106. [103] Propose marriage
In the past, the objects of alcohol were all Shen Xian, but this year, Shen Xian was very witty and pretended to be drunk and motionless on the table, no matter who pushed her, she couldn't afford to live or die, and in the end everyone was helpless, Gan Qian had to invite the maids to put Shen Xian half helped and half mopped the floor into the bedroom.
Shen Xian originally just wanted to pretend to be drunk, but when she threw herself on the soft bed, the whole person seemed to sink into the clouds, and she fell asleep in a flash.
Put the red envelope that had been prepared into her sleeve, and then carry the various gifts that Gan Qian helped sort out, Shen Xian went out to pay New Year's greetings. As soon as she walked to the front yard, Shen Xian ran into a group of bear children running to press the New Year's money, led by Sun Quan, who was the most cheerful, he arched Shen Xian with both hands in fists, and said with a smile: "Third sister!" Wishing you prosperity! Give the red envelope! ”
Remembering that last year he recognized Guo Jia as Sun Quan because he was drunk, and gave all the red envelopes to Guo Jia, and when Sun Quan came to ask for the red envelopes the next day, he pounced, didn't get anything, and held back his grievances, Shen Xian couldn't help laughing, she handed the red envelopes to the bear children one by one, and pinched their soft faces: "Give it to you, I wish you a long and tall New Year." ”
"Third sister, where are you going?" Sun Quan, who got the red envelope, was full of joy, he carefully put the money into his arms, raised his head and asked Shen Xian: "My mother still talked about you before I went out." ”
"Go see my mother first, and then go to see my master." Shen Xian rubbed the top of Sun Quan's hair and said softly, "Let's come the rest in order of near and far...... By the way, what time did you get into last night? ”
Shen Xian ran fast and didn't get caught, but the others may not be.
Speaking of this, Lu Xun snorted coldly: "You are embarrassed to say that you left first and left us there." ”
"How can you compare yourself to your young people." Shen Xian smiled slightly: "Since you are so energetic......"
Without waiting for Shen Xian to speak, Lu Ji grabbed Lu Xun and Sun Quan and ran out: "Sister, let's go play first, so we won't disturb you for New Year's greetings!" ”
"Count you as fast as you can." Shen Xian pursed her lips and looked down at Guo Yi, the only unlucky child who couldn't run because she was pulled by herself: "Yo, Yi'er, are you still there?" ”
A trace of helplessness flashed on Guo Yi's little face, and he raised his hand to shake Shen Xian: "Lord, you are still holding me." ”
"Then you can come with me." Shen Xian picked up Guo Yi and walked outside the house, asking as she walked, "Where is your father?" ”
"I've been there, but my father hasn't gotten up yet." Guo Yi blinked: "Maybe I drank too much last night." ”
Shen Xian snorted coldly: "He dares." ”
"I saw Uncle Xingba toasting my father," Guo Yi said seriously, "But I don't know if he drank it or not." ”
"Go back and settle accounts with them!"
Shen Xian took Guo Yi to meet Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Zhou first, and got a complete set of hairpin bracelets; Then she sent Red Sleeves to send Guo Yi to Guo Jia, and she went to visit Cai Yong and Lu Zhi with the four treasures of the study, but she met Zhao Yun at the gate of the State Pastoral Mansion, and was told that Cai Yong and Lu Zhi drank very much last night, and finally got so drunk that they couldn't go back, and were arranged in the guest room by Gan Qian.
When Shen Xian heard this, she went to the guest room to find the master with black lines, and just walked out two steps and suddenly remembered something, she turned around and looked at Zhao Yun with a smile: "Zilong, are you here to pay my New Year's greetings?" ”
"No, there's something I want to mention to you." Zhao Yun said in a calm tone: "Lord, you are busy first, I can wait in the hall." ”
"Let's go meet Master together." Shen Xian didn't care much, she beckoned: "It's all here." ”
Zhao Yun thought for a while and nodded: "It's okay." ”
Although Cai Yong and Lu Zhi were drunk, they got up very early, and when Shen Xian came to the guest room, they had already finished playing a set of five bird plays.
Shen Xian handed the gift to Cai Yan and asked Cai Yong with a smile: "The teacher will do this too?" ”
"The exercise invented by Huashen Medical is said to have a good effect," Cai Yong replied: "It happened that he was also in Chengdu, so Zigan and I went to ask him for advice." ”
"When you're older, it's good to move your legs and feet more." Lu Zhi rubbed his temples: "The lord got up really early, and he deserved to be the first to leave last night." ”
"Let the gentleman see it." Shen Xian touched her nose: "It's too sleepy, so I can only pretend to be drunk." ”
Lu Zhi pointed at Shen Xian and smiled at Cai Yong: "Look at it, say it, right?" ”
Shen Xian picked up some interesting stories she encountered in Lujiang and Jiujiang and told them to the two old men, making them laugh, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. During this period, Zhao Yun had been sitting silently behind Shen Xian and listening, and sometimes he would smile. Shen Xian's afterglow glanced at him from time to time, wondering what important thing this person was going to say to him on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Shen Xian spent a long time on her mind, and when she talked about her own pseudonym Ziwen deceiving Yuan Shu (anyway, this matter was spread everywhere, Shen Xian had already broken the jar), Shen Xian suddenly remembered something, and stopped after talking for a while.
Crouch...... Trough......
Zhao Yun wouldn't be talking about it, right?
Shen Xian involuntarily turned her head to look at Zhao Yun.
"What's wrong? Lord? Zhao Yun asked strangely.
Shen Xian came back to her senses and quickly shook her head: "It's nothing, nothing." ”
Lu Zhi and Cai Yong glanced at each other, and the latter said, "Shang Yu, Zhao Ji will come out in a while, and if you want to go to Xun's house, take her for a ride." ”
Shen Xian followed Cai Yong's words and diverted the topic: "By the way, teacher, the marriage between Zhaoji and Gongda ......"
"It's been discussed, it was originally scheduled for the middle of last year," Cai Yong smiled slightly: "It's just that the two children will wait for you to come back, so it will be postponed to the fifteenth day of the first month of this year." ”
When Shen Xian heard this, she felt very embarrassed: "Teacher, I'm really sorry, but fortunately, I can catch up, and I will definitely give Sister Zhaoji a big gift this year." ”
Before Cai Yong could answer, he heard Cai Yan's teasing voice coming: "The lord told me before that he wanted to give me two gifts, one is what you want to give, and the other is what I want, does this count?" ”
Shen Xian said: "Naturally, it counts." She paused and said embarrassedly, "Actually, the gift I wanted to give is already on the way...... I just don't know if it's what you want. ”
"Oh?" Cai Yan's eyes lit up, and she asked with interest, "What is it?" ”
"Well......" Shen Xian smiled slightly, and sold a pass: "I won't sue you for the time being." ”
"Promote narrowness." Cai Yan grabbed Shen Xian's arm and said to Cai Yong and Lu Zhi, "Mr. Lu, Dad, let's go first." ”
Lu Zhi nodded: "The lord goes out with a few people, don't go alone." ”
Shen Xian waved her hand: "Got it." ”
Shen Xian and Cai Yan walked in front, Zhao Yun silently followed behind them, walking and walking, Cai Yan suddenly whispered to Shen Xian: "Xian'er, what is Zilong doing with us?" ”
Speaking of this, Shen Xian's shocked feeling of being interrupted just now came back, she glanced at Zhao Yun with her spare eyes, secretly held Cai Yan's arm and whispered, "He seems to be ...... Came to me to propose. ”
Cai Yan was stunned for a moment before she realized that Shen Xian was not referring to herself, but to Gan Qian.
"Really?" Cai Yan raised his eyebrows: "Don't be joking about this...... I've been waiting for a long time to drink the wedding wine of both of them. ”
"I think so." Shen Xian nodded: "Look at Zilong, although his face is expressionless, his hands are still trembling slightly when he clenches into fists, this is a nervous expression!" What is there for him to be nervous about in front of me? Unless it's related to Qian'er! ”
Cai Yan thought for a while and asked sincerely, "Maybe he was frozen because of the sky?" ”
Shen Xian: "...... I don't care about you. ”
"Just ask." Cai Yan smiled slightly, and at this time, the three of them just walked to the side of the hall, Cai Yan stopped and turned to Zhao Yun and said, "Zilong, don't you have something to find the lord?" How about talking about it here? ”
Zhao Yun nodded: "It's okay." ”
Cai Yan turned to look at Shen Xian and saw that she was looking at herself with an expression of "look".
After letting Shen Xian and Zhao Yun into the house, Cai Yan beckoned to a little maid guarding under the corridor: "The lord and General Zilong are talking in the house, go make a pot of hot tea, and serve some snacks, and then find Miss Qian, let her go around the hall through the back door, and stand behind the screen and listen." ”
"Remember, don't talk too much, don't say what you shouldn't say." Cai Yan emphasized.
Although the little maid was confused, she still obediently took the order and left: "I know my lord!" ”
Cai Yan waited at the door for a while, took the tray handed by the little maid and sent it into the house in person.
Shen Xian sat expressionlessly on the main seat and looked at Zhao Yun condescendingly, while Zhao Yun stood in front of Shen Xian with his hands clenched into fists, maintaining a deeply condescending posture.
"Say it again." Shen Xian ordered in a flat tone.
"The subordinates are here to propose marriage to the lord, and they want to marry the Gan Qian girl in the lord's mansion." Zhao Yun obeyed Shen Xian's order and said seriously: "The subordinates and Qian'er are happy with each other, and I hope that the lord will be fulfilled." ”
Cai Yan didn't seem to hear Zhao Yun's words, she walked up to Shen Xian with a tray and helped her get a cup of tea, and then sat down on Shen Xian's right hand.
"Qian'er didn't tell me." Shen Xian looked innocent: "I didn't know about this before!" You're hiding it from me! ”
In fact, what Shen Xian was thinking in her heart was: Oh, I finally said it, and I want to die in a hurry if I hold it back!
And what Zhao Yun thinks is: ...... Can you make a draft before you lie! Obviously, when you were in Shouchun, you began to match me and Qian'er! Later, as long as you meet the two of us, you will match us!
Of course, Zhao Yun still had a calm look on his face: "Qian'er doesn't know about this matter, I am ...... Hiding it from her. ”
That's interesting. Shen Xian and Cai Yan glanced at each other, the latter nodded, and then said to Zhao Yun: "It's not difficult for us to be for you, Qian'er's marriage has to be decided by herself, if she wants, we will immediately help her get married." ”
Zhao Yun just wanted to speak, but Shen Xian suddenly grabbed Cai Yan's arm: "Wait! Have we forgotten something? ”
Looking at Zhao Yun and Cai Yan's puzzled faces, Shen Xian said slowly: "Zilong, you mentioned the wrong place, you should go to Xingba, he is Qian'er's brother." ”
Cai Yan: "......"
Zhao Yun: "......"
Gan Qian behind the screen: "......"
It's embarrassing.
"Did you tell Xingba about this?" Shen Xian asked Zhao Yun: "Recently, I always feel that Xingba seems to have something on his mind, and he is always absent-minded. ”
Is it because you know that you are going to marry his sister, so you are not happy?
"I haven't ...... yet" Zhao Yun was quite embarrassed: "Xingba seems to be because of a certain girl......"
"That girl's surname is Wang?" Shen Xian asked with interest, "He hasn't done it yet?" ”
Cai Yan shook his head: "It's not done, people have withdrawn from the marriage." ”
"What?" Shen Xian was shocked: "What is Boss Wang doing here?" I said it before, but now I will get married? Put me first...... What is the commander of the navy! ”
"I'll mention this later," Cai Yan said helplessly: "Let's talk about Zilong and Qian'er first...... Qian'er, come out when you arrive. ”
Hearing Cai Yan's words, Zhao Yun was slightly shocked, and he watched intently as the beautiful woman in red slowly walked out from behind the screen.
"Qian'er......" Zhao Yun said in a low voice.
"My lord." Gan Qian saluted Shen Xian, nodded to Cai Yan again, and then she said slowly: "I ......"
"When are you going to visit?" Shen Xian suddenly interrupted Gan Qian's words, and she asked questions like a cannonball, without giving Zhao Yun and Gan Qian time to refute at all: "How about the fifteenth day of the first lunar month?" Have a day with Sister Zhaohime? Double happiness? I'll take care of Xingba's side and leave him alone, as for the dowry, I can make a ...... of one hundred and twenty-eight lifts."
Shen Xian's words made Gan Qian stunned, and then her eyes slowly turned red.
"Why are you crying again?" Cai Yan sighed helplessly, she took out a handkerchief to help Gan Qian wipe her face, and took the time to say to Shen Xian: "You are enough!" You're out one hundred and twenty-eight, how do you count mine? ”
"You can do it differently." Shen Xian said with a smile: "It's okay to be a congratulatory gift, anyway, the dowry is from me." ”
"Lord!" Gan Qian suddenly shouted at Shen Xian: "No, don't ...... so much"
"Oh, that's what you agreed to." Shen Xian nodded solemnly: "You don't care how much the dowry is, anyway, I'm the one, can't I add more to my sister?" ”
"Have you asked Lao Tzu's opinion?" The hall door was kicked open with a bang, and Gan Ning walked in angrily, followed by the slow Guo Jia. Gan Ning said angrily: "Lord, that's my sister!" If you want to pay the dowry, I will pay it! ”
Shen Xian said coldly: "You better get your own wife first." ”
