Mr. Ning explained: "Lord Wang also came to ask for your consent before going to ask for marriage. He respects you so much, how can he be the same as Cheng Jinghao. ”

Xu Wanzhen was puzzled, and Mr. Ning told Wang Leyu about coming to see the two of them, and said: "On the second day, he went to Tu's house, and asked Mrs. Tu for consent, and only today did he raise the bride price to get hired." ”

Wang Leyu has done such a thoughtful job, but Tu Manfen is still worried, and Xu Wanzhen doesn't know how to persuade him.

After thinking about it, Xu Wanzhen asked, "Do you think he is too anxious?"

Generally speaking, from the exchange of Geng posts to the next hire, the time difference between will be more than half a month. It's just that the bride price is quite complicated to prepare, and some things are not available immediately. For example, a pair of live geese.

The shorter the time, the more rushed it seems, and the bride price is not so well prepared.

Hearing her ask, Tu Manfen's eyes suddenly widened and she nodded again and again. She felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell. always felt that with Wang Leyu's meticulous personality, doing such a hasty thing could only show that he didn't pay enough attention to it.

"Silly boy. Mr. Ning couldn't laugh or cry, it turned out that she was worried about this.

"What's so difficult about this?" Xu Wanzhen called Qingluo and told her to send Wang Leyu to the Tu family to inquire about the bride price.

Finally sorted out his thoughts, Tu Manfen also breathed a sigh of relief, and his face was a little impressive. She was thin-skinned, and she only felt that she had lost a big ugly face in front of Mr. Ning and Xu Wanzhen, and she was so ashamed that she couldn't raise her head.

Her mind was a little troubled by the gains and losses.

On the one hand, I feel that Wang Leyu treats her seriously and is a good man worthy of trust. But on the other hand, she was a little ashamed of herself, felt unworthy of him, and was worried that the two would become resentful couples after they got married.

Her self-esteem has been trampled on by Cheng Jinghao once, making her sink into the dust.

If, Wang Leyu will do the same to her in the future. Tu Manfen didn't know if she could withstand this kind of blow. Rather than having such unpredictable consequences, it is better to maintain the status quo.

Tu Manfen's mind turned a thousand times, and he couldn't hold it or put it down, and the people on the side were in a hurry.

Mr. Ning has already told her a lot. But whether she can listen to it or not, whether she wants to make sense or not, is her own business.

With Xu Wanzhen here, she was no longer worried, got up and said, "I'm going to enter the palace as soon as I go." If Wanzhen is fine, she will wait here for me to come back. ”

Xu Wanzhen smiled: "Sir, just go." ”

Tu Manfen's heart knot, perhaps no one can open it. Only after getting married, relying on the accumulated time, can she believe in marriage again.

She stayed, talking to her, telling her not to think wildly while waiting for the results.

"That's right, Cousin Manfinn. When Lord Wang is hired, will you go back to the academy to live?" When the time comes, Wang Leyu will not come to Mr. Ning's mansion to greet his relatives.

Tu Manfen's eyes were hesitant, and he said in a low voice: "I actually like the life I have now. ”

She took a breath, looked up and said, "Every day has something to do. Looking at the little harvest in the workshop, I heard Mr. Ning say that the store has developed a new soup. All of this keeps me from thinking nonsense. ”

"I feel like I'm having a fulfilling life right now. Thinking of the days when I was in the boudoir before, I even secretly jealous of you, and I felt that I was ridiculous at that time. ”

"Also, when I was at Cheng's house. What the concubines are scrambling for is nothing more than the decency in front of the old lady, or whose son has won the praise of the old marquis. ”

"These flies are dogs, and the parents are short. I used to be very concerned, but now I'm scared to fall into it. ”

Tu Manfen let out a long breath, I don't know if Xu Wanzhen can understand what she said.

"Cousin Wanzhen, do you think I'm a little ridiculous?"

Xu Wanzhen shook her head, soothed her hand, and said, "I believe that Lord Wang is different, he is the concubine of the Wang family, but he has broken off contact over the years, and he is the only one living alone in Beijing." ”

"After you married him, there were no concubines and no in-laws. Just the two of you, where did you come from?"

"Besides, even if you become a parent, you won't delay what you are doing. "In modern times, there are more working women, but in this era, everyone is used to being male and female.

Tu Manfen was taken aback and asked, "Is it really possible?" In her opinion, once you get married, you can't show your head again.

"He loves you so much, and your request is not too much, what's not to do?" Xu Wanzhen smiled encouragingly and said, "You can say all the doubts in your heart." ”

"If you don't say it, just keep it in your heart, won't Lord Wang be unable to guess it? No matter how careful he is, he is only a man. ”

The two of them were talking carefully in the room, and the city of Luoyang outside was particularly lively.

Starting from the end gate, passing through Tianjin Bridge, Dingdingmen Street, Dingdingmen, and Zheliu Pavilion, this long central axis is now covered with a thick red carpet.

On both sides of the red carpet are palace guards with swords. It is a Yulin forbidden army selected by Wu Sheng, and it is first-class from loyalty to skill.

Behind Jin Wuwei, there were people in the capital who came to see the excitement. The second floor of the restaurant and tea shop on both sides is the most sought-after seat, and it has long been full.

People craned their necks and waited for the emperor to appear with excitement on their faces.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

The crowd surged, and Emperor Qinglong's guard of honor set off from Duanmen, passed Tianjin Bridge, and walked to Dingdingmen Street.

Emperor Qinglong sat in the jade chariot covered with cyan chariot, and the golden cloud leaves with gold hanging clouds drooped around him. The upper curtain is made of two layers of green satin and embroidered with a golden cloud dragon.

It is winter, and the three sides of the jade chariot are covered with green felt curtains to block the cold wind, and the front is hung with plump and round pearl curtains. Let the people and ministers see the emperor's majesty through the bead curtain.

The cloud dragon throne in the chariot has two layers of embellishing plates, the top is painted with colorful clouds, the lower part is painted with gold clouds, and it is surrounded by vermilion columns. Emperor Qinglong sat on a throne with a bronze tripod on the left and a sword on the right.

Thirty-six men lifted the wheel of the jade chariot, wrapped it in gold leaf, and weighed the head and tail of the golden dragon at both ends.

In front of the jade chariot that Emperor Qinglong was riding, the Taichang Yale guided by the palace teaching workshop was played.

First, there are two play bamboos, followed by six orchestras, four seven-hole flutes, two shengs, two cloud gongs, one guiding drum and one clapper. Elegant and quiet music is played.

Behind the female musicians, there are ten saber ministers leading the way. Then there were two saber guards, the guards of the Longwu Army, including ten with spears, ten with swords, and ten with bows and arrows.

Then there is the guide guard of honor, followed by four imperial staffs, four Wu battles, standing melons, lying melons, stars, and Yue each four, ten five-color golden dragon flags, ten five-color dragons, ten double dragon yellow fans, ten yellow nine dragon umbrellas, and a nine dragon crank yellow canopy.
