Chapter 218 Opposite
Qing Gu's heartstrings tensely to greet Chen Luo.
Chen Luo seemed to have something to worry about and didn't pay much attention to her. He nodded to her as usual and walked in.
Qinggu lowered her head and carefully accompanied Chen Luo into the princess's inner room.
The eldest princess had taken off her makeup and was sitting in front of the mirror. The little maid gave her a haircut every day, once a day.
She looked in a good mood, with a rosy complexion and a bright look. When she saw her son, she laughed. While pointing to the Xiudun beside her, she asked him to sit down, she smiled and said, "It's so late, why are you here? Is there anything urgent to ask me?"
Chen Luo looked at his mother's still full of vitality and was silent for a while before he felt uncomfortable: "The uncle of the Wang family has come to the capital. I was wondering if we should invite him to a meal or something. Then whether to invite an intermediary..."
The eldest princess couldn't help laughing out loud.
What did she think was?
It turns out that I want to curry favor with my future uncle!
In the past, her son would not wait for her to come back without sleeping in the middle of the night.
If she was waiting for her so late, it must be because she entered the palace and something happened in the palace. I would like to get some news from her.
Thinking of this, she suddenly wanted to tease her son.
She frowned intentionally and said, "There is no such thing as this horoscope. Isn't it good to be so arrogant?"
Chen Luo didn't show his face, but he was a little anxious
He knew that since ancient times, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could not be as caring as mother-in-law. If the son showed importance to his wife and neglected her mother-in-law, it would be even more difficult for the daughter-in-law to be a human being. His mother would have to come forward with his mother-in-law. If his mother had a prejudice against Wang Xi at this time, he would have no place to cry.
Chen Luo immediately said: "Since you have decided, don't talk about so many false rites. There is always one party who should be more enthusiastic. We are just generous. If it is difficult for the people of the Wang family to get along with, I will talk about it later."
The eldest princess knows her son too well.
If you really make up your mind to act according to the other person's attitude, you will not be so attentive.
The son clearly made up his mind that no matter what the Wang family's attitude was, he would be a diligent person with a face.
She knew that her own son was really concerned about feelings. People who might make him value feelings must be willing to reach out to him first and give him first. His marriage with Miss Wang was not obvious, and his attitude was already so low, which shows that he really took Miss Wang to heart.
If Miss Wang got married, she still didn't know what his stupid son would do?
She didn't want her son to bow to his head and be the ox, and let Miss Wang ride on his head to drive him.
The eldest princess frowned again and felt a little displeased. She said, "What do you mean?"
Chen Luo felt his mother's unhappiness, but Wang Chen came too quickly. Even if he had originally planned to do so, he could not use it at this moment. He could only bite the bullet and deal with his mother.
"Let's find a middleman first?" He tried his best to make his attitude look calm and ordinary. "Anyway, I always have to ask someone to come forward to talk about this matter in the future. Then I will hold a banquet at Chunfeng Tower to entertain the eldest son of the Wang family. He is Miss Wang's elder brother, and he has some means and abilities. If such people are in good terms, there will be only benefits but no harm."
When the two families get married, it involves the women in the inner courtyard, and the matchmakers must be respectful and the wedding is decent. Therefore, before hiring a formal matchmaker, they will ask the two trusted and recognized virtuous people who will help both sides to talk about the relationship, including how much betrothal gifts? What is the dowry? When is the wedding schedule, etc.
The eldest princess heard it and felt that her son was not confused yet. She asked her mother to curry favor with the Wang family. She nodded slightly and became cheerful, saying, "It would be better to be the eldest lady of Jiangchuan Bo Mansion, but she is a widow, so she is not suitable for doing such a thing. The eldest lady of Xiangyang Hou Mansion is very suitable, with both parents, brothers and sisters, and nieces and nieces. But their eldest lady is too unpleasant. If she is involved in their family, she will probably know the marriages of both families. Besides, the seventh lady of Qingping Hou Mansion, I think it's good, but I haven't seen her as a matchmaker for anyone, I don't know if it's okay..."
The eldest princess has calculated it all over the place, but there is no one suitable one.
Chen Luo had already chosen someone in his heart, but it was hard to raise it directly, for fear that his mother would see the little thoughts in his heart. He simply asked the eldest princess to guess, until the eldest princess really couldn't find a suitable person, and then he said: "I think Mrs. Jiang Chuan Bo Tai is very good. This is a person who can talk, and it's enough to speak. It's not a person who is Quanfu!"
All fortune is to be a parent and have a couple.
For some reason, the eldest princess hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Chen Luo talked about the banquet: "When do you think it's appropriate?"
It was originally supposed to be invited to the house to show respect, but Wang Xi and Chen Luo's marriage has not been formally discussed, so it is not good to invite to the house.
The eldest princess was not ready to drag her son's hands and legs, and said, "I'll follow your arrangements."
Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief.
He had contacted Wang Chen and found that although Wang Chen was not very good-looking, he was gentle and elegant, with humorous and witty speaking, and was very nice. He was not good at looking, but he had no attack power, which made people feel gentle and became his strength in dealing with people and things. In addition, he acted considerately and looked exactly what his mother liked. His mother would definitely change the Wang family after seeing Wang Chen.
His marriage with Wang Xi was twice the result with half the effort.
This is also an important reason why he insisted on asking his mother to come forward to enter a banquet for Wang Chen after seeing Wang Chen.
"Then as I said before, I'll be in Chunfeng Tower." Chen Luo said, "I'm ready in advance, and there will be a correct sound tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
This is to let the eldest princess spare time.
The eldest princess nodded and said a few more gossips to Chen Luo. Just as her head was finished, she served tea and Qinggu still sent him out.
Cui Gu, another female official next to her, smiled and said, "It's hard to buy a thousand gold coins to make the second young master happy. You'll follow his wishes. He will definitely be more filial to you in the future."
The eldest princess smiled and said, "What do I want him to be filial? I just hope that he will not hate me in the future."
Cui Gu smiled and said, "Then you shouldn't stop me. As the saying goes, be neither stupid nor deaf, and do not be an old man. Just pretend that you didn't see it."
The eldest princess smiled and did not continue the topic, but talked about Chen Luo's marriage: "I don't know if I want to open a mansion for him again? The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion will definitely not care about him. Living in the Princess Mansion, I am afraid that people outside will be irrelevant."
Cui Gu smiled and said, "You! There was no smile in front of the second young master. As soon as the second young master left, you began to worry about his new house again. According to me, you have to ask the second young master about this. If he is willing to live with you, you can help him clean up the new house in the eldest princess's house. If he doesn't want to, buy a better one outside, and the same is true for the yard closer to your place."
The eldest princess nodded and talked to Cui Gu for a long time about Chen Luo's marriage. It was not until the time of Yin, when it was almost dawn, and then she went to bed.
Chen Luo quickly booked a banquet and posted a post to Wang Chen.
It happened that Wang Chen had finished reading the accounts in the past two days. After some leisure time, he said to Wang Xi and went to the banquet on time that day.
He was wearing a new dress that Wang Xi helped him take care of. The ordinary Taoist robe with purple purple flowers, a hairpin with silver-plastered white Hetian jade on top of his head, a black green blessing shoes embroidered with cloud patterns, and a black ribbon hanging on his waist with small seals and golden seven things. He looked rich and capable, which made the eldest princess look at it twice more.
Wang Chen has seen the world and was not scared when he came. It can be seen that when he saw the face of the eldest princess, which was the most beautiful and beautiful, he couldn't help but show a stunning look.
The eldest princess looked at it, feeling proud, and was a little satisfied with Wang Chen again.
Both of them were polite. They said a few greetings to each other, and then they sat down accordingly.
The boss came to the store for dinner, and the eldest princess was still the one who was invited to the banquet. Chunfenglou showed off his unique skills.
Although it is winter, the moonlight of the lotus pond is still on the signature lotus pond. The lotus seed rice is sweet and sweet, just like what I just picked from the lotus pond. The water chestnut rice is crispy and crispy, and the lotus root slices are white and white. Put it in the green lotus leaves, which makes people doubt the season at this time.
Wang Chen explained to the eldest princess: "In order to store these ingredients, our family dug a cellar. The lotus seed rice is iced in the cellar in summer. At this time, take it out and eat it, so the lotus root will simply be stored with mud..."
The eldest princess was very interested and accompanied by Wang Chen to look at the cellar. Wang Chen also promised that during the Chinese New Year, some lotus roots would be sent to the eldest princess for stew soup or stir-frying: "...it's much better than cucumbers."
The eldest princess laughed and looked very happy. She also asked Wang Chen: "Do you all know how to eat it? The snacks made by your sister are popular in the capital. I have not only heard of them, but also eaten them a few times. They are indeed better than those made in the imperial kitchen in the palace."
Wang Chen does not have the same temper as ordinary parents as trampling on his sister and raising others.
He said with honor: "It's because she is very good at eating. The way to eat the lotus pond is the storage method that my grandfather tried several years when she was a child."
Then he talked about what Wang Xi did for food when he was a child.
The eldest princess smiled and didn't bother her. She could think of how popular Wang Xi was at home.
This coincides with the eldest princess’ intention. Although she herself is a princess, her fate was not good when she was a child. After marrying twice, it was not a good marriage. She especially believed in the saying "good fate".
She thought Wang Xi's life was pretty good.
Not only did he grow up because he was spoiled since childhood, but he was far away in Shu, but he came to the capital when he was about to get married, and somehow he was thinking about Chen Luo.
This is an unexpected opportunity for others.
This is a good-lived girl.
