Chapter 252: Requirements

After crossing the long covered bridge outside Huanyi Pavilion, crossing the lake, and then walking southeast along the cool path paved with cobblestones shaded by trees, I walked out of the Yuedong Gate and arrived at the courtyard where Xu Chenglin lived. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This side belongs to the category of the outer courtyard, and it is also different from the inner courtyard where the female dependents live, the courtyard is wide and sparse, the green brick paving, there is no name, and there is no special decoration, only two rows of privet trees are planted in the courtyard, which looks a little green.

"Brother Xu, as the son of Houfu, is too simple. Liang Sixian looked at Xu Chenglin's wide courtyard and couldn't help but sigh.

Bai Chenghuan blinked: "Yes, my brother is not only simple, but also careful, cares about his family, and keeps himself clean...... There are so many advantages!"

In fact, she wanted to say that who was my sister-in-law was blessed, but when it came to her lips, thinking about her current identity, was it inappropriate.

Xu Chenglin, as the prince of Houfu, although he is in the rich and splendid township, but because he is the only son-in-law, and he was crowned the prince early, Weibei Hou has been very strict with him since he was a child, for fear that he will become a gentleman in Beijing, and all arrogant habits are not allowed.

Fortunately, Xu Chenglin is also angry, studying and practicing martial arts all kinds of hard work, and he is stable and self-reliant, and now he has no arrogance that he used to reject people thousands of miles away, and he is even more good.

Liang Sixian's face turned white.

Such a good Brother Xu, so many people are worried about it...... In the past, he only had that An Zhulin in his heart, but in the future, will he still not be able to see himself?

Liang Sixian couldn't help but be a little frustrated, Bai Chenghuan didn't know where Liang Sixian's sudden change came from, and hesitated if he guessed wrong?

If she had been in the past, she would have screwed Liang Sixian to ask for clarification, but now, if she talks about it in a shallow way, this kind of thing, no matter how hearty Sixian is, she will not tell her the truth.

It's just that, let Sixian and his brother meet, and he will have a bottom in his heart.

The little maid on duty under the corridor saw the two young ladies with the maids walking over with the scorching sun, they were full of surprise, and hurriedly greeted them: "I have seen Miss Bai, Miss Liang!

"Is my brother here? I've got some good melons, and I'll send two to my brother." ”

Bai Cheng said with a smile, and the water chestnut behind him hurriedly stepped forward, and there were two oval white melons on the tray in his hand.

The little girl already had a smile on his face, but he didn't let him go immediately: "The prince is in the study, Miss Biao ...... just now"

Before he finished his sentence, he heard a noise in the study of the West Chamber, and Bai Chenghuan saw a maid with a delicate face standing at the door of the West Chamber, which was the big maid Agarwood beside his cousin Shi Wanrou.

Bai Chenghuan and Liang Sixian walked to the window of the West Chamber, waved their hands at the little guy on the side and the panicked Agarwood and ordered them not to make a sound, so they listened carefully.

In the study, Shi Wanrou was sparkling like she had encountered the explosives of Mars.

"Xu Chenglin, what do you mean? Don't play stupid with me! I'm telling you this to tell you that we don't like each other, this thing will never come to pass, and if your aunt asks you, you will refuse, saying that you don't like me, hate me, and that's it! You have to swear to me that you will never agree to this matter!"

Dressed in a dark green gauze shirt, Xu Chenglin, who was standing behind the bookcase, understood what Shi Wanrou meant.

Shi Wanrou came over angrily, and asked him to swear without saying a word that he would never marry her, he was inexplicable, so he asked what happened, but was angrily reprimanded by Shi Wanrou for pretending to be stupid.

He knew that since he returned to Beijing, there had been inquiries about family affairs, but he had never heard his mother reveal that he wanted to marry his uncle's family.

I didn't see it before, but this cousin of my uncle's family had such an impatient temperament.

Xu Chenglin put down the pen in his hand, turned the bookcase and stood in front of Shi Wanrou, his two long eyebrows slightly frowned: "Cousin, did you misunderstand something?" I've never heard my mother talk about the plan to make a bunch of you and me, I know what you think, we have known each other since childhood, only brother and sister friendship, nothing else, if my uncle and aunt have this meaning, you might as well say it directly, I will naturally tell my mother the truth, you rushed over like this to ask me to swear something, if it is known, even if nothing will be reported. Go back, I know about it. ”

Although Shi Wanrou has been pestle in front of her mother and aunt, she can't follow her all the time, the aunt and sister-in-law used the excuse of going to the Buddha Hall, and easily got rid of her.

At this time, Xu Chenglin personally said that he didn't mean that to her, and she was greatly relieved, but Xu Chenglin's kind persuasion became a full accusation and ridicule in her ears, but she didn't want to give a guarantee:

"No, you have to swear that I'm going back, who knows if you'll go back on your wordβ€”"

Speaking of this, Shi Wanrou's eyes rolled, and she simply took an inch: "Besides, you are a man, you are dissatisfied with the marriage arranged by your aunt, and no one accuses you of anything, but I am a woman, if I quarrel with my parents because of family affairs, what will others think of me? So this matter, I can't quarrel with my family, as long as my aunt talks about it, you insist that you don't agree!"

Shi Wanrou's previous words Xu Chenglin still felt nothing, and even praised his courage, but the latter words made Xu Chenglin unhappy.

It turned out that Shi Wanrou not only wanted him to refuse, but also wanted him to bear the blame.

If the aunt and mother discussed their family affairs, Shi Wanrou did not say anything against it, and acquiesced and let him fight against his mother alone, then in the eyes of his parents, he would become an unfilial son, and in the eyes of his uncle and aunt, he would become a person who didn't know what to do, brushed their face, and let down their hearts, and the two families might have any quarrel because of this.

In fact, for him, he has passed the age of that young man's wife, it doesn't matter who is his wife, whether it is Shi Wanrou or someone else, as long as his parents and Cheng Huan think it is good, it is all right, there is no need to fall out with his parents and uncles and aunts for a family matter.

And Shi Wanrou's meaning is that she doesn't like him, but she doesn't want to bear the reputation of disobeying her parents, so she wants him to take the initiative to refuse this family business and carry this pot.

Such a request really didn't benefit him at all, and Shi Wanrou got what she wanted, but she didn't have to damage her reputation at all.

It is said that women have a lot of hearts, and it seems that they are really right.

Xu Chenglin didn't care about his cousin's selfishness in his heart, but he thought about how much she was a woman, a woman was no better than a man, she was more famous than a man, and she was his own cousin, and she was about to nod her head in agreement, but a crisp reprimand suddenly came from outside the window:

"Miss Shi is really calculating! I have no rules, but I want others to carry this bad reputation for you, why do you ask Brother Xu to swear to you so much?!"
