9. Gathering

Not long after Xuanzhi Qi dragged Princess Pingle away, Old Lady Lu came.

He was relieved to see that Lu Xun's face had finally recovered a lot. Since he scolded Lu Xun two days ago because he ran out to tear his wound again, he didn't come over for two days, but today he finally couldn't help it, after all, it was his heart.

He blew his beard and snorted. "It is said that you have been honest in the past two days, motionless, and very well-behaved."

Lu Xun tugged at the corners of his mouth slightly. "Grandpa is worried."

"Uh-huh!"

Lu Xun looked at Old Lady Lu, and his eyes moved slightly. "It is said that grandpa promised a girl for the eldest brother."

Speaking of this, Old Lady Lu touched her gray beard with a little pity and shook her head. "But there is this, grandpa originally thought that the girl and Xun'er were the most suitable for you, and the original intention was to promise her to you. But I don't want to...... Alas......"

"Why did you promise him later?"

"It was the grandfather who didn't say the object when he met their father and daughter at that time, so they thought it was Yi'er, and then naturally the two of them were happy, and the grandfather gave the dowry to the wrong one."

Hearing this, Lu Xun's eyes flashed slightly, glowing with a faint cold light. He muttered: "Two lovers are happy......"

"Speaking of which, those two children are really good." Old Lady Lu said and became satisfied again. "It's good that this has made a marriage, Yi'er looks much more refreshed these days. His matter is solved so lightly, it's up to you. ”

Lu Xun lowered his eyes and fell silent.

Mrs. Lu thought he was dissatisfied with the marriage. Manipulation, sighed. "Grandpa once said that he would not interfere in the marriage of your two brothers, so as not to cause the same tragedy as your father and your mother. But Grandpa didn't expect the two of you to be so unenlightened, and you didn't have a favorite woman until you were twenty years old. Grandpa had no choice but to find it himself. Grandpa thought, those delicate and beautiful, fat and thin, but no strange girls, you can't look at them. I felt that a girl with more characteristics might be able to make you interested, so I stared at the girl of the Yin family, and after a careful understanding, I really felt that she was very suitable for you, but later she was taken by your brother. In any case, it was right to find the daughter of the Yin family. This proves that you two brothers should like strange women. ”

Lu Xun was still silent.

Speaking of Yin Lijiao, Mrs. Lu showed a loving look on her face. "That girl is informal, while it's still early, it's better to let her and Yi'er come over to get together with you and me, and it's lively."

"Good!" Lu Xun responded quickly.

"It's just ......," Old Lady Lu frowned slightly. It's been a few days since Xun'er returned, why hasn't your mother returned from the mountain? Mo didn't receive the message. ”

"Grandpa don't worry about this."

Old lady Lu looked at him and knew that he had always been assertive, and it was not a big deal, so he nodded and stopped asking about it. Just turn your head and command to one. "You go and find the girl of the Yin family to come here with the eldest prince."

"Yes!"

The Yamen of the Prefect of the Metropolis.

Yin Lijiao ran out with Shen Yayan in tow, and she turned around and stuck out her tongue inside. "Obediently, finally get rid of your sister. I didn't expect that once a person who is usually cold gets entangled, it will be so difficult to get rid of it. I knew I wouldn't have said that before. ”

Shen Yayan just blushed and remembered Yin Lijiao's opinions, and went to peek at Meng Shuqing's meeting. "Do you know where the place is?"

"I know, I've inquired, you follow me, and you can see that kid."

"Hmm!" Shen Yayan looked shy and timid, but her eyes were bright and full of expectation.

Yin Lijiao saw it and laughed. "Look at you, converge and converge your nostalgic appearance." As she spoke, she deliberately hugged her arm. "I'm getting goosebumps."

"Nonsense!" Shen Yayan was angry and ashamed when she was said, turned around and walked quickly.

"Huh? Come back, come back, not over there. ”

Mt. Gundoin.

Yin Lijiao leaned on the courtyard wall and looked inside carefully, and asked Shen Yayan below. "Did he tell you how many exams he had?"

Shen Yayan was worried. "We were swept apart so suddenly, and we didn't have time to say that."

"It's fine." Yin Lijiao waved her hand freely. "I'm good, I'll help you watch over here. If you see him, I'll get you. ”

"Good!"

Fortunately, they didn't wait too long, and in the next test, Yin Lijiao saw Meng Shuqing. She hurriedly got Shen Yayan up and said with a smile: "How is it?" Satisfied? ”

Shen Yayan was embarrassed to speak, but she just lay on it with difficulty and looked at Meng Shuqing, who was concentrating on the test. The last time I saw him, he looked more wolf, but this time he was dressed neatly, and he looked even more delicate and eye-catching. couldn't help but feel more admiration in her eyes.

After Meng Shuqing came out of the examination room, they secretly followed, and according to what Yin Lijiao said, look at where he lives, and have a good bottom in his heart, so as not to know nothing about other people, and it is not good to have an unclear heart-to-heart like this. At first, Shen Yayan disagreed, after all, this behavior was too bold. It's just that I can't force her, and I have some expectations in my heart, so I let her go.

Meng Shuqing's home was far away from the Gongyuan, and the two of them had been walking with him for a long time before they saw him enter a simple courtyard, and then a yellow, thin, and shabby woman came out of the house, which should be his mother.

Not to mention Shen Yayan, even Yin Lijiao felt sour in her heart when she saw it. I have to say that his family is really too poor. It seems that there should be only him and his mother in their family.

After that, they went around to the side of the courtyard and looked inside through the window, Meng Shuqing was burying his head in the book and continuing to read, working hard. Although their home is also shabby, it is fortunately clean enough and looks quite refreshing.

"This ancient of all evils." Yin Lijiao was angry in her heart, but she was helpless.

"What?" Shen Yayan wiped away her tears.

"Nothing."

"Who are you?" Suddenly, a woman stood in front of them and looked at them vigilantly and shouted, it was Meng Shuqing's mother. She was carrying a basket, not knowing whether to go shopping or picking vegetables, when she happened to pass by and saw them.

When Yin Lijiao heard this, she hurriedly pulled Shen Yayan and Meng Shuqing inside, and ran to the side before discovering them. She curled her eyes. "We're just passing by, passing by......" said Shen Yayan and was about to leave.

Meng Mu looked at their clothes suspiciously, and then looked at the window of her house, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, and then hurriedly stepped forward to stop them. "You're my son's friends?"

Shen Yayan was embarrassed to speak. And Yin Lijiao saw that the other party's eyes were wrong, and didn't think about words, just looked at each other.

Obediently, if Shen Yayan marries Meng Shuqing in the future, this mother-in-law alone will be a big one. Troublesome.

Meng Mu looked at Shen Yayan. "Is that you?" looked at Yin Lijiao again. "Or you? Have a good relationship with my son? "That look is clearly like seeing the God of Wealth.

"None of us are." Yin Lijiao pulled Shen Yayan and walked away quickly.

"Huh? Don't go! ”

On the way, Shen Yayan asked her suspiciously. "Why do you say that?"

"Let's talk slowly when we go back." Yin Lijiao felt that if Shen Yayan really wanted to marry Meng Shuqing, she still had to consider all aspects of the comprehensive factors. Poverty is not a big problem, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a big problem.

"Good! I listen to you for everything. ”

"Good!"

After that, they went home directly, and when they arrived at the Shen Mansion, they happened to meet Xiang Yi, the entourage of Father Yin who was leading Lu Xun to wait there. Shen Zhifu's family also stayed together.

"Daddy!" She jumped up and down. "What are you doing here?"

Unexpectedly, Yin's father scolded again. "Run, run, run...... I knew all day long that I was running out, and I also took the eldest lady of the Shen family with me. This time it's time to make the people of the Lu family wait, how big is your face? ”

She deliberately puffed out her face and winked playfully. "I've got the biggest face, that's the big." The way she looks at the moment is very funny.

"Nonsense." Father Yin glared at her, and said respectfully to Xiang Yi, who was snickering on the side: "Mr. Xiang, this is the little girl, she will go with Mr. Xiang." ”

"Okay, good ......" Xiang Yi put away his smile and coughed, and gestured to Yin Lijiao. Miss Yin, please come with me, the carriage is over there. ”

She walked over to Xiang Yi and deliberately bumped into him. The strength was not controlled, and Xiang Yi was almost knocked down, but fortunately, Yin's father supported him in time. Yin's father was angry. "You girl......" he was so angry that he didn't know what to scold.

Xiang Yi, who was hit, was stunned for some reason, and hurriedly dissuaded him. "It's okay, I'm fine." He had never seen a girl behave so casually, and he was really shocked.

Yin Lijiao lowered her head in embarrassment and touched her nose.

"Mr. Xiang is really sorry." Father Yin apologized and turned to her again. "Why don't you go with Mr. Xiang? Don't let the people of the Lu family wait for a long time. ”

"Oh!" She went over and bumped into the house again, this time lowering the force. "Hey! Actually, you're not serious, right? Tell me, why did you take me to Lu's house? ”

Xiang Yi, who was seen through, was also a little embarrassed. "The old lady of our family asked the girl to go over and get together with his old man, eldest son, and second son."

"Oh!" Yin Lijiao nodded, and couldn't help but think of Lu Xun's weird appearance, the whole person was not very good, and she wanted to refuse but knew that she couldn't help her, so she had to admit it.

As soon as she heard the words "second son", Shen Yashu beside Shen's mother looked unwilling and wanted to go along, but she couldn't find a reason. I regret that I didn't have a good relationship with Yin Lijiao at the beginning. But she could only watch people go to see the man she wanted to marry, and the resentment in her heart became bigger and bigger.

Suddenly, her gaze fell on the innocent Shen Yayan, and Shen Yayan was inexplicably looked at by her resentful gaze. "What's wrong with my sister?"

"Humph!" She glared at Shen Yayan and turned to leave.

Shen Zhifu's gaze was withdrawn from the angry Shen Yashu's back, and he said to Shen Yayan with a little bitterness: "Yayan! As an older sister, you don't only know how to play, and you have the opportunity to bring your sister more, you know? You grew up together, how can you isolate your sister? ”

Shen Yayan lowered her eyes, knowing what he meant, so she could only respond weakly. "Hmm!"

Governor Shen nodded in satisfaction. "Let's all go inside!"

The group turned around and walked in.
