But She’s So Charming

When Tang Wu heard that Cheng Xi was here, she quickly tidied up her clothes.

Thinking of crying just now, he pressed his eyes against the bronze mirror with both hands, and then walked out.

Cheng Xi sat in the pavilion outside the courtyard properly, holding a peach-pink veil in her hand, and a small face covered with sadness.

Tang Wu walked to her and sat down, and said softly, "What's wrong with the second sister?"

When Cheng Xi saw Tang Wu, tears flowed. "Big sister, father... and mother... are quarreling again..." Cheng Xi cried and trembled. Although she said intermittently, Tang Wu still understood. NS.

To put it bluntly, it was the Yang family and Cheng Maozhi, who had quarreled again because of Cheng Xi's marriage.

Cheng Maozhi fell in love with the Gu family's Dalang. The Gu family was not low in the court, and was a family of military commanders. It stands to reason that it matches Cheng Xi's identity perfectly, but somehow, the Yang family just said that they didn't agree with anything, Cheng Maozhi I wondered for a long time, only to find out yesterday that it turned out that the Yang family wanted Cheng Xi to marry.

Most people in Beijing adhere to the principle of marrying males with low marriages and women with high-quality marriages, but Yang’s approach is the other way around. She doesn’t look at Gu Jiadalang, who is right in the door. She actually fell in love with Liu Qishu, a scholar from a poor background. The staff is in the post, but this person is not good at first, and his family is not obvious. It can be said that he has no comparison with the young master of the Gu family. It can be described as a heaven and an underground.

But Yang did this, of course, for her reasons, except that Maozhi couldn't guess the reason.

Recently, because of Suiniang and Cheng Tie's affairs, Cheng Maozhi has always felt sorry for the Yang family. Therefore, Cheng Maozhi saw that the Yang family was so strong this time, and did not lose his temper. He just lowered his posture and asked why.

After all, no one who is a mother will pit the flesh that falls from her body.

The Yang thought for a long time, and finally told the truth, but the truth was offensive, and Cheng Maozhi angrily split a table on the spot.

Yang said that Liu Qishu is a poor family, but it is because he is decent. She sent someone to inquire about Liu Qishu, who is more than twenty years old and there is no girl around him. If Cheng Xidi marries her, the government will support Liu again. Home, the future will not be too bad.

In fact, Yang's idea is not difficult to understand. It is like an emperor marrying a princess. I will give you glory and wealth, and give you the position of a horse, and all you have to do is to thank the graphic report.

After all, the Cheng family is not a royal family, and can't handle the noble family. That's why Liu Qishu, who came from a humble background, was in the eyes of the Yang family.

But the truth is nothing more than telling others. Yang's speaking in front of Cheng Maozhi is no different from slapping him. Otherwise, Cheng Maozhi would not be able to put a set of twelve auspicious cups. It was all smashed, and with red eyes he asked Yang if he was his eldest wife, and now regretted it.

The quarrel was so fierce that the old lady was alarmed yesterday, and Yang was called for questioning this morning.

Tang Wu sighed, "Second sister, what do you think about yourself?" Although this important marriage event is usually more important in terms of the parents’ destiny and the matchmaker’s words, but the family like the Cheng family, the daughter’s family, and the parents are also more important. Will worry about it.

"Big sister, my mother said that the physical grievances suffered by a woman in this life are not a grievance, but what she fears most is her heartache." In fact, these words are really from the heart of the Yang family. After all, Cheng Maozhi had commanded the guard. The year of the border checkpoint was accompanied by the Yang family.

No one knows what life has passed through the border.

There were no brocade clothes, no delicacies, only biting cold wind, and white-bladed arrows. Yang was spoiled and spoiled. When he entered the Northland, he not only suffered from frostbite, but also suffered a sword injury, but she never complained. pass.

Even, she has always felt that such a day is what she dreams of.

At this time, Cheng Xi leaned to Tang Wu's ear and whispered quietly: "Big sister, if your future husband also takes in the concubine room, what shall you do?"

This can be regarded as a question to Tang Wu.

But it may also be that Tang Wu's identity was too low, so when Cheng Xi said these things, to be honest, she could hardly empathize with her, even in Tang Wu's eyes, men who did not accept concubines were rare in the world. .

She really didn't think about this issue.

Cheng Xi shook Tang Wu's arm again, and asked again: "If one day comes, will the eldest sister drink that sip of tea peacefully?"

After hearing this, Tang Wu followed in his mind for a moment. If His Royal Highness also accepted the concubine's room... Then... I can't allow her to refuse.

After a while, Tang Wu nodded thoughtfully and said: "Yes." Then at Shang Cheng Xi's surprised gaze, he said: "Although I don't ask him to be alone in the yard, but... I also hope that he loves the one most. It's me."

Cheng Xi looked at Tang Wu, and suddenly realized that this person is really different from others. She couldn't help but laugh at herself: "I don't have the open-mindedness of my big sister. If you ask me to choose, I would like to listen to my mother. "Cheng Xineng's remarks actually have something to do with Suiniang. After all, since she came to the house as Suiniang, although Yang has not been able to wash her face in tears, the smiles in the past are never seen again.

At the same time, Xiaofang's Suiniang was also considering Cheng Yu's marriage.

Suiniang picked up a lotus-colored pleated skirt, walked in front of Cheng Yu, and asked, "How about this one?"

"Mother, forget it." Cheng Yu irritably closed the broken hair of the temples.

"What's the matter with your child, my mother has told you several times, this time I came back to marry, how can you give me the hypocrisy!" Sui Niang was so angry that she threw the skirt onto the bed.

Cheng Yu said in a low voice: "Mother, those rich and powerful in the capital, all have eyes above the top. Mother just dressed me as a flower, and I can't compare to the big sister."

"You compare her with her. Mother has heard that your eldest sister's talents are definitely not as outstanding as you."

"My mother had only learnt from me before and lost to a good skin. How come it has changed again today?" In Cheng Yu's eyes, Tang Wu's face really crushed her.

Suiniang pushed Cheng Yu's temple with her index finger and said, "In two days, the hunting will be set up by Your Majesty today. Do you know how many ladies are staring at this opportunity? In order to let you go, my mother has knees. Kneeling green, let’s say nothing else, just say the Cuju game hosted by the long-time father, a Cuju game, you will get acquainted with His Royal Highness Ying and heroes like Ning Guohou. Don’t seize this opportunity. Sure, is your mind flooded?"

"Mother! There is no one in King Ying's eyes. The big sister looks so good. I didn't even look at him. On the contrary, there was a girl in Anjia who was very courteous. It is estimated that the Anjia girl is definitely going to marry high, and I leaned forward to make a joke."

"Who said that it is His Royal Highness Ying! His Royal Highness Ying is noble, even if you climb high, you may not climb it. Mother said, it is the Ning Guohou Shizi." Suiniang said bitterly.

"Then Ning Shizi is already the eldest sister in the match, and everyone knows about this. How can I work hard?"

"Although he is the eldest girl, but what happened? He was not rejected by your elder mother! Since he refused, then you have a chance."

When these words came out, Cheng Ting couldn't help thinking about it, "Mother knows why the eldest mother refused this marriage?"

Sui Niang sneered, "That's the elder son of Ning Guohou's Mansion. As long as you marry the past, then you will be the future Mrs. Hou. If this kind of marriage is not enough to make your eldest mother tempted, then their big room will have been there for a long time. Other plans! But, it’s none of your business. All you need to know is that a woman who marries is a second reincarnation. If you don’t want to make progress, like your second sister, you’re a brainless person and want to marry to a poor family. , After suffering, there is no chance to go back!"

With that said, Suiniang walked behind Cheng Yu, and re-inserted her steps, saying each word: "Yu Yu, your father and your aunt are arguing these two days. If there is anything wrong with your knowledge, If you understand, go and ask your father, don't know that you are stupid in the house all day long. Also, if my mother asked you, Ning Guohou Shizi will also go to this hunt."

At the mention of Ning Guohou Shizi, Cheng Yu's face turned red after all.

I have to say that Ning Ye's appearance is the best among all the men in the capital. Whether it is appearance or the romantic energy of his body, it is extremely attractive.

It is true that the so-called little girl who is more indifferent, wants to make the prodigal look back.

Cheng Yu held Suiniang's hands on her shoulders, and said timidly, "If it's Ning Shizi, why don't you look down on me?"

Suiniang smiled, "As long as you figure it out, mother naturally has a mother's way." After speaking, Suiniang lowered her head and whispered in Cheng Yu's ear.

After listening to Sui Niang's words, Cheng Wei immediately stood up in shock, "Mother, did you want me to harm myself?"

Suiniang gave her a "hush" gesture, and then said: "You give me a little voice! There are so many eyes in this big family. If it is self-defeating, we can't bear the consequences. "

Cheng Yu said worriedly: "Mother, I really don't dare. If this matter is told to my father, he will punish me."

Suiniang thought for a moment, and sighed: "When you were young before, I would naturally not tell you this, but there are some things you should know. Protactinaceae, Yiniang's background, should have been married to a merchant. , Or marrying an equivalent family, and living a life in peace. If I had not had you back then, I would never be able to be an outside room for someone like your dad. Do you really think that your dad is the dudes outside? ?"

Cheng Yu bit her lip, "How did my mother do it?"

"Back then, your father came to see me with a box full of banknotes and said I'm sorry. As long as I drink that bowl of soup, he will give me a lot of glory and wealth. This is the first time for my mother to see so many banknotes. It’s not indifferent, but I know that once I drink the soup, your father will never come again. For you, I have tolerated it for more than ten years. I never even asked your father to be famous. Copies, not even once."

"Protactinium protactinium, you are in a much better situation than your mother back then. Don't look at your father being harsh on you, but no matter what, he won't let you make small children."

After hearing this, Cheng Yu thought for a long time.

——

The 20th of the twelfth lunar month is the day to go hunting in the suburbs of Beijing.

Emperor Jiaxuan issued the imperial decree early in the morning to prepare the guards.

The army lined up with the army in the sky and the army. Under the leadership of General Yang Guang, his majesty, with his concubines, food and other items, traveled with the army and surrounded a hunting ring in the suburbs of Beijing.

As soon as Tang Wu stepped out of the carriage, he saw King Ying standing not far away under the banner of a banner, with a white falcon that the nobles in the capital were willing to raise by his side.

But standing beside the white falcon was the "candidate" Princess Ying An Jin.

"Cousin, does this eagle bite?" An Jin said softly from the side.

Before Wang Ying answered, he saw Tang Wu coldly hooking his lower lip, and then softened his throat, and yelled, "Brother."

Cheng Yu was called a Ji Ling, and immediately put down the bow and arrow in her hand, and quickly said: "What's the matter, concubine?"
