"Don't bother the Duchess of Laoguo, Sushuang has already had a marriage contract."

Not only Song Guanqiong, but everyone else also heard it.

Xiang Jingkui's eyes widened, how could she never have heard the master say it, she didn't ask in person.

Song Guanqiong ran all the way, just guessed the intentions of the Yang family and Yang Shaolian, and came to relieve the siege for the master, and suddenly heard this sentence, like a heavy object hitting the back of the neck, and Shandao's mouth couldn't say a word.

Master has a marriage contract?

Is it with whom?

There was magma tumbling under the slightly undulating chest, and the lowered eyes were more and more empty-eyed and cold.

But seeing the look of the junior sister, Song Guanqiong thought about it, I am afraid that this is just a pretext from the master.

His mind calmed down a little, and his expression gathered without a trace.

Yang was really attracted by Xia Sushuang's words, and said, "Oh, what kind of marriage contract can delay the female master to this age?" ”

Xia Sushuang said unhurriedly: "The family teacher has a saying, there will be a catastrophe if you marry before twenty-four, I have grown up with Na Langjun since childhood, and my love is unswerving, and he is willing to wait for me." ”

Anyway, her master, Bai Qishan, is dead, and the Duchess can only listen to her.

Song Guanqiong's hand behind him clenched inch by inch when he heard her say the words "unswerving".

Yang may not really believe her words, but seeing that everyone has taken out the marriage contract to refuse, it seems that the marriage is not successful, she is a person who gives alms from above, people don't want it, and she can't force it.

"Where is Master Xia's Lang Jun now?"

Xia Sushuang talked nonsense about a place: "Jiangnan." ”

"That being the case, it seems that Jianjing is no good matchmaker for Master Xia."

Yang's words are final, no matter whether what Xia Sushuang said is true or not, since she rejected her Yang family, she doesn't want to enter this Jianjing Gaomen.

Yang Shaolian saw that they said a few words, and his marriage was yellow, where was he willing to follow, "Since it can't be a happy event, Xia Niangzi was injured before, so she didn't say anything?" ”

As he spoke, he lifted the wound on his wrist.

Xia Sushuang still didn't panic: "This is strange, I sat in the carriage well, why did I hurt Yang Jiancheng?" ”

"You cut my wrist with a thread without saying a word, causing me to fall off my horse and almost be trampled to death by the horse's hooves, isn't it a plot to kill an official of the imperial court?" Yang Shaolian tried to scare her.

Song Guanqiong's gaze moved from Xia Sushuang's shoulders to Yang Shaolian.

Xiang Jingkui took the lead: "Didn't Yang Jian Cheng forget that there is still a person sitting in the carriage?" What you said didn't sound like what a court official should say. ”

"You...... Tell me what I said! Yang Shaolian was sure that a little lady couldn't say it.

Hearing this, Song Guanqiong thought about it for a while, and knew that this Yang Shaolian must have been disrespectful to his master.

Song Guanqiong knew the Yang family's temperament, and during the time when Xia Sushuang lived in the mansion, he went to visit the guest house, and he didn't let the Yang family know about her meticulousness.

At present, we have to stand up for our master in front of Yang, and we must consider our words.

When the younger sister hesitated, he spoke: "Uncle and grandfather have very different temperaments, and there are many inappropriate behaviors, which make the Yang family disgraced, so that my father will not feel at ease.

Since I have been in the position of eunuch for many years, I advise my uncle to think less about the continuation of the strings, and more about why they don't look down on their uncles from the saints to the masters and sisters who didn't know their uncles before. ”

kept saying "uncle", and he didn't show mercy in his words.

"You ......" Yang Shaolian blushed, but seeing that one was the prince and the other was the concubine of the Hou Ye, he didn't dare to quarrel, and turned his head to ask Sister A to make the decision for him.

As a result, the Yang family didn't help him: "Enough, it's a good festival, if you say anything about murder and can't look down on anyone, no one looks down on anyone, it's all a misunderstanding." ”

She didn't look down on this step-brother in the first place, and she was indifferent when she heard Song Guanqiong's sarcasm.

Anyway, what the son meant was that there was no problem with her Yang family, it was all this passing incense that didn't work, and he felt ashamed to be a nephew.

Xiang Jingkui was too lazy to pay attention to their family's: "Anyway, your Guogong Mansion refuses to let my master live in peace, so I will invite my master to the Xiyue Marquis Mansion." ”

Seeing that the two apprentices were standing up for themselves, Xia Sushuang didn't want them to contradict the elders for themselves, but they were still heartwarming.

They are all good children who are filial.

At this moment, she thought about calming things down, so she patted Xiang Qinkui's hand: "The Guogong Mansion is very thoughtful, I am gracious, and today I just have the heart to say some happy events, although the happy events do not work, but it does not hinder anything." ”

Because of this sentence, Song Guanqiong glanced at the master intentionally or unintentionally.

Xiang Qiankui knew what the master meant, and didn't want to make the scene stiff anymore, "Qinkui is straightforward and fast-talking, and asks the Duchess to forgive." ”

"No problem."

Although the Yang family is not angry today, it can be regarded as a face-saving woman, and she is still a penniless female martial artist, and she is in a bad mood.

On the left and right, Xia Sushuang didn't know how to lift, and he just wanted to send them away at the moment, and he didn't say anything more.

Only Yang Shaolian was stabbed even again, his eyes almost bulged, how could he leave, and he didn't want any face as a prisoner?

But no one can be provoked, except for this toast who doesn't eat and drink-

He looked at Xia Xushuang again.

is so ignorant of current affairs, then it is no wonder that Yang Shaolian has a touch of cruelty in his eyes, and he pinched the pill in his sleeve even heavier.

"Female master, I still have something to say to the son." Yang spoke again, to ask them to leave.

Xia Sushuang nodded and went back with Xiang Jingkui.

In the afterglow of Song Guanqiong, the master who passed by left with his junior sister, from the time he came in to the time when the master left, she was as if she didn't see herself, and her steps were slightly faster than usual.

Is Master angry with him?

Until I saw the master and sister go to the edge and sit down, there was no shelter on three sides, and the wind was stronger and colder than elsewhere.

Knowing Yang's contempt for his master, Song Guanqiong thought about it in his heart.

"Watching the Firmament."

Hearing Yang's call interrupt Song Guanqiong's thoughts, he raised his eyes slightly and called "Mother".

"You go first," the Yang family also sent Yang Shaolian out, before he looked at Song Guanqiong, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, "Why did you refuse to have a relationship with the princess of the Jin Kingdom?" ”

Song Guanqiong only said: "My son has no intention of the princess of the Jin Kingdom. ”

Yang didn't want to hear this reason, "Intentionally or not, what does it have to do with getting married?" Marry her, and see what you like in the future, and accept it as well. ”

Looking at the entire dynasty, is there a more noble daughter-in-law than a princess?

If her son marries a princess, her honor as a duchess of Dingguo will also rise to a higher level.

Now that this princess and daughter-in-law have been lost, if there are any more in the future, they will have to be inferior, how can the Yang family be satisfied.

Song Guanqiong saw through what the Yang family cared about the most, since he was a child, he was the son-in-law and son who helped her stabilize her position, and he had to firmly grasp the bargaining chips in his hands, but he was not the son who should be cared about.

Because of understanding, there will be no disappointment.

Faced with the questioning, Song Guanqiong was calm: "I don't want to do this, but also the saint doesn't want to. ”

"What do you mean?" Yang frowned.

He only mentioned one sentence: "Mother, the tree is very popular." ”

This matter should not be discussed in public, Yang knew that it was taboo, so he put the conversation aside for the time being.

"This morning, I sent someone to look for you in the Qingshe, only to know that you left the Guogong Mansion early in the morning."

She has been pressing this matter in her heart today, and she broke it, just to ask him to explain.

Dingguo Gong guards the northwest and rarely returns home, Yang is very concerned about his control of the Guogong Mansion, but he doesn't even know that his son is going out, which touches her taboo.

Song Guanqiong has long been accustomed to the Yang family keeping a close eye on his every move, since he was a child, he said unhurriedly: "The prince is urgent, and the son is inconvenient to disturb his mother, so he walked through the small door." ”

Knowing that it was the prince's business, the Yang family didn't ask much.

The son Jane is in the emperor's heart, and he is a close confidant of the prince, and when he goes out to do things, it is mostly a secret matter of the court, and the Yang family knows that it is not good to ask more, but he is sure that his son knows everything about himself.

Song Guanqiong had already meant leaving, "It's rare for my junior sister to come over, today is the first day, my son should go over to greet him, and ask her to greet the Hou Ye by the way." ”

In Yang's ears, it was his son's preference for Miss Xiang.

"But just the Xiyue Marquis Mansion, that concubine has long been raised to be vulgar in words and deeds, and the princess of the Jin Kingdom is a world of difference, how can you give up the pearl for the sake of the fish, you have lived in the difficult mountain for too long in the past few years, and you will be blinded by the so-called childhood sweetheart?"

"My son just went to say hello."

Song Guanqiong said, turned around and walked over.

Yang looked at the back of his son's departure, his face was a little distorted, and the tea bowl in his hand would have been thrown to the ground if it wasn't still outside.

Seeing this, the confidant Mama Xu hurriedly comforted the master: "The prince is just a few weeks of courtesy, and now the prince and the prince have the trust of the court, and it is not easy to make mistakes in every move, and there are rumors all over the city at every turn, and it is naturally a good thing to be thoughtful, not necessarily to be interested in that young lady." ”

Yang tensed for a while, and said quietly: "He is getting more and more ideas now......

The other side.

Xia Sushuang didn't know what the big apprentice was thinking, she walked faster but was nervous in her heart.

After sitting down, Xia Xushuang pressed the back of her cold hand against her slightly hot cheeks to cool down.

You didn't say the wrong thing just now, did you?

It was the first time she had dealt with such an embarrassing scene, saying that she was an elder, Xia Sushuang was actually not deeply involved in the world, and it was already racking her brains to be able to say such things.

Sneaking a glance at the little apprentice again, she shouldn't have noticed that Xia Sushuang took a sip of tea with peace of mind.

Xiang Jingkui didn't know about Master's nervousness, and as soon as she sat down, she couldn't wait to ask, "Master, do you really have a marriage contract?" ”

Xia Sushuang shook her head: "It's just an excuse." ”

She patted her heart: "I'll just say, if the master really has a marriage contract, it won't be delayed...... No, I'm saying Master's trick is wonderful, but what if the Duchess has to ask clearly? ”

"Probably not." Xia Sushuang saw the arrogance of the Duchess of the Kingdom, and she would not ask to the end.

"What kind of Yang Shaolian, who is also a hundred instruments supervisor, a petty official who is less than seven grades," Xiang Jingkui gestured a little finger, "Master, don't take it to heart, how can a fairy match 289." ”

"I'm still a fairy at my age." Xia Sushuang waved his hand like an old woman in the village.

"I say yes and ......"

Xiang Jingkui was about to continue, when he heard a voice from the other side of the screen.

It was a female voice that couldn't hold back her voice, "You say, what kind of woman can enter the eyes of the son?" ”

"I don't know, anyway, it's not like the princess of the Jin Kingdom, you see that she was going to die and live before, isn't she still married now......"

It was the officials of Beppu who were talking, and when you heard it, you knew who they were talking about.

Xiang Jingkui's attention was immediately attracted to the past.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with a little narrowness on her face: "No wonder I saw that the locust trees next to the road were all cut down when I came, it turned out that the princess was going to get married, and the pomp was so big, I am afraid that Suzaku Street will not be enough for her to walk at that time." ”

Xia Sushuang didn't understand, how to talk about the princess.

Xiang Jingkui approached the master awkwardly: "Master, do you know how many little ladies in Jianjing have secret promises to their senior brothers?" ”

"I don't know."

However, she knew that the eldest apprentice had an outstanding appearance since he was a child, a calm temperament, a considerate and filial piety, and such a good background, it was common for him to be loved by women.

"I guess the little ladies who have not been out of the cabinet, out of ten, eight or nine of them definitely want to marry their senior brother, Master, you don't know, the senior brother has only been back in Jianjing for two years, and he has a 'gargling ice and snow, Yiqi Lingyun' praise,

Both civil and military, handsome and incomparable, can't find any shortcomings, and scratches the spring hearts of those little ladies - more rippling than the moat under the bridge.

This princess of the Jin Kingdom once said that she would not marry if she was not a senior brother, but unfortunately the senior brother said many times that she had no intention of her, and the sage Gu Nian Dingguo Gong was still serving the country at the border, and did not force this family matter on the shoulders of the senior brother...... I didn't expect to get married. ”

Xia Sushuang didn't understand the marriage method of the royal family of the Jianjing family, but she just listened to what the apprentice said.

"Master, what do you think is a good senior brother?"

Xia Sushuang replied as it should be: "Naturally, he is marrying the woman he likes." ”

"I really can't think of what kind of ...... senior brother will like" Xiang Jingkui browled his face, thinking back to the past two years, there were no beautiful rumors about his senior brother.

She looked at the master.

Xia Sushuang was still listening to her, and her deer-like eyes were not stained with the slightest impurity.

Xiang Jingkui's thoughts are a little out of her mind, the senior brother has been facing the master every day since he was a child, will he like the appearance of the master?

This perverse conjecture passed in my mind for a moment, and then it was dissipated.

The relationship between master and apprentice is human, the senior brother is a first-class person who is respectful and courteous, and he never makes any mistakes in his actions.

"What's wrong?" Xia Sushuang saw that she suddenly stopped talking.

"No, it's just that I've never heard of a little lady who is close to my brother, so it's really hard to guess." Xiang Jingkui took a sip of tea.

"What about you, little sunflower?" Xia Sushuang turned a corner and asked her.

"Ahem, ahem! What? Xiang Jingkui wiped the tea on her lower lip.

"You, what kind of Lang Jun do you like?"

In Xia Sushuang's eyes, her little apprentice is exquisitely beautiful, natural in nature, and bright and lively, how can she not be liked.

"Me?" Xiang Jingkui clenched his fists, and his voice rose, "I can beat all the Langjun in Shangjing to the ground." ”

"Then there's nothing reluctant to beat?"

Reluctant to beat......

Xiang Jingkui's eyes dodged to the side, and then tilted to Xia Sushuang, "Master-let's chew the root of Senior Brother's tongue, what are you doing on me?" ”

Even if Xia Sushuang doesn't have a deep understanding of the relationship between men and women, she also knows what the little apprentice's reaction means.

It seems that there is.

However, for the sake of Xiao Sunflower's face, Xia Sushuang no longer continued to ask, her children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, which was also taught by her master.

As the two were talking, a shadow shook in front of them, and Xia Sushuang saw a hand stretched out in front of him.

The five fingers are as thin as cold white bamboo, and there is a rabbit made of glutinous rice and covered with frosting in the palm of his hand.

As soon as she looked up, there was someone else who was not her big apprentice.

Xia Sushuang called out with a smile: "Ah Ji." ”

When Song Guanqiong saw her smiling face, he knew that he was thinking too much, so he put his mind at ease, "Master, on behalf of my mother and uncle, I will apologize to Master." ”

"Why apologize......" She was about to say something, but she sniffed out something was wrong, and suddenly put her hand on his heart.
