Chen and Tian Huaide returned to the county government office with faces full of joy. When they heard that Tian Minyan and his daughter were here, the smiles on their faces froze and became very ugly.
The name Tian Minyan, along with the people related to her, reminded her of the scene when Luo Shi was so scared that she peed her pants. That was Chen Xiuzhu's lifelong nightmare, a nightmare that she didn't even want to think about.
When Tian Minyan and the others arrived, she recalled that scene again, Luo Shi's ferocious, cold and fierce look, the cold knife shining with cold light, and the wet coolness under her crotch.
Mrs. Chen's face turned red and white. She took a few deep breaths. When she opened her eyes again, she had a proud look on her face. She was not afraid. As long as her sister Zhuang got close to the big tree, who would dare to look down on her?
Laughing at her?
"What is that country bumpkin doing here?" Tian Minzhuang asked with a pout.
When Tian Huaide heard that Tian Huairen was coming, he was stunned at first, then overjoyed, and strode towards the main room.
When Mrs. Chen saw him like this, she felt somewhat clear in her heart, but she also looked disapproving. She thought to herself, as long as Sister Zhuang falls in the favor of the young prince Yong'an, will she still worry about her future?
"Mom, let's go take a look." Tian Minzhuang also pulled Chen over.
The main room was full of people, except for the eldest son and his family. The old man was drinking and talking with the two brothers Tian Huairen, and even Erlang and Sanlang were joining in the fun.
Seeing Tian Huaide coming, Tian Huairen stood up and called "big brother".
Tian Huaide looked at Tian Huairen, and he was more enthusiastic than ever before, and said with a smile: "Third brother, why did you come here so quietly? If you had sent someone earlier, I would have sent someone to pick you up."
Then she turned to Tian Minyan: "Girl Yan has grown so big too."
Tian Minyan smiled sweetly and called: "Uncle." Then she saw Mrs. Chen and her daughter coming in with keen eyes, and her smile became even sweeter: "Auntie, eldest sister."
As soon as Mrs. Chen saw Tian Minyan's smile, she felt particularly dazzling and her scalp felt numb. The graceful and dignified noble smile instantly disappeared. She said with a stiff face: "Here we come."
Tian Minzhuang didn't know what was going on in his mother's heart. He first took a look at Tian Minyan and saw that she had changed from her usual rustic look. She was dressed fresh and sweet. He was a little jealous. He snorted and looked at Tian Minyan and asked, "Why are you here? You're not talking about death.
Don’t you want to come to our house too?”
"It's really heartbreaking for my eldest sister to say that. I haven't seen you for more than half a year. Doesn't my sister welcome me? She still looks down on me, a poor relative." Tian Minyan pretended to be sad and said: "My father and I just came to see grandpa.
Mom, if you’re not welcome, then let’s go, dad..."
"Sister Zhuang, why are you talking?" Tian Huaide suddenly became anxious after hearing this and said, "You sisters haven't seen each other for more than half a year. I took Yan Yatou to your room to talk. The two sisters also kissed each other."
"Who wants to be with this bastard..." Tian Minzhuang stopped when he heard this. His eyes widened, and he pouted and was about to protest. But when he saw the old man's displeased gaze, he shrank his neck and curled his lips, not happy.
Sit down.
Although Tian Huaide is an official, the most influential person in the family is Mr. Tian. Even Tian Minzhuang does not dare to make trouble in front of him.
"Is this Sister Yan? She's grown so big? You almost don't recognize her." Behind Tian Minzhuang and the others, a fair-faced man wearing green clothes and a red-blond hair crown walked in, looking at Tian Minyan with a smile.
ask.
The memory in Tian Minyan's mind suddenly started to work. This was Tian Minlin, the eldest son and grandson of Tian's family and the most precious golden pimple of Tian Minlin, who had failed the scholar exam several times.
"Brother, long time no see." Tian Minyan stood up and shouted with a smile, squinting and looking at Tian Minlin.
Sure enough, she is a child who has only studied and not done farm work for many years. Her hands and face are fair and fair, tsk tsk, much fairer than the Tian Minyan she just wore back then. Her figure is a bit thin, and she has a fan inserted into her waist.
He looks a bit like a handsome young man.
Tian Minyan understood in an instant what it means to have different fates for the same person. They are both descendants of the Tian family, and Tian Minlin, with the title of eldest son and legitimate grandson, is raised like a boudoir lady, without having to work, eat or drink.
Don't worry, there are still money. As for the children with two or three bedrooms, Tian Minyan and the others' eyes glowed green when they saw a piece of fat. As for going to the ground? Not to mention girls like Tian Minyan, who are as old as Xiaowu
I have to follow him to the ground.
Tian Minyan looked at Mr. Tian, his face was red from drinking, and when he saw Tian Minlin walking next to him, his eyes were full of kindness, so tender that he was almost dripping with water. She had never seen this before when looking at other descendants.
Tian Minlin and Tian Huairen exchanged a few words, then said they wanted to read a book and went back to the house.
Tian Minyan thought to herself, what else should I read? Don’t waste that little money.
"Third brother, I heard that you and Mrs. Yin of Shuntian Prefecture know each other. Is this true? I will introduce you to your elder brother sometime so that I can pay him a visit." After drinking for three rounds, Tian Huaide couldn't wait to ask.
Tian Huairen.
Tian Huairen was stunned for a moment, but before he could react, the old man said: "Lao San, if your eldest brother has this intention, you can take a lead and start walking around. In official circles, it is also good to recognize more people."
"Dad, there are differences between men and women. I have only seen Mrs. Liu from a distance and am not familiar with her. Only my mother and I can chat with her." Tian Huairen put down his cup and said.
As soon as these words fell, everyone's eyes fell on Tian Minyan, with disdain, jealousy, and calculations.
Tian Minyan smiled and said: "Unfortunately, uncle, Mrs. Liu just returned to Kyoto a few days ago. Taiping Town is just the old residence of the Liu family. I heard that she probably won't come back to Taiping Town for a long time."
Tian Huaide frowned, but before he could say anything, Jiang slammed the bowl down and said coldly: "It will cost your life if you introduce me to someone. It only takes one sentence to make up such a big lie.
Who are you trying to deceive?"
Tian Minyan didn't have a good-looking face like Tian Huairen, so she immediately suppressed her smile and said indifferently: "Mom, as you said, if you don't introduce me, it's just one sentence from me, why am I wasting my saliva on making up lies?
Mrs. Liu just left a few days ago. If Mom doesn’t believe me, she can go back to Taiping Town and ask people in person to see if I’m making up lies.”
"You damn girl, you're even more convinced by the General Assembly. Even if you say a few words to you, you'll be stunned." When Jiang was stabbed by her, she immediately became angry and cursed loudly.
Seeing Tian Minyan being scolded, Tian Minqing and Tian Minzhuang looked gloating, their eyes shining brightly.
Tian Huairen felt nervous when he saw his precious daughter being scolded. He looked at the old man and said, "Dad, what I said is right. Mrs. Liu has indeed returned to Kyoto."
The old man stopped Jiang and said, "Come on, if you don't scold me for three days, you'll feel itchy. We can't see such a big thing now, but we will see it in the future. The third child and the others will introduce it to them. The third child,
But like this?"
Tian Minyan sneered in her heart after hearing this. The old man was forcing them to agree. Hehe, as long as it was about the eldest son, he was extremely caring. The old man really did not change for a hundred years.
Tian Huairen didn't say anything, but Tian Minzhuang proudly took over the topic and said: "What does Mrs. Liu mean? Grandpa, tomorrow my brother and I will go to the poetry meeting organized by Prince Yong'an and his wife, if we can join the Prince's
Qingyan, does daddy still know Mrs. Liu?"
Tian Minyan looked over and saw a faint blush on her proud and excited face, and she raised her eyebrows, fearing that this poem would not be very simple.
"Sister, have you got the admission ticket? There are a few places, so take me with you, and I'll be a girl for you." Tian Minqing's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she asked with a flattering smile.
"Of course I have some friends. We just went to the banquet of the Crown Prince with the county magistrate's wife. The Crown Prince is very easy-going. She talked to me a lot and even called me Sister Zhuang." Tian Minzhuang said proudly.
With a smile, he looked sideways at Tian Minqing and said, "Take you there. Can you write poetry? Don't embarrass me."
"I can be your maid, good sister, please take me to the lotus terrace to see it." Tian Minqing begged, holding her arm with a shy face.
"Look at your virtue." Tian Minzhuang poked her forehead with a finger, and said with a reluctant look: "Okay, I will take you to see it." After that, he glanced at Tian Minyan again.
, eyes shining brightly, as if to say, please, please, please, I will take you there too.
Tian Minyan was amused, she just lowered her head and pretended not to see and didn't know what they were talking about. She was not curious at all. She picked up her chopsticks again and reached for the dishes on the table. Well, the fried spicy chicken tastes pretty good.
Tian Minzhuang saw that Tian Minyan didn't respond, and was neither curious nor jealous. He secretly resented it. He pushed Tian Minqing away, snorted, looked at Tian Minyan and said: "That lotus terrace is not something that ordinary people can enter. Ten Miles of Lotus
, that picture is so beautiful.”
Tian Minyan didn't seem to hear anything, and went to pick up the fried spicy noodles. Yokogawa seafood was indeed good. Tian Minzhuang was so angry that he was just a country bumpkin and didn't know the good stuff.
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Why did you win the favor of the prince?" The old man looked at Mrs. Chen and asked with a frown.
Mrs. Chen then covered her mouth and smiled and said: "The old man doesn't know something. This was originally just a poetry meeting organized by the prince. His wife got excited when she heard about it and invited some talented girls from aristocratic families to join in the fun. Tonight, the county magistrate's wife and I will
When I went to the banquet, I heard that the Crown Prince’s wife revealed that this was just a joke, and she seemed to want to find a talented girl for the Crown Prince to wear red sleeves to enhance the fragrance."
"Isn't that being a concubine?" Tian Minyan exclaimed.
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Tian's face became a little ugly. In this Tian family, there has never been a girl to serve as a concubine. As the saying goes, it is better to marry a wife of a small family than to be a concubine of a large family. There are not many concubines.
Someone who can stand out and not be pressured by the main wife?
"What's the point of being a concubine? Moreover, that is the crown prince of Yong'an Hou, and he will be Yong'an Hou in the future. Even if you are his concubine, it will be better than the head wife of an ordinary wealthy family." Tian Minzhuang snorted: "That's right.
The Fang family is nothing compared to being a patsy."
Doesn't the Fang family look down on her? When she becomes the prince's concubine in the future, let's see how she treats Fang Xian. Moreover, it seems that the prince's wife is not in very good health. If she dies, she might be able to gain another prince.
Madam is here.
"Sister, you don't want to be that prince's concubine, do you?" When Tian Minyan heard what she said, she immediately became ashamed and looked at Tian Minzhuang in shock.
This child was kicked in the head by a donkey, right? He is not a good wife, so he becomes someone else's concubine? How many concubines in this world can be obtained well from the main wife?
So what if you are the Marquis of Yong'an? Those who can be the wife of the Crown Prince are all born in the same family, but they don't have any skills to settle down in the huge Marquis' mansion? With your Tian Minzhuang's way of doing things, your ideas are as scheming as a little ant.
, not even enough to watch.
Tian Minzhuang thought it was one thing, but it was another thing to be exposed by Tian Minyan in front of her. When she asked this straightforward question, her face turned red and she stammered: "What are you talking about? I don't know.
You may not like me." As if she had made it clear, she said angrily: "What do you know, a village girl? Have you heard that you would rather be a concubine of a wealthy family than marry a poor man?"
Yes, what I said was that I really wanted to fly a moth into a flame. Tian Minyan was speechless for a while. Tian Minzhuang's ideal was really... great enough.
"Sister Zhuang, what did my mother teach you? It's not shameful for a eldest girl to talk about concubines and whether to marry them or not." Mrs. Chen scolded her in a deep voice.
"Haha, if Sister Zhuang has such good fortune, I can make a fortune as the son-in-law." Tian Huaide narrowed his eyes with a smile and stroked a few goatees.
Tian Minyan twitched the corner of her mouth and thought to herself, you are the kind of person who sells his daughter for glory and pushes his daughter into the hot bed.
She clicked her tongue, but noticed that no one in the second room said a word. Could it be that she had changed her temper? Looking at Tian Minqing, she saw her eyes rolling around, and her hands on the table were clenched into small fists.
He was paying attention to something, but Mr. Li's eyes were bright.
No, these two people wouldn't have the same idea as Tian Minzhuang, right?
"I heard that the prince is now thirty years old, and there are quite a lot of concubines in the family." Mr. Tian was silent for a moment and then said: "Our Tian family has no example of being someone's concubine. Sister Zhuang is also young, so don't do it.
Silly, find someone of the same age so that you can last forever."
After all, the old man was not obsessed with wealth. He looked at Mrs. Chen seriously and said: "Sister-in-law, you can also treat me as a snack. Find someone similar and make a decision. Don't delay the child."
"Grandpa, the prince is thirty, but I heard that he is very handsome and young." Tian Minzhuang seemed to have concluded that he would become a concubine tomorrow, and immediately spoke for the prince Yong'an Hou.
"Sister Zhuang, you are becoming more and more shameless. Go back to your room." Mrs. Chen shouted, then looked at the sullen old man and said, "Don't worry, old man, I will make plans for her. I am her relative."
Mother, how can I not think about her? "This marriage is destined by God. It is hers and cannot escape. It is not her request and she cannot ask for it, right?"
Tian Minyan looked at it coldly. She didn't see anything like this at all. Then she looked at the silent second room and thought to herself, tomorrow's poetry meeting will probably be a good show.
The author said that as long as time and body allow, he will update more and rush towards the completion as soon as possible. No explanation, cough~
