The main courtyard of the Lee Mansion.

Li Pei has been circling in the courtyard with some guests, his gentle face has fine beads of sweat, and his voice has become a little hoarse, he has been busy since the morning to now, although his body is tired and tired, but he has no intention of leaving from beginning to end, because he has not seen her, the shadow that he has been thinking about for the past few days.

'Crackling——! The sound of firecrackers sounded, muffling out the sound of the guests talking in the courtyard, and everyone stopped talking and looked towards the firecrackers, all with friendly smiles on their faces.

After the sound of firecrackers, with the smoke slowly dissipating, the group walked into the courtyard of the front hall, when Li Pei's eyes finally fell on the veiled person next to Nian Gengrong, it seemed that the fatigue of the day disappeared in an instant, leaving only the joy of anticipation, he didn't understand what this feeling was, but he felt inexplicably relieved.

When the other guests saw Li Liansheng walk in, they tacitly walked into their places in the front hall, waiting for the opening of the table for a while.

Entering the front hall, Li Liansheng led Xuan Yuchen and Yu Shulan to the main seat, while Li Pei first led Nian Gengrong to the position of other officials, and then took Nian Yingchun and Nian Yingxi to the family seat on the other side.

From the moment Nian Yingchun saw Li Pei, her heart and eyes were all glued to him, and when she saw Li Pei leading her towards the family seat, she was even more full of joy, all because Li Pei was ready to marry her.

Nian Yingxi kept looking around in the front hall, and it wasn't until she saw the second young master Li who was covered in cold air on the family seat that her lips under the veil showed a satisfied smile.

Don't ask her how she recognized this Second Young Master Li, it is really that this Second Young Master Li looks too similar to Li Liansheng, it is like carved out of a mold, especially the high and raised cheekbones, which are even more vivid like a person.

looked at Li Pei beside him, and then looked at the second young master who looked like an ice mound, and even Nian Yingxi couldn't help but want to ask, obviously he is a father, why is there such a big gap?

"Are you the third young lady?" Li Xiang, the second young master of the Li family, made a preemptive strike, with a cold face, and had no intention of being polite at all.

Nian Yingxi shook her head and stretched out a finger to point at someone who was still gluing her eyes to Li Pei.

Nian Yingchun now has no one else in her eyes except Li Pei, she pulled Li Pei's sleeve flatteringly, and pinched her throat shyly, "Does Gongzi Li want to sit with us?" I didn't even notice that there was a Li Xiang sitting on the edge of the table.

"Naturally, I'm going to sit here." Li Pei nodded with a smile, and took a slight step behind him, silently distancing himself from Nian Yingchun.

When Nian Yingchun heard that Li Pei was also sitting here, she happily sat down first, and hurriedly pointed to her side, "Is it okay for Li Gongzi to sit here?" ”

"Your eyes are on your ass? Don't see anyone in this place? Li Xiang glared angrily and snorted coldly.

He was very surprised when he began to receive Nian Yingchun's letter, and when he opened it, he was furious, he had never seen such a blatant woman, the whole letter was either flattering everywhere, or exaggerated expressions of love, it was simply vulgar, I didn't expect such an unbearable woman not only to give herself a private love letter, but also to her brother to flatter her.

Touching his bulging cheekbones, Li Xianghu wondered, is this disgusting that he doesn't have a handsome face as his brother? That's why I temporarily hugged my brother's Buddha's feet?

Nian Yingxi didn't expect this second son Li to be so venomous, his eyebrows were raised, and the corners of his lips were smiling, it is estimated that there is a good show to watch this time.

Nian Yingchun was startled by this sudden voice, patted her chest and looked sideways, only then did she see Li Xiang with an angry face, if it was usual, she would have been angered by Li Xiang's words, but now that Li Pei was present, she didn't say much, she just smiled apologetically, and then turned her eyes back again, and was about to open her mouth to let Li Pei sit on the other side of her, but she didn't expect Li Pei to walk opposite her and sit next to Nian Yingxi.

"What is the second lady laughing at?"

A soft question came from the side, Nian Yingxi looked sideways in surprise, only then did she find that Li Pei was sitting next to her, and she didn't want to be stirred into this muddy water, she was a little unhappy, but when she was injured, the bottle of ointment that Li Pei brought still replied lightly, "It's nothing, it's just that I always stay in the house, I haven't seen such a lively scene for a long time." ”

Li Pei has always known that Nian Yingxi is not favored, but now when she heard her say this, her heart softened, and she said softly, "If the second miss likes to be lively, why don't I take the second miss to the temple fair in a few days?" ”

Nian Yingxi was stunned for a moment, and before she could say no, she heard a sour voice coming over, "My sister's mind is good and bad, and she can't go out." After Nian Yingchun finished speaking, she gritted her teeth and glared at Nian Yingxi, wishing that the words she had just said were all with knives, and she was directly killed on the spot.

"Are you educated? They didn't ask you! Li Xiang squinted at Nian Yingchun with cold eyes, and spit on the ground very facelessly, "I really don't know how your mother taught you." ”

Nian Ying was happy to see that Li Xiang was targeting Nian Yingchun everywhere, and said in her heart: This Li Xiang must have received those love letters, otherwise he would not have seen Nian Yingchun flattering Li Pei with such cold words, it is estimated that she is a woman who regards Nian Yingchun as a water-based poplar flower in her heart.

Lowering her eyes and picking up the teacup in front of her, Nian Yingxi blew the broken foam on the tea unhurriedly, since someone came out to find trouble, she also ended up idle, and occasionally looked at the excitement, it seemed that it was not bad.

Nian Yingchun didn't recognize Li Xiang at all, seeing that Li Xiang always couldn't get along with herself, she couldn't bear it at the moment, and the eldest lady's temper also came up, "Which onion are you?" Why are you everywhere? ”

Li Xiang sneered and pursed the corners of his mouth very sarcastically, "I'm sorry, which green onion am I, it's not your turn to ask." ”

Nian Yingchun's face was a little unbearable, her face, which was still pink just now, was already flushed with anger, Li Pei saw that things froze, and was about to get up to persuade him, but he didn't want to get up before he got up, Nian Yingchun suddenly couldn't get angry and slapped him on the table.

Nian Yingxi, who was leisurely waiting for the opportunity, aimed at this opportunity, and at the moment when Nian Yingchun slapped his hand on the table, he put his palm under the table, secretly forced, and hit the back of the table in the opposite direction, and saw that the round table that could accommodate ten people cracked a gap, and then withdrew his hand with satisfaction.

Nian Yingchun actually just wanted to slap the table and get up and leave, but she didn't expect that at the same time as she stood up, the table that had just been fine became two halves in an instant, not only the dishes on the table were smashed, but the huge noise shocked countless eyes around her, and they all shot on her body.

"Isn't this the third lady of the Nian family? I didn't expect that I usually look delicate and weak, but I have such a big brute force, who would dare to marry back such a woman! ”

"It's not just brute force, but in my opinion, it's also a problem."

Nian Yingchun has always been lawless by An Zhimei, and she has long been used to being proud of no one, but now in the face of the whispering comments around her, where can she bear it? After snorting and sobbing for a long time, he immediately cried uncontrollably, and threw the fire in his stomach on Li Pei's body, "Li Pei, what do you mean?" I said I was going to marry me, but now I'm standing aside and watching me laugh! Woowoo woo ......"

Li Pei was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Nian Yingchun say this, his father and Nian Gengrong also walked over from the crowd, and quickly got up and explained, "When did I say this?" ”

"I've been sending people to send you letters, but you haven't refused, and you still say that you don't want to marry me?"

Li Liansheng, who came over, heard this, and hurriedly asked his son, "Is this really the case?" He likes Nian Yingxi, but he is afraid that his son will be clumsy for a while and look at the vase of Nian Yingchun.

Li Pei naturally knew the seriousness of the gaffe, and hurriedly explained clearly, "My son has received a letter, but this is only one, I thought it was sent by mistake." ”

"Impossible!" Nian Yingchun was determined.

Nian Gengrong wrung his eyebrows and looked at this farce, and calculated in his heart, the last time Xuan Yining revealed the meaning of the election, which made him uneasy, originally he wanted to take this opportunity to talk to Li Liansheng today, to see if he could marry Li Liansheng, so that Nian Yingchun could marry Li Pei, and win over Li Liansheng is small, blocking the holy decree is true, if the holy decree after the seal is really selected Nian Yingchun, then he will really lose a daughter.

He knows Nian Yingchun very well, although he is usually a little rude, but she doesn't dare to talk nonsense about such a big thing, now that the opportunity is rare, and it is in line with his heart, how can he miss it? immediately pretended to be angry and snorted, "If things are really as the little girl said, Boss Li will definitely give an explanation to Nian!" His so-called confession is naturally to let Li Pei marry Nian Yingxi.

Xuan Yuchen saw that things were not good, so he quickly got up and hid out under the pretext of going to the thatched house, this side was Li Liansheng, who had some money dealings with him, and the other side was Nian Gengrong, who had some close ties with him, in case someone asked him for his opinion, it was not appropriate for him to really help either side.

Yu Shulan drank the tea in front of her boredly, and did not look forward to the outcome of the matter, in her opinion, no matter whether Nian Yingchun married into the Li family or not, she did not plan to have any contact with her in the future, such a stupid and unmeasured person, she naturally had no need to deal with it anymore.

The matter is getting bigger and bigger, and Li Liansheng doesn't know how to answer, his head is full of beads of sweat, and he stands in the middle in a dilemma.

He has always believed in his eldest son's character, but now that Nian Yingchun also said that he has a nose and eyes, this matter has really become an oolong formation, and he can't take out one side to torture him......

Nian Yingxi, who was standing on the side with cold eyes, was looking hard, and suddenly felt a penetrating line of sight behind her, and turned her head suddenly, and actually met a pair of eyes that were looking at her not far away, and the owner of these eyes, although she was not familiar with it, she also recognized that it was Xuanyuehuai, the prince of Pinghu, who came to visit her relatives in the New Year's Mansion that day.
