Chapter 423

The old lady was very surprised that Mo Pingchu would take the initiative to mention it to her. She always thought that Mo Pingchu was not very satisfied with Xiaojiu's marriage, and worried that they might try to delay their engagement in the future.

The old lady looked Mo Pingchu a few eyes, and felt that there was a little impatience on Xiao Wu's face, which was always steady and calm. She couldn't help but wonder and asked, "Xiao Wu, is something wrong with Chaozhong? If it's difficult, why don't you discuss it with your father or uncle? "

Mo Pingchu was slightly stunned and said as usual: "there is nothing difficult in the court."

"Then why do you rush to get Xiaojiu engaged?"

"The grandson just thinks that since he wants to get engaged, it's better to make it earlier so that his grandmother won't worry about it and save some extra trouble."

"But did someone ask about Xiao Jiu again?"

Mo Pingchu pursed his lips and said nothing. The old lady sighed and said, "I knew that as soon as I got back to Beijing, it would not be peaceful. You're right. I'll settle down early and have a good morning. In this way, it's Qingming. After Qingming, he takes off his filial piety and enjoys a flower feast at half-time. First, let Xiao jiuliang show up and get familiar with these contacts in Kyoto; Second, let's announce the marriage of Xiao Jiu and a Rui in public with the Cheng family, so that those who are always thinking about it will die early and save trouble in the future. "

"What grandma said is very true, the grandson will go down to arrange it; In my grandmother's opinion, would you like to talk to the government of Dongping county about this first? "

"I've been angry for a long time. You don't know that the Duke of Dongping is in a hurry. The next day we went back to Beijing, the Duke of Dongping came with his wife. Although he didn't say it clearly, the meaning of the words is that he wanted to settle down the matter of a Rui and Xiao Jiu earlier."

"That's good. No one will think about Xiao Jiu's marriage after the marriage is decided. Grandma will be able to live with Xiao Jiu an."

"It's true that our Mo family is peaceful and peaceful. You're all well. I'll talk to the old man in the future."

"Grandma has to watch Xiao Jiu get married for her grandfather and have great grandchildren, but she can't always say that."

"Well, grandma will live to be 100 years old and look after you."

Mo Pingchu and the old lady agreed to go out immediately to make arrangements. It's only three days away from Qingming. He must find a way to hold down the Tianjian, and never let the emperor know that Xiaojiu is a matter of Tianfu star. Thinking of what Li Yuanjia quietly told himself, Mo Pingchu couldn't help feeling cold in his back. What they wanted was nothing but Xiaojiu's happiness and freedom.

As long as Xiao Jiu and the Cheng family make an engagement, the emperor will never break up the marriage and rob them. No matter how confused he is, he will worry about the military power in the hands of the Mo family and the face of the Cheng family.

Thinking of this, Mo Pingchu can't help taking a deep breath. Although he is not satisfied with the marriage, it's really the only way now. Xiao Jiu and Cheng Mingrui must get engaged as soon as possible and make a big announcement to the world.

After the Qingming Festival, the Mo family took off the white lanterns hanging at the gate and put on red lanterns. They took off their plain clothes and put on colorful clothes, ending the filial piety period.

On the ninth day of the ninth day of the lunar new year, the weather was cloudless, the spring was slightly drunk, and the garden of the Mo family was full of all kinds of valuable flowers and trees.

After three years, the Mo family held a banquet for the first time. All the dignitaries in Kyoto came to the door one after another. All the families sat together and chatted. In full dress, Xiao Jiu took all the young ladies to the garden to play at will.

Xu bao'er looks at Xiaojiu's long skirt and is envious. If she is right, Xiaojiu's skirt should be made of silver cloud silk. This kind of material is not only valuable but also extremely rare. It is said that it is made of broken and very thin silver silk. Therefore, the clothes made of silver cloud silk are worn on her body and when she walks around, Streamer overflow, as if the clouds in the sky draped in the general eye-catching. Because silver silk is very soft and easy to break, the weavers with the best craftsmanship in Jiangnan can only weave one piece a year, so silver cloud silk has been a royal offering since it came out. It's hard for ordinary concubines in the back palace to get them. It's said that only princess Xie has one or two pieces of silver cloud silk clothes, but as soon as Xiao Jiu came back to Beijing, he appeared for the first time and wore a Yuehua skirt made of silver cloud silk.

As we all know, there are as many as ten pieces of Yuehua skirt. The pleats at the waist are very dense, which costs the most material. But just because of this, the skirt is particularly delicate and elegant. It is as beautiful as the moonlight when it moves in the wind, so it is called Yuehua skirt.

In this way, she yearns for what she wants, but Xiaojiu can easily get it. Looking at the dazzling Xiaojiu, and then at herself, Xu bao'er can't help hating in her heart. Although my aunt loves her very much, she is Xu or mo. for such a precious thing, my aunt can only prepare for her own daughter, but I can't think of her niece at all.

Xu bao'er doesn't know that Xiao Jiu's dressing up is not only for the banquet, but also because the old lady wants to make a deal with her in public. So I ordered someone to make such a gorgeous dress for Xiao Jiu.

But Xu bao'er has a heart knot with Xiaojiu since he came. He was envious when he saw Xiaojiu dressed up. When he saw Xiaojiu on the stage, everyone gathered around him. Every word you said and I said was full of compliments. Xiaojiu was like the moon held by many stars. He could not help feeling more and more uncomfortable.

Seeing that Xiaojiu talks and laughs with others and doesn't look at herself, Xu bao'er's resentment is blocked to the limit. She stares at Xiaojiu and goes straight away to find her mother Gao Xiue.

But Xu bao'er suddenly went back, just heard something she shouldn't have heard, and met an unexpected person. This sudden discovery made Xu bao'er feel elated. She couldn't help returning immediately to find Xiao Jiu.

Xiaojiu is speechless about Xu bao'er's return. She heard that her mother had said that Xu bao'er would get married in June. Her husband was Chen Ying, the second son of Chen Xian, a Guanglu doctor. She was noble and had outstanding literary talent. She had just passed the imperial academy examination. Although doctor Guanglu was a civil servant, he was a close official of the emperor, especially Chen Xian, who had been an official for nearly ten years and won the emperor's trust. Chen Ying entered the Hanlin Academy at a young age and had a bright future in the future. With Xu bao'er's family background and personality, it was definitely a winner to find such a marriage.

But in Xiaojiu's opinion, Xu bao'er is more annoying than when he was a child. If Xu bao'er was selfish and mean when he was a child, then Xu bao'er whom Xiaojiu met this time is a bit more arrogant and domineering. Xiaojiu thinks about it. It's the marriage that gives Xu bao'er the confidence to show off in front of the public.

Looking back at Xu bao'er, who is full of excitement and goes straight to him, Xiao Jiu can't help sighing silently. I'm afraid that this annoying Xu bao'er is going to have another moth, right? Small nine for his headache at the same time, can't help but also for the future cousin secretly sigh, also don't know that Chen Ying is pour what bad luck, unexpectedly want to marry with Xu Baoer, really pitiful!
