"In that case, forget it."

Xu Qiang has no hope for the girls of the Xu family at this time, among the more than 20 girls, there are not no people with beautiful appearances, but they are the best choice in terms of temperament and posture.

He was already thinking in his heart whether to wait until he went back and talk to Concubine Xu to see if he could find a trustworthy person to replace him elsewhere.

Because if the girl is not attractive, it is really useless to reluctantly bring it into the palace, and I am afraid that it will really become "entering the palace to accompany Concubine Xu".

Because the Xu family's home still needs a day and a night away from the imperial city, it is not early to see that it is not early, so Xu Qiang accepted the invitation of the old man Xu, and rested at the Xu family that night, planning to leave for back tomorrow.

Seeing such a result, Old Man Xu was not very comfortable in his heart, and he felt very sorry for Xu Qiang's trip for nothing.

And he was afraid that Concubine Xu would blame him, so he ordered the people below to arrange a good courtyard for Xu Qiang to live in the family, and also arranged two girls for him to wait, hoping that he could say a few more good words for them in front of Concubine Xu after he went back.

Because he was worried about rushing back to return to Concubine Xu, Xu Qiang got up early the next day, and after a simple wash, he walked out of the courtyard door to the main courtyard where Old Man Xu lived, and then set off to go back after saying goodbye to him, and the two girls who were sent to wait for him also followed him.

But when he passed by a courtyard, he heard a nice voice say, "Mother, don't worry, I know." ”

This voice didn't sound loud, crisp and delicate, like a yellow warbler out of the valley, which made Xu Qiang feel less depressed when he heard it.

I don't think I heard this yesterday? With this thought in his heart, he couldn't help but look into the courtyard.

Seeing this, Xu Qiang couldn't take a step.

He saw a charming and charming girl standing in the middle of the courtyard, carrying a basket and walking towards the gate of the courtyard.

"Who is this girl?"

Xu Qiang was glad that there was someone by his side, and hurriedly asked.

"Back to Lord Xu, her name is Xu Yulan." Behind Xu Qiang, a girl with a small face and a round face replied.

"Oh, was she the one who said yesterday that she was infected with the wind and cold and didn't come?"

"Yes, Lord Xu, it's her."

The little round-faced girl said again, Xu Qiang had a way in his heart after hearing this, and knew that he finally didn't have to go back empty-handed.

Under the guidance of the two girls, Xu Qiang hurried to the main courtyard, he wanted to tell Old Man Xu that he had found the person to take back.

Seeing Xu Qiang, Old Man Xu was about to invite him to have breakfast with a guilty face, but he saw Xu Qiang's face full of smiles.

Xu Qiang didn't wait for Old Man Xu to guess, so he said it himself, saying that when he came over just now, he saw a girl who was very suitable to enter the palace with him this time, and also said her name.

When Mrs. Xu heard this, didn't this girl come yesterday? So he called the housekeeper over and asked, "Didn't you say yesterday that she was infected with the wind cold?" Why is there nothing going on today? ”

"This, the little one doesn't know what's going on."

The housekeeper was so frightened that his legs trembled, he was also lazy yesterday, and heard that Xu Yulan's parents said that she was infected with the wind cold, and she didn't go in to see if it was true or not, so she came back directly to reply to Mrs. Xu.

"It's okay, it's okay, please go to the housekeeper again now, tell her about this matter, and let her prepare to enter Beijing with me."

Xu Qiang guessed in his heart that Xu Yulan's family probably already knew the reason for their trip, and they were reluctant to let their daughter enter the palace, so they lied to the housekeeper, so they said.

Whether she wants to or not, he will enter the palace when he sees it anyway.

"Go and tell them not to play tricks again, or I won't be able to get around them."

Old lady Xu saw that the housekeeper was still stunned and urged.

The butler hurriedly agreed and ran out.

When she arrived at Xu Yulan's house, the housekeeper told Xu Yulan's parents, brother and herself.

Xu Yulan's parents immediately cried, saying that their daughter had already promised someone else, and asked the housekeeper if she could go with someone else.

The housekeeper looked at them with a sad face, and he also felt very unbearable, but remembering what Xu Qiang and Old Lady Xu said just now, he quickly shook his head and said that he couldn't change it.

Xu Yulan's brother didn't say a word, just stood aside and slammed his fist at the wall, as if the hand was not his.

Xu Yulan also looked at the housekeeper with teary eyes, but she didn't ask him, and in the end, she turned back to the housekeeper and said, "I know, please take me with the housekeeper." ”

When the housekeeper heard that this girl was so sensible, he agreed to go with him, so he nodded hurriedly and walked outside.

"Daughter, you can't go, you can't get out if you go."

When Xu Yulan's mother heard this, she hurriedly pounced on her daughter and said while crying.

"It's okay, mother, I'll go and beg that adult, maybe he's willing to go to another person?"

Xu Yulan was quite calm, and said: "In case that adult refuses to agree to his daughter, then there is still a brother at home." ”

Then she walked up to her brother again: "Brother, if I leave, you have to marry a virtuous sister-in-law, be filial to your father and mother, and tell him, just say that we have no chance in this life, and if I have the opportunity in the next life, I will pay him back everything I owe him." ”

After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked outside decisively, and the housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed.

"Magnolia, ......"

Immediately there was a wailing sound in the room, Xu Yulan wiped the tears on her face and walked faster.

"Miss Magnolia is here." As soon as the housekeeper entered the main courtyard room, he hurriedly shouted, and everyone in the room was attracted by his loud voice.

Xu Yulan entered the house and looked at the people in the room without fear, and soon she guessed that the only strange man in front of her was that Xu Qiang, so she walked up to him and knelt down:

"Lord Xu, the little girl has no talent, no virtue and no appearance, and she already has a marriage contract, she knows that she is not qualified to accompany Concubine Xu, and I hope that Lord Xu will learn and change to a girl with both ability and integrity."

Xu Qiang raised his head, and for a moment he was unexpectedly disappointed by the slightly responsible look in her eyes, but fortunately he woke up quickly, and he was secretly annoyed in his heart and almost fell in love with this girl.

So he coughed dryly, looked at Xu Yulan and said: "Miss Yulan is too modest, at present, Concubine Xu and the third prince are in the palace, and they don't even talk to someone to discuss everything, because they think that we are all members of the Xu family, and we will definitely help our own family, so Niangniang will tell me to come to Xu's house to help her find a girl to bring into the palace to talk to her and relieve boredom, and the girl is just the most suitable candidate, except for the girl, no one can do it." ”

The meaning of this is that it is you who I want to take away, and it is impossible to change someone else.
