Chapter 750: Surprised
The Song family did not seem surprised by the arrival of Xie Xianzhi, Xie Yinghui and Xie Mulin. She and Xie Meijun's mother and daughter, who were full of surprise, received the three siblings with a smile.
It's just a little unfortunate that Xie Jinzhi and Yang Chun went out to visit friends together, and they were not in the village at this time.
Although Xie Xianzhi regretted that his best brother was not there, he came here for his sister, so he didn't think much about it. It's just that in front of so many people, he took care of his sister's face, so he was a little hesitant whether he should ask the Song family directly about Huangyan.
He was still hesitating, and the others had already begun to gossip, and everyone was pleasantly surprised to learn that the eldest princess of Yongning had sent her eldest daughter-in-law to the Xie family to convey some kind of hint. Song smiled: "I often hear Sister Hui talk about this horse girl on weekdays, she is a girl who is wise and honest. It would be a blessing if he could marry her. Don't take it lightly, remember to behave politely in front of the Ma family, and be sure to let them see the best side of you. ”
Xie Xianzhi's face turned red, and he quickly got up and responded respectfully.
Regarding the marriage of the Ma family, everyone did not discuss it for too long, after all, there is no one in the eight characters, no matter how much it is said, it all depends on how the eldest princess of Yongning and the husband and wife of Ma Juma decide. However, about the banquet in Guiyuan yesterday, Xie Meijun and Yang Yuan's mother and daughter were still very interested, and the latter pulled Xie Yinghui and Xie Mulin to inquire for a long time, and was particularly interested in the novel dishes and pastries at the banquet; The former asked about the Ma brothers' temptation of Xie Xianzhi, and wanted to know what kind of poems they had made for the boys' poems.
Xie Xianzhi had to get up with a red face and go to the study next door, to write down the poems he remembered one by one, and ask his aunt Xie Meijun to taste them.
Xie Meijun followed to the study and sent Yang Yuan to the kitchen to order today's lunch.
Xie Mulin and Xie Yinghui stayed by Song's side, and when they saw that there was no one around, they hurried up and asked, "Grandmother, have you read the letter that your father wrote to you?" Is there any mention of Huang Juren in it? ”
Song smiled slightly and glanced at Xie Yinghui. Xie Yinghui blushed suddenly, lowered her head, pulled her handkerchief and didn't speak.
Song still didn't understand anything, so he asked Xie Mulin with a smile: "It seems that your mother also told you in the letter?" The two of them can be regarded as attentive, and after watching for a few years, they picked such a young talent. If the temperament can be similar to Sister Hui'er, it is also a good marriage. I just don't know what you think, Sister Hui'er? She turned her head to look at Xie Yinghui.
Xie Yinghui tugged at the handkerchief, her face flushed. She really didn't have the courage to answer this kind of question.
Xie Mulin spoke for her: "The eldest sister has many concerns, feeling that she is the granddaughter of the Cao family, and she may be dragged down by the reputation of the foreign family and her biological mother, and I am afraid that it will affect the husband's family in the future." She heard that Huang Juren was very good, but she was afraid that she would harm others. I think she's thinking too much, and the key is whether the two of them are happy or not. The Cao family has long been irrelevant people, they have only seen each other for a few years, and they will be separated by thousands of miles in the future, even if they say goodbye, they will only do it according to etiquette. If you are a person who has a heart for the eldest sister, she will not care about the Cao family; If you care about the Cao family, you won't be worthy of the eldest sister if you suffer from gains and losses for this. ”
Song nodded: "That's true." Sister Hui doesn't have to be presumptuous, just ask her heart, whether she is happy or not. ”
Xie Yinghui plucked up her courage and whispered: "Whether I'm happy or not is secondary, the important thing is ...... He was not happy. It can't be because my father is a high-ranking official and used to be kind to him, he has no intention of marrying me, and he doesn't dare to refuse...... I can't do this kind of bullying thing! That's not a marriage, it's a feud! ”
Xie Pu and Cao Shuqing's marriage is a feud, the Cao family has gained countless benefits, but Xie Pu is a blood loss, and Cao Shuqing does not necessarily take advantage of anything. Xie Yinghui has watched her parents not get along since she was a child, and she never wants to follow her mother's old path. She wants to prove to her mother that she has chosen the right side, and of course she has to take a completely different path from her mother.
Song looked at Xie Yinghui's expression and showed a relieved smile: "I'm very happy that you can think so." To tell you the truth, although your father never explicitly told the Huang family about the marriage, he never told them about the experience of your brother and sister. Ziheng is smart, and he has already guessed the clue, but he just doesn't show it. When he saw you in your mansion that day, and after visiting me, he made it clear to me that he intended to marry, but he was afraid that because of the gossip of others, and seeing that someone was willing to propose, he wronged himself to marry, instead of taking a fancy to him as a person, so he agreed. Ziheng hopes that I can draw the strings from this, express his heart to you, let you follow your true thoughts, decide whether to agree to this family business, and never force yourself. Unexpectedly, you came here today, but you said such a thing to me again...... You're a great match, you're a good boy! ”
Xie Yinghui and Xie Mulin were both taken aback. The former's face turned red, and the latter asked directly: "Did Huang Yan tell you such a thing?!" But how did he know...... How do you know that the eldest sister will have such an idea?! ”
Song pursed his lips and chuckled: "God knows what your father said in front of Ren Ziheng?" He only saw Sister Hui'er, and he had already guessed your thoughts. He doesn't wronged himself, he just thinks that you are very suitable for his eyes, and it happens that your father has this intention, so he should be more active and take the initiative to tell you what he thinks. As for whether the two of you can eventually become a family and whether you can get along in the future, it depends on his ability. This child is very assertive and confident in himself. I was a little surprised that he was too confident. But since you've said that to me today, you know that you're a good match. If I have intentions, why shouldn't I? ”
Xie Mulin was a little confused. She looked at Xie Yinghui, a little unsure: "It's indeed the first time you've met, right?" But he used to grow up in the capital, maybe you two have seen it before? Did he already have an idea about you? It's just that he didn't have a chance before, but now that he has it, he immediately made up his mind? ”
Xie Yinghui's heart was in turmoil: "I'...... I don't know, when I saw him that day, although I felt kind and couldn't take my eyes off, but ...... I don't think I know him! I haven't heard his name either! ”
Xie Mulin froze, clasped his palms together and said, "At least now we can safely say that you both have some love at first sight for each other." Then, eldest sister, you can further understand him. If you find out in the end that he is a reliable person who is worthy of being entrusted for life, and the two of you are interested in each other, isn't that just right?! It couldn't have been more perfect! ”
"But......" Xie Yinghui hesitated, "why did he guess my thoughts?" Was it really his father who told him? My father didn't tell him anything about marrying, so how could he tell him what was on my mind? Moreover...... There's no way my father would know what I thought......"
Xie Mulin smiled: "You're here, since you can't figure it out, why don't you ask him directly?" ”
