Ren Yaoqi looked at Ren Yaohua in surprise: "Third cousin? Does he have something to do with me?"
Seeing Ren Yaoqi's expression, Ren Yaohua seemed to be really ignorant, and turned his eyes away: "How do I know. I must have seen you rarely appear in my grandmother's yard, so I asked casually."
Ren Yaoqi smiled and said, "The third cousin has always been polite."
Ren Yaohua rubbed his teacup, lowered his head and thought for a while, then glanced at Ren Yaoqi again, his slightly frowning brows seemed to be thinking about something.
"What's wrong? Third sister?" When it was rare to meet Ren Yaohua's reconciliation, Ren Yaoqi smiled and stretched out his palm and shook it in front of her.
Ren Yaohua was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help staring at Ren Yaoqi.
This was the first time Ren Yaoqi had done such an intimate gesture in front of her, and she was a little uncomfortable.
Ren Yaoqi's smile didn't change, and he turned his head slightly to look at her: "What do you think about?"
Ren Yaohua originally wanted to say, "What are you doing!" But for some reason, the words turned into a sentence: "Grandma seems to intend to marry the fourth sister to the Qiu family."
As soon as she said this, she was stunned, and involuntarily reached out her finger and touched her lips.
It stands to reason that this kind of unfounded and unfounded remarks are related to the marriage of the girl's family. Even if she knows about it, she should not say it, and she should tell her sister who has never been compatible with her.
Ren Yaoqi was also a little surprised, she didn't expect to hear such a thing from Ren Yaohua.
However, the Ren family wanted to marry the Qiu family in the last life. The old man and Mrs. Ren were indeed planning to marry the fourth young lady, Ren Yaoyin, who was born by the eldest grandfather, to the eldest son Qiu of the next patriarch of the Qiu family. Yun.
It's just that the marriage between the two of them in the last life didn't work out for some reason.
And Ren Yaoyin seemed to be a concubine for Yun Wenting, the eldest son of the Yun family.
It's just that in the previous life, there were two candidates for Qiu Yun's fiancee, one was the fourth young lady Ren Yaoyin, and the other was Ren Yaohua. Because both of them are direct descendants, and they are the most suitable age for Qiu Yun among the daughters of the Ren family, and they are the two granddaughters that Mrs. Ren likes most.
As far as he knew, the old lady Ren seemed to like Ren Yaohua more.
At the critical moment, the "Han Yunqian" Cheng Yaojin came out halfway. Ren Shimin liked Han Yunqian very much, and before discussing with the elders of the Ren family, he first proposed marriage to the Han family. In the end, the Ren family felt that it was not a disadvantage to marry Ren Yaohua to Han Yunqian, the only son of the Han family, and agreed. And Ren Yaoyin was assigned to Qiu Yun.
The marriage of the Han family has not yet been seen in this life. Did the Ren family choose Ren Yaoyin for Qiu Yun's fiancee? According to the ranking, Ren Yaohua's marriage should have been proposed in advance, right
Thinking of this, Ren Yaoqi looked at Ren Yaohua: "Why did you suddenly mention the marriage of the fourth sister?"
Only then did Ren Yaohua think that it would be embarrassing for the two of them to talk about these things in private, and there was an uncomfortable look on his face, but seeing Ren Yaoqi's serious and calm look, Ren Yaohua didn't want to be short in front of this sister. .
So she reluctantly calmed her face and said as if nothing had happened: "The second aunt came over to the house in the morning and brought up the second brother's marriage. The eldest aunt happened to be there, so she discussed with her grandmother to say kiss to the third brother. The aunt went around the fourth sister again. The grandmother said that the fourth sister should not be in a hurry beforehand. She knew what to do. At this time, the second aunt mentioned the Qiu family. I was in the warm pavilion with the fourth sister. These words. Later, I saw the fourth sister also came out, and I left with her if I couldn’t listen to it any longer. But I didn’t hear the rebuttals from my grandmother and aunt at the time, so I think the second aunt was right.”
Their grandfather Ren Yonghe and their great-uncle Ren Yongxiang are the direct branches of the Ren family and live in the main house of the Ren family.
Ren Yonghe and Ren Yongxiang also have several brothers from concubines, who have already left the house to go to the order, and the brothers and sisters from those cousins are not in the same ranking as them. .
The second aunt was the wife of the head of the Dongfu family separated by a wall. She was the eldest daughter-in-law of their uncle. She was born in the Su family in Yunyang City.
The second brother, Ren Yilin, is the concubine of the second uncle. The second aunt, Mrs. Su, has no son, only a daughter, Ren Yaoting, who ranks seventh in the Ren family. However, the Su family is a generous person. He has given several concubines to his second uncle, and has two sons by concubines.
The Su family has a prominent family background and a reputation for being virtuous. Therefore, although she has no son, she is in a much better situation than the third wife, Li, who is also childless.
"Isn't the second brother's fiancee still in the period of filial piety?" Ren Yaoqi asked casually.
She remembered that Ren Yilin's marriage was decided two years ago, and it was the second daughter of a Juren named Liu in Jizhou, which was considered a good marriage.
The wedding date was originally scheduled for April this year, but it happened that the grandfather of Ren Yilin's fiancee passed away in the first month of the year, and he had to be filial for a year, and Liu Juren just spent money to make up for the lack of a general sentence in Mozhou, because his father died and took office. Dingyou went home in less than two months.
Misfortunes do not come singly. A few days ago, news came from Jizhou that Liu Juren's father went out to drink flower wine with his friends before his filial piety. In the end, in order to avoid acquaintances, he panicked and fell into the river and drowned.
Miss Liu's one-year period of filial piety has not yet passed, and the three-year filial piety is coming again.
Ren Yilin is seventeen this year, and Miss Liu is sixteen this year.
"The slaves heard that the East Mansion was already falling apart, and Aunt Yuan ran to the second master and the second wife every day to cry. She said that Miss Liu had a bad life, and she killed her grandfather and wife before marrying into the Ren family. Father, is a broom star, clamoring to break off the marriage for the second master."
The one who answered was Wujing, the maid next to Ren Yaohua. She knew these things better than the two masters, so she couldn't help but interrupt.
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Ren Yaohua nervously, fearing that she would blame her for being talkative and unruly.
Although Ren Yaohua frowned, he didn't say anything and just lowered his head to drink tea.
Ren Yaoqi smiled at the turnip.
Turnip breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Ren Yaohua did not stop her from continuing to speak, and the fifth young lady also wanted to listen, she continued happily: "Second wife has always treated the second and fourth young masters like herself, and now she is naturally the same. Anxious. Although our Ren family is divided into two houses, the old man and the old lady of the west house are the masters of the major affairs. So the second old lady of the east house condemned the second wife to ask the old lady for advice. "
When Ren Yaoqi heard the words, he just lowered his head and smiled.
In fact, Mrs. Liao, the old lady of the East Mansion, and Mrs. Qiu, the old lady of the West Mansion, didn't get along when they were young. In other matters, Mrs. Liao wished that she could make a clear distinction between the West Mansion and the West Mansion. But this kind of thing that needs to go against her faith, she naturally hopes that the West House can help her make up her mind, so she asked the second wife to come to the Qiu family.
At this time, everyone in the Ren family should hope to break off the marriage with the Liu family. The girl from the Liu family was originally attracted by the Ren family only because of the status of Miss Liu's father. Before Liu Juren was able to find a position to pass the sentence, the Ren family contributed a lot.
The Ren family started out as a businessman, and they will be rewarded for how much they invest.
Now that Liu Juren, the "creative talent" is dead, and the Liu family has nothing else to use, this marriage has lost its value.
Ren Yaoqi remembered that the marriage of the Liu family in the last life finally retired, but that Miss Liu was also a strong woman. He committed suicide shortly after being divorced.
Thinking of this, Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but look at Ren Yaohua.
The Ren family regards the women of other families as things, and abandons them if they want to, but in the end, does the retribution come to them, the innocent women of the Ren family
"What's wrong?" Ren Yaohua frowned when he saw Ren Yaoqi looking at him in a daze.
Ren Yaoqi came back to his senses: "Oh, I was thinking that the Miss Liu family is really pitiful."
Ren Yaohua was silent for a while after hearing the words, and said softly: "There is more than one poor woman in this world, Miss Liu family? It depends on the fate. What if the fate is not good?"
Ren Yaohua's voice was vaguely melancholy, and she didn't know whether she thought of her mother Li's hard struggles in Ren's inner courtyard over the years or her unknown future destiny.
Ren Yaoqi looked at Ren Yaohua with a complicated expression.
She originally believed in fate, but in this life, she didn't want to believe it.
