Chapter 185: Competition for marriage

Rong Wan hired a painter who was good at painting figures and asked him to secretly look at Rong Yue and draw a portrait of an alluring city.She asked a guard named Zhang Yi to take the portrait and pretend to be a young master who went to Goulan to have fun, waiting for Wang Wendan, the son of the household minister's family, to show up.

Wang Wendan really reported to Goulan Courtyard every day.Zhang Yi pretended to touch him and dropped the portrait in his hand in front of Prince Wang.When the prince saw the portrait, he was astonished and asked who was the person in the painting?Then he forcefully pulled Zhang Yi aside to have a drink and asked him to introduce the woman in the painting.

Zhang Yi pretended not to want to say anything at first. After drinking a few glasses of wine, he pretended to be drunk again and confided to him: "This fairy, I fell in love with her at first sight. Do you know who she is? She It's actually Rong Yue, the eldest daughter of the Rong Mansion! Do you know that Rong Yue? The Miss Rong that everyone laughed at a few years ago is actually as beautiful as a fairy! She is even more beautiful than this portrait! It's simply Fairy descends to earth.”

Wang Wendan has always been hanging out in brothels and doesn't care about chastity at all.He loves beauties very much, and as long as they are beautiful, he must get them.But when he heard that it was Miss Rong, he was a little scared: "It turns out to be her! What a pity! If it were an ordinary woman, I, Wang Wendan, would definitely get it. But she is the eldest Miss Rong Mansion. Although she has lost her virginity. , and don’t allow others to be presumptuous easily.”

Zhang Yi pretended to be drunk and said in a daze: "That's right! I thought so too. I was fascinated by her as soon as I saw her. However, even if she has lost her virginity, she is still the eldest lady of the Rong Mansion. I also heard that she was defiled and gave birth to a child, who is now almost four years old. Tell me, which beggar was so lucky that Miss Rong gave birth to a child for him? What if I was that Beggar, I will definitely come to your door to recognize you."

Wang Wendan said thoughtfully: "That beggar back then? Even if that beggar really came to ask for marriage, Miss Rong wouldn't agree, right?"

Zhang Yi said with inducement: "Of course. If that person was a beggar back then, Miss Rong would certainly not have agreed. However, if that person was not a beggar, but a gentle man with status and status like Mr. Wang. Someone comes to ask for marriage? Then Miss Rong must be overjoyed. Unfortunately, I am of low status and cannot reach the Rong family. If I have an identity like Mr. Wang, I must try. If I insist that I am the one back then Who can prove that I am not a beggar?”

After Wang Wendan heard this, his heart moved slightly: "I wonder if Miss Rong is really as beautiful as the fairy in the portrait?"

The next day, Wang Wendan went to the gate of Rong Mansion to wait, hoping to see Rong Yue's true appearance.He specially bribed a boy to inquire about Rong Yue's daily schedule and whether she would go out.This boy was greedy for money, so he took a small amount of money and told him Rong Yue's itinerary that she would go out every morning and come back at night.

As a result, he actually saw Rong Yue's appearance when she went out in the morning outside the gate of Rong Mansion.Although Rong Yue doesn't wear heavy makeup when she goes out, Wang Wendan was shocked when she looked at her without makeup. She felt that she was even more beautiful than the portrait, elegant and refined, as beautiful as a fairy.The portrait is dead anyway. It depicts her beauty, but fails to depict her aura and temperament.

So, when Wang Wendan came home, he asked his parents to prepare three letters and six rites for him, saying that he wanted to propose marriage to Rong Yue.

Wang Wendan's father was Wang Shangzhi, the Minister of Household Affairs. His wife, Zhang Cuiyan, spoiled Wang Wendan since she was a child and raised him to waste, but she still regarded him as her darling.The couple can't control him now and can only let it go.I couldn't help but be overjoyed when I heard that he was going to formally ask for marriage.He thought to himself that it would be great if he could marry a real wife and come back to control him.

When they heard that she was the eldest daughter of the Rong Mansion, they immediately objected: "No! It's not good for you to marry someone. Why did you marry her? Her reputation in Beijing was ruined. Forget it, she lost her virginity. I heard that she gave birth to a beggar's son. . Do you want our family to be laughed at? This matter has made everyone in Beijing aware of it, and our family cannot afford to lose this person."

Wang Wendan said, "I don't care! You also know that I am infected with the unclean disease and I don't know when I will die. Who is a serious girl willing to marry me? I am unclean and she is not chaste." , she and I happen to be a couple. I have fallen in love with her. You can find a matchmaker to come to your door to ask for a hand in marriage. Maybe she will marry me?" Both Wang Shilang and his wife knew that their son was infected with the disease, but they She still regards her son as a treasure, and still feels that the eldest daughter of the Rong family is not worthy of their son.However, their son's words left them speechless.What kind of virtue does your son have?How many matchmakers have you found?As long as someone inquires and finds out that their son is sick, who would still want to marry their daughter?Those from small families, those who are greedy for money, those who are not good-looking, are looked down upon by their sons.

So, the couple really prepared the three books and six etiquettes, invited the matchmaker, and went to Rong Mansion to propose marriage openly and openly.

Inside the mansion.

When Mrs. Rong Chen Guilian heard that the son of the Wang family had really come to ask for her hand in marriage, she couldn't help but beam with joy. She immediately asked her servants to politely invite the Wang family to the hall for tea, and also had Mrs. Rong informed.

Mrs. Rong was also worried about Rong Yue.Rong Yue and Rong Bao moved in, but she didn't have time to ask Rong Yue about recruiting a son-in-law in the countryside.In fact, the words came to her lips several times, but Mrs. Rong held back and did not ask.The reason was that Mrs. Rong saw that Rong Yue only brought Rong Bao back and did not bring her son-in-law, so she thought that the husband she recruited in the country must be shady and did not dare to bring him back.Therefore, every time I wanted to ask, I stopped, for fear of making Rong Yue unhappy.

Mrs. Rong had originally wanted Rong Yue to find another son-in-law.Therefore, when I heard that someone came to ask for Rong Yue's hand in marriage, I was really happy for Rong Yue and came to the hall happily.However, when he saw that it was Wang Wendan, the son of Wang Shilang, who came to ask for his hand in marriage, his face immediately dropped.

The news that the prince was ill had already spread in Beijing. Didn't Mrs. Rong know about it?Therefore, as soon as he saw the prince, he wanted to drive away the guest.However, Mrs. Chen Guilian happily sent someone to send Rong Yue over.

It happened that Rong Yue didn't go out today, so Chen Guilian asked someone to send a message that Mrs. Rong had invited her to come to the hall, and she rushed over immediately.As soon as I walked in, I realized that there were guests today.But she still crossed the threshold and walked in generously.

Rong Yue was just wearing a plain long dress, and her hair was combed by a maid. She looked like a serious young lady popular in this time and space. She did not wear rouge and gouache on her face, but her face was like a hibiscus, her nose was red and her lips were red, and her eyes were like autumn water. Like a ray of light and shadow, it captures the heart and soul, making people unable to look away.

When Prince Wang saw Rong Yue, his eyes lit up with surprise!Wang Shilang and his wife, who were just following their son at first and were very resistant to this visit to propose marriage, also saw Rong Yue coming in. Their eyes lit up and their attitudes changed 180 degrees.Although Miss Rong's reputation outside was very poor, they were very satisfied with her appearance.If their son can marry such a wife, they must support her.

After seeing the ceremony, Rong Yue sat down next to Mrs. Rong.So, Chen Guilian explained that the Wang family came to propose marriage to Rong Yue.Rong Yue didn't like it when she heard it.However, she was still very polite and did not offend anyone. She just said a little coldly: "Grandma, did I forget to tell grandma that I got a husband in the country?"
