Chapter 138 Ning Jiaoer Comes to Shen Mansion (1)
Mrs. Huo acted quickly. She found a matchmaker the next day and went to the Shen Mansion with Mrs. Ning and Ning Weian, bringing gifts.
The reason why Mrs. Huo hurriedly found someone to come to the Shen Mansion was because she saw that Shen Yun was having a day off today. However, her daughter only came back the day before, and the people from the Marquis' Mansion came with a matchmaker the next day. It was really too fast.
Shen Yun had originally planned to go out during the day off, but now he can only stay in the mansion to entertain the guests.
Mrs. Huo had not originally intended to bring Ning Jiao'er with her. Originally, it would have been inappropriate for her to come along with them for all these things. But Mrs. Huo just couldn't stand her daughter's coquetry, and she even promised that she would not go with them to the main hall, and she wanted to go find Sister Shen.
When Ning Jiaoer arrived, Cheng Jinchu was still having breakfast, a relatively late breakfast.
"Yuanyuan? Why didn't you tell me you were coming so I could pick you up!"
Cheng Jinchu's breakfast was simple, a basket of buns, a bowl of porridge and a small plate of pickles. Cheng Jinchu watched Ning Jiaoer come in, put down the bowl, stood up, walked over and pulled Ning Jiaoer over to sit down.
"Sister, you just got up? You are such a lazy pig."
Ning Jiaoer was woken up by her father early in the morning to exercise. When her father was at home, she could never sleep in.
"Well, there's nothing to do anyway, and I slept a little late, so I got up later. Fortunately, grandma doesn't ask me to pay my respects to her every day.
She loves us grandchildren more. My daughter-in-law has to get up early to go to her place, but the grandchildren don’t have to. Alas, this is a benefit that only girls can have. "
Ning Jiao'er lowered her head. Her cousin had been visiting the Marquis' Mansion more frequently recently. She felt very strange and didn't want to see him.
She wanted to go out and look for Ling Xiao. Ling Xiao had been back for such a long time but had not come to see her. In the past, he would have climbed over the wall to bring her delicious food. As a result, he sent a servant to deliver some cakes every day.
Also, she seemed to think that after a few days she would no longer care about the girl whose face she didn't see that day but only her hand. She had wanted to take advantage of Ling Xiao coming to see her to pretend that she didn't care and asked about her in passing, but in the end, he was about to leave and never came to see her once.
She had looked for sister Zi Xin, but she had no time to pay attention to her recently, so as soon as her mother came back, she started to find someone for her.
"What's wrong? Why do you look so unhappy?"
Seeing Ning Jiaoer not saying anything, Cheng Jinchu asked with concern.
Ning Jiaoer raised her head and looked at Cheng Jinchu and asked seriously.
"Sister Shen, if I say I don't want to marry my cousin, will you think I'm being too much? Obviously, both families have discussed it and are waiting for a good day to propose marriage.
But, I have been having the same dream recently. In the dream, there is a person who is very far away from me. He is shouting at me loudly and seems to be saying something.
However, I couldn't hear it. I just vaguely saw that person shouting very hard. I couldn't see that person's face clearly. Recently, I finally heard that voice. It was very small. I listened carefully for several days. He said: Don't marry my cousin, don't! "
Cheng Jinchu didn't say anything in response to Ning Jiaoer's words, but instead asked her a question.
"So what do you think?"
Ning Jiaoer pursed her lips.
"When I was ten years old, I heard my parents' conversation. Because Uncle Ling and my father were very good friends, my father told my mother that Ling Xiao and I grew up together as childhood sweethearts, just like them. He privately told Uncle Ling that he wanted Ling Xiao to marry me.
My mother doesn't think so. She thinks Ling Xiao will go to the battlefield one day. He is a very motivated person, so he must want to go to the battlefield to make military achievements. However, the battlefield is too dangerous. She thinks my cousin is very good. My cousin has been raised by my aunt. He is gentle and polite. He will definitely treat me very well. "
"Well, what did you think, at that time."
Ning Jiaoer smiled.
"What can I think? I just think that although this happened five years ago, I have indeed grown a lot in these five years. Now think about it, I was just a child at that time. What does a child know?"
Cheng Jinchu thought, let alone when she was ten years old, even at your current age, she didn’t even graduate from junior high school in her previous life, so she was also a child.
She was just a college graduate at that time and she wasn't even talking about marriage!
Cheng Jinchu sighed. In her previous life, she was a single woman, but in this life, she already had a fiancé at the age of five. She was really amazing.
"My mother told me at that time that if you marry someone, you have to live with him, just like she and my father. I thought at that time that if I were to live with someone, I would want to live with Ling Xiao. I have loved running after him since I was a child. I should be happier if I live with him. He always takes me to play."
"But later, your parents wanted to arrange a marriage between you and your cousin. I asked you, how did you feel? Didn't you say your cousin was a good person?"
"Sister Shen, I may really be a very bad girl. I told my mother that I have been having a very bad time recently. I can't sleep. I feel very panicked. I don't want to see my cousin. I am even afraid of the day of marriage."
When she said this, Ning Jiaoer's eyes were filled with tears. She took out a handkerchief, wiped her tears and continued.
"I don't know what's wrong with me. I really want to find Ling Xiao, but my mother won't let me go. I haven't seen him for a long time.
I didn’t apologize to him in person for what happened last time. I thought, even if we met once, I would be married next time he comes back. If we meet again, it would be bad, and it would be bad for his future marriage…”
Ning Jiaoer spoke softer and softer, and her tears fell even harder. It seemed that she could not stop her tears.
"I don't know what's wrong with me, really, Sister Shen, this is the first time I realized that I actually wanted to regret my marriage before I got married.
But, but, I looked at my parents, my aunt, and my cousin, they were all so happy, but I was alone, and I didn’t know what to do.
I used to think that my parents always had the best in mind for me, and my cousin was also good to me. When my cousin came to my house and heard that I was going to get engaged to my cousin, she kept saying that she envied me. She said that I was really lucky that someone as good as my cousin could become my husband.
But at that moment, I didn’t feel proud or happy. My mother said that I was just getting married soon and couldn’t bear to leave my parents and felt uncomfortable, so I acted like that. Is that true?
Cheng Jinchu took the handkerchief from Ning Jiaoer's hand and wiped her tears carefully.
"Look, your eyes are all red from crying, Yuanyuan, I'm going to ask you a question. If, think about it now, if the husband you marry is Ling Xiao, would you still think the same way as you do now?"
Ning Jiaoer frowned, her tears rolling down her cheeks. She seemed to be really thinking. For a long while, she looked at Cheng Jinchu.
"Sister, this is impossible. Ling Xiao must have someone he likes. That day, the girl in the carriage, and also, my cousin came to me that day and told me that she saw Ling Xiao entering the inn with a girl."
