37 Marriage
Chu Lingyue was taken aback by his appearance, and quickly recovered, "Don't worry, old lady, it was indeed Hou Ye who saved Ling Yue that day, and Hou Ye never bullied Ling Yue. But Ling Yue No, I have been recuperating but I have never thanked Lord Hou. When I saw Lord Hou today, I would like to thank Lord Hou for saving my life that day. In the future, my father will come to visit with a thank you gift."

After finishing speaking, Chu Lingyue bowed gracefully, and Murong Jing watched her bow, and naturally accepted it.He knew very well that what happened that day had long since become a romantic affair in the capital, and Meng Yanhe brought it up today to clarify between them.

Others saved you but never thanked you. It’s always bad to say it, but today I said it in front of so many wives and young ladies from aristocratic families because of recuperating from injuries. In the eyes of these key people, it must be clean .As for the others, they can gossip as much as they like.

However, Chu Lingyue was aggrieved by thanking her. Murong Jing saved her twice, yes, but the first time this guy took advantage of her, and the second time this guy saw her joke!
Forget it, anyway, he also saved her. After this time, the two probably won't have any interaction.

Princess Fengyang smiled when she saw it, and even said that she was really old, and she forgot what she only heard yesterday.After chatting with the old lady for a while, Chu Lingyue and Meng Yanhe were kicked out by Princess Fengyang to play.

"You children, go out and play. An old woman like me is bored in the house. The old woman can't bear it. Go quickly. The peonies in the yard are blooming. Why don't you hurry up and play."

Meng Yanhe and Meng Yuzi both smiled, saluted and left with a few juniors.When Chu Lingyue went out, she happened to see Meng Yanhe smiling at her in the corridor, walked over quickly, gave her an unceremonious look and said angrily, "You did it on purpose!"

"Yes, I did it on purpose!" Meng Yanhe didn't hide it, and pulled her to the gazebo in the garden with a smile, sat down and looked around, and said helplessly, "It's not for your own good, you were taken care of by Jing Chenghou. The story of my grandfather's rescue has already been spread all over the streets and alleys, but you just didn't do anything, which made others suspicious for no reason. Did you know that yesterday my mother told my grandmother that you and Lord Jingcheng It seems that they have a lot of friendship, so they are so confident."

"Oh? You care about this too?" Chu Lingyue didn't take this kind of rumor very seriously, but Meng Yanhe seemed to be particularly concerned about it.

"I don't care, but mother and grandmother do. You know, the family has been discussing marriage with Prince Jingcheng's mansion in the past few days. I don't have any ideas, but my sister and the other sisters in the family are rushing to it." Speaking of this, Meng Yanhe was a little helpless, and raised his chin to signal Chu Lingyue to look at the women in the peony bushes.

Among the red, fat, green and thin peony bushes, Yingying and Yanyan stood around Murong Jing, chirping about something.It has to be said that the Meng family has good genes, and the young ladies of the Meng family, regardless of whether they are concubine or concubine, are all tall and tall, with red lips and white teeth.

Surrounded by so many beauties, Murong Jing not only didn't show any embarrassment, but instead made the group of beauties flinch with witty remarks.

"Hey, that's all, it has nothing to do with us, let's just watch from the side." Chu Lingyue turned around and called Meng Yanhe to come over, and the two chatted about something.

No wonder Princess Fengyang had to ask her to talk to Murong Jing just now, it turned out it was for this reason.Although Weiyuanhou's mansion is sparsely populated, it is still an important figure in the eyes of the emperor and queen mother.No matter how noble Princess Fengyang is, she is still a married girl, so naturally she cannot compare with the people in the eyes of the emperor and empress dowager.Although Prince Jingcheng's mansion never said that they would not marry important ministers, they also said that the children's marriages should be decided by the children.

If Murong Jing and Chu Lingyue really have such an ambiguity, if the two of them are really interesting, it will happen sooner or later. If Meng Guogong's mansion is caught in the middle and has such a meaning, it will inevitably be in the future. Mansion and Prince Jingcheng's mansion looked like idiots.

Since there is nothing that can't be said, it means that Meng Guogong's government can participate.

As everyone knows, just as Chu Lingyue and Meng Yanhe turned around, a line of sight fell on the two of them.Murong Jing was not surprised at what he would encounter when he came to Meng Guogong's mansion this time, and he also understood what Princess Fengyang meant, but he really didn't want to accept any of these ordinary women.

As for Chu Lingyue...

Smiling secretly in his heart, Murong Jing turned his attention to the bunch of pink beauties in front of him again.Among the young ladies of the Meng family, Meng Yuzi is considered to be outstanding, with a generous personality and good looks. She is the first daughter of the family, so naturally she is the closest to Murong Jing.

"Could it be that Hou Ye is tired from standing and wants to rest in the pavilion?" Seeing that Murong Jing glanced in the direction of the pavilion intentionally or unintentionally, she quickly suggested.

In fact, she didn't have any idea about marrying Murong Jing. The first daughter of Meng Guo's family still worried about not being able to marry, but the orders of her mother and grandmother were hard to disobey.Now seeing that Murong Jing seems to be interested in the two people in the pavilion, no matter which one Murong Jing is interested in, she is willing to go with the flow.

"I have long heard that Meng Guogong's eldest daughter is considerate, and I see it today." Murong Jing praised her and walked towards the gazebo.

Chu Lingyue was having a heated chat with Meng Yan, and suddenly felt that the surroundings were not so quiet. Only then did she realize that Murong Jing had come to the pavilion in a mighty manner with those Yingyingyanyans.

"What are Second Miss and Miss Chu talking about?" Seeing Chu Lingyue and Meng Yanhe looking at them, Murong Jing asked loudly, not feeling at all that it was not good to do so.

Chu Lingyue handed Meng Yanhe a look similar to "Look at it" and then said nonchalantly, "It's just a whisper from a girl's family. Why is Lord Hou still interested in the gouache and rouge from Ningyan Pavilion?"

In fact, what Chu Lingyue and Meng Yanhe were talking about just now was about Murong Jing saving her twice, and Chu Lingyue's conclusion was that this guy was just a gangster.But Meng Yanhe didn't think that it was definitely not just gags that could make Donglai's handsome coach vomit blood.

Now that there are so many beauties who are interested in Murong Jing, she naturally can't talk about it.But since Murong Jing asked, it is still necessary to answer.

Meng Yan and Yi couldn't hold back, almost burst out laughing, looked at Murong Jing without the slightest sign of getting angry, but saw him with a clear smile and said: "It turns out that ladies like the things in Ningyan Pavilion, it's okay, I will come to the door someday I asked Shopkeeper Chen to prepare some good ones for you to bring over. My mother has too many properties, and if you don’t mention it, I would have forgotten that there is such a shop.”

It's really classy to pretend to be confused. Chu Lingyue gave her a blank look but didn't answer, and silently hid behind the crowd to dodge.

Not long after, a few more sons and daughters from aristocratic families came to pay their birthday wishes, including Ji Huiyu, Dong Yuran, and Song Yichao. For a while, the surrounding pavilions and corridors were full of people, standing in twos and threes or in clusters of flowers.Chu Lingyue and Meng Yanhe had no interest in others, so they found a quiet place with Dong Yuran and Ji Huiyu and continued to gossip without getting involved with them.

"I said Miss Er, the girls in your family are all biting there like flies, why don't you join in the fun?" Dong Yuran has a carefree temper, and he really doesn't like some delicate and timid people. , so every time I come to Meng Guogong's mansion, except for a few words with Meng Yanhe, I don't pretend to be polite to anyone.

Seeing so many people standing beside Murong Jing, Dong Yuran teased Meng Yanhe.

"Just calm down, Ms. Meng's sister is also inside, it would be bad if she hears about it." Before Meng Yanhe could speak, Ji Huiyu was in a hurry.

Dong Yuran and Meng Yuzi have two completely different personalities. Meng Yuzi is slick and well-educated, and many people like her temperament very much.As for Dong Yuran, she can make the hole bigger even if the sky pokes a hole, and she is never afraid of trouble.It hasn't been a day or two since their personalities have been at odds, but there hasn't been any trouble. Most of the time, it's Meng Yuzi who just keeps her eyes closed and doesn't care about it.

"Hey, there's nothing you can't say, look at those people, they will follow wherever Jing Chenghou goes, not like flies." Dong Yuran sneered, pulling Meng Yanhe and Chen Ling at the same time Yue sat down.As for Ji Huiyu, he was too embarrassed to sit with them, so he had to stand on the porch and look at Dong Yuran helplessly.

"After all, you are the eldest lady of Meng Guogong's mansion, you should accumulate some virtue." Chu Lingyue poked Dong Yuran's forehead, looked around and found that since Lu Mingmei was not there.

Dong Yuran also noticed this problem, and put a shoulder to Chu Lingyue and asked curiously: "Where is that concubine from the Lu family?"

She was talking about Lu Mingmei, not just Dong Yuran. In fact, no one thought that Lu Mingmei was from the Hou family, but only Dong Yuran dared to say it so blatantly.

"I wanted to come over in the morning, but I shirked that my invitation didn't have her name written on it, so I didn't let her come with me, presumably because I was in the front hall with my father."

Chu Lingyue didn't know either, but she could figure it out with a little guesswork.How could he not take such a precious daughter with him.

"Ling Yue, don't you think Eldest Sister doesn't seem to have much interest in Lord Jingcheng?" Meng Yanhe, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked.

Chu Lingyue followed Meng Yanhe's gaze and found something different.Regardless of whether the other ladies of the Meng family wanted to be the head mothers of the Hou's Mansion or not, there was excitement in their eyes.But this Meng Yuzi was not, her face was calm, as if it was commonplace.

How could it be possible for a lady in the boudoir to be used to meeting outsiders, she is simply not interested.

"It doesn't matter if your sister isn't interested, whether she wants to marry or not has nothing to do with you." Chu Lingyue said something innocuous, but it aroused Meng Yanhe's dissatisfaction.
