six-fingered peasant girl

Chapter 267

General Zhenwei was already engaged, and when these words came out, it was like a thunder on the ground, which shocked people extremely.

The wives sitting upright at the banquet couldn't help whispering to each other, but Madam Guangning Hou's smiling face immediately froze, looking at Madam Anqing Hou, she was very annoyed.

When she originally posted the post, she thought about whether to invite the Anqinghou Mansion. After all, Su Liu's country girl had some friendship with the two young masters in the Anqinghou Mansion, and even Ning Guang and Su Liu's marriage was a The matchmaker of the third son, Song Feibao, naturally knew about Ning Guang's engagement.

But according to the information from the people below, this Su Liu has come to Beijing twice, and he has never visited the Anqinghou Mansion, and he has never posted a post to see Su Liu or anything, so he naturally thinks that the Anqinghou Mansion has neither. Putting her on the mind, naturally there is no need to pay attention to her marriage with Ning Guang.Besides, she, Su Liu, has friendship with people in Anqing Mansion, and it's just a person from the Second Household. The person in charge of the house is An Qinghou from the big house.

But she didn't want to, she underestimated Su Liu, this dog that doesn't bark is the most vicious, and the dog who doesn't make a sound, even used the Fifth Young Master Song to invite Mrs. An Qinghou to speak for her.

"Everyone says that Mrs. Anqinghou is a smart person and very well-informed. This is true. You are the first to know about this thing that the big guys don't know." Princess Yongjun joked with a smile, and looked at Mrs. Guangning Hou said: "You parents, you are really slow. This child is engaged, and you don't know?"

"The city is like what the princess of the county said. The marriage of daughters here has always been the order of the parents. According to the words of the matchmaker, in a family like ours, whoever betroths a child does not know the bottom line. I wish I could find out about the eighteenth generation of my ancestors." I don’t know where it came from, if it’s after Wang Yang’s murderer, then it’s really not a marriage, but a crime.”

Mrs. Guangning Hou sat here in the current position in a mere outer room, and it was not in vain that she pretended to be sad and said: "I won't hide it from you, I heard about Brother Guang two years ago. The child fell in love with a mountain girl outside, and his father scolded him for being stupid. People like us are no more than princes and grandchildren, and they are also nobles. How can we just grab a girl and make an engagement? You say this is not the case. reason?"

All the people sitting here are rich and powerful, even if there are one or two wives from poor families, they are official wives anyway. For marriages between children, they must pay attention to the right family, and they will not get engaged casually, so they also agree with Guang Madam Ning Hou's words.

Seeing this, Mrs. Guangninghou was a little proud. She glanced at Mrs. Anqinghou who was sipping tea with her head bowed down. When we mentioned his engagement, we only thought that he was thinking about it, and we didn't take it seriously when he resigned. After all, we as parents couldn't help him and didn't give him enough heart, so we thought It's just a matter of finding a suitable marriage for him, so I recruited everyone to advise me. What I don't know is that Mrs. An Qinghou said that Brother Guang is engaged, which really surprised me , I don’t know which family’s woman it is?”

Everyone's eyes fell on Mrs. An Qinghou, she paused, put down the tea cup in her hand lightly, and said with a smile: "It's not from any family, it's from Qingzhou, the ancestor's surname is Su, and our second master's family The friendship is good, and she is from a noble family. It is also a coincidence that she has also come to Beijing recently, and today she went to our mansion to talk with the ancestors. I looked at her, but she is a decent and innocent girl. "

Mrs. Guangninghou was very disapproving when she heard it. Up to now, she didn't think that Mrs. Anqinghou was simply talking about this matter, and it was obvious that she wanted to expose the matter of Ning Guang's engagement.

Just about to speak, Mrs. An Qinghou said again: "Before I came, I waited by the ancestor's side for a while to talk with him. Then Miss Su and the general got engaged two years ago. If it wasn't for the general's departure, I guess they got married last year. Our girl, we are going to get married on the [-]th or [-]th, so I can't afford to waste it. She is also stubborn, and she doesn't care about whether the general will go to war or not. She just waits for him to come back and get married, and she is not afraid of herself. Being dragged old."

"From what you say, she's a pretty girl." Mrs. Shen said with a smile.

"That's not true." Mrs. An Qinghou said with a faint smile.

Mrs. Guangning Hou felt as uncomfortable as eating a fly, her face was stiff, the handkerchief in her hand was clenched into a ball, and she said with a stiff smile: "It's no wonder that Mrs. Anqing Hou is well informed. Master Hou and I don't know anything about this marriage." , don’t talk about meeting people, it’s Madam who knows first.”

"No way, I heard from her that she came here last winter, and didn't Fei Geer, who was with us, also visit Lord Hou and his wife? She heard that I was coming, and asked me to say hello to you, saying I am not allowed to summon you, and I dare not disturb you." Mrs. An Qinghou pretended to be surprised.

"There is such a thing?" Princess Yongjun glanced at Mrs. Guangninghou and said, "Since I have met someone, shouldn't I not know about this marriage?"

This is just to say, everyone has seen it before, so if you say you don't know that the two are engaged, you may not be able to justify it, right?
The underlying meaning of these words is, knowing that your son is engaged, do you still want to hold a banquet to find another daughter-in-law?Is it to treat people as fools?
The cold sweat broke out on Madam Guangning Hou's forehead, and seeing many of the ladies present frowned, with uneasy expressions, she couldn't help being very embarrassed, and hated Madam Anqing in her heart.

Before she could reply, Mrs. An Qinghou laughed again and said, "Speaking of which, the general is also very affectionate."

"Oh, how did you say that?" Mrs. Shen asked with great interest.

Mrs. Anqinghou glanced at Mrs. Guangninghou, and said with a smile: "It's not the other way around. It is said that these two people are not married. This person's property and so on must be kept in his own treasury. However, General But he gave all the property in his hand to Miss Nasu, what is it if he is not passionate? This is all the dowry first."

Hearing this, the corners of everyone's mouths twitched slightly, and the people who were already worried were even more depressed. For the sake of love, no matter what the origin of that girl is, she has already shared the property before getting married, even if her own future The daughter married, and there is such a person first, what happiness is there?That's a shame!
"So, it's true that the general is engaged!" A lady said coldly: "Since the engagement has been engaged, but the marriage has not been withdrawn, Mrs. Guangning Hou is in a hurry to find another daughter-in-law? What's the matter?" System?"

The Marquis of Guangning looked over and groaned inwardly. The person who made the noise belonged to Luo Yushi's family. Even the emperor dared to impeach him as the censor, let alone ordinary powerful families. This Luo Yushi is famous. To the end, if this matter gets out, they will be impeached in Guangning Hou Mansion.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Guangninghou's palms were wet, and she forced a smile: "It's not like that, this matter of marriage, what my parents say, and Guangninghou and I only treat him as a child, and we are deceived." Now, this is something I don't know the root of, and it shouldn't be anyone else's."

"It shouldn't be anymore, since the marriage contract and the token have been exchanged, it is a serious family relative. Even if you want to break the contract and look for it again, you should withdraw the marriage first. The way Guangning Hou and his wife are doing is really not very authentic. " Mrs. Luo's temperament can be regarded as following Luo Yushi's temperament, and she is very reasonable when talking about teaching.

"Don't be upset, Mrs. Luo, Mrs. Guangninghou is also concerned about it, so it will be chaotic." Mrs. Anqinghou echoed, and when everyone was surprised, she smiled and said, "Children today have such a big temper. If he is really determined to fight you, can a parent still be stubborn? Take Shun Yonghou as an example, he got married in private, and now his children and grandchildren are full of beautiful husbands and wives, which is a beautiful thing, no wonder the general Emulated."

As soon as she said this, everyone's faces were strange, and Mrs. Guangning Hou's face was ashen.

Hou Shunyong's private marriage caused a lot of uproar back then, but it was because he was dissatisfied with the marriage that his stepmother had sought for him, and he was not to blame for his dissatisfaction. Unfaithful, who doesn't say that the stepmother is vicious?So he found a marriage for himself in private, and now it is very good.

Now that Marquis Anqing said this, he not only said that there was nothing wrong with Ning Guang, but also ridiculed that Mrs. Ninghou of Guangning was comparable to Mrs. Marquis of Shunyong back then.

Mrs. Guangning Hou was very angry, she bit her lip, and just wanted to say something, Mrs. Luo had already stood up, and said: "Cai'er remembered that I have important matters at home, so I can't delay this, so I will take my leave first." .”

Madam Guangning's complexion changed slightly, and she didn't care about arguing with Madam Anqing, she quickly apologized and said with a smile: "It's early, and it hasn't been long, Madam Luo, please sit down for a while."

"No need." Madam Luo raised her chin, and said indifferently: "The family is busy with affairs, and my husband often tells me to teach my children to be polite, honest and shameful, so let's go home now." The girl greeted her daughter and hurried away.

As soon as Mrs. Luo left, two of her friends also stood up and said goodbye one after another. Everyone saw that they were from noble families. Mrs. Guangning Hou's face turned dark, and she sent them out with a shy smile.

The rest of the people looked at each other, a little unable to sit still, but seeing Princess Yongjun sitting on it steadily, and didn't say that she wanted to leave, so they also held back and said Su Liu to go up, but Dissipated a lot of embarrassment.

However, when Mrs. Anninghou turned around again, she saw everyone talking and laughing, her face was slightly stiff, and she heard that the damn country girl was the center of the topic, her face was distorted, and the eyes she looked at Mrs. Anqinghou were poisoned. generally.

"Mrs. Guangning, my concubine heard Mrs. Anqing say that although Miss Su is of low birth, she can be regarded as a noble family. It's rare to have such a character. It's good that you get us sometime. "Princess Yongjun said with a smile.

Madam Guangning's face was stiff, and she said embarrassingly: "How can I have such a blessing, no one can tell what will happen in the future, right?"

Everyone bowed their heads in silence, holding up tea as a cover, but they all said in their hearts that it would be fun to go to court early tomorrow!
