Chapter 740: Helping the Fist

Xie Mulin watched Xiao Rui's back disappear outside the courtyard gate with some annoyance, and secretly stomped his feet.

This guy is so young! How can you say something similar to a flag?! What if something really goes wrong in their marriage?!

But there is no way, Xiao Rui said everything, and Xie Mulin can only try his best to take precautions and not let the mistake really happen.

Though...... Obviously, there will be nothing wrong on the Xie family's side, and if there is a problem, it will also be the Xiao family's side. Xiao Rui's father, General Xiao Mingde, was afraid of King Yan for some reason, and he didn't even plan to accept King Yan's marriage as a matchmaker. Now it seems that King Yan is determined to get past Xiao Mingde, his father, and find another way to settle the marriage between Xiao Rui and her, and it seems that he still has a big grasp. This is certainly a good thing for her and Xiao Rui, but why does she feel a little weird?

Xie Mulin shook his head, put the used teacup into the wooden basin containing the utensils to be washed, checked the sparks in the tea stove again, put the tea canister back in the cupboard, and left the kitchen.

Xiao Rui is gone. Xie Mulin observed for a while in the bamboo forest outside the small courtyard, and when he confirmed that no one was passing outside, he walked out unhurriedly. When she arrived at the stage near the chrysanthemum garden, she happened to bump into Xie Yinghui, who had changed her clothes.

Xie Yinghui was still followed by Ma Yurong's girl Le Xia, and when she saw the second sister, she was not suspicious, and asked with a smile: "You just came from the osmanthus forest?" Fortunately, Yurong asked Le Xia to wait for me near the Water Pavilion, otherwise I would have found the osmanthus forest in a daze, wouldn't I have run a lot of unjust roads in vain? ”

Xie Mulin followed her tone and said: "Yes, I didn't know that Miss Ma and Miss Lu had left when I arrived at Osmanthus Forest, and it was quite tiring to walk all the way, so I found a place to rest for a while, didn't I come late?" ”

"It's not too late, just in time to meet me." Xie Yinghui pulled the second sister into the courtyard with a stage, and immediately saw Ma Yurong and Lu Feiyun sitting on the main seat, and walked over happily.

Ma Yurong and Lu Feiyun hurriedly got up and gave up their seats and invited their sisters to sit down. Ma Yurong beckoned the maid to serve tea and snacks, and said with a smile: "There is a good show, but it's a pity that you came late and didn't listen to it!" Lu Feiyun said with great interest: "I don't know where the troupe found the martial arts, and they can turn fifty or sixty heels in one go!" I can't believe it! He didn't even feel dizzy and panting! I can keep singing! ”

There was a young man on the table next to him who didn't recognize, and excitedly interjected and encouraged Ma Yurong: "Cousin Rong, you ask the housekeeper of your family to tell the people in the troupe, let that martial artist sing again?!" Before the words fell, it immediately attracted the chorus of teenagers and girls from several tables nearby, and it was obvious that everyone liked the fifty or sixty performances.

Ma Yurong said with a smile: "You guys just went around that martial arts, aren't you tired after so many heels?" If you really like it, just reward him generously, and invite this troupe to come to the door another day, are you afraid that you won't be able to see other people's unique skills at that time? ”

The first young man who spoke out to encourage sighed: "This kind of thing, we are not all able to be the head of the family, if we can't take advantage of the two more glances today, God knows when we will be able to see such a wonderful show again!" The elders in the family invited the troupe, and they all listened to the footwrap drama that babbled and sang for a long time and couldn't finish a word! ”

A group of children, most of whom echoed. Another little girl touched her, hugged Lu Feiyun's arm and said coquettishly: "Good cousin, you can help me plead for mercy." If you follow me once, the next time my grandmother trains my aunt again, I will definitely help you out! "It turned out to be the little cousin of Lu Fei's maternal uncle's family.

Lu Feiyun listened to it funny and gave Ma Yurong a look. Ma Yurong had no choice but to send someone to ask the class master, can Wusheng turn dozens of heels? If you can turn it over, ask him to play the trick again, if not, it doesn't matter, there will still be a reward.

After a while, the troupe owner personally talked back and forth. In order to practice, his apprentice didn't turn hundreds or thousands of heels a day? What's so big about it again? When this drama is over, let him go on stage immediately!

The young men and girls of the royal family of the clan were all overjoyed, and they were already impatient to continue listening to the actors on the stage, and they gathered around to discuss which part of the performance they liked the most, and some people planned to ask the owner of the troupe, the price of the door-to-door performance and the recent business quality, etc., obviously planning to take care of the troupe's business. The class owner was very excited, but he lacked skills, and he was dizzy in the inquiries of several classes of little nobles, and he couldn't be busy.

After Ma Yurong instructed her subordinates to look at the reward, she no longer paid attention to the things below. She smiled bitterly and said to the Xie sisters: "Today's drama troupe is good, singing, reading, and playing are good, but it's a pity that the people watching the drama are too noisy, and there are no elders in the town." The people below were afraid that something would happen to them noisyly, so they begged me and Feiyun to come over and preside over the overall situation. If it weren't for my mother's host today, I wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to these children! ”

Xie Yinghui sighed: "You have worked hard! Entertaining guests is a very tiring thing! Especially Her Royal Highness the eldest princess still has business to do today, and she can't spare her hands to take care of anything else, so she can only share her worries. ”

Ma Yurong said with a smile: "Fortunately, my sister-in-law and sister-in-law can all help, I actually just make a little effort, and it's not hard." "As for the current grandmother Ma, she is still confined at home.

Xie Yinghui wanted to find out if the eldest princess of Yongning and Ma Juma had discussed Ma Yurong's marriage recently, and felt that the current environment was not suitable for talking about such a topic, so she was a little eager to stop talking.

Xie Mulin interjected with a smile on the side: "I heard that the eldest brother and the second brother were dragged by several young masters Ma to drink and discuss poetry, but I don't know where they went?" ”

Xie Yinghui glanced back at her with some surprise.

Ma Yurong hurriedly said when she heard this: "Are your brothers drinking again?!" And pulled your brother on the hook too? It's so hard to know what to say! I advised them to drink as little as possible today! My mother has something to do, my sisters-in-law are also busy entertaining guests and presiding over the overall situation, and even I am in charge of watching the children, why are they embarrassed not to help?! ”

Xie Mulin said with a smile: "Don't worry, my eldest brother and second brother are honest people, although they were invited to drink, they will definitely concentrate on tasting poetry and persuade Ma Gongzi to drink less." ”

Xie Yinghui secretly called her second sister hello in her heart.

Ma Yurong became more and more embarrassed: "I told you to see the joke." My eldest brother and second brother are such temperaments, and the third brother will only follow the eldest brother and second brother to mess around, which will affect you. She called a girl beside her, "Go and ask, where are the brothers and the young masters of the Xie family now?" ”

After a while, the girl inquired about the answer and came back to report: "The young masters and the young masters Xie are both composing poems in the Xuan Pavilion diagonally opposite, but they just drank two glasses, and they didn't drink more, so the young lady is at ease." However, the other princes of the palace who were traveling with him had drunk a lot, and some of them were already drunk. ”

Ma Yurong nodded with satisfaction: "It must be the two brothers of the Xie family who persuaded the brothers." Sure enough, those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black. I have to talk to my father and mother about it when I go back, so that my brothers don't mess around with those who only drink all day long and don't do anything serious, and if they want to make friends, they should also make decent scholars like the Xie brothers! ”

Xie Yinghui secretly shook Xie Mulin's hand, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
