When the green-clothed maid heard their conversation, she was even more embarrassed, lowered her head, and did not speak.

"That's right, starting a family, but you can't start a family first to have no worries about the future." Dou smiled meaningfully, and glanced at the woman in green by the door.

"What Mrs. said is, madam, my brother and I are not familiar with each other in Chang'an, and now that my brother is old, if he doesn't look for a girl, it will be even more difficult to find it in the future, Mu Xiang has a reluctant request." Liu Muxiang saw that Dou mentioned it first, and felt that there was no need to continue to go around, anyway, now Dou is interested.

Dou nodded and said, "Hehe, what's the matter, but it's okay to say it!" ”

"Then Mu Xiang is abrupt, Mu Xiang asked Mrs. to tell my eldest brother a girl, let my eldest brother start a family as soon as possible, I can rest assured." Liu Muxiang stood up and saluted Dou.

Usually, Changsun Chong often said that his mother was a very good person to get along with and would not be a man, but I met today, and it was really the case.

Dou Shi hurriedly pulled up the willow wood incense, glanced at the green-clothed maid, and said, "I thought something was wrong!" Since you said it, I'll give your eldest brother a look! I'm afraid you won't believe my vision when the time comes! ”

"Madame's where's the word. As long as it is a person who is favored by Mrs., it is not bad, and Mu Xiang can trust Mrs. Liu Muxiang hurriedly said, bringing a high hat to Dou.

"In Chang'an, your brother is alone, tomorrow Chong'er will accompany Mu Xiang back to the door, and everything will be prepared for you." Dou's heart was happy, and there was more smile on his face, this daughter-in-law is good, colored, and has a sweet mouth, no wonder his son likes it so much.

After chatting about the customs outside for a while, half an hour passed unconsciously, and Liu Muxiang taught Dou to practice the movements of the five poultry operas, and did not stop until he was sweating, ready to continue learning in the future.

The eldest grandson Chong returned to the courtyard with Liu Muxiang, and Liu Muxiang was considered to have integrated into the life of the eldest grandson's family. Think of Tai Chi. It looks much more elegant than the five poultry plays, and I heard that the effect is also good, but the eldest grandson Chong can't, so I will go back and get a few CDs in the future, let Liu Muxiang study and study, maybe he can become a generation of grandmasters!

The next day, the eldest grandson Chong returned to the door with Liu Muxiang, and the Dou family prepared a large cart to return to the door, which was regarded as saving face for Liu Muxiang, and even let the powerful big girl Mei Lin next to her follow.

The reason why Merlin came along. Not for anything else, just because this Merlin is the only one around the Dou family who has no marriage match, let her come with her, just to let her go and see Liu Mulan with her own eyes, okay. Dou Shi said again, if it doesn't work. Dou and the other sides looked for other people. It can be seen from this. Dou really put a few girls around him to appreciate, choose a husband, and be cautious!

Merlin's heart beat faster along the way, but fortunately, the other party didn't know, so he was slightly relieved. Today she came over. It's also dressed up, and the general temperament is very good.

Liu Mulan didn't know if Liu Muxiang could return to the door, it stands to reason that there is no such thing as a concubine, but he still took a day off. Wait at the door, look around from time to time.

When she saw Changsun Chong's carriage turning into the corner of the street, Liu Mulan's eyes were hot, it seemed that her sister was not wronged at Changsun's house, and Changsun Chong's mother was good to her sister, so she walked a few steps up to greet her.

The carriage finally stopped at the door, the coachman put a stool underneath, Merlin got out of the carriage first, and looked up to see a man with clear eyebrows, not like an ordinary soldier, but with the elegance of a literati.

It is indeed a little similar to Aunt Liu, Merlin looked at it a few times, then lowered his head and helped Liu Muxiang down.

The eldest grandson rushed off his horse and said, "Uncle! ”

"Eldest grandson!" Liu Mulan didn't dare to make a mistake, and said respectfully.

"It's all your own family, don't be so polite!" Liu Muxiang saw that the two of them were a little uncomfortable, and rushed into the door while pulling her brother and her eldest grandson.

There was only an old couple in the yard, the old man watched the door, the old woman cooked, and when she saw that the young lady was back, she hurriedly welcomed the door and asked the old woman to cook on the fire.

After Merlin saw Liu Mulan clearly, he had already secretly promised that when he came in, he was even happier when he saw that there were no maids in the house. In this way, as soon as you enter the door, you can be in charge, and the Liu Mulan people are good, plus Aunt Liu is the aunt favored by the eldest young master, and Liu Mulan's future is not bad.

Liu Muxiang secretly looked at Merlin, and saw Merlin's shy and timid appearance, with a satisfied smile in her eyes, it seems that Merlin, the girl, is more satisfied with her brother.

However, Mrs. didn't say which one, and Liu Muxiang couldn't reveal it to her brother, so she would talk about everything when she got back.

"Uncle, are you still adapting to the barracks?" The eldest grandson Chong asked, he still cares very much about Liu Muxiang's only eldest brother, and Liu Mulan's martial arts are very high, and he has a strategy, so he feels that he can be of great use in the future.

Liu Mulan smiled and said: "Hehe, adapt, there is a big bear by his side, he is enthusiastic, he also bought a small yard in the capital, not far from me." ”

"Then is he at home, hand it over and have dinner together." Eldest Sun Chong asked.

"At home, take a leave of absence with me!" Liu Mulan is very grateful to Big Bear, who introduced him inside and out and is a good friend worth befriending.

As he was saying that, the big bear came over, and he was still carrying two jars of good wine in his hand, laughed and walked in, and said, "Muxiang, congratulations on finding Ruyu Langjun." ”

"If you don't change your dead nature, you will know that you are making fun of me." Liu Muxiang said angrily, "You guys chat, I'll go see how Chen's mother's food is doing." ”

Merlin saw that Liu Muxiang was leaving, and it was not good to stay here, so he also followed.

"I don't know what the girl is called?" Although Liu Muxiang knew that she was the maid next to the Dou family, she didn't know the name.

"Aunt Liu, the slave maid is called Merlin!" Merlin said respectfully.

"Merlin, good name! Whatever you like to eat, I'll make it for you. Liu Muxiang was very satisfied when he saw that Merlin was in and out of moderation, elegant in conversation, and good upbringing.

Merlin shook his head and said, "Come on, slave and maid!" ”

"I used to cook at home, and I did a lot of work!" Liu Mu smiled and was not polite to Merlin.

Merlin listened and echoed: "On weekdays, the family cooks in the big kitchen and eats together, but occasionally makes supper for Madame, and also cooks a few kinds of food. "Merlin is showing that he is also a good cook.

"Hehe, then let's do it together, just Mother Chen, it is estimated that it will take a long time." Liu Mulan took Merlin's hand.

When I got to the kitchen, I saw Chen's mother in a hurry, and finally Liu Muxiang asked Chen's mother to light the fire, she cooked and cooked, Mei Li cut vegetables, and washed vegetables.

I made six dishes in half an hour, although it was not much, but the portion was large, and I left a little for Chen's mother and Uncle Chen, and they were all served to the main room.

Merlin wanted to go back to the kitchen and eat whatever he wanted, not daring to share a table with his master.

Liu Muxiang took Merlin's hand and said, "Miss Merlin, we are a small family, there are not so many rules, those who come are guests, sit down and eat together." ”

"I can't help it, how can a slave and maid eat with their master!" Merlin refused, but his strength was not as strong as that of Willow Wood, and he was pulled on the seat.

Liu Muxiang smiled and said: "It's all their own people, they drink, let's eat." "Willow wood fragrant to Merlin with vegetables.

Merlin saw that the young master still had Liu Mulan, and the big bear didn't speak, so he sat down to eat with his head bored, embarrassed to look up.

Full of wine and food, chatting for a while, taking advantage of the opportunity for Liu Mulan to go out, Liu Muxiang followed and said: "Big brother, about your marriage, I ask Mrs. to show you people, you can rest assured, promise to give you a good daughter-in-law, and support our family as soon as possible, if you can have a big grandson, your father and mother will be happy." ”

Liu Mulan was a little embarrassed and said, "Sister, my brother can't stand you, and I even need you to handle this matter." ”

"Brother, we are brothers and sisters, in this world, we are the closest people, I don't care who cares about you." Liu Muxiang said softly, "In the box I brought today, I added a thousand taels of silver to you, and some porcelain or something, everything that should be purchased must be purchased, don't worry about not having enough money." ”

"Got it, Mu Xiang, I still have more than a hundred taels of silver on me enough to buy a dowry, you can bring back the money." Liu Mulan doesn't want her sister's money.

"Big brother, one hundred taels is a lot in the countryside, but in Chang'an City, you can't buy a good dowry, so you can accept the money." Liu Muxiang persuaded.

Liu Mulan saw Liu Muxiang say this, so she had no choice but to do it.

In the afternoon, Changsun Chong took Liu Muxiang back to his house, went to Dou's to reply, and then returned to his courtyard.

Dou looked at Merlin with a face full of shame and asked, "Merlin, what about Aunt Liu's brother?" ”

Merlin lowered his head and whispered: "He is a very good person, he talks elegantly, not like a military general, but like a literati." ”

"Hehe, that's good. You see that the three of them have already settled down, and you are the only one left. You're not too small, nineteen today. Aunt Liu asked me to show her brother yesterday, and if you think it's good, I'll let you go. "Dou doesn't beat around the bush.

Merlin kept his head down, knelt on the ground and said, "But it's up to Madame to decide!" That means yes.

"That's good, I'll call Aunt Liu back in two days, and you can embroider the wedding dress with peace of mind." Dou pursed his lips and smiled, marrying off these people around him can be regarded as worthy of them serving her.

"Thank you, Mrs. Grace." Merlin was grateful, she was sold to the house when she was eight years old, and she didn't know where her parents were, and now Mrs. has found her a good husband, and she is still in Chang'an, and she can often visit Mrs., and she can be regarded as having a small family of her own.

"Hehe, you have been by my side for so many years, and now you are getting married one after another, and you are really a little reluctant." Dou sighed.

"Madame has the grace of Merlin to recreate, and Merlin is willing to serve Madame for the rest of her life." Merlin choked up and said that she was truly grateful to the Dou family.

Dou waved his hand and said: "If I really hurt you, I won't keep you by my side for a lifetime, and I really care for you by arranging someone to do a good job." Don't forget to talk to me when you're free. ”

Merlin was grateful for Dou's care, and in the future, as long as Mrs. spoke, she was willing to do anything for Mrs. (To be continued......)
