Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1,236 Xiao’s Envy
The main room was very lively. Except for Xiang Weinan, who was standing next to Mrs. Xiao and frowned, no one noticed that there was something wrong with her expression.
Mrs. Xiao wanted to leave, but it was obviously not the right time now. Her husband was right here, so she could only bite the bullet and continue to stay, listening to this lively meeting between the in-laws and her family.
It was already agreed upon that the Meng family came to propose marriage. Although it was the first time that Meng Pei came to the Lu family today, he was talkative and generous, and there was no barrier at all when chatting with the old lady.
The matchmakers on the side felt that they couldn't get a word in.
Not long after, Lu Erbai and Ruan Shi came back.
The two families chatted even more passionately, and the whole hall was filled with laughter.
Mrs. Xiao became increasingly uneasy, but she realized that Wei Nan was accompanying the two parties this time as a matchmaker.
Seeing that it was getting late, the Meng family all stayed for dinner.
Mrs. Xiao and Aunt Gu looked at each other, smiled bitterly, and went to the flower hall together.
Mrs. Xiao had been silent at the dinner table, only occasionally looking at Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng.
She remembered that when Xiang Weinan came to Xiao's house to propose marriage, she hid behind the screen and watched secretly. She was very happy and shy at that time because she was going to marry the man she liked.
However, Xiang Weinan, who came with the official media, did not look happy at all.
He was very polite, had complete etiquette, had everything he should have, and followed all the steps and customs that he should follow. He couldn't find any mistakes, but... he wasn't very happy.
At that time, Mrs. Xiao thought, it doesn't matter, she knew that the imperial edict granting marriage was sudden, and most people would not be happy if it happened to them. When the two of them get married in the future, he will know how good he is, and the two of them will live in harmony.
However, until now, there has been no progress between them.
Looking at Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng again, she thought, this is probably how a man and a woman who are truly in love with each other would behave like this when proposing marriage, right?
"If you've finished eating, go back first. I have other things to do here."
Suddenly, a low voice came to her ears, and Mrs. Xiao suddenly came back to her senses, only to realize that it was Xiang Weinan talking to her.
She was silent for a moment and nodded, "Okay."
Mrs. Xiao actually had no appetite, so after finishing her meal, she went to say goodbye to Shu Yu.
Shu Yu nodded and asked someone to send her out.
When she arrived at the door of Lu's house, Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but look back, as the lively chatter and laughter inside seemed to still echo in her ears.
Aunt Gu sighed, "Miss, it seems we have really misunderstood Mr. Lu Xiang."
But Madam Xiao grabbed the handkerchief fiercely, turned around suddenly, her eyes became sharp, "Let's go back to the county government office and find Madam Ren."
Ren?
Aunt Gu quickly realized, "Miss, what you are saying is that the rumors about Mr. Lu Xiang that we accidentally heard were not an accident? Is it the Ren family?"
The Ren family was the concubine that Xiang Weinan brought to Jiangyuan County.
When they first came to Jiangyuan County, they didn't know much about the situation here, so they were particularly concerned when they overheard Ren mentioning Mr. Lu Xiang.
At the beginning, Mrs. Ren was talking to the little maid in the room. She suddenly mentioned Xiang Weinan's unusual attitude towards Shu Yu and suspected that Shu Yu might become his future wife.
Mrs. Xiao had just passed by the door at that time. She was not impulsive, but she was inevitably a little concerned when she heard Xiang Weinan. After listening to what Ren said, she went to check and found out that Xiang Weinan behaved differently towards Shu Yu.
