"I heard, what? Xian'er, do you really like Miss Cai? Planning to marry her? ”

Ma Guiren, she watched Xiaojing and them from the side, but she always paid attention to the situation of Liu Xian and Cai Yan. Not only did she vaguely hear Liu Xian's words to Cai Yan, but she also noticed some small actions of Liu Xian to Cai Yan.

Ma Guiren is happy to see Liu Xian's interest in these girls, and wishes that Liu Xian would cook raw rice with them earlier, if he can secretly tie the knot, it would be the best.

But she did propose to Kong Rong first, and now she suddenly proposed to Cai Yong, which made her feel a little embarrassed.

Knowing this, I didn't compare the situation of the Kong family and the Cai family at that time, and then thought that it was most suitable to marry the Kong family.

Now it seems that she feels that Cai Yan seems to be more suitable.

"Uncle, you don't have to be embarrassed about this. When the two adults come back, I'll talk to Master Cai first. As for you, just probe Lord Kong's tone, if he feels that he has no intention of marrying our Plains Palace, then explain it to him directly. Liu Xian stood beside Ma Guiren and said.

"Well, if it weren't for the aunt's urgency, and I don't know when you will come back, the aunt wouldn't be so anxious to propose to Kong Rong." Ma Guiren nodded.

Liu Xian said indifferently: "Uncle, in fact, I value Lord Cai's talent more, with Lord Cai's current situation, we show our favor to his Cai family, and it is possible for Lord Cai to contribute to our future affairs." But Master Kong Rong is different, he is now famous, the Confucian family has a great cause, and even more profound than our Plains Palace, it will be difficult for the Confucian family to work for us in a certain time. Therefore, with the Kong family, everything is still casual. At that time, if Kong Rong agrees to this family matter, you have to tell him clearly, just say, I also have a crush on Cai Yan, in this way, with the heart of the Kong family, he probably won't agree. ”

"Well, how can I say this? Xian'er, you deliberately want to push off the relationship with the Kong family. Could it be that you don't like Miss Kong at all? Ma Guiren patted his forehead and said.

"Uncle, you see, my nephews now have Xiaojing, Ning'er, and Wudie, and now if Lord Cai agrees, and Miss Cai Yan again, I can't see a beautiful woman and have to marry, right?" Liu Xian was a little speechless.

"What's this, we are the Liu family of the royal family, your father was dozens of women and hundreds of children during his lifetime, no matter what, you can't be less than your father. Okay, Uncle Niang thinks it's good for you to marry Miss Kong and Miss Cai together. I know how to tell Kong Rong. Well, I'll go first, you guys can play for a while, and have lunch together later. ”

Ma Guiren seems to take it for granted that Liu Xian takes it for granted that no matter how many women he has, he doesn't feel that there is any problem with marrying Miss Kong and Cai together.

With that, she slowly left the garden.

Liu Xian watched the three girls play in the pavilion in the garden, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he stopped them.

"Liu, Liu Xiangongzi, what's wrong? I still want to take revenge, Yan'er, that girl, actually dared to sneak attack and threw me two snowballs from behind. ”

"Gege, who made you so slow? People got into the plum blossom forest and went around again, and you got in. Accept it, I said that you are not someone's opponent. Cai Yan crossed his small waist and faced Kong Xuedao with a victorious attitude.

"Little girl, I'll make you look good in the evening. See that I don't tickle you. Kong Xue and Cai Yan talked together, and they seemed to be a little unsatisfied about playing with the snow this time.

Liu Xian smiled and said to her, "Miss Kong, how are you feeling now?" Doesn't it feel better? Still feeling cold? ”

"Huh? I don't really feel the chill anymore, it's weird, I still feel a little hot. ”

"So, life lies in sports, and if you play with Xiaojing and Cai Yan, this is equivalent to doing sports. Okay, now go back upstairs to wipe your sweat, and let's go to lunch together later, so you don't have to let someone bring it to the room. ”

"Well, when you talk about lunch, people feel a little hungry. Yan'er, let's go upstairs. Kong Xue beckoned to Cai Yan.

She didn't know what Liu Xian was talking to Cai Yan about, and she was still innocent.

The two girls, one older and one younger, returned to the attic.

Xiaojing came to Liu Xian's side.

Liu Xian slapped off the snowflakes on her body for her, and also took out a silk scarf from her arms to wipe the sweat stains on her forehead and neck.

"Have fun?" Liu Xian said with pity for her.

Xiaojing has been a little depressed since Liu Xian's mother left, and she rarely sees her really cheerful laughter, nor does she play around.

She is only a sixteen-year-old girl, she seems too sensible and quiet, Liu Xian hopes that she can live happily.

"Well, happy. Brother Xian, when are we going back to Liulin Village? I'm thinking about Liu Xue a little. Xiaojing got into Liu Xian's arms, leaned on Liu Xian's chest and said, "And Sister Zhang Ning, she doesn't know if she has returned to Liulin Village." ”

"It's not in a hurry to go back to Liulin Village, I'll accompany Ma Guiren here first, and by the way, I'll deal with some things first. Liulin Village has the old village chief and Brother Yu Jin here, and there will be no problem. As for Ning'er, didn't she already ask someone to send her a letter? When the time comes, when we go back, we may be able to drop by and pick her up. ”

Liu Xian hugged her, thought for a while, and said: "The affairs of Liulin Village, everything that should be arranged has been arranged, and now is the time to prepare the materials for building the castle. ”

"Are you going to go back to Liulin Mansion in Liulin Village after becoming a parent?" Xiaojing said again, there is a faint taste in this tone.

"It doesn't matter if you don't get married, but it is estimated that you will get married first. In addition, the ceremonial banquet to recognize the noble horse as a righteous mother has not yet been held, and these must be done well before leaving. What's more, this plain palace is also our home, what's wrong? Do you feel unaccustomed to staying in the Plains Palace? ”

"No, no, no...... It's just that Xiaojing thinks that we all grew up in Liulin Village, and thinks that it is our real home, and it is ...... Before, it was only Xiaojing and her brother......"

"Hehe......" Liu Xian smiled, knowing that this girl was a little apprehensive in her heart, in the past in Liulin Village, Liu Mansion, it was true that she was the only one who was closest to her, but now that she is here, there are many women.

Liu Xian comforted her and said, "Xiaojing, you can rest assured, no matter where you are, my brother likes you." ”

"Well, my brother is the best for Xiaojing."

……

Xiaojing is indeed extremely attached to Liu Xian.

Liu Xian is her young master, her elder brother, and her favorite person.

Not long after, Sister Cai Yan and Kong Xue came out, and then went to the dining room for lunch together.

Kong Xue's condition has indeed improved a lot, she is not afraid of the cold, and she doesn't need to be helped by others when she walks.

Let's just say that her situation is more of her psychological problem.

She always felt sick, afraid of the cold, and always felt powerless.

But in fact, as long as you find a way to make her forget whether she is sick or not, then she will be fine.

At lunchtime, according to Liu Xian's earlier instructions, Kong Xue just drank some ginseng chicken soup and some porridge. But her appetite seems to be very good, and she still wants to eat after eating.

When Ma Guiren left earlier, he went to find Yi Ji, and now Yi Ji is naturally together.

This time, Liu Xian'an was quiet, holding a very relaxed attitude, and accompanied Ma nobles and the women to dine.

After the meal, they talked about what they were interested in.

Ma Guiren and the Cai Yan sisters, as well as Kong Xue and Yi Ji, actually have some common interests. That is, they all like to play the piano.

Like Ma Guiren, he is usually very idle, so he likes the piano.

As for Miss Cai and Miss Kong, they themselves are from big families, and they must know how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Not only understand, but also extremely proficient. Especially the Cai family sisters, they seem to have everyone's demeanor, and their piano skills are better than Ma Guiren, Kong Xue, and Yi Ji.

What amazed Liu Xian was Cai Yan, she was only in her teens, and her piano skills were no worse than her sister Cai Yan, no wonder, she could create a talented girl from Hu Yan in the future.

This is really rare, they have common interests and hobbies together, and the relationship is suddenly closer.

Liu Xian listened to them play and sing, and felt that it was really a kind of enjoyment, a rare quiet and comfortable life.

Ma Guiren's piano skills are not very good, slightly inferior to Yi Jidu, but to Liu Xian's surprise, she sings extremely well, and her voice seems to be magnetic, full of femininity.

If it is placed in the postmodern era, Ma Guiren must be a singer-level existence.

Liu Xian accompanied them until the afternoon, and at this time, Kong Rong and Cai Yong really came back.

After the subordinates came to report, Liu Xian hurriedly went with Ma Guiren to meet them.

Welcomed them to the welcoming hall of the Plains Palace.

First, the women stepped forward to greet them, and then Ma Guicai talked to them and asked Liu Xian to come forward to meet them.

Ma Guiren sat in the main seat of the living room and said to Kong and Cai, who were sitting on both sides: "Mr. Cai, Mr. Kong, everything will go smoothly this time to find friends and visit friends?" Well, let's Xian'er, let's meet the two adults first. ”

Liu Xian naturally didn't dare to slack off at this time, and stepped forward to salute Kong and Cai respectively: "After entering the last school, Liu Xian has seen Lord Cai and Master Kong. ”

"Let the two gentlemen laugh, he is Liu Xian, the righteous son of this nobleman." Ma Guiren said politely to Cai and Kong at this time.

Cai Yong and Kong Rong were both looking at Liu Xian at this time, and they both nodded in unison and said, "Okay, the virtuous nephew doesn't need to be polite." ”

Cai Yong followed up and praised: "The person who can make Ma Guiren look at it is really a talent, not bad." When the old man arrived in Jizhou, he also heard some things about you, and he was so young that he could do this and do well. The afterlife is terrifying. ”

"It's all trivial, not enough to worry about." Liu Xian knew in his heart what it was, a modest way.

Liu Xian's name has spread in Jizhou. Therefore, Cai Yong said that he had heard some things about himself, which is not surprising at all.

Cai Yong is in his 50s, but because he has been wandering for many years, he looks relatively old, and his hair and beard are a little gray. The only good thing is that his spirit is good, his eyes are blazing, and he is full of wisdom.

Kong Rong, he is only in his thirties, very young. However, he also had a beard and wore a scribe's uniform, which looked extremely elegant.

And Liu Xian can also see that Kong Rong seems to be very particular, and he will pay attention to some details with every gesture. I feel like a very cultivated person.

He was also looking at Liu Xian, after all, Ma Guiren had proposed marriage to him, if he nodded in agreement, then this Liu Xian would be his son-in-law.

He looked at it and nodded secretly, his impression of Liu Xian was indeed good. However, he didn't say much, just bowed his head to Liu Xian. At this time, he wanted to praise Liu Xian, but it was not suitable.

"Xian'er, Lord Cai and Master Kong are both today's celebrities, Confucians, and rich scholars, while the two adults are guests at our house, you can ask them more for teaching, if you can, this noble person also wants to invite the two adults to be your teachers." Ma Guiren seemed to train Liu Xian at this time, and then said to the two: "Two adults, you can also help take a look, if you think Xian'er is a talent that can be created, I hope you can give more advice." ”

"Ha, it's easy to say, anyway, if you don't leave these days, you will be bothering the nobles in the Plains Palace. If you have any questions, you can ask them, and everyone should study them together. Cai Yong laughed and said.

Ma Guiren's original intention, even if he couldn't marry them, hoped that Liu Xian could worship them as a teacher. This is not to say that he wants Liu Xian to learn anything, but that he hopes that Liu Xian will worship them as teachers, and there will be a friendship between master and apprentice in the future. And when Liu Xian went out to socialize, he was easier to talk to.

Just like Liu Bei, he once worshiped under Lu Zhimen, and when he said it outside, others naturally had some respect for Liu Bei. It turns out that he is a student of Lu Zhi.

If Liu Xian can worship Cai Yong and Kong Rong as teachers, then when others hear it, it turns out that Liu Xian is actually Cai Yong's student, which invisibly enhances Liu Xian's status, and ordinary people dare not look down on Liu Xian.

"Xian'er, serve tea to the two adults." Ma Guiren explained to Liu Xian again, and asked again: "Two adults, how about this visit to friends?"

"Well, needless to say. When we arrived at the friend's house, we found it in ruins. I finally found some people nearby to ask, and then I learned that our friend's family had suffered from the scourge of yellow turban thieves. Life and death are unknown. We didn't give up, we searched for a few more days, but we couldn't find it, and then we came back. Cai Yong said with some annoyance.

Jizhou was the center of the whirlpool of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and it is not surprising that Cai Yong and Kong Rong's friends were in trouble.

"Well, that's a shame. I don't know what your friend's name is? Do you need my Plains Mansion to send someone to find out? "Ma Gui is humane.

"Forget it, don't bother the nobles. As the saying goes, wealth is up to fate, and life and death are up to heaven. It is not easy for us to live in such a world. Cai Yong waved his hand.

He felt it, but he didn't want Ma Guiren to worry about his private affairs, mainly because he didn't want to owe too much favors to others.
