Living a life of licking blood from the head of the knife, He Lanchen did not think of having a good person for his eldest son, perhaps because of his own ambition for his career, which led to a late marriage, and felt that it was nothing, or maybe he had complete confidence in his beloved eldest son, so he didn't worry at all.
Anyway, Qi You's marriage, even if he had already married a man who had passed the twenty required by the Tang Dynasty at that time, He Lanchen never mentioned it.
And Helan Xian was only sixteen years old that year, and his mother, Mrs. Wang, explained to Helanchen that she wanted to choose a famous lady for her son as his wife, Helanchen didn't think much about it at the time, Mrs. Wang was his only concubine, and he rarely refused her, so he agreed. Helan Qiyou, a child who has not had a mother's pain since he was a child, was so driven by his four-year-old brother to get married.
Fortunately, Helan Qiyou did not feel sorry for himself, and several brothers of the four Dharma Protector families who grew up together all analyzed that Mrs. Wang clearly wanted to get ahead of him, first climb to the famous famous family in Jiangnan to consolidate his power, and compete with Qiyou for the position of the future leader, but he didn't care at all.
That day, there was a sudden large-scale reorganization in the house, and Helan Qiyou learned from the busy subordinates that there would be an engagement ceremony that day, and Mrs. Wang had booked the daughter of the Zheng family, a famous family in the south of the Yangtze River, for Helan Xian.
Helan Qiyou didn't dare to disturb immediately when he heard this, and even when he met a group of female relatives in the house, he deliberately made a detour and retreated. He originally decided to leave the house, but he met Green Lotus outside the door, such a little girl, who looked only a few years old, knelt on the ground, begging to sell herself into the house, and the manager saw that she was too young to do anything, so he refused to stay.
When she saw him come out of the house, a pair of clever eyes turned to him. Seeing that he was leaving, his thin hands grabbed him.
Helan Qiyou saw that Lu He was young, but he was really knowledgeable, and he actually knew that he could save her. In addition, seeing that she was weak and helpless, Xu remembered himself when he was a child, so he couldn't bear it, and asked her age, at first she said twelve, and then said that she was ten years old, and when she looked at his sharp eyes, she said that she was eight years old.
"Eight years old? I thought five or six years old at most. At that time, Helan Qiyou said that, Lu He thought that he would not want her, who would want an eight-year-old girl who looked five or six years old?
But then she heard him say to the steward that he happened to need such a little maid in his room, and asked the steward to take her in.
When he first met Qingxuan, he once told her that there was a likable little girl under him, who was very good at taking care of all kinds of flowers and plants, and could make incense, and would also make flowers in clothes, which was green lotus.
When Lu He first saw Helan and Qiyou, he was clever enough to know who the master was, and directly begged him to take him in, and it was successful. The ability to survive in a desperate situation has been revealed since childhood.
Helan Qiyou returned with the green lotus, and first instructed the steward in her garden to take care of her, and then wanted to go out again. Halfway on, he picked up a silk handkerchief on the ground, embroidered with a bright moon reflecting the delicate yellow evening primrose, the composition was exquisite, and the embroidery was exquisite, even he a man couldn't help but admire when he saw it, so he took it into his arms.
Then he walked through the garden, and saw a beautiful and lovely girl in the prime of her life, looking for something with her head bowed. Because she was too attentive, she didn't see Helan Qiyou, who was standing on the road, a handsome young man, until she almost bumped into him, Helan Qiyou didn't hold her.
"Be careful..."
"Uhhhh "Thanks... Thank you..."
It took a lot of effort to say the word thank you, and then Helan Qiyou was about to walk away, only to hear her muster up a lot of courage to dare to ask. “... Belch... Son.... Excuse me... There is a see.... See..."
Helan Qiyou saw that the girl was as anxious as an ant on a hot nest, and she blushed and felt very cute, guessing that this should be the maid of the young lady who was betrothed to the younger brother, and she lost the delicate embroidered handkerchief for the young lady and came out to look for it.
"Looking for something?"
She nodded hurriedly.
He guessed what she was looking for, so he took out the embroidered papa he had put away earlier and raised it.
"Is this it? It's your young lady's, right?"
His mother died early, and no one had ever made such an embroidery for him, and he did have the heart to collect it, but when he saw that the little maid was in a hurry, he quickly took it out and returned it.
Hearing him say that it was her young lady's embroidered handkerchief, she was in a daze for a moment before answering. "....Miss... Yes... It's a lady's embroidered handkerchief.... Thank you..."
