The year before last, the old man of the Ao family came to visit with his juniors. Although because of the separation of the Sheng family, he invited them back after only a few months of staying.
But during the commotion in the garden, Sheng Lanci and his wife asked about the coal miner at the time, but later they had their own spies - after all, as the principals of the Sheng family, they would be useless if they didn't even know what was going on in their own garden. .
Does Sheng Lanci know that Ao Luanjing seems to be interested in Sheng Shuihe? Because of this, she was jealous of Xuan Yu Zhiyu. Because within two months, the girl went back with Mrs. Ao, and now They didn't even visit anymore, so Dong asked Sheng Sleeping He privately. Sheng Sleeping He made it clear that Luo Hua wanted to be ruthless, so Sheng Lanci didn't take it to heart.
After all, Sheng Suihe is not Sheng Lanci's biological son. Sheng Lanci's son's marriage is definitely not as important as his biological daughter Sheng Weiqiao's. In the past two years, Sheng Weiqiao also denied marriage proposals, and Sheng Lanci had no time to look for a son-in-law. , how can I have time to think about my daughter-in-law
Secondly, after Sheng Suihe's consecutive provincial examinations, Sheng Lanci, like Mrs. Sheng, also hoped that he could win three yuan in a row - then, Sheng Suihe's wife selection does not need to be limited to Nanfeng County, and he can look across the board. Chang'an Gaomen.
Sheng Lanci asked Sheng Suihe to be her daughter's supporter in the future, so she naturally supported him in marrying a noble girl. In this way, after her daughter leaves the cabinet, her parents' family will be rich, her brother will be able to work, and her sister-in-law will be born in a noble family, even if her husband's family is not. She is great, so don’t underestimate her!
And the Ao family, who was born in Ao Luanjing, is not as good as the Sheng family. Judging from her sour and jealous behavior even before she and Sheng Suihe settle down, she is not a generous person - in case of marriage. Later, even the sister-in-law could not tolerate Dong Dong and instigated Sheng Sleeping He to treat Sheng Weiqiao badly. How could Sheng Lanci accept it
Although Mrs. Sheng now wants to match up not only Sheng Suihe and Ao Luanjing, but Sheng Weide and Ao Luanjing, it's just that Sheng Lanci doesn't know that Ao Luanjing once admired Sheng Suihe. Since he knows, please remind him. Yidong, the old man, lest the old man go to the Ao family to propose marriage without knowing what was going on, it would be a big deal if it didn't work out. After the success, Ao Luanjing's heart was Han in Cao Ying, and the brotherhood between Sheng Weide and Sheng Suihe was ruined. Please ask for life!
After all, Sheng Lan ordered Sheng Suihe to pretend to be a member of the Sheng family, not only so that she would have someone to take care of her daughter after the death of her husband and wife, but also to entrust such a big business to her.
Naturally, I don’t want Sheng Suihe to have any bad blood with the real Sheng family children.
"That girl is He'er?" Mrs. Sheng was shocked when he heard this, but after thinking about it, he sighed, "No, although De'er's appearance is beautiful, it is far less elegant and smooth than He'er. What's more, De'er's beauty Although her temperament is honest and kind, it is really not easy for girls to like her - what about He'er, a girl from the Ao family?"
Sheng Lanci hurriedly said: "After Hai'er learned about this, Xi Dong asked He'er, and He'er said that he was wrong that the girls of the Ao family have always treated each other with courtesy, and there was absolutely no other intention!"
He then said euphemistically, "Speaking of which, those confinement children were gone very often. The reason why they knew about this was probably because in those days, the old lady of the Xuanyu family had her husband's daughter-in-law, She'er, at the door to express condolences to her two younger siblings. The foreign maid followed She'er and bumped into He'er in the fake Shantung of the garden, so she said a few words. After the girl from the Ao family found out, she stood up despite the discomfort and rushed over to humiliate Xuan Yu. The family's concubine, Guainan and Wu'er were present at the time and couldn't hold her back. Didongren was afraid that it would cause some trouble. After the funeral of the second brother and sister, the guests who came over to express their condolences saw the excitement and did not dare to hide it. Then report it to the child!"
"Is that so?" Mrs. Sheng knew what her son meant. Does Ao Luanjing have a jealous temper, or a good temper, or that sentence: If a jealous and indulgent granddaughter is the granddaughter of the old man, the old man will always have a psychological problem. Are you considerate enough? Children are not sensible. Even if they grow up, our girl has always been spoiled and has a temper. What's wrong
A little temper will prevent you from being bullied!
Otherwise, if you are like a jewel at home, you will be inferior to others when you leave the cabinet - why? !
But now that his granddaughter is hard to take care of, the old man inevitably wants to back off: Such a shrewd girl will definitely bully his grandson after she gets married!
In particular, Sheng Weide had always given the impression of being honest and honest to his elders. How could he suppress such an overbearing wife like Ao Luanjing
The old man immediately gave up the idea of marrying again with the Ao family, and said sarcastically, "I wonder if Lao Ao saw his daughter suffered a loss back then, so he changed his approach because of his granddaughter's teachings - that girl's aunt, my former wife If that sister-in-law is really virtuous and virtuous, why would she criticize Lance for being so wicked and blind and letting her down?"
I begged Ao Luanjing not to enter the Sheng family. Sheng Lan asked the girl if she was not hostile. At this moment, she also followed the words of Mr. Sheng and said: "Girls in the Gu family must have some temper to ask for advice, otherwise they will leave the court." After that, it doesn't matter if the husband is a good one, but if the elders look away and pick up a girl who is golden and jade, but the outside is ruined, the girl is too weak. Wouldn't she have to suffer all kinds of injustice? It’s also true that his son’s temperament is too soft, so we have to find him a wife who understands the general situation. Girls from the Ao family may have a bad temper, but they lack some decency in doing things, but they are not very appropriate. "
The old man nodded, stopped mentioning the Ao family, and started discussing girls from other families with Sheng Lanci.
Although the Sheng family did not want to get married to the Ao family again, the Ao family sent another message saying that they wanted to visit in two days. The reason was that Mrs. Ao heard that Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xiahou had come to the Sheng Mansion, and wanted to come over. Get together and reminisce about the past together.
Old Mrs. Sheng and Mr. Xu naturally expressed their welcome, and they did. After all, Pao Ze, who had lived and died together when they were young, had rarely seen each other since he was discharged and returned to the field. At their age, this kind of reunion is unlikely to happen again and again. While feeling sad, they cherish it even more.
Mr. Ao did not bring his son and wife with him on this trip - his sons and daughters-in-law all asked the person in charge of the family to apologize at home because he had done something wrong to the Sheng family. In order to show his sincerity, the head of the family and his wife must not be absent. That was an unusual gathering of old friends, so there was no need to drag them along.
Bu Nao Xu Fou heard that Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xiahou had brought their grandson Xu Baomo with them, so Mr. Ao also brought his two grandchildren, Ao Luan Xiao and Ao Luan Jing.
Two years have passed, and the brother and sister have both grown taller. Ao Luan Xiao's eyebrows have gained a bit of calmness, and Ao Luan Jing has become more beautiful and attractive.
Wearing a green and yellow dogwood pattern embroidered wide sleeves with folded collar, paired with an oily green four-in-one Ruyi pattern Tianhua brocade skirt, a duck egg green embroidered silk belt with entwining flowers tied around the waist, and an arm holding a blue bottom sash with four seasons floral crepe Wearing silk, the skin becomes more like snow, the cheeks look like peach blossoms, and the eyes are full of autumn water.
Its brightness made all the other girls of the same age in Songnian Hall in Dongdong, except Sheng Weiqiao with exquisite features, look eclipsed. The few pretty maids who were originally pretty, all Dongdong consciously lowered his eyes and lowered his eyes, feeling dirty.
While talking about the current situation with Mr. Ao and Mr. Xu, who came to accompany the guests, Mr. Sheng in the hall secretly regretted: "That girl is really good-looking. If her temperament were more dignified and generous, it would be right for He'er to think about it. How good is that?"
Ao Luanjing didn't know what Mrs. Sheng was thinking. She held a longevity tea bowl with pink and green glaze and five blessings painted with gold. She sipped the light blue tea soup gracefully and tried hard to suppress her excitement: "It's been two years!!! I never expected it. There is a good chance of coming to the Sheng family again, but it must be a gift from heaven. He will definitely get his wish that time!"
The reason why she has not left the cabinet until now is not entirely because of Sheng Sleeping Crane - after all, after she was hurriedly brought back to the Ao family, although she persisted in writing many letters to Sheng Weiqiao, Sheng Weiqiao replied to the letter, but never mentioned it. If she was allowed to stay in the Sheng Mansion for a while, the host sent by the Sheng family to deliver things to the Ao family would not convey any of Sheng Sleeping Crane's thoughts.
As time passed, Ao Luanjing would come to regret it. Even if Sheng Suihe had a crush on her, it was definitely not deep enough for him to keep thinking about her.
But Sheng Weiqiao was not cooperative at all, so she gradually gave up her mind.
After having seen Sheng Suihe's appearance, when the Ao family told her about people, she couldn't help but compare them to Sheng Suihe - then, naturally, no one would notice.
In particular, Sheng Suihe was the head of the case last year, and next year Lianjie would be released from prison. When the Ao family heard about the news, they naturally asked someone to send gifts to congratulate them. After Ao Luanjing heard about it, he felt unspeakably sad: Such an outstanding person has to be with Don't you have any luck
No one else in the Ao family knew what she was thinking, and only her mother Di knew about it. Di secretly advised her: "Although my grandfather and the old lady of the Sheng family have an old relationship, since the incident with my aunt, the two of them have been separated." We have been estranged for more than ten years. Even if we are moving again now, we cannot compare ourselves to the time when my aunt was just married - our family is not as powerful as the Sheng family, regardless of whether it is powerful or wealthy, and I am not a girl. Forget it, why don’t we take the initiative to recommend me to the Sheng family if we are embarrassed?”
"No, I don't want to think about it anymore. I just want to choose an honest and kind person among the people my father and grandfather chose for me. Isn't it right to live a beautiful life together!"
Ao Luanjing just reluctantly listened to her mother's words, and originally planned to choose a husband. But at that time, Mrs. Ao received news that Mr. Xu and his wife were bringing their grandson to the Sheng Mansion as guests, and he wanted to join in the fun. After Ao Luanjing heard about it, she immediately asked to accompany her grandfather: "Since Wu said goodbye to sister Wei Qiao the year before last, they haven't seen each other again in the past two years!" Even if we occasionally exchange letters, how can it compare to meeting in person? Grandfather asks to go to Sheng Mansion, so take him with you too! "
Mr. Ao didn't agree at first: "The Sheng family didn't have a post to invite you. He was very presumptuous in the past. How intrusive will he be if he brings you here again?"
But Ao Luanjing couldn't help but said: "He is already seventeen years old. I don't know how many days he can stay at home. When I become someone else's daughter-in-law, how will I have the opportunity to be a guest in such a leisurely way? My grandfather treated him as if he loved him at the beginning. Bar!"
After saying that, Mrs. Ao softened his heart, thinking that his granddaughter would be pampered at home. After leaving the palace, even if her husband's family was kind in Dongdu, it would not be as casual as in her parents' family. It would indeed be rare to have the opportunity to visit her friends in the boudoir in the future.
Then he nodded.
Mr. Ao Ao of Bu Nao felt that it would be inappropriate to bring his granddaughter alone at home, and he also hoped that the Ao family could maintain the friendship with the Sheng family and the Xu family, so he brought his eldest grandson Ao Luanxiao with him.
At that time, the three elders had finished talking about the current situation, and the conversation gradually turned to reminiscing about the past. Since the presence of the younger generation was an eyesore and inconvenient for them to show off, and they also wanted to let the descendants continue the friendship between their ancestors, so after seeing that it was almost the same, Old Mrs. Sheng dismissed it. : "Lan Ci and we both have things to do, and Lao Xu and Lao Ao are not outsiders, so we don't need to accompany them there. Let's go and make arrangements on our own! No need for a three-bedroom apartment. He'er and we are young. I wonder if we can't leave here. Let’s go play in the east! Don’t be restrained, just treat yourself like your own family.”
Although Mrs. Ming was not mentioned, she wisely invited Mrs. Xiahou to go to her yard and shut up.
Sheng Lanci and his wife had always had a lot of affairs, and Ao Luanjing had made the decision to deny Sheng Suihe and Sheng Weiqiao. The couple was relieved that Sheng Suihe would not suffer a loss because of the son they met along the way. !
So after walking outside, he said a few words about the situation and left in a hurry.
The rest of Donglai Sheng Sleeping Crane and his group chatted a little about old times and decided to go to the garden as usual - I hope that there are men and women in their group, old and young. There are not many topics for everyone to participate in, so they can go to the garden to spend time. It's time.
Fortunately, since the second room was divided, the Sheng family finally followed the example of the Feng family and the Xuan Yu family and developed family talents.
At that time, they walked for a while in the garden and looked at the scenery and animals. Seeing that the two guests Xu Baomo and Ao Luanjing were a little absent-minded, Sheng Suihe suggested that they go for a walk in the newly built Xiaobi Tower. He went to the east of the building to dance with his family to relieve his boredom.
