Chapter 937 Extra Story: The Good Show Begins
It's time to pick up the bride, and the mansion is full of gongs and drums. Because the two families are not far away, it doesn't take long to pick up the bride. After about an hour, the team will return.
It was very lively outside, and what made Liang Zhiyuan happy was that the people from Hou Fu finally came.
As Su Qing said, this time it was Jinghou himself who came, and his wife, Su Qing's grandmother, also came in person, and brought three daughters-in-law, among them was Su Qing's mother.
Liang Zhiyuan was flattered by such a big battle.
He asked the Han family to greet the others, while he personally greeted the Jinghou family.
"Master Hou came from a long way, the journey has been hard!"
After he invited Jinghou's family to enter, he was immediately regarded as the honored guest.
Jinghou has just passed his 70th birthday this year. He has been in the military for many years. Even after being disarmed, he still insists on practicing martial arts. Therefore, he looks younger than his peers.
He raised his robe and took his seat, and said happily: "It's not hard, why is it so hard to organize a wedding? Mr. Liang, I didn't expect that after five years, our two families still have this fate. Congratulations!"
Liang Zhiyuan said frankly: "Isn't it? Ah Li is a lucky child."
"He is indeed a blessed person. He said he was dead before, but he did not expect to change his body and become the god-sister of the princess. This is also an unexpected thing. To put it bluntly, this child has such a blessing." Mrs. Hou said with a smile .
After hearing what the old lady said, Liang Zhiyuan knew that what Su Qing said was true, and A Li was really the princess' god-sister.
Thinking that he would have the Prince Regent and the Jinghou Mansion as his support in the future, he seemed to see a broad road in front of him, and his smile deepened.
Liang Zhiyuan wanted to talk more with Jinghou, but the other guests knew that Jinghou was coming, and wanted to come in to see him one after another.
Marquis Ning Yuan also brought Liang Ruoyu's husband in.
Although Jinghou and Ningyuanhou are both Marquises, they are different.
Jing Hou has made military exploits and has a high prestige, and now among the generals of the Manchu Dynasty, many of them are his former troops.
The old man's influence is still great.
The Marquis position of Marquis Ningyuan is hereditary. He has an empty name but no real power. To put it bluntly, he still eats the food of the imperial court, but this food will be cut off in the generation of Liang Ruoyu's husband-in-law.
Seeing everyone rushing in, Liang Zhiyuan wanted to confirm the marriage, so he could only sit with him with a dry smile and watch how everyone worshiped him. However, he was still very happy because everyone looked at him more He is very envious and respectful, after all, it is really a shame for his son to be invited to come from afar when he gets married.
Before, celebrities from all walks of life were quite skeptical of him. Although they said good things clearly, they were very disdainful behind their backs. Even the expression of disdain could be vaguely felt during the conversation.
Today, there is respect in the attitude.
Han Shi and Liang Ruoyu greeted the female relatives outside, their eyes glanced in from time to time, there was a suppressed excitement on their faces, the more people came today, the better.
When the female relatives are together, it is indispensable to gossip.
The news of Ah Li's return had been spread long ago, and those with a broken mouth couldn't help but ask, "Didn't your eldest lady say that she died in Qianzhou five years ago? Why did you come back?"
Han's eyes dodged, "Well, I didn't really die five years ago, but something happened. It's good to be back now... Mrs. Zhang, why did you come here?"
With that said, he deliberately left suspense and left.
Then, Liang Ruoyu was going to be dragged and questioned, and she showed an embarrassed and embarrassed expression, "It's been five years, so I can't explain it clearly. Anyway, it's good if you come back. Father is magnanimous. Everything We will let the past go, and today the Hou Mansion is here to propose marriage and renew the relationship, so don't mention the past."
These words made people think even more, everyone's eyes glowed with excitement, and they chased after Liang Ruoyu to ask.
In the end, Liang Ruoyu seemed to be harassed so much that she said, "Everyone does something wrong. Now that they're all back, nothing happened. Don't ask any more. Today is my brother's wedding. Always ask Her business is not appropriate, is it? Come on, let's have some snacks first, have tea, have tea!"
If they couldn't ask Liang Ruoyu and Han Shi, they asked the girls in the mansion.
The servant girl who was serving on the scene had been ordered by Han Shi to speak ambiguously at first, and then vaguely revealed that Ah Li had eloped five years ago.
Everyone was shocked, elope? It was mentioned before that the Marquis's marriage is going to elope with someone? In the end, they were robbed of their property?
If the Marquis Mansion came to propose marriage today, they probably didn't know about it.
Many of the wives present were family members of the governor's officials. When they learned about these things from the servants of Liang's mansion, they were all very careful.
If you tell your master about this matter, and then tell Hou Ye privately, you will be doing great service. This Hou's mansion must not know about this matter, otherwise, how could it be possible to come all the way to propose marriage?
After finishing her work, Liang Ruoyu came over, heard the girl's last words, got angry, sent her away, and then said to the wives with a smile on her face: "You girls talk nonsense, don't take it seriously, if there is nothing wrong, don't say it outside. Okay? Give me some face."
Everyone naturally agreed, but each found an excuse to disperse.
Liang Ruoyu looked coldly at the weird expressions on these people's faces, she slowly smiled, and the fun was about to begin.
Han came to her side and said appreciatively: "Yu'er, you still have a way."
"You're in a mess. You think she's so powerful because of her bravado. No matter whether it's true or not, Su Qing won't help her." Liang Ruoyu said.
She turned her head to look at Han Shi, and said slightly reproachfully: "Mum, you are really, why are you scared by her? You are so impatient to show your feet in front of father."
Mrs. Han knew she was wrong, but she was not convinced by her daughter's words, "At that time she brought Su Qing back and said she was her husband, but who knew it was a lie? That little bitch knows how to bluff people, it's really hateful .”
"Really, if she really married Su Qing, why didn't she go back to her natal family to get married? Even if she didn't want to, the Jinghou Mansion couldn't agree to it. Everyone in these aristocratic families has the best face, and they have to follow the rules in everything. The woman's parents agreed, and strictly speaking, it was adultery without a matchmaker."
"You're right." Han admired her daughter's "sightseeing" very much, and said with relief, "Mother is so happy that you are so successful."
"Just wait, the best show is yet to come." Liang Ruoli snorted.
The mother and daughter were only talking, but they didn't see Ah Li standing in the pavilion, his face was rosy reflected in his crimson clothes, and there was a calm look between his brows.
The best show is yet to come, yes, the best show is yet to come.
After Jinghou finished speaking with everyone, Liang Zhiyuan arranged for them to rest for a while, but Jinghou was suddenly very busy. Those local officials who had just met came to visit one after another, saying that they had something important to tell.
Hou Ye even met several people and said the same thing.
