Chapter 117: Cousin
Zeng Yi had already looked at Jiang Tingxue, "There is still one last girl left, and I don't know what words to measure." ”
Jiang Tingxue has been watching the excitement from the sidelines, but she is very active, but now that it is her turn, she is a little hesitant, she bit her lip and said, "Ah Ling, what words do you say is better?" ”
Xue Ling knew that what Jiang Tingxue wanted to ask was marriage, and her daughter's family was thin-skinned, so she got up with a smile, "Mr. Zeng is very knowledgeable, no matter what words you test, my sister will try it, Yan'er and I will wait for you over there." ”
Crossing the screen, I saw Jiang Xiuwen sitting outside drinking tea.
The outside can only faintly listen to the voices inside, but if you listen carefully, you can still hear it.
Jiang Xiuwen saw Xue Ling and Xue Yan coming out, so he said, "Have you finished the test?" ”
While asking the girl next to him, he said, "What about the soup woman prepared for Miss Xue Si?" ”
A girl had already prepared it, so she brought it over.
Xue Yan took it in her hand and thanked her.
Jiang Xiuwen turned his head sideways and looked inside the screen, only faintly hearing Jiang Tingxue's inquiry.
Jiang Xiuwen couldn't help laughing, "Needless to say, it must have been Tingxue who pulled the two of you over, but Brother Shiyue's word measurement technique is said to be a rare one, Ah Ling, you just talked to him, what do you think?" ”
Xue Ling was about to answer, when she heard the voice of a girl outside the house.
"The eldest son, it's the fourth prince who is here."
After a while, I saw Jiang Xuwen push the door and walk in, first greeted Jiang Xiuwen, and then gave Xue Ling a salute, "Cousin." ”
Only then did he look at Xue Yan, the worry on his face could not be concealed, but he hesitated and said, "Grandmother is very worried, so she specially asked me to come over to see, how is Sister Yan's test?" ”
Xue Ling glanced at it, Jiang Xuwen was twelve or thirteen years old, still immature, and had not yet learned to hide his emotions, but it also gave people the most real feeling.
Because of Xue Yan's relationship, Xue Ling was extremely gentle to Jiang Xuwen, "The test has been completed." ”
Xue Ling knew that her grandmother was worried, but Jiang Xuwen was also really worried.
At their age, the two of them don't have much love for children, but they just have a little more concern and affection than ordinary cousins.
She said to Xue Yan, "Yan'er, why don't you and Cousin Xuwen go to greet your grandmother first, she is worried about the old people in the province, and I will wait for my cousin." ”
Xue Yan hesitated for a while and said, "Sister, then I'll go with Brother Xuwen." ”
Xue Ling shook her hand and felt her hand begin to warm up, so she settled a little, "Go ahead." ”
Jiang Xuwen hurriedly got up and said, "Don't worry, cousin, I will take care of Sister Yan." ”
Xue Ling instructed Xue Yan's personal maid carefully, and then watched the two go away.
Only the sound of the conversation between the two was heard getting farther and farther away.
Jiang Xuwen hesitated and asked, "How is the measurement?" ”
"Fabulous." Xue Yan replied with a smile.
Jiang Xuwen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and laughed, "That's good, I've been worried all night." I heard my sister-in-law say that this Mr. Zeng is extremely accurate in word measurement, and since he said it is good, it should be very good. ”
Xue Yan tilted her head and said, "Really? At the end, he asked, "Are you worried too?" ”
Jiang Xuwen nodded, "Naturally, I'm worried, and my grandmother is also worried, so I specially asked me to take a look, you are also my sister, so I am naturally worried." ”
"Thank you." Xue Yan smiled happily.
The voices of the two faded away.
Xue Ling retracted his gaze.
The room was very silent, only Jiang Tingxue's voice was faintly heard, and it was difficult to hide the shyness of her daughter's family, Xue Ling glanced at it, and was a little envious of her cousin's carefreeness.
The Jiang family has an uncle to sit in the battle, and the eldest cousin also has the ability to take charge on his own.
As the second daughter, Jiang Tingxue just needs to live happily.
People's fate seems to have been predestined, and such a happy and simple life has become a luxury for her sister Xue Yan.
My sister is still young, and that hazy feeling has not yet been revealed, and no matter how old she is, there will always be some girl's thoughts.
She sighed softly, if her sister could be cured, maybe everything would be different.
Jiang Xiuwen's eyes fell on Xue Ling, only as if she was feeling for herself.
"Ah Ling, when you were measuring the words just now, I also faintly heard a little."
Xue Ling listened quietly.
Jiang Xiuwen said, "I have known Brother Shi Yue since I was seven or eight years old, he is indeed a very deep city, but after getting acquainted with it, he is also very sincere, I remember that when he was fifteen years old, he was already famous, and his word measurement skills are inseparable from your Xue family." ”
"Well," Xue Ling nodded, "Mr. Zeng is indeed the real material, and he is definitely not comparable to me." ”
Jiang Xiuwen continued, "Brother Shi Yue is not a warlock who plays with words and words, if he says it, he is naturally a little sure, his temperament is cold and arrogant, and he will never say words to please people, I heard him praise you, and I am very happy for you in my heart." ”
Xue Ling's eyebrows moved.
Jiang Xiuwen said, "Actually, this time, I also heard that the Shiyue Brotherhood will serve as the judge of this witch master's test, so I specially invited it, but at the beginning of the year, he was able to accept it happily, I was still surprised." ”
Xue Ling was stunned, she didn't know that her cousin had invited her.
It turned out to be so.
She stood up and thanked her, "Thank you, cousin." ”
Jiang Xiuwen hurriedly said, "I'm much older than you, in my heart, when you are like Tingxue, my father saw the documents distributed by King Jiangling, and guessed that the Xue family might push you forward, I couldn't help but worry, I wrote to invite, I also hope that you and this Mr. Zeng can have a face-to-face, and wait until the choice of the witch lord in May, maybe it will be smoother." ”
Xue Ling's heart was touched, and he said again, "Thank you cousin for planning for me." ”
Jiang Xiuwen smiled disappreliantly, "The family is close to each other, needless to say, Ah Ling, since Brother Shi Yue said that you are not a thing in the pool, I also believe him, do whatever you want, my father and I will support you." ”
Xue Ling was embarrassed.
After the two finished speaking, they sat for a while, and Jiang Tingxue came over satisfied, with a smile on her face.
The way she came with a smile, Xue Ling couldn't help but laugh when she saw it.
"Alright, let's go." When she said this, the smile on Jiang Tingxue's lips became deeper and deeper.
Xue Ling deliberately asked, "What do you say?" ”
Jiang Tingxue raised her head and said, "I won't tell you, hmph, you don't even ask about marriage, it seems that I am asking alone, how embarrassed." ”
Xue Ling smiled dumbly, "I'm different from you, it's useless for me to ask." ”
Jiang Tingxue felt regretful after hearing this, and hurriedly pulled Xue Ling's hand, "It's me who is open-mouthed, Ah Ling, don't care, I see that the prince of Jiangling is better than the skin, and there are no other benefits, and when it comes to the skin, the son is not as good-looking as Mr. Zeng." ”
