Chapter 246: Asking for Marriage

The master and servant were talking from their hearts, and before they knew it, they went to the eaves of the porch, and saw a man wrapped in a long cotton robe and a well-dressed little messenger coming in through the hall.

She sighed, then stood still, waited for someone to approach, and said, "Aren't you Mr. Gu who gave me a birthday present that time?" ”

The person who came was Gu Wei, who also stood up when he saw her asking, took off his hat and saluted her, and said with a smile: "Fourth Miss has a good memory." ”

Wan Chun returned the salute and asked him again: "Why are you here this time?" ”

Gu Wei smiled, looked at Wan Chunjiao's beautiful face and said, "I'm here to find a pearl." ”

"Pearl?" Wanchun and Xiu'er were puzzled, running all the way from Shanghai to Jiujing, just for a pearl?

"What kind of pearl is that? Could it be that you regretted giving me the pearl and wanted to take it back? ”

Wan Chun's remarks were really funny and cute, Gu Wei's smile deepened, and he shook his head and said, "No, no, that is the coming-of-age ceremony given by our Rong family to the fourth young lady, how can there be any reason to take it back?" The pearl I am talking about today is only available to your Li family. ”

"Oh?" Wan Chun turned her head and thought about it, it is true that there are many treasures of the Li family, but she has rarely heard of the pearls that are so precious that the Rong family comes to ask for them. However, if you haven't heard it, it doesn't necessarily mean that you don't, the Rong family must be completely sure if you want it, but what do you want Mingzhu to do?

She asked Gu Wei, and Gu Wei smiled meaningfully: "Last time Miss Fourth had her birthday, our Rong family gave Miss Four a night pearl. In half a month, it is the birthday of the sixth young master of our Rong family, do you want your Li family to give one back! ”

Hey, stingy, I gave someone something away, and I was thinking of a way to go back, who didn't want you to send it at the beginning! Wan Chun secretly slandered him, and his mother dealt with it, so she said goodbye to Gu Wei and walked away with Xiu'er.

Gu Wei saw that she was more moving than when she came back last time, and sighed that Rong Guojun was really good-looking, so far away, she could still dig out a pearl in the deep sea of people.

He was glad to be in the no-man's place, and took his entourage to see Li Chengxu in the main room more and more firmly.

In the afternoon, Yu really asked someone to find a tailor to make clothes for the three sisters, Wan Chun Manzhi and Fang Fei, for the winter. Wan Chun measured the size, stood aside, watched the tailor tailor Fang Fei, and talked to Man Zhi, so he told Man Zhi about meeting Gu Wei at noon, and asked her: "Does my sister-in-law know what special pearls we have in our family?" ”

A special pearl? Man Zhizheng was comparing his own size with the clothes, and couldn't help but smile when he heard the words: "How can I know the things in your house clearly?" After speaking, he put down the clothes and asked Wanchun again, "What did Rong Jiate come to ask for a pearl?" ”

Wan Chun touched the feathers on the fabric, pouted and said, "I said that I was going to make a birthday gift for the sixth young master of their family." Sister-in-law, you said that their Rong family is ridiculous, the birthday gift given to me at the beginning was not what our Li family wanted, it was sent by their own Baba, and now they are under the banner of their young master of the Rong family, to ask for it back, and they also name and ask for the pearl of our Li family, and our Li family is not a pearl, if there is really no one, buy one for them casually, can they also see the origin? ”

"You can see it, fourth sister."

Manzhi seemed to have an understanding, pressed Wanchun's hand on the fabric, stared straight into her eyes and said: "The pearl they want from the Rong family is not as simple as an ordinary pearl, what they want...... It's you, Fourth Sister! ”

Thorn!

Wan Chun's fingers inadvertently swiped over the fabric, and her eyes widened and she looked at Man Zhi in disbelief: "Sister-in-law, what did you say?" I didn't get it. ”

"How can the fourth sister not understand, our Li family can be called the pearl of the palm except Zhong Qing is you, but now Zhong Qing has already married a wife, so is you the only one left in our family? They have a family, and what they want from beginning to end is you! They didn't come today for Mingzhu, but for the young master of the Rong family to come to the door to marry you! ”

"No, it can't be!"

Wan Chun shook his head and vigorously denied Manzhi's statement: "Our Li family has almost no contact with the Rong family, for no reason, why did they go north to marry me?" ”

"There is nothing that happens for no reason." Man Zhi clenched Wanchun's hand, "They must have planned to marry you for a long time." "Otherwise, I wouldn't have sent a night pearl to Wanchun on her birthday in June, just to lay the groundwork for today's events.

However, Wanchun still couldn't believe it, she broke free from Cayman's hand, turned around and ran towards her mother's yard.

Man Zhi couldn't catch up with her, standing in place stunned, Fang left Fang Fei alone in the house, hurriedly returned to Ninghui Garden, and hurriedly called Du Juan to tell her: "The Rong family wants to marry the fourth lady of the Li family, you tell your mother and eldest brother the news as soon as possible." ”

The cuckoo was also shocked when he heard this, and asked Manyi: "Isn't the fourth lady a friend of the fifth master of our family?" Well, why do you want to marry into the Rong family again? ”

She didn't mention Jing Dong, but when she mentioned him, Manzhi couldn't help but tell her two more words: "This matter is extremely important, except for your mother and eldest brother, you can't say anything, especially Jing Dong, let alone let him know." ”

Jing Dong's thoughts about Wanchun are known to passers-by. If he knew the Rong family's intentions, according to his temper, he would definitely make a big trouble, which would be very unfavorable to the Li family and the Zhang family.

Moreover, the marriage of the Rong and Li families seems to be just wishful thinking on the part of the Rong family, and as for what the Yu family and Li Chengxu think, they still need to be inquired into.

Man Zhi thought about it, and felt that it would be better to go to the front hall to eat with the Yu family in the evening.

Let's say that Wanchun ran all the way to her mother's room, tired and out of breath, but she didn't have time to breathe, and asked her mother in a row: "Mom, Rong family...... ...... That person, really...... Did you propose? ”

Yu raised her eyebrows, looked at her and said, "Who did you hear these words from?" ”

"Mom, just tell me yes or no?"

Wan Chun's eyes turned red.

Yu Shi looked at her once, and waved his hand to pull back Na Lin Caizhu and the others in the room, before saying to Wan Chun: "You come and sit down, I have something to say to you." ”

"Mom's ......"

Wan Chun's feet didn't move, just looking at Yu's attitude, she suddenly felt as if a basin of cold water was drenching her from head to toe.

"The Rong family is really coming to marry me, aren't they?" She glanced at Yu's face and sat down in her chair in disappointment, "Mom, you already knew, right?" Otherwise, she shouldn't have been so calm in the face of her inquiry. (To be continued.) )
