Hou Mansion has a daughter to marry

Chapter 84
Prince Zhong's Mansion.

As soon as Princess Zhongqin got the news that Xiao Yuan and Xiao Yu had returned to the residence, she immediately ordered people to prepare lunch.

"What's wrong with Yu'er? Why does she look depressed? Didn't you see Second Miss Xie today?" The loyal princess lovingly pulled Xiao Yu to sit beside her. Seeing that Xiao Yu was silent, she deliberately joked Said: "Could it be that our Yu'er is so hungry that he has no strength to talk to mother?" The loyal princess looked at Xiao Yuan in puzzlement.

Xiao Yuan also didn't understand why, so he shook his head and said: "I think Yu'er is not hungry, but has grown up and started to have her own little secret. Alas, I think Yu'er only knew everything about her elder brother at the beginning, but now there is Don't tell Brother Hualian...it's better not to grow up."

Xiao Yu raised her head and said, "Mother, brother, I'm fine, let's eat."

Concubine Zhongqin and Xiao Yuan obviously didn't believe it. After all, Xiao Yu was telling me that I had something to do, and I was not happy about the fact.But Xiao Yu didn't speak, and they had no choice.Xiao Yu at this moment is comparable to a boiled duck, with a tough mouth.

After the lunch was served, the three of them took their seats. After Xiao Yu, who was usually the most troublesome person, calmed down, Princess Zhongqin and Xiao Yuan felt that something was wrong. , Why is the food not delicious today? I have no appetite at all. "

Concubine Zhongqin also looked sleepy, glanced at Xiao Yu who was counting grains of rice with blurred eyes, and said pointedly: "It's not that the food is not delicious, it's that the atmosphere of eating here is not right."

Xiao Yu didn't know, as if he hadn't heard of it, his eyes were still blurred.

After finishing the tasteless lunch, the loyal princess, mother and son went back to their houses to rest.After returning to the house, Xiao Yuan thought about it and was still worried about Xiao Yu, so he walked towards Xiao Yu's room non-stop.

At this time, Xiao Yu was lying on the bed sprawled all over, still staring with blurred eyes.

"Yu'er, what's the matter with you?" Sitting beside Xiao Yu, Xiao Yuan hacked around following Xiao Yu's gaze, but didn't find anything.

Xiao Yu's gaze gradually focused, and when he turned his head and saw Xiao Yuan who was staring at him in a daze, Xiao Yu asked belatedly, "Brother, why are you here, and when did you come?"

Xiao Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Did you not hear what elder brother said just now?" Xiao Yu nodded blankly, not feeling anything wrong.

Xiao Yuan had no choice but to ask again patiently, "Yu'er, what happened to you today, why are you so downcast?"

Xiao Yu sat up and fiddled with the chaotic shadow puppets, suddenly stopped his hands, looked up at the closed door, and said in a muffled voice: "Brother, my marriage with Chang'an was promised by the emperor's grandmother, and I never asked Chang'an's wishes... …When I saw Chang’an talking about my marriage with her today, I was in a calm state of mind, and there was no disturbance. Chang’an probably agreed to marry me because he had no choice. The royal family is powerful, so it’s up to Chang’an whether he is willing or not. If Chang’an is really forced, Did I miss her..."

Xiao Yuan was at a loss for words for a while, Xie Changan did not reject Xiao Yu, but it did not mean that Xie Changan was happy with Xiao Yu, and they always only wanted to fulfill Xiao Yu's wish, and did not consider Xie Changan's feelings... But since ancient times, marriage is a major event , the order of your parents, the words of a matchmaker, how can you estimate whether you are willing or not.

Xiao Yu carefully arranged the shadow puppets and put them in the wooden box, with a gloomy expression and a lonely voice, "Brother, if Chang An is not willing, let's leave this matter alone." With a slight smile, Xie Changan's favorite person is undoubtedly Yan Qinglan.

Xiao Yuan was in a hurry, and persuaded him incoherently: "Yu'er, don't be impulsive. You haven't asked Miss Xie yet, why does she like you? Now that Miss Xie has forgotten you, it is inevitable that she will be colder." , you don't want to get into a dead end for a while."

Xiao Yu remained silent, Xiao Yuan lifted Xiao Yu's shoulder and looked directly into Xiao Yu's eyes, and said seriously: "Yu'er, elder brother once told you, fight for what you want, and never give up until the last moment, now victory In sight, how can you just give up and give up?"

Xiao Yu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes flickered, obviously shaken.

Xiao Yuan continued his efforts, "Yu'er, if you want to give up, ask Second Miss Xie before giving up to see if she married you voluntarily or was forced. If she married you voluntarily, you didn't waste it in vain I will live up to Second Miss Xie for my own wish. If Second Miss Xie is just forced by the situation, then it will not be too late for you to give up."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu thought for a while, then nodded for a long time and said: "Yu'er listens to elder brother."

Only then did Xiao Yuan feel relieved, patted Xiao Yu's shoulder and said, "Yu'er, elder brother is going back first, you should think about it." Xiao Yuan got up and went outside, before going out, he turned his head and said, "Yu'er, if Second Miss Xie is forced by the situation, and she will not talk to you again and again before parting today, and she will not see you depressed."

Xiao Yu's eyes became brighter and clearer, the corners of his mouth curled up like nothing, and he whispered, "Chang'an..."

Yanjun Palace.

The spring breeze on Yan Qinglan's face disappeared the moment she saw Su Ningwei, and she was no longer as warm as jade, her eyes were cold and wrapped in a chill, just like the increasingly severe winter.

Su Ningwei, on the other hand, walked up to Yan Qinglan gracefully like a spring breeze, smiled sweetly, and said softly: "Cousin has met cousin." After saying that, she lowered her eyebrows and smiled, indescribably shy.

Yan Qinglan greeted coldly, "Cousin." Then she walked past without delay, without giving Su Ningwei a look, and made no secret of her disgust.

"Ah Fu, ask a few servants why she is in the mansion." Yan Qinglan prided herself on being gentle and polite, even Xiao Yu, he could treat each other with courtesy, but Su Ningwei touched his Bottom line, he couldn't tolerate it.

Gentleman, do something, not do something.

As soon as Yan Qinglan crawled back into the house, a servant came to pass the message, "My lord, the princess invites you to have dinner in the main courtyard." Yan Qinglan's expression changed a lot, she waved her hand to the servant, and went into the house to tidy her appearance.

When Yan Qinglan arrived, Princess Yanjun and Su Ningwei had already taken their seats.Without squinting, Yan Qinglan went straight to sit beside Princess Yan, "Mother, you asked me to come to the main courtyard for dinner today, but what's the matter?"

Princess Yanjun glanced at Su Ningwei who was staring at Yan Qinglan without any trace, and said angrily: "Why, Lan'er, you don't come to eat with your mother if there is nothing important?"

Without waiting for Yan Qinglan to reply, Princess Yanjun said with a smile: "Your cousin Ningwei came to the house today, and now I have called you to the main courtyard. Lan'er, if you are free, you might as well take Ningwei to the street in a few days Let's go, you didn't accompany Ningwei much when you came back last time, so you can't be lazy this time." Princess Yanjun smiled at Yanyan, but she didn't know how sincere she was in her words.

Su Ningwei lowered her head shyly, "Then I will trouble my cousin."

Yan Qinglan didn't want to pay attention to Su Ningwei at first, but because Princess Yanjun was by her side, she could only reluctantly nod her head, and then said to Princess Yanjun sideways: "Mother, let's eat, it should be cold in a while."

Princess Yanjun knew that she couldn't push Yan Qinglan too far, her beautiful eyes smiled, "Let's eat now, Ningwei doesn't have to be cautious, just tell Wan Xiang what you want to eat, and Wan Xiang will tell the cook."

Yan Qinglan ate in silence, picking up vegetables from time to time with Princess Yanjun, and I didn't hear a word about Princess Yanjun and Su Ningwei.

"Why didn't Lan'er talk, did she become shy after meeting her cousin?" Princess Yanjun asked knowingly, as if she thought the atmosphere was not embarrassing enough.

Yan Qinglan moved forward and retreated carefully, and said with a cold expression: "There is a saying in ancient times, you don't talk when you eat, and you don't talk when you sleep."

"Isn't Lan'er blaming my mother for talking nonstop?" Princess Yanjun's expression froze, she didn't know whether she was angry or not.

Yan Qinglan's expression was as usual, she turned to look at Princess Yanjun, and said sincerely: "Mother, my child has no such intentions."

Su Ningwei, who had been invisible all the time, suddenly smiled awkwardly, and stood up to prepare dishes for Princess Yanjun and Yan Qinglan, "Auntie, Ningwei doesn't know what you like to eat, so I picked a few dishes for you at will, and please don't dislike it .”

Princess Yan patted Su Ningwei's hand lightly, and said lovingly: "Auntie loves to eat as long as it is the vegetables Ningwei puts."

Su Ningwei lowered her eyebrows and smiled, hesitated for a while before walking to Yan Qinglan, keeping a distance seemingly reserved, and said softly: "cousin, can you tell me what kind of food cousin Ningwei likes to eat, Ningwei can show you Goblin."

Yan Qinglan just pretended not to hear about it, and didn't pay any attention to Su Ningwei's intentions. Su Ningwei froze in place, forced a smile, neither put down the chopsticks in her hand, nor held them, feeling awkward for a while.

Princess Yanjun didn't know if she wanted to help Su Ningwei, or just to break the embarrassment, she deliberately coughed twice and said, "Ningwei, your cousin's taste is lighter."

Su Ningwei understood, and immediately prepared dishes for Yan Qinglan graciously.

Yan Qinglan just sat upright calmly, and when Su Ningwei returned to her seat after serving the dishes, Yan Qinglan said: "Mother, the child is full, so I'll go back to the house first." go.

Su Ningwei couldn't hold back her face for a while, she wanted to cry, and she was about to cry.

"Ningwei, don't take it to heart. Lan'er has such a temperament. It will be fine after a long time. Don't worry about it. My aunt believes in you, and I will definitely make Lan'er change her mind. Don't let her down. Pay attention." Princess Yan Jun looked calmly, looking at Su Ningwei with deep meaning.

Su Ningwei's heart was agitated, tears flashed in her beautiful eyes, but she slowly brought out a smile, she nodded firmly to Princess Yanjun, and promised firmly: "Don't worry, aunt, Ningwei will definitely live up to her expectations." Yan Qinglan, she is bound to win.

Yan Qinglan, who had already returned to her room, shivered for no reason, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
