Chapter 373 Desperate to Marry
In the evening, Chen Yuqing didn't eat dinner and just lay on the bed wiping her tears. No matter how hard Chen Shiying and Jiang tried to persuade her, they just cried. She didn't like He Linsheng very much. She had only met him once and had a good impression. She thought that she was not young anymore and wanted to settle the marriage as soon as possible.
However, when both parents intended to get them engaged, their biological sister showed up. How could she be so shameless!
She also knew that Chen Yuhui's trouble would make the Chen family girl's reputation even worse. This time, not only all the ladies from Dingzhou Prefecture were present, but also people from the capital and provincial capitals came. My marriage would become even more difficult in the future. I am already fifteen years old, and this year seems like a year. What should I do in the future?
At this time, the servants came to report that the eldest aunt, grandma, and the eldest sister of the Chu family were here.
When Chen Shiying heard this, he quickly got up and went to the front yard. Jiang ordered his servants to bring his eldest aunt and eldest sister directly here.
Jiang said, "Qing'er, hurry up and wash your face. Your eldest sister is coming home so late. There must be something wrong."
Chen Yuqing was too embarrassed to let people see her crying like this over the wedding, so she had to get up and let the maid clean her face and put on makeup. But the eyes are still red and swollen, and even makeup cannot cover them.
As soon as they finished packing, Chen Afu came with Chu Hanyan in hand.
Mrs. Jiang walked out the door, took two steps forward, took Chen Afu's hand, and said, "It's so late in the day, and I'm asking you to run to your mother's house with a big belly. Be careful, don't fall."
Chen Afu smiled and said, "My uncle has something to talk to my father about. I originally wanted to invite you to my house for a day, but I didn't know that this happened today."
Chen Yuxia was also invited over, and she took Chu Hanyan to the West Room to play. Chen Afu took Jiang and Chen Yuqing to the east room, which was also Chen Yuqing's bedroom.
Chen Afu took Chen Yuqing's hand and smiled and said, "Third sister, you have to believe that people are doing it and God is watching. Huh, second sister thought she had grabbed the treasure. She will find out when she marries to the He family."
Jiang asked, "What does Fu'er mean?"
Chen Afu helped Jiang sit down on the chair, and then sat on the beauty's couch with Chen Yuqing, and then said, "I heard from my uncle that Mr. He has a bad character and temper. I haven't had time to tell my mother. My sister can’t wait to get married..."
Then, they told He Linsheng that he was cruel and cruel, often beating soldiers and girls, and that he already had several girls who had intercourse with him. People who knew his character did not dare to say that their daughter would marry him. Chen Afu didn't say that Vice Commander He was Wang Guo's uncle and the second prince. Women didn't care about politics. Let Chu Lingxuan tell Chen Shiying about these matters.
Jiang and Chen Yuqing looked at each other. Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Looking at his gentle appearance, he turns out to be that kind of person." He added, "It's just that Hui Yatou did that shameless thing. It also ruined Girl Qing’s reputation.”
Chen Afu patted Chen Yuqing's hand and said, "Marriage of a thousand miles depends on a thread. Maybe the fate of the third sister has not come yet. If it comes, we will come together no matter how far apart we are. I will write a letter to my third aunt tomorrow to ask her Help my sister search for a suitable young man in Beijing."
Mrs. Chu San has a wide network of contacts. If she is willing to help, she can really find a good young man.
Chen Yuqing blushed with embarrassment, twisted her body and said, "Sister, what are you talking about? I'm ignoring you."
Jiang smiled and said, "That's a good relationship, thank you Fu'er."
She also asked her natal family to look for good families in the capital. Her natal sister-in-law and younger siblings also mentioned a few, but she didn't like them.
Several people scolded Chen Yuhui for a while, and Chen Shiying sent someone to say that Chu Lingxuan asked Chen Afu and his daughter to go to the front yard, and it was time for them to leave.
After Chen Afu and others left, Chen Shiying thought about what Chu Lingxuan said and felt that Chen Yuhui could not marry her. With a person like He Er, the second daughter would really suffer if she married him. Then he went to Chen Yuhui's yard again.
He said to Chen Yuhui earnestly, "I heard that He Er has a bad temper. He often beats people and women. He even beat a girl to death. Dad doesn't want you to marry and suffer in the He family. Besides, the He family will not be happy if you marry like this. . Let's do this. If the He family comes to ask for marriage tomorrow, we will refuse, and it will go as planned. Although your reputation has been ruined by that boy, dad will ask someone to find a match for you in a distant place. You can marry there. People won’t know these things about you.”
Chen Yuhui said angrily, "Father, what do you mean? Do you still want to leave this good marriage to your third sister? Am I not your biological daughter?"
Chen Shiying was so angry that he vomited blood and said angrily, "What are you talking about! He Er is wrong, why would I leave you with my third sister? Dad is doing this for your own good. If you don't live up to your expectations, I will support you." My beloved daughter, I don’t want you to suffer in the future.”
Chen Yuhui didn't believe what he said and said, "My mother must have asked my father to say these words. She hates my aunt and wants to marry me to the worst family. Even if the He family can't marry the third sister, she You don't want me to get married either." He said fiercely, "If dad wants to stop this good marriage again, just wait until the body is collected." Then he entered the bedroom.
Chen Shiying shook his head in disappointment and said sadly, "Hui'er, dad has said everything that needs to be said, so you can take care of yourself. If you think about it again today, if you regret it, you can tell dad tomorrow morning. It's still too late."
Chen Afu and the others returned to Chu Mansion very late.
When I arrived at the main courtyard, I saw the upper room was brightly lit. Hearing their movements, Dabao ran out quickly and shouted, "Mother, father, sister, why did you come back? Brother Xuan and I waited until now."
As soon as the words fell, little Li Xuan also ran out, pouting and saying, "With my brother, I'm waiting for my aunt, uncle, and sister."
Chen Afu smiled and held one of them in each hand, saying, "Oh, two little darlings, it's so late, why don't you go back to your room to rest?"
Mother Wei and Mother Luo laughed, "I called them many times, but the two brothers didn't want to, and they cried when they were pulled."
Dabao hurriedly said shyly, "I didn't cry, it was my brother Xuan who cried."
Li Xuan immediately said, "Well, Xuan Xuan cried because he missed his aunt."
Li Xuan's personality has become much more cheerful. Although he is weaker in expression than his actual age, he can still express the most basic ideas.
Chen Afu sat on the kang and intimated with the two of them for a while before letting the children go back to their respective yards.
Chen Afu felt very tired and lay down on the bed after washing. If Chu Lingxuan was not there, she could go to the space to relax, but now she can only relax in bed.
Chu Lingxuan said while lying beside her, "Father-in-law really loves his daughter. He listened to He Er's character and would rather let your second sister marry far away than marry into the He family."
Chen Afu said, "If my father does this, Chen Yuhui will not appreciate it. She will think that my father and mother are going to stop her from having a good thing together, and she will try her best to marry into the He family."
Chu Lingxuan sneered, "If she does this, she is really courting death."
