Chapter 267 Actively and Passively Seeking Marriage
Li Cheng's goal was not achieved. He did not dare to see Lin Zhixiu or go to Uncle An's house. He was so anxious that he wandered around the house.
Finally, I made up my mind to go tomorrow!
Even if you go out and get beaten and scolded, you can't delay this matter.
Otherwise, if you really get married... it will be too late!
Speaking of which, the Lin family has something good going on.
Lin came back immediately and told Mrs. Lin that the emperor originally wanted to give Lin Zhirong, the second daughter of the Lin family, to Wang Xiao, the eldest son of Uncle Huai En, as his wife at the summer palace banquet. However, due to some accidents recently, the gift of marriage was given to Wang Xiao.
Things have been delayed.
Therefore, the emperor's intention is to let the two families of Lin and Wang discuss it first and make a decision, and then the emperor will grant a marriage.
After Lin finished speaking, he left.
Old Mrs. Lin called Mr. Huang over. They haven't seen each other very often recently.
Mr. Huang came and sat down. The two of them were stunned for a while before speaking.
Old Mrs. Lin said, "The population of Uncle Huai En's Mansion is simple, and the family is not prosperous. I vaguely heard that this guy's talent is not outstanding."
Mr. Huang said nothing.
Old Mrs. Lin continued, "Normally speaking, it's not a good marriage. But the emperor is determined to grant the marriage, so he must have a reason to value him. This girl Zhirong... is good at everything! It's just... one, she doesn't take advantage of her.
.The other one, the third child, is somewhat unjustifiable in this position!"
Mr. Huang is angry. Do you know that he cannot be justified in his position?
Old Mrs. Lin didn't know what she was thinking, so she continued, "So, we have been searching for her for so long, but we still can't find a good one. This marriage, that is, relying on your eldest brother, is valued by the emperor! In addition, the emperor's gift
How many girls in the capital can get such dignity as marriage? After entering the Wang family with such honor, no one dares to treat her badly!"
Although Mrs. Huang was not convinced, this was the fact and she could only nod her head, "Daughter-in-law, go back and talk to Zhirong."
Lin Zhirong came back from the summer palace and fell ill. He didn't have a fever or anything. He was just lazy and had no interest in doing anything. Even dressing up, which he loved most before, couldn't cheer him up.
She neither greeted the old lady nor Mr. Huang, nor went out of the yard. She just sat there in a daze.
This time, we are done with that person.
My heart ached for a while.
However, in her dreams, she could always see that her efforts were finally rewarded. He pulled her and smiled like that...
Just thinking about it makes my face heat up and my heart beats fast.
I felt for a moment... could I, no matter how hard I work and go through some twists and turns, finally get what I want?!
Mrs. Huang came and told her about the Wang family's marriage.
When Lin Zhirong heard this, his heart seemed to sink to the bottom of the lake.
Everything is over, no matter how much you think about it, it's just fantasy.
She finally couldn't control it and started crying.
Sitting there, Mr. Huang thought that her daughter disliked the Wang family, so she sighed and said, "The Wang family is not well-known in the capital. I have never met the Wang family in ordinary social life. But since the emperor is willing to grant him a marriage, it means that Wang
Xiao, something caught the emperor's eye. You don't have to be too sad... Although the emperor didn't grant a marriage, this matter is settled."
Lin Zhirong slowly stopped talking and remained silent.
Huang said, "I heard that the Wang family has a simple population, so that's good. Women... people say that they rely on their father at home and their husbands when they go out. According to my mother, it's better to rely on yourself than to rely on anyone. Just like you, I can point you out.
What about a father? For example, a mother, what do you expect from her husband? Therefore, whoever is good is not as good as yourself."
Lin Zhirong's eyes were slightly swollen and he didn't speak.
In fact, Mrs. Huang felt very sad. A guy like Fang Qunqun could marry Prince An as his wife! This person really can't compete for anything. "The two families, next, it's time to talk about the engagement. No matter what, it's too late."
You have a year to prepare for marriage..." By that time, my money will almost be back, right?
"When the time comes, Mom will give you a generous dowry. I promise, it will be more than Lin Zhifang's! You will live a good life in the Wang family, and you don't need to look at anyone's eyes!"
Lin Zhirong clicked "Mom, my daughter will figure it out." I can't figure it out, is there any way?
After chatting for a while, Huang left.
Lin Zhirong looked at the window, Ha, Wang family!
Now, not only can I not love him, I can't even harm him!
When Yuan came back from watching Lin Zhifang, she talked proudly to the old lady for a long time, just how much the Shen family valued Lin Zhifang and so on.
The old lady listened with joy on her face.
Mrs. Yuan thought it was because of her daughter's pregnancy, and she felt even more proud.
In fact, Mrs. Lin is still happy about another thing.
She sent Aunt Wang to the Zhang family and asked Mrs. Wang about her family. Mrs. Zhang said: Something happened to the land the Wang family bought.
The Wang family spent a lot of money to buy land, buying a lot here and there, and finally wanted to connect them together.
As a result, the owner was unwilling to sell one of the pieces no matter how much money he paid.
So, the people who worked for the Wang family colluded with the local officials to bully others. The family was very tough, and if one of them made a mistake, they got into a fight. In the chaos, the son of that family died.
Coincidentally, he was an only child! His parents couldn't bear it, so they hung themselves from a tree in the field.
The incident caused a sensation locally.
The person who went to handle the matter managed the relationship between the upper and lower levels of the place, managed to hold the matter in check, and finally got the land.
This piece of land was owned by the Wang family in the name of the owner of Wenhua County and used as her dowry.
Originally, everything was over.
Unexpectedly, not long after, a distant relative of the family, for some reason, jumped to the next level and filed a complaint.
The officials who had received the money at that time wanted to take action against this man in order to cover up this fact. This man, with unknown help, escaped from the siege and came to the capital.
In Dali Temple, the Wang family was settled directly.
Now, the witnesses are under protection and are in the investigation and evidence collection stage.
If this matter is carried out, it will have a very bad impact on the reputation of Wenhua County Lord.
The crux of the matter is that her fiancé, the Zheng family, is very concerned about this matter.
Because her fiancé, Mr. Zheng, has recently run several beautiful errands, which are particularly popular with the emperor.
It is obvious that he looks like the future head of the family.
If you have a wife with such a bad reputation...hehe, actually, if you don't care, it's not a big problem.
However, Zheng Xian cares!
He lost his temper with his mother and made it so difficult for his mother!
Now, all matters related to the wedding have been stopped and no further progress has been made.
When Old Mrs. Lin heard the news, she was so happy that she couldn't help but want to go to Prince Consort Wang's house to watch the fun!
At this moment, listening to Yuan's various boasts and boasts, Old Mrs. Lin was not bothered and decided that she would go see Lin Zhifang in person when things got real.
Wu Jingxiang finally woke up.
She became deep and silent. She took care of herself, left the room at night, and found a letter somewhere in the garden.
In the past, Wu Li did all these things, but now that she is gone, without training new people, she has to do it herself.
When she went back, she sat under the lamp and read it carefully, nodding lightly...
The next day, she went to her grandfather's house and knelt down to Mr. Wu Ge, "Jingxiang, you have caused trouble to your grandfather and parents."
Mr. Wu Ge nodded, "Get up! Just be fine!"
Wu Jingxiang stood up and sat down.
Mr. Wu Ge looked at his favorite granddaughter. Although she had lost a lot of weight, her expression was not panic at all. He couldn't help but nodded, "Well, although this matter is not good, your reaction is very good! My granddaughter, then
That’s right! What do you think next?”
Wu Jingxiang said, "At present, the best way out for Jingxiang is Li Feng! I hope my grandfather will support me!"
Mr. Wu Ge said, "Jingxiang...you are the one for whom my grandfather has high hopes. My grandfather is full of ambitions, but suffers from poor health. As the daughter of the Wu family, you have to share a lot of the burdens."
!Since you said so, grandpa will believe you. I hope your judgment is not wrong!"
Then, Wu Jingxiang was taken by her parents to the Li family.
The highest-level women Mrs. Li has ever seen are Ren Baihui, the Lin family girl, and Mrs. Wu from last time.
Seeing Wu Jingxiang, Mrs. Li understood... what Lin Zhixiu said before.
This is a completely different person from the Zhang family girl.
They are basically two kinds of people!
I can't help but feel a little nervous, such a woman wants to be my daughter-in-law... I, I don't even know what to say to her!
Mrs. Li was sweating.
And Wu Jingxiang, with a pair of lacquered eyes and a faint smile on his face, sat next to Mrs. Li. When he spoke, his tone was neither urgent nor slow, and his voice was neither high nor low. His attitude was sincere and close.
No airs!
After talking harmoniously for a long time, I found out that Wu Jingxiang had been near Mrs. Li's hometown.
She talked about the scenery, customs, people's looks, and clothing characteristics there...everything was so vivid!
Mrs. Li felt like she was back in her hometown again.
When Wu Jingxiang mentioned that the most unforgettable thing for her was the tofu noodle there...
Mrs. Li's eyes turned red and tears flowed down her face.
A farm girl like her has lived a very down-to-earth life since she was a child. She has no ambitions, and what she wants most is just the life she is used to.
She likes the mountains and rivers in her hometown and all kinds of food and fun things. How could she not think about it after being away for such a long time?
Wu Jingxiang took out a handkerchief and wiped Mrs. Li's tears, feeling embarrassed that she had made Mrs. Li cry.
Mrs. Li couldn't hold it in any longer and chatted with Wu Jingxiang for a long time with her eyes full of joy.
This is the time when she talks the most since leaving her hometown.
When Wu Jing left, Mrs. Li was a little reluctant to leave!
Looking at the elegant background, she thought to herself, how great it would be if this was her daughter-in-law!
