How could the old man not know that the boy was talking to him in an official tone? He couldn't help but snorted: "You said it was a joke that you wanted to use a rooster to worship Ting'er on the day of your wedding. What about the wedding ceremony?"
What the old man said was, of course, that he did not personally come out to welcome the bride.
Ji Chenxue had long expected that if she came to visit today, she would be questioned, so she had already thought of her words on the way. After hearing this, she explained unhurriedly: "Grandpa also saw it.
Xue's white hair is very eye-catching. The reason why she didn't come to welcome her in person was because she didn't want others to make irresponsible remarks about it. Xue knew she was wrong and came here today. Firstly, she accompanied the Crown Princess back home, and also
I also want to apologize to my grandfather and father-in-law for this matter, and I hope to be able to ask for their forgiveness."
When he said this, the old man couldn't find any reason to continue to blame him. It wasn't that there was really no reason, but the current situation was that the future of the Hou Mansion was unclear. It was inconvenient to point to Prince Heng's Mansion to protect his granddaughter.
Just for the sake of anger, I offended the grandson-in-law in front of me. Besides, it only takes a few clicks to raise an army to accuse him. If he really broke his heart, the only one who would be difficult to do it would be his granddaughter.
After all, that girl has already married into the palace, and will be a member of the palace from now on, and she will live under her husband's family.
Although he knew that the boy's explanation and apology were not sincere, he had no choice but to go down the steps, "Since it was a misunderstanding, let's let this matter go. Ting'er is the most precious granddaughter of my Hou family.
It is the pride of our Marquis Mansion. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also as smart and energetic as any other man. Since she has chosen you, I hope the prince can treat her well in the future." Finally, he said to the outsiders: "Okay.
It’s not too early now, let’s order someone to pass on the food!”
A turmoil that was about to start ended so early.
Liu Pinting knew in her heart that the reason why the old man was willing to give up so easily was all because of the fifth prince's matter. He was worried about her future life in the palace, and was afraid that if she lost the support of the Hou family, she would lose her position in the palace.
Life will be difficult.
It seems that he really has no confidence at all about the fifth prince forcing his way into the palace. Otherwise, the old man's temperament would never give up so easily.
Thinking of this, Liu Pinting couldn't help but worry about the family in front of her and the upcoming fate of the Hou Mansion.
Since the new daughter-in-law could not stay at her parents' house, Ji Chenxue and Liu Biting did not stay too long after eating. After sitting for a while, they said goodbye to the old Marquis and the Marquis, and prepared to go back to the palace.
The old Marquis of Jingguo personally sent the two of them out. Liu Pinting could feel the worry in the old man's eyes, and her mind couldn't help but sink. But at this time, apart from making her life better, there seemed to be nothing she could do to help.
Nothing else to do.
Before the carriage left, Liu Pinting reluctantly opened the curtain and looked out. She accidentally saw the old man's slightly white temples, and a trace of sadness emerged in her heart.
The once high-spirited old man seemed to have suddenly become much older.
In the carriage, the two of them were still sitting on one side as when they arrived, but Liu Pinting did not read anymore, nor did she take the initiative to provoke anyone.
Firstly, she didn't have the intention, and secondly, she really didn't know what to say. Not to mention that certain person looked like he was keeping away from strangers. Even though she originally wanted to say something, she couldn't say it at this time.
