After listening to the gossip about the Leng family and the Meng family told by Xue Mingzhu and others, Chen Yu asked, "Leng Ruohan was given up like this?"
Although she asked this, she understood it quite well.
The son who had placed high hopes on him since he was a child actually did something that brought shame to the family for the sake of a woman. He did not show his extraordinary ability, so it was natural for him to be given up.
But Chen Yu also felt that Leng Ruohan should be a little confident.
He is the eldest son. Even if the family is divided in the future, he will be able to get the largest share of the family property. Even if he inherits the connections of the General's Mansion and becomes the most valued son of his parents in the future, he will still be able to get the largest share.
family property.
If that's the case, then why can't he be with the one he loves as he pleases?
Even though it is impossible for him to inherit the connections of the General's Mansion in the future, he has so much property and is sweet with his beloved, so what's wrong with you and me?
Chen Xun: Should I say that Leng Ruohan is smart? Or not?
"It doesn't matter that he was given up. After all, he is still a junior loved by his elders." Xue Mingzhu said.
Leng Ruohan has been favored since he was a child and doted on by his family elders since he was a child. How could he be abandoned just because he married Mu Qianqian?
The most important thing is that Mu Qianqian is the favored girl of the Mu family next door. Is it possible that the Leng family dares to bully them?
If Mu Qianqian was really wronged and went to Mu's house next door to cry, wouldn't her parents and brother support her?
The family backgrounds of the Mu family and the Leng family are very similar.
"It's such a pity, Miss Meng." One of Xue Mingzhu's little sisters sighed.
"It's not a pity. Isn't Miss Meng already far away from Chang'an? She also married a good husband." Another little sister said.
"Yes, Miss Meng's husband is already a seventh-grade captain at the age of twenty-two. He can be considered young and promising."
At least compared to Leng Ruohan, who is still white, Meng Lianyi's husband is indeed young and promising.
Yes, Meng Lianyi's husband is twenty-two this year. The reason why he married at such an old age is because he has continuously observed filial piety.
This family member can be considered a general. He has been in the army since his grandfather's generation, and he also joined the army in his generation. However, his grandfather suffered too much in his early years and died early.
So Meng Lianyi's husband-in-law first paid filial piety to his grandfather and failed to discuss marriage. Later, his grandmother was too sad after the death of his grandfather and died after a year or two.
Meng Lianyi's husband has kept filial piety for six consecutive years, so he only got married now.
This husband-in-law was personally selected by Meng Lianyi's father. His character and appearance were also very good, so Meng Lianyi would not have to suffer any injustice by marrying him.
The most important thing is that this man is a captain under Meng's father. After his daughter marries him, Meng's father can often know his daughter's current situation.
Meng Lianyi's current marriage can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

"Where's Miss Xue? I heard that good things are about to happen for you?" Chen Yu looked at Xue Mingzhu with a smile and asked.
Xue Mingzhu and Geng Hongyi are also about to get engaged. I heard that the elders of both parties have already passed on Na Cai, and then they asked for names, Na Ji and Na Zheng.
In ancient times, there were six rites in weddings, namely, accepting a gift, asking for a name, accepting a gift, accepting a wedding invitation, asking for an appointment, and being personally welcomed. After these six rites, the wedding was considered completed.
Like Chen Xun, when she first got married, it was an urgent matter, and it took Liuli two or three months to get through it.
Meng Lianyi and the others were the same this time. It was also because of such a thing that they finished the six rites quickly and completed the wedding quickly.
When you get to Xue Mingzhu and Geng Hongyi, you have to leave slowly.
After Nacai and Wenming are over, the remaining four rituals may take another year and a half. The wedding may not be done within a year, but may not be done until the second half of next year.
wedding.
When Xue Mingzhu was asked this question by Chen Yu, even though she had a carefree personality, she couldn't help but blush on her face.
"Almost..." Xue Mingzhu said a little shyly.
Chen Yu nodded, and she didn't ask anything why Xue Pingli, Xue Mingzhu's brother, had not married yet, and why he got engaged so quickly and started going through the six rites.
Xue Pingli's marriage has not yet been settled, how could it delay Xue Mingzhu?
When Chen Yun thought of this, she couldn't help but think of Yan Long. Xue Pingli probably liked Yan Long, right? But it seemed that he didn't say it openly.
I just don't know if Xue Pingli can convince himself and then ask his family to ask if he can ask to marry the eighth princess.
Xue Mingzhu also thought about this problem. As Xue Pingli's biological sister, the relationship between the brother and sister was very good. Of course she knew what her brother was thinking.
Xue Mingzhu asked Chen Yu secretly, "Princess, do you know about the eighth princess, Long'er's marriage? What are your plans for the noble concubine?"
Xue Mingzhu really likes Yan Long. If this friend becomes her sister-in-law, she will definitely support her 120,000 yuan.
The eighth princess has a very high status. Even though she is not Emperor Yun Zhao's favored daughter, she is still a very noble princess.
If her sister-in-law is the eighth princess, then her relatives will not dare to act like monsters anymore.
Of course, although Xue Mingzhu initially came into contact with Yan Long with such thoughts, after this period of contact, she really liked Yan Long.
She also very much hopes that Yan Long can become her sister-in-law.
"Long'er?" Chen Xun smiled and said, "The imperial concubine hopes that she will stay for another year or two. I don't know much about her marriage."
Concubine Yun Gui is not in a hurry to find a son-in-law for her daughter, and as a sister-in-law, she has no intention of finding a husband for her sister-in-law.
"Really? Is this what the imperial concubine planned?" Xue Mingzhu asked.
"Long'er is only twenty-eight this year. According to the imperial concubine's wishes, it is okay for Long'er to consider marriage when she is twenty-nine."
Anyway, the emperor's daughter has no worries about getting married, and Yan Long's marriage is indeed not in a hurry.
Marrying at the age of sixteen is still too early, and the Yong Dynasty did not limit the age of marriage.
Unlike some dynasties, the law stipulated that men and women must get married at a certain age, otherwise they would either have to pay taxes or be forced into marriage by the government.
There was no law forcing marriage in the Yong Dynasty, so you could get married whenever you wanted - but due to world conditions, you would basically get married early and have children early.
It doesn't matter whether Yan Long gets married at eighteen or twenty.
Even if she doesn't want to get married, the royal family can't afford to raise a princess - Yan Lizhou, the elder brother, can't afford to raise a younger sister.
Of course, Chen Yun would not say that she was adopted as a sister-in-law. This was Yan Lizhou's biological sister and not her biological sister. She would not take on such a thing.
Xue Mingzhu didn't know what kind of expression to put on when she heard this.
From her brother's side, she really hopes that Yan Long can marry her brother as soon as possible. After all, the family puts a lot of pressure on her brother.
But from her friend Long'er's side, she felt that when she wanted to get married was her own business, and she, an outsider, had no right to comment.
She is really conflicted.
"Let nature take its course. Miss Xue, it's better not to think too much." Chen Yu glanced at Xue Mingzhu and persuaded her with a smile when she saw her conflicted look.
It’s unclear whether Xue Pingli and Yan Long are destined to be together. Maybe Xue Pingli will marry someone else in the end? Maybe Yan Long will marry someone else in a year or two, or maybe she doesn’t plan to marry?
Who can say for sure what will happen in the future? Why bother yourself now?
Xue Mingzhu looked at her expression, thought for a while and nodded.
Forget it, let him worry about her brother's marriage. As a younger sister, it is impossible for her to pressure her brother to go to the bride's house.
As a younger sister, she had better not worry about her elder brother as a mother.
