Although she knew that what she proposed was wrong, Dongfang Hui could not give up just like that. Not only was she unable to swallow her anger because of Xu Qingchen's merciless provocation, but her identity also did not allow her to walk out of the room like this. Glass City was still filled with people, and even the Prince Ding Mansion did not dare to say that there were no spies in the mansion. The moment they stepped out of the Prince Ding Mansion, the news that the Lord of Infinite Boundless Mountain had personally proposed marriage to Young Master Qingchen on behalf of his disciple and was still rejected would spread throughout Glass City. It was not that Dongfang Hui did not want to leave, but that she was also in a difficult position.
After a moment of silence, Dongfang Hui quickly collected her thoughts and raised her head to ask, "Since that is the case, I wonder if I can meet Mr Hongyu and Madam personally? Speaking of which, I have not seen Mr Hongyu for over twenty years. "
Just as Ye Li was about to refuse, she saw Xu Qingchen nodding at her discreetly. Although she did not understand Xu Qingchen's thoughts, Ye Li did not ask further. She summoned Zhuo Jing and asked him where Xu Hongyu and Madam Xu were. Zhuo Jing replied, "Mr Hongyu is in the study. Madam Xu and Madam Xu are in the guest courtyard talking with Madam Yang." Ye Li nodded and said, "Go and invite Uncle and Aunt over."
Zhuo Jing accepted the order and left. The hall fell silent for a moment. Dongfang Hui had something on her mind, and had just been slapped in the face by Xu Qingchen, so she was not in the mood to speak. As the host, Mo Xiuyao directly lay on Ye Li's lap and closed his eyes to rest. His silver hair was casually spread out on Ye Li's lap, not caring that there were guests present. Xu Qingchen and Ye Li were also people who could keep their composure. They each sat and sipped their tea, their expressions calm and composed. On the other hand, although Dongfang You was mentally prepared for Xu Qingchen's rejection, when she heard Xu Qingchen's rejection again, she could not help but feel more disappointed and pained in her heart. She looked at Xu Qingchen with more bitterness in her eyes.
Initially, when she said that she wanted to marry Xu Qingchen, it was indeed an expedient plan. Even Dongfang You herself did not feel that it was a must. She just felt that Xu Qingchen was the best choice. However, after Young Master Qingchen's repeated rejections, Dongfang You took it to heart. If it was said that Dongfang You had chosen to marry Xu Qingchen first because Young Master Qingchen was Ding Wangfei's cousin and the number one strategist in Ding Wangfu, then because of Young Master Qingchen himself. Her persistence had nothing to do with Xu Qingchen's identity.
Ye Li sighed inwardly when she saw Dongfang You's expression. Unfortunately, Xu Qingyan's prediction was right. In fact, Dongfang You had been careless in this matter. In the beginning, she probably did not think that she would have any feelings for Xu Qingchen. That was why she could speak so openly. Just as she said, it was just a mutually beneficial cooperation. But since Young Master Qingchen was known as the Immortal Young Master, it was too easy for women to fall in love with him. If Dongfang You had such a relationship tribulation, it was entirely her own fault.
Not long after, Xu Hongyu arrived with Madam Xu. Behind them was naturally Xu Qingyan, who wished for the world to be in chaos.
Seeing Xu Hongyan, Dongfang Hui also stood up and smiled, "Brother Xu, I haven't seen you for many years. You are still as elegant as ever." It had to be said that Dongfang Hui was a very attractive woman, even if she was not young anymore. Perhaps it was because of her identity as the owner of the Boundless Mountain that she had the confidence and agility of a woman in the world. But she did not make people feel that she was domineering or annoying. Only Madam Sun of the Emperor Of Xiling City, Sun Hui Niang, had such a feeling. But she was more elegant and restrained than Sun Hui Niang. Sun Hui Niang only made people feel that she was agile and domineering, but she made people feel reverence and admiration from the bottom of their hearts.
Xu Hongyu nodded and smiled faintly, "Madam Dongfang."
Ye Li stood up and said softly, "Li 'er and the Prince are not handling things well. Sorry to trouble First Uncle and Aunt." Madam Xu took her hand and said with a smile, "What are you talking about? It's about Qingchen's marriage. How can it be troublesome? If I can let your big brother marry a good wife, I'm willing to be busy every day. "
"Mother …" Xu Qingchen did not know whether to laugh or cry. It seemed that his mother really hated him for not getting married. She did not forget to make fun of him at all times.
Madam Xu glanced at him and said unhappily, "Do you still have something to say? If you had not been unwilling to get married, how could there be today's matter? "
Young Master Qingchen touched his nose and silently admitted it. Dongfang Hui and Dongfang You's expressions changed. Although Madam Xu did not speak to them, her words were obviously scolding Xu Qingchen. In the ears of others, it was more like she was saying that Dongfang You was shameless and wanted to stick to Xu Qingchen. Dongfang Hui's expression froze slightly, but she recovered quickly. If Ye Li had not been paying attention to her, she would not have noticed it. Dongfang Hui stroked her hair and said with a faint smile, "Big Brother Xu, it's rare for sister-in-law to be so straightforward."
Only then did Mrs. Xu turn around to look at her. Then she turned to Xu Hongyu and asked, "Master, is there a girl in our family?" Do you think I can't tell that you're mocking me for not looking like a girl from a noble family?
Xu Hongyu said with a faint smile, "Madam, don't be silly. You have been married to the Xu family for more than 30 years. Don't you know who is in our family? This is Madam Dongfang of the Boundless Mountain. We met several times in the early years when Madam Dongfang went out to practice. "
"I see." Madam Xu nodded and said apologetically, "Madam Dongfang, I'm sorry. Please don't take offense. "
Dongfang Hui only felt a pain in her stomach. She had not left the mountain for 20 years, but she had experienced a lot in these years. She had never felt that she was so annoying. Or the people at the foot of the mountain had changed too quickly in the past 20 years? If Xu Qingchen was trying to hide her hostility, then Madam Xu was clearly hostile to her. Looking at Xu Hongyu, who was standing beside Madam Xu, Dongfang Hui suddenly realized something. But she also felt that she was wronged. Although she did have some thoughts about Xu Hongyu when she was young. But when she knew that Xu Hongyu was married and she was going to take over the Boundless Mountain, she gave up this thought. If Madam Xu was hostile to her because of this, she would be too narrow-minded.
After the host and guest were seated, Madam Xu looked at Dongfang Hui calmly and said with a faint smile, "Just now, Li 'er sent someone to say that Madam Dongfang wants to talk to us about Qingchen's marriage. What does Madam have to say?"
Dongfang Hui felt a little embarrassed, but she still calmly said what she wanted to say. She expressed very euphemistically that the Boundless Mountain was willing to marry the Xu family. Madam Xu looked at Dongfang You lightly and said, "Do you know the process of marriage in ordinary families?"
Dongfang Hui was stunned. Before she could answer, she heard Madam Xu continue, "Nacai, Wenming, Naji, Nizheng, Betrothal, and Bride Escort. Even in the royal family, the name of the girl who was granted marriage by the royal family is only known by those who are very close to her. Miss Dongfang has been famous all over the world before she is married. If she really gets married, asking for her name can be saved. That's not a big deal. A talented and beautiful girl should be more tolerant. In the past, the names of the noble ladies in the Chu capital were also spread, but they were not as famous as Miss Dongfang. However, the future daughter-in-law of the Xu family doesn't need to be beautiful or famous. There is only one rule. She must abide by the rules and abide by the rules. "
