With Liu's advice, this matter is much easier.

In order to appear solemn, the matter of proposing marriage still has to be done by the matchmaker in the capital, but when the woman agrees, after exchanging the eight characters of the birthday, Liu Yidao will go to the door as Hong Fang's uncle and Bai Shou to send the dowry gift.

Jiang Fenghao's release slip was not obtained, all the silver was hung in the bank, Hong Fang now only has a dozen taels of silver on his living expenses, and He Xiaoqiao looked shabby for him.

In order to prevent Yinhua from becoming a poor egg as soon as he got married, He Xiaoqiao had to tell him to keep the silver for self-defense, pay the matchmaker himself, and let the matchmaker help him buy the most suitable gift to Yihong Courtyard to propose marriage.

Hong Fang has been moved to tears by this matter, patted his chest and promised that if He Xiaoqiao is in need in the future, he will also help him go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire.

The sincerity of her feelings made He Xiaoqiao more and more embarrassed, in addition to really treating Hong Fang as a brother, she actually wanted to help Jiang Fenghao alleviate some of her sins - hiding all other people's money and not taking it, which is too cheap.

As soon as the money was received, the matchmaker, who had already understood the general situation of the two parties, immediately waved the handkerchief happily, and dutifully took the gift to Yihong Courtyard to find Chun Thirteen Niang.

Hong Fang specially took a day off, and waited for the matchmaker to talk back and forth with He Xiaoqiao in the palace, so nervous that the muscles of his whole body were so stiff that he was directly petrified.

He Xiaoqiao had to let Bai beat him to death first, and then stuffed him with a plate of braised pork for him to hold after he sobered up, "You can do it, okay, don't torture me, okay?" You're not too tired to panic all the time, everyone in this room is dizzy! ”

"My subordinates are just a little nervous,......" Hong Fang rubbed the corners of his bruised mouth with his hand, happily took the chopsticks and stuffed the braised pork into his mouth, smiling as if the wound on his face was not painful at all.

Seeing that He Xiaoqiao and the two maids couldn't help but feel a toothache.

Soon after eating at noon, Liu Yidao finally came over slowly on crutches.

Hong Fang didn't say a word, went up to help someone and sat on the chair, and poured tea and water with a shy face, absolutely doglegs.

"Uncle Liu, what's going on?"

Liu took a sip of tea, put his hand on the lid of the cup, and sighed heavily.

When the people in the room saw this, their smiling faces instantly disappeared, and Hong Fang was even more nervous, "Uncle Liu, what's the matter...... What's wrong? Honeysuckle is she ...... Isn't it ......"

The rest is out of words.

A dignified eight-foot man, if he doesn't really like Yinhua, how can he panic like this for a little thing?

"You calm down first and listen to Uncle Liu."

He Xiaoqiao glanced at Bai Shou, who immediately stepped forward and dragged Hong Fang to the chair and pressed him down, his eyes were full of hatred for iron and steel, "Things haven't reached a point yet, what are you afraid of?" "It's not in vain!

Hong Fang blinked, finally calmed down, wanted to laugh but pulled his mouth crookedly, and the glared Liu slapped the back of his head before he returned to his original stupid appearance, "I haven't even said what happened, you are nervous!" ”

With He Xiaoqiao taking the lead, the room full of people immediately laughed.

He Xiaoqiao looked at Liu Yidao with a smile, "Uncle Liu, you can tell me what's going on first, otherwise Hong Fang may not be able to eat today." ”

Liu Yidao snorted, and when he looked at Hong Fang again, he was a little helpless, "I heard that the matchmaker said that Thirteen Niang was originally very happy that someone went to propose marriage to her niece, but after asking that it was you, she hesitated and refused to agree." ”

Yes?

The people in the room all looked at each other, and Hong Fang was stunned, swallowing a mouthful of saliva with difficulty before saying, "How can this be...... Yinhua clearly said that if I go to propose, Thirteen Niang will definitely not obstruct it, how can it be ......"

"Then we'll have to see what good things you've done!" Liu Yidao glanced at the three people in the room who were always running out angrily, and during this period, he especially patronized He Xiaoqiao, and saw the latter with a weak face, and hurriedly lowered his head and pretended to drink tea.

Seeing that no one answered him, Liu Yidao had no choice but to smash all his anger at Hong Fang, "Do you know what people said? People say that there are two of the three brothers in the family alone, who knows if the only one who comes to ask for marriage also likes men and plans to marry her niece and go back to live and be widowed? ”

As soon as Liu Yidao's words fell, the jaw dropped on the spot when he was about to ask for a kiss, and the handsome face of Bai Shou, who was the first to be rumored to like men, was completely crooked, and He Xiaoqiao squirted out all the tea, almost choking himself to death.

"Tell me what you're doing?" Liu Yidao blew his beard and stared at his eyes, his headache was so bad that he almost didn't knock on the floor twice with a cane, He Xiaoqiao is a princess He can't say, Bai Shou, who is a subordinate and a junior, was the first to be affected by the artillery fire, "Bai Shou, tell me, do you really like men?" ”

"I didn't!" Bai Shoujun's face distorted, gritting his teeth and holding back his voice.

it! What does he look like he likes men?

"Ahem!" As the culprit, He Xiaoqiao cleared her throat, and looked at Bai Shou's sad and angry appearance and was a little cautious, after all, it was she who ruined other people's innocence by mistake, no matter how much she said, she had to help others get their reputation back, didn't she?

"Uncle Liu, don't get me wrong, it's just a harmless joke. Hong Fang and I can testify that Bai Shou's second favorite in addition to sweets should be women! ”

"Yes, yes," Hong Fang, who finally came to his senses, touched his chin and nodded vigorously, "Lao Bai is definitely a pure master, if Uncle Liu doesn't believe it, you can ask the aunt of Juchunfang in the next county......"

"Shut up!" Bai Shou's face was so red that he could drip blood, and he quickly blocked Hong Fang's big mouth to prevent him from continuing to leak his privacy, "Besides, I don't even have to be a brother!" ”

When he said that he was going to Qinglou to see him, he shouldn't have taken this stunned person to go, because he would drag his own people back!

He Xiaoqiao glanced at Bai Shou meaningfully, and then turned his head to look at Hong Fang next to him, "Since Thirteen Niang thinks you are not very reliable, then we have to prove that she thinks too much." ”

Hong Fang, who was covering his mouth, nodded violently and wanted to speak, but unfortunately his mouth was covered, and he could only make a babbling sound.

"Okay, you don't have to speak, I know you'll agree." He Xiaoqiao rolled his eyes, waved his hand and said, "The matter of proposing marriage must not be abandoned halfway, and let the matchmaker go over in two days." Hong Fang, you will go to appease Yinhua first, see if you can find out the whole story from her side, don't talk about other things yet, just listen more and do more and talk less. ”

Hong Fang glared at a pair of bull's eyes, nodded vigorously, and as soon as Bai Shou let go of his hand, he immediately hugged his fist at a few people in the room, "Uncle Liu, princess, my subordinates will go to inquire about the news now." ”

After saying that, he rushed out of the door like a horse with an arrow in the buttocks, and ran away with oil on the soles of his feet.

The corners of He Xiaoqiao's mouth twitched, and he still looked at Bai Shou, "The matter of Longyang's fetish has to be solved, but not now." We still have to go to work in the past two days, and it is not too late to explain this matter to Thirteen Niang when we get this month's monthly money. ”

That's all there is to it.

Bai Shou nodded with a calm face, Liu Yidao didn't have anything to say.

This matter was originally made by a few of them for fun, and now it's just right for them to solve it themselves.

The matter of proposing marriage was put on hold like this, and Liu Yidao, who was still in charge of contacting the matchmaker, limped back with a cane, Bai Shou's stomach was on fire, and when he went out, he called down the buddy who was squatting on the tree and guarded, and threw the weapon to him, regardless of whether they were ready or not, he drew his sword and beckoned to the door of the house, which scared the guy enough.

Listening to the sound of weapons handing over from the rooftop, Cailian and Suo'er were so frightened that their faces turned pale, but He Xiaoqiao was calm and leisurely, as if nothing happened.

It's obviously a good way to vent when she's feeling aggrieved, so she won't stop Bai Shou - of course, if he dares to destroy the things in Fengzhu Yayuan, that's another matter.

When they went to Yihong Courtyard the next day, He Xiaoqiao and the three of them were blocked in the backyard - to be precise, it should be Hong Fang who was pulled over by Thirteen Niang alone for questioning, and He Xiaoqiao and Bai Shou were on the side.

I don't know what Chun Shisanniang said to Hong Fang, when he came out, his face was a little weird, looking at He Xiaoqiao and the two of them looked like they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, they didn't say anything when they asked him, they bit their mouths and said that it was a secret.

So Bai Shou was responsible for pressing Hong Fang, and He Xiaoqiao showed his fist and beat him up.

This is just the degree of tickling for Hong Fang, He Xiaoqiao's flower fist embroidered legs really don't have any effect on his thick skin, not to mention that Yinhua saw him beaten later, and came up distressed to relieve him, comforting him and rubbing medicine for him, which made him so happy that he couldn't find the north at all.

Although she was glared at by Yinhua just now, He Xiaoqiao was not angry, looking at her careful care of Hong Fang, she felt that this girl would definitely be a good housekeeper who would love her husband and children when she married back, and Hong Fang would not lose money if he was beaten.

When she was idle before, she also inherited the tradition of the Lao Jiang family very well, so that people could find out the details of the silver flower, and after confirming that this girl was not the slightest bit wrong, she vigorously supported Hong Fang to find her to develop romance, and now it seems that the effect is really too good to be better.

"What are you doing standing outside? Don't hurry up and get to work! Chun Thirteen Niang's voice came from the house, He Xiaoqiao, who was watching the eight o'clock file of love in the feudal era, touched his nose, exchanged a 'really disappointed' look with Bai Shou, swept away the snow on his body stupidly, and went to his post.

"Oh, you're back!" A familiar voice sounded overhead, and before He Xiaoqiao could react, a pair of slender hands had already fallen on his shoulders, and the voice was rare eagerness, "The girl has been reading the dishes you cooked, and she hasn't eaten properly for two days." ”

He Xiaoqiao looked up and saw Xiaoyu's face full of anxiety, and without saying a word, he pushed her downstairs, "Quick!" Fast! Before the guests arrived, help the girl boil some hot porridge first, otherwise she will have a stomach ache later. ”

is used to He Xiaoqiao's light meals, since she took leave, Lan Xin hasn't eaten much, just eat a little, sometimes she doesn't even move at all, and Xiaoyu is extremely distressed.

"Okay, don't push, I'll go, I'll go!" Although I wonder when Lan Xin was so obsessed with her cooking skills, since it is her own job, where is the reason to push it off.

Let Xiaoyu push downstairs, He Xiaoqiao took a deep breath, pinched his finger bones and moved, and then opened the bead curtain leading to the back and entered the kitchen.
