"Is that true? Master Song wants to marry my younger sister?" Qiu Nanpeng realized after hearing Liu Yilan's words.

Liu Yilan said without hesitation, "It's absolutely unmistakable."

Qiu Nanpeng pondered for a moment, then scratched his ears and said, "What does Yi Niang mean, which younger sister is going to be married? At present, the only younger sisters of marriageable age in the mansion are Qiu Lingxiao and Zhu Yumian. I won't mention the other offshoots." , Sending it over is not even qualified for a concubine."

"That's it..." Liu Yilan was about to say something when a flustered communication came from outside.

"Report Ma'am, Young Master. Outside... the Prime Minister sent a dowry gift, saying that it is a low engagement, asking to marry our young lady."

"Why did you come so soon?" Qiu Nanpeng was extremely surprised, turned his head and said, "She really has such a plan."

"The Prime Minister is here in person?" Liu Yilan beamed with joy, "Hurry up and invite people in, and you must not neglect."

The boy who sent the message said: "No, it was two messengers in black who came. They brought a team of men and horses, carried a few large boxes of dowry gifts, and put them at the door, saying they came for his master. The doorman asked who his master was, He called the prime minister Song Jinsong."

"I didn't come here in person, that's normal. After all, what is Mr. Song's identity?" Qiu Nanpeng nodded in understanding.

Liu Yilan felt uneasy for a while, since she was asking for marriage, she should be more sincere.But when he thought of the power of that person covering the sky with only one hand, he swallowed his anger silently, with a smile on his face, and asked.

"Then are these two noble envoys still there? Where are they now? There are good people here to entertain you. Would you like to serve tea in the inner hall?"

The boy shook his head: "Housekeeper Xue has been missing for several days, and the housekeeper on behalf of him couldn't make up his mind. After a moment of hesitation, the two messengers sent someone to put down their things, turned around and left."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Yilan was dumbfounded, and so was Qiu Nanpeng.

Liu Yilan: "They didn't say which lady they are asking for?"

Not only them, but the servant also shook his head, with a puzzled look on his face: "I didn't say anything, I just put down my things and left."

Liu Yilan gritted her teeth, and asked unwillingly, "You didn't even leave a name sticker asking for marriage?"

A job offer usually comes with a name sticker.The name sticker includes the number of betrothal gifts sent, who to marry, including the birth date and so on.Generally, only the main room and concubine who are on the table will be hired. If the natal family agrees to the marriage, the dowry will be accepted.If you do not agree, the name stickers and dowry gifts will be returned in full.

When the prime minister was the coveted object of so many people in the capital, beauties, talented women and talented men secretly gave him a glance, which one of them was welcomed in by her eight sedan chairs as he wished?

They told her that the gate of the three-foot-high prime minister's mansion was closed, and no ghosts and snakes could enter.

With the name sticker, it is naturally clear at a glance who the other party is asking for and who is coming.

The boy thought about it for a long time, and suddenly realized that he remembered something, and nodded his head like a pounding garlic.

"Ao Liu stayed. It seems that there is a name sticker and a letter, which were taken over by the housekeeper for safekeeping."

Liu Yilan glared at the young servant, who shrank his neck innocently and did not dare to speak again.

Qiu Nanpeng: "Where are the surrogate family members?"

As soon as the words fell, an old voice came from the door.

"The little one is here."

"Ma'am, Young Master. The letter and name are posted here, please have a look."

Liu Yilan took two quick steps, before Qiu Nanpeng took the name sticker, regardless of the matriarch's dignity, she couldn't wait to snatch the name sticker with the gold-sealed plastic cover.

Qiu Nanpeng was slow for a moment, and instead of arguing with his mother, he took the letter presented by the housekeeper at the same time.

The two unfolded at the same time, and their faces froze in unison.

Liu Yilan's smile froze on her face, her mask was extremely ugly, cracked inch by inch.The hand holding the name sticker was so hard that I wanted to tear it to pieces.

"How could it be..." Qiu Nanpeng hissed, puzzled.

This expansion was also unexpected to him.

……

Soon, the news of the prime minister's appointment to the Yongjin Hou Mansion spread like wildfire, and rumors spread outside.

There were a few porters, scholars and small traders sitting in the tea shop, some of them sipped the tea in the bowl, and started chatting with each other when they had no work to do.

"If you say that this Yongjin Hou's Mansion is really lively this year... It's not just a funeral, but a wedding. Is this going to happen one after another, is it too anxious?"

"I don't know which young lady the prime minister is asking for in such a hurry."

Another person sincerely said: "I don't care which one it is, anyway, no matter which one it is, it can't compare to the celestial appearance of the prime minister, it's really amazing..."

The eyes of the rest of the people showed a look of a hero who saw the same thing, but they didn't dare to say it out loud: "You better don't speak lies, lest you get burned and hurt us. How can I judge that lord and talk about her romantic affairs?" Elegant things are enough. Besides... it's better not to talk too much."

The one who spoke earlier scoffed, disdainful of whether they dared to admit it or not, and drank the tea in the bowl with a heroic posture of a cow drink.

Another person came out to smooth things over: "What you are talking about is what you are talking about. Those things are far away from us, so what are you doing with your leisurely mind? Anyway, it doesn't matter who the prime minister is going to marry, they are all the rich and precious golden branches and jade leaves of the Houfu. .”

"Speaking of this, a few days ago I heard that at the funeral of the old Marquis of Yongjin, a new young lady came out, the head of all the young ladies. I heard that in the past because of her weak body and illness, outsiders didn't see much, so I don't know known."

"You don't mean that the prime minister couldn't wait to hire this mysterious eldest lady because he wanted to marry him?" Someone snorted.

"Who knows?" The skinny peddler shrugged.

The other person waved his hand and said proudly: "I bet ten cents that the Prime Minister will definitely not marry this sick lady! Does anyone dare to bet with me?"

Just at this moment, a discordant voice broke in.

"My master bet 1000 taels that the prime minister is going to marry this young lady, Qiu Zhishu from Yongjin Hou Mansion, Miss Shu!"

There was no sound in the small teahouse for an instant, and everyone stretched their necks, looking towards the sound.After seeing the person who came, he called the person sitting on the horse as the master.In an instant, his body became stiff and he couldn't speak for a long time.

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

The person they were talking about just now appeared in front of them, and the final decision was made in person.

"I have met the prime minister!"

After the brief astonishment of the crowd, a large group of teahouses, including those around them, knelt down and saluted the current prime minister.

The few people who had the most heated discussion in the tea shop were so nervous now that they didn't dare to lift their heads.

"Who said she belonged to Miss Sick?"

With a simple question, everyone's expressions changed.

Especially the person who spoke before, his face turned pale for an instant, his hands trembled and trembled, even if he didn't admit it, the obscure eyes turned by the others would betray him directly.That man thought he was doomed today, and was waiting with his eyes closed.

Unexpectedly, a sentence fell lightly.

"It's not Miss Sick, it's Miss Chang. I'll remember it later."

When the man raised his head, the horse's hooves had gradually moved away, and the guards also withdrew.The magical scene that happened in the little tea shop was later adapted and processed by countless folk talents, and countless versions were derived.

But this widely circulated love story imagined by the people was shattered before it took root.

Because in the afternoon when the betrothal gift was delivered that day, Renyong Jinhou's mansion returned the things as they were, and it did not exceed three hours before and after.

Even a blind person can tell that this relationship is not going to work out.

The dignified prime minister of a country's important ministers, with the gift of a regular wife, first offered a letter of appointment, and asked to marry a daughter of the Houfu, who was in name only, but was rejected.

I don't know if it's the Hou's reluctance to bear the girl, or other meanings, everyone really can't figure it out.

……

On the day of the appointment, the incident of the name post spread to Luoxia Academy, and Qiu Lingxiao's wan smile disappeared for a moment.

The cold eyes looked like poisonous snakes watching Qiu Zhishu, who was so busy that he was sweating profusely. His eyes came inch by inch from the rolling sweat beads to his perfectly curved, healthy and flushed face.

Maybe, she should destroy her pretty face so that she won't be coveted?

Even if the mother doesn't marry her off, someone will still ask for her.

As if the unique treasure was missed, Qiu Lingxiao was not as proud as usual, but became flustered.Not only because he hasn't gotten tired of playing, but also because the person who is thinking about her things this time may not have a good chance of winning?

"...Ashu, come here." Qiu Lingxiao's voice tensed audibly, and she began to panic.

Qiu Zhishu picked up half of the nocks before he was called out.He raised his sleeve and wiped the hot sweat from his little face on his arm, and walked to the shade: "Master, what's the matter? What's the order?"

"I..." Qiu Lingxiao hesitated to speak, and blinked, his eyes fixed on Qiu Zhishu's bewildered eyes.Can I draw two knives on your face? I couldn't say it for a long time.

"Huh?" Seeing her dumbfounded, Qiu Zhishu waved his hand in front of Qiu Lingxiao's eyes.But she didn't know that her own actions looked so stupid, and she was full of stupidity.

Qiu Lingxiao couldn't speak, nor could he move his hands.

An unreasonable burst of irritability slowly spread from the bottom of my heart, biting my heart.Shocking the back of the head and controlling the nerves, she didn't know why she was angry, as if she was sick.Thinking about the person in front of me, the more I think about it, the more uncomfortable it becomes.

This person... is obviously extremely shrewd, and has more scheming plans than anyone else, and his superficial obedience is just to escape.There is no loyalty, no obedience, and she doesn't need it.

Anyway, it's just a toy to pass the time, so she can play with it for a while while she likes it, and then destroy it when it reaches the commanding heights, and throw it away at will after completing the most valuable moment of a toy.

But with just such an existence, how could she be shaken and softened for a moment?

"You canceled dinner today!" Qiu Lingxiao turned around after saying this and was about to go out to find Liu Yilan. At the same time, she couldn't believe that she let her go so easily.

But Qiu Zhishu reacted even more than her, and he was so courageous that he blocked people: "The head can be cut off and the blood can bleed, and you can't miss a meal."

Qiu Lingxiao finally satisfied her, so that she couldn't move, and then locked in Luoshuangxuan, making her unable to go anywhere.

"I'm going to find my mother."

When Luoshuangxuan was locked, Qiu Lingxiao took a step with eyes full of hostility, "She can't marry anyone without my permission."
