(238) Flowers bloom and two lives are not destined (12)
I looked at her and half-narrowed my eyes said, "That's not a good habit. ”
Ni Shang approached me with a lamp, and the flickering light was surprisingly beautiful under the night sky.
"Good or bad, it doesn't matter to Childe, does it?"
I blinked, not agreeing with her words, nor rebutting hers.
"When will Childe go to the border again?" Nishang looked at me with a shallow smile on her face.
I raised an eyebrow.
"I'm just a grass farmer now, unofficial and unpaid, what are I going to do there?"
Nishang shook the lantern in her hand, looked down at the candle flame inside, and chuckled, "Tianlong will inevitably have a time when it runs aground, let alone a person?" How can Childe be so arrogant?"
"People are self-aware, haven't the girls in the neon clothes always believed in this sentence?" I asked with a smile.
Nishang's eyes lit up, and then he sighed helplessly, "The slave family is here with Gongzi, and it really can't be cheapened." ”
I smiled slightly, and then gave her a hand, "No matter what, I have to thank the girl for this light." ”
Seeing my polite appearance, Nishang couldn't help but laugh out loud, and she shoved the lantern into my hand before chuckling away.
"It's a girl with a delicate heart." I couldn't help but shake my head and smile.
Because I was dismissed, I became a person who had nothing to do, and in the first few days, I could barely stay in the house to recuperate, but it didn't take long for me to get up, and I wanted to run out of the house again and again, but Sun Hu persuaded me bitterly, and then there were six princesses Cen Yuhe who came to the house every day to "visit", and I could only force myself to suppress the restlessness in my heart, and I was bored and lying in the house.
On this day, I finally found an opportunity to sneak out and agreed with He Qiong to meet in Baixiang Building.
"I have a rare day to rest, but you want to ask me out to do these drudgeries." As soon as He Qiong pushed the door in, she shook her fan and sighed again and again.
I calmly drank the tea from the cup, and then looked up at him, "What, so reluctant?"
"How could I be reluctant to go to the soup for my friend?" He Qiong sat opposite me with a smile, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea, "Say, what do you want me to do when you come to me?"
The smile on my face deepened a little, "I'm at home now, I have nothing to do, no, the marriage of Cai Yu and Miss Ge is still hanging in my heart every day." ”
He Qiong's eyebrows moved: "What do you want to do?"
I stared at He Qiong and laughed, without saying a word.
He Qiong was stared at by me, and she had goosebumps all over her body.
"What do you want to calculate on me?" He Qiong looked at me suspiciously.
"Didn't you just say," I grinned at him, "that you were willing to go to the trouble for your friend?" ”
He Qiong immediately stepped back, "What I'm talking about is the scene, you won't take it seriously, right?"
"Of course!" I smiled and pushed the cup of tea he had poured in front of him, "I believe in you so much, you won't let me down, will you?"
The corners of his mouth twitched, and He Qiong wanted to say "no", but under my slightly threatening eyes, he could only acquiesce.
"You go to Ge's house now, and I'll accompany you."
"Smack!" The teacup He Qiong had just picked up immediately shattered into slag on the ground.
"How?" I frowned, "Is this difficult?"
He Qiong gritted her teeth: "What do you say?" ”
I seriously introspected to myself and decided that there should be no problem.
"Don't worry, I've prepared the dowry for you, just downstairs." I thought about it for a moment and added, "Even if you go to propose, I will bear all the consequences." ”
"......" He Qiong was completely speechless, "You don't even think about it, is this my life's event?" ”
"Do you have a girl you like?" I asked.
He Qiong shook his head with difficulty.
"Isn't that it, in case Miss Ge changes her mind and falls in love with you, aren't you just able to hug the beauty?"
That's right......
"Okay," He Qiong stood up, "I'll go to the soup for you once, and it won't be in vain to have fellowship with you in this life!" ”
Seeing that he was so bold and so righteous, my heart also became excited, and I slapped the table and stood up and said, "Good brother, let's go!" "Housekeeper
"Wait." He Qiong stopped me, "People have three urgency, I ......"
"Less nonsense, let's go!" I grabbed his arm and dragged him downstairs.
"Remember, when you get to the Ge family later, no matter how Master Ge embarrasses you, you have to do a beautiful job and make the family impeccable." I instructed.
"Don't worry, since I promised you, I will never let you down, what to do, I know in my heart." He Qiong swore to me.
I squinted at him for a moment, and finally I could only say, "I hope so." ”
I took He Qiong to the outside of Baixianglou, urged him to hurry up and get into the carriage, and then said to Sun Hu, who was giving the dowry gift, "Lord Ge has always been known for his rigor, and the gifts you prepare must not be exceeded." ”
Sun Hu nodded, "I understand, there will never be a problem." ”
He never made a mistake in doing things, and I was relieved to get into the carriage.
Zhuyi Lane, where Gefu is located, is a place where court officials live, and almost all the officials of the third and fourth grades of the Qin State live here, in other words, in Zhuyi Lane, almost everyone knows my carriage.
"Lord Shen Xiang, what are you...... Could it be that Lord Shen Xiang already has a crush, is this going to propose marriage?" Some officials saluted me in the carriage and laughed teasingly.
"That's natural, a young man with such a personable demeanor as Shen Xiang is when his heart is moving, but I don't know which adult's daughter can be favored by Shen Xiang!" As soon as these words came out, the officials next to them immediately followed suit, and everyone responded as if it was a happy event for the whole country.
I don't want this misunderstanding to spread out and become a talking point on the streets, so I can only get out of the car and explain it one by one, but those who are officials in the court, who are not fox spirits with sharp minds who hide their heads and tails, they just promise that they should say it in private, and there will be no less.
Crowded and crowded, and finally arrived at the gate of Gefu, I breathed a sigh of relief, pulled He Qiong out of the car, and handed over the sticker.
The housekeeper of Ge Mansion respectfully welcomed He Qiong and me in and took them to the Shuiyue Hall where the guests were meeting.
"Lord Ge." Ge Zhong came in through the door on the right, and He Qiong and I quickly put down the teacups and greeted him.
"Lord Shen Xiang, He Xian's nephew." Ge Chong was also happy when he saw the two, after all, such a talented and personable offspring, who wouldn't be happy when he saw it?
"Now that the emperor has been dismissed, Lord Ge still calls him in the name of the junior, the title of prime minister, I don't dare to be in the middle." I smiled and threw my hands away.
Although Ge Zhong is an upright person, after all, he has been in the officialdom for many years, and he still has the vision to see who can sit in what position.
"The ups and downs of officialdom are just ordinary things, Shen Xiang has always been the emperor's confidant and favorite minister, and it is not impossible for this to be used again." Master Ge smiled and invited me to sit down with He Qiong, "There is also He Xian's nephew, a young man who has a talented future and a bright future." ”
"Uncle praised it falsely, the little nephew is just a temporary luck, and I will have to ask my uncle for advice in the future." He Qiong got up and gave Ge Zhong a cup of tea.
Ge Zhong took the tea with a smile on his face, "Nephew He Xian is really getting more and more handsome, over the years, my younger siblings should also start to help you find girls, right?"
This is too intimate, but the relationship between the Ge family and the He family is not shallow, so it is not too much to say that it is a half-joke.
Coincidentally, this also followed He Qiong's and my thoughts.
"Uncle said with a smile, the little nephew is only a shallow learner, and he has no achievements, which girl can he climb." He Qiong didn't dare to follow Ge Chong's words to boast about herself.
Ge Zhong looked at He Qiong's modest and polite appearance, and there was an indescribable joy and pity in his heart.
If his own daughter can marry He Xian's nephew, coupled with the friendship between the two families, what a good thing, but it's a pity that my daughter's heart is tied to the little rabbit cub of the Cai family!
Alas, what a headache.
"If it weren't for the old man's daughter, her appearance was damaged, and she was raised in the boudoir since she was a child, and she didn't have much knowledge, the old man really wanted to be cheeky and mention this family matter to the virtuous nephew." The more Ge Chong looked at He Qiong, the more he liked it in his heart, the more he liked it in his heart, and the words he said were inevitably a little more polite, but as soon as the words came out, he regretted it a little.
After all, this is his sweetheart's daughter, it hurts in his heart, and now when he says this, isn't he embarrassing his daughter?
If He Xian's nephew thinks that he is looking for relatives for his daughter, then should he refuse or accept it? If he refused, his daughter's reputation would be damaged, and if he accepted it...... I'm afraid it's really hard for a strong man.
Ge Chong's face changed slightly, and he regretted it in his heart, and when He Qiong on the opposite side saw it, he immediately expected that the time had come, stood up, and knelt in front of Ge Chong.
"Uncle, the little nephew has a matter that has been hidden in his heart for many years, and he has never dared to say it in front of you, today I take this opportunity to say all the words in my heart."
Ge Chong's face was stunned, he already had an expectation in his heart, but he couldn't believe his feelings at all.
This, how is this possible......
"What does the virtuous nephew want to say, even if he says it, why do you have to make such a big gift?" Ge Zhong hurried to help He Qiong, but He Qiong refused to get up.
"Uncle, little nephew has always been ...... I've always liked my cousin Xinrong, and I came here today to propose to you first. ”
"Nephew, you ......"
"The little nephew knows that this time he came very abruptly, and the etiquette has not been thorough, but please rest assured that as long as the uncle is willing to agree to the little nephew, the little nephew will immediately invite his parents to come.
"This ......" To tell the truth, Ge Zhong couldn't help but be moved by such a family matter, he wanted to agree on the spot, but after all, his daughter already had someone in her heart, and no matter what, he didn't want to go against his daughter's wishes.
