The Red Mansion is so charming

Chapter 28: Looking for a Husband for a Girl in Every Way

Young people recover their physical strength quickly, or maybe the Zhang family's wound medicine is really easy to use. Gu Erlang was able to walk on the ground within two or three days, and new flesh appeared on his waist and teeth. In addition, the third aunt of the Xing family did not hesitate Gu Erlang is very grateful for money, good fish and good meat to make up for.

Lu Shi has his own little plan in mind, this Gu Erlang is a concubine, and there is an elder brother who is a concubine above him, so in the future he is not allowed to separate the family and go out to live alone.The governor of Liangjiang is also a fat job, so he will not let his son go out like a beggar.Gu Erlang is good-looking and has a good personality. Anyway, Lu Shi is pleasing to the eyes of him now.

The third aunt of the Xing family saw it, and smiled secretly: "Sister-in-law, don't you fall in love with him? It's a good match for our Xiuyan!"

Lu Shi was also unambiguous, what was she afraid of for her daughter?Mrs. Lu sat next to the third aunt's grandmother, "Third aunt, I think Erlang's child is really nice and polite. Although he is a young master from a rich family, he doesn't look sloppy at all. If you don't talk about it, take Lian As far as my brother is concerned, although it is good, but it is not me who is an aunt, to be honest, I really lack a bit of decent style."

Grandma Sangu smiled and said, "You've got the point, so I'll just say it, why every time I look at Second Master Lian, I always feel a little weird, so it's this. Sister-in-law, this common saying is good, men are afraid of getting into the wrong line, women I'm afraid of marrying the wrong man, Xiuyan is your heart, and in the future you will have to accompany most of your family fortune to her, it's really important to choose a steady and steady boy."

Seeing what the third aunt's grandmother said, Mrs. Lu gave a long sigh: "It's not that I don't feel sorry for Zhengde. He is also my son. In the future, the same family property will be shared equally with his siblings, but I am afraid that some people will spread some gossip. Now Zhengde She's still young, ignorant, and the family is tightly controlled, but what if she gets older? What if she gets distracted with his sister and Xiuyan finds something that doesn't match her appearance, won't it be my daughter who suffers?"

The third aunt was horrified, and hurriedly asked: "What? Could there be some rumors?" The elder brother's family picked up a child as their own son, and the third aunt knew about it early on. Although she wanted to persuade her, she was married out after all. Daughter, don't take care of your brother and sister-in-law.For a long time in this world, the third aunt loves the house and loves Wu, and also regards Zhengde as her own nephew. Now she heard what her sister-in-law meant, so she hurriedly inquired about it.

"There haven't been any rumors yet, but you should know her third aunt, people's hearts are unpredictable, and I'm afraid that someone will miss the Xing family's property and fall into Zhengdebu's trap." Lu Shi also had the idea of ​​leaving Suzhou, The idea of ​​reliving their lives in a place where no one knew their details seemed to be delayed for a few years as the husband rose through the ranks.

The third aunt thought for a while, then pondered: "I don't think Zhengde is that kind of person, don't worry, sister-in-law, Zhang Yi is a good boy, and will definitely protect his sister from being bullied in the future."

Although Lu's and Sangu's grandma are half-way relatives, they are very fond of this kind-hearted sister-in-law.Lu Shi took the third aunt's grandmother to talk about the past, and every word and sentence inevitably brought up the sadness of the third aunt's grandmother, and complained a lot about their irresponsible elder sister who was married.

On the [-]th day, every household in the village lit up smoke early in the morning, regardless of whether the family was poor or rich, for the dinner of the New Year's Eve, each family competed to show their housekeeping skills, and it was bound to make the reunion feast impressive.The Zhang family hired three long-term laborers who didn't have to do anything else on weekdays except to take care of the dozens of buffalo girls.Their daughter-in-law also works as a rough envoy in the Zhang family, so for the New Year's Eve dinner, the third aunt of the Xing family does not need her brother and sister-in-law's family to provide one person. It takes a whole morning to prepare the ingredients that should be prepared, and cook what should be cooked. There are five large venues. The aroma of various vegetables wafted from the courtyard, and the gluttons were about to come out.

Although Uncle Zhang was a serious host, he was a bit cautious in front of Xing Zhong. He gave up the main seat at the beginning of the dinner and had to ask Xing Zhong to sit.

"The family is reunited, and there is no need to divide the seats. The picture is just for fun." Xing Zhong looked at Gu Erlang with a smile: "Erlang is also welcome, your injury is not healed, if you can't sit still, you can lie on the couch next to you. Well, we don't care about that."

Gu Erlang was full of gratitude, and his eyes couldn't help but flicked to the two girls sitting opposite.Gu Erlang was slightly taken aback. Although he had heard that Uncle Xing had a daughter, when he saw two beauties sitting in front of him, Gu Erlang still bowed his head shyly.

Lu Shi, who was on the side, had a panoramic view of the scene, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened.

Mrs. Lu kicked Xing Zhong's shoe under the table. Xing Zhong was drinking with Jia Lian and almost choked, which aroused everyone's suspicion.Seeing that his wife's eyes were getting darker, Xing Zhong hurriedly wiped the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Erlang, I have already sent a letter to the governor. I guess your family will come to pick you up in two or three days. What are your plans?"

When everyone heard the words, they put down their cups and cups, and looked at Gu Erlang curiously.

"What plans can I have? Uncle and aunt may not know that the situation in my family is complicated. Although there is an eldest brother who is a direct descendant, he was born to the previous wife, and the mother has nothing to do. So I put the third brother under my name to raise. If I failed to protect my third brother this time, the Gu family might not be able to go back."

Wan Niang has a bad reputation, and besides, the Xing family has an aunt who has become a stepmother.Among them, Jia Lian had the most right to speak. Fortunately, when Mrs. Xing entered the door, Jia Lian was already an adult, and Mrs. Xing did not dare to do anything recklessly even if she wanted to cause harm.

Jia Lian sighed, "Uncle had invited Lizheng to lead people into the mountain, but unfortunately, he didn't find any clues. The world is unpredictable, so don't be too sad, or maybe your brother was destined to have this catastrophe."

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became much lower, but Xing Xiuyan suddenly noticed that Gu Erlang, who was opposite him, was pinching the edge of the table tightly with his fingers, trying to restrain himself.

What is he restraining?sad?

Xiuyan swept across Gu Erlang's body, and felt that this person's sadness was not from the heart, but exaggerated, as if... like an incompetent actor.But why is he acting?Who is Gu Erlang trying to deceive?
Seeing Xiuyan in a daze, Daiyu tugged on her cuff lightly: "Sister Xing, what are you thinking?"

Xiuyan chuckled suddenly: "I thought about what you said in the morning that lantern riddles are always made in Rongguo Mansion during festivals. I'm doing well, and I was thinking about what kind of riddles I should use to embarrass Sister Lin."

Daiyu pursed her lips and glanced at Gu Erlang with a smile, then looked at Sister Xing, who was obviously lying and absent-minded, "That's good, I thought of seven or eight, but no one played with me, and I was lazy. , if my sister came up with a riddle, it must be novel and interesting. It’s a pity that it’s not interesting for the two of us, why not”

Daiyu yelled "Hello", and Gu Erlang who was on the opposite side looked up in a panic, blushing: "What do you want me to tell you, Miss?"

"Can you make lantern riddles?" Daiyu Nong's soft voice sounded, and Gu Erlang lowered his head even more. He hurriedly said: "Although you can do a few, there is nothing new in the end, but you can tie lanterns in the bottom. Miss If you want any pattern, just tell me, and I will get it."

Daiyu was overjoyed, so she was about to speak, but Xiuyan held her back and said in a low voice, "He has only been raised for a few days, so let's not tire him out. If my sister likes it, I will give you my revolving lantern."

But Daiyu would be wrong, thinking that sister Xing was jealous!As everyone knows, it's just Xiuyan's vigilance at work, and it turned out to be very effective later on.
