Chapter 205
Xiao Sa was exiled to Yanzhou Guards, how could he be willing to implicate himself at this time?
Chen Muqing understood after thinking about it.
"You are all for my own good!"
Chen Zhen nodded: "Even so, if he is stuck, I will not marry his daughter to him."
Shen Muqing's head is slightly slight.
"Don't nod!" Chen Zhen smiled, "You are not allowed to persuade him privately."
"I know." Chen Muqing promised, "I won't persuade him privately. Some things must be understood by him. Although he was exiled, some people returned to Kyoto, and some people took root there. What kind of life a person has depends on his choice."
Chen Zhen is very satisfied with his daughter's sensibility.
*******
Chen Muqing came out of Chen Zhen's study and turned around to Aunt Chen's place.
"This is normal for me," said Aunt Chen, "It will only get worse every year in the future. My aunt will also help me persuade the master, and I will listen to the doctor's instructions in the future."
Chen Muqing pondered for a moment and said, "Or, you will accompany the master in the garden at the right time every morning to bask in the sun. The master has been in the study every day in recent years, and he rarely walks around, which is not good for his health."
Aunt Chen was not very sure: "I'll talk to the master."
Chen Muqing's suggestion was immediately denied by Chen Zhen. She couldn't help but worry and complained to Shi Jingshu: "I specially hired someone to fix the back garden this year. This is the time when spring is in full bloom. What's wrong with taking a walk?"
Shi Jingshu asked her: "If the Xiao family really comes to propose marriage, wouldn't you go to Sichuan with Xiao Sa?"
Chen Muqing felt a headache when he thought of this problem: "It has been four or five days since this has passed, and the Xiao family has not had any movement. I no longer expect him to understand it. And at this time, I cannot follow him to Yanzhou Guard without any distraction. Speaking of which, we still have no fate."
Shi Jingshu covered her mouth and smiled: "You are not destined yet? Then tell me, who is destined?"
Chen Muqing thought about it and laughed: "It's a bad fate!"
Shi Jingshu pretended to be thoughtful for a long time and nodded seriously: "It's really a bad fate. Look at you, how much has happened to him?"
Chen Muqing couldn't help but lower his head and sighed.
"Okay, okay." Shi Jingshu smiled, "Don't worry about Uncle Shen either. If you believe me, I would have an idea!"
"What's the idea?" Chen Muqing said in a daze.
"You and I will accompany Uncle Shen for a walk every day!" Shi Jingshu smiled, "If you want to let Aunt Chen accompany Uncle Shen, it is not easy to say a few words between the two - I lived in the mansion for a while and found that Uncle Shen didn't talk much to Aunt Chen at all. If you and I accompanied him for a walk, talking and laughing, it would be more interesting!"
Chen Muqing's heart moved as he heard this.
Since Li's death, Chen Zhen has had much less talk with Aunt Chen than before.
She thought Shi Jingshu's method was feasible. The next day, as soon as the sun shone on the tree, she pulled Chen Zhen to the back garden to see the willows.
It is the beautiful sky in April, and green trees and willows are everywhere. Several forsythia plants planted in the garden have also bloomed. Chen Zhen looked at it and asked the servant to move the painting table to draw.
Shi Jingshu winked at Chen Muqing.
Chen Muqing was also happy to see.
Slowly, Chen Zhen started walking with Shen Muqing and Shi Jingshu in the morning and evening, and occasionally they also talked about the old sayings they heard.
Chen Muqing accompanied his father with laughter every day, but when Tingyuxuan arrived, he pulled his face down.
It was already April 18th, but the Xiao family was not moving at all.
Did you really see someone wrong?
Chen Muqing couldn't help but mutter in his heart, often recalling the fearless boy in red who he saw outside the Medicine King Temple.
She felt very conflicted, hoping that the Xiao family would come to propose marriage, but not that the Xiao family would come to propose marriage.
When he comes, at least it means that Xiao Sa still has himself in his heart; if he doesn't come, he can stay at home and accompany Chen Zhen.
In this contradiction, Shi Jingshu also became anxious.
"What does this Xiao Sa mean?" She couldn't help but feel angry, "Uncle Shen took the initiative to allow the marriage, but he still couldn't figure it out. Don't think about stepping into the Shen family again in the future."
If it were me, I was afraid I wouldn't dare to make a decision, right?
After agreeing to this marriage, I will be responsible for my partner in the future... This is sweetness and a heavy burden.
Chen Muqing understood it.
Just like before, she had many opportunities to get married, but she always felt that something was wrong, so she finally chose to be single.
"It's good!" She felt regretful and was a little insincere, "We are not worthy of each other."
*******
After two more days, just when Shen Muqing had completely given up, Wang Qing suddenly visited.
He shouted when he entered the door, "Master Shen, I'll be an ice man and ask for a glass of wine." As he said that, he handed it to Chen Zhen with a big red Geng sticker.
Some of the little maids serving on the side ran to Tingyuxuan, and some went to Liuyiyuan.
Since the New Year, people from the Xia family said that the young master should go to the Imperial College to study and get a fame before he passed the exam. Aunt Chen felt that this was not appropriate. Now that he heard that Wang Qing came to propose marriage to Xiao Sa, he went to Chen Zhen's study in a hurry.
"...Xiao Sa means getting engaged first." Wang Qing smiled, "You are not in good health. He is going to Yanzhou Guard again soon. It's better to let my aunt accompany you at home. If we can meet a general amnesty, we will help us to do some efforts, but we will not go to the official career. Returning to Lincheng with the foundation of the Xiao family, we can live a life."
Chen Zhen did not express his opinion on this matter, but just smiled: "Let us ask Mr. Min to be a matchmaker..."
Aunt Chen was very anxious when she heard this.
The master's health is getting worse day by day, and Dashe is still young. If Chen Muqing married the exiled Xiao Sa, then the master will have another one in the future. Who will Dashe rely on? If the brothers in his mother's family rely on his father's authority to take advantage of Dashe, wouldn't they go to drink the northwest wind?
Thinking of this, she immediately turned around, walked out of the study door lightly, and went to Tingyuxuan.
Knowing that Xiao Sa came to propose marriage, Muqing was as if she was falling into a dream.
Shi Jingshu couldn't believe it and asked the little maid repeatedly: "Did you hear it clearly?"
The little maid nodded repeatedly: "If Miss Shi doesn't believe it, you can let Sister Yingfen go and have a look."
Shi Jingshu asked Zijing to reward the little maid with a few pieces of silver, and looked at Chen Muqing and smiled.
Chen Muqing blushed and frowned again in a flash: "What should I do if the master? Is there a Yiwen tea shop? Otherwise, let me tell Xiao Sa and get engaged first, and then I will talk about it when the master is in good health in the future."
Shi Jingshu smiled and said, "Don't worry. Didn't the doctor who treated Uncle Shen once said that Uncle Shen is why he is older. In the future, his health will only get worse day by day. Can you never marry?"
"At least closer." Chen Muqing was embarrassed, "The master is uncomfortable, and I can come back to take care of him immediately."
As the two were talking, Aunt Chen ran in.
She held Chen Muqing's hand and cried: "My aunt is someone who doesn't know what's wrong with her. She actually protects you and the man named Xiao Sa. He didn't think about it. Xiao Sa was exiled. Wouldn't this push my aunt into the fire pit! Auntie, you can't agree to this marriage anyway!"
Chen Muqing couldn't believe that Xiao Sa really made people come to propose marriage and fell into trouble.
It seems that this matter can't be true anymore!
Seeing that she didn't say anything, a cloud of clouds flew out on her face. She thought she was shy and embarrassed to tell her about this.
She couldn't help but squeeze Chen Muqing's hand tightly: "My aunt, this is not a time to talk about the red tape, it is related to your future life... Hurry up, let someone bring a letter to Jinxiu and ask her to tell Mr. Min that this matchmaker cannot be the one - the master wants to invite Mr. Min to be the ice man!"
Shi Jingshu turned her back and laughed secretly.
Chen Muqing was so painful that she squeezed her. She threw away Aunt Chen's hand and went to Xijima: "Come with me!"
Aunt Chen was stunned and hurriedly followed Chen Muqing to the western diary.
"Marriage matters, the matchmaker's words. Of course, I have to listen to the master." Chen Muqing smiled, "What are you worried about in your aunt?"
Aunt Chen murmured: "My first marry Youda, and you get married again... Why can't my aunt talk to the master... I'm still counting on my aunt to be the leader of my family?"
Chen Muqing suddenly understood.
She thought for a while and said with a smile: "You should have heard of the Xiao family in Lincheng?"
Aunt Chen nodded and said, "Being an official is serious - looking at the civil and military officials in the court, how many people did not go from poor scholars to buying land and buying land... and the saying of Ling Yinzhi, who destroyed the family... families like them are all wealth... How can they withstand the trouble..."
Chen Muqing couldn't help but smile bitterly.
What Aunt Chen said really makes some sense!
"But that's why we're willing to help us." Chen Muqing had to use Liang Jimin as an analogy. "I remember when the master was imprisoned, the Liang family was afraid of his hands... Sometimes, those are just icing on the cake and can't help in time!"
Aunt Chen murmured, wanting to say something, a little maid outside said, "Auntie, Master, please come over."
Chen Muqing patted Aunt Chen's hand: "There is not a single word yet? Don't worry too much. No matter what, Dashe is always my brother, and I will not leave him alone."
Aunt Chen didn't dare to delay her time, so she nodded helplessly and sent Chen Muqing out of Tingyuxuan.
When he arrived at Chen Zhen's study, Wang Qing had already left.
Chen Zhen pointed to the big red post on the painting table: "Look!"
Chen Muqing wanted to see it very much, but in front of her father, she was still a little embarrassed. She lowered her head and smiled slightly: "The master decided to...what do you want me to see?"
Chen Zhen was stunned by Chen Muqing's words, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face.
Which parent would show Geng's post to his children... Only him... Li is gone, and he has not followed the rules that should be followed...
Thinking of this, his voice became a little lowered: "Let's go to the temple tomorrow... I have to tell my wife about this."
Chen Muqing nodded.
"Xiao Sa means getting engaged first." Chen Zhen said seriously, "What do you mean?"
Chen Muqing was quite surprised.
She was originally planning to find an opportunity to meet Xiao Sa in private... She decided to settle the marriage first, and served Chen Zhen at home for a few years. When the grand house became bigger, there was also a person in charge at home, and she got married again, but she didn't expect...
Can you be considerate of each other in this way and always think about each other, even if there are any major conflicts, can you resolve them?
Chen Muqing thought that he had a little confidence in his future.
