Out of Songhe Hall, Zhou Mi'er went straight to the east courtyard of Yirong Yuan to find An Ruojin.

The two brothers Zhou Yongxuan got together with the cousins of the Hou Mansion.

An Ruojin was a female celebrity in the room, she looked at the half-embroidered four-petal plum, thinking about what she heard, what her brother said, her eyes unconsciously moistened.

Sometimes she wonders if her insistence is really right. If that person really has an interest in himself, why hasn't he expressed anything in the past four years, and can his wait really get his wish?

Tears ran down her cheeks and stained the handkerchief.

"Miss, Miss Zhou Biao has come to see you." Qiao Lu's voice suddenly sounded.

An Ruojin hurriedly turned her back, quietly wiped away her tears, and asked, "Why is Mi'er here?" Came alone, or with my cousin? ”

As he spoke, he stood up and went out to greet him.

Qiao Lu lowered her head, pretending not to notice her reddened eyes, and said softly: "The slave doesn't know, or the slave and maid will go to the front to inquire?" ”

"No need." An Ruojin shook her head, at this time she had walked to the door and saw Zhou Mi'er running happily.

"Sister Jin!" Zhou Mi'er jumped in front of An Ruojin and smiled toothlessly.

An Ruojin smiled and said angrily: "Look at you, the eldest is not too old, why is he not serious, the girl's family can't always be so presumptuous." ”

It's also that their sisters are close, otherwise they wouldn't have said such direct things.

didn't mind her joking admonition at all, Zhou Mi'er was still grinning, shaking her head and laughing: "I'm not always like this, it's really a great joy!" ”

She didn't talk nonsense, in front of outsiders. She is a dignified and elegant lady.

An Ruojin was amused by her and said, "You can always find something to be happy about." ”

added another sentence in my heart, which is really enviable.

Putting away the loss and sadness in her heart, An Ruojin pulled Zhou Mi'er into the door, and said affectionately: "Lan'er is not in the Hou Mansion. I'm feeling a lot more lonely, so you're here, but you have to stay with me. ”

"That's, I just came here to accompany you, thinking that Lan'er is not here, you must be uncomfortable." Zhou Mi'er took her hand. The two sisters went into the outer room together and sat down.

An Ruojin smiled gratefully, thinking that there was a happy event just now, so she asked, "You just said that there was a happy event, what is it?" Speaking out also makes me happy. ”

Speaking of which. Zhou Mi'er grinned and snickered, but she refused to say it directly, only said: "Soon you will know, I can't sue you without permission, because it hasn't really been decided yet?" ”

An Ruojin was confused, and asked a few more times, but Zhou Mi'er just covered her mouth and refused to say, and she couldn't ask. An Ruojin had no choice but to endure the curiosity in her heart and chatted with her about interesting things on the side.

The two talked about An Ruolan the most.

Chihiro was inside, and An Ruolan, who was buried in a pile of ledgers, sneezed coldly.

Mr. Yi, who was busy on the side, turned his head to look at her. Liang Liang said: "It's useless to pretend to be infected with the wind and cold, you have to read all the accounts today." ”

"......" An Ruolan was silent, she didn't pretend!

"It's really impersonal." muttered in a low voice, she honestly looked down at the account, and was afraid that Mr. Yi would hear her talk to herself, so he immediately changed the topic carelessly. said: "I think someone must be thinking about me." ”

Mr. Yi saw her little caution clearly. Hehe sneered: "Even if your father-in-law misses you, you will do things honestly for me." ”

See that it is useless to change the subject. An Ruolan also learned from him to sneer, and said on his lips: "If my father-in-law knew that Mr. treated me like this, he would definitely think of you, not me." ”

Hearing this, Mr. Yi raised his eyebrows, and said disapprovingly: "Since you call me sir, then I am your teacher, you should listen to me, not to mention-" He paused, shook the pen and said: "What's more, your father-in-law asked me to hone you, if you have a grudge, just wait for your father-in-law to come back and send it again." ”

couldn't talk about him, An Ruolan had to snort twice and didn't look at it.

However, she was destined not to concentrate today, and after only a while, she raised her head again and asked, "Sir, after reading the account today, can I go out for a walk tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?" ”

Mr. Yi looked at her with squinted eyes while flipping through the account book, deliberately misinterpreting her meaning, and said, "You want to inspect the shops again?" Well, the young owner cares so much about business, if the owner knows, he will be very happy. ”

An Ruolan was so angry that she slapped her hands on the table: "I'm going out to meet my sisters and friends!" Xiao Shao has already written me several letters! ”

"Oh." Mr. Yi pretended to come to his senses, shook his head in disappointment and sighed: "I thought that the young owner was finally willing to go up." ”

Hearing this, An Ruolan's forehead jumped with green tendons, dare to love her as a gentleman who is not doing her job?

When he saw it, he accepted it, and it was almost funny, Mr. Yi reversed Fang Cai's banter, and said with a straight face: "Speaking of which, there is still something to tell the young owner, although this matter has nothing to do with He Ji, but the young owner must be very concerned." ”

Hearing this, An Ruolan became interested and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Just this afternoon, Young Master An and Young Master Zhou had a big fight in Xiangting Building, and it was Young Master Zhou who made the first move, and the two seemed to have a dispute for Miss An's second time." Mr. Yi said unhurriedly.

"Really?!" An Ruolan's eyes widened in surprise.

Cousin Zhou would actually do it, and he was with his eldest brother, if Mr. Yi hadn't said it, she would definitely not believe it!

"Absolutely." Mr. Yi smiled mysteriously, "It is reported that Zhou Shangshu has taken his three children to the Wenxin Marquis Mansion to make amends, and in addition, it seems that he has plans to ask for marriage." ”

"Wooing?!" An Ruolan completely became a voice worm, and the expression on her face was nothing but shock or shock.

Mr. Yi didn't want to say more, pointed to the account book in front of her, and said, "Do things first." ”

Halfway through hearing "......", An Ruolan, who was completely aroused by her curiosity, almost wanted to smash the table, but she didn't dare, so she could only grit her teeth and do business.

Fortunately, Mr. Yi did not tease her anymore, and after she had calculated all the ledgers, processed all the letters, and stamped them, he told her all the written messages collected by the spies.

Holding a thick stack of letters in his hand, An Ruolan's eyelids jumped: "Who collected these?" ”

Even what she ate and drank at every meal every day was recorded in detail, she really wanted to ask, what spy could have such a ability?

"Naturally, it is the Qianji Building under the name of He Ji. You don't have to worry, although the Thousand Machines Building is an intelligence building, it will never reveal the secret privacy of any surveillance subject. "Mr. Yi's old god took a sip of tea in the ground, and it was really correct to let the young owner help him read the account book, otherwise where would he have the leisure to drink tea?

An Ruolan didn't know what was going on in his heart. Hearing this, I couldn't help but shudder, and I secretly felt terrifying.

However, it was the first time she heard that He Ji also had an intelligence building under his name, so she asked, "The Qianji Building is also being taken care of by Mr. Yi?" ”

"Definitely." Mr. Yi shook his head, "Although the Mingli of Qianjilou is under the name of He Ji, it is actually an independent store, and the owner of Qianjilou has some friendship with the owner. The two sides can only be regarded as cooperating, Qianjilou provides information for He Ji free of charge, and He Ji provides support for Qianjilou. ”

"Mutual benefit." An Ruolan shook his head, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "The head of Qianjilou is a person from the rivers and lakes, does he live here?" ”

Mr. Yi did not answer her. only said: "Why do children take care of so much, don't they want to go out?" Why don't you go back to your room and get ready? ”

An Ruolan muttered unconvinced: "When I am asked to do things, I don't always say that I am a child." ”

Mr. Yi coughed twice.

He didn't say anything, An Ruolan knew that he couldn't ask more, so he didn't talk anymore and went back to the room to prepare for tomorrow's trip.

For An Ruolan, today's Qianjilou is just a mysterious existence, and in a few years. Qianjilou was a lifesaver to save her and defend her in fire and water.

An Ruolan wrote a letter to Wei Shao, asking her to meet in the gold and silver building of Liyuwu the day after tomorrow, and she also made an appointment with the three sisters of the Hou Mansion. and Zhou Mi'er, she wanted to ask them about what Mr. Yi said, and then, she also prepared some gifts for her sisters.

On the other hand, Zhou Yuhan's family had dinner. He said goodbye and returned to Zhou's house.

On the carriage back, Meng Yuqing said: "My aunt and cousin-in-law are strongly in favor of this family business. Just ......"

She paused before sighing, "It's just that my cousin-in-law doesn't want to marry the two children so soon." Sister Lian'er will get married next month, and Wen Sheng and Sister Jin are having an unhappy relationship, so she is reluctant to Sister Jin, so she wants to wait until next year at the earliest. ”

"Next year?" Zhou Yongxuan frowned.

Zhou Mi'er muttered dissatisfiedly: "Sister Jin is sixteen, when will it be waiting, Aunt Cousin only thinks about Cousin Wensheng, why don't you think about Sister Jin!" It's Cousin Wensheng, I'm sorry Sister Jin! ”

Her voice was not loud, but several people present heard it, and they couldn't help but fall silent.

"I'm willing to wait, next year, next year." Zhou Yongxuan broke the silence.

"As long as Yongxuan agrees, this matter will be decided like this, and Gai Ming'er will invite a good matchmaker to go to the Hou Mansion to propose marriage, and then settle it first." Zhou Yuhan made the final decision.

The son himself is not in a hurry, what is he anxious about?

The head of the family had no opinion, and the rest naturally had nothing to say, so the matter was decided.

It was said that it was decided, but on the side of the Marquis of Wenxin, only Mrs. An and Murong knew about it, in order to promote this good thing, that night, Mrs. An and Murong talked to their respective husbands.

Old Marquis An was happy in his heart, but he still pretended to be not satisfied and said: "The Zhou family's family is worthy of our Hou Mansion, but Yongxuan's kid is afraid that he is not stable and mature enough, and today he and Brother Sheng's affairs are not right, this family business, I am afraid that I still have to consider it, and I am reluctant to let my beloved granddaughter entrust it to others." ”

How could Mrs. An not know that he was deliberately arranging a score, for fear of delaying her granddaughter's lifelong event, so she pretended to follow his words and said: "This matter really needs to be considered, but Yongxuan is not young, if it drags on for too long, he will probably decide on the next person." ”

She only said that the Zhou family intended to get married, and did not tell Meng Yuqing that Zhou Yongxuan's determination was to tell the old marquis, because she dared to use the agitation method like this.

The old marquis really hit the plan, and after a little hesitation, he said: "You can call the shots about this backyard matter." ”

Push everything to a clean spot in no time.

Mrs. An sneered in her heart, and her mouth still did not show the dew.

As for the Murong clan's side, it was better to solve it.

In the past two years, in addition to Murong Shi's wife, there is only one silent Aunt Jiang left, and An Shiting's relationship with Murong has become deeper and deeper, as long as it does not involve the front yard, Murong Shiting's decisions are all supported.

What's more, the Zhou family is indeed a very good home, An Shiting is also very satisfied with Zhou Yongxuan, this family affair can be said to be in line with his heart, and when Murong mentioned it, he immediately agreed.

The husband and wife talked about themselves at night without mentioning them.

The next day, Wei Shao received a letter from An Ruolan asking her to meet in the Jinyin Building, and jumped three feet high happily.

Wei Xing was a little moved, but when he heard that it was a gathering of several of their girls, he didn't agree, but he didn't say anything, but Wei Shao's personal maid Cuilian said: "Miss, Miss An Liu is also a marriageable age, and it won't be long before she should look at others, and it is indeed inconvenient for the young master to mix in the past." ”

This Cuilian is one of the maids who coaxed Wei Shao before and made Wei Shao disgusted with Wei Shao's marriage.

Hearing this, Wei Shao's face darkened and said, "How many mouths do you want!" ”

If she hadn't wanted Qin Yiqing to fight with these maids, she would have driven these unpleasant ones out of the Weiguo Mansion again!

Cuilian was busy pleading guilty in fear, and a pair of autumn eyes looked at the guard pitifully.

Wei Shao was disgusted when he saw her flattering style, snorted coldly, pushed Wei Xing forward, and said, "Brother, you accompany me to choose a few gifts, and I will give them to Ruolan." ”

Wei Xing has always been responsive to his sister's needs, even if he didn't know what the girl's family liked, but he still went to the warehouse with him.

Cuilian was left in place, and her eyes were cloudy.

For some reason, Miss's attitude towards her suddenly deteriorated a lot, coupled with Miss Qin's inexplicable stumbling in secret, she has been in dire straits these days, she is a little anxious, if she can't climb the big tree of the eldest young master again, she is afraid that she will be even more sad in the future.

Gritting her teeth, Cuilian had an idea in her heart.

On the appointed day, several people set off early and arrived at the gold and silver building of Liyuwu, because An Ruolan greeted the shopkeeper in advance, and as soon as An Ruojin and the others arrived, they were greeted in the private room on the second floor, which had been filled with hot tea and snacks, so that they could rest first.

An Ruolan was the latest to set off from the inner courtyard of Qianxunju, and when she arrived, the other five people were already chatting enthusiastically.

"Even if I don't come, you won't care." An Ruolan said sour words.

When everyone saw her coming, they laughed and pulled her to the table and sat down, surrounded her, and said, "What else do you say, you are the host of the treat, but you came the latest, we don't find something to do, is it possible to be in a daze at the beams of the house?" ”

An Ruolan grinned and said, "That's good, as soon as I saw the door, I saw a group of stupid geese with their necks up." ”

"Looking for a fight!" The sisters pretended to be angry, and laughed out loud. (To be continued) R580
