Fortunate Life of the Rural Beauty

Chapter 219 The son-in-law of a wealthy family

Mrs. Li, who had been lonely for a long time, was also happy to see such a talkative old lady who was also the prefect of Dingzhou. After a while, the two of them were so good that they talked about everything. They even left old Mrs. Chen to have a meal in her room in the evening.

The old lady always thought that her eldest granddaughter was handsome and filial, and she wanted to find a high-ranking son-in-law for her. When the old lady came to Dingzhou Mansion and heard about Chu Lingxuan, she fell in love with him and secretly planned to find an opportunity to ask someone to help pull the strings.

In Mrs. Chen's opinion, no matter how well-born Chu Lingxuan was, she would still be a continuation of her marriage. She was the prefect's "divine daughter" and her status was enough to match him. What's more, if his son has real abilities, he will definitely be promoted to a bigger official in a few years. The reason why Chen Yuhui was said to be her legitimate daughter was that the old lady wanted to find a way to force the Jiang family to record Hui Yatou in her name when she went back.

Mr. Chu works in Dingzhou, and his granddaughter will stay in Dingzhou after marriage. Although the princess mother-in-law is powerful, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so she can't control her even if she wants to. I will teach my granddaughter again. If she meets the princess' mother-in-law, I will find a way to serve her well. The eldest granddaughter is very lovable and has a good way of coaxing people. In this way, not only does my beloved granddaughter marry into a good family, but I also have a stronger backer. In the future, I no longer have to worry about Jiang's family because of fear of Jiang's natal family...

Old Mrs. Chen had a plan in her mind, so she sent Aunt Green and the old lady out, and smiled at Mrs. Li, "A few days ago, General Lu was marrying his daughter in the military mansion. In the Lu mansion, I took a look at Mr. Chu from a distance, oh, She is so handsome and powerful... My eldest granddaughter Hui'er looks most like his father. She is unparalleledly handsome, gentle and virtuous. She can also recite poetry and paint. She will be pregnant in the second half of this year. I have always loved such a good child. I want to find a good future life for her..."

It was almost impossible to say that her granddaughter and Chu Lingxuan were made for each other.

Li was a little unhappy when she first praised Chu Lingxuan, but after listening to her subsequent words, she realized that she had that meaning.

Ms. Li also knew that Chen Shiying was once a prostitute, and she was the most handsome. If his daughter resembles him enough, her beauty and talents will definitely be of the highest quality.

If it turned out that way, Mrs. Li would never dare to have the idea of ​​Chu Lingxuan's marriage. The old Marquis allowed her to be greedy for some family wealth, but she was absolutely not allowed to interfere with Chu Lingxuan's marriage. Besides, she didn't have the ability to know those high-ranking ladies who were the same as the Chu family.

But since the old man returned to Beijing from Tangyuan after the New Year, his tone has softened and he seems to be very anxious. It is said that the reason why Chu Lingxuan has not continued his marriage even at such an old age is because he cannot succeed at a high level or at a low level. Noble ladies who match his status are unwilling to marry him, and girls who want to marry him have shortcomings of one kind or another. Now Chu Lingxuan is twenty-four years old. Even if the conditions are lowered, he must be allowed to get married and have a son as soon as possible. He also said that as long as the girl herself is good, it doesn't matter if her family background is poor...

Although the direct daughter of the Chen family was of low birth, she was good-looking and talented, and Mr. Chen was the prefect of Dingzhou Prefecture, which just met the conditions of the old Marquis. What man doesn't like beauty? Chen Shiying's daughter must be beautiful, and Chu Lingxuan will definitely take a liking to her.

If someone's daughter marries into a marquis's mansion, Princess Rongzhao will definitely take her to the princess's mansion to torment her without any scruples. It's best to torture her until she can't give birth to a son. The princess has been married to her uncle for so many years but has not given birth to a son or a daughter. She is now thirty-one and cannot give birth to a child at such an old age. That way, my son will have a chance...

Mrs. Li made up her mind and laughed continuously, "My eldest nephew is already twenty-four this year, but he hasn't gotten married yet. My father-in-law is very anxious and wants him to find a good girl as soon as possible. Mr. Chen, I have long listened. As I said, she is handsome and talented, and Mrs. Chen is so virtuous and courteous. Your eldest girl will definitely be right. I will tell my father-in-law when I get home..."

Mrs. Li was so happy that Mrs. Chen was so happy. He also hinted that if Mr. Li can handle this matter, he will be "grateful" to her. Of course, this heavy "gratitude" will make Tang syndrome come out. Mrs. Li was even more happy after hearing this. The two sent people holding hands and talking, and they were a little closer than before. It seemed that the two houses of Chu and Chen had become in-laws.

After the old lady returned home, she quickly called Tang and Chen Yuhui and told them about the matter.

The mother and daughter were crazy with joy. They had long heard that Mr. Chu was from a noble family, that he was young, promising and handsome. Chen Yuhui blushed with embarrassment, twisted her handkerchief, acted coquettishly, and stamped her feet, making the old lady and Mrs. Tang laugh.

However, when the old lady asked Jiang to record Chen Yuhui in her name, Jiang refused. Of course, she couldn't openly disobey her mother-in-law. She just laughed and said that her words didn't count and her husband's consent was required.

Chen Shiying happened to be on business in a subordinate county in the past few days. The old lady carefully did not tell her that she had planned a good marriage for her eldest granddaughter, for fear of being plotted by the Jiang family to snatch her away.

When Chen Shiying returned home four days later, the old lady went to tell him about the marriage with the Chu family. She also said that if the eldest granddaughter was recorded in the name of the Jiang family, Chen Yuhui would be the legitimate daughter, and she was not deceived.

After hearing this, Chen Shiying was very angry and said, "Mom, you are stupid, you are not allowed to talk nonsense about what kind of family the Chu family is. Hui'er is my concubine. Even if she is recorded in the name of the Jiang family, she cannot be a real legitimate daughter." Female. The Chu family is the residence of the Marquis of Yong'an. Chu Lingxuan is a third-rank general and the son of the Marquis of Yong'an, and he acts ruthlessly. His father, the Marquis of Chu, married a princess and was also a general of the Zhu Kingdom. The third master of the Chu family is even more outrageous. , so much trusted by the emperor that he was named the first-level magistrate of the Central Military Governor's Mansion just after he came back from the border. What's more, Hui'er's talent and appearance are far inferior to Master Chu. How can Master Chu be so high up on us? Mother. How dare you pretend to be a concubine! You want to kill your son and our entire family."

The old lady didn't want to hear it anymore and said angrily, "Just kidding, Hui'er looks the most like you. How could he be so different from Mr. Chu..."

Hui'er is the most like him!

Chen Shiying was extremely helpless when he saw that my mother was telling lies as if they were true. Without waiting for his mother to finish her words, she hurriedly went to the General's Mansion to apologize. To his surprise, Chu Lingxuan was not that angry and said that he would not take the woman's unintentional words to heart. Besides, it was not Chen’s mother’s fault alone, her second aunt Li’s fault was also at fault. She had already been severely reprimanded by the old Marquis...

When Chen Shiying thought of these bad things, he was so angry that he vomited blood and wished he could be thousands of miles away from the old Chu family.

He was still some distance away from Tangyuan when he saw Chu Lingxuan waiting for him at the gate of Tangyuan.

Under the spring sun, the Chu Lingxuan Yushu stands in the wind, majestic and so cold that it is hard to fathom. Coupled with such a high background, even if his family was in trouble due to Princess Rongzhao, his ordinary-looking daughter would not be able to care about her.

Chen Afu's delicate and picturesque face suddenly appeared in front of Chen Shiying's eyes. This girl was beautiful and intelligent. In terms of looks, she and Chu Lingxuan are the golden boys and girls.

This weird idea even shocked Chen Shiying himself.
