Chapter 138 Seeing off guests!
The Liu family is the largest family near Qingyuan Town. Not only does the Liu family think that the Liu family is a wealthy gentry, but also because the eldest son of Yuan Liu has won the imperial examination. Although he has never had any higher achievements after winning the imperial examination,
The Liu family is also a well-known and noble family in this area. In the eyes of the villagers, the Juren Master is a person who is looked up to.
Liu Yuanwai is sixty-one this year, and his eldest son is in his early forties. However, Liu Yuanwai's wife is not yet forty years old, because this wife was Liu Yuanwai's second wife to fill in the house.
Mrs. Liu's maiden name is Zhang. As soon as Mrs. Liu Zhang entered the Cen family's house, she raised her chin slightly, held her head high, and looked at the house with her eyes higher than her head. From the corner of her eye, she looked around the house inside and out.
.
Cen Xiyan is a person who is used to enjoying things. He has spare money in his hands and is not willing to treat himself badly in terms of living conditions. Therefore, although the decoration of this house is not luxurious, it is very elegant and interesting, and every detail is perfect.
Reflecting warmth and comfort.
Mrs. Liu Zhang looked critically for two and a half times, but couldn't find anything wrong. In the end, she just curled her lips. It was just a second-level house, not half as big as theirs. It seemed like it was just a small door.
Just a small family home.
Sitting down in the front hall and sipping tea leisurely, Ms. Liu Zhang looked at the furnishings in the hall again. She didn't see any particularly expensive calligraphy, paintings or ornaments. Her face unconsciously showed a bit of pride.
.
Jingshuang waited on the side, calmly taking in Mrs. Liu and Zhang's expression in her eyes, and couldn't help but frown slightly, wondering why Mrs. Liu, who usually had little contact with her, came to visit suddenly today, and what was she doing?
It was not long before Cen Xiyan walked in from the door of the hall.
Mrs. Liu Zhang reluctantly stood up. Cen Xiyan smiled and greeted her, then invited her to sit down.
Yingxue followed Cen Xiyan to the front hall. She glanced at Jingshuang inquiringly, meaning to ask about the purpose of Mrs. Liu's visit. Jingshuang shook her head slightly, saying that she didn't understand what Mrs. Liu and Zhang were here.
The two girls stood on both sides to wait on her, watching the changes.
Entering the flower hall from Cen Xiyan, Liu Zhang's eyes were undisguised. He looked her up and down and saw that she was only fourteen or fifteen years old. Her figure and appearance were indeed a good talent! And she had such a perfect body.
The style was quite impressive, and she looked even more outstanding than her pampered little daughter. I couldn't tell what it was like to be a guest.
"Mrs. Liu is here today, but what's the matter?" Looking at Mrs. Liu's expression and eyes, it was clear that this was not a good person. Cen Xiyan was too lazy to exchange casual greetings with her parents and immediately asked straight to the point.
Mrs. Liu Zhang was a little dissatisfied with Cen Xiyan's directness, but she just frowned slightly and did not get angry, nor did she immediately answer Cen Xiyan's question. Instead, she quickly raised her eyebrows and tried to be kind and approachable.
He reached out and took one of Cen Xiyan's hands intimately, and said with a smile: "I have heard a long time ago that there is a great beauty in our Qingyuan town. I can see it today. Look, she has this appearance.
, even I couldn’t take my eyes away from it, these little hands are as tender as onions, they are so lovely..."
Cen Xiyan was so praised by Mrs. Liu Zhang that he got goosebumps. The smile on his face was a little forced, and he said politely: "Mrs. Liu is so complimentary..."
Mrs. Liu Zhang seemed not to notice the embarrassment on Cen Xiyan's face, and asked again: "Miss Cen looks young, will she be able to have haircuts this year?"
Hearing Liu Zhang's question, Cen Xiyan felt a little strange in his heart, but he still replied patiently, "Soon." He didn't say how long it would take to get the hairpin, but it was a bit perfunctory.
Mrs. Liu Zhang's eyes flashed, is it soon? That's good, anyway, she didn't want to know the specific time for her haircut, so she changed the subject and said: "Is Miss Cen the only one who lives in this Cen Mansion? Although
This house is not big, but it is very inconvenient for a girl to live alone..."
"My family is looking for work in other places. I am used to living alone, so I don't find it inconvenient." While Cen Xiyan replied to Liu Zhang's words, he was also observing Liu Zhang's expression, and he felt more and more that this woman was
The question is a little weird.
When Mrs. Liu Zhang heard this, her eyes flashed again. It turned out that there were others in the Cen family. She thought that there was only one little girl left in the Cen family and there was no one else. However, leaving a little girl in Qingyuan
I have lived alone in Zhen for more than ten years. I guess this Miss Cen is also unpopular, right?
"If you have anything to do with Mrs. Liu, you might as well tell her directly." Cen Xiyan urged Mr. Liu Zhang for the second time and quickly got to the point.
"Cough!" Mrs. Liu Zhang covered her mouth with a handkerchief, coughed, and said: "Ordinarily, I should discuss this matter with your elders, but now, your elders are not at home, so I will talk to you
Tell me something, you are not young anymore, you can actually make up your own mind about some things, after all, some good opportunities don’t come around very often."
Cen Xiyan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but did not answer Mrs. Liu's words, just waiting for her to continue.
"Have you ever heard of the Sun family in Liuzhou? It is a high-ranking family in Liuzhou! The second master of the Sun family is now a member of the fifth rank among the household ministers! And the head of the Sun family in Liuzhou is
Sun Qi, the eldest son of the Sun family, is the youngest son of the eldest son of the Sun family. His family background, appearance, character, and temperament are all top-notch, and he is absolutely excellent.
The choice of son-in-law..."
"Mrs. Liu!" After hearing these words, Cen Xiyan couldn't understand the purpose of Mrs. Liu Zhang's visit. Daqing'er, this aunt is here to act as a matchmaker for her! Cen Xiyan couldn't laugh or cry, and was too lazy to listen any more.
He immediately raised his hand and interrupted Liu Zhang's words rudely. He stood up, his pretty face sank slightly, and said to see the guest off, "I'm sorry, I'm a little tired. Mrs. Liu, please come back first."
Mrs. Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes widened in disbelief, "Hey, girl, you are not as aggressive as you are, right? Even if you come from a small family, you shouldn't even know some etiquette, right?"
"Etiquette?" Cen Xiyan sneered, "Mrs. Liu, are you talking to me about etiquette? If you are someone who understands etiquette, are you supposed to tell a little girl like me these nonsense words?"
Mrs. Liu Zhang also understood in her heart that there was absolutely no reason to talk about the marriage to the girl in person, and her face was a little uncomfortable, but she still reasoned out the truth and said: "This is not... your family
The adults are not here! If your adults are here, how can I say this to you? Moreover, I am also doing it for your own good. Good conditions like the Liu family are hard to find even with a lantern. If you miss this opportunity
, where can I find such a good family in the future? Although the fifth young master of the Sun family has married the wife, in this big family, Mrs. Ru has always been the most favored. Just because of your appearance, Miss Cen, you will not marry me.
In the past, the fifth young master couldn't treat you like jewels? From now on, it is better to live a life of glory and wealth than to marry into a small family and endure hardships in the future..."
