208: The Raven Arrives First
Cheng Qing heard the bird cry early in the morning.
Liu said it was a magpie.
Cheng Qing didn't dare to question it, the magpie is the magpie.
Today, the Dong family is going to come to the door to propose, even if Cheng Qing still has reservations about Dong Jinqiu, he will not stubbornly pick bones from eggs.
Dong Jinqiu looks pretty good now, and Cheng Qing is not squeezed by the door in his head, and he really wants to destroy his sister's happiness.
It's hard to say whether the surname Dong will be attentive in the future, Mrs. Dong really gives Dong Jinqiu extra points, and it is rare to have a cheerful temperament, even Cheng Qing likes to get along with such a person.
In this era, the husband of a young couple will not stay in the back house all day after getting married, and the wife seems to spend more time with her mother-in-law.
If the mother-in-law is bitter and difficult to get along with, then this married life is really painful!
The Cheng family was ready to wait for the Dong family to come to the door, and the Li family, as a matchmaker, also came to Yangliu Lane early to wait, and as soon as the time arrived, the door of the Cheng family was knocked on.
Cheng Qing was surprised, it was nine o'clock in the morning, Xuandu was so far away from Nanyi, and the Dong family came quite early.
Cheng Qing couldn't help muttering before opening the door: "Dong Magpie got up so early." ”
When people open the door, they see that it is not the hearty Mrs. Dong, nor the talented Dong who is unique in poetry and painting, but the rotten egg of the Qi family who has not been seen since he retired from his family.
It's not Dong Magpie, it's clearly Qi Crow!
Qi Yansong was wearing a new Xiucai blue shirt, tied a few thorny rattans on his back, and led people to carry a few gift boxes tied with red silk cloth, and a wild goose was tied on it.
Whether it was a goose or a duck Cheng Qing didn't see it clearly, anyway, it looked quite fat.
Seeing Cheng Qing, Qi Yansong was overjoyed:
"I have been saying goodbye to my cousin for a long time, I really want to be foolish! I heard that Cousin Qing was in high school Xie Yuan, and Brother Yu had to come to congratulate Cousin Qing in person......"
Cheng Qing waved his hand, "Stop, stop, our two families have long broken off their relationship, one by one, cousin Qing, I feel uncomfortable when I call it, what are you doing here, the Cheng family doesn't welcome you, hurry up!" ”
Qi Yan Songji was not angry.
At that time, Cheng Qing asked him to drink, didn't he also call his cousin very happy?
Although it was insidious to deceive him into trust, he really called him a cousin in the end.
Now as soon as he passed the exam, he turned his face and didn't recognize anyone.
If you want to follow Qi Yansong's previous temper, he would have brushed his sleeves away a long time ago.
However, thinking of Cheng Qing's hot identity of Xie Yuan, Qi Yansong endured it again.
Before coming to Cheng's house, he had made a long psychological preparation, knowing that he would be ridiculed when he came to the door, as long as he endured this wave of ridicule, he would be able to make his wish come true. Think about the ancient famous general Han Xin, who could even bear the humiliation of his crotch, but he was scolded by the Cheng family for a few words, why can't he bear it?
The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds.
Right now, it's just suffering his mind!
Qi Yansong ignored Cheng Qing's stinky face, took the rattan from behind his back and offered it with both hands, and knelt on one knee again:
"Flesh and blood dearest, how can I say that I can break it, the foolish brother knows that he is too wrong, he has betrayed the trust of Cousin Qing, and he has also failed to live up to Cousin Hui's expectations, since Cousin Hui and I have withdrawn from marriage, I have been reflecting on the mistakes I have made all the time, and I want to come to the door to confess hundreds of times, and I think that I don't even have a fame, how can I be qualified to give Cousin Hui happiness. In this day and night of repentance and guilt, there is only the head hanging beam, the cone and the thorn strand study hard, but unfortunately the talent is limited, until this year I was admitted to the Xiucai fame, and now I have the courage to come to the door to take the guilt, let my cousin beat me and scold me, I will never fight back, I only hope that my cousin is angry, can give me another chance! ”
What is the chance again?
Of course, he asked to marry Cheng Hui.
Qi Yansong even brought the wild goose, and carried the salute, oh, there is also a short and fat matchmaker wearing red ribbon flowers, Cheng Qing almost didn't see it.
Cheng Qing was amused by Qi Yansong.
Bear the guilt and ask for a new marriage?
Qi Yansong is reading behind closed doors, this is studying the drama book behind closed doors.
Cheng Qing hadn't seen that this product was a performative personality before.
Qi Yansong raised the thorny rattan high, and before Cheng Qing could speak, he himself moved himself to tears.
Cheng Qing asked him coldly:
"You've been memorizing this for a long time, haven't you?"
Qi Yansong subconsciously wanted to nod, "It's okay, it's okay...... Cousin Qing, what I just said is from the bottom of my heart! ”
almost admitted to reciting the lines, and retracted it halfway through the nod of his head, so he almost didn't flash Qi Yan's waist.
Seeing that Cheng Qing didn't accept the rattan, Qi Yansong gave him another look at the matchmaker he invited.
The short and fat matchmaker squeezed forward, looking at Cheng Qing's eyes as if she was looking at a piece of fine pork belly, it is not a good skill to be a matchmaker for Qi Yansong, if she can guarantee a matchmaker for Xinke Xie Yuan by the way, it will be really a big business.
However, Xinke Xie Yuan's vision is a bit high, it is said that at Nanyi's Mid-Autumn Festival last year, Ji Laoshang wanted to marry his granddaughter to Cheng Xie Yuan on the spot, Cheng Xie Yuan was still a show talent at that time, and he didn't agree!
The short and fat matchmaker sucked her saliva and looked flattering:
"It's a gift to Duke Xie Yuan, the little woman is entrusted by Young Master Qi to hire the eldest lady of the Cheng family as his wife for Young Master Qi. The little woman has never seen such a sincere suitor as Young Master Qi, he is not only willing to give a generous dowry to express his heart, if he can marry Miss Cheng as his wife, Young Master Qi promises to be wholeheartedly to Miss Cheng, never half-hearted after marriage, never look for flowers and ask willows, Miss Cheng told him to go to the dog, he will never catch chickens, Miss Cheng told him to go to the east, he did not look to the west...... Xie Yuangong is above, please listen to the little woman's words, people are not romantic, the little problems of Young Master Qi in the past have been changed, as the saying goes, the prodigal son does not change his money, Xie Yuangong will give Young Master Qi another chance, cousins and sisters, it is better to be close to each other than to marry Miss Cheng to another family! ”
The mouth of a matchmaker can not only deceive people, but also deceive ghosts.
Rotten eggs and crows have come to their mouths, and they are all rare young talents.
What's more, this Qi Yansong is indeed good-looking.
The matchmaker crossed her fingers and counted the gift sent by Qi Yansong, which was worth at least two thousand taels of silver, this is still a small decision, if the Cheng family agrees to marry, when the big gift is over, the Qi family will give another tens of thousands of dowries!
Listen, what a rare good marriage.
The Qi family has a field and a house.
Qi Yansong is talented and good-looking, and he is already famous in his early twenties.
Compared with Cheng Qing, it is a little worse, but the matchmaker flattered him, the sixteen-year-old Xie Yuangong is afraid that he is not the Wenqu star in the sky, how can others compare with Cheng Qing.
Cheng Qing began to want to throw Qi Yansong away directly, but Qi Yansong, the matchmaker, invited him well, just like listening to cross talk, Cheng Qing couldn't help but listen to it for a while.
The neighbors of Yangliu Lane couldn't hold back at first, and choked the matchmaker with a lotus tongue:
"Second Young Master Qi is such a good husband, who dares to ask for it? Seeing that Cheng Jieyuan's family was down, he was about to quit his family, and now he is thriving, and he licked his face to ask for marriage again, and we have not forgotten the past! ”
So how could Cheng Jieyuan forget?
The neighbors laughed, and they all thought that Qi Yansong holding a rattan was very funny!
