Do you know the long song of laughter?

Chapter 408: Mrs. Wu's Alertness

Minglan met Li An's gaze and lowered her head shyly, but she quickly raised her head and looked up at Li An, smiling brightly and nodded: "Yeah."

Li An looked at Minglan's smile and smiled happily as well.

The two men returned to their respective carriages, trudged their horses, went to the stables, each chose a horse, and rode to the polo field.

"Zi Qian, I will not show mercy later." Gu Tingye smiled as he watched Li An coming over while riding on his horse.

"Don't brag, wait till you win."

After Li An finished speaking, he whispered to Minglan, "I'll take Zhong Huai with me for a while, and I'll leave the rest to you."

There are four people on the polo team. They are divided into two teams. The weaker ones are the ones on the polo field.

However, they are mostly there to play with the guests, so even if they have good skills, they won't try their best, so don't worry about it.

Minglan glanced at Yu Yanran on the opposite side and said with a smile: "Brother Ziqian, it's just for fun, just play normally."

Although she had never actually seen Gu Tingye's ball skills, she had heard about them, but Yu Yanran could only barely master them.

If Li An kept a close eye on Gu Tingye, it would be easy for them to win.

However, Ang Lee said that this might be dangerous, after all, it is difficult to say anything about horses.

"Okay." Li An smiled, but he felt a little obsessed.

On the other side, Yu Yanran hesitated for a moment and whispered to Gu Tingye, "Sixth Miss is very good at playing polo."

"Oh?"

Gu Tingye was stunned. This was the first time that Yu Yanran took the initiative to talk to him. After Li An and the others left, when he talked to Yu Yanran, Yu Yanran either nodded or shook her head and rarely spoke, let alone took the initiative to speak.

"Don't worry, I'm better!" Gu Tingye said confidently.

He was very confident about these things and didn't care too much about them. How could a girl be so good at polo and take them away?

But after the game started, Minglan's skills really surprised Gu Tingye.

Gu Tingye didn't take it seriously at first, but he was overjoyed and tried his best.

Although Minglan's skills are also superb, she is still slightly inferior to Gu Tingye.

However, Li Ang's skills are much better than Yu Yanran's, and Gu Tingye has Yu Yanran as a burden, so the two sides are evenly matched for a while.

"it is good!"

Inside the tent, Mrs. Wu couldn't help but applaud when she saw such a wonderful duel.

Seeing Minglan's high spirits on the polo field, Mrs. Wu seemed to see herself in the past.

Compared to the performance a few years ago, Minglan's polo skills have improved greatly.

The more Mrs. Wu looked at it, the more she liked it, but soon her expression became a little gloomy.

She basically knew all the girls who were waiting to be married in the powerful families in Bian Jing.

Minglan could be said to be her most ideal candidate for daughter-in-law, but it was a pity that the marriage was arranged so early, otherwise she would definitely ask for Minglan to marry her son.

"Why hasn't Liu Lang come back since he was gone for so long?" Mrs. Wu frowned.

"Madam, the Sixth Young Master is talking to someone over there." A maid said, pointing in a direction below the stands.

Madam Wu looked sideways and saw Liang Han talking and laughing with a girl who looked somewhat familiar. When she thought carefully, wasn't that girl the fourth daughter of the Sheng family?

Mrs. Wu frowned slightly and said, "Go and call him back to me."

"Yes!" the maid responded and hurried away.

After a while, Liang Han came back with the maid and bowed, saying, "Mom, are you looking for me?" "Why did you take so long to go to the toilet?" Madam Wu frowned.

"Mom, I saw a friend and chatted with him for a while." Liang Han said.

"Are you chatting with some girl?" Mrs. Wu said indifferently.

When Liang Han heard this, he knew that Madam Wu already knew about it, so he nodded without hiding it and said, "It's the fourth young lady of the Sheng family."

"Come sit down and talk."

Madam Wu waved her hand and asked Liang Han to sit down next to him. She said, "When did you get to know the fourth young lady of the Sheng family?"

The last time she took Liang Han to the Sheng family, she didn't meet the fourth daughter of the Sheng family.

"Mom, I met you a few times when I accompanied you to Sanqing Temple to burn incense. We talked a few words and that's how we got to know each other," Liang Han said.

Upon hearing this, Madam Wu's brows furrowed into a "川" shape and she said, "Let me ask you, did you take the initiative to talk to her, or did she take the initiative to talk to you?"

No one knows a son better than his mother. Mrs. Wu knows very well what kind of person her son is.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be so determined to choose a capable wife for him.

Her son doesn't have a good reputation because he would go up to talk to a pretty girl when he sees her.

When other girls met him and started talking to him, they would just respond politely and then find an excuse to leave.

However, the fourth daughter of the Sheng family seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation with Liang Han.

"Mom, it's not a matter of who found who first. We met once. She bowed to me and called me Young Master Liang. I didn't see her, so I asked her why she knew me. Then we chatted for a few sentences. Then we met a few more times." Liang Han said.

"Are you interested in her?" Mrs. Wu frowned.

"Miss Sheng is a good-looking girl, and most importantly, she is well-versed in poetry. I like her very much." Liang Han nodded.

"You'd better give up this idea as soon as possible. She is a concubine's daughter and is not worthy of you." Madam Wu said coldly.

Even though Molan didn't take the initiative to talk to Liang Han, she was very unhappy to see a girl talking and laughing with a man from another age.

What's more, when she first took a fancy to Minglan, she asked someone to investigate several girls from the Sheng family.

Except for Hualan and Minglan, she doesn't like the other two.

Liang Han was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Mom, didn't you say that only those with short vision would care about the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children? After a woman gets married, her life will be completely different. How can there be..."

"If the concubine's daughter had a good character, I wouldn't mind. But how could she, an unmarried girl, talk and laugh about poetry and lyrics with a stranger like you?" said Madam Wu.

It’s not that she doesn’t like well-educated and well-mannered girls. Girls study to be sensible and knowledgeable. They are not prostitutes, so what is there to show off?
There is nothing wrong with serving your husband and chatting with him after you get married.

There is no one who is not married and shows off her literary talent with men outside.

"I think the fourth daughter of the Sheng family has good character. The Sheng family is also a scholarly family. The eldest brother is engaged to the Hai family. Didn't you say two days ago that the Sheng family has a bright future?" Liang Han said.

Although Liang Han is a playboy and doesn't like reading, it doesn't stop him from liking women who are eloquent and well-read.

There are many such women in brothels, but Liang Han also knows that they are just trying to curry favor and are not sincere.

On the contrary, Molan, who was also from a prominent family and was proficient in poetry, was not like other ladies from prominent families. When she saw him, she was polite on the surface but looked at him with disdain.

"What's good about that? If you keep talking nonsense, I'll break your legs when I get back!" Mrs. Wu said sternly.

"Yes, I've got it in mind." Liang Han said quickly.

He was still somewhat afraid of his mother.
