My mother was particularly excited. She was secretly worried about my marriage. Every time I went to a banquet, she always tried her best to introduce me to the ladies present, hoping that they would like me, or make me a matchmaker, or ask someone to be a matchmaker to make me a daughter-in-law. But when I was fourteen years old, I still didn't have a matchmaker, and the other girls were probably engaged at eleven or twelve or even earlier.

Gradually, my mother looked at me with a sense of guilt. When I was a child, she occasionally scolded me, but as I grew up, she became more and more doting, including my sister. I was puzzled by this, but later I realized that she was sorry because she thought that my sister and I were so unpopular because of her. She is the most famous shrew in the country, who would dare to marry her daughter? I can't afford to provoke her as a mother-in-law; Second, I am also afraid that she will marry another shrew like her.

Now, I have solved my mother's worst worries by myself. The fact that I was able to invite King Qi to my house was enough to surprise her. As for the follow-up development of King Qi and me, that's another matter.

In her opinion, her daughter is in the limelight this time, and being recognized by King Qi is equivalent to being recognized by all the men in the capital.

Her jealous name not only did not affect her daughter's market, but made her daughter more capable, more promising, and more marketable than anyone's daughter, which made her once invincible heart uneventful again.

She really couldn't help this sense of pride and pride, and in the busiest three days before King Qi's arrival, she also took the time to string the door several times. Everywhere I went, I told others the news that King Qi was coming to my house to enjoy the flowers, and then I waited to see the stunned looks and envious expressions of others.

With my mother as a communicator and so many microphones, the news that King Qi was coming to my house soon flew all over the streets and alleys of the capital like a bird with wings. The Prime Minister's Office once again made headlines on the news list in the capital.

Everyone is waiting to see the follow-up development of this matter, it is said that someone in the casino has begun to bet on this matter, I don't know what the proportion is, anyway, it is nothing more than betting on whether King Qi will marry me. It is said that there is also a woman who threatens to commit suicide in public on Tongque Street if the King of Qi marries me: because it is too unreasonable! Flowers inserted into cow dung are not this method either.

Fortunately, my mother and I have never been the kind of people who will conform to public opinion, who loves to gamble and who loves to commit suicide, anyway, we want this golden beetle son-in-law to decide.

Unexpectedly, this news also attracted an unexpected person.

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, when I went out to buy items, I actually met Jia Quan at the door. She had just come out of the sedan chair and asked me at the door, "I heard that you invited His Royal Highness King Qi to our house as a guest, right?" ”

I smiled and said, "Even you know, the news is spreading so fast." ”

"Ouch my sister, your mother wishes the whole world knew about this, these days everyone has said it, and now even the people who ask for food on the street know it."

Is it really that exaggerated?

But if you think about it seriously, even if my mother doesn't talk about it everywhere, Jia Quan will know. They don't do anything else all day, just to inquire about our side of the story. The big and small things on our side, no matter how big or small, which one they are not very interested in?

Her mother's whole interest was to inquire about the affairs between my father and my mother, and she was eager to plant a spy in my mother's room, so that she could report to her every day about my parents' interactions, preferably including private whispers, etc.

Jia Quan and Jia Jun worked hard with me and Xiao Wu all day long, and if we wore any new clothes or jewelry, they would definitely ask our father for it. My father also knew that he owed their mother, so he always took and asked for money, and our family had money anyway. My mother didn't care too much about this, she had already kicked the girl out, and she couldn't help but let her live.

Now that we have such a big news here, and it is related to my marriage, Jia Quan naturally wants to come over to find out the news. She has to compare everything with me, I befriended the King of Qi, how can she be willing? So I hurriedly rushed over to see if it was real.

I didn't want to pester with her anymore, I just told her, "Daddy went to court and is not at home now." ”

"I know", Jia Quan said with a smile: "I'm here to see if I want to help, there must be a lot of things to entertain such a distinguished guest at home, and multiple people are always multiple helpers." ”

I hurriedly said, "Thank you, there are enough people in the family, so I won't work my sister." ”

After saying that, I lowered my head and got into the sedan chair. I still have a lot of things to do today, and I don't have time to talk to her.

Jia Quan came over and stretched out his hand to hold my sedan pole, lifted the sedan curtain and asked in a low voice, "You said that if King Qi saw the two of us at the same time, who would he choose?" ”

My eyes darkened, "What do you mean by that?" ”

"It's not interesting, it's just fun to ask."

"King Qi is not such a shallow person!" Although I said this, I don't know why I panicked.

"Is it shallow to like beauty? Everyone has a love for beauty. It's just human nature to like beautiful women. Just like you like King Qi, it's also because he's handsome, if he's an ugly monster, will you like it? ”

"I like King Qi not just because he's handsome."

"Of course, it's because he's a noble prince."

I'm silent, is that really the case? Is it really just because he is handsome enough and noble enough that I like him? No! I replied to myself in my heart: I like him because he is my King of Qi, I am his Wuyan, we are originally a couple.

But I didn't want to tell her these words, I motioned to get up the sedan chair, and when Jia Quan let go, he said in a provocative tone again: "Let's compare, see who can get the favor of King Qi." I want to see if the way of the world has really changed, ladies are not popular, but shrews are in charge. My mother didn't accept it, and neither did I! Let's make a thorough comparison. ”

With that, she walked away, and my palanquin started. I didn't have time to say anything more to her, and sat in the sedan chair sullenly, and the feeling of panic became even stronger.

Trying to hold back my uneasyness, I walked around the street, and after buying almost everything I needed to buy, I took Xiaocui into a restaurant.

As soon as I entered the door, the owner of the restaurant hurriedly walked out of the counter and said, "Third Miss, you are here." ”

This is the restaurant that my family owns, I smiled and nodded to the shopkeeper and said, "Well, I came out to run errands, and I was tired of walking, so come in and have a glass of water." ”

"The little one hurry up and serve tea to Miss, Miss, please go upstairs and sit in the private seat, there are many people here, and it is very noisy."

"It's okay, I'll just sit in the window seat for a while, finish the tea, take a little rest and leave, the family has been very busy these two days."

"The little one also heard about it, and it has been rumored on the street in the past two days, saying that the third lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion is really amazing, and she actually invited His Royal Highness King Qi to go down to enjoy the flowers. This has never happened, His Royal Highness King Qi, what a noble person he is, and only the young lady of our Prime Minister's Mansion has this face. The shopkeeper was smiling and flattering me as much as he could.

As I was talking, a blue-robed man who was sitting at another table for dinner walked up to me, his eyes were still staring straight at me, and the shopkeeper stopped in front of me and said, "This guest, what do you want to do?" This is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

The blue-robed man still approached and looked at me as if he hadn't heard it, his eyes shining with surprise, and he still had words in his mouth: "It's a pity, it's a pity," and shook his head as he spoke.

The shopkeeper made a gesture to the distance, and immediately surrounded several men, and the shopkeeper said to the blue-robed man: "This guest, if you have finished eating, please go to the checkout, we welcome you to come again next time; If you haven't finished eating, please go over and continue eating. If you harass our young lady like this again, then don't blame us for being rude. ”

The blue-robed man still turned a deaf ear, and the shopkeeper made a look, and several men immediately grabbed his arm to drag him away, and at this moment, I heard him say: "It's a pity, it was originally a very noble life, but it's a pity that it didn't end well." ”

My heart moved, and I hurriedly shouted "let him go", and then walked over and asked, "What did you mean when Sir just said that the life of the extreme dignity is extremely noble?" ”

The blue-robed man said, "Miss is a daughter, what else can this extremely noble life be?" It's just that Miss's gold and water are too prosperous, and things will be reversed, and the moon will be lost. The time of prosperity is also the day of decline. ”

"Is this life solvable?"

"If Miss had seen me a few days earlier, it might have been solved, but it's too late now. Fate? Life also. The blue-robed man said that he was about to go to the checkout, and I hurriedly said, "Sir, this meal will be free, I should have invited Mr." ”

"Then thank you, Miss." The blue-robed man returned the salute and turned to leave.

The shopkeeper said: "Another magic stick, he heard me talking to the young lady, and knew that the young lady was the owner of this restaurant, so he came over to talk a few nonsense and save money for a meal." Miss, don't take his words to heart. Why can't he die well, I'm sorry, if he can really tell fortunes and solve his life, why don't he solve his life better, and he is still just a mess at the age of dozens of years? ”

I was lost in thought. I have been wondering in my heart: This extremely noble life, does it mean that I will marry the King of Qi in the end? But what does it mean to be in the midst of prosperity and decay? Could it be that King Qi and I will not die well in the end? Because he will rebel, will he plot to rob his stupid nephew?

No matter how much, as long as you can marry him, you won't have a good end.

What I didn't expect was that fate played such a big joke on me.
