Cheng Wanwan stood among the people, his face as pale as water.
She said softly: "Ms. Luo is no longer a member of the He family, but she is still so concerned about the affairs of the He family. I can only say that she is really a kind person. After He Ling's death, Mrs. Luo brought He Ling's son back to the Luo family to raise him. Forget it, now, he actually wants to fight for this child's right to inherit the incense of the He family. Everyone in the capital knows that the head of the He family is now He Xiao, and the person who can inherit the incense of the He family can only be He Xiao's son, so Say, do you want this child to call He Xiao daddy?"
As soon as she said this, everyone present looked at Luo Qi suddenly.
After something happened to the He family, Luo Qi was divorced and saved a life. She was only the stepmother of He Ling's son, but she took on the role of a biological mother and brought the son of a sinner back to the Luo family to raise... At that time, there were indeed many people in Beijing. People praised her for her feminine virtues.
But people in the capital have also not forgotten that many, many years ago, Luo Qi, the legitimate daughter of the Luo family, was clearly He Xiao's fiancée.
I don’t know what happened later, but in a roundabout way, the fiancée of the second son of the He family married He Lingdang, the eldest son of the He family.
Now that He Ling is dead, Madam Luo is raising the blood of the He family and often goes in and out of the He mansion. Could it be that she is thinking about the person from the beginning again?
If Luo Qi and He Xiao did not have the same relationship, and if the relationship between He Xiao and He Ling brothers was extremely harmonious, then it would not be unacceptable for He Xiao to marry his eldest sister-in-law and take care of the only bloodline left by his brother... But unfortunately, This Luo Qi abandoned He Xiao to marry He Ling, and then got entangled with He Ling after he died. This kind of behavior is really despising...
"No, it's not..." Luo Qi quickly explained, "I never thought about it this way..."
Cheng Wanwan looked at her and said: "There are so many capable people in the capital who don't know the identity of today's bride, but this seven or eight-year-old child speaks clearly and clearly. Who else can tell him except you?"
She didn't want to force Luo Qi into a desperate situation, but Luo Qi's ambition was too obvious, and he was on good terms with Mrs. He. If things continued like this, Cheng Fang would be in a worrying situation.
"Or are these words taught by Mrs. He to Young Master He?" She turned to look at Mrs. He, "One is the son of her stepson, and the other is the wife of her biological son Ming Media. Who is close and who is far away? Mrs. He will not know Bar?"
Mrs. He looked pale.
In the past, she really didn't know who was close and who was far away, so she treated her stepson well and ignored her parents, which led to the breakdown of the relationship between Xiao'er and her mother and son.
She had always treated the son born to He Ling as her own grandson. It was Xiao'er, the second uncle, who personally interceded for mercy so that the son of the rebel official could survive... But this child actually got married in Xiao'er. It was really chilling to say such words on that day.
Also, Luo Qi accidentally revealed the identity of Xiaoer's wife. Was it really unintentional?
She wanted to marry Xiao'er so much, but now her dream was shattered. She must have deliberately created some tricks to cause trouble for others...
Mrs. He looked at Luo Qi with a somewhat complicated look.
"The wife He Xiao married is surnamed Cheng, and she is my niece. She was indeed the girl next to me once." Cheng Wanwan said without hesitation, "But she is not the daughter of a poor family as Madam Luo said. Like me, she is a farmer's daughter. She followed me because she had no other options. No matter she is a farmer's girl or a maid, she is my niece recognized by Zhao Cheng. If she takes my surname, she is the one I protect. !”
The tone was light, yet resounding, with an air that was undeniable.
"Well said." Mrs. Shen came from not far away and said, "Girl Fang was once a peasant girl, and General He was also a country warrior. They are a perfect match."
"Who says it's not?" Mrs. Ruan said with a smile, "Besides, what's wrong with the peasant girl, what's wrong with the maid, anyone who has the ability can stand out like Mrs. Sui."
Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Zhang and others gathered around and expressed their opinions.
The ladies of the He family looked a little embarrassed and did not dare to say anything.
Mrs. He's fingers slowly loosened the handkerchief. She really didn't expect that after everyone knew her daughter-in-law's identity, instead of ridiculing and ridiculing them, they would help to rescue her... Of course, it was not for her sake, but because of Mrs. Sui. .
It turns out that Mrs. Sui's influence in the circle of ladies is so great.
She breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly: "I only have one son, Xiao'er. The wife Xiao'er chooses is my half daughter. I will definitely protect her like a daughter."
Hearing this, Luo Qi's shoulders relaxed suddenly, and the light in his eyes slowly dimmed.
Her ability to enter and leave the He family relies on the bloodline left by He Ling, and her former mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship with Mrs. He... But because of what she said today, because she allowed Jun'er to talk nonsense, her reputation was ruined. , and also ruined the friendship with Mrs. He. If I want to come to the He family again in the future, I am afraid it will be harder than climbing to heaven...
When Luo Qi was in despair, the sound of gongs and drums rang out from the door of the He family.
Zhao Sanniu immediately became happy: "Master and his wife are back, let's go for a walk and go out to watch the fun!"
The soldiers who came from the military camp immediately ran out of the door. There were loud gongs and drums outside, and the servants of the He family lit firecrackers in all directions, making it extremely lively.
At the gate, He Xiao got off his horse, walked to the sedan, kicked the sedan, and led the bride out amidst laughter.
He and Cheng Fang held hands with the big red flower silk cloth and walked side by side into the yard.
Among the crowd, Luo Qi's eyes suddenly turned red.
Many years ago, she had imagined this scene, imagining that she and He Xiao would get married... But then, she took a wrong step, so she made every mistake.
Looking back now, she doesn't understand why she was moved by He Ling's sweet words in the first place, and why she would rather be He Ling's continuation than betray He Xiao...
If she hadn't stolen He Xiao's token, He Ling would not have been able to accuse He Xiaoan of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and He Xiao would not have been living in Dahe Village, let alone know this peasant girl named Cheng Fang...
Her thoughts kept wandering back, thinking a lot, and she stood there blankly, blocking the door.
Countless people looked at her.
She was completely unaware.
He Xiao led Cheng Fang and walked to her. His face showed the joy of being a groom, but when he saw Luo Qi, the joy on his face dissipated a little.
His face was full of indifference: "Ms. Luo, give way."
"Oh, Madam Luo is in the way." Xipo waved her veil and said, "The bride and groom are about to pay their respects. Don't waste the auspicious time..."
Luo Qi woke up suddenly and quickly retreated to the side.
Her eyes were sore and she couldn't stay any longer, so she took her child's hand and left early.
No one present noticed her whereabouts. They all stared at the bride and groom as they worshiped, then were sent into the bridal chamber, and then the wedding banquet started...
