Chapter Twenty-Eight: Door-to-door Proposal
Bell House.
"Dusk Shan, I've already met that Murong girl. Mrs. Zhong said with a smile.
"Oh, yes"
"I have to thank Mrs. Zhuang for this," Immediately afterward, Mrs. Zhong told Zhong Dushan what had happened.
"It's still Madame who is smart. Zhong Dushan couldn't help but praise after hearing this.
"Fortunately, the effort was not in vain. In the dealer's house, I see that this Murong girl is very gentle, her appearance is lovely, and the embroidery is also very exquisite. Moreover, this girl still has a little fragrance on her body, just like the heart of a lotus flower, which is as light and fragrant as the heart of a lotus, and even Mrs. Zhuang is full of praise. ”
Seeing his wife's eyebrows fluttering, Zhong Dushan was also very happy.
"In this way, it shows that our vision is still good. However, I just don't know what about this Murong family?" Zhong Dushan couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Dushan, we are marrying Murong Wan'er alone, not the entire Murong family. Besides, when Wan'er marries, it will definitely have nothing to do with the Murong family. ”
"Wan'er, for a while, you call people like this?" Murong Feng teased.
Mrs. Zhong smiled embarrassedly.
"By the way, Dusk Mountain, I also asked Shui'er to help us check it, Shui'er liked it very much when she saw this Murong girl, ask this and that, one will say that my sister is beautiful, and the other will say that my sister is fragrant. Also, in the end, Shui'er saw that Wan'er's braids were good-looking, so Miss Wan'er made up an identical one for our Shui'er, this big and small, they are really two beauties. ”
"Haha, plus my wife, our Zhong family has three beauties. Zhong Dushan said with a smile.
Mrs. Zhong pretended to be angry, but her heart blossomed.
"But," Zhong Dushan couldn't help but have some doubts: "Madam, I don't know if this Murong girl has a marriage contract?"
"Don't worry, I've already asked clearly, she's still a girl. ”
"However, after all, we haven't asked people if they would like to marry."
"What's not to want to. A trace of displeasure suddenly flashed on Mrs. Zhong's face: "She is just an ordinary girl, just a little bit of beauty, we take a fancy to her, it is a blessing that she has cultivated for several lifetimes." Besides, our Zhong family has a big business and a great reputation, plus Jin'er is so good, Wen Taowu is strategic, and a talent, how many women dream of marrying it. ”
Zhong Dushan looked at his wife's excited appearance, and couldn't help laughing: "My madam, just now you said how different it is to be such a Murong girl, but now you are talking about people, women's hearts, it is really a needle in the sea." ”
"Twilight, no kidding, alright. Now, let's think about when we will come to the door to propose?"
"I'll leave this matter to Jin'er to decide. ”
"This is sincere, I must go to the marriage as soon as possible, haha. ”
"Madame, I have an idea. You see, now this snow lotus has buds in advance, it is estimated that it will not be long before it will bloom, this is all providence, it is the arrival of Shui'er, there is such a spectacle, plus Jin'er wants to get married, so, I want to wait until the day the lotus blooms, we will do a happy event for Jin'er, but also celebrate the return of Shui'er, when the time comes, we will feast all the people, have a good live. Zhong Dushan said.
"Great, Twilight, you're a really good idea. It's so decided, when the time comes, as soon as the lotus blooms, the good days of our Zhong family will come, on the one hand, to celebrate the return of the daughter, and on the other hand, to celebrate the marriage of the son. Ah, it makes me feel good just thinking about it. ”
"Yes, when the time comes, we can really enjoy the family. ”
This couple, who have been together for decades, are happily embracing each other at the moment.
In the past few days, Murong Feng's life has not been easy.
Wan'er has always been cold to him, and she didn't even have a chance to admit her mistakes.
In the evening of that day, after the exercises, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
"Wan'er," Murong Feng secretly followed behind Wan'er, calling softly.
"Don't call me Wan'er in the future, it's not your name. Wan'er said expressionlessly.
In this way, Murong Feng suddenly felt that the sky had fallen.
"Wan'er, Wan'er, I know I was wrong, please forgive me" Murong Feng stood in front of Wan'er.
Wan'er didn't speak, and couldn't help but laugh in her heart.
"Wan'er," After speaking, Murong Feng hugged Wan'er in his arms.
"Let go, what are you doing here?" Wan'er struggled.
"Don't let it go, you said, you are my wife, I am your husband. Murong Feng not only did not let go, but hugged him tighter.
Wan'er was worried about being seen by others, so she had to admit defeat and said, "Okay, okay, let me go quickly, can't I be angry anymore?"
Only then did Murong Feng let go of Wan'er.
Wan'er turned her head and left, and before leaving, she said softly: "When it gets dark, come to my room." ”
Murong Feng's heart blossomed.
Wan'er finally forgave herself.
Finally it got dark.
Murong Feng came to Wan'er's door.
"Wan'er, Wan'er,"
"Come in. ”
Murong Feng pushed open the door and entered.
Wan'er was sitting on a chair, her head bowed, and her originally fair face was flushed.
Murong Feng hugged Wan'er in his arms, and this time, Wan'er did not struggle.
"Wan'er, I'm sorry, I was wrong the other day, I ......"
Before Murong Feng finished speaking, Wan'er covered his mouth with her hand and said softly:
"Feng'er, don't say it, I know. ”
After speaking, Wan'er stood up and said, "You close your eyes, I'll give you something." ”
Murong Feng obediently closed his eyes.
After a while, Wan'er walked over, "Open your glasses." ”
Murong Feng saw Wan'er hand her a handkerchief.
"Just what?"
"Feng'er, you gave me a jade pendant as a love thing, and I have never given you anything. Later, Yan'er told me about the Women's Red Competition, and in addition to gold and silver, the prizes also included the embroidery thread of the Women's Red Mountain, which is a particularly precious embroidery thread. I thought that if I could win the contest and get the embroidery thread, I thought I would embroider a handkerchief for you, so I signed up. Feng'er, you are the reason why I participated in the competition. ”
"Wan'er, I'm so stupid, I was born in a blessing and didn't know how to be blessed, and I broke your heart like this. After speaking, Murong Feng kissed Wan'er lightly on the head.
"Okay, take a look, how is this handkerchief embroidered?"
Murong Feng saw that this handkerchief was embroidered with a maple forest, and the sun was setting, which was very beautiful.
In the bottom corner, there are two words embroidered: "Evening maple"
"Wan'er, what does this mean. ”
"You fool, not at all interesting. ”
"Wan'er, I don't know. I also hope that the lady will be bumpy for a moment or two. ”
Wan'er smiled: "When the sun sets, it's late, and it's the same as my Wan, it's me." ”
"That maple is the maple forest, and it is also the same as my peak, it is me. Feng'er said.
"Yes, that's what it means. Feng'er, I hope you are Feng. ”
"Why, the mountain peaks are majestic, isn't it?"
"It is indeed good that the mountains are majestic, but you see those distant mountains, although they stretch for thousands of miles, they are far away in the sky, and I can't touch them. But the maple leaves are different, the maple leaves are equally handsome, and the exquisite veins are not inferior to the beauty of the mountains and rivers. What's more, this maple leaf, I can put him in my hand, always feel his temperature. Wan'er said emotionally.
Listening to Wan'er's words, Murong Feng's eyes couldn't help but moisten a little.
"Wan'er, whether it's a mountain peak or a maple leaf, I will never leave Wan'er half a step in this life, I will always accompany Wan'er, love Wan'er, protect Wan'er, and make Wan'er the happiest person in the world. ”
"Feng'er, I believe. ”
The two of them were next to each other, and the embroidery thread on the handkerchief in their hands also became shining.
Just when the two of them happily thought that there were only the two of them between heaven and earth, they didn't expect that an uninvited guest came to Master Murong Yingxue's room.
This person is none other than Zhong Jin.
When Zhong Dushan and Mrs. Zhong expressed their approval of this family business, Zhong Jinxi couldn't help himself, and he couldn't wait to come to the door to propose marriage immediately.
Originally, this kind of thing should be well prepared, and after a good day, bring the gift money to the door. However, firstly, Zhong Jin was afraid of long nights and dreams, and he wanted to go early, and secondly, if he came to the door with great fanfare, he would naturally meet Murong Feng.
After thinking about it, Zhong Jin decided to take advantage of the night and came to Murong's house.
"I don't know if Gongzi Zhong is so late, what are you doing?" asked Murong Yingxue.
"To tell you the truth, I came to the door to propose. Zhong Jin said without humility or arrogance.
"Propose?" Murong Yingxue was taken aback.
"Yes, I don't know if Master Murong still remembers, that day, you and your apprentice Murong Wan'er were surrounded by my subordinates on the Domain Mountain, but I still helped the two of you to solve the siege. To be honest, I fell in love with Miss Wan'er at first sight, and since then I have decided not to marry Miss Wan'er. ”
After Zhong Jin said this, Murong Yingxue remembered the events of that day.
Zhong Jin continued: "Later, I made a request to my parents to marry Miss Wan'er. But after all, my parents had never met Miss Wan'er, and they were still skeptical for a while. Later, my mother took advantage of the name of the women's red competition to designate Wan'er as the champion, so that she had the opportunity to meet her. ”
"I see. ”
Later, my mother was also very satisfied with Miss Wan'er. Therefore, I came to propose marriage today with a bride price. ”
"However, I am only Miss Wan'er's master, not her parents, and I still can't make decisions about this kind of marriage. Murong Yingxue pretended to be embarrassed and said.
Zhong Jin is not an idle person, that day in Zangwu Mountain, this Murong Yingxue used a secret trick on himself, which shows that this person is not a kind person.
Before coming, Zhong Jin thought of all this, so he was prepared.
"Master Murong, although you are not Wan'er's parents, I still understand the principle of being a teacher for one day and a father for life. By the way, I heard that Master has always been obsessed with spells, especially night raids, and it just so happens that we have a book at home that specializes in night raids, so I brought it with me this time. A small gift is not a tribute, and I hope the master will accept it with a smile. ”
After speaking, Zhong Jin handed over a book.
"At the same time, I also brought three hundred taels of gold and some gold and silver jewelry as a dowry. ”
Seeing such a formation in front of him, the most important thing was the spell book, which made Murong Yingxue's heart move.
"Well, I'll do my best. ”
"In this way, there is Master Lao. After about half a month, I will come to my door to marry, and then I will come back to thank Master again. ”
After Zhong Jin left, Shizu suddenly walked out from behind the screen.
It turned out that Shizu had always been inside.
"After so many years, we are still going to meet the Zhong family. Shizu said.
"I had to meet sooner or later, but I didn't expect that the time would be so early, and they took the initiative to come to the door. Unintentionally inserted into the willows, it seems that my move back then was not wrong after all. ”
Murong Yingxue said with a sneer.
However, all of this was heard by the wild goose hiding outside the door.
