But She’s So Charming
Chapter 89: dowry
After Grandpa Sun read the decree, the Cheng family slowly rose up and down.
Wang Ying's gaze fell on Tang Wu alone from beginning to end.
She wore a lotus-colored orchid embroidered skirt, with a gold-inlaid jade butterfly swaying on her head, which looked elegant and elegant without losing dignity.
But... the color of the lips is a bit white.
At this time, Mrs. Cheng said to Tang Wu: "My grandmother is sick today?"
Tang Wu lowered his head and coughed slightly, and said slowly: "Back to grandmother, my grandson sat in the yard for a long time last night, it seemed that he was a little bit cold."
Upon hearing this, the old lady hurriedly said, "It is very easy to be repeated in this winter because of the wind and cold. I will call the doctor to show you soon, but don't get serious."
After finishing speaking, the old lady turned her head to the side of the maid and said, "You go and cook a bowl of **** soup for the big girl to dispel cold."
Although Dafang and the old lady knew about the matter between Tang Wu and Ying Wang, today the Cheng family’s three rooms were all there, and the rules could not be broken. So after a while, the old lady Cheng gave Tang Wu the reason for his illness. Let her return to Yun Xige.
Naturally, it’s not easy for a girl to stand here and listen to this matter.
As soon as Tang Wu returned to Yunxi Pavilion, she wiped off the powder covering her lips with a kerchief.
The weather outside was dry and cold. Tang Wu thought that there was nothing to do today, so she took off her clothes again, and went back to the bed. The bed in winter is always very noisy, and her eyelids haven't struggled much. Next, I wandered into a dreamland.
I don't know how long it has passed. When Tang Wu opened his eyes again, I saw Wang Ying sitting on the bedside watching her.
With her eyes facing each other, Tang Wu was irritated. She sat up half-heartedly, "You, how did you get in?" You know, the night is not the same day, so he turned in when no one was around. Forget it, the sun is still hanging outside today, how can he dare to come in brightly!
He looked down at her and said, "I said hello to my mother-in-law, thinking about your uncomfortable body, so I came to see you."
As soon as she said this, Tang Wu couldn't help muttering in her heart, heh, this mother-in-law called diligently.
King Ying raised his hand. He wanted to test the temperature of her forehead with the back of his hand, but he didn't want to be avoided by her.
"Wu'er."
It's okay that he didn't open his mouth to call her. As soon as he spoke, he saw Tang Wu and hid the whole person in the quilt. There was a posture that I didn't want to listen or watch.
"But still mad at me?"
He thought he had apologized like this, she should always give face, but he didn't expect that the person in this quilt not only didn't respond, but kicked his legs, and the meaning of driving away was obvious...
Facing such a scene, King Ying's hands obviously had nowhere to rest. Without him, His Highness King Ying had never done this kind of hot face and cold face.
"Wu'er, what can I do to make you lose your breath, eh?" This tone was soft, afraid that he didn't even recognize himself.
Hearing this, Tang Wu lifted the quilt open, and brought Shui Lingling's big eyes out of the quilt, "No matter what, can your Highness do it?"
His eyes were deep and sincere, "You said."
Tang Wu whispered back: "I want you to embroider me with a veil, a yellow base cloth, and a duck on it."
Wang Ying couldn't help being jealous. He really didn't expect that she would make such a request.
Embroidery, let alone him, just look for them all over the capital with lanterns. There are not a few men who can be female celebrities.
Tang Wu just woke up, with a pale and tender face, more attractive than the steamed buns. He involuntarily leaned down and took a bit of her cheek, "You will toss me."
Tang Wu continued to sullenly, reluctantly said: "Then your Highness should not?"
What else could he do, he had to say "um".
His tone was as low as ever, but Tang Wu tasted a touch of sweetness in the end.
Otherwise, if you want to get a woman, you must first attack her heart, and then you still reject the little people who are thousands of miles away, and now they are willing to rub them again.
The sky will be dark, it is inconvenient for King Ying to stay, and before the unity time arrives, he set off to return to the palace.
As soon as Tang Wu sat up, he heard Hongzhu say from the side: "Girl, madam and old lady tell the girl to go to Fushoutang."
"I mean now?"
"Yes, the lady and the old lady are waiting for you, girl."
…
When Tang Wu stepped into the Fushou Hall, Mrs. Cheng was talking to Lin Fu. Seeing her coming, the two put down the hot tea in their hands.
Tang Wu saluted and said: "Greetings to grandmother and mother."
The old lady smiled and said, "Come here." As she said, the old lady moved a position and motioned Tang Wu to sit next to her.
The old lady held Tang Wu's hand and looked at it for a while, then slowly said: "I thought you would have a few days to get married. I didn't expect your Royal Highness to set the wedding date in April." This is now watching. It is about to enter the first month, April, that is, a flash of effort.
While talking, the old lady took out two lists and handed them to Tang Wu, "This is your dowry list, this one is prepared for you by your mother, and this one is prepared for you by my old lady. , Take a look."
Didn't Tang Wu grow up with the old lady like Cheng Xi? For a while, she didn't know whether she should take this dowry list or not.
Seeing the shyness of Tang Wu's eyes, the old lady stuffed things directly into her hands, and said, "Hurry up!"
Tang Wu looked back at Lin Fu subconsciously, and saw Lin Fu nodded at her.
"Thanks...thanks grandma."
When the old lady heard this, she suddenly turned her head and smiled at Lin Fu, "After all, it's still a good grandma, do you know what happened when Sister Xi took the dowry list from me two days ago?"
Lin Fu asked: "What did Sister Xi say?"
"She said, she has been looking forward to this dowry list for many years, so she should go back a little bit." When the old lady mentioned it, tears couldn't help but smile from the corner of her eyes.
Hearing this, Lin Fu also laughed, "Sister Xi is really a trick."
After a while, the old lady said again: "Grandma, grandma has lived to this age, not to mention how clear she is, but naturally I still have to tell you a few words about the relationship between the husband and wife. Grandma can see it, and your Royal Highness is very painful. You, but the husband and wife have to go for a lifetime, and no one can guarantee that what will happen in the future. Since you are the princess Ying, you must always remember, you must be a good housekeeper, and you must regard your husband as your heaven. Do you understand that those people are jealous and sour?"
Tang Wu knew that the old lady's words were for her own good, so he said word by word: "Granddaughter, please keep it in mind."
The old lady patted her on the shoulder and said: "Grandma, what grandma told you just now is for outsiders to see, and what she tells you now is what grandma really wants to talk to you."
The old lady smiled at the corner of her eyes, and her tone was light and slow, "If you are wronged in Prince Ying's Mansion in the future, don't think about fighting on your own no matter what! You are the eldest girl of Chengguo Mansion. Even if one day, you made a terrible mistake. , You have to remember that this is your home, even if grandma gives everything, she will protect you, can you remember?"
The old lady's words are not loud, but they are sonorous and powerful. Maybe her back is not straight, but she is still the pillar of the government.
As the old lady said, Tang Wu kept tears. In the end, the teardrops still couldn't hold back, and finally flowed down.
It is strange to say that she has suffered so much and hasn't cried much, but since returning to Cheng's house, her tears are often in her eyes.
Tang Wu clenched his fists, and finally summoned the courage to get into the arms of the old lady.
The old lady patted Tang Wu's back again and again.
The old lady closed her eyes slowly, as if she recalled the appearance of Tang Wu who was still swaddled a dozen years ago, waving her little hand, babbling.
"I'm getting old, you will marry one by one," the old lady whispered.
—
When King Ying returned to the mansion, it was time for dinner.
Concubine Chu side was reprimanding the servant on the side why she brought green onions that she didn't like to eat, and saw King Ying stepping into her yard.
Concubine Chu side stood up flattered and murmured, "His Royal Highness."
King Ying sat on the teapot aside, and Concubine Chu graciously picked up the teapot to pour tea to King Ying. She had been in the palace for many years and had never seen him at this time.
Concubine Chu drew her hair on both sides together, for fear that her appearance would not match the past, and for fear that he would just come to her to sit and sit.
"Have you eaten your Highness?" Concubine Chu said softly.
King Ying said in a low tone: "No."
Concubine Chu was very happy. She greeted her outside to change the food in the house, and then said a few more dishes, all of which he loved.
"No, this king is here today to tell you something." King Ying interrupted.
Perhaps women have a natural instinct. After hearing this, Chu Yan's heart just made a "chuckle" for no reason.
The smile on her face was a bit frozen, but she still waved away the people in the house intimately. After a while, there were only two people in the house, Ying Wang and Chu Yan.
There is no princess in the Ying Palace, and Tang Fang "died" again, so Chu Yan's power in the palace fell to Chu Yan.
Chu Yan seemed to be afraid that he would speak first, so she took the lead in mentioning the trivial things in the recent mansion, such as the expenses since the beginning of winter, the renovation project of Bright Moon Hall, and the trivial things in life.
King Ying did not interrupt, or in other words, he did not know where to interrupt.
After Chu Yan finished speaking, Wang Ying stopped his tea-drinking hand. He met Chu Yan's eyes and said every word: "In a few days, Xu Yuanzheng will return to his hometown for the elderly. For the first term, the king recommended your father to your majesty." This should have been a great good thing, but Chu Yan's heart couldn't help but tremble.
He put down the teacup, and then put a piece of paper and a copy of Shijishu governor's residence note on the table.
Chu Yan looked down, her eyes were red.
it turns out…
It really made her guess.
She knew that with her father’s ability, even if she stayed in the Taiyuan Hospital until his sixtieth year, she would not be able to sit in the upright position of the hospital. Most of the official positions in the capital are like this. If they climb to a certain position, they will stagnate. Therefore, the hospital is in the right position. Has become Chu's father's obsession.
By doing this, King Ying was tempting him.
Chu Yan knew that he had always been a one-of-a-kind person. Just like back then, after he was disappointed with her once, he never gave her a chance. She picked up the hukou on the side with a strong smile, and said with a trembling, "Dare to ask your majesty, this What is it?" Chu Yan had time to take a closer look, but next to the Shishihu post of Shijishu, the four characters "not married yet" directly burned her eyes.
"You and I have no real relationship with husband and wife, and it is not difficult to marry again."
His words seem to be thinking of her, but for Yu Chuyan, is it not a sharp knife to poke her heart and lungs? She looked at his handsome and unparalleled face with a light, and she didn't know whether the fire was too dazzling or the unwavering expression in his eyes stung her. For a while, she felt everything in front of her became blurred. stand up.
After King Ying finished speaking, he got up.
Chu Yan's hands trembled faintly, and it broke out at the moment he turned and left. A woman's unwillingness has always been terrifying and decisive. She ran outside and said heartbreakingly: "I was in the shop in the capital. I saw Miss Cheng from the back once."
"Is it her?" Chu Yan's throat and eyes trembled.
Is it her?
King Ying didn't say a word, his pace was hurried, without even a slight pause.
Until the night, Chu Yan didn't know what she was thinking of. She suddenly sat up, took out the famous post, flipped through it, and finally saw the name of Shishi governor.
Jiang Wei.
It turned out to be Jiang Wei.
This is her childhood sweetheart. If it weren't for her father's love for fame and love, she must have become Mrs. Jiang.
Chu Yan slowly closed his eyes, and he suddenly understood why King Ying had to insist on making peace with Anru'er, and suddenly understood why Xitongyuan died without warning after giving birth to the princess.
He played a big game of chess, the game is changeable, and he has both homes and gains, but the only thing that remains unchanged is to make the big girl of the Cheng family be the princess of Ying in good standing.
Chu Yan suddenly laughed, and she suddenly remembered the day when the Yuguo spies took Tang Wu away. It was the first time she saw him with scarlet eyes, and she was desperate.
She didn't know until then.
It turned out that he was not born cold-hearted and cold-hearted.
It turned out that His Royal Highness King Ying was just a layman, and he would go crazy because of a woman's soul.
It's just that the person who hooked his soul was not himself.
—
When King Ying returned to Sui'antang, he reluctantly took out two books on learning embroidery.
Then in the unmanned inner room, first cut a piece of yellow cloth, measure it back and forth, and then embed the silk and satin into the embroidered stretch in a decent manner.
He turned to the first page and entered the goal, which was a duck pattern.
He couldn't help laughing.
