After getting off work, Chu Minglan went to the courtyard with Chen Xiuqiao, but compared with yesterday, she was a little apprehensive today.

She asked Chen Xiuqiao what was going on today, but Chen Xiuqiao was not very clear, obviously this meal was arranged by Xu Tianyu alone, I don't know if Yu Dazhuang was involved.

Because of some kind of bad conjecture, Chu Minglan has not relaxed her vigilance, although since entering the door, Xu Tianyu has been busy cooking, and he can't see anything abnormal.

Soon Yu Dazhuang also returned to the courtyard and greeted Chu Minglan and Chen Xiuqiao, but Chu Minglan actually ignored him, which made him very confused, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little unnatural.

And his unnaturalness infected Chu Minglan again, making the guess in her heart more clear, and she also became unnatural. Especially when Xu Tianyu poured a glass of wine for each of them, the corners of Chu Minglan's mouth twitched even more, and she still wanted to pour wine?

In such a strange atmosphere, Xu Tianyu raised his wine glass and officially announced that dinner had begun.

"Before eating, let's have a drink, come on, bring the glass. Xu Tianyu looked quite happy, raised the wine glass from afar, and then raised his head and drank it all.

Chen Xiuqiao glanced at him suspiciously, not understanding what he was happy about, but he also took a sip of the wine glass in agreement, and suddenly a touch of blush rose on his pretty face.

Yu Dazhuang also drank it all dryly, but he looked sullen, and he was still wondering why Chu Minglan hadn't talked to him just now.

But Chu Minglan didn't move, she lowered her head, bit her lip, her face was flushed, and she didn't drink more red than those who did.

Xu Tianyu put down the wine glass and beckoned everyone to eat, Chu Minglan picked up the chopsticks and barely took a bite of the dish, the original fragrant and delicious dishes didn't seem to be so attractive at this time.

"Inviting everyone to dinner today, in fact, there is another purpose, that is, to solve the matter of Minglan and Da Zhuang. After eating for a while, Xu Tianyu put down his chopsticks and said.

Chu Minglan's body tensed up suddenly, one hand clenched the chopsticks, but the other hand didn't know where to put it, she thought to herself, is it finally here?

Yu Dazhuang's breathing was also tight, he didn't think about it in that direction, he was just nervous because of Xu Tianyu's words.

"I don't think this matter can be delayed any longer, you two are not small, so you should do what needs to be done. Xu Tianyu didn't seem to notice the reaction of the two, and said to himself. In fact, among the four people, he is the youngest, but he is the most old-fashioned when he speaks.

Among these people, I am afraid that only Chen Xiuqiao can understand what Xu Tianyu is talking about, because they discussed this matter some time ago, so when Chu Minglan cast a look of help, she smiled and gave an encouraging look back.

And Chu Minglan's heart was cold, it's over, I should know Sister Xiuqiao's reaction, they really colluded, and Chu Minglan was almost angry at this moment.

She first glared at Yu Dazhuang fiercely, and when she saw that he lowered his head and didn't say anything, he looked obedient, and felt even more aggrieved in her heart.

Seeing that Xu Tianyu wanted to say something again, Chu Minglan suddenly yelled, "No!"

Because of her excitement, her voice was a little deformed, Xu Tianyu and the three of them all looked at her in amazement, and Yu Dazhuang looked even more lost, slightly dazed.

Chu Minglan came back to her senses, covered her mouth violently, and secretly screamed in her heart, I am afraid that Da Zhuang has misunderstood. But how can she let others interfere in such a thing, it is impossible if she has no grievances in her heart.

She glanced at Yu Dazhuang secretly, and said in a small voice, "I didn't mean it...... No, I just don't want ...... Someone else meddled. ”

Xu Tianyu frowned, and after the initial shock, he patiently persuaded, "I know that you are in free love, but you also have to go through the procedures, if we propose marriage on behalf of Da Zhuang, it should be better, right?"

"Mention ...... Propose?" Chu Minglan's eyes widened suddenly, and she stammered, "What you are talking about is proposing?"

Xu Tianyu spread his hands, "Otherwise, what do you think?"

"I ...... I ...... "Chu Minglan didn't say anything for a long time, but tears were already rolling in her eyes, it turned out that she had been misunderstood, it turned out that what Xu Tianyu said about doing the matter between her and Yu Dazhuang meant proposing!"

The original worry disappeared all of a sudden, tears of joy flowed out of the corners of her eyes, she liked Yu Dazhuang, but she was also worried that her family would not agree.

If Xu Tianyu can really propose marriage on behalf of Yu Dazhuang, according to Xu Tianyu's weight in her grandfather's heart, there is no doubt that the success rate will increase greatly.

"Propose, yes. Chu Minglan cried with pear blossoms and rain, picked up the wine glass and poured it down.

This time she poured too hard, she was choked, coughed violently, Yu Dazhuang hurriedly and thoughtfully helped her hammer her back, her eyes were distressed and warm.

After a period of scramble, Xu Tianyu and Chen Xiuqiao glanced at each other, and smiled helplessly, these two people.

Xu Tianyu was still very thoughtful about the matter of proposing, free love was not the mainstream in that era after all, whether it was a rich family or an ordinary family, the importance of matchmakers was self-evident.

The meal was finished in crying and laughing, what Chu Minglan imagined did not happen, she still lived in the West House with Chen Xiuqiao at night, and Xu Tianyu was forced to squeeze in a room with Yu Dazhuang.

Later, because she was happy and drank more, Chu Minglan was lying on the bed at the moment, and a sense of dizziness surrounded her. Chen Xiuqiao washed a towel and wiped her face for her, then folded it into a square and put it on her head.

Looking at the little face smiling at the ceiling under the towel, Chen Xiuqiao couldn't help but sigh, she remembered that when she and Xiaoyu first decided to be together, they encountered greater resistance than this pair, right?

Let's hope they can stay the course.

After settling Chu Minglan, Chen Xiuqiao also took off her coat and lay on the bed, she didn't drink much, but her face was a little flushed, no more than Chu Minglan's pretty face at the moment was like a fever.

Reaching out to cover her and herself with a blanket, Chen Xiuqiao couldn't help complaining, "Minglan hurts your body by drinking so much, don't do this in the future." ”

Chu Minglan looked at the ceiling in a daze, and replied for a long time, "Sister Xiuqiao, I'm happy, do you think that I can do it with Da Zhuang......? What if you don't agree?"

She turned her head to look at Chen Xiuqiao's side face, and couldn't help but stretch out her hands to hug Chen Xiuqiao's arm, she didn't care if the towel rolled down to the bed, and leaned her little head on Chen Xiuqiao's shoulder, like a little sheep begging for comfort.

Chen Xiuqiao smiled and stroked her soft hair, cheered her up, "No, you will definitely be able to be together, isn't there me and Xu Tianyu behind you to support you?"

Chu Minglan's buzzing voice came, "I didn't say what if, if grandpa really disagrees in the end, then what should I do." ”

After the initial joy, the girl began to suffer from gains and losses, which is understandable, and the closer she got to success, the more she was afraid of falling short.

Chen Xiuqiao didn't know how to answer her question, thought for a while, and suddenly lowered her head and whispered in her ear, "Minglan, do you have a ...... with Da Zhuang?" What's that?"

"What's that?"

Chu Minglan raised her dizzy head, looked at the pretty face close at hand with big eyes, and didn't react to what Chen Xiuqiao said for a while.

Oops, Chen Xiuqiao glared at Chu Minglan with disgust, but her face turned even redder, it was the first time she had talked to other women about such a thing, and there must be shyness.

"It's a matter of men and women. Chen Xiuqiao twisted her body, her voice was as delicate as a lan.

Chu Minglan reacted instantly, immediately buried her head in Chen Xiuqiao's arm, and said shyly, "Sister, we don't have it, Da Zhuang...... Da Zhuang said that he would wait until the time of marriage. ”

"Hehe, you guys. Chen Xiuqiao laughed at her, but also sighed, "If you have already cooked raw rice, it will be simpler, but since you can hold on, of course it is best after marriage." ”

Chu Minglan hummed slightly, then raised her head, bit her lip and asked shyly, "Sister, what are men and women like?"

Unexpectedly, she suddenly asked such a question, Chen Xiuqiao's body stiffened, her face was a little embarrassed, she was conservative, although she was already very familiar with Chu Minglan and was a sister, after all, she had never discussed such a thing.

I saw that Chu Minglan's expression suddenly dimmed, and there were tears in her eyes that were faintly accumulating, and she muttered, "My mother died early, and no one told me this, sister, do you think I'm an immodest woman?"

After listening to Chu Minglan's words, the embarrassment on Chen Xiuqiao's face turned into tenderness, and she touched her head with pity, leaned over her ear, and muttered in a low voice.

It was late at night, and in the quiet courtyard, in the bedroom of the West House, the bodies of the two girls were close together, one speaking and the other listening, but both of them had the same intoxicating flush on their faces.

Time went on, and when the dinner at Xu Tianyu's house was going on, there was also a dinner party going on in the Chu family's old house.

All kinds of exquisite dishes are placed on the table, and with the financial resources of the Chu family, the food is naturally superior, but no one uses chopsticks at this time.

The old man Chu sat on the main seat, and his eldest son Chu Xiangguo, second son Chu Ningguo, grandson Chu Zishi, and Chu Ningguo's daughter were also seated at the same table.

This should be a family party, but I don't know why Chu Minglan was not notified to participate, not only did no one notify her, but in the seat where she often sits, there is a young man with glasses who looks very sven at the moment.
