Red apricots make spring

Chapter 238 Reckless Marriage Proposal
Shen Mengan was taken aback when he heard the words, looked at Lu Ce and then read the book. After thinking and hesitating for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay! Anyway, she is already yours, and I can't disobey the imperial decree. What can I do if I don't accept my fate? But... ...I have one more request."

Lu Ce smiled lightly and said, "Say it."

"I promised not to pester her, but I would occasionally say a few words to her, you must not allow it?" Shen Mengan was extremely depressed.

"Okay!" Lu Ce laughed in his heart, how could he be afraid of him being entangled with tenderness?When it really gets to the point where it becomes a headache, just take him out and throw him back to Shen's residence.It's just a rare excitement, I made a joke with Shen Mengan, but I didn't expect him to take it seriously!That's good, it saves Wen Rou some trouble.

Seeing that Lu Ce agreed, Shen Mengan felt a little unwilling again, raised a finger and said, "I'll make another request!"

Lu Ce slightly raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell me about it."

Shen Mengan took out the other two unread books from her bosom and said: "Lend me these two books as well, I'll find a few people to transcribe them, and enjoy them slowly in the future."

Lu Ce looked at the two books and shook his head, "I said this is a relic of my grandmother's handwriting. It is an exception for you to read it. It must not be transcribed, let alone spread outside!"

"Why are you so stingy?" Shen Mengan said unconvinced: "Books are for people to read, so what are you doing with such a treasured one? It's not that gold, silver and jewels are afraid of being robbed."

"This is my grandmother's last words! These books are only for the descendants of the Lu family to read, you don't need to say any more." Lu Ce stretched out his hand and said, "Bring it here."

"What?" Shen Mengan asked knowingly, hiding the book behind her back.

"The book in your hand!" Lu Ce stared at Shen Mengan closely.

Shen Mengan felt uncomfortable being stared at by him, and besides, the book he was reading halfway was still in Lu Ce's hand, he was anxious to read the following, and finally had no choice but to pass the book over.

Lu Ce took the book, returned the one he had snatched earlier, and said calmly, "After finishing one book, come to me for another one."

"Oh." Shen Mengan was helpless.

"Remember! Don't copy, don't pass it on, don't talk about it with people who haven't read these books, and don't stain or damage the pages!" It's rare for Lu Ce to have the patience to say this kind of mother-in-law's advice, because these few books, really It was his grandfather's treasure, and it was to be kept as a family heirloom. Shen Meng'an's temperament was also jumpy and impetuous. If it was broken, his grandfather didn't know how to be angry. It's better to give clear instructions in advance.

"I know, I know!" Isn't it just a few broken books?The Lu family is really upset!While Shen Meng'an was slandering, she had to admit that these broken books were really attractive, and people couldn't put them down after reading them. It's not an exaggeration to call them strange books.Hmph, if he had the martial arts of the hero Xiao Feng in the book, let alone Lu Ce, ten of them would still beat him to pieces...

Shen Mengan thought, and couldn't help but waved his fist twice and kicked at Lu Ce who was leaving with his back turned to him.

Lu Ce seemed to have a premonition and stopped, but he didn't look back.

Shen Mengan was so frightened that she immediately hugged the book in her arms tightly, and ran to the gazebo in the distance.

Lu Ce shook his head helplessly and continued on his own way.

After finding the house in the north of the city, as soon as he entered the yard, Lu Ce heard Mama Wen's surprised voice from inside the house——

"What? You want to marry Xiaohuan?"

Wen Gang's voice came out immediately and said: "Yes! I have always wanted to talk about this matter, but there have been accidents at home one after another, so I suppressed it. Right now, my mother and sister are here, and Xiaohuan and Aunt Liu are also there. I think ...Whether it is successful or not, we can discuss it clearly..."

I haven't noticed it usually, but this kid has an idea in his heart, and he has the courage to say it.Lu Ce smiled lightly, lifted the curtain with his hand, saw that the room was full of people, Wen Gang stood in the middle with his head down, and Xiaohuan sitting next to Aunt Liu didn't know whether it was willing or not, just bowed his head. Head, wringing the handkerchief vigorously.

Rourou was about to speak, when she looked up and saw Lu Ce leaning against the door, she was about to stand up, but saw him making a whisper gesture to herself, smiled unconsciously, took a sip of tea, lowered her eyes and said: "I I think this marriage is good."

"Not bad?" Mother Wen said urgently, "How can it be good...ah, sister-in-law Liu, don't worry, I'm not saying that Xiaohuan is bad, it's just that this happened too suddenly...Gang'er didn't tell me beforehand Want to marry Xiaohuan...has he told you?"

How could Mrs. Liu not understand Mother Wen's idea of ​​wanting Wen Gang to marry a girl from an official family, so that she can make it to the top?Somewhat annoyed, he held Xiaohuan's hand tightly and said: "Gang'er is your son, how could you tell us about such a thing first? We still dislike him for having no orders from his parents and no words from a matchmaker." It's abrupt! Xiaohuan, don't you think so?"

Xiaohuan lowered her head in embarrassment and didn't speak. Aunt Liu forced her to nod her head reluctantly.

Everyone in the room focused their attention on Wen Gang at the moment. Except for Wen Gang, only Ye Yu noticed that Lu Ce was coming. He frowned slightly, looked at Wen Gang again, and finally sighed helplessly, pretending not to see Lu Ce.

Wen Gang rubbed his head and said apologetically, "I... I just want to ask you what you mean first. If you can make a decision, then formally propose marriage. I didn't think so much..."

What a fool!Rourou thought that he and Xiaohuan had made an agreement in private, and then brought it up in public, who would have thought that Xiaohuan didn't even know about it!Dare to love this is to shave one's head and pick one's head hot?She shook her head with a wry smile, complaining to Wen Gang, "You didn't ask Xiaohuan about this first? If she doesn't want to, wouldn't you make her panic?"

"I..." Wen Gang looked at Xiaohuan, lowered his head, and said softly, "Xiaohuan, are you... willing?"

Xiaohuan was even more ashamed when he asked him in public, she held her face with a handkerchief, and kept shaking her head.

Wen Gang, who was born on the other side, was a little out of his wits, thinking that she didn't want to, and with a mournful face, he was suddenly speechless.

"See, our Xiaohuan doesn't want to!" Aunt Liu also couldn't figure out her daughter's psychology, but she was annoyed by Ms. Wen before, so she refused.

Mother Wen breathed a sigh of relief, but instead she said with a smile on her face: "Xiaohuan is a wealthy man, and those who are going to marry high-ranking officials in the future will naturally look down on our Ganger."

Seeing that the trouble was over, Rourou glanced at Lu Ce and saw that he was leaning against the door as if he was watching a show, rubbed his temples with a headache, stood up and patted Wen Gang on the head and said, "Silly boy! Xiaohuan is a girl, if you ask her like that, you are willing, she has the nerve to say so?"

"Ah?" Wen Gang raised his eyes in surprise, "So she is willing?"

"If you say you're stupid, you're really stupid!" Rourou patted him on the head again, bowed slightly to Mrs. Liu and Xiaohuan, and said, "Sister-in-law Liu, Xiaohuan, would you like to come out with me? There are two things I want to say."

Aunt Liu naturally wouldn't refuse her gentle words, she immediately nodded and stood up, and when she was about to go out, everyone saw Lu Ce.

Mother Wen rushed forward first and said, "my uncle is here! Why don't you say anything? Teach us to neglect you!"

"I see that you have some business to discuss, so you didn't bother me." Lu Ce smiled faintly, walked into the room and sat down.

Mother Wen made tea messily again and asked attentive questions. Aunt Liu and Xiaohuan also stood still.Ruan put his hands on both of them, led them both out of the house, and walked to the courtyard, then turned around and apologized to Mrs. Liu: "Sister-in-law Liu, don't mind, this is my mother's problem. It’s not good, it’s also because I was afraid of poverty in the past.”

Aunt Liu sighed, nodded and remained silent.

Genuinely looked at Xiaohuan, and said in a low voice: "It's just the three of us here, there's nothing to be ashamed to say, Xiaohuan, what's the plan in your heart, tell your sister the truth."

Xiaohuan's pretty face was flushed with embarrassment, she raised her eyes to sneak a glance at Aunt Liu, then looked at Wenrou, she still bit her lips and said nothing.

"Don't be shy, this is asking for your opinion!" Aunt Liu clapped Xiaohuan's hand and said, "You are not the kind of girl who has never seen the world, even if you are embarrassed to say it, you will always nod and shake your head? Don't miss it For the rest of your life, don't blame your mother!"

Xiaohuan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.

"Really unwilling?" Rourou was a little surprised, although she was worried that Xiaohuan would fall in love with Pei Jingxuan earlier, and Wen Gang was jealous because of this, but after leaving Lu Mansion for Yunzhou, she didn't find anything wrong with Xiaohuan, Seeing Pei Jingxuan later, her reaction was also normal, but looking back at her and Wen Gang, the two of them brought out a little childhood sweetheart from their usual petty quarrels, logically speaking, she should also have Wen Gang in her heart.

Mrs. Liu clapped her hands and said, "Yes! Since you don't want to, this matter will be easy. Wait for me to go in and refuse this marriage." She said and walked away.

Xiaohuan became anxious when she saw it, and hurriedly grabbed Aunt Liu's clothes to prevent her from leaving.

"How did you say that? You don't want to, why don't you allow me to refuse?" Mrs. Liu looked at Xiaohuan in wonder.

Xiaohuan felt ashamed and anxious, and when she was asked by Mrs. Liu, she was even more furious. Finally, she gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, and said, "Do I need to explain this clearly? You and my sister are not the same about me in Zhao's mansion." I don't know... It's not a matter of whether I marry or not, but a matter of whether people want to marry!" After speaking, she felt deeply hopeless in her heart, covered her face and began to cry softly.

Mrs. Liu felt sorry for her daughter, and when she saw her crying, she was a little at a loss and said, "Then... can't we hide this?"

"No way! The Wen family treats us well, how can we deceive Wen Gang?" Xiaohuan cried, "That's all! Anyway, I won't marry for the rest of my life, so I just take care of the shop for my sister..."

"Don't be silly! I'll go and tell Wen Gang!" This matter has been in Wen Rou's heart for a long time, and there has been no chance to solve it. Today's situation is so forced that no matter what the result is, this layer of window paper should be pierced !As soon as she lifted her skirt, she was about to walk into the house.
