Chapter 457 It turns out to be a blind marriage
Xu Muhua also noticed that Tian seemed very uncomfortable and restrained here. After sitting for a while, she suggested opening another private room next door, and the men chatted on their own. Anyway, the business was almost over, so she accompanied Tian and the little guy to play next door for a while. Sure
enough, as soon as they arrived at the private room next door, Tian relaxed visibly.
"Miss Xu, thank you."
Xu Muhua was stunned for a moment, "Thank me for what?"
Tian smiled and said nothing.
She knew that it was Miss Xu who saw that she was uncomfortable there, so she suggested opening another private room.
There, although they were all good friends of her husband, she was actually not familiar with them and felt very strange. She was indeed very nervous and uncomfortable sitting there. If her husband hadn't said that she was his wife, and that it would be impolite not to say hello since they had bumped into each other, she wouldn't have come up.
She was really not good at socializing.
After a brief encounter, Xu Muhua probably knew what kind of person Tian was.
She was just a little curious, why would Brother Liang marry such a wife, to complement each other?
Curious, she asked, "Sister-in-law, how did you and Brother Liang get married?"
Tian answered honestly, "We were engaged when we were young, and I got married when I grew up."
In fact, she also knew that her husband didn't like a wife like her, and she should have married after she reached the age of 15. In fact, their marriage was delayed for two years, and she was about to become an old maid. At one point, she thought that the marriage would be cancelled in the end.
Unexpectedly, he finally obeyed his parents' orders and married her.
She also knew that her personality was not pleasing to others. She has a younger sister who is loved by everyone, lively and cheerful, courageous, and sweet-talking. No matter who she meets, she can talk and get along with everyone.
Unlike her, she is a quiet person, timid as a mouse, and can't speak. She may not reply to ten sentences of others.
After she got married, she once inadvertently heard her mother-in-law sighing, saying that it was fortunate that her husband was not the eldest son, otherwise she would not be able to support the identity of a mistress of the family. It's good to be like this now. She thinks it makes sense.
It's just that she feels a little sorry for her husband. The woman he likes should be like Miss Xu, right?
Unconsciously, Tian looked at Xu Muhua with a hint of envy and regret.
Xu Muhua:
No, is this sister-in-law making up something in her mind?
But it turns out that her marriage with Brother Liang was arranged since childhood!
"Have you met Brother Liang before you got married?"
Xu Muhua asked with a glimmer of hope.
Tian shook her head honestly, "No."
When the marriage was arranged, their family also lived in the capital, but later they moved away. It was not until she got married that they came back to live in the capital. So there was no chance to meet.
Xu Muhua couldn't help but sigh in her heart. This is clearly a blind marriage!
But most of the marriages of ancient people were like this. Fortunately, she didn't have to, otherwise it would be really difficult to accept marrying a completely strange man and having children... Just thinking about it makes me feel sick!
Xu Muhua wanted to comfort Tian, but she felt that she didn't seem to need to comfort others. In her opinion, this was a blind marriage, but in the eyes of women of this era, such a marriage couldn't be more normal.
If they were to have free love, it would be shocking to the world!
She couldn't just look at their marriage with a modern perspective and then be self-righteous.
In the end, she could only say dryly: "Brother Liang is a good person..."
Tian frowned slightly, lowered her eyes quietly, and murmured: "Yes, he is a good person."
Even if he was not satisfied with her as a wife, he still gave her the respect she deserved.
But people are prone to greed, and she is no exception.
Especially when she saw him and Miss Xu getting along today, she couldn't help but wonder, if he married a woman like Miss Xu, would he be as relaxed and comfortable as he was just now when he returned home? Instead of being speechless with her and unable to talk to her?
Xu Muhua saw that she looked strange and wanted to ask, but she felt that it was their first meeting and it was not appropriate to talk about too intimate topics.
After thinking for a while, she said: "If you have nothing to do in the future, sister-in-law can come to the Chengguo Mansion to play with me. I have pets in my yard, and little Ruowei will definitely like them!"
It's hard to say about other people's pets, but the ones she raised will definitely not hurt the little guy. Because they can communicate, she also knows what they are thinking.
Tian was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses and asked happily: "Won't this disturb you? I heard from my husband that you will be getting married to the prince soon, so you should be very busy, right?"
"Not busy, I don't need to worry about the marriage, I'm free! And I like little Ruowei very much!"
Seeing that she didn't seem to be being polite, Tian was also very happy. After all, the daughter is hers. If others like her daughter, doesn't that prove that her daughter is likable? As a mother, of course she is happy.
She smiled shyly and mustered up the courage to say, "Well, then I'm sorry to bother you
." "Sister-in-law, you are too polite."
"You...you can call me Xiaoyu!"
Calling sister-in-law makes people feel embarrassed.
"Okay, Xiaoyu!"
Xu Muhua and Tian were chatting about Ruo Wei. As they chatted, Tian gradually relaxed and talked more. Her words became more natural.
Until someone knocked on the door of the private room, and before they could answer, the door was pushed open. First a maid walked in, and then a woman wearing a cloak walked in.
As soon as she saw Tian after entering, she complained, "Sister-in-law, why did you leave without telling me? I had to look for you for so long!"
Tian's originally relaxed expression immediately tensed up when she saw this woman. She seemed to have tried to hold it back but couldn't help it, and said, "You left without telling me, and you also called away my maids and old women!"
She was left alone with the child, and she bumped into someone, and almost got into trouble! She still had the nerve to blame her!
"Sister-in-law, what you said was wrong. Why did I leave without telling you? Didn't I ask you to borrow the maids and old women? Since you borrowed them, it must be something important. Do I have to tell you again?"
Tian was even more angry, "Who agreed to lend her to you?"
She didn't agree at all, but she dragged her away! Could she go and snatch her back like a shrew? She
didn't plan to go out today, but she insisted on dragging her out. When she refused, she said some weird words, forcing her to carry her daughter out.
