Chapter 42: Awake

Ji Wan's heart was temporarily settled, and at first he was afraid that Qin Heng would not take her words seriously when he saw that she was still a child.

"Guan'er, have you ever thought that since the emperor rejected the proposal of the four princes, maybe he would make other arrangements for your marriage." Qin Hengcai stretched his eyebrows and furrowed again, looking at Ji Wan with complicated eyes, his face was very solemn.

There are no four princes and three princes, the monarch's heart is unpredictable, and no one knows what the emperor thinks.

Qin Heng didn't want Ji Wan to marry into the royal family, how could the princess be so easy to do, the palace would drive people crazy, and if they took the heir in the future, it would be even more miserable, every day was like walking on thin ice, not to mention losing their lives if they were not careful, the whole family would be folded inside, the Qin family had already lost a daughter in the palace, and they didn't want her to be the second one.

Ji Wan immediately understood the meaning of his words, smiled faintly, and didn't care: "Uncle is too worried, there are so many famous and noble girls, and there are many famous ladies with good family and talent, Guan'er can only be regarded as a small transparent among them, and the statement outside is not obvious, the emperor loves the three princes so much, how could he choose such a talented woman as the princess for him." ”

Then he sneered: "It's just that you will pay more attention to my marriage, and maybe you will personally point out a marriage to me, but at the moment I am still young, and I still have a few years to go, so I don't have to worry too much." ”

Although it was reasonable to hear her say this, Qin Heng was not relieved, and still looked preoccupied.

This child is young, there are many famous families, but most of them are just good names, but there are not many people like her, her father is the prime minister of the dynasty, the head of the literati, and her grandfather is the prince of Su Guo, who has real power, holding hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Daxi, how can she not make people hot, even if she is ugly and shameless, there are many people who are in a hurry to ask for marriage.

"You girl is too arrogant, in the eyes of my uncle, Guan'er is very good, but the royal family is not a good destination, glory and wealth are like passing clouds, just looking at the scenery on the face, in fact, I am worried every day, uncle only hopes that you can live this life safely and happily in the future, I think your mother should think the same."

Qin Heng said in the end, he sighed deeply, he didn't want her to worry too much, many words rolled on his tongue and swallowed in the end, anyway, he was still his uncle in front of him.

Ji Wan knew that he was really thinking about himself to say such a thing, and a trace of warmth swelled up in his heart.

"But you still have to be careful, your father is unreliable, there will always be times when your uncle can't protect you, and you are almost old enough to be able to say goodbye, don't let that villain make a fuss about your marriage."

Ji Guan's eyes flashed slightly, and he unconsciously sounded the alarm in his heart: "Thank you uncle for reminding me, Guan'er will pay attention, but there is still a grandmother in the house, and my father should not dare to decide my marriage without authorization." ”

Of course, if it can be exchanged for huge benefits, it is another matter, and what is the value of an unfavored daughter to his father?

"You don't have to be too nervous, you can send someone to the Suguo Mansion to find your uncle at any time, and your uncle will make the decision for you." Qin Heng had a loving smile on his face, looked up at the sky and continued: "It's been so long, your aunt and uncle must be in a hurry, let's go back." ”

Ji Wan waved away the depression in his heart and responded yes, followed Qin Heng and walked back, chatting all the way, before returning to the front hall, and at the door, he heard the laughter and laughter coming out inside, and Ji Ran and Qin Lie's voices were particularly loud.

The two entered the main hall one after the other, and everyone's eyes looked at it at once.

"Your nephews and uncles are back, Xianggong, don't you know how well-behaved and sensible Xiao Ran's child is, but it hurts, unlike our two debt collectors who give me a headache every day, I want to take this child back to be raised as a son." The Ran clan held Ji Ran in one hand and looked at Qin Heng with a smile.

As soon as Ji Ran saw Ji Wan coming in, his fawn-like eyes burst out with a faint light, twisted his body and jumped out of Ran's arms, ran over in small steps, and snuggled up to Ji Wan's side affectionately.

Qin Heng shook his head with a smile, and said helplessly: "You have to see if others are happy or not, Ji Xiangke is such a son." ”

"Hmph, I haven't seen how much a son loves him, it's better to be a child of our Qin family." Ran's face was not angry, and his words revealed his disdain for Ji An.

"Okay, what are you talking about, the child is still here." Qin Heng smiled, he could see that Ji Ran, the child, still had expectations for Ji An's father in his heart.

Ran stopped talking and sighed slightly, she loved these two children from the bottom of her heart, but she was helpless.

Qin Zhao held the teacup without saying a word, and glanced at Ji Wan meaningfully, he had always been careful, after his father came back, he had already noticed a subtle change in his father's attitude towards this cousin, not like an adult to a child, but with some appreciation in it, which made him very curious.

It's just that he rarely paid attention to Ji Wan in the past, and he didn't remember her appearance too much, and he couldn't remember it, but today's experience left a deep impression on him.

Qin Can still looked like an old god who was impatient, but he had always been like that, and no one cared about his attitude.

Everyone chatted for a while, and when most of the hour had passed, Qin Heng and the others were going back to the house, and it was a courtesy to say goodbye to the main house before leaving as guests, Ji Wan led them to Ci'an Hall together, planning to say hello to Mrs. Ji, as for Ji An, even if it was enough, there was no need to make face.

It was very quiet in Ci'an Hall, and Mama Lin got the notice from the doorkeeper and quickly returned to Mrs. Ji.

When Ji Wan and his party came in with Xia He, Mrs. Ji was already sitting in the hall waiting, with a suitable smile on her face.

"Old lady, it's not too early, the juniors and others are here to say goodbye." Qin Heng and Qin Lie were slightly blessed.

Old Madam Ji knew that they would never stay in the mansion to eat, and she didn't say that polite word, so she nodded: "Even so, the old body will not keep you, so I will come to the mansion to sit more when I have time." ”

Then I couldn't help but ask again, "How is your mother doing?" ”

Qin Heng's body stiffened slightly for a moment, but quickly returned to normal, and said with a smile: "My mother's body is quite tough. ”

After saying this, I won't say more, my mother trusted Mrs. Ji because of the love between her and Mrs. Ji, so she married her little sister to Ji An.

Although both sides are at fault, it is a pity that the mistake has been made and there is no turning back.

Old Madam Ji closed her eyes tiredly and asked Mama Lin to send them out.
