Because of embarrassment, Li Mingran blushed so much that when he saw his mother nod, he couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and he felt dizzy.
When he walked out, he almost stumbled. It was the first time that Zheng Shi saw him like this, and he regretted it for a while, and agreed to him.
Zhong Limei is like this, and don't know if it will ruin his son's virtue in the future. It's not a good thing for a man to indulge in beauty.
Thinking of Zhong Li's advance and retreat and strict rules, her heart that was hanging high, relaxed a little. Speaking of it carefully, aside from her looks, there are not many outstanding girls like Zhong Li. Her status is not high, and her low status is not an advantage. Her son is soft-natured.
In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was just white with fish belly, Mrs. Zheng wrote a letter of worship, and when it was dawn, she sent the maid to the Marquis of Zhenbei.
Because of what they saw, the second wife had always been ashamed of Zheng Feiling and Zheng's. After learning that Zheng's handed the greeting, she couldn't help but let the maid return the news. Don't say she was okay, it was something. It will probably be pushed too.
Zheng Shi deliberately changed into a decent dress. She was not beautiful when she was young, but her temperament was very outstanding. At this moment, she was very elegant and luxurious.
After finishing everything, she took the maid to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and the second wife specially sent out her confidant.
Mrs. Zheng, who was greeted by Mrs. Li herself at the gate, saw a flower on her slightly wrinkled face as soon as she saw Mrs. Zheng, "The second wife is waiting early in the morning, madam, come in with the old slave."
Zheng Shi had been to Zhenbei Hou's Mansion before, and she followed Mama Li into the second wife's yard with ease.
There are a lot of flowers planted in the second wife's courtyard. It was foggy at night. There was still dew on the flowers. Looking around, the flowers in the garden were very clean, as if they had been washed by spring water, especially the white petals. Appears crystal clear.
As soon as she heard the footsteps, the second wife stood up. She also changed her clothes. The upper body was a green satin stitch embroidered phoenix gown, and the lower body was a white moonflower skirt, which was elegant and decent. She smiled and said: "Today Why are you free to come?"
Zheng Shi didn't hide it from her, and said with a smile, "It's not for my unsatisfactory son."
Chapter 33 Secret (two chapters in one)
Mrs. Zheng came here today because she wanted to inquire about Zhong Li first. As far as she knew, the old lady in the house was still taking care of Zhong Li. Now that Zhong Li is out of filial piety, maybe there is a suitable place for the old lady. candidate.
She never fights unprepared battles. This time, she came here to understand the situation. If the old lady doesn't like it, ask the second lady to help and talk about it. It's better than rashly proposing marriage. The face problem, the son will definitely lose his soul for a while.
After learning that there was no suitable candidate for the old lady, Mrs Zheng smiled and said, "Look at how our family is? Although he is currently studying in Guozijian, his grades have always been among the best. The imperial examination is because he feels that he needs to settle down, not me, if he is three years older, he will definitely not be much worse than Lu Yanrui, Xiao Sheng and others."
Lu Yanrui and Xiao Sheng are well-known in the capital because of their talents, and they are older than Li Mingran. In Zheng's heart, their son is naturally good everywhere.
Zheng's heart and lungs said: "To be honest, I thought that it would take two years for him and Guan to decide for him. The last time I saw Li girl, I really liked it very much. There are women in the family who ask for it, and she has already Jiji, wait a minute, there must be a lot of people who propose marriage, I simply come to you to ask."
Li Mingran is naturally very good, and the second wife has watched him grow up. He is young, promising, shy, and honest. The second wife also thought about matching him with Gu Zhiqing, but Gu Zhiqing's heart is higher than the sky, He didn't look down on the second son at all, and his eyes were full of Lu Yanrui.
Among the young sons prepared by the second wife, there was even a portrait of Li Mingran, but unfortunately Zhong Li didn't respond for a long time, and he didn't know if he didn't like it or what was going on.
The second wife first praised Li Mingran before saying: "If the two of them can get together, it will be a perfect marriage, but she has been worried about her younger brother and doesn't want to get married. The old lady also urged her, she just said to think about it. , the old lady didn't push too hard."
Thinking of Gu Cheng's situation, Zheng Shi couldn't help sighing, "She is a good child, and it's a good thing to care about love."
If it is a ruthless and indifferent, Zheng Shi will not look down on it.
The second wife smiled and said, "It's better to let them have more contact first. If the two children can talk to each other, it is estimated that there is no need for the elders to urge them more."
In fact, the second wife was very uncertain. Although Li Mingran was excellent, Xiao Sheng was not bad. Before he participated in the palace exam, the second wife even thought that he would be ranked first, but Zhong Li was stunned to ignore him.
If she really wants to marry Li Mingran and leave the Hou residence, Zhong Li may not be willing. Although the marriage contract was ordered by her parents, but now that both of her parents are no longer there, Mrs. Fang must not be able to be her master. nod.
Zheng said with a smile: "This is a good idea, then I'll just hold a flower viewing banquet. At that time, you will bring both Li and Qing girls."
The second wife nodded with a smile, "Gu Kang is also studying in Guozijian, and when the old lady's birthday banquet, I can introduce Ming Ran to him, and when the two become familiar with her, she can come to the door at any time, and Li girl often goes to accompany the old lady to relieve her boredom. He is a frequent visitor to Yangxintang.”
The two smiled knowingly and said nothing.
On the outskirts of Beijing, on Zhuangzi.
This Zhuangzi was purchased by Zhenbeihou in the early years. Zhuangzi is built on the mountain, with waterfalls and lakes. The land is very fertile, and there are large orchards planted in it. The scenery is quite pleasant.
In the early years, when Gu Lin's mother was still alive, she would come to this Zhuangzi every year to escape the summer. The reason why Zhenbeihou sent Gu Lin here is also for this reason. He found several famous doctors for him, but for three months.After the passage of time, Gu Lin's body still did not improve.
If the willow disease is discovered early, it may actually be cured, but his "disease" has not improved.
Sudden illness stimulated him a lot. His mood was always unstable and he lost his temper at every turn. In addition, he had long been accustomed to the life of every night, and not letting him touch women would make him more painful than killing him.He couldn't hold back at all, and on the tenth day he was sent to Zhuangzi, he slept with a servant girl.
