Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 548, unworthy of rejection

The 1000 troops were stationed in the Xinji Barracks. Niu Wenwen received the letter from Luan Ying, and his eyes were blurred, as if it was yesterday that his family's eldest son welcomed his relatives.

Luan Ying took Qi Cunben and other young men to leave. Niu Wenwen's youngest son came in and called him. Niu Wenwen woke up from his trance. Waiting in the barracks, the eldest son has been sent to the Duke.

"It's really fast." Niu Wenwen said.

Qi Dong and Qi Xi were overjoyed to see Luan Ying in military uniform, hugged him, kept touching his armor and smiled, Luan Ying said he would pay homage to the great-grandfather of the Yuan family, Qi Dong personally sent him over, Lai Bao came back from school, and was pleasantly surprised to see him Until Luan Ying appeared in front of her eyes.

"Brother Ying?"

Laibao blurted out: "This is great, look at your body, look at your body, I heard that you do martial arts, I have been happy for you for days."

Luan Ying got up: "Brother Laibao, let me walk under the red bean tree with you, and see how much the leaves are growing."

Noble came out with him, and people kept saying hello to Luan Ying along the way, saying that Luan Ying's outfit was impressive, but fortunately there was no one under the red bean tree, so Noble and Luan Ying stopped here.

Luan Ying said, "Is it the most appropriate place to ask you something?" As he spoke, he paid attention to Bao's expression.

Noble still smiled when he saw him just now: "Why?"

Luan Ying said: "Second Sister Gao asked you to reply, why didn't you reply?"

Laibao's complexion changed violently a few times, and expressions of shock, pain, etc. appeared in an instant. Luan Ying stared at him and asked again: "Why?"

Lai Bao raised his hand, turned his back to him, and said after a while: "Don't you know that I can't afford to be the second sister's family."

Noble's method of silently rejecting Gao Xiang is actually a common method used by girls in this dynasty.

"Is it good to be engaged to that family?"

Don't answer.

"Just nod if you agree."

not moving at all.

"Shake your head if you disagree."

Even more unable to move, motionless.

Generally speaking, someone can guess it in the end, and no nodding or shaking his head is equivalent to agreement.

If there is no such smart person, parents and matchmakers decide to give up. When rejecting the man's family, the girls speak out anxiously, usually in a voice as thin as a mosquito, and they can't hear clearly without sharp ears: "If you don't nod or shake your head, you agree."

So the parents and matchmaker were overjoyed and made a marriage.

Countless letters were written in the name of He Jie, and Luan Ying personally wrote to ask Brother Noble's attitude, but Noble never replied, the attitude of the person concerned has been made clear.

It is impossible for Luan Ying to understand Wu Tanhua, the number one scholar in this essay.

After Noble finished speaking, he was as quiet as a tree.

Luan Ying said: "I understand, so I wrote you another letter before the Chinese New Year. Brother Lai Bao, you should also understand. Second Sister Gao has been waiting for more than a year, and she is still waiting."

It felt wrong to talk to his back, Luan Ying tried to walk in front of Noble, but Noble turned around again and refused to show him face.

His voice was cold: "Second Sister Lao has waited so long, but she won't wait any longer."

Luan Ying said angrily: "How do you know her mood? You stinky brother who doesn't reply to letters."

"Brother Ying, the Gao family is a famous family. The second sister has reached the age of marriage. The Gao family will not allow the second sister to spend time for irrelevant people." Noble remained calm.

Luan Ying jumped up suddenly, and jumped in front of Laibao, shouting: "You are looking at me and talking." Immediately, he was stunned, and said blankly: "Brother Laibao, you"

With a cold voice, Noble had tears rolling down his cheeks. When he blocked it with his hands, he couldn't stop it anymore, and he simply expressed his sadness on his face: "I'm not stupid, can it be that I can't see the love for my second sister from your letters? Yijie Letters written in the name of Brother Ying, each letter says that Second Sister is waiting for Second Sister to reply from me, but Brother Ying, I can’t say it.”

He looked up at the sky, as if this could stop the tears from flowing: "Second sister is the best girl I can meet, from the Gao family, I can't afford it, I should have rejected it long ago, but I have written a few times, When I was going to write that my second sister and I were not a good match, my heart was twisted and I couldn't write. I was too rude to refuse my second sister. How could I refuse my second sister, a good girl? I don't want to reply, even if you and Brother Jie I don't understand, the Gao family will not allow the second sister to wait forever. The second sister will make Gao's family, and I will always bless her."

Luan Ying said: "You are my Brother Noble, you shouldn't underestimate yourself."

Laibao wiped away tears: "If I have an official position now, even if I am a ninth rank, I dare to go to the Gao family to propose marriage. The Gao family can disagree, but I have lived up to my second sister's heart. But I haven't passed the imperial examination yet." , if I don’t win, but respond to my second sister’s affection first, then who am I? Her affection binds her, and she is only waiting for me. My father told me that if I do something wrong, I will not pass the imperial examination."

He looked at Luan Ying: "I only wish I didn't meet my second sister a few years ago, so that I would leave the examination room as early as you, and my second sister can wait for me to take one subject and two subjects, instead of facing my second sister shamelessly now." Affection, because I can't promise her."

Luan Ying looked at him speechless, and let out a long breath.

That night, he wrote a letter to Gao Mingying, saying that Brother Laibao had affection for Second Sister Gao, but he had various concerns, which Uncle Gao guessed correctly, such as not daring to climb high.Some people of the same age as Luan Ying couldn't guess it right. For example, Noble thought that he was not even qualified to refuse.

After finishing writing and sealing it, I will sleep with the new episode tonight. I will leave tomorrow morning, and I will hand it over to General Niu to send it off on my behalf. Let Uncle Gao take care of the future. Sister Gao is his daughter, and Brother Laibao will be his son-in-law in the future.

In the early morning of the next day, Xinji sent off with loud gongs and drums. Luan Ying was extremely embarrassed: "It's my first time to lead the army. I haven't made any achievements yet. Great-grandfather, grandfather, this is not good."

The old man Yuan looked older, his legs and feet were still steady, and he came over happily holding water and wine: "If I don't respect you again, I'm afraid I will be a general. Come and drink this cup, it's very interesting. I envy you when I read a book." The general is leaving on an iron horse, I don’t think I can see him off today, haha.”

Luan Ying was wearing armor, she knelt down on one knee and drank, the second cup was brought by Qi Dong, and Qi Dong also had a bright face, and the third cup was supported by Mrs. Song. The body has been tough all these years.Luan Ying also drank dry one by one.

The sons sent back by Yuan Gong, Yuan Min, and Erfang Zhen all saw them off here, and Qiu couldn't help feeling homesick again.

The school is on holiday today for seeing off. Noble is here, and Baitang is here too. Baitang is all smiles: "The teacher is right, sending the general's iron horse to the expedition, this is the first time."

Luan Ying grinned when she heard that, whoever general took 1000 people to go to the expedition, this is just the love of her aunt and the care of her uncle, so that she can get some small credits in the northwest. Take your time.

This general has gone to save money, so it is uneasy to see him off like this.

Luan Ying got on the horse, cupped her fists and bid farewell, secretly expressing her guilt.
