[074] A grand scene

Wen Renying has been praised since she was a child, and many people follow her. If she talks to her properly, she may not care about this title. After all, she didn't come here for this before she got married, but Hua Baichen treated her

As if he were a thief, like a robber. Even so, she still insisted on it!

This became one of the irreconcilable conflicts between her and Hua Baichen.

Hua Baichen was very respectful to his widowed sister-in-law, and treated his nephew more than his own son. He knew that he had a deep relationship with his brother who died young, but if he didn't know, he thought he had an ulterior relationship with his widowed sister-in-law.

Wen Renying naturally saw what was going on. However, even so, which woman could bear her husband treating other women far better than herself?

She had a bad relationship with that woman, and Hua Baichen always stood by her, saying that she was petty, intolerant, and even bullied orphans and widowed mothers. In short, it was her fault at all times, just because she didn't

If a man has no father, the mother and son will never go wrong! Even thinking about it now, Wen Renying wants to kill that rotten Hua Baichen.

Wen Renying didn't know what became of the Pingjin Hou Mansion after her death. However, no matter how hard Hua Baichen tried, he could not change the fact that the Pingjin Hou Mansion was in decline. His good nephew was neither a father nor an ancestor.

There is such a mother who treats him harshly and looks weak and has no independent opinions. Wants the Pingjin Marquis Mansion to regain its glory? What a dream!

The Pingjin Marquis Mansion is doing well now. Hua Baichen is indulging in his romance and living a very uncomfortable life. Moreover, what is different from his previous life is that now Hua Baichen likes Li Ruoshui, he loves her to death.

In Wen Renying's eyes, this was not surprising at all. Hua Baichen liked that tune from beginning to end.

In his previous life, Hua Baichen disliked her, saying that she came from a scholarly family, but she wanted knowledge but not knowledge, and talent but not talent. He also asked whether she was brought back from outside, otherwise she didn't get half of her fourth brother's bookishness.

Wen Renying tore the flower in her hand into pieces, petal by petal, tilted her chin slightly, her eyes were cold. In Hua Baichen's heart, she probably wished she could break off the engagement so that she could marry the girl she longed for home.

However, Li Ruoshui has the title of the most talented woman and the most beautiful woman, and the people who stare at her include even princes, sons of princes, and grandsons of pavilions. If you just count them with your fingers, you may not be able to count them with both hands.

Not to mention those with lower family backgrounds.

Among these people, Hua Baichen really doesn't have any advantage. After all, even if I am powerful, the throne is clearly his elder brother's, and he himself has no special skills. The elders of the Li family will definitely look down on such a person.

Go ahead, marry the most outstanding girl to such a person who is destined to have no future prospects. Wouldn't it be a big loss?

As for whether Li Ruoshui would like him, it's hard to say. After all, Li Ruoshui, hehe...

She wanted to break off the engagement, and Hua Baichen also wanted to break off the engagement. They "hit it off", so there was no problem. However, how could Wen Renying be willing to let Hua Baichen go so easily? She would let the world know that from beginning to end

, she and Wen Renying were both innocent. It was Hua Baichen who was unlucky and had a bad character. He wanted Pingjin Marquis Mansion to apologize to Wen Renying for breaking up the engagement.

This is not enough. In the future, he will be ruined and despised by the world. The reason why he does not do it all at once is because his reputation is too bad. When others mention him as an unmarried couple, it is inevitable.

She will also think of her, which is not a good thing for her, so she can only completely distance herself from the relationship and then slowly pursue it.

She won't make it easy for Hua Baichen!

But this is only secondary in the end. It’s so easy to have a chance to do it again. How could Wen Renying be so obsessed with this kind of thing? Cheng Wenzheng’s side is more important. After all, if his life is worse than in the previous life, what will happen?

What's the point?

Cheng Wenzheng is still the top pick, but even if there is a change, Wen Renying will not find it strange. Presumably Mr. Li, the governor of Kaiping, has already had his thoughts on it. Of course, he is definitely not the only one who has his thoughts.

Originally, the person who married Cheng Wenzheng was a concubine of Mr. Li. However, because this girl was raised by the old lady above, her status was different. Cheng Wenzheng had no roots and was really from a poor family. Therefore,

Even if the other party is a concubine, she is still the daughter of a third-grade official. He is still the one who has reached the top. Have you not seen how many top picks and second picks are famous for a while, but later they are ignored by everyone and do not cause any waves?

However, knowing Cheng Wenzheng's future achievements, Wen Renying felt that the current Miss Li was not worthy of him.

Cheng Wenzheng will return to his hometown to worship his ancestors after the imperial examination. At that time, his mother will follow him to Kaiping. The marriage will not be finalized until then. Even if he is not too young, the marriage may be relatively hasty, but at least after the engagement,

You have to wait three months, so there is still almost half a year left to operate.

Of course, it is impossible to figure out the matter until that time. The sooner the better, and it would be better if Cheng Wenzheng did not get engaged to anyone else, but directly engaged her, so in the end, he still had to figure it out first.

It was the engagement that fell on her head.

However, in a few days, Lu Deyuan and Wen Renyan came to Wenren's house again. Compared with the last time, this time they carried a lot of gifts on the carriage, most of which were for the girl's family.

They all looked very good, and Xiaocao wanted to refuse them, but the couple said that their elders had prepared them and they must accept them.

Xiaocao continued to enrich her pocket. According to her mother, even if she didn't use it, she kept it at the bottom of the box. Those were her things. If she couldn't resist the Han family, she could only accept them. However, there were a few relatively expensive medicinal materials inside.

, such as wild ginseng, fleece-flower root, donkey-hide gelatin, etc., Xiaocao is happy to use them. As a doctor, the last thing that is not too much is medicinal materials.

Because of Wen Renying's engagement with Hua Baichen, Wen Renying's big house was preparing for a banquet.

The last time I heard that someone held a banquet, Mrs. Pingjin Hou asked her daughter-in-law to come instead of her because she was ill. Xiaocao had seen the prince's wife. She was an orthodox lady. Her clothes, words, deeds, and even her smile were perfect.

, and for this kind of person, it is basically difficult to grasp the true temperament. Simply, the other party has nothing to do with Xiaocao, so there is no need to explore.

They only exchanged a few words at that time, and she did not stay with their young girl and daughter-in-law. From the beginning to the end, Wen Renying did not have any direct contact with her. Wen Renying was also worried about facing this "

The "former enemy" will lose control and show emotions that he shouldn't have.

As for Hua Baichen, he also went to Wen Ren's house, but Xiaocao never got to see him because he was his foreign husband.

The Han family is quite satisfied with Hua Baichen. Although he doesn't have any great abilities, he doesn't have any serious problems. Although he likes romantic things, he is not lustful and has a good temper. He relies on his biological father to follow him.

Brother, you don’t have to worry about anything in your life. Mr. Han also wanted his pampered daughter to have an easy life, so he chose such a son-in-law, which was also a good intention.

When Mr. Han was talking to Xiaocao, Wen Renying was sitting on the side with her head lowered, looking unusually well-behaved and quiet.

Others thought she was shy, but Wen Renying felt very calm. She also knew that her mother was worried about her. Just like her fourth brother, she chose her marriage over and over again. She never doubted her mother's vision.

, It’s just that her mother’s ability to “predict” was a bit poor. Her fourth sister-in-law in her previous life was not Meng Xinlan. Well, she was another person who received favors from her fourth sister. Earth-shaking changes have taken place in the Pingjin Hou Mansion in just a few years.

Didn't her mother lament the change more than once later on? She didn't expect it.

Speaking of how bad their life was, the one who suffered the most was their own mother.

Because of the birthday celebration, the banquet actually started on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, but it was usually for people from the main clan of the Pingjin Marquis Mansion, and the dinner on the ninth day of the Lunar New Year was the main banquet. Those who went to the Pingjin Marquis Mansion in the afternoon were all female relatives and

The male guest is fine.

Wenren Taibo and Wenren Yang, one was in the Ministry of Rites and the other was in the Imperial Academy, so the matter of giving gifts fell to Wenren Yang.

Because some places of Emperor Xuanren were very loose, it was possible to go home in the afternoon. Today, the Marquis of Pingjin was specially given a day off, but no one who needed him to greet him personally would come to the door at this time. Therefore, in

Welcoming guests at the main entrance were the Prince of Pingjin, Hua Baichen, and the concubines and nephews of Pingjin.

When they saw Wen Renyang, the others immediately pushed Hua Baichen out. This was his future brother-in-law. He was one of the people who needed to be "pleased" and they couldn't be neglected. Moreover, Wen Renyang had a "ferocious reputation"

Tai Sheng, most people don't want to deal with him. Although they don't necessarily want to discuss knowledge or anything, when they think about him being able to interact with those great scholars, they feel that they are not on the same level as him at all.

, you will become weak involuntarily, so Hua Baichen should handle it by himself.

So Prince Pingjin greeted Wen Renyang with a smile, patted Hua Baichen on the shoulder, and then greeted other guests warmly.

Hua Baichen's appearance was fair, clean and delicate, with a relaxed and carefree look between his eyebrows. He was dressed in fine clothes and looked like a gentleman. He just glanced at his house speechlessly.

My direct brother, the guests you greeted so warmly were flattered, and they made it clear that they were not very familiar with you, okay? In order to stay away, why do you do this? You are also the prince of the Hou family after all, and the salt you have eaten is worse than smelling it.

You've been living for several years, so why are you still as terrified as other people?

But when Hua Baichen looked directly at Wen Renyang, he hurriedly raised his hands and bowed. He had a tender face, clear eyes, and a serious look. Damn it, he couldn't help but feel terrified, and his aura also weakened.

Because his heart belongs to someone, Hua Baichen also wants to break off the engagement and marry the girl he loves. However, he knows very well that this is impossible, so he just thinks about some things and does not show them at all, because his heart

Belonging to someone, he felt somewhat ashamed of Wen Renying, and secretly decided to treat her better after marriage. After thinking this way, he felt calm and didn't feel there was anything wrong with continuing to pretend to be another person in his heart.

However, facing Wenren Yang now, he felt a little guilty for no reason.

Hua Baichen introduced Wen Renyang in. However, except for a few casual words, there seemed to be nothing much to say between them. Even Hua Baichen had ink in his belly, and his attainments in poetry, poetry, and poetry were not low.

He can be confident when facing his elders, but he feels helpless and depressed in front of Wen Renyang. After a few encounters, he finally understands how most scholars feel when they face Wen Renyang.

Therefore, it is true that Wen Renyang is not an ordinary "annoying person".

The two walked in silence, and the servants behind felt embarrassed.

However, Hua Baichen is actually the only one who is really embarrassed. Wenren Xiaosi doesn't feel that way. At this time, he is usually thick-headed and emotionally slow.

Han took Xiaocao and the others in through the side door of the Hou Mansion. Compared to the main entrance, there were many more people here. There were long lines of carriages and horses approaching. Even if there was no loud noise, the scene was lively and lively.

, whether it is a dignified lady, a virtuous young woman, a bright girl, a hairpin on the temples, a fragrant breeze, or a child who still occasionally plays even under the control of the elders, they all demonstrate the prominence of the Pingjin Marquis Mansion.

Wen Renying opened the carriage curtain from a distance and looked at this grand scene, but she felt extremely ironic. All of this would disappear in just five years. She "used to" stand in the position of the master.

However, it would be great if the number of guests could be less than half of what they are now. The difference is so obvious.

Sneezing, sneezing, sneezing, Xiaocao sneezed several times in a row, completely drawing Wen Renying's attention back.

"What's wrong with Xuan'er? Is it cold?" Han asked eagerly.

Wen Renying also looked concerned.

Xiaocao shook his head, a little embarrassed, "The fragrance was too strong, I couldn't hold it back for a while."

Han and Wen Renying couldn't hold back their laughter for a moment.

"Xuan'er, you are like this because you don't have much contact with her. If you have more contact with her, you will naturally get used to it. But if you really feel uncomfortable..." Mr. Han hesitated for a while, whether to let his daughter go back.

Xiaocao shook his head, "It's not that it's uncomfortable, it's just that I'm not used to it. I smell it more and think it's okay."

Wen Renying approached Xiaocao with a smile, "I still think the faint medicinal fragrance of Fourth Sister smells better. In comparison, the spices I liked before are a bit cloying now. I will give me some more scents later."

Take it." As he said this, he pinched a sachet around his waist, as if he couldn't put it down.

"Didn't you take enough sachets from your fourth sister? These sachets can't be used as food, so why do you need so much? Your fourth sister has so many things to do every day. Do you think everyone will follow you?

Just like that, she has nothing to do all day long and refuses to learn more. How can she have so much time to make sachets for you? Please give me some time to relax." Han couldn't help but poke her.
