White Moonlight of Powerful Officials at large

Chapter 11

Wen Lan was a little surprised when he was outside the door.

I heard early on that Wang You's family is poor, his mother has been sick for many years, his father traveled all over the world, and resold some rare foreign items. It was considered a rare commodity to live in, but because of his straightforward personality, he didn't like dealing with the rich and powerful, so he could only make ends meet and make ends meet.

But when he arrived at the gate, the Wang family was better than he had imagined. At least there was one passable house, and the word "Wang's house" was hung with a wooden sign on the door very carefully.

When the person who called himself Wang You Shutong led him in, he couldn't help but look around.

Although the house is small, it has all five internal organs, and the layout is simple but not crude. It can be seen that the owner is somewhat knowledgeable.

The first impression was quite similar to the Wen Mansion in my childhood.

Wang You stood at the entrance of the main hall with his hands behind his back and waited for him.

After hearing what Wen Ning said last time, Wen Lan couldn't help looking at his face a few more times.

The complexion is fair and white, the black pupils are like ink, the bridge of the nose is high, and there is a very inconspicuous small mole on the left side, but it has a special charm on the clean and solemn face. It is Zhilan Yushu, a modest gentleman, which is indeed unmatched by many noblemen.

Wen Lan could not help but sigh.

Even if Wang You's marriage contract is fake, with his appearance and bearing, how many noble women in Beijing will extend olive branches to him once he is number one, what advantage does the Wen family have?Unless...Wen Ning can agree on the marriage with him before the palace examination.

He clutched his throbbing heart, and he didn't know what kind of evil he had fallen into in Ci'en Temple that day, and he actually wanted to match the two of them, causing all these troubles for nothing.

"Lord Wen." Wang You bowed politely.

Wen Lan hurriedly stopped her: "Forgive me, I'm the one who came to bother you."

Wang You nodded lowly: "Master Wen, please."

Wen Lan followed Wang You's instructions and took a seat. Wang Qinsheng immediately brought tea and poured a cup for each of them.

"I heard that Jingzhao Mansion has a lot of cases recently, Mr. Wen came here, but there are some things that can be spared and still do my best?"

Although Wang Fu has always refused to allow it, Wang You has written some pleadings for others to subsidize the family a few years ago, and Wen Lan has been known for a long time for this.It's just that he only writes the pleadings and doesn't come forward to fight for others. Wen Lan only had the chance to meet him a few times this year.

"Recently, Beijing and central China are indeed not peaceful. During the three-year Spring Festival, candidates from all over the world come to Beijing. Although the general examination has ended, there are still a large number of candidates who want to wait for the results of the imperial examination before leaving. There are also many foreigners who came here to wait Seeing the number one scholar parading the streets, some gangsters fish in troubled waters, and take up several cases of theft every day." Wen Lan sighed, and said seriously, "But I am not here today for business."

Wang You frowned slightly, looked at Wen Lan and said, "Master Wen, please tell me."

Seeing his serious appearance, Wen Lan rolled in her stomach again when she had planned something.

Although he has always been informal and doesn't like the words of his parents and matchmakers, it is even more absurd for many brides who have never even seen one, but Wang You has read four books, and he looks like a gentleman She is as gentle as jade, if she speaks too absurdly, she might scare people away.

"Actually, that's how it is..." Wen Lan thought about it, and said, "Sister-in-law Wen Ning, I've seen it last time in the Temple of Mercy."

Wang You's black eyes were as deep as a dark pool, and he looked at him very seriously, but he couldn't see the sparkle in them, and couldn't read his mood.

Wen Lan could only continue: "We are three brothers and sisters, one is obsessed with medicine, the other is intoxicated with wine, and Ah Ning is crazy about poetry."

Wen Lan's words sounded a little guilty, Wen Ning did admire talents, but that was influenced by the teacher who taught her back then.She was only nine years old when Wen Tingchun caught her to study and read at home. The girl can recite backwards and forwards fluently, but it is too much to say that she loves poetry.

But isn't this just an excuse...

Wen Lan continued: "She often paints and writes poems at home, and she has a lot of confusion in her heart. It's a pity that Wen Qi and I are ignorant, my father is busy with business, and it's a little inconvenient for her to ask a wife when she's a girl who is out of the cabinet... A few days ago, I happened to meet Shuzhi in the monastery, and I thought... If it is convenient for Shuzhi, can I find an opportunity to answer my sister's questions and give me some advice?"

This excuse was found to be high-sounding and elegant, but Wang You is not stupid, the lonely men and widows meet in private, he must understand the implication of this.

Wen Lan has dealt with Wang You several times, and he knows that he is very organized and abides by principles. He doesn't think that he will make up nonsense about marriage as Wen Ning said.

So he came here this time, including saying these words, because he couldn't resist Wen Ning's offensive of tears, and he didn't intend that Wang You would agree.

Whenever Wang You showed the slightest hesitation and embarrassment, he immediately gave him a step, saying that this matter was very inappropriate, and he went home to discuss it with his sister again, and it was considered a job for Wen Ning.

After he finished speaking, Wang You's eyes like dark pools really stirred up a little: "Your sister wants to ask me out?"

"Cough..." Wen Lan was afraid of scaring Wang You, so she spoke so reservedly, but Wang You made it clear.He pretended to clear his throat, and said: "Forgive me, this matter is indeed a bit out of courtesy, it is very inappropriate, if you don't allow me to go home..."

"Recently, there are a lot of people coming and going at home, so it's inconvenient for my sister to come here." Before Wen Lan finished speaking, Wang You said, "Why don't you make an appointment in the restaurant's wing room?"

Wen Lan was taken aback for a moment, never expecting that Wang You did not refuse, but directly agreed.

He opened his mouth and was silent for a while, but Wang You continued: "Yunting Building has many private rooms and elegant seats. Jiangnan dishes are exquisite in appearance and unique in taste. Many women in Beijing often patronize. If Ms. Wen goes to have a meal, It probably won't attract attention."

Even the location has been chosen...

No matter how slow Wen Lan's reaction was, she should have come to her senses, and she was overjoyed immediately. It seems that the concubine has affection, and the husband has intentions, so there is something to be done!
"Of course." Wen Lan responded immediately, "I wonder when Shuzhi will be free recently?"

"How about March eighteenth?"

"Success!" Wen Lan did not hide her joy, patted the seat, got up and said, "Then it will be March [-]th, Yunting Tower, and I will reserve a box in my own name, so I will forgive you a lot. sister."

"Master Wen is polite." Wang You cupped his hands.
