Chapter 12 Pity the hearts of parents in the world

The person in charge of dotting the group immediately booked a private room with the innkeeper, and almost all the remaining rooms in the inn were booked.

The shopkeeper was already quite polite when he saw a group of officials, and when he saw a group of women coming in one after another, he became more and more enthusiastic.

After beckoning Xiao Er to take the group to the private room, the shopkeeper personally brought some melon seeds or something to the women at those tables for practical use, and his face was full of enthusiasm and flattery.

Xia Ziyan sat with the two officials and Ouyang Linxuan, and the one who came at this table with snacks and tea was Xiao Er.

Seeing the women at the three or four tables next door, the forty or fifty-year-old shopkeepers went to chat with the women enthusiastically one by one, Xia Ziyan looked at that scene and was a little surprised, is this because women are too rare and few women go out, or what?

The enthusiasm of the shopkeeper is more attentive than the treatment of the two officials and the two doctors in the capital at this table.

"Miss Xia, it's been hard along the way, do you feel uncomfortable?" One of the officials, about forty years old, asked with a smile.

"It's okay, but I feel sore all over my body after sitting for a long time." Xia Ziyan smiled slightly.

"In this way, if you don't wait later, I'll ask someone to help you press and loosen your body." Another official in his fifties said.

"No need." Is this asking Meng Niang to help? Presumably, Meng Niang was also very tired after sitting in the car all day.

In fact, no matter who followed this trip, they must have been tired, especially those infantry who followed all the way.

It's been a long journey.

There's no way she's going to trouble people anymore, "No need, take a good rest tonight, and tomorrow will definitely be fine." ”

"Hehehe... Then Miss Xia will rest early tonight. The fifty-year-old official smiled, looked at Xia Ziyan, and said tentatively, "Miss Xia is said to be 15 this year?" ”

"Hmm." Xia Ziyan nodded.

"Miss Xia has a marriage match??" The older official whispered again.

Compared to the other tables, their table is obviously too quiet.

Those tables of women are as noisy as a vegetable market.

Therefore, no one heard the content of the small talk of a few people here, and when they came again, the voice was not very loud.

"Nope." Xia Ziyan shook her head.

"Huh? This, Miss Xia, don't joke with us. The two officials and the two doctors at the table smiled, obviously not believing.

Ouyang Linxuan didn't say anything during the whole process, just sat there quietly and listened, but, when he heard her say that she was not engaged, he couldn't help but have joy in his heart.

"No kidding." Xia Ziyan was stunned and wondered, it's strange that there is no marriage match?

Although there are many women here who are very young, they have a marriage match, a doll kiss or something, and a marriage between families.

However, there are also girls who really got married at the age of 15 and have never been married before.

So, it's not a particularly strange situation for her.

"Is what Miss Xia said true?" Several people looked at Xia Ziyan in surprise.

Xia Ziyan nodded very innocently and seriously.

"How is it possible, Miss Xia, you have a lot of advantages." A doctor asked, but stopped talking at the back, looking at Xia Ziyan with puzzled eyes.

"No, I'm just like a normal person." Xia Ziyan didn't know much about his advantages in his mouth, after all, she was new here, and she really didn't know what special differences she had from others, but she was very modest.

"Miss Xia, since childhood... Are your parents not in a hurry to help you get engaged, or find a good family early? At this time, the doctor who treated Xia Ziyan at that time asked curiously.

"No, my parents didn't blindly arrange it for me before, my marriage must be looking for what I like, and I may not like what they arranged, so they said I liked it, as long as the people I chose had good character, were good to me, self-motivated, and the most important thing was that we liked each other, which was enough." Xia Ziyan shook her head and said slowly, her hands were not idle, she took a melon seed and bit it and ate it.

The people at the table were shocked one by one.

What kind of parents this is.

In this way, it is good not to be for external interests, but to let your child live for her heart, and find a life that the person she likes is happy.

Such parents are special and strange.

They are also parents, but they are also thinking about their children, but they can't be so pure.

Although it is for their own children, it is better to find the right person, especially to assist the interests of the two families to a higher level, and again, if it is for their own daughter, they will think more, not only to be good to her, but also to be powerful!

But that's it, compared to her parents, they feel so shocked.

Ouyang Linxuan was naturally shocked in his heart, but he became more and more excited, too, only such parents and family members can cultivate such a special daughter, and only then can they be more modest and polite and orderly in their behavior and personality so different from those women.

After waiting for a while, the hearts of the people at the table calmed down, but some of the tentative thoughts that were already there were ignited even more at this time.

But if any of their sons have not yet been married or married, they want their sons to marry her.

After secretly observing for more than ten days, as well as a few days of occasional conversations, it is clear that this Xia girl is no worse than the girls of the big families in the capital, not to mention the appearance and figure. The man who marries her is no worse than marrying another woman, and he is happier.

Nowadays, in addition to wanting power, what men want more is not a woman who likes, has a good character, and does not care to set up a family together?

As parents, why don't they think about their son, just because this Xia girl is quite good in all aspects, they feel more and more that they have to help their son seize the opportunity, even if it is to create two more opportunities for their own children, it is also an opportunity to know each other.

That is, several officials and doctors at the table chatted with Xia Ziyan, chatting and chatting about their sons, and how good their children are, how smart they are, and what their character is.

Ouyang Linxuan lowered his eyes, how could he not know what they were aiming for.

He also wanted her to pay more attention... But how could he tell her directly? Moreover, his identity... It's already different.

She's afraid she doesn't think much about herself.

Xia Ziyan didn't think much about it at first, but the topic talked about their sons for a long time, and she still understood it.

So, it's okay if you don't understand, but when you understand, you're embarrassed.

However, it's hard to say anything, just smile and nod occasionally.

She suddenly had an epiphany now, just the shopkeeper was so enthusiastic, I'm afraid she was also thinking about her son.

Hey... Pity the hearts of parents all over the world.

Especially in this world where there are more men and fewer women, finding a woman to start a family is almost as important as life.

After chatting for a while, everyone went upstairs to find their own room.

Xia Ziyan dressed up in men's clothes, and the officials took good care of her, so she was arranged to be on the same floor as the officials, the doctor and Ouyang Linxuan, and her room was right next to Ouyang Linxuan.

The rest of the women were on the second floor.

Everyone put away the baggage and waited, and then came down for dinner, the meal was relatively ordinary, causing a group of women to be dissatisfied, but there was no way to do it in this realm.

It's not a busy street.

After a meal, Xiao Er fetched water, Xia Ziyan rinsed it, and went to bed, the road was bumpy, and he was really tired.

It didn't take long for me to fall asleep.

Even outside, Ouyang Linxuan didn't hear him knock on the door.

Ouyang Linxuan returned to his room, and at this time, Xiao Dezi was very gossipy and asked, "Young Master, didn't Miss Xia talk to you?" ”

"It seems that she is too tired along the way." Ouyang Linxuan shook his head and said distressedly.

Xiao Dezi understood when he heard it, and nodded his head, "Yes, the woman's body is already weak, and she has been running around all day, not to mention the woman, I feel a sore back all day sitting in the carriage." ”

Ouyang Linxuan was even more distressed, but there was always a difference between men and women, and it was not easy for him to help her.

"Young master, you can chase Miss Xia quickly, in the future, won't you accompany her if she is uncomfortable?" Xiao Dezi smiled and teased.

"Nonsense." Ouyang Linxuan degraded him, but he thought that if his identity could be justified by her side, like her today, he would... Help her rub her body.

I couldn't help but feel a little warm.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, the group began to hurry again.

That's it, a month is a non-stop rush.

On this day, everyone was stationed in a wild place, where there was an inn convenient for foot merchants.

And the crowd arrived here to prepare to stay here for one more day of rest.

The mountain road in front of it passed, and the mountains were endless, and robbers often came and went.

This incident has alarmed the imperial court many times, but the officers and soldiers were sent to encircle and suppress it, but they were always unable to break into the robbers and eliminate the robbers.

Because, the mountains in front are endless, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the terrain is quite unfavorable to outsiders.

Every time the foot merchant and those who pass by, they will always rest and reorganize before they dare to go over, trying to deal with any emergencies in their plump state.

The group of people each saluted and had dinner, but several officials and doctors mysteriously came out of a room for a long time, and then called Ouyang Linxuan in.

A group of women were still noisy in the lobby, either talking and laughing or fighting with each other.

This month's journey has been like this.

Xia Ziyan is also more familiar with the temperament of these women.

For a while, a group of women always surrounded her and Ouyang Linxuan, often listening to their words and confessions in a big way, and they were used to it.

Occasionally, I would talk to them.

Women gossip a lot, and these days, I can hear a lot of interesting gossip.

At this time, the night is darker, and after everyone has rinsed, they are ready to rest.

At first, I was not used to riding in the carriage, but in the past few days, I have begun to get used to it, but my body is still sour.

However, every time she dances or does yoga in her room before going to bed, it makes it easier for her to fall asleep and reduce her tiredness.

After a lap of yoga, Xia Ziyan lay on the bed, ready to sleep.

During this period of hurrying, her time in the carriage was either reading a book or secretly cultivating with her eyes closed.
