Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 215 Pei's Marriage Proposal, The Happy Event Is Preliminary (2)
"No, sister!"

However, Pei Yan shook his head slowly, and there was a frightening wave in his eyes, "One day, I will return to Shangjing City, and the Pei family will not fall forever!"

"Ah."

Pei smiled and nodded, "Sister believes in you!"

To propose marriage to Ji's family, in order to show solemnity, Mrs. Pei went there in person.

The old lady Ji took a sip of the sweet white porcelain Aozhi Xuemei teacup, but her eyes were unobtrusively looking at Mrs. Pei who was sitting beside her.

Wearing a crimson brocade long skirt with phoenix tail on Pei's body, not only does it not look ostentatious, but it brings out a trace of introverted luxury, like plum blossoms reflecting snow, cold and aloof, as expected of a girl from Pei's family, old lady Ji secretly felt in her heart nodded.

Although the Pei family was defeated and went to Beijing, that was just the past. Now Pei Yan jumped up and became a fourth-rank official. Although he was only a military general, his aura of not being afraid of tigers as a newborn calf was not to be underestimated.

Perhaps, the Pei family will really stand out in the court again!
"Mrs. Seven must have something to do when she came to our house this time?"

The old lady Ji glanced at the layers of gift boxes stacked on the mahogany desk. What is the purpose of carrying such a generous gift?
"It's a bit embarrassing to say."

Mrs. Pei smiled and nodded, but her expression was extremely solemn, "We have lived in Danyang for so many years, and I have never come to visit the old lady formally. The old lady is generous, so don't blame me in your heart!"

The old lady Ji waved her hand indifferently. The Pei family and the Ji family have no friendship at all. It is reasonable for Mrs. Pei not to come to see her. If she does come, something must be wrong.

"This time I'm here, actually... I'm here to propose to Miss Wu on behalf of my younger brother!"

There was a faint smile in Pei's eyes, but the expression on his face was extremely serious and solemn. Seeing this, Mrs. Ji's heart trembled, and the tea cup in her hand suddenly fell on the small rosewood table.

What kind of luck has happened to the Ji family recently, first Zhou Yu proposed marriage to Ji Youlan, now Pei Yan wants to ask Ji Chonglian to marry?

Could it be that Ji Chongze's happy event brought good luck? If so, wouldn't Mrs. Yang be a good daughter-in-law of the Wang family?
In the blink of an eye, Mrs. Ji's thoughts were turned, but her face remained calm, she just smiled and said: "Mr. Pei, I have seen it once before. He is indeed a good-looking talent, a dragon and a phoenix among people, but my fifth girl... …”

The old lady Ji sighed, "I don't hide this matter from Mrs. Seven. A few days ago, my fifth girl was going to make a promise to the Tanhualang of the Qin family, but there were some accidents in the middle, and this marriage did not come true." ... I watched the fifth girl grow up, and I would hate to see her being wronged the most, if the Pei family..."

The old lady Ji paused at this point, but looked at Mrs. Pei with deep meaning in her eyes.

Paper can't contain fire, if the Pei family finds out about this and then dislikes Ji Chonglian, she still needs to make it clear first.

Mrs. Ji carefully observed the changes in Pei's expression. If she wanted to show a moment of hesitation, there would be no need to discuss this marriage.

The smile on Pei's face did not change, her voice was soft, and it sounded very gentle in my ears, "I have known Miss Wu for a long time, and her character and conduct are all bad. If she doesn't marry Miss Wu, she is from the Qin family." No luck, but I desperately want her to be my younger sibling!"

The old lady Ji nodded, and the smile on the corner of her lips slowly pulled up, maybe this marriage can be done!
I also heard Mrs. Pei continue to say: "Although my younger brother grew up in Shangjing, he is not a dandy, and he left there early because of family changes, so his temper became a little more tenacious. Originally, he joined the army when he was young. I am also worried, but it is his blessing that he can be appreciated by the king of Yan, and if the old lady is still not at ease, next time I will bring A Yan to show you in person?"

"Good! Good!"

The old lady Ji nodded with a smile. Pei's words were on point, so there was no reason for her to be dissatisfied.

Growing up in Shangjing, it means that Pei Yan came from a famous family with a good background, but even then he did not develop a dandy temperament, which shows that he is clean and well-behaved. Although there is a change in the Pei family, it is just bad luck. Didn't Pei Yan work hard with his own ability again?
After such a sharpening of the young mind, he is more calm and introverted than ordinary people, and his age is only seven years older than Ji Chonglian, which is not too old.

The old lady Ji sighed, if Father Pei was still the powerful official in charge of the situation in the court, I am afraid that Pei Yan would have married a wife and had children by now, so where would it be their Ji family's turn?

The experiences of Pei's family and Ji's family are somewhat similar, so Mrs. Ji feels that they are related to the same disease, and seeing Pei's extraordinary demeanor, she has already developed a good impression in her heart.

"Does your mother know about this?"

The old lady Ji seemed to remember something, and turned to look at Mrs. Pei again.

The theory of family affairs in the family said that the elders should come forward, but Pei Yan begged her elder sister to come, so what role does Mother Pei play in it?

"My mother is still staying in Peng Ze's old house. She has been living in seclusion since the father's incident. A Yan can be regarded as growing up with me, so I will come forward to negotiate this matter, but the old lady can rest assured that the marriage will be settled. After it's settled, my mother will definitely come too."

Pei's eyes were tactile, and his every move and gesture was full of grand demeanor.

She said this is impeccable. It was not easy for Pei's mother to leave Beijing with a pair of children. The eldest sister is like a mother. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Pei family watched Pei Yan grow up. Now that Pei's mother is not with their siblings, Pei Shi is also qualified to stand up for Pei Yan.

Not long after Mrs. Pei put down the gift for proposing marriage and left, Ji Furong was swept into the Emerald Pool like a gust of wind, and the ledger in Ji Chonglian's hand fell to the ground with a "slap".

Cai Qiu on the side hurriedly bent over to pick it up, blew the dust on it again, and then put it back in front of Ji Chonglian.

"Fifth sister, something happened!"

Ji Furong had just stood still, before she had time to catch her breath, her voice sounded a bit shrill.

"Look at you, big sister, you're panicking, what happened?"

With a wave of Ji Chonglian's hand, Caiqiu retreated.

"Fifth sister, someone has come to propose marriage for you!"

As soon as Ji Furong grasped Ji Chonglian's hand, her face was full of nervousness, and she didn't have the excitement and joy she felt when she heard Mrs. Xie propose marriage to Ji Youlan for the first time.

"what?"

Ji Chonglian thumped in her heart, and her face flushed instantly.

Proposing marriage for her... Could it be Pei Yan?

This was something that had been expected, but at this moment she couldn't be happy because Ji Youlan hadn't been found yet.
