After Mrs. Zhao and Xu Lang sat down, the maid brought tea, and then Chen Siwen came up to say hello.
"Siwen went to my house that day and was supposed to come back immediately. His uncle insisted on keeping him for a few days. He was asking for my pulse and helping his uncle copy ancient books. He was really exhausted. My sister-in-law knew that his uncle
Among the ancient books, he is the most truthful. It is said that besides himself, only Si Wen has the best calligraphy." Xu Lang said before Zhao could attack Chen Si Wen, "We usually say that the sister-in-law is the luckiest.
The two sons are not only filial, but also motivated, and no one outside would be envious of them."
Chen Qin had previously sent someone to tell his brother and sister-in-law that Chen Siwen was staying at his house.
The Zhaos naturally knew what was going on, but there was no need to tell the truth at this time.
"You should stop praising him! This kid looks okay, but in fact he is the most left-wing, and he is as stubborn as a cow!" Of course Mrs. Zhao would not get angry with her own son, and with Xu Lang beside her, such a situation
It's over now.
Chen Siwen also smiled and stepped back, letting his aunt and mother talk.
Mrs. Zhao first asked about Xu Lang's health and then about her daily life.
After talking for a long time, Xu Lang got to the point.
"There are times when Si Jing is too busy with official duties to take care of marriage affairs. Si Wen is not young anymore, so it's time to discuss marriage." Xu Lang took a sip of tea and said.
Hearing this, Ms. Zhao sighed, dismissed all the maids around her, and said, "We don't have to hide it from our own family. Why he came to your place must have been told to his uncle and you.
Already."
"Siwen, this kid never lies." Xu Lang smiled.
"He has his heart set on Cen Yunchu, and neither your brother nor I are willing to do so," Zhao said.
"It was inevitable that I didn't want to do it some time ago," Xu Lang said. "Isn't my sister-in-law still unwilling now?"
"It's hard to raise a talented girl!" Mrs. Zhao said, "The Cen family is a proud and arrogant master with a sharp edge. You know her mother. We are about the same age. It was common in our early years. I don't like it.
Her temperament."
"Miss Cen's family is indeed a little different, but her heart is excellent." Xu Lang said, "How can anyone in this world be perfect? That child is considered outstanding, and she will not give it to our family after she is married.
Shameful."
"Speaking of shame, have you heard about the third young lady of the Lu family?" Zhao asked in a lowered voice.
"The third young lady in his family is the girl from the Zhou family, right?" Xu Lang said, "I got up early and heard a few words, but I didn't ask in detail because I was busy."
"Isn't it because Zuo Zhengqing gave her a good fortune that she married into the Lu family?" Zhao said, "It's only been more than a year since she entered the family, and the child she gave birth to is not even a hundred days old! According to the government,
She went to court to confront her, do you think the Lu family would let her go? Besides, she couldn't afford to lose face. I heard that she had to hold the child for a long time before closing the door and committing suicide."
"This is really pitiful and deplorable." Xu Lang, who was about to become a mother, felt uncomfortable after hearing this. "So women must have good conduct, otherwise, there will be no way to survive."
"The Lu family member was also divorced and returned home. Her parents' family refused to allow her to stay, saying they wanted to send her to the family temple to practice cultivation." Mrs. Zhao sighed, "How shameless she was back then, now she is so embarrassed.
"
"So, having said that, the most important thing for the Cen family girl is that she is innocent. Based on this, there will be less gossip."
"I really admire this little girl. She is really able to handle things at such a young age," said Zhao.
"Actually, Siwen is most like his uncle. He looks gentle, but is actually very stubborn. If he identifies someone, he won't change it no matter what he says. Even if our elders make the decision for him and find a nine-day fairy to come down to earth, he will
Even if I don’t like it, it’s hard to get over it after all!” Xu Lang said.
"I don't know what's going on with the men of the Chen family. They have been in love for generations." Ms. Zhao was angry and laughing at the same time.
"Sister-in-law, you are the smartest. You naturally know that no one is perfect in this world, and nothing is perfect. We are getting married to the Cen family. Firstly, we have the same family, so we will not humiliate our family. Secondly, these two children are also extremely
They are a perfect match. Together they make a perfect couple." Xu Lang said with a smile, "If my sister-in-law agrees with him, Siwen will be grateful and will be more filial to you. Besides, you have always loved your children the most, how could you really not agree?
Woolen cloth!"
"Brother and sister, what you are talking about is, which parent doesn't want his children to be satisfied! I'm just angry that he made such a fuss with the family because of a woman he has never met a few times. He doesn't understand the parents' painstaking efforts and is just being willful.
." Zhao said a little aggrievedly.
"So if you don't raise a child, you don't know your parents' kindness. When they have their own children, they will know how hard you have worked." Xu Lang said, "Speaking of which, my sister-in-law raised her son very well. Siwen's vision is not ordinary.
, if he is interested in the Meng family, it will be difficult to deal with him."
Mrs. Zhang looked smiling on the outside, but she was a little scared in her heart. If Chen Siwen was interested in Meng Qiao at that time, she might actually agree.
After all, the Lu family also married the daughter of a fifth-rank official family. Although Meng Qiao was a commoner, his family still had the reputation of being an Earl's Palace.
Meng Qiao could even enter the gate of the county prince's palace, so why couldn't he enter the Chen family's gate?
Although she didn't like Cen Yunchu very much in her heart, compared with Meng Qiao, Cen Yunchu was much better in every aspect.
"That said, I don't know if this marriage can happen." Zhang said, "I'm afraid there are a lot of people going to the Cen family to propose marriage now."
"So sister-in-law must make a decisive decision and not delay the opportunity." Xu Lang said with a smile, "Why did I vaguely hear someone saying that the Zeng family also intends to go to the Cen family to propose marriage! Our family and the Zeng family have always been good, they must not know how to think about it.
Ask Miss Zhong Qingcen, if they succeed first, wouldn't Siwen regret it for the rest of their lives? If that happens, the two families will probably become enemies."
Mrs. Zhao was not stupid. She knew that she could not defeat her son, so she had to rely on him in the end.
If she delays going, the Cen family makes a promise to another family, and if Chen Siwen is like his uncle and waits for his sweetheart to remain unmarried for the rest of his life, then she will be troubled.
So he said: "Then I will discuss it with the Marquis later. If he agrees, I will find two official matchmakers. I have to bother my brothers and sisters to go there. You are heavy and shouldn't have to worry about it, but
Apart from you, I really can't find anyone more suitable."
Xu Lang fully agreed: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, leave this matter to me. If you go around me and find someone else, I will still be angry!"
Xu Lang is extremely reliable in everything he does or says. Moreover, Cen Yunchu and Xu Chunjun are close friends, so it is most appropriate for her to take the initiative.
