Chapter 152
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for family reunion. On this day, Aunt Guo cooked a large table of delicious food, but Yu Xi had no appetite, no matter how much food there was, it would be tasteless to eat alone.
Not long after dinner, Zisu and the others moved out two tables from the house. There are moon cakes and various fruits and vegetables on the table, which are very rich.
A group of people looked at the moon in the yard, waited for the red candles to burn more than half, and began to worship the moon. After worshiping the moon, Yuxi looked at the round moon in the sky and said with a smile: "It is said that the moon on the fifteenth day is sixteen round, but today's moon is extraordinarily round!"
Zi Su looked at Yu Xi and smiled, but she couldn't hide the loneliness in her eyes: "Girl, it's windy, let's go inside!"
Yu Xi nodded and said: "Move everything into the house!"
As soon as the words were finished, a gust of wind blew out the burning red candle. Zi Su wanted to go up and light the red candle, but Yu Xi stopped her and said, "There's no need to light it, that's it!"
Not long after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qiu Wei's results came out, and Chen Ran won the first place, being Xie Yuan of this year. As soon as this incident came out, it caused a sensation.
At this time, even the eldest wife of the Yu family was very moved, and said that she wanted to marry the Chen family. Mrs. Taininghou was both happy and sad when she got the news. Happily, the son is so good, and the Yu family took the initiative to kiss him. You know, girls from the Yu family have never had to worry about getting married. It is sad that such a good marriage may be missed.
It is also because the Yu family is too famous, and the girls in the Yu family are also very famous. Mrs. Tai Ning Hou couldn't bear to reject it after much deliberation, and vaguely said that she would go home and ask Tai Ning Hou.
In the evening, Mrs. Taininghou told Taininghou about this matter: "Mrs. Yu wants to tell Ran'er about her first daughter. I have met that girl before. She is outstanding in everything. She is better than the fourth girl of the Han family. I don't know how many times stronger." If it was before, she would definitely agree without thinking.
Marquis Taining looked at his wife and said, "However, you don't know what kind of character you are? If you backtrack on what you say, you are not afraid of him making a fuss?" Chen Ran made a fuss, not like a three-year-old child, That's straight up. At that time, the husband and wife will be overwhelmed.
Mrs. Taining Hou said with a stiff face, "I'm also doing it for his own good." Mr. Yu is very powerful in the court, and the eldest daughter of the Yu family is also the Ninth Concubine, so his son can marry the sister of the Ninth Concubine , will be of great help to him in the future. Furthermore, Yu Xixian is a real lady of every family, her appearance, talent, temperament and demeanor are all in line with Mrs. Taininghou's wishes. Moreover, the Yu family's tutor is very good, and the youngest son married a girl from the Yu family, so he will not worry about the relationship between his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and his sister-in-law in the future. On the other hand, if the son marries Han Yuxi, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will definitely not get along well in the future, and the sister-in-law will definitely not get along.
Marquis Taining is not stupid, he can know that it is better for his son to marry a girl from the Yu family, but the problem is that his son is not willing, and he can't do anything to this evil son: "You should do as he wants! Otherwise you Here we make a marriage arrangement, but he went to the temple and said that he wanted to become a monk, and if he couldn’t marry Yu’s family, he would become an enemy, but he really lost his wife and lost his army.”
Mrs. Tai Ning Hou thought of her son's indifferent expression, and her eyes turned red: "Tell me, why did I have such a sin?" What happened back then was not intentional. But he didn't expect that because of what happened that year, his son had such a big knot in his heart towards them, and he still doesn't forgive them until now. He always threatens her with family affairs.
Marquis Taining was more open-minded: "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. However, if you like the girl of the Han family, it's good to let him go. Maybe, when he gets married and has his own children, this nature will be corrected." .” When Chen Ran got married, he didn’t have to worry about him becoming a monk.
Mrs. Taining Hou wiped her tears and said: "The girl of the Han family has a bad temper. I am worried that if she marries her, she will be farther and farther away from us in the future." If she is allowed to choose,
It is impossible to pick Han Yuxi. Little did they know, Yu Xi didn't care about Chen Ran either.
Chen Ran went to Red Zaozhuang on the day he passed the Jieyuan test. But this time, he was not as lucky as last time, and did not meet Yuxi.
Hearing that Chen Ran came again, Yu Xi said with a cold face: "Drive him away. If you don't drive him away, you will tie him up and throw him on the road." Yu Xi is not the slightest bit for such a person who damages her reputation. They are not polite. It's fine if you don't beat her up.
Han Ji looked bitter, and said: "Girl, that is the son of Taining Houfu. If we tie him up, wouldn't we be enmity with Taininghoufu?"
Yuxi sneered and said, "What kind of grudge is there? You don't have to throw it on the road, just send it to Taininghou's mansion, and tell the Taininghou couple to let them take care of their son. If you come again next time, it won't be a kidnapping It’s gone. Don’t blame me for not reminding you that you’ll be missing arms and legs.”
Han Ji secretly complained, wondering if it was because the third master came to stimulate the girl last time, turning the girl into a tigress.
Under Yuxi's instruction, Han Ji went out and said to Chen Ran: "Second Master Chen, please go back. My girl said that it is inappropriate for lonely men and widows to meet. Otherwise, there will be rumors that are harmful to my girl. There are rumors about her reputation. So, I ask Second Lord Chen to be considerate."
Chen Ran said with apologetic expression: "I have been studying hard behind closed doors at home before, and I don't know the rumors outside. This time, I came here to apologize to the girl." Chen Ran really didn't know, but just talked to Yu Xi twice. Words like that will come out unexpectedly. It was also today that his servant told him. Otherwise, he still doesn't know it yet!
Hearing that he came to apologize, Han Ji felt much more at ease: "Second Master Chen, my girl lives here alone, it is really inconvenient to see you." The mouths of those people outside were like knives, and thanks to the four The girl has a strong ability to bear, otherwise she would definitely hide under the covers and cry.
Chen Ran went back very well, but before going back, he said something: "Tell your girl that I will be responsible for what happened before."
Han Ji's eyelids twitched when he heard this, responsible, what is he responsible for? But it must be as he thought. However, if it is really what he thinks, the wife and the son must be very happy.
This is not a small matter, Han Ji was dissatisfied with concealing it, and immediately went back and relayed the words to Yuxi: "Miss, it seems that Chen Erye has a ladylike intention for the girl!"
Yuxi doesn't think that Chen Ran likes her, so she wants to marry her. Her first feeling was that Chen Ran must have some intentions: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Han Ji has his own ideas. Although Yuxi is angry, she still has to say what she should say: "Girl, what Mr. Chen said means that he wants Mrs. Taining Hou to come to propose marriage. Girl, are we right about this matter?" You should tell your grandpa."
Yuxi nodded and said: "I'll write to elder brother right away." Yuxi didn't let Mrs. Enwei Taininghou look up to her. However, according to the previous two meetings with Yuxi, she has seen that Chen Ran's brain circuit is very different from others. Maybe he really has the ability to persuade Mrs. Taining Hou to go to the Han family to ask for marriage. If so, she would still say hello to her eldest brother, and then don't agree to the Chen family's marriage.
Maybe Mrs. Tai Ninghou is indeed generous, but even the most generous person will become very mean to someone she doesn't like. In addition, Chen Ran's behavior is different from ordinary people. Such a person is actually very difficult to get along with, because you don't know what he thinks and does. Now Yuxi only hoped that her guess was wrong, and Chen Ran just had a whim. I also hope that the Marquis of Taining can restrain Chen Ran and not be persuaded by Chen Ran. As long as Mrs. Taining Hou does not come to marry, this marriage will not be possible.
When Chen Ran returned to the Hou Mansion, he was called by Madam Taining Hou.
Mrs. Taininghou told Chen Ran all kinds of good things about Yu Xixian, and hoped that Chen Ran would go to see her. After much deliberation, Mrs. Taininghou still did not give up and wanted to make the last attempt.
Chen Ran said blankly: "I'm not interested." The girls his mother picked for him were all beautiful and lovely, and they were also very obedient, as if they were printed out of a mold. What he wants to marry is a wife, someone who he wants to spend his whole life with, not a puppet.
Mrs. Taining Hou choked for a moment: "Then what's so good about the girl from the Han family?" She really didn't see what was wrong with Han Yuxi. Leaving aside her bad fate, let's just say that she is just a petite person, without the dignity and gentleness that a lady should have.
Chen Ran looked at his mother, and said with a chuckle, "I don't know if it's good or not, but I just looked at her pleasing to the eye. Mother said so much, did she go back on her word? Don't want to fulfill her promise?"
Mrs. Taining Hou opened her mouth several times, but no words came out. On the contrary, Mrs. Lin said from the side: "Second Master, Madam is also thinking about Second Master. Miss Xixian, she is really a good girl to pick one in case." A girl that others are desperate to marry, can't be good!
After hearing this, Chen Ran sneered, and said, "If you want to regret it, go back on it!" After speaking, he was ready to go out.
Mrs. Taininghou's heart was about to jump when she saw her son like this. She wouldn't be afraid if Chen Ran argued with her, but this appearance scares her the most. No one knew what he was thinking, or what he would do: "Stop for me."
Chen Ran turned around and said, "You don't like the girl from the Han family, and you don't want to propose marriage. I have no objection. What does mother want me to do? If you really like the girl from the Yu family and think that the girl from the Yu family is good, then that's fine. You Just make a decision, I don't care if I don't look at it." After a pause, he said: "You are beautiful and obedient, and you should like it, and it would be nice to marry and put it in the house."
Mrs. Taininghou is breathing heavily. If she marries a girl from the Yu family and comes back as a decoration, then she will really have an enemy: "Then what do you want?"
Chen Ran felt it was funny: "You don't like what I like, and you want me to marry what you like, and I don't object. Mother, what do you want from me?"
Mrs. Tai Ninghou said angrily: "What's so good about the girls of the Han family? What made you so determined?" She couldn't say that she said people looked down on you.
Chen Ran looked directly at her mother, and said: "I don't know how good the girl from the Han family is, but I know that if she encounters difficulties, she will only think about how to overcome them, and will not seek death or ruin herself." With half of Han Yuxi's ability to bear, she won't die.
Mrs. Taininghou was stunned for a moment, and finally said hoarsely: "The third lady of the Han family has just passed away, so it's inappropriate to come here at this time to say kiss."
Chen Ran looked indifferent: "Mum, let's figure it out!" It seemed that life's major events were just a game to him.
Mrs. Taining Hou caressed her heart, sat on the chair, and said angrily and annoyed: "I don't know what evil I did in my previous life to give birth to such a debt collector." Others are sons who obey their parents, and she The side is upside down. On weekdays, I was afraid of provoking this little ancestor and making him do something he couldn't bear.
Mrs. Lin comforted: "Ma'am, when the second master gets married and becomes a parent, I will know how hard you and Lord Hou have worked." Fortunately, they are their own sons, and there is no overnight feud between mother and son. Otherwise, Madam would be even more disgusted.
Mrs. Taining Hou felt that she had eaten Coptis chinensis, and she was miserable: "Han Yuxi contradicts her biological father and ignores her aunt. I am really worried about letting her marry Ran'er." She is really worried that Yuxi will marry her. The son is broken.
Mrs. Lin murmured in her heart that few people could bear the weird temperament of the second master. If the daughter-in-law who will marry back in the future is not able to bear it, it is estimated that they will not live long. The girl from the Han family has a lot of experience and she has a strong ability to bear it. In this regard, the second master's vision is unique. These words, Mrs. Lin only slandered in her heart.
After a while, Mrs. Taining Hou said to herself: "Forget it, you don't have to wait for three months. After Qiqi, someone will pass a message to Mrs. Han." If you settle early, you won't regret it She didn't have to think about it any more.
Han Jianming received Yuxi's letter, and after reading it, a smile appeared on his face. This kid from the Chen family has a good eye, and he actually fell in love with Yuxi. However, it is not so easy to marry Yuxi.
The Qiu family was very surprised when they heard Han Jianming's words: "You mean that Chen Ran, the second son of Marquis Taining, has a crush on Yuxi?" I came forward to clarify, and the rumors dissipated.
Han Jianming nodded.
Seeing this, Qiu asked, "Will Madam Taining come to propose marriage?"
Han Jianming wasn't sure, but said, "It's fine if you don't come. If the Marquis of Taining comes to propose marriage, you will have to refuse."
This time Qiu Shi didn't listen to Han Jianming's words, and said: "What do you mean I refused? The Chen family is such a good family, do you know how many people come to the Chen family to propose marriage? If Mrs. Chen came to propose marriage, wouldn't I not agree?" Stupid?"
Han Jianming had expected that Qiu's attitude would be like this, and immediately said: "Yuxi has to nod and agree to the marriage! Before Yuxi returns to the house, no matter who comes to propose marriage, he cannot agree." Han Jianming also felt that the Chen family was very upset. Not bad, but the twisted melon is not sweet. If Yuxi herself didn't like Chen Ran, the Chen family would not be a good one.
Qiu Shi looked at Han Jianming, and said with a smile: "It's nothing to worry about, you are worrying about it. Don't worry, even if the Chen family really wants to propose marriage, they won't come now, at least it will take the first three months." Qiu Shi didn't believe that the Chen family would come to propose marriage at all. It's not that Yuxi is bad, but that Chen Ran is too good.
Han Jianming thought for a while and said nothing. Three months later, Yuxi has come back, and then let Yuxi solve this problem by herself.
