My Cousin is So Weak

Chapter 59: The old husband climbed to the top (additional update)

"If you think about it carefully, have you offended anyone today?"

Mrs. Li's words made Li Liuqing a little confused, but since her mother asked this, it made sense for her to ask, so she thought about it while enduring the pain, and finally shook her head helplessly.

"My daughter has been talking to the sisters from the Shi family since she entered the house. She also drank wine together. Nothing inappropriate happened, let alone offending anyone, but..."

"Just what?"

"I just saw General Pei standing with his newly engaged daughter of the Jiang family. I felt a little unhappy, so I said a few random words. But when I said that, my daughter's voice was very low. There would be no other words. People hear it.”

Li Liuqing's determination made Mrs. Li a little unsure.

Such a banquet must have been carefully inspected by everyone in Wenyuanhou's house, so there would never be a situation where someone touched the peach and then touched the wine cup. The only possibility was that the daughter had offended someone unintentionally, and then Being retaliated against.

But when she said this, she seemed to be a bit out of line.

After all, the eldest girl from the Jiang family whom her daughter targeted had never even gotten close to her, so how could she possibly take revenge on her?

For a while, both mother and daughter fell into deep thought.

On the contrary, Li Liuyun on the side had some calculation flashing in his eyes, and he said excitedly to the two of them.

"Mother, this is not the time to dwell on this matter. What happened to Third Sister in Wenyuanhou's Mansion should be the responsibility of Wenyuanhou's Mansion. If there is really any scar on her face, or maybe If the rumors outside affect her future marriage, it will naturally be blamed on Marquis Wenyuan's house."

"What do you mean?"

Mrs. Li glanced at her son and had a bad feeling.

"There are four sons in Wenyuanhou's house, all of them are legitimate children. Although the eldest son is married, there are three brothers below him. Leaving aside the youngest one, aren't the second and third sons of this family just at the age of getting married? ? And there has never been any talk about anyone wanting to get married to them, wouldn’t it be just right for Third Sister to choose one of them? "

Hearing this, Mrs. Li suddenly felt that it was a blessing in disguise, but what Li Liuqing was thinking about was Pei Zifeng. How could he like brothers Wang Kuan and Wang Hong, so he suddenly started a quarrel.

"Bah, brother, you are really good at scheming. All day long, you have been wishing to give away all our sisters to pave the way for you. Let me tell you, even if the young master of Wenyuanhou Mansion comes to visit, I will also want to think about it. Don't get married. If you make a fuss about this matter, I will definitely...I will definitely go to the palace and tell my aunt and let her make the decision for me!"

Among the younger members of the Li family, the third girl was the most loved by Concubine Li, so she really had the right to say what she said, so Li Liuyun curled her lips, and then her tone became less strong.

"I just said that, don't you have to nod your head? Don't always bring aunt out to suppress people. I'm still the third prince's escort, and I can't manipulate people like you!"

"you!"

The two brothers and sister were like fighting **** and almost started to quarrel in Wenyuanhou's mansion. Seeing that they were so dishonest, Mrs. Li quickly scolded them and said.

"Nonsense, what did your father say when he went out? If he hadn't been involved in court affairs today, he would definitely have come together. If he saw the two of you like this, wouldn't he have to get furious? If you don't want to be scolded, just Please behave yourself. It’s no longer appropriate to stay after the chaos today. It’s better to go back first and then make plans.”

The brother and sister lowered their heads. Although they were unwilling to give up, they still did not dare to talk nonsense when facing their mother. So after gathering their emotions, the Li family left today's place first under the arrangement of Wenyuan Houfu. Banquet.

When they left, they were still full of doubts.

But in the inner courtyard, Jiang Shiyuan still showed a helpless expression after learning that the incident involving Miss Li San was caused by him. "Sister-in-law is too blatant. If the Li family insists on making a big fuss about today's incident, wouldn't it disturb my aunt's birthday party?"

"Now she dares to be so arrogant even inside our own house. If she is still not sure how powerful she is outside, let her rest at home and take care of her face. She will go out less to parties and spread less nonsense!"

Feeling the protection of his family, Jiang Shiyuan felt an indescribable touch.

But Pei Zisu on the side obviously couldn't let go of Li Liuqing's temper so easily, so after looking at each other with Pei Ziyao, it became clear that the two brothers and sisters had a tacit understanding for many years. Not enough to relieve anger.

Didn't she plausibly say that Jiang Shiyuan might not live long enough to marry into the Pei family? Okay, then the two brothers and sisters will let her know who the Lord Yama wants to take!

Both of them had come to a conclusion in their minds, but they didn't want to be affected by this on their big day, so they didn't say anything. They just stood aside silently and calculated secretly, until suddenly there was a sound of greetings from outside, and they saw the king waiting. The parrot beside the old lady came in.

"Madam, Princess Qinghuan is here. The old lady asked you to take everyone over to meet her."

"That's natural. Let's go, Anian. It's more important to see the princess!"

Jiang Shiyuan didn't think much about anything else, and followed her cousin-in-law Xiang out of the door together. But where she didn't notice, Pei Ziyao had already left first under the pretext of going to Chuxugong, and her target They are the Li family who are preparing to leave the house.

The Pei family has always insisted on retribution. If today's matter was revealed so lightly, even if she agreed, the nine-knot whip in her hand would not agree, so she walked in the direction of the concierge with light steps.

Pei Zifeng didn't stop him. He knew that the seriousness of his sister's attack would not affect today's occasion, so he didn't say anything more. Instead, when they went to the front hall, he saw Princess Qinghuan and Mrs. Wang already. Mrs. Xiang and others were already talking and laughing, quite harmoniously.

"The princess has arrived, but my wife and I are far away to greet you. Please forgive me for my sins."

"Young lady, don't be polite to me. I have a very good relationship with the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. Naturally, Marquis Wenyuan's Mansion is also a place that I value dearly. It's Madam Hou's birthday today and I'm late. I'll be there later." Three cups of punishment is the penalty.”

If there were only a few people around, they would be closer, but now the king and his ministers still have to take care of themselves in front of everyone, so Princess Qinghuan did not tell Jiang Shiyuan's maiden name.

But these are still small things. What shocked Jiang Shiyuan again was that Princess Qinghuan was not alone this time. In addition to Aunt Shen, who was always waiting for her, there was also Cheng Dengping.

His eyes were gloomy, as if he had something to hide.

But looking at him, he was dressed in rich clothes, and his face was more refined than before. At this point, Jiang Shiyuan couldn't understand why he was still a "prisoner" a few days ago, but today he was transformed into a follower of Princess Qinghuan. who.

For a moment, doubts came to mind.

Obviously, this scene was seen by Princess Qinghuan. She was calm and pointed at the person standing next to her.

"Oh, by the way, this is the prince-in-law whom I have chosen personally. My surname is Cheng. He is a Jinshi in the 10th year of Shengkang. My father has already agreed to our marriage. It will be on August 28th. By then I’ll treat everyone to a banquet!”

Princess Qinghuan's words were like a thunderclap.

Everyone present looked at each other in shock. Even Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xiang, who were used to seeing wind and rain, were also shocked and didn't know what to say.
