Chapter 102: Hard as ever
The evening breeze is pleasant.
Gong Xu was half drunk after eating.
Mother Zhu was holding a lantern in front, Wen Mingqian was holding Sang Er's hand, her clothes were flowing, like Chang'e and a young girl.
He was supported by Yunying and walked at the end.
"Master, please be patient, this gravel road is somewhat difficult to walk on." Yunying said softly.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not drunk." Gong Xu really felt that he was not drunk.
But his mood at the moment was quite ecstatic.
As if suddenly enlightened, he noticed Wen Mingqian's kindness.
Compared with the Song family, Wen Mingqian is not only more beautiful in appearance and morally upright, but also more talented.
Looking back on the years when she and Mrs. Song were together, apart from being petty and gentle towards me, she was actually scheming at every turn.
Now that Wen Mingqian is the head of the family, he not only has a beautiful concubine for himself, but also makes himself comfortable and comfortable in terms of food and clothing.
Another point is that no matter how good I thought Mrs. Song was before, my mother did not approve of it.
It was different for Wen Mingqian. The old lady not only valued Wen Mingqian, but also valued Chang'an, where Wen Mingqian was born.
Although the family members of other families also have contacts with the Song family, they are only friendly on the surface, but in fact they are more or less contemptuous.
He also criticized himself a lot, feeling that he spoiled his concubine and destroyed his wife.
Now that Wen Mingqian is back, everything seems to be in order.
Gong Xu couldn't help but realize once again that he was so wrong before.
People are always like this, and they often have completely different moods with just one thought.
How much he hated Wen Mingqian before, now he thinks she is very good.
Besides, the nature of a man is to first consider what is good for him. After Gong Xu figured this out, he felt that Wen Mingqian was thousands of times better than Song.
Looking at Wen Mingqian's graceful back, his heart became hotter and hotter.
Deliberately slowed down and said: "I had a lot of dinner today, so I can't go to bed early. I remember that the waterside pavilion in Lingyue Pavilion is the best for viewing the moon. I should go there to see it. I can't live up to it. Such a beautiful moonlight."
After hearing this, Sang Er whispered to Wen Mingqian: "This idiot wants to take advantage of my mother! It's really disgusting!"
Wen Mingqian then said to Yunying: "Then you can accompany me to enjoy the moon! Watch carefully when it gets dark and call two more people to serve."
Gong Xu actually wanted to enjoy the moon with Wen Mingqian, but he was a man with a good face after all, and he couldn't lose face for a while.
I could only say vaguely: "Don't have too many people, so as not to ruin the elegance."
"That has to be settled by the master. Bumping into each other is not a joke. "Wen Mingqian doesn't want to cause any more trouble for no reason.
But these words sounded very convincing to Gong Xu, who only felt that Wen Mingqian was caring about him.
After Wen Mingqian returned, he closed the door, washed and rested.
He told San Er: "Keep the door, don't let the palace prince come in." "Don't worry, Mom! If he dares to come in, I will break his dog's legs." San Er bared his teeth, like a puppy protecting his master. .
At this time, Gong Rang and his wife were still in the old lady’s room.
"Speaking of which, I am also an old fool!" Mrs. Gong sighed, "When the old man was dying, he repeatedly told me that it would be enough to leave the affairs of the second wife to the second daughter-in-law.
< br>It’s just that I didn’t believe it at the time. I always felt that she was young and had an upright temperament, and I was afraid that she would not be a good family
What happened later, if I could have made the decision for her at that time, it wouldn't have ended up like this. ”
Although Mrs. Gong is old, she is not confused.
She can see that Gong Xu obviously has feelings for Wen Mingqian, but Wen Mingqian is gentle and distant.
“The old lady can’t worry about this matter. After all, they are husband and wife. If today is not good, tomorrow will be good. As long as the second master shows his sincerity, why can't he coax his younger siblings to come back? "Wechsler persuaded in a soft voice.
"Alas, now I have to let it go! I hope there won't be any more setbacks. Now, I just want this family to be safe and smooth, so that I can have the honor to see the old man after I die. "Mrs. Gong sighed.
"Mom is worrying too much. My siblings have always been sensible. How can they make the family uneasy?" Gong Rang also said.
“Oh, I don’t know what fate they had in their previous life, but there will be so many twists and turns in this life. Forget it, let’s not think about it. I think about it, if Jing’an passed the exam, It’s time to kiss him. He is just twenty this year and will be twenty-one during the Chinese New Year.
You should help him look for someone in advance. You can’t just catch someone at random.”
Wechsler laughed after hearing this: "The old lady said that, there must be someone she likes."
"I think the fourth lady of Changrong Hou Mansion is pretty good. Last time I followed her When he came with his mother and sister-in-law, I felt that the girl was dignified, polite and good-looking," Mrs. Gong said.
"Um..." Wei Shi glanced at her husband with some embarrassment, "I'm afraid they may look down on us."
"How could that be? Although they are a marquis's mansion and we are an uncle's mansion, but Our family, Jing'an, is a talented person, filial and kind-hearted. Among the children of aristocratic families of similar age, there are probably not a few who are more outstanding than him."
"The old lady thinks that her grandson is naturally outstanding. That's great." Gong Rang smiled, "But people say that the fourth lady of the Changrong Hou Mansion is the only legitimate daughter in his family."
< br>"Of course they have to choose. There are hundreds of girls in the family asking for help. Can't our family go and ask for help?" Mrs. Gong said, "The second daughter-in-law is very close to their family. I looked at the words between her words. Their family seems to be trying to curry favor with her, but I don’t know why,” Mrs. Gong said.
"That's because my younger siblings are good at making powder and facial medicine, and the fourth lady's face was cured by my younger siblings. Therefore, Mrs. Changronghou was very grateful, and naturally she had more contacts." Wei Shi explained.
"So that's it. Wouldn't that be better? She can talk to her, and it's close to the water." Mrs. Gong was obsessed with finding a suitable marriage for her eldest grandson. "I will tell her tomorrow and let her Let’s check it out first.”
“The old lady is too anxious. We don’t have a single character in our family. We have to have a good reputation before we can get married,” Weishi said, “Otherwise. Doesn’t it seem frivolous?”
“What’s wrong with Tan Tankou Feng?” Mrs. Gong disagreed, “It’s just a small mention when chatting about family matters.”
As for Gong Xu, after admiring Leng Yue for a long time, he found it boring.
"My master is not well yet, so why not go back and rest." Yunying said from the side.
Gong Xu looked up at Wen Mingqian's room and found that the lights had been turned off.
I had no choice but to say: "Then go back! There is still moonlight shining on the road."
I thought to myself that she must have thought that I needed to rest now, so she went to sleep first. .
