204 Proposals

Wang nodded, and said, "This medicine is not something else, so how can Mama Lin believe you for no reason?" ”

"Of course I said that I was from the four-leaf alley!" Xie Qidao. "The people in Xie Shilang's mansion, she can't help but believe it, right?"

"You told me who you are?" When Wang heard this, he stood up and twisted Xie Qi's ear: "You pig brain!" Are you afraid that others won't be able to find your home? When the time comes, if the matter is broken, people say that the girl from Siye Hutong instructed someone to do it, you see that your third uncle can spare you! ”

Xie Qi screamed in pain and begged for mercy, finally broke free, rubbed his ears and said: "Only me and Mrs. Lin know about this matter, how could she poke this thing out and hit her own feet?" ”

Wang sat down with hatred, and his heart was as angry as fire.

Xie Hong and Xie Rong are both her sons, even if the two brothers are so different, why are the children so different? Xie Qi can't even compare to half of Xie Wei!

But she was angry, and right now, apart from Xie Qi, she really couldn't find anyone to send with confidence.

So after breakfast the next day, the two went to the main courtyard in new makeup, preparing to cross the maple alley with the Huang family.

Seeing that the two of them were dressed up as if they were happy for the New Year, Huang didn't have the slightest sense of being a widow, but looked forward to going here, and couldn't help frowning: "There are many people at the banquet, so my mother should stay in the house, so it's not worth it to save yourself from making trouble." ”

A widowed grandmother going to her grandchild's wedding is not too rude, but she is a stepgrandmother after all. There are not a few people who know the relationship between the two sides. She rushed over with such a high-profile and flamboyant attitude, can others not talk about it behind their backs? It's been discussed, and it's not them who have been affected!

"What's this idea? If it weren't for the old lady's early death, I wouldn't have to handle these things? Although I haven't done anything in the past few years, it doesn't mean that I'm too old to be old! ”

Wang sat on the top and casually picked up the tea.

Huang was very speechless and ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair and set off.

Xie Wei didn't go, this was her own meaning. The Huang family also let her, and now she doesn't think much about their affairs, only Xie Yun is still not as obvious as Xie Rong. It's worth her to worry about. And Xie Yun is going to study in Guozijian. Come back before the next salute. Xie Rong went to the upper court, I don't know if he will go or not, and the Huang family doesn't want to ask, so he went out with Wang Xie Qi here.

Maple Hutong saw the arrival of Huang and others. Treat each other with courtesy. Yu and Mrs. Jin came forward to lead them into the inner house to rest. Then Mrs. Jin said: "Madame, as the aunt of the groom, please go out of her way to welcome the female guests today." ”

This can be regarded as the attitude given by Xie Lang and Xie Wan. No matter what happens in private, since they are still a family when they come to the face, being able to let Mrs. Jin come and invite her to come forward to welcome guests can be regarded as giving enough face. Otherwise, if it is taboo, how can you come forward to entertain guests? Aren't you afraid that you are secretly stirring up something to come out?

Of course Huang doesn't. As a woman from a Shili heirloom, she still has a minimum bottom line, and if she wants to fight, she also lets go of the fight, and in this case, she not only attracts others to see jokes, but also ruins her virtuous reputation.

As soon as Mrs. Jin said this, the Huang family couldn't get around, and after a few words of humility, seeing that Mrs. Jin still insisted, she had to nod.

There weren't many people who came last morning, Xie Wan was talking to Jin Ting and Wang Yuchun in the backyard, and when he heard that the Huang family was coming, he got up and went to the front hall to pay a respect. Huang smiled and nodded, and then said, "The old lady and Xie Qi are also here, and they are going to the backyard to rest." ”

Xie Wan had expected the arrival of the Wang family, but it was really unreasonable for Xie Qi to come. Xie Hong has been expelled from the clan, in what capacity did Xie Qi come over? Xie Wan looked at the Huang family, and after a turn of thought, he also understood what she meant by the joke, so he said: "The old lady is old, but she can't help making such a fuss, Luo Zhen quickly asked people to clean up the quiet small courtyard, so that the old lady can stay comfortable." ”

As long as they are locked up and not allowed to come out, they don't bother to care about anything else. There will always be some uninvited people for happy events, so I have to be transparent.

Huang heard that she had arranged it like this, and there was nothing to do, so he still smiled and went to talk to Mrs. Jin and Yu.

The luncheon was only open for four or five tables, and in the afternoon, there were gradually more people, Mrs. Wei obviously brought her three daughters-in-law over to support Xie Lang, and the Jin family and the Zhao family were almost all there, and several classmates from the same department as Xie Lang happened to be in Beijing, and they also came over. In addition, the colleagues and young civil officials who have been acquainted with Wei Bin in the past few days and those who are not in high official positions have gradually arrived one after another.

The mansion gradually became busy, and he was afraid that he would make a mistake in his busyness, so Qi Song told Qian Zhuang and Yu Sanhu to inspect carefully, and the Yu family in the inner courtyard also asked Xing Zhu and them to watch Wang and Xie Qi not leave an inch.

The caution of everyone also brought Xie Lang's nervousness, although he couldn't sleep like he couldn't sleep like he did at the beginning of the exam, but he was also a little restless at this time. Wei Xian and Ning Dayi Qi Ruzheng were also talking to him in a hurry, trying to distract him, but none of them had ever been married, so it didn't really help.

When Xie Wan and Jin Ting entered the courtyard, Xie Lang was probing his head and looking out. Xie Wan said: "What is my brother looking at?" ”

Xie Lang said that it was nothing, but his eyes couldn't help but look out, and he muttered: "Why haven't you come yet?" ”

Xie Wan became more and more puzzled. Jin Ting smiled: "Brother Xie must be looking forward to the bride!" ”

Xie Lang blushed. Wei Xian waved his hand impatiently at Jin Ting: "Where is the reason why the bride came to the door by herself?" The little girl doesn't understand, so she goes! ”

Jin Ting pouted and said angrily: "It's as if you're very big, aren't you only four years older than me!" ”

"Four years old is too much! ……”

The children on the Maple Hutong side talked about it, and in the Yin Mansion on the Durian Hutong side, Yin Yu was actively preparing to go to the banquet.

Gongsun Liu looked at him and studied the dowry list for more than half a month, as well as a large stack of congratulatory gift lists, plus two wild geese with wings tied, and said, "Lord, do you really plan to propose marriage by yourself?" ”

Yin Yu slowly checked the gift list in his hand and said, "Why not?" ”

Gongsun Liu sweated on his forehead, "There is no reason to run to the door to propose marriage." ”

Yin Yu looked at him coldly: "Then do you think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will go out of the palace to make such a trip for me?" ”

Gongsun Liu was speechless and choked.

Yin Yu put away the list and said, "You guys are ready to prepare, and we'll go over later." When he got up, he turned around, pointed to the pair of geese and said, "Good life waiting!" Don't starve them. ”

A large black line rose on the door of Gongsun Liu's head, and he was about to hold on to the door frame to retreat, when Qin Fang suddenly walked in quickly, "Lord! The female dependents on the other side of the four-leaf alley, except for Xie Wei, all went to Miss Wan's house. And Mrs. Li, who had just quit with Xie Wei and turned her head to ask Miss Wan, also came over! ”

For today's matter, their lord can transfer more than half of the twelve shadow guards to fight an ambush, and now that there is a suspicious target appearing, of course he must come back as soon as possible to report.

Yin Yu frowned: "Wan Wan gave the Li family a post?" ”

"Probably not!" Qin Fang said: "That day, Mrs. Li came out of the Xie family with a red face that she was so angry, and it was impossible for Miss Wan to hand her the post again. ”

Yin Yu frowned, touched his chin and groaned.

Xie Wan heard that Mrs. Li was also here, although she didn't expect it to be related to Xie Qi and them, but she also vaguely guessed the other party's intention, even if she didn't propose marriage in person on this occasion, it would be very unfavorable to her to reveal this meaning, but there was no reason to turn people away from doing happy events, otherwise it would be unlucky, so she had to let Mrs. Jin take her to the inner house, and she would send another clever maid to watch her.

After Mrs. Li was humiliated in front of the Yu family that day, she had indeed cut off this thought, and these days she was ready to choose another wife for Li Jun. And Mama Lin has said no less than dozens of benefits of marrying the Xie family in the past few days, at first she was able to stabilize her heart, but later she talked about it many times, and she remembered that when she saw Xie Wan in front of the Xie family, she was so amazing, and the dead heart gradually came back to life.

Mama Lin persuaded her twice more, and said that she would come to the door on the good day of Xie Lang's marriage today, and maybe she would be able to find a turnaround again, so she made up her mind.

She didn't expect to be able to succeed in courting a marriage, but she heard that Mrs. Wei and they would also go, and they would mention this matter to the Yu family again and again, and secondly, they would also meet Mrs. Wei, which was not a complete rush.

So at this time, Mrs. Li entered the Xifu Hall under the guidance of Mrs. Jin, and all the female guests with status were received here. Mrs. Wei also vaguely heard that Mrs. Li turned her head and asked Xie Wan to ask for marriage, and was talking to Zhao Zhen's wife, and when she heard that Mrs. Li was coming, she couldn't help but be stunned. When the wives and relatives of several young civil officials heard that it was the wife of the head of the household department, who was of a higher grade than themselves, they all stood up.

Mrs. Li saw the lady with charming facial features at the top of the head, guessed that it was Mrs. Wei, and stepped forward to salute.

Mrs. Wei smiled and said, "I didn't expect to see Mrs. Li here." ”

The two had never dealt with each other, and at the moment they were just polite words. Mrs. Li didn't dare to slack off: "Thanks to Mrs. Jin for building a bridge, it can be regarded as a friendship." One is such a big happy event, there is no reason not to come, and the other is that I heard that Mrs. is also here, so I also came to ask Mrs. for peace. ”

Mrs. Wei nodded with a smile, tacitly.

Although Wang and Xie Ku were detained in the backyard, it did not affect them to receive news from the front yard. Here the two of them were looking around the courtyard, thinking about what kind of thing could be bought with how much silver, when they heard the maids say that Mrs. Li was coming.

Xie Qimei smiled and said to Wang: "Now the old lady should know that I am not wrong, right?" ”

Wang nodded, picked up the silver comb on the makeup table and pinned it to his bun, then sneered and crooked on the couch and said, "As long as Mrs. Li has this meaning, Xie Wan won't want to clean it up from this matter!" Married to someone who dumped her sister, I want to see what kind of good reputation she can get! (To be continued.) )
