Chapter 153 The date of marriage has been determined
Lv Xianger looked at the lake with surprise and disbelief, which attracted the attention of a little lady next to her. This little lady is the one who just pulled Lv Xianger. If it hadn't been for her, Lv Xiang'er would have fallen into the lake long ago.
Originally, this little lady was also easy and didn't care about anything. But Lv Xianger didn't even say 'thank you', which made her confused. Seeing Lv Xianger looking straight at the opposite side again, the little lady thought she was looking at those princes. But she found that she had read it wrong, but the person Lu Xianger was looking at was the little lady.
I don't know why it's out of her heart. The little lady, who usually doesn't talk to strangers, looked at the little lady and whispered, "That little lady's name is He Ya, and she is the daughter of Lord He Shenghe, the servant of the Ministry of Household. I heard that He Ya was not in good health when she was born, so she was taken away by a Taoist master. She only returned to He's house a few days ago.
"A few days ago..." Lv Xianger was slightly stunned when she heard this, and she thought it was really her. But after thinking about it, Lv Xianger realized that these words were said by people around her. At this time, Lv Xianger remembered that she almost fell into the lake, and it was the people around her who pulled her.
Thinking of this, Lv Xianger immediately turned her head and said, "This little lady, I haven't thanked you for your rescue just now. It's really rude."
"It doesn't matter. I just took a hand." The little lady and Lv Xianger looked at each other and were stunned. They didn't expect to meet such an outstanding little lady in this place. And when they met for the first time, the two of them felt that the other was a little woman they could make friends with. This is the second time that Lv Xianger has had such a feeling since she met Chaoxia again.
Just as Lv Xianger was about to say something, a young man who was similar to the little lady opposite squeezed over and said to the little lady, "Sister, let's go back. I think it should be quiet at this time. By the way, I also need to buy some pickles that my grandmother likes, so that she won't be angry with me again.
"Well, brother, let's go back." The little lady smiled at Lv Xianger and was ready to leave with the young man. At this time, the prince found that Lv Xianger had an amazing look in his eyes, but he soon regained his composure. When he saw his sister smiling at Lv Xianger, he nodded before leaving with the little lady. When the brother and sister walked out, the prince took a look at the luxurious boat in the lake, with a trace of disdain on his face.
Lv Xianger watched the brother and sister disappear in the crowd, and then turned to look at the painting boat on the lake. Looking for Xiang Qingya, who is now He Ya, Lv Xianger was very puzzled. How could she become the daughter of the household servant? Her biological father was not King Chen. However, these are not the most important for Lv Xianger. Lv Xianger is most concerned about Lv Hong. She is in Beijing. Will she meet Lv Hong? What will Lv Hong feel like after the meeting? Lv Xianger was a little melancholy.
Confirming that what Liao Wenbo said was true, Lv Xianger took a carriage back to her home in the West City. At the door, Lv Xianger saw that it was getting late, so she asked Brother Tie to pick up Yuan Musheng and his wife. She saw Brother Tie leave by herself, so she opened the door and walked into the house.
But when I walked into the yard, I saw Xiaowu and Zaoer standing honestly under the eaves of the main room, and their faces seemed to be a little uneasy. But the room in the main room is quiet. Seeing this, Lv Xianger's heart sank and immediately walked to the main room, guessing what had happened.
When Zao'er saw Lv Xianger, she seemed to be relieved and whispered, "The little lady is back. The lady, the little lady of Chaoxia, and the prince are all in the room."
"Oh, I know. Zao'er, it's getting late. Go and prepare dinner." Lv Xianger paused, looked at Zao'er, and said to Xiaowu, "Xiaowu, go and help Zao'er make a fire. Make a pot of tea first."
"Yes, little lady." After listening to Lv Xianger's instructions, Zao'er and Xiaowu immediately walked to the kitchen in the backyard.
Lv Xianger's voice when she spoke was not deliberately lowered. The people in the room knew that she knew. Lv Hong's voice sounded first: "Xiang'er, you're back. Come in quickly."
"Brother, Xiang'er is coming in now." Lv Xianger walked into the main room as she replied. Listening to Lv Hong's voice, Lv Xianger walked to Lv Erniang's bedroom without stopping.
When she opened the door, Lv Xianger found that Lv Er Niang was sitting in ** with an ugly face. Chaoxia also looked like a stranger in a hurry. Lv Hong's performance was not too obvious. But Lv Xianger still saw a lot of resentment in Lv Hong's eyes.
"What's the matter?" Lv Xianger smiled first, and then walked to Lv Erniang to sit next to her, secretly looking at the performance of several people's faces.
Lv Erniang looked at Lv Xianger, and her lips moved slightly. After a long time, she whispered, "Xiang'er, if A Niang gets married to the government, you can also go with A Niang. Thinking about it, the old prince and he are also willing.
"Mother, it's all about dowry, but you let me do dowry." Lv Xianger smiled and did not agree with Lv Erniang's consent. She also knew that Lv Erniang would definitely worry about herself, so she looked at Lv Hong and said, "Niang, don't worry, when you enter the Guogong Mansion, don't you still have an elder brother and sister Chaoxia at home? Even if Sister Chaoxia is married and her brother is married, Xiang'er is not alone.
"Mother, Xiang'er is right. As long as I'm here, I won't let others bully Xiang'er." Lv Hong had been persuading Lv Erniang before, but unfortunately it had no effect. At this time, seeing Lv Xianger say a few words, Lv Erniang's expression seemed to have changed a little, and Lv Hong also hurriedly said.
In fact, Lv Erniang also knows Lv Xianger's nature. She will definitely not follow her to the government to live under the shelter of others. But thinking of the person she met today and their mother and son, Lv Erniang looked at Lv Xianger worriedly. Lv Erniang was sure that the little lady who looked like her mother and her brother would not be like that.
Lv Erniang was thinking about things in her heart, and her face did not hide her expression, so that Lv Xianger could see the truth. Lv Xianger looked at the silent and gloomy morning glow, and suddenly understood. Lu Erniang and Chaoxia may have encountered something at today's party.
Thinking that Lv Erniang was here, Lv Xianger couldn't ask, so she said, "Mother, I've been busy all day today, and I'm a little hungry. The dishes made by dates are not as delicious as the dishes made by A Niang.
"Oh, it's time. I'll go to the kitchen." Hearing what Lv Xianger said, Lv Erniang found that the room had darkened and quickly got up and went out.
At this time, Xiaowu also came in with a pot of tea. Lv Hong looked at it and rushed forward and poured himself a cup of tea: "I just persuaded my mouth to dry, but I was thirsty. Sister Chaoxia, don't be angry. Let's talk to Xianger. I didn't understand much of what my mother said just now.
"Sister Chaoxia, what's going on?" When Lv Xianger heard what Lv Hong said, she moved to Chaoxia's side and sat down. Chaoxia took the tea that Lv Hong poured for her, but she did not drink it but held it in her hand. She slowly talked about today's party.
It is said that today's party was held in Taifu's house, which had just been held. This old man, surnamed Fu, is also an important minister in the court similar to Song Beiqiao, which is highly valued by His Majesty the Emperor. Moreover, the sister of Concubine Song in the harem is still the daughter-in-law of Wen Taifu, and the status of the Wen family in the capital is not low. Some time ago, Wen Taifu was an official, but his son Wen Nuo had just been promoted to Dali Qing. The glory of the literati does not diminish, and naturally it is like a city.
I heard that Mrs. Wen was going to choose a wife for Wen Song, the eldest grandson of the Wen family, and many noble ladies who received the invitation posted took their children to the party. Even if your daughter can't get into Mrs. Wen's eyes, she can still grow eyes for her son.
The relationship between the Wen family and the government is also good. Naturally, he knows that Song Yuan is going to marry a wife of He Li. Although Mrs. Wen looked down on Song Yuan's behavior, she also sent a post to Lv Erniang through Zheng, the wet nurse of the general's mansion.
Although Lv Erniang did not like such an occasion, in order to adapt to this kind of life and for Chaoxia, she took Chaoxia to Wenfu with Zheng and Huo Qingqing. Unexpectedly, at this party, Lv Erniang found that Zheng Baiyang's wife also came with her daughter.
Mrs. Zheng was also very surprised to see Lv Erniang in Wenfu. Through insinuation, it was learned that Lv Erniang was already the future wife of the Duke of Song. Naturally, Mrs. Zheng was envious and jealous. Therefore, when the ladies sat down and spoke, Mrs. Zheng squeezed Lv Erniang with words. Moreover, she also let everyone present know that Lv Erniang was a wife with her son and Li, and a daughter of unknown origin.
Mrs. Zheng's intention was obvious, but she didn't get much of hers. Although these ladies were influenced by Mrs. Zheng in their hearts, they looked down on Lv Erniang. But behind Lv Erniang is the government, and it is impossible for them to act carefully. Few people didn't know Song Yuan's feats in Beijing.
Mrs. Zheng's daughter saw that her mother did not touch Lv Erniang at all, and was ridiculed by Huo Qingqing's wet nurse, so she also hated Lv Erniang. She knew that she was a junior and could not sit with her elders, so she put her mind on Chaoxia. But who is Chaoxia? How could she suffer a secret loss? Instead, she let Mrs. Zheng 'stealing the chicken and eat a handful of rice', making a fool of the little women. Huo Qingqing didn't want to let her go. He mocked her. Therefore, Mrs. Zheng hated Chaoxia and the Lv family to the bone.
"When I came out of Wenfu, I saw the look in the eyes of the mother and daughter. They won't just forget it." Chaoxia looked outside the house and then at Lv Xianger. Her voice was lower: "I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid that they will hurt my adopty mother and you."
"They can't think about it." After listening to Chaoxia's words, Lv Hong's eyes appeared with a cruel look that had never been seen before. He said in a low voice, "I'm going to discuss the wedding date with Mr. Song today. When the trial list is released, it will be the day when A Niang gets married to the government. As for Xiang'er, with me, no one can hurt my sister..."
