Chapter 875 Vomiting blood

Qin Jian expected to get definite news from the Xu family. However, the Xu family was still not sure of their decision, so how could they give a clear answer?

As soon as Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law returned home, they told everyone in the family that Mrs. Cai San was interested in Xu Xiu and intended to ration Cai Shiqi. There was no way, this matter had already been reported in the Cheng'enhou Mansion.

If it is exposed, the news will be spread back to the Xu family sooner or later. At least the Xu family will pay attention to the answers to the Xu parents' room. There is no use in escaping. Of course, Mrs. Xu also apologized in front of her family. For her accidentally leaking the news,

A mistake that made things worse.

Mrs. Xu was still in the hospital bed. When she heard the news, she almost vomited blood on the spot.

But she didn't vomit blood, which meant that her physical condition could still hold on, and she had the energy to curse others. She rejected the frivolous punishment of her sister-in-law, Mrs. Xu Er, to her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Xu, and insisted on driving people to kneel in the ancestral hall.

She also scolded her sister-in-law. In her opinion, if Mrs. Xu had strict enough control over her daughter-in-law, such a mistake would never have happened! Just like her own daughter-in-law, Mrs. Xu, she would not dare to do it in front of her.

Talk casually in front of outsiders.

Grandma Xu, who had actually done a lot of tricks in private, held her breath and carefully kept silent, pretending that she was really the virtuous and gentle daughter-in-law her mother-in-law said she was.

Regarding Cai Shiqi's marriage, except for Mrs. Xu's insistence on objecting, everyone in the Xu family felt that it was inappropriate at first, but then they felt that it was not impossible to consider it. Gradually, with Mrs. Xu's persuasion, it was quite possible.

Few people began to think that this might not be a good marriage.

Although Cai Shiqi is not the son or nephew of the Marquis of Yunyang, he can still be regarded as an adopted son. He was raised in the Marquis of Yunyang's Mansion. When Xu Xiu marries him, it is equivalent to marrying into the Marquis of Yunyang's Mansion. As long as he can

If the Marquis of Yunyang and his wife are satisfied, they will naturally not be stingy in giving a little care to the natal family of their well-behaved and filial nephew-in-law. Marquis Yunyang is a powerful person in the dynasty, and the care he can provide to the Xu family is immediate and effective.

In comparison, the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion had to go through the Queen Mother, the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, or the third-room Yongjia Marquis Qin Bai before it could accomplish anything, and the efficiency was much lower. What's more, although Cheng'en is now

The Hou Mansion is headed by my aunt, the Xu family, but in the past few years, the Cheng'en Hou Mansion has been too busy taking care of itself and has relied on the Yongjia Hou Mansion for help. It cannot provide any help to the Xu family. Otherwise, how could the Xu family decline?

A closer relationship with the Marquis of Cheng'en can only stabilize the in-law relationship between the Xu and Qin families. Keeping the Qin family as an ally and backer will not alienate the Xu family, and will not bring any additional benefits.

Mr. Xu is already a little moved. He is the person with the highest official position in the Xu family, and he can most clearly feel the bottleneck of his career. His health is not very good. If he can no longer move up, he will probably have to

He became an official in the third rank, which is not as good as his late father's achievements during his lifetime! If his late father Quanxia found out, he would be very disappointed. And he himself would be even more disappointed. He originally thought that he would not be as stained as his late father.

And with the support of my sister who married my uncle, I can go further than my late father, but I didn't expect it to be worse than his late father. Qin Youzhen, the second concubine of the Qin family who was raised by her sister Xu, and her husband Lu Pu are not here yet.

At the age of forty, he has already achieved the rank of third rank. How is he worse than Lupu? Why is this result? If marrying with the Cai family can push his official position up, even if it can only push him up one rank,

He was completely satisfied.

Originally, Mr. Xu had hoped that the excellence of his eldest grandson would attract the attention of the eldest daughter of Marquis Yunyang. But now the Cai family proposed to marry Xu Xiu for their nephew, without even mentioning Xu Zheng. It can be seen that Xu

An elegant scholar like Zheng is not to the liking of the Yunyang Marquis. Since this marriage can no longer be expected, it is the same for Xu Xiu to marry into the Cai family. Losing something in the east and gaining something in the future is not necessarily a good thing.

Of course, it would be great if the Yunyang Marquis Mansion could promote more cousins ​​​​in the future. Yunyang Marquis should think highly of Cai Shiqi, right? Mr. Xu wants more accurate information before he can make up his mind.

Uncle Xu has already thought so, and his son Uncle Xu and the latter's wife, Grandma Xu, have no idea. Grandma Xu may even feel aggrieved for her daughter, thinking that her daughter is not marrying into the Chengen Marquis Mansion to make a future.

Being the mistress of the house is really too incompetent. But considering that the Yunyanghou Mansion is more powerful than the Chengenhou Mansion, Cai Shiqi is already a small flag at the age of sixteen. She only needs more care from the Yunyang Marquis. It will not take a few years.

He will be a high-ranking military officer. His official career may be smoother than that of Qin Jian, who has only been awarded the title of scholar and has struggled for countless years on the imperial examination road. His daughter may be appointed earlier than originally planned, which can be regarded as an unexpected blessing.

Already.

Grandma Xu thought of her husband's situation, and felt that it would be a good marriage for her daughter to marry Cai Shiqi. Especially because of her mother-in-law, the Xu family and Qin Jian's mother Yao were at loggerheads. Even if her daughter really married,

If you marry Qin Jian, you will inevitably face difficulties from your mother-in-law Yao. Even if your aunt Xu wants to protect you, how many years can you protect her? It's better to marry someone else.

It's a pity that Cai Shiqi's background is relatively low. It would be great if he were the nephew of Marquis Yunyang. In other words, why aren't the Cai family proposing marriage for Marquis Yunyang's son or nephew? Xu Da

Grandma did not dare to expect her daughter to marry Crown Prince Cai, but Prince Cai also had a brother who was a compatriot, and Marquis Yunyang also had a nephew, so Xu Xiu would be a good match, right?

Mrs. Xu Er could only laugh dryly at this: "Second Young Master Cai is still only thirteen years old, and Sister Xiu is already sixteen. Although she is a junior girl and has a gold brick, the Cai family is not in a hurry to marry their Second Young Master.

As for the nephews of Marquis Yunyang, we only met Cai Shijiu. He is fifteen this year, and I heard that he has not been engaged. Mrs. Cai San did not mention him, and I don’t know what they think. But I

I feel that with the power of the Yunyang Marquis Mansion, we may not be able to be picky."

Grandma Xu closed her mouth angrily.

Looking at everyone's expressions, Mrs. Xu Er knew that they were already inclined to accept the marriage between Xu Xiu and Cai Shiqi, and she couldn't help but feel a little anxious. Although she persuaded them to agree, she thought about the time she and her daughter-in-law had

I don’t know if speaking ill of the eldest son in front of Mrs. Cai San will affect the Yunyang Hou Mansion’s perception of Xu Xiu. Mrs. Cai San’s expression at the time was not very good. If this matter was leaked, her situation would be dire.

Even more embarrassing.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xu asked Grandma Xu: "How is your mother-in-law now? Is she still making a strong opposition?"

Grandma Xu sighed: "Do you need to say more? She still said the same words, and now she is even more angry than before."

Mrs. Xu is naturally very angry. She feels that no one else in the family is reliable, and her husband, Mr. Xu, is even more suspected of being a docile and fence-sitting faction: "You all agreed to me at the beginning and let Brother Zheng marry Sister Shan.

Son, you are well said. As soon as your aunt said that there was a chance to make friends with the Yunyang Marquis Mansion, and Yunyang Marquis’ eldest daughter had not yet been married, you were all moved. Brother Zheng and Sister Shan had already known each other for a long time.

Put aside the agreed engagement and let Brother Zheng flatter the eldest daughter of the Yunyang Marquis Mansion! You say this will be good for Brother Zheng’s future. I don’t see a military commander or a noble person who can do anything to Brother Zheng.

Brother, what are the benefits of studying for the imperial examination, but you all said in unison, so I gave in. Now you tell me that the Yunyang Marquis Mansion did not like Brother Zheng, but liked Sister Xiu, but they only planned to ration their family.

A clan nephew! An orphan whose father was just a junior military attache who died early, but whose mother had no shame and unruly rules and remarried someone else! Just because that Cai Shiqi’s surname is Cai?! My sister Xiu is both talented and beautiful, and well-educated.

Well, she is still the eldest daughter, even if she is married to the son of Marquis Yunyang, she is qualified, why should she suffer such injustice?!"

Mr. Xu secretly wiped his sweat and said with a dry smile: "Madam, don't be angry. If Brother Zheng's marriage to Miss Cai doesn't work out, he can naturally continue to marry your grand-nephew. No one can marry Sister Xiu."

Same? As long as he comes from a good family. Although Cai Shiqi is only the nephew of Marquis Yunyang, he is also a talented man. The young man is very handsome and has been educated for several years. Although he is a military attache, he has a bright future.

Sister Xiu will be blessed if she marries him."

Mrs. Xu sneered: "It sounds nice, but what if there is no future blessing? Can we still regret it at that time?! Our Xu family has already done something wrong once, but we can no longer do the business of betraying trust and marrying another person.

!”

Master Xu's face turned darker: "Madam!"

Mrs. Xu clutched her chest tightly, feeling her blood boiling. She finally calmed down a little, and then said coldly: "You guys agreed at the beginning that Sister Xiu will marry Brother Jian who lives in Qin's family room.

The proposed marriage is considered to be in line with my aunt's wishes. I thought that as long as you don't take advantage of brother Zheng's idea, it won't matter if you fulfill my aunt's wish. Now, you have repented cleanly and changed your mind and said that you want to marry sister Xiu.

Married to the Yunyang Marquis Mansion. What about the Qin family? How do you plan to explain it to your aunt? Don’t come up with my brother Zheng’s idea again. His marriage to Sister Shan has already been decided.

I have already written letters to my brother-in-law, and they are clearly written in black and white. Don’t think about changing them! In our Lu family, the most important thing is integrity, but unlike your Xu family, what we have said can still go uncounted!"

Mr. Xu's face turned ugly again. After a while, he said: "I did originally think about letting brother Zheng marry Jinhua, and your natal grand-nephew daughter Shan Jie'er will be married to brother Rong instead."

The elder brother is the younger brother, and his wife cannot have a higher background than the eldest sister-in-law, lest there be no peace in the family in the future. But if according to what the wife said, she is not willing to let Brother Zheng marry Jinhua in any case, then the only choice is to let him marry Jinhua instead.

Brother Rong is here. He is also a direct descendant, and he and his childhood sweetheart Jinhua have always gotten along well. It’s just that Sister Shan’s background will not be as good as Jinhua in the future. If you have any complaints, madam, don’t regret it."

Mrs. Xu laughed angrily: "Brother Rong? I can tell you what you said! He can't study well and does nothing all day long. He only knows how to fool around in the inner curtain. If he were a few years older, he might not be such a shameless romantic seed.

Well. How could Qin’s family be willing to marry his daughter to him? Even if the aunt is shameless and insists on favoring her parents’ family, Yao’s shrew will fight you to the death! What’s more, how can Brother Rong compare with Brother Zheng?

Brother Zheng has you as his grandfather and me as his grandmother, so what does Brother Rong have? It’s not like the daughter of the Qin family can’t get married, so why do you want to do this to yourself?!"

Mr. Xu originally wanted to persuade his wife, but now he became more and more angry and his patience disappeared. He said with a cold face: "If it weren't for my wife's nonsense and disregard of relatives, how could our family be where we are today?

What's the situation? You caused chaos between the two families, everything went wrong in the promised marriage, and now you are still making sarcastic remarks. Do you take the Xu family seriously? Since you look down on the Xu family, why did you marry into the Xu family that day? You might as well go back.

Forget it, you Lu family! Anyway, you can only say good things about the Lu family!"

He coldly tossed his sleeves and walked away. Mrs. Xu was so angry that her eyes widened and she stared at his back. She could no longer hold back and spit out a mouthful of blood.
