Mrs. Meng actually saw Luo Ran from the beginning, but Mrs. Luo didn't introduce her, so she just thought she was the girl from the second bedroom. For so many years, she rarely walked around, and she didn't know many girls. She just saw this girl sitting upright at a young age, with clear eyes, and she couldn't help but like her.
At this time, I heard her say "aunt" again. After thinking about it for a moment, I understood and said with a smile, "Is this the child Qingyin left behind?"
Mrs. Luo nodded: "Exactly. Ran'er, why don't you come over and say hello to Mrs. Meng."
Luo Ran stood up and bowed solemnly: "Junior Luo Ran, please give my regards to the old lady."
"Okay, okay, what a good boy."
Mrs. Meng held Luo Ran's hand and said with some emotion: "In a flash, Qingyin's child has grown so big."
As he spoke, he took off a green eighteen-child jade bead string from his wrist and put it on Luo Ran's hand without any explanation. He could not refuse: "Good boy, take it. This has been blessed by the master. It can bless you." Peace and success.”
Luo Ran hurriedly refused: "I dare not accept such a valuable thing, old lady..."
"Why!"
Mrs. Meng raised her hand to interrupt her: "Just take it if you are told to. I have also worn this bracelet for many years. I liked it when your mother was alive, but I couldn't bear it at that time. It just so happens that today, too, Forget her wish.”
Having said this, Luo Ran could not refuse anymore, so he thanked him again.
After such a interruption, no one remembered what Li said and started talking about the marriage between the two families.
Li was a little anxious. Seeing that the old lady couldn't make sense, she turned her attention to Luo Ran, took her hand and looked like she was doing her best: "Ran'er, you are still young now, and you don't understand some things yet. But do you want to watch your father being killed?"
When Luo Ran heard that word, his heart hurt, but he said with a smile on his face: "Second Aunt is worrying too much. Compared with those rumors, the human heart is the scariest thing. What's more, if you talk about fate, I believe No one in the house can compare with dad. Dad has been fighting for more than ten years and has killed countless enemies with his sword. If you say this, is it possible that the second aunt will move out of the house and stop living with us? "
"well said!"
Although Mrs. Meng has been talking to the old lady, her ears are listening to the movements here.
One is to see what this granddaughter is like that his old sister has been thinking about for many years, and the other is to see the attitude of the Luo family. If Luo Deyun was the only one who agreed and his daughter did not approve of the marriage, it would not be easy for Miss Yuan, who was already having a difficult time, to get married.
In this case, she would have to consider whether to become a matchmaker.
Now it seems that there is no need to worry at all.
"Ran'er is right. This is how our family of generals should be. If you are always timid, why should you be an official? Just go back to your hometown and farm!"
Luo Deyun is an upright man. Although military officers are not as gentle as civil servants, as long as he has his heart, he does not worry that the couple will not be able to live together. Coupled with the fact that there is a sensible girl, the life of the Yuan family girl should be much easier in the future.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Meng originally came here because of Mrs. Shen's face, but now she sincerely wants to arrange this marriage.
Mrs. Meng's words came back with a few words, neither soft nor hard, and Mrs. Li's face felt a little ugly.
But the old lady didn't say anything, and she didn't dare to speak again.
The matter was settled like this, Mrs. Meng went back to reply, and Luo Ran also returned to her yard.
Mrs. Li talked to the old lady for a while, but the old lady couldn't make the decision, so she simply dismissed her.
Seeing that this didn't make sense, Mrs. Li hurried to her sister-in-law's place.
As soon as I entered the door, I couldn't wait to say: "Sister-in-law, what's going on with your cousin? Is it okay? If not, I can change her!"
Mrs. Liu and Li Xinyue were playing with the jewelry they had acquired during this period. Seeing Mrs. Li coming, Li Xinyue quickly put away the jewelry box and stuffed it under the pillow on the Luohan bed.
Li Shi sneered: "Sister-in-law, if you have this time, you might as well think about how to find a good in-law for Xinyue. If you have a good wife, why would you care about such jewelry?"
Seeing what Li said, Mrs. Liu was not in a hurry to hide it. Instead, she smiled and said: "Xinyue's marriage is not urgent. Your eldest brother has only been in Beijing not long ago. He has to ask about good people before talking. You can't be like some people. It seems like having a shaved head and a shaved head will make people laugh in vain."
Liu was talking about Luo Ruxue inside and out.
It turned out that during these days Luo Ruxue still thought that Fu Shiheng didn't marry her because of Luo Deyun's intention, so she deliberately kept him indifferent for a while.
It was just that so many days had passed without any news from the Fu family, so Luo Ruxue became a little panicked.
Although only a few people knew about it, it was not a secret that Fu Shiheng liked her. Besides, she had revealed before, intentionally or unintentionally, that the reason Luo Ran broke off the engagement was because she knew she was not liked by the Fu family.
She sent several letters to Fu Shiheng without reply, even though she and Fu Mingzhu deliberately quarreled with Lu Yuanyuan at the Yongding Marquis Mansion last time, just to lure Fu Shiheng out.
The goal was not achieved. Luo Ruxue had already gotten angry in the yard several times. Everyone in the house knew that the second young lady was in a bad mood recently, and everyone walked around her yard.
Mrs. Li frowned, not wanting to talk about her daughter, and continued what she had just said: "Don't say useless things. Do you know that the matchmaker just came! If you don't think of anything else, the new man will come in in a few days! By then, As soon as the new wife comes in, let alone whether you can live here, I, the second wife, have to step back!"
Ms. Liu was surprised: "So fast?"
I had never heard that the Marquis wanted to get a wife before, so why were they so anxious when they arrived.
Mrs. Li glared at her: "It's just a continuation. How long do you think it will take?"
Li Xinyue rolled her eyes at the side and said: "Mom, aunt, you asked me to tell you that instead of marrying your cousin to the Marquis, why not let my eldest brother marry Luo Ran? She also broke off the engagement anyway, and no one wants her. "
When she gets married and obeys her husband, she will have to listen to her elder brother. Then she will have whatever she wants. The more I think about Li Xinyue, the more feasible it becomes.
Mrs. Liu's eyes lit up: If her son really married Luo Ran, wouldn't he be the son-in-law of the Marquis? By then, let alone a house shop, it would be possible to become a Beijing official.
Seeing the whims of the mother and daughter, Mrs. Li couldn't help pouring cold water on her: "You guys should stop daydreaming. Don't say that the Marquis won't agree, and neither will the old lady. Don't look at how big Yutang is. Not even Juren."
What she didn't finish saying was that not to mention the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, even the concubine of her second wife would not marry. She still hoped to keep the concubine to pave the way for her son.
Being disliked, Mrs. Liu was a little unhappy and said: "Then sister, what do you mean? My cousin also went to the east courtyard two days ago, and she was kicked out. If you have any way, please help me with some advice. Why bother talking sarcastically here."
Li didn't care about her sarcasm, thought for a while and said, "In this case, you listen to me!"
