But when Wang Xifeng saw that the two men were coming together, they hurriedly walked out of the corridor and asked curiously: "Why are you two together again?"

"I bumped into him on the way."

Yuanyang smiled and pointed behind him: "The old lady just got two baskets of lychees. She couldn't bear to eat them, so she kept some for herself, and the rest were sent here."

Ping'er also took advantage of the opportunity and said: "The Wang family sent someone to give birthday gifts. I led them this way, and I just bumped into the mandarin duck."

After Wang Xifeng heard this, she turned her attention to the middle-aged woman behind her, looked at her for a few times, and suddenly said: "You came to Fu's house, right? I haven't seen her for a while."

The woman said with a smile on her face: "Miss, you really have a good memory. My husband and I have been outside taking care of Zhuangzi. We haven't been in the capital for seven or eight years. There are many young people in the house who don't remember us. I don't want Miss."

I recognized you at a glance, and all the weirdos said you were the Exquisite Heart with Seven Apertures!"

Wang Xifeng covered her mouth and smiled sweetly: "I don't recognize you, but I still remember your clever mouth - since you are here to give birthday gifts, I will take you to meet the birthday girl first."

After saying that, he turned back to Yuanyang and Heping'er and told him: "Give the lychees to the greedy girls inside. Don't leave in a hurry when you're done. Let's drink a few glasses of wedding wine and eat a bowl of longevity noodles - later

I have some great news to tell you!"

The last words were naturally spoken to Ping'er alone.

After saying that, she led the man from the Fu family to the hall.

Ping'er felt confused, and the mandarin duck next to her pushed her and said with a smile: "What kind of good news is this? The second grandma is still mysterious. Is she trying to promote you as my aunt?"

"Bah~"

Ping'er rolled his eyes at her and spat angrily: "If you really think that being an aunt is a good thing, why did you come to us crying for advice in the first place?"

"Which one is crying?"

"Whoever cries knows."

"Look, look how I deal with you!"

"Oh, I'll fight back if you make trouble again!"

The two of them were joking and quarreling, and their hair was in a mess for a while.

"Ahem~!"

Leng Buding heard a dry cough from someone in the corridor. They followed the sound and found that Jiao Shun was still standing in the corridor.

The two of them hurriedly separated, Yuanyang blushed and turned his back to straighten his collar. Ping'er was much more generous, straightened his collar a little, and said with a smile: "If Uncle Jiao has a discomfort in his throat, you might as well ask our Yuanyang girl for two kilograms of lychees."

Press it."

Yuanyang turned around and glared at her, then bowed neatly to Jiao Shun: "I've met Uncle Jiao."

Jiao Shun nodded in return and praised half-truthfully: "Young girl is really broad-minded. If she were someone who likes to talk about others, she wouldn't tolerate others making fun of her."

"I don't deserve your compliments, I'm just heartless."

Yuanyang lowered her pink neck shyly, and there was a rare softness in her words. Jiao Shun didn't notice anything because he had little contact with her on weekdays, but Ping'er on the side immediately noticed something fishy.

Thinking back to that day, when I mentioned the old story of Mrs. Xu meeting Yuanyang, Yuanyang's unusual reaction immediately made it clear what Yuanyang was thinking.

However, Ping'er didn't mean to reveal it to his face. He just looked at Yuanyang playfully and immediately urged: "Let's send the lychees in quickly. This thing is sent iced. It won't be fresh if it is left to dry in the sun.

Already."

When Jiao Shun heard this, he stepped aside and signaled to the lady that she would have priority. Yuanyang nodded slightly at him, and then directed the servants to carry the two baskets of lychees into the house.

The woman who didn't want to start talking had just walked to the door when suddenly a strange red and green object flew out of it and smashed to pieces on the threshold with a bang.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this.

At this time, I saw a young man rushing out from inside, holding up the broken parts, turning around and crying: "Why did you throw my things?! I got it with such difficulty, you, you...

...Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...www, pay me, pay me, pay me!"

The flying thing looked familiar to Jiao Shun just now, but now that he saw the young man, he suddenly remembered that it was a novel toy he gave to Aunt Zhao.

The identity of this young man is self-evident, he is Aunt Zhao's son Jia Huan.

"Why are you crying?!"

At this time, the voice of Jia Tanchun gritting his teeth came from inside: "I can't bear to see you playing with things and losing your mind like this. If you want me to pay, you can pay. I will pay you a set of four books tomorrow!"

But it turned out that Jiao Shun had just arrived, and Jia Huan came uninvited.

He did not dare to go to the main hall to see Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue, so he quietly slipped into the flower hall.

Since there was no one at the small table for the time being, he sat down next to Tanchun shamelessly and took out the toy his mother had given him to show off to Xichun who was standing aside.

Tanchun was originally dissatisfied with him sneaking in, but when he saw that he was actually showing off the toys that Aunt Zhao had given her body in exchange for, she became even more angry.

Unable to suppress the anger in his heart for a moment, he snatched the deformable magnet toy and threw it fiercely, which triggered the current confrontation.

Li Wan was also startled at first, but now he regained his composure, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold Tanchun in his arms, and said half to dissuade and half to lecture: "Third sister, why should he be harsh on a child? Besides,

What place is this and what day is it? Even if I want to educate my younger brother, I should wait until I get home!"

Tanchun also knew that he had lost his composure just now and was about to get off the donkey. Over there, Jia Huan saw someone trying to break up the fight, but he immediately went crazy and jumped on his feet and said: "You said I was playing with things to lose my ambition, but why didn't you say it?

Second Brother Bao?! It’s not enough for him to have so many maids in his house, he also made several puppets and dolls. Every day..."

"shut up!"

When Tanchun saw him mentioning this, he was afraid that Mrs. Wang would hear it, so he quickly stopped and said, "If you dare to say another word, see how I deal with you when I get back!"

"I'll say it, I'll say it!"

Jia Huan frowned and shouted, "That doll was given to you by you! How can you be so partial to me?! My mother said the same, you have the ability to take care of her!"

"You still won't shut up? I have to let my wife take care of you personally!"

Tanchun was so angry that his whole body was trembling and his chest was heaving when he heard him throw away the family's secrets without asking for money.

Sure enough, he is ‘fat’.

Shi Xiangyun confirmed it with his own eyes and stood up to help: "Brother Huan, please stop making trouble. My wife is in the main hall now. What if..."

"Hmph~"

Xiang Yun persuaded her with good intentions, but she didn't know that Jia Huan also had a grudge against her. When he saw her coming forward, he immediately sneered and said: "Sister Yun is also partial, and even the maids will get the good things.

None of it belongs to me..."

Just as he said this, Jia Huan suddenly felt his body lighten up. He was lifted up with one hand and turned around in mid-air. Then, Jiao Shun's fierce face with Chinese characters appeared in front of his eyes.

Thinking that Shi Xiangyun was his future wife, Jia Huan shrank his neck and was too frightened to speak.

Jiao Shun finally put him down and said seriously: "Sister Yun didn't give you anything because they are for girls to play with - deformed toys and those dolls. If you choose one, which one would you choose?"

Jia Huan blurted out: "Of course the toy is going to be transformed!"

"This is over."

Jiao Shun laughed, pulled him and said, "Come on, let's sit down and have a drink first. When we're done, I'll give you something better than this!"

"really?!"

Jia Huan's eyes widened and he beamed with joy, throwing everything out of his mind, whether he was partial or not.

Everyone was relieved when they saw this, and they were even more envious of Jiao Shun's action of returning to protect Xiangyun. So, led by Lin Daiyu, they began to tease Xiangyun again.

Ignore these for now.

However, he said that because he was blocked outside the door just now, Yuanyang was poking around to figure out what was going on inside, when suddenly he was pulled aside by Ping'er.

"What's wrong?"

Yuanyang asked inexplicably: "I haven't seen clearly what's going on inside, why are you pulling me?"

"Let me ask you."

Then Ping'er looked serious: "Are you focusing on Uncle Jiao..."

She didn't say all the words behind it, but she didn't need a heavy hammer to play the drum. Yuanyang understood what she meant almost immediately. His face turned red at first, but then it dimmed. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Now that things have happened, what's the point of talking about it anymore?

use?"

Ping'er stomped his feet angrily, stretched out his finger to poke Yuanyang's forehead and said: "You are just a stubborn donkey! Since you have such thoughts, tell me earlier and I will help you clear the way and let Uncle Jiao come forward to ask you to go over. You should be early now

Miss Xing and I call each other sisters!"

"It's too late to say anything now."

Yuanyang still shook his head: "It is impossible for me to marry again in this life. You can just pretend that you don't know. If word gets out... I will die anyway!"

"Don't keep talking about whether you will die or not!"

Ping'er said angrily: "Can a living person be choked to death by urinating?"

After a pause, he added: "If you really have this intention, I will tell him secretly and let him..."

"Don't!"

Yuanyang covered her mouth and said categorically: "Since I swore an oath with gods and Buddhas in front of the old lady, I will never marry again in this life! Don't say that Uncle Jiao may not have this intention, even if he really does,

I can never agree!"

"You, you, you!"

Ping'er sighed, hesitated for a long time, and suddenly hesitated: "Actually, even if you don't marry, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can't follow your wishes..."

Yuanyang was puzzled by what she heard, and just as he was trying to get her to explain more clearly, a woman carrying a basket came over to remind her that things had settled down inside, and asked if she wanted to bring the lychees in.

Yuanyang didn't bother to ask any more questions, and hurriedly led the women together with Heping'er to carry two baskets of lychees in and distribute them.

At this moment, another young and beautiful woman joined in, but it was Jia Rong's wife Xu. Because You was in confinement, she was specially sent to take her place.

The temperament of this grandma Xiaorong is very different from the previous Qin Keqing, but somewhat similar to Jia Yingchun. They are both dull and taciturn. They may not be able to answer every question, and they are timid with everyone.

Seeing that the little actors were all ready, Aunt Xue, Mrs. Wang, and Xue Pan finally rushed over.

It's just different from before. At this time, Xue Pan had already washed off his makeup and showed a gloomy expression on his face.

Seeing that his mouth was pouting so much that he could tie up a donkey, Jiao Shun, who was teasing Jia Huan, couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong with you? Could it be that you were scolded by your elders?"

"I……"

Xue Pan grinned widely, but before he could say anything, tears started to flow down. He quickly wiped them with his sleeves and said with a mournful face: "Mother didn't let me talk outside."

Okay~

Are the people at my desk all going to cry a lot today?

Jiao Shun cursed in his heart and felt a little regretful that Baoyu didn't come. He picked up the jug and poured a glass for Xue Pan. He said with a smile, "I can't just forget it. We brothers can get rid of all our worries after getting drunk."

Xue Pan clinked glasses with him, raised his head and drained the bottom, then threw the glass away and patted the table to let the wine bowl sit.

Jiao Shun, who was making trouble at this time, was a little bit too hard to get off. Since he said he would get rid of all his worries by getting drunk, he had no choice but to accompany him to the end.

The two of them ate the food and listened to the opera, and drank three and a half pots in one go.

Among them, Jiao Shun went to the main table and toasted two glasses of wine to the girls, but Xue Pan, the real host, ignored everything and just drank.

By the time Jiao Shun was about four to five points drunk, his eyes were dim and his speech was unclear.

Because his abdomen was bloated, Jiao asked Jia Huan to look after Xue Pan and left the table to go to the toilet.

When he saw Jiao Shun leaving the living room, Ping'er, who was being dragged by Li Wan to sit next to Wang Xifeng, immediately followed him out.

When Yuanyang saw this, he felt suddenly. He was afraid that Ping'er was going to tell Jiao Shun about his affairs, so he quickly apologized and left the table, quietly following Ping'er.

When they got outside, they saw Ping'er stopping Jiao Shun and leading him to a secluded corner.

Yuanyang followed up on tiptoe and hid behind the corner. As soon as he pricked up his ears, he heard Ping'er excitedly say: "Why did you agree to her for such a ridiculous thing?! What if..."

After that, it suddenly dropped several degrees.

Yuanyang thought she lowered her voice and subconsciously leaned forward, but was suddenly dragged out!

"Yeah~"

Yuanyang exclaimed, and when he regained his footing, he saw Jiao Shun and He'er standing side by side in front of him.

Yuanyang blushed, took half a step back, and whispered: "I, I, I..."

Before she could come up with her "I" explanation, Ping'er sighed and said to Jiao Shun: "Now that I've been listened to, there's nothing to hide - I can trust her."

Jiao Shun and Yuanyang were both stunned.

What you just said was clearly unclear, so why is there nothing to hide?

At this time, I heard Ping'er say: "I'm not looking for him because of your devotion to him, but..."

"Ping'er!"

Yuanyang stomped his feet shyly, hid his face and left, but was stopped by Ping'er with quick hands and eyes, and continued: "It's because the second grandma made a bet with him, as long as he can guarantee that the second grandma will return to his hometown within a year with the help of the maritime business."

For twice the amount of silver, just...just transfer me to him in an open and honest manner."

"What?!"

Yuanyang's eyes widened in shock, forgetting to be ashamed for a moment.

Who doesn’t know that Ping’er is the real aunt-to-be and a member of Master Lian’s house? Who would have thought that Wang Xifeng actually planned to ‘sell’ her to Jiao Shun?!

At this time, I heard Ping'er say to Jiao Shun: "That maritime business is extremely risky. If you really lose your money, are you afraid that you will lose everything to compensate her?! You can never sign this contract!"

Jiao Shun vaguely guessed Ping'er's thoughts, and immediately ignored the mandarin ducks, directly pulled Ping'er's catkins, and confessed affectionately: "Sister, don't you know my feelings? Not to mention tens of thousands of taels of silver.

, just tens of thousands taels of gold are worth nothing compared to my sister!"

As he said that, he took advantage of the situation and took Ping'er into his arms: "I have been by your side since I was a child, and I have always regarded you as my biological sister. If you live a happy life, I will never dare to think about anything else in my life.

, but... I will try my best to rescue you from this sea of ​​suffering like a widow!"

Yuanyang was completely dumbfounded.

Seeing Ping'er wrap his arms around Jiao Shun's waist with ease, didn't she know that the two of them had been having an affair?

In my heart, I first felt that the two of them were being rebellious, and Ping'er was a free-spirited person.

But when Jiao Shun said that Ping'er was living as a widow, he couldn't help but sympathize with Ping'er - Wang Xifeng was famous for being jealous. In the past, when the relationship between the couple was good, Ping'er was almost a decoration. Now the relationship between the two is tense.

, she would not allow Ping'er to get close to Jia Lian.

She had also heard Ping'er talk about the fact that Jia Lian was messing around with the boys and was confronted by Ping'er, which made her feel disgusted.

In contrast, Jiao Shun was willing to lose everything in exchange for Ping'er. Based on this true love alone, it doesn't seem surprising that the two would get together.

Can……

But what exactly is this...

Just as he was full of tangles, someone suddenly pushed him on his back. Yuanyang staggered and ran into Jiao Shun's arms.

But it turned out that while she was in a trance, Ping'er had already separated from Jiao Shun and quietly walked around behind her.

Ping'er covered her mouth and said with a smile: "I've made my matter clear, now it's your turn to talk to him - don't worry, I'll stay outside and won't eavesdrop on you."

When Yuanyang heard this, he suddenly thought of what Ping'er had never said clearly at the door of the flower hall: In fact, even if you don't marry, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can't follow your wishes.

For a moment, her heart felt as if a deer had hit her, her bones were numb and her muscles were numb. She wanted to break free from Jiao Shun's embrace, but she was too weak to use the strength.
Chapter completed!
