Chapter 45: Marriage Proposal
Su Yuyan bought a lantern, put it in the river, and let it float slowly along the river, feeling a little emotional, even if it was to make a lamp, it was much freer than she was now.
Zhao Linxian saw that there was some sadness between her eyebrows, so he said, "Is it because I didn't go to your house today to spend your birthday with you?" ”
"No! Aren't you here to accompany me now? Su Yuyan didn't want to act like a resentful girl in front of Zhao Linxian.
Seeing that Su Yuyan was so casual, as if his full explanation seemed insignificant, the words that he had originally thought of were stuck in his throat at this time.
Anyway, I'm going to ask for marriage, it's the same whether I say it or not.
After the two put out the lanterns, they strolled around the night market casually, Su Yuyan was worried about Qiao's in her heart, so she was still a little in no mood, and Zhao Linxian was not a person who talked a lot, so she followed behind Su Yuyan.
There was a conversation between the two girls in my ears.
"Ah, you are wearing such a beautiful dress today, so that your lover can marry you soon!"
"What! People just want to dress up once in a while. ”
"Don't quibble, you don't usually dress up much, but if you suddenly dress up today, you must have a plan."
These words were originally an ordinary conversation between the two little sisters, but when they reached Su Yuyan's ears, she chuckled in her heart, yes! If you have a picture, it is difficult to be ......
The more Su Yuyan thought about it, the more panicked she became, and hurriedly walked in the direction of home.
Zhao Linxian was shocked: "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Let's go back quickly." Su Yuyan hurriedly pulled Zhao Linxian away.
Fortunately, Zhao Linxian rented a carriage to come, otherwise it would be very difficult for the two of them to run back to Su Mansion.
As soon as he returned to the courtyard, he saw Su Rongchang lying on the chair, and so did Qiao's.
Zhao Linxian was well-informed, and the first thing he thought of was poisoning, but he probed under Su Rongchang's snort with his hand and found that his breathing was normal, so he said to Su Yuchang: "They should just be drunk." ”
When Su Yuyan saw the jar of wine, she knew that she had made the right bet.
When she went out, when she saw her mother's abnormal behavior, she knew that things must not be simple, and she saw a jar of wine in her mother's house, so she wondered if her mother wanted to die with the second room, or with Su Rongchang, so she secretly changed the wine.
Sure enough, as soon as she entered the door, she saw her mother and Su Rongchang all drunk and lying there.
Su Yuyan notified the people in the second room to come and help Su Rongchang away, and then helped Qiao's to the house with Zhao Linxian.
Seeing Zhao Linxian and Su Yuyan, I was taken aback, isn't I dead yet? He asked hurriedly: "Where is Su Rongchang!" ”
"He was drunk, and I let the people in the second room get rid of him." Su Yuyan couldn't calm down in her heart, but she tried her best to restrain herself.
Qiao Shi suddenly laughed: "It's you who changed my wine, right, why did you save him, he is not worthy of being your father at all, over the years, he has treated you as a commodity, and after knowing that you have no use value, he will treat you coldly." Sister-in-law, you should let me take him away and give you a quiet life. ”
Su Yuyan's pupils shrank suddenly: "Mother, but you want to die with him, is it worth it?" Didn't you keep saying that you have to live well and watch Su Rongchang and Xu get retribution. ”
Qiao's tears kept flowing: "What can I do, now Su Rongchang doesn't give me a way to live, and I will drag him to die with me when I die." ”
"You are cowardly now, why do you have to use death to solve it." Su Yuyan was very excited, she and Qiao's depended on each other, how could she watch her hurt herself.
Qiao Shi just kept crying: "My sins! I must have committed a big sin in my last life, and I only met a brute like Su Rongchang in this life. ”
Su Yuyan let Qiao's cry out to vent, anyway, that peach had already been taken away by Mama Zhang with an excuse.
Zhao Linxian frowned, and said to Su Yuyan, "You go cook a bowl of hangover soup!" I'm here to comfort the eldest lady. ”
Su Yuyan felt that she needed to calm down, so she left.
After Qiao finished crying, Zhao Linxian handed her the handkerchief.
Qiao's sassafras dried his tears, trying to make himself not representable: "Linxian, let you see the joke." ”
Zhao Linxian shook his head: "I didn't look at the joke, just vent it." ”
Qiao Shi took a deep breath: "I don't value this life for a long time, if it weren't for having a concubine, I would have wanted to embark on this road a long time ago." Over the years, my concubine has suffered a lot with me, my concubine was very beautiful when she was very young, and many families want to get married, but the old man has already decided on the Gu family, and I refuse one by one. Who would have thought that the scenery of the concubine attracted the jealousy of the Xu family, when the concubine was eight years old, the Xu family made the concubine throw her off the cliff and pick up a life, but that face! I can't bear to look at it directly. All of this is caused by my incompetence! I can't even protect my own children. ”
"Let me protect it in the future!" Zhao Linxian said very sincerely and resolutely.
Qiao's eyes lit up: "Is what you said true?" Are you willing to protect her for the rest of your life? ”
Zhao Linxian said solemnly: "I will do my best to protect her, but you also have to live well, since this world is unfair, you have to rely on yourself for what you want, and you don't want to see your grandson!" If you commit suicide today, then every year today, it will be the most painful time for her, are you willing to hurt her like this? ”
Qiao Shi gritted his teeth: "You're right, I was reckless, I won't do this again in the future, but Linxian, I beg you, treat your concubine well, if you don't want her anymore, please don't torture her, give me back." ”
Zhao Linxian sighed, this is really a poor and great mother, he doesn't want to make any promises now, he will only treat Su Yuyan wholeheartedly, so he just nodded in front of Qiao's family.
Su Yuyan came in with the decanting soup, and saw that Qiao's mood had stabilized a lot, and she didn't know what Zhao Linxian told her.
But she didn't ask more, but handed the decanting soup to Qiao's.
After Qiao finished drinking the soup, he took Su Yuxian's hand, then asked Zhao Linxian to put his hand over, and then put Su Yuyan's hand on Zhao Linxian's hand, and said with relief: "Life in the world, whether there is wealth or not, in fact, is not the most important thing, but there is a person around you who knows cold and warm, and grows old together." My life is ruined, but I hope you two can know and love each other and go on happily. ”
Su Yuyan looked up at Zhao Linxian, he actually didn't object, could it be because he saw that Qiao's was too pitiful, so he couldn't bear to refuse Qiao's?
After serving Qiao's family and falling asleep, Su Yuyan and Zhao Linxian walked in the courtyard, Su Yuyan was silent for a long time and said, "Thank you, I know that my mother is unwell and did not stimulate her." ”
Zhao Linxian was puzzled and said, "How could I stimulate her!" ”
Su Yuyan sighed: "I know you don't want to marry me, you have helped me a lot, let me go alone on the next road!" ”
After saying these words, Su Yuyan's eyes were a little red, she was not qualified to let others like her, Qiao's suicide today gave her a very heavy stimulus, she didn't want to pester Zhao Linxian anymore, she didn't want Buqiao's back, she decided, what belonged to her and her mother, she wanted to snatch it back by herself.
Zhao Linxian looked at her with interest: "You want to regret it, you don't want to marry me, right?" Where are you going to go alone? ”
Su Yuyan was stunned for a moment: "I didn't say I didn't want to marry you, it was because you didn't want to marry me." I know you didn't say it explicitly, but I already knew it in my heart, and I thought about it, if you have a sweetheart, let's go find your sweetheart! ”
Zhao Linxian just looked into her eyes: "I have found my sweetheart." ”
Su Yuyan was surprised: "Congratulations!" You can grow old with her. ”
Zhao Linxian only thought that she looked very cute, and couldn't help but smile: "You will be happy in the future." ”
Su Yuyan only thought that this was just an ordinary comforting word.
Zhao Linxian rushed back to Dongzhuang Village overnight.
And Su Yuyan was sleepless all night.
Obviously, he should be generous, Zhao Linxian has already helped himself a lot, and now that he has found his sweetheart, he should be happy for him, why can't he be happy now!
I kept my eyes open until dawn.
Qiao's was drunk last night, and she got up a little late this morning, and as soon as the mother and daughter came out of the wash, they heard Mama Zhang's happy little steps coming: "Madam, Miss, great joy!" ”
Su Yuyan didn't have any waves in her heart and even wanted to laugh a little, what does Daxi have to do with her, Zhao Linxian will not come to propose, it is estimated that the Gu family will propose to the second room!
It's just that this Mama Zhang has grown up with Qiao's since she was a child, and she is happy in the second room, so how happy she is.
Qiao Shi asked excitedly: "Is it a proposal to come?" ”
Mama Zhang nodded: "Yes, yes, the master asked you and Miss to go to the front hall!" ”
Qiao's hurriedly asked Su Yuyan to clean up, but Su Yuyan couldn't lift her spirits, feeling that the Gu family had advanced to Su Yuyan in the second room, and what to clean up was not just ridiculed.
As a result, I walked to the front hall and looked, ouch, I'll go, what kind of Gu family is that, isn't this Zhao Linxian's father and mother and Luo's?
There were also silk and gift money on the table, as well as land deeds.
Seeing Qiao and Su Yuyan coming out, Luo introduced and said, "This is the eldest lady." ”
Zhao Linxian's mother, Yang, saw Qiao's and took her hand enthusiastically: "Mother-in-law, you are so good-looking, no wonder you can give birth to such a good child as Yu Yan, now in our village, we all know that Su Yuanwai's eldest daughter is going to marry into our family!" They all said that Su Yuanwai was a good person who didn't care about his family. ”
Su Rongchangjiu hasn't completely woken up yet, and he is really a little unable to find the north when he is praised like this: "I have always been enlightened, as long as the children are good, I don't have any requirements." ”
The Yang family was entrusted by Zhao Linxian to propose marriage today, and he must praise Su Yuanwai vigorously, and he also emphasized that everyone knows that Su Yuyan is the eldest lady born to the eldest lady, which is a piece of cake for her: "Willing to marry his wife and daughter to our croppers, can Su Yuanwai not be an enlightened person?" So we praise Su Yuanwai whenever we meet people. ”
