Chapter 156: Miss Xu's marriage
Chapter 156 Miss Xu’s Marriage
Regardless of his position, what should he do if a girl asks to keep him?
To be honest, as a friend, he does not want to reject each other.
But he has always been a principled person. Now that he has made a decision, he should not be disturbed by external factors—
"Should I haven't had lunch yet, right?"
The queen smiled and said to her nephew who was inexplicably troubled: "It's better to wait and go back after lunch."
Wu Chao thought for a while and nodded slightly.
It is rare to see him and his aunt, and he is about to leave Beijing right now. It is something that younger generations should do to spend a meal with his aunt.
The queen confessed to Grandma Jiang who was beside her: "Grandma, please go to the royal dining room in person."
Mother Jiang is the old servant of the Wu family. Before Wu Chao entered Beijing this time, she deliberately found out the eating habits of her grandson. She went to the imperial dining room to give orders, which was the most appropriate.
"There are no other people on the left and right, so I don’t stick to too much today."
Queen took Wu Chao and Xu Mingyi to the Dongnuan Pavilion. There is no short table to serve guests separately, but only a large carved sandalwood table with eight immortals.
The Queen sat in the upright position, while Wu Chao and Xu Mingyi were seated on their sides.
The palace maid who passed the meal filed in with a tray, and Mother Jiang was by the side indicating which dish to put in which position.
Wu Chao glanced at it, and seemed to say casually: "If you can, change the dishes for one or two."
Ranny Jiang was startled slightly.
The dishes placed in front of Shi Sun are all according to Shi Sun’s preferences. How can Shi Sun specifically say that they need to be changed?
Could it be that after coming to the capital, you suddenly changed your taste?
Thinking about this, Madam Jiang subconsciously looked at her mother-in-law.
The queen smiled and nodded, but her eyes flickered.
Something is wrong with A Yuan in her house...
Orthodox family children, they all have the habit of not picking up the food from other places even if the food in front of them is not appetizing, let alone asking for a replacement.
It’s even more needless to mention that A Yuan is the grandson of the Wu family. These rules have been carved into the bones since childhood. It is said that such things can never be said from his mouth...
The maid quickly changed the dishes.
Looking at the food in front of him, Xu Mingyi also felt a little strange.
These are indeed the dishes that Wu Yun likes to eat in her impression. That’s right. In Qingfeng Building that day, she ordered such dishes. Remember how he was eating very happily?
"My nephew respects my aunt."
After the maid arranged all the dishes and chopsticks, the boy raised the wine glass.
The queen smiled and raised the fruit wine in front of her.
Xu Mingyi also drank a cup of fruit wine.
"Move the chopsticks." The queen picked up the chopsticks and looked at the two children beside her with gentle eyes.
Xu Mingyi tasted the two dishes in front of him, but they were quite delicious.
At the same time, a guess suddenly appeared from the bottom of my heart—Wu Zhao didn’t think she liked what she ordered in Qingfeng Tower that day, didn’t she?
She has always had no doubts about Wu Shisun’s education and demeanor, and she also sees the righteousness shown by the other party these days, and even vaguely makes people feel very cheating...
But these are all established before the main business, how can he be so caring and thoughtful in private matters?
In her previous life, she always thought that this was a person who acted simply, afraid of trouble, and therefore talked much less than ordinary people—
How did he feel wrong, Xu Mingyi couldn't help quietly raising his eyes to look at the young man sitting opposite him.
Adolescents are good-looking, they are also very good-looking, their movements are not slow, and there is not much sense of slowness, but they are also pleasing to the eye.
Perceiving this line of sight, Wu Chao's chewing movement paused slightly.
Xu Mingyi was also a keen person. Seeing him, he seemed to be aware, so he immediately retracted his gaze and started to eat honestly.
Seeing her like this in Yu Guangli, Wu Chao moved the corners of his mouth seemingly.
I just want to see him openly. He is not such a stingy person.
At this moment, the teenager completely forgot the uncontrollable urge to explode when he was stared at.
After a meal, the maid removed the meal and replaced it with tea.
The queen seemed to be in a particularly good mood today. She drank a lot of fruit wine during the dinner, and she kept smiling on her face. After talking about daily routines with her nephew for a while, she turned her gaze back to the girl beside her.
"Miss Xu should have sixteen this year, right?" the queen asked with a smile.
Xu Mingyi nodded: "Hui Niangniang, that's it."
On this point alone, even the queen empress is much better than her second uncle who can’t remember exactly how old she is.
"It's supposed to be time to worry about the family." The queen smiled and approached gently: "If there is no one in the family who is discussing, do I need to pay attention to you?"
Wu Chao frowned slightly.
Aunt, is this drunk?
Why bother to ask about the marriage of another girl.
"There is no one who is discussing it." Xu Mingyi smiled, showing no shame on his face.
She also noticed that when the Empress brought up this matter, she really regarded her as a favorite junior, rather than thinking about her and wanting to intervene in her family affairs.
"Speaking of which, we will be recruiting scholars in the spring next year..." The queen said: "If there are talents with both talents and appearances, you can pay more attention to it."
Before Xu Mingyi had time to answer, he only listened to the sermon on the side: "Miss Xu is an ordinary scholar, she is afraid that she will not get along with her easily."
According to her temperament of “tell me if you are convinced”, how could a weak scholar be her opponent?
Furthermore, it is also risky to catch a son-in-law under the list. Those jinshis come from all over the world, so it is difficult to get the true details and character.
In his opinion, it is not reliable at all.
It’s rare to see her nephew talk so much. The queen pressed her heart down and said with a smile to Xu Mingyi: "A Yuan also makes sense. If a scholar is not in line with his wishes, among those military commanders who are familiar with the town’s grandfather, perhaps they can carefully Pick one."
As soon as she finished her words, she saw her nephew frown again.
The corners of the queen’s mouth narrowed with a smile—Is her family A Yuan dissatisfied?
Sure enough, the young man took the words and preached in a serious tone: "It has only been decades since the founding of Daqing. Most generals are from reckless backgrounds, and there are still shortcomings in the education of their children. Although the heroes do not matter where they come from, but if they want to choose husbands and sons, they may not be. A good match."
Find someone who is also born in Jiangmen, and the two of them will do it if they don’t agree. How can they live in harmony?
He still feels unreliable.
The queen looked at her nephew with complicated eyes.
He who is literary dislikes too literary, and who is martial, he dislikes too martial...
—What is the feeling that this old man-in-law and son-in-law can’t get into his eyes anyway?
In the future, if he has a daughter, I am afraid that he will have to live and die for the son-in-law, right?
Xu Mingyi also looked at the serious teenager.
Thinking more comprehensively than her father, is Wu Shisun so worried about her marriage?
Good evening
Thank you for your monthly pass.
