Ye Qingning raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong? Does mother want anything from me?"
Dong Yan pursed her lips and smiled: "I don't know, I don't know. However, my wife has ordered me to go to Luomei Courtyard now." She said she didn't know, but Dong Yan's eyes were full of understanding smiles.
Ye Qinglan's heart suddenly moved, and she immediately guessed what was going on.
Ye Qingning had obviously guessed it. He didn't say anything, just nodded, and then followed Dong Yan out. After taking only two steps, he stopped, turned around and said, "Ten sisters, won't you come with me?"
?" Her heart was in a mess now, and she just wanted to find someone to accompany her.
Ye Qinglan said with a serious smile: "Auntie must have something important to talk to you alone. I'm afraid it won't be convenient for me to go." It would be too unwise for her to follow her. Mrs. Zheng doesn't think she is in the way.
Strange things.
Ye Qingning bit her lip and said nothing, just looking at Ye Qinglan.
She has always been arrogant and can't say anything to beg. This kind of expression is already the limit.
Ye Qinglan felt soft and had to raise her hands in surrender: "Okay, then I will accompany you there. However, when auntie talks to you, I have to avoid it."
There was a hint of smile in Ye Qingning's eyes and he hummed.
Ye Qinglan smiled apologetically at Cui Wan and said: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I must have made a mistake." She originally planned to accompany Cui Wan to take Sister Qiao to play in the garden, but now she has to accompany Ye Qingning to Luomeiyuan.
.
Cui Wan didn't mind at all, and responded with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I'll just take Sister Qiao. You should go to Luomei Courtyard as soon as possible, don't make your mother-in-law wait anxiously." Although Dong Yan's words were vague, but based on
With Cui Wan's intelligence, she can naturally guess the whole story.
Ye Qingning and Ye Qinglan hurried out of Qinfang Garden and walked towards Luomei Courtyard together. Along the way, Ye Qingning was obviously absent-minded, lowering his head and not knowing what he was thinking.
Ye Qinglan quietly tugged on Ye Qingning's sleeve: "Sixth sister, congratulations."
Ye Qingning rolled her eyes shyly and whispered, "I don't know if it's...that thing!" No matter how generous the girl was, she lost her usual composure when it came to important life events.
Ye Qinglan was happy to see it in her eyes. Ever since she met Zheng Junyan on Sister Qiao's first birthday, Ye Qingning's mood has calmed down a lot. When it comes to marriage, she is not as repulsive as before. It seems that she has completely accepted her future relationship with Zheng Junyan.
The fact of Jun Yan’s engagement.
Her intuition has always been very accurate. When Zheng came to Ye Qingning in such a hurry, she must be talking about this.
In fact, Ye Qingning also had this premonition. But when he thought about getting engaged, he felt panicked and his mind went blank.
Entering Luomei Courtyard, Mrs. Zheng, who had been waiting for a long time, greeted her with a smile.
Zheng always had a cold face on weekdays, but today she was radiant. The corners of her lips were raised high. When she saw Ye Qinglan coming with Ye Qingning, she was not angry at all. She greeted with a smile: "You came just in time, there is something new today."
It’s time to try the lychees.”
Ye Qinglan responded with a smile. Zheng was in such a good mood, which further confirmed her guess.
Lychees are big, round, fresh and delicious. They are very delicious. Ye Qingning usually loves lychees, but today he has lost his appetite. He held a lychee in his hand, but did not peel it open, just holding it in his hand.
Ye Qinglan coughed deliberately: "Sixth sister, don't you like lychees the most? Why don't you eat them today?"
Ye Qingning came back to her senses and rolled her eyes at her. He knew that she was full of worries, but he still had the time to tease her!
Ye Qinglan held back her laughter and peeled off a lychee and put it in her mouth. It was not easy to eat fresh lychees during this season. She took this opportunity to eat more to satisfy her cravings.
Mrs. Zheng peeled off a lychee herself and sent it to Ye Qingning with a smile: "She will soon be a married woman. From now on, she must be more dignified and steady."
Ye Qingning's hand trembled, and the white lychees suddenly fell on the hem of her skirt. How could she be in the mood to take care of this at the moment, and said in a calm voice: "Mother..."
After only saying two words, her pretty face turned red.
Zheng couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Your uncle and aunt specially invited the official media to propose marriage today, and they agreed that the engagement will be officially made in five days." The good thing she had thought about for so long finally came true, and Zheng couldn't bear to mention it in her heart.
It was so refreshing. Ye Qinglan didn't shy away from it at all and told the good news directly.
Ye Qingning was unable to react in time and was stunned on the spot.
Ye Qinglan said with a smile: "Congratulations to Sixth Sister on getting a good husband, and congratulations to Auntie on getting a good son-in-law."
Mrs. Zheng was in a very good mood. When she heard these words, she felt very happy. She smiled and joked with a rare smile: "Sister Lan, don't worry, it will be your turn in a year or two."
Ye Qinglan had no choice but to act coy to match Zheng's rare humor in a century. She silently complained in her heart that she was in a hurry. If she could, she didn't want to get married early.
Ye Qingning's heart was racing and he didn't speak for a long time.
Zheng also came from a young girl's background, so she could naturally understand Ye Qingning's complicated mood at the moment, and said with a smile: "Once the marriage is officially agreed, you should try not to leave the house and move around. Also, try not to meet Jun Yan."
This is the current marriage custom. A girl who is engaged is considered to have a husband. She should stay in her boudoir to get married and do some embroidery work when she has nothing to do. She should not leave the house and move around at will. An unmarried woman who is engaged should not leave the house at will.
Husband and wife cannot meet casually.
Ye Qingning nodded in agreement, her pretty face flushed, and her already bright appearance even more stunningly beautiful.
Mrs. Zheng felt very relieved when she saw her daughter's shy look. Gu Xinian's matter was finally over. In five days, after Ye Qingning and Zheng Junyan got engaged, this biggest worry could be put aside.
This good news spread quickly in the house. No matter what everyone thought in their hearts, they all looked happy on their faces. Mrs. Jiang specially called Ye Qingning over to give him a few words, but they were just "
Once you are engaged, you should settle down and wait for your marriage, and don’t leave the house at will anymore” and so on.
Ye Qingning's mood has calmed down a lot, and he listened respectfully to Jiang's instructions.
Ye Qingrou stood aside, quietly clenching the handkerchief tightly with her hands, and a trace of deep jealousy flashed across her eyes. Why is Ye Qingning so lucky to have such a marriage? In what way is she worse than Ye Qingning?
Although Mrs. Li felt unhappy in her heart, she didn't show it at all on her face and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, this is a great happy event! Congratulations to Sister Ning."
Madam Zheng was in such a good mood that she was too lazy to quarrel with Madam Li, so she smiled and nodded.
Mrs. Li smiled and praised Zheng Junyan again, and she praised Zheng Junyan like no other person in the world. Everyone loves to hear good things, and Mrs. Zheng was no exception. Her smile was much brighter than before.
Li changed the subject and said with a smile: "After Sister Ning's marriage has been decided, it will be Rou'er's turn. At that time, you have to ask your sister-in-law to take more trouble to find a good marriage for Rou'er."
Go, this is the purpose of love.
Mrs. Zheng was not a light-hearted person, so she responded with a smile: "Children's marriage also depends on fate. As long as Sister Rou's fate is met, she will naturally not worry about finding a good husband."
Mrs. Li smiled slightly and immediately responded: "What my sister-in-law said is true. If there is a chance in the future, please ask my sister-in-law to take Rou'er out to see the world when she is a guest." The Zheng family has a prominent family and many people come and go.
They are all from aristocratic families in the capital. It is naturally a good thing to have the opportunity to appear in front of the noble women.
In front of Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Zheng was not able to refute Mr. Li's favor, so she agreed with a faint smile.
The two sisters-in-law were chatting with Mr. Jiang, and Ye Qinglan naturally had no chance to interrupt, so she could only talk to Ye Qingning in a low voice. Ye Qingning had been dizzy all afternoon, and only now did she calm down.
She is about to get engaged! She is about to get engaged to Zheng Junyan!
There is a hint of sweetness in my heart, a little sourness, but more of a loss. I feel like I am in a dream state, and the voices around me are so unreal, like a dream...
Ye Qinglan talked for a long time but did not hear anything from Ye Qingning. She couldn't help laughing and joking: "Sixth sister, don't be impatient, the good times will not arrive until five days!"
Ye Qingning finally came to his senses and spat at her with a red face: "Stop chewing your tongue, when did I get anxious." She was more than flustered.
Ye Qinglan pursed her lips and smiled.
Ye Qingrou felt a little unhappy when she saw the two of them talking and laughing in low voices, invisibly excluding herself. She deliberately came over and said with a smile: "Sixth cousin, you are happily married, congratulations!"
Ye Qingning responded lightly: "Thank you, eighth cousin." She had not forgotten that Ye Qingrou had always been interested in Zheng Junyan. She used to have no right to be angry, but it is different now. If Ye Qingrou dared to show any signs of being strange,
She is sure to embarrass Ye Qingrou.
Fortunately, although Ye Qingrou felt sour in her heart, she didn't say anything outrageous. The small disturbance disappeared without a trace.
On this side, Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Zheng discussed the specific details of the engagement day. Mrs. Zheng had already made plans and stated everything she had thought about before. Mrs. Jiang listened very thoughtfully and nodded in agreement.
When the matter was almost discussed, Jiang suddenly thought of another thing: "By the way, is there any movement from the two maids next to Yuan Wei?"
Mrs. Zheng laughed: "It's only half a month, how can it be so fast?" It would take two months at the earliest before there would be any movement.
Only then did Jiang realize that he was too impatient, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Look at me, my memory is so bad as I get older."
Mrs. Li rushed to say: "My mother-in-law is in her prime, how can she be considered an old lady? To be offensive, she looks about the same age as me from a distance."
This is probably a compliment that no woman can refuse.
Jiang said a few words of blame, but his eyes were full of smiles.
Mrs. Zheng had long been accustomed to seeing Mr. Li's efforts to flatter people, and she felt a little excited, and quickly planned the engagement in five days. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation.
