Chapter 397: Promise
Chapter 397 ·Agree
Everyone talked about their son for a while, and Mrs. Chen asked Madam Bu to take the two ladies from the Chen family to Mrs. Chen's place, "Go quickly, write today's big words early and come back early, don't delay lunch."
Mrs. Chen has very high requirements for the two ladies of the Chen family. They have to write fifty big words every morning, and they cannot miss each other regardless of the cold or heat, and they cannot even eat without finishing writing. Although Mrs. Chen felt sorry for her two granddaughters, she also knew that Mrs. Chen was doing this for the benefit of the two children, so she could only comfort them behind their backs, but never stopped them.
Chen Mu whispered, "Grandma, if we haven't come back by lunch, you should send Madam Bu to save us!"
Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "Silly girl, although your mother has stricter requirements for you, it is not unreasonable. As long as you finish writing on time, she will naturally let you back for dinner."
Chen Mu said aggrievedly, "Aren't the granddaughter afraid that she can't finish writing?"
Chen Man said, "As long as you put away those unnecessary thoughts, you will definitely finish it."
Chen Mu still didn't want to leave, staring at Mrs. Chen with her watery eyes, her eyes full of prayers.
No matter who is stared at such a pair of eyes, there is no way to be soft-hearted. Mrs. Chen had to say, "I understand, I understand! Don't worry, I'll let Houzhao make clear soup fish balls for you during lunch. You will be back to eat after you finish writing."
Chen Mu cheered and followed Madam Bu out of the house.
After walking far away, I could still hear her whispering to Madam Bu. Madam Bu said helplessly, "Miss Mu, don't worry, even if the old lady forgot, I will go to "fake the imperial edict" to save you back when it's time for dinner."
Chen Mu seemed even happier, as happy as a little duck.
Mrs. Chen was full of love and insisted on pretending to be helpless, "I always can't grow up, what do you think? In two years, I will reach the age of getting engaged. How can I feel at ease?"
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so don't worry." Madam Li smiled and said, "This child has grown up all day. In your eyes, he looks like a child who has never grown up. But when you encounter something outside, everyone has their own ideas, so you can rest assured."
Mrs. Chen nodded, "That's right." She ordered a young maid, who was not very old, to come in and pour tea for Madam Li again, and then asked her intention, "You don't have to go around in circles with me, just say it directly. Your old lady is a master who is easily unwilling to bother others. Since it is important to send you over, it must be important. If I can do it, there will be nothing to say. If I can't do it, there will be a son and a wife below, and if they can't do it... Then there is no way. The Chen family only has so much ability, so let her find another way quickly."
Madam Li used to like Mrs. Chen's pragmatic attitude, and she said everything on the surface without anyone asking for guessing.
Besides, before coming, Mrs. Tang had already expected that her family would have such a question, so she specifically reminded Mama Li to say something and not hide it from Mrs. Chen, so as not to make her unhappy.
Madam Li told Mrs. Chen when the Tang family and the Li family were about to get engaged, "Because they are the eldest son and grandson, the family attaches great importance to it. I know that your family is happy, so I want to enjoy the blessings. I ask your daughter-in-law to come forward and be a matchmaker!"
"That's how..." Old Mrs. Chen hesitated.
Madam Li's heart sank as she looked at her.
She thought that with Mrs. Chen's personality, she would immediately make a decision when she heard the sound. She didn't expect that she would be so embarrassed... Then can't this matter be done?
Mrs. Chen said slowly, "If it's a matter of the other side, I'll make the decision. This matter is a little different. I have to ask my daughter-in-law what she means. You also know that she has never been willing to be a matchmaker for it, and she doesn't know how many people she has offended, and how ugly it is to say about her. I don't know how many times she has persuaded her with great sincerity, but she promised it well every time, and she still does whatever she wants to turn around. I don't know what to say about her. But her legs are on her body, and if she doesn't want to, I
You can't force her to press her head. Besides, the marriage is a big deal that makes two families apart. If this matchmaker is full of resentment, can the couple live a good life after marriage? Go back and tell your old lady that I will ask my daughter-in-law to say that if she agrees, I will ask Madam Bu to send you a letter and invite her to visit her home. If it fails... I will not say anything, so as not to let outsiders know. I think my mother-in-law suppresses her daughter-in-law and force her to do something she doesn't want to do, and then she will not look good in her face."
Seeing that she said everything to this, Madam Li could only smile and nodded, "Yes, I'll go back and bring your words to our old lady."
Old Mrs. Chen agreed and asked her to send Madam Li out after Madam Bu came back.
After Madam Li returned to the Tang family, she hurried to meet Mrs. Tang and repeated the original words of Mrs. Chen.
After hearing this, Mrs. Tang smiled, "I understand. Go and tell Feng Jun and ask her to prepare the gift for me in advance. We will visit the Chen family in a few days."
Madam Li was stunned when she heard this, "Old lady..."
Mrs. Tang said, "You must be right to listen to me. Since my old sister said so, she should be almost inseparable."
Although Madam Li was puzzled, she believed in Mrs. Tang's words very much and hurriedly informed Huang.
When Huang heard that his mother-in-law was going to visit Chen's house in a few days, she knew that it must be to invite Mrs. Chen to come forward as a matchmaker. Although she was worried that Mrs. Chen would not agree, she happily prepared the gift to pass the door.
Within two days, Madam Bu from the Chen family came to see Mrs. Tang in person and said that the chrysanthemums in the house were blooming just in time. Mrs. Chen invited Mrs. Tang to visit the mansion to enjoy the flowers.
When Madam Li heard this, she knew that the matter was done. She personally sent Madam Bu out and didn't say that she was even more convinced of Madam Tang.
Mrs. Tang called Bai Rongxuan and asked her to accompany her to the Chen family as a guest. Huang listened on the side and said quickly, "Rongxuan is still young after all, why don't I just accompany you..."
It is a big deal to ask a matchmaker. How could her, the man's mother, not come forward?
Mrs. Tang knew that she was concerned, and said with a smile, "No, there is still a lot of things at home that you have to work on. Rongxuan will just accompany me. When the matter is settled, it is not too late for you to go over to see Mrs. Chen." After pondering for a moment, she made a decision and said, "It's rare that the weather is good, Xueru has been in the house for a long time. Let her go out with us."
Bai Rongxuan was in a good mood after hearing this and volunteered to inform Tang Xueru.
Mrs. Tang said, "Go and tell her by the way. If she causes trouble for me this time, she will not want to go out at this time next year."
"No! She has learned from her mistakes and has learned a lesson long ago!" Bai Rongxuan promised Tang Xueru and ran to Tang Xueru quickly.
Hearing that he finally stopped hiding, Tang Xueru woke up in his dream and took a long time to jump and laugh, "That's great, I can finally go out! Amitabha, the Bodhisattva bless you, it's not in vain that I prayed to you diligently these days! Where are we going, and where is the Chen family?"
Bai Rongxuan told her what she knew.
Tang Xueru said, "It turns out that she wanted to ask Mrs. Chen to be a matchmaker for my brother. I have been locked up for a few days now. My brother is going to marry a wife and husband! If I stay in the house for a few more days, maybe the world outside the door has changed a lot, and you will be married by then!"
