Mrs. Chen endured it again and again, and then she remembered the letter written by Marquis Dingbei, and swallowed her anger.
If Chen Yaying's matter is not handled well, there will definitely be a lot of unpleasant things to say when Marquis Dingbei comes back.
Mrs. Chen took a deep breath and asked, "Have you mentioned it over there? Is my uncle's cousin willing?"
Although what happened with Chen Yaying was a misunderstanding and a deliberate frame-up by the Shen family.
But this matter will still become a stain on Chen Yaying.
Those who are more arrogant will look down on Chen Yaying no matter how good her background is.
Chen Yayuan was in a very good mood: "Everyone knows that he said that the fourth sister could not help herself and was a poor person. He would not mind."
Mrs. Chen's expression softened a little.
If Chen Yaying's engagement issue can really be resolved, then she can feel a little more relaxed.
Moreover, Chen Yaying was the one who brokered this marriage. If anything bad happens in the future, it will not be her fault.
After figuring out these twists and turns, Mrs. Chen's tone became much lighter: "That's good. Let's find an opportunity for the two children to meet."
Although the important thing about marriage is the parents' order and the matchmaker's words, basically, more enlightened families will let the two people meet before marriage.
If there is really no destiny, then the marriage can only be abandoned.
Chen Yayuan put a handkerchief on the corner of her mouth to hide the smile on her lips, "Mother, don't blame me for making the decision without authorization. In fact, I brought the person here today."
Mrs. Chen was startled for a moment, and then realized that Chen Yayuan was not discussing with her at all, but was here to inform her.
She was more confused than angry.
Chen Yayuan, who has always had a temperament like dough, why has she become tougher in her work?
Chen Yayuan asked: "Mother, are you blaming me?"
Seeing Mrs. Chen's strange expression, Mother Chen was afraid that Mrs. Chen would say something unpleasant and angry, so she hurriedly smiled and smoothed things over: "How could it be? It's too late for Madam to be happy. My aunt doesn't know that the Fourth Miss is having troubles in her marriage, and Madam is also unhappy.
It breaks my heart."
Mrs. Chen came back to her senses.
The most important thing now is to marry Chen Yaying as soon as possible. We can talk about other things later.
Mrs. Chen burst out laughing, "I won't blame you, just take Sister Ying out for a walk."
"Thank you, mother."
Chen Yayuan went out.
After Chen Yayuan went out, Mrs. Chen's face instantly darkened, "This second aunt is really amazing now."
Mrs. Chen echoed: "That is, since her mother-in-law committed a crime and left, it is said that the inner residence of the Shao family is the aunt's house. Hasn't that changed?"
Mrs. Chen sneered, "She loves to toss, so just let her do it."
After that, Mrs. Chen took off the jewelry from her bun and went to take a nap.
After Chen Yayuan went out, she originally wanted to find Chen Yaying, but then she thought about it and went to Fu Zhao's place.
She opened the door and went in. When she saw that it was quiet inside, she didn't go back inside.
Liangsui came out, saluted Chen Yayuan, and then said softly: "What's the matter with Second Miss? My master is taking a nap."
Chen Yayuan also lowered her voice: "Since you are taking a nap, I won't disturb you."
Just as Chen Yayuan was about to turn around and go out, she heard Fu Zhao's voice from behind the screen, "I'm already awake. Second sister, please come in."
Chen Yayuan had no choice but to walk around the screen and walked in, smiling sheepishly: "I disturbed your nap."
Fu Zhao sat up and said, "It doesn't matter. I'll take a nap on the carriage when I go back. What's the matter with Second Sister coming to see me?"
Although she was very sleepy, she was used to being sleepy all day long.
Chen Yayuan told Fu Zhaoting everything she said to Mrs. Chen, "I'm afraid it would be too intrusive for me to take my fourth sister there alone. I came here to ask you to come with me."
Seeing Fu Zhao's hesitation, Chen Yayuan said quickly: "Don't worry, I will take care of everything. You just need to walk with me, and you don't have to worry about anything else. My father also wrote a special letter about the fourth sister.
Give it to me, I'm the one who pulled the strings."
Fu Zhao pursed his lips and smiled: "Since the second sister has said so, I will accompany the second sister for a trip."
"Okay, let's go find the fourth sister right now."
The two went to Chen Yaying's place. As soon as they entered the room, they saw Chen Yaying sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze.
Axiu came over to salute the two of them, glanced at Chen Yaying, and then said bitterly: "The young lady has always been like this these days. When the servant asked her, she refused to say anything."
Fu Zhao knew in his heart that it was Shen Han's matter that left a shadow in Chen Yaying's heart.
Axiu walked over and said a few words to Chen Yaying, and then Chen Yaying noticed that Fu Zhao and Chen Yayuan had come over.
Chen Yaying stood up and walked over, "Why are the second sister and fifth sister-in-law here?"
Chen Yayuan took Chen Yaying's hand and said, "Come with us for a walk. You will feel bored even if you are alone in the house."
Chen Yaying gave a faint hum, and the three of them went out together, heading towards the back mountain.
The back mountain is a large bamboo forest and a vegetable field cultivated by nearby villagers, with green vegetables planted on it.
Zhuang Yunhang stood on the edge of the bamboo forest with his hands behind his hands, looking at this vibrant scene with a smile on his lips.
Having been studying all year round, he has a strong bookish air about him, which makes his temperament very gentle and harmless.
There was an ouch in the distance. He looked towards the source of the sound and saw an old woman lying on the ground.
Zhuang Yunhang hurried over and mixed up the old woman.
Seeing that the clothes Zhuang Yunhang was wearing were made of fine silk and satin, the old woman quickly said: "Sir, I'm dirty. Don't touch me, otherwise your clothes will be dirty!"
Such a set of clothes would probably cost several taels of silver.
Zhuang Yunhang smiled nonchalantly: "It's okay, just wash your clothes if they get dirty."
He glanced at the basket lying on the ground with his peripheral vision, and took the initiative to bend down, put the scattered vegetables, potatoes and other vegetables into the basket, and then handed the basket to the old woman.
The old woman thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you, thank you so much."
I didn't expect that the scholar in front of me was so kind-hearted.
After Zhuang Yunhang watched the old woman leave, he returned to the edge of the bamboo forest and waited.
This scene was seen by Fu Zhao and others who were hiding in the dark.
Fu Zhao said with a smile: "He seems to be gentle and gentle, without the poor and sour look of a scholar, which is really rare."
Some scholars, relying on the fact that they have read a few more books, think highly of themselves and look down on these poor people.
Not to mention actively picking up things dropped on the ground.
Chen Yayuan was also very satisfied and said to Chen Yaying: "He is your brother-in-law's cousin. He has very good character. That's why I dare to come to you."
After hearing this, Chen Yaying's face suddenly turned red and she was so embarrassed that she couldn't even raise her head.
After Shen Han's incident, she understood that good looks were of no use at all, but good conduct was the most important thing.
