Chapter 0029 – Clouds and Clay (1 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCCChen Zhirou nodded her head as if she didn’t care, and laughed: “It’s all my fault for coming here uninvited, and adding to the chaos. Zi An, today you are the main character, don’t just stand there, quickly come to auntie.”
The crowd then remembered that they were at Chen Zian’s coronation ceremony, and again there was a chorus of congratulations.
Chen Zian hurriedly walked over to Chen Zhirou’s side, and the crowd dispersed and exchanged glasses.
“Running so fast, you’re actually sweating all this.”
Chen Zhirou gently wiped the sweat on the corner of Chen Zian’s forehead and asked: “Now that I have a closer look, I feel more and more that the adult Zian is even more handsome and talented. But this kind of handsome Xiucai Lang, I do not know which noble girl to be worthy of. Now you have a favorite woman, or have a marriage proposal?”
Chen Zi’an quickly lowered his head, “Auntie is flattering. Mother is already helping to see each other, Zi’an believes that the fate of marriage is determined by heaven, and everything is in accordance with the words of his parents.”
On the second seat, the smile on Xu Fengjiao’s face slightly solidified, and in her heart, she secretly slandered: she talks a good game, but in the end, she still wants the daughter of the family? Where do I find you a second Jiangzhou Xie!
Xu slightly adjusted his expression, put out a suitable difficult to: “back to the side consort lady, Zi An this kind of picky, I do mother, the affinity naturally want to plan by heart. Just our Zi Sheng has been fortunate to marry the Xie family first daughter, can not condescend to the little one, this look around is always not satisfied enough, so Zi An’s marriage has been delayed.”
Hearing her mother-in-law’s words, Xie Jialong’s face showed an appropriate shyness, but Chen Zisheng turned his back and secretly sneered.
Chen Zhirou listening but secretly shocked, I did not expect this Chen Zi’an actually ambition is not small, even want the daughter of the family, no wonder there are twenty still no reliable relatives.
Since the founding of Yan, it has been much more tolerant of merchants, and has long since banned them from participating in the imperial examinations, unlike the previous dynasty. However, the status of the scholar-peasant-industry-industry has not been shaken, and the status of merchants is still not comparable to that of peasants and artisans, not to mention scholars and princes and nobles.
Therefore, the family nobles are reluctant to marry their daughters to merchant families, Jiangzhou Xie’s is the Chen County Xie’s side branch in the side branch, has long been the family cold, even Master Xie’s money to buy the official is their Chen family out of the money.
But even so, their Chen family’s marriage to Xie Jialong is already considered a high climb.
Although Chen Zi’an has the merit of a Xiucai, he is asking for a family with an official position in the imperial court, which is much more difficult than the Jiangzhou Xie family.
Chen Zhirou was only slightly stunned, then smiled again and said, “I should, this consort will also keep an eye out for Zi An. First Su Wangfei’s mother’s clan has been traveling quite a bit with the royal family lately, so perhaps there will be some suitable girls in the clan.”
The first Su Wangfei from Langya Wang family, that is the family of the family, I do not know how many dynasties out of Zaifu, Queen, and where is the Chen family to climb up? The people only think that the side consort is polite, a few words and turn the topic elsewhere.
The smile on Chen Zhirou’s face did not diminish, but behind her, Mama Jin frowned slightly, and some color came out of her eyes.
Because of Chen Zhirou’s visit, Chen master brought out the treasured wine, the feast continued for a long time, the guests were happy. Seeing that the night is already late, the side consort and has resigned to go back to the house, the crowd had to disperse, Chen family master and servant also have to get up to see off the guests.
Xiang Capsicum looked at Chen Zi’an who was welcoming him not far away, the man’s handsome side face exuding a warm luster under the light of the candle flame.
She knew she had dodged another one. But she didn’t know when the next one would come, and whether she would be able to avoid it.
However, he has already reached the crown, and is about to discuss marriage, the second youngest grandmother must be a great lady who is not inferior to Xie Jialong.
When the second young mistress enters the house, the second young master won’t think of her, a lowly person, and won’t want to have anything to do with her anymore, right?
It should have been, between him and her, it would have been like a cloud.
Xiang Capsicum thought this way, hoping that the day would come soon, and hoping that it would be late.
Chen Zian’s side had just sent Su Guanqing and the others away when he noticed the sight behind him, and when he turned around, he saw that Chen Zisheng had already stepped forward to half embrace Xiang Capsicum in his arms, and leaned on her shoulder to drunkenly say, “Bao’er, what a good boy today, go back to your room, and wait for this prince, the prince to reward you!”
After saying that, Chen Zisheng burped, and an air of sour rot filled the surroundings.
