Eldest daughter

Chapter 348
On the way back to Changle Town, Wang Yuan'er was depressed all the way, Cui Yuan couldn't understand, but because of Sujuan's presence, it was inconvenient for him to ask more questions.

When the carriage stopped in front of Wang's house, Sujuan got out of the carriage, and without waiting for her to extend her hand, Wang Yuan'er jumped out of the carriage and walked into the house.

"Hey, you should be more careful..." Cui Yuan frowned, Wang Yuan'er had already walked away before he finished speaking.

Cui Yuan frowned tightly, got out of the car, looked at Zhao Dali who was also standing there in a daze, and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

After returning from the county office, he didn't say much, and he was in a very gloomy mood.

Zhao Dali glanced at him, but didn't reply, but the meaning in that eye was very clear, you don't know, how do I know, we have been together all the time.

Cui Yuan watched him follow into the house, and could only look at Sujuan at the end: "What's wrong with your girl? But what went wrong at the banquet?"

Sujuan shook her head, and said with some hesitation: "It seems that the girl heard something unpleasant." She bowed her knees and saluted and went into the room.

Wang Yuan'er was indeed a little depressed, no one could remain completely indifferent to those gossips, especially those who still grabbed her mother to talk about the matter.

The widow's eldest daughter lacked education, Wang Yuan'er pursed her lips.

"Big sister, you're back so early, how fun is the banquet?" Seeing her, Wang Qing'er flew over and followed Wang Lan'er behind her.

"Elder Sister, Third Sister just went with us to build a snowman in the back, and even threw snowballs for fun." Lan'er blinked her big eyes and said with a charming and authentic face.

No wonder both of them had snow on their heads. Wang Yuaner stretched out her hand to pat it, and said angrily, "It's so cold, you still play with this, don't you think it's too cold? Look at this snow, don't melt into your clothes, don't cry when it's freezing. .”

Wang Laner giggled.

"You too, you are about to be engaged, and you are still playing with making snowmen, so you are not ashamed." Wang Yuan'er helped Lan'er pat the snow off her body, and then gave Wang Qing'er another look.

"Oh, big sister, you can have fun when you are a girl, but if you get married in the future, how can you play?" Wang Qing'er said indifferently.

Wang Yuaner was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "That's true."

Girls are more comfortable when they are at home, but once they get married, they are not so casual.

"That's the case, and it can't be too wild. Who do you think I was looking at in the county government today?" Wang Yuan'er asked Lan'er to find Aunt Cai to make some ginger soup and drink to drive away the cold, and she dragged Wang Qing'er into the room. out of the house to talk.

"Who?"

"It's Mrs. Yan. It turns out that she has a deep friendship with the county magistrate's wife. She said that she will come to our house as a guest in a few days." Wang Yuan'er looked at her with a smile.

Come to visit?
Wang Qing'er was stunned for a while, but didn't realize it for a while, and after turning her head in a circle, she realized what it meant, and her face instantly turned red!
"Well, come and come, it doesn't mean anything." She lowered her head, pulled out the handkerchief from her waist and twisted it, biting her lip slightly.

"Why, are you shy?" Wang Yuan'er looked at her and said with a smile: "If there are no accidents when they come this time, they will probably propose marriage soon, Qing'er, have you thought about it?"

Wang Qing'er's face became more and more red, she stood up, and shyly said: "What's there to think about, as long as the elder sister thinks it is good." After finishing speaking, she ran out.

"Hey, this girl..." Wang Yuan'er raised her hand and shook her head. She felt slightly relaxed. It seemed that this girl didn't resist. If the Yan family proposed marriage, it should be settled.

Wang Qing'er ran to the snowman she made in the backyard, squatted down and held her chin, thinking about what the elder sister said, her face was hot.

She really didn't have anything to resist in her heart, if she settled down, it would be a big deal.

……

knock knock.

Wang Yuan'er was still thinking about Wang Qing'er, when there was a knock on the door, and when he opened it, it was Cui Yuan.

She glanced at it, and it was already dark, so she couldn't help frowning: "It's getting dark, you haven't returned to the yamen?"

"You have something in your heart, how can I go back?" Cui Yuan wanted to enter the house.

"Hey, you go out." Wang Yuan'er stopped him, and said, "Look at the sky, just enter my house like this, and spread the word, do I still want to see anyone? Get out quickly, so that no one will say that I and you are not clear It’s unclear.”

Cui Yuan paused and looked at her: "Did someone piss you off today?"

Is it her right and wrong?

Wang Yuan'er said angrily: "Whoever gives me a break is right. I am not married or engaged to you, but I follow you in and out. I have no scruples. If others say gossip, they are right. I don't know. It’s not white, and I don’t know what it is.”

In these words, there is resentment.

"Blame me?" Cui Yuan raised her chin.

Wang Yuan'er slapped his hand off, supported the door frame with one hand, tapped the floor tiles with his toes, and bowed his head in silence.

Saying resentment, when people say that, after all, there is some resentment after all. May I ask which woman does not want to marry the person she loves, and walks with him in front of others, going in and out of various places, instead of like this , They have scruples, even if they did not do something out of line, but in the eyes of others, they are not clear.

It's nice to say behind the scenes, but on the surface, they are nothing.

So, she is complaining.

"What a silly girl." Seeing that she was silent, Cui Yuan rubbed the top of her head and said, "Trust me, I won't let you be wronged."

Wang Yuan'er raised her head, a little depressed, she wanted to say something, but she was defeated by his gaze after all, and said: "I don't want to say anymore, I'm a little tired, so I won't greet you, you can do it yourself." Close the door in his face.

As soon as the door was closed, her tears fell uncontrollably.

She stubbornly wiped away her tears, secretly blaming herself at this age for being petty after hearing a few gossips from others. At the beginning, she still thought about not marrying like this. What is wrong now? up?
Is it because once a woman has expectations, will she be swayed by them?
What if, as they said, Cui Yuan and her could not get together in the end, then?
Wang Yuan'er shook her head, sniffed her nose, forced herself not to think about these miscellaneous things, and walked into the dormitory.

Cui Yuan, who has been standing outside the door, has clear eyes and ears, how could he not hear her crying inside?

He frowned, pursed his lips into a straight line, and turned to leave.

……

Wang Yuan'er is not a person who hurts the spring and autumn, she still has a lot of things to do, so she quickly put aside the gossip she heard yesterday.

The day after the banquet, Mrs. Yan sent someone to send a post, saying that she would come to visit on November 29th.

It's not three days away.

Wang Yuan'er first replied to Mrs. Yan's post, saying that she was waiting for her to come back, and then went to the old house to tell Mrs. Wang about it.

Although their eldest room has been separated, the elders have to take care of the children's marriage. Wang Yuan'er is also an unmarried young girl. Regarding Qing'er's marriage, it is inconvenient for her to come forward alone. If she can ask the elders to take care of it, then naturally she has to go please.

They don't have their parents, but they still have grandpa and grandma. Now it's only Mrs. Yan's visit. In the future, when it's time to get engaged, the elders will have to take care of it.

"Father and mother have already left, but grandpa and grandma are all here. The engagement still depends on you two elders." Wang Yuan'er said to Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Zhang, who was sitting beside me cracking melon seeds, curled up one corner of her mouth proudly, and said, "Look, at the critical moment, you still have to rely on your own people. Back then, you..."

Mrs. Wang's eye knife flew over.

Mrs. Zhang was stabbed by that cold gaze, and her words choked in her throat.

Wang Yuan'er glanced at her lightly, and said, "Second Aunt feels tired, and I didn't expect Second Aunt to help me with anything." It would be a waste of help if I didn't help.

Mrs. Zhang snorted.

"So, Mrs. Yan came to be a guest, so she has a good idea of ​​this look?" Mrs. Wang ignored Mrs. Zhang and asked Wang Yuan'er directly.

"It's not considered accurate, but it's still a little bit of a slap in the face. If it is accurate or not, it will naturally be counted when the matchmaker comes to the door." Wang Yuan'er laughed.

"That's true. It's not accurate at all. It's not easy to talk about it outside, lest heretics don't know the reason and talk nonsense." Mrs. Wang nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Zhang said sourly: "It doesn't matter whether you are sure or not, it's all about you and me, and it's just one of ten strokes. Qing'er is really lucky, and it's hard for us to be safe."

"What's the matter with Guan Fuquan? Everything can be involved, why don't you go to a big show?" Mrs. Wang said to her angrily.

"You can't say that, mother, the conditions of the Mo family were very good back then, and the young master Mo was also born with a good-looking talent, and they are all similar people. If we marry the Mo family, then the daughter of the Mo family will also marry into our family. It's gone!" Zhang yelled.

"You still have the face to mention the Mo family? Then you don't know who the Mo family is? If the marriage fails at one end, the girl will be married far away to fill the house at the other end, just for the benefit of words. Hmph, it's really like this If the family is married, I don’t even know when it will be sold!" Mrs. Wang sneered.

Mrs. Zhang was a little unconvinced, and retorted: "Then they won't just wait forever. The Mo family is not good, but the Yan family is good? He is a scholar, how many books has Qing'er studied? Married to the past , who knows if I will be blindsided!"

"That's enough!" Mrs. Wang roared, and said coldly: "It's rare for a niece to have a good future, so you just say something bad. Are you the second aunt like you? Go, get out, don't poke your eyes and nose here !"

Zhang was angry: "I just reminded you, you blame me too, don't say I didn't remind you in the future, scholars, you have gone out of your mind, hum!" She flicked her veil and snorted He hummed and walked out.

The hand of Mrs. Wang pointing at her trembled: "This damn woman is becoming more and more rampant. I think she wants to piss me off and kill her!"

Wang Yuan'er was also very unhappy in her heart, it was the time of joy, who would like to hear the words of bad luck?
But she also had to comfort Mrs. Wang with a few words: "Second Aunt has always been like this, if you take her seriously, it's a real loss, just treat her as farting."

Mrs. Wang took a few breaths, tried her best to exclude Mrs. Zhang's words, and discussed with Wang Yuaner about meeting the guests.
