Chapter 31 My brother has a woman he likes(1/2)
Early the next morning, the people of Lin'an blocked in front of the city gate for the first time, pushing each other and stretching their necks to wait for General Mu to return to the court.
The private rooms in the restaurants and tea shops were full, and people opened their windows and looked down.
The vendors on the street did not care about their business and chatted one after another.
"General Mu has been stationed at the border fortress for five years."
"No, I heard that this time there was a great victory in the battle of Tongshui at the frontier fortress. General Mu directly took the head of the Japanese crown prince. The emperor was overjoyed and specially invited him back to reward him."
Someone sighed and said: "If you ask me, the wife of the General's Mansion is really pitiful. Her husband and son are not around, and she has to worry every day. Fortunately, she has a daughter by her side. But Miss Namu is also really naughty."
"This time when General Mu comes back, the general's wife intends to select a girl of the right age. She just hopes to take advantage of this time to get married."
"I heard that the jewelry in Jin Yutang and the clothes in the Embroidery Pavilion shop have been selling very fast in recent days. The ladies from the official family are waiting to be chosen to shine on the Flower Festival."
The aunt with a mean look suddenly interjected: "My daughter is plump and beautiful and has a good childbirth. It's a pity that General Mu doesn't have this blessing."
The whole place was silent.
Someone burst out laughing and spoke provocatively: "Come on, your daughter is fat. She has the same virtues as my pigs. She even despises the lame Ermazi. You are still thinking about General Mu. Damn you."
The aunt was not happy when she heard this. She rolled up her sleeves.
"But my daughter is easy to give birth to! The frontier sword has no eyes. If something happens, at least the Mu family will still have heirs."
As soon as she said this, a weight fell on her shoulders.
Mu Jiu happily waited for her father and brother to come back, but she didn't want to hear such a sentence. She wanted to sew the old man's mouth shut.
"Who are you cursing? Are you tired of living?"
She wanted to laugh for the first time.
"You are like this, how dare you think of someone from the general's palace? You have lived for a long time, do you want to die?"
She is wearing a clean and neat skirt, but judging from the material, she is also very famous.
The aunt was suddenly frightened.
"Me me me."
"I'm going to die, why don't I get out? If I meet you again and you say something rude, I'll chop off your head."
Mu Jiu was furious.
Her brother was very good, but not everyone could be a good match for him.
She felt that the cousin from the Yong'an Marquis Mansion was a very good candidate.
She even sent someone to inquire about it.
That girl is not married.
As long as the brother nods and mentions this matter in front of the mother, the marriage will be more than half completed.
Just as she was thinking about it, she saw an acquaintance with her sharp eyes.
Yi Lin was preparing to enter the palace, but he never expected to meet Sheng Qinan who was riding back to Sheng's home.
"Where is Gu Huaizhi?"
"Back to the Duke's mansion."
Yi Lin held two gold ingots in his hand: "Okay, I'll go find him and enter the palace together."
Sheng Qinan tightened his grip on the reins and smiled when he heard these words: "He is busy supervising the kitchen to fry fish for Xiao Hui. You are rushing to join in the fun."
Yi Lin:???
"You two are amazing brothers. One treats dogs as his treasure, and the other wants to become a monk every day."
Sheng Qinan looked down at him and the two brilliant ingots.
"You sound like a serious person. Go away and don't block the road."
Yi Lin laughed angrily. Just as he was about to fight, someone came towards him.
It's Mu Jiu.
"Yi Lin, have you delivered my letter?"
"forget."
"It's rare for me to fall in love with a sister-in-law. You forgot such an important thing."
Yi Lin gossip: "Which family is the girl from?"
"The cousin of the Marquis of Yong'an."
Sheng Qinan, who was rushing back home:!!!
Someone is trying to steal his sister-in-law:!!!
He will never allow it!!!
He glanced at Mu Jiu, then went back home to pick up the Sheng family.
Mrs. Sheng felt a headache when she saw her son coming in from the yard.
"Are you still willing to come back?"
Sheng Qinan put the Buddhist beads on his wrist and stepped forward to say hello.
"This is my son's home, why not go back?"
"Really? I thought your home was at Fanshan Temple."
Sheng Qinan choked.
Mrs. Sheng glanced at her unsatisfied son: "If Brother Huai hadn't stopped you this time, you would have planned to stay in Fanshan Temple for a long time."
Speaking of this, Sheng Qinan felt aggrieved.
"My brother framed me."
Mrs. Sheng put down the tea cup heavily.
"You are still quibbling! I watched Brother Huai grow up and he has a very good character. Do you think he is you?"
He is pretending!!!
No matter what she said, her mother would not believe it. Sheng Qinan was like a wilted eggplant: "Brother asked me to take you to the Duke's Mansion to stay for a while."
The gloom on Mr. Sheng's face faded away, and he smiled broadly: "He is a filial man."
Sheng Qinan was stimulated.
He kept silent, prepared the carriage, and sent the people to the Duke's mansion.
The relationship between Sheng Wan and Sheng's sister-in-law is very good.
After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, they started picking at the portraits prepared by Sheng Wan.
Sheng Wan: "This girl is pretty good. I heard she is good at cooking."
Mrs. Sheng looked over and said, "No, he's not very good-looking."
As she said that, she picked out one: "How about this?"
Sheng Wan shook his head: "This girl is fierce and unruly."
Mrs. Sheng glanced at the picture album, then at the wilting Sheng Qinan, and smiled: "What a match for Qin Nan! My son will find a powerful Zhi Zhi instead."
Sheng Qinan shivered with fright. In order to prevent this disaster from happening, he quickly changed the subject.
"I forgot to mention, brother has a girl he likes."
Sheng Wan:!!!Surprise!
Sheng:!!!
Sheng Qinan was very satisfied with their response!
As long as Sheng Juan moves quickly enough, what's the matter with the general's wife?
Thinking of Mu Jiu, he felt angry.
Can my sister-in-law just yell randomly?
First come, first served, do you understand?
He looked at the dull two people, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't help but add fuel to the fire.
"That girl is very popular. My brother eagerly gave her the glazed lamp that the emperor rewarded, but he kept it secret. He refused to admit that he was attracted to the girl. If he continues to be stubborn, his sister-in-law might be betrothed to someone else."
Sheng Wan:!!!Are you sure it was her son who gave the girl the glazed lamp?
Sheng:!!!
