Chapter 247 Matchmaker (2)

The moonlight was as cool as water and sprinkled the whole courtyard. On the rocking chair in the corridor, there was a celadon wine jug on the table next to it. Xu Sihai was holding a celadon wine glass in his hand, half lying on the rocking chair, looking blankly at the half-hidden place covered by the clouds in the sky. half moon.

Aunt mentioned Jiang Shan's marriage to him, Xu Sihai raised the wine glass to his mouth, took a sip without taste, he hadn't thought about getting married yet, but he knew he would have a family sooner or later, Xu Sihai took another sip , lifted the flagon and poured himself a full glass, with no taste in his mouth, no thoughts in his heart.Marry who is not to marry, that is, Jiang Yanhui, sooner or later he will not be able to marry a nameless and faceless woman?Jiang Yanhui has already married one.Xu Sihai grinned silently, although it was a memorial tablet, she was still married.

She is Yan Hui's direct sister, Xu Sihai frowned, he can't remember whether he has seen her, it doesn't matter if he sees her or not, she is Yan Hui's younger sister, that's enough.

I am sorry for Yanhui, and even more sorry for her!Xu Sihai felt a throbbing pain in his heart. For more than a year, he tried his best to avoid this matter, and he almost couldn't remember it. It was his ignorance and selfishness that caused Yanhui and her. He already had an appointment, Xu Sihai raised his head and poured the wine in the glass into his mouth, this glass of wine is really bitter!My heart hurts!

If it weren't for his stupid bet, how could there have been a series of accidents later?Why did she get involved in the biggest housework mess in the world?Yan Hui went out with the army, he knew his intentions, he knew it clearly even if he didn't say it, just like he knew himself, he tied himself in the army of King Shou, and he was trying to draw the Jiang family to King Shou, and he himself Why not?In fact, there is no need for Mr. Guan to try to persuade him like that. He invited him to join Ninggan. He tried to see if he could use this to pull the Xu family to the other side. Apart from the pain, he also felt guilty. He wished her well more than Yan Hui.

Only when Shou Wang is safe and Jinning Prince's Mansion is safe, can she be safe.

Xu Sihai poured another glass of wine, sighed inexplicably, he always wants to get married, she is Yanhui's younger sister, he knows that Yanhui loves this younger sister the most, he is willing to marry her, he is more willing to treat her well for the rest of his life, treat her well To his own limit, for Yan Hui, for her, he was happy, Xu Sihai felt a little better.

After drinking a glass of wine, he picked up the jug again, Xu Sihai shook it, the jug was already empty, Xu Sihai raised the jug to look, opened his mouth to call a servant, but swallowed it before he could speak, the wine is here, so be it, In the days to come, he wants to bury the past, he wants her to live well, and he wants him and her to feel at ease.

Xu Sihai stood up with the armrest of the chair, shook back and forth a few times, raised the cup in his hand to look at it, raised his hand and threw it into the yard, raised his hand to look at it, raised his hand again and threw it out, raised two cups He clapped his hands, sighed a long time, turned around and entered the room staggeringly.

The news that Xu Sihai was engaged to Jiang Shan and Xu Sihai led them to Ninggan Mansion to supervise the relief missions spread at the same time, and became the most hotly discussed topic in the capital for a while.

Concubine Jiangjun felt that she should be happy, but her heart was like a ball of cotton wool, and she was not happy at all.When she found out about this marriage, she even posted a quick post. What is this called?Her aunt is simply a decoration.Princess Jiangjun sat on the couch with a sullen face, thinking about it, she felt that this must be what made her unhappy.Forget it, this matter is not worth worrying about!This matter is not worth worrying about, Princess Jiang's heart surged with sourness, how did that girl Ah Shan get such good luck, to marry such a good friend as Xu Sihai who is hard to find even with a lantern!It is said that Xu Shangshu brought Xu Sihai to ask for marriage in person, and I also heard that Xu Sihai vowed that he would never wrong Ah Shan in this life!Where did Ah Shan cultivate this in her life?

Princess Jiang's sourness became more and more intense one after another, and A Ke's marriage was not even a word!This marriage is a matchmaker guaranteed by Mrs. Xu. Like a daughter-in-law, why don't you mention such a good marriage to A Ke first?In what way is Ake worse than Ashan?If you say that A Ke is careless, then A Shan is not as good as A Ke!
well!Heart is under the kyte!Concubine Jiangjun sighed angrily again, she was also to blame for this matter, when the Xu family chose that way, she became frightened, and she didn't dare to ask anyone to talk about Xu Sihai's marriage, if she wasn't so scruples about face, if If you try your best, this rare close friend in the world is destined to be A Ke's!

Princess Jiangjun's inexplicable remorse has lasted for many years.

Mrs. Sun received the letter half a day later than Concubine Jiangjun. After listening to Madam Lu's low report, her face was ashen and pale.Nanny Lu looked at Mrs. Sun worriedly, and couldn't help persuading: "It's not a big deal, old ancestor, don't think too much, it's been a month, you don't sleep well every night, and the other day added more For the problem of night sweats, you have to take good care of yourself, not for yourself, but for the Ye family."

"I know!" Mrs. Sun raised her hand impatiently and interrupted Nanny Lu: "I'm getting old..." Before finishing a sentence, Mrs. Sun's impatience dissipated into boundless fatigue and sadness: " How do you let me sleep? No one in the whole house cares about such a big matter? How do you let me sleep? Sigh!" Madam Sun sighed in pain and disappointment: "I really If you want to close your eyes and die, you don’t have to worry about it once you kick your legs off.”

"The old ancestor is serious, but it's just a marriage..." Nanny Lu carefully persuaded with a smile, and Mrs. Sun waved her hands tiredly and oldly: "The strong wind starts at the end of the day, and when it comes to the shocking event, it is already a result. Now, it’s all about small things that matter, but this mansion..." Mrs. Sun was heartbroken and desperate, and she drew a circle with trembling fingers: "Everyone in this mansion only cares about big things, and no one cares about small things! Dongyang County Prince's Mansion, this Ye Family, is about to fall!"

"The old ancestor is serious, why is this? Others don't say it, but the uncle is careful and cautious, and the old ancestor often praises it?" Mother Lu hurriedly persuaded, and Mrs. Sun smiled bitterly: "Forget it, forget it, don't talk about it." , this marriage, alas, I often regret it these days, you said, wouldn't it be better if the fourth brother had married that girl Tiantian?"

"Old ancestor, don't say such things, fourth master can get the help of Marquis of Chang'an, what a help!" Mother Lu's heart almost skipped a beat, subconsciously looked around, and hurriedly lowered her voice Persuading, Mrs. Sun laughed, and said with a bit of disdain: "Marquis Chang'an? That old fox, what does a granddaughter mean to him? It's a son, a grandson, everything is nothing! The Zhu family's help is in the end! I don’t know if I haven’t! Alas, these days, the more I think about it, the more I regret it. Sister Tian, ​​look at this marriage, I didn’t expect that she would draw such a line. Xu Sihai’s marriage is the biggest marriage between Xu Shangshu and his wife. What's on my mind, just like Jiang Yanhui's marriage stumped the entire Jiang family, she persuaded Xu Sihai, maybe... she is the only one who can persuade Xu Sihai. "

Mrs. Sun's mouth was full of sarcasm: "She brought the Jiang and Xu families together with one hand, the Xu family felt her kindness, and the Jiang family felt even more the love of her. The family must be extremely willing!"

"That's it, the benefits she can get are limited." Madam Lu weighed her words and continued, Madam Sun shook her head: "I told you, the most important thing is the little things, and the most important thing is that such seemingly Small favors and small affections, one today, one tomorrow, accumulate over time, and people's hearts will pass away."

"It's already this time, how can we allow her to accumulate time and time." Madam Lu hurriedly laughed, and Mrs. Sun looked at the caged flowers and trees outside the window with far-reaching eyes, and nodded slowly: "You are absolutely right, I can't allow her to accumulate so much over time. If I decide to stop, I will stop. I am really old, and I can't make a move until now. If I don't make a decision, I may have no chance. The officials said back then that a [-]% chance is a good chance, no It's a [-]% thing, this matter can't be delayed any longer." Mother Lu understood the meaning of Old Madam Sun's words, and couldn't help shivering shrewdly.

Xu Sihai and Yu Shi Zhao Mingqian's trip to Ninggan Mansion was scheduled to be the day after Xu Jiang's family's small engagement ceremony, and Xu Shangshu and his wife were busy making the small engagement and preparing Xu Sihai's luggage with both joy and worry.In the study outside the Prince's Mansion of Jinning County, the fifth prince and Mr. Guan were sitting opposite each other and drinking tea. Mr. Guan sucked up the tea in the cup with a 'squeak', and exhaled in enjoyment: "We have very good hands, but there are too few of them. Yes, Sun Liu has gone to Ninggan Mansion, this side of the capital..."

"It's hard work, sir." The fifth prince interrupted Mr. Guan and said with a smile, Mr. Guan had a bitter expression on his face: "It's easy to say, Mr. Wu, but Sun Liu's mess, alas, Mr. Wu, don't underestimate Sun Liu. The things about the stalls, although they are all sawdust and bamboo, cow’s milk and horses, but small things can be used in a big way, and “Mr. It’s not something that anyone can manage, and it’s not something that can be underestimated seriously.”

"Others can't do it, Mister can't do it? Sun Liu almost put you on the plate!" The fifth prince laughed, and Mr. Guan stroked his sparse scorched beard proudly and said: "Five masters, since The fifth master has ordered, so I will do my best, Sun Liu's trip is extremely important, the fifth master must explain it carefully, and it is best to let the princess also say a word." Mr. Guan glanced at the fifth prince and said with a smile: "Don't be annoyed by this, Fifth Master. This is exactly what Sun Liu can do. Those who don't betray their master are the ones who can be used."

"Sir, I'm thinking too much. I and the concubine are enemies. He respects the concubine as he respects me." The fifth prince smiled nonchalantly. Mr. Guan stared at him with small triangle eyes. Seeing that his face was normal, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. , Smiling and talking about other things.

A few days later, Xu Sihai and deputy envoy Zhao Mingqian set off for Ninggan Mansion. Sun Liu took four or five confidants and set off to follow quietly, heading for Yongjing County of Ninggan Mansion.

The Feiying Fort in Cangzhou Prefecture was built in the middle of the mountain, covering a very large area. In the afternoon, the large gate of the village was bathed in the bright sunset, and the family members in groups of threes and twos chatted and laughed lazily.In the distance, one person and one rider galloped towards Flying Eagle Fort like a projectile that was shot rapidly. .

One rider and one person came from far to near, and almost in the blink of an eye, the black spot galloped up. The servant at the door had clearly seen a black and very handsome woman sitting on the horse like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath.The head of the servant tensed up all of a sudden, holding the handle of the knife halfway out of the sheath, and sternly yelled at the woman on the horse: "This is Feiying Fort, Cangzhou Prefecture. Which friend is here? Please slow down the horse." Otherwise, don’t blame Feiying Castle for being rude!” Immediately, the woman galloped her horse, without slowing down at all, and only raised her voice: “Five Elements Sect Wang Yueniang pays a visit to the second master of Feiying Castle, Chu Hu and Chu Erye!”

Hearing this, the head of the housekeeper relaxed immediately, let go of the hand holding the knife and cupped his hands respectfully: "Please wait a moment, Miss Wang!" While speaking, Yue Niang had already rushed to the gate of Feiying Castle, restrained The horse's head slowed down, and the gatekeeper had already galloped in to pass the pass, but in the blink of an eye, there was a cannon sound inside the Eagle Fort, and the guards at the gate hurriedly lined up with surprise on their faces. Etiquette for honored guests!
Yue Niang reined in the horse and walked slowly, and three middle-aged strong men with strong bodies, full of vigor and vitality rushed out from the opened gate of Flying Eagle Fort. He laughed loudly and said, "It's really Miss Yue Niang who is here. It's so unbelievable! Come in! I haven't seen Miss Yue Niang for more than ten years!"

"Second brother is the same as ten years ago!" Yue Niang got off the horse, and smiled with Chu Hu, and Chu Hu laughed very happily. The master Chu Xiong bowed his hands to meet the ceremony, and Chu Hu let Yue Niang go into Feiying Castle together.
