Xu Si'an nodded, at the moment when he whipped the whip, he suddenly turned over from the horse, strode up to Zhao Jing, picked her up by the waist, turned to the screen wall, held her face and kissed her. up.

With the tip of his tongue rolling over Zhao Jing's wet eyes, Xu Si'an held her in his arms and said, "I'm leaving, and this home will be handed over to you."

Zhao Jing sighed, let go of Xu Si'an's hand, the armor on his body had a cold touch, and slowly slipped through her fingertips.Zhao Jing turned around, looked at Xu Si'an and said, "Master Hou, the old lady and I are waiting for you to come back."

The moment the man strode away in Lie Chenguang and got on his horse, his gaze was firmly locked on Zhao Jing.A hearty and confident smile curled up on the corner of his mouth, and he left with a whip.

Zhao Jing stood at the door for a long time, watching Xu Si'an's figure leave, she suddenly realized at this moment that she was leaving in such a hurry that she didn't put on her robe.

Zhao Jing returned to Ziwei Garden to freshen up, Xu Si'an had just left, she was not in the mood to teach the children, besides, Zhao Jing had to take time to deal with the things he explained yesterday.It was time for the old lady to get up at this time, and she went to Songhe Hall to pay her respects with her heart in mind. Mother Zhang said that the old lady had a sleepless night last night, and she hadn't gotten up yet.

Zhao Jing waited in the Songhe Hall for a while, the maids in the inner room said that the old lady was awake, she followed the maids into the inner room, the old lady Xu's eyes were red, and when she saw Zhao Jing standing in front of her, she looked a little better again, and pulled Holding her hand, she said: "I heard that he left early in the morning, so I deliberately didn't get up to see him off, it made me sad again."

Now she regards Zhao Jing as her daughter-in-law, and she is willing to say any thoughtful words.Zhao Jing took the hot towel wrung out by the servant girl and handed it to the old lady. While combing her hair, she said: "Don't worry, old lady, I will send the Marquis off. He is so majestic. This is the first time I saw him wearing armor." look!"

Mrs. Xu laughed when she heard this, and nodded vigorously: "You also think he looks good in armor? He is better than his father. I heard that sons are like mothers. Doesn't he look like me? gone?"

Zhao Jing nodded with a smile and said, "Master Hou is indeed like an old lady. When an old lady was young, she must have had the same elegance."

The old lady Xu was so amused that she giggled, but she was still nagging: "When I returned to Zhuangzi, he said that he would send someone to your house to propose a marriage. He actually has such a hasty temper that he announced it in front of the servants."

After the old lady finished speaking, she turned to look at Zhao Jing, stretched out her hand to hold her delicate and smooth hands in her palm, looked at her and said, "Don't blame him, I delayed him, he is already so old , and there is no one who knows the cold and the hot to serve by his side."

These words really made Zhao Jing's cheeks blush, she didn't know what to say for a while, she lowered her head and said: "The war is urgent, Lord Hou probably also for the sake of the overall situation." Now that the duck is cooked, Zhao Jing can't fly anymore, What else can I do otherwise?

Mrs. Xu laughed and told Mother Zhang: "Go outside first, find a reliable matchmaker, and go to Mr. Zhao's house to propose marriage."

Zhao Jing pursed her lips and smiled, she didn't know how Yuan Shi would entertain this matchmaker, if she was swept out with a broom, it would be embarrassing.Zhao Jing thought for a while and said, "Old lady, in fact, a matchmaker went to my house yesterday..."

"What? He has already sent someone to propose a marriage? He is too nonsense, he didn't even say anything to my old lady?" Before Zhao Jing finished speaking, the old lady started nagging, and Zhao Jing had to wait for her to chatter. After finishing talking, he continued: "It wasn't sent by Master Hou. Since even the old lady doesn't know who sent it, it's a bit strange?"

"What's so strange?" Mrs. Xu was a big-hearted woman, and she asked after hearing this: "Since we have proposed marriage, let's take care of the rest of the matter as well, and when Master Hou comes back, you can get married. "

Zhao Jing took a stone blue plain forehead with blue jade inlaid, put it on for Mrs. Xu, and said: "The matchmaker told my sister-in-law that the old lady wanted me to be a concubine for Lord Hou."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xu immediately stood up from the stool. Before Zhao Jing could withdraw her hand, she almost hit Mrs. Xu on the head. She quickly withdrew her hand, and Mrs. Xu looked dazed. Looking at Zhao Jing with a bleary look, he asked, "Is there such a thing? Why didn't I know?"

At this time, Zhao Jing already had a [-]% or [-]% success in her heart. The person who can do this must be someone from the Houfu. Naturally, Mama Zhang can't do it, but Mama Han and Sun Yu'e didn't follow the old lady. Come back together, are they waiting for something?
Zhao Jing understood, she smiled and said to the old lady: "Since it is a misunderstanding, the old lady should not take it to heart."

Mrs. Xu sat down concentrating. She saw the neither humble nor overbearing expression on Zhao Jing's face from the mirror, and she suddenly realized.
