married daughter

Chapter 129 Handsome pot, can you not be so smart?

Ruan Yunting didn't know what happened to Qianqian, but seeing the serious reaction of the old lady and everyone, she knew that the situation was serious.Could it be that Lu Wenshan, who didn't know how deep he was, came to Xu's house and said something?
No, if they just said something, they wouldn't even be with the second and third masters.Then the old lady can make the decisions.

The state of the world is so serious that both the second master and the third master can be present...

Could it be that people from Lu Guogong's mansion have come to propose marriage to the Xu family? !
Ruan Yunting was immediately covered in cold sweat.Although she understands that in ancient times, she can't control her own marriage, she has already prepared her mentally, and she must keep her heart, so that she can ignore men's three wives and four concubines.But she never thought that the man who could tolerate her was a lustful idiot like Lu Wenshan.

If he can fall in love with her today and pursue her with all his strength, he can fall in love with others tomorrow. It doesn't matter if she doesn't love her husband, and she doesn't care if a person she doesn't love loves her, but that person has the right to possess The man in her body can't be such an idiot!

Seeing that her face was pale, and she didn't hide her panic, the old lady already knew that Ruan Yunting was trying to understand something because of her cleverness.Now the situation is a bit chaotic, and the old lady couldn't think of a proper solution for a while. She inevitably felt a headache, sighed, and pinched the bridge of her nose with her thumb and index finger.

The eldest lady stood up and handed a cup of ginseng tea to the old lady: "Old Ancestor, take a break, don't get angry, don't worry. Your body is more important."

The third master rolled his eyes at the third wife, how will the elder sister-in-law come?Why did she marry an elm lump, and she would only be sour and jealous, making the house restless, and if it was said that she was filial in front of the old lady, she didn't even bother to pretend.

The third wife was given a blank look, and she felt very upset, but she also felt that the eldest lady had done a good job, so she followed suit and went to the old lady to say a few warm words.

The originally tense atmosphere became somewhat relaxed after being disturbed by the two daughters-in-law.

However, Ruan Yunting, who was kneeling on the ground, still felt a chill down her back and a chill in her heart.

"That's all." After a while, the old lady opened her eyes, waved her hands and said, "Ting'er, go down."

"Old ancestor, I..."

"Okay, you don't need to say much, I'm discussing with your third uncle and second cousin."

Where did women in ancient times have the right to comment on their own marriages?Ruan Yunting's fate at this moment is equivalent to being in the hands of others.But she couldn't make up her own mind at all.

I could only kowtow obediently, get up, and leave the Pine Age Hall silently.

That night, Ruan Yunting suffered from insomnia.In the middle of the night, Shui Qiuxin came to Ruan Yunting's room as lightly as a civet cat, but Ruan Yunting was so upset that she didn't want to talk to anyone, she just closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, and Shui Qiuxin was just lying on the bed as usual. Pan looked at her for a while, then helped her tuck the quilt before turning and leaving.

How could she avoid Lu Wenshan?

"Miss Ruan, today you are absent-minded, and the sound of the piano is gone." In the bamboo garden, Xiao Beishu leaned against a rocking chair made of green bamboo, and took a sip of the white porcelain wine in his hand.

Jun Lanzhou put down the flagon upon hearing this, and looked back at Ruan Yunting.

The three of them are currently in the back garden of Xiao Beishu's residence in Fengxian Academy. The scenery is excellent, especially now that it is drizzling, the three of them are in the thatched pavilion among the bamboo forests, surrounded by straw mats Suspension shelters from slanting wind and drizzle.Listening to the sound of rustling rain, smelling the fresh air, drinking tea and playing the piano, the cold autumn seems to be dissipated.

But Ruan Yunting is not as natural as usual today.

"I'm sorry, why don't you come with Lanzhou." Ruan Yunting got up and sat down beside Xiao Beishu, took a wine cup and poured herself a cup, and drank it down with her head raised.

Xiao Beishu and Jun Lanzhou looked at each other, both a little dumbfounded.They had never seen Ruan Yunting so uncontrollable. In the past, the three of them used to play the piano and taste wine together. Every time she poured wine for her, she politely refused.She said that she is a woman and must keep a clear head at all times.

Jun Lanzhou frowned, "Miss Ruan, what happened?"

Xiao Beishu also sat up straight, and said jokingly, "Why, don't you need a clear head?"

"What good is being too sober?" Ruan Yunting narrowed her eyes.Helpless self-deprecating, "People like me just want to be happy and free in my heart, but when things happen, don't I still have to rely on my family? No matter what, it never really belonged to me. If someone is unhappy, What is given to me can be taken back at any time, not to mention life-long events, all things can only be manipulated by others, all things..."

Ruan Yunting's words slowly became hoarse, and the last sentence fell into her throat, almost whimpering.She has been trying to adapt to the ancient times, trying to survive.She has also lowered her standards. It doesn't matter if the person she marries is the one she loves, isn't that okay?Do you still want her to be with a disgusting idiot?
Ruan Yunting poured another cup of wine, raised her head and drank it all, there were no tears in her eyes, but her face was miserable.

Jun Lanzhou seemed to understand something, frowned and said, "Someone is going to propose a marriage?"

Ruan Yunting didn't answer.

"Is he the son of Duke Lu's family?"

Ruan Yunting raised her eyebrows to look at him: "How do you know?"

Jun Lanzhou smiled slightly, his handsome face seemed to be full of sunshine, which could drive away the haze in Ruan Yunting's heart, and turned into a low male duck voice and said slowly: "The only ones who walk closer to you are the princes and us. , the marriage of the eldest son will definitely be granted by the emperor in the future. If it is her, you will only be able to accept the decree to thank you. , it seems that the only one who is entangled with you is Lu Guogong's son."

Jun Lanzhou is smart and calm, good at analysis, and what he said hits the point. Ruan Yunting can only nod and smile wryly: "Yes, it's him."

Xiao Beishu said: "What's wrong with him? Did he go to your house to make a fuss?"

Ruan Yunting smiled wryly, and explained in detail how the old lady approached her, what she asked him, and the responses of the masters and ladies.

Xiao Beishu tapped his fingernails on the table, pondered for a moment before saying: "I'm afraid that this matter is something that the Duke of the country said to the third master Xu and the second master Xu. Lan Zhou, what do you think?"

Jun Lanzhou nodded: "I think so too, but Miss Ruan, you are such a smart person, why should you be entangled in this matter?"

Ruan Yunting looked up at Jun Lanzhou, "Lan Zhou, what do you think?" The tone of asking for advice was sincere.Because she knew Lan Zhou was a smart person.

Jun Lanzhou seemed to be very pleased with her attitude, smiled and said: "I guess the Duke must have said something to the master in the house. The masters were undecided, so they went to discuss with Mrs. Xu The old lady didn't know your attention, so she asked you to ask about the situation. So the first point can be sure, the old lady Xu cares about your feelings, otherwise why would she ask you?"

Ruan Yunting nodded: "You are right."

"Second, and the most important point, in all dynasties, overly powerful relatives have always been the object of the emperor's jealousy. In addition, Lu Guogong and his old man did not know how to restrain himself, and Lu Guifei's status in the palace is also at the top of the sky, which seems to be overshadowed. The trend of the Xu family. Both the Lu family and the Xu family are relatives, and the second master of the Xu family has military power in his hands. If they get married, guess what the emperor will think?"

When Ruan Yunting heard the words, she felt her heart light up, and followed his intentions and replied: "The emperor must be suspicious."

"Exactly. Will be suspicious." Jun Lanzhou leaned forward, looking directly at Ruan Yunting's eyes with sparkling peach blossom eyes, and said in a low voice: "Neither the Xu family nor the Lu family want to be suspected by the emperor." The impulsive behavior of Lu Guogong and the old man because he loves the concubine does not represent the views of the entire Lu family. It is just talking about asking for a kiss. Sooner or later, this marriage will reach the ears of the two noble concubines The two of them would not have agreed to this marriage first. Moreover, Mrs. Xu may have thought of this matter. She was afraid of offending Lu Guogong, so she was naturally obedient and just waited for the matter to reach the imperial concubine. If the empress hears the refusal again, then the marriage can be settled without her having to open her mouth to say no."

Speaking of this, Jun Lanzhou smiled and handed the teacup to Ruan Yunting: "In the end, Miss Ruan is at ease, it's too early for you to start worrying now."

Ruan Yunting took the teacup with white porcelain traced ink lotus, the warm touch flowed through her fingertips all over her limbs, warming her cold heart.Looking up, looking at the young man in front of her with a smile through the hot air, Ruan Yunting smiled gratefully, her voice had returned to her usual gentle and calm voice, "I was worrying too much, the authorities are obsessed, the bystanders are clear, Lan Zhou, thank you you."

Jun Lanzhou smiled and shook his head, took a sip of the tea cup.

Seeing this, Xiao Beishu also smiled, and poured himself a cup.Just leaning back in the rocking chair, she saw Ruan Yunting squinting at her.

"what happened?"

Ruan Yunting said with a half-smile: "Since Mr. Xiao and Lan Zhou can become close friends, the knowledge and wisdom of the two of you must be similar. Why do you see Lan Zhou helping me explain things, but Mr. Xiao doesn't speak? Could it be that you are hiding something private, or do you think that I am a fluffy girl, not worthy to play the piano and drink tea with you here?"

"Hey, why are you targeting me?" Xiao Beishu blinked innocently: "Things of a kind gather together and people are divided into groups. I have been friends with Lan Zhou for many years, so naturally we have the same heart. What he said is what I want to say. Whoever enlightens you no the same?"

Ruan Yunting was angry, "You will excuse yourself. It's a pity that I gave you the piano music." Turning her eyes, Ruan Yunting pretended to be regretful and said: "Oh, that's all, the master taught me a I came here today to tell you about the new way of recording scores, but you have no sincerity at all, and Lan Zhou doesn't like rhythm like you do. It seems that I should take this method by myself."

Xiao Beishu hurriedly sat up straight, looking at Ruan Yunting with bright eyes: "What's the solution, tell me!"
