Chen Ji went out with the guests in the afternoon, and did not return home until after dinner and near bedtime, when he went up the stairs, he met George, who sent Wantian back, and when he saw him, he smiled and said: "Yuji." ”

Chen Ji smiled at him, looked upstairs, and said, "Let's go downstairs and talk." ”

George guessed what Chen Ji was going to say to him, so he went downstairs with him, and said without waiting for a question: "Tian hasn't said anything to me yet, we just went to the Yuping Cinema today to watch a movie and listen to a play." ”

Chen Ji said: "I had a treat at home at noon today, and I borrowed your name as Earl Spencer, I don't think Ah Tian should have told you." ”

George didn't expect him to say this, and was a little surprised: "It's really not, what's wrong?"

Chen Ji smiled: "I said that my aunt is the wife of the Earl Spencer of the British Empire. ”

George hurriedly asked him, "Is she upset?"

Chen Ji said: "Maybe it's because you haven't married yet, I have to ask you, Sir, have you made up your mind to marry her?"

George pressed his hand to his chest and said solemnly, "In the name of God and my mother, I will not marry any woman in my life except her." ”

Chen Ji sighed "um" and said, "I know that this question may be rude to you, but since you want to become a son-in-law of the Chinese, you must follow the rules of the Chinese, and I want to know something about you and your family." ”

George frowned and made a "please" gesture to signal that he was ready to ask.

Chen Ji said: "I have heard many people call you by different titles, some are earls, some are lords, and some even call you sir, what is your title?"

George didn't answer immediately, he pursed his lips into a line, thought for a moment, and then slowly replied, "This question is really difficult to answer, you have to let me sort out the order, hmm...... To be exact, I don't have a knighthood at the moment, but by protocol I can be called Lord George Spencer, because my father was a Duke, Duke, so I can enjoy the title of Lord for the rest of my life. But when I came to China, I was also called Earl Wayne as a compliment, one of many titles my father had, but in the English aristocracy, my eldest son, my brother Edward, could only borrow the title in social situations. ”

He said, with a sly and gloating expression: "So the title of Countess Spencer is wrong, if the other party is a person who knows the inside story, he will know that the name you borrowed is nothing more than a papier-mâché tiger." ”

Chen Ji disagreed: "I'm afraid they won't have the opportunity to know the inside story in their lives, even I am confused by your explanation, the only thing I understand is that you don't have a title at all, right?"

George pursed his lips again, and instead of answering, he asked, "What's the matter?"

"No," Chen Ji laughed, "don't panic. ”

George breathed a sigh of relief, lit a cigarette, and exhaled a puff of green mist: "I don't know what Tian thinks, if she can't be as determined as me, then all my efforts are meaningless." ”

Chen Ji looked at his cigarette case, as if he wanted to pinch one away, but after thinking about it, he held back, and only said, "Your parents...... What is your attitude towards Ah Tian?"

This was Wan Tian's biggest concern, but she never said a word to George.

George would never have thought that his family would be the most uncertain factor for Wan Tian, so he replied in a relaxed tone: "They support any decision I make." ”

"Really?" Chen Ji smiled: "Then if your parents come from the other side of the ocean to propose marriage, will they agree?"

George was stunned and incredulous, "What do you mean by that?"

Chen Ji shrugged his shoulders: "It's not interesting, it's just that I mentioned it casually." ”

George said, "If this is what Lord Xie asks, then there is no problem, my parents will be happy to come to China." ”·

Chen Ji smiled deeply, and patted him lightly on the shoulder: "George, I am very happy to see you and Ah Tian finally get married." ”

George seemed a little agitated, he inhaled deeply in the twilight, clenched his fists and lowered them, and paced back and forth downstairs. Obviously, Chen Ji's words gave him inspiration and a new direction, which made him a little impatient and wanted to implement it immediately, and Chen Ji had no intention of keeping him, so he politely said goodbye immediately.

Wan Tian was giving Wan Lan a refreshing vegetable porridge, and when she passed through the entrance with a bowl, she was just in time for Chen Ji to open the door, and the latter saw her stunned for a moment, and immediately apologized: "Ah Tian, the introduction of your identity during the noon hospitality may make you uncomfortable, I'm sorry." ”

Wan Tian said: "I knew it would make me uncomfortable, but I still said that, it can be seen that there is a reason to say it." ”

Chen Ji smiled: "It's as exquisite as your sister." ”

"Including inviting you to your home for dinner, it's just a purposeful expression of closeness," Wan Tian said: "You did something wrong, but you don't regret it in your heart, it can be seen that whether I forgive you or not, you won't care too much, so I won't say anything to you like 'It's okay'." ”

Chen Ji frowned, slowly stretched it out again, and nodded to her with a smile: "You're right. ”

"I won't tell Sister Lan, you can rest assured. But even if I say it, I'm afraid she won't blame you much, you are truly a match made in heaven, and you can share the same heart and mind. Wan Tian stood in the light, holding the tray and bowing to him: "Please also ask my brother-in-law to help me, don't let your introduction about my identity become a lie." ”

Chen Ji nodded: "Naturally, please rest assured." ”

Wanlan really didn't mention the matter of asking Chen Ji to apologize to Wantian, and she didn't even mention the luncheon, she never asked Chen Ji about his work, so she didn't ask him what the purpose of this move was. When Chen Ji lay down beside her, he couldn't help but think of Wan Tian's comment on them - they were truly a match made in heaven.

He rolled over and hugged Wanlan from behind: "How are you feeling today?"

Wanlan really didn't fall asleep, and replied: "It's okay, I'm used to the bad places." ”

Chen Ji kissed her hair scattered on the pillow and said, "It's good to give birth to this one, whether male or female, you won't have it again in the future, you are too hard." ”

Wanlan laughed twice: "If it's a daughter, can you still say this?" I'm afraid that my mother will not be the first to agree." ”

"Why can't it? My family doesn't have a throne to inherit, it's not that it has to be a son," Chen Ji said: "What's more, there is also Yuan Chu, let's find a good daughter-in-law for him, so that the two of them can inherit the lineage." ”

"I don't have a good candidate," Wanlan said, "Your mother will never agree, she is too picky." ”

"It's better to say that Yuan Chu has no fame, and he can't marry someone who is idle," Chen Ji said: "I plan to send him abroad to get a degree, even if he comes back and goes to teach in any university, it is a decent job." ”

"You decide. Wanlan's voice was a little tired, and she bent down, trying to find a position that would make her feel comfortable. This is the time when the little one is active, stretching his arms and kicking her in the stomach, kicking her a little disgustingly. Chen Ji's hand reached out from behind and gently stroked her belly, Wanlan felt more comfortable, and couldn't help but complain that it was not easy to conceive a baby.

Chen Ji smiled and comforted her: "When this little thing grows up, if you let him kneel and serve you, if you dare to be unfilial, I will break his legs." ”

Wanlan snorted: "You point to this mouth all day long to fool people." ”

Chen Ji smiled: "If you find out now, I'm afraid it's a little late, I will never agree to a divorce." ”

Wanlan laughed again, she didn't answer, turned over and curled up in Chen Ji's arms, and fell asleep after a while. Chen Ji listened to his wife's steady and long breathing, but he couldn't sleep for a long time, he opened his mouth and called softly in the dark: "Pingqing?"

"The two guests at noon were from Sichuan and wanted to buy 2,000 Tom guns from me, and I gave them a low price. ”

"It's an old customer, I've had transactions since I was still in Beijing, but the number is not much each time, I have never inquired about their identities before, and this time I heard some uncertain rumors, so I invited them to dinner at home. ”

"When I say that Ah Tian is George's wife, I actually want to raise my own value and teach them to think that I have British support behind me. But other than that, I also hope that Ah Tian and George can have a good result. ”

He turned sideways and kissed Wanlan on the forehead again.

"It's an honor to be your chosen choice between your sister and your husband," he sighed softly and contentedly, "even though you don't ask, I'd love to explain it to you." ”

The room was quiet, Wanlan didn't respond, she fell asleep.

George came to visit early the next morning, he specially told his cook to make soup that was beneficial to pregnant women, and when the sky was bright, he brought the sleepy-eyed Xie Huai'an to Chen Ji's residence.

Wan Tian hurriedly got up to wash, and she went out of the room with Chen Ji, who put a finger on her lips and motioned for her not to squeak, because Wan Lan was still sleeping.

"I hope you have something important to discuss in a hurry," Chen Ji beckoned people into the living room, and said with a threat: "It's okay to disturb people's dreams early in the morning, just disturb me, can you afford to pay for shocking Ah Lan?"

Xie Huai'an yawned: "I'm innocent, I don't know anything, it's because he was crazy early in the morning, and he pulled me to talk for half a night last night." ”

George was not angry when he was repeatedly accused by the two people, he only listened with a smile, and only spoke after they finished speaking: "It is indeed a big event, I want to go back to England, please go back to Zhenjiang with my brother-in-law and eldest brother, drag my future father-in-law and mother-in-law, please be calm for a while, don't rush to let the girl go." ”
