Picture her prosperous face
Chapter 25
When Qiao Yue returned home, it was almost evening, and she naturally forgot about the previous appointment to go to Yan's house.When she got off the carriage and was about to enter the house, Mai Dong took advantage of her composure to mention it, otherwise she would really forget about it.
Even relatives don't break appointments like this without saying a word.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yue felt a little guilty, coughed lightly and told Mai Dong, "Don't mention this matter, I will secretly send someone to my grandfather's house to spread the news, saying that I have something to delay, and I will come to the door tomorrow to apologize." After giving the order, he urged: "Find someone more reliable this time, don't let my parents know as soon as I turn around, and you have to talk about me again."
Mai Dong complied obediently, but it was obviously too late to spread the news after the incident, and she always felt that this matter could not be fooled.
Sure enough, when Qiao Yue was having dinner with her parents that night, Mrs. Qiao asked, "Ah Yue, where did you go this afternoon?"
Qiao Yue just wanted to answer that she went to her grandfather's house, when her mother said again: "I agreed to go to your grandfather's house, but your grandmother and a few cousins waited for you all afternoon, but no one was seen. Finally, I was worried. It’s okay, I’ve sent letters to ask.”
After saying this, how dare Qiao Yue lie?It's just that she said that she ran away when she saw the carriage of the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion. She is a little girl in her twenties and eight years old, and she is really a little embarrassed.So he lowered his head with guilt, and hesitated for a while before saying: "It's something that delayed me when I went out. It's my fault. I forgot to send a message to my grandmother. I will come to ask for forgiveness tomorrow."
Mrs. Qiao was a little helpless seeing her reckless appearance, but after all, it was her own family, so it would be fine to apologize to the old lady tomorrow and act coquettishly.So he muttered a few words, and seeing that Qiao Yue didn't explain further, he didn't delve into it further.
Qiao Yue breathed a sigh of relief, thinking she had escaped, but when she raised her eyes, she saw her father's meaningful gaze...
After a meal, Qiao Yue ate in fear, but fortunately, Qiao Shangshu didn't say anything at the end.But when she got back to her room, Qiao Yue was a little worried again - she was well known for her reluctance to go out in hot weather, it was fine to go out to Yan's house tomorrow, but three days later she had to go to the appointment of the eldest son.It's too abnormal to run out twice in these three days, her parents won't find anything, right?
Worrying and worrying for half the night, Qiao Yue suddenly realized before she fell asleep: her engagement has been broken, what happened when she went out to meet someone, and who is in the way?At most, at most, the identities of the two families are sensitive, so she just keeps a low profile.
Thinking of this, she finally fell asleep with peace of mind and had a good night's dream.
After waking up the next day, he went to Yan's house, had a good meal with his grandmother and begged for forgiveness with his sisters, and only then did he reveal the incident of breaking the appointment yesterday.For the next whole day, Qiao Yue also stayed at Yan's house. Not only did she see her grandmother and a few cousins, but she also met several of Yan's cousins for a rare time.After playing around like this all day, it was not until evening that I left and went home.
It was not until she got home that Qiao Yue realized from Mrs. Qiao's mouth that her grandmother asked her to come over.
She just got divorced, so it's not easy to find a good boy at this age, especially Mrs. Qiao went home some time ago and asked her natal family to look after her, but there was no result in the end.So the old lady looked at her grandchildren and made up their minds, or else they might as well kiss each other even more.
I met a few cousins on this trip, and I also wanted Qiao Yue to see if they were all right.Left and right married to Yan's family, and with grandmother and uncles and aunts taking care of her, Qiao Yue's life could be more relaxed.
In fact, the cousins of the Yan family are pretty good, except that their family background is slightly inferior to that of Jo and Xu's family, their personality and appearance are even better than Xu Changqing's.The old lady also has this self-confidence, which is why she wants to facilitate this marriage.
If she hadn't met Ji Chang, Qiao Yue might think that the marriage arrangement is not bad, but now...
With her chin propped up, Qiao Yue lazily leaned back in the chair, blinked and refused: "Mother, don't be ridiculous, I treat my cousins as my own brothers, and my cousins are all my own brothers. I How can you marry them, how awkward is that?"
Mrs. Qiao sighed, but she didn't think it was too surprised, but seeing her daughter's resolute rejection, she was a little worried - Shangshu Qiao met Ji Shizi yesterday, and told her when he came back, especially describing Ji Chang looks good.I also know that my daughter's face is so good, I'm afraid she will fall into it just by looking at it.
But Mrs. Qiao was just worried. She didn't get involved in the affairs of the court, and she didn't worry too much about it. After all, Qiao Shangshu, the head of the family, would settle things.But poor health is really worrying. If the daughter marries and becomes a widow early, wouldn't it ruin her life?
I want to persuade, but the matter is not clear, and I don't know where to start.
Mrs. Qiao was worried, but she didn't know that the other two in the family had gradually changed their minds, and her worries were in vain.
****************************************************************************
Something is changing subtly, and something is growing quietly.But at the same time, there were also some things that happened with great fanfare, for example, the Seventh Miss of Cheng En Gong's Mansion who was sent to Zhuangzi to "recover from illness" a few days ago, came back just like that!
At the beginning, when the water fell, the city was full of wind and rain. Zhao Shuxuan and Ji Chang's engagement was broken, and the Zhao family even sent her out of the house.I also want to know that in order to save face, it is also an explanation to the Marquis of Wu'an. Since Zhao Shuxuan was sent away in the name of "recovering from illness", she must end up with "death of illness" in the end.
There were many people who lamented this, and some lamented that the confidante was unlucky, but who knew that the Seventh Miss could come back with great fanfare? !
Yes, not only is Zhao Shuxuan back, but she's not small at all.The news quickly spread throughout the capital, not to mention, what was even more surprising was that the second day after Zhao Shuxuan came back, the third master of Cheng En Gong Mansion, that is, Zhao Shuxuan's father, actually went to the gate of Xu's house in person.
At that time, Xu Changqing's broken leg hadn't been healed yet, and the two families didn't know how to discuss it, and finally they settled on a marriage like this!
This is a blatant slap in the face of the other two families, especially the Marquis of Wu'an.Although the engagement has been broken, with such an ending, Ji Chang's head is not green, but the whole grassland is covered on his head!
Chang Qing and Chang Ming were both stunned by this operation, and at the same time disgusted.
Chang Qing, who was even more irritable and irritable, almost took the knife: "The Cheng'en government is really deceiving people too much! It's their fault. They just broke the engagement and sent the person away before. Now they don't say anything about bringing the person back. She is engaged to that kid from the Xu family, what is she taking our son for? Is it really easy to bully when we really think that there is no one in our Marquis Mansion?!"
Chang Ming's face was also very ugly, but when he heard the last sentence, he still pulled Chang Qing's sleeves to signal him to shut up.It's a pity that Chang Qing was at the beginning and didn't understand it, he was still gnashing his teeth and feeling aggrieved.
On the other hand, Ji Chang, after listening to the news from the beginning to the end, and seeing that the two were furious, he himself was calm.
In the end, Chang Ming calmed down first, and at the same time stopped Chang Qing who was about to go to Xu's house to kill someone.He looked at the calm Ji Chang, and still felt that he couldn't understand the other's calmness: "Is the son really not angry?"
Although the three of them grew up together, the cultivation of the upper class and the lower class is also different in the end.And although Changqing and Changming have been with Ji Chang for a long time and know her quite well, they still can't understand some of her temperament.For example, at this moment, when such a green hat is withheld, without leaving any face, even a man should not be able to bear it, but the son of his family is not angry.
Chang Ming felt that his family's son's skill in nourishing qi was really not like that of a violent general.
When Ji Chang heard the question, he was still as unhurried as before.She was holding a carving knife in her hand, and she was carving a small thing at random, and said casually as the sawdust splashed: "It's just something that was expected, so why get angry."
As soon as these words came out, Chang Ming was stunned, and even Chang Qing, who was still struggling to kill someone before, did not move.
The two stared blankly at Ji Chang, and said in unison: "You know?!"
What Ji Chang carved in her hand was a war horse, and now she has seen its shape for the first time. She stopped the carving knife to blow away the sawdust, and her tone was as calm as ever: "Two days ago, I saw the carriage of Duke Cheng'en's mansion picking her up. Come back, do you still have to guess what will happen next?"
Why don't you have to guess, Cheng'en Gong's mansion is determined to feud with Wu'anhou's mansion?Not to mention the Duke Cheng's Mansion with the backing of the Emperor and Empress, and the Xu family. Would it be possible for them to agree to this marriage without fear of revenge from the Hou Mansion and the Qiao family?You know, the foundation of the Xu family is just like that, but they can't afford the joint suppression of the two families. Xu's father shouldn't be a fool to sit in his current official position.
Chang Ming had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and finally decided to check it out again.
A day later, I got the news that it was said that Cheng Engong's mansion took Zhao Shuxuan back because of the queen's hint.On the surface, she is the sister of Gu Nian and wants to take care of Zhao Shuxuan, the little sister, but in fact she is the one who made the marriage happen.
With the empress intervening, the emperor's shadow would be behind him, so it was only natural that the Xu family dared not speak up.But Chang Ming still doesn't understand what the emperor's intention is for this move. Is it just to make Cheng'en's mansion and Wu'anhou's mansion completely tear apart?If this is the case, what kind of marriage contract was terminated back then, just let the son pinch his nose and admit it, isn't it unnecessary now?
If Ji Chang knew Chang Ming's doubts, he would tell him: The emperor didn't want to tear the two families apart, he clearly just wanted to disgust people.With these two people bluffing around the market, how could Ji Chang and Qiao Yue not have pimples in their hearts?Especially Qiao Yue and Xu Changqing are still childhood sweethearts!
But let's not mention these for now, Ji Chang held up the "War Horse" that had been carved for two days and looked at it for a while, and felt that his craftsmanship was not bad, and it should be a gift after polishing it.So she held up the "war horse" and asked Chang Qing on the side: "Chang Qing, tell me, if I give this war horse as a gift to the girl, will she like it?"
Chang Qing who was suddenly asked: "..."
Chang Qing's expression was a bit indescribable, and after a while, he choked out a sentence: "Girls probably don't like these. They all like rouge and gouache, as well as beautiful clothes and jewelry. If you want to give a gift, my son, you should buy another copy."
Ji Chang withdrew his hand when he heard the words, but he didn't feel disappointed, so he responded casually and stopped talking.
On the contrary, Chang Qing came back to his senses, looking at his eldest son who seemed to be "enlightened", he scratched his heart and liver with curiosity for a moment.
The author has something to say: Qiao Yue (surprise): I heard that you spent two or three days making a gift for me yourself?
Prince (denies): I'm not, I don't have one, I carved it casually, it's not to please you!
PS: Send it at the third watch, please ask for flowers! ! !
