Chapter 1582 General Tiger Girl 66
The next day, the Zhenguo General's Mansion called the doctor and said that the third lady had been exposed to the cold while visiting the lantern festival last night.
When the queen in the palace found out, she quickly sent the imperial doctor there. With this coming and going, naturally there is no way to go to the lantern festival at night.
Zhao Yinghong was sick, so no one in the mansion dared to go out to play. Many ladies who got the news and planned to meet Zhao Yingyue by chance in the evening felt regretful for a while. Although Zhao Yingyue showed her face a few times, most of them were in the palace, which could only be seen by relatives of the emperor or senior officials of fourth rank or above.
When the news came out, it was inevitable that everyone would say that this third lady was very precious, and that she was fed ginseng and bird's nests every day, just like a paper beauty lantern. She was sick even when she was walking, so the palace doctors went over to prescribe prescriptions. On other days, she did not dare to neglect the food and clothing. Not ordinary people can afford to support them. Even if the ancestral graves are filled with smoke, how big a niche is needed to support them.
But at the same time, rumors spread that the third young lady was visiting the lantern festival that day and was kidnapped by gangsters, only to be rescued late at night. It's not a rheumatic disease, it's a fright disease.
The Chinese New Year has just passed and I have nothing to talk about. So the two things spread together and quickly spread throughout the streets.
For a time, there were different opinions. At the beginning, most people thought it was false, but even if no one believed it, it could not withstand such rumors. More and more people felt that it was very likely to be true.
In Zhulan Courtyard, Zhao Yingyue was so angry that her handsome face turned red: "The Duke of Rongguo has gone too far to bully people! In order to achieve their goals, they will do whatever it takes, and they still do such a thing that ruins a person's reputation."
If he didn't have restraint, he would have smashed the tea bowl like General Zhao. After hearing the news, General Zhao was so angry that he smashed the tea bowls on the ground. All four tea bowls in a set were smashed this time.
"Third brother, please be patient." Xining leaned back, his hands hidden in his sleeves, with a calm expression on his face.
Zhao Yingyue took a deep breath and calmed down the anger in her chest a little: "Dad planned to enter the palace to meet the Holy Spirit. He was almost at the door when he was stopped by the Zhou family who came to propose marriage."
"Oh?" Xining raised an eyebrow.
Zhao Yingyue said with some appreciation: "I originally thought that the Zhou family would not come, but I didn't expect that Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhou said that we were marrying sincerely. No matter what happens to the girl's family, we should do it as originally planned."
If something happens to the woman's family, especially if it is something that is brought to the forefront, the man's family should not say anything about dismissing the engagement. Some may even regret the marriage.
Don't think about the Zhou family and the support of the general's palace. You must know that Mr. Zhou married a concubine, and after marrying another concubine in the family, it was known that she did not help her husband's family much. So the Zhou family is indeed here because of integrity.
Xining couldn't help but nodded: "I really need to take a high look at the Zhou family. It's her blessing that the second sister can marry such a husband."
"It's a pity that people still don't like it." Zhao Yingyue said: "In order to reassure the second sister that Mr. Zhou is indeed a talented person, he asked the second sister to go behind the screen to see it. As a result, the second sister immediately pulled out the hairpin and messed up her hair. He rushed out and pointed at the Zhou family, jumping and scolding them. The Zhou family was stunned at that time. "
Not to mention the Zhou family, Xining was also stunned. Pretending to be crazy and acting stupid, what kind of cool move is this? Zhao Yingxue really risked her life to become a concubine.
Zhao Yingyue sighed: "My mother saw something was wrong, so she had someone drag her out. Aunt Li saw Zhao Yingxue's disheveled hair, and her mind turned quickly. She said that she was a girl from the family who came here as a guest. Originally she was a little bit hurt. It’s exciting. After raising it for a while, it looks good. I thought it was fine, but I didn’t expect it to be such a big joke.”
With her hair hanging down, she looks like a crazy woman. Even if the Zhou family recognizes her, they will refuse to admit her to death. It's normal for girls from relatives' families to look a bit alike.
"Now that we're talking about it, Aunt Xu next to her has to say it too. This girl's fiancé died in an accident, and then she engaged in another relationship. As a result, the man wanted to be with another woman, and she I broke off the engagement twice in a row. I just couldn’t figure it out. Maybe it was because I saw someone coming to ask for help today.”
Even my own mother said that it was probably not the second girl. If the Zhou family is worried, they can go outside and ask around. Miss Zhao Er is very normal.
It sounds really joyful to do such a big thing. A group of maids waiting nearby were having a hard time holding back their laughter. Zhao Yingyue felt dumbfounded when she thought about this incident: "The matter has been settled, and the wedding is scheduled for the second day of next month."
"It's settled." Xining laughed almost from ear to ear. It was so interesting and exciting. If she hadn't been a girl and couldn't show her face, otherwise she would have watched it live.
After cutting off the line between Zhao Yingxue and the third prince, Zhao Yingyue became worried about her little sister again: "Now that it has been spread like this outside, it has already damaged your reputation. How about I discuss it with my father and go to Jingzhao Mansion? Report the crime there, arrest a few people and beat them hard to see who can still talk nonsense.”
Xining took a long breath, not sure whether it was helplessness or melancholy: "This mouth grows on other people's faces, and the more they scratch it, the more powerful it is. Can you stop the mouths of everyone in the world just by scratching and beating?"
This is the great thing about Duke Rongguo. If your reputation is ruined, no one will want to marry you. When the time comes, you will have to accept the marriage proposal from Duke Rongguo. Even if you still refuse, no one else will want what they can’t get. .
"Then what should we do?" It might be okay to lead troops in battle, but Zhao Yingyue found it difficult to deal with such a matter where rumors were flying around.
Xining turned to shout: "Autumn leaves!"
Qiuye quickly put down the needlework in his hand and stood up from the stool: "Miss."
Xining asked: "I remember your neighbor's sister-in-law in the same lane. Her relatives are state media?"
Qiuye replied: "Indeed, she is the cousin of the Sun family's sister-in-law."
Xining moved his fingers out of habit, but did not touch the stove. No matter how small the hand stove is, it is still made of copper to heat water. With this warm rabbit fur armhole, you don't have to carry the hand stove all the time.
A smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Go and talk to her. There are many good things happening in our house today, and the matchmaker is more diligent than going to the market. As an official matchmaker, she is definitely much better than those matchmakers. You can come over and give it a try. By the way, bring this Tell her what happened..."
Although the New Year has passed, winter has come late, and spring is still chilly at this time. The teahouse of Jingzhong Restaurant was bustling with people. Although there was no charcoal basin, the curtain was hung, the hot water was poured, and the wine and food were served, so I didn't feel any chill.
Many people in Beijing like to get together, eat, drink and chat whenever they have free time.
"Hey, have you heard that the third lady of the Zhenguo General's Mansion was kidnapped on the night of the Lantern Festival and was only found in the middle of the night." Someone brought up this topic again.
"I've heard it a long time ago. Miss Zhao San has still not come out of the house. It seems to be true."
"Tsk~" The person at the other table snorted coldly: "When did this news come out? Let me tell you, it's not this, but a bigger secret than this!"
"Oh~, what's going on?"
Another news? The ears of everyone around stood up!
