Chapter 356: Marriage Proposal
Ye Shisan's eyebrows were smiling, standing beside Gu Fanghua, watching her carefully depict the red plum. said with a smile: "It's rare that the second son doesn't care, and he is willing to invite General Zhong to come to the door to propose marriage." ”
"Forget it, it's good if the second brother likes it. In the future, Yan Qingyi married in the capital, and the Fang family would not be able to take advantage of it. ”
Gu Fanghua told Gu Shinian everything, but Gu Shinian felt that it was just a trivial matter. In the future, the authentic father-in-law and mother-in-law are all smart people, and they are afraid of an old woman who can't carry it clearly?
After the red plum was depicted, Gu Fanghua put down the pen. He took the handkerchief handed over by Danzhu, cleaned his hands, and stretched his waist again.
Ye Shisan wanted to go to the pen and wash the ink, but Mo Lan had already done it, so he had to retract his hand. Gu Fanghua didn't see his small movements, and beckoned him to sit down.
"Ye 13, I heard from my uncle yesterday that your envoy has done a very good job all the way, and he has personally opened his mouth to keep people, but you still refuse."
Ye Shisan pursed his lips and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Back to the county lord, if you agree to General Xiao, you won't be able to take a scientific examination if you enter the military camp." Besides, I want to make a difference in the court, not to be a fortune envoy for the rest of my life. ”
"Also, Ye Shisan, you are a person with the first auxiliary talent, so you don't have to be buried in the army. However, can you make it to the township test in this way? ”
Gu Fanghua suddenly thought, didn't Ye Shisan's trip miss the township test?
Ye Shisan was very surprised, but he didn't expect Gu Fanghua to still think about his future, and said busily: "Don't worry, the county lord, I have calculated, I will leave on the fifteenth day of the first month, and I can catch up with the spring festival." ”
"The fifteenth day of the first lunar month? Gone after the New Year? In fact, it doesn't matter if it doesn't last the New Year, it's better to start early, in case there is an accident along the way, and you have to wait for another year. Besides, it is very likely to open Enke this year, if you don't take the entrance exam, won't you miss a good opportunity in vain, and you have to wait for two more years? ”
Gu Fanghua ate the fruit and was thinking about Ye Thirteen, so she didn't see the surprise in Ye Thirteen's eyes.
"Don't worry, the county lord, I can catch up with the township test."
This is Ye Shisan's answer on his face, in fact, what he really wants to say in his heart is: County Lord, January 14 is your birthday, I want to celebrate your birthday before leaving.
Seeing that Ye Shisan was really persistent, Gu Fanghua did not force it.
"Okay, bring more people on the road, don't have any accidents, and prepare well after you go back, and strive to come back with a solution."
Ye Shisan smiled silently, and changed the topic: "The county lord is inquiring about the old lady?" ”
Gu Fanghua was reminded by Ye Thirteen, and then remembered it, and said with a smile: "Yes, I don't know what my grandfather was doing in a hurry to Jiangnan." ”
Ye Shisan was holding a few dried longans in his hands, and he was already sweating thinly.
Slowly stabilized his mind, regained his usual calm, and replied: "There is a big case in Jiangnan, the youngest son of the Confucian Zhu Qin family, who is involved in a fraud case. stole Mr. Zhu Qin's handwritten letter and asked the governor of Jiangnan for care. After the incident, Mr. Zhu Qin regretted that the evening was not guaranteed, and passed away with hatred, and only entrusted his little granddaughter to the old lady. ”
"I see, Ye Thirteen, you are so powerful. Brother Rong Ling only said last time that his grandfather's old friend died, and I didn't know yet, it turned out that the family was involved. What about the little granddaughter? ”
Gu Fanghua was not interested in the fraud case, only the girl.
"I don't know, it's about the same age as the county lord, maybe it's forced marriage or other reasons."
Ye Shisan didn't pay attention to these, so he naturally didn't know.
Gu Fanghua gently spit out a longan seed, and said curiously: "In this case, why didn't my grandfather consider the second brother, but agreed to the second brother marrying in Liaodong?" ”
"The old lady's thoughts, we can't guess. The second son has always been unconcerned about the love between men and women, and he can be tempted, and the old lady is only afraid that he is happy to see it. ”
Ye Shisan watched Gu Fanghua eat dried longan, and couldn't help but stuff one into his mouth.
A rich sweet fragrance spread directly from the mouth to the brain, and the sweetness made Ye Thirteen unforgettable for the rest of his life. Dried longan has also become his favorite fruit in this life.
After lunch, everyone chatted and baked things together, while waiting for Gu Shinian and them to come back.
Before more than half of the time, Gu Shinian, who was drunk, was helped back by Yan Rongling and them. Seeing the second brother's top-heavy appearance, Gu Fanghua couldn't help complaining, this person from the Bei'an County Mansion is too much, right?
Yan Shaoxun estimated that it was the first time to feel this kind of atmosphere, and he was full of interest.
"Mingzhu, don't you know, the old man went to propose his relatives in person, and my sixth brother and I pressed the formation, and they also pushed back and put on a fight. But it can be seen that just a few go through the motions, and I see that the mouth of the king of Bei'an County is almost behind his ears. ”
Gu Fanghua was also interested and asked, "Isn't there any other three media and six hires?" How? There are no geese or geese. ”
Yan Rongling looked at Gu Fanghua with a smile and explained: "Mingzhu, today is the old man who personally proposes marriage, not a subordinate, and there is no need for a wild goose." When we went, we had already given them a lot of face. The following go through the motions, only the official media needs to come forward. ”
"That's right! But the second brother doesn't have any dowry now, so what do you propose? ”
Yan Shaoxun pouted with a smile and said, "Mingzhu, what kind of heart do you have?" Second Brother Gu took the family heirloom jade pendant as a token, and the king of Bei'an County also gave Yu Jue in exchange. As for the dowry, are you still afraid that the Gu family can't afford it? ”
Gu Fanghua suddenly realized and said with a smile: "That's right! I must ask my grandfather to send a dowry gift to discuss the wedding date or something, maybe I can do a happy event this year. ”
Zhong Taojiao was also very excited, and said with a smile: "We can do it together, and then we will have dolls together and get married." ”
Yan Shaoxun hid his face and sighed: "Jiaojiao, you are too unreserved, Changxin is still here, you are worried about the baby." ”
Gu Fanghua also covered her lips and smiled, Yan Changxin looked doting, looked at Zhong Taojiao, who was a little shy, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's all up to you." ”
The crowd burst into laughter.
Zhong Zibin laughed too hard, pulling the wound on his back, grinning in pain, and still couldn't help laughing.
Gu Fanghua was a little distressed and said, "Brother Zhong, don't laugh, the wound is broken, I don't have a good medicine." Now that the second brother is settled, it's just you, and you're still alone. ”
Zhong Zibin was also a little envious: "Mingzhu, I can't help it, how many ladies can you introduce to me?" ”
"You know everything I know, and in my opinion, don't be picky. Let your aunt find you the right person casually, okay? ”
Gu Fanghua said half-jokingly, half-seriously, causing Zhong Zibin to laugh heroically.
"Mingzhu, you taught me that I would rather lack than abuse, and now I want to find a lady who will only know what she looks like when I get married, I will never be able to."
Yan Rongling also chimed in: "Three thousand weak water, only take one scoop to drink." ”
Yan Shaoxun hung his son on the chair and threw a peanut into his mouth. Smacked his lips and said, "I'm a weak water three thousand, as long as that scoop." ”
