Chapter 19 Recruitment

Mingzhu didn't think it was a big deal for King Yu to get married to Su Shangshu's daughter at first. According to herself, she actually didn't understand what kind of mentality she had for this Yu Wangye, she said she liked it, but she couldn't talk about it, at most she had an inexplicable good feeling?

The source of this favor is strange, and Mingzhu herself has not figured it out. But the advantage of the little girl is that she never let the troubles bother her for more than half a day, and to put it mildly, she is a little heartless. If you can't think of it, forget it, Mingzhu turned her head and left this matter behind, building snowmen, having snowball fights, touching fish, roasting rabbits, and the days passed in such a good way, and in a flash, it was the eighth day of the second month of February, the auspicious day of the next appointment calculated by Qin Tian.

The wedding date was set in a hurry, and the whole process was in a hurry, as if the marriage could not be completed if it was one step late. Prince Yu attached great importance to these processes, and personally brought thirty soldiers to escort the mighty dowry team to the Su Mansion.

The gate of the Su Mansion was opened early, and the servant woman who sprinkled the sweep cleaned the gate before dawn, and the old housekeeper of the Su Mansion stood at the door with his hands hanging and stretched his neck and waited, and the noise gradually came from outside the street in the direction of the main gate of the Su Mansion. The first thing that appeared around the corner was the carriage of Prince Yu, and then the wooden boxes tied with red silk were carried by two people in turn. The children on the street were playing and competing for the candied fruit that King Yu had ordered to be scattered, and Mingzhu sat on the wall next door and dangled her legs, scribbling on the melon seeds she had snatched from Li Jiong, who was sitting next to her. The melon seeds are fried very well, the nuts are full, and the bite is full of fragrance, but the pearl is a little absent-minded, and it looks quite tasteless.

When the long dowry procession began to walk towards the gate of Su Mansion, Mingzhu let out a long breath, threw the melon seed shell full of handfuls in his hand, clapped his hands and stood up. The nine-foot-high courtyard wall was ineffective, and she jumped down from the wall, her rabbit fur trimmed cloak unfurled like a butterfly, obscuring the sight of Li Jiong, who was sitting on the wall. Under the cover of the cloak, the scattered melon seed shells shook a trace of blue light before they landed, turning into nothingness and dissipating.

"Let's go, there's nothing lively to see, do you want to go horseback riding with me?" Mingzhu stood under the wall and looked up and squinted and smiled and asked Li Jiong, who was still sitting on the wall, Li Wei looked down and looked at the little girl, and the little girl wrapped in a light blue cloak smiled like a camellia blooming in spring.

Li Wei looked at the little girl under the wall, and suddenly felt that this was not bad. Although there is a slight strange feeling similar to taking advantage of the void, who made the boss blind. With this thought, Li Wei jumped down from the wall neatly, stretched out his hand as usual, and touched Mingzhu's forehead with the usual smile on his face: "The little girl can't stand it!" Where do you want to go? Brother, I'll take you there. ”

"You don't need to bring it," Mingzhu sniffed and reached out to pat the calloused hand on her forehead, "Let's race!" Mingzhu's eyes were shining, "If I win, you will give me your chess game of Master Yi." ”

"Hey, that's been my idea for a long time." Li Wei took an exaggerated step back, holding her hands on her chest like a woman from a good family who was about to be humiliated.

Mingzhu patted him on the shoulder and smiled slyly: "I didn't say that you would definitely lose, did you?" If I lose, dig up the jar of wine that my father has hidden and give you something to drink. As soon as the words fell, he reached out and grabbed his sleeve, Li Wei seemed to be helplessly pulled by her, his eyes moved from the thin white fingers pulling his sleeves to the delicate double bun tied with tassel streamers, and he was secretly amused in his heart.

If Master Ming knew that Mingzhu had allowed the jar of wine as a bet so easily, he would be so angry that he would roll up his sleeves and carry a feather duster to chase down those who dared to drink. Although this wine, he really wanted to drink it openly.

When they left, the old housekeeper of Sufu was already reading the list of dowry, and each reading was accompanied by the sound of "clang" opening the box, and then the old housekeeper's voice became louder as if he had been encouraged, and the sound of singing the salute seemed to be still echoing in his ears when he walked out of the two streets.

In the racecourse in the east of the city, the fiery red divine horse rushed to the front, and the black horse behind was left behind for half a circle. Mingzhu turned around triumphantly and walked towards Li Wei, looking proud like a little rooster who had won the world.

"I've won!" Mingzhu waved her small fist and shouted at Li Wei from afar, Li Wei shook her head helplessly, and waited for her to get closer to the front before she spoke: "Okay, good, I lost to you, I lost to you, I'll give you the chess game when I go back later." ”

"It's a deal!" Mingzhu smiled happily, looking like she had completely forgotten about Yuwang's appointment.

"But..."Li Wei looked at her excited appearance, and decided to explain to her the importance of the jar of wine.

"What?" Mingzhu's eyes narrowed, "You want to regret it?" ”

"What do I regret," Li Wei shook his head, "I want to say, that jar of wine, don't just bet on the jar of wine that your father hid in the future, if you lose the bet, your father is afraid that he will give you a big mouth." ”

"Huh?" Mingzhu asked her soul, "How can my father be so fierce?!" ”

"That wine has to be kept for your marriage," Li Wei patted her head, "How can a little girl think about drinking her own wedding wine every day." ”

Mingzhu suddenly realized, stuck out his tongue, raised a finger and threatened Li Wei with a weak and justified heart: "Don't sue my father!" Otherwise, I'll tell Aunt Jiao that you are bullying me! ”

"You girl!" Li Wei was amused by these words, and reached out to pull the little girl's pigtails, "Be kind to be a donkey's liver and lungs, and threaten my brother I'm coming!" ”

There was a crisp sound of laughter wafting from the racecourse, and the owner of the racecourse, who was sitting on a tree branch in the distance, lit his eyelid and took two puffs, and breathed a smoke ring comfortably: "It's good to be young." ”

After returning from the Chengdong Racecourse, Mingzhu ran into the Li Mansion with a smile. The little girl has become quiet and quiet since she entered the wax moon last year, and this suddenly changed back to her previous lively and active appearance, which makes Mrs. Li very rare.

"Girl, how about dinner at Aunt Jiao's place today?" Mrs. Li touched Mingzhu's head and asked lovingly.

"Okay." Mingzhu responded obediently, Mrs. Li clapped her hands with a smile, turned her head and ordered the kitchen to act, and ordered someone to send a letter to the Ming Mansion next door, and it was not until later that she was a little reluctant to send Mingzhu back.

After sending the little girl away, Mrs. Li turned her head and saw her eldest son with a reluctant face, thinking that he was distressed about the chess game he had just given.

After another count in vain, Li Wei looked aggrieved, and he couldn't reply, hey, he was so angry.
