The beauty of the lady

Chapter 175 Poisonous Tongue (2)
"Auntie, Zhao Ruolan, siblings, and siblings haven't been out of the yard in the past few days?" Zhou Mei asked.

"Yeah, Sister Lan and Brother Fei have scars on their faces now, how can they be willing to walk out of their own yard, but Sister Xian, although there is nothing wrong, but after the smallpox, they never go out again, and their temper is not good. became very irritable."

What happened to the girl in this family? It feels like the Zhao family is cursed, and no one is good.

Mrs. Hou Yehou, who is in charge of the family, is all in poor health, as are the three young masters and young ladies from the concubine, and the second young lady from the concubine spends most of her time in the house with Aunt Wang, and she can see her once in a while. But it was very gloomy, the situation in the mansion was such that the people around couldn't be happy.

The reason why I can still be so happy now is that my husband has hope, my son has studied very hard in the Imperial College, and although my daughter is not with me, she will come back intact in two years. The hard life of their family It's over, and it's enough to dispel those minor dissatisfaction.

"Now that Zhao Ruolan has been divorced, what is Auntie's plan? You can't just let her stay in the house forever?"

The Lu family is actually very distressed, but Zhao Ruolan's marriage is really difficult for her to intervene, and in her heart, getting married is a good thing for two surnames. With Zhao Ruolan's temperament, marrying someone else's family, wouldn't it make everyone feel uncomfortable? It's so hard to be offended, but if you don't marry someone below, you can't talk about marriage, it's really difficult.

She looked up at Zhao Chengyin, and saw that he was still buried in the side of the book in his hand, and finally did not say what was on his lips.

"I still have to ask Grandma Sun about this matter to see if she can ask my mother for advice. As a sister-in-law, it's really hard for me to make a decision for her. In case the in-laws don't form a family, but they all end up being rejected by them." complained."

"Mrs. Hou can't speak a word now. Besides, if she knows that her eldest daughter has been divorced by the merchant, it's not a joke." Maybe the illness will continue to recur.

Think about it, that child of the Sun family is really unlucky, especially remembering the moment I saw her last year, she was really extravagant, full of momentum, and beautiful in appearance, she became what she is now in just a few months, It's really a trick of good fortune.

But in Zhou Mei's eyes, it's her own fault.

"Although that is the case, you can't go beyond your mother to find sister Lan's husband's house. After all, you have to ask her."

"That's right, I'm 16 years old this year, so it's time to prepare early."

On the morning of the second day, Mrs. Lu called Nanny Sun over.

Grandma Sun came over after serving Mrs. Sun's medicine, and blessed her body when she saw Mrs. Lu.

"Young madam, do you have something to explain when you summon your servant?"

Lu raised her head from the account book, said with a smile, "I have something to discuss with Grandma Sun, so Nanny Sun can sit down."

"Yes!"

After she sat down, Mrs. Sun said awkwardly: "Nurse Sun must also know about our resignation with the Su family, and the eldest sister is already 16 years old this year, and she will be married at the age of 15 in the Great Yan Dynasty. Now regarding the elder sister's marriage, does Nanny Sun have any opinions?"

Grandma Sun's complexion suddenly turned dark. She is extremely dissatisfied with the Su family now, not to mention that it is a merchant's family, and she dared to take the initiative to withdraw the marriage, but the eldest lady will cancel the marriage as soon as the smallpox is over. Anyone who knows it will know She said that the Su family looked down on her young lady, so how could she be reconciled.

But what the young lady said is right, the young lady is not young, if she doesn't marry again, the young lady will be ruined, but who can the young lady marry now?

"Young Madam, do you have a suitable candidate in mind?"

Lu sighed regretfully and said: "It stands to reason that the young master of the Su family chosen by my mother for the eldest sister is really suitable. Although he is not a member of the officialdom, when the head of the Su family came over that day, the uncle said that he is a very personable character. It's a pity that this marriage can't be done now. Presumably Grandma Sun also knows that our Hou's mansion is different from the past. It is really difficult to find a good family first. I mean, it is better to find someone with a slightly worse family background. The eldest sister will marry her. At least there are brothers and the Marquis's backing behind him, the family background is too good, I'm afraid..."

Her words were not too straightforward, but Nanny Sun knew in her heart that the eldest lady's appearance was ruined, and the dark spots all over her face needed a thick layer of makeup to cover them up, which really made her feel very distressed.

Although she felt dissatisfied in her heart, she also understood that the young lady was right.

It's really difficult for a young lady with a disfigured face to marry into a well-matched family as a first wife.

What made her difficult was that the young lady really couldn't afford it anymore.

Now the wife is so miserable, the eldest lady's marriage really needs to be arranged sooner.

"Young Madam, let this servant go back and discuss this matter with Madam."

Lu nodded and smiled, "It's natural, but Nanny Sun's tone was as tactful as possible. After all, mother is very satisfied with Patriarch Su."

Nanny Sun nodded, got up, said goodbye and left.

At this time, the protagonist of the incident, Zhao Ruolan, was lying on the bed with a sullen expression on her face. Except for the time when she was out, she usually stayed in the room, nestled on the bed, and couldn't speak a word for a day.

When Zhou Mei came over, everyone seemed to see a savior, and hurriedly welcomed her in respectfully.

"Miss Biao, you are here, help us persuade the eldest lady, she hasn't gone out for many days."

"I see."

"The maidservant will serve refreshments to Miss Biao, and Miss Biao will invite you inside."

Zhou Mei nodded and walked in, then said to the two girls behind her, "Just walk around in the yard, I can go in by myself."

When I came to Zhao Ruolan's dormitory, I saw her leaning on the bedpost, looking out of the open window in a daze, with longing in her eyes.

"This is Chengbei Hou's Mansion. If you want to go out, someone can take you out for a walk." Zhou Mei walked over there, opened the window wider, and the warm wind rushed in with the fragrance of flowers in an instant, and slightly dispersed the room. weird taste.

When Zhao Ruolan saw the window, she seemed to go crazy the next moment. She jumped out of bed and ran over barefoot, closed the window forcefully, then turned around with her face darkened, and lifted the quilt to wrap her whole body up. skin.

"Get out!" Zhao Ruolan's muffled voice came from the brocade quilt.

Zhou Mei didn't care, opened the window again, then walked to the round table in the room and sat down without speaking.

Not long after, the girl from the courtyard came in to offer refreshments, and then left quietly, with a nervous look on her face, probably because she was afraid of Zhao Ruolan now.

She poured herself a cup of tea leisurely, and after drinking two cups, she said to her, "Are you going to stay in your room for the rest of your life? And not get married?"
