On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the old Marquis was finally willing to return to the Hou Mansion, and An Shiting and An Shiyan went to pick him up, but after the second year of junior high school, he returned to the other courtyard.

When it came to An Ruolan's family affairs, the old marquis still didn't have a good face, but he didn't say anything against it, Wei Guogong and his wife came to the door with gifts, he greeted him indifferently, and then went back to the room to tinker with pills, and An Shiting's brothers had to explain to their future in-laws with a smile.

Now that the old marquis is obsessed with alchemy, it is well known to everyone, and the husband and wife of Wei Guo can naturally understand it, and it is impossible for them to have a grudge against the An family because of this matter.

It's just that I can't say a few more words in private.

Duchess Wei Guo didn't understand it very much, and said, "Those things that the gods are talking about are so mysterious? Are those stone flowers and plants really the same as the book says, can they practice the elixir of immortality? ”

How could Wei Guogong know, he only said: "The left and right will not hinder us, don't care." ”

Duchess Wei Guo was also curious, so she didn't ask more when she heard this, and said: "A few days ago, I went into the palace to ask the Queen Mother for peace, and I saw that the Queen Mother was not very good, and I heard that the emperor had been too favored by Concubine Wan recently. ”

Concubine Wan is King Gong's maiden cousin, and now that she is favored, the Queen Mother is naturally worried.

Hearing this, Wei Guogong was silent and said: "It's not easy for us to ask about the affairs of the harem as courtiers, after all, which woman is the emperor's freedom to favor." ”

"There's nothing wrong with saying that." Duchess Wei Guo wanted to speak and stopped, she was a little worried about the queen.

Wei Guogong knew that she still had a lot to say, so he deliberately diverted the topic: "Instead of worrying about the emperor's family affairs, it is better to think about when to go to the Wenxin Marquis Mansion to ask for an appointment, and it is not a way to drag it out like this." ”

"You think I don't want to?" Duchess Wei Guo sneered and said, "You go and ask the eldest young master, he has been procrastinating, I don't know what he is thinking." ”

Wei Guogong smacked his tongue and said: "No matter the eldest young master, the marriage event is the words of the matchmaker of the parents, and he can't act arbitrarily, you will prepare a gift tomorrow, and while you are still free, the family will go to the Hou Mansion to ask for an appointment." ”

"It's a good idea, but if the eldest young master loses his temper, you can bear it." Duchess Wei Guo stroked her palms and smiled.

Wei Guogong gave her a reassuring look.

The guard sentence was calculated by his parents without knowing it.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the Wei family of four went out together and brought a large number of gifts to the Wenxin Marquis Mansion, and Wei Guogong did not beat around the bush and directly mentioned the marriage of the two young people.

Wei Jian didn't know at first, but when he heard this, he almost squirted out a sip of tea, and wanted to refute it, but he didn't know how to speak, so he could only be anxious on the side.

Duchess Wei Guo said: "I was going to come to ask for the date a year ago, but I just thought that Ruolan had a deep relationship with you, and she would definitely be reluctant to marry too early, so I postponed the time." Now, I'm not afraid of everyone's jokes, it's so rare, I can't wait to marry someone into the door as soon as possible. ”

He smiled as he spoke.

This is very reasonable.

Although An Ruolan didn't say it explicitly, Murong guessed that An Ruolan had discussed it with Wei Xing and asked Wei Guofu to come to ask for a later date, and now that she heard the words of Duchess Wei Guo, she didn't feel a little apologetic, and said: "The two children are not young, they should get married as soon as possible, since Mrs. Wei has already mentioned it, let's set a date." ”

The daughter's marriage is generally decided by the mother, and An Shiting didn't say much.

Duchess Wei Guo didn't expect it to be so simple, and immediately smiled, and said: "I have already asked someone to calculate the date, the ninth day of the second month is an auspicious day for marriage, what do you think about this day?" ”

Murong calculated the day, it was indeed a good day, so he turned his head and said: "This day is good, I will go and ask my mother what I mean, Grandpa Guo and Duchess Guo wait for a while." ”

As he spoke, he got up and blessed himself and went to the backyard.

Seeing this, Wei Xing became more and more anxious, he was very conflicted in his heart, he wanted to marry An Ruolan as soon as possible, but also worried that going against An Ruolan's wishes would make her angry.

Of course, it was impossible for the Murong clan to just ask the old lady what she meant, and when she came to the old lady, she also wanted to ask An Ruolan what she meant.

At that time, An Ruolan was teaching Bailing to read, and when she saw Murong suddenly coming over, she was quite puzzled, and when she heard Murong Clan's intention, she was instantly embarrassed.

It took a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "Is it what Mrs. Wei meant?" ”

Murong thought for a while, nodded and said, "Come to think of it, yes, the kid hasn't spoken, looking at the restless, I don't know if I came here to ask for an appointment today." ”

Of course, he didn't dare to come to the deadline, because she had said that he was not allowed to come without her permission, and he didn't have the courage to do so.

An Ruolan snorted proudly in her heart, but then she was a little unhappy, feeling that Wei Xing didn't want to marry her.

Her eyes flickered, and she said, "Mother, you go and discuss with your grandmother first, as long as you have no opinion with your grandmother, I will listen to your grandmother." ”

Murong didn't think much about it, smiled, and said, "Okay, I'll go and discuss with your grandmother." ”

He immediately got up and left.

As soon as she left, An Ruolan called Bai Ling and explained: "You go to the front, invite Young Master Wei and Miss Wei to the Plum Garden, and say that I want to meet them, you know what to say, right?" ”

Bai Ling nodded again and again, patted his chest and promised, "Miss don't worry, I know how to do it." ”

An Ruolan smiled slightly, "Go quickly." ”

Bai Ling answered the call and ran out of the door.

Although Bai Ling doesn't want to do anything, his brain is not stupid, and he has learned some things after following An Ruolan for many years, so such a trivial matter is not a problem.

When he arrived at the living room in the front yard, Bai Ling entered the hall door generously, first greeted everyone, and then said: "Miss heard that Young Master Wei and Miss Wei are here, and she is very happy, so she sent a slave maid to invite Young Master Wei and Miss Wei to the plum garden to enjoy the plum blossoms." ”

Hearing this, An Shiting smiled and said, "It's good to enjoy the plum blossoms, the plum blossoms in the garden are blooming just right, so you can go around." ”

Wei Guogong thought that the two brothers and sisters had nothing to do here, so it was better to go out for a walk, so he bowed his head and said, "Go ahead." ”

Wei Shao immediately cheered, she couldn't sit still for a long time.

The two siblings saluted and said goodbye, took their cloaks and followed Bailing out.

On the way, Wei Xing said to Wei Shao with a cold face: "You don't like to enjoy plums, what did you do in the past, let's go play elsewhere, don't you have a good relationship with the fourth young lady, you might as well go to her house and sit." ”

Wei Shao pursed his mouth, "I don't like to enjoy plums, but I want to talk to Ruolan, if you don't want to come with me, you can play elsewhere, it just so happens that the brothers of the An family are here, you can go to them." ”

"......" Wei Xing pursed the corners of his lips and sulked, feeling that his sister was not enlightened for the first time.

Bai Ling, who was walking in front, heard the words of the two brothers and sisters, and couldn't help but laugh so much that his shoulders trembled.

Soon arrived at the plum garden, An Ruolan was already waiting in the pavilion at the entrance.

"Ruolan!" Wei Shao waved his hands and shouted happily, and ran towards the pavilion in three steps and two steps.

The corners of the guard's mouth tightened, and he stepped a little lower, and directly swept into the pavilion with light skills.

"Ahh Brother, you actually cheated! Wei Shao, who was one step behind, jumped to his feet in anger, Wei Xingli ignored her, and looked straight at An Ruolan with his eyes.

An Ruolan avoided his overly enthusiastic and direct gaze, stepped forward to grab Wei Shao with a smile, and said with a smile: "Okay, we don't have the same knowledge as him." He pulled Wei Shao down the steps and walked into the courtyard.

Wei Shao snorted proudly, deliberately grabbed An Ruolan's arm, and turned around to bared his teeth at Wei Xing in demonstration.

The guard tilted his head awkwardly.

An Ruolan pretended not to see the small movements of the two siblings, and walked forward with a smile.

Wei Shao is not an uninteresting person, he deliberately pestered An Ruolan to show "affection" for a while, and after Wei Xing's face turned blue with anger, he ran around in the plum garden by himself, giving An Ruolan and Wei Xing space to be alone.

As soon as Wei Shao ran away, Wei Xing hurriedly went up and grabbed An Ruolan's hand tightly, and his slightly hard fingers declared his dissatisfaction.

An Ruolan pursed her lips and smiled, scratching his palm soothingly, Wei Xing only felt itchy, and his hands were even harder, but he also controlled the strength, and he was reluctant to hurt her.

The two walked hand in hand in the plum garden, and the atmosphere was quiet and beautiful.

Walking in front of a Longyou plum, An Ruolan chose a plum blossom and pinned it into the guard's clothes, and said with a faint smile: "You have the straightest temperament, and this Longyou plum branch is the most curved, if you can complement each other, it must be much smoother when encountering bottlenecks." ”

Wei Xing understood the meaning of her words, paused, plucked a cluster of red plums and pinned them behind her ears, and said: "You are the proud snow red plum that I always open in my heart, if you are always by my side, I am willing to learn anything." ”

I don't know if the flowers stained the pretty cheeks red, or the blush on the face intoxicated the flowers, the flowers and faces complemented each other, and he was dumbfounded.

Leaning over the slightly opened, delicate vermilion lips, the guard carefully tossed and turned, and then tentatively deepened, until the two breaths overlapped and their breaths merged.

After the kiss, An Ruolan leaned on Wei Xing's arms and gasped softly, Wei Xing gently stroked the soft green silk on the back of her head, and asked in a dumb voice: "Marry me, okay?" ”

An Ruolan trembled slightly, and her face was hot.

She pretended to be puzzled and said, "Aren't we already engaged?" ”

As she expected, she panicked when she heard this, and hurriedly explained: "I want to, I want to ......"

However, his face turned red, and he didn't say the following words.

An Ruolan couldn't help laughing, pretending to be indifferent and withdrew from his embrace, but before she could make the next move, Wei Xing pulled her back into his arms violently, hugged her tightly with both hands, and said loudly: "I want to marry you as soon as possible!" ”

Shouting that the whole person is like cooking.

"Poof-" An Ruolan couldn't help it and burst out laughing.

Wei Xing felt even more embarrassed, grabbed her finger and brought it to her lips, pecked and kissed and said in a trembling voice: "Don't laugh at me, Ruolan, I love you, although I can't speak, I love you." ”

The scorching breath sprayed on his fingertips, and An Ruolan was infected by the hot breath, and she couldn't help blushing and heartbeating.

Her heart was hot, she couldn't help but redden, turned around and hugged him, sniffed and sobbed: "Although I am very good at talking, I also like you." ”

Hearing this, Wei Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he was at a loss, so he had to bow his head again and seal her eloquent mouth.

An Ruolan smiled and raised her hand around his neck, responding enthusiastically and deepening the kiss.

The shadows of the flowers are heavy, the snow is white, the love is scorching, and the tightly interlocking ten fingers have never been released.

Wei Shao held the plum branch used to cover it, stuck out his tongue and quietly walked away.

The Wei family came to ask for an appointment, of course, they had to focus on business, and after walking around the plum garden twice, Wei Xing took Wei Shao to prepare to go back to the front hall.

He said to An Ruolan: "My mother means that it is set on the ninth day of the second month, if you are not satisfied, just say, we will recount the days." ”

An Ruolan pinned the strands of hair hanging down her ears behind her ears, and with this action, her fingertips gently stroked the plum blossoms in her ears.

She shook her head and said, "It's all right, it depends on what my mother and grandmother mean." ”

Wei Xing stared at her soft side face, his heart was soft, and he said softly: "You wait for me." ”

An Ruolan's face flushed suddenly, and she nodded shyly.

Wei Shao covered his mouth and snickered.

Seeing off the two brothers and sisters, An Ruolan took Sixi and Bayuan, who were waiting outside the garden, back to the room, and walked all the way before the flush on her face subsided.

Sixi grinned and teased: "Miss, the plum blossoms are good-looking, I see that you are going to linger." ”

The temperature on his face, which had finally disappeared, rose a little.

Bayuan covered his lips and smiled: "In my opinion, it's not that the flowers are good-looking, it's the people who are good-looking!" ”

Seeing An Ruolan's face getting redder and redder, the two laughed.

An Ruolan blushed with anger, stomped her feet and said, "Okay, you guys actually made a fool of me, see how I punish you when I go back!" ”

"Don't, Miss spare your life!" Sixi and Bayuan pretended to be scared and shouted, but they still laughed.

An Ruolan didn't bother to pay attention to the two bold maids, and ran back to the room in shame and annoyance.

The two in the back laughed even more.

When Wei Xing and Wei Shao returned to the living room, the Murong clan had already returned, and when they saw them, Duchess Wei Guo smiled and said happily: "It's just right, it's time to discuss the matter of welcoming relatives." ”

The implication is that Mrs. An has agreed.

Wei Xing's eyes immediately lit up, and his face turned red with excitement.

Seeing his honest reaction, everyone in the An family smiled with relief.

Welcoming the marriage was originally arranged by the man, but because the Weiguo Mansion did not know the customs of Shengjing, in order to avoid mistakes, he wanted to discuss it with the An family, and also wanted to see what other requirements the An family had.

The dowry given by the Weiguo Mansion is rich enough, and it can be seen that it has also put a lot of thought into it, and the An family is already very satisfied, so there are no more requirements, just a little-

Several ladies almost said in unison: "As long as the guard punishment is good for Ruolan, we have no other requirements." ”

Hearing this, Wei Xing was like a soldier who was ordered, and solemnly promised: "I guarantee with my life that I will not let Ruolan suffer the slightest grievance." ”

On the battlefield, in addition to winning the battle, it is important to save your life, this is the concept of Xiang Yeyan's teaching, and his soldiers all believe in this, so the guard swears with his life, which shows his sincerity.

The concubines of the Murong clan were satisfied.

The next step is to tell the Wei family about the customs and habits of welcoming relatives in Shengjing.

Murong listed several concubines one by one, and the Duchess of Weiguo kept them in mind one by one, seeing her like this, everyone in the An family was full of emotion, and the Weiguo Mansion had a pair of children, no wonder the Duchess of Weiguo was so dedicated.

Although it was a bit unexpected, in the end the result was good, and the guard was full of joy, and his gratitude and respect for his parents deepened. R1152
