Chapter 53: Marriage Proposal (II)

Falling Snow Valley, reception hall. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Duanmu Jing leisurely tasted tea, looking very relaxed. Duanmu Xuan looked so anxious that he sat unsteadily, looking anxious but with a hint of expectation, waiting excitedly.

Thinking that he was going to propose to Luo Qingxue later, he was inexplicably excited.

From a long distance outside the door, Luo Wenbin's voice had already come, and he said loudly: "Brother Duanmu is the head of the Ethereal Peak, and there are many opportunities for the day, how can I have time to come to the cold house today, it really makes my little snow valley shine."

Duanmu Jing hurriedly got up, arched his hand at Luo Wenbin, and laughed loudly: "I haven't seen you for many years, Brother Luo, you are still in good health, and your demeanor is better than before, which is really gratifying." It's just that I'm getting more and more modest, it's not good, it's not good."

Immediately, the two looked at each other and burst into laughter.

At that moment, Luo Wenbin smiled and made a gesture of invitation to Duanmu Jing, and said, "Brother Duanmu, please sit down, you have something to say."

"Brother Luo, please", Duanmu saluted back, and the two sat down on the seat of the guest of honor.

Luo Wenbin asked with a smile: "Brother Duanmu took time out of his busy schedule to come to my Snow Valley, but is there anything important?"

Duanmu Jing nodded with a straightforward smile, pointed to Duanmu Xuan who was standing beside him, and said, "Indeed, I have nothing to do but ascend the Three Treasures Palace. I have come today for my nephew, who is not a good man."

"Oh......", Luo Wenbin squinted slightly, glanced at Duanmu Xuan, who was standing under Duanmu Jing, and asked lightly: "I don't know what Brother Duanmu means by this?"

Duanmu Jing cleared his throat and said, "I came here today, although it was for the sake of my inferior nephew. But this matter is a great joy for you and me."

Luo Wenbin asked with a symbolic smile: "But I don't know where the joy comes from"?

Duanmu Jing didn't reply directly, but turned to Duanmu Xuan, who was standing beside him, and said, "Xuan'er, don't come over and see you Uncle Luo soon."

Duanmuxuan hurriedly walked over, bowed very respectfully to Luo Wenbin, and said humbly: "Uncle Luo, meet Duanmuxuan, junior."

Duanmu Jing immediately asked again: "From Brother Luo's point of view, how is my nephew?"

"Well......", Luo Wenbin nodded, looked Duanmu Xuan up and down carefully, and said with a very satisfied smile: "I heard that the young master of the Ethereal Peak teaches Duanmu Xuan not only to be outstanding in martial arts, but also to be the first handsome among the young generation of martial arts today. is even more chic and graceful, a beautiful man, when I see it today, I know that what I said is true."

Duanmu Xuan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said: "Thank you Uncle Luo for complimenting, the rivers and lakes are so big, there are countless capable people, and the younger generation is just a relatively stupid disciple on the Ethereal Peak." Uncle said this, how dare Duanmu Xuan be".

Luo Wenbin just smiled and didn't answer.

"Xuan'er, you step back first......", Duanmu Jing waved his hand, motioned for Duanmu Xuan to stand aside, and then asked Luo Wenbin again: "Brother Luo, how is my inferior nephew?"

Luo Wenbin said with a smile: "Duanmu Xian's nephew is talented and intelligent, and his martial arts are excellent, and he is the successor of the Ethereal Peak in the future, there is a bad word there."

Duanmu Jing laughed and said: "Brother Luo, don't say that, you still need to spend more time on these young juniors, otherwise the young people will be arrogant."

Immediately, he sighed again, and said for no reason: "Time flies, in the blink of an eye, you and I are already in the twilight of our years, and in the future, this river and lake may be the world of these young people, this can really be said to be unforgiving."

Luo Wenbin also sighed and said: "Yes, people live for a lifetime, grass lives for a spring, and the era that belongs to us is gone." There are a lot of things to let the juniors take care of, and now I basically don't care much about the big and small affairs of Luoxue Valley, it's all Yu'er who is dealing with it, and the sooner we retire these old antiques, the better."

Duanmu Jing said lightly: "Qing Yu's virtuous nephew's ability is naturally reassuring, if my inferior nephew can have half of Qing Yu's virtuous nephew, I won't break my heart for him." For example, the lifelong event between his children makes me very nerve-wracking!"

Hearing this, Luo Wenbin's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he really ....... However, then he smiled again: "Brother Duanmu is saying that, with Duanmu's status as a virtuous nephew, if you fancy any girl, it is really a blessing from the third generation of the other party." Why did Brother Duanmu still say that he would be troubled by this?"

Duanmu Jing shook his head again and again, and said, "Brother Luo praises falsely, I really dare not take it." By the way, I heard that your family is a daughter, and the cold fairy Qingxue girl is still not married, I don't know if it's true?"

Luo Wenbin sneered in his heart, but he still showed a pleasant face on his face, and said: "Yes, Xue'er has a strange temperament, and she is indeed not married yet."

Duanmu Jing said bluntly: "Since the words have been spoken, then I will no longer detour." Don't hide it from you, Brother Luo, my nephew who is not a good nephew has admired Qingxue girl in his heart since he met Qingxue girl at the Ethereal Peak Martial Arts Rookie Meeting a few days ago, and he has always been obsessed with it, and even once reached the point of not thinking about tea and dinner. Therefore, I accompanied him to Luoxue Valley with a thick old face to propose to Qingxue Girl, I don't know what you think, Brother Luo?"

Luo Wenbin was silent for a while, a little embarrassed: "I really don't hide it from Brother Duanmu, the little girl can be loved by Duanmu Xian's nephew, it is a blessing that she cultivated in her previous life, and it is my honor to fall into the Snow Valley." It's just that I'm afraid that the marriage proposal will disappoint you, Brother Duanmu."

Duanmu Jing frowned slightly, and said: "Could it be that Brother Luo thinks that my inferior nephew is not worthy of Miss Qingxue, if this is the case, then this matter will be done, I didn't say it."

Luo Wenbin hurriedly shook his head and said, "Brother Duanmu said that, it is really a bit difficult to say that, please forgive Brother Duanmu."

Duanmu Jing asked: "As the so-called Ming people don't say dark words, I don't know what difficulties you have about Brother Luo, you might as well explain it." Or, maybe it's just a reason that Brother Luo made up because he couldn't refuse directly."

Luo Wenbin shook his head again and again and said, "Okay, since Brother Duanmu has said everything about this, I might as well say it clearly." In fact, Duanmu Xian's nephew was not the first person to come to the valley to propose to the little girl. In the past ten years, there have been not 1,000 people who have come to Luoxue Valley to propose marriage, at least 800. But in the end, they were all rejected by the little girl, I don't know if Brother Duanmu has ever heard of these things"?

Duanmu Jing looked aware of it, and said, "With the vision of Qingxue Girl, how can ordinary ordinary people afford to climb high." Although the rivers and lakes are big, in this huge river and lake, I am afraid that there will not be too many people who can get the affection of Qingxue Girl."

Luo Wenbin shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Brother Duanmu's words are wrong. It's not that the little girl has too high vision, it's just that she was engaged to someone else ten years ago."

"What, Qingxue has already made a marriage contract with someone else, how can this be ......", but it was Duanmu Xuan who spoke. He couldn't control his surprise for a while, and asked excitedly: "I don't know if Uncle Luo is telling the truth, why have you never heard of Qingxue and someone else's engagement before?"

Luo Wenbin nodded and said, "This is indeed the case, there is absolutely no half-truth in what I said."

Duanmu Xuan suddenly lost his spirit, like an eggplant beaten by frost, and stood in place languidly. Obviously, what Luo Wenbin said just now hit him too hard.

Duanmu Jing was surprised, looked at Luo Wenbin, and said puzzledly: "Since Miss Qingxue had been engaged to someone ten years ago, why is she still cumin today, so many years have passed, could it be ...... Could it be that the other party is dragging out and refusing to complete the marriage"?

Luo Wenbin shook his head and said, "Speaking of the reason for this, it is a sad past. The one who made the engagement with the little girl was the son of the old man's deceased, but there was a sudden change in the deceased's family, and the child lost news for a while. In the past ten years, although we have searched for many things, there has been no news. So, the little girl has been waiting for that person all these years."

Hearing this, Duanmu Xuan clenched his fists so hard that he used too much force, and the joints of his entire fingers crackled. All he had left in his mind was Luo Wenbin's sentence:

"The little girl has been waiting for that person all these years, ......."

For a long time, this sentence kept echoing in his mind.

"The little girl has been waiting for that person all these years."

Who's that person?

Or, what kind of person is it that makes Luo Qingxue wait for so many years?

For a moment, a few traces of resentment flashed on Duanmu Xuan's face, jealousy, resentment, and hatred...... , all kinds of flavors came to my heart. After a long time, he let out a long breath, tried to control the excitement in his heart, calmed down, and asked calmly, "I wonder if Uncle Lo can tell me who this person who is engaged to Qingxue is." I really want to know, is it because of that that he actually made Qingxue wait for him for ten years"?

Luo Wenbin shook his head slightly, a little embarrassed: "I hope Duanmu Xian's nephew will forgive me, please forgive me for not being able to tell me about this."

Duanmu Jing smiled slightly and said, "Brother Luo can be said to be the Taishan Beidou in the martial arts, how can he be like those ordinary people, bound by these ordinary rules and regulations. Even though Miss Qingxue has a marriage contract with someone, she has not yet completed the marriage, not to mention that the other party has been missing for ten years. Therefore, Miss Qingxue can now choose another good husband to marry, even if this matter spreads in the future, no one will say that it is you Luo Xuegu who has broken the appointment!

Luo Wenbin sighed, and then smiled bitterly: "It's not that I'm too persistent, it's not that I'm too persistent, it's really a little girl...... Alas...... , forget it, it doesn't make sense to say that now. In fact, what Brother Duanmu said just now is right, I don't understand this truth, it's just ......."

With a sigh of relief, Duanmu Jing said solemnly: "Regarding the combination of Qingxue girl and Xuan'er, I think Brother Luo should consider it carefully, both in public and private. First of all, from the perspective of the valley lord of the Falling Snow Valley, if you can have a son-in-law who is the head of the Ethereal Peak, I don't think you can understand the weight of this brother Luo. Taking a step back, from a father's point of view, Brother Mo Feiluo, do you really want to watch your daughter live alone for the rest of her life in this kind of ethereal waiting, how much do you not plan for Miss Qingxue's happiness in the future?"

After saying these words, he picked up the teacup on the table with a relaxed expression and took a sip, looking leisurely and complacent. He knew that Luo Wenbin had no reason to refuse.

It's a pity that he miscalculated.

Luo Wenbin looked at Duanmu Jing's appearance, and he was bored for no reason, but his face was silent. After being silent for a while, he said with a smile: "What Brother Duanmu said is really reasonable. Luo has categorically no longer had any reason to refuse, just ......".

It's just that......

This is the second thing Luo Wenbin said today. But just what?

Duanmu Jing asked lightly: "It's just what, Brother Luo still has something to say?"

Before Luo Wenbin could speak, he suddenly heard a person outside the door say loudly: "It's just that the person who made the engagement with Xiaoxue suddenly returned to Luoxue Valley a few days ago after disappearing for ten years."
