Hou Mansion has a daughter to marry

Chapter 137 The Dust Settles
Rong'anhou Mansion.

Seeing that the [-]th day of the eighth lunar month was approaching, the mansion was decorated with lanterns and festoons, making it very lively.

"Qingshuang, follow me to the room." Xie Changan raised his feet and went outside, glanced at the red lanterns and red paper-cuts everywhere, and smiled with his lips curled up, but there was an indelible worry in his eyes, and the pain under his feet was more than unconscious. sooner.

After Xie Chang'an came back, the old lady Xie was full of energy, and finally she didn't have to linger on the sick bed, but her old face could not be recovered overnight. Seeing that it was more vicissitudes than before, she was much more cheerful, and the fierce aura around her was also gone. After a few minutes, call the servants in the upper room to give an amnesty.

"Grandmother, An'er is here to see you." Xie Chang'an walked up to the old lady Xie with a smile, and walked down beside the old lady affectionately. Bring the skin to the mouth of Mrs. Xie, "Grandmother, taste it quickly, are these grapes sweet?"

"No matter how sweet it is, it's not as sweet as An'er's little mouth." The old lady Xie Si Xiaofei looked at Xie Chang'an with a smile, her vicissitudes of eyes were still penetrating, "An'er, we are the grandparents and grandchildren here, so don't beat around the bush... ...Come here today, but because of Xiao Yu?"

Xie Changan peeled a grape by himself and put it in his mouth. After tasting it carefully, he said with a smile: "Sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy. Before An'er said anything, grandma's heart is like a mirror, so An'er will no longer hide it. It's over, I just hope grandma won't make fun of An'er for being unreserved."

The old lady Xie Xie Chang'an glanced sideways, "You were brought up by your grandmother, how could your grandmother not know your nature?" After a pause, "Forget it, An'er, you don't need to say anything, grandmother just tell you one thing, you and Grandmother has no intention of interfering in Xiao Yu's marriage, if you are still afraid of something going wrong, you can go to your father and tell him that it is my intention."

"Father?" Xie Changan couldn't help thinking wildly in his heart, and suddenly smiled bitterly, "Is it the head of the Hou Mansion..."

"An'er, grandma said a few days ago, don't blame your father, he loves you after all! Your father wanted you to marry that Yan Shizi, it was for your own good, not for clinging to anyone " Mrs. Xie got up and pulled Xie Changan out, walking very slowly, "An'er, your father never favored your sister, and your mother has reformed herself now. Now, what you want is the peace and harmony you want. Lele's family?"

One autumn rain and one cold, the scorching summer gradually recedes, and the flamboyant green leaves visibly turn into golden yellow, and soon disappear with the wind, embellishing the land that has gradually become depressed after bearing fruit.

"Father."

Xie Chang'an knocked on the door and pushed it in. When he looked up, he saw Rong Anhou squinting his eyes tiredly, raising his hand to gently rub his temples, but when he saw her again, he hurriedly put down his hand, coughed twice, and straightened his expression. Still looking as majestic as a mountain, the unnaturalness is faintly visible under the calm expression, "An'er..."

After taking it to the door, Xie Changan walked to the desk, "Father, if you are tired, take a break." He poured a cup of tea and handed it to Marquis Rong An, "At this moment, can father listen to An'er to say a few words? talk?"

Marquis Rong An gave his hand a pause, and then hurriedly took it, "An'er just tell me what's going on, and listen to my father." Taking a sip of the tea, he inexplicably felt that this tea was very good, better than the ones he had drunk in the past.Unconsciously, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, with a smile.

"Father, An'er came today to ask Father...whether he wants An'er to marry Prince Yan, or King An?" When talking about his life's major events, Xie Chang'an did not hesitate at all, standing in a calm and generous manner. Marquis Rong An stepped forward with a smile on his face, looking like a noble lady.

Slightly startled, Marquis Rong An came back to his senses, and said bluntly: "The marriage between An'er and King An was personally arranged by the Queen Mother, so I can't help but decide for my father. An'er is naturally married to King An. Why did Prince Yan say that?" ?”

"Father, there are no outsiders here today. An'er just wants to hear what is in my father's heart, the truth." Xie Chang'an's clear eyes looked at Rong Anhou's unnatural eyes without hesitation, "Seeing is the fifteenth day of August. ...Father, An'er only wishes to be married with peace of mind."

After a long while, Marquis Rong An didn't speak again, but only took a sip of tea from time to time until the tea cup bottomed out, then raised his head, his eyes were deep, and he said in a deep voice: "An'er, father wants you to marry Prince Yan."

Xie Changan was not surprised, he only asked, "Why?"

"Yan Shizi is both talented and beautiful, and he just matches you. Although the king of An County, although he has a crush on you, he is not a person who knows what is cold and what is hot." After a pause, Rong Anhou sighed: "An'er, you Sending you to Fujian when you were young was a helpless act, but in the end it was because of my father who treated you poorly, because my father only hoped that you would have a better life in the future..."

When Rong Anhou was speaking, Xie Chang'an's clear eyes were fixed on Rong Anhou's eyes, until he was sure that Rong Anhou was really sincere, Fang felt his heart warmed up, and all the past suddenly disappeared like a passing cloud.

"Father, if you want An'er to have a good life, just listen to An'er's words. An'er is really willing to marry Xiao Yu. If you change to Yan Shizi, it will not be beautiful... and my sister and Yan Shizi are in love with each other, and An'er will also marry Xiao Yu." I want to see my sister live better."

Xie Changan stepped forward to refill the tea for Marquis Rong An, and smiled, "Grandmother has something to say, let me tell my father, what An'er means is what grandma means."

"In this case..." After only half a sentence, Rong An Houfu raised his head to look at Xie Chang'an again, with inquiring eyes, "An'er, you really married Prince An? Could it be because of your sister..."

Hearing a chuckle, Xie Chang'an's cold voice sounded, "Father, An'er is not stupid, how could he compromise for the sake of his sister?" After laughing, Xie Chang'an was at ease in his heart, hesitating for a moment, then suddenly shy, He opened the mouth and said, "Father, An'er is happy with the king of An County."

"An'er...what did you call father?" Rong Anhou's heart was shaken, he looked at Xie Chang'an in disbelief, and asked stumblingly, "Did you hear me wrong just now?" Father and father are no different. The father and son of the monarch and minister, Xie Changan's "father", broke the invisible barrier between the two.

Xie Chang'an feigned anger, "Father, if you don't understand what you heard, just pretend you didn't hear it. Once Zuo An'er finished speaking today, I'm going to talk to my sister." He closed the door angrily, and the clear footsteps gradually faded away.

Just when Rong Anhou was regretting endlessly, Xie Changan, who had gone and returned, suddenly opened the door of the room, jokingly smiled, and a crisp "Father" came out of Xie Changan's mouth, and then walked away.

Not long after, the people in each room received news that they had dinner together in the main room today, to "clean up the dust" for Xie Chang'an.

After the whole family had a happy dinner, they wrote a book and sent it to Prince Zhong's residence.Worried about Xiao Yu's injury, Xie Chang'an sent a letter to the Prince Zhong's mansion every three days or two, causing Qingshuang who received the letter to laugh jokingly, secretly thinking that Xie Chang'an was interested, but he dared not say anything on the surface.

Prince Zhong's Mansion.

"Mother, when will my son see Chang'an again?" Xiao Yu, who was mostly healed, leaned against the loyal concubine, heartbroken, and counted carefully. It has been more than half a month since I saw Xie Chang'an, even the close letters could not A solution to Xiao Yu's lovesickness.

Princess Zhongqin shook Xiao Yu's head with a smile, "You! Rest in peace of mind, and you will be able to see Chang'an the day you become the bridegroom's official!" Glancing at Xiao Yu, who was still dissatisfied, Princess Zhongqin was persuasive, " Once Chang An enters the door, you can look at it whenever you want, and no one will stop you."

Xiao Yu nodded as a matter of course, Jun's face was full of vigor, with a smile on his face, "That's natural!" Suddenly his face fell down, "Why are there still fifteen days! It will be fine if it's tomorrow!"

Concubine Zhongqin shook her head helplessly, "Keep an inch! Don't think about it so much, rest assured, and be a majestic bridegroom official on August [-]th!" After a pause, she suddenly remembered something, "Yu'er, some time later You have to go to the palace to see your imperial grandmother, for your affairs, your imperial grandmother has been worrying a lot, and she has sent people to inquire about your situation all day long, and the rare medicinal materials have never been used up." Xiao Yu No matter how favored they are, the imperial guards are not transferred just because they say they are transferred, and once they go for a long time, they cannot avoid being caught by others. Even the empress dowager of a country must follow the laws of the country and family rules.

Xiao Yu nodded, "I'll go and see the emperor's grandmother after I've walked better, but the child is not filial!" Xiao Yu's right leg has not yet recovered, and now is the critical moment, in order not to become a lame in the future, Xiao Yu has no choice but to hold back.

After the well-behaved Prince Ren Zhong fed a bowl of soup, Xiao Yu leaned on the couch, his cool eyes thoughtful, and said for a long while: "Mother, if I tell the imperial grandmother about my recovery, what do you think?" ?”

Concubine Zhongqin smiled, "Yu'er, you are a thoughtful person, you can do whatever you think, and the mother who is around you can rest assured." After a pause, Princess Zhongqin joked: "Yu'er remembered this today , but you feel deeply guilty towards your imperial grandmother and want to make up for it?"

Xiao Yu was fascinated, and murmured to himself, "After all, the imperial grandmother is old. If this can make the imperial grandmother happy, then it doesn't matter if I am a little more dangerous..."

Princess Zhongqin paused for a while, looked up at Xiao Yu, her face showing uneasiness, "Yu'er, what are you talking about? Dangerous, what danger?"

Consciously slipping her tongue, Xiao Yu hurriedly laughed and said: "Mother, you heard wrongly, the child may say something dangerous, but the sun is just right today, it would be fun if I could go out and have a look."

Concubine Zhongqin was dubious, she only stared at Xiao Yu's clear and innocent handsome face, and said seriously for a while: "Yu'er, if there is anything, you have to tell mother, don't let mother worry all day..."

"Mother, don't worry, now there is the emperor's grandmother and uncle pampering Yu'er, and there is Chang'an with extraordinary skills. No one dares to eat that ambitious leopard to harm me, so don't worry, mother!" The concubine still showed worry, Xiao Yu hurriedly continued to comfort her, "Who would dare to harm me because I stay in the mansion all day long? And I am so smart, how can I let others slaughter me? Mom, don't worry!"

"This is also..."
