"Can you sleep, Miss?" Xianglan asked quietly through the curtain.

Xianghe waved her hand, and she couldn't tell whether it was worried or relaxed on her face, "Sleep." ”

"Those were given by the young master."

"Well, be quiet, let's go out and talk." Xianghe replied softly, reached out and pulled a handful of pandan, and walked towards the outside of the courtyard.

Xianglan tiptoed after Xianghe, as if she couldn't control her mouth, "Young Master Cousin really has a heart, knowing that our young lady is not used to drinking bitter tea, she specially sent these petals, and I saw that those petals were carefully selected before they were dried." ”

Xianghe paused at his feet, and looked back at Xianglan with some reproach, "Don't talk nonsense about these words in the future." ”

Xianglan was stunned and aggrieved, and muttered unconvinced, "I'm not talking nonsense, the gift of the young master is carefully prepared." ”

Xianghe sighed when she heard this, pulled Xianglan and walked a few steps quickly, and only then did she whisper when she left the door, "Young Master Cousin has a marriage contract." ”

"But ......"

"Listen to me, even if the young master doesn't have a marriage contract, it's impossible to be with the young lady, that's a prince, don't care how old he is, he's a prince, don't say whether our Lin Mansion is qualified to marry the palace, that is, you don't know what kind of character the young lady has? Miss can't stand the control of others the most, wouldn't letting her marry into the palace make her depressed all day long? Xianghe said earnestly, at the end, she rubbed Xianglan's head, "Miss is still young, there will be a wishful husband in the future, the old man loves Miss, the new lady also likes Miss in her heart, you don't have to worry too much, just remember that you can't always mention the young master in front of Miss in the future." ”

Xianglan's originally pursed mouth flattened, and she replied curtly, "I know, I also said this when I saw that the young master was really good to Miss." As soon as she said that, she saw Xianghe's general face and wanted to teach her a lesson again, so she hurriedly said, "I won't say anything in the future, and I promise not to mention a word." ”

Xianghe let Xianglan go.

When Lin Yuan woke up from a sleep, the golden sunlight was just sprinkled on her bed, and the early autumn sunlight was not scorching, but warm and suitable.

Xianghe Xianglan heard the movement, and the fish penetrated into the house.

Lin Yuan was in a very good mood and said with a smile, "It's okay in the afternoon, let's find our wife to go shopping in the garden together." ”

Xianghe Xianglan nodded her head, but she glanced at each other, and her heart was full of chuckles.

The two stepped forward to help Lin Yuan change her clothes, and Xianghe quietly laughed, "Miss, you had a good dream?" Why can't you smile from ear to ear? ”

Lin Yuan subconsciously touched her face, "Is there one?" You read it wrong. ”

Xianghe sighed in her heart, no longer said more, only stepped forward to clean up the bed, when she was tidying up the bedside, she saw the letter hidden under the pillow by Lin Yuan at a glance, she picked up the letter, and wanted to ask Lin Yuan where to receive it, but Lin Yuan took the letter back.

Xianghe looked at Lin Yuan in shock and worry.

Lin Yuan laughed dryly, "It's in the box." With that, she handed the letter to Xianghe.

Xianghe took it, lowered his head, but still couldn't hold back, and whispered in a voice as light as the wind, "Miss, the young master and the county lord have a marriage contract." ”

Lin Yuan's smiling face suddenly froze on her face, and the corners of her mouth slowly fell, and she lowered her head and fell silent.

After a while, in Xianghe's self-blame and Xianglan's worry, she raised her head and smiled, "What you said is that it's not good to keep this letter, and there will be gossip if people know about it, so let's burn it." The jade carved cat and the petals ......"

"Stay, it's given to you by my aunt." Xianghe answered.

"Well, it was sent by the maid of the Jiang Mansion ordered by the old aunt and grandmother." Lin Yuan said calmly.

The land of Mobei is the most bitter cold, but that is just the impression of ordinary people, the prosperous place is not much worse than the Beijing Division, and even because it is close to the border, there are foreign people walking everywhere on the street, which seems to be very lively.

But the famous families in the city are not as good as the capital teachers who are full of princes. The largest mansion in Mobei is General Zhennan's Jiang Mansion, but today the Jiang Mansion is quiet and abnormal, and everyone dare not breathe, only in the courtyard of the main courtyard, there is a sound of slapping.

"You say, do you still regret your marriage?!" Jiang Xingping, who looked elegant, rolled up his sleeves and rubbed his shoulders at this time, holding a bamboo stick in his hand, and slapped it the young man who was kneeling on the ground.

The clothes on the back of the young man were covered with bloodstains, but his eyes were red and his face was stubbornly raised, this young man was Ji Zongyu.

"I don't want to marry Siqi." Ji Zongyu replied word by word with a resolute face.

Jiang Xingping was even more furious, and a bamboo stick was whipped down again, but this time the bamboo bar was unbearable and broke with a crisp sound.

"Someone, bring me that whip!" Jiang Xingping angrily threw the broken bamboo strip on the ground and raised his voice to call people.

Not far away, the old aunt and grandmother were supported by Mama Lin and watched.

Mama Lin's face was full of unbearable heart, "Old lady, everyone will be broken if you continue to fight like this, if you have anything to say, you should hurry up and persuade the old lady." ”

The old aunt and grandmother frowned, and her eyes also flashed with unbearability, but she shook her head and said, "I can't persuade you, you can't regret your marriage, you can't let this matter take a step." ”

Mama Lin opened her mouth and wanted to persuade again, but was stopped by a look from her aunt and grandmother.

After a while, someone came over with a horsewhip, Jiang Xingping picked up the horsewhip, and asked again, "Do you regret your marriage?" ”

The same answer came out of Ji Zongyu's mouth, "I don't want to marry Siqi." ”

The sound of "snap" was louder than the sound of the bamboo strip slapping on the body, because of Jiang Xingping's strength, or because the body was already crumbling, Ji Zongyu was beaten and lay on the ground, he straightened his waist without pausing, raised his head, and his eyes were still firm.

Mama Lin couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and turned her face and her eyes were red.

The old aunt and grandmother also subconsciously raised their feet, but gritted their teeth and resisted the urge to step forward.

The anger in Jiang Xingping's eyes gradually subsided, and his distress was no less than that of his aunt and grandmother, but when he thought of the consequences of regretting his marriage, he raised his whip again and beat it ruthlessly.

I don't know how long it took to fight, Jiang Xingping didn't know how many times he asked, but Ji Zongyu's answer never changed.

"I don't want to marry Siqi." Over and over again, and even in the end, without Jiang Xingping asking questions, Ji Zongyu straightened his waist and said firmly.

Until Ji Zongyu was beaten again and fell to the ground, but he couldn't stand up straight.

The old aunt and grandmother couldn't hold back any longer, and stepped forward to hug Ji Zongyu.

"Grandma, I don't want to marry Siqi." Ji Zongyu looked at the old aunt and grandmother with pleading eyes, but firmly and muttered.

The tears of the old aunt and grandmother fell suddenly, although Ji Zongyu is not her own grandson, but she grew up with her, she has no children and no daughters, and she regards this nephew as her own child.

"Hey." Jiang Xingping sighed deeply that iron could not become steel, threw the horsewhip, and called his subordinates in a loud voice, "Go and ask for a doctor." ”
