Absolutely!After crossing over, my maid is also reborn

Chapter 48 Mrs. Nanyang Hou sends an invitation

"The Shen family? Is it the Luoping Imperial Merchant, the richest Shen family?" Zhao Shun pretended not to know.

"That's right, the wife of their family and my mother-in-law used to be old acquaintances, and the two children also knew each other since they were young, but after the death of my wife, the two families stopped interacting very much. It's a merchant, it's wrong to be in the wrong family, how to get married? If your brother-in-law and colleagues know about this, I don't know how to discuss it." Mrs. Hou looked helpless.

Zhao Shun took a sip of tea, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth inadvertently, and then he pretended to be an outsider and started to comment.

"Since I came to Luoping, I have heard a lot about this daughter of the Shen family. It is said that she was divorced first, and then the Meng family, who was originally married to her, married her concubine sister instead. This little girl He is very capable, but now he has become ambiguous with Xingze again."

"That's right! How could Xingze marry a woman with such a style? I don't know what tricks that little girl used to make Xingze fall in love with her so much! This child is honest and has almost never talked back to us, because She actually got into a quarrel with the elders, and even made a quarrel like this." Mrs. Hou said.

"Okay, there's no need to talk about those things, let Xingze calm down and think about it, he will figure it out." Nanyang Hou said.

After all, Madam Hou gave him a blank look, "Linchuan is not an outsider, so what's the matter if you say a few words?"

Nanyang Hou quickly picked up the teacup, hiding his embarrassment.

Outsiders only see the boundless scenery of Nanyanghou, but they don't expect that he is henpecked at home.

"By the way, Linchuan, what is the good news you mentioned?" Mrs. Hou asked.

"Oh, it's like this. For many years, the frontier has been in chaos. General Wei has been stationed in the frontier for ten years. Now he has been recalled to Beijing by His Majesty. I heard that His Majesty intends to give a marriage to General Wei's daughter, Wei Junqiao. There are not many children from suitable families in the capital, and later someone suggested that Lord Mu's only son is the best match because both families are military generals." Zhao Shun said.

Mrs. Hou was a little excited when she heard the news, "General Wei's daughter-in-law, she is from a famous family!"

"That's right, it's also suitable for Xingzhe." Zhao Shun added.

The Marquis of Nanyang showed embarrassment: "General Wei has just been recalled to the capital, and before enjoying family happiness with his wife and daughter, the daughter is about to marry out to Luoping, I'm afraid there is something wrong..."

"Your Majesty thinks the same way, so I want to recall you to the capital. The ancestor of the Mu family still has a house in the capital, and it has been unoccupied for a long time now. I will send someone to repair it later." Zhao Shun said.

"Great! I'm finally going back to Beijing! Unexpectedly, it was thanks to the blessing of General Wei!" Mrs. Hou said.

"This……"

Nanyang Hou picked up the teacup again. It looked like he didn't want to go back to the capital, after all, he had stayed in Luoping for so many years.

"Brother-in-law, I know you don't want to part with Luoping. Your foundation is here, but... because of this, you should go back. Your Mu family has been in Luoping for many years, and being recalled to Beijing to enjoy a idle job at this time can make His Majesty miss you. It’s hard work, and all relatives and friends are in the capital, so it’s not beautiful to see each other from time to time, why should His Majesty be jealous because of the dominant side?” Zhao Shun persuaded.

Mrs. Hou looked panicked and looked at her husband, "Master Hou, what Lin Chuan said makes sense. We are always here in Luoping City, and we still have military power in our hands. I'm afraid it will make the officials jealous. You and I are not young. Well, the most important thing is to be safe. Now that the government intends to grant a marriage, it is also a good thing for our family."

Nanyang Hou thought about it for a while, and finally nodded. It seems that this is the best result, and he retreated to enjoy his old age in peace.

"Today I plan to leave for Beijing to report on my duties. I will be back within three days. There are still some trivial matters that need to be sorted out. At that time, it is estimated that His Majesty's will will be handed over to me. You also pack up and get ready. Xingze over there You have to persuade him well," Zhao Shun said.

"So, thank you for your hard work, Young Master." Nanyang Hou said.

Madam Hou sighed at this moment, thinking of her son, she felt another headache.

"That kid Xing'er is stubborn, and he will never let go of what he is sure of. I'm afraid it will be difficult to persuade him."

Zhao Shun chuckled, "Since that's the case, why should we bother to persuade Xingzhe to give up? In my opinion, sister might as well go directly to the Shen family's daughter and tell her everything. If she really likes Xingzhe, she must not She will see Xingzhe give up her great future and marriage and go down with her, if she covets the power and status of the Mu family and refuses to give up, then we will get twice the result with half the effort if we try to persuade Xingzhe at this time."

Mrs. Hou suddenly realized that Zhao Shun's words had completely reached her heart, and it really was the best strategy!
"Yes! If this woman refuses to give up like this, our family will not be able to have such a daughter-in-law!" Madam Hou suddenly realized that the big stone that was pressing on her chest fell to the ground instantly.

"If it's really not possible, why not let Xingze accept her as a concubine?" Zhao Shun suggested again.

Madam Hou nodded, "That's right, but if you want to take her as a concubine, you have to wait until Xingze gets married. It depends on whether she is willing to wait."

When Zhao Shun was discussing with Mrs. Hou, Nanyanghou kept silent. He just felt that these two people were simply unreasonable, to plan against a little girl like this!What's more, they can be regarded as watching Shen Qinglan grow up since childhood.
-
In the afternoon, after taking a nap, Shen Qinglan got up lazily, and was going to go for a walk in the garden to see how the pair of cranes are doing. If they are not doing well, they have to learn from Qian Lingshuang.

"Yan'er! Is my goose-yellow gauze dress finished washing?"

Shen Qinglan asked, and Yan'er also ran into the house.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Where did you go?"

Holding a post in her hand, Yan'er said wheezingly: "The boy at the main gate sent it, saying it was a post from Mrs. Nanyanghou to Miss."

"Huh? Mrs. Nanyang Hou?" Shen Qinglan murmured.

"Master Hou must have convinced them, that's why Madam Hou invited you over!"

As Yan'er said, Shen Qinglan opened the invitation card, which invited her to enjoy the flowers in the cherry garden of Nanyang Hou Mansion at Shen Shi tomorrow afternoon.

"Mrs. Hou invited me to enjoy the flowers. Go and find out if this Nanyang Hou Mansion has invited anyone else." Shen Qinglan said, picked up the kettle and poured a glass of water. At this moment, she was a little flustered for no reason.

"When the post was delivered, I was watching the cranes in the middle hall, so I asked the boy to catch up with the person sent by the Nanyang Hou Mansion, and asked him. Mrs. Hou didn't invite anyone else, but only the young lady." Yan'er was very happy, she felt that there was hope for the young master and the young lady.

Shen Qinglan didn't speak, Yan'er sat down beside her, and said, "Miss, why is she so unhappy? This is a good thing! Mrs. Hou only invited Miss to go alone, so there must be some thoughtful things to say to her." Miss said!"

Shen Qinglan shook his head, "If that's the case, it should be a letter of greeting sent to grandma or parents, and they will come to Shen's mansion to discuss the matter, instead of inviting me to Nanyang Hou's mansion to meet alone."

She hasn't heard of the woman coming to the door alone to discuss marriage with the man's parents. What is this?
