Chapter 71: Marry her

Sure enough, halfway through the meal, the eldest lady Gu said to the family members present with a kind smile, "After thinking about it for a long time, I decided to marry Ji'er to Jian Xiu to be the fourth young grandmother in our house. ”

Everyone was surprised for a moment, and the smile on the corner of Jian Xiu's mouth when he heard this didn't know how beautiful it was.

Liu Piaoyi's hand holding chopsticks suddenly froze, and the news really caught her off guard.

Chonghui pouted on the side, as if he was unsatisfied.

"No......" Liu Piaoyi suddenly said.

Jian Xiu's smile was suddenly stunned.

Xiangye was also confused, Ling Xinan came to ask for a kiss, she didn't want to, why Jian Xiu didn't want to.

Mei Xinyue also frowned, and everyone's eyes stopped on Miss Liu's face to study deeply.

"Why?" The eldest lady Gu asked hurriedly.

Only then did Liu Piaoyi retract the gloomy face just now, looked at everyone and said, "Ji'er's parents have only passed away for a year, and Yi'er has to keep filial piety, and when the three years are over, Ji'er wants to get married." ”

That's right.

The eldest lady glanced at Jian Xiu, worried that Jian Xiu was unhappy.

However, Jian Xiu smiled faintly and looked at Miss Liu, "Ji'er is right, you should keep filial piety for three years, and it's not too late to marry when you are old." ”

Liu Piaoji looked at Jian Xiu, and he stared at himself with a smile and understanding. In fact, she knew that she was just making an excuse, but he could understand it that way.

The eldest lady thought that her sister went, but she also wanted Ji'er to be happy, and she wanted to keep her filial piety for three years, so she didn't stop it much, and said, "This is also right, but you can let the two of you get engaged first, and then get married after two years." ”

She looked at Liu Piaoyi, "Do you think this is good?" ”

Jian Xiu was in a strange and excited mood and waited for her answer, even if she was engaged, then she was her own person.

Liu Piao's thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and he thought about it for a long time before he spit out a word, "Okay." ”

This sentence is good, it really makes everyone present happy, especially the eldest lady with a smile on her face, "Then just like that, choose a good day and let all the relatives in the family come to visit, and the Prime Minister is happy to be engaged to Yi'er." ”

Mei Xinyue immediately congratulated Jian Xiu, "The fourth brother is so happy that he can marry Ji'er." ”

The eldest brother Jingxiu raised his wine glass and said to Jian Xiu, "Come, eldest brother congratulates you first." ”

They didn't listen to a word of their joy, and there was a confusion in her head, and she didn't know how she agreed.

Can you still regret it?

After dinner and the rain stopped, Liu Piaoyi wanted to go back to his Zixuan Pavilion in a hurry, and as soon as he got out of the courtyard of the eldest lady, Jian Xiu followed her steps.

Although she had a smile on her face, he always felt that she was not happy in his heart.

He was afraid that she had someone else in her heart and had no affection for him. But he still wanted to ask her sincerely, was he really willing?

Hearing footsteps behind him, Liu Piaoyi clearly understood that he was chasing after him. At this time, she didn't want to talk to him, she just wanted to escape as soon as possible to make herself quiet, but he had already caught up.

"Remember." His soft voice made Liu Piao stunned.

In the verandah, she stopped, and he pestled in front of her.

She lowered her eyes and didn't want to meet his gaze, afraid that her slight expression would make him notice.

"You ......" Jian Xiu pondered for a moment, looked at Chu Liu seriously and said, "Yi'er, this is my mother's wish, and it is also my wish, I want to marry you." ”

This is him seriously saying what he wants in his heart, to tell him that he really wants to marry her.

"I've agreed." Liu Piaoyi raised his eyes to meet his gaze. She had agreed, what else could she say.

Is this from the heart, he can't see it, her expression is straight without a trace of excitement and joy.

Jian Xiu had nothing to say, just stared at her in a daze.

"Ji'er went back to the room first." Her cold and simple words still made him feel uneasy.

This night, Liu Piaoyi lay on the bed for a long time and did not fall asleep, his mind was far away, and his mind recalled those memories with Brother Luo Yan again. It was her dream to marry Brother Luo Yan, even if she was young at the time, it was just a little girl's wish, but that wish has been in her heart since the day she met Brother Luo Yan, until now.

But in this life, I will never see Brother Luo Yan again, he is desolate underground, can you understand her pain?

~~~~~~~~

Jian Xiu sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Liu Piao, who was sleepy and had hot forehead, covered her with a quilt, and said softly, "How could you suddenly get sick?" ”

Hearing that Chunlin was in a hurry to find He Baolin early in the morning, Jian Xiu realized that Ji'er was sick, and he was going to Dufusi, so he didn't go, so he came in a hurry.

Jian Xiu frowned, the decision made by the family last night made you to engage with me was made, and you will be sick today. Before the engagement is decided, you are sick, really......

Jian Xiu didn't want to think about it. Is she really reluctant?

Pulling back his thoughts, he saw that Ji'er's mouth opened slightly.

Jian Xiu put his ear to her lips and vaguely heard the word "water".

He stood up, walked to the table, poured a glass of water, returned to the bed, helped her to sit up, and handed the glass to her mouth, but the water in the cup flowed down the corners of his mouth.

Helplessly, Jian Xiu put the water in her mouth, gently parted her lips, mouth-to-mouth, and sent water into her lips.

I fed her two glasses of water in a row before laying her flat on the bed.

wiped the water stains on the corners of her mouth, looked at her slightly pale face, and the trace of apology came to her heart again.

Is it really because I want her to marry me that I get sick?

In his sad mind, he realized when Yun Xiu had come in, silent behind him.

"I'll come and see her." Yun Xiuzhi's fourth brother learned that he was coming, and took the initiative to explain his intention.

Jian Xiu didn't speak, still staring at the sleeping person on the bed.

"Is she better? I only learned when I saw Pauline come early in the morning. ”

Yun Xiu explained to himself.

"It's better." Jian Xiu didn't move his head or look back.

"It's better to be better." Yun Xiu smiled to himself. Thinking of the big news last night, his smile instantly stiffened on his face.

When Xiaoyin quietly came to He Baolin's residence, he saw that he was boiling medicine in a stove jar in front of the house, and that jar must be Miss Biao's medicine.

The courtyard of He Baolin's residence was full of herbs, which he sometimes picked up in the mountains.

For such a small illness and cold, He Baolin is not a problem at all, just boil some medicine and eat it. Although it was just a trivial matter, He Baolin still boiled the medicine himself.

He is the doctor who is supported in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Prime Minister's family is all about him to see the symptoms and recuperate, and he has always done his best.

Xiaoyin quietly hid to the side and looked at He Baolin's figure, wanting to find an opportunity, as long as He Baolin left for a while, she could put the packet of medicinal powder hidden on her body into the can.

When Miss Wan Xiu gave her the medicinal powder, she told her that eating people would not die, and it would only aggravate her condition.

This is the task that Miss Wan Xiu explained that she had to complete, Xiaoyin's nervous palms were sweaty, but she didn't dare to disobey.

Seeing that He Baolin had been guarding the boiling medicine, she had to think of a way to let him leave for a while.

He Baolin's residence is still a quiet place in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and if no one looks for him on weekdays, he will not come here.

Xiao Yin picked up a stone from the ground and threw it aside, trying to get He Baolin's attention so that he could leave.

Xiaoyin thought so and did so. But after He Baolin heard there was movement over there. I just walked over and took a look, saw that nothing happened, and came back again. In such a short time, Xiaoyin couldn't finish pouring the powder into the jar. Seeing that He Baolin was coming back immediately, Xiaoyin hurriedly hid again.

After watching for a long time, Xiaoyin did not complete her task, so she had to leave quietly.

Return to the Smoke and Rain Pavilion. Xiaoyin was scolded again by Miss Wan Xiu.

"It's useless to can't do such a trivial thing."

Xiaoyin said respectfully, He Baolin has never left the slave and maid, and there is no way.

Miss Wan Xiu's brows furrowed. Thinking about how it is so hard to deal with a cousin?

Lingfu.

Ling Xinan was in the pavilion by the lotus pond in the courtyard of the mansion, and set up a table with pen and ink. Kumquat waited.

Looking at the flowers in the lotus pond, Ling Xinan was reminiscing about the day when they visited the lake together in the Lotus Garden of Baishiqiao.

Holding the pen and thinking about it for a long time, he put pen to paper and made a drawing. The painting is not a landscape picture, nor is it a delicate flower in front of you, but a delicate girl leaning under the willow tree.

The woman in the painting is none other than Miss Liu, who is in his heart.

After finishing the painting, Kumquat was surprised and admired, "Miss Liu under the brush of the third young master is so beautiful." ”

The corners of Ling Xinan's mouth couldn't help but hook up a smile of satisfaction that had been rare for a long time.

He stamped his seal before he said to Kumquat, "Send this painting to Memorial." ”

Kumquat rolled up the painting, put it in the painting tube, and said seriously, "Third Young Master, don't worry, the slave will definitely send the painting to Miss Liu's hand in person." ”

Ling Xinan still looked a little worried, afraid that his paintings were not uncommon at this time. But when she thinks of Kumquat, she will definitely see her, after all, she was also present when she went into the water to save Kumquat. It was she who found Kumquat in the water, it was Kumquat who she let herself go into the water to save her, and it was she who kept Kumquat by her side.
