Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 57, the proposal is a surprise
The heat wave rolled in, and the surrounding people dispersed in silence. In such a situation, Yuanxiu, who was standing in a daze at the gate of Qi's house, couldn't move a single step. The difficulty of not being able to solve Yanyan's problems immediately made her heart sink. In front of him, there was an overwhelming official authority covering the sky and the sun, and layers of uneasiness gushed out from his limbs, making Yuanxiu's hands and feet feel cold in the heat.

She held onto the wall with her hands, and still felt that she could not stand steadily. A voice in her instinct asked repeatedly: What's wrong, is there something wrong? I feel something bad is coming. What is it, what is it?
"Sister Xiu."

Everyone was gone, and Youzhen saw Yuanxiu at a glance, he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, he handed the gong to the yamen servant, and walked in front of Yuanxiu, his eyebrows and eyes were more blooming, and the moment he made a sound, it was haha, everyone around here The official prestige is too heavy, You Zhen looked around, then put down his voice again.

"Hurry up and go home, come here, lower your head and stand behind Uncle Shi, don't let people look at you easily, Uncle Shi will take you home."

When the girls go out to read the new collection, Youzheng suddenly pays attention to "not showing your face", which is surprising, but Yuanxiu is flustered and dazed, and he doesn't hear what Youzheng is saying at all.

What do people think when they are helpless?Go home, hide or ask for help, home is the best place.

Youzhen walked in front, Yuanxiu walked behind, nurse Xu and little girl Qiucao followed into Qi's house just now, when they met Jingjie, they were scared and hid behind the door, seeing that the girl could walk, they hurriedly followed.

Before the master and servant took two steps, they saw a few fast horses galloping across the empty street. Amidst the whirring of their robes, some officials with the posture of an official went up to them. where?"

"His Royal Highness King Wei, Princess Wang, Prince Wang and Bachelor Wang are coming soon, adults please prepare to welcome them now."

Another man on horseback recognized the officials, found out the officials from the official robes, and without hesitation to get off the horse, shouted loudly: "Master Niu of this province, my prince has something to say, before he comes, don't pay homage to Yuantian." Come in, wait for the lord to meet him at the first meeting."

Except for Mr. Niu's promise, other promises came one after another, and then everyone stood in line, planning to go outside, especially worried. He was in charge of Xinji Town, and His Royal Highness King Wei came, so he couldn't back down. Besides, he didn't want to back down .

Calling Yuanxiu to walk a few steps faster, Youzhen put his hand on his lower back at the same time, bit his teeth lightly, and there was a slight gasp.

Not long ago, he hurt his hip.

Zhu Ming sent someone to inform him first, and said a few words, Youzhen fell over excitedly, because he facilitated this marriage, proud and proud, he was so proud and happy, he didn't feel the fall and hurt his hip, and he went out of the office to knock on the copper vigorously. The gong, the gong weighed more than ten catties, and the gong hammer was not light, especially from the waist down to the thigh, the pain came out little by little.

Hi, it's still the best medicine, especially when you took care of Yuanxiu's footsteps abruptly, he sent Yuanxiu's master and servant back to Yuan's house like a shooting star.

Yuanxiu stood at the door of his house in a daze, watching Uncle Shi trotting to catch up with the official train in the distance, the long sleeves of his long robe were swaying, and the neatness was still intimidating.

Mrs. Zhen trotted over and held Yuan Xiu's hands, her eyes filled with anxiety: "Sister Xiu, you are back. I don't know what happened. A bunch of high-ranking officials are here. You Uncle You Shi came in and said a few words, let the old man Don't panic, but take your second uncle away, what kind of heaven did this happen?"

Zhen Shi anxiously forgot to look for Yuan Hui, Yuan Xiu thought about it, but Yuan Hui would be taken care of at Qi's house, so she didn't mention it, and comforted Zhen Shi: "Second Aunt, don't worry, let's go see grandfather now, and listen to what grandfather said. explain."

When seeing Mrs. Yuan, Mrs. Zhen and Yuanxiu were frightened to death. The old man put on new clothes and a new hat in the June weather of the lunar calendar. a dead man.

Zhen cried loudly: "Father, why did you change into the shroud?"

Yuan Xiu, who had been the housekeeper for several years, also cried bitterly.

The old man is a person who waits for death all his life. He is afraid of scaring his children and grandchildren, so he never tells them what happened in Beijing, but he urges him every year to repaint his birthday material and re-examine his shroud.

Saying that he was going to die, the Yuan family had already prepared for it.

At this moment, no one could remember Yanyan's marriage, everyone from Zhen's family to Yuanxiu guessed that disaster was imminent, they tugged at the lapel of the old man Yuan, knelt in front of him and wept loudly.

The old master Yuan had a trace of unbearable pity, and called Zhen Shi: "Daughter-in-law, they want me, don't worry about your husband, he will send it back."

He patted Yuan Xiu again: "Xiu, grandpa can't wait to see you find a good son-in-law. If you find one, burn incense to your grandparents and say wow."

"Grandfather, what's the matter, what's the matter?" Yuan Xiu kept asking.

The old man of the Yuan Dynasty fixed his mind and soul, and spent his whole life nourishing his energy at this time, even if he left, he would leave with majesty and unyielding.

"Daughter-in-law, sister Xiu, get up."

After stroking his beard, he calmly said, "You don't know the inside story, he ran in to congratulate me, saying that all the adults in the province and the nobles in the capital came to see me, he didn't understand, it's hard to come back after I leave, But fortunately, there are no tigers and wolves barging in, it should be because I have some notoriety in the teaching town, and they are willing to let me leave home with dignity."

"Why, why?" Zhenshi and Yuanxiu were still wailing.

"I have never done anything wrong in my life, and I am not afraid of being buried everywhere." The old man put on a proud face, imagining himself as a plum blossom in the ice and snow.

The sound of hurried steps came, the house of the Yuan family was placed in the town and it was owned by everyone. In fact, it was not that deep. Outside, teacher, please go to greet me, you should hurry up."

The old master Yuan lifted the corner of his clothes, let out a cold breath from his nose, let out a sharp hum, turned his head to look at Yuan Xiu, full of kindness: "Go and prepare tea, don't lose the prestige of the family."

How much prestige can a commoner have towards His Highness?

But the old master Yuan said forcefully, Yuanxiu straightened his back inexplicably, and watched his grandfather follow Youzhen out of the courtyard, Yuanxiu pulled Zhen Shi who was still crying: "Second aunt, don't cry, you come and help me get rid of it." Fruit tea."

Walking to the gate, the old man raised his head and looked at the official robe angrily, as if he was facing an enemy. King Wei saw it, and recalled Princess Dayi's confession: "Brother Huang, please calm down in the past, and don't scare the Yuan family."

Sure enough, the princess' words were still so reasonable, and this scene made her guess in advance.

King Wei thought of this, and found that the clothes on the opposite side seemed to be wrong, deep purple tuanhua Shou character gown, big hat, embroidered belt, dare to feel that this great Confucian is at home with nothing to do, he is fully dressed, and he is not afraid of heatstroke, which is not bad.

King Wei is also fully dressed as Wang Jia, but this is different. He knew in advance that he was coming to propose marriage, and even if someone from the Yuan family told him in advance, he would not be dressed as His Highness King Wei. not suitable.

Today is an auspicious day for him to come to make an engagement, and it is a time of great joy. He has not yet seen that it is a shroud, and he does not dare to imagine that it is a shroud.

Don't think about gossip, he took out a kit from his arms, which was also given to him by Princess Dayi, took a look at it, and nodded to Wang Xueshi: "Wang Gong, please meet your old friend, this is your old imperial examination The confidant at that time, Yuan Tianjin is also."

Wang Xueshi squinted his eyes, thinking that the clothes of the old man opposite him were not right, and they were brand new, like a shroud. Hearing what King Wei said, Wang Xueshi straightened his eyes and looked Yuan Tianjin up and down. After a few glances, water vapor gushed out of his eyes, and he choked up in his words.

Staggering forward: "Old Yuan, are you still alive? I'm Wang Wan."

The old master Yuan gasped, and looked up and down, left and right at Xueshi Wang. The familiar outline came into his mind, and he caught Xueshi Wang's hands with tears streaming down his face: "Old Wang, what I have thought about for decades No, you're still here, that's great."

King Wei smiled, the imperial sister is not a man, but Yasai Guigu, she said: "I like the Yuan family, but the family status is very different, and it may be frightening to propose marriage rashly, please come to the imperial brother, and then invite Wang Xueshi Together, the Yuan family will definitely agree."
