While speaking, Duan Qingming and Xue Ninglan had already walked over hand in hand.

Seeing Xue Zixuan sitting there, Xue Ninglan hurriedly shouted: "Big brother...... If you don't come, I'd like to finish dinner here at Qingming and go back! ”

Duan Qingming smiled: "You can stay here as long as you want." Didn't say I wouldn't let you go with dinner! ”

Xue Ninglan was originally happy, but when she saw that Duan Zheng and Du Qingluan were actually there, her face turned red all of a sudden, and after a long time, she tightened Duan Qingming's hand and said in a low voice: "Am I embarrassed again just now?" ”

There is no reserve in front of the future in-laws, and for this alone, Xue Ninglan will be reprimanded!

Duan Qingming listened, and said with a smile: "Do you know that you are embarrassed now?" Who just screamed louder than I did? ”

When Xue Ninglan heard this, she immediately collapsed her face, twisted her body, and didn't dare to speak!

Duan Qingming pushed Xue Ninglan and said with a smile: "Okay, you don't have to be cowardly." In my house, there are not as many rules as in your house......"

Duan Qingming said as she pulled Xue Ninglan to greet Duan Zheng and Du Qingluan. Although Xue Ninglan has a straightforward personality, she is also everyone's woman, so this etiquette is straightforward and unambiguous!

Seeing Xue Ninglan, she still looked awkward. Duan Zheng smiled and said, "Xue Yatou has a straightforward personality and is not pretentious, Qingming, you can learn more!" ”

When Duan Qingming heard this, he quit. She ran to Du Qingluan and complained: "Mother, take a look, my father has a daughter-in-law, so he doesn't want a daughter!" ”

Duan Zheng smiled "hehe", as if he didn't know how to coax Duan Qingming, so he simply stopped talking!

Du Qingluan beckoned, asked Xue Ninglan to come over, and said: "To be honest, I really like Xue Yatou's personality, Qingming, you are sometimes too old-fashioned, so you really have to learn from Xue Yatou!" ”

Duan Qingming listened, stomped his feet, and said angrily: "I said that my father and mother were partial, but you don't have to do everything in person, right?" ”

Everyone laughed. And Xue Zixuan saw Xue Ninglan coming, and he also used the excuse that there was something in the mansion as an excuse, and was ready to take Xue Ninglan away!

Seeing that Xue Ninglan was about to leave, Du Qingluan was faintly reluctant, she took Xue Ninglan's hand and went to the side to say something considerate, Duan Zheng on one side looked at it with a smile, and interjected a sentence or two from time to time, sometimes, if he said something wrong, he would be disgusted by Du Qingluan for a few words, Duan Zheng didn't think it was angry, and he wouldn't put on the appearance of a big parent, he just laughed at it, let alone argued!

Here, Xue Zixuan threw a look at Duan Qingming.

Duan Qingming understood, and said to Xue Ninglan: "Ninglan, please accompany my father and mother here, I left something, just come when I go!" ”

Xue Ninglan wanted to keep Duan Qingming, but she had already gone quickly, and Xue Zixuan on the side also took the opportunity to walk out. The two walked to the pavilion in front and sat down. Duan Qingming looked at Xue Zixuan and said, "Xue Gongzi, there are no outsiders here, if there is anything, just say it!" ”

Xue Zixuan looked at Duan Qingming, his eyes were a little complicated!

He had heard everything that had happened in the court a few days ago. Now the identity is different, and the etiquette cannot be abolished. So, Xue Zixuan bowed his head and bowed: "Student Xue Zixuan, I've seen Princess Heshuo!" ”

Duan Qingming stretched out his hand to stop him, but he stretched out halfway, but he shrank back again!

Whether she wants to admit it or not, her identity is no longer what it used to be. From now on, the distance between her and the people around her has been gradually widened, and it will never be the same again!

Xue Zixuan finished his worship and stood in front of Duan Qingming!

Duan Qingming pointed to the stone bench on the side and said, "Xue Gongzi, if there is anything, just tell me quickly, we have been out for too long, I am afraid that Ning Lan will be suspicious!" ”

Xue Ninglan just has a simple personality, but she is not stupid. Duan Qingming is gone, her brother is also gone, she doesn't have to think about it, something must have happened, and she must not want to let herself know!

And there are really not many things that I don't want Xue Ninglan to know. For example, someone went to Xue Mansion to propose relatives again, and for example, about Duan Yu!

Xue Zixuan also knew that her sister had become much more sensitive, and if she had been out for a long time, she would really be suspicious!

Thinking of this, Xue Zixuan said, "Then the student will make a long story short...... A few days ago, Shi Fu went to my Xue Mansion to propose marriage, and my father was very angry and refused without thinking about it...... Originally, the student didn't know about this matter, but the mother mentioned it today, and the student was surprised! ”

When Duan Qingming heard this, he was also taken aback: "Is it actually Shi Fu...... So, do you know which son of Shifu is it? ”

Shifu, that is, the maiden home of the Queen Mother and the Empress.

In the queen's generation, she had a total of three sons.

The eldest son Shi Du, the second son Shi Yi, and the third son Shi Yu.

It's just that I don't know, which one is this one who proposes to Xue Fu?

Xue Zixuan said: "Mother said it, it's the second son of the official of the Ministry of Officials!" ”

When Duan Qingming heard this, he thought about it sideways and said, "Are you talking about the history articles that ranked tenth in this autumn exam?" ”

In the Shifu, they have always been famous families in the capital, and they think very highly of themselves, so the relationship with other famous families is not very good. But now, it is an extraordinary period, but Shi Fu still has time to propose marriage to Xue Mansion, does this indicate that they want to get something like an alliance?

Xue Zixuan nodded and said: "Yes, it is that history article-that history article, the student has seen it, and the character is not bad, but it is a little cynical, a typical literati's lofty aura!" ”

Duan Qingming said in her heart, no matter what this historical article is, you can't let Ning Lan marry it? However, when Duan Yu was leaving, he clearly explained that no matter who went to the Xue Mansion to propose marriage, the people of the Xue Mansion should not refuse, but should be false and wrong, and try to deal with it as much as possible!

Thinking of this, Duan Qingming sighed slightly and said, "Ning Lan doesn't know about this yet, doesn't she?" Just now, Duan Qingming also asked Xue Ninglan this question, and Xue Ninglan's answer was "No!" "Well, it's enough to prove that she didn't know about it at all!

Xue Zixuan shook his head and said, "My father refused without hesitation, and my mother also thought it wasn't a big deal, so only the students knew about this matter, and the younger brother didn't know about it!" ”

Duan Qingming looked at Xue Zixuan and said, "You're right. Don't tell Ning Lan about this for the time being, and don't tell anyone else. According to my estimate, if the people of the Shi Mansion are interested in marrying the Xue Mansion, this matter is just the beginning. Next, they will definitely have the following, and in the next two days, I will ask someone to inquire and see what they want to do in the Shi Mansion. When you go back, you also tell Mrs. Xue euphemistically, asking her to persuade Lord Xue that next time there is such a thing, just be false and wrong, and don't refuse in one go, so as not to offend those people who don't need to be offended! ”

That being said, it's not easy to grasp!

Now, the reason why Xue Yongqiang rejected Shi Fu is that Yan Lingyu said that he wanted the emperor to marry and give Ning Lan enough dignity. Moreover, Xue Mansion is the pillar of the clear stream, and it has always been praised as Qinggao, so Xue Yongqiang is not too disdainful of people like Shifu who rely on the support of the queen and the queen mother!

However, if Mrs. Xue was comforted, Xue Yongqiang changed his mind again and really planned to marry the Shi family, then things would be really troublesome!

Thinking of this, Duan Qingming suddenly smiled slightly and said, "Xue Gongzi, I have a suggestion, I don't know if you are willing to listen to it?" ”

Xue Zixuan also felt just now that although Duan Qingming's suggestion was feasible, the problem was that it was really difficult to grasp the severity, and if Xue Yongqiang really made it true, wouldn't it be even more troublesome at that time?

Thinking of this, Xue Zixuan said: "Please also ask the princess to give advice!" ”

Duan Qingming said with a smile: "The matter is very simple, you just let Mrs. Xue state the powerful relationship of the matter, don't refuse at once." And on the other hand...... Isn't the second aunt in your house very favored? Think about it, Ning Lan is about to marry the queen's nephew...... What would she think? ”

folded a third aunt, but there is also a long-sleeved second aunt who is good at dancing in the house. Although Mrs. Xue is now favored by her husband and can be on an equal footing with her, Xue Yongqiang, who has very soft ears, is often swayed by her!

The second aunt has a daughter, named Xue Ningqian. She must really want her daughter to marry the queen's mother's family, right?

Duan Qingming meant that she naturally didn't want Xue Ningqian to marry Shi Wen, and the other party didn't bother to marry a concubine from Xue Mansion. It's just that if you want the second aunt to stir it up, don't let Xue Yongqiang really want to marry the Shi family, and just marry Xue Ninglan to the Shi family!

Xue Zixuan listened, and his face flushed slightly: "This matter...... Is it possible? ”

For the sake of his sister, he actually wants to find an aunt, I can't say, this is really not Xue Zixuan's style of acting!

As soon as Duan Qingming saw Xue Zixuan's appearance, he knew that he had misunderstood. Duan Qingming smiled slightly and said, "Who let you go...... You just need to send a small servant to spread the word about this matter, and I'm sure the second aunt will get the news soon! ”

The second aunt has been favored for so many years, so she naturally has her skills and reason. Duan Qingming believes that in this matter, the second aunt of the Xue Mansion will definitely be able to help Xue Ninglan!

Duan Qingming looked at Xue Zixuan's sudden realization, and said: "Also, Shi Fu has not succeeded in proposing marriage this time, and he will definitely come to the door again, so when the time comes, Uncle Xue will naturally know what to do!" ”

Xue Zixuan nodded, let out a long breath, and said, "The students also feel that if they are interested in the Xue Mansion and Ning Lan, they will definitely not give up. Therefore, I came to pick up the second sister today, just to tell the princess about this, and I hope that the people of Xue Mansion can survive this catastrophe safely! ”
