Chapter 257: Voyeurism
The back house of the good house, the boudoir of the good and gentle.
Shanrou sat in front of the dressing table, her pretty face was slightly red, with a shy and happy smile between her eyebrows, and a pair of big black eyes looked at herself in the mirror who was completely different from her usual life, and the personal maid on the side was carefully taking care of her makeup.
Shanrou rarely changed into a samurai outfit today, and wore a light blue brocade dress very rarely. The skirt is embroidered with white blooming plum blossoms, the cuffs are outlined with silver threads to outline a few auspicious clouds, and a white brocade belt binds her unbearable thin waist, which shows that the goodness and gentleness sitting obediently at the moment are particularly weak and beautiful.
The maid twisted Shanrou's black hair into a flying fairy bun, inserted a transparent plum blossom white hosta, and thinly applied powder to Shanrou's picturesque face.
Shanrou's face is already extremely beautiful, and her white skin is white and red, and at this moment she has changed into a completely different aristocratic lady dress than usual, and she has suddenly changed from the hot tomboy on weekdays to a lady with a light temperament!
The maidservant exclaimed: "Miss, it turns out that you dress up well, you will be as beautiful as a fairy, and you will not lose to those nobles in Linzi City at all!" ”
Shanrou sat for so long, she couldn't hold back for a long time, she winked playfully when she heard the words, and smiled proudly: "That's natural, your young lady and I were originally little fairies, okay!" ”
At this time, Shanrou's ears moved, and she heard an almost inaudible whisper from outside the door, guessing that it must be her two younger sisters, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook, and she deliberately coughed heavily.
Shanlan and Shanzhi outside the door were startled, and Shanrou immediately heard Shanzhi exclaim in a low voice, "Ah, it's not good, I was discovered by the eldest sister!" Second sister, let's run! ”
Shanrou was amused and laughed, and when she looked back, she saw that the door was empty, and the two younger sisters had already fled and ran away.
Shanzhi took Shanlan's hand, ran to the end of the corridor with a smoke, turned and leaned against the wall, glanced back quickly, and saw that Shanrou did not chase after her, so she stuck out her little tongue, looked at her second sister, and snickered: "Fortunately, I escaped, otherwise the eldest sister would be angry and angry, and she would have chased us out to clean us up!" ”
Shanlan didn't want to run, but was pulled by Shanzhi and ran all the way, stopped at this moment, held her waist panting, and wondered: "Little sister, what are you running?" Why is the eldest sister angry? ”
Shanzhi rolled her eyes, spit out her little tongue, and her white and tender little hands were horizontal on her neck, making a gesture to kill her mouth, with a funny face: "The eldest sister never wears makeup or dresses up on weekdays, and today we discovered her secret, she will kill people if she doesn't do it!" ”
Shanlan looked at her with a smile and a smile, and said angrily: "If the eldest sister knew that you were arranging her like this behind her back, she would definitely clean you up!" ”
Shanzhi took Shanlan's hand and said with a smile: "Second sister, the guests may have come, let's go and see the excitement now!" ”
Shanlan pinched Shanzhi's soft and cute little face dotingly, and said with a smile: "Little troublemaker, I'm really afraid of you!" ”
Shanlan and Shanzhi walked out of the building complex of the back house, passed through the back garden, and quietly came to the front yard, and saw the servants and maids passing by along the way, Shanzhi looked at them again and again, telling them to keep quiet.
The servants of the Shanfu obviously knew that this third lady was very naughty, and they all couldn't help laughing, and after quietly avoiding the salute, they obediently pretended not to see it.
In the main hall of the main house.
Shanlan and Shanzhi quietly slipped in from the back hall, and as soon as they hid behind the screen, they heard movement in the hall, and quickly covered each other's mouths and secretly looked out through the gap in the screen.
I saw that Uncle Shanqing introduced Xie Zhengqing's father and son and Pang Youniang into the hall, and said, "Everyone, wait a minute, my lord, he will be here soon." ”
Shanzhi looked at Ziyuan from the gap, so he pushed Shanlan on the side, and handed over a smug look, as if to say: I'll just say it, it's really him!
Shanlan hurriedly made a gesture to ask Shanzhi to be careful not to make a sound.
At this time, Shanqin's laughter came from outside the hall: "Brother Xie Xian, what kind of wind blew you here!" ”
Xie Zhengqing got up with a smile and said, "Little brother is uninvited, don't blame the good brother!" ”
Xie Ziyuan hurriedly stood up and saluted respectfully: "Ziyuan greets Uncle Shan!" ”
Pang Youniang was carrying a bar-headed goose in her hand, and she also saluted on the side: "The folk girl sees the good adult!" ”
The bar-headed goose found itself in the air again, fluttered in the package in a panic, and called out a "quack".
After some greetings, Shanqin beckoned everyone to sit down, and Xie Zhengqing said with a smile: "Good brother, in fact, the younger brother visited your mansion today because of a reluctant invitation!" ”
Shanqin glanced at the bar-headed goose in Pang Youniang's hand, remembered the report sent by Shanbo, and already knew it in his heart, secretly thinking about today's events, it was too coincidental, but he didn't show it on his face, and only smiled: "What is the relationship between our two families?" Brother Xie Xian doesn't have to be polite to me, but it's okay to say it! ”
Xie Zhengqing nodded, and his eyes gestured to Pang Youniang.
Pang Youniang hurriedly twisted her waist and stood up from her seat, pinched her rough voice and said with a flattering smile: "Lord Shan, the daughter Pang Youniang, the first matchmaker in Linzi, I am here to say goodbye to Lord Xie's son today, and the son of the Xie family sincerely asks to marry the girl of your house, I don't know what Lord Shan's intentions are?" ”
Shanqin couldn't help muttering in his heart, yesterday there was the first matchmaker in Linzi City, and today there was the first matchmaker in Linzi City, are the current matchmakers so high-profile?
Shanqin groaned slightly, and in the anxious eyes of Shanbo on the side, he said: "Brother Xie Xian, with the friendship between you and my two families, you come to propose marriage to me, I am naturally very willing to marry my daughter to your Xie family, and now my second daughter and youngest daughter have not yet allowed anyone, it depends on whether Ziyuan likes Lan'er or Zhi'er!" ”
Uncle Shanbo breathed a sigh of relief and secretly praised the master's cleverness!
Shanlan and Shanzhi behind the screen were taken aback, they both covered their mouths, and they both blushed, Shanzhi couldn't help but rush out, and was quickly pulled by Shanlan on the side, Shanlan shook her head anxiously at Shanzhi, signaling her not to be impulsive, to see the situation first!
As soon as these words came out, Xie Ziyuan suddenly blushed, and he was about to ask a question, when he heard the sound of the little guy's report outside--
"Master, someone from Qi Mansion is here!"
Shanqin felt a little sorry in his heart, but he could only look at Xie Zhengqing hard, smiled reluctantly, and said: "Haha, it's really a double happiness, the matchmaker who just agreed to the invitation of the big secretary yesterday accepted the gift of Nacai, and wanted to marry the eldest daughter to the Qi family, and today I will marry your family, Brother Xie Xian will stay here for a while, I will go out to greet the big secretary, and we will be a family in the future!" ”
Shanqin's words can be regarded as an explanation in disguise, saying that Shanfu has received tokens, and there is really no other way to be a man!
Although Xie Zhengqing was very surprised, his complexion quickly returned to normal, knowing that the matter had come to this point, he could not blame Shanqin for agreeing to the Qi family's marriage proposal, but he could only blame himself for being one step later than the Qi family.
Xie Ziyuan was shocked, and he almost fainted, he really couldn't figure out why it was Qi Yu's good thing to spoil him every time!
Xie Zhengqing grabbed Xie Ziyuan, who was lost and depressed, and almost couldn't hold it back, and said with a smile: "I'll go with my good brother to meet Da Sixing!" ”
Xie Ziyuan's face changed, secretly hating why he didn't invite his father to come to the door earlier, and hated Lu Yunzhou for robbing him of Shanrou, thinking about it, gritted his teeth and said: "Father, I want to go too!" ”
Xie Zhengqing stared at him sternly, did not speak, and stood up.
There was a drizzle outside the house, and Shanqin told Shanbo to bring an umbrella, and everyone in the hall went out.
As soon as the people in the hall left, Shanzhi couldn't help it, and immediately broke Shanlan's hand away, and said aggrievedly: "Second sister, what's going on?" Isn't the eldest sister going to get married? How did it become the two of us again! I...... I don't want to get married yet! ”
Shanlan said thoughtfully: "It turns out that the person who came to propose marriage yesterday was not the Xie family, but the Qi family, it seems that the person the eldest sister likes in her heart is not Ziyuan, but I don't know which son of the Qi family this person is?" ”
Shanzhi pouted depressedly: "Second sister, what should we do?" Do you want to marry Brother Ziyuan? ”
Shanlan was also at a loss, and said helplessly: "Ziyuan has always liked the eldest sister, and we both just regard him as friends...... I don't want to marry him either......"
Shanzhi grabbed Shanlan's hand and said, "Second sister, let's go out and see the situation!" ”
Shanlan couldn't resist her, so she had to follow Shanzhi out of the main hall, quickly ran through the corridor, got into the front hall, and looked out through the door of the front hall.
In the drizzle, they saw a pair of strange fathers and sons getting off the carriage one after another, standing in the courtyard, and the servants who followed moved down a lot of gifts from the carriage behind, presumably the father and son of the Qi family.
Shanqin reconciled Zhengqing and others to greet them, and the two sides exchanged pleasantries in the courtyard for a while.
"Second sister, that brother of the Qi family is so handsome, he is even better looking than a girl, I have never seen someone so good-looking, no wonder the eldest sister likes him!"
Kindly looked curiously at the strange boy holding an umbrella in the rain.
Shanlan nodded in agreement and said, "Seeing that he is not very old, could it be that he is the rumored third son of Qi?" ”
Shanzhi smiled and said: "This Qi Gongzi is so tall, let's stand with him, we can only go to his waist!" ”
Shanlan was unconvinced: "It's you who go to the waist, and I must be to the chest!" ”
Shanzhi smiled evilly: "It turns out that the second sister wants to lean on the chest of the son of the Qi family!" ”
Shanlan's face turned red, and she was about to fight: "What nonsense!" I mean I'm taller than you, this Qi Gongzi is the future husband of the eldest sister, I don't want to! It's you, a little ghost, at a young age, you are moved when you see Brother Jun, right? ”
Stomped his feet angrily, and said, "No, the second sister is talking nonsense!" ”
The two were secretly laughing behind the door, when they saw the young man's eyes looking in the direction of the front hall, eye contact, the young man smiled narrowly, and winked at them, Shanlan and Shanzhi were startled, and quickly hid behind the door, not daring to probe.
"Second sister, it's too bad, we were discovered, what should we do?" Shanzhi blushed, feeling that at the moment of looking at each other, his heart was beating so fast!
Shanlan also blushed a little, and said weakly: "Does that Qi Gongzi have tailwind ears?" How can you find us so far away? He...... I don't think I told my father that we were peeking! ”
Shanzhi was so frightened that his little face turned white, and he hurriedly became bold again, and came to the door to observe, and saw that there was no major movement outside, they were still saying this, and whispered in disbelief: "Second sister, he doesn't seem to have demolished us!" ”
Shanlan also came to the door, and when she saw the young man, her face was still a little red.
Lu Yunzhou held an umbrella and stood in the courtyard, smiling secretly in his heart, he didn't expect that Shanlan, who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and Zhao Zhi, who was cold and cold, would be so naughty when they were young.
Then I thought that the current Zhao Zhi should still be called Shanzhi, right!
Lu Yunzhou secretly thought that as long as he married Shanrou, even if Tian Dan looked at the face of the Qi family, it would be impossible to attack the good family easily, and the good family would avoid the disaster of annihilation, and these two little girls would always be able to maintain their innocent and lively appearance.
Thinking of this, Lu Yunzhou couldn't help but wink at them and smiled happily.
The two girls were startled by Lu Yunzhou again, and they hid behind the door with a red face.
When Lu Yunzhou was thinking it was interesting, he listened to Shanqin say: "Today, the two families came to my Shan's house at the same time to propose marriage, Shanmou is really honored, after today, everyone will be in-laws, let's go into the house and talk!" Everyone, please! ”
Xie Ziyuan on the side stared at Lu Yunzhou deadly, his eyes were about to breathe fire, seeing that this matter was about to become a foregone conclusion, he finally couldn't hold it back, and suddenly said: "Uncle Shan, don't hide it, what Ziyuan really wants to ask for is Sister Rou, and please let Uncle Good fulfill it!" ”
