Chapter 93: Parents' Life
The sky is clear and the clouds are white.
The silence of autumn wind was swept into the yard from the wall, and the yellow leaves wrapped around the ground flew away.
The little maid held the broom and called out "Oh," and then looked at the fallen leaves spread all over the ground with a despair. She swept them together again with her fate.
The sound of running footsteps came from the backyard.
The little maid turned around and saw a tender yellow figure running past her eyes like a gust of wind. She turned around and asked with a smile:
"Can your mother and sister-in-law be there?"
The twelve laminar flowing clouds flew into a dance, and a fragrant and soft wind was rolled up, and a few fallen leaves jumped up mischievously, and then fell slowly.
"Miss?" The little maid was stunned, then smiled and rushed away Cheng Xi and said loudly, "It's inside!"
Suddenly someone knocked his head, and the little maid turned around and saw Mother Yuan staring at her and scolding:
"You should inform your wife at this time!"
The little maid stuck out her tongue and turned around, but Cheng Xi had already opened the curtain and crawled into the house.
Wang was leaning against the Arhat bed in the warm cabinet and talking to Chen Feng, holding a scroll of painting in his hand.
She heard the movement and looked up, then smiled deeply and said:
“…Look, it’s here.”
Chen Feng waved to Cheng Xi with a smile:
"Come and have a look."
Cheng Xi smiled brilliantly and hurriedly ran over to Wang. Seeing a strange rock flying slanted on the paper, the scenery of the curved peaks and the mountains were hustle and praised:
"My sister-in-law only had a few words, and Sister Luo painted the color of Tianmen Pass so vividly!"
Mrs. Wang looked at the painting and smiled.
The pattern is grand, relaxed and refreshing, and it is really hard to tell that it is written by a woman.
Those who learn painting should first value quality. Those who establish quality have a kind of upright outlook on the brush and ink - the writing is like the person, and the painting is the same.
She slowly put the painting aside, and began to think about it in her heart.
Last time, Shen Feng was entrusted to go to the Li family to meet Li Luo in person. Although he didn't praise her like Cheng Xi when he came back, he praised her very well.
Chen Feng has been in charge of the family affairs of the Hou Mansion for many years, and Wang trusts her vision very much.
Although the eldest daughter who lost her wives and the eldest daughter was afraid that she would not marry her, judging from the description of Cheng Xi and Chen Feng, this Li girl is a person with a personality, character and knowledge.
The most important thing is that she can hold Cheng Shi's heart.
As long as he can trap Cheng Shi, he can get married immediately, even if Li Luo doesn’t have a dowry!
Besides, she also has the top scholar brother of the imperial editor, so she will not worry about being unable to raise her status in the future.
Wang asked Cheng Xi:
"You said that Miss Li's family did not agree to your fourth brother because he didn't like him, but because he had some concerns?"
Cheng Xi smiled "ha" when he heard this, and gloated:
"That's what the fourth brother said anyway!"
Wang and Chen Feng couldn't help but look at each other, and when they both complained about Cheng, would they feel better? After all, they are full of talent and unyielding wealth, so it is normal for them to look down on Cheng.
Wang raised his face and reached out and poked Cheng Xi's forehead gently, saying:
"Don't make a fuss, be serious! Look...what does Miss Li have to the fourth brother?"
Cheng Xi quickly changed into a look and said seriously:
"Mother, no matter how miserable the Li family is, she is also a person who has been studying and polite since childhood. How could she not know that marriage matters need to follow the orders of parents and the words of the matchmaker? I saw that she was just worried that the families of our two families were too different, afraid that you and your father would not agree, and that the fourth brother would have a bad temper."
After hearing this, Wang wanted to hold his forehead.
Li Luo was not wrong with his concern. According to the worldly affairs, it is really unmatched and unlikely that the two families will get married. However, after thinking so much, why didn’t he expect that the person who wanted to marry was Cheng Shi.
What kind of secular reason will Cheng Shi tell you about?
He finally had a sweetheart, and this sweetheart was not a foreign barbarian, a famous prostitute, nor a rabbit man in the restaurant, but a serious and honest daughter of a scholar, and she was quite talented... Wang now only wants to go to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense.
"Are you sure? Don't turn around and I'll send someone to the door, it's a forced twist!" Wang said cautiously.
Cheng Xi almost choked on his saliva.
"I'll send someone... to the door?" She glared at Wang and murmured, "Would you be too anxious... not waiting for the fourth brother to come back?"
But Wang glanced at her and said:
"I'm just afraid you'll wait for a princess sister-in-law."
After hearing this, Cheng Xi immediately changed his mouth and said seriously:
"What you are talking about is that the only way to act resolutely is to be my general's sect!"
I completely forgot that Wang and Chen Feng’s husband were both civil servants.
However, Wang was not Cheng Shi after all. Mao said rashly that he would come to the door and asked for marriage. If she did not respect Li Luo, it would be difficult for Li Luo to enter the door in the future.
"I will go to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense these two days to ask for peace for your father and fourth brother." She looked at Cheng Xi and said, "You go and ask Miss Li, do she want to go to Xiangguo Temple to drink a cup of chrysanthemum tea."
Cheng Xi's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly:
"I'll ask now!"
As he said that, he ran away, causing Chen Feng to shake his head and laugh:
"...How come you have such a good spirit, coming and going every day!"
Whose daughter doesn’t have to take two steps to catch her?
Cheng Xi ran around like a monkey all day long and couldn't calm down for a moment, and always slipped out to play without any concentration.
If someone else said this, I was afraid that Wang would immediately lose his face, but Chen Feng, who saw Cheng Xi grow up and treated her as a half daughter, said that he was different.
The words of Shen Feng finally touched Wang's concern:
"You said Sister Xi is fifteen, why is she still like a child?" She sighed, "I know I should restrain her, but when I think that she will no longer be free when she gets married in the future, she will never be able to be cruel... My daughter Jiaojiao, didn't she get a slight sense of freedom when she was in her parents' home?"
Chen Feng couldn't laugh and cry when he heard this - his mother-in-law was decisive and shrewd in everything, and he was undecisive in educating his son, teaching his daughter-in-law, or even the means of controlling the inner house and mediating the officials.
I just want to be able to keep this baby little daughter by my life, so I wish I could keep it by my side for the rest of my life.
Chen Feng felt that this matter was unsolvable. Cheng Xi was fifteen years old. If her parents-in-law could be cruel, they would not be hesitant until now.
She smiled and comforted Wang:
"Don't worry, you will be your relative's uncle's family in the future, and now you have escaped from the clan, clean... Don't be afraid that Xiaojiu will be troubled in the future." She paused, "Besides, I see Brother Qian is very concerned about Xiaojiu."
Wang nodded, and now he felt that Wang Qian's marriage was suitable for his care.
She smiled and sighed:
"...It's a blessing for this silly child." She turned her mind back to the wedding on the way, "Remember to ask someone to quickly repair Luofengyuan, so that you can still be busy with buying a house!"
Chen Feng responded with a smile.
It was Wan Cheng Xi who came back and told Wang Li Luo with a smile that he agreed to the invitation from Xiangguo Temple.
Wang smiled.
Li Luo is willing to go, that is, he is determined. He is still worried about not finding the latest chapters of the novel?
