Chapter 180 Two: Forced Marriage

The Western Chu State emphasized martial arts, and there were many officials' children who were capable of writing and martial arts, and Ah Shan's momentum and ability were in line with this.

Official son?Amnesia?Strong martial arts?A strange feeling suddenly grew in Mu Lan's heart, as if a thought flashed through her mind, but she couldn't grasp it.

"Miss Xiyan, did you think of something?" Seeing that she was so dazed that she forgot to move her chopsticks, Xiao Chan only thought that she had heard some key points from Ah Shan's words, and hurriedly asked.

As soon as she made a sound, those floating feelings in Mu Lan's mind instantly disappeared, and she could no longer find them.Seeing Xiaochan's expectant eyes, he couldn't help but say apologetically: "No, but I'm going to live here for the time being anyway, maybe he can slowly remember something else."[

Hearing this, Xiaochan was slightly disappointed, but she also breathed a sigh of relief.Mu Lan saw it in her eyes, and immediately understood her guess in her heart. It seems that Miss Xiaochan must love this Ah Shan very much, right?Therefore, I hope that he can quickly retrieve his memory, but also fear that he will leave after remembering everything.

After dinner, Mu Lan returned to her room, thinking about Yi Xifeng's itinerary, the time it would take to go back and forth to the temple, at least the day after tomorrow before she could come back.Tomorrow she can ask Ah Shan to lead her back to the cabin to leave a letter for Xifeng, and then wait for him to meet at Luojiazhuang.

Maybe it was because of overwork today, Mulan soon became tired again, and fell asleep after lying on the bed for a while.

Until the noisy noise outside woke her up, it was already bright outside.I could hear the beating of gongs and drums accompanied by the sound of suona, as if it came from not far outside the door.

Mingming Xiaochan also said last night that there are only four people left in this village, how could it be so lively?Mu Lan hurriedly dressed in doubt, and went out to have a look.

During the daytime, the mansion looked more chic and elegant. Mu Lan didn't care to appreciate it, so she went straight to the front door, and saw a crowd of people around the door, several gift boxes were placed on the ground, the symphony band was playing vigorously, and a matchmaker dressed as The middle-aged woman was talking to Xiaochan, while Ah Shan stood between them, protecting Xiaochan behind her.

"Miss Luo, I'm conveying the meaning of Villa Master Pang. You also know the power of Master Pang in this area. Now you ask me to carry this gift back. I'm afraid it's not easy to handle?" The matchmaker completely regarded Ah Shan's Existence, said arrogantly to Xiaochan behind.

Ashan didn't wait for Xiaochan to answer, and replied in a cold voice: "Then go back and tell your owner Pang that Xiaochan has already engaged, so he doesn't have to waste his time in vain."

As soon as these words came out, Xiaochan behind her immediately blushed, but looked at him with joy, without refuting.

When the matchmaker heard this, she immediately lowered her face, looked at Ah Shan suspiciously, and said, "Where did you come from, a wild boy? I, Aunt Zhang, know all about whether a girl in this ten-mile-eight village has ever made an appointment. It's useless to use this trick to fool me."

Hearing this, Xiao Chan stood up and said, "He's right, I'm already engaged, and just yesterday, he was my fiancé-in-law. So, we can't accept this bride price."

Matchmaker Zhang is not willing to let it go, she simply played a joke and said: "You said you were engaged, then well, let me ask you, which matchmaker did you hire? This matchmaker does not get married, there is no matchmaker, this marriage is a marriage. Uncountable."

After all, Xiaochan is a girl who has not left the court, so she was stopped by her for a while.When Mu Lan heard this, she couldn't help but stepped forward, and said, "I'm their matchmaker."

When Matchmaker Zhang saw that another person had been killed to spoil her, her anger surged upwards. She turned around and wanted to give the other party a bad start, but she didn't expect that the other party was actually a young girl.Not only is she young, but she is also so beautiful that people dare not look up at her. The nobleness all over her body made her choke in her throat.

"You... who are you? Looking at your age, you haven't left the cabinet yet, right? Hmph, seeing you are so new, you outsiders had better not meddle in the affairs of our Linyang County!" Matchmaker Zhang held back For a long time, he threatened coldly.

How could Mulan take her words seriously, and said with a sneer: "What's the use of being old? How can you be older than your status? It's just a small county in Linyang. You should go back and inquire carefully. How does Desheng Bank compare to his owner Pang?"

Matchmaker Zhang was intimidated by her aura for a while, but after all, she is the one who relies on her words to earn a living. Seeing that the situation was not right, she turned her face and said: "It seems that the Luo family is climbing high branches. The relationship is good. Since the marriage If the negotiation fails, then pay off the debt owed.”

"Debt? When did I owe you a debt?" Xiaochan was dumbfounded by her words.

"I thought you didn't know this, but your father owed it when he was alive." Zhang Matchmaker said, winking at the big man who came with him, and the other party immediately took out a paper contract, saying: "Written in black and white, it says Your father borrowed 500 taels of silver from Mr. Pang when he was doing business the year before last, plus interest, it should be 800 taels now, right? You don’t have to marry, just pay off the debt.”[

"It's impossible. My father's business money is all saved from the income in the village, and he doesn't need to borrow money from others." As an only child, Xiaochan doesn't know everything about the family's business and economy.

Matchmaker Zhang seemed to be sure that she wouldn't believe her, so she snorted coldly: "There is your father's handprint on it, and our county magistrate was invited as a guarantee. gone."

Xiaochan was stunned for a moment, and even Mu Lan was a little helpless, and it was only natural to pay off the debt, not to mention, the IOU seemed to be solid evidence.

"I'll leave the bride price here. If you can't repay the money within three days, get ready to get on the sedan chair." Matchmaker Zhang proudly raised her head at Mulan, and said to the band who brought the gift behind her: "Let's go." .”

As they spoke, the crowd scattered away with whistling and beating all the way.

When those people walked away, Ah Shan first broke the silence, and said to Xiaochan in a startling way: "Let's get married."

Xiaochan was startled, she couldn't believe her ears, her eyes were filled with joy and worry, but she still shook her head and said, "You don't know that Master Pang is so powerful, he won't just let me go. "

Mu Lan was moved by Ah Shan's decision, and couldn't help asking: "Who is this Zhuang Zhuang? He came here to propose a marriage with an IOU. It seems that he came prepared."

Mentioning this person, Xiaochan's face flashed some fear, and said: "I have never seen it before, I only know that this person has a big business, bought many Zhuangzi, and even those who are officials are eager Him. Three years ago, he came to my father and wanted to buy Zhuangzi at a low price, but my father naturally refused. Ordinarily, it is impossible for my father to borrow money from such a person. "

"If the IOU is fake, wouldn't it mean that even the magistrate of the county colluded with him to give false testimony?" Mu Lan analyzed, if this is the case, it will be difficult to handle.

Xiaochan's eyes were red with anxiety, especially after Ah Shan said that to her.

Seeing her like this, Ah Shan's eyes were also painful, "It would be great if I could remember, maybe I can give you a place to go."

Hearing what he said, Xiaochan was so moved that she shed tears, she turned her head and blinked away the tears quietly, and said: "Last year's harvest was robbed by those bandits, and when the servants fled, they also took away a lot of property. There is not much cash left now, if it is not possible, the only option is to sell the property, and there should be no problem in repaying the account, but... it is just the property of our Luo family for hundreds of years, and it will no longer exist.
