"It was my grandmother who mentioned it recently, saying that since the elders of the two families have made up their minds verbally, it is better to invite the Qiao family to come to the door as soon as possible, and it will also be a matter of the elders." Ye Lanqiao said as he raised his eyes to observe Qiao Yufei's expression.

Sure enough, Qiao Yufei's whole person became even more nervous.

"Yes...... Sister Lan was right. Qiao Yufei cleared his throat, he was no longer in the mood to taste the good tea in front of him, put his hands on his thighs, and after a long time, Qiao Yufei hesitated to speak:

"Actually, I was thinking that since each other is still young, it's better to put this kind of thing on hold."

"What Mr. Qiao meant, I understand." Ye Lanqiao hooked the corners of his mouth and said with a wry smile.

The air suddenly fell into silence, and it seemed that he could hear the sound of the surrounding osmanthus petals falling, Qiao Yufei sat opposite Ye Lanqiao on pins and needles, and kept peeking at Ye Lanqiao.

And Ye Lanqiao has been watching sideways to enjoy the scenery of the pavilion, and she didn't fail to catch Qiao Yufei's eyes, and in her heart, she was more anxious than Qiao Yufei.

The atmosphere has been set off to this point, why hasn't Qiao Yufei opened his mouth to explain things clearly.

Ye Lanqiao rolled his eyes in his heart, could it be that he had to force himself to say such a thing as quitting his family.

"Sister Lan, if there is nothing to do, I will leave first." A layer of fine sweat appeared on Qiao Yufei's forehead, he really couldn't stand this feeling, and got up to leave.

Don't mind! Ye Lanqiao roared in his heart again, it is estimated that it will be difficult for the two of them to say goodbye once they leave, and the matter of retiring from relatives cannot be delayed any longer.

"Young Master Qiao, please stay." Ye Lanqiao took a deep breath, and the person also stood up from the stone bench, forget it, just say it yourself!

"The fourth sister has not yet been married, if Gongzi Qiao proposes to the Ye family at this time, wouldn't it be a good thing?"

"Sister Lan, ...... you" After hearing Ye Lanqiao say this, Qiao Yufei had already walked under the pavilion, he turned his head violently and looked at Ye Lanqiao incredulously.

Ye Lanqiao walked down the pavilion and stood in front of Qiao Yufei: "I want to come to Qiao Gongzi and want to settle things as soon as possible, doesn't he?"

"Girl!" Huixiang didn't expect Ye Lanqiao to say such a thing, she didn't care about the master and servant at this time, and rushed to Ye Lanqiao and Qiao Yufei at once:

"Girl, are you crazy? How can you let Qiao Gongzi marry four girls? You two are ......."

"Huixiang, you step aside." Ye Lanqiao sighed in his heart and opened his mouth to stop Huixiang.

"Who Qiao Gongzi wants to marry, he only says it himself, and he can't allow others to guide him." Ye Lanqiao said this lightly, turned his head to face Qiao Yufei again, and pulled the corners of his mouth: "Young Master Qiao, some things should be explained as soon as possible, so that no one will be delayed."

"Sister Lan, it's me who can't live with you, and I can't live with Old Madam Ye." Qiao Yufei looked at the elegant and indifferent woman standing in front of him, and slowly closed her mouth slightly open because of surprise, and it took a long time before she spit out such a sentence.

"Brother Qiao doesn't have to blame himself, people go to high places, in this current situation, it is indeed the fourth sister who is more suitable for you." The last hope in Ye Lanqiao's eyes was completely shattered, in the final analysis, Qiao Yufei was also for his family, and he had not done anything hurtful, and Ye Lanqiao did not put too much affection on him, so even if the marriage contract between the two disappeared, Ye Lanqiao would not tear his face with him.

Qiao Yufei's hand hidden in his sleeve suddenly clenched, it turned out that Ye Lanqiao knew all this in his heart.

Everyone in Kyoto City knows that the title of the Guogong Mansion was specially rewarded by the founding emperor, but now, the glory of the ancestors has passed, and the current Guogong Mansion has been rinsed for nearly a hundred years, and it is the fourth generation of Qiao Yufei's generation.

Three generations of lords, in the fourth generation, the title was naturally withdrawn by the imperial court, although Qiao Yufei was the only son of the Guogong Mansion, but he could not continue to attack the lord.

Although there will be a shadow seal, but how can Qiao Yufei, who has a high heart, accept this kind of gap, although the Guogong Mansion has a strong family background, but in this Kyoto City, there is no shortage of people with strong family backgrounds. All official positions are high, and a strong family background is just the icing on the cake, if the official position is average, the strong family background is an excuse to be pointed out.

Qiao Yufei had already figured out in his heart that the road of the imperial examination was too difficult, he hadn't tried it a few years ago, but the pressure around him and the hardships of the road made him have to give up this path. Only by getting close to the powerful can he get a good shade in the future.

Ye Lanqiao was originally the best choice, she was the daughter of the General's Mansion and the pearl of General Ye's palm, if she married her, Qiao Yufei would have a bright future. But now that General Ye Lao died of illness, Mrs. Ye is not in good health, and she can't be the master at all, and the most important thing is that Ye Lin wants to straighten out her aunt has been revealed, and in the future, the head of the General's Mansion will be Wang Xiaoniang, and her biological daughter Ye Ruqiao will also be the honorable daughter of the General's Mansion. Compared with the helpless Ye Lanqiao, Ye Ruqiao is the most suitable candidate.

"Sister Lan, since you understand, then it's not good for me to hide it anymore. Master Ye has already handed over a post to the marriage department, and he wants to help Aunt Wang as the main room. Meantime...... At the same time, the Qiao family also gave the four girls a proposal for marriage. Qiao Yufei's voice became weaker and weaker, until he finally disappeared.

Ye Lanqiao's eyes were cold, if he didn't explain things now, how long would this Qiao Yufei plan to hide from himself?

"Young Master Qiao, how can you do this?" Huixiang on the side was also about to explode, she thought that Qiao Yufei was just intimate with Ye Ruqiao, but she didn't expect it to have reached this point!

"Old Mrs. Qiao has always treated our girl as her granddaughter-in-law, you are good, you have quietly replaced it with a fourth girl, aren't you sincerely bullying our girl?" Huixiang stood in front of Qiao Yufei and asked loudly, this time Ye Lanqiao didn't open her mouth to stop it, she felt that Huixiang scolded well.

"My grandmother has also been weak in the past few months, and my father thought that my grandmother was too old to stand the cold winter in the north, so he sent someone to send her to the south to recuperate. My father and I discussed everything at home. ”

Qiao Yufei is a pampered boy since he was a child, when has he ever encountered this kind of situation where a slave yells in front of him, he was still a little ashamed at this time, but he changed to a slightly angry expression at this time, and said coldly.

At the end, Qiao Yufei also added: "Sister Lan, your maids are really too rude, please ask Sister Lan to be more disciplined."

Ye Lanqiao snorted coldly and pulled Huixiang behind him: "Gongzi Qiao doesn't know, I like Huixiang's temperament."

Qiao Yufei was stunned for a moment, and then the boredom on his face became heavier, he straightened his chest, pinned his hands behind his back, and asked rhetorically: "What does Sister Lan mean by this, does she agree with what this maid said?"

"If you agree or disagree, it will have no effect on Qiao Gongzi." Ye Lanqiao didn't want to say a word of nonsense to Qiao Yufei now, she turned around and prepared to leave: "Since Gongzi Qiao still has something to do, then go quickly, don't delay the hour."

"Sister Lan." Qiao Yufei saw that Ye Lanqiao was leaving, and reached out and grabbed Ye Lanqiao's wrist.

Ye Lanqiao frowned, and pulled back her wrist vigorously, she glared at Qiao Yufei unceremoniously: "Young Master Qiao, since the two of us have nothing to do with each other, just call me the fifth girl in the future, it's not good to let the fourth sister hear it."

Qiao Yufei only felt that he had been slapped hard, he felt that Ye Lanqiao was deliberately mocking himself, so he no longer hid it: "Fifth girl, don't worry, Ru'er is well-behaved and smooth, and she won't worry about this kind of thing, but you, fifth girl, speak too sharply, if you change this temperament in the future, the fifth girl will still have a good future."

Ye Lanqiao almost didn't spray a mouthful of old blood on Qiao Yufei's face, can this still be endured?

I can't bear it!

"What Qiao Gongzi said is, but this speech is too sharp compared to seeing the wind and making the rudder, I think the former is more clear-conscience."

Ye Lanqiao finally understood what Mother Shen meant by what she said just now, and she still thought too well of Qiao Yufei.

If it was for the future of the family, Ye Lanqiao would not be able to say anything, but Qiao Yu was not good, doing things like seeing the wind and steering the rudder, but he still wanted to push the reason on others, Ye Lanqiao opened his eyes today.

Qiao Yufei was blocked by Ye Lanqiao's words, he snorted coldly, flicked his long sleeves, and turned around and left the osmanthus forest.

"Girl, what are we going to do now? The Qiao family is not counting on it, and the master has helped Wang Xiaoniang right, what will the girl's future do in the future? Seeing Qiao Yufei leaving, Huixiang couldn't help but step forward and ask.

Ye Lanqiao sighed: "Don't get in the way, there will be a way."

As he spoke, Ye Lanqiao's eyes turned and he saw a figure coldly.

"Who's there!" Ye Lanqiao let out a loud shout and walked with Huixiang to the depths of the osmanthus.

"It's down." Chu Feiye originally planned to come out of the depths of the osmanthus flower, but when he saw that Ye Lanqiao was startled, he hurriedly opened his mouth and answered.

"Is that you?" Ye Lanqiao almost didn't bite his tongue, how could this person be in this place.

"When were you here?" Ye Lanqiao thought about it and asked, what he said to Qiao Yufei just now, this guy won't hear it, right?

"It's been there since the fifth girl was harvesting osmanthus." Chu Feiye replied honestly, completely ignoring Ye Lanqiao's expression of wanting to eat people.

"Then what I said just now, did the second son hear it?" Ye Lanqiao resisted the urge to go up and scratch Hua Chu Feiye's face, and asked through gritted teeth.

Chu Feiye's eyes moved, and he coughed lightly: "Hmm."

Ye Lanqiao: "......" is really not covered up at all.

"You are so decent, how can you eavesdrop on others?" Ye Lanqiao felt that her braincase was about to explode, she was not embarrassed when she had a showdown with Qiao Yufei just now, but now she just wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into or take off Chu Feiye's head and wash it.

"I'm sorry." Chu Feiye clenched his fists and spoke sincerely.
