Chapter 550, today is not a good day
"Don’t tell me what you just saw!"
Back to Zhou's mansion, Daohua couldn't help but instigate Zhou Jingwan.
Zhou Jingwan nodded: "Don't worry, I know how serious things are."
The two went to the main courtyard to meet with Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Li.
Because tomorrow is Zhou Chengye’s day to get married, some of the people who have made friends with Zhou’s family have arrived early. The wives and girls of all families gather together, so it’s so lively.
I saw the ceremony with the ladies and girls, and talked about it for a while, Daohua thought in her heart what she had just seen on the street, said to Zhou Jingwan, and took time out.
Not long after returning to Zhou Jingwan’s courtyard, Wang Man'er returned.
"How's it going, did you inquire?" Daohua asked anxiously.
Wang Man'er nodded: "The slave servant followed the carriage all the way to the door of Wangyue Academy. I found the guardian to find out that the girl is the daughter of Master Lu of the Academy."
Daohua narrowed her eyebrows: "Master Lu?" After hesitating for a while, he said uncertainly, "I remember that the master who taught the eldest brother's policy theory seems to be named Lu, right?"
Wang Man'er nodded: "It seems to be true. I remember one time when the master tried to teach the uncle, he praised Master Lu who taught him the novel viewpoint."
Daohua became silent.
Wang Man'er asked: "Girl, do you want to tell madam about this?"
Daohua shook her head decisively: "No, since eldest brother didn't say anything, let's pretend not to know. Maybe there is nothing at all, but we think too much."
At the same time, the first restaurant in Xingzhou City.
Looking at Yan Wenxiu who kept pouring wine into his mouth, Zhou Chengye had a headache. He stretched out his hand and forcibly snatched the jug over: “Don’t drink anymore, you have to go back with alcohol, how can you explain to auntie.”
Yan Wenxiu stayed sullenly silent.
Zhou Chengye sighed: "If you want me to say that if you really like Miss Lu, go and find out with your uncle and aunt, you may not agree with them because of their love for you."
Yan Wenxiu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I am not the same as you. You can choose the girl you like. You don't need to care about the family, but I can't."
"Our family has worked hard, and relied on my father to be alone in the officialdom to get the status now. If I want the Yan family to go further, I have to marry a wife who can help the Yan family. ."
Hearing this, Zhou Chengye was silent. He understood Yan Wenxiu's feelings very well, because he was also the eldest son of the family, and as the eldest son, he had to bear the responsibility for the prosperity of the family.
"Hey, why don't you consider Miss Lu as your concubine?"
Yan Wenxiu shook his head: "Let's not say whether Master Lu promised or not, even if he agrees, I can't bear to be so wronged by Lu Ran." He was silent for a while.
"My elder sister Zeng Jin said that if she marries a wife, she must be responsible to her. I can’t enjoy the benefits brought by the Yue family while wronging other people’s daughters. This is not a thing."
Zhou Chengye disagreed with his face: "Why is this? It is natural for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Even if it is not Miss Lu, you will have other concubines in the future."
Yan Wenxiu was silent and did not speak. After a while, he picked up the flask and poured himself a glass of wine, drank it in one sip, and then placed the glass heavily on the table: "Lu Ran deserves better, and she will be married by a matchmaker in the future. , Presided over the middle-feeding, husband and wife, and I need to take on my own responsibilities."
Seeing him like this, Zhou Chengye couldn’t talk more about other things.
Yan Wenxiu stood up: "Let's go, go back, you will be the groom tomorrow, but you have to go back and prepare for your life."
Zhou Mansion.
After lunch, Mrs. Li saw that Mrs. Zhou was busy, so she took Yan Yihuan and Yan Yishuang back to the guest house to rest.
Because Zhou Jingwan was busy, Daohua came to Mrs. Li's side.
"Mother!"
Mrs. Li pulled her daughter to her side and sat down: "Why don't you look so spirited?"
Daohua leaned against Mrs. Li's shoulder: "I'm a little tired."
Ms. Li smiled and said, “Since you’re tired, stay in the house and don’t run around.”
Next, Mrs. Li again talked to Daohua about the ladies and girls she saw today, and she was talking about Zhou Jingwan's entry into Beijing afterwards.
"Before the guests arrived this morning, Mrs. Zhou and I wentssiping, saying that they came to Beijing this time to give Jingwan a kiss."
Daohua was violently hit by these words, and looked at Mrs. Li eagerly: "Mother, what did you say just now? What did Jingwan do when she went to the capital?"
Mrs. Li found her daughter's stunned reaction and felt a little funny: "Look at you like this. What's so surprising about this? Jingwan is a bit older than you, and she will soon be able to kiss her. Your Aunt Zhou started to tell her to kiss her. Isn't this normal?"
said, his face was sighing.
"In a blink of an eye, you little girls are all reaching the age to marry."
Daohua confirmed again: "Mother, Jing Wan clearly said that she was only going to the capital to visit Master on Tuesday. Isn’t Madam Zhou joking?"
Madam Li glanced at Daohua: "How can a mother joking about her daughter's marriage? Jingwan didn't know that Madam Zhou didn't tell her." After speaking, she paused, "I really envy the Zhou family. They still have contacts in the capital, so they can choose a good one for Jingwan, and our family won't have any."
Daohua rubbed her temples suddenly, she didn't even hear what Mrs. Li was talking about, she said in her heart that today is not a good day.
First, it was the girl who knocked down the eldest brother’s private meeting of the master’s house, and now there is such a surprise news.
Seeing that her daughter's complexion was not very good, Mrs. Li asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Daohua shook her head, was silent for a while, and looked at Mrs. Li with some hesitation.
Seeing Mrs. Li, she was a little surprised: "I came out from the west today? Why did you become hesitant?"
Taohua took a deep breath and tentatively said: "Mother, you said. Is it possible for our family to marry the Zhou family?"
Ms. Li instantly raised her eyes to look at Daohua, thinking of the little son telling herself about her before, and her brows jumped: "Explanation!"
Daohua: ". Third brother, third brother seems to like Jingwan."
Hearing this, Mrs. Li suddenly got a headache. She knew how many children were playing well, but one or two of them had secret affair, which made her very annoyed.
If this kind of thing spreads out, how will others view the Yan family?
Suddenly, Mrs. Li grabbed Daohua: "Yiyi, tell your mother honestly, you didn’t learn from your two brothers, did you?"
Daohua's heart bulged, her eyes dodged and turned away, and her voice was a little erratic and said, "No."
Mrs. Li condensed her eyebrows and looked at Daohua, with a serious face: "Yiyi, our women are more famous than the sky, you can't do anything like a lifelong personal decision."
Daohua frowned and frowned: "Mother, what are you talking about, of course my daughter knows."
Mrs. Li also knew that her daughter was well-measured, and she was a little relieved, but she still said: "Don't blame your mother for saying that it is not good to listen to, privately decide this kind of thing for life, and the man will do it, and it will be said that it is young and romantic at most; But if the girl’s family did it, that would be a terrible thing."
Daohua was a little stuck in her heart, and she hung her head and did not speak.
Ms. Li looked at Daohua, did not say much, but carefully recalled the foreign man her daughter had contacted.
The most is the little prince, Dong Yuanxuan, and Su Hongxin.
Fortunately, these three people don't go to their house very often now. It seems that she will have to restrain her daughter in the future and can't let her go out casually.
