Chapter 9 Appointment (2)
Linglong's side.
"Daddy, mother, I'm back. Linglong carried a lantern and ran happily into the Li Mansion.
"Thanks to Xue Gongzi's love, it's just that my wife and I are really reluctant to marry the little girl, and I hope that the matchmaker will find someone else!"
"Master Li, this son of the Xue family is a good marriage that he has begged for eight lifetimes, the family has been an official for generations, and now his only sister is still married into the main room of the palace, which can be described as a promising future! This Xue Gongzi has just turned eighteen, he is in his prime, and he is a talent, what a blessing he is to fall in love with your young lady!
"Yes, yes, I understand, but I really don't want to be a little girl, you also know that I have no other children except for the little girl, and I hope the matchmaker will be considerate and considerate. ”
"Hmph, Master Li, you really don't know what to do, just don't regret it in the future!" The matchmaker was a little angry, turned around and left.
"Well, the matchmaker walks slowly, and I won't send it. ”
happened to encounter this scene and looked at Master Li with some confusion.
Master Li glanced at Linglong and shook his head. Hint to her, don't speak, and wait for the matchmaker to leave before explaining the reason.
Linglong obediently stepped aside and saw the matchmaker quickly walking out of the Li Mansion.
"Daddy, are you asking for a kiss again?"
"Do you still know, what are you dressed in, can't you look like a lady?"
Yes... I started nagging again, how is my dad like a verbose mother-in-law, is menopause coming, no, daddy has already passed menopause at this age, why are you still so verbose, who will save me!
"You're not young anymore, you can't be so reckless anymore, if you are looked down upon by others, doesn't it mean that I have no way to teach my daughter?"
"Oh!" Linglong pouted, rubbing her heel.
"Also, I know you don't like the matchmaker's introduction, you like the son of the Wang family, but everyone is not too young, why don't you see him come to the door to propose, if it goes on like this, he will be made fun of by others. ”
"I, I want to too, but Brother Xiao Yi didn't mention it, and I can't force others, right?"
"Then I'll ask for you next time?"
"Don't, don't, daddy, don't go!" Linglong panicked. It's been ten years, doesn't Brother Xiao Yi really have other thoughts about me? If my father asks and he refuses, how will I meet him and how will I get along with him in the future.
"Then what do you say yourself!" Master Li was a little angry.
"Master, isn't your attitude a little excessive!" As soon as the lady heard that Master Li was blaming Linglong, she immediately rushed over.
"Ma'am, why are you here? ”
"If I don't come, what are you going to do to force Linglong to stop?"
"This, madam, I'm also anxious, you see this person who comes to the door every day to propose, I am exhausted in refusal, and I am afraid of offending the royal nobles. I didn't mean to let Linglong do that, I was just worried. ”
"Then you should have a good talk with Linglong, shouldn't you?"
"Well, ma'am, you're right. Linglong, what are your plans for the future? ”
"I, I don't know. Linglong lowered her head, not daring to look directly at the two.
"Linglong, my father and I don't mean to blame you, it's just that you are really old now, and you still stay with the prince of the Wang family like this, you will be laughed at by others if you are nameless and pointless, and you don't cherish your reputation. ”
Linglong's heart tightened, indeed, I used to be young, and others wouldn't say it, but now it's different, what should I do? Take the initiative to talk to Brother Xiao Yi? How will he reply to me?
Madame walked to Linglong's side, hugged Linglong, didn't say anything, and pulled Master Li away.
Linglong was now in place, and he didn't move half a step.
Tonight, when I put out the lanterns, I asked him, how do you ask, and ask him when he will marry me? Or do you ask him if he thinks anything else about me? Will it be too direct, but today, I seem to have disappointed my parents. I can't do this anymore, yes, I should be brave, Brother Xiao Yi and I grew up together, he must like me, otherwise why would he be so good to me. Even if you don't like it at first, after being together for so long, you should have fallen in love for a long time, right? Well, I must ask tonight, and I can count myself as an answer!
After dinner, Linglong carried the lantern, thinking about going to the river earlier to give himself some confidence.
Originally, she had always been in men's clothes, but she changed into bright and moving women's clothes, which was even more charming under this hazy night scene.
When Linglong came to the river, she saw that the familiar figure was already there. Sure enough, he has always kept his promise, and he has never been late.
"Brother Xiao Yi, I'm here. Linglong took a deep breath and shouted at the familiar figure.
Xiao Yi heard the prestige, and saw Linglong carrying a few lanterns, and his eyes were full of smiles. The goose-yellow clothes are reflected on the delicate face under the illumination of the light, it is so bright, like a fairy falling from the sky, yes, it is a fairy. Xiao Yi couldn't help but stay there when he looked at Linglong.
"What is Brother Xiao Yi thinking? Linglong ran to Xiao Yi and asked.
"No, nothing. Xiao Yi immediately lowered his head, for fear of being seen in his embarrassment.
"Really, I think you're peeking at me, don't admit it!" Linglong raised an eyebrow.
"You. ”
"What are you, yes, yes, no, no, the husband must dare to act. ”
"I just see that you seem a little different than you used to. ”
"What's the difference?"
"I can't say that. ”
"If you can't say it, you won't say it. Shall we put the lanterns first tonight or go to the night market first?"
"I can do it, what do you want to do first?" Xiao Yi secretly glanced at Linglong, and found that Linglong was still looking at him with a smile.
"Then let's put the lanterns first, and then visit the night market. ”
"Hmm. ”
The two came to the pool, in addition to them, many people were also putting lanterns, the two of them joined did not change anything, but it formed a beautiful picture, the son and the beauty, no one wants to disturb this tranquility.
"Brother Xiao Yi, let's put down the lantern and make a wish. ”
"Hmm. ”
"I'm greedy, I want a few more, hehe. ”
"Hmm. ”
"Then I'll start it, and you'll have to make a wish. ”
"Hmm. ”
"I count one, two, three, and then we're together. ”
"Hmm. ”
Linglong clenched her hands into fists and placed them in front of her, closed her eyes, and whispered something in her mouth. Xiao Yi looked at Linglong and began to be stunned again.
"How am I, what about you?" Linglong tilted her head and found Xiao Yi looking at herself.
