Chapter 170、Bring your sister and your dowry to the carriage?
Seeing that it was Xin Yi, Wei Ling'er glanced up, with some hostility in her eyes, but it was not obvious, she lowered her head and retreated to the old lady's side.
"Xin Yi greets the old lady." She said obediently, bending over and bending. After getting the old lady's nod, he turned around and bowed to Mu Fangjin a little reluctantly, and finally arrived at Wei Ling'er's place and bent down: "Sister Ling'er." ”
Seeing this, Wei Ling'er was a little unwilling, but after all, it was in the way of the old lady's face, so she could only be equally blessed, and then said: "Miss Xinyi, I'm afraid I can't stand your 'sister'." As she spoke, she raised her eyes and glanced at the old lady, "Wait a few days, you and our son-in-law will get married, but you are the lady of the main house, and I am afraid that I will not even dare to call this 'sister' in the future." ”
"I'm afraid my sister is too worried." Xin Yi replied with a smile: "Let's not talk about seniority, just about the elder and youngest, what do you think, sister, sister." ”
This is tantamount to saying that Wei Ling'er is old in disguise, she is a smart person, how could she not hear Xin Yi's words, the smile on Wei Ling'er's face disappeared immediately when she heard this, and Mu Fangjin on the side really wanted to laugh, but she couldn't laugh out loud, so she had to press her lips with her knuckles, and it was easy to hold back, and she continued to sit upright and pretend to be serious.
When the old lady saw it, she also coughed lightly and said, "Ling'er, you can go back first." ”
Wei Ling'er was naturally very angry, and saw that her eyebrows were pulled together, but after hearing this, she didn't say anything after all. Obediently blessed, and then withdrew.
…… But before going out, she still didn't forget to glare at Xin Yi fiercely.
After seeing Wei Ling'er go out, the old lady let her sit down, and then she started to do home. After several laps of Tai Chi, she said to her younger siblings: "I heard that your younger siblings ...... I came to the capital with you this time? Still living in Xifu? ”
Xin Yi glanced at Mu Fangjin silently, and Mu Fangjin shrugged his shoulders and told her with a relaxed look: Don't be afraid, don't worry about anything!
Therefore, Xin Yi expected that Mu Fangjin had already greeted his mother just now, so he replied reassuringly: "Yes, because Jizhou is too far away, and my younger brothers and sisters are still young, I don't feel at ease to leave them all in my hometown." It's also thanks to the second senior brother that he was able to vacate the Xifu for us," Speaking of this, she hurriedly added: "My younger brother and sister are here, so I don't have to always go back to my hometown, like this time, the second senior brother will delay the business." ”
It seemed that Aunt Mu was very satisfied with the review made by Xin Yi for dragging down Mu Fangjin and directly causing him not to catch up with the sacrifice of the Shangyuan Festival, so she nodded and replied generously: "It's not in the way, don't think about it." ”
"Thank you for your understanding." Xin Yi turned his head to look at Mu Fangjin, and at this time, the guy calmly handed over a 'count of 'you still have a conscience'.
Xin Yi just wanted to stare at him first, who had no conscience, but heard Aunt Mu over there suddenly speak again: "I heard that your sister is sixteen this year?" ”
She didn't know why this topic suddenly came to Peilan, and she quickly nodded: "Oh, yes, it's just sixteen after the New Year." ”
Aunt Mu smiled all over her face, as if she had thought of something, which made her feel a little relieved: "Then your sister, since you can come to the capital with you without any worries, I'm afraid it is...... I haven't decided to marry yet. ”
"This ...... Naturally, there is no ......" Xin Yi became more and more strange, why did this always turn to Pei Lan? She agreed, and turned her head to look at Mu Fangjin, who also had a confused look.
No one knows what this Aunt Mu is thinking about.
Therefore, Xin Yi decided to strike first: "Old lady, you care so much about my sister, is there a suitable candidate, I want to tell her about the matchmaker." Xin Yi smiled almost with a smile on his face: "I won't tell you, I'm just such a sister, and I will have to entrust her to a good family in the future to rest assured." ”
Aunt Mu glanced at Mu Fangjin meaningfully, and this look couldn't help but make him bow his head with a little remorse. Then the old lady obviously didn't show it too obviously, but Xin Yi could still feel the loss in her eyes...... Disappointed.
Xin Yi felt as if he understood something in an instant.
"I can't remember whose kid it is for a while." The old lady said perfunctorily, and then said: "Presumably they just came to the capital, I'm afraid you will be busy accompanying them more." ”
"No matter how you say this, no matter how busy you are, you can't forget to come to greet the old lady...... "...... Although this greeting is often late.
When Aunt Mu heard this, the look of displeasure on her face was slightly relieved, and she put on a little smile: "Come on, you don't have to accompany me, it's a good life for a month, and you're busy, so don't delay it with me." ”
As soon as they heard that Aunt Mu had given the order to send off guests, Xin Yi and Mu Fangjin both obediently retreated. As soon as he walked out of the door half a step, Xin Yi grabbed Mu Fangjin's sleeve and asked busily, "What did the old lady mean just now?" How can you always talk about Perlan? ”
Mu Fangjin coughed lightly, looked around and didn't speak.
"Shhh Recalling the unnaturalness of Fang Cai Mu Fangjin when he accepted the old lady's gaze, Xin Yi's conjecture was further implemented: "It won't be...... Your mother still wants Perrin to marry you!? ”
"Ahem, you should understand what your mother means." Mu Fangjin was also a little helpless when he said: "Stretch the incense!" ”
"I really see that the old lady is in a hurry." When Xin Yi said this, he also poked him with his elbow: "How many concubines are you going to take in order to take you, and you will also hit my family Peilan?" ”
Mu Fangjin dodged: "It's not that I see that you are very jealous, and it is just like seeing Ling'er Yuyao's appearance, if it is my own sister, I may ...... Look at you, why are you unhappy again. ”
As soon as she heard this, she also knew that Mu Fangjin was teasing her, and she didn't know what Old Lady Mu was thinking at first, but she calmed down, and snorted again: "Empress E, you want to be beautiful, so I won't marry Pei Lan to you like this!" As he spoke, he glanced at him with disdain: "Don't joke with you, I think I have to find a good family for Pei Lan now, otherwise I always feel that the old lady's eyes are on Pei Lan and she will not give up." ”
Mu Fangjin pursed his lips: "Hmph, just say bad things about me in front of me, and don't help you." ”
"Good look, what kind of child's ......temper you play," Xin Yi said, but he also persuaded him with a few words: "Forget it, even if I just said it wrong, it's not good, you know a lot of people in the court, why don't you find a young talent to match with her?" The official position does not need to be too high, as long as the character is good...... By the way, it's a little handsome, that's the best. ”
After hearing this, the second senior brother of her family reached out and patted her on the skull: "There are still a lot of requirements, and there will be some handsome in the end!?" What counts as a handsome? Do I count? ”
Xin Yi took a beat, and when he saw that he had an eyebrow, he hurriedly stepped forward like a dog, and said with a smile on his face: "How can you be a little handsome, you are a big handsome!" "Well, Marshal Tianpeng, that handsome second senior brother!
When Mu Fangjin heard this, he looked a little proud, deliberately pretended to be a cold and noble character, and coughed lightly: "Although I have worked hard in the court for several years, but in fact...... There aren't many people who are very good with me, Zhong Mo is already engaged, tsk! By the way, in fact, I have always felt that Li Shen is an excellent candidate...... I didn't expect to be introduced to Yuyao by you first...... Hey, little sister, don't kick me! ”
"You are cautious, you know that it is useless to talk about this, isn't it just reluctant to Yuan Yuyao! You don't have to knock on the side of me here and say over and over again, leave Yuyao for you! It's okay to stay! ”
"Look, which of us is careful?" The smile on Mu Fangjin's face was as low as ever: "Why do you lose your temper at every turn, I'm just saying Li Shen, you see, I think too much." When he said this, he stepped forward again: "That's what I just said, but if I think about it, there are not many people who are close to me and know the roots...... Especially if you want to find someone who is the same age as Perlan...... Don't worry, I'll keep an eye out for her. ”
"That's pretty much the same thing." Xin Yi finally rolled his eyes in mockery, snorted very arrogantly, and gave up.
Speaking of which, Zhong Mo and Li Shen are the two of them...... I heard that Zhong Mo once came to look for me, but I don't know what it is. Mu Fangjin recalled: "But I always feel that it should be something terrible to let Zhong Mo come to find it in person." ”
Xin Yi was aroused by these words: "What, it's terrible? Did you send someone to ask? Otherwise, if you really don't feel at ease, you can go to his house and have a look, and you should ...... Say goodbye to old age? ”
"Him?" Mu Fangjin shook his head helplessly: "Almost except for sleeping at home, he usually can't even catch a shadow, only he comes to find you, if you want to find him, I can't wait to turn the entire capital upside down." ”
As soon as he heard this, Xin Yi was really choked: "Then, why don't you ask Li Shen?" ”
"I have already sent someone to Li Shen's mansion......" Mu Fangjin explained: "We were not in Beijing a while ago, and Li Shen and Ah Mo can often meet in the capital, maybe there is something, Ah Mo will tell Li Shen first. ”
But Mu Fangjin's words had not yet fallen, but he saw Brother Xiaoqiang, Lin Qiang, the housekeeper of the East Mansion, hurriedly running over: "Childe, Lord Zhong Mo Zhong is here, and now he has invited in the door to wait in the living room." ”
Speak of the devil.
Xin Yi and he exchanged glances, and hurriedly led by Lin Qiang to the living room.
Pushing the door in, I saw the baby-faced man sitting next to him, still holding half a cup of tea in his hand. "You're too late." As soon as he saw Mu Fangjin coming, he first complained and said, "I want to come to you, how can I be so leisurely?" ”
Mu Fangjin pulled Xin Yi and sat down opposite him: "It seems that this matter is very important, and I want you to come to my house to inform you in person?" Mu Fangjin explained: "I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find you just now, so I specially sent someone to Li Shen's place, thinking that you would leave a message for him." ”
"Leave a message? It's avoidable. Zhong Mo pursed his lips, such a small action made him look more cute. Where are these things to say to that big mouth. ”
Li Shen, you seem to be disgusted......
