Twin Brocade

Chapter 253
Gong Wenjue turned to Si Lansheng, cupped his hands and said, "Eldest madam, please send a message to eldest daughter: My intention remains unchanged, I will definitely come to propose marriage after the first month."

"Brother Jue," Si Lansheng said emotionally, "I understand what you mean, but this matter still requires the consent of the elders of Gong's family."

Gong Wenjue said with confidence: "Madam, please don't worry, I will not do anything I am not sure about."

"Mother, the child will clarify this matter with his grandfather. My wife can only be her." Gong Wenjue said firmly, "No matter what happens, this point will not change."

"Mother, please help the child and fulfill my heart."

Mrs. Gong sighed for a long time and said: "Forget it, I can't control your affairs, as long as you can convince your grandfather. However, you must know that if you don't succeed, you will only waste time in vain."

He can afford it, but Fang Jinhui can't.

"I will not let her down." Gong Wenjue was full of confidence.

With Gong Wenjue's guarantee, Si Lansheng did not feel relieved.She went back to Fang's house with a heavy heart, not thinking about it.

She knew that getting married was the best of the two surnames, so it was the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.Regarding marriage, the children have very little autonomy.Gong Wen felt that Fang Jinhui would not marry, but could he withstand the pressure from the family?

In order to preserve his reputation, he even postponed Chunwei for another three years.For such a big matter, what is the Gong family's plan? Could it be that he can do it alone?
Fang Shuyu went down the yamen, saw her standing in front of the window in a daze, and asked with concern: "I went to Gong's house today, what happened?"

Si Lansheng nodded: "Mrs. Gong is very kind to me, and she doesn't care about me at all. But what she means is very clear, this marriage will definitely not work out."

"Don't worry." Fang Shuyu walked behind her, hugged her shoulders, and said: "The imperial physician said that your headache is caused by overthinking. If the Gong family is not successful, there are other families."

"In such a big capital city, I don't believe that there is no young hero who can match Hui girl!"

Si Lansheng rubbed the center of his brows, told what happened after Gong Wenjue woke up, and said, "His heart is sincere. If Hui girl can marry him, I won't have to worry about it for the rest of my life!"

"However, I am very worried about gains and losses." She frowned, and said, "If brother Jue can't convince his grandfather, our time will also be delayed, what should we do?"

"After all, before the Gong family came to propose marriage, this matter was full of variables. There are still more than ten days until the first lunar month, and these ten days are precious to Hui'er."

"But I can't ignore his wholeheartedness. Right now, it seems that there is no one who is more suitable for Hui'er than him. If I look for another candidate, won't I hurt his sincerity?" Besides, I can find someone in a hurry. Candidates must not go well in everything.

What Si Lansheng was struggling with was precisely because of this.

For this, Fang Shuyu didn't have any good solution.He had already arranged for people to go out to check on the people who had been in contact with Fang Jinpei, and also sent money to the mistresses in Sansheng Nunnery, asking them to come and question Fang Jinpei.

But these things take time to bear fruit.Fang Jinhui's marriage is imminent.

"Since it's hard for us to make a choice, why don't we tell girl Hui to make her own decision." Fang Shuyu said: "This is related to her future life, she has the right to know."

Si Lansheng hesitated for a moment, only to feel a throbbing pain in his forehead.She wants to protect her daughter, but now she can't even maintain her marriage, and she has to put this pressure on her immature shoulders, how can she bear it?
Sensing her discomfort, Fang Shuyu hurriedly supported her to sit on the chair, pressed her temples and Yintang with both hands, and said: "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and we parents can't worry about it."

"When the children grow up, they will have their own opinions. Maybe we are all just worrying in vain."

"If you know that your headache has happened again, Hui girl doesn't know how she will blame herself. You also know that her temperament is up to you, and she likes to take responsibility for everything."

"Okay, okay." Si Lansheng tried to smile with pain: "I've got an old problem, and I've provoked you to talk a lot."

"Don't worry about this matter, leave it to me." Fang Shuyu held her hand and said, "I'll have someone come in to serve you and rest first, I'll go to the study."

Si Lansheng held his hand behind his back and looked at him with full eyes.

"Don't worry, I won't harm my daughter." Fang Shuyu assured her, and Si Lansheng let her go.

When they arrived at the study, Fang Shuyu wrote a letter and ordered: "Call Steward Wan to come in."

"I have seen the master." Wan Butler stood respectfully with his hands down, waiting for his order.

"You send two competent people to leave today, and deliver this letter to Miracle Doctor Su in Changzhou." Fang Shuyu said, "Go to the cashier to pay 100 taels of silver as a foothold for Miracle Doctor Su to go to Beijing."

"This time, we must invite Miracle Physician Su to Beijing." He emphasized in a deep voice: "If you can't invite them, then they will wait in Changzhou. After February, let them leave."

He made up his mind that Si Lansheng's illness could not be dragged on like this.Butler Wan quickly responded, and said, "Don't worry, master, it will be done."

Steward Wan is the son of the Fang family. When he was young, he was Fang Mu's long-term follower. Because of his loyalty and reliability, he became the housekeeper of Fang's house.This is something Fang Shuyu personally explained, how dare he ignore it.

After Wan Guanjia retreated, Fang Shuyu ordered: "Go and ask the eldest girl to come over, I have something to say to her."

Now Fang Jinhui has returned from school, and is doing homework assigned by his teacher in his room.Qiaohua laid out the rice paper for her and pressed it with a paperweight.She was holding the pen in her hand, but she couldn't put it down for a while, until the ink dripped on the rice paper, she suddenly woke up.

"Girl, why don't you rest for a while?" Qiao Hua looked at her worriedly, and persuaded: "The madam ordered to leave a bowl of bird's nest porridge for you, and the servant girl will bring it to you."

Fang Jinhui smiled self-deprecatingly, and put down the pen in his hand.She is already very restrained, but how can she control the thoughts in her head?For a whole day, she looked the same as usual, but she didn't know what the teacher said, and she didn't know what to draw with the pen.

"Miss, the master invites you to the study, he has something to tell you."

Fang Jinhui was startled, knowing that the result had come out.But, why didn't the mother call me, but the father instead?Could it be that the mother has a headache again?

Seeing her expression, Qiao Hua explained: "Miss, don't think too much. No one in this house knows that the master loves you the most, Miss."

"The servant girl has very little knowledge, and knows that in other people's homes, men rarely interfere with the affairs of the rear house. It is a great blessing for the girl to have a father like the master."
