Chapter 81 Getting Married
Qi Heng sat alone in the private seat of the restaurant, his face was gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Gu Tingye opened the curtain and walked in, his face full of spring breeze.

"Hey, Yuan Ruo." Gu Tingye greeted him pretending to be okay.

Qi Heng glanced at Gu Tingye and snorted coldly:

"Second Uncle came so late, you are really busy."

Gu Tingye glanced at Qi Heng, then said:

"Little Grandpa has been named on the Gold List, I'm so happy and congratulated."

Qi Heng didn't speak, and then stared at Gu Tingye.

Gu Tingye was still pretending to be stupid, and said with a hippie smile:
"Why is the little father-in-law so sullen? You're not happy."

Qi Heng couldn't hold back, he patted the table and said:

"You clearly know that I miss Minglan in my heart, so why did you agree to the Sheng family to marry Minglan?"

"You still think about Minglan, I don't know about that. I only know that after you lost your wife, you studied hard behind closed doors. I thought you let it go, but I didn't expect you to remember it. Don't blame me for this. Something happened by mistake." Gu Tingye quickly waved his hand and said innocently.

"I heard that you originally wanted to take the daughter of the Sheng family's concubine, but you have already promised it to someone else, so you chose Minglan. She is just a pretense in your eyes, so let her go."

Gu Tingye put down his wine glass and said slowly:

"It was you who gave up on him first. We persuaded you back then, telling you not to be afraid of King Yong. Yuan Qian and I will help you. It was you who couldn't make up your mind. You gave up on her. Are you blaming me now?"

"Sorry, I'm sorry, I'm late, but why did you talk about me?" Yao Yi also opened the curtain and walked in. Qi Heng originally invited him, but something happened in Kaifeng Mansion temporarily, so he was late.

"Yuan Qian, why do you want your eldest lady to help him come to propose marriage, you know it well"

"Know what?" Yao Yi interrupted.

Qi Heng's words were blocked in his throat all of a sudden, and he couldn't speak anymore.

"Yuan Ruo, remember what I told you back then, I said that if you shrink back, you and Ming Lan will have no chance in this life." Yao Yi said.

"I agreed to it for the sake of the Qi State Mansion and Minglan, you all know that." Qi Heng was sweating profusely.

"How long has the county lord been dead, and I haven't seen you make any moves." Gu Tingye said this.

"Only if I pass the Jinshi exam can I have the face to propose marriage."

"You want face, so what about Minglan? Back then, when the incident between you caused a lot of uproar, it didn't matter if you turned around and married the county magistrate. How many people talked about Minglan behind her back at that time."

Qi Heng was a little ashamed, and explained:

"I'm not doing it for face. Last time I made a hasty promise, but it ended up hurting her heart. This time I want to be sure before I propose marriage."

Seeing Qi Heng's appearance, Gu Tingye comforted him:

"I'm not blaming you anymore, it's just that you didn't make a move. Don't blame me for being a latecomer."

"But you don't have to have her." Qi Heng snapped.

"How do you know I don't want her?" Gu Tingye said in a deep voice.

When Qi Heng heard this, he felt as if he had been betrayed by the person he trusted the most, so he stood up and said:

"It turns out that you have already taken a fancy to her."

Gu Tingye sighed and said frankly:

"Now that I've come to this point, I'll tell you clearly. At the beginning, when you two had friendship with each other, I wanted to fulfill you, and I specially brought Yuan Qian on. At that time, Yuan Qian was the censor, and I had someone else. Things may not be impossible, but you are soft-tempered and can't handle things, so I made up my mind to marry Minglan. If you ask Yuan Qian about this, he knows it from beginning to end."

Yao Yi had been eating all the time just now, and he didn't eat just after get off work. Seeing that something happened to him, he put down his chopsticks, sighed and said:

"Yuan Ruo, I have witnessed everything between you and Ming Lan with my own eyes. My eldest lady is close to Ming Lan, and that's why I am willing to go through this muddy water. Do you really know Ming Lan? Who is the Ming Lan you like? Is it really Minglan, or the sixth younger sister you've seen?"

"Isn't Minglan just Minglan, what's real or fake?"

"Ming Lan has been cautious in the Sheng family since she was a child. Is that well-behaved and gentle sixth sister you saw Ming Lan? No, that's just the sixth girl of the Sheng family. She has known the difficult times since she was a child. I lost my mother when I was young, so I don’t feel safe, and I hope to live an unfettered life, which you can’t do.”

"How do you know I can't do it?" Qi Heng said unconvinced.

"You can't even disobey your parents' orders, how can you give her an unfettered life? You have given up on her once, and you expect her to give you another chance?" Gu Tingye interjected.

In fact, Gu Tingye knew from the beginning to the end that Qi Heng's threat was not even as great as He Hongwen's. This was already doomed when Qi Heng gave up.

"In order to marry Ming Lan, I have been fighting to the death for the past few years, and this is the result. Otherwise, Yuan Qian and his eldest lady would be willing to help me?" Gu Tingye continued.

"I don't believe it, I don't believe it." Qi Heng clenched his fists, turned around and left.

Yao Yi sighed, the word "love" hurts people.Having said that, these two people are also, a fourteen-year-old girl let him die, in modern times it is a matter of puppy love.Especially Gu Tingye, who was a full ten years older than him, would be executed directly in future generations.

Yao Yi looked back, and Gu Tingye was looking at him suspiciously.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Yao Yi asked puzzled.

"How do you know Minglan so well?" Gu Tingye asked.

Yao Yi rolled his eyes, got up and left.He is his wife's man, so is it possible that he still has feelings for a little girl?I am not these two perverts.

"Hey, make it clear, don't go." Gu Tingye shouted.

Yao Yi didn't even turn his head, and just wandered back home.

Qi Heng was shut down there, and fell seriously ill when he returned home.Even the selection of officials for the new division Jinshi did not catch up.Yao Yi didn't see him when he went to visit the doctor, obviously he also blamed Yao Yi.It's no wonder that they are about to get what they want, but in the end they interfered, and everyone has resentment.

Of course Yao Yi didn't blame him, and even felt a little bit of guilt in his heart. He and Minglan were really not suitable, so he had a clear conscience about this matter, but he felt a little sorry for using Qi Heng next.

Now the Sheng family is very powerful, father and brother are now fifth-rank officials, and in the eyes of today's officials, son-in-law and daughter-in-law are either noble or clean, and the in-law Yao Yili has made great contributions in supporting him, coupled with Gu Tingye who also made great contributions, the people in Beijing The rich and powerful will never lose face, but Ming Lan's marriage is very lively.

The guests in front were crowded like a cloud, and Shulan was also called away by Hualan Rulan of the Sheng family, while Yao Yi hid quietly behind, and happened to bump into Gu Tingye's stepmother. Speaking of which, it was the first time he had seen this What about the big white lotus.

At this time, Xiao Qin was standing alone in the corridor, looking at the lively scene outside with a smile. No matter who looked at her, she felt that smile was genuine, and she felt that she was a mother who was really happy for her son's marriage.

Under the setting sun, half of her face showed a loving and kind smile, and half of her face was buried in the dark and she couldn't see clearly.
