Song Menghua: At the beginning, ask to marry Sheng Minglan

……

the other side.

Just when Ming Lan decided to draw a clear line, Qi Heng also came to Shou'an Hall.

along the way.

The maids and envoys in the courtyard bowed their knees one after another.

In the main hall, Mrs. Sheng was sitting cross-legged on the rug, trimming a freesia flower that bloomed in winter, looking very kind.

Qi Heng bowed and saluted.

"Old Madam Yi'an."

"Your flowers...are so well grown."

The old lady smiled.

Qi Heng is a junior and would come here often, so she didn't pay so much attention to etiquette.

The scissors in her hand didn't stop, she said with a casual smile: "Young master has a heart."

"It's rare that you often visit me, an old woman."

"Quick, sit down."

"Mother Fang, ask someone to make a new pot of tea for the young man."

A woman next to her hastily bowed her knees.

"Yes, old lady."

Qi Heng didn't stop it.

But it didn't take a seat.

Since he came, he didn't think about hesitating and making rounds.

He said directly: "Thank you, old lady."

"However... Yuan Ruo came here because he actually wanted to discuss something with the old lady."

The old lady laughed dumbfounded.

She subconsciously wanted to ask: he is a young man, what can he discuss with an old woman like her?

But when the words came to her lips, she seemed to suddenly remember something.

The movements of her hands gradually stopped, and the smile on her face gradually subsided.

She turned to look at Qi Heng, but fell silent for no reason.

a time.

The originally relaxed and gentle atmosphere gradually solidified.

She looked at Qi Heng for a long time.

Perceived that the latter is always calm, always calm.

She said indifferently: "Mother Fang, please step back for now."

"Okay."

"No one is allowed to come near!"

……

Qi Heng admired secretly.

The old lady is really not simple.

It's right to think about it, she was born in the Yongyi Hou's Mansion, and she has had ups and downs in her life, what has she never seen or experienced?

Although Qi Heng didn't say anything, she clearly guessed his intentions.

"What can he discuss with her as a young man?"

"Naturally it's the people around her."

"And who does Qi Heng care about around her?"

The answer is self-evident.

The old lady said softly: "What does the young man want to discuss with the old woman?"

Qi Heng bowed again.

He first made a complaint: "I also hope that the old lady will forgive Yuan Ruo for being rash and rude."

Then he said earnestly: "I implore the old lady to betroth Minglan to me. If Yuanruo lives in this life, he will never miss Minglan no matter what."

really!

A stern look suddenly appeared in the old lady's eyes, but it was fleeting.

She and Minglan have been living together for so many years, no one knows how much she cares about her sixth girl.

Their feelings have already surpassed that of ordinary grandparents.

There was complete indifference on her face.

"Young master."

"Do you even know what you're talking about?"

Qi Heng looked up.

But don't give him a chance to speak at all.

The old lady continued, "You don't know!"

"If you knew, you wouldn't have said such things to me!"

"If you know, you should know even more. Once word of this gets out, it will not only harm Minglan and the Sheng family, but will even implicate your whole family!"

this moment.

The old lady of the Sheng family was full of aura.

It was also the first time Qi Heng realized that he must not underestimate these people from the Northern Song Dynasty.

Chapter 5

"Old lady calm down."

"I know you may think I'm hotheaded and impulsive."

"But please believe that I have thought twice before coming here, and have considered all the possibilities and consequences."

"My words are definitely not reckless, and Ming Lan is none other than me."

Facing old lady Sheng's stern words, Qi Heng remained calm and calm.

The old lady's face remained unchanged.

But I was quite surprised in my heart.

She certainly has no prejudice against Qi Heng.

On the contrary, she also knew that this Young Master Qi himself was a rare young man in Bianjing City.

He has a good family background, good character, good self-cultivation, and a better reputation.

In particular, even though he came from a noble family, he does not rely on the shadow of his ancestors, he is diligent and studious, and he is indeed the only one who is hard to find among the children of the rich and powerful.

But the problem is.

He is so nice!

Excellent!

Even if she is so good that she doesn't want to admit it, she must clearly realize that Minglan...is not good enough for him!

Not to mention that Liu Yatou was originally a concubine who was not welcome to see.

Even the prostitute of the Sheng family is absolutely difficult to match.

So even if she knew Qi Heng's intentions...she would only choose to pretend to be deaf and dumb like Gu Tingye and others.

Just thinking about it for a long time will fade away.

But who would have imagined that he would be so decisive today, brazenly pointing out this matter!

Thus.

As Minglan's only relative, how could she turn a blind eye and pretend to be deaf and dumb?

……

She sneered and said, "Okay, since you said you thought it through."

"Then let me ask you."

"You are from a famous family, so you should know that since ancient times, whenever a marriage proposal is made, it is always three letters and six engagements, and a matchmaker comes to the door."

"You, a young boy, came to tell the old woman these things, which family reason is this?"

"Or……"

"You want to use the prestige of your Duke's mansion to force Ming Lan to be your concubine?"

Qi Heng shook his head frankly.

"The Sheng family has been clean and respectful throughout the generations, and Yuan Ruozi dared not attempt to offend her."

"What's more, even though Minglan is a concubine, she was raised by the old lady since she was a child, like the apex of her heart, how could Yuan Ruo not know?"

"I came here today just to express my attitude. I implore the old lady's approval, give me time, and wait for my luck."

"that is it."

In other words.

He just expressed his heart and asked for approval?

The old lady's face softened a lot.
