peasant girl wedding

Chapter 231 Temple Fair
"Mother, when you said she couldn't marry into our family, it wasn't because she couldn't, but because of your and father's face."

Liu Chen said with a bitter smile.

Madam Qingyan pursed her lips slightly, but did not speak.

Indeed, as Liu Chen said, there is indeed this factor.

However, the most important reason is that it will affect his future.

Just imagine, how can a wife who can be ridiculed by others to suppress him help him in his future?

"Chen'er..."

"Mother," Liu Chen turned around, his heart was in a mess, "my son has gone back to rest, mother, let's take a good rest too."

"Chen'er..."

Madam Qingyan spoke.

Liu Chen didn't stay any longer, and his hurried back quickly disappeared without a trace.

"Ma'am," Abi came in from the outside, worriedly looking at Mrs. Qingyan.

Mrs. Qingyan sat down with a slumped face, and murmured: "Did I do something wrong? Chen'er, won't he forgive me?"

"Ma'am, the young master just couldn't figure it out for a while, but in the future, he will definitely understand Madam's painstaking efforts." Abi comforted.

Mrs. Qingyan looked up at her, like a drowning person grasping at the last straw, "Will he do it?"

Abby nodded heavily.

.........

Naturally, Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er did not know what happened in Liu's mansion.

At this moment, they have already returned home and went to their respective houses.

After thinking about it, Tong Zhi'er went to Tong Zhu'er's house.

Before she got close, she heard a burst of laughter from inside the house.

Tong Zhi'er stepped lightly and walked forward slowly.

The door was not closed, and through the half-open gap, Tong Zhi'er saw Tong Zhu'er's silly smile.

This smile made Tong Zhi'er startled.

Tong Zhi'er is very familiar with this smile.

Tong Duo'er had the same smile when she fell in love with Dong Ping.

Tong Zhi'er was very worried.

Let's not talk about the identity of that well-dressed young master, just what kind of character he is, it makes Tong Zhi'er very worried.

Tong Zhu'er's girl Huaichun, Tong Zhi'er thought, she needs to have a good relationship with her again.

Tong Zhi'er knocked on the door and said with a smile, "Zhu'er."

"Second sister, the door is open, come in quickly."

Tong Zhi'er pushed the door open and walked in with a smile.

As soon as she entered the room, Tong Zhu'er came over to pull her, let her sit on the bed, and then quickly closed the door.

Such a mysterious attitude made Tong Zhi'er's heart sink slightly.

"Second sister, what do you think of the young man we met today? He looks good-looking and looks like a scholar. He must have read a lot..."

Before Tong Zhi'er could speak, Tong Zhu'er started talking excitedly.

"Zhu'er," Tong Zhi'er couldn't help interrupting her.

Tong Zhu'er looked up at her, her eyes sparkling.

"Zhu'er, do you like this young master very much?"

Tong Zhu'er paused, and shook her head fiercely, but a large blush flew up on her cheeks.

What is 300 taels of no silver here, Tong Zhi'er has a deep understanding today.

"Pearl, you..."

Tong Zhi'er spoke again, but it was hard to say what she said, she was afraid that the words would be too harsh and hurt Tong Zhu'er's heart.If she didn't say anything, she felt uneasy in her heart.

After all, this is his younger sister.

"Zhu'er, you are still young, you should ask your parents to give you advice on life-long events."

Tong Zhu'er nodded, "I see, Second Sister."

The two sisters had just spoken when they heard Fang Cuiwei call them over for dinner.

At the dinner table, Tong Zhu'er talked about Mrs. Qingyan's invitation to their family.

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei were very happy, after dinner, they discussed what to prepare for tomorrow.

At night, Tong Zhi'er lay on the bed, thinking of the young master who called Tong Zhu'er during the day, and sighed inwardly.

Hope nothing happens.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Tong Zhixin took the presents, and Fang Cuiwei, Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er drove to Liu's residence in a carriage.

The housekeeper knew Tong Zhu'er well, seeing that Tong Zhi'er brought his parents over to visit his wife, and the wife also said that she was going to entertain them, so the housekeeper took him to the flower hall for guests.

"Ma'am, Miss Tong's family is here."

When the housekeeper came to report, Mrs. Qingyan was stunned.

Since she broke up with Liu Chen yesterday, all her thoughts have been on Liu Chen, and now she heard the butler come over and said that she was in a daze.

"Abi, Abi."

she shouted.

Abby quickly entered the house.

The housekeeper stepped aside, but he didn't dare to leave without his wife telling him to leave.

"Abi, come here."

Abi moved closer to Mrs. Qingyan and nodded, "Okay, ma'am, Abi will go now."

After Abi left, Mrs. Qingyan got up and asked the housekeeper, "Where are they now?"

"Returning to Madam, the old slave will arrange the Tong girl's family in the flower hall."

Madam Qingyan nodded, "Follow me."

"Yes, ma'am."

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei sat on the chairs, sizing up the layout of the Liu residence, and quickly looked away, just sitting quietly, waiting for the owner to come.

When the sound of footsteps came, several people turned their heads, and saw a gorgeously dressed woman coming slowly.

Tong Zhi'er whispered to the two of them: "Father, Mother, this is Mrs. Qingyan, Zhu'er's master."

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei got up from their chairs, looked at the visitor with a smile, and said, "I have seen Madam, thank you Madam for taking care of my little girl, we came today to disturb Madam."

Mrs. Qingyan smiled, shook her head and said: "What are you talking about? Mr. Tong, Mrs. Tong, I have long wanted to see you, but I am in the capital and you are in Qingzhou. I didn't have the chance before, but now it is better. Finally, I can meet you. Come, sit down casually. Butler, serve tea."

After Mrs. Qingyan talked, she led Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei to sit beside her, and then took their seats.

Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er stood behind Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei.

Seeing Madam Qingyan looking at her, Tong Zhi'er smiled.

"Ma'am, we don't know how to repay this great kindness for you to accept your little girl as an apprentice. This is a little special product we brought from Qingzhou when we came to the capital. It's a mere gift, not a respect. I also wish Madam Haihan. "

Tong Zhixin stood up and placed the gift next to Mrs. Qingyan.

Mrs. Qingyan took it with a smile, "It will cost Master Tong a lot."

The butler brought the tea at this time.

Madam Qingyan greeted: "Master Tong, Madam Tong, drink some tea."

"Okay, thank you madam."

The tea is good tea, with a fragrance, after drinking it into the stomach, there is still a trace of indelible aftertaste in the mouth.

"Master Tong, Mrs. Tong, you have a pair of good daughters. Miss Zhi'er, she is well-behaved and intelligent, and Zhu'er is also a talented and hard-working child. When I went to Qingzhou, I didn't even think about it. We will take an apprentice back later, and to this day, I think it is our fate."

Mrs. Qingyan put the teacup on the table, Pazi tried the tea stains on her lips, and said with a smile.

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei didn't know how to answer the conversation, so they laughed along with her.

"Master Tong, are you planning to live here permanently in the capital?"

Tong Zhixin shook his head, "I don't intend to stay permanently, but I have some important things to deal with."

Mrs. Qingyan nodded, looked at Tong Zhi'er and Tong Zhu'er, and said: "There are many interesting places in the capital, I will ask Abi to take you for a walk in another day."

"Thank you Madam for your kindness. In the past few days, my parents, my sister, and I have already visited the capital. The capital is indeed as people said, with outstanding people." Tong Zhi'er replied.

After everyone chatted for a while, Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei stood up, intending to say goodbye to Mrs. Qingyan.

The butler sent the four of them out, while Mrs. Qingyan returned to her yard, the smile on her face turned tired.

On the carriage, Tong Zhier frowned slightly.

"Second sister, what's the matter with you?"

Tong Zhu'er asked in puzzlement.

Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei also looked over worriedly.

Tong Zhi'er smiled and shook his head, "It's nothing."

I don't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the way Mrs. Qingyan looked at her today seemed to be very complicated.

On the way back, Tong Zhi'er kept thinking about this problem, but there was no result.

The carriage stopped in front of the house, Tong Zhi'er got off the carriage and met Shang Ji Li's eyes.

Tong Zhi'er paused, then nodded to him.

Ji Li looked at Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei, and said, "Uncle, Aunt, I want to take Zhi'er outside for a walk, I wonder if you two agree?"

"Well, you guys go, just come back early."

The two of them had already set a wedding date, and there are still several months before they get married. The two of them don't have to shy away from the inauspicious rules of meeting new couples before getting married. Tong Zhixin and Fang Cuiwei agreed.

"Second sister, have fun."

Tong Zhu'er winked at Tong Zhi'er, smiled and walked into the house.

Only Tong Zhi'er, Ji Li and a servant were left in front of the door.

"You go back first."

Ji Li said to the boy.

"Yes, my son."

In the end, only Tong Zhi'er and Ji Li were left.

Tong Zhier asked him, "Where are you going?"

"Lingyin Temple has a temple fair today."

Tong Zhier nodded.

Ji Li led the horse and walked forward, Tong Zhi'er followed behind.

After leaving the alley, Ji Li got off his horse and held out his hand to her.

Tong Zhi'er blushed, is this going to share a ride?
"Lingyin Temple is far away, and it takes two hours to walk."

Tong Zhier dawdled and struggled, and Ji Li spoke.

Tong Zhi'er looked up at him, and stretched out his hand.

Tong Zhi'er thought that he should let himself sit in the back, but who would have thought that he put himself in the front.

With both hands by her side, pulling the reins, the carriage rattled forward.

The whole person was like a Tong Zhi'er being hugged by him, and his head became a little dizzy.

The road to Lingyin Temple is indeed very long, but the road is flat and the scenery along the way is good.Gradually, Tong Zhi'er's mind shifted from the embarrassment of sitting in Ji Li's arms to the beautiful scenery.

There are criss-cross fields, rows of emerald green maple trees, blue sky and white clouds, and green grass.
