Chapter 26: Letter from the Guan government urging the marriage period 1
After seeing her mother, Mrs. Xian only asked about her eldest daughter's situation at Guan's house, and didn't even notice that her younger daughter had changed her clothes. Of course, she didn't care what happened to her daughter, as long as Zi Ai didn't say that Zi Jian was not good.
She didn't bother to ask about her little daughter.
Xian Ziqian also got the opportunity to go back to her room early to wash up and rest. She was lying on the bed but couldn't fall asleep. She tossed and turned. When she closed her eyes, all she could see was Xuan Yi and her sister together.
For three days in a row, nothing happened. Xian Ziqian finally put her mind back. Her mother was in a good mood and was busy preparing for her sister's dowry. The Xian family provided clothes for the royal family, so naturally they would not treat their daughter's dowry poorly. Mrs. Xian went there in person.
The choice of patterns and fabrics in the shop is partly to prepare a dowry for the daughter, and partly to supervise her husband.
Although her husband didn't interfere with what happened last time, he also didn't visit her who had been lying in bed. She guessed that her husband was still a little angry, thinking that as long as she appeared in the shop more often, her husband would not be able to interact with that hateful Wanqing every day.
Women stay together.
It was rare that Xian Boteng returned home early from the shop early today, and Mrs.
Behind, facing a table of sumptuous tea dishes, everyone had polite smiles on their faces. Even Mrs. Xian didn't care about the appearance of Wan Qing.
"Today, a letter was sent from Guan Mansion to discuss the marriage between Yu Peng and Zi Ai." Xian Boteng said slowly while drinking, "It is too late to keep my daughter when she is older. Since the Guan family wants to get their two children married as soon as possible,
I think I should listen to the Guan family on this matter, so that Zi Ai can help the Guan family as soon as possible."
Xian Ziai's face changed slightly, and her hand holding the chopsticks paused.
"However, there is something in the letter that I don't quite understand." Xian Boteng hesitated and put down the wine glass in his hand, "I don't know if there are differences between the Guan family and the Xuan family in the officialdom. I have to find someone to inquire about it.
These two families are important ministers in the court and have won the trust of the emperor. We, the Xian family, cannot afford to offend anyone."
Mrs. Xian was startled and asked in confusion: "The Guan family and the Xuan family? Not only do they always have a good relationship, but they are also family friends. I heard that the Guan family brothers and the Xuan family's son Xuan Yi have always had a very good relationship, and they often appear together.
In front of everyone. What, what did the in-laws say in the letter?"
Xian Boteng pondered for a while and then said: "The letter said that our Xian family should not get too close to the Xuan family's son Xuan Yi. I really don't understand the meaning of this sentence. I can't talk to the Xuan family's son Xuan Yi at all.
, I don’t usually see you. By the way, Qingqing, do you know this Mr. Xuan Yixuan?”
Wan Qing glanced at Xian Zi Ai lightly, and when she was about to speak, she suddenly found that Xian Zi Ai was looking at Xian Zi Ai with a worried look on her face, with a vague panic in her eyes, as if she knew something but couldn't tell. Wan Qing was slightly startled.
, frowning slightly, does this girl who lives at home know something? "I'm not too familiar, but he has heard of my concubine playing the piano. The Xuan family is a popular person in the eyes of the emperor, and Xuan Yi is the eldest son of the Xuan family.
, having both civil and military skills is what binds the hearts of countless women in the capital. The Guan family may be worried about something by saying this."
