Chapter 130: Asking for a Concubine(1)
Bao Ge's kneeling really startled everyone in Forsythia Courtyard, but Xiao Jinyu has always been strict in disciplining people, which is well known in the Shuai Mansion.
Seeing Bao Ge kneeling like this, it was not a problem, Xiao Jinxuan stood up and personally wanted to help the other party up.
But who knew that as soon as he touched the arms of the treasure pigeon, the other party let out an "oops", and his face also showed pain.
Seeing this, Xiao Jinxuan wrinkled beautifully, and didn't say much, she directly lifted the sleeves of the treasure pigeon, anyway, there is no man present now, and she is not afraid of damaging the other party's innocence.
But when the sleeves were lifted, the arms covered with bruises and bruises were exposed to everyone's eyes, Xiao Jinxuan's expression was still very calm, but the Shen family on the side couldn't bear to look away.
After carefully examining the other party's bruises, Xiao Jinxuan asked in a calm tone: "Baoge, how did this injury on your body come about, but my sister-in-law hit it." ”
The pigeon retracted his hand behind his back in a panic, and then shook his head vigorously.
"Miss Jinxuan, don't ask again, it's the treasure pigeon who is stupid, he fell and injured himself, and it has nothing to do with my young lady, you better go to the living room with me, I beg you."
Seeing that what Bao Ge said was against her will, Xiao Jinxuan didn't ask after all, after all, everyone has their own way of living, she is not Guanyin who saves the world, and she can't help everyone.
But remembering that in her previous life, when she was young, she was often beaten by Mother Bai when she was in Meizhuang, and then like today's treasure pigeon, she didn't dare to say that she knew it with anyone, and immediately Xiao Jinxuan's heartstrings were still touched.
Motioning for Bao Ge to stand up, Xiao Jinxuan waved her hand and called Baizhu over, and then said with a smile:
"Bao Ge, it's okay if you want me to go with you, but you go down with Baizhu first, and let her help you finish the medicine on the injuries on your body, and it's not too late for us to leave."
Hearing this, Bao Ge was stunned for a while, until Bai Zhu stepped forward and grabbed her in a friendly manner, Bao Ge's eyes were slightly red, and he glanced at Xiao Jinxuan gratefully, and silently went down to take medicine with Bai Zhu.
At this time, Shen on the side looked at Xiao Jinxuan with a smile and said with great relief:
"Your child is kind-hearted, but I'm afraid of the injuries of the treasure pigeon, if all the medicine is good, but it will take a lot of time, and it will be too late to go back, and I'm afraid a severe beating is indispensable. Jinyu's kid is really ruthless, he looked dignified and delicate in the past, but he didn't want to treat his subordinates so harshly. ”
Xiao Jinxuan had already put the flower basket away and dusted off the petals stuck to her body, and then said with a chuckle:
"What my aunt said is very true, so Jinxuan should go to the main hall first, so that the treasure pigeon can be drugged and not punished."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Jinxuan said goodbye to the Shen family, and then walked to the main hall of the guest with Zhu Xin.
As for Chi Ling, who has always been with her, a few days ago she said that she had something important to do, so she said goodbye and left, and now she is not in the Shuai Mansion, but as for when, the other party did not say, Xiao Jinxuan naturally would not interfere with the question.
When she arrived outside the main hall, before she went in, Xiao Jinxuan saw that all kinds of dowry gifts wrapped in red satin were almost blocked by the door, but after a general look, it was estimated that there would be more than 20 carts of objects.
This is just a marriage proposal, whether it will be successful or not, this Qian Yunhong will make such a generous move, if this is really a marriage contract, then on the day of the wedding, this Huai'an Houfu will not prepare more than 100 cars of dowry.
Thinking like this in her heart, Xiao Jinxuan entered the main hall, and as soon as she entered, she saw a matchmaker wearing red and green, standing in the center of the hall, holding a wedding booklet, and reporting the name of the dowry flower in the same way.
The man brings the dowry and the matchmaker, and then the matchmaker will carry the type and quantity of the dowry, and read it to the woman's family in person.
Xiao Jinxuan came in and didn't interrupt the matchmaker, but after meeting the elders, she sat down next to Xiao Jinyu.
Qian Yunhong, who was sitting opposite her, nodded lightly when he saw her coming, Xiao Jinxuan smiled in return, and said hello.
Since the farewell of Guanyin Academy, Xiao Jinxuan and Qian Yunhong have never been, and now they are the first time they have seen each other after returning to Beijing.
At this time, Qian Yunhong has also changed a lot compared to before, not only wearing a purple and gold crown hat on his head, symbolizing the position, but his expression is a little less frivolous and humble, but he is more confident and calm.
Now sitting firmly in the main hall, occasionally chatting and laughing with the old lady, it is also decent, and it is indeed quite generous.
Obviously, without the suppression of the two mountains of Huayang and Qian Ming, Qian Yunhong, the new marquis, is still living a pretty good life today.
Xiao Jinxuan sipped tea, quietly paying attention to Qian Yunhong's changes, and Xiao Jinyu on the side had also been observing her.
Seeing that this sister-in-law's gaze stayed on Qian Yunhong, her fiancé, from the moment she came in, Xiao Jinyu immediately came over, and said with a smug eyebrow:
"Sister doesn't need to look at it, even if you are looking at it, Hou Ye will not look at you, people are now Huai'an, my sister still sees her identity clearly, but don't think about anything wrong, save it and add jokes when the time comes."
As soon as she heard this, Xiao Jinxuan raised her eyebrows, turned her head to look at Xiao Jinyu, and looked at this sister-in-law, who smiled so unexpectedly, she didn't say anything, but suddenly thought of the pity of the maid who was desolate in death.
thought that the mercy was pregnant with Qian Yunhong's flesh and blood, but this little marquis, in order not to be implicated, killed his own woman and child with his own hands.
Xiao Jinxuan is really curious, such a mean and unkind person, when facing Xiao Jinyu, he can have a little truth in it, but he just likes the power of the Shuai Mansion.
In the previous life, Ji Lingfeng wanted to marry the daughter of the Xiao family, and now Qian Yunhong wants to marry Xiao Jinyu, in fact, they are both the same reason, these two are by no means lifelong lovers, but they only come to propose marriage for their own interests.
Therefore, although Xiao Jinyu smiled proudly, her words were really annoying, but Xiao Jinxuan didn't say anything this time, and she fought back sarcastically.
Because in her eyes, now this sister-in-law is simply a poor worm who wants to jump into the fire pit, and while the other party is still laughing, let her laugh more.
Xiao Jinxuan believes that once Xiao Jinyu and Qian Yunhong really become relatives, with the cold-blooded and ** nature of this Hou Ye, the day when Xiao Jinyu suffers and suffers is not far away.
And Xiao Jinyu saw that today, no matter what she said, this sister didn't get angry or ignore her except for a light smile, and immediately lost interest, snorted and sat down again.
After a while, the matchmaker closed the dowry book with a smile on his face, and then approached the old lady with a flattering face, waved the red rusty handkerchief in his hand, and said with a smile on his face:
"Ancestor, Mrs. Song, I have been protecting people for a lifetime, and I have never seen such a generous shot at Hou Ye, it can be seen that he must be in love with your granddaughter, and in the future, he will love Baitou, and the husband will sing with his wife, and you will rely on this family business when you are old."
It is said that the mouth of this matchmaker can say that the ugly is beautiful, and the dead are alive, Qian Yunhong is not bad, but now he is being praised by this Song mother-in-law, and the old lady who originally belonged to this grandson-in-law, how can there be any reason.
"You bothered to have a Lao Song matchmaker, the old body can be regarded as watching Yunhong's child grow up, my third son married the daughter of the Qian family back then, and now Jinyu is marrying into the Hou Mansion, our Qian and Xiao families are also considered to be close to each other, such a good match made in heaven, the old body is naturally happy to see it."
But who knows, Mrs. Song, who was still smiling, looked stiff when she heard Xiao Jinyu's name, and then hurriedly glanced at Qian Yunhong, seeing that this Hou Ye didn't mean to look at it, she coughed dryly twice, and then said with some hesitation:
"Ancestor, Miss Jinyu is a descendant of the Shuai Mansion, and she is naturally a top-notch girl in the Beijing Division. But your other granddaughters, they are all more ashamed than Hua Jiaosai Hibiscus, and Mingyue is also ashamed. Although this Miss Jinyu has also reached the age of marriage, today's mother-in-law and I are here for the big media of Hou Ye and Miss Jinxuan. As for Miss Jinyu, as long as the old lady has a favorite grandson-in-law, I am willing to run errands for you and try my best to match. ”
Mrs. Song's words don't look beautiful, but she is also very nervous in her heart.
You must know that the relationship between the big families is complicated, so the so-called matchmaker courtship is just for outsiders to see, and the two families will generally pass the gas first and deal with the interest disputes clearly, which will make the man bring the matchmaker to come.
After all, the children of the great family are not like ordinary people, how can they really like the young lady of which family, so they will go directly to the door to ask for marriage regardless of it, and not only will the man be laughed at, but even the woman's reputation will be damaged.
So when Qian Yunhong found Mrs. Song and told her that the person she asked to marry was Xiao Jinxuan, the daughter of the Shuai Mansion, Mrs. Song only regarded the two Xiao Qian families, which had already been discussed.
But just now I saw the meaning of the old lady's words, it was not to marry her granddaughter at all, but to marry Xiao Jinyu, the pearl of the Shuai Mansion, to Qian Yunhong as his wife, which really confused the Song matchmaker.
Therefore, she is talented, so she can't help but look back, looking at Qian Yunhong, I am afraid that this new marquis will remember the names of the sisters by mistake, and then there will be an oolong, the faces of the Qian Xiao family are not good-looking, and she will not be able to protect the media.
But seeing that Qian Yunhong didn't mean to change his words, a person who can be a matchmaker will definitely not be able to eat this bowl of rice without a seven-trick exquisite heart, so she immediately understood that the person this Hou Ye wants to marry is probably indeed Miss Shuchu, but she doesn't seem to be angry with Shuaifu.
originally thought it was a good job with a lot of oil and water, but now Mrs. Song feels that she has received a hot potato, but she has already received Qian Yunhong's silver, so she has to continue to protect this matchmaker.
As soon as Mrs. Song finished saying that she had just finished speaking, she saw that the main hall, which was still laughing endlessly and the guests and hosts were happy, instantly became silent.
The one who was most stimulated was naturally Xiao Jinyu, and when she saw this, the teacup in her hand fell directly to the ground, and she stood up from the chair with a sluggish face, her eyes wide open, and she looked at Qian Yunhong in disbelief.
