After walking in the snow for a few hours, the appearance of a small cabin made them cheer.

Chen Sheng stepped into the house first, took out the fire fold and found a candle to light it. By the faint light of the candle, the situation in the room is clear at a glance:

It was a wooden house the size of an ordinary room, with a wooden bed covered with a hide of animals. A small table under the window next to the bed is all the furnishings in this room.

In the other corner of the room, there were several pots and bowls, and a jar for cooking porridge. It looks like there are people living here.

Su Han put Xichun down, looked at the brazier in the room and turned to leave: "I'll go find some firewood." ”

Su Han's light work is good, this kind of thing should be done.

Chen Sheng also walked out with his sword: "I'll go hunt some game." ”

Pomegranate helped Xichun to the bed: "You bear with it first, it will be warmer if you make a fire for a while." ”

Xichun nodded, feeling guilty for not being able to help and becoming a drag on everyone.

Pomegranate took the jar and went outside the door, wiped the inside and out of the jar with snow, and then returned to the house with another jar of snow.

At this time, Su Han was already holding a bundle of branches and lighting it in the brazier. Pomegranate put the jar aside, picked up Xichun from the bed, came to the fire, and sat on the ground.

Pomegranate took off her shoes for Xichun, held one of her feet in her hand and rubbed it vigorously.

"If you feel it, let me know."

Xichun nodded, holding his other foot and rubbing it vigorously. The fire burned more and more, and the two feet of Xichun slowly felt it.

At this time, Chen Sheng's voice came from outside the door: "Su Han." ”

Su Han heard Chen Sheng's voice with pleasure and knew that he had gained something. ran out to take a look, and sure enough, Chen Sheng was carrying a wild boar and happily threw it at the door.

"I'll leave it to you."

Su Han took out the dagger from his body and said with a smile: "Let me come!" ”

……

When the day dawned, the aroma of barbecued meat wafted from the cabin.

Chen Sheng, who went out to check the terrain, came back with a cold air.

"I walked a long way in one direction, but it was still surrounded by dense forests. Shizi, it's all my fault. ”

Chen Sheng patted off the snowflakes on his body and sat by the fire, feeling guilty.

Wei Huai'an took out the dagger, cut off a piece of meat and handed it to him: "It's okay, rest in place today." Wait for the snow to stop and clear your direction before walking. ”

The bed was given to two women. Although there is only one animal skin on the bed. Wei Huai'an sat by the brazier and took a nap against his baggage, while Chen Sheng and Su Han took turns to guard.

As a result, a day passed, and the heavy snow did not stop.

Before dark, Chen Sheng and Pomegranate carried back a wild deer and two hares together. The hut suddenly became lively again......

Three days later, the sky finally cleared. Only then did everyone realize that they had already deviated from the direction and entered the hinterland of the mountains.

So, it took them another day to finally get out of the forest.

In the distance, they saw a horse rushing out of the village, rolling up a cloud of snow and mist, and then disappearing into the distance in a blink of an eye.

"What a good horse." Chen Sheng praised.

Wei Huai'an stared at the horse and the people on the horse, with mixed feelings. Although it was far away, he recognized the owner of the horse.

For the arrival of Wei Huai'an and his entourage, Su Haoran's father and daughter were very surprised.

"How did you get out?" Su Muling hugged the two girls who pounced on her and asked in surprise.

"Miss, it's not easy for us to come out this time, the city gate won't let us go, we came over the mountain......"

Pomegranate quickly recounted what had happened.

Su Muling looked at Wei Huai'an and thanked with a smile: "Thanks to you." ”

Wei Huai'an saw Su Muling again, and the love in his eyes couldn't be hidden:

"Thank you, I knew you were in Zhuangzi, so I came with a team of courtship." Why bother to go to the city again, and waste so much time in vain. Search the e-book

Wei Huai'an's implication was that the mighty Houfu had already agreed to this family affair.

Su Haoran didn't show much pleasure when he heard this. Instead, he drove Su Muling into the house with a solemn face:

"Ling'er, you're just getting better, let's go back to your room and rest." Su Muling knew that Su Haoran had something to say to Wei Huai'an, so he took Xichun's hand and got up to say goodbye, and took the two girls back to the house to talk.

Wait for Su Muling to leave. Su Haoran instructed Wuying again: "Please go and talk to Yu Ping'an, the prince is here, dinner must be carefully prepared, and you must not be lazy." ”

Shadowless agreed and went out.

Wei Huai'an saw that Su Haoran's face was solemn, and he also put away his usual casual appearance, and glanced at Chen Sheng and Su Han beside him. The two understood and followed.

Only Su Haoran and Wei Huaian were left in the room.

Su Haoran took a sip of tea, looked at Wei Huai'an and finally spoke: "The prince may not know that Ling'er was kidnapped by Su Wanqing, an unfilial daughter who escaped from prison, and son-in-law Song Mingjie to Donggu Island a few years ago, and is the crown prince...... It was the prince who chased her all the way and rescued her. ”

Su Haoran stopped and observed Wei Huai'an's reaction,

Wei Huai'an's face was calm: "I heard about it." But I don't know if it was the prince who made the move. ”

Su Haoran nodded: "Of course, I only found out later." After coming back, there was an epidemic in Songjiang Prefecture, and we were isolated here. I don't think that ten days ago, Ling'er was infected with the epidemic because of talking to an old charcoal seller. At that time, several prefectures and towns near Songjiang were sealed off, and there was nowhere to find a doctor. There was no shadow again, and he ran overnight to find the prince. ”

"Ling'er was in a dangerous situation at that time, and the two people who were sick at the same time in Zhuangzi had been cured, but Ling'er was dying. It was the life-saving medicine that the prince got out of nowhere, so that Ling'er escaped from death. ”

"Shizi, I am telling you this to let you know that the prince has never given up on Ling'er, no matter what kind of face he appears, he has always been around Ling'er."

"The prince is happy with Ling'er, it is Ling'er's blessing and the glory of the Su family, but I advise the prince to think carefully: the prince is not Ling'er's past, and he doesn't know when he will appear."

Su Haoran's heartfelt remarks made Wei Huai'an condense.

"Master Su, what the prince did for Ling'er, does Ling'er know?" Wei Huai'an frowned slightly, thought for a moment and asked.

Su Haoran shook his head: "Ling'er was abducted and sick, and the prince came forward as a shadowless friend. did not reveal his identity in front of Ling'er. ”

"So she didn't know that the prince was secretly helping her in these things?" Wei Huaian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ling'er doesn't know."

"Master Su doesn't plan to tell Ling'er?" Wei Huaian stared at Su Haoran.

"Hey!" Su Haoran sighed: "The prince's fate with her is over, and telling her will also make her more troublesome, so I don't know." ”

After Wei Huai'an heard this, he got up and saluted Su Haoran, and said:

"Master Su, I don't love Ling'er for a day or two. Ever since I met Ling'er, my heart has never allowed anyone else. I swear: I will never disappoint Ling'er like the crown prince. I only want to be with her alone until I grow old in this life. If Master Su hadn't changed his mind, then I would immediately take someone back to Beijing and come to Su's house with my sincerity. ”

Wei Huai'an's generosity impressed Su Haoran, and he got up and helped Wei Huai'an to agree:

"Good, good. Ling'er really didn't choose the wrong person. ”

That night, Wei Huai'an returned to the capital overnight.

The next day, the twenty-fifth day of the first month. Wei Huai'an sat in a luxurious carriage regulated by the prince, and came to the Su family with several carts of gifts and a famous Chu matchmaker in the capital to propose marriage.

Boxes of bride price were carried into the gate of the Su family's Zhuangzi, and everyone in the Su family was stunned: Where did this Wei Shizi come to propose, this is clearly decided.

After welcoming the gorgeously dressed Wei Huai'an into the door, and after being polite again, Su Haoran sat down in the hall.

Mrs. Chu began to use her clever mouth to praise Wei Huai'an to the sky. After praising Wei Huai'an, he praised Su Muling again, and he was ashamed that he didn't find that Wei Huai'an and Su Muling, two people who are rare in the sky and unparalleled in the world, were so perfect.

Su Muling, who was hiding inside, heard the matchmaker's words praising herself, and directly covered her ears.

laughed so much that Xichun teased her: "It turns out that the slave and maid are serving the Nine Heavens Fairy, no wonder the princes and nobles want to marry the young lady, hehe!" ”

Su Muling glanced at her, leaned on the bed, and held Tang Pozi in her arms, thoughtful......

In the hall outside, Su Haoran listened to the matchmaker's words, and nodded happily: "We all see the son of the world in our eyes and like it in our hearts." The little girl can tie the knot with the son, and the old man can't ask for it. ”

When the matchmaker heard that the woman's family happily agreed, she also stood up happily: "Since Master Su has no opinion on this family business, then we will exchange birthdays, and this family business will be settled?" ”

"Okay, then ......"

"Wait!"

Before Su Haoran's words could be spoken, he was interrupted by Wuying who broke in from outside the door.
