CHAPTER XXVI
"Nine Emperor Princes!"
"Yu Ning!"
Ruhuan and Yu Jun stopped one after another, but Yu Wan stopped speaking at this time, as if waiting to see the excitement.
Ruhuan's status was low, and he didn't dare to speak, and looked at Yu Jun like help. Yu Jun persuaded: "Yu Ning, calm down, Ruqing is a girl who is going to marry, it is very inappropriate for you to see her like this, and if you are too sick, isn't this trapping her in injustice." ”
Yu Ning hesitated, he had to admit that Yu Jun was right, this is definitely not a good time to see Ruqing, but if you don't see it again, it will be irreparable, do you have to wait until after Ruqing gets married. No, the young man has a cluster of fire in his heart, and it will explode at the slightest touch, he is the pride of the sky, and he can get everything he wants.
Yu Ning broke free of Yu Jun's hand and ran towards the backyard by himself.
"Alas! Yu Ning, don't be impulsive! Yu Jun was so anxious that he couldn't do it, but even he was embarrassed to go directly to the backyard to see the girl, so he had to ask Yu Wan Yu Yan, "Two sisters, you two go and stop it, it's not a proper way." ”
Yu Yan was about to go, Yu Wan grabbed her wrist and stopped, "Third brother, that's the Nine Emperor Princes, who of us can stop it, besides, what kind of system will it become, the image of me and Yan'er is also to be taken care of." ”
Yu Jun sighed and had to go by himself. As soon as he chased the Nine Emperor Princes to the courtyard, he followed up and reported to the gatehouse and pretended to be right, "What are you doing in a panic?" ”
The porter said: "Happy event, it's the eldest prince of the Qiyang Mansion who came to propose his relatives, and I will go to tell the old lady." ”
What the?
Yu Jun and Yu Ning who were not far away were both stunned, and Yu Jun asked, "Didn't you come a few days later, why did you have to advance it?" ”
"I don't know about this little one." The porter only passed the word, so naturally he didn't know this, "Third son, I'll go and reply." ”
Yu Jun waved his hand and looked at Yu Ning, who was pale, and felt a little sorry for him.
Yu Ning stood in front of the door of the front and back yards, neither advancing nor retreating, he had grown so big, he had never been so embarrassed, annoyed, sad and embarrassed were intertwined in his heart, and it was not uncomfortable to stir up.
Did you just give up? He leaned against the wall and thought helplessly, he and Ruqing were no longer closed.
"Yu Ning," Yu Jun came over to comfort him, "Don't be like this, you can't force a marriage event, if Ruqing is happy, you should also be happy for her, right?" ”
yes, as long as she's happy.
When Qi Yanzhi came in, he met Yu Ning Yu Jun who was about to leave in the courtyard, he sat in a wheelchair and nodded politely to Yu Ning, "Nine Emperor Princes." ”
This person has always been so humble and not arrogant, no matter who he sees, he is so indifferent, Yu Ning saw this before, and only felt that he was maintaining his dignity, after all, a young master of the palace, even if he became lame, he had to be decent, and even sympathized with him. But today's close contact found otherwise, Qi Yanzhi is not just bluffing to maintain dignity, he is really calm and calm, with peace and wisdom that is difficult for him to have at his age, as if everything in the world is in his eyes and under him, he seems to be standing on the highest place in a wheelchair.
Like, just like that girl, she has a similar look to this man between her eyebrows, they all seem to be out of the shell of the body, with souls that no one else can see.
I don't know why, Yu Ning is a little dead, he feels that he can't get into the gap between these two people at all, as if they are not all the way at all.
"Well," Yu Ning nodded, "Congratulations to Gongzi Qi, I still have something to do, and I'll come to congratulate you another day." ”
After finishing speaking, he left, Yu Jun had to go back to the palace to take up his post, so he had to follow, "What kind of eldest son, I'll leave too, let's talk about it another day." ”
Qi Yanzhi nodded and pushed the wheelchair to the front hall.
Hearing that the eldest prince of Qi came to the door to propose marriage, the old lady and the women in the family rushed to the front hall to meet him, and they all wondered why he came early.
Qi Yanzhi took the initiative to explain: "I asked someone to calculate the auspicious day, and everything is suitable today, so I made my own claim in advance, and I asked the old lady to forgive me." ”
What is there to forgive or not forgive this, after all, it is a happy event, it is an auspicious day, it is called a heart, how can the old lady have a gift of blame, "It's okay, it's just a little sudden, and there is nothing to prepare at home, I'm afraid to be sluggish - quickly serve good tea to Qi Gongzi." ”
The old lady ordered, and the Zhang family led people to be busy on the tea and fruit plate on the ground, and the Zhang family was outgoing, and said and laughed at the indifferent Qi Dagongzi, "Qi Gongzi is really hearted, I am afraid that the proposing team outside is not going to line up at the city gate?" ”
Everyone laughed along, although her words were exaggerated, but they were not false, the pomp and circumstance of mentioning relatives was indeed smacking, that is, the palace had a family background, just this pomp, ordinary people are afraid that they are going bankrupt?
And no one expected that Qi Yanzhi would come in person, after all, this son has never been shown in front of others, it can be seen that he is very concerned about this family business, and the girls present are envious, this Qi eldest son has not only bad legs and feet, but also satisfies all the girls' fantasies about their future husbands.
"Why didn't my aunt come?" Yu Wan interjected and asked, this question, the scene that was still harmonious and joyful was embarrassing all of a sudden.
As we all know, the princess is the master of the palace, and the relationship between Qi Yanzhi and the princess is tense, no matter how decent and pompous your eldest son Qi is, he is an idle son, Xie Ruqing naturally has no status when he marries in the past, and there is really nothing to envy.
Ruhuan followed the ancestor and looked at the girl's future husband in the same way, they all knew that Yu Wan didn't like Xie Ruqing and always deliberately made things difficult, but it was reasonable for her to ask questions, and no one could blame her for asking badly. If Qi Yanzhi is silent, it is equivalent to recognizing the sarcasm of others, and he is nothing more than Xie Ruqing, who is going to marry the door, then others don't need to care, and then the ladies and ladies in the capital will look down on Xie Ruqing.
This is how people praise the high and the low, and the secret comparison between the noble ladies abounds, there are those who are not liked but are envied, there are also those who are laughed at behind the superficial scenery, and there are those who make people envious and jealous from the bottom of their hearts, and they want to become others, and they can't do it for a lifetime.
Qi Yanzhi smiled lightly, glanced at Yu Wan politely, and said, "My marriage with Ruqing is naturally something I should come." ”
The implication has nothing to do with others, and you can't help outsiders to make irresponsible remarks.
Ruhuan suddenly laughed in her heart, the future uncle is much more qualified than she imagined, at least he knows how to stand up for the girl. In the past few days, the girl has been frequently squeezed by Yu Yan, and the girl can see it if she doesn't speak, but she can't see it, just because she has a bad identity and openly offends Yu Yan.
Yu Yan stirred the handkerchief with his fingers, and he was very unconvinced, so he had to comfort himself and said: Speaking of which, he is a dumb man who marries a lame man, and he will not be able to get out of his life.
"Yan Zhi has a heart." The old lady smiled, at this time she really believed Ruqing's words, this Qi eldest prince is really not a thing in the pool, just the bearing between words, it is not comparable to ordinary sons, "Your mother should say everything with me, it is the same whether you come or not, and you have the final say on the matter of marriage, I will do it for you." ”
Qi Yanzhi nodded in agreement.
Xie Ruqing listened to Ruhuan's 1510 information, and also felt that Qi Yanzhi was a very responsible person, and felt more and more that he was very wise to choose this family business.
"Girl, I see that the eldest prince is very handsome, I don't know why I have never paid attention to it before, they all say that the Nine Emperors are the best-looking princes in the capital, and today I compare them, and I actually think that the eldest prince is more generous."
Xie Ruqing agreed, Qi Yanzhi was sharp and introverted, everyone couldn't pay attention to him before, just because he didn't want to be noticed, this person's insight and bearing were beyond the reach of ordinary people, at least among the people she was familiar with, no one could match.
"Didn't you see the envious eyes of the girls in the house, even the ancestors admired him very much." Ruhuan is happy for the girl in her heart, there are gains and losses, although the uncle is disabled, but other aspects are good, just like the girl Although she can't speak, she is also the best girl.
The auspicious day is set in two months, and Xie Ruqing needs to prepare a dowry for the rest of the time, she has no mother, and her father can't count on it, so she naturally has to rely on the general's mansion. The old lady used her private room to give her fifty percent, and the princess also paid twenty percent in private, and the uncles and aunts in the general's mansion made up one percent, and the remaining twenty percent was left after her mother's death.
Although the dowry is not very luxurious, it is considerable, at least it is a lot for Xie Ruqing, especially the old lady secretly stuffed her with a lot of real estate.
"You don't have a mother or brothers and sisters to help you, you can only rely on yourself in the future, I will leave you more, so that the future will not be stretched."
Xie Ruqing had no choice but to accept it, and he was grateful for the love of his ancestors.
It's just that the old ancestor used his private house to prepare a dowry for her has attracted a lot of complaints, according to the convention, the juniors in the house will marry, the old lady will give some, and there is a quota for whomever to give, bias is easy to cause family conflicts, the old lady simply gives the same amount, but Xie Ruqing's dowry is obviously more than twice as much as others.
Some don't say it, they taste it in their hearts, and some just hang it on their faces, so Yu Wan doesn't know how many times she has teased her openly and secretly.
The hearts of the people can't stand the incitement, and the sisters in the house gradually become estranged from her, and they used to play together, but now except for the aftermath, almost no one is willing to look for her.
Of course Xie Ruqing doesn't care, she didn't live for these people in this life, and it will be a big deal not to get along with each other in the future.
It's just that she is quiet here, but some people refuse to let go, and when there are still three days before getting married, the house where she pretends to be a dowry suddenly catches fire.
It was the second half of the night, and it was the time when the guards in the yard were at their worst, and no one noticed the fire at first, and it had burned for a while when someone found out.
The fire alarmed the mansion, and the houses woke up before dawn, but fortunately, the general's mansion was full of men, women and children who practiced martial arts, and it was very possible to count on it at a critical time, and then Yu Jun took the lead, and the fire was quickly extinguished.
Xie Ruqing woke up and wanted to take a look, but Ruhuan stopped him, and didn't come back to report the loss to her until the fire was extinguished, "Girl, don't worry, it's all outside the body, and it will be burned." ”
She is understatement here, Xie Ruqing knows that it must not be so simple, she gestured and asked, "The wedding dress is still there?" ”
The wedding dress is the ancestor looking for the best embroidery girl in the capital to make it, the former child has just been sent, and some pillowcases, shoes and socks that she sewed by herself, although it is something outside the body, but it is to be used urgently, and it will be delayed if it is burned.
Ruhuan gritted his teeth and nodded, "Yes, it's a little burned, but it's okay girl, the old ancestor has already sent it to be repaired, and there will definitely be three days to come." ”
The dowry that has been repaired is always a little unsatisfactory, and I don't know who can't see her like this, so I must find a bad luck. Xie Ruqing is not a bodhisattva in the end, and it is inevitable that he will be angry and resentful, but he is just next to the face of his ancestors, and he doesn't want to worry about it at such a time.
It's just that, anyway, it's not really going to get married, whether it's bad luck or not.
