Chapter 67 Getting Married
This marriage is finally over!
Just as Xu Muzhou guessed, Ting Yuyuan is connected to the Prince Regent's Mansion, and if there is any trouble here, the other end will naturally receive the news immediately.
Since the Lin family has such a relationship with the Shen family, once he heard that the Lin family had invited him, Shen Yi should have known what was going on.Then he will definitely handle it himself.
Xu Muzhou is not in a hurry, but the current situation is somewhat embarrassing. Even if Shen Yi comes, this embarrassment will probably not disappear.
He really wanted to know what Shen Yi would do with it.
However, the strange thing is that Shen Yi didn't seem to need to take any action, as soon as he stepped into the door of the prime minister's mansion, Prime Minister Lin seemed to compromise in an instant.
The majesty of the regent in the court and among the officials can be seen.
During this period of time, Shen Yi was so tired of talking with him, that Xu Muzhou almost forgot that he was still the king regent with power over the government.
Shen Yi walked in, chose a chair next to Xu Muzhou and sat down, the clear intention of coming was already silent.
Lin Zaifu was not ignorant, he wanted to renegotiate the marriage contract out of consideration for his daughter's reputation, but judging by the current appearance of Zhuang Bai's nephew, he seemed to have decided on the Second Young Master Xu.
Master Zaifu will not force it, so as not to make trouble for himself.
Unexpectedly, the matter would be resolved so quickly. Xu Muzhou originally planned that Shen Yi would have to talk to Lin Xiangxiang for a long time no matter what. Maybe Xiangye would invite them to have dinner together.
"Actually, Miss Lin and I have never been on good terms. It's just that Lin Xiang has been thinking about the marriage contract between the two families for many years, so he didn't let her go to another family."
On the way back, Xu Muzhou and Shen Yi walked side by side, and they didn't sit in a sedan chair, so that they could talk.Shen Yi continued: "For this, the eldest lady almost hates me to death."
Xu Muzhou suddenly sensed something was wrong, "...Oh, could it be that the prince will come to the prime minister's mansion today, and it is the letter that Miss Lin sent to you?"
If it had nothing to do with Miss Lin, Shen Yi would not have said so much on purpose.Xu Muzhou understood Shen Yi like a roundworm in his stomach.
""Historically discord"?But if we can communicate at any time, I'm afraid it can't be regarded as "disharmony". "Although Xu Muzhou smiled, there was a hint of yin and yang in his tone.
Shen Yi suddenly felt satisfied, and leaned into Xu Muzhou's ear: "What's the matter... Is Young Master Xu jealous?"
In fact, just as Shen Yi said, the beloved jewel of the Lin family has had his own ideas since he was a child, and he has to be strong in every way, which is somewhat similar to Shen Yi's style of conduct.
So the two of you always don't let me and I don't let you, and getting along has not been smooth since childhood.Now that they have grown up, although they can't say they hate each other, they are still "disharmonious".
Miss Lin's ambition is not to be content with the regent's side, to be a princess, let alone she doesn't like Shen Yi.
It's just that Lin Xiang missed the old love and didn't want his daughter to bear a bad reputation, so he tried to match the two together.
Miss Lin knew that only Shen Yi would be able to suppress her father if she personally came to this matter.So he ordered the servant to send a letter to the Prince Regent's House.
"This is the first time we have sent a letter in private, just to dissolve the engagement. Young master Xu, what do you think...is this considered "disharmony"? "Shen Yi's eyes are bright, and the pupils on both sides are full of Xu Muzhou's appearance.
After all, Second Young Master Xu is reserved, and it is very rare for Qianqian to be jealous for a while. Shen Yi really wants to cherish it.
Now it's on the street in broad daylight, so it's inappropriate to act too outrageously, so Xu Muzhou just gently slipped his hand into Shen Yi's sleeve, and squeezed his palm:
"It's not just 'disharmony', it may also be 'unfamiliarity'. "
When they returned to the Prince Regent's Mansion that day, the two of them had another meal.Within a few days, the wedding ceremony was also organized, with lights and festoons, wedding hall and bridal chamber arranged.
Compared to the time in Xialiang County, the scene was not a bit grander.However, Xu Muzhou and Shen Yi are not the type of people who like to show off in this kind of matter, but according to Shen Yi's status as "Regent", they must go through a scene.
Fu Xiaotang came to ask his lord, which day was the auspicious date for the wedding, and Shen Yi asked Xu Muzhou what he meant.
In the end, the two decided to just pick a random day among the nearest auspicious days.
On the day of the wedding, it was indeed very lively. The common people liked to join in the fun. In their eyes, the Prince Regent was the number one person with power in the court. Although there were fears in their hearts, they were still more curious.
A wedding almost alarmed the crowds in the entire capital.
If the little emperor hadn't been kept in the palace by Jin Qiansui on the grounds of "guaranteeing His Majesty's safety first", the young emperor would have come to congratulate his little uncle's marriage.
In short, it was a lot of tossing, until midnight, Xu and Chen, who had already had a drink together, had a little time to relax, hugged each other tightly, and lay down on the bed.
Looking at the fiery red wedding tents, wedding quilts, and a room full of brightly flickering red candles, it just makes people feel as if they have passed away.
The two of them didn't do anything that night, and it was rare for them to get up late the next day.It can be seen that the sweetness of the gentle country is entangled.
The days after marriage were stable and smooth, but I heard that the Xu family has been in constant turmoil recently, causing criticism.No matter how Xu Muzhou was a bastard in name, comparing the two, it was inevitable that he would be involved in the gossip circulating in the market.
Xu Muzhou asked A Yuan to find out what happened to Xu's family. After A Yuan came back, she said that it was the eldest son Xu Xiuyu.
After taking over the head of the Xu family, the management of various businesses has been mediocre and unsatisfactory.
As the No. [-] noble merchant in the imperial city, it has long since lost its former glory, and can only barely maintain the existing signboard.
But in the past one or two months, it seems that even this existing signboard is almost lost.
I don't know when, a wave of foreign people poured into the capital silently, all of them have thick eyebrows and big eyes, and their clothes are not seen in the Central Plains.
The strangest thing is that I heard that each of these foreign people possesses special skills, and they make a living by doing business. They opened a restaurant in the capital called "Mingyinglou", where exotic dances are presented every day.
If you are lucky, you can catch up with the technicians doing tricks.
People in the Central Plains had never seen this before, so Mingyinglou became famous in the capital and became the most popular place for guests to linger.
Boss Cao of this restaurant is also good at doing business. Taking advantage of the reputation of the famous actor building, he has opened up many side businesses. The guests are naturally willing to appreciate the honor and love the house.
And the boss's side business, coincidentally, every item corresponds to what Mr. Xu is running.When everyone patronizes the Cao family, Xu Xiuyu will naturally lose money.
In just two months, most of Xu Xiuyu's shops have been sold out by the shopkeeper surnamed Cao, and many of them have already closed down.
I don't know what method Boss Cao is using, every time Xu Xiuyu confronts him, not to mention that he won't win the competition, it also provokes a lot of criticism.
Xu's reputation fell again and again, and there were even rumors that the title of "No. [-] Noble Merchant" was about to be replaced.
On this day, Xu Shuangtan visited Ting Yuyuan and brought a box of sweet cakes from home. She remembered that this was the second brother's favorite food when he was a child.
Xu Muzhou welcomed the person in, prepared good tea himself, sat opposite the half-sister, and made a cup of tea for him, "Sister Shuangtan must have something to say when she comes here. gone."
Actually, Xu Shuangtan didn't take the initiative to come to the door today.
She really wanted to talk to Xu Muzhou about something, but after much deliberation, she didn't dare to make up her mind to come to the door.When passing by the vegetable market next to the house with the maid, I met the book boy next to the second brother who was shopping for vegetables with a vegetable basket on his shoulders.
It is better to hit the sun than to choose the day, so Xu Shuangtan made up his mind and asked A Yuan to lead the way to Ting Yuyuan.
But at this time, seeing Xu Muzhou expressing all ears, Shuang Tan also cut straight to the point: "Second brother, the family is not peaceful now, and the eldest brother doesn't know who he provoked. In the past half month, someone has come to the door for two Second-rate."
"It's said that the big brother's shop is short of catties, the materials used are inferior, and the popularity of using it is boiling. Everyone wants to ask for an explanation."
Xu Shuangtan didn't talk nonsense. In the past half month, there have been wave after wave of people who went to Xu's house to make trouble. Since Xu Xuanyang's incident, Xu Huan and his wife rarely showed up in front of people.
The He family has been lingering on the sick bed, Xu Huan's health is not good, and Xu Xiuyu can't calm down.
Because those angry people seemed to be unable to listen to any of his explanations. Once he showed up, it would only make things worse.
In the current Xu family, apart from the old man, Shuangtan, the youngest daughter of a concubine, can only take care of the housework.
But she can't support herself alone, and if she can find anyone to help, the only person she can think of is Xu Muzhou, the second elder brother.
It's just... Shuang Tan also knows that Xu Muzhou has a special relationship with her family, and it's really unkind to ask for help because of family matters, but she is really desperate.
"Second brother.. In the past 12 years, the family has been sorry for you.. I dare not ask you to take care of the "family affairs", but there is something strange about the eldest brother..."
"..Can you.. just treat it as a roadside injustice..."
Xu Shuangtan bit her head, and jumped out word by word with difficulty, thinking that even if her second brother refused, she had to try her best to ask first.
Unexpectedly, Xu Muzhou didn't seem to want to refuse, but instead asked: "How do you know that something is wrong, it is common for people who run a business to be spurned by others because of reasons such as "lack of money and less money". "
Xu Shuangtan's face was serious, "If it's the reason, it's not surprising. But, second brother, although the eldest brother is not good at business affairs, he will not be short on his own initiative."
"Because the materials used in the shop are not under his control, but Grandpa holds them in his hands. Grandpa did this because he was afraid that my elder brother would suffer from other people's secret losses, but this "secret loss" still came. "
"Then according to my sister, there is someone else who carefully created these troubles." Xu Muzhou heard what Xu Shuangtan meant, "Who does my sister think it is? And for what purpose?"
Xu Shuangtan took a deep breath and lowered his voice: "Mingling Lou's shopkeeper Cao."
