Chapter 200
"It's worth it..."

The horseshoe made a crisp sound on the stone road, avoiding passers-by in a hurry, and arrived at the Duke's Mansion in a blink of an eye.

"Xiaoli, help me tie the horse!" Xu Yanxili got off the horse, casually stuffed the reins into the porter's hand, and rushed in hastily.

"Miss Six, hey..." Xiaoli couldn't call her, scratched his head helplessly, looked at Gaifeng in embarrassment, and muttered: "Miss Six, what are you doing in such a hurry?"

Gaifeng snorted to express his understanding, and walked slowly towards the stable with his calves.

"Father! Mother!" Xu Yanxi rushed in with a loud voice, startling the Duke and Duchess who were drinking tea under the shade of a tree.

"You child, what are you yelling about?" Mrs. Guo was wearing a royal blue embroidered bird narrow-sleeved gown, with a silver-rimmed ruby ​​bag around her waist, and she raised a hand against Xu Yanxi in a heroic manner. Hugging and rushing forward, he scolded softly: "Hold down, your grandma just fell asleep, don't wake her up."

"Come on, grandma's yard is thousands of miles away from us, so how can she be woken up so easily?" Xu Yanxi took advantage of the opportunity to hold her hand and acted like a baby: "Mother, tell me, do you want me to marry you?" For Su Wu?"

"Hey, did you hear the news so soon?" Mrs. Guo raised her eyebrows unsurprisingly: "Is it Feishuang who ran to inform you?"

Xu Yanxi couldn't help but shake her arm anxiously: "Don't worry about it, just tell me yes or no."

"Xi'er." The Duke was displeased: "At any rate, you are also a lady from a famous family. Do you talk to your mother like this?"

He just let his wife's temperament go too far, but now, even his daughter has raised a quack aura. She has been mischievous since she was a child, and she is not at all like a lady should be.

However, Mrs. Guogong couldn't bear the stern look of everyone's lady, so she gave her husband a look, "I just like my daughter talking to me like this, what's wrong? Is it possible that you want to be as sick as Ba Yatou, and you have to do everything? Are you happy when you think about it and shrink back?"

"That's right." Xu Yanxi made a face at her father, "Didn't father get tired of seeing those fake dolls at every banquet, and insisted that his daughter also look like that?"

The Duke was so angry with the mother and daughter that he couldn't laugh or cry, and said in a low voice, "What's wrong with being educated, sensible, gentle and considerate? Look at you, you are crazy all day long, who would dare to marry you?"

As soon as the words fell, I felt a beam of coldness piercing from the side, and Mrs. Guo looked at him with a fake smile: "So you like educated, sensible, gentle and considerate women? Huh?"

The Duke’s face froze, knowing that he had said the wrong thing, he quickly flattered him and said: "Where is this? I like a straightforward woman like Madam, otherwise why would I have looked at the thatched cottage and begged for it with shame? What about marrying a wife?"

Thinking back at the beginning, Madam was not at all happy because of his status as the son of the eldest son, on the contrary, she hated him and would rather travel the rivers and lakes, eat and sleep in the open than be detained in this big and square mansion.

In order to marry her into the family, he spent a lot of thought and spent a whole year to get his wish.

Even if he had a bunch of concubines, even if he gave birth to a bunch of children from the concubines, except for his wife, no one had ever caught his eyes, let alone his heart.

Seeing the signs of madam's anger at this moment, there is no need to criticize her daughter, and quickly comfort the madam.

Only then did the Duke's wife take a look at him, "You are acquainted. Why, if you like me like this, Xi'er won't be liked by others? If so, why did Empress Li concubine propose to ask Zijian to be with you?" We Xi'er are engaged, could it be because Concubine Li has bad eyesight?"

"Ma'am!" His Excellency jumped anxiously: "You must not talk nonsense."

Concubine Li is a noble person in the palace, the emperor's concubine, how could she allow the courtiers to arrange things like this.

His wife is good at everything, except that she keeps her mouth open all day long, and what she says can make people tremble with fear.

Fortunately, in the past few years, she has been in and out of many big occasions, so she knows how to restrain herself, and basically can't make mistakes.Even in private, he is still talking nonstop and endlessly, which often makes him break into a cold sweat.

Mrs. Duke smiled, and Xu Yanxi jumped up: "What, you really want me to be engaged to that Su Wu? No, I won't marry!"

"Why don't you marry?" Before the Duke's wife could say anything, the Duke frowned and scolded: "With your temperament, it's good if someone can see you. Not to mention that the fifth prince is a dragon and a phoenix among people, With a noble status and an extraordinary status as a biological mother, marrying him will definitely not wrong you."

Xu Yanxi spat: "What is the status of being noble and extraordinary? Concubine Li is a good concubine, but in the end she is just the emperor's concubine... woo woo woo..."

She broke her mother's hand with all her strength, and shouted in dissatisfaction, "Mother, what are you doing covering my mouth?"

"Is it okay to say this nonsense?" Mrs. Guogong stared at her angrily: "What about the emperor's wife and concubine, but can it come from your mouth? If someone accidentally listens to it, our entire Duke's mansion will be shocked." implicated."

It's true that she speaks carelessly, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't distinguish between serious and serious. It's clear what can be said and what can't be said.

In the past, I only thought that my daughter's speech was as straightforward as hers, and although it was sometimes inappropriate, it was harmless in the end.But he didn't want her to jump over the wall in a hurry and dare to say such disrespectful words.

Xu Yanxi later realized that she had made a slip of the tongue, and quietly stuck out her tongue: "Daughter is in a hurry, she just said something indiscriminately, and I will pay more attention to it in the future. But, mother, I really don't want to marry that Su Wu! "

"Why don't you want to get married? Are you still dreaming about the troubled world? Tell you, it's impossible!" The Duke threw his sleeves angrily: "Your mother and I have allowed you to mess around with other things, but this matter is absolutely impossible!" Don't mess around. We have already promised Concubine Li, this fifth prince, you have to marry if you want to marry, and you have to marry if you don't want to!"

"Father!" Xu Yanxi's eyes widened in surprise, "How could you harm me like this?"

"How can I harm you? What's wrong with the fifth prince? How many people want to marry into the royal family with their brains broken? You are good, and you can't avoid it? If your words are heard by the fifth prince and the concubine Li Why do you want them to have any face?" His Excellency slapped the table hard, left a sentence, turned around and left: "Marriage is a matter of your own parents. It's not up to you to choose. Just obediently wait to get married. If you If you dare to make a fuss, don't blame your father for not being sympathetic!"
