Chapter 21: The Oath

Xiao Wanrou wiped her tears and choked up: "My daughter's daughter really likes Xue Gongzi, so he won't marry...... So mother...... The daughter was afraid of losing him. ”

"Silly boy." Liu Ruyun took out a silk handkerchief to wipe away Xiao Wanrou's tears, and the tone of her voice softened, "Your Xue Gongzi and that little slut haven't gotten a word yet!" What are you worried about? Besides, the parents of both parties will not agree, although your father thinks that it is okay to marry anyone, but it is absolutely impossible for Xue Fu to make do! ”

Xiao Wanrou was stunned and said, "What did you say...... But really? What if Xue Tianao insists on marrying Xiao Wanyao? ”

Liu Ruyun shook her head and gently stroked Xiao Wanrou's right hand: "The identity is bigger than the sky." You have to know, how noble is your identity as Xue Gongzi? Although your fathers are all prime ministers, and you feel equal in the previous dynasty, but in the harem, Xue Gongzi's eldest sister is the queen, and Xue Gongzi's aunt is the queen mother! Xue Gongzi has a very close relationship with the royal family, Xue Youcheng chose a wife for Xue Tianao, why didn't he think about the royal face? ”

Seeing that Xiao Wanrou's expression was still confused, Liu Ruyun couldn't help but shake her head: "Xue Youcheng's only son married someone else's concubine, where do you let the queen mother and the queen put their faces?" ”

Xiao Wanrou suddenly realized: "Mother, you are very right, but my daughter is afraid of an accident in the middle." ”

"There will be no surprises." Liu Ruyun was very firm about this, "This qiē is all a formality, it is inevitable that the Xue family and the Xiao family will marry, and the only candidate who is qualified to marry Xue Tianao is my daughter, Xiao Wanrou." ”

After Xiao Wanrou listened, she smiled.

In the blink of an eye, Xue Tianao has been living in Xiao Mansion for seven days, during which there are some things that happened except for the first two days, the rest of the days are idle, Xue Tianao looked for Xiao Wanyao twice and was turned away, so he didn't bother, he gave up; But this is good news for Xiao Wanrou, she tried her best to please Xue Tianao, but unfortunately Xue Tianao was still indifferent and indifferent to Xiao Wanrou.

On the seventh day, Xiao Mansion ushered in Xue Youcheng's second visit. He came for two purposes, one was to take his son back, and the other was to propose marriage.

Xue Tianao's appearance for a few days was calm and couldn't be calm, and Xiao Man didn't see Xue Tianao's thoughts, for fear that he would refuse the marriage.

To Xue Youcheng's surprise, Xue Tianao has been living a very good life in the Xiao Mansion these days, and he has not had any trouble, and he can't help but feel relieved, it seems that his son has grown up and will not cause trouble, so that he can rest assured that his son will marry Miss Xiao's family.

"My son has seen Daddy." Xue Tianao said.

"Hmm. How is Tianao living at your Uncle Xiao's house these days? Xue Youcheng asked.

Xue Tianao nodded: "Uncle Xiao treats Tianao very well, Tianao is more comfortable living these days than at home." ”

Xue Youcheng laughed: "Old Xiao, Xiao'er Tianao hasn't been in trouble these days, right!?" ”

Xiao Man shook his head, also with a smile: "Tian Aoxian's nephew is much more well-behaved than the old man imagined, he has never caused trouble, but he gets along well with our family, even my little nephew Shuxian likes him very much!" ”

Xiao Man is telling the truth, he has long heard of Xue Tianao, and knows that this kid has learned a bad problem, and his temper is also weird, relying on his rich background, so no one dares to mess with him, but now he has been living in Xiao Mansion for a few days, but he has changed his normal and obedient for a few days, and he doesn't know why this qiē is.

"Is that old Xiao that we can set a date and let Xiao'er Tianao marry Miss Xiao?" Xue Youcheng is back to business, because marriage is the goal.

"Daddy." Xue Tianao interrupted Xue Youcheng's words at this time, and looked at Xue Youcheng with a stern expression.

Xiao Man "chuckled" in his heart, for fear that Xue Tianao would regret his marriage.

Xue Youcheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Tianao, if you have anything to say, just say it!" ”

Xue Tianao was relieved and said: "Uncle Xiao is good to Tianao, Tianao is reluctant to leave, and wants to stay in the Xiao family for one more day." ”

Xue Youcheng and Xiao Man were both stunned, they didn't know what medicine Xue Tianao was selling in the gourd, why did they suddenly have such a request, what was Xue Tianao's purpose?

Seeing that the two prime ministers didn't speak, Xue Tianao had no choice but to continue: "Regarding the marriage, Tianao still has a few doubts in his heart and wants to get along with Miss Xiao for another day, these doubts are solved, and Tianao will no longer have any worries, and he will be willing to marry a wife with peace of mind." ”

When he said "willingly", he deliberately accentuated his tone, which made Xue Youcheng and Xiao Man both moved.

Xue Youcheng looked at Xiao Man, this idea could only be taken by him.

"Hmm...... Since the virtuous nephew still wants to live for another day, the old man naturally welcomes it, Xue Xiang, what do you think? Xiao Man asked.

Xue Youcheng smiled: "It's not a big deal, Tianao's request is reasonable2, it's right." ”

At this point, Xue Tianao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and thanked the two prime ministers.

And Xiao Wanyao's ointment at this time has run out, and the scar on the back of her hand is invisible, in order to keep improving, Xiao Wanyao also wants to use another box of ointment.

"The second lady wants to match naturally, but now it's the same as last time, there is a lack of two flavors of medicine, prince ginseng and leeches." Licorice was holding the tin box, and the ointment inside the box had been cleaned.

"Today is the last time, if you can't stop it for too long, it's better to go today and buy some medicine to prepare it early.

Licorice nodded: "Now the second lady doesn't have to beg the lady, the master has been at home these days, and the second lady goes to ask the master to go out." ”

Xiao Wanyao nodded, and after wiping the ointment, she went to find Xiao Man.

At this time, Xiao Man and Xue Tianao were drinking tea under the gazebo in the garden, and when Xiao Wanyao came over, Xue Tianao happened to see her, and his eyes were full of smiles.

"I've seen Daddy, I've seen Xue Gongzi." Xiao Wanyao asked for an answer.

Xiao Man is now more and more satisfied with his daughter, she is not only talented, but also knows etiquette and etiquette, since the last banquet and Xue Tianao met, she has no intersection with Xue Tianao in private, and Li Lan Xue Tianao went to her to eat behind closed doors, so that no one will talk behind their backs and save her reputation.

"Wan Yao, what's the matter with coming to Daddy?" Xiao Man asked with a pleasant face.

"Back to Daddy, Wan Yao came to Daddy, she wanted to beg Daddy to let Wan Yao go out, Wan Yao wanted to buy something, I don't know if it can?" Xiao Wanyao said.

Xiao Man nodded: "Go ahead, pay attention to safety." "If it was in the past, Xiao Man would definitely ask clearly before letting her go out, but today Xue Tianao is here, Xiao Man is not too embarrassed and ungenerous.

"It's just right, Uncle Xiao, Tianao is going to go home to take samples and come over, and send the second miss off by the way, and you can also ensure the safety of the second miss."

Because it was still daytime, Xiao Man didn't feel anything wrong, so he agreed.

After going out, Xiao Wanyao didn't bring licorice out, she and Xue Tianao walked for a long time, and it wasn't until they were far away from Xiao's mansion that Xue Tianao began to speak.

"Girl, long time no see, how are you doing? After meeting for so long, I didn't have time to say a greeting. Xue Tianao smiled bitterly.

"I also want to thank Xue Gongzi for not saying anything like knowing me, so that I didn't be suspected by my family." Xiao Wanyao is also very grateful to Xue Tianao.

Xue Tian raised the corners of his mouth and said in a low voice: "I remember that last time the girl said that she owed Qinghe a favor, and now it is time to repay the favor, I don't know if Miss Xiao is willing?" ”

Xiao Wanyao was stunned for a moment, thinking that last time he clearly said that he didn't need to repay the favor, but now that he brings it up again, won't he let her help him escape!?

Xiao Wanyao looked at Xue Tianao with a defensive expression, completely lacking the meekness and reserve when she was in the Xiao Mansion.

Xue Tianao couldn't help laughing, in fact, this kind of Xiao Wanyao is the real Xiao Wanyao, right!?

"You talk about it first, and then I'll decide." Xiao Wanyao said.

Xue Tianao smiled: "It's not difficult, I just want the girl to marry me." ”

Xiao Wanyao listened, her face turned red and white for a while, isn't this difficult? Why did Xue Tianao think that he could entrust her for life?

Seeing that Xiao Wanyao was angry and didn't want to pay attention to him anymore, Xue Tianao hurriedly put away his smile and said to Xiao Wanyao sternly: "I just want to make a deal with the girl, no matter how the girl chooses in the end, it will not be the girl who suffers!" ”

There are not many people here, Xue Tianao choked her wrist without scruples when he spoke, for fear that Xiao Wanyao would escape halfway through his speech, seeing that Xiao Wanyao was not angry, Xue Tianao continued: "Qinghe really has no intention of getting married now, but my father is persecuting it tightly, and I really have no choice, but I don't want to be dragged down by Xiao Wanrou, so I have to make this decision." ”

"You don't think I'm going to drag you down?" Xiao Wanyao was in a displeased mood, and she was angry when she looked at Xue Tianao.

Xue Tianao smiled: "The girl has to hide from the draft, so it means that you are not a person who is greedy for wealth and nobility, and the son of Xue Xiang is not tempting for the girl!" ”

Xiao Wanyao no longer concealed it, and said in a low voice: "I only want to find someone I love and love me in this life, if I can't find it, I am willing not to marry for the rest of my life." ”

Xue Tianao was stunned for a moment, and continued: "The girl has this state of mind, Qinghe admires, if the girl is willing to marry Qinghe, Qinghe is willing to take care of the girl for the rest of her life, and promise to give the girl a book of harmony, if the girl is not willing to succumb to Qinghe after marriage, she can take the book and leave." ”

"And what exactly do you get out of it?" Xiao Wanyao couldn't help but feel a little moved when she heard that she could leave at any time, so she was free in disguise, but she knew what kind of person Xue Tianao was, a standard gentleman, how could she believe what he said?

"Don't hide it from the girl, my father fed me soft tendons, and there was no cure for a while, I lost the ability to resist, so I had to obey my father's orders......" Xue Tianao said here, his expression was down, "So this time in-law, my father has made up his mind." ”

"Loose tendons?" Xiao Wanyao squinted her eyes and pulled Xue Tianao's wrist, put her finger on Xue Tianao's pulse, and after a while, she was sure that Xue Tianao was not lying, his pulse was soft, and he really had no internal strength.

"Give me some time, and I'll help you make the antidote." Xiao Wanyao said.

Xue Tianao was very surprised, the girl in front of her actually knew how to use the Huang Zhishu, but she still shook her head with some disappointment: "Tomorrow my father wants me to make a decision, there is not enough time, if I propose to marry the second miss, maybe it can be delayed for a few days." ”

Xiao Wanyao thought for a while and replied, "Then you can drag it out for a day!" The worst plan is to marry you, but the letter you promised me and the divorce must be given to me before marriage. ”

Xiao Wanyao didn't think that Xue Tianao could be entrusted with it for life, but the "freedom" price he offered was really tempting. I1483
