The female envoy came to announce that the banquet was about to begin, and the ladies made an appointment to move to the banquet hall.

At the door, there was a maid singing her name - "The girl from the Hou Mansion in Ningbei has arrived!" ”

Everyone in the banquet hall lined up their gazes, like a rain of arrows in the sky.

Rao is Shen Paner, who is used to being the focus of attention, is a little frightened, not to mention Shen Yue'er and Ye Lingwu, they almost didn't turn their heads back, but fortunately, reason pulled the two of them.

Both men and women are seated in the hall, but they are also separated by a long green bamboo tulle screen, with the men's seats on the outside and the women's seats on the inside.

Not long after Ye Lingwu fell to the table, he was suddenly dragged over by Shen Pan'er, and said excitedly: "Sister Lingwu, it turns out that everyone is looking at you just now, and everyone says that Scholar Jiang admires you, so he sacrificed his life to save you." ”

"What?!" Ye Lingwu almost didn't jump up.

Shen Pan'er raised her eyebrows, suppressed the excitement in her heart, and said solemnly: "I reacted the same as you when I first heard it, you said that you and Scholar Jiang have not met a few times, how can it still be rumored that Scholar Jiang admires you." ”

Ye Lingwu's mouth opened wide, and he couldn't help but look at Jiang Yuan opposite.

She is still in a snow-blue brocade robe today, with white beast hair on her shoulders and a jade crown on her head, I don't know if it is because she knows her daughter's body, Ye Lingwu looks at Jiang Yuan at this moment and does not feel that she is weak, but has a little more atmosphere and humility and elegance that women do not have.

Ye Lingwu was looking at it, Jiang Yuan suddenly raised his head, and the two looked at each other, suddenly feeling a lot of embarrassment.

Of course, this embarrassment was only limited to Ye Lingwu, and Jiang Yuan smiled back generously when he looked at him.

Ye Lingwu also smiled at her.

In the next second, there was an extra chill on her body, this chill was external and could not be ignored, and even the smile on her face became stiff.

Ye Lingwu's eyes were worried, and he found that Shen Zhan was looking at her steadily. The girl's fair skin was beautifully illuminated by the candlelight, delicate and tender...... He slowly squeezed his palms.

obviously didn't say a word, but Ye Lingwu was furious.

This meal was restless, Ye Lingwu wanted to finish eating early and leave early, who knew that the men's seat was drunk, and it was dragged until the sky was dark, and the female dependents were not good to leave the table in advance, so they had to go to the warm pavilion to eat tea and wait.

The girls were chatting about the latest clothes, Ye Lingwu sat quietly and listened, and suddenly a little female envoy came outside, and hurriedly approached Ye Lingwu and said a few words.

Ye Lingwu said slowly: "Sister Lou is looking for me?" ”

The little envoy nodded and said, "Yes, girl, our girl said that she was going back to Northern Xinjiang soon, and she wanted to talk to you more." ”

Ye Lingwu thought about it, and there was no doubt that he followed the little girl out of the house,

The fog was heavy on the cold night, and the stone path under his feet was a little slippery, the lanterns on the porch were dim, and there were fewer and fewer female servants coming and going.

Ye Lingwu began to beat the drum in his heart, and couldn't help but ask: "Your girl wants to speak, why did she come to this remote place?" ”

The little envoy stopped, pointed to the small covered bridge in front of her, and said softly, "Our girl is waiting for you there." ”

Ye Lingwu was skeptical, but because of the psychology of "I always have to take a look when I come", he boldly went forward.

Under the small corridor bridge is a small lake, a tall figure in a snow-blue dress is looking down at the stream, listening to the sound behind him, and turning around.

Ye Lingwu was stunned for a moment - why is she!?

Jiang Yuan said, "You're still here." ”

Ye Lingwu blinked, and after thinking about it, he said angrily: "You lied to me." ”

"No lie, I asked Miss Lou to invite you over."

"That's also what you know to invite me in your name, I will definitely excuse myself before I deliberately ask Sister Lou." Ye Lingwu was afraid of being seen, so he looked left and right when he spoke.

Jiang Yuan said: "Yes, even your own knowledge is that you are avoiding me." I've been looking forward to you coming to visit every day these days, but you didn't come once. I finally saw you today, and I wanted to be able to talk to you alone. ”

Ye Lingwu was ambiguous when he heard this, and said with a cold face: "If you have something to say, I haven't said a word about you, you don't have to be tempted." ”

Jiang Yuan smiled silently, seeing that the girl was wearing a purple brocade jacket today, her skin was like snow and jade, her eyebrows were thick and green, and her eyes were full of waves.

She said, "You still like to wear purple clothes." ”

Ye Lingwu frowned when he heard this, and let out a faint "um".

In fact, she doesn't like to talk about the past with Jiang Yuan, as long as she talks about the past with her, she will feel a pain in her heart. The love of childhood became a joke, who can stand it.

“…… You have something to say, and I'm going to leave if it's okay. After being silent for a long time, Ye Lingwu couldn't help but say in a muffled voice.

Jiang Yuan Zhengse said: "I have something I want to discuss with you. ”

Ye Lingwu raised her eyes, only to see a smile on Jiang Yuan's face, but the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes, she was shocked in her heart, and wondered: "What are you discussing?" ”

Jiang Yuan said calmly and directly: "Marry me." ”

"What ?!!!" Ye Lingwu was dumbfounded. There was a thunderbolt above the head, and the sky was thundering.

Jiang Yuan didn't care about her surprise, and said calmly: "I've been struggling these days, I know that Xiao Marquis Shen likes you, and you may also like him, but I still want to discuss this matter with you." ”

"It's—such a big thing, you. Can you just talk to me about it? Ye Lingwu was dumbfounded.

This matter is not as simple as the words of the matchmaker of the parents, Jiang Yuan is the body of a daughter, the body of a daughter! Or be a courtier!

What kind of kindness can she have when she marries herself, but she just wants to pull her on the boat, and in the future, she will be a person on a boat, and if the boat capsizes, she will die.

Jiang Yuan said seriously: "I know Qingqing doesn't understand, but what I'm saying is not a joke. ”

Ye Lingwu saw that her expression was sincere, and she thought about it for a long time, and suddenly gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart. If she could have said this earlier, if she wasn't a daughter, if she wasn't Jiang Yuan.

It's just a pity that there aren't so many ifs.

Ye Lingwu gritted his teeth and said, "You said you would marry me, how can you marry me?" Don't talk about yours. Your identity, just talk about your family background, I have long heard that the rules of Huainan famous families are the most cumbersome, and they also pay the most attention to the right people, you want to marry me, it's simply"

"Parents have agreed." Jiang Yuan quickly interrupted Ye Lingwu's words.

“？？！！”

Ye Lingwu was incredulous, and said dumbfounded: "Same, agree?!" How did they agree? ”

As she spoke, she suddenly realized and said timidly: "I know, did you tell them that I know about you?" Together, you guys pull me aboard. ”

Jiang Yuan smiled when he heard this: "Don't worry, my parents don't know about this yet." ”

Ye Lingwu was skeptical, then thought about it carefully, and said: "Yes, even if you don't marry me, your parents won't let you marry a girl from a high-ranking family, especially the powerful in the capital." Instead of this, it is better to marry someone with no background, and even if you know your secret, you will not be able to turn the storm in the future. ”
