"It will begin." The man replied with a smile.

"Shi Yi" Bai Yi thought for a while before reacting, "Isn't that only eight years old?" ”

"Exactly."

Bai Yi looked at Song Ne, "Engaged at the age of eight, isn't Xiao Ge too anxious?" Not to mention that Ling Gongzi is only eight years old, my sister is eleven years old this year, and we have never thought about her getting married. ”

Song Ne frowned slightly, and looked at the housekeeper beside him, "Liu, Liu Li"

Liu Li was also a little confused by Bai Yi's words, "Although eleven years old is not big, it is really not too young, Bai Xiaotai." In the past two years, there should have been a lot of matchmakers in your family who came to say goodbye, right? Even if we pass this year, we always have to take time to do the divination and auspicious days after that, and when we really welcome the family, Miss Bai will be thirteen or fourteen years old, if you can't choose an auspicious day, it is possible to drag it out until you are fifteen years old. ”

Bai Yi was about to blurt out the sentence "Fifteen years old is also very young" in his heart, but he immediately realized that saying this would only make people wonder if he was deliberately making things difficult.

Liu Li talked a lot to the Bai family's father and son, during which Bai Shijun didn't even look at his eyes, just stared at the table, neither nodded nor responded.

After a while, Song Ne coughed lightly, and Liu Li stopped talking and resumed his previous polite and polite smile.

"We came here suddenly, probably suddenly." Liu Li said softly, "Then please ask Imperial Doctor Bai to think about this matter, and we will come back in a few days." ”

Bai Yi looked up a little suspiciously, "Are you in such a hurry?" ”

Bai Shijun also snorted, "This is indeed a bit too urgent." ”

Liu Li and Song Ne glanced at each other, and after a while, Liu Li looked at Bai Shijun with a bit of temptation, "How long does Imperial Doctor Bai need to think about it?" ”

"Even if you ask now, my father may not be able to answer." Bai Yi answered on the side, "We also said before, our family has never considered Bai Ling's marriage, and besides, she is still in the palace, and I don't know when she will be able to."

"It doesn't matter," Liu Li interrupted with a smile, "The matter of marriage is originally the order of the parents, Bai Si Yao is really a wonderful person who can be met but not sought, whether our little son has the blessing of asking for marriage depends not only on the consideration of Imperial Doctor Bai's side, but also on whether the eight characters on both sides are suitable." It's actually very slow to push things up, and we're not in a hurry. And"

Liu Li slightly narrowed his eyes and looked at Bai Yi, "Isn't Doctor Bai a little too aggressive, Bai Siyao's marriage, it is still Doctor Bai who is in charge." ”

Several people had already walked to the door while talking, Bai Shijun was a little short of breath, and said in a low voice, "Okay, then old man Rong think about it, please bring these things back first." ”

Song Ne laughed, "Since it is a thing that is collected, where is there a reason to bring it back"

"No one has sent it like this." Bai Shijun's voice was very low, he looked away with some confidence, but he still said stubbornly, "There is no Nacai either, it is the man's family who sends it directly to the door, after all, let the matchmaker come first, and wait for the wishes of the two families to be drawn up, and then"

"Imperial Doctor Bai." Song Ne's expression became subtle, he interrupted Bai Shijun's words with a smile, and leaned slightly to him, "My Nana Cai of Song Song Mansion is sent like this"

"Xiao Ge Lao just refuses to bring back these gifts?" Bai Shijun asked again.

"Of course." Song Ne replied simply this time.

"Then I'll be blunt, Elder Xiaoge." Bai Shijun took a deep breath, "I don't agree to this family business." ”

There was a sudden silence.

"What did you say?"

"I don't agree to this family affair between the little girl and Ling Lang." Bai Shijun repeated it again, the words had already come out, and he simply let it go, "I don't want any of these Nacai, please take them all, don't block the alley, and then the neighbors should say that I am not." ”

Liu Li glanced at Bai Shijun deeply, "Bai Shijun, do you know what you're talking about?" ”

Bai Shijun's throat moved, he bowed deeply to Song Ne and Liu Li, and said in a low voice, "Bai Ling, this child has been used to following me in the countryside since she was a child, she doesn't know anything about what girls should learn, the Song family is a big family, how can she be worthy?" Now the children of the two families don't know what marriage is, but they are afraid that even if they get married at that time, they will not be worthy of virtue and will have disasters. ”

"I don't know who this Manchu Dynasty civil and military, who does Imperial Doctor Bai think Ling Yan can match better?" Liu Li's voice was a little cold, and a somewhat teasing smile appeared on his face, "The little marquis of the Dingbian Hou family, the young lord of the Anding Bo family, or the eldest son of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of War, can you get into your eyes?" ”

Bai Shijun was stunned there, he didn't understand what Liu Li was saying at all, and Bai Yi on the side was already frowning, "Even if my father doesn't want to marry Bai Ling to your family, you don't have to speak ill of my sister like this and slander my sister's innocence, right?" It's just that the coincidence in Donglin Temple a few days ago, the little marquis and a few of them happened to go up the mountain together, I was also there at the time, why didn't they see what they thought of my sister? ”

As soon as Bai Yi said this, Bai Shijun guessed a little bit of what Song Ne and Liu Li meant, he bowed to this person again, and said softly, "Little Pavilion Elder, don't get me wrong, people like us in the countryside have never thought of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, and my daughter is not worthy of Ling Lang, and she will never marry into any Hou Mansion or Shangshu's family in the future." Now I only hope that the concubine can recover as soon as possible, so I can take these two children to leave the capital, and my hometown still has a few acres of thin fields, although it is not enough to be rich and noble, it is barely enough to live. At that time, whether it is Bai Ling or Bai Yi, if you look at which one has a good eye, you will talk about it then. ”

"When is the time?" Liu Li laughed, "I'm afraid that at that time, the white pearl will become a fish-eye bubble." ”

Bai Yi glanced at Liu Li, "Then it's none of your business, our family has their own skills in eating, with me, Bai Ling will not marry for the rest of her life, and she will not starve to death, so don't bother your Song family." ”

At this point, there is no need to talk about it.

Song Ne only stood up at this time, laughed a few times, and glared at Liu Li with a feigned displeasure, stumbling and criticizing him for not being able to speak.

A few whips sounded, and the horses and carts crowded in the alleys finally began to move slowly.

In the carriage of "Imperial Doctor Baibai", Song Ne poked his head out again, "Don't take today's events to heart."

"Xiao Ge Lao rest assured." Bai Shijun replied lightly.

"But for today, you'd better talk to Bai Siyao." Song Ne smiled and said, "The best thing for her to know about this is this." ”。
