Chapter 139: The Qian Family Has an Unlucky Constitution
Until she left the hall, Xu never even glanced at Wang.
Wang was still looking forward to introducing her two granddaughters to Xu, but it was not until everyone in the hall left and she, the three of them, was the only ones left in the room that she realized belatedly that the marriage was just her wishful thinking.
"Grandma, what should we do?"
Zhang Hexuan, who wanted to marry into a wealthy family, kept looking outside. Why were people's attitudes different from what her grandmother had said before?
Or... was it Qian who was behind this and said bad things about them?
Wang stood up and looked around the hall.
One day, she wants the Zhang family to have such a grandeur.
"We will definitely pay back the humiliation we have suffered now a hundredfold or a thousandfold in the future. Grandmother will definitely find a good family for you."
She has taken a fancy to the Xu Mansion!
In the backyard, Xu, who was entertaining guests, suddenly sneezed loudly.
"Madam, it's cold and windy, please put on your cloak."
The nanny took the cloak from the servant with concern and wanted to put it on Xu, but Xu frowned slightly and raised her hand to stop her.
"No need yet."
She didn't feel uncomfortable anywhere, she just felt a little weird... like someone was staring at her.
Thinking of Wang's strange methods and Qi Shouzheng's bad luck over the past decade, her heart suddenly lifted.
She saw Wang's eager look just now. She didn't really think that she would fall in love with those two little girls!
Not only have they not yet reached the age of marriage, but according to the custom in various prefectures in the capital, girls basically get married between the ages of seventeen and eighteen.
Those two girls are so young, does she have to let her son wait for them to grow up?
The more Xu thought about it, the more she felt sick. "Go and have someone keep a close eye on Wang, and the three youngsters she brought with her. They must not be allowed to have any contact with anyone in the mansion."
Wang's methods are so evil, who knows what strange things will happen if you get involved.
After Lu Xinran finished eating Wang’s big melon, he was pulled to the garden by his two younger sisters.
The Xu family is wealthy, and the Xu mansion is full of carved beams and painted buildings. Whether it is the courtyard or the garden, every step is a different scene, luxurious and elegant.
Lu Xinran was like Granny Liu who entered the Grand View Garden, her voice of shock and exclamation was so dense that it could make a person deaf.
Lu Xinling was the youngest and not good at hiding her thoughts, so she almost laughed out loud because of how funny it was.
"Second sister, do you like the Xu Mansion?"
"I like it, don't you?"
Lu Xinran replied very naturally, causing Lu Xinling to burst out laughing.
"Since Second Sister likes this place so much, and Madam Xu likes you so much, wouldn't it be perfect for you to marry here in the future?"
Lu Xinran rolled his eyes speechlessly, "As expected, he is just a child, he just likes to say stupid things."
Lu Xinling: “…”
It turned out that this was not her true feelings, and she was criticized directly!
It's winter now, and the biting cold wind blowing on my cheeks brings a stinging pain.
There were very few people in the garden. Occasionally, someone would be seen not far away, but as soon as they saw them, they would immediately hide away.
Unable to find a target to attack, the few people were very disappointed and asked the servants to lead them to the courtyard where Kong and others were resting.
The courtyard is exquisite and compact, with three main rooms and six wing rooms. There is a pine tree in the middle of the courtyard and a leaning plum tree in the corner.
The four were led into a side room where a charcoal basin was already burning brightly, and on the table were tea, fruits, and various snacks.
"Miss Lu, I am in the yard."
"it is good."
Lu Xinran smiled gently and waited for the servants from the Xu Mansion to leave. She then waved her hand to signal the maids and nannies serving them to find a place to rest. Only then did the four sisters sit down.
"Tongzi, can you tell who's in the next room?"
The system grunted for a long time before mumbling in frustration, "Not yet."
It is estimated that it can only be upgraded after five years of full health.
Lu Xinran sighed in disappointment, "You are so useless."
The system snorted, very dissatisfied.
But thinking that he could never win an argument with the host, he could only sulk in frustration.
Lu Xinling ran out with a clatter, and came back with a clatter after a while, then said something as if unintentionally.
"I just saw the wife of the Minister of War in the main room. It seems that the second wife of the Minister of War, Zou, is also inside."
"Who else?"
Lu Xinran instantly became interested. If she remembered correctly, the eldest prince Song Junhe's maternal grandfather was the Minister of War Sun Linyuan.
Qi Shouzheng, the Minister of War, might be Song Junhe's right-hand man.
Lu Xinling listened to her thoughts, said "wait a moment", and went out again.
When I came back, the information was collected very completely.
"There is also the eldest lady of the Minister of Personnel's residence and the wife of the Crown Prince of the Loyalty Marquis' residence."
How did these people get together?
While Lu Xinran was puzzled, he had already clicked on the booklet belonging to Zou.
[It's actually talking about children's marriage, boring. ]
The relationships among the various prefectures in the capital are complicated and intricate. If you sort them out carefully, you will find that there are intricate relationships between the various prefectures.
[However, Qian's eldest daughter is only twelve years old, far from the age of marriage, why is she so anxious? ]
In the main room, Zou was talking and laughing, and the sudden sound of doubt in her ears almost made her scream out.
How come no matter where I hide I can't escape from that girl from the Lu family?
Qian's heart was in a knot, and she didn't know why Zou suddenly proposed a marriage.
Although Qi Shouzheng has no children yet, the eldest daughter of the Qi family will become the mistress of the family in the future.
There is no reason to give it to the second son of the second wife.
But Zou was a strong person, and she brought in two more lobbyists. The three of them sang the same tune and did not give her any chance to speak.
She was anxious and didn't know what to do, and this voice in her heart was like the sound of nature.
Her eldest daughter...was saved.
Zou was already feeling a little restless, and her smile became a little stiff when she met Qian's suddenly relaxed gaze.
[Oh, I see. It turns out that her precious son has contracted a serious disease. The imperial physician said it in a tactful way, but it also meant that he would not survive this winter.]
[Zou was unwilling to see her precious son's condition worsen day by day as medicine and treatment were ineffective, so she decided to have a wedding for him.]
[But she looked down on girls from ordinary families. Since she married into the Sun family, she has been competing with her sister-in-law in every way. Her eldest sister-in-law's sons all married girls from the minister's house, so she set her sights on Qian.]
[She knew that Qian was childless and had a soft temper and was easy to bully, so she wanted to force her to marry her eldest daughter to her for good luck, and even found two close friends to help her force Qian to accept the marriage.]
[What kind of unlucky physique does Qian have that attracts all these disgusting and despicable people?]
[How could Zou have the nerve to force someone to accept this marriage by letting their twelve-year-old eldest daughter marry him for good fortune? ]
[Even if Qi Shouzheng has no children, and even if he is only the Minister of War instead of the Minister of War, he is not someone that a low-class person like her can control.]
[If I were Qian, I would go to the front yard to find Qi Shouzheng and let him handle this troublesome matter.]
