Chapter 62: Marriage Proposal
Blacksmith Xu changed his image of cowering and timidity on weekdays, waved his hand, and said arrogantly: "Xu used to walk the rivers and lakes, all by the word "righteousness", never looked at people's faces, talked about employment, not for money. ”
"It's really bold enough! But now, Miss Ben has asked you to come out again, and give a little silver to express your sincerity, why do you want to refuse? As the saying goes, money is used when it is used to hate less! "Qin Xingyi is good at winning over and buying talented people for his own use.
"If the help that the eldest lady said is to guard this little brother to prevent him from escaping, then I'm sorry, Xu can't agree to this matter."
"For what?" When Qin Xingyi heard Blacksmith Xu's refusal, not only was she not angry, but her bluntness towards him added to his favor, and she asked curiously.
"Because, this little brother is obviously in a weak position, Xu likes to help the poor and the weak, maybe one day he will have to help him escape if he gets a vacancy." Blacksmith Xu did not hide his opinion in the slightest.
Qin Xingyi was quite surprised when she heard that Blacksmith Xu was going to come to the rescue, and asked, "You are not related to Xuanyuan Mingyu, why do you think you want to help him?" Well, what does Miss Ben say to you? At least, Xuanyuan Mingyu is suspected of murder, so you can't trust him! ”
"Not gullible! You said that he killed someone, but he didn't admit it, Xu has his own opinions, has walked the rivers and lakes for many years, and many times he makes decisions from his heart, not to mention that the eldest lady also said that he was only suspected of murder. ”
Qin Xingyi saw that Blacksmith Xu was so sure that Xuanyuan Mingyu was innocent, and he was secretly surprised in his heart, could it really be that he had wronged him? At this moment, it is extremely important to find out the truth, Qin Xingyi thought of Mayor Ren Sheng's hypnotism again, and felt that maybe he should ask Mayor Ren to try it?
Seeing that Qin Xingyi was deep in thought, Blacksmith Xu didn't bother, stood aside, and observed in a blink of an eye that Xuanyuan Mingyu was drowsy after taking the medicine, knowing that the medicinal power of Dao Dao was working, and said: "Miss, let's go to the hall to talk, this little brother is going to sleep, sleep will help heal his injuries." ”
Qin Xingyi nodded, walked out of the suite, and suddenly heard a knock outside the door, and was surprised: The people from Renfu came so quickly?
"Miss, someone knocked on the door, it may be someone from Ren's mansion." Blacksmith Xu also judged so.
"Okay, Lao Xu, let's go out and have a look." Qin Xingyi said, taking the lead in walking out of the hall.
Xu Xiaodi saw that his father and Xiaoxing had walked out of the room, so he leaned on the crack in the window of the suite and peeked out. I saw my father walk over and open the gate, and the lights outside the door were bright, and more than a dozen red lanterns illuminated the gate.
Mayor Ren Sheng was wearing a black coat, standing at the front of the seven heroes of Ren's Mansion with a smile, and said, "Second brother, let's start!" ”
The second elder of Renfu nodded in agreement, stepped forward and handed Blacksmith Xu a greeting post, and said: "Master Xu, it's a coincidence, tonight my eldest and Miss Qin have some personal matters to do, since Miss Qin is here, then borrow the precious land for the time being, and hope that it will be convenient." ”
Blacksmith Xu didn't have a good impression of Ren Fu at all, but he couldn't stand the polite words of the second child of Ren Mansion, but it was inconvenient to refuse, and he didn't know what they were going to do, so he had to nod his head in agreement, and he flashed by the door to take a look.
Qin Xingyi stood still and didn't move, frowning and watching, I didn't know what kind of mystery the mayor of Lu Dao was going to play, so he could only come to block the water and come to Tutun.
The second child of Ren Mansion walked to the middle of the gate with a nurse and instructed the nursery: "Listen, I'll say a word later, you can knock on the gong and cooperate." ”
The nursing home hurriedly agreed: "Cheng, the second master, we promise to cooperate tacitly." ”
The second child of Ren Mansion raised the greeting post and said two words loudly: "Everyone." He heard the sound of the gong and said angrily: "I don't have the ability to see!" Before you finish speaking, you have to wait for the master to finish his sentence before striking the gong! ”
"Yes, yes, please speak as the second master." The nursing home trembled, putting on a look of fear of being punished.
The second elder of Renfu glanced at him and continued: "Everyone, tonight is a beautiful day, and good things come in pairs!" Let's leave the town mayor and the boss to propose to Miss Qin, the princess of the West Qin Kingdom! Now, the proposal begins now! ”
After the second brother of Ren Fu finished speaking, he didn't see the gong sounding, his lungs exploded, and he shouted: "Knock on the gong, knock on the gong, look for death, wow?" In the face of such ineffective subordinates, it really made the second brother of the Ren Mansion so angry that his throat smoked.
"Dangdangdang" nursing home panicked, carrying the gong and knocking non-stop.
With the sound of the gong, sixteen maids dressed in Tsing Yi walked in, with towering buns and narrow sleeves, automatically lined up in two lines, each carrying a big red lantern, standing on the east and west sides of the courtyard.
Then, the two nurses walked over with a large roll of red carpets, starting from the feet of the town mayor Ren Sheng, and spreading it all the way to Qin Xingyi.
"Flowers!" The second brother of Ren Mansion shouted. Since the gong kept ringing, the sound of his speech was almost drowned out by the sound of the gong that kept ringing.
Immediately, eight maids walked in with flower baskets and surrounded Qin Xingyi.
"Boss, please!" The second elder of Ren Mansion respectfully made a gesture to invite in.
Qin Xingyi was unhappy, Ren Fu put on such a big proposal pomp, and didn't say hello to herself in advance, it was too hasty, but don't blame yourself for not giving face.
Mayor Ren Sheng walked into the courtyard with a shelf, came to Qin Xingyi, and said, "Your Highness, let's call you Miss Qin, right?" I heard that you are leaving at dawn, and the mayor of this town has a lot to say for fear that he will not have time to say, so it seems a bit hasty to pick up important things in advance. ”
"Mayor Ren, are you proposing in the middle of the night?"
"The eldest lady is wise! In a hurry, the mayor of the town came to propose. The dowry is negotiable, can we come into the house and talk? ”
Qin Xingyi saw that things had come to such a point, and he didn't want to refute Ren Sheng's face in public, and the purpose of coming to Mo Lizhen was to win over Mayor Ren, so he took the opportunity to talk carefully at this moment, and said, "It's okay, let's go to the hall." ”
"Very well, eldest lady, please." Ren Sheng agreed, ordered the others in the courtyard to wait on the spot, and followed Qin Xingyi into the hall.
Xu Xiaodi was very curious, would Xiaoxing agree to this family business? He hid in the suite of the hall and eavesdropped through the crack in the door.
Qin Xingyi walked into the hall, invited Ren Sheng to sit on a chair, and said, "Mayor Ren, how did you think of proposing marriage when you and I met today?" Don't you think that's a bit inappropriate? ”
Ren Sheng shrugged, disapproving, and grinned: "Miss, if you are an ordinary person, you may need three media and four hires." However, we are different, people who do big things should make a decision immediately, not mother-in-law, when they see the opportunity to come, they must make a decision immediately, if they have something to say, they should do it quickly, and the God-given marriage cannot be missed! ”
"How do you call a god-given marriage?" Qin Xingyi felt that Mayor Ren was thick-skinned enough, it was simply a strong word, marriage was not a child's play, and it was not something that could be concluded as soon as the brain was hot.
Ren Sheng saw that there were only himself and Qin Xingyi in the hall, and there was no movement in the suite inside, so he let go of his courage and talked about the important content directly, and replied:
"Miss, I can only say that it is the right time for you to come to Moli Town tonight! I am the mayor of the town, and I led the seven heroes of Renfu to fight hard, but after all, Moli Town is sandwiched between three countries, and I heard that Tanjiang Country is preparing to send troops to encircle and suppress it recently, so the mayor of this town is thinking about it these days and wants to find a backer for Moli Town. ”
"Does Mayor Ren want to take refuge in our Western Qin Kingdom?"
"The eldest lady is wrong! Moli Town is a three-way zone, with a unique geographical location, and does not want to submit to any country. However, Mo Lizhen can find a backer country to form an alliance to form a situation of left and right horns and help each other. ”
Qin Xingyi pursed her lips and smiled, and asked, "Mayor Ren, since you just want to find an alliance, what does it have to do with proposing marriage tonight?" ”
Although Ren Sheng was thick-skinned, he was a little embarrassed to mention the cause, and said: "Because when they fought tonight, they were all greedy and wanted to marry the eldest lady, which aroused the injustice of the mayor of the town." If you talk about the best boy in the town, it must be the mayor of this town, and the eldest lady should marry the mayor of this town if she wants to marry. ”
Qin Xingyi saw that Ren Sheng was so confident, and knew that what he said was also reasonable, although Ren Sheng's appearance was not good, but a man should not pay attention to his appearance, but look at his ambition and achievements!
Ren Sheng saw that Qin Xingyi didn't answer, so he tempted him with interests and said, "If the eldest lady agrees to this family business, the dowry of the mayor of this town is absolutely indispensable." ”
Qin Xingyi heard Ren Sheng hurriedly talk about the dowry, and he also wanted to know what he was willing to take, so he asked with a smile:
"There's no hurry about the dowry, Miss Ben hasn't thought about it yet, but you might as well listen to it and arouse Miss Ben's curiosity."
Ren Sheng thinks that girls like to be greedy for money and love rich, as long as they can get the property that rivals the wealth, Miss Qin is also a woman, how can she not be tempted?
"Miss, although Mo Lizhen is small, the management income of the martial arts arena gambling game alone in a year is very considerable, and there are countless other sources of income in the Ren Mansion, it is difficult to describe it in one word, all in all, these wealth will be shared with the mayor of this town in the future."
Ren Sheng didn't say too much detail because Mo Lizhen was secretly carrying out some ulterior transactions, but it can also be seen that Mayor Ren is a rich man with a lot of money.
Qin Xingyi doesn't pay much attention to money, after all, money is something outside the body, and for people who spend money like water, the money is gone. In contrast, Qin Xingyi was more interested in the turf and asked:
"Mayor Ren, do you still plan to expand your territory?"
"Of course, Mo Lizhen has been able to hold on for so many years because it is slowly encroaching on the territory. If, after the marriage between the mayor of this town and the Western Qin State, can he borrow 3,000 soldiers? In that case, the mayor of this town can launch an attack on the Danjiang Kingdom and capture several towns. ”
Ren Sheng exposed his ambitions without scruples, feeling that the future was bright, and the future of Mo Lizhen was very good. He was smug when he heard a man say:
"Little Star...... Don't, don't marry him! ”
Ren Sheng was taken aback, and when he looked at it, it turned out to be at the door of the hall suite, and a young man with injuries all over his body lifted the door curtain, leaned on the door frame, and said loudly.
