Chapter 140: Marriage proposal

The tour of Journey to the West and the performance of Shangfu are not small profits. Of course, A-Xing doesn't want to give up, although there are difficulties in the stage set, but in her opinion, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome.

And the palace also sent an invitation to their theater, please listen to Song go to the palace to perform Journey to the West on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15. The royal palace is different from the ordinary merchant family, which can also refuse for practical reasons, and the invitation of the royal palace is equivalent to an order that cannot be disobeyed.

Although the stage background is complicated, as long as you are willing to take the time to set it up, it is no problem. Ah Xing spent a sum of money to make two other batches of stage background props for touring and Shangfu performances. At that time, as long as you go to set up the stage two days in advance, the effect will not be bad.

Just when Ah Xing was busy with going to the palace to perform, something unexpected happened to her.

There was a matchmaker who came to the door to propose!

Liu Guihua happened to be at home that day, Liu Guihua knew that Li Runfu had been worrying about A-Xing's family affairs, and when she saw the matchmaker coming to the door, she asked the third aunt of the neighbor to take care of it, and she immediately went to find Li Runfu back.

Li Runfu heard that a matchmaker came to propose marriage, and he was also very excited. Ah Xing is 14 years old, and girls as big as her in the alley have generally made a family appointment, just waiting for the marriage to be completed, and Ah Xing has caused a lot of rumors because she has been worried about the affairs of the theater, so no one has come to the door to propose marriage. Although A-Xing is not in a hurry at all. also comforted him and said that he would recruit a son-in-law in the future, but his daughter was so ignored and disliked by everyone, and he was still very sad in his heart. Today, I suddenly heard that someone came to the door to propose marriage, and my mood suddenly became relaxed.

When the two returned home, they saw the third aunt and the matchmaker chatting at home. When the matchmaker saw Li Runfu and the others, she smiled and said, "Congratulations on your upcoming marriage to the Babaolou Wang family!" ”

When several people heard this, they couldn't help but be overjoyed. Babaolou is the largest restaurant in Jincheng, and has branches in nearby small towns. And the Wang family is also a big family in Jincheng.

Liu Guihua was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "I don't know which son's matchmaker you are for?" "As we all know, in addition to his wife, the lord of the Wang family also has a three-room concubine room, and a total of three sons. Among the three sons, the eldest is the most capable, the third can read, and the second is the most incompetent. So be sure to ask clearly, if it is to be a matchmaker for Lao 2, it is better not to agree.

The matchmaker shook the silk scarf in her hand, her eyes smiled into a slit, "No, this time I really want to congratulate you, your family's A Xing is really a blessing, she was favored by the Wang family's master, the Wang family's master's wife died the year before last, this is to welcome A Xing as a wife!" When the master of the Wang family was listening to Song watching the play, he saw Ah Xing by chance, and was shocked, and saw that she ran the theater so well at a young age, and the profits of the theater were also very considerable. is not liked by everyone, and the family affairs have not been smooth, so I can't help but think about it, although I am older than A Xing, but I welcome her as a wife, and in terms of A Xing's current situation, it is already a good destination to be the wife of a big family like him. And old husbands and young wives are also very common things here.

"Master Wang?" Li Runfu screamed, jumped up from the chair all of a sudden, and said excitedly: "The old man of the Wang family is nearly 50 years old, and my A-Xing is only 14 years old, are you asking my A-Xing to fill the house for an old man?" ”

Liu Guihua and the third aunt also showed an unbelievable look, what kind of matchmaker is this?

The matchmaker seemed to have expected Li Runfu's reaction, she smiled slightly, and said slowly: "Although the master of the Wang family is older, his body is still very healthy. Moreover, the Wang family is well-off, Ah Xing will be a pearl like a jewel when he marries him, no longer have to work hard, no longer have to endure hardships, and he will have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime! Although your A-Xing can do business, the most important thing for a woman is to find a stable home, what else can the Wang family find fault with besides being older? Brother Li has to look at things broadly, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for A Xing. Don't ruin A-Xing's good marriage! ”

Li Runfu immediately retorted: "Mrs. Wang, what you said is wrong, what is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?" My A-Xing is beautiful, smart and capable, and she will definitely be able to marry a good man! Why do you need to fill the house for an old man! He frowned, waved his hand and said, "I don't agree to this family business!" You've found another one for me! ”

When the matchmaker heard him say no, she remembered the oversized red envelope promised by the Wang family, and her emotions couldn't help but get excited, her hands fluttered wildly, and her spit splashed, "Brother Li, are you so easy to find when you are a family member A Xing?" Right! A-apricot is smart, capable, and beautiful! But she doesn't care if she shows up all day long, and she is still mixed with a bunch of lowly actors, which serious person would want such a girl to be a daughter-in-law! Aren't you afraid of people's jokes? How beautiful it looks? And you said you would never be a concubine! You've been asking me for so long, and I've finally found you a good person, but now you're here to pick and choose! Let me tell you, Brother Li, there will be no such shop in this village after that, Ah Xing missed this family business, and if you want to think of such a good person as the main room in the future, you won't have a chance! ”

Li Runfu heard the matchmaker say that Ah Xing was so unbearable, and the fire came up as soon as he saw it, pointing at the matchmaker's nose and saying, "I don't believe that my Ah Xing has to fill the old man's house!" You go, you don't have to worry about A-Xing's family affairs in the future! Jincheng is so big, I don't believe that all people are so visionless! My A-Xing will definitely be able to marry a young talent! I'm going to smash your sign with rotten eggs! ”

As soon as the matchmaker heard that the matchmaker's red envelope had soaked in soup, she was also on fire, stood up, twisted her butt and walked towards the gate, and turned back as she walked: "It's also a young talent!" Dream on! If this continues, you will watch your daughter become an old aunt! ”

Li Runfu was so angry that he trembled, picked up the teacup on the table and threw it at the matchmaker. The matchmaker hugged her head and ducked. Not daring to stay any longer, he rushed out of the gate scolding.

Afterwards, Ah Xing learned about this from Liu Guihua's mouth, so she said to her father: "Daddy, it's good that you didn't agree to this family business!" Don't ask the matchmaker to do these things in the future, didn't we all say it before? You're still afraid that I won't be able to get married! ”

Li Runfu said with a depressed face: "But it seems that girls of the same age as you have made family appointments, but you ...... It makes me feel bad to see you being looked down upon! ”

Ah Xing smiled and comforted her father: "Daddy, what are you uncomfortable with?" They look down on me, and I don't look down on them anymore! I'm doing well and happily now, and I will definitely find a good husband in the future, Daddy, you also have faith in A-Xing! ”

Liu Guihua also persuaded on the side: "Brother Li, now Tingsong's business is so good, Journey to the West is so popular, even the prince has personally mentioned the word to Tingsong, over time, everyone will definitely change their opinion of A Xing, maybe it won't be long before a good family will come to propose a marriage to A Xing." You don't have to rush! ”

Under the persuasion of his relatives, Li Runfu gradually relieved himself, "Yes, those people are not worthy of my daughter, they don't want you to be they have no vision and no blessing." My A-Xing will definitely be able to find a good husband in the future! ”

"Daddy is right to think so, and Daddy won't look for matchmakers in the future, so as not to be angry for these people again."

Ah Xing didn't take this matter to heart at all, not to mention that no one proposed to her now, even if there was a suitable person who proposed to her, she would not agree casually. Her soul doesn't belong here, no matter how much she wants to integrate into this society, the education she has received since she was a child cannot make her accept blind marriage and dumb marriage, even if it was the marriage arranged by the family in her previous life, she still gave them a lot of opportunities to get along and understand each other before, but at that time she was disheartened and discouraged so she obeyed the family's arrangement. If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have accepted that marriage. Now that she is in this world, she can't help herself, but now she is independent, and idlers can't do anything to her, and she must obey her own wishes in terms of family affairs.

Soon it was August 15, and as early as August 13, Ah Xing had already arranged for Master Zhong to go to the palace to set up the stage. On August 15, Ah Xing asked Ling Zifeng to take the actors of one or two episodes to the palace, and he stayed at home to celebrate the festival with his family.

In the evening, Ah Xing happily finished dinner with her family and was about to help Liu Guihua clean up. The Chen sisters suddenly pulled her into the room, looking a little unhappy.

Chen Ying asked her coldly: "A-Xing, why don't you go to the palace?" ”

Ah Xing walked to the window, the moon was like a silver plate hanging in the night sky, she looked at the bright moon, and said softly: "Uncle Ling is also the boss, just let him go, and today is the day of reunion, I want to be with my family." ”

Chen Jing walked up to her, looked at her coldly and asked, "Ah Xing, you won't go to the palace because you don't want to see Shen Yuanfeng, do you want to avoid him?" ”

Ah Xing was stunned, and only replied softly after a while: "I didn't mean that." ”

Chen Ying's thick eyebrows were raised, and there was anger in his eyes: "I think that's what you mean at all!" Shen Yuanfeng is so good to you, but you break his heart again and again! ”

This time, Chen Jing didn't stop her sister's words, she looked at Ah Xing coldly with a cold face.

A-Xing turned her head and faced them, the moon sprinkled her with silver frost, and her face had a layer of glow in the moonlight, looking as holy as a fairy.

"Two sisters, I know that you are Shen Yuanfeng's good friends and care about him very much, but the matter between us is not something you can understand, you can blame me. But I hope you don't interfere too much with my decision. ”

Chen Ying snorted coldly and said, "We don't want to interfere in your affairs, it's just that there are some things that we can't stand anymore!" A-Xing, after being with you for so long, we also know that you are a good girl, smart and capable, and very kind at heart. You are so good to everyone around you, even those who once wanted to betray you, you can forgive them regardless of their previous suspicions! The more Chen Ying said, the more excited he became, "But why?" Why are you so ruthless to Shen Yuanfeng? You know that he will come back during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and you don't go to the palace just to avoid him! You know how much he wants to see you! Do you know how much he did for you in secret? Do you know why we're here to protect you? ”

Hearing this, Chen Jing hurriedly grabbed Chen Ying and stopped her in a loud voice, "Sister, we promised Shen Yuanfeng not to say anything!" ”

Chen Ying shook off her sister's hand excitedly, turned back to her and said loudly: "No, I must say it today, otherwise she won't know how much Shen Yuanfeng has paid for her at all!" ”

Chen Jing was stunned, slowly withdrew her hand, stood aside, and stopped making a sound, obviously supporting her sister's decision.

When Ah Xing heard this, she already vaguely understood that the arrival of the Chen sisters must not be as simple as Shen Yuanfeng said! Thinking about it, the Chen sisters' skills are far more clever than she imagined, so how could they come to her to find something to do?

Chen Ying walked up to her, looked directly at her, and said clearly: "Ah Xing, you don't really think that we are here to find something to do and make money!" Although our sisters are not from rich and noble families, it is easy to make money, and we can't follow you every day! ”

Ah Xing lowered her head and asked softly, "It was Shen Yuanfeng who asked you to come?" ”

Chen Jing sneered and said, "We are on good terms with Shen Yuanfeng, but we are not going to casually bind ourselves for many years for his request!" ”

Ah Xing raised her head and looked at them, showing a puzzled expression, so how did Shen Yuanfeng let them stay by her side willingly to protect her? Thinking of this, Ah Xing's heart was a little nervous, and she subconsciously didn't want to know that answer, she already owed him a lot, and this answer would only aggravate her guilt.

Chen Ying naturally didn't care about her feelings, she was bound to ask Ah Xing to understand the truth today and be willing to understand Shen Yuanfeng's good intentions.

"The reason why we will stay by your side to protect you is because of that True Yuan Pill!"

"True Yuan Dan?"

Chen Jing was on the side to explain Ah Xing's confusion, "Zhenyuan Dan is a kind of pill that his master refined before he died, as long as it is taken by a person who has reached the age of 18, it can increase his power for 20 years in a short period of time. He didn't take it because he wasn't old enough. This time, he is using this True Yuan Pill in exchange for our protection from you. We naturally won't refuse such a miraculous elixir, even if we are two sisters and a half, we can increase our power for 10 years, and this elixir is indeed magical, we all feel that our power has increased a lot after taking it! ”

Chen Ying sighed, his face solemn: "True Yuan Dan is something that everyone who practices martial arts wants to have, as long as you take it, you can increase your power for 20 years at once, it can be said to be the treasure of martial arts!" She stopped, looked at Ah Xing again, and her eyes were cold, "But for the sake of you, he handed over this martial arts treasure to us without thinking about it!" Do you know what he's missing? It's twenty years of skill! He obviously can soon become a top master in the martial arts, which has always been his dream, but he gave up this shortcut for you! 20 years! Do you think it's easy? ”

"We got his treasure like this, and we didn't want to go to it, so we tried very hard to protect you! But watching you hurt him again and again, it really makes us worthless for him, you treat him like this, so what is everything he has done for you? Chen Jing said these words almost in a very painful tone.
