Chapter 129: Preparing to Propose
Someone outside the box responded: "When did you Chen Gongzi believe these statements!" ”
Chen Lang opened the door of the box and said, "Shopkeeper Ding is here, please come in!" ”
Ding Qian walked in and smiled at Liu Mei and said, "Uncle Mei is also there!" ”
Chen Lang said to Liu Mei: "Uncle Mei, let me introduce you two." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Liu Mei said in surprise: "Isn't this the brother of Miss Yue'er, we have known each other for a long time, so there is no need to introduce it." ”
Chen Lang smiled and said: "Uncle Mei, please forgive me, he is pretending to be Yue'er's brother." ”
Liu Mei stood up puzzled and said, "Why! You won't join forces with Yue'er to deceive me, will you! ”
Chen Lang said: "Uncle Mei, do you think we are like that!" We did this so that Yue'er could jump out of the fire pit as soon as possible, and secondly, we were afraid that I would come forward directly, if you refused, then I would have no face! As he spoke, he told the story of the incident.
After listening to Chen Lang's story, Liu Mei nodded and did not make a sound.
Ding Qian said: "Then, Uncle Mei won't blame us!" ”
Liu Mei shook her head and said, "I blame you, you are all anxious for justice and righteousness for the sake of Yue'er." ”
Chen Lang said: "Since Uncle Mei is not to blame, let's get to know each other again, Uncle Mei, this Yue'er's fake brother, named Ding Qian, is the shopkeeper of the Zhongxin Building Materials Shop on Qingshui Street." ”
Liu Mei took Ding Qian's hand and said, "It's rare for Ding to be righteous, please sit down, let's talk while drinking." Then he shouted to the man, "Men have picked up good wine and good food." ”
Soon the wine and food were placed on the table, and Liu Mei poured wine into the cup and said: "It's really rare to be able to get together with two little friends here today, let's drink a glass of thin wine first." ”
The three of them toasted together.
Ding Qian asked, "Uncle Mei, why did you meet Chen Lang today!" ”
Liu Mei smiled and said, "What kind of coincidence is this, but I went to Chen's shopkeeper's house to ask him when he would take me to Yue'er's father and brother to propose marriage." Shopkeeper Ding, you won't laugh at me Liu Mei at such an age, it's too unproductive! ”
Ding Qian said: "What about that! Every man in the prime of life can leave a woman, not to mention that Uncle Mei thinks that Miss Yue'er is like a friend at first sight! ”
Liu Mei said: "What you say is very true, what you say is very true!" ”
Chen Lang said: "Shopkeeper Ding, Uncle Mei has already prepared all the money for the bride price, if you have time tomorrow, we will accompany Uncle Mei to Yue'er's house to propose marriage." ”
Ding Qian said: "Isn't it just to propose marriage, can you go to so many people!" ”
Chen Lang said: "What do you know, there are many powerful people, I just want that Yue'er's father and brother to see Uncle Mei's style." ”
Ding Qian said: "This is easy to do, tomorrow let Xie Jinwu go to his Lord Wang, go to the Vermilion Bird Gate Forbidden Army to borrow a few tall horses, and let's ride a ride to show off our might." ”
Chen Lang said: "Hurry up, what kind of person is Uncle Mei, if you want to ride a horse, those forbidden soldiers have to be sent to the door of the house, and it takes so much time." ”
Ding Qian said: "That's not good, there are some things that Uncle Mei is not easy to talk about, so we should think of it for Uncle Mei." ”
Liu Mei said happily: "It's still the shopkeeper Ding who thinks thoughtfully, if you want to talk about horsebacking, I can go and tell the emperor myself, but some trivial things, plus I'm thin-skinned, it's really hard to speak!" ”
Ding Qian said proudly to Chen Lang: "What do you think, even Uncle Mei thinks this matter is done authentically." ”
Chen Lang slapped the table and said: "Okay, since Uncle Mei is happy, then let's let Uncle Mei open his mouth and smile, this matter is decided, let Xie Jinwu go and get three horses tomorrow, a big red horse with a big red flower, please Uncle Mei ride, two big white horses, our brother will ride for Uncle Mei as an entourage." ”
Ding Qian said: "Uncle Mei, you see, it's like going to give him Chen Lang tomorrow to propose marriage, and even the color of this horse has to be selected." ”
Chen Lang said: "That's a must. A good man rides a good horse, just a handsome and dashing person like Uncle Mei, riding on the big red horse, followed by two handsome little guys riding white horses, the big girls and little daughters-in-law in Bianliang City, Tokyo all day long, will not stay at home, they will definitely rush out of the house to have a sneak peek. Didn't there be a fruit throwing car in the Jin Dynasty, I think we are no worse than that. ”
Ding Qian smiled: "You'd better be careful that a stone suddenly flies over there tomorrow and puts a big green bag on your head." ”
Chen Lang patted his chest and said: "I'm not afraid of pain if I stick a knife in my friend's ribs, in order for Uncle Mei to marry back the Yue'er girl who was familiar at first sight, what is it for me Chen Lang to have two stones on his head!" Saying that, he picked up his wine glass and said, "Come, Uncle Mei, I will give you a glass first, I hope you will be old and strong, and your majesty will not be diminished." ”
Liu Mei picked up the cup and said happily: "You kid can't be serious when he talks about it, and he deserves to be the head of the four princes in the capital." ”
Ding Qian said: "Uncle Mei, don't talk, don't laugh, don't be lively, people, if you don't use it often, find some fun for yourself." Otherwise, wouldn't you live a lifeless life and lose your vitality. ”
Uncle Mei said with emotion: "Yes, with you, I seem to have returned to my youth all of a sudden." Thinking about that time, although life was a little harder, it was very happy, alas, the old time is gone. People should really think about how to cherish life! ”
As soon as Chen Lang heard it, he knew that this was really salivating water that aroused the old ice chop, Liu Mei must have missed Liu E again, so he smiled and gave him a relief pill and said: "Uncle Mei, there are many precious things in the past years, but since it has passed, let him pass, life is forward-looking, and looking back can only increase sadness in vain, and empty the tears of sadness." ”
Ding Qian also raised his glass and said: "Uncle Mei, tomorrow is your big day, what do you want to do in the past?" Drink! ”
The three of them raised their glasses and drank together.
Putting down the wine glass, Liu Mei said a little drunk: "Two little friends, it's rare, it's rare that you are so concerned about the affairs of me and Yue'er, and I have to ask you to worry a lot about the marriage proposal tomorrow." Everything is please. ”
Chen Lang said: "Uncle Mei, don't worry, tomorrow's things are all wrapped up in the two of us, just Yue'er's father and brother, those poor ghosts, when they saw so much silver, they were so scared that they peed their pants, and they dared to say a word." ”
Ding Qian said: "Okay, Uncle Mei, I see that this wine is almost drunk, you also go home to rest and rest, tomorrow morning, Chen Lang and I will go to Uncle Guo's Mansion to pick you up, and we will propose you to your relatives." ”
Liu Mei said with a big tongue: "Okay, then I will wait for the two of you at home tomorrow morning." Then he shook his head and said, "Don't forget to bring the horse." ”
Chen Lang smiled at Ding Qian and said, "You see that he is pretending to be drunk, and he hasn't forgotten the three tall horses!" ”
The next morning, Liu Mei got up early, had breakfast, washed her face carefully, and combed her thick black hair carefully in the mirror, then put on a purple scarf, wore a brand new purple robe, and stepped on thin-soled black cloud boots, and then walked into the courtyard, looked at the two boxes with big red silk flowers, each containing five hundred taels of silver, and the two strips were a thousand taels of silver, and then turned around and asked the servant: "Have the porters and drums been hired?" ”
The servant hurriedly nodded and said, "Uncle Guoguo, the small things you confessed dare to be lazy, and they were hired yesterday, and they will arrive on time in a while." ”
Liu Mei smiled and nodded, "Boy, look at how the master is dressed!" ”
The servant deliberately retreated a few steps back, and then carefully looked at it and praised it: "Uncle Guo, your dress is really that crape myrtle star descending to earth, like that jade tree in the wind, it is really Pan An who vomited blood when he saw it, and Song Yu hit the wall when he saw it." ”
Liu Mei said: "How do you say this! ”
The servant said: "Uncle Guo, although this Pan An Song Yu is said to be two beautiful men, but compared to you, they are also self-ashamed, you say that they don't vomit blood, don't hit the wall, what else." ”
Liu Mei is indeed very handsome, otherwise she would not have obtained Liu E's beautiful wife, and as a result, Liu E also let Emperor Zhenzong occupy it.
It's not that man who dares to name a beautiful word.
Liu Mei patted the servant's shoulder and said happily: "Okay, you kid is really good at sycophancy." As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and said, "Take out and buy wine for yourself!" ”
The servant took the silver and said, "Thank you, Uncle Guo." ”
At this moment, four porters and five or six drummers walked in and stepped forward together and said, "Congratulations to Uncle Guo!" ”
Liu Mei nodded and said, "Tongxi, Tongxi!" Then he waved his hand to the servant and said, "Reward, one tael of silver per person." ”
The porters and drummers happily took the money and thanked them again.
Liu Mei said: "Thank you, I can tell you, when I get to the front door of my future father-in-law's house, you drummers can sell me more strength, and after the incident, Uncle Guo and I will still have a reward." ”
After speaking, he walked out of the gate and stood on the steps and said to himself: "Chen Lang, why haven't these two boys come yet, don't miss the auspicious time." Before the words fell, I heard a crisp sound of horses' hooves coming from the street in the east, and looked at the sound, only to see Ding Qian, Chen Lang each riding a snow-white horse and running over, behind the two white horses, there was a golden saddle and golden horse, the body was like a red flame, and the fire dragon horse with a big red flower on the top of his head was very excited, and seemed to know that he was carrying his uncle to go on a blind date.
Ding Qian, Chen Lang rode to the door, turned over and dismounted, Chen Lang looked at Liu Mei and said: "Uncle Mei, your dress is still unusually chic and handsome, you are really as famous as your name." ”
Ding Qian also gave a thumbs up and said: "Uncle Mei, even a handsome guy like Chen Lang is ashamed of himself." ”
Chen Lang raised his foot and kicked Ding Qian, and said, "Go, do you have such an analogy!" Uncle Mei and I should be said to have our own merits. Speaking of this, he nodded and said, "Tut, but Uncle Mei is indeed beautiful, and he is a perfect match for Miss Yue'er!" A couple made in heaven. ”
Liu Mei turned around and shouted into the courtyard: "Everyone hurry up and carry the box, play the drums and go!" ”
Chen Lang took the fire dragon horse and came to Liu Mei's front and bowed, "Uncle Mei! Please saddle up and get on the horse, let's propose! ”
