The look on Fu Laiqing's face changed. He was just straight-tempered, not really stupid. After Cao Dejiang said this, he suddenly remembered that before he went out that day, he had indeed met Fu Jinrou. At that time, Fu Jinrou and he rarely came back. Sisters talk together.
…
"Brother, are you going out?"
"Yes, that boy Qi Cheng held a banquet at Yunlin Garden today and invited some friends to get together."
"Then go and don't get drunk."
…
At that time, my sister just said a few words to him casually, and after a few instructions, she let him go. Later, after drinking for three rounds, he, Qi Cheng, and He Xiaolangjun went out to sober up, and they heard someone say that a girl was getting up not far away. A dispute broke out, and Qi Cheng, who was always very lively, pulled them over to watch the fun, and then heard the words of the Chai family girl humiliating Fu Jinrou.
At that time, the daughter of the Chai family spoke extremely unpleasantly, and Fu Jinrou cried so aggrievedly that he banged the door in anger.
Yunlin Garden is one of the few places in Beijing where you can go horse racing, drink, enjoy flowers and watch theater. It is not strange for a gentleman or a lady with some wealth to hold a banquet there and invite friends to a gathering, so he has never thought about why Fu Jinrou will appear there.
Later, although the Chai family girl cried hard and tried to defend him several times, because he heard her humiliating words about Fu Jinrou with his own ears and saw the red slap marks on Fu Jinrou's face, he became angry and The man returned home.
When my grandmother knew this, she was extremely angry and immediately broke off the marriage.
The Chai family wanted to come to apologize several times, but the grandmother never showed up. Later, probably because they saw that the Fu family was disgusted, the Chai family stopped. However, the Fu family and the Chai family almost became enemies.
Later, whenever the Chai family matter was mentioned, Fu Jinrou would shed tears of grievance. He felt sorry for the little girl who was being humiliated, and his grandmother also took pity on her, so she never mentioned it again.
Fu Laiqing gritted his teeth. He was so angry that he was dizzy. But now that he thought about it, the Chai family's family status was not as good as that of the Fu family. What's more, there was the Cao family behind the Fu family. It was too late for the Chai family to be happy to marry them. Why? You wouldn't be stupid enough to offend them like that.
Is there really a secret behind this?
Fu Laiqing stood up with a swish: "I'm going to find Chai Yang!"
"Aqing..."
Mrs. Fu saw him turn around and went out angrily, just about to speak out to save others.
Cao Dejiang stopped her: "Let him go."
Mrs. Cao: "Brother..."
"I know what you're worried about, but Qing's temper needs to be tempered."
Cao Dejiang sighed lowly: "He has an upright character and can't fault him, but sometimes it's not a good thing to be too honest. As long as he can be rational about the Chai family, even if he understands the whole story and gets angry, he won't be punished. People have been deceived to this extent, and you also feel guilty for it."
"He caused this matter himself. Let him find out for himself. Only by experiencing it personally can he remember what it means to be unpredictable."
If you want to be an official in the government, it is not enough to be upright and full of knowledge. When the official position is higher in the future, you will encounter more things, and intrigues and schemes will never stop.
If Fu Laiqing doesn't wake up, something will happen sooner or later.
Cao Dejiang even regretted teaching his grandnephew to be too upright.
"It's just a girl's scheming right now. It's better to suffer a loss and improve your memory."
Although Mrs. Fu was a little worried, she also knew that what her elder brother said was reasonable. When she thought of Fu Jinrou, her face turned bad and she couldn't help but ask in a low voice:
"Brother, Xiao Yan told Fu Jinrou about Qiao Qing's entry into the palace. Did he want to..."
"He didn't think anything of it!"
Cao Dejiang interrupted Mrs. Fu in a cold voice: "Since the palace intends to grant a marriage, your family will get the news sooner or later even if Xiao Yan doesn't tell her. If Fu Jinrou really remembers her gratitude, she will naturally not do anything, but if she gets up Other thoughts have nothing to do with Xiao Yan."
Cao Dejiang seems to be a good old man on weekdays, he is sympathetic to all living beings and does not get angry easily.
But when he became indifferent, he was no less generous than Xiao Yan.
For him, the reason why he takes care of the Fu family and protects the younger generations of the Fu family is all because of his sister's relationship. He cannot bear to see the Fu family dragging her down and making her unable to live in peace in her later years. Apart from that, what does the rest of the Fu family have to do with him? ? So what is Fu Jinrou?
Cao Dejiang was indifferent: "People are always responsible for their own lives. If she chooses a path she shouldn't take, she will be responsible for any consequences. She cannot blame others."
Being a royal nobleman is not that easy.
If she really stretched out her claws.
He didn't mind giving her a ride.
Mrs. Fu looked at her brother who was particularly cold and stern, she was silent for a moment and whispered: "That's what the eldest brother said."
She would not take the initiative to harm a little girl, but if the little girl had malicious intentions from the beginning and wanted to climb up by stepping on her relatives, then she would not care what happened to her. She was not a repaying evil with kindness. good old man.
…
Xiao Yan is not worried at all about the affairs of the Fu family. Cao Dejiang has been immersed in the court for most of his life and he has already reminded him that he can't even scheme against a teenage girl. , then he would be in vain.
When he returned to Jiuyun Lane, Tang Ning, who was catching up on his sleep, had already woken up.
She was nestled beside the carp jumping platform, throwing fish food into the lake. The lake below was full of fish, and fish of all kinds gathered together to fight for each other.
Someone held his waist, and the next moment there was a familiar cold and relaxed atmosphere.
"what to do?"
Xiao Yan squeezed next to her, not disliking the narrow edge of the fence at all. He lowered his head and looked at the round fish in the lake below that were competing for them and were much fatter than before.
Xiao Yan said with a smile: "Feed less, they won't be able to swim anymore."
Tangning took the fish food and turned around: "Brother."
Even though it had happened countless times, Xiao Yan still couldn't help but feel his heart swell every time he saw the little girl's almond-shaped eyes filled with joy when she saw him.
Kissed her cheek: "You didn't even get any rest last night, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"I've been sleeping for a long time. Brother didn't call me when he left."
It seemed like a complaint, but with a hint of coquettishness.
Xiao Yan hugged her and said, "I went to Fu's house for something. I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't call you."
Tang Ning was confused: "Fu family?"
Xiao Yan chuckled: "If we want to get married, we must have a blessed person as the guest of honor. I took Mr. Cao and went with me to invite Mrs. Fu."
Tang Ning's cheeks were slightly hot: "Did the old lady agree?"
Xiao Yan: "Of course I agreed. In a few days, I will ask her to propose marriage on my behalf."
"You should also discuss with your aunt whether you should come to Tang Mansion or Rong Mansion when you see them. I can catch the wild geese and raise them first."
When proposing marriage and making an appointment, Hongyan is the gift.
Tang Ning was a little shy, but also a little happy, and whispered: "Okay."
