Chapter 71 Father and Son
"Son, please be brave. The Chen family, like the Wang family, is a century-old family, and the Chen family has a deep foundation. If we can marry the Chen family, it will be of great benefit to our Wang family. The girl educated by the Chen family can be a good match for me."
The mother of the Wang family. But that girl from the Lin family has no father and no brothers and sisters. How can she convince everyone in the Wang family in the future?" Wang Chengren's eyes slightly avoided the anger in his father's eyes, but his tone was very firm.
Old Mrs. Wang was so angry that she turned over and stood up, pointed at Wang Chengren's head and cursed angrily: "You think Uncle Chengyi's Mansion is just a decoration? You don't know what kind of temper your aunt is? She taught that girl from the Lin family.
, she can be the mother of the Wang family no matter what! She doesn’t have much help behind her, but she has the ability, and she also has Uncle Chengyi behind her, which is the best for my Wang family. Lin Zhiyuan is honest and moderate in his work, Chongan
The Hou Mansion is not visible in the capital, but precisely because of this lack of visibility, the girl does not have to worry too much about the Lin family! She can only focus on planning for the Wang family! The Chen family is good! But which prince is the Chen family close to?
Don’t you know? What our Wang family wants is a clan mother who is dedicated to planning for her husband’s family! When you marry the daughter of the Chen family, do you want her to go to the Chen family or the Wang family? Do you want to watch Wu Lang gamble with the Wang family’s century-old foundation?
?" He continued to be scolded.
Wang Chengren shook his hand and asked, holding back the tightness in his chest: "Didn't my father even agree to the Lu family's marriage at first, but now he is afraid of the Chen family..."
"Can the Chen family be the same as the Lu family? Can Silang be the same as Wulang?" Mrs. Wang was so angry that she blew her beard and stared.
"Father is too cautious!" Wang Chengren said with a frown on his neck, also getting angry.
The father and son were both a little angry for a moment. Their eyes met, and their anger was surging.
The boy waiting outside hurriedly left and looked for Wang Shuo, and briefly explained the situation.
Wang Shuo smiled bitterly in his heart and hurried to Mrs. Wang's yard. When he got to the door, he saw two elders sitting opposite each other, but they both twisted their faces and said nothing. They were obviously angry.
"What a coincidence. I had something to talk to my grandfather and father about. I didn't expect that you two got together first, which saved me from running away again." Wang Shuo smiled and stepped into the door. He was silent towards the yard.
The two of them laughed.
Mrs. Wang snorted and asked Wang Shuo, "What happened?"
"Grandpa, don't worry, nothing happened. Chen Laoliu had to drag me out for a drink today. I thought it would be nice to get together for a while, but I didn't know that I would meet the third prince by chance! It was so easy for me to find him.
He found an excuse to hide back." Wang Shuo smiled easily. He stepped forward and beat Mrs. Wang's shoulder, and smiled at Wang Chengren again.
Wang Chengren's face was stiff. He glanced at Old Mrs. Wang and then at Wang Shuo. After a long time, he sighed and stood up to help Old Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang waved her hands angrily and strode into the house. Without looking back, she ordered the boy waiting outside the yard: "Bring back all the chairs and stools."
Seeing that his father was embarrassed, Wang Shuo quickly hinted to Wang Chengren and then followed Mrs. Wang into the house.
"You have grown so old in vain! You just stare at the thing in front of you! You are so short-sighted!" Mrs. Wang nodded at Wang Shuo and snorted angrily.
Wang Shuo smiled hurriedly and stepped forward to support Mrs. Wang, and said with a smile: "Father speaks frankly, and this is not the first time that grandpa knows that my father is your son anyway. There is nothing wrong with it. You should reprimand what you should! Look back, father."
Once I figured it out, I naturally came to apologize."
Mrs. Wang burst out laughing. She waved her hand towards Wang Shuo and said with a smile, "Forget it, I'm too old to care about that much. Your father doesn't agree with your marriage to that girl from the Lin family, so go and do it yourself.
Tell him."
Wang Shuo already understood in his heart. He blinked at Mrs. Wang and said with a smile: "Grandpa, do you think what I just said was in vain? You didn't see that my father's face didn't look good. Hey, I will persuade him in a moment.
Advise father to go."
Mrs. Wang was startled for a moment, then understood, she patted Wang Shuo on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You bastard!"
In the evening, Wang Shuo went to Wang Chengren's study. The father and son stayed in the room and talked for a long time.
The next day, Lin Wan slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up. As soon as he washed up and wanted to eat, the woman outside came to report that Wang Shuo was here. Lin Wan was still a little confused, and then she realized what she was doing. She hurriedly swallowed half a bowl of porridge.
He led the girl to the living room.
When Lin Wan entered the house, Mrs. Liu was talking to Wang Shuo with a smile on her face. When she saw Lin Wan coming, she hurriedly smiled and said, "I remembered that there was something else in the house. I heard Wulang's mother mention it yesterday, so I just wanted to let her know."
Take Wu Lang back, Sister Wan, please talk to your fifth brother first." After that, without waiting for Lin Wan's reaction, she walked out the door with a smile.
Wang Shuo's eyes lingered on Lin Rana for a moment, his eyes bright and warm, with a hint of joy. He hadn't seen her for a long time. The little girl had grown taller, her face had become thinner, and she looked better.
Wang Shuo's heart was filled with tenderness. He smiled softly at Lin Wan and said, "You were late yesterday, so I couldn't come here. I'm here to make up for the gift." After saying that, he took out a small square box from his sleeve and handed it over.
Lin Wan came forward.
Lin Wan was so shocked that she took a step back. She stared at the box for a moment, then looked up at Wang Shuo and said seriously: "Thank you, Brother Wang Wu, but it's not appropriate for me to accept this."
Wang Shuo was not annoyed, and the smile in his eyes deepened. He held the box with his fingers and turned it around in his hand. He turned around and put the box next to the pile of gift boxes in front of the table. He turned around and said to Lin Wanqing.
He smiled lightly. "These are ordinary objects. My mother asked me to bring them to my aunt."
Lin Wan frowned helplessly and shouted with some disapproval: "Brother Wang Wu..."
Wang Shuo looked at Lin Wan with a smile. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated a bit because of the words "Brother Wang". The tenderness spread from his chest to his fingertips. Wang Shuo stared at Lin Wan intently.
Wang Shuo suddenly stretched out his hand to pick up the broken hair around Lin Wan's ears, and brushed Lin Wan's cheek with his fingers. Seeing Lin Wan blushing fiercely, the smile in Wang Shuo's eyes became even brighter.
He quickly closed his hand, with a gentle smile in his voice: "After the palace examination in April, mother will come to propose marriage." Wang Shuo paused, suddenly lowered his head, moved closer to Lin Wan, and said softly,
"Awan, are you willing?
Lin Wan was so startled by Wang Shuo's sudden words that she stepped back. She looked over with wide eyes and felt a little panicked. She had a good impression of Wang Shuo, and it was precisely because of this good feeling that she was unwilling to marry him. Such a gentle and sunny person
As a young man, she would rather get along with him as a friend than to become a couple after becoming a couple because they couldn't get what they wanted.
But other than Wang Shuo, can she have a better choice now? What's more... Lu Junzhao's gloomy face flashed through Lin Wan's mind, and she sighed feebly. She wanted to avoid the Lu family, which was the best way.
Just get engaged as soon as possible! This will save that scumbag guy from coming back to trouble her again and ask her to marry him!
Lin Wan was feeling embarrassed when she suddenly heard Mr. Liu coughing outside the door, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Liu came in with a smile, took a box in her hand and handed it to Wang Shuo: "There are some medicinal prescriptions and spices for calming the mind and nourishing the qi. Wu Lang should take it back to your mother."
Wang Shuo hurriedly took it with both hands and thanked her. His eyes lingered on Lin Wan's face for a moment before he left and went out.
Mrs. Liu sent Wang Shuo away with a smile. She came back and stared at Lin Wan, smiling all the time. When she was about to speak, she caught a glimpse of a small wooden box with a lotus flower carved on it next to the various gift boxes that Wang Shou had just brought. She said "Eh".
, picked it up and opened it to take a look. At this sight, the smile on his face deepened a little deeper. He pulled Lin Wan over, pointed at the small and exquisite bead flowers in the box and said with a smile: "I didn't see it just now. It was Wu Lang who placed it there."
Here? The color is just right for you, and this kid is really thoughtful."
Lin Wan stamped her feet in embarrassment and muttered: "How can you give a girl something so casually? You can't give it to each other privately..." Before she could say anything, Lin Wan suddenly thought of the two jade pendants she had collected, and for a moment
He pinched his fingers angrily and stopped talking.
Mrs. Liu burst out laughing, knocked on Lin Wan's forehead and scolded: "You know how to talk nonsense! Why is it so serious? Wulang was given to me, and my mother gave it to you. This is
It's such a natural thing! If Wu Lang didn't have this thought at such a young age, his mother would be confused!" After Mrs. Liu said this, she gently hugged Lin Wan and sighed, "It was obvious when Wu Lang first entered the house.
He said in vain that he would come to propose marriage after the imperial examination. My mother would be relieved if Wu Lang had such thoughts for you. Hey, last time Master Jiwu said that it was not appropriate for you to arrange your marriage early, but now that you are already in time, you don’t want to
Do you know whether it can be determined..."
Lin Wan felt warm in her heart as she listened to Mrs. Liu's words. She gently held Mrs. Liu's hand and her thoughts dispersed.
She is a stranger to this world, but in this world she has a mother, a grandmother, and friends who treat her sincerely. She can't ask for more. She has already thought about her marriage. As long as she can calmly
Just live her own life. She doesn't care whether her future husband is taking concubines or having intercourse, as long as she doesn't see them, she can send them far away from her yard and don't think about it.
——Lin Wan felt a sense of sourness in her heart. She tried to persuade herself countless times, but now that she thought about it, her heart was still filled with panic. She had to be virtuous and generous, and she had to learn to look at her own face calmly like all the women in this world.
Her husband is in love with someone else. In this case, she would have just chosen someone who she would not be emotionally involved with from the very beginning!
But Wang Shuo... Lin Wan looked at the pearl flowers lying in the box, Wang Shuo's soft whisper echoed in her ears, and for a moment she thought of the centuries-old foundation of the Wang family, and her heart was gradually buried in sorrow.
Marrying Wang Shuo means that she has to put away all her petty thoughts, pretend to be calm and generous all her life, and have to constantly plan for him and the Wang family - whether she wants it or not! Wang Shuo is the future patriarch of the Wang family.
In the eyes of a qualified patriarch, family is always more important than his wife. He was taught by Mrs. Wang step by step. Now that he is young, he can be affectionate towards her, but what about a few years later? He will grow up, whether outside or in the Wang family.
, will push him to grow...
Lin Wan felt bitter in her heart. She still hasn't learned the duty of a woman in this world. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
