Chapter 190: Turning Back
Xue Yuanhan sat until his legs were numb, only to find that there was already starlight outside the window. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he stood up stiffly, undressed and fell asleep. But as long as you close your eyes, Qian Liniang's smiling face and teary eyes will appear alternately.
When he recalled that under the stone table of the Qixia Mountain Pavilion, he would be inexplicably restless.
Xue Yuanhan flipped his body irritably, lying face down, and buried his face in the pillow. The store put chrysanthemum leaves in the pillow, and there was a little bit of fragrance at this time.
This trace of fragrance accompanied him to a deep sleep, a sweet night, no dreams.
Early in the morning of the second day, the entourage knocked on the door and told Xue Yuanhan to get up. He realized that he had slept on his stomach all night, his neck stiff and a large puddle of saliva on his pillow.
He turned the pillow over in embarrassment, washed hastily, and after breakfast, he led people on horseback on the road back to Jinling.
The May wind, even when it blows, is gentle on the cheeks. Xue Yuanhan had no intention of appreciating the spring light, and his mind kept rolling in his mind, one person and one thing after another, coming in and out.
When everyone rested at a tea stall next to the post road, Xue Yuanhan was still in a daze.
The attendant cautiously asked, "My lord, there is no good tea in this tea shop, do you want to drink plain water or add some tea casually?" ”
He waited for a long time, but Xue Yuanhan did not answer.
The old woman in the tea shop quipped: "I'm afraid that this official has something on his mind!" Seeing you in such a dusty place, you are either thinking about the wife at home, or thinking about the daughter-in-law who has not passed the door. ”
Xue Yuanhan came back to his senses and asked blankly, "Why did you sit for a long time and didn't order anything?" ”
The old woman smiled, "I'm really right." ”
The old man of the tea shop hurriedly came over and served a bowl of water to a few of the first, and complained in a low voice: "These are all officials, and you just talk nonsense......
The old woman smiled at him and said, "Okay, you're right, then I won't say it." There is still a steamed flower cake in the back, see if it's almost ready, and bring it out for a few officials to taste. ”
The old man hurriedly followed behind her, muttering: "The flower cake is hot, or I'll come out of the pot, you carefully scald your hands......"
Xue Yuanhan looked around the entire tea shop, there were three wooden houses in the back, and a shed was built in front, which was very simple. He went around to the back of the house, and the husband and wife also carved out a neat vegetable patch. Although he is poor, he can still live a good life.
When he walked back, there was already fragrant flower cake on the table. He picked up a piece and took a bite, it was sweet and fragrant, and it melted in his mouth.
He looked back at the old couple, who were cleaning up the tea bowls left by the guests at the table next to them. I don't know what the old man said, but the old woman just couldn't stop laughing.
Xue Yuanhan's heart suddenly couldn't sink anymore, he stood up with a roar, and ordered his entourage: "You first ride back to Jinling, and return all the things you did this time to the prince." Let's just say that I still have some things to do in Yangzhou, and I will come back two days later! ”
After that, he didn't wait for the entourage to say anything, took out a piece of silver and handed it to the old woman, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your tea and pastries!" ”
Then he turned over his horse, rode away, and galloped away in the direction of Yangzhou.
The attendants at the tea table all looked at each other, not knowing what illness their commander had committed, and they had just ridden over with great difficulty, and they were about to go back again.
Xue Yuanhan kept whipping the horse, the wind was whistling in his ears, and his ears were like a drum, with a powerful heartbeat, making him feel his blood boiling.
Looking at those two old people, they are still in love with each other in their twilight years. He only thought repeatedly in his heart: each other was young, and they had a good time.
What the former alliance of the Old Testament, what the Mendi family, all go to hell!
Finally, Xue Yuanhan rushed to Yangzhou City at sunset. He didn't stop for a moment, he rode directly to the gate of the Qian Mansion, turned over and dismounted, threw the reins to the little guy who came out to check, and said to the porter: "Go in quickly, just say that Xue Yuanhan is coming to visit!" ”
As soon as the porter saw that Lord Changshi, who had just come yesterday, hurried over, he didn't dare to slack off for a moment, turned around and ran into the inner courtyard.
After a while, Qian Changyin dragged his fat body, ran out with his family, and asked anxiously: "Lord Changshi is going and returning, but what's the matter?" ”
Xue Yuanhan smiled slightly, and said humbly: "It's an important matter, but it's not in a hurry, let's go in and talk about it." ”
Qian Changyin saw that his attitude was very different from yesterday, and he couldn't help but doubt in his heart, not knowing whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
He took Xue Yuanhan to his study nervously, and the two sat separately. When the maid came over to serve tea, Qian Changyin said anxiously: "Lord Changshi, please advise." ”
Xue Yuanhan was a little embarrassed at this time, he had just set up a shelf in the Qian family yesterday, and he was going to come to the door today to beg for help. He wasn't sure whether he should kneel or kneel, so he hesitated for a long time, and as a result, Qian Changyin was so anxious that his head was full of beads of sweat the size of beans.
"Lord Xue...... You see, what the hell is going on? If you say it, it will reassure me......"
Xue Yuanhan raised his eyes and saw Qian Changyin's embarrassment, so he came to his senses, and simply turned his heart sideways, walked to the middle of the room, and knelt down in front of Qian Changyin.
He knelt down, almost scared Qian Changyin out of breath: "Lord Xue, what are you doing, hurry up, if you have something to say, talk slowly!" ”
Xue Yuanhan said seriously: "In my later life, I heard that the daughter of Mr. Qian's family is virtuous and beautiful, and she is known for her wisdom, and she is willing to hire her as a wife, and she will never live up to her old age!" I hope that Mr. Qian will be fulfilled! ”
Qian Changyin looked at the beautiful son in front of him, as if he was stunned by this huge pie that fell from the sky, and he didn't say anything for a while.
Xue Yuanhan looked up at Qian Changyin, moved his knees, and signaled that he was still kneeling.
Qian Changyin hurriedly helped him up, and said with a smile on his face: "Xue Da, ah no, is Xue Gongzi serious?" ”
"Naturally, I'm serious, otherwise why did I go half the way to Jinling and turn back?"
Qian Changyin laughed heartily: "Okay! Good! To be able to get such a good son-in-law, I am naturally happy to fulfill it! It's just ......," he asked, "have you asked Lingzun Lingtang what he meant?" ”
Xue Yuanhan replied: "You don't have to worry about this. My father passed away at an early age, and my mother accompanied my grandfather and grandmother in Tianjin. My marriage, as long as the prince opens his mouth, the elders are not allowed. ”
"Good! Good! "It's really a noble son-in-law who fell from the sky, and Qian Changyin is so happy that he has nowhere to put his hands and feet.
"Stay at my house tonight until tomorrow...... It's not etiquette just to say this, so let's ask a matchmaker to take a trip. ”
Xue Yuanhan smiled: "This is nature. It's late today, so I'll be cheeky to bother in the house for one night, and when I return to Jinling early tomorrow morning, I will invite the will of the prince to come to the house to propose marriage. ”
The wind moved and said
When my cousin changed his mind, Xiami played "I Can" to me: I can accompany you to see the stars? Need no more explanation? I'm going to be with you? I don't want to be separated from you again? How I want to be beautiful every time because of you
