Rebirth: Hug Chu Guogong's Thigh Tightly

Chapter 68 Marriage
It was late at dusk, Xia Keyu and Fan Yin went back to the little Xia's house together under the orange setting sun.

In the hall, Xia Fengyuan was angry with Fan Shuyao. As soon as he saw his daughter, he immediately changed into a loving father's face, and stepped forward with a smile. There was even a bit of flattery in his enthusiasm, and asked:

"My dear daughter, it was bumpy all the way here?" Then she turned around and reprimanded her servants, "Why don't you serve tea to the eldest lady soon?!"

Deliberately put on airs to express yourself.

Fan Shuyao next to her was red-eyed and silent.

Xia Fengyuan immediately motioned for Xia Keyu to sit down, took the tea from the servants himself, and handed it to Xia Keyu.

Xia Keyu saw Xia Fengyuan's actions in his eyes, and did not refuse immediately, took the teacup, took a sip of tea, and asked pretendingly and unintentionally:
"Father, is there something wrong with calling me back?"

The more Xia Fengyuan looked at this daughter, the more satisfied he became, he couldn't help but smile from ear to ear, and said:

"People from Duke Chu's mansion just came to propose a marriage, and my father has already accepted it for you. In the future, you can rest at home and wait for marriage." He decided not to mention that he had received 10 taels of silver bills from Duke Chu's mansion.

Fan Shuyao on the side finally couldn't help it, and asked:
"Yu'er, what kind of person is this Chu Guogong? Have you met him before? How could you let all the ladies in Beijing, big and small, come to our Xia family instead of marrying?"

Without waiting for Xia Keyu's answer, Xia Fengyuan who was at the side immediately said with disgust on his face:
"Look at what you're talking about. Yu'er is now the county lord, and this is the only one in the Great Zheng Kingdom. Naturally, she has something special."

Xia Keyu saw the actions of the two of them, Fan Shuyao was worried about her daughter jumping into the fire pit, Xia Fengyuan, a father, was afraid that selling her daughter would be slow.

Fan Yin, who had been silent by the side, sneered and said:
"The Duke of Chu is nearly thirty years old and hasn't married yet. Who knows if there is any problem. My uncle must have agreed sooner."

What he said made Xia Fengyuan blush a little. He knew that behind Fan Yin was the representative of the Fan family, so he didn't dare to resist. He just said stubbornly: "Now it's just an engagement, and it's still early before we get married. Why worry?"

His words were overheard by Lu Ying, who was eavesdropping behind the screen, and rushed to inform Aunt Rong and Xia Kelian without stopping.

When Xia Kelian heard that Xia Keyu was actually engaged to Duke Chu, her nose almost crooked.With a mournful face, he said:

"Mom, what should I do? That little bitch Xia Keyu is about to ride on my head."

Aunt Rong was embroidering insoles stitch by stitch. She glanced at her daughter and reprimanded her:
"Look at your poor appearance, where is this? If you can climb up to the third prince, it will be good. Even if you can't, isn't there a ready-made Duke of Chu? She is not married yet, you have plenty of opportunities, even if she is married, there are plenty of opportunities."

"As a human being, you have to be calm."

Xia Kelian looked at her mother eagerly, and begged: "Mother, please help me find a good solution. When my daughter is prosperous, I will never forget my mother."

Aunt Rong calmly bit off the thread on the insole with her teeth, and said, "What are you in a hurry for, you have to wait for the opportunity."

At the same time, a poisonous plan was brewing in her mind.

Xia Keyu at the other end comforted Fan Shuyao for a long time, making her believe that there was no malice in Duke Chu's mansion.

Even so, Fan Shuyao was not at ease, and took Xia Keyu's hand and said with emotion:

"Yu'er, after living for my mother for so many years, I realized that this marriage is no different from the second reincarnation of a woman. This is marrying an official to be a wife, marrying a butcher to turn intestines, marrying a blacksmith to play with a hammer. As a mother, I don't want you to suffer like my mother."

Speaking of this, Fan Shuyao's eyes were full of tears.

Xia Keyu hurriedly handed her the handkerchief, Fan Shuyao took the handkerchief, and seemed to have made up her mind again:

"If you don't want this marriage, I, my mother, will ask your grandfather. Even if I risk offending Duke Chu, my mother is not afraid."

Seeing this, Xia Keyu had no choice but to tell Fan Shuyao the news that the eldest son of Gaoli intended to marry him, and he did not forget to promise: "As long as I want to cancel this marriage, I can cancel it at any time."

Although Fan Shuyao was skeptical, but she was even more unwilling to marry her daughter to Korea, so she didn't say anything now.

Duke Chu in the suburbs had been waiting for a long time after successfully hunting the first wild goose. Seeing that it was getting late and the birds were returning home one after another, they did not wait for the second wild goose.

But if tonight's divination goes well, go to Xia's house tomorrow to inform the matter, still need to use geese as a gift.

Seeing that it was getting late, an elderly steward of the mansion hurriedly persuaded:

"Grandfather, why do you have to be so embarrassing when you buy a goose tomorrow. You can use a woodcut goose, or you can use goose, duck, and chicken instead. No one will say anything."

Chu Yuan just kept silent, and continued to ride his horse to patrol around the suburbs.

He insisted on hunting the wild geese by himself and doing it himself.

The geese are a symbol of chastity, and it is more sincere to hunt them down and send them off in person.

Suddenly, a faint bird call caught his attention.He pricked up his ears, drew his bow and shot arrows neatly, and after a whine, everyone cheered in unison: "It's hunted down, it's hunted down."

Only then did Chu Yuan take a deep breath, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a smile.

On Duke Chu's mansion, the ancestral hall was brightly lit.

The old lady Chu was neatly dressed and waiting at the front of the ancestral temple, and a large group of people from the second room and the third room next to her stood cautiously behind her.

Several people in the crowd looked at each other and looked at each other. For some reason, the old lady wanted to gather everyone in the ancestral hall at night.

Could it be that who made a big mistake and opened the ancestral hall for punishment?

Thinking of this, Chu Xiu of the third room couldn't help asking: "Mother, what's the big deal today?" This sentence asked the hearts of everyone.

Mrs. Chu didn't hide anything, she just said calmly, "There is something wrong."

Chu Xiu of the third room is the old lady's own son, and only he dared to continue: "It's getting late, mother, how about starting earlier?"

Mrs. Chu looked outside, shook her head and said, "No hurry, wait for Chu Yuan to come back." Then she closed her eyes and began to rest her mind.

When others heard the word Chu Yuan, they dared not speak again.

No one knows that Chu Yuan is the real uncle of the current crown prince, and his sister is the current queen.

Dafang really gave birth to a pair of good children.

After waiting for a long time, I finally saw Chu Yuan walking over with a few subordinates, one of whom was holding some documents in his hand.

"Have you got it?" Mrs. Chu only asked lightly.

"Yes." Chu Yuan's answer confused everyone even more.

"Go and offer a stick of incense to the ancestors." Mrs. Chu instructed.

Seeing that Chu Yuan lit the incense respectfully, some of the people who knew it already saw that the old matriarch gathered all the people together at night to marry Chu Yuan.

Duke Chu, who is nearly thirty years old, is getting married?

This news, like a boulder, caused ripples in the hearts of everyone in the Chu family.
