Luo Junxi scratched his head and looked at his second brother Junxuan, Junxuan laughed and said: "Dad is spoiling his sister, I am afraid that she will be wronged when she enters the royal family, in fact, the little sister has an indifferent temperament, and it is indeed not suitable for the kind of palace life trapped in the high walls." ”

Luo Shanren nodded and sighed: "Exactly, watching your sister grow more and more beautiful in the past few years, my heart is becoming more and more unsteady, after you get married this year, Junxuan should also talk about a family matter, next year your sister will be eighteen, I am thinking about finding a good family for her, settling in Los Angeles, closer to me, and having a good response!" ”

Luo Junxi looked thoughtfully at the beaded curtain in the inner hall, and the graceful figure of the girl was hidden in the scorching light, and she couldn't see clearly.

He said in a low voice: "I haven't seen you for a few years, I almost can't recognize my sister, my sister is really beautiful, this is like a celestial appearance, ordinary people can't afford it, Dad, if the royal family is really interested in the future, it is reasonable to match the sister to the prince, you can always want to open a little, His Royal Highness the prince's reputation is still quite good, if he can treat the sister sincerely, in fact, it is not a grievance, this should be called Gao Pan." ”

Luo Shanren stomped his feet again and again, and said sharply: "No! What do you know, the harem is the most smoky place in the world, our family has no power and powerless, I am just a businessman, if your sister enters the palace, she will naturally be spoiled by the prince with her appearance, but how much jealous women will be hated by this jealous woman? What poisoning, planting, ridiculing all kinds of obscene tricks will be endless, your sister is a weak female stream, how to deal with it, how to protect yourself? Have you thought about it? I don't want your sister to be wronged, I don't have to mention this matter again, after you and Princess Mingzhu marry in the future, you are not allowed to mention your sister in front of her, otherwise, it will be a mistake for her life. ”

Luo Junxi was taken aback, his father always pays attention to harmony and wealth, always shows people with a harmonious smile, and rarely speaks loudly, but this time even his neck is thick, which shows that he is extremely impatient in his heart.

"Dad, I'm just talking casually, but this situation is very likely to happen, if the old eunuch goes back and adds vinegar to the saint, it is hard to guarantee that the saint will not move in his heart, just like Fang Cai, issued a decree, and promised the sister to the prince to be a concubine At that time, we can only accept it, otherwise it will be a protest and will attract the disaster of being beheaded all over the house!"

Luo Shanren said: "Nonsense, that old eunuch is just chasing the wind and catching shadows, Zhongzhou is vast, and there are many folk women like stars, if you don't have someone behind your back, how can you choose your sister's head!" I have already said that your sister is sick in bed, you two have to remember, during this time, someone who didn't know asked about Miss Luo's family, and said that the sister is weak and recuperating, do you know? ”

Luo Junxi and Luo Junxuan looked at each other, but Daddy's expression was unprecedentedly terrifying, and they could only nod yes.

As soon as the bead curtain was lifted, Mei'er walked out, she looked pale, walked to Luo Shanren and knelt down, and said in a low voice: "Dad, I don't want to leave you, in this life, my daughter doesn't want to marry any man in the world." ”

Luo Shanren hurriedly picked up his daughter and coaxed softly: "It's okay." It's fine, it's just a casual talk, nothing like that. Your eldest brother will be a colt in two months, and he will marry you a princess and sister-in-law, congratulations to her! ”

Mei'er turned her head to the eldest brother and said: "During this time, there have been rumors in the market that the saint appreciates the eldest brother today and intends to recruit him as a colt, but now it seems to be true, the eldest brother deserves this honor, and the sister is really happy for the eldest brother." ”

Luo Junxi pulled Mei'er up with one hand, and said with a smile: "In fact, in the eldest brother's heart, marrying a small jasper and marrying a princess with golden branches and jade leaves are the same, there is nothing particularly to be happy about, little sister rest assured, that old eunuch is just talking a few words casually, so as to reward some money, the prince's choice of concubine is a matter of importance, how can he choose among the people." ”

Luo Junxuan stepped forward to hold the sister's hand and comforted: "Little sister, my father and eldest brother have made it clear, there is no such thing, don't be afraid, in fact, the little sister is not small, it's time"

He looked at Luo Shanren and said, "It's time to find a good son for my little sister, as long as my sister has a marriage contract, then even if there is really anything wrong in the future, you can't break the marriage contract, right?" ”

Luo Shanren stroked his long beard and said: "Yes, now that you two brothers are here, you just need to go through the details together, check the pass, and choose a good husband for your sister, hehe!" ”

Mei'er stood woodenly, her bright eyes wandered around her father's and brother's faces a few times, seeing that they were all dignified, it seemed that she really wanted to find her in-law's family for herself, she couldn't help crying: "Didn't I just say, I won't marry any man in the world in this life?" Why do you keep chattering? If I think my daughter is an eyesore at home, I will go here and then and be a sister-in-law, anyway, I will not marry. ”

She covered her face with her hands in her hands, and ran back to the backyard crying.

Luo Shanren rubbed his hands again and again, and shouted: "Mother Zhang, Mother Li, go and watch Miss, don't let her cry, she is not well yet, how can she shed tears." ”

The two old mothers responded and ran out quickly.

Luo Shanren walked around the hall a few times, pulling his beard from time to time, and his mood was extremely irritable.

Luo Junxuan spread his hands helplessly and said, "Actually, are we worrying about the sky?" This is not a single thing, I actually took it seriously to discuss today's eldest brother's return to his hometown, and he should be happy, why did he end this for no reason, hehe, and scared my little sister to cry. ”

Luo Shanren patted his head and said loudly: "Yes, yes, you are not allowed to mention this matter at the family banquet later, but, Junxuan, your eldest brother married Princess Mingzhu on October 21, and you will marry at the end of November, and now there are still a few months to go, you can choose the woman you like, as long as you are dignified, innocent, and meet your eyes, then you will marry and enter the door!" You are both too old, you should have married and started a family."

Luo Junxuan sighed, and grinned: "Dad is far away again, the eldest brother has not officially married, I, as a younger brother, should follow the example of the eldest brother, and it is only at his age that I can get married, this is still more than two years away, what are you anxious about?" ”

Luo Shanren sighed and said: "You are not in a hurry, but your sister is not small, in the coming year eighteen, in our Los Angeles, eighteen-year-old women have raised dolls to come out, and after some time, your sister's mood is better, I will look for a matchmaker, and screen a few young talents to let your sister choose, as long as she likes, no matter what the background, I will accept it, anyway, my family has a lot of dowry, even if it is a poor boy, I am not afraid." ”

He glared at the old man and said to Luo Junxuan, who was smiling hippie: "You give me honesty, Junxi is the emperor's marriage, you don't have to choose, but you are blessed to choose freely, if you push three or four and don't go to nothing, then the old man will look for one for you, don't shout wronged then." ”

Luo Junxuan shrugged his shoulders to his eldest brother and said, "Big brother, look, it's obvious that you married your daughter-in-law to do a happy event, but you even want to marry my wife, this is really unreasonable!" ”

Luo Junxi looked stern and said: "Junxuan, you are twenty-two this year, it is indeed time to start a family, I have been fighting outside for many years, there is no way to do it, but you have been staying at home, and you are living such a careless life, it really shouldn't be!" Besides, the younger sister has also grown up, and the young and old are orderly, if we don't marry as the eldest brother, how can she trespass the marriage? You have to think about it for the rest of your life! ”

Luo Shanren patted his eldest son on the shoulder appreciatively, and said with a smile: "Junxi is still sensible, okay, this matter is so decided, Junxi, you have a good rest at home, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, you will leave for Beijing to marry Princess Mingzhu, Junxuan, you quickly choose a girl from a good family, marry Luo Fu a year ago, quickly prepare a family banquet, you brothers talk, I'll go see Mei'er, this little girl may still be crying." ”

On August 15, the three brothers and sisters of the Luo family took dozens of sturdy domestic servants, Luo Junxi and Luo Junxuan rode a high-headed horse, and Mei'er sat in a delicate carriage and went up the mountain again to pay tribute to her deceased mother.

Before that, Luofu had sent several groups of people up the mountain to investigate and confirm that there was no potential danger, so the three brothers and sisters could rest assured that they would go up the mountain and continue the unfinished worship of Qingming.

This worship was very smooth, the time and place were favorable, and the whole process was not disturbed in any way, Mei'er stood on the soil slope that sheltered from the rain that day, thinking about the thrilling and bizarre encounter that day, and couldn't help but feel a little stunned in her heart.

The glass of mellow and sweet cider of the mysterious father and son may really be just a dream, but why does this dream play out in her dream on time every night, and the gentle and lingering flute music makes her even more intoxicated and obsessed.

"Little sister, what are you thinking?"

"Ah, big brother, it's nothing, you're going to Beijing tomorrow to marry the princess, you must be very excited, right?"

"Haha, what's there to be happy about? To be honest, I still envy the blessing of the second brother, who can choose his wife at will according to his own heart, do you know how many girls he has secretly spied on during this time? ”

Luo Junxuan shouted: "What is voyeurism? I just took a sneak peek, but to be honest, all the girls in Los Angeles combined, they are not half as beautiful as the little sister, I really can't pick one! ”

Mei'er smiled and was about to speak, when a gentle and magnetic voice suddenly sounded in her ears: "Mei'er, do you miss me during this time?" My son misses you very much, and I look forward to you going back every day, so I can take my son to visit you tomorrow night, okay? ”
