Although Qin Hanzhen had heard Zhao Mo say that she was going to enter the palace to ask for marriage, she was still taken aback when the marriage was granted.

Zhao Mo's efficiency is really fast enough, it has only been less than two days, and he has done it!

Niu was very surprised, and after sending off the eunuch who announced the decree, he kept chanting: "Why did you give the marriage so early? I didn't prepare at all, and when the little father-in-law announced the decree, I was stunned like a fool, don't make people laugh, right? The emperor didn't say hello to us in advance, and Guanglu, why didn't he tell us in advance?!"

Qin Bai smiled happily and said: "He told me a long time ago, and he also sent a letter to Brother Ping in advance, and got permission, Geng post and tokens from Brother Ping, so he entered the palace to ask for a decree." This kid is really in a hurry. ”

Niu Shi was surprised and said, "When did Brother Ping get the letter?

Since Qin Ping sent a messenger to Zhao Mo to reply and bring tokens, he naturally would not forget to inform his parents at home. In fact, the messenger returned to Beijing with two letters, one for Zhao Mo and one for Qin Bai. However, Zhao Mo rushed out of the city early in the morning to pick up the messenger, and all he got was his own letter. The messenger entered the city later, entered the Yongjiahou Mansion, and waited until Qin Bai finished attending the banquet in the Chengenhou Mansion and returned to his own house before he saw the letter. Qin Hanzhen got the news of his father from Zhao Mo one step in advance, while Qin Bai knew more details from the eldest son's letter.

When Niu learned about it, he sighed and said: "Guanglu, this kid is really hearted, although I know that he will send a letter to Brother Ping every year, but I really don't know that he even asked Brother Ping in advance about his relatives." He hadn't mentioned a word to us before. This stupid boy, if he told us first, let us write to Brother Ping, Brother Ping would never refuse, and I wouldn't be so surprised. ”

Qin Bai smiled lightly and was silent. This is probably the preciousness of Zhao Mo's child. Of course, he knew that with Qin Bainiu's endorsement, it was impossible for Qin Ping to refuse the family affairs arranged by his parents for his daughter, but he had to rely on himself to gain Qin Ping's appreciation and recognition, and without using any external force, he successfully asked Qin Ping to marry his only beloved daughter to himself. This is enough to see Zhao Mo's sincerity. Qin Ping must have seen it, so he would happily marry his daughter to him.

He said to his wife, "What is there to be surprised? The two children have always been good, and you and I have already known it. ”

Niu smiled: "That's a good thing. She took Qin Hanzhen's hand and looked at her granddaughter carefully from head to toe, seeing that Qin Hanzhen blushed: "Grandmother, what do you think I do?"

Niu said with a smile: "My good sister Sang, now she is a big girl, and she is going to get married, and she can get married in two years." Time flies so fast, think about when you were a child, you ran all over the mountains and fields, and came back from playing all over the mud, where is it like Si Svenwen now?"

Qin Hanzhen's face turned even redder: "Grandmother, who hasn't been a child? It's common to be naughty when you're a child." Don't keep talking about it. As long as I'm talking and acting now enough to be polite!"

Niu laughed, touched Qin Hanzhen's hand, and turned back to her husband and said, "I pondered, Guanglu is three years older than our three girls, he is almost eighteen this year, and it is estimated that he will not be able to wait long." The third girl will only be married in February next year, and it is common for her to marry at the age of fifteen, but her father will end his term of office next year, and he will return to Beijing from Guangzhou to report on his work, so why will he not be able to go home until the summer. If her father can find an envoy in the capital, then why don't she just wait another year? Wait until the third girl turns sixteen before getting married, so that her father can personally send her out of the cabinet. At that time, Guanglu was not yet twenty years old, and he didn't have to wait long. His house in the capital has not yet been completed, so he must be given time to repair the house. ”

Qin Bai thought for a while: "That's fine. It's just that I don't know what will be lacking when Brother Ping comes back next year. ”

Niu sighed: "I don't expect him to be able to soar, I used to just think that my son can have a good future, and it doesn't matter if he stays away from me." But now that I'm older, I don't think the same way. Brother An has already returned home, so Brother Ping should be transferred to a place closer to home. I look forward to seeing them all the time, watching them eat and clothe themselves without being wronged. ”

Qin Bai said: "Brother Ping seems to have some eyebrows, and the emperor will not sit idly by." You don't have to worry about it, just sit back and wait for the news. ”

Niu sighed and didn't speak, turned his head to look at Qin Hanzhen, and smiled again: "Good boy, grandmother will definitely prepare a good dowry for you, and ensure that you will eat and drink spicy food in the future, and you will never be poor!"

Qin Hanzhen smiled: "Grandmother, I am going to marry Cousin Zhao." He is a county king and has a fief, how can he be poor?"

Niu Shi said angrily: "Yo, the eldest girl's family is not ashamed." The will to marry has just come down, and you are so arrogant that you want to marry your cousin Zhao?"

Qin Hanzhen blushed and pursed his lips and smiled: "I'm just telling the truth, why don't I be ashamed?" When she received the decree, she was happy in her heart, and she was at ease about the future, and when she talked to her relatives, she had fewer scruples and could confidently speak her inner thoughts boldly.

Niu Shi smiled and nodded her forehead: "Just say these things at home, if you say it outside, beware of others laughing at you! If Guanglu hears your words, he will be scared away by you!"

Qin Hanzhen snorted lightly, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "He is not so easy to scare away." If he was intimidated by me, it only proved that he didn't know enough about me. That's what he isn't. ”

Niu Shi glanced at her: "What nonsense?"

While he was talking, Mama Tiger came to report, and everyone in the long room came to congratulate him when he heard the news. Niu Shi hurriedly got up to greet him, and whispered to Qin Hanzhen: "Don't talk nonsense in front of the people in the long room, you know?!" Qin Hanzhen nodded knowingly.

Almost all the owners of the long house came, and everyone got the news of the marriage, and rushed to congratulate Qin Hanzhen, as well as Qin Bai and Niu's husband and wife. Most people have been mentally prepared for this family business, but not many people feel that there is a problem, at most a few people feel that the holy decree came suddenly.

Yao's heart was a little uncomfortable. Although she knew that the king of Suning County was in love with Qin Hanzhen, but now that her daughter Qin Jinhua's marriage is undecided, her cousin Qin Hanzhen has become the future princess of Suning County, and her cousin Lu Yueniang is about to marry into the Yunyang Marquis Mansion as the wife of the prince. Compared with these two, Qin Jinhua became more and more dim. The Tang family of Dali Temple was originally a good family, but compared with the Hou Mansion and the Wangfu, it was completely compared. The Yao family is not reconciled, how much worse is her daughter than others? Obviously, she has been raised with gold and dignity since she was a child, so why should she be compared to her cousin and cousin? In the future, if Qin Jinhua really marries Tang Han, a talented woman, and accompanies Tang Han step by step in the scientific examination, is she admitted to the Jinshi examination, and assigned to be an official, how many years will it take for her to have a fate? When she meets Qin Hanzhen, the princess of the county, and Lu Yueniang, the wife of the prince, does she also have to pay a big salute to them?

Yao felt that his chest was stuffy and a little out of breath, so he simply found a chair and sat down.

Although her heart was full of envy, jealousy, and hatred, she still did not forget to put a smile on her face: "I am really overjoyed! Third uncle and third aunt, I have long said that the third girl is a blessed person, but the third uncle and third aunt just don't believe it. The three girls can marry him, it is really a match made in heaven. In the future, the three girls will be the princess of the dignified county, and they can't be more decent!"

These are all good words, what else can Qin Bai, Niu Shi and Qin Hanzhen say? The first two smiled and nodded in thanks, while the latter smiled a little shyly and lowered his head.

Then Yao's tone changed, and he sighed: "I really didn't expect the three girls to settle down so quickly." Her sister's marriage hasn't even been mentioned yet! Unexpectedly, the three sisters were the three girls who took the lead over the sisters in front. ”

Qin Hanzhen narrowed his eyes. Why did she think Yao's words were a little strange?

Niu may have noticed it, so he replied: "They are all separated, where do you need to abide by the old rules, you have to let the girl in front of you get married, so that you can tell the daughters in the back? Could it be that if the Jinyi girl has not been married for a day, can't you say kiss to the Jinhua girl?

Qin Jinyi is still "recuperating", and it is still unknown whether she will have the opportunity to marry in the future. How could the Yao family let their daughter delay marrying in order to abide by some old rules of order? She choked up for a moment, laughed dryly, as if to cover up, and turned to ask about the wedding date. However, Niu said that these things were decided by the people of the Zongren Mansion and the Internal Affairs Office, and they did not know about it.

Yao couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's a pity that the fifth brother and sister are pregnant and have difficulty moving, and the fourth uncle didn't continue to ...... Alas, such a big happy event, you can't expect the stewards to do everything, right? Third aunt, don't blame your niece and daughter-in-law for talking too much. The nephew and daughter-in-law actually feel that after so many years, it is time for the fourth uncle to renew his wife's room. Even if he doesn't think about himself, he has to think about the three girls! The three girls have no mother since they were young, and their father is not around, so they can only rely on their grandfather and grandmother. But the third aunt and the third uncle are not young anymore, and in the future, the three girls will be in the in-law's house, and they still have to rely on their mother's brothers to support them. If the fourth uncle doesn't continue the strings for a day, where can the third girl have brothers? No matter how good the cousins are, they can't compare with their own brothers!"

Niu Shi changed his sitting posture a little uncomfortably: "What you say does make sense. I have long wanted to remarry Brother Ping'er to a daughter-in-law, but he refused, and I couldn't force him to get married, so I could only take one step at a time.

Yao Shi hurriedly said: "The third aunt, the fourth uncle is far away in Guangzhou, and there is no way to force him to remarry for a while." Why don't we put this matter down for the first time, and wait until he returns to the capital after his term of office expires?" Seeing Niu's nod, she hurriedly said, "The wedding of the clan is not quite the same as our ordinary family's, and there are many rules. What's more, Guanglu is the king of the county again, his identity is more noble, and the rules are stricter. I thought that if I waited until the fourth uncle remarried, and then let the new fourth brother and sister help manage the marriage of the third girl, I was afraid that it would be too late. It's a must, we have to prepare first, I'll help the third aunt to take care of all kinds of things, and when the fourth brother and sister enter the door, I'll hand over the rest to her?"

Niu was silent. Qin Hanzhen moved his body, and his expression was a little uncomfortable.

After so many years of delay, Qin Ping's continuation issue was once again put on the table.
