The person chosen by Mrs. Qin is the young master of the Zheng family in Zhenjiang, who is famous and has a strict character, and if you calculate carefully, his age is two years younger than Wan Tian. The Zheng family lived in the countryside of Zhenjiang, and the old lady was a squire, and the old man also used to be an official in the court of the former Qing Dynasty. I heard that the Zheng family thought that they had received the emperor's favor, and there were still objects in the house that were given by the emperor in front of them, this behavior made Xie Daozhong have a good impression of them, and thought that the Zheng family was a moral family, so when Mrs. Qin said this person, he was very satisfied, and praised the Zheng family greatly.

Xie Wantian didn't know anything about these things, and Mrs. Qin didn't even mention it to Wanlan, she secretly wrote a few letters with Mrs. Zheng, without mentioning marriage at all, as if it was just an ordinary greeting, but politely invited her to bring the young lady and the young masters to the mansion as guests.

Mrs. Zheng could naturally understand Mrs. Qin's meaning, but she couldn't understand whether she wanted to marry her daughter-in-law or her uncle-the Xie family had unmarried young masters, and she sent someone to inquire, and all of them could satisfy her.

Therefore, Mrs. Zheng decided to bring her unmarried son and daughter to Xie Mansion, if it can become one, it is a good marriage, if it can become a pair, it is a double happiness, and the family celebrates.

When she went to the kitchen to arrange the tonic soup that Wanlan wanted to drink according to Lang Zhong's intentions, she unexpectedly saw Uncle Yang, who was in charge of the kitchen, picking out some fine ingredients, and her heart moved, so she walked over and asked him, "Is this for the banquet?"

Uncle Yang straightened up and asked her to say goodbye, and replied with a smile: "But isn't it, this is the time for the ingredients, nothing is wrong, please rest assured." ”

Wu Xinyi listened to the meaning of his words, as if Mrs. Qin did not deliberately tell her to hide it, so she pretended to admonish: "Be careful, Mrs. values this guest very much. ”

Uncle Yang said "hi": "Isn't it the wife of the Zheng family in the countryside, can their Zheng family's cook have me?"

Wu Xinyi laughed and complimented him: "Then how can I compare with you, Uncle Yang's craftsmanship is the best I have ever seen, and the banquets in the palace may not be comparable, and Mrs. does not look down on you, but we and the Zheng family don't move around often, so this time we will naturally be grander, tell you the number of people over there?"

Uncle Yang nodded: "Yes, there are not many, there is only one wife and one young lady among the masters, plus the eldest young master and the younger young master of their family, and the other girls and girls are not under my control." ”

Wu Xinyi nodded, and said politely to Uncle Yang: "Uncle Yang, don't be tired, the eldest lady still has to worry about snacks." ”

Uncle Yang responded, and said with a smile: "Grandma worked hard, so I asked someone to stew a cup for the eldest lady, and the eldest grandmother also tasted a bowl." ”

Wu Xinyi took two bowls of stew cups and walked into the Wanlan embroidery building, according to her habits, she must sit by the window at this time and drink tea while breathing, if she has leisure, she has to turn over another book at hand, which is a good time to talk. When Wu Xinyi passed, a little girl was sweeping the floor downstairs, and when she saw her coming, she hurriedly took the tray from her hand, and pulled a line hanging by the door, and the upstairs remembered the bell, and soon Lixia came down from the second floor and asked Wu Xinyi to say goodbye in a soft voice.

Wu Xinyi is not close to Lixia, and she is too lazy to make a gesture of intimacy, she is so upright, Lixia is shorter, fortunately she is a girl who follows Wanlan, even if she has no confidence in her heart, she can't do such a disgusting attitude of pleasing her.

Wanlan was drinking tea by the window, and looked at the foreign book confiscated by Wanxian a few days ago, and when she saw Wu Xinyi coming up, she put down the cup and smiled at her: "Why are you free today?"

She no longer follows Wanlan to learn the account, and naturally she doesn't have a lot of time to rub it here, Wu Xinyi smiled and brought the porcelain bowl to her from Lixia's hand, and said: "If you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace, I am here, so naturally it is because there is something." ”

Wanlan smiled: "I should have thought of it, if it was okay, the eldest grandmother would definitely not come to me." ”

Wu Xinyi also laughed: "What I want to say, you must be more attentive than me," she paused, and said, "Mother may have to talk about Ah Tian...... If it's not Ah Tian, it's Huaichang, and the other party is from the Zheng family, I haven't heard of it, but you probably know. ”

Wanlan naturally knew that the Zheng family who lived in the countryside, so she frowned and thought about it, in all fairness, the Xie family wants to marry this family, and the family style is quite compatible in all aspects, if it is said to Xie Huaichang, it is indeed a good match, but if it is Wantian, it will be a bit of a good match.

She leaned forward and asked Wu Xinyi, "I didn't hear any wind, how do you know?"

Wu Xinyi said: "I went to the kitchen just now, and I heard it from Uncle Yang, thinking that my mother deliberately hid it from you, and I only knew about it, she wanted to invite Mrs. Zheng and their young master and miss to dinner, and this arrangement didn't pass my hands at all, and I didn't even mention it." ”

Wanlan frowned slightly, and lay back in her chair: "I don't know if it's Huaichang or Ah Tian." ”

Wu Xinyi said: "I'm afraid that when we know, my mother has already made up her mind." ”

Wanlan was afraid of this, so she set her eyes on Wu Xinyi, Wu Xinyi understood her thoughts, hurriedly waved her hand, and said before she could speak: "Although my mother didn't deliberately hide it from me, she didn't tell me either, so it can be seen that she doesn't want to spread this matter, I don't dare to ask her, I want to go yourself." ”

Wanlan really went by herself, she went to the kitchen first, and casually reported a soup she didn't like very much, so she went straight to Uncle Yang to inquire about the treat, and asking was nothing more than what Wu Xinyi told her, Uncle Yang was just responsible for cooking.

She mentioned it to Mrs. Qin at dinner, and first complained about the tonic soup arranged by Wu Xinyi, and then she seemed to inadvertently mention the matter of the treat: "Mother wants to invite Mrs. Zheng, do you want to marry their family?"

Mrs. Qin was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Yes, I planned for you, and it was time to plan for your sister." ”

Wan Tian was drinking soup, and when she heard this, even though she choked and coughed with her mouth covered, Wan Xian hurriedly patted her on the back gently, and said, "Look at my mother scared the second sister." ”

Mrs. Qin smiled: "The girl is enough, this basin of water should be spilled out, but it may not be the son of the Zheng family, isn't this a talented person." ”

Wan Tian stopped coughing, and said with a flushed face: "I don't want to marry yet." ”

"Stupid words," Mrs. Qin said angrily: "Look at your sister, you are going to have a child, you shouldn't have dragged it to this Chenguang, it was all caused by the change of the country in front of you." ”

Wan Tian opened her mouth, and found that she had no way to find a convincing reason to persuade Mrs. Qin to dispel her thoughts, so she had to ask for help to see her sister, but she was at a loss, and Wan Lan couldn't help it, so she could only follow Mrs. Qin's words: "This is a big deal, don't be in a hurry, you have to take a good look at the Zheng family's son." ”

Mrs. Qin said "um" in agreement, meaning something: "Naturally, we want to find a good person who is serious, let's Qing ...... Wrong, wrong, there are so many good men in our Republic of China, I don't believe that I can't find anyone who can marry our Ah Tian. ”

Wan Tian coughed again, Wan Xian patted her on the back, and wanted to say something, but Wan Lan stopped her with her eyes.

The sisters gathered in Wanlan's embroidery building again, but Wu Xinyi didn't dare to follow, for fear that such a blatant disobedience to Mrs. Qin would make her unhappy, so she deliberately went to the long room to serve. Wan Tian instructed Wan Xian to stand up on the back of the recliner and get the cushion on her waist in place, then helped Wan Lan to sit down on the chaise longue, and asked Lixia to boil the boiling water, and brought her a blanket to cover it, and then got down to business: "When did my sister know?"

"In the afternoon, I found out that it didn't take long for your sister-in-law to tell me," Wanlan said: "Don't worry, we have to think about this matter in the long run, and my mother's attitude is clear enough." ”

"I don't think there's a chance to think about it in the long run," Wanxian frowned on the side, with a worried expression, "Mother really doesn't like George." ”

"It's not that I don't like him, it's just that I don't like him to be my aunt," Wanlan said, "I have to let George know about this, we have to discuss it with him." ”

Wan Tian didn't speak all the time, and was silent for a long time, just listening to Wanlan and Wanxian come up with ideas and discuss them word by word, until Wanlan said that she was tired and saw her uncertain expression when she leaned on the back of the chair to drink water, so she hurriedly asked: "We have been talking here for a long time, but we forgot to ask what the main person meant, what does Ah Tian think?

Wan Tian did not speak for a while, for she knew the consequences of such a decision, just as Madame Qin did not want her to marry a foreigner, and George's family might not be willing to accept a girl from China as Mrs. Jazz. Compared with Madame Qin's opposition, she was more afraid that she had easily persuaded her mother, but she would have to sink in the sand with his mother, and had to come back with humiliation and indifference.

Wanlan didn't rush her, because she knew that it would not be easy to make this decision, but Wanxian couldn't wait, her eyes flashed eagerly, as if the protagonist was not asking Wantian but herself, calling her name and urging her: "Second sister, say it quickly, are you willing?" If you are willing, I will say anything to the eldest sister and I will help you fulfill your wish." ”

Wan Tian picked the corner of her lips and asked her, "Do you have a way to convince our mother, do you have a way to convince George's mother?"

Wanxian was dumbfounded for a moment, and immediately said, "Convince George's mother, shouldn't that be George's business?"

Wan Tian said: "Then why should we discuss it with George?"

Wanxian couldn't say why, and stammered, "But...... But...... But he asked to marry you......"

Wan Tian smiled helplessly and shook her head: "Not only did he ask to marry me, but I also begged to marry him, if I want to be a long-term husband and wife who have been together through thick and thin, there is nothing I can let go." ”
