While the two were talking, Xie Zhili walked in. Wang hurriedly stood up and gave Xie Anmin a look by the way, and Xie Anmin stopped talking.

"Master, why didn't you let the maid report when you came, my house is a mess and hasn't been cleaned up yet." Wang said softly.

Xie Zhili glanced around the room, frowned, and asked, "Why didn't Seventh Sister accompany you?" Why is this kid still so ignorant. ”

Wang smiled and said, "It's okay, the seventh sister is still young and ignorant, and it will be fine in two years." But she never mentioned that she asked Xie An to go back.

"What's small, I'm about to get married! With this temperament, when I arrived at Prince Li's Mansion, I would lose the face of our Xie family! If you are tolerant of her, if you are someone else's family, you will be punished a long time ago. The more Xie Zhili spoke, the more angry he became, and called the big girl Crescent Moon beside Wang, "Go."

Seventh sister, just say that I said it, let her not come out these days, copy the "Female Commandment" in the house, and wait to get married. ”

This time, the Wang family stopped interceding, made a look, and Xinyue took the order and left.

In this way, Xie An was also inexplicably grounded.

"Girl, in the past, the grounded master always said a deadline, but this time he didn't say it. If the old man is busy and forgets the girl, won't the girl be able to get out? Ai Yan said worriedly on the side.

Xie An waved his hand disapprovingly, continued to look at the notebook in his hand, and said, "Call Bai Lian in a while." ”

……

Two days later, it was the day of the wedding gift in the palace of Prince Li.

The person who contacted the Xie Mansion before had always been Wang Yong, the housekeeper of Prince Li's Mansion, so after the appointment of the Xie family this time, I took it for granted that it was still Wang Yong.

Master Xie Zhishu and his wife and the third master Xie Zhili and his family were chatting in the flower hall, and the little guy came in in a panic to report, but it was Prince Li himself who came with someone!

Xie Zhishu and Xie Zhili hurriedly stood up to greet them, and Wang asked Xie Anmin to go back. Xie Anmin originally planned to send the hired person back to come, but when he heard that Prince Shili was here in person, he became curious, what is the person Xie An is also going to marry, it is best to have small eyes and crooked mouth.

Thinking of this, Xie Anmin lied to the Wang family: "Mother, my daughter wants to see Prince Li." “

How can a mother not understand her daughter's thoughts, and it is nothing to think about seeing each other secretly, so she asked the eldest lady to agree, and asked the maid to move the screen and put it behind, Xie Anmin sat behind the screen and could hear the conversation in the house.

After a while, Master Xie and the others came in with Xiao Xiaohan. Everyone saluted, and Xiao Xiaohan sat on the main seat. Wang Yong was in charge of the dowry, and at this time he had already arranged for someone to move the dowry box to the courtyard outside the flower hall, and put a yard full of them, blocking the road tightly, and it was difficult to walk over.

After doing this qiē, Wang Yong took out the dowry list, walked into the flower hall, and sang and read it loudly. Xiao Xiaohan didn't speak, just drank tea with a teacup, as if this qiē had nothing to do with him.

The sheer number of dowries is jaw-dropping. There are common official dowry gifts such as wedding cakes, seafood, and three animals, and even combs and rulers given by the people, and several loads of gold jewelry alone, not to mention the calligraphy and painting of famous people in silk and satin. Wang Yong actually took a cup of tea to read the gift list.

Xie Anmin listened to Wang Yong singing the dowry behind the screen, and it was nothing at first, but the more he listened to it, the more angry he became. Why is Xie Anyi so much dowry, she has never seen a married woman receive so many things when she is so old. But after thinking about it, what's the use of more dowry, she doesn't want to marry a lot of older men! The man was also married, and she was also a steproom. Xie Anmin comforted himself like this, but forgot that his mother was also a steproom.

"What does Master Xie think of the dowry, if it is not enough, this king will add more." A low, magnetic sound pulled Xie Anmin back from his thoughts.

Prince Li's "Lord Xie" didn't know if it was said to Xie Zhishu or Xie Zhili, the two looked at each other, and finally Xie Zhili replied respectfully: "The prince's dowry is excellent." ”

"Hmm." Xiao Xiaohan squeezed out of his nose and ignored him. He looked around for a moment and asked casually, "Why didn't this king come to see Miss Seven today?" Last time, it was this king who took the liberty of abruptly abrupt the beauty, and this time he took the opportunity to apologize for the bridal gift. ”

How could I see that Xie An is still grounded!

Xie Zhili didn't know how to answer when he heard this, and the Wang family on the side hurriedly took the words: "This ...... It's not good to see each other before they get married. Besides, if the prince said something to the seventh sister, it must be for her good, how can the prince apologize. ”

"Knock", Xiao Xiaohan suddenly put down the teacup, and the bottom of the cup slammed on the table, making a sound. Suddenly, the entire flower hall fell silent, and the people only felt that the atmosphere was very depressing, and they didn't even dare to pant loudly.

"Who is this?" Xiao Xiaohan asked Xie Zhili.

It was obviously introduced when he saluted just now, but Xiao Xiaohan still pretended not to know him, and made it clear that he would not buy Wang's account.

Xie Zhili hurriedly gave the Wang family a look, asked her not to say much, and said respectfully: "Back to the prince, this is the wife of the lower official, the Wang family, that is, the stepmother of the seventh sister." ”

Xiao Xiaohan put on a look of what he had just remembered, and said, "I wonder when Miss Seven will come over?" It was as if I hadn't heard Wang speak at all.

The grandmother who had not spoken for a long time on the side hurriedly asked the eldest maid Jasmine to go to Meihan Courtyard to invite Xie An to come.

Xie Anmin behind the screen was already so angry that her face was hideous, she just heard Xiao Xiaohan's voice, she only felt that it sounded good, and she was curious for a while, so she quietly poked her head out. What caught my eye was a young man in a dark robe, he was tall and dignified. And this person is actually going to marry Xie Anyi's powerful Prince Li! She had secretly seen the portrait of Meng Junchi, young and handsome, and was attracted at that time, and vowed to snatch him from Xie Anyi. Now when he saw Prince Li, he felt that he was more handsome than that Meng Lang, and he had a mature charm that Meng Lang did not have, and instantly compared his future husband Meng Junchi.

Why is Xie An better than her in everything? Xie Anmin was unwilling, and wrinkled the handkerchief with both hands.

"Say hello to the prince." There was another sound outside the screen, this was Xie An also saluting Prince Li. The voice was crisp and pure, like a clear spring flowing into people's hearts.

But this voice changed in Xie Anmin's ears, she couldn't help it, and poked her head out from behind the screen again, looking at Xie Anyi viciously.

Suddenly, a sharp gaze looked at her.
