Chapter Ninety-Four: Marriage Proposal (2)

On this day, Zhao Xiyan was not allowed to show up.

She stayed in the boudoir, holding an ancient book in her hand, and the handwriting in front of her eyes danced, one moment it was put together into the two words Xu Jing, and the other time it was the smiling face of Brother Chunsheng.

"Miss," the hosta chuckled softly, "Fifth Miss is here." ”

It's cousin Zhao Suxin.

Zhao Xiyan settled his mind and got up to greet him with a smile.

Zhao Suxin came in with a smile, held Zhao Xiyan's hand, and joked with a smile: "Let me take a look, is Miss Zhao Liu a deer bumping into each other today, impatient?" ”

Zhao Xiyan scolded her with a smile: "You are embarrassed to talk about me." On the day the Wu family came to the door to propose, what did you look like, could you not have forgotten it? ”

After a few words, Zhao Xiyan's inexplicably restless heart finally calmed down.

The biggest regret of the previous life is finally fulfilled today.

The king of Beihai personally came to the door to propose marriage, giving the Zhao family enough dignity. Waiting for Zhao Yuanming to nod his head and agree, the next thing is to ask Na Cai's name.

Getting married is not just a matter of two people, but a major event of two families. Naturally, Zhao Xiyan doesn't have to worry about these things.

She just needs to stay in the boudoir in peace, waiting for her Chunsheng brother to marry her.

At noon, my grandmother Zhang and my aunt Wu came.

Zhang's eyebrows and eyes were full of joy, and it was rare to have a pleasant face: "Crescent moon, the prince personally came to the door to propose marriage, which shows the importance attached to this family matter." It is your blessing that you can marry the Beihai Palace. ”

Zhao Xiyan smiled and responded: "Being able to marry me is also a blessing for the son." ”

Zhang: "......"

Zhao Suxin lowered her head and snickered.

Wu smiled and played round: "Yue'er is right. The girl carefully raised by our Zhao family is worthy of the most outstanding young man in the world. ”

When the man comes to propose, the woman always has to be reserved, and don't show too much excitement, but be underestimated.

Of course, Zhang knew this truth, but he was happy for a while and forgot to hide it.

Zhang coughed a few times in embarrassment: "In short, from today onwards, you won't go out." After thinking about it, he added: "Before you get married, don't see the son of the world." ”

When discussing relatives, frequent meetings are to be laughed at.

Zhao Xiyan nodded in response.

Zhang's and Wu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law soon left again. At the start of the luncheon, they had to accompany the Beihai princess, mother and daughter to eat.

Zhao Suxin whispered and laughed: "Grandmother heard that the prince was going to propose marriage in person, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth for a few days, and she almost smiled crookedly. ”

Zhao Xiyan snorted and was happy.

……

In the afternoon, the king of the North Sea and his party said goodbye and left.

Zhao Yuanming drank a lot of wine today, and he was quite drunk. Songshi helped the master to sit on the bed, and when he turned his head, he saw his own girl coming with a decanting soup.

Turquoise retreated with amusement.

Zhao Xiyan served his father and drank a bowl of sobering soup: "Dad too, knowing that he doesn't drink well, why do you still drink so much wine?" ”

Zhao Yuanming laughed: "I was happy, so I drank a few more glasses." ”

"Crescent moon, sit down, Dad has something to tell you."

Yes, I drank too much.

Zhao Xiyan smiled helplessly, so he had to sit down.

Zhao Yuanming doesn't talk much on weekdays, and when he drinks too much, he loves to talk. chattered to Zhao Xiyan, starting from Zhao Xiyan's childhood: "I think back then, you were only a little older, and your father hugged you all day long." You have been very smart since you were a child, and you can recite the three-character scripture at the age of four. If you are a man and study to participate in the imperial examination, even Huo Yan is not as good as you. ”

“…… When Xu Jing came to study, he was only five years old. Dad didn't expect that naughty and lazy boy to be my son-in-law in the future. I knew that I should have beaten him hard back then and let him concentrate on his studies. ”

Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and laughed.

Xu Jing is actually very smart, but his mind is useless in reading. Zhao Yuanming taught a bunch of outstanding students, and in the face of Xu Jing, he hated iron but not steel.

"Although Xu Jing has many shortcomings, he is sincere to you." Zhao Yuanming smiled and sighed: "Okay, this is the husband and lover you picked yourself, don't regret marrying him in the future." ”

"Dad, I won't regret it." Zhao Xiyan raised his eyes and looked at his father: "He died tragically for me in his previous life, and I have been thinking about him for ten years in my heart and have never forgotten him." ”

"God has given me a new birth, I want to marry the person I like and live the life I want."

Zhao Yuanming exhaled deeply: "The prince personally came to the door to propose marriage, and I have already responded." Next, you have to give your Geng post to the palace, and unite the eight characters of your birthday. After that, the palace will come to the door to hire. ”

"Crescent moon, my father is looking forward to you marrying a lover and a safe and smooth life."

Zhao Xiyan's nose was a little sour, and he hummed softly.

The wine was surging, and Zhao Yuanming was a little dizzy. Zhao Xiyan hurriedly helped his father to lie on the bed and covered the futon for him. Then sit quietly by the bed.

Dad was reluctant to marry her.

In fact, she was reluctant to leave her father.

Fortunately, the Beihai Mansion is not far from Zhaojiafang, even if you get married, you can come back often.

After sitting for half an hour, seeing that Zhao Yuanming was already asleep, Zhao Xiyan got up. As he turned around, a faint whisper suddenly came into his ears.

Zhao Xiyan was stunned and turned his head to take a look.

Zhao Yuanming muttered again.

This time, I heard it very clearly, it was the word "twilight".

A hint of strangeness flashed in Zhao Xiyan's heart.

Obviously, this is a woman's maiden name. Her mother-in-law, Liu's maiden name, is Rong Niang. Who is this Twilight? Why did Dad never mention it to her?

……

The next day, someone came to the Beihai Palace.

The person who came was Xu Jing's third sister Xu Ying.

Zhao Xiyan didn't expect that the person who came to pick up Geng Ti would be Xu Ying, so she couldn't be reserved and shy, so she came out to meet. Just as she was about to salute, Xu Ying had already held her hand with a smile: "I used to call me the county gentleman repeatedly, and that's it." From today onwards, isn't it time to change your tune? ”

Zhao Xiyan's face was slightly red, and she was not embarrassed, so she changed her voice and called the third sister.

The title was changed, and I suddenly got a lot closer.

Xu Ying laughed softly: "Before coming, Chunsheng specially asked me to send you a message. said that it was inconvenient for him to come these days, and he could only come on the day when he was hired by Gengti. ”

In fact, Xu Jing's original words were like this: "Third sister, if you tell Sister Yueya'er, you will say that although I can't go, I have always been thinking about her in my heart." ”

This was too numb, Xu Ying couldn't say it, so she changed it a lot more subtlely.

Can Zhao Xiyan still not understand Xu Jing?

Hearing this, Zhao Xiyan pursed his lips and chuckled and nodded.

The senior monks in Daci Temple personally combined the Geng post for the prince and Zhao Liu's girl, and the eight characters matched, and it was auspicious.

The auspicious day for the next appointment was set for July 16. There is still more than half a month. Where did Xu Jing hold back for so long, and within two days, he sneaked over.

Xu Jing didn't go through the main entrance, and climbed in through the wall in the backyard.

Zhao Xiyan was a little amused, and glanced at him with disgust: "Why are you here again?" ”

Xu Jing Zhenzhen said: "It's not Li Xiao yet." Lai refused to leave, so he had to let me accompany him to Tonghua Lane. I'll stop by and see you. ”
