Chapter 314: Good Things Are Coming (2-in-1, Extended Chapter)
The girl blushed with a pretty face, struggled to get off the ground from his arms in a panic, straightened the clothes on her body, and confessed to him: "That, I'm sorry, thank you!" With that, he picked up the burden that had fallen aside and left in a panic.
Shortly after she left, a group of men chased after her from behind, one of whom shouted, "Go to the left, she must have gone to the left." ”
Everyone immediately understood that they must be chasing that girl. The girl didn't know what had happened, and she was chased by so many people. Only Canghai looked at the direction of the girl's departure in a daze, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Jiang Yuqing stuck his head out of the car and smiled meaningfully: "What a beautiful and lovely girl, I don't know whose family, are you married?" ”
Canghai's face immediately showed a little unease, and he turned his head to catch the carriage as if he hadn't heard Jiang Yuqing's ridicule.
When they arrived at Shengping Building, they got out of the carriage and were about to enter the door, when they met two mothers-in-law and a group of family members carrying a girl in the direction they came. The girl struggled all the way, very angry and reluctant.
It was the girl who had fallen into Canghai's arms earlier.
Jiang Yuqing said to Canghai Nunu: "Why are you stunned, hurry up and see what's going on!" ”
Only then did Canghai step forward and stop the person: "Who are you, why are you holding her?" ”
One of the mothers-in-law glanced him up and down, and saw that although he was dressed as a guard, he was extraordinary, and he didn't dare to offend: "We belong to the Li family in Baoningfang in the south of the city, and this is our young lady."
The young lady ran away from home, and the old man ordered us to come and take the young lady home. ”
The girl took the opportunity to break free from the grip of the two mothers-in-law, hid behind Canghai, and shouted to those mothers-in-law and family members: "I said that I have a sweetheart, this is my sweetheart!" ”
Everyone was stunned when this remark came out. Jiang Yuqing glanced suspiciously between the two, and then a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he understood that this girl was afraid that she had encountered something difficult in doing this, and she made up an expedient plan.
Sure enough, the girl was in a place where the mother-in-law couldn't see, quietly tugged at Canghai's clothes, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Big brother, help, don't demolish me."
My father wants to marry me to a widower who has three dead wives, and I don't want to say that I already have a sweetheart, so he won't marry. Please! ”
Canghai turned his head: "So, are you running away from marriage?" ”
"Hmmm! Rather than marrying the widower and being beaten to death, I might as well become a monk and live my life. ”
“...... In fact, there is nothing good about being a monk, it's better to get married!"
"Big brother, if you say you will marry, in such a short period of time, where can I find someone who is not afraid of my father and can marry me."
"So, you're using me as a shield?"
"Well, I know it's not kind, and I can't help it. Big deal, when it's over, how about I give you some silver to compensate? ”
Canghai said with a cold face: "Not how! ”
Just as the two were talking, the two mothers-in-law and the family wanted to step forward to pull people again. Canghai stopped the sword forward.
"Your young lady and I have promised each other for life, how can I remarry someone else? Please return to your lord and withdraw from the marriage. ”
At the same time, he pulled the girl back: "I have something to do with your young lady today, and I will send her back later!" ”
Where is the mother-in-law, when she comes up, she will rob someone, and the rest of the three guards see this, and immediately step forward to stop people.
Just kidding, it's not easy for people like them to marry a wife, and it's hard to have a good girl who can be eye-catching and sent to the door by mistake, and it's stupid to let it go.
When the woman saw this battle, she knew that she couldn't please today, so she had to take a step back and say: "The marriage event is a major event, the order of the parents since ancient times, and the words of the matchmaker."
This little man, if you really love my young lady, please come to the door to explain to my master in person. There is also a saying whether it will be successful or not. ”
Canghai hugged her fist and said, "Naturally, but today may not be a good time." This attitude makes it clear that I don't want them to take people away.
The two mothers-in-law and the family had no choice but to leave reluctantly.
Let's say that after the two mothers-in-law returned to Li's house, as soon as they talked to Li's father, Li's father immediately raised his eyebrows: "Vertical son, you dare!" ”
Then he suddenly reined in his anger: "No, you can tell me about the man and a few of his companions, you say that they are extraordinary and well-trained?" ”
"Yes, it looks like it came out of the big camp. When the slave maid was a child, his family lived near the big camp, and those military masters were such imposing.
Moreover, not far behind them, there was a family of five. Two adults, three children. Especially the male master, the momentum was so strong that the slave didn't even dare to look at him head-on.
If the slave and maid guessed correctly, these four people should be the guards of the family of five. ”
"A family of five? The guard ......" Father Li touched the goatee thoughtfully.
The mother-in-law asked him, "Master, what should we do now?" The people of the Jia family will come to greet their relatives in two days. ”
Father Li's shrewd eyes were full of calculations: "In this way, if you go to Jia's house, you will say that the young lady suddenly had a serious illness and was sent to He'an Hospital for hospitalization, and the wedding will be postponed for a few days."
Let's see if this person comes to the bottom or not, if he really comes to the door, take the opportunity to find out his details.
If it's a good one, marry the young lady, if it's just a poor boy who has nothing, just send him away, and the marriage between the young lady and the Jia family will continue as usual. ”
"Yes, sir!" Although the mother-in-law responded to her mouth, her drooping eyelashes covered her disdain for Father Li, and secretly said, so jumping left and right, swaying wall grass, power eyes, no wonder the young lady wants to escape from marriage.
If she had changed, she would have fled.
At this time, after the people left, this Li girl generously apologized and thanked Canghai: "Little girl Li Shuying, thank you for saving this eldest brother twice today." ”
While taking out a piece of silver from the baggage, he stuffed it into Canghai's hand: "This is the silver promised to you in advance, please take it." ”
Jiang Yuqing couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw the corners of Canghai's mouth twitching.
This laughter caught Li Shuying's attention.
She hesitated for a moment, and then made a blessing with Jiang Yuqing: "I don't know what this lady has to say?" ”
Jiang Yuqing smiled and waved his hand: "No, no." Mind going up up for a meal with us. She pointed to the sea: "We are in this together." ”
Li Shuying was obviously a little hesitant: "Is this convenient?" ”
"Convenient!" Li Shuying asked Canghai with her eyes, because of this line, she only knew Canghai. Seeing that Canghai nodded, she agreed.
Although Li Shuying's family has money, this is the first time to come to Shengpinglou, and because she is following a group of strangers, she is also very restrained.
Jiang Yuqing saw that she was uncomfortable, so when she waited for the food, Jiang Yuqing took the initiative to chat with her, looking like a good sister.
It didn't take long to find out Li Shuying's personal situation and family background clearly.
She is sixteen years old, has an older brother and three older sisters, and she is the youngest daughter.
The Li family is a merchant, and it is a big family, and it is quite wealthy. It's just that Li's father is not only patriarchal, but also lustful.
In order to make his son's future path better, and the long-term wealth of the Li family, regardless of the wishes of several daughters, he used his three daughters as tools and married into various faulty families to marry, and now his life is not satisfactory.
When it came to her, it was even more excessive. In order to seek cooperation with another big merchant, he even wanted to marry her to the other party as a continuation.
The merchant has a serious tendency to domestic violence, and I heard that three wives have died.
One hanged, one threw himself into a well, and one ate poison. If she wants to say that their deaths have nothing to do with the merchant, she doesn't believe them if they are killed.
Li Shuying, such a person, naturally refused. Seeing that there are still two days left before the day of greeting the family.
Li Shuying cleaned up some gold and silver with the help of her mother, and took advantage of the servant's inattention, brought a ladder to climb to the top of the embroidery building.
If it weren't for Canghai catching her in time, even if she didn't die at this time, she would have lost her arms and legs.
Jiang Yuqing asked her what her plans were for the future?
She was silent for a while, and then she said in a depressed mood, "I plan to find a Taoist monk, or become a bhikshuni, it is better than marrying that widower and being beaten to death." ”
Jiang Yuqing patted Li Shuying's hand: "Don't be so pessimistic, maybe things will take a turn for the better?"
You see this is good, I have a dowry Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing. If you really have nowhere to go, why don't you go there and settle down for a few days? ”
Li Shuying was overjoyed when she heard this, and then hesitated a little: "Is this appropriate?" Jiang Yuqing smiled and said, "There is nothing inappropriate." When we met, it was fate, so we just did it to the end. ”
After eating, Jiang Yuqing arranged for Canghai to send Li Shuying to live temporarily in the hot spring Zhuangzi where he was married.
On the other hand, he immediately sent someone to investigate Li Shuying's background and confirm that what she said was true.
In fact, whether a person is good or evil, you can see it from her eyes.
Li Shuying's eyes are very clear, and girls with clear eyes are usually not deeply involved in the world and will not lie.
That night, Jiang Yuqing and Jing Yan called Canghai to him and asked him directly: "What do you mean to Miss Li?" Let's be honest. ”
Canghai said: "The subordinates fell in love with Miss Li at first sight. ”
"And what does she mean to you?"
Canghai shook his head: "My subordinates don't know." ”
"Then go and ask, take out your usual chic energy, break the casserole and ask to the end. If Miss Li is also interested in you, then there is nothing else to say, just go directly to the door to propose. ”
Jing Yan also said: "The leader of the guards under me, the title of Zheng Sipin, is he not worthy of being a merchant?" ”
"Flowers can be folded straight and must be folded, don't grind, chase if you like. At this age, it's time to become a biological child. Go and ask, ask and tell us when you understand. ”
So, early the next morning, Canghai went to Jiang Yuqing's hot spring Zhuangzi with envious eyes on the other three guards.
This ruffian is used to it, and in front of several masters, he behaves more seriously and respectfully.
This time, I didn't see much restraint when I saw the girl I liked, and I directly knocked her on the wall, or "tree dong".
Straight to the point: "Miss Li, I like you." If you don't have someone you like, why don't we make do with it? ”
Li Shuying was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, she took a deep breath and said, "Okay!" ”
Canghai saw that she agreed so happily, but she was a little confused: "This is the promise?" You don't ask me if I'm a good person or a bad person, and if you're a bad guy, wouldn't you have jumped into the fire pit? ”
Li Shuying shook her head: "No." I trust my instincts. ”
Canghai Zhengse said: "Although I am not a bad person, I am a retainer of another family, although I am not a slave, but I have to listen to the master at all times, and I don't have much time and freedom to speak of." You're going to want it. ”
Li Shuying said firmly: "I have thought about it." "No matter what, it's better than marrying a widower who beats his wife and being someone else's stepmother.
Moreover, the man in front of him, although not very handsome, is tall, strong, and full of manliness, he only needs to stand next to her, which will make her feel an inexplicable sense of security.
Especially when she fell into his arms. Between the two of them, there were only two thin layers of clothing, and she could clearly feel how strong and powerful his muscles were. Between her noses, it was his sweaty and strong breath, which also made her heart involuntarily speed up.
She thought, she was willing to marry him.
Canghai got the answer he wanted, and when he came back, his face was full of spring and his eyebrows were happy. A discerning person can see his appearance and know that he is near.
said to Jiang Yuqing, sure enough. She was quite relieved: "Our bachelor has finally cleared out one." Without further ado, the night is long and there are many dreams, I will ask someone to give you some dowry gifts now, and you will go to the Li Mansion tomorrow to propose marriage. ”
Jing Yan also said: "You have followed me for many years, and you have worked hard a lot, and you have more credit. I will give you a house to use as a relative. Canghai was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”
In order to give Canghai a strong momentum, Jing Yan simply gave Xingyun, Youwei and Wuming a day off, and after Wuya found out, he also specially took a day off, planning to accompany his brother to the Li family to propose marriage.
On the day of the proposal, Canghai wore the official uniform of the fourth rank for the first time, with soap boots on his feet, and he was dressed up exceptionally neatly. The other brothers are also dressed in the same way, just to give their brothers courage and save face.
According to the address given by Li Shuying, the group brought the official media to find the Li family and knocked on the knocker.
The janitor poked his head out and asked, "Who are you?" ”
The matchmaker stepped forward with a smile: "Open the door quickly, the distinguished guest is coming." Inform your lord that His Majesty's Imperial Commander, Lord Canghai, has come to the Li Mansion to propose his relatives. ”
The porter was stunned for a moment, and then rejoiced. He made a gesture with everyone: "Please wait a while, adults, and go to tell my master about it!" ”
Then the little servant turned around and ran into the door as fast as he could.
It wasn't long before there was a rush of footsteps coming from inside the door, getting closer and closer. Immediately after, two doors creaked and were opened.
The person who came was the pot-bellied father Li. He saw that several people were dressed in official uniforms, and hurriedly waved at everyone: "Your guests are coming to the door, Li has lost his welcome, please forgive your sins, quickly, please inside, please inside!" ”
The two sides entered the door, sat down, and a little maid brought tea and exchanged a few words, so they entered the topic.
