Xu Qinghuan looked out through the small window and saw Song Chengxuan, wearing a sapphire blue straight suit, walking this way along the bluestone road. He had broad shoulders, a tall and tall figure, and clear eyes.
The solemnity below was contained in those ink-like brows and eyes.
His expression was indifferent, with a coldness and imposing majesty that could not be seen from thousands of miles away. Ordinary people would not dare to look directly at him if they saw him.
He became the calm and intimidating Song Hou who stood in front of others again.
Xu Qinghuan wanted to spurn him. The hand stretched out from under the quilt just now seemed not to be his. If she hadn't experienced it personally, she would probably not believe the two faces in front of him and behind him.
An Yihou obviously liked this trick, so he stood up and went out to greet him.
Different from the last time they met in the military tent, Song Chengxuan came to the house this time for the Song family's banquet tomorrow to discuss marriage. When he saw Anyihou coming out, he bowed and saluted Anyihou.
Marquis An Yi couldn't help but be stunned. Although he knew in his heart that after the marriage between the two families was finalized, the prince of Wei would be his son-in-law, but because of that incident, he never thought that the prince would treat him as his father-in-law.
This situation made An Yihou think of Prince Wei. When the two families made the marriage contract, they only wanted to wait until the children grew up and then arrange a lively wedding for them. Now the marriage is about to be brought up, but
But the King of Wei and his wife are no longer here.
Marquis An Yi couldn't help but feel sad, and immediately said: "No need to be so polite, let's go to the study to talk!"
Song Chengxuan stood up and followed An Yihou forward.
Although the small courtyard of the Xu family is not big and does not have expensive decorations, it exudes a certain tranquility and elegance. The green bamboos outside the study window sway gently in the wind, and the birds bought by Xu Qingan hang on the porch.
The child barks twice from time to time, as if it is afraid that others will forget its existence.
Before Song Chengxuan sat down and spoke, Marquis An Yi had already ordered the steward: "Take that bird away."
As if it could understand human speech, the bird immediately started making a fuss, fluttering its wings and flying around, making the cage sway back and forth.
"Master Hou, there is no need to be so troublesome." Song Chengxuan said.
An Yihou looked embarrassed. Now he suspected that Xu Qing'an had placed the birdcage here intentionally. This unscrupulous man had caused trouble for him. He didn't know where he had gone now. He disappeared at the critical moment.
"Tomorrow, the elders of the Song family will propose marriage to the Marquis," Song Chengxuan looked at Marquis Anyi, "I hope the Marquis will agree."
An Yihou nodded: "I have prepared Qing Huan's Geng Tie and will bring it with me."
The purpose of Song Chengxuan's trip has been achieved: "I will come to pick up the Marquis and the eldest lady." After saying this, he was ready to get up and leave.
"Master Song has just returned in triumph. Should we reward the soldiers tonight?" Marquis An Yi was about to send Song Chengxuan out.
Song Chengxuan stopped and said, "Commander Xue and I have already appeased the officers and men in the camp. Today's reward banquet will be hosted by the Commander-in-Chief."
This did not make An Yihou expect that he was also a military commander, and he knew in his heart that after returning from a victorious battle, this moment was the best opportunity to win over the soldiers, unless there was something more important to do.
Could it be that Song Chengxuan missed the reward just to meet him and explain the marriage proposal.
"Master Song, haven't you eaten yet?" An Yihou blurted out.
Song Chengxuan's eyes were dark and deep, making it difficult to tell whether he was happy or angry.
An Yihou immediately said: "Why don't we stay and let Qing Huan order the kitchen to prepare some food, and we can take care of Mr. Song."
An Yihou felt a little regretful after saying this. With the relationship between their two families, Song Chengxuan would definitely not stay. Coming here tonight was beyond his expectation...
An Yihou had just thought about this when he saw Song Chengxuan nodded slightly.
Marquis An Yi almost didn't react. Did Song Chengxuan agree? He was immediately overjoyed and immediately looked at the side room next to the main room: "Let the big kitchen prepare some food and send it to the study."
When Xu Qinghuan saw the look his father was looking at, he knew that his father must be so happy now that he had forgotten to cover up. Couldn't his father's look like this be tantamount to telling Song Chengxuan that she was secretly hiding in the side room.
Xu Qinghuan couldn't help but sigh, and simply walked out of the main room, went up to salute An Yihou and Song Chengxuan, and then looked at An Yihou: "My daughter will go make preparations now."
After Xu Qinghuan finished speaking, he looked at Song Chengxuan. The man stood there motionless, with an indifferent expression on his handsome face. When their eyes met, the corners of his lips seemed to be slightly raised, but in the blink of an eye they returned to normal.
That was clearly an intriguing smile.
He seemed to have spoken to his father, and the backs of his hands in his sleeves were exposed.
Xu Qinghuan didn't know if the mark he bitten was still there. What was he hinting to her by acting like nothing happened?
Xu Qinghuan felt as if he was in that airtight thin quilt again.
Marquis Anyi invited Song Chengxuan to his study.
Xu Qinghuan turned around and walked towards the big kitchen. Feng Chu came up and said, "Miss, what do you want the big kitchen to prepare?"
As soon as Feng Chu finished speaking, she looked into Xu Qinghuan's eyes. Feng Chu's heart couldn't help but sink. There was clearly a murderous look in the eldest lady's eyes.
Could it be...
Miss.
"Miss, we have croton, rat poison, and gutwort at home..."
Feng Chu is worried about what the lady is worried about.
"Do you want to, the medicine will overturn him."
Xu Qinghuan stopped and suddenly felt that Feng Chu had become smarter.
…
Xu Qing'an has been standing guard at the door of Xu's house. He followed Song Chengxuan all the way back home. When he saw the door, he refused to go in, so he would not give Song Chengxuan the face.
It can also be considered as a warning to him.
Without him, the Xu family would be like losing half of their country, and Song Chengxuan would definitely be treated coldly.
Xu Qing'an thought and crossed his arms tightly. The weather seemed to be a bit cooler tonight, and the gusts of wind made him shiver a little. He gritted his teeth and persisted.
As a man, he was unyielding and mighty. He seemed to have foreseen that amidst the bursts of birdsong, his father and Song Chengxuan could not reach a consensus, and the two fought fiercely, and they were inseparable.
Yes, something big must have happened, otherwise Meng Lingyun would never come back.
Wait a moment.
They were coming to him soon.
Xu Qing'an closed his eyes, and suddenly a burst of aroma came from his nose, like the smell of stir-fried pork, and the cook's favorite hoof.
Xu Qingan couldn't help but swallow.
"Your Majesty," Meng Lingyun finally came over, "please go back, the food is being cooked in the big kitchen."
"What?" Xu Qing'an looked surprised, "Who did you do it for?"
"Master Song." Meng Lingyun replied simply.
"Bah!" Xu Qing'an couldn't bear it anymore. He wanted to go back and spit in the dish that Song Chengxuan was eating, so that he could taste the power. He even dared to eat and drink in his home.
Meng Lingyun blinked: "I heard Feng Chu talking about croton or heartbroken grass..."
Xu Qing'an's eyes lit up, and he knew the result would be like this: "Let's go back to Croton. You go back and say...one or two Croton is enough."
He squatted here, waiting for Song to have an attack after eating croton. At that time, he would go out and throw Song to the ground.
Xu Qing'an thought about it and squatted down and shrank into the corner: "Don't tell anyone I'm here."
