There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 322 A grand wedding is not as good as a sincere heart (one more)
Li Jiaoniang said, "It wasn't all of a sudden, but just now when I was resting at the female family's side, I overheard someone talking about the hair ornament on my head, saying that this pearl butterfly hairpin belongs to Princess Chengyang."

"..."

"They also said that Princess Chengyang's son-in-law committed crimes, and Princess Chengyang didn't get a good death. I thought, why did Princess Chengyang's hair accessories end up in the hands of my cousin and grandmother? Did she even give it to me? "

"It's just a hair accessory, it won't matter." Luo Cheng held her hand, "Don't think about it."

"Really?" Li Jiaoniang took off the pearl hairpin and held it in her hand to look at it. "No wonder when I saw this jewelry, I found that the workmanship was extraordinarily exquisite. It was originally from the royal family. If there is no trouble, I will wear it." That's it."

She believed that Mrs. Lu would not intentionally harm her either.

Luo Cheng added, "After the death of Mrs. Lu, he was posthumously named the Duke of Chu. The current status of Mrs. Lu is still the wife of Mrs. Chu."

"..."

"It's not a strange thing that she has ornaments from the royal family. The official family rewards the family members of veteran ministers with gifts every year."

"..."

"The old lady gave it to you. She must know that she can give it to you. You just wear it. If someone asks, tell the truth."

If the gift was someone else's item, he would not let Jiao Niang accept it.

But this is Princess Chengyang's...

He can't say no.

Only Jiao Niang can wear Princess Cheng Yang's accessories, and no one else is worthy!

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "I'm relieved when you say that. I thought it was a big deal and almost scared me."

She smiled and put the pearl hairpin on her head.

"I'll help you put it on." Luo Cheng took it over and carefully inserted|tucked it into her hair.

After scrutinizing it for a while, he said, "Jiaoniang... what do you think, what kind of people are Ning Guogong and Chengyang Princess? Are they good people or bad people?"

Li Jiaoniang stroked her bun and said, "I don't know much information. I just listened to people chatting and heard some news. I can't tell. After all, it's just a pair of tragic characters in the royal family."

Luo Cheng looked far away, "They are indeed tragic figures."

Li Jiaoniang said, "For the people of the royal family, those who live are not necessarily good people, and those who die are not necessarily bad people. People in that place survive by fighting. The strong stand, the weak die, thousands It has been like this for many years. It can only be said that the living are powerful people. No matter whether the living or the dead, it is impossible to judge good or bad."

Luo Cheng's eyes fell on her face, his brows and eyes stretched, "Jiao Niang, do you think so?"

Li Jiaoniang nodded, "Of course, this is God's perspective."

The history of her previous life told her that people in the royal family are the most ruthless, and only ruthless can live.

Those who die are weak and kind-hearted people.

Today's Emperor Gaozong, when he learned that someone wanted to invite the second sage back, didn't he kill those who made suggestions?
When the second sage came back, how could he be the emperor?
There are three tigers in one mountain?What are you kidding?He hasn't enjoyed being the boss enough, how can he tolerate others to grab the territory?

Of course the means must be swift and ruthless!

"God? What God?" Luo Cheng couldn't understand.

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "A god. According to the gods, how can there be a real bad guy or a good guy? It's all driven by interests. Those who care about interests will be more ruthless in their methods, and those who don't care about interests." If you are kind-hearted, you will be unlucky."

Luo Cheng felt relieved. It turns out that this is how Jiao Niang views the royal family?
"Brother Yan Mo?" Over there, Zhao Shicheng called Luo Cheng.

Li Jiaoniang asked in surprise, "Brother Luo Cheng, why are you called Yanmo?"

"That's... a name given by a relative, let's use it as a scientific name." Luo Cheng said.

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "I don't care what other people call you, I will only call you Luo Cheng."

Luo Cheng looked at her and smiled slightly, "I'll go talk to Zhao Shicheng, and I'll be with you later."

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "You don't need to accompany me, I'm too brave, you two should try to make friends." As she spoke, she winked at Luo Cheng.

What a weird look!

Luo Cheng smiled lightly and walked towards Zhao Shicheng.

……

The Chen family's wedding banquet was very grand and festive.

The dowry was carried by dozens of people.

Chen Ge is always a senior member of the court in the past, and almost all the dignified people in Yuezhou City have come.

After the wedding, Mrs. Chen invited Li Jiaoniang, Luo Cheng, and several noble wives and sons to have some tea.

Li Jiaoniang became popular because of her tea fight with Wang Yun at Shi's house. On this occasion, Mrs. Chen naturally invited her to show off.

Everyone was full of praise for the tea she ordered.

Drinking tea and talking gossip.

Mrs. Chen asked Li Jiaoniang, "How was the wedding between Mrs. Li and Mrs. Luo going? It was very lively, right?"

Li Jiaoniang raised her eyebrows, it was really interesting to ask this question.

As long as the wealthy families in Yuezhou City know her, Li Jiaoniang, who would know that she is marrying a farmer?

No matter how lively a farm wedding is, how lively can it be?
In this hall, there are still a few ladies and gentlemen from other houses sitting, Mrs. Chen, have you suddenly become confused?Why did you ask her that?
Luo Cheng's complexion immediately turned ugly, and he looked at Mrs. Chen with cold eyes.

Li Jiaoniang glanced at his face, quietly pulled his hand, and said to Mrs. Chen, "Whether the wedding is lively or not is for outsiders to see. Only the couple knows whether the marriage is happy or not. Then What's the use of being lively but not happy?"

"..."

"If that's the case, when the bride walks through the door, the groom's room has already accepted a concubine, or has a concubine to give birth to a child, or the bride and groom are not suitable for each other, just for the parents' orders, and the marriage is barely made. , such a wedding, no matter how lively and grand it is, life will be boring, even painful."

"..."

"So, I don't envy lively weddings. I only care about whether I marry someone who treats me sincerely. A grand wedding is not as good as a sincere heart."

She looked at Luo Cheng and said.

Luo Cheng stretched out his hand towards Li Jiaoniang, and held her hand tightly under the cover of his big sleeve.

His brows and eyes are full of tenderness.

After Li Jiaoniang finished speaking, everyone except Luo Cheng became thoughtful.

Li Jiaoniang said again, "Madam Chen, am I right?"

Mrs. Chen's expression suddenly became embarrassing.

Sitting in the room was an elderly woman, who had known Mrs. Chen since they were young.

She glanced at Mrs. Chen and smiled slightly.

The young people here don't know the past of Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen Ge, but she does know.

When Chen Ge was young, he had a girl in his heart, but his parents didn't agree, so they broke up and forced him to marry Mrs. Chen.

The couple seem to be in harmony and have been separated for a lifetime. When they were young, they never had a heart-to-heart talk.

It's just that we are getting old and can't make trouble anymore, so we gradually have a common topic.

But the common topic is only related to children and grandchildren, not Fengyue.

The beauty is old, and the years have passed.

Looking back, those days when the thrush was under the moon and the moon have never happened.

Old Mrs. Chen looked at Li Jiaoniang in astonishment, feeling inexplicably panicked.

Li Jiaoniang saw the expressions of everyone in the room, and sneered in her heart, look, did she mention the pain of these people?

Although the status of women in the Song Dynasty was higher than that in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, overall, the status of women was still lower than that of men.Women are still weak. If a man wants to marry three wives and four concubines, women cannot stop them.

Moreover, there is almost no free love between men and women, and it is all handled by their parents.

In particular, the marriage between the high families is also responsible for the mission of prospering the family. In the matter of marriage, the right to choose is even smaller.

No matter how luxurious the wedding is, what's the point of marrying a man whose heart is not on him, but on his concubine?
"Although the wedding between Brother Luo Cheng and I was simple, we treated each other sincerely. He didn't make me feel wronged." She gently raised her fingers, showing her slender hands.

When people saw that hand, they suddenly realized that it was not the hand of a peasant woman.

This hand is no worse than theirs.

It can be seen that Li Jiaoniang's life is not poor.

Li Jiaoniang's words were like an invisible hand, slapping everyone's ears.

The tea party broke up badly.

Seeing that it was getting late, Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang bid farewell to the old lady of the Chen family and left the Chen family.

The other guests also left one after another.

Mrs. Chen came to Mrs. Chen's study with a heavy heart.

"How? Did you say it?" Old Chen Ge turned to look at Mrs. Chen with his hands behind his back.

If Luo Cheng refused to go to Lin'an, the official family would be disappointed with him and the entire Chen family, and his children and grandchildren would not have an optimistic future.

Luo Cheng was not fascinated by wealth and splendor, so he could only find a way from Luo Cheng's wife.

Today's Chen family's grand wedding will definitely make the peasant woman very shocked and feel inferior.

Shocked, wouldn't he put pressure on Luo Cheng?Want him to ask for a piece of wealth and glory to go back?
It is very difficult for others to seek wealth and glory.

But for Luo Cheng, it came at his fingertips.

Thinking of what Li Jiaoniang said, Mrs. Chen became even more frustrated. Yes, she lived her whole life like a wooden person.

She only has wealth but no lover. This bad old man has never held her hand or hugged her once!

But he once hugged a woman to die for love!

Are you angry?Ridiculous isn't it?
"Say it." She said calmly.

"What do you think? Did you make trouble with Luo Cheng? Let me see, Mrs. Li is not stupid, she is also a money lover. Last time, she won a hundred horses from the Wang family girl. She was afraid that the Wang family would go back on her word, so she chased the Wang family all night. Today Seeing this kind of wedding, she might not be reconciled, right?"

Mrs. Chen snorted coldly, "No, she didn't mean to be reconciled at all. Instead, she mocked us."

Old Chen Ge was surprised, "Sarcasm? How do you say it?"

"She said..." Mrs. Chen didn't want to mention the bad things Li Jiaoniang said, but said, "She said she doesn't care about wealth."

Chen Gel folded his hands behind his back and snorted coldly, "It's really a stubborn couple."

The old lady Chen said with a sneer, "Since they are married by mutual admiration, they must have the same temper. In my opinion, the ideas of you and Mrs. Chu Guogong are all useless!"

The old man Chen Ge rubbed his forehead in pain, "Then we have to think of another way." He called his personal entourage, "Go, tell Mrs. Li what Mrs. Chu said."

"Yes, sir."

……

Chen's parents rode horses and walked through the alleys.

And Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang were riding in a carriage, and they were walking, chatting and shopping. When Chen's parents had already arrived at Lu's house to talk to Mrs. Lu, Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang's carriage left. Landing home, one street away.

After hearing what Chen's parents said, Mrs. Lu nodded sullenly, "Tell you Mr. Chen Ge that I understand, and I will think of other ways."

After Chen's parents left, Nurse Jing, the dowry beside Mrs. Lu, said, "Old lady, are the officials urging the old lady and the Chen family again?"

The old lady Lu said in a deep voice, "Isn't it a reminder? Another letter was delivered to the Chen residence yesterday."

Mother Jing said, "This is strange. Why do the officials care so much about Master Biao? Princess Chengyang and Duke Ning have both passed away for 20 years."

"This matter has to start from what happened two months ago."

Nanny Jing quickly asked, "Two months ago? What happened?"

The old lady Lu said, "The empress dowager suddenly suffered from wind-evil disease, and often in her dreams at night, she dreamed that Princess Chengyang was crying and wronged to her."

Nanny Jing was startled, "Empress Dowager, I'm afraid you must be scared?"

The old lady Lu sighed, "Isn't it? How many medicines have been taken and how many methods have been tried, but nothing works. The officials are so worried that they don't think about eating or drinking."

"..."

"Everyone came up with an idea to find Princess Chengyang's son and ask Princess Chengyang's son to go to Lin'an to relieve the Queen Mother from her nightmare."

"..."

"As the old saying goes, you need someone to tie the bell to untie it. So, the government sent someone to find the Chen family and the Lu family."

Mother Jing said, "Old lady, Luo Cheng refuses to go to Lin'an, I'm afraid the officials will blame the Chen family and the Lu family."

"Next year, Sanlang will go to Lin'an to take part in the hall examination. The last stage of the hall examination is the official interrogation. We haven't done what he ordered. I'm afraid that Sanlang will not pass the hall examination." Lu The old lady said worriedly.

Nanny Jing took a breath, "Old lady, you have to find a way."

"A solution? Where did you come up with it all at once? It's such a headache. How can there be such a stubborn couple? They all have the same temper!" It was the first time that Mrs. Lu met a woman who didn't like wealth and splendor.

Li Jiaoniang is so special!

……

Mammy Jing suddenly thought of an idea, "Old lady, tell me clearly, please, if he refuses to go, how about forcing him to go by some means?"

The old lady Lu sneered, "With his stubborn temper, does he eat hard? He will run far away, and you can't find it! That's even worse! He only eats soft, not tough!"

Mammy Jing was dumbfounded, "That... that's really tricky."

"Let's think of a way." Mrs. Lu sighed.

The two were talking, when Jin Xiu's voice said outside, "Old lady, Master Biao and Mrs Biao are here."

"Please come in." Mrs. Lu glanced at Nanny Jing.

Nanny Jing stepped forward and opened the door of the room.

Li Jiaoniang was very surprised, why is the door still closed in broad daylight?

In the room, Mrs. Lu immediately had a smile on her face, "Are you back? How did you play? Who did you meet?"

Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang entered the room, and they greeted Mrs. Lu together.

Li Jiaoniang said, "It's lively, but it's a bit noisy."

What a childish thing to say.

The old lady Lu said with a smile, "This is a wedding, only once in a lifetime, can it not be lively? It's noisy, but it's festive."

Li Jiaoniang casually said, "Maybe." The tone of the old lady Lu was the same as that of the old lady of the Chen family. Li Jiaoniang didn't want to continue this topic, so she said what the old lady of the Chen family had said in reply.

"Old lady Chen said that she will invite her aunt and grandmother to Chen's mansion for a supplementary banquet some other day."

"They're interested." Mrs. Lu smiled slightly.

After talking for a while, Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang were about to leave when Jin Xiu outside the house said loudly, "Old lady, someone from the Huzhou Tang family is here."

The smile on Old Madam Lu's face disappeared in an instant.

Mammy Jing, who was standing beside her, was even more frightened and lost her mind.

She hurried to see Mrs. Lu.

Old lady Lu closed her eyes in anger.

Li Jiaoniang glanced at Luo Cheng, and Luo Cheng understood that she wanted to watch the fun.

He stood up, walked outside and asked, "Jin Xiu, who is here from the Tang family?"

Jin Xiu said, "It's the second brother of the third young lady, and he came with two followers."

Li Jiaoniang pursed her lips and smiled, it was only the third day since the incident happened.

Moreover, the journey from Huzhou to Yuezhou is not far away, and they arrived so quickly, it can be seen that the Tang family is in a hurry.

Only one person came today, and the follow-up people will definitely come tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
