Chapter 962: Seen Through the Disguise
Xuan Miaoer always felt as if there was something wrong with this person, why did she always look at herself like that. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Xiao Jin also found out about this, and politely tentatively said: "Brother Li Xian, I forgot to introduce it, this is my sister, Lan'er, I guess you know." ā
Li Sheng's face flushed slightly: "I know, why don't I know, my uncle must have said that I had a marriage contract with Lan'er's sister, right?" There has been no news from your family over the years, and I have also been to the capital to inquire a few times, but I haven't found it, I didn't expect you to come back this year." ā
Xuan Miao'er was still chatting with her just now, but at this time, she jumped down, she didn't expect this, this Hu Lan'er has a marriage contract, what can I say, she hurriedly looked at Xiao Jin for help, because she was not good at talking.
Xiao Jin was also blindsided for a while, because this situation was really unexpected, how could he not expect that in such a few days, such a moth could come out, if the drunken boy knew, he would have to play with himself.
"I've heard my father talk about this, but my father has been in poor health, so this matter has been put on hold. Xiao Jin thought that he would leave tomorrow anyway, and he would try his best not to suspect the other party today.
But Li Sheng seemed to be really optimistic about Xuan Miao'er: "Brother Hu, you also know that this marriage Chongxi works for the old man's illness, I have been waiting for Lan'er's sister for so long, I think it is rare for you to come back, or I will go back to the capital with you to propose marriage."
Xuan Miao'er was startled and stood up directly: "No." After speaking, he felt that he had lost his temper: "Li Gongzi, I'm sorry, I'm a little excited, because I have been copying Buddhist scriptures for my father all the year round, and an abbot in the temple said that the Buddhist scriptures copied by a woman like me who have not been out of the pavilion are more effective, so for the sake of my father, I don't want to talk about marriage for the time being." ā
A trace of disappointment flashed on Li Sheng's face, but then he looked at Xuan Miao'er with a smile: "It's rare to see a piece of filial piety from Lan'er's sister, then I'll wait for you, I've been waiting for so many years, and I'll wait in the future." ā
Xiao Jin looked at Xuan Miao'er anxiously: "Lan'er, it's rare that your brother Li Sheng is so affectionate, let's go home and discuss this matter with my father and mother before deciding." ā
Xuan Miao'er touched her nose: "Well, I still have to go back to discuss this marriage with my father." She was finally relieved a lot, this Li Sheng didn't have to pester and follow them, otherwise this matter would be extraneous, if she took him, how would she settle him when he left the village?
Li Sheng's afterglow has been observing the two of them, but he has always had a smile on his face: "Yes, yes, you see that I am in a hurry, and my mother also talked about this when I came, and this has to be discussed with my uncle and aunt before deciding." ā
Xiao Jin didn't want to talk about this marriage anymore, but he didn't dare to stir up the topic easily, because he was afraid of saying something wrong, so he had to say something sideways: "Brother Li Xian is knowledgeable and can educate more descendants, which is a great merit." ā
Li Sheng waved his hand: "Brother Hu, don't say that, isn't this also for my livelihood." ā
Xuan Miaoer always felt that something was wrong? First of all, if there is really a marriage contract, he shouldn't say it in front of himself, and the way this person looks at himself, his makeup has turned like this, this man is not bad, if his brain is not lacking strings, it is impossible to fall in love with himself at first sight, if he looks like a person with a strong desire for money, he can understand it, because he may want to get close to himself, and he may go to the capital to live, but this person shows an honest and honest image, which is very contradictory.
Xuan Miao'er asked tentatively: "Why didn't Li Gongzi go to the private school today? This is a trivial matter for our own family, and it is our sin to delay so many children to learn knowledge." ā
Li Sheng suddenly paused, obviously thinking: "This village is so chaotic now, this class is also half a day, and some families don't let their children come to class." ā
This explanation is reasonable, and Xuan Miaoer asked again: "Just now I heard Aunt Wang of the East Courtyard say that my father used to have a classmate in the neighboring village, and he used to bring his children to play, so I guess Li Gongzi also knows Aunt Wang." ā
Li Sheng was obviously a little weak-hearted, and a thin layer of sweat oozed from his forehead, but in order to hide his weakness, he didn't wipe it, but smiled stiffly: "Yes, I've seen it before, I came here many times when I was a child, but it's a pity that we won't come when you move away." ā
Xiao Jin listened to Xuan Miao'er's words, and also realized that it was wrong: "Brother Li Xian is here, let my sister cook a few specialty dishes tonight, let's have a few cups of sorrel." ā
"I'm not strong enough to drink, I get drunk after a little drink, and I have a bedridden mother at home, so I can't come out for too long. Li Sheng looked outside, his face anxious.
Xiao Jin didn't really want to keep him, keeping him in his own home was also a disaster, if this person really came to spy on them, he couldn't stop him from going out, if he didn't go out, then he and Xuan Miao'er would be really dangerous.
So he put on a smiling face: "You see I forgot about this, since my aunt is not in good health, then you have to go back and serve earlier." After speaking, he said to Xuan Miao'er: "Miao'er, hurry up and bring some snacks back to your aunt, we are in a hurry, and we didn't bring any courtesy, this is our rudeness." ā
Li Sheng shirked and refused: "No, no, the two of us will have to move around more in the future, then I'll go back first." As he spoke, he stood up and prepared to go out.
Xiao Jin and Xuan Miaoer also got up to send each other, and Xuan Miaoer also saw what Xiao Jin meant, not to guess this person in person, then send it politely.
The two of them sent Li Sheng out of the door until they returned to the house, and when they entered the house, they quickly asked people to close the windows and doors tightly.
Xuan Miaoer asked Xiao Jin nervously: "Brother Xiao, this person guarantees that it is not right, our neighbor is surnamed Liang, not surnamed Wang, and Aunt Liang didn't mention any close friends of the Hu family, I lied to him at that time, but he didn't seem to know, follow what we said." ā
"yes, I heard that, but there shouldn't be any flaws in our conversation. Xiao Jin sat at the table of the Eight Immortals, holding the teacup in his hand, frowning and thinking.
Xuan Miaoer also carefully recalled everyone's expressions and conversations after Li Sheng's arrival.
"Oops. Xuan Miaoer and Xiao Jin said in unison.
Xuan Miao'er sighed: "I bombed him with lies, but he also used lies, the Hu family has no marriage contract, we are exposed." ā
Xiao Jin slammed the cup on the table: "Fooled, fortunately, we are calm, I guess they won't think that we have seen through them, and there is still time to evacuate." ā
Xuan Miao'er hurriedly asked Qianluo to pack the things she was carrying: "Let's go." ā
"No, now they haven't blocked the village yet, you have to leave quickly, otherwise you won't be able to get out later, I'll stay to attract them first, if they find out that the people are not there for a while, they will definitely chase and kill at all costs, I will stay to buy you time, Miao'er, you go first, and then go to Qianfu, pass the news to the emperor, and let the emperor send someone." Xiao Jin was sober-minded and calm-headed at this time. (To be continued.) )
