiting by the door. Wu Zhi came over and took Tong Wanrou's hand, and said to her:
"Don't be afraid, Ama and Er Niang are here. You just need to show up and say 'no' to them. Er Niang has already made an agreement with the eldest lady of the Fucha Mansion. As soon as this bastard returns, the eldest lady will be able to return home tomorrow." So I asked the sixth son to come to propose marriage. This sixth son is the eldest wife's son, and he will enter the palace as an servant next year. If he plays well, he may be able to formally enter the official career in the next year, and his future is boundless."

"..."

Tong Wanrou looked at E Niang and said nothing, and Wu Shi felt a little guilty when she saw her, but thinking about her daughter's character of being so quiet, she explained all kinds of truths clearly, so she shouldn't be confused, so she went He patted the back of her hand twice, and then the two went to the living room together.

The atmosphere in the living room was somewhat stagnant. Tong Ruzhang and the father-in-law in the palace sat at the head, and Fu Heng stood alone in the hall. When he came earlier, Wu Zhi saw the fifty dowry gifts placed in the courtyard, and couldn't help but sneer secretly .

Walking into the hall, Fu Heng saw that it was Wu Shi who came in person, so he turned around and walked over. He gave Wu Shi a junior salute without being humble or overbearing, and then glanced at Tong Wanrou. The two people's eyes just met. Lowering his head, Fu Heng had mixed feelings in his heart.

Ever since he met her charming smile without makeup at the bridge last year, he has been fascinated by it ever since, and there is no one else in his heart. He doesn't know how there is a woman with such a beautiful smile in this world, pure and untainted by any dust in the world.

His unrequited love is undoubtedly happy, and of course there are all kinds of bitterness in it, and he knows that today, no matter whether it is his happiness or bitterness, there will be a result, and this result cannot be said a thousand times. Shake him a bit, but as long as it comes from her mouth, no matter what the result is, he will accept it willingly.

Wushi blocked himself in front of Tong Wanrou, blocked the eyes of the two of them, glared fiercely at this handsome young man with a low status, and brought his daughter to Tong Ruzhang's side.

Tong Ruzhang glanced at San Dezi, put his fist under his lips, coughed lightly, and then said to Tong Wanrou:

"Wanrou, this is the father-in-law of San Dezi in the palace. Ama rejected this shapeless boy for you, but the father-in-law wants to hear from you personally, so you tell the father-in-law, do you want to marry?"

When Fu Heng heard this, his jaw tensed and his fists clenched. He felt that his muscles could no longer move freely. He just stared at Tong Wanrou's slender and beautiful figure in a daze.

Tong Wanrou had never experienced such a tense scene before, and her body stiffened unconsciously. Under Ama's expectant gaze and Er Niang's soft urging, she took a small step forward, facing the father-in-law San Dezi in the palace. , said clearly:
"I am willing to marry."

"..."

The atmosphere at the scene was more stagnant than before, but it was only for a moment. Wu Shi and Tong Ruzhang looked at their daughter completely dumbfounded. Wu Shi looked at her daughter dumbfounded, stretched out his hand to touch her forehead, and said:

"What nonsense are you talking about, do you have a fever?"

Then he immediately turned around and said to San Dezi: "Don't misunderstand, father-in-law. She has been frightened in the paddock since that day. She has been running a fever since she came back, and she hasn't recovered until today. She, she just told me that she doesn't want to."

How could San Dezi not know Tong Ruzhang and Wu's thoughts, remembering what his master told him before he left the palace, San Dezi rolled his eyes, skipped Wu's again, and asked Tong Wanrou directly:

"Miss, is that so?"

Tong Wanrou ignored Wu Shi's eyeballs that were about to drop, took a deep breath, and said to San Dezi: "No, I'm not delusional, I'm really willing to marry him."

After finishing speaking, Tong Wanrou cast her eyes on Fu Heng, who was looking at her incredulously, his black jade-like eyes were full of surprise, and that kind of surprise seemed to be highly contagious. Sex, Tong Wanrou, who was originally extremely nervous, was also contaminated with his happiness, and became less nervous.

Tong Ruzhang stood up abruptly from his seat, pointed at Tong Wanrou and Fu Heng, he was so angry that he was speechless, and was about to summon the guards, when he saw San Dezi take out a bright yellow scroll from his sleeve , a high-pitched voice shouted:
"Tong Jia Wan Rou, Fu Cha Fu Heng received the order..."

A matter that lingers in the hearts of many people in the two families has finally come to an end.It's just that some people are happy and some are worried.

Because it was Tong Wanrou who opened the mouth in person, the Tong family was caught off guard, and the father-in-law San Dezi in the palace helped in time - read out the imperial decree, once the imperial decree was read, Tong Wanrou and Fu Heng's marriage was settled.No matter how much dissatisfaction Tong Ruzhang and Wu Zhi had, they couldn't talk it over.

After accepting the betrothal gift from Fu Heng, Wushi fainted on the spot, and Tong Ruzhang also pointed at Tong Wanrou and stared at Tong Wanrou for a long time, but couldn't say anything, and left with a flick of his sleeve.

Tong Wanrou returned to the courtyard alone, her heart was still beating violently, she finally dared to do something against Ama and Erniang, it didn't feel too good, until now she was sitting in her little In the yard, I still feel a little unbelievable.

With a mood of secret joy, she watched the servants carry all the fifty betrothal gifts into her small courtyard. She walked through the betrothal boxes in a good mood and looked at them. She didn't think these things were shabby. On the contrary, she also felt that, The person who prepared these betrothal gifts must have put their minds to it, as long as it was anything she could think of, these betrothal gifts were all included.

While playing with a pair of cute jade rabbit hairpins, Tong Youqing hurried in from the outside, presumably because she had heard about today's events, so her expression was not very good, she snatched the hairpins from her hand, and threw them into the out of the box, and said to Tong Wanrou in a fierce tone never before:
"Why are you crazy today? Do you know what the consequences of your actions are? Do you know how low that Fu Heng is in the Fucha family? Do you know that he is a bastard? My sister is going to marry a bastard... Ha, it's ridiculous, extremely ridiculous!"

Regarding Tong Youqing's obvious venting, Tong Wanrou didn't express too much, just looked at him for a while, then lowered her head, seeing that she still looked like this, Tong Youqing couldn't help but continued to say angrily:

"You know that you will become the laughing stock of the entire capital, everyone will laugh at you, and laugh at Tong Jia's being a silly girl."

Tong Wanrou still lowered her head and did not speak, she picked up a piece of jade pendant around her waist and began to play with it. Tong Youqing was so angry that she wanted to throw something, but looked around, but found nothing that he could throw without having to bear the consequences. So I endured it.

Pointing to Tong Wanrou, he said, "You are like this, and you will suffer from it in the future."

After hearing this, Tong Wanrou finally raised her head, looked him in the eyes, and said, "No way. Fu Heng won't make me suffer."

Seeing her sister's innocent face, Tong Youqing couldn't help laughing: "My good sister, why do you think so?"

Tong Wanrou thought for a while, blinked her beautiful big eyes twice, and then said to Tong Youqing without any grievances: "Because, he really likes me."

"..."

After hearing her sister's words, Tong Youqing sighed heavily: "I really like you... How much is his sincerity, a bastard, worth!" Seeing Tong Wanrou's expression of disapproval, Tong Youqing couldn't help showing the bloody reality to her said:
"Well, even if he is sincere to you. But, why does he protect you, and what does he give you to give you a stable life? He is a bastard, and people will look down on him when he goes out to work. What good job can he find? You What kind of life did you live in Tong's house, can he afford the same standard as you as a bastard?"

"..."

Maybe Tong Youqing's words were a little heavy, which made Tong Wanrou stunned for a while, and when Tong Youqing started to reflect on herself, she should not scare her sister, Tong Wanrou spoke again.

"Even if he can't afford it, I want to marry him."

"..."

Tong Youqing looked up to the sky and sighed.

Okay, so much has been said, for nothing!Her younger sister has been stubborn since she was a child, and she can pinch water when she looks docile, but once it is something she decides, she will not turn back even if her head is smashed.

Tong Youqing was ordered to come to persuade, but returned in vain, frustrated. Not long after he left, Wu Zhi, who woke up from a coma, came to kill him again.

As soon as he came in, he overturned several dowry gifts, and came to Tong Wanrou in a mess all the way, and yelled uncontrollably:
"Rebellious girl! I told you all the truth, but you are still confused."

Tong Wanrou looked at the mess all over the place, and the previous happy mood disappeared. Looking at her mother who seemed to have fallen into madness, Tong Wanrou sighed helplessly, and said:

"Emiang, I have grown up and know what I want. My daughter thinks that Fu Heng is very good, different from other bastards."

Wushi took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down: "A bastard is a bastard, even if his heart is higher than the sky, what's the use of it? You are confused about this."

Knowing that Er Niang was feeling sorry for her, although Tong Wanrou had thousands of words to defend Fu Heng in her heart, she also knew that it was inappropriate to say it at this time. She wanted to go up to give Wu Zhi a hug, but Wu Zhi strongly pushed her away. Open, I saw Wushi suddenly pointing at her with a more gloomy face and said:
"Anyway, this is your fate! It's a ridiculous thing for a good-looking concubine to marry a concubine who has nothing. If you are willing to degenerate, don't blame Erniang for being cruel, I won't care about you anymore." .You can marry whoever you like. If you get angry in the future, don’t come back, there is no home for you anymore.”

"..."

Tong Wanrou looked at Wushi, gradually lowered her raised arm, and then slowly lowered her head.

Seeing her like this, Wu Zhi was so angry that he wanted to explode. When he turned around, he also left a resounding sentence that echoed in Tong Wanrou's yard:
"Go ahead and marry. The Tong Jia family will not marry you off as a daughter-in-law, and of course there will be no dowry. From then on, you and the Tong family will be cut off!"

Tong Wanrou watched her furious mother leave her small courtyard, and then looked at the mess in the courtyard, she couldn't help smiling wryly, bent down, picked up the betrothal gifts that had been overturned by her mother one by one, and sighed faintly. Take a breath.
