Except for Mr. He¡¯s punishment of An Xi, there were no other incidents at the Dong family¡¯s banquet. At the end of the day, the guests and host were enjoying themselves.
After dinner, Mrs. Dong sent the female family members away, then helped Mrs. Dong back to the yard, and took the opportunity to chat about what happened at today's banquet.
Mrs. Dong drank tea and sighed: "My daughter-in-law is becoming more and more useless now. After a banquet, she feels like her bones are falling apart."
Mrs. Dong smiled and glanced at her daughter-in-law: "You, hurry up and marry Yuan Xuan. Once you have a daughter-in-law, you will be able to relax."
Mrs. Dong put down the teacup: "There have been several banquets at home. Does mother have anyone she cares about?"
The smile on Mrs. Dong's face faded a little, and she said with dissatisfaction: "The girls from local officials' families are pretty good in appearance and upbringing, but their family backgrounds are a little worse, and some of them are not worthy of our Yongjia Marquis Mansion. .¡±
Mrs. Dong: "Mom, the title of the Marquis Mansion will be inherited by the eldest brother in the future, and it has nothing to do with our house. My daughter-in-law thinks we can lower our family status a little."
Mrs. Dong immediately said with disapproval: "How is this possible? It is because your family cannot inherit the title, so you have to find a noble family, so that Yuan Xuan can have help in the future."
Mrs. Dong doesn¡¯t particularly value family status, but she also thinks what the old lady said makes sense. Marrying a daughter-in-law from a high-ranking family will make it much easier for her son in the future.
Mrs. Dong was silent for a moment: "Don't be anxious. If we can't choose the place well, we will go back to the capital to choose. Last year, I wrote a letter back and asked your aunt to help me see the portrait."
Mrs. Dong nodded, and then talked about Mr. He's punishment of An Xi.
After hearing this, Mrs. Dong sneered: "The He family is really good at making trouble at other families' banquets. Do you really think that they can ignore our family if they are transferred to the capital? The He family is quite powerful locally. But when it comes to the capital, it doesn¡¯t matter. I hope they can¡¯t ask for our favor in the future.¡±
Mrs. Dong said quickly: "There is no need for mother to be angry about this kind of thing. Let's just treat it as a joke." Then she smiled and said, "It's Yiyi, that girl. I really like it. If it weren't for today, She and Shiyu are helping Yuan Yao, and there's no telling how much trouble there will be."
Mrs. Dong¡¯s expression also softened: ¡°The eldest girl from the Yan family is really good.¡±
Mrs. Dong's eyes flashed and she asked tentatively: "Mom, what do you think if I tell Yuan Xuan about Yiyi?"
Outside the door, Dong Yuanxuan, who came to see his mother for something, was just about to enter when he heard these words. He was shocked in his heart and couldn't help but stop and stand silently outside the door, listening to what was said inside.
Mrs. Dong frowned and looked at her daughter-in-law: "How could you have such an idea?"
Mrs. Dong smiled and said: "My daughter-in-law really likes that girl Yiyi. She is refreshing, generous and capable. She started helping Mrs. Li with the housekeeping a few years ago. She gets along well with Yuan Yao and Yuan Xuan too. We¡¯ve known each other since childhood and know the basics"
Dong Yuanxuan outside the door listened to these words, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and the joy on his face could not be suppressed, causing the boy standing aside to look at him several times.
However, Mrs. Dong in the room interrupted Mrs. Dong.
"The Yan family's family background is too low. If you marry their family, let alone help Yuan Xuan, you might have to rely on Yuan Xuan to help them, no."
Outside the door, Dong Yuanxuan frowned when he heard Mrs. Dong's refusal without hesitation, and walked in without holding back.
Seeing Dong Yuanxuan, Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Dong were both a little surprised.
Mrs. Dong asked: "Have all the guests in the front yard been sent away?"
Dong Yuanxuan nodded. He calmed down after entering the door. He walked to the side with a smile and sat down: "I came here just to see my grandmother and mother. We are so busy with the banquet today. Are you tired?"
With her grandson being filial, Mrs. Dong suddenly smiled and narrowed her eyes: "No matter how tired it is, as long as it can help you choose a daughter-in-law you like, no matter how tired it is, your mother and I will be happy."
Seeing that their son looked embarrassed, Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Dong both laughed.
After the two of them laughed for a while, Dong Yuanxuan asked: "What were grandma and mother just talking about?"
Mrs. Dong glanced at Mrs. Dong and said with a smile: "Nothing, I just told you about Yiyi's rescue for your sister today."
Hearing this, Dong Yuanxuan¡¯s eyes flashed and he struggled a little in his heart. He knew that the young prince liked Sister Yan, but he still wanted to fight for himself.
"After all, he can't make the decision himself about the young prince's marriage,"It is impossible for Sister Yan to be his concubine, so if he wants to marry Sister Yan, it will not be considered as a disservice to the young prince.
After hesitating for a moment, Dong Yuanxuan said with a smile: "Sister Yan and sister Yan are on good terms. The two of them have always been inseparable." After saying that, he pretended to be casual.
"Speaking of which, the Yan family has grown up very quickly over the years. When I first met the Yan family brothers and sisters, Mr. Yan was just a county magistrate. Now, only a few years have passed. Not only has Mr. Yan become the prefect, but also the magistrate. Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Li are both Mrs. Gaoming."
"After passing the examination for literary studies, I started to work with Mr. Xiao. Today my father took the examination for literary studies and praised him several times, saying that he will definitely be a good candidate to be an official in the future."
Mrs. Dong glanced at her son and looked a little surprised. Her son rarely talked to them about such things. What happened today?
Thinking of what she had just discussed with her mother-in-law, Mrs. Dong's heart moved. Did her son fall in love with Yiyi?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Dong smiled and followed her son's words and said, "The Yan family has indeed developed well in recent years."
Mrs. Dong was not very interested. She just said: "But if a family wants to go far, it depends on whether the younger generations are promising. You can't tell anything by looking at it now."
Dong Yuanxuan smiled and said: "Grandma, of course the Yan family brothers are going to be successful. Not to mention Wenxiu, there are Wen Kai and Wen Tao. Now they are also working with the young prince. They will have a bright future."
Mrs. Dong shook her head: "Little Prince After Concubine Ma is straightened up, his own future is still uncertain, let alone those who follow him?"
Dong Yuanxuan frowned: "No way. Although the relationship between the young prince and Prince Heping is not very close, the emperor is still very good to him. Besides, the young prince is the disciple of the main wife, and Concubine Ma is just the stepmother. Xiao Yechen is not yet mature. Can I still compete with the young prince for the title of prince?"
Mrs. Dong looked at her grandson with disapproval: "You are still too young. People in the royal family always put their interests first. The emperor may have some love for the young prince, but this love is nothing in the face of the balance of interests. ?¡±
"Also, don't underestimate the woman in the backyard. Concubine Ma was able to force the former princess away and made it difficult for the young prince to live in the palace. Even now, when people in the capital mention the young prince, almost everyone still has a bad impression. , you can imagine how powerful her methods are."
As he spoke, he shook his head.
"Now that the young prince is in Zhongzhou, he can still have some leisure time. If he returns to Beijing, just wait and see, there will definitely be trouble."
"This man's energy is limited. He is entangled in all kinds of things. How can you expect him to make a good future? You know, he is not the only nephew of the emperor."
Dong Yuanxuan was silent: "Grandma, you don't understand the young prince. If you really want to return to Beijing, Concubine Ma will not be able to slander the young prince like she did when she was a child."
Mrs. Dong didn't care much: "Maybe, but the road for the young prince will definitely be difficult. Okay, let's not bother with other people's affairs." (Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel. com
