Xu Zheng was full of entanglement. He carried in his bosom the letter given by the tea lady, heavier than a piece of iron, and hotter than coals. But he could only hold it, and he couldn't just throw it away.

He actually knew that his family was a little unkind, and his grandfather, father, and mother were all looking forward to marrying a daughter of the Qin family. The Xu family has been declining in recent years, and it is hoped that he, the eldest grandson, can revive the lintel, and if he can marry back to a capable wife, he will be able to get twice the result with half the effort. And the Qin family is the most promising high-ranking family of the Xu family. As the grandson of the Xu family, Xu Zheng has known that he has the hope of the whole family since he was a child, and he does not reject the arrangement of his family.

But the grandmother was not happy, and she hoped that her grandson would marry the daughter of a scholarly family for generations, just like her mother's family. At that time, she failed to marry her niece and nephew for her two sons, and she always felt regretful in her heart, so she hoped that her grandson could realize her dream. Over the years, just because the old lady insisted on her own opinion, Xu Zheng's family affairs have not been decided, and even the family affairs of the eldest sister Xu Xiu have not been decided. Because my grandmother, Mrs. Xu, said that if you want the Xu and Qin families to marry again, let Xu Xiu marry Qin Jian, it is the same. Although the rest of the Xu family was depressed, they didn't dare to really let Xu Xiu go early and completely cut off this possibility. Because the second daughter Xu Lan is a concubine, if she is allowed to marry the Qin family, the weight is far from enough.

However, the second room still had to come to join in the fun, and repeatedly said that Xu Zheng was older than several girls in the Qin family, and Xu Rong was more suitable, and he also wanted to marry the daughter of the Qin family as his granddaughter-in-law.

The family can't work together, how can they decisively set up family affairs for Xu Zheng? In addition, several elders have spoken outside intentionally or unintentionally, and the cousin of the Qin family has tried to show her daughter to other families several times, but she has not been able to see each other. It is normal for the cousin of the Qin family to complain. Even Xu Zheng himself also felt very sorry for Qin Er's cousin, and he didn't have the face to see her.

Today, since Qin's second cousin has already handed over a letter, inviting him to meet and make it clear, Xu Zheng is ashamed, and he must hold on to this trip. It's time for him to give his cousin an explanation.

However, when he walked into the second door, Xu Zheng began to struggle again. Lonely men and widows meet in private, after all, it is still not polite. What if it was known? Not only would it be bad for Qin Er's cousin's reputation, but it would also violate the etiquette and morality that he had always adhered to. Xu Zheng felt uncomfortable all the way through, and always felt as if someone was staring at him. Looking back, in addition to the subordinates who were guarding all over the Chengenhou Mansion, only Qin Xun's long-term Zhu Lou was standing in the front yard. Xu Zheng felt that he was really too careful, how could those subordinates know that he was going to see Qin Jinhua? But it was in the outer courtyard, and it was normal for him to move around. Now that I have entered the second gate, if I meet a girl and ask myself where I am going, how do I answer?

It was at this tangled moment that Xu Zheng met the oncoming Zhao Mo. He panicked for a moment, and finally calmed down, and asked with a reluctant smile: "Is the county prince planning to go back to Kurong Hall?"

As soon as Zhao Mo looked at his expression, he guessed that he was fooled and was going to go to Suxinzhai, so he smiled and said: "Yes, the third cousin of the Qin family invited me to Songfeng Hall to talk, saying that he wanted to ask me to buy a few ancient paintings from Liulichang, I thought it was just a trivial matter, so I agreed." It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, so I just called Brother Jian to go shopping with me today, I don't want him to be entangled by his sisters, and when he is talking, I will go back and wait first. Brother Xu, where are you going? Do you want to go to Songfeng Hall? Then you can help me urge Brother Jian. He has to come back in the evening for the family feast, and it is not early, so we have to go and return quickly. ”

How could Xu Zheng go to Songfeng Hall? He could only laugh dryly: "No, I'...... I don't go to Shofudo. ”

Zhao Mo said "oh": "I still want to ask you to give you a word." In fact, Qin San's cousin originally asked me to wait in Songfeng Hall, saying that their brother and sister were just chatting a few words, and Brother Jian was just carrying a few gadgets, so I didn't need to avoid going out. It's just that I think that now that we are all grown up, we can't compare to when we were children, there is a difference between men and women, and we always have to avoid suspicion. Although everyone is a relative, they have often laughed and played together since childhood, and they have always been close, and they do not have evil thoughts in their hearts. But there are many people, there are so many people in the family, and some people talk about it in a sentence and a half, and if they accumulate a lot, it is enough to ruin a person's reputation, so it is better to avoid it yourself than to affect the reputation of the girls. ”

Xu Zheng was in awe when he heard this: "The prince of the county is really a gentleman of etiquette. I only feel that Zhao Mo's temperament is very similar to him, and he is really a good friend.

He thought that he was about to go to the girl's appointment, if he was seen by his subordinates and talked about it, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of Qin Er's cousin? Qin's second cousin was young, so it was inevitable that she would be negligent. But now that he is an adult and has a reputation, he should think more thoughtfully. Because of the Xu family, Qin's second cousin has been wronged, and he can't hurt her anymore.

Xu Zheng hesitated for a moment, and said to Zhao Mo in a hesitant manner: "Lord Jun, I have a difficult matter...... vaguely said that he made Qin's second cousin angry, Qin's second cousin asked him to meet him, and asked him to compensate for it, but the agreed location was in the empty courtyard of the inner house, and he felt that it was inappropriate, but it was not good not to compensate for this gift......

Zhao Mo showed a comprehensible expression: "I see, I understand." Brother Xu is worried that someone will bump into you meeting in private, and if you can't say it clearly, it will affect the reputation of Second Miss Qin, right? Then how about me walking with you? I didn't show up, I just stayed far behind, just guarded at the gate of the courtyard, and if I saw someone coming, I could also make a warning. ”

Xu Zheng was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed to him and made a big salute: "Thank you, the prince of the county!"

Zhao Mo hurriedly smiled and hugged him: "You don't have to be so polite, the second cousin of the Qin family is also my cousin, and she is not an outsider." He tilted his head, his face puzzled, "But when did you meet her?" I just met her in Songfeng Hall, and I didn't hear her talk about it. She was still chatting happily with a few sisters, not like she was angry. Didn't you remember the time?"

Xu Zheng took out the letter from his arms, read it again, and confirmed that the time and place were not mistaken. Zhao Mo pretended to be concerned, walked to his side and glanced at the letter a few times, then asked suspiciously: "This is a letter written by Qin's second cousin to Brother Xu? Strange, I saw her calligraphy homework at my uncle and grandfather a few days ago, her handwriting doesn't seem to be like this, right?"

Xu Zheng was stunned: "Really?" He couldn't help but read the letter again, and his heart was suspicious. When he was a child, he often came to the Chengenhou Mansion, and he remembered that Qin Jinhua's handwriting was almost like this at that time. Later, because of the return of the third room, he refused to marry, and his grandfather proposed the idea of letting him marry Qin Jinhua, he felt embarrassed, and he had to concentrate on studying, so he came less. He hadn't paid attention to Qin Jinhua's handwriting for a long time, so he could only follow the impressions he had when he was a child.

However, although Qin Jinhua's homework is not excellent, he will not practice calligraphy for four or five years, and he has not grown, right?

Just when Xu Zheng finally became suspicious, Zhao Mo urged him casually: "Are you leaving?" I'm not very familiar with the housing layout here, why don't you lead the way with Brother Xu in front?"

Xu Zheng hesitantly took Zhao Mo to Su Xinzhai. Qin Jian, Qin Hanzhen, Qin Jinhua, and Qin Jinchun dared to walk out of the East Piercing Hall at this time, and saw them turn into the road leading to Su Xinzhai from a distance.

Qin Jinchun secretly wiped his sweat: "It seems that the prince of the county has stabilized the eldest prince Xu, I don't know what he will do next?"

Qin Hanzhen guessed: "He estimated that he would let Xu Zheng in, and he would be behind him, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he rushed over and ruined the big sister's game." Now that Xu Zheng invited him to go with him, the eldest sister couldn't suspect him afterwards. Why don't we also find an excuse, claiming that we saw him, so we followed, and then bumped into the big sister with Xu Zheng?"

Qin Jian nodded: "This is indeed more stable than we thought before. ”

Qin Jinhua whispered: "Shadow, Xia and Liuhui don't know that Cousin Zhao is intervening, they will be startled for a while." There is also the eldest sister, she should have been hiding in the house of Su Xinzhai now, don't let her see Cousin Zhao enter the yard. ”

Qin Hanzhen shook his head: "Cousin Zhao knows what the situation is, so he won't make such a low-level mistake." ”

Facts have proved that Zhao Mo did not live up to Qin Hanzhen's confidence in him. He stopped when he walked to the door of Su Xinzhai, didn't say a word, only signaled Xu Zheng to go in with his eyes and movements, and hid behind the door panel of the courtyard door. Xu Zheng smiled dumbly, but his mood was much more relaxed, he lifted the hem of his clothes and walked directly to the main room. The letter clearly stated that Qin Jinhua would go to the main room to meet him.

Su Xinzhai was originally the residence of the Xue family in the second room, and no one has lived in it since the second room moved out. After a few years of emptying, there should have been dust everywhere, but now it has been simply cleaned, the tables, chairs, and beds are all clean, tea sets and tea are prepared on the table, and the fire wall has also burned, making the house warm.

Xu Zheng remembered the words in the letter and closed the door so that people passing by outside would not find out that there were people in the house. Then he sat down at the table, and felt that the room seemed to be a little hotter. However, thinking that Qin Jinhua has always been delicate, and it is common for the girl to roast the house warmer, he didn't feel strange.

He waited in the house for a long time, but he didn't see Qin Jinhua appear, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He got up and went to the window to look out, but he really didn't see anyone, not even Zhao Mo, he must have been hiding behind the door. He sighed, and sat down at the table again, only to feel that the room was getting hotter. He wanted to open the door, and thought of Qin Jinhua's instructions in the letter, so he still pressed it, poured a cup of tea casually, and took a sip. The tea is warm and a little sweet, and I don't know what I put in, but it tastes good and quenches my thirst. He couldn't help but want to take two more sips, but when he thought that his second cousin had not arrived for a long time, he put down the cup anxiously and wanted to go to the courtyard gate to have a look.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he got up, he felt a little dizzy in his brain, his body shook, and he sat down on the stool again, and his hand didn't pay attention for a moment, and swept the cup to the ground, making a crisp cracking sound.

What's wrong with him?

There was a creak behind him, but it was someone coming in from the back room, and the footsteps were getting closer. Xu Zheng stiffened his head and turned around to look, vaguely recognizing that this was Qin Jinyi in the second room of the Qin family. How could she be here?!

Qin Jinyi blushed with shame, walked up to Xu Zheng, bowed softly, and said delicately: "Cousin Xu, my cousin has admired you for a long time, and I specially asked you to come ......today" Before he finished speaking, the door was suddenly knocked open, and Zhao Mo walked in with a grin, still shouting: "Brother Xu, you are mistaken, Second Cousin Qin didn't ask you out!"

Qin Jian, Qin Jinhua, Qin Hanzhen and Qin Jinchun all followed him, standing in the courtyard, looking into the house with different expressions.

Xu Zheng's mind was confused: "Huh?"

Qin Jinyi was stunned, and before he even finished the ceremony, he was twisting out a graceful figure in a pretentious manner, when he was startled by the situation in front of him, his feet were unstable, he fell to the ground, and twisted his waist.
