Chapter 149: "Marriage Proposal"

Geng Xingshuang thought that he would lose sleep tonight, after all, the contrast between this day was too great, he was still eating with Yang Tianmo and Geng Shuhuai during the day, and went to Tao's house to participate in a funeral at night, Geng Xingshuang remembered that when he and Zhu Yan left, when he worshiped Tao's mother's spiritual position, the dilapidated white in the house sighed deeply in his heart.

She didn't know if she wanted the government to find out anything, or if she couldn't find out anything, Tao Yuyu's mother just died of illness.

Thinking about it, I don't know when I fell asleep, I slept very deeply, and when I woke up again, there was a hazy light projecting in from the window.

I had a night of dreams, and the scenes in my dreams changed and changed, chaotic and messy, and even now that I woke up, I still flashed in my mind from time to time that I didn't know when and where I was in the dream.

"Looks like I've had that weird dream again!" She muttered to herself, only in that dream world can there be such colorful lights.

"Gollum"

Geng Xingshuang's stomach let out a scream, hungry.

"I didn't eat last night." Geng Xingshuang suddenly remembered that after leaving Tao's house last night, Yang Tianmo originally proposed to take them to eat something together, but Geng Xingshuang felt that he was not hungry, tired and in a bad mood, so he was unwilling to walk a little more in order to fill his stomach.

I wasn't hungry until I went to bed last night, "I thought I woke up scared from a nightmare, but I didn't expect to be woken up by hunger!" ”

She muttered to herself, she wanted to sleep again, after all, she still felt very sleepy, but she couldn't seem to bear it when she was hungry, and kept screaming.

After hesitating on the bed, Geng Xingshuang bounced up, and after a while, the sky was completely bright, and he probably heard the movement inside, Jinbao asked softly outside the door, "Is the girl awake?"

"Well, wake up!" Geng Xingshuang got out of bed and opened the door.

"The slave maid thinks that the girl will sleep a little more today, the girl waits, the slave maid will go to fetch water now."

Jin Bao was a little surprised to see Geng Xingshuang put on all his clothes.

Geng Xingshuang was about to say that she was hungry and asked her to go to the kitchen to get two steamed buns, but Jinbao ran too fast, and before she could speak, she disappeared.

Forget it, let's go to the kitchen by yourself in a moment.

After Geng Xingshuang finished washing, as soon as she stepped out of the house, she saw her second brother walking out with a vegetable face covering his stomach, and last night in order to send her back, Geng Shuhuai also rested in the inner courtyard.

"Second brother, do you have diarrhea?"

Geng Xingshuang blurted out, "Didn't you steal something last night?" ”

Geng Shuhuai's face turned green, and he glared at his sister, "I'm hungry, my hungry stomach hurts, I cooed all night last night, if I don't get something to eat, I won't be able to get up, you said you, no matter how bad you are, you have to eat, last night Yang Liu said that you want to eat, you have to go, starve to death!" ”

"Who do you say is Lao Tzu!"

Geng Shuhuai complained, and before the words fell, he heard Geng Wen's voice coming from the main room.

"He's got a good ear!" Geng Shuhuai muttered in a low voice, and Geng Xingshuang pursed his lips and smiled.

Geng Shuhuai glared at her.

Geng Xingshuang ignored him and walked out directly.

"Where are you going?"

"I'll go to the kitchen to get steamed buns." Geng Xingshuang said.

"Then I'll go too, alas, now if there is a bowl of hot mutton noodles, plus meat buns, fritters and soy milk, it's better to have a few donkey meat pancakes, that taste ...... No, I'm even hungrier! ”

Geng Xingshuang made the gluttonous worm he said also rise, and he didn't want to go to the kitchen to eat steamed buns.

"Second brother, let's go eat outside!"

"You're in for a treat?"

"I'm in for a treat."

"Hurry up, let's go!"

Early in the morning, the brother and sister didn't take the carriage, so they found a nearby food shop, sat down and ate a bowl of hot mutton noodles, and bought steamed buns and meatloaf from a neighboring shop, and came out of the store with a stomach.

Geng Xingshuang didn't forget to bring one to his parents.

And when he brought breakfast to Geng Wen Ruan, Geng Xingshuang heard a message from them.

It turned out that when they went out yesterday, someone came to propose to Geng Xingbing.

"Second uncle just passed away...... Geng Xingshuang suddenly thought of King Ping, who walked side by side with Geng Xingbing on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Sure enough, I listened to Ruan's words: "The person who came is the grandmother of His Royal Highness King Ping's house, in fact, it is not a marriage proposal, but I just informed them that they will come to the house to pick up the four girls in three days."

"Concubine?" Geng Shuhuai was surprised.

Ruan Shi gave him a blank look, "Nonsense, King Ping has already married a wife." ”

"That'...... And the grandfather agreed? Second aunt agrees? And Geng Shulou also agreed? ”

"Naturally, they agreed, and let us take out five hundred taels of silver within three days, which will be counted as the silver of the fourth girl."

Geng Xun asked for two thousand taels of silver before, but after being rejected by Geng Wen and Geng Yan, now he retreated to the next best place and dropped by half.

"Dad, you agreed?" Geng Xingshuang asked.

Geng Wen nodded, "What if you don't agree, that's King Ping, the son of the concubine Niangniang, the prince has not yet been established, and now the eldest prince Li Wang and the third prince King Ping have the highest voice, if King Ping ascends the throne in the future, so ...... It's hard to say no right now. ”

Before, Geng Xun asked the three rooms of the big house to pay 2,000 taels each, which was calculated according to the upper limit of the two-room family, as soon as the silver came out, it emptied the family's foundation, and I don't know when it will be relieved, not to mention that Geng Xun did not say who Geng Xingbing was going to marry at that time, so Geng Wen and Geng Yan almost refused on the spot, leaving no room for it.

This is no longer the case.

Geng Cheng died suddenly, although it is not directly related to the third room of the big house, but if Geng Wen Geng Yan has no guilt, but it is not, now Geng Xingbing climbed to King Ping, and was included in the Ping Wangfu during the period of filial piety, whether it is in the consideration of the future situation, or a trace of guilt for Geng Cheng in his heart, these five hundred taels of silver, Geng Wen Geng Yan did not think much about it, so he agreed.

Geng Wen's answer Geng Xingshuang was not surprised, and Geng Shuhuai only "tsk" twice, not knowing how to feel about this matter, and did not object.

Anyway, it's a sure thing.

Geng Xingshuang thought that someone from the Ping Wangfu came yesterday, and Tao Yuyu's mother died yesterday, would there be anything between the two.

Except for one Chu Yin in Geng Xingbing's hands, no one else is available, but King Ping is different, but will Geng Xingbing tell King Ping about his life experience? If she's already determined her background.

And would King Ping do murder in order to help a concubine who has not yet passed through the door hide his life experience?

Chong Guan is angry and red-faced?

It's also too ...... Too...... It's not like a prince who is in the middle of the imperial power and is planning for the great cause of seizing the heir.

"Dad, mother, second brother, I think there is something I need to tell you."

Come on, Geng Shuhuai's eyes lit up, he didn't sleep well last night, not only was he hungry, but the most important thing was that no one helped answer the curiosity in his heart.

In order to get the answer faster, Geng Shuhuai controlled himself not to talk much, just listen.

Geng Xingshuang told Geng Wen, Ruan, and Geng Shuhuai what she had guessed and investigated these days.

"I think Mother Tan should be aware, I originally thought that this matter had nothing to do with our family, but now that the fourth sister has entered the Pingwang Mansion, what will happen in the future, now I can't predict, now the Tao family has reported to the official, just look at how Aunt Tao died, but I didn't know that the relationship between the fourth sister and the Pingwang Mansion was so close, even if Aunt Tao's death is really strange this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to catch the culprit."

Geng Xingshuang only hoped that it would not affect the Tao family.

As he was talking, Yang Tianmo came over.
