In the winter, Lu Erniang walked so hard that a layer of sweat broke out on her forehead.
She originally wanted to send away the five members of the Xu family and then come to find Concubine Sun to explain her sister's reply, but she was worried that she would think the matter was settled if she didn't hear from Concubine Sun.
She couldn't let Concubine Sun have the slightest misunderstanding about this kind of thing.
So I rushed over.
When Mrs. Sun's courtyard door appeared in front of her, Lu Erniang felt happy and then nervous. She couldn't help but think about many possibilities...
"Hey!"
"Madam, please slow down." The maid who was following saw her twisting her feet and stepped forward to help her.
Lu Erniang twisted her ankle without any pain, and strode forward without any pause, letting her maid hold her up.
"Madam, you are here, I will help you pass the news." The nun at the gate of the concubine's courtyard said with a salute.
"No need, I made an agreement with my mother-in-law, and she asked me to go in directly." After Lu Ershiyi finished speaking, she had already walked away.
Grandma couldn't help but be surprised. This lady is young, but she has always been calm in dealing with things. Why is she so impatient today?
Lu Eryi Niang adjusted her hair and clothes while walking in the corridor to ensure that she looked dignified. Before entering the house, she heard the sound of opera. She first asked the maid to pass the news outside the door, and then walked in slowly.
Seeing her coming, Mrs. Sun smiled and waved her hand to the singer.
"You guys go and take a break first, drink some tea, and then continue later."
Concubine Sun waved to Lu Erniang to sit in front of her. Before she could sit down, she asked, "What did your sister say?"
"Mother-in-law, don't worry." Lu Ershiyi stepped forward and took Taifei Sun's arm, and squeezed her hand skillfully.
She had adjusted her breathing before entering the house, and she didn't look anxious at the moment.
"Sister, she said that An An is the most intelligent and lovely lady she has ever seen. She has never seen such an education and appearance in Bianjing City. If we can become a family, it will definitely be a blessing for the Xu family."
Hearing this, Mrs. Sun nodded with satisfaction.
Lu Erniang continued: "She also said that neither of her sons are engaged. If An An can get along with someone, it would be best if they can get engaged. She will definitely treat An An like her own daughter. You know , my sister also chose her own husband back then, and she has always had this view on marriage."
First, I disagree with An An’s marriage to Xu Pingyi. Second, if the children can get along with each other, it would be best if they could get engaged, and she would not interfere.
Lu originally expressed it very directly, but Lu Erniang has always been smart, so she spoke very tactfully at this time.
As she spoke, she carefully looked at Taifei Sun's expression. At this moment, she saw the smile on the corner of Taifei Sun's mouth gradually disappearing, and her eyes gradually shifted from Taifei Sun's face to the porcelain bottle on the side.
Look at the porcelain vase from the beginning to the end, and from the end to the head.
If there is a storm, she, the granddaughter-in-law, should not bear the responsibility. She can only hide for a while.
Concubine Sun was a little surprised.
I didn't expect such a reply.
Didn't you agree?
So you gave an ambiguous word?
A few decades ago, the Qian family was still a royal family, with a distinguished status and strict upbringing.
Over the years, I have not sought status, but my family rules and mottos have not changed. I have continued to cultivate myself internally, and I have become more emblematic of the family.
The ladies I have trained over the years are getting better and better.
When a girl from the Qian family reaches the age of marriage, she will be asked to marry by many families, and everyone is proud to marry a girl from the Qian family.
As for the clan leader's daughter, she is worthy of being betrothed by hundreds of families.
The Xu family actually gave such a reply?
"You go ask Minister Xu again." Sun Taifei's expression changed for a moment and she said in a deep voice.
"I've already asked someone to tell Wulang and ask him to find out more from his brother-in-law."
Lu Erniang knew that her brother-in-law and sister should have similar attitudes towards this kind of matter, and Xu Shilang always respected his sister, so he would probably respect his sister's wishes in this matter.
"Mother-in-law, Xu Dalang is now working in Longzhou, and I don't know if it's appropriate to come back. But Xu Erlang is studying at Yingtianfu Academy. If he and An An meet often, the two of them might..."
Lu Erniang was interrupted by Concubine Sun when she was halfway speaking.
"The boy Erlang Xu is also very good, and I can see that he is a promising boy. But I just admire Xu Dalang's sincerity and the calmness in his movements. I have taken a liking to this child for a long time, but An'an's father saw that he was neither in business nor in officialdom, and he didn't want his daughter to marry such an idle man, so he never discussed the matter with the Xu family."
Because Xu Pingyi had been the one he had chosen for a long time, after Xu Pingyi entered the official career, Uncle Qian chose his favorite daughter to get married.
Lu Eryiniang didn't expect this to be the reason.
She guessed that Concubine Sun was attracted to Xu Dalang, but she didn't expect that it was not because of his appearance, but because of his temperament.
Dalang's indifference is indeed rare, but as a husband, this kind of indifference is not necessarily good, nor may it be suitable for An An.
She thought so, but didn't dare to say it.
Seeing the loss of the old man in front of me, I didn't know how to persuade him.
The room fell into silence, except for the smoke from the incense burner.
"Mother-in-law, this seems like the first time I heard you praise a junior like this." Lu Ershiyi said in a low voice, holding Tai Fei Sun's arm with both hands, as if to comfort her not to be sad.
"Of course, this kind of indifference has never been seen by me, an old woman, in the past few decades, except from your King Weng Zhongyi, and now I have seen it from Xu Dalang."
Thinking of the past, Mrs. Sun had a slight smile on her face.
She is seventy-six years old and has experienced a lot of ups and downs over the years, but there are only a few people who appreciate her.
Her husband, in order to protect the people from war, dedicated his territory to the Song Dynasty. From then on, he changed from a king to a king without real power.
For the sake of the people and the powerful position, he would not want it even if he said he didn’t want it.
He does not plan for his own rights, but only cares about the people.
This frankness and courage are what she appreciates and admires.
She had only loved this one person in her life.
"Where is the seventh child?" Sun Taifei asked after thinking for a long time.
Lu Erniang knew that the concubine was not asking anyone else, but Qian Wuye's father, Qian Weiyan, the seventh son of King Zhongyi.
"Dad, he also has guests to meet. He should have finished his meal now. I'll invite him over." Mother Lu twenty-one got up from the couch and said.
Concubine Sun looked at Lu Erniang. She also fell in love with this daughter-in-law. As expected, she became the housekeeper's wife of the Qian Mansion in Bianjing.
She has always had a good eye.
It's a pity that the Xu family's elder brother and the Qian family are not destined to be together.
Concubine Sun is very aware of the age difference between Xu Dalang and An An. If you want to have feelings while getting along, you need to at least know each other, and Xu Dalang is much older than An An, so the chance of this is too small.
"No need, I'm going to take a rest, I won't talk about this anymore." Concubine Sun looked tired.
His expectations were dashed, and he suddenly lost all strength.
Lu Erniang helped Sun Taifei lie down, then stepped back and exited.
She was in a hurry when she came, but now she goes back very slowly. There was not even a trace of smile on the bright face, which seemed to bring out the loneliness of Mrs. Sun.
