Chapter 388 I have someone in my heart (2)
Ruoxi was happy when she heard that the old matriarch and Mrs. Hou had returned the gift, especially the old matriarch pulled Han Huang and talked a lot.

Yixuan knew that their brother and sister hadn't seen each other for more than a year, so they would definitely have a lot to say, Ruoxi's mood had already calmed down, so he found an excuse to go out.

Although Han Huang wrote the anecdotes along the way in the letter, he couldn't write in detail after all.Besides, Ruoxi knew that he must report the good news but not the bad news, so she couldn't help asking him about the hardships of this journey.

"If it's hard work, it's impossible to have nothing at all. But you can be a master if you suffer hard! Sister Ninth, look, I'm back intact." Han Huang replied lightly, with a calm face on his face smile.

Ruoxi stared at his face, sighed lightly and said: "I am rambunctious like an old woman, no wonder you have grown up, so I am old!"

"How old is Ninth Sister? Not to mention being in the capital, even if you look at the heavens, no one can surpass my sister's beauty." He quickly replied with a smile: "I'm not talking nonsense, I have traveled half of the heaven, I've seen a lot of women too."

Ruoxi said with a smile when she heard the words: "You also said that you are not talking nonsense, how can a woman from a boudoir show her face? What you see are just commoner girls, how can they be superior in knowledge and temperament?"

"My sister doesn't know the customs and habits of different places. There are many places where the rules are different from those in Beijing. I also met a girl who set up a arena to recruit relatives. That girl is both talented and beautiful. It's a pity..." He stopped in the middle of speaking, and continued Said: "It was only after I traveled all this time that I realized that the world is so vast, and the customs and habits of different places are very different. In our capital, there are mostly Han people, and it is rare to see them once in a while. This time I went to an ethnic minority area. Excellent people, the Zhuang people are the best at singing and dancing. I was just catching up with their annual folk songs. Young men and women are far away from each other to sing impromptuly. Propose marriage."

"Marriage matters have always been the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers. Wouldn't such behavior make people poke their spines?" Ruoxi said with a deep meaning after hearing this.

"Ninth Sister's words are wrong." Han Huang refuted Ruoxi for the first time, "Firstly, it's due to the customs of the Zhuang area, which has been the case since ancient times and people have been used to it; secondly, the two men and women have never even seen each other. However, it is not very advisable to get married and stay together for a lifetime just because of family background. Although a man can have three wives and four concubines, he only has one wife. I can't even express it. Serving a husband who looks disgusting for a lifetime, every day is suffering!"

"After hearing what you mean, you have to make up your own mind when you marry a wife?" Ruoxi pressed.

Han Huang's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he replied: "Of course I want to marry a lady who I am in love with, but right now, if I am not successful, I will not be successful, even if there are good girls, they will look down on me!"

"Oh? Could it be that the eleventh brother is in his heart..." Before Ruoxi could finish speaking, Guiyuan came in from the outside.

"Grandma, the person you sent to Ma's mansion is back." Gui Yuan stood still and said, "Miss Ma will go to the lotus appreciation party with Mrs. Ma tomorrow, so I'm afraid she can't come to the appointment. There is no need to discuss things face to face.”

Ruoxi still knows a thing or two about the way of communication in the upper class. Although marriage matters are ordered by the parents and the matchmaker's words, they all pay attention to the help of the elders.But this can't be said clearly, so there are some tricks of admiring flowers and listening to operas, it's nothing more than looking at girls in disguise.If you feel satisfied, then send a matchmaker to come to propose marriage.

This Ma Ruru is sixteen this year, and will have three years of filial piety when she is seventeen next year.Start looking for a husband's family now, and after a few months, it will be settled, and it will be just right for me to marry in the spring of next year.

Considering her age, she was already considered old, these days Madam Ma often took her in and out of various mansions.Many matchmakers came to propose marriage, but Mrs. Ma was not particularly satisfied. Coupled with the interference of the old man in the mansion, no one was settled for a while.

Although the threshold for this horse mansion is high, and Ruru is both talented and beautiful, but she is not young after all, so she cannot tolerate such a delay.Mrs. Ma also complained about the old man behind her back, but there was nothing else she could do!The old man was determined to find a satisfactory grandson-in-law, and no one dared to show any criticism.

Han Huang, who was sitting by the side, froze when he heard Gui Yuan's words, and picked up his teacup to drink tea, but he became obviously absent-minded.

Ruoxi wondered in the center of her eyes, she was beaming with joy when she said it just now, why did he seem to have something on his mind after hearing Guiyuan's report?Is it possible...

"The second girl from the Ma Mansion is a good sister to me, and she often walks around. Now that I'm inconvenient, I want to invite her to sit at home." Ruoxi said tentatively, and paid attention to Han Huang's reaction.

Based on her understanding of Han Huang, there must be some intersection between him and Ruru, and it is definitely not the reaction she should have when hearing a stranger.But Ruru said plainly that although they met, they never met, and the eleventh brother didn't know her identity.Could it be that there are some things in it that even Ruru herself doesn't know?

If this is the case, then their affairs will be much easier to handle!Ruoxi's eyes lit up, and she suddenly had an idea.

"Right now my body is getting heavy, and your brother-in-law is nagging me all day long not to let me move. You know my temperament, and I don't feel comfortable being bored in the house all day. I like to hear new and strange things from you, but you have been traveling so long When the time comes back, I must have a good rest for a while, and I'm too embarrassed to ask you to come and accompany me." Ruoxi said with a lonely expression.

Seeing this, Han Huang hurriedly said: "Why can't I spare time to accompany my sister? I'm going to visit Mr. Zhang tomorrow, and come over to talk to my sister the day after tomorrow."

"I'm glad you have this kind of thought. Now there are more than half a year before the big exam next year, you should study hard." Ruoxi replied with a smile, and then ordered the girl to bring the snacks.

These pastries are all Western-style pastries, even though Han Huang traveled all over the country, this is the first time he has eaten them.Seeing him eating deliciously, Ruoxi smiled, and ordered the girl to wrap up the leftover snacks in the kitchen and bring them back to him.

Ruoxi left him to have dinner at the mansion, he said that today was his first day back, and it was not convenient for him to eat outside.After hearing this, Ruoxi didn't stay any longer, and told him to take care of himself before letting him go back.

In the evening, Yixuan asked strangely: "You should be happy to see the eleventh brother, why are you getting more and more preoccupied? Could it be that the eleventh brother has caused some trouble outside?"

"It's not that the eleventh brother caused trouble, it's because I haven't told you about something. Now that he's back, this matter has been put on the agenda." At this time, Ruoxi can no longer hide it from Yixuan, and there are some things that need to be done. Rely on him.

Ruoxi briefly explained the matter, Yixuan frowned when he heard the words, thought for a while and said: "The eleventh younger brother is not a treasure in the pond, he will definitely achieve something in the future. But right now he is an unknown junior, so he will go there rashly Ma's marriage proposal will be sent out once two or three sentences are approved. Miss Ma's age can't wait, this matter is difficult!"
