Chapter 81: A Sudden Proposal
Xie Qingyu looked at the inner hall again, and found that there were already a lot of people in it at the moment, even the grounded Xie Youruo was also among them, looking at her arrival, he seemed to be very proud, and there was a little more schadenfreude in his eyes.
Xie Qingyu slowly walked in ahead of the back, and gave Mrs. Xie Yingying a salute, only then did she notice that there was a strange woman sitting on the main seat on the right side today, Xie Qingyu had never seen her, and she didn't know who she was.
"Rumor to meet grandmother."
"This girl is clever and flexible, Mrs. Xue, what do you think?" The old lady looked at Xie Qingyu's salute as if she was satisfied, and lowered her head to ask about the strange woman.
Xie Qingyu only knew at this time that the woman was Mrs. Xue, but how could the old lady be so polite to her when she was so strong on weekdays, what was the reason for this, Xie Qingyu was still confused, and Mrs. Xue also began to look at Xie Qingyu.
"Okay, it's also a good seedling to look at the face, and the etiquette is quite standardized, but this body is too small, and I don't know if it's good or not, but that's it, my son can see it and follow his wishes." Mrs. Xue said while looking at Xie Qingyu.
Xie Qingyu listened to Mrs. Xue's words, and then he understood, is it good to have children? Mrs. Xie wanted to sell her, and what did she say that her son had taken a fancy to her, what did it matter to her, she was a modern person and wanted her to accept an arranged marriage? It's really ridiculous, my body is only fifteen years old now, and I am still a minor in modern times!
"Mrs. Xue, do you know, my daughter just got the top spot in the above test a few days ago, and she tied for first place with Youran." Ruan Mingyu also glanced at Xie Qingyu coldly at this time, it is really your great luck to be able to climb this family business now.
"I wonder what grandmother and mother mean by that?" After Xie Qingyu figured it out at this moment, he asked about Old Madam Xie, is it for inviting herself today? She thought that if she stood out in the literary exam, their mother and daughter's life would be better.
Unexpectedly, she didn't expect this good day to end too quickly, which caught her off guard, even if she had already won the title of the leader in the literary exam, but she was still powerless to avoid such a scene.
"Light rumor girl, you are blessed, that day at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, your song I wish people would last a long time, but the youngest son of the Xue family in Nan'an City was fascinated, and I want to include you as a side room, and today I also sent his mother to come over to tell you kiss." Old Madam Xie was very happy when she said this, it seemed that this family affair was already an excellent errand for Xie Qingyu.
"Yes, thank you for the rumor, my son has taken a fancy to you, it is a blessing that you have cultivated in your previous life, I will come today to make this marriage contract with my grandmother, and the sedan chair will come in the near future and marry you." After listening to Xie Qingyu's words, Mrs. Xue knew that she was in a hurry today, and she thought that Old Madam Xie hadn't talked about this matter with Xie Qingyu, so she directly said the intention of this time.
When Xie Qingyu listened to the old lady's words, he kept thinking about the origin of the Xue family in Nan'an City, how did he make the old lady make up her mind to marry herself, and she must have made some promise to the Xie family.
"Grandmother, now that I have participated in the primary election and obtained the royal brand, wouldn't it affect the credibility of our Xie family if I marry rashly now? And the light rumor won the first place in the literary test, and the nine talents in the future are very likely to pass the test, if the light rumor has the opportunity to go to the capital, then our Jiangning Xie family is not expected to grow? ”
Xie Qingyu knew that the current justification was her only chance, and she knew that Old Madam Xie had always wanted her granddaughters to go to the capital, so that the daughter of the Xie family could climb to the power of the capital, so that the Xie family in Jiangning could follow her.
All she could do was let Old Madam Xie know that she was of great use now, and she couldn't be treated as a pawn that could be discarded at any time.
I don't know about the Xue family's son, Xie Qingru, but that day in Yi'anju seemed to have heard someone talk about the son of the Nan'an Xue family, who has been a cripple since he was a child, and has an ugly face, and is also very good women, but most of the women who passed through his hands are missing, no one knows where they went, and the rumors in the rivers and lakes are that they ran away, but the insiders all said that they were tortured to death by the son!
Old Madam Xie listened to Xie Qingyu's words, as if she also thought of something, and began to hesitate, what Xie Qingyu said was indeed not wrong, this girl just went to the school for a few days to tie with Youran, if there is more time, I am afraid that the future is limitless.
It's just that Old Madam Xie glanced at Mrs. Xue in great embarrassment.
"Light rumor, this woman's life is not the fate of a marriage in the end, you can't just because you have the name of the leader of the literary examination to set your sights high, and now your literary examination has just passed, it is better to be a female official in the future, such a good opportunity will not be lost." Ruan Mingyu saw that Old Madam Xie was now a little shaken, no! She couldn't let that happen.
As soon as the words turned to point the finger at Xie Qingyu, now that she is the leader of the Wen Test, she will not look down on the Xue family, and Mrs. Xue will be the first to jump out to crusade, even if Xie Qingyu really marries into the Xue family in the future, she will not be able to pass this hurdle today, and the Wen Yu has won the first place, she must be to clear all obstacles for Youran!
At this time, with Ruan Mingyu's guidance, Mrs. Xue immediately spoke.
"Old Madam Xie, you also know that not everyone can be admitted to this female official, and besides, I have a daughter who is now a side concubine in the Yongning Palace, if you don't agree this time, then I will definitely ask her to talk about it." Mrs. Xue just listened to the words of Xie Qingyu, and suddenly felt harsh, if she didn't want to marry her son, she could say it bluntly, she had to be pressed by the royal family, even so, then she would see who could overpower whom.
It's just that he is just the leader of the literary exam, and he still dares to look down on their Xue family, even if he is admitted to the female official in the future! She wanted to see if your Xie family could get through the Yongning Palace, and when she thought of this, she raised a smug smile and looked at Xie Qingyu, but now she wants to see if your clever mouth is here, how to get by.
At this time, Mrs. Xie suddenly realized, and then she understood, Xie Qingyu said that the matter of the female official examination has not been skimmed yet, if she loses the opportunity of the Nan'an Xue family this time, I don't know how to regret it.
Xie Tianyang has wanted to expand his business to Nan'an many times, but the Nan'an Xue family is a huge obstacle, if he marries a Xie Qingyu, he can still open up the way of the Nan'an Xue family, this is a business that is absolutely not a loss.
"If that's the case, then exchange the birthdays of the two children." As he spoke, he hurriedly took out the eight characters of Xie Qingyu, and compared it with the Xue family's son to see if it was suitable.
"Mrs. Xie is really a cheerful person, and I have prepared the marriage contract, so I bother Mrs. Xie to press a handprint." Mrs. Xue saw that Mrs. Xie had already taken out the red Geng sticker, so she was about to change it.
"Grandmother, I am afraid that I can't afford the blessings of the Xue family because of my humble status." Xie Qingyu looked at this scene coldly, and said lightly, she knew that no matter what she said, she would not be able to change Mrs. Xie's mind, and she could only make the final dying struggle.
"What did you say?" Old Madam Xie didn't seem to hear what Xie Qingyu said clearly, squinted her eyes with a hint of warning, and asked.
"Light rumor, this Xue family's son is a good young man, you won't suffer if you go to the designation." Originally, Ruan Mingyu was there for a while watching the excitement at the moment, and when he saw that the old lady's face was becoming more and more pale, he hurriedly persuaded him.
"That's right, sister, the son of the Xue family is also a well-known person, presumably it must be very happy for my sister to marry in the past." Xie Youruo pretended to be harmless, and also spoke out to persuade Xie Qingru.
Xie Youran sat on the side, but didn't say a word, just tasted his own tea.
"Since this Xue Gongzi is so good, why don't you let your daughter marry him? If you are happy, how about you marry your sister? Xie Qingyu listened to the words of the two mothers, and they were a little disgusted at the moment, so they immediately went back.
"I don't know what to do!" Ruan Mingyu trembled at Xie Qingyu's words.
Xie Youruo looked at Xie Qingyu's smiling face, and for some reason he was a little scared at the moment, so he stopped making a sound.
"Grandmother, I can't agree to this family affair." Xie Qingyu saw that Geng Ti was about to be replaced, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
"Xie Qingyu, let me tell you, whether you agree to this family affair or not, you are married, and even if you die, you will be tied to our Xue family's mansion." Mrs. Xue still doesn't agree when she sees Xie Qingru, she is really stubborn, she looks down on their Xue family, hum, wait for you to pass the door, see how I clean you up!
"Rumor that you will go back to get married in peace these days." Old Madam Xie also just took over the Xue family's son-in-law at this moment, and waved her hand towards the little girl in the hall.
As soon as he finished speaking, several tall and big men came forward.
He even took out the rope, as if it had been prepared a long time ago.
Xie Qingyu originally wanted to resist, but one of the little guys directly restrained Xie Qingyu's arm, due to the disparity in strength, Xie Qingyu couldn't move at all, so he had to be disposed of.
The other person directly tied the rope around Xie Qingyu's hands, and the little guy's calloused hands tightened the rope at this moment, and Xie Qingyu's wrists were scarred, and in an instant, his hands turned purple red because of blood loss.
Xie Qingyu was in pain instantly, and the tears in his eyes flowed down involuntarily.
Xie Qingyu thought to himself, isn't it true that he wants to marry someone else like this today?
"What a big breath, how dare you kidnap someone in broad daylight?" At this moment, a low, magnetic voice came from outside the Jiande Hall.
Xie Qingyu turned around suddenly, and found that the person who came was wearing a dark shirt, all around his body was embroidered with gold threads, wearing a purple and gold crown of auspicious clouds, and only a sky blue python pattern gold belt was pinned to his waist, and the whole person looked very noble, making people dare not look directly.
Although his face was expressionless, he had already made people perceive the coercion of the silk, and his narrow eyes were even more cold.
It's him!
Nangong Chengyu!
The people in the room instantly fell silent, and they were all stunned.
"Don't you want to see the prince of Wu'an?" Yun Jinyu was still wearing his moon-white robe, and slowly walked out from behind Nangong Chengyu.
