Chapter 87 "Your Highness the Crown Prince?" Wei Hanzhang was stunned for a moment, with just the right amount of surprise on his face. He thought about it carefully before saying, "After my granddaughter returned to Beijing, she went out to have banquets with her mother-in-law a few times, or she went to other places with Liu. My sister went to play with other noble ladies and never met His Royal Highness. This is all for sure." "Oh?" Wei Ping suddenly raised his eyes and looked straight over, saying, "You mean, today is the first time you met His Highness, and he helped you with his own hands?" Wei Hanzhang said without hesitation: "My granddaughter doesn't know why His Highness is supporting you, but today is indeed the first time I meet His Highness the Crown Prince." Wei Ping closed his eyes slightly, as if he was lost in thought and stopped talking. Mrs. Liu on the side took over. She looked at her biological granddaughter carefully from top to bottom with a gaze that could be described as scrutinizing, and then said slowly: "Well, Yi Ranran, you can see for yourself, does His Highness have any other intentions for supporting you today?" "Mother!" Wei Hanzhang hadn't spoken yet. Wei Heng, who was sitting aside, couldn't help but said: "Ran Ran is still a girl who has not yet had hair extensions. How can she ask such a question?" "Is there anything you don't want to ask?" Mrs. Liu said, "If His Highness has no other intentions, then Ran Ran and the Qian family will have to start discussing their marriage. Otherwise..." She paused slightly and sighed: "On the other hand, our Wei family will probably have a real phoenix." As soon as these words came out, the room was silent for a few moments, and everyone felt a sense of disappointment.
But I didn't find this result too unacceptable in my heart. After all, His Highness has always been very indifferent to women. How could he have such thoughts towards a girl whom he had only met once before her hair was born? I'm afraid I really treated her like a child and helped her... The silence in the room was broken by Wei Hanzhang. She pursed her lips and said bluntly: "I don't want to discuss marriage with Silang of the Qian family." Wei Ping still closed his eyes and turned a deaf ear to her words. After he was sure that the prince had no other thoughts about his granddaughter, how could he care about anything else. Mrs. Liu no longer acted kindly, and she quietly sipped her tea without saying a word. Neither father nor mother spoke, and the prince Wei Huan also remained silent. Wei Hanzhang was suspended in the air by their indifferent attitude, and when he was feeling embarrassed, a gentle voice came from the side. "What?" After all, Wei Heng, his own father, was present, so he asked, "Why did Mr. Qian's husband annoy us Ran Ran?" Wei Hanzhang, who had been ignored, felt a sudden soreness in her nose when she heard this, but she quickly held it back, opened her mouth, and described in detail, word by word, the story of Qian Chengyun and his wife coming to see her. Finally, she said firmly: "I don't want to marry a man like him who is ready to spoil his concubine and destroy his wife before we get married." "A concubine is a concubine, no matter how favored she is, how can she be better than my wife?" Mrs. Liu, who had not spoken before, before waiting for Wei Heng to speak, said bluntly: "It's just a concubine. He is so hot right now. Who knows how many years he can be favored?" , Don’t be so short-sighted and compare yourself to the despicable people.” "Whose husband doesn't have a few concubines and maids in his backyard? Is it because your uncle Jiang's house doesn't have any, or is your father's backyard clean? Is it worth your care?" Mrs. Liu vented all the anger she had received from her son on the granddaughter she had never raised before her knees, and scolded her coldly: "If you don't want to marry this one, don't marry that one. You think you are a girl who has been disowned, and you still have to choose." Can’t do it?” "The elders make the final decision on marriage matters. Go and ask whose girl is like you, talking about her own marriage. I don't know how the Jiang family teaches you, but now that you have returned home, the rules will be given to me. It’s a good lesson, don’t be so reckless and impulsive.” Thinking of the previous warning from her confidant, Ms. Liu said with a stern expression: “For a girl to be married, her reputation is the most important thing. Don’t show off your anger and argue with your words. , and ruined the reputation.” The candles in the room were brightly lit, and Mrs. Liu's voice was loud and clear. Wei Hanzhang lowered his eyes and listened, his face gradually becoming dull. The two windows in the study room were still open, but there was no cool breeze coming in on the sultry summer night. Logically speaking, she should feel hot, but now she was standing in front of the hall, and her back, which was still a little hot, felt inexplicably cold. Cool without wind.
She just didn't directly admit that she knew Xiao Boqian personally, and that she would read out the imperial edict of conferring the title of Crown Princess after she was born, because she felt that she did not have a sense of belonging in the Wei family. After returning to Beijing, things happened one after another. In the huge Zhongyong Hou Mansion, apart from Jiang and Wei Heng, only Wei Hanshuang made her feel the care of her family. As for his grandmother Liu, who always looks kind, but acts coldly and neglectfully, and... his grandfather Wei Ping, who shows no kindness even when asked a few times, to Wei Hanzhang, he is worse than a stranger. . On the way to the study, she made up her mind and wanted to try out what her 'elders' would do to her if she was still the ninth lady of the Wei family who broke off the engagement and had no relationship with His Highness. Although she had experienced the indifference of the Hou family towards family affection after the Wei Hanyu incident before, and she had some understanding of it and had made some preparations, it would still be different in person. This was her biological elder. After knowing that she had no relationship with the prince, her attitude changed astonishingly. It was really heartbreaking. At this moment, she was sternly scolded by Mrs. Liu. Except for Wei Heng who looked anxious and spoke to save her, her grandfather Wei Ping never opened his eyes from the beginning to the end, and her uncle Wei Huan had nothing to do with her. Because in their eyes, she has no value, she is an insignificant girl whose future has been decided, and she is insignificant, so naturally they don't need to listen to her ideas. Wei Hanzhang smiled coldly in his heart, that being the case... She didn't speak again, but Wei Heng argued with his mother for the sake of his daughter. Finally, Wei Ping, who had closed his eyes and remained silent, spoke, ending the inquiry that had been triggered by His Royal Highness the Prince's personal visit to the Marquis Mansion to help Wei Hanzhang. After leaving the study room, Wei Heng walked a few steps with his daughter and said comfortingly: "Ran Ran Anxin, as long as my father is here, I will never let you marry someone you don't want to marry." Thinking about his parents' attitude tonight, he sighed in his heart. "Don't blame your grandmother. When it comes to the marriage of her children and grandchildren, the first thing she values is the lintel." She reached out and patted the young girl's shoulder slowly, "Your grandmother is doing her best for you from the bottom of her heart. She only wants you to marry into the right family. Don’t let others look down on you.” Wei Hanzhang said nothing. She felt clear in her heart, why didn't Mrs. Liu not want others to look down on her?
Maybe, but it's more for the sake of Wei Mansion's reputation. If she marries into Qian's family, which is also part of the Hou family, there won't be so much talk about her granddaughter being divorced. If it's a low-income family, it's hard to say. The above conditions are that it doesn't matter what kind of person the granddaughter marries, it's just that she brought an outsider to see her, so the relationship will naturally be the same as the relationship between the two.
