Chapter 259 Selecting a husband and son-in-law, something happened to Li's family (3)
"What do you think of this man?" Mrs. Zhang handed the Geng Tie in her hand to Mrs. Li.
Li put down the geng post in his hand, took it, looked at it carefully, nodded and said: "It's not bad. The family is rich, humble and polite, and loves poetry. I think he should be a person with a gentle personality and some elegant literati."
"You think it's good too? Then give it to girl Xuan." Zhang almost made the final decision.
Li shi opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but seeing Zhang shi's determined look, she swallowed it back and sighed now.
In fact, she didn't think this man was a match for Chu Xuan.
"Madam, Miss Xuan's personality is cold and arrogant, and she has a high spirit. Although this son is good, he is still mediocre. If Miss Xuan is promised to him, I am afraid that Miss Xuan's temper will not be happy." It's hard for Li to say, but Su Momo, who had served Mrs. Zhang all her life, spoke at the right time.
"Hmph." Mrs. Zhang snorted coldly, with a slightly cold expression: "She is not happy? The marriage of the daughter's family is decided by the parents and elders. How can she speak? She is so high-minded that she has forgotten her identity. Chu Her family has been entrenched in Hexi for many years, and they are all businessmen, so is it possible that with her background, she still wants to marry some prince, general, or prince?"
Chu Qing's drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, and then became calm again.
Mrs. Zhang's seemingly angry words seemed to be speaking to herself.Is it hinting to himself that Chu Xuan is also thinking about the title of princess?Still, Chu Xuan is not simple.
But no matter why, she had already sensed the ambition of a woman like Chu Xuan.So, nothing to be afraid of.
"Old Ancestor, although the marriage of the two daughters is the result of a matchmaker's words and the orders of their parents, it needs to be in harmony with each other to be complete. If they are forced together, I'm afraid there will only be an extra pair of resentful spouses in the end." .
A sharp light flashed in Zhang's eyes, he wanted to say something, but because of Chu Qing's presence, he didn't say it.However, that look still startled Li Shi.
It seemed that it suddenly occurred to her that her union with Chu Zhengyang was an example of betraying the family for the sake of being in love with each other.
Thinking of this, her face turned pale immediately, she pursed her lips, and said no more.
Mrs. Zhang sighed, and said with a flick of her sleeve: "That's it for today. I'm tired too. I'll see tomorrow. Choose a few suitable candidates and ask Yun Ke to visit them secretly. If there is no problem, let's leave it at that." It's booked. After our family A Li enters the palace, we will hold a wedding for a few girls."
"Old ancestor! I don't want to marry!" Suddenly, a beautiful white shadow rushed into the main room regardless of He Su's obstruction, and shouted at Mrs. Zhang.
Everyone in the room was taken aback for a moment, and when they fixed their eyes, they found that it was Chu Xuan.
Judging by the angry expression on her face, she must have been listening outside for a while.
"Presumptuous! What kind of place is this? I don't allow you to yell." Mrs. Zhang slapped the table and looked down at Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan's face was full of anger and hatred, and there were tears of grievance in her eyes. She clenched her fists with her hands hanging by her sides, and she forced her small face to look at Zhang: "Old ancestor, my marriage is up to me. Make the decision. Thanks to the ancestor for his concern, Chu Xuan dare not trouble the ancestor."
"Bold! Is this the politeness your mother taught you? You actually talk to me like that. What do you mean you decide your own marriage? Is there any courtesy, justice and shame?" Zhang was furious.
Chu Xuan was startled, her tense shoulders suddenly loosened, and while struggling, she knelt on the ground and said pitifully, "Old Ancestor, Xuan'er knew I was wrong. Please don't marry me, Xuan'er still wants to marry me." I will serve my parents at home for a few more years, and I want to listen to the teachings of my ancestors more."
Chu Xuan is undoubtedly a smart woman.
It can be said that if Chu Qing hadn't appeared, with Chu Xuan's appearance and talent, the Chu family would definitely cultivate her vigorously and use her to stabilize the family's position.
However, there are not so many ifs in the world.
The appearance of Chu Qing made her who was outstanding before dim like a firefly.
As the saying goes, how can the light of fireflies compete with the bright moon?In front of Chu Qing, Chu Xuan was the firefly, and Chu Qing was the bright moon.
Under such circumstances, Zhang's choice is naturally understandable.
Mrs. Zhang looked at Chu Xuan who was kneeling on the ground with the same complicated expression, sighed, and shook her head: "Go ahead, these days, stay in the house and prepare things for yourself to get married. In short, you are Chu Xuan Daughter of my family, when you leave the cabinet, I won't lose you."
"Old ancestor!" Hearing that Mrs. Zhang still insisted on marrying herself off, Chu Xuan raised her small face and looked at her in shock.
Unfortunately, Mrs. Zhang lowered her eyes and stopped looking at her.
"Back off." Zhang said again, this time, her voice was as cold as ice, without a trace of warmth.
Chu Qing watched from the side and sighed secretly. Sure enough, the bigger the family, the weaker the family ties.It seems that any decision is based on the interests of the family.
She believed that today, if she hadn't returned here, she would already have a certain identity.Then Zhang's attitude towards her may not be as good as that of Chu Xuan.
If she had grown up in the Chu family compound since she was a child, her fate would probably be similar to that of Chu Xuan in front of her.
The only difference is that she is still not a woman of this era.Her thinking and vision are higher than anyone else in this world, so she can plan ahead and arrange a retreat for herself in advance.
The intrigues and power struggles in this family are really not as enjoyable as her arranging for profit in the mall.Suddenly, Chu Qing began to look forward to his trip to North Korea in a few days.
If it is possible to win the trading rights of the Qasili family and carry out large-scale business operations in North Korea, it will undoubtedly be a qualitative leap for Jiuming Company.
Amidst Chu Qing's emotion, Chu Xuan had already stood up.Her cheeks were bloodless, she lost her soul, and her eyes drifted away, falling on Li Shi, and said with a half-smile: "Chu Xuan thank you for your hard work, and I hope that Grandma can choose a good family for Chu Xuan. It would be great to have half of Sister Qing's good match."
These words made Chu Qing squint her eyes and look at her.
The eyes of the two met in the air, sparking fierce sparks, and finally calmed down without a breath.
"Chu Xuan bids farewell." After paying respects, Chu Xuan turned and left.
Looking at her leaving steps, Chu Qing frowned slightly.
In the seventh room of the Chu family, in Chu Lian's courtyard, there were still crying sounds.Chu Zhengxiong sat motionless in front of the stone table in the courtyard, clenched his left hand and put it on the table, his lips were tightly pursed, showing his depression at the moment.
A little servant girl hurried over and bowed her head in front of him: "Master, Miss still refuses to eat."
Chu Zhengxiong waved his hand and told the little maid to leave.He looked at Chu Lian's closed door, and his thoughts were surging.This time, although it was Yang's fault, but in order to appease Da Fang, the Patriarch forced him to reluctantly divorce his wife.How could he really swallow such a shame?
