This time I went on a blind date, not to kill someone, so it was safer than last time.
When Xu Si learned about his father's decision, he had no objections and started packing.
Xu Yin didn't know her attitude and asked tentatively: "Sister, do you think it's okay?"
While Xu Si was instructing Xia Zhi to clean up, he took the time to reply to her: "What's good?"
"It's just a matter of going to Dongjiang. Are you willing?"
Xu Sixiao: "What don't I want to do? Isn't it just a blind date? I'm already busy with my marriage. Without this, I can still get a blind date, but I have to travel farther."
That's true.
Xu Yin felt relieved and joked with her deliberately: "Sister, I heard that Prince Dongjiang is beautiful, intelligent, knowledgeable and talented. Do you like this type?"
Xu Si rolled his eyes at her: "No matter whether you like it or not, children are not ashamed."
"Sister, you were not ashamed when you asked me before!" Xu Yin turned around and led an army.
Xu Si smiled. Also, when Yan Ling was here before, he asked her a lot.
"Sister, do you like it or not?" Xu Yin urged without giving up the question.
Xu thought for a moment and said, "You have to see someone before you know whether you like them, right? Now that you say that, I can't imagine it."
"In other words, you think it's good?"
Xu Sidao: "It's too early to say now. Even if I think it's good, it will still be liked by others! Don't make trouble here, don't you want to go together? Pack your luggage quickly, don't say it's too late at the end."
Xu Yin was pushed out of the door by her, grinning: "I know, keep it without delaying my sister's blind date!"
She turned around briskly and shouted as she went back to the house: "Xiaoman, pack your luggage!"
Xu Si couldn't help but smile.
This girl finally looks like the careless person she was before. Some time ago, she was rescuing people and seizing the city. There was a heavy burden on her shoulders every day, and she couldn't even smile.
Forget it, just go to Dongjiang. If you can’t go on a blind date, you can still treat it as a sightseeing trip!
…
The Xu family is preparing to send Xu Si to Dongjiang for a blind date, but in Tongyang, the Second Young Master Yan is about to cause a stir in the Duke of Zhao.
He had a quarrel with his father before leaving home, so he told his mother about it first.
Mrs. Zhaoguo loved her children, and Yan Ling kept saying good things. When her mother thought about it, the two of them had matching family backgrounds, were about the same age, and had compatible temperaments. Where could such a good marriage be found? She agreed to him and said it in front of her father.
explain.
At night, after the couple had washed up, Duke Zhao was leaning on the couch and reading a book. His wife saw that he was in a good mood, so she mentioned the matter.
Duke Zhao Guo replied while reading: "I have asked Acheng about this, and I need to think about it again."
"What should we consider?" Mrs. Zhaoguo asked, "Is there something wrong with the Xu family?"
Duke Zhao shook his head: "There's nothing wrong with the Xu family, but Miss Xu San is a little..." He couldn't think of a description for the moment.
Mrs. Zhao Guogong was surprised: "I heard from Aling that Miss Xu San is brave and resourceful, and she is very compatible with him. Is it possible that he was deceived?"
"That's not true." Duke Zhao Guo put down the book, thought for a while, and slowly explained the situation of the Xu family. Finally, he said: "...Miss Xu San is indeed brave and resourceful, but she is a woman.
After all, it’s a little embarrassing to do what men do when you’re not in good health.”
After hearing this, Mrs. Zhao Guoguo chuckled: "I think it's not her who's embarrassed, it's you."
"lady……"
Mrs. Zhao Guogong asked: "You think it's good to marry Miss Xu, isn't it just because she is the eldest daughter, and marrying her means you have Nanyuan?"
Duke Zhao did not refute.
She added: "But now it is obvious that Governor Xu prefers his second daughter to inherit the family business. Why does he think that Miss Xu San can't do it?"
Duke Zhao was a little sarcastic: "That's not what I said. After all, there is order between elders and younger ones..."
"Come on!" Mrs. Zhao Guogong mocked, "In the final analysis, it's not that Miss Xu San is too strong and makes you feel uncomfortable. It's also up to you to marry the Xu family, marry Miss Xu and come to Nanyuan.
, and marrying Miss Xu San is her dowry, and you can’t interfere with it."
Being exposed mercilessly, Duke Zhao looked embarrassed: "Ayi..."
Mrs. Zhao Guogong said seriously again: "I don't understand your important matters, but don't you think this matter is too taken for granted?"
"What?"
"Let me ask you, how old is this Governor Xu? How is his health?"
Duke Zhao was startled for a moment, then slowly replied: "He will be in his forties and is a few years younger than me. Except for being poisoned after falling off a horse a while ago, I haven't heard of any injuries."
He already understood what his wife wanted to say, so he listened to her: "You are only forty years old and in good health. If nothing unexpected happens, you can be in power for at least twenty years. Whether you marry Miss Xu or Miss Xu San, it is your turn to make plans."
Does it count as a family fortune? He is determined to raise his daughter, just to prevent this accident. So, even if Aling marries Miss Xu, Nanyuan will not be in your hands."
Duke Zhao touched his beard and was speechless.
"But..." He thought for a while, then opened his mouth but felt unable to say it.
Mrs. Zhao Guogong sneered: "But what but, after all, I still think that Miss Xu San is too powerful and can't be rounded and flattened by you, right? Zhao Guogong is so majestic in the day, how can he bully the weak and fear the strong?"
After saying this, Duke Zhao Guo looked a little embarrassed: "What you said..."
Mrs. Zhao Guogong sighed, and showed a little worry: "It's no wonder you, the Yan family tree is very popular. In order to protect yourself these years, you can only carefully weigh it. Even A Cheng, who was led astray by you, was given to me at the beginning.
When he proposed a marriage, he obviously preferred the girl from the Yan family, but he compromised for the sake of the power of the Xie family."
Duke Zhao Guo didn't expect her to say these words. He felt warm at first and then felt ashamed: "Ayi..."
Mrs. Zhao Guogong looked at her husband with a faint look: "Do you know how sad I felt when he said he wanted to choose a girl from the Xie family? Young people should like whoever they want. If they are sincere, they will get what they want.
Only in this way can you have no regrets in your life and grow old together. How sad it must be to have to compromise with the world when you clearly have your heart. Seeing him like that reminds me of you back then..."
"Ayi!" Duke Zhao called out, interrupting her.
Mrs. Zhao Guogong stopped talking and smiled: "That's all, you should be unhappy talking about this."
Duke Zhao Guo showed a guilty look and said softly: "That's not what I meant, it's just that it's been so long..."
"I know." Mrs. Zhao Guogong looked indifferent, "The past is in the past, don't mention it. It's A Cheng's place. You have to be considerate. I don't want him to suffer the pain you have suffered."
"Yes." Zhao Guogong looked gentle, "Thank you very much for these years."
