Son of Heaven Assistance System

Chapter 199
"He... is very handsome, and his demeanor is quite like everyone's, but is there an old acquaintance in the family?"

When Wei Lang was mentioned, Bai Xiannan's cheeks turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As someone who has been there, Uncle Bai can see the emotion in Bai Xiannan's heart at a glance.

I couldn't help but feel relieved, feeling that my thoughts have already become more than half.

"That's right. Wei Lang's father was born in the Xu family of the Four Great Aristocratic Family. Although his father acted a little absurdly. Let’s talk, Wei Lang himself is the best in terms of knowledge, style of conversation, and appearance.”

Uncle Bai paused suddenly as he spoke, and looked at him with a half-smile. He was already blushing and hazy-eyed.

It wasn't until Bai Xiannan realized that he had unconsciously revealed the posture of a little girl, and lowered his head in shame.

Uncle Bai smiled teasingly and continued: "Wei Lang came to the capital this time because he was ordered to be an official. If there is no accident, he will basically not leave the capital for nearly ten years. What's more, Wei Lang Lang now has neither a family nor a marriage contract."

As soon as Uncle Bai finished speaking, Bai Xiannan's face, which was originally flushed with shyness, was already pale.

She is not a fool, otherwise she would not have been favored by her aunt since she was a child.

She naturally understood the meaning of her father's words at this time.

Bai Xiannan didn't dare to look up, she opened her mouth, but only her lips trembled silently.

After a while, he said slowly and with difficulty: "Father, but... But, Father, my daughter is already engaged."

At first, Uncle Bai thought that Bai Xiannan bowed his head for a long time because he was shy, but he kept watching happily, feeling a sense of pride in our family having a young girl.

But this is what Bai Xiannan was thinking? !

Uncle Bai's smile subsided in an instant following Bai Xiannan's words.

"You said, but the concubine nephew of your second aunt's family?"

Bai Xiannan silently lowered her head a little lower, and sadness spread around her.

Uncle Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

He stared at Bai Xiannan who was still bowing his head seriously.

"Idiot! When did you have a marriage contract? You and the concubine of the Wang family have never even passed the six rites. How can you say that you are engaged? Do you know what the first of the six rites is?"

"Na Cai! Has the royal family sent a matchmaker to propose a marriage? How can I, as a father, not know about it? Even if I have been here, I can refuse it. Even Na Cai never had one. What a wasteful marriage contract! "

Bai Xiannan had raised her head again at this moment, and was staring blankly at her father.

From a moral point of view, she felt that her father was making excuses. Although she and the young master of the Wang family had not passed the six rituals, in fact, the marriage contract between them had already been acquiesced by both the Bai and Wang families.

Before, it was just because she and the young master of the Wang family were still young, so Yu Liuli wasn't too anxious about these procedural matters.

And she had heard a few days ago that her mother had already nodded to let the Wang family come to visit, and the Wang family reckoned that they were just waiting for a good day to come to the door for the acceptance ceremony, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, in short It won't be long.

Even her wedding dress is half prepared.

That was the wedding dress prepared for the young master of the Wang family...

However, Bai Xiannan couldn't help agreeing with Uncle Bai's words.

She clearly remembered the throbbing and joy that Wei Lang brought her, as well as Wei Lang's smile and warm words.

She also wanted to recall what kind of person the young master of the Wang family was, but the appearance and voice of the young master of the Wang family were completely blurred at this moment.

He was as ordinary as everyone who had only met her once.

How can such a person who has no impression be with her for a lifetime?
Bai Xiannan's gaze suddenly became firm.

"Father, you are right. I have never been engaged to the young master of the Wang family. What I like now is Wei Lang. He is the one I should be with for the rest of my life!"

Uncle Bai smiled, Bai Xiannan's attitude made him very satisfied, not pedantic!

Bai Xiannan was also happy, but she was still a little uneasy because she thought of the eldest lady.

So Bai Xiannan said again: "It's just father, the matter with the Wang family, it's mother's intention after all, my daughter is worried about mother..."

"Xiannan, I'm your father. Your mother's decision on your marriage is not up to you alone. Don't worry, as long as you don't get confused, I will naturally persuade your mother."

"Thank you father."

With Uncle Bai's guarantee, Bai Xiannan immediately felt at ease.

Thinking that her fiancé-in-law was Wei Lang, Bai Xiannan instantly regained her youngest daughter's posture.

...

When Jing Wu knew that there was a change in Bai Xiannan's marriage, it was already a few days later.

The eldest lady didn't tell Jing Wu about this incident on purpose, but when the second lady came to the Zhining Courtyard and mentioned it incidentally, she didn't shy away from Jing Wu.

According to what the first lady and the second lady said.

Uncle Bai did not choose to have a head-on dispute with the eldest lady on this matter. Instead, he informed the old man and the old lady of his idea the next morning after his conversation with Bai Xiannan.

Aristocratic families pay attention to vertical and horizontal alliances, and the most effective means of alliance is marriage.

The Wang family and the Bai family have been relatives by marriage for more than a hundred years. Even without Bai Xiannan, there are still many bonds that can unite the Wang family and the Bai family. The second wife and Bai Jiyi are the best representatives among them.

But the Wei family, or the Xu family behind the Wei family, is different.

The Xu family has always been in a peaceful corner, and they can do whatever they want in their children's marriage. It is not easy to form an in-law relationship with the Xu family, but the appearance of Wei Lang this time is indeed a turning point.

If Bai Xiannan and Wei Lang can unite, the Bai family can use Wei Lang to unite with the Xu family.

This is naturally much better than icing on the cake with the Wang family.

Moreover, the argument that Uncle Bai used to persuade Bai Xiannan had some truth to it, even if it was a fallacy.

The old man and the old lady were persuaded by Uncle Bai.

When the first lady and the second lady were summoned, and when the first lady and the second lady arrived at Yanhe Hall, Uncle Bai had long since disappeared.

This verbal engagement is up to the old man and the old lady to renege on it, and it is useless for the eldest lady and the second lady to object any more.

As for the Second Madam's initiative to come to Zhining Courtyard today, it was the news from the Wang family.

Sitting in the Zhining Courtyard, the second wife said rather embarrassingly: "My nephew has no blessings. After all, his background is a bit worse. He is not as good as the young master of the Wei family. I just received a reply from my natal brother. He didn't have a big opinion."

Speaking of this, the second lady suddenly paused and laughed at herself.

"...Fortunately, I sent this letter in time. If it's another day in the evening, they will come to propose marriage, and then it will be a joke."

The eldest lady patted the second lady's hand as a sign of comfort.

The second wife forced a smile: "Hey, look at what my sister-in-law and I are saying and doing. It's not what you want to do. Father and mother have already spoken, how can we, as daughters-in-law, say anything?"

"It's just that the Wei family child, is it really that good?"

The eldest lady sighed, then nodded again: "It's a bit outstanding."

The second lady continued: "Then he is happy with Xiannan?"
