Chapter 69: Refusal


Two days later, Ma went to discuss with Rong Jiang.

"Master, I'm afraid you have to decide on Sister Zheng's marriage personally."

Rong Jiang raised his eyebrows and asked hurriedly: "In the past few days, I have vaguely heard that several families have sent matchmakers to come to propose marriage.

I have no time to intervene.

You and I should have a good talk."

Ma then handed over a name card with three families listed on it, among which the Du family was prominently listed.

Rong Jiang looked at it carefully, and then Ma introduced him: "The first family is the Zhang family in Xinzheng.

I heard that their family is engaged in business and has a lot of capital.

Now all the children in the family are studying, and the family tradition is good.

He said The second son is the second son of the Zhang family, who has just turned fourteen this year.

The second is the Luo family outside Chenqiao Gate.

Their seventh master is now the prefect of Nanjing. " Rong Jiang asked: "Which young master of the Luo family are you talking about?"

Ma smiled and said: "He is the eleventh young master.

I heard that he is seventeen this year, a little two years older, but it is suitable.

Then there is the Du family.

I am afraid that I am more familiar with the Du family than I am, so I won't say more. ” Although Rong Jiang admires Du Hong, he has no idea of ​​marrying his daughter to the Du family at the moment.

Firstly, the Du family has a poor family background, with only one widowed mother and no support.

Secondly, Du Hong has no fame yet, and he doesn't know what will happen in the future. .

He thought for a while and said, "I know."

Ma didn't talk much either.

Rong Jiang then sent someone to find out the details of the eleventh son of the Luo family.

One day later, Nagarjuna came to reply.

"Master Luo Eleven is the young master of the fourth room of the Luo family.

I heard that he grew up in Mrs.

Luo's fourth room."

Rong Jiang frowned and said, "Isn't he a direct descendant?"

Nagarjuna said truthfully: "I heard that he was born to his aunt who was carried by the maid.

My aunt left early, and Mrs.

Luo Si brought him up with her own hands."

Rong Jiang's brows knitted together, and it could be seen that he was not satisfied with the Luo family either.

The Zhang family is a businessman, and businessmen value profits over righteousness.

He didn't want his daughter to remarry as a businessman, so he rejected the Zhang family first.

What is the situation of the Luo family now?

He is even more dissatisfied.

Is he really going to marry his daughter to the Du family?

Rong Jiang went back to discuss with Ma: "You need to help me find out more about Sister Zheng's marriage.

If you find something suitable, tell me."

Ma was a little surprised and asked: "Is it possible that the master looks down on those three families?"

"I always feel that I have been wronged by Sister Zheng.

She is not too old.

We can't make a decision hastily.

Let's see again."

Ma agreed absentmindedly, and then smiled and said: "Miss San and Brother Hong have also grown up watching each other.

I thought I had taken over the Du family.

It looks like" Rong Jiang thought for a moment and then said: "The old lady of the Qi family spoke up.

She said that she would personally take care of Sister Zheng's marriage.

I had revealed a little bit to her before, but the old lady made it clear that she didn't like it."

Let alone his mother-in-law, even he is not really willing to the Du family.

Hearing this, Ma knew that the Du family was out.

In the afternoon of the next day, Mrs.

Du came into the house to chat with Mr.

Ma.

Ma sneered and said, "This matter needs to be discussed in the long run."

Mother Du showed an embarrassed look, and after a while she said: "That's true.

Our brother Hong doesn't even have a meritorious title yet, so the second master must still think about it.

We might as well wait until brother Hong becomes a scholar."

The matter was officially dropped.

Du's mother stayed at Rong's house until Du Hong came back from school and saw her son.

She was humiliated by her second wife, and angrily said to her son: "You have to work hard for me.

I don't want to live like this anymore.

I am willing to ask the second wife to propose marriage.

This is to give the Rong family heaven.

It’s such a huge honor, but I don’t know that others will look down upon me.

One day I will make the Rong family regret it.”

Du Hong didn't react for a moment.

After a long while, he said: "My mother invited someone to propose marriage.

Why hasn't my son heard about it at all?"

"I told people to hide it from you, because I was afraid that you would be distracted.

It's okay now, you can completely stop this idea and concentrate on reading your book."

Du Hong stayed there.

To him, the third young lady of the Rong family was just the moon in the water, reflected in the mirror.

He had never thought of marrying her.

The affection between the two of them had already sprouted in his heart and could not be easily erased.

He thought that the marriage between the two was destined by heaven, but Rongzheng's sudden alienation and now the Rong family's rejection was like a bucket of cold water being poured down on his head, which made him feel heartbroken.

"Mom, if I become a junior student in the future, I will move out of the Rong family academy."

Du's mother was startled and said hurriedly: "It's not that far yet.

Besides, you are also the nephew of the third family.

How could someone chase you away?

The gentleman invited by the Rong family is a famous Confucian scholar, and there may not be such a person in the county school."

Such a nice gentleman.

Besides, Mr.

Fu has a lot of advice for you, so don’t act on your own initiative.”

Du Hong pressed his hand tightly on the corner of the table, and his fingernails turned white.

After a long time, he slowly said: "Don't worry, mother, my son will be successful in the future and will definitely earn a living for his mother."

When Mrs.

Du said she had a son, the sadness in her heart immediately disappeared, and everyone said happily: "Good child, I love you for no reason, I know that you are filial.

Now you can study with peace of mind, and your mother will be happy in the future."

I will marry you a wife who is gentle, virtuous, and beautiful.

She will be better protected than Rong Zheng.

They are not the only girls in the world who look down on our family.

I still look down on Miss Rong San.

Just right" From then on, Du Hong focused entirely on his career.

Occasionally, I met Rong Zheng in the study room of the second room.

He also maintained the proper etiquette and never overstepped.

The day of May 12th will soon come.

Rong Zheng changed into a magenta Yun brocade jacket and pomegranate red skirt made by Mrs.

Lu.

The red coral beads were lying quietly in her makeup box.

After thinking about it again and again, she picked up the bead and asked Ruyi to tie it into a hairpin for her.

Ruyi helped Rongzheng tidy up and praised with a smile: "Our young lady looks really good today."

Rong Zheng said with a smile: "My wife has said that we can't embarrass the Rong family.

It's the first time the princess has invited me, so I have to take it seriously."

She looked at the bright and colorful girl in the target mirror and was satisfied.

's smile.

Dressed neatly, she took Ruyi to bid farewell to Ma.

Seeing her attire, Mrs.

Ma's eyes fell on the rose bead on her head, nodded and said, "I know, please be safe when doing things."

Rong Zheng responded numbly.

There was already a Zhu Luncui covered car waiting for her outside the door.

Rongzheng took Ruyi and Meifen and boarded the car.

This is Rong Zheng's first visit to Qixia Villa.

When she got out of the car, she was immediately greeted by two maids wearing onion-colored armor.

"It's Miss Eisan, please come over here quickly."

The maids led Rongzheng straight to the pomegranate garden.

The Liuyuan is a quiet courtyard, connected with the dock behind.

This is the pomegranate season, and there are more than a dozen pomegranate trees planted in the garden, blooming like fire.

An open house was built in the northeast corner of the garden.

Under a large pomegranate tree, wicker tables and chairs were set up.

Mrs.

Lu and others have been here a long time ago.

Rongzheng smiled and stepped forward to salute Princess Duanhui.

Princess Duanhui nodded with a smile and said, "Miss Rongsan is here."

Because she was the one named by her younger brother for the banquet.

She couldn't help but look at Rong Zheng a few more times.

Rong Zheng then went to greet Mrs.

Lu.

The cousins ​​who came with them include sisters Yunxia and Yunhong.

Neither Yunxian nor Yunhuan came.

Yunxia was very happy to see Rongzheng.

She held her hand and said, "If you don't come to our house, it's hard for me to see you."

Rong Zheng said truthfully: "There are some things at home that I can't get away from.

Besides, I still want to learn piano from Master Zheng."

When Yunxia heard about it, she mumbled and said, "Then let me go and play with you, okay?"

Mrs.

Lu heard it from the side and scolded softly: "You are so old, but you still only know how to play.

Let the princess see the joke."

Duan Hui smiled and said kindly: "When I was their age, I didn't just have fun."

Mrs.

Lu looked at her granddaughters with love on her face, and talked to Duan Hui about what happened to the Chai family.

"The third wife of the Chai family was the best friend to me at first.

I am not from Henan, but originally from Jiangnan, and Mrs.

Chai San was also from Jiangnan.

Gradually, I became closer to Mrs.

Chai.

At that time, the princess was still there I hugged her when she was a baby and praised her to Mrs.

Chai San for how lucky she was to be able to sleep even when it was time to sleep.

Then she became a princess.

She was really lucky. " Duan Huipai said with a smile: "It is said that longevity and good fortune cannot be both.

Mother and concubine have the blessings, but it is a pity that longevity is not so good."

Talk about what happened back then.

It's inevitable to feel a little sad.

Rong Zheng thought that the princess's banquet today was a good day and that she could not bring back too many sad memories of the princess, so she secretly tugged at the corner of Mrs.

Lu's clothes.

Mrs.

Lu turned around and smiled at Rong Zheng.

She understood her granddaughter's thoughts, so she stopped the topic and did not continue talking.

Duan Hui talked about the pomegranates in front of him and said with a smile: "My father had people plant these trees at the beginning.

In addition to eating the fruits one year, I can also give them to others.

We have people who know how to manage the trees in the villa."

The pomegranates are pretty neat.

I’ll pick a few for the old lady to try during the Mid-Autumn Festival.”

Mrs.

Lu crouched down and said, "Oh, this is a blessing for me as an old woman.

Pomegranates with many seeds are a good omen, and the princess is sure to have a lot of blessings."

Duan Hui smiled.

She invited all the female family members to come and enjoy the show, and she didn't prepare any other performances.

All the drama, silk and bamboo were omitted.

She cast her eyes on Rong Zheng and said with a smile: "Our villa is not small, so why not invite the ladies to walk around?

I don't have to stay with you all the time, but I will detain you."

Yunxia is lively and active by nature, and she couldn't sit still for a long time.

After hearing this, she couldn't help but feel itchy, so she hurriedly got up and pulled Rongzheng to leave.

Mrs.

Lu glanced at Yunxia, ​​her eyes a little threatening.

Yunxia hurriedly lowered her head.

This little daughter's mood completely caught Duan Hui's eyes.

She nodded with a smile and said, "Old madam, let the sisters play freely.

There are no other people in the villa, so don't worry."

Mrs.

Lu then confessed: "Don't cause trouble."

Yunxia agreed quietly.

Duan Hui asked the maid in front of him to accompany the three young ladies on a casual tour of the villa.

Yunhong raised his head and looked at the pomegranates on the branches and thought they were really beautiful.

Yunxia pulled Rongzheng and chattered non-stop.

"The second sister is very busy now.

She follows the second uncle and the sister-in-law every day and tells her to learn how to manage the family.

I said that today the princess will post a message, so I will go out and take a rest for a day.

It happens that she talks a lot.

She won't be able to live for a long time.

I’m going to get married in a few months, and now I’ve lost another sister to laugh with.”

"Second sister, she can't joke with us.

It's not like the two of us who are used to being crazy and no one dares to care."

Yunxia still felt that Rongzheng liked her more, and they always had endless things to talk about when they were together.

However, the last time Rongzheng stayed at home for half a month, Yunxia vaguely felt that Rongzheng had changed and was not as active as before.

"I said what's going on with you, and also said you would go crazy with me.

When I was grounded by my grandmother, you didn't come to see me very often.

You didn't miss me when you returned to your Rong family," Yunxia started to read.

Rong Zheng said hurriedly: "No, no, how could I miss you?

Seriously, I will leave a message for you when I get back.

It would be nice if you come to my house for a while."

Yunxia then beamed.

The two of them only focused on talking, but left Yunhong in the cold.

Yunhong pouted unhappily and said, "Both sisters ignored me."

Yunxia smiled and pinched Yunhong's cheek and said, "Who dares to ignore you."

The group of people walked and talked all the way, and unknowingly came out of the durian garden.

Under the guidance of the maid, we visited several other gardens.

Rong Zheng felt that the layout of Qixia Villa was much more unique than the garden in the palace.

Perhaps it is because this place is not affected by regulations, and we originally hired a garden architect from Jiangnan to design the design, so there is a delicate and graceful atmosphere everywhere.

"Is this your princess's villa?"

The maid in front of her in a brown-colored armor hurriedly replied: "Now the princess basically lives here, it can be regarded as a separate courtyard.

However, it was originally our princess's dowry, and the prince bought nearby land for expansion."

Rong Zheng nodded and praised: "To be able to build a garden like this, the person who designed it must be a person with a deep heart."

Yunxia chuckled, feeling that this was not Rongzheng's tone at all, and hurriedly asked with a smile: "Why do you see that?"

"Every step brings a view.

Every place has its own attraction.

No matter how much living water there is, it will be a good attraction.

Without the living water, no matter how beautiful the garden is, it will be just a pool of stagnant water."

Yunxia doesn't understand these things, but she knows how to appreciate beauty, and she also thinks Qixia Villa is beautiful.

She will never get tired of living here for the rest of her life.

A few people walked slowly, and soon they arrived at Tangli's study.

Rongzheng saw the branches of the pear tree sticking out from the courtyard wall, pointed at it and asked, "Where is this place?"

The maid who spoke just now said hurriedly: "This is Tangli Study, where our uncle lives now."

"Oh" Mu Xuan's appearance naturally appeared in Rong Zheng's mind.

She thought he lived in the quiet little courtyard behind Puci Temple, but she didn't expect that there was a place for him to stay here.

Then he thought about it again.

The princess was his biological sister, so she would naturally give her brother a place to rest.

There was nothing strange about her.

Not long after they passed Tangli's study, Fu Cui hurriedly caught up and whispered to the maid in a brown armor: "Sister Wan Su, the uncle said that he wanted to talk to Miss Rong San.

Please go sit in the study with Miss Rong San." sit."

Wan Su was slightly startled and quickly conveyed the message to Rong Zheng.

Rongzheng was surprised and said quickly: "Please ask this sister to lead the way
