Chapter 137: Daughter's Thoughts
readx;?“ Matchmaker ......" Zheng Baocai glared, looking at Yue Xi speaking a little incoherently: "Brother, we are both so familiar...... Besides, my brother really wants to marry her and go back to live......"
"If you are hired, you will be a wife and a concubine, and if you have no matchmaker and no hiring, Brother Zheng, you will say that you want to marry Xia Ran?" Yue Ximian sank like water, and his attitude was extremely resolute: "I'm sorry!" I also asked Brother Zheng to go back and invite the matchmaker to come with me, let's discuss this matter again! ”
Yue Xi very politely invited Zheng Baocai out, but he didn't show any mercy. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zheng Baocai was stunned, and walked out angrily: "My brother has remarried, and he still makes such a big move, isn't it a joke for the neighbors!" ”
"That's fresh!" Yue Xi stood at the door-for-tat: "Brother Zheng is also a dignified husband in the west of the city, why is he afraid of people now?" What's more, you are marrying a happy event, who is full of laughter about you! ”
Zheng Baocai opened his mouth and wanted to say a few more words, when he caught a glimpse of a magnificent carriage parked on the side of the road opposite, and even the entourage who followed the car looked quite imposing. A mother-in-law stood under the car and stretched out her hand to help the two women get out of the car.
Looking at the clothes of the two women again, Zheng Bao knew that they must not be ordinary women's dependents.
He stopped talking about the current affairs, and said goodbye to Yue Xi: "Wait for my brother to bring the matchmaker to the door!" ”
Princess Xian and the county lord of Yanping stood on the side of the road, watching Zheng Baocai walk away, Yue Xi saw the mother and daughter and greeted them with a smile: "Eji, county lord." ”
"Do you want to do a happy event in the house? How did I hear the man say he was going to bring a matchmaker to the door? Princess Xian grabbed Yue Xi's hand, and the two of them chatted as they walked, and Lord Yanping followed silently.
"The eight characters haven't been skimmed yet...... Yue Xi looked ahead and snorted, leading the mother and daughter into the main hall.
"Cut a plate of watermelons from our town in the well and bring them up." Yue Xi said to Ah Xiu, who was cleaning up the teapot and bowl in the house.
"Yes." Ah Xiu answered, and saluted Princess Xian and the county lord before withdrawing.
After a short time, Yun Hua came in with a tray first, and Ah Xiu followed behind her.
It was a female guest at home, and it was inconvenient for Ah Xiu to wait in the house.
Yue Xi and Princess Xian sat on both sides of the square table at the front door, and the county lord of Yanping sat at the table under Princess Xian, and she kept staring at each other when she came in from the cloud painting.
Yun Hua felt that her gaze only pretended not to know, and steadily placed the fruit plate and refreshments, took the tray in Ah Xiu's hand, and arranged the fried pumpkin seeds with preserved fruits on it before standing under the eaves outside the house without saying a word.
"These people in your house are not young, aren't they?" It wasn't until there were only the three of them left in the house that the county lord of Yanping asked softly.
"Huh?" Yue Xi didn't understand the meaning of her words for a while.
"It's the women who have been following you." Lord Yanping said.
"They...... It's not big! The eldest is twenty-five or sixteen years old, so he is young. Yue Xi smiled and pushed all the food on the table to Princess Xian's side, and he took a small sip of tea.
"Twenty-five or sixteen years old...... Isn't it big...... "Lord Yanping picked up a pumpkin seed on the plate, but she didn't want to eat it, and finally she threw it back on the plate.
"Of course it's not big!" Yue Xi knew that the county lord of Yanping had a pimple in his heart, so when he said this, he was extremely serious: "People, when the heart is old, it is really old." In my opinion, Eji is not old at this age......"
Yue Xi has a modern soul in her bones, in her former world, when she was twenty-five or sixteen years old, she was in her prime, and she couldn't be considered old enough!
"You kid loves to listen to Eji!" Princess Xian stood up with a smile and walked a few steps in front of Yue Xi: "Girl, how about looking at this dress made by Ejixin?" ”
Yue Xi got up and reached out and touched the fabric before nodding and said, "It's good, this material is thin and not transparent, and it is comfortable to wear." ”
"The material is good, it's just that this style is not as good as the Jin Niang in your house." She pulled Yue Xi's hand and said, "If she is free, Eji wants to ask her to help make two more sets." ”
"Jin Niang is in the back garden." Yue Xi smiled: "Let's go over and find her, what style do you like, you tell her that she is indeed clever and has a good eye." ”
"It's just that she's always on her hands, and I'm afraid you'll have to wait a few days to put it on." Yue Xi and Princess Xian walked to the door, and when they turned around, they saw that the county lord of Yanping was still reading the nepotism in his hands, and she shouted quietly: "The county lord should also go together, the courtyard is cooler than here, let's go to the back and talk." ”
"Just go to the back and give you a good time." Princess Xian glanced at her daughter, her eyes faded, and when she looked at Yue Xi, she still smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's not that you don't have any clothes to wear, Eji brought all the fabrics ......"
Talking and laughing all the way to the small garden, Yue Xi looked around, and several old girls were there, but they didn't see Xia Ran.
Princess Xian first went to the pavilion to meet Mrs. Lou, who was sitting inside, and sat down, and the two women of the same age talked to each other.
Yue Xi also took Jin Niang into the pavilion, took the burden she was carrying from the servant woman who followed Princess Xian and opened it on the stone table in the pavilion, there were five or six pieces of clothing at a rough glance, each of which was a bright and pink color, no matter how you looked at it, I felt that such a color was a little inappropriate if Princess Xian wore it!
"This color is a bit ......" Jin Niang picked up each piece of material and looked at it, looking at Yue Xi with a lot of difficulty.
"This is for Yanping." Princess Xian looked at her daughter sitting on the side of the pavilion and sighed silently: "This child doesn't know how to be good, so he wears those two clothes when he sees the sky." No matter how much she is asked to do it, she won't go. ”
"I know, people say she doesn't pay attention. I don't know, I thought that I was stingy and slow to treat my daughter, and I didn't even make a piece of clothing for my children! ”
"Mother......" Hearing her mother mention herself, the county lord of Yanping was a little embarrassed, she peeked at the expressions on everyone's faces, and said softly: "I said why do you have to come here, it's like this......"
"No, you won't even leave the house!" Princess Xian picked up a piece of cloth and walked to her daughter's side, put it on her and compared: "Last time, you went to the door of the shop, and you didn't go in...... What else can I do? ”
The county lord of Yanping lowered his head and was not very interested: "I am not short of clothes...... My mother made it and wore it. ”
"Other girls think they have few dresses, I've never seen you like this!" Princess Xian took the fabric and raised her hand to poke a finger at her daughter's head: "Look at these colors that my mother can wear?" ”
"Madame is right, this color is the only one that looks good when the county lord wears it!" With a smile on her face, Jin Niang came over and took the clothes in Princess Xian's hand and put them in the baggage, and dragged the county lord of Yanping up with one hand and the other hand, and the two of them walked out of the pavilion with their arms in hand: "Go up to my house, I will measure the size of the county lord." ”
When the two of them walked to the door of a courtyard, they were just in time for Feng Jizong to hurriedly walk out of it, and when he saw someone walking by at the door, he stopped and avoided and nodded at Jin Niang, standing there without squinting.
"Let's go, aren't you going to the city?" The big man was blocked behind him, and opened his mouth to urge: "Let's go back quickly, and go back to the house for lunch." ”
"Hmm." Waiting for the two women to walk over, Feng Jizong got out of the way and strode to the stable.
Walked a long way forward with the shelf, and glanced at the road when the county lord Yanping quickly came and went, and the road was empty, and there was still the figure of the man.
Lowering her eyes, she felt a little lost in her heart.
It's clear that he knows, but that person only thinks he hasn't seen it, it's really unreasonable...... The county lord of Yanping thought silently in his heart: I don't know if I gave him the silver ticket Yuexi left last time, I should have asked just now......
After thinking about it again, she dispelled the idea again: ask him what to do! I gave the silver ticket to the left, and it's his business whether to take it or not...... The next time I see this person, I just don't know him.
……
Princess Xian didn't like to leave as soon as she came to Xixiang Village, and she didn't leave reluctantly until lunch.
Yue Xi sent the two of them to the car, and she stuffed something into the hands of the county lord of Yanping: "Come to the house if you have nothing to do, don't be bored......"
"Hmm." Lord Yanping nodded in response.
The guests waved goodbye, and the carriage walked for a while before the lord of Yanping remembered what he was holding, and when he opened his palm, he saw that it was a cleverly crafted purse!
"This purse is beautiful!" Princess Xian took the purse from her daughter's hand to take a closer look, and found that it still contained something after pinching: "What ...... it contains?"
Several silver tickets of different sizes were set out, and they were folded very flatly.
"Original...... He really won't accept ......," took the silver tickets, and the county lord of Yanping muttered.
……
Seeing off the guests, Yue Xi went straight back to his courtyard.
Yun Hua saw her, and hurriedly brought a basin of water and followed: "The master, wash your face and ......"
"Hmm." Yue Xi took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves and bent over to wash it with water, and only then got up, Yun Hua handed over the dry and loose cloth towel.
Yue Xi answered: "What about Xia Ran?" ”
"Inside the house." Yun Hua lowered his voice and said, "Since I knew that Mr. Zheng came to propose marriage, she was sitting in the house, and she didn't even pay attention to me." ”
"Oh." Wipe his face clean, Yue Xi put the cloth towel on the edge of the basin and picked up the curtain and shouted outside: "Xia Ran, you are not too hot, come out and cool off for a while!" ”
Sitting in the shade by the stone table when he went out, Yue Xi picked up a pu fan placed on it and fanned it, and waited for a while before he saw Xia Ran walking out slowly.
"Sit down." Yue Xi raised his eyes and stared at her face, and patted the stone bench next to him with a fan.
Kasumi didn't sit down, just stood in the middle of the courtyard with her head down.
"Oh my God, you dare to stand in the sun? Don't you be afraid of heat stroke! Yue Xi shook his head and pulled her to the stone bench and pressed her to the chair: "Is the sky falling or the earth sinking, making you worry like this...... Say what you have, don't keep it in your heart. ”
Xia Ran pursed her lips and said nothing, her hands clasped tightly together.
In the house, Yun Hua stomped his feet anxiously from behind the curtain, and wanted to rush out and slap Xia Ran: "You have something to say!" There is a master, what is there to be afraid of ......"
But Yuexi didn't allow her to go out, for fear that Xia Ran wouldn't be able to wipe off her face, so she had to hide in the house and be in a hurry......
Yue Xi was not in a hurry, he shook the pu fan very patiently, and also fanned Xia Ran a few times from time to time.
"The ...... of the house" Xia Ran finally opened her mouth, and her voice was weak as if she was seriously ill.
Yue Xi stopped his movements and listened to her intently: "Hmm." I'm listening. ”
"Do I have to marry Mr. Zheng......" Xiaran's head hung down.
"It's not." Yue Xi said calmly: "Didn't I tell you a long time ago, you will make your own decisions when your marriage comes." ”
"I know what the boss says." Kasumi lowered her head, her voice so small that she could barely hear it.
"Then what are you worried about?" Yue Xi leaned over and whispered, "You must marry willingly, and I will rest assured that you will let you out of our door......
"Master!" Outside the courtyard, Ah Xiu ran over like a foal, and saw Yue Xi hurriedly saying, "Mr. Zheng is here again!" ”
"Holy! I really don't give Lao Tzu the effort to take a breath! Yue Xi got up and walked out, but Yun Hua picked up the curtain and shouted, "Clothes!" You haven't put on a coat yet......"
