Sheng Hong, a seemingly loyal guy, seemed to be angry and punished Ming Lan. In fact, he just fell in love with Wang Yue.
Sheng Hong knew Wang Yue's character and would not let a woman bear the burden of rumors. He wanted to force Wang Yue to take responsibility for this matter, and he arranged a good marriage for Minglan in disguise. It was rare for him to have a fatherly heart.
Wang Anshi saw the change in Wang Yue's expression and said with a smile, "It seems that you have figured it out now, and it is not too late. This matter should be a lesson to you. Don't underestimate anyone in the future. Although Sheng Hong looks at
It’s mediocre, but it’s actually quite thoughtful.”
Wang Yue looked at Wang Anshi who was gloating about his misfortune and was a little speechless. He said depressedly, "You just watched me fall into a trap and didn't give you a warning?"
Wang Anshi stroked his beard and said very calmly, "It's not a bad thing to gain wisdom by taking a bite. Your father entrusted me to want you to get married as soon as possible so that they can have grandchildren early. I can consider it completed."
You have accomplished your mission and got a beautiful girl for free, what else are you thinking about? Although the sixth girl of the Sheng family is a lady, she was raised by her grandmother. Her grandmother was the legitimate daughter of Yongyi Marquis, who was famous all over Kyoto and attracted countless young talents.
Jundu is lovesick, and the granddaughter she brought out personally will definitely be good."
Wang Yue looked at the old fox reminiscing about the past and was speechless. It seemed that everything had not escaped his notice, and he was still a little young.
So, Wang Yue put aside the little trouble of being plotted and said in a gossipy tone, "Uncle, were you also one of these suitors back then?"
Wang Anshi's hands shook, and a few strands of his beard fell out. He rolled his eyes at Wang Yue, sighed and said, "I was still a child back then, and I met your aunt as a teenager, so I have other thoughts. Sheng family people
He has excellent talent and learning, but he has poor vision, and in the end he was entrusted to a wrong person."
…
Sometimes things just happen by coincidence. That day at the polo match, Qi Heng saw that Wang Yue and Ming Lan had an unusual tacit understanding of each other and acted a little intimately, so he felt there was some danger.
Qi Heng felt that he could not wait any longer. If he waited any longer, Wang Yue might make a move first, and then he could only stare.
Therefore, Qi Heng took advantage of his mother's birthday and spent a lot of time to please her mother. He wanted to take advantage of his mother's happiness to propose that he wanted to marry Minglan.
After hearing Qi Heng's words, Qi Heng's mother felt that her son did not sincerely celebrate her birthday, but wanted to ask her to do something, so he was just trying to please her.
After Qi Heng's explanation, his mother was no longer angry. However, Qi Heng's mother still disagreed with his desire to marry Minglan.
In the eyes of the proud and arrogant mother Qi, Minglan was just a concubine, which was a bit too low for the standards of their Duke's palace.
The Duke of Guo saw that in the good days, the mother and son were so unhappy, so he quickly said, "She is just a concubine. It is not a big deal to let Heng'er come in as a side house."
After hearing his father's words, Qi Heng was so frightened that he quickly rejected his father's proposal. He said with a sneer, "I want to be like my father. I only want to marry Minglan and don't want to marry another person."
When Qi's mother saw that her son had made up her mind, she immediately changed her mind. She wanted to take advantage of the time when the Sheng family and Hai Shi were getting married to go to the Sheng family to stop her son's thoughts.
It's just that Qi's mother thought very well, but she didn't want to be slapped in the face. The family rushed to the Sheng family and received a grand welcome from the Sheng family. Even the old lady came forward to receive Qi's mother.
After the guest of honor sat down in the main hall, and after chatting for a while, Qi’s mother said with a smile, “In terms of diligence, that bastard in my family is the first, but he is just stupid, unlike your family, who not only has two sons,
There are also these girls, all of them are rich and handsome, and I heard that the eldest girl who married into Uncle Zhongqin's house is also pregnant."
After hearing this, Mrs. Shanda smiled and said, "Yes, that's why I didn't ask her to come. It's better to raise the baby seriously in the house..."
Before the eldest lady finished speaking, Mrs. Sheng interrupted her and said with a smile, "Although we are blessed to have more children, we are not a farmer's family that relies on men to work and fight. The so-called children are better than many."
, for someone as ambitious as your young father-in-law, one is enough."
Princess Pingning, Qi Heng's mother, said with a smile, "The old lady really said it well. My Heng'er is a bit stupid, but he is really valuable. If he is like Erlang of the Gu family, he insists on bringing some things to the family, which is not worth it.
If you become a woman, I will be pissed to death."
It's just that Princess Pingning's words made the female relatives of the Sheng Mansion not sure how to respond. After all, the Gu family was not someone the Sheng family could offend.
However, Princess Pingning didn't seem to want anyone to answer the question. After she finished speaking, she said to the female historian next to her, "Go and call Heng'er."
Qi Heng thought that his mother wanted to get married. After he came in happily, he thought that the matter with Minglan was settled, so he happily bowed to everyone.
Princess Pingning saw her son staring at the girl from the Sheng family with a smile on her face, so she smiled and said, "I think it's boring to have a son. There is no one to watch when I pick out rouge and gouache on weekdays. I hate myself for not giving birth to a girl."
.”
Qi Heng, who was originally smiling, felt his heart skip a beat when he heard his mother calling him. He still smiled and asked, "Mom, what do you want to say?"
Princess Pingning ignored Qi Heng, who had changed his expression, and said with a smile, "Don't you usually complain that others have younger sisters, but you don't? Why don't you regard these younger sisters from the Sheng family as your biological sisters?"
After hearing what Princess Pingning said, the expressions of everyone present changed. They were all gangsters, and everyone knew what was going on.
Qi Heng's expression couldn't be maintained any longer, and he collapsed in an instant. He seemed to be confirming with his mother, but in fact he was pleading, "Dear biological sister? What kind of biological sister?"
The eldest lady reacted quickly this time. She said with a sneer, "I'm afraid you are drunk. How can these little girls in our family be the younger father-in-law's sisters?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Mo Lan was originally obsessed with Qi Heng, how could he be willing to be his sister, so he quickly said, "My little girl is so lucky, I'm afraid I can't bear it."
However, Mo Lan's words at this time were very unruly. However, at this time, everyone's attention was focused on Qi Heng's mother and son, and no one paid any attention to her.
Princess Pingning didn't pay any attention to her son's request and said with a smile, "I haven't had any wine yet, how could I get drunk? I've brought all the gifts."
After the maid brought the gifts, Princess Pingning was going to ask Qi Heng to give them to several girls in person.
Mrs. Sheng had already seen through everything. She smiled and said, "If it is a reward from the princess, it doesn't matter. If you recognize my sister, forget it. The six girls who were raised by my side a few days ago have been booked to Xinke Tanhualang.
, I really can no longer accept gifts from my foreign husband."
After hearing what Mrs. Song said, Qi Heng could no longer sit still. He stood up excitedly and asked in surprise, "When did it happen?"
Mrs. Sheng was very satisfied with Qi Heng's reaction. She took a sip of tea and said calmly, "That is to say, a few days ago, Tanhua Lang asked his uncle, Lord Anshi Wang, to discuss this matter with my master in person.
After Changbai's marriage, the Wang family will come to hire someone."
What Qi Heng was concerned about was that Minglan had already decided to get married to Wang Yue. What Princess Pingning was concerned about was that the Wang family where Wang Anshi belonged was a scholarly family with several Jinshis in each generation. Although Wang Yue was said to be a side branch,
But he is also the legitimate son of the family, how could he marry a concubine as his wife?
Moreover, the Wang family has a very good family tradition. Wang Anshi is now 40 years old, has only one legitimate son, and only married one daughter-in-law and did not take any concubines.
Many girls in the capital were optimistic about the Wang family and wanted to marry into the Wang family as their daughters-in-law. However, they did not expect that Minglan, a concubine, would be so lucky.
Princess Pingning looked at her son again, and then looked back at Minglan, who was sitting steadily. For the first time, she wondered in her mind, was she wrong to stop her son like this?
Thinking of this, Princess Pingning looked at the very calm old lady Sheng. She felt that her thoughts had been seen through by the old lady. This brave and resolute daughter-in-law who was famous in the capital was indeed not a simple person.
Sometimes it was such a coincidence that Wang Yue felt that since he was engaged, he couldn't let Minglan use the same bumpy and vomiting carriage when she went out, so he gave a new carriage that he had improved.
Enter the Sheng Mansion so that Minglan can ride easily when she goes out.
It's just that Wang Yue's intentions are very good and simple, but what he didn't expect was that the commoner princess would also come to the house today, and he accidentally slapped her in the face.
Wang Yue brought this carriage to Sheng Mansion today and was chatting with Chang Bai, the groom's official. Chang Bai heard that Wang Yue had brought a gift for Minglan, so he immediately sent someone to inform Minglan.
The people in Changbai Courtyard seemed to be a bit naive. After listening to Changbai's instructions, they broke into the room in the front yard where the female family members were chatting.
When the eldest lady saw that it was the female envoy from Changbai's house who came to report, she thought something happened to the Hai family, so she quickly asked, "Why are you so panicked? Is there something wrong with Changbai?"
The female envoy in the Changbai House looked at the room full of people and knew that she was a little reckless. She did not dare to raise her head and said quickly, "Wang Tanhua was chatting with the second master. He brought a carriage and said
It is given to the sixth girl for transportation. The second master wants the sixth girl to take a look. If there is anything inappropriate, the second master will ask Wang Tanhua to change it."
Wang Yue gave the gift casually and didn't think too much about it. He just thought that he was engaged and wanted to express it no matter what to make Minglan feel more at ease.
However, all the female relatives in the room were very surprised when they heard what the maid said. After all, in this era, the gifts given by the engaged parties were not so generous for people to watch.
Even Princess Pingning was curious, what kind of carriage did Wang Tanhua send?
After a group of female family members came to the courtyard, they saw a very ordinary carriage parked in the yard. It didn't have any special features. It was just a bit wider than the usual carriage, which made these female family members who came here in joy a little disappointed.
Mrs. Sheng and Minglan had both ridden in Wang Yue's carriage. They knew that it was definitely not simple, but they were both low-key people, so they were not prepared to tell the truth.
But Ru Lan, who had always been outspoken, didn't think so. She had also ridden in Wang Yue's carriage and knew that there was something inside it.
At this moment, Ru Lan felt very unhappy when she saw Mo Lan's disdainful look. She wanted to see Mo Lan's envious look, so she smiled and explained to everyone, "Don't look at Jian Jian Jian from outside the carriage.
It’s single, but it’s actually quite amazing inside. It’s very comfortable to sit in, and it’s not bumpy at all.”
After Ru Lan finished speaking, he opened the sedan curtain without caring about Princess Pingning watching here, and walked in very neatly. He was very skillful, as if by magic, and moved all the things inside.
The small mechanisms were opened one by one, making the onlookers dizzy.
The most important thing is that when the carriage was driving forward, there was a breeze blowing from the carriage, which made people wonder what was going on. It was very surprising. This also made the carriage more precious.
The most important thing is that Ru Lan is sitting inside and the carriage is moving forward. People outside see through the curtains the golden steps on Ru Lan's head inside. As the carriage moves, it does not shake even a few times, which is very impressive.
I also understand how stable the carriage is inside.
