Chapter 149 He Wants to Propose Marriage
"Okay. Listen to Miss's orders." Even Huo Mingzhu didn't ask where he was going, Fang Tieyi responded decisively, his eyes were fearless, but indifferent.

"Miss, why did you let him..." Su Yu was extremely dissatisfied and muttered in a low voice.

Huo Mingzhu sighed, and said to Sulu: "It's more convenient for him to go with me at that place. If you are surprised, you may break yourself again. Of course, you also have your task tomorrow. Later, I will Let me tell you more. Now, go to your cousin and ask her to enjoy the flowers and play chess in the garden."

"Okay! I'll go right away!" As if to fight for favor, Su Hui never agreed so simply.After agreeing, he rushed out immediately, as if he was afraid that Fang Tieyi would snatch it.

As soon as Sulu left, there were only Fang Tieyi and Huo Mingzhu in the small garden of Chenxiang Garden.

Huo Mingzhu stood up from the couch, looked at Fang Tieyi for a while, and then said unhurriedly: "You are a smart person, you should know that I pulled Su Ling away to talk to you alone."

"Yes, Fang Tieyi understands." Fang Tieyi said bluntly.

Huo Mingzhu smiled: "In front of smart people, I won't be sloppy. You know, although I dare to use you, I may not trust you. No one will let a servant who has only been accepted for less than two hours. Help yourself to do the shady things. But, I hope that before long, you will be my right-hand man."

After hearing this, Fang Tieyi knelt down on one knee: "Fang Tieyi will prove his loyalty."

Huo Mingzhu didn't help him up either, and let him kneel, she smiled: "Didn't the opportunity come? Tomorrow, you follow me to the Goulan Garden in the city. I need to go there and wait for someone."

"Goulan Garden...that kind of place..." Fang Tieyi frowned.

Everyone knows that Goulan Court is a famous gold-selling cave in Shangjing. It is different from the many brothels in the Fireworks and Willow Lane in Shangjing. The people serving in Goulan Court are all young men, and most of the people looking for fun are well-known dudes in Beijing. children.It is difficult for ordinary people to even marry a wife. How can they have the money to come here to enjoy themselves?

What Fang Tieyi was worried about was that the Goulan Garden was not suitable for a woman like Huo Mingzhu to come and go.

"If I'm alone, I can't go, but if I go with you, it will be much more convenient." Huo Mingzhu smiled, not allowing him to doubt, and said: "That's it, you accompany me to wait for that person, No one should pay attention to your face. Don't let Suli know about this, if she asks, you just say you don't know. "

This seemed to be a secret between the two of them. Fang Tieyi was a little nervous about Huo Mingzhu's trust or taking on important responsibilities, and hurriedly said: "Yes! I listen to Miss."

"Go down first and rest. If you are free, you can prune the flowers and plants in the garden. If you don't know anything, go ask those girls." Huo Mingzhu guessed that Sulu would be back soon, so she sent Fang away. Iron clothes go down.

Not long after Fang Tieyi left, he saw Sulu running back, panting, "Miss, Miss Yu is already waiting for Miss in the garden pavilion."

Huo Mingzhu smiled: "Let's go."

As soon as he walked into the garden, he saw Yu Tong looking at the lotus leaf pavilion in the lotus pond, with a smile on his lips, and his eyes were very frozen, obviously distracted.

Huo Mingzhu understood, stepped heavily, came to the stone bench opposite Yu Tong and sat down, raised her hand and shook in front of her eyes: "What is Cousin thinking? You are so preoccupied?"

Yu Tong was startled, regained his senses, and hurriedly tried to explain: "Oh, no, no, where, just count how many lotus leaves there are..."

"Is the number clear? How many lotus leaves? How many big ones and how many small ones? Have you seen a lotus blooming in the corner? It's still on the same side!" Huo Mingzhu asked seriously .

"Lotus? Where is it? Bingdi?" When Yu Tong heard this, he turned his head and looked into the lotus pond. Where did he see a lotus?
Turning around, I saw Huo Mingzhu smiling, not only her, but also Su Hu beside her and her own girl Liu Er were all laughing.Yu Tong's face was feverish, so he wanted to get up and hit Huo Mingzhu: "Okay! Mingzhu, you dare to make fun of me! See if I don't hit you! You girls are too, you have learned from Mingzhu!"

Huo Mingzhu hurriedly begged for mercy: "Good cousin, please forgive me! This time, but cousin, you are crazy, and it's none of my business... After hearing that, Tilian came back to her senses, but she was thinking about that handsome Caring Mr. Xu?"

Yu Tong had already given up and didn't want to chase her anymore. Seeing that she mentioned Xu Junru again, how could he spare her? He stood up and went up to pinch Huo Mingzhu's mouth: "Let you talk nonsense, girl! I must pinch you today mouth! Otherwise, I will not be able to live anymore!"

These days, the two are as good as sisters, even though they are a generation behind, it doesn't seem to affect their friendship.There was a noisy mess, Suli and Liu'er and the maids were persuading, teasing and laughing, when they sat down again, their coiled hair was messed up.

Huo Mingzhu was still laughing: "My cousin is becoming more and more domineering, and she doesn't even want to listen to the truth! Since I miss that Mr. Xu, why don't you go find him? But if I remember correctly, that Mr. Xu yesterday You just invited your cousin to visit the garden, right? You really answered that sentence, seeing each other every day is like three autumns!"

"Mingzhu, you..." Yu Tong laughed angrily at Huo Mingzhu, but her face turned bright red because she was poked in her heart. I'm going back, I won't play chess with you!"

Huo Mingzhu saw that it was almost time, she always knew how to see it easily, so she raised three fingers and swore: "Let me say one more thing, you can't beat my cousin in chess. But everything I said just now is the truth, cousin Don't listen to it."

"I know." Yu Tong smiled, picked up a sunspot, and dropped it in the middle of the chessboard. He sighed and said happily: "He said yesterday that his father would come to propose marriage in two days. It is also possible for the old lady and cousins ​​and sisters-in-law to decide."

When Yu Tong spoke, the sweetness on his face made Huo Mingzhu, who was so cold-hearted, also be stunned. A woman's happiest moment is when she thinks she has found a lover who can stay with her forever.For the first half of her girlhood, she seemed to be looking forward to the arrival of that lover. He came, just as she thought in her heart, she sat here, thinking, from just now to this moment, she must be fantasizing The situation when she was looking at Fengguanxiapei.

Only now did Huo Mingzhu clearly realize that she is a vicious person, reborn once again, stepping on the hearts and bodies of others, she knows a lot of things, but she doesn't disclose, she still wants to use them to achieve her own goals.

But this is her, she owes what she owes, and nothing is more important than revenge.

It took Huo Mingzhu a long time to recover her voice and smile. She looked at Yu Tong's face in surprise and joy, and said, "Really? That Mr. Xu said he was coming to propose marriage? Doesn't that mean I'm about to drink?" Have you arrived at my cousin's wedding?"

Yu Tong didn't deny it, but she didn't have the nerve to admit it, she just said angrily: "When that day comes, if you don't drink, I'll give you a few more glasses, and I'll make you drunk!" The marriage is so confident, it is obvious that Xu Junru has given her enough promises, and the details are beyond Huo Mingzhu's guess.

Huo Mingzhu didn't have anything else to say, so she smiled and blessed: "Even if you are drunk, you still have to drink, who makes cousin a bride! Cousin, I'm so happy for you that you found such a son. "

Yu Tong was obviously satisfied, and gave another son, saying: "Maybe I came here to Beijing to meet him, maybe I came to this world to meet him?"

Look, how stupid a woman is, she is just a screen to cover Xu Junru's shady habit, but she thinks how beautiful she is in Xu Junru's eyes, and she takes that dirty and disgusting man as seriously as Mount Tai, even before All the years are regarded as a long journey for him.

Huo Mingzhu couldn't say anything, compared to Yu Tong's joy of being kept in the dark, she felt a kind of empathetic pain.Soon, Yu Tong's dream will end tomorrow, and she can be regarded as helping Yu Tong, even if the means are cruel and straightforward.

……

While Huo Mingzhu was playing chess with Yu Tong, Lin Ruyi went for a walk in the garden with Huo Huaiyu's mother and daughter. Seeing Yu Tong's full smile, Lin Ruyi snorted disdainfully.

Huo Huaiyu was puzzled and said: "Mother, you are the in-law's family you found for your cousin. Why doesn't she get close to your mother, but only hangs out with your sister? She is really an ungrateful person."

Huo Huaiyu was straightforward, thinking of what to say, Lin Ruyi smiled: "It's okay, mother did this, and never thought of trying to repay her. In two days, that Young Master Xu will come to propose marriage to your cousin. Only when the young master of the Xu family is married, will my mother feel relieved."

To her daughter, Lin Ruyi never told the whole truth, she endured Huo Mingzhu and Yu Tong for too long, especially Yu Tong, she has plenty of ways to deal with her.A little girl dared to compete with her for a husband, and she would send her the pain and embarrassment of the second half of her life that she could not repeat!

Thinking of this, Lin Ruyi took a deep breath, feeling much more relaxed.

At this moment, a servant hurried over and said to Lin Ruyi in a low voice: "Ma'am, Dr. Wang from the City Traditional Chinese Medicine Center asked to see me, and said he was coming to give Madam a pulse."

"Pulse diagnosis?" Lin Ruyi was taken aback, she never went to invite Dr. Wang, and Dr. Wang came uninvited, something must have happened, she hurried back to Cai Yixuan: "Go, go back."
