Zhou Xianglian immediately shook her head and refused.

"No, no matter what, I'm Miss Hou Mansion's cousin, how can I be a roommate?"

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was impossible, "Moreover, my aunt and my family will not agree, no." ”

But the more she reacted, the more it showed that she was tempted.

Liu Mianmian hooked her lips quietly, "Also, if Sister Xianglian is unwilling, I won't say it." ”

She then asked curiously, "But Sister Xianglian is also almost old enough to leave the cabinet, is she leaving the Hou Mansion?" ”

Zhou Xianglian's face turned a little pale.

Although she is only a cousin, her life in the Hou Mansion is better than that of the most noble lady in her hometown.

Liu Mianmian asked again, "Can the family help you find a suitable candidate?" ”

Zhou Xianglian shook her head, "I don't know." ”

Once again, her heart faltered.

Liu Mianmian made persistent efforts, "It's quite bitter to say, if you marry someone you haven't seen at all, I don't know what it will be like." ”

She said with some envy, "The people in Kyoto who want to marry Brother Ruiqing have broken the threshold, and Brother Ruiqing has a good family background and no character, let alone the main house, even the side room and the general room are also blessed people." ”

Zhou Xianglian nodded, she had been with Liu Mianmian for so long, and she also understood what Liu Mianmian meant at this time.

She thought about it for a while, and then asked with some expectation, "Does it have to be a room?" Isn't it okay to have a side room? ”

can marry Jiang Ruiqing as a side room, this is what she wants most.

Liu Mianmian naturally understands, but she may not be able to marry Yan Shizi as the main house as she wishes, why should she fulfill Zhou Xianglian?

She immediately shook her head, "No, my aunt plans to ask for a princess for her eldest brother, if she marries the side room first, I'm afraid that people will be unhappy." ”

"Princess?" Zhou Xianglian smiled bitterly with some envy, "Also, Young Master Ruiqing should marry a princess." ”

She stood up and said with some distraction, "Sister Mianmian, I understand what you mean, but this is not a trivial matter, you let me go back and think about it." ”

"Okay, Sister Xianglian, Mianmian is also good for you." Liu Mianmian said hypocritically, "If you become a room, with the character of the eldest brother, I will definitely carry you to be a side room in the future, and you only need to be wronged for the time being." ”

Zhou Xianglian looked at Liu Mianmian again and again, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?

Even if Jiang Ruiqing is willing, what about Liu Ruyan? Will she be able to agree?

She didn't say anything for a long time, and after saying goodbye to Liu Mianmian, she left.

Seeing this, the newcomer Yahuan Cui'er said, "Miss, do you think Miss Cousin will be willing?" ”

"Of course." Liu Mianmian is confident.

Zhou Xianglian has liked Jiang Ruiqing for so many years, and she will definitely seize such an opportunity.

She took a sip of tea happily, but in fact, she didn't care about Jiang Ruiqing's family affairs.

But if Zhou Xianglian followed Jiang Ruiqing and became half of Jiang Yingning's sister-in-law, then Jiang Yingning would definitely be very unhappy!

Liu Mianmian is happy when she thinks about it, and she is happy to do anything that can block Jiang Yingning.

"Miss is really amazing, to be able to help the eldest young master marry such a high-status room, the Hou Mansion must be happy." Cui'er said flatteringly.

She originally served in Jinhuatang, but after the pearl died, Liu Ruyan gave her to Liu Mianmian.

She then asked, "By the way, Miss, will you go to the countryside with them tomorrow?" ”

"Don't go!" Liu Mianmian said with a disgusted face, "The village hooligans and wild men just went to the suburbs, let them go." ”

She remembered something, and said with a smile, "Let's go to the palace tomorrow, Brother Shizi must miss me." ”

Zhou Xianglian returned to Lanyue Pavilion with a reluctant soul, and it happened that Zhou Wenzhuo was embroidering things.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Wenzhuo is a careful woman, and she can see at a glance that something is wrong with Zhou Xianglian.

"Nothing." Zhou Xianglian sat next to Zhou Wenzhuo, thought about it, and asked tentatively, "Auntie, Xianglian is almost old enough to leave the cabinet." ”

"Yes." Zhou Wenzhuo nodded and continued to work on the things in his hand, "I'll send a letter to my family in a few days and ask them to send someone to pick you up." ”

Zhou Xianglian's eyes immediately turned red, "Auntie, you don't like me so much?" ”

Zhou Wenzhuo raised his head and looked at Zhou Xianglian with some puzzlement, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Zhou Xianglian bit her lip silently, and said after a while, "Didn't my aunt think about finding a good family for Xianglian in Kyoto and letting Xianglian stay by your side?" ”

Zhou Wenzhuo retracted his gaze and said lightly, "It's enough for me to have Ruiming and Ruixing by my side, there are too many children, and I don't have time to take care of them." ”

One sentence made Zhou Xianglian's heart fall to the bottom, she shouldn't have opened this mouth in the first place.

She stood up and staggered back.

Seeing this, Zhou Wenzhuo stopped what he was doing, and said to Zhou Xianglian's back, "If you didn't listen to my persuasion at the beginning, if you had to get together with Liu Mianmian, you should have known that there would be such a day." ”

Zhou Xianglian stopped, turned her head and said a little angrily, "Aunt is really interesting, is it possible that I follow Jiang Yingning, will Jiang Yingning find a good family affair for me?" ”

Zhou Wenzhuo didn't speak.

Zhou Xianglian suddenly smiled again, "Auntie, Xianglian's choice is not wrong, Xianglian has never regretted it, I will not leave Kyoto, nor will I leave the Hou Mansion." ”

She turned around and continued to walk inside, having already made up her mind in her heart, "I will marry Jiang Ruiqing." ”

Whatever way, at least, she married her beloved.

Zhou Wenzhuo didn't believe what he heard, stood up and asked, "What?" Who do you say you're going to marry? ”

However, Zhou Xianglian has quickly disappeared and has not answered her question.

Zhou Wenzhuo sat down suspiciously, she felt that she should have heard it wrong.

Liu Mianmian got Zhou Xianglian's reply in the evening, and she immediately happily went to tell Liu Ruyan, "Auntie, Zhou Xianglian agreed." ”

"Really?" Liu Ruyan was a little surprised, the Zhou family is all academic, and their personalities are noble.

is like Zhou Wenzhuo, who married into the Hou Mansion, but never deliberately tried to please anyone, and acted according to his own preferences.

She asked in disbelief, "The third lady agreed?" ”

Liu Mianmian shook her head honestly, "I don't know, anyway, Zhou Xianglian said that she would go back and think about it, and then told me that she had figured it out." ”

Liu Ruyan nodded with satisfaction, "This thing is good, I will go to Shou'an Hall tonight and discuss with the old lady." ”

Hearing this, Liu Mianmian deliberately asked, "Don't you need to say hello to the eldest brother?" ”

"It's just a room, can't I, a mother, be the master of this little thing?" Liu Ruyan was faintly excited.

Zhou Xianglian married her son as a roommate, can Zhou Wenzhuo still raise his head in front of her?

It's happy to think about it, and she can't wait to go to Shou'an Hall.

During dinner, Mama Liu came to invite Jiang Yingning, saying that the old lady asked her to accompany her to dinner.

Jiang Yingning went over with Pan Qiaoxi, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw that Liu Ruyan had also come.
