Chapter 1236 Xiao's envy
The main room was very lively, except for Xiang Weinan, who was standing beside Xiao Shi, who frowned, no one noticed that something was wrong with her face.
Mr. Xiao wanted to go, but it was obviously inappropriate now. The husband is here, so she can only bite the bullet and continue to stay, listening to this lively meeting between the in-laws.
The Meng family came to propose a marriage, and it was already agreed. Although today is Meng Pei's first time to come to Lu's family, he is a talkative and forthright person, and there is no difference between chatting with the old lady.
The matchmaker on the side of felt that he was a little out of touch.
Not long after, Lu Erbai and Ruan Shi came back.
The two families chatted even more, and the whole hall was full of laughter.
Xiao Shi became more and more restless, but Wei Nan accompanied him this time as a matchmaker between the two parties.
Seeing that it was getting late, the Meng family stayed for dinner.
Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Gu looked at each other, smiled wryly, and followed them to the flower hall.
Xiao Shi was always silent at the dinner table, but occasionally looked at Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng.
She recalled that when she first proposed marriage to Wei Nan at the Xiao family, she hid behind a screen and peeked, because she was going to marry the man she liked, and she was very happy and shy at the time.
However, Xiang Weinan, who came with the official media, didn't look happy at all.
He is very polite, and has complete etiquette. He has everything he should have, and he has followed the steps and customs one by one. He can't find the slightest mistake, but...not very happy.
At that time, Mrs. Xiao thought, it doesn't matter, she knew that the imperial edict for marriage was very sudden, and most people would not be happy when it happened. When the two get married in the future, he will know that he is good, and the two will be harmonious and beautiful.
However, until now, there has been no progress between them.
Looking at Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng again, she thought, men and women who are truly in love are like this when they propose marriage, right?
"If you're done eating, go back first, I still have something to do here."
A low voice suddenly came from his ear, Xiao Shi suddenly recovered, only to realize that Xiang Weinan was talking to him.
She was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."
Mrs Xiao actually had no appetite, so she went to say goodbye to Shu Yu after dinner.
Shu Yu nodded and asked someone to send her out.
When he arrived at the door of Lu's house, Mr. Xiao couldn't help but turn his head, and the lively chatter and laughter inside seemed to be echoing in his ears.
Mamma Gu sighed, "Miss, it seems that we really misunderstood Lu Xiangjun."
Mr. Xiao grabbed the veil fiercely, turned his head sharply, his eyes became sharp, "Go, go back to the county office, and find Mrs. Ren."
Ren?
Mamma Gu came over quickly, "Miss, what you mean is that the rumor about Lord Lu Xiangjun that we accidentally heard was not an accident? Is it the Ren family?"
Ren was the concubine who was brought to Jiangyuan County to Weinan.
When they first came to Jiangyuan County, they didn't know the situation here, so they paid special attention when they overheard Mr. Ren mention Lu Xiangjun.
At the beginning, Mrs. Ren was talking to the little maid in the room, and suddenly mentioned Xiang Weinan's unusual attitude towards Shu Yu, suspecting that Shu Yu might become the future wife.
Mrs. Xiao had just passed by the door at that time. She was not impulsive, but when she heard about Xiang Weinan, it was inevitable that she would be a little concerned. After listening to Ren's words, she went to check, and she really found that Xiang Weinan did something different to Shu Yu.
