But he said that after the eldest prince heard what Tan Yin Yanmin said, he felt distressed for a while, and hated: "Okay, if the second sister really likes the second son, even if the official and our Gao family also want them to fulfill the marriage contract and marry the second sister." ”

Everyone didn't say anything, just waiting for Yanya's final reply.

After a few days, Tan Jun rushed to Jiujiang, Tan Jun told his wife and daughter to take care of themselves, not to make trouble, and promised to write to several wives and uncles, and set off with a cart full of things sent by the Gao family. Tan Yin's mother and daughter were teary-eyed, sad and parted, and they had to cry sadly.

Unconsciously, I have been in Hangzhou for a month, and the spring flowers are blooming, which is the best season of the year.

The Gao family has a lot of business, the pharmacy is also one of them, there are very few female doctors nowadays, Mrs. Tan's mother and daughter are also family students, so they treat some women in the city, although the two are not very skilled in medical skills, but they are also a little successful, plus amiable, kind attitude, some women's diseases do not want to be known to outsiders, and there are many patients.

The eldest prince and Yanmin took Mrs. Tan and Tan Yin to their dowry shop to check the accounts, and taught Tan Yin how to recognize and employ people, how to check whether they are real accounts and fake accounts, and taught Tan Yin how to send people to do temptations. Yan Ting is shrewd, Yan Min is capable, and Tan Yin has learned a lot and benefited a lot.

A few days later, a maidservant girl came to invite Mrs. Tan and them to Yanya's side. A few people went over and saw that Yanmin was already there, and Yanya beckoned a few people to sit down. Everyone saw that Yanya was ordinary and relieved.

"I worried my aunt and sisters some time ago, so I asked you to come over today to discuss something. I have made a family appointment with the Xu family since I was a child, and I have always regarded the second son of the Xu family as a beloved, so I waited for the door. ”

"In the past two years, I also know that the Xu family has repeatedly delayed the marriage, I only said that the second son of Xu is working hard and will marry only after becoming famous, who would have thought that there are so many things in it."

"They all hide it from me, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand it, but the paper can't hold the fire, how can I hide it, and in the end I have to show the stuffing, I'm grateful to my sisters for telling me earlier, I know you want to wake me up with a stick." Yanya said slowly.

"The eldest brother took pity on me, and originally wanted to withdraw from the marriage, but then said that if I wanted, I would let the Xu family marry me."

"I'm not the kind of person who is dead-skinned, if the Xu family really has no intention, what's the point of me marrying. It's just that I can't slow down for a while. ”

"During this time, I thought about it carefully, marriage should be harmonious and beautiful, this was reluctant at the beginning, how to live in the future. Even though his Xu family is now in a prominent position, I don't covet these things. The corners of Yanya's mouth barely pulled out a smile.

"But I'm not willing after all, I want to meet the second son of the Xu family, know what he thinks, listen to him say in person, I'm so dead, I came here today to ask you to help me think of a way." Yanya looked at everyone.

Mrs. Tan sighed, feeling sorry for this niece, seeing that although she was weak but strong and assertive.

"How did you see him?" asked Ayin.

"I'll go directly to him for disrespect, and besides, it is estimated that his family will not say anything sincere because of the marriage contract, doesn't he often stay in Biyan Pavilion, I want to go over there to inquire." Yanya said.

Everyone was shocked, it was immoral for a woman to visit the Qinglou, and she didn't expect Yanya to be so persistent.

"Second sister, even if you go to Biyan Pavilion, you may not be able to hear his true words!" Yanmin asked.

"It's no secret that men like to talk nonsense when they drink and socialize, and it's likely to be said. Besides, if you can't hear it, you can lead him to say it then. Tan Yin said.

Everyone saw that Yanya was thinking so thoughtfully, knowing that she had been thinking about it for a long time, and thinking that this heart disease still had to be treated, Yanya would not give up if she didn't go to the Yellow River, she would always meet, and when she heard those words with her own ears, she would die when she saw that Yunxian, Tan Yin sighed and said: "Second sister, it's okay if you think so, we will help you after all." ”

A few people sat down for a while, comforted a few words, and left.

Back in the house, the two discussed what to do, several people are women, unfamiliar with the situation in the city, boldly go to the Qinglou must not be the essentials, the family is not easy to explain, after thinking about it, decided to tell the eldest son, I think that the eldest prince loves his sister, will not be formal about those worldly prejudices, he does things very properly, and must arrange everything steadily.

That night, several people invited the eldest prince to come over and told Gao Yanting everything about the day's events and their thoughts.

The eldest prince thought for a while and said, "What you said is that this matter has to be decided by Ya'er in the end. I'll go and make arrangements. But there can't be many people in the Qinglou in the past, I can't go, I have a lot of entertainment, many people know me, and when I am on the opposite side of the Biyan Pavilion, I will shout as soon as there is something. Min'er is also known by many people......"

Seeing that the eldest prince showed embarrassment, Tan Yin immediately took the initiative to ask, "Big cousin, I'll accompany the second sister." ”

The eldest prince thought for a while and said: "Ah Yin has an idea, I think I will let Ah Yin accompany Ya'er, and I will let Ge Gen accompany the two of you, he has accompanied me for many years, and he has been in and out of this kind of occasion many times, and he will protect you thoroughly." ”

Seeing that the eldest prince was thoughtful and arranged, everyone informed Yanya the next day and asked her to wait patiently.

……

One day, the eldest prince told someone that the second son of the Xu family would go to Biyan Pavilion to gather with friends tonight, so that they could prepare early.

The eldest prince prepared men's clothes for Tan Yin and Yanya, asked Gegen to prepare the carriage early, and after a few words, he got on the carriage with them, and when he arrived near Biyan Pavilion, the eldest prince got out of the car, and asked Gegen to accompany Yanya Tan Yin and them to go over, and comforted the two of them that they were opposite Biyan Pavilion, and they could greet them immediately if they had something.

Tan Yin accompanied Yanya into the Biyan Pavilion in men's clothes. This Biyan Pavilion is close to the West Lake, carved beams and painted buildings, flying eaves go to the pavilion, and the plaque can also be seen to be written by a famous artist.

Originally, Tan Yin thought that this Qinglou would be like the description in the book, there was a mother whose powder was painted two layers thick, and the powder would fall down with every step, greeting guests with a sweet and greasy voice, and flirting with guests from time to time.

But it's not here, quiet and elegant, the little maids and maidservants who greet are all delicate and well-behaved, not like the Qinglou but like a literati gathering hall, and the sound of Qingyue's piano is heard in the ears from time to time.

Gegen asked people to arrange a room, ordered a few pots of wine, and told the little guy that he was still waiting for someone, and when the people arrived, he would call the girls to accompany him, and as soon as the little guy left, Gegen looked outside the door, and took the two girls, oh, no, the two sons went out.

Ge Gen had heard in advance that Yun Xian lived in the best house on the top floor of Biyan Pavilion, facing West Lake in the east and the street in the south. Both the north and east sides are cloisters, in which there are windows on the north side, and people enter from the south side, and the north side cannot be seen.

Ge Gen led the two sons around to the north side of Yunxian's room, poked the window paper with his fingers, Xu Ergongzi and the well-known princes and literati in the city were drinking and composing poems, and Yunxian poured wine and played the piano for them.

That Yunxian has a beautiful face and elegant temperament, not like a Qinglou woman, but like a lady, no wonder she is one of the best in the city.

Looking at Xu Linhai, the second son of the Xu family, he is talented and extraordinary, and he is worthy of the reputation of Hangzhou. Yan Ya saw that Xu Ergongzi's eyes not only darkened, but Tan Yin sighed in her heart when she saw this.

"Brother Xu is the best person to take this Beijing test, and he really wants to write a legend of two champions!" A man in blue said.

"Yes, my No. 1 talent in Suhu is naturally the leader in the country." Everyone else chimed in.

"Brother Meng, all the brothers have won awards, there is a sky outside the sky, there are people outside the world, there are many talents in the world, and Linhai is ashamed." Xu Ergongzi smiled, but he was not modest looking at his expression.

Tan Yin thought that this person was really confident, but this self-confidence did not make others hate, but also had a charm.

Tan Yin couldn't help but turn her head to look at Yan Ya, Yan Ya's face was normal, but there was nothing special.

At this moment, Yun Xian came over to pour wine for Xu Ergongzi, and everyone laughed again.

"Oh, Brother Xu, I envy everything about you, Yunxian doesn't need to mention it, but your wife who hasn't passed through the door can ......," a man in yellow said.

Tan Yin and Yanya were shocked when they heard someone mention her.

"Yes, Brother Xu, you are the future champion, you want to assist the saint, that Miss Gao is just the daughter of a businessman, it's a pity. I heard that the young lady has a mediocre appearance and a docile personality, I am afraid that she is as boring as a puppet, and the merchant's house is full of copper smell, and it is estimated that she can't read a single big character, but we pity that we Yunxian still have to serve the daughter of a merchant. A man in black shook his head.

Xu Linhai smiled and didn't answer, and Yun Xian also looked at him nervously.

"Brothers, don't say that, then the young lady won't be like you say." The boy in blue helped Yanya speak, and Yanya stared at Xu Linhai with a tense face to see what he said.

"Brothers, I don't know, you think that Miss Gao can really marry into the Xu family, but Brother Xu can't even climb the Miss Hangzhou Prefect."

"Brother Xu has been postponing his marriage for the past two years, just to make them retreat. The Gao family relied on the fact that they had funded the Xu family before, and they wanted to eat swan meat, and they didn't look at what the Gao family's status was, what the young lady looked like, and they didn't deserve to lift shoes for Brother Xu. A tall and thin man in brown said.

"That is, if their Gao family is interested, they should take the initiative to withdraw from the marriage. Their young lady is not even qualified to be a concubine. Another said.

Everyone suddenly realized, Xu Linhai smiled deeper, Yun Xian also put his heart at ease, with a moving smile on his face, I really saw pity, Xu Linhai brought her a glass of wine, Yun Xian drank it all happily, knowing that she would not serve the daughter of the merchant.

Tan Yin froze, took a deep breath, calmed down, turned her head, and saw that Yanya pursed her lips, gritted her teeth, her face was frighteningly white, and her fists were clenched, knowing that her heart must be turbulent.

Yanya glanced at Tan Yin, turned around and left, Tan Yin and Ge Gen hurriedly followed, and when they got out, they saw that the eldest prince was already sitting in the car, and when the eldest prince saw Yanya's expression, he knew that he must have heard some ugly words, and ordered the coachman to hurry up and go home.

……

Back at home, Yanya went straight back to her room and bolted the door, and everyone didn't dare to go in, so she had to let her.

Entering the room, Yanya threw herself on the bed, her face covered in the quilt, and her tears unconsciously flowed down the quilt, wetting the quilt.

Her mind was full of Xu Linhai's handsome face, extraordinary bearing, and elegant manners, but what she thought about more was his meaningful smile, the sarcastic words of those sons and literati, the toad, the puppet, the illiterate, and the beautiful and happy face of Yun Xian, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she couldn't stop crying.

She has a kind nature since she was a child, although she is deeply loved, she is never arrogant, and it is a shame to be said to be so unbearable today.

She originally thought that Xu Ergongzi didn't like herself, but she didn't expect him to look down on herself and the Gao family so much, she was not even worthy of lifting shoes for him, and she was not qualified to be a concubine.

Xu Linhai looks down on the Gao family and himself so much, if he still expects him to marry him, it will be really humiliating.

The young girl's mind was always very conflicted, on the one hand, she was still fascinated by Xu Linhai's demeanor, and on the other hand, she was annoyed by his ruthlessness.

Although Yanya has a gentle and gentle personality, she is assertive inside, she knows that the Xu family must want to regret marriage, even if she can marry the Xu family desperately as the eldest brother said, she will not have a good time in the future, and now she and Xu Linhai, whether it is a family or a literary talent, there is a big gap.

After a period of time, several masters of the Gao family went home one after another, and Tan Jun had also sent letters to the eldest uncle and second uncle before.

A month later, the most sensational thing in Hangzhou was that the Gao family sent a letter to the Xu family asking for the dissolution of the marriage contract, and the Xu family came to the door to explain, but the Gao family insisted on doing so, and finally the Xu family gave a lot of gifts to end the matter.

Everyone in the city said that Miss Gao seemed to be unsalted and unliterate, and she knew that she was not worthy of Xu Ergongzi, so she proposed to dissolve the marriage contract.

Mrs. Tan received a letter from Li Zheng, saying that he, Zhang Ziqing and others had settled in Jinling and were studying hard.
