Not long after Xiao Rui stepped into the door of the Xie family's main courtyard, Xie Mulin had actually arrived in the main courtyard.

However, she didn't alarm anyone, let alone let her parents know that she was coming, she only gave a look to Lu Yao's house, who was guarding the door of the upper room, and quietly slipped into the north study where the brothers were studying, and stayed here.

She was warmly dressed, and she wore a cloak, and she carried a newly charcoal hand stove in her arms, which was not cold at all.

Ma Lu Yao's family also asked someone to send her a brazier, a foot stove and hot tea snacks, and two more oil lamps, so she stayed more comfortable in the study, and was in the mood to take out a miscellaneous book from under the seat of the third brother Xie Huizhi and slowly flip through it to pass the time.

Although her attention was basically on the upper room, she didn't read a few words at all.

When Ma Lu Yao's family came to Wen to send a message and asked her to go to the upper room to meet her fiancé, she threw the book on the table, hugged the stove and said, "I'm sitting here warmly, and I don't want to go out to blow the northwest wind at all." Aunt Ma told my mother for me, just ask Xiao Rui to come to see me, and I won't move. ”

Ma Lu Yao's family was taken aback, and then smiled: "Second girl, you can't say such things." The old lady called you to go to the room to see your future uncle, which is to hurt you, so that you can have a chance to talk more with your future uncle. How can you tell your future uncle to come to you by herself? Let outsiders know, it's a joke! ”

Xie Mulin said: "I have a serious marriage with him, sooner or later we will become husband and wife, how common it is to meet each other, what is the joke?" What's more, I wasn't going to do anything bad. This study is transparent, through the wide glass window, what can't be seen? I just sat here and waited for Xiao Rui, and when he came, he sat across the table and talked to me. We chatted in a regular manner, my father and mother could see it through the window in the main house, and you could see it when you looked up in the yard, what is there to talk about? Her purpose is that she doesn't want to talk to Xiao Rui under the noses of her parents, and she has to have a lot of scruples about everything. It's good in the study, people outside can see what they're doing, but they can't hear a word, she can ask Xiao Rui about things as much as she wants, and Xiao Rui can talk to her with confidence.

Ma Lu Yaojia hesitantly looked at the window, and then looked in the direction of the upper room, and felt that the second girl's words were also reasonable. However, she is the companion that the Wen family relies on, so she is naturally not a stupid person, so she quickly guessed Xie Mulin's mind and said with a smile; "Does the second girl want to whisper something to her future uncle, and are she afraid that the old lady will hear it? What a big girl! I even know how to think about it! ”

Xie Mulin lowered his head embarrassedly, and softly begged Ma Lu Yao's family: "Aunt Ma, you can help me back." If it weren't for the fact that my marriage with him was decided two days in advance, I was afraid that someone would want to rob him. I have to ask Xiao Rui to understand, what the hell is going on? Did he have anything to do with that girl? How can this kind of thing be good in front of my father? I seem to be stingy and jealous......"

Ma Lu Yao's family immediately understood, and said with a smile: "I know, I'll go tell my wife." Mrs. has always loved girls, and most of them will not refuse. But what will the lord say, I don't dare to pack the ticket. ”

Xie Mulin said: "Aunt Ma just go." If Daddy really refuses to agree, you wave to me at the door of the upper room, and I will pass by when I see it, and I will not cause you to be scolded. She didn't believe that Xiao Rui would not want to seize such a good opportunity when she encountered it!

Ma Lu Yao's family went with a smile, and after less than a cup of tea, the cotton curtain in the upper room was raised, Xiao Rui walked out, stood on the steps and smiled towards the study. The corners of Xie Mulin's mouth curled slightly, and he knew that he had really seized this opportunity.

Ma Lu Yao's family rushed in before Xiao Rui entered the study, and sent a few more candlesticks in, which illuminated the study more brightly. Now this study is really clear, no matter where you look at it from the main courtyard, there are no secrets to speak of. Xie Mulin didn't care, holding the hand stove and carrying the foot stove, he moved himself to the small kang by the window, and sat down on the foot stove again. Don't look at the fact that this place is closer to the window and the hand-copying verandah outside, in fact, there is a small kang to cover, and a certain amount of privacy can still be guaranteed.

Xiao Rui lifted the cotton curtain and walked in, smiled brightly at Xie Mulin, and before he could open his mouth to say hello, Ma Lu Yao's family came in with a tea tray again. He immediately changed the expression on his face, and made a very polite gesture to Xie Mulin: "I've seen Second Sister Xie." How is Second Sister Xie doing recently? ”

Xie Mulin got up and saluted back: "I've seen Xiao Ergongzi, I've been fine recently." Have a seat. The two and a half teenagers politely sat down on the edge of the small kang across a kang table. Ma Lu Yao's family sent hot tea and snacks, added a few more pieces of new charcoal to the brazier, and gave Xie Mulin a look: "If the girl has any orders, just call someone." We're all waiting outside. Xie Mulin nodded: "Aunt Ma has worked hard." Ma Lu Yao's family went out.

There were only two people left in the room, Xie Mulin and Xiao Rui. Xiao Rui stared at Xie Mulin for a few moments, and suddenly smirked.

Xie Mulin asked in a low voice, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Xiao Rui grinned: "Now that we have made a marriage, we are a legitimate unmarried couple!" I came to your house openly, and no one stopped me! Even your father and mother didn't say that I wouldn't be allowed to meet you, and they promised us to talk in the same room! ”

Xie Mulin secretly looked out the window in the direction of the upper room, and his cheap parents moved to the window to sit and drink tea, and they were closely monitored! She and Xiao Rui can only talk, but if he dares to reach out and touch her, let's see if Xie Pu will talk so well next time!

However, Xiao Rui was happy that the marriage between the two was officially settled, and Xie Mulin also felt a little sweet in his heart: "We can only talk, you can't come over, and you are not allowed to hold my hand!" Otherwise, it would be a pity that my father won't allow you to come back in the future! ”

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, our marriage is decided, I have a chance to hold your hand in the future, don't worry now." I'm just sitting and watching you, and my heart is beautiful. ”

Xie Mulin was a little shy: "You are still beautiful!" Do you know what's going on today? ”

Of course, Xiao Rui knew what was going on: "That's why I came here to make amends to my father-in-law and mother-in-law." I shouldn't have hidden it from them, but the emperor had an order, and my father and I couldn't disobey the order. In fact, I have long wanted to confess to my father-in-law, otherwise every time I see him, I am in my heart, I am afraid that after he knows the truth, he will get angry for a while, scold me for cheating on marriage, and refuse to marry you, so what should I do?! ”

Xie Mulin was a little unimpressed: "My father is not such an unreasonable person. As long as you behave like in the past, you are upright, humble and courteous, and not look at no one because you have a noble status, how can my father ruin the marriage? She also stared at Xiao Rui and said, "Now your background is no longer a secret, and some people covet you." But now people want to rob you from me, and I scolded her back in front of so many people. Now everyone knows that you and I are an unmarried couple, and I have no intention of being humble, and I must dominate you to the end! If you want to change the hexagram, it will be a slap in my face, and I will never let you go, do you know?! ”

Xiao Rui grinned again: "I know, it's good, it's good." My good Mulin, you just have to take me to the end. I don't want anyone but you! ”
