Xiao Yanlin: "Everything is based on their wishes."
Father Lu and Mother Lu came back very quickly. After Xiao Yanlin said his intentions, they both felt a little dizzy. At the beginning, they never thought that the young man their daughter picked up was actually the second son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, and now they have come to propose marriage.
The Lu family's parents naturally also have their worries. The Lu family are ordinary civilians. Besides, this is the eldest son of Marquis Zhenyuan, can her daughter be a noble lady?
Xiao Yanlin pursed his lips: "Although I am the eldest son, my father's title cannot be inherited by me. I have a younger brother under me, who is my father's favorite heir."
"No, I won't stay at the border for so many years. If Miss Lu marries me, I'm also worried that I will wrong her."
Seeing the different expressions on the faces of the Lu family, Xiao Yanlin did not shy away: "I made a lot of mistakes in the past, and these are my own faults. But my parents and grandmother are excellent people, so the second elder doesn't have to worry."
Father Lu sighed: "If you say that, I'm even more worried. Originally, I planned to go to the capital in the next few days. Since you sincerely ask for marriage, you always want both parents to meet."
Lu Ying: "Father, why are you going to the capital? Don't tell us. The last time I went to the capital was when I was six years old."
Mother Lu: "Didn't your father make up his mind?"
Xiao Yanlin couldn't be happier: "It couldn't be better, my parents are very good people, and the second old man will know when they see them."
"The capital is in front of us, and we have been working hard these days. We will find an inn to rest tonight and enter the city early tomorrow."
Lu Ying hammered his waist: "I really want to rest, I'm so tired after all this day."
After settling down the second old man of the Lu family, Xiao Yanlin and Du Jie whispered a few words, and Du Jie turned and left the inn.
Lu Ying: "What are you doing? It's mysterious."
Xiao Yanlin: "Let Uncle Jie send a letter to the mansion, we are all in the capital, we must let them know."
Lu Ying: "No need? An official as big as your father."
Xiao Yanlin: "This is necessary. You are the girl I really want to marry. I don't want you and your parents to be despised and treated with contempt."
The two sat on the steps and talked for a long time. Seeing the bright moon hanging high, Xiao Yanlin helped Lu Ying: "I'll take you back to your room. Have a good rest tonight, ugly daughter-in-law always wants to see her in-laws."
Lu Ying was not happy: "Who is ugly? You are ugly!"
Xiao Yanlin laughed: "Okay, I'm ugly! Go back quickly, I'll sit here for a while."
I heard that the Lu family had already arrived in the capital. The next morning, everyone in the Xiao family, except Lu Yanxin, arrived at the inn. From catkins to the youngest Xiao Yanming.
Even Yufu followed, he was simply pulled by Xiao Jingwan. In her words, this is to see the future sister-in-law, and such a scene cannot be missed.
It's the most suitable for Yang's to come forward. Who can make her say the best: "This is Miss Lu? She is graceful, and she is full of refreshing energy. Brother Ling'er has such a good eye."
"I'm the aunt in the next room of Brother Lin. Brother Lin's mother is pregnant, so it's not suitable for you to travel long distances. Don't take offense to the two of you."
The Lu family's parents were busy and humble, and Lord Xiao was here, and he already paid great attention to them. Looking at the catkins who held Lu Ying back, the hearts of the two were completely relieved.
From this point of view, the Xiao family really has no opinion of the family, and they have a very good attitude towards them, and they are not condescending at all.
Yang shrugged: "The carriage is ready, and the few of you have worked hard for the long journey. The house has already prepared a wing. No matter how good the inn is, it is not as comfortable as home."
Liu Xu smiled and looked at Yang's and the Lu family's parents. She didn't need to say anything at this time. She could come over to show her attitude of importance.
Xiao Jingwan and Lu Ying supported the catkins from left to right, "Grandmother, since you have Sister Lu Ying, you won't be able to see me anymore. Am I still your most beloved granddaughter?"
Liu Xu smiled: "It all hurts, Yufu is still here, you're just acting like a spoiled child, don't let Yufu see the joke."
Yufu hurriedly replied: "No, it's good lately."
Seeing Xiao Jingwan's complacent appearance, Liu Xu shook her head helplessly: "We are the only two girls in the house, she and Jingzhu. Jingzhu got married a few years ago, and her marriage was already decided, it's Yufu, this child is a bit temperamental. It's naughty, you'll understand after getting along for a long time."
Lu Ying smiled: "Sister Wan Wan has a very good temperament."
Xiao Jingzhu was delighted: "Look, my sister-in-law said the same."
Liu Xu: "You can call me privately. You can call me whatever you want to be married. Don't ruin Yingying's reputation at this moment."
Several people laughed and walked out of the inn door, but a carriage suddenly stopped at the inn door. After seeing the person who got down from the carriage, Liu Xu's brows sank.
"Ning Miao? Why is she here?"
Jiang Chan: "The brothers of the Ning family are all in the capital. It is estimated that Ning Miao's trip to Beijing this time is also for the purpose of marriage."
Liu Xu's pause was only for a moment. After seeing Ning Miao, she turned slightly to look at Xiao Yanlin at the back. Xiao Yanlin naturally saw Liu Xu's eyes, his expression was very calm, it seemed that Ning Miao's appearance did not affect him in the slightest.
After helping Liu Xu and Lu Ying to get into the carriage, Xiao Yanlin got on the horse silently, and soon everyone in the Xiao family left the inn.
Ning Miao looked at the direction in which Xiao Yanlin was going: "Who is that?"
The shop assistant who was waiting on the side smiled and said, "It's the mansion of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, and that is Xiao Yanlin, the eldest son of Marquis Zhenyuan."
"Xiao Yanlin? How could he be here?" Ning Miao's heart was beating fast. It was the first time she saw such a person, and it was the first time she could touch her heartstrings so much.
The shopkeeper: "We heard a few words about it. I heard that the second son is going to get married. The third young lady just called the girl's sister-in-law. If this is not the intention of the two families, can you call it that?"
"Get married?" Ning Miao couldn't accept it. She was just excited. Is the other party going to get married?
A mother beside her supported her: "Girl, let's go up first, and talk about it when the buddies come."
She also thinks Xiao Yanlin is good, but if the other party is already getting married, it is best not to get involved. Besides, the Ning family was robbed back then, because the Zhenyuan Houfu and the Pingyang Houfu jointly did it.
Although the Ning family is not innocent, it is best to avoid contact with the Xiao family. Now that the girl has actually taken a fancy to the eldest son of the Hou family in Zhenyuan, can they be happy?
Back at the Hou Mansion, after settling down the three Lu family, Liu Xu glanced at Xiao Yanlin: "Come with me."
Xiao Yanlin followed silently, Xiao Jinting thought about it, but followed.
In the main house, Liu Xu's face was very serious: "You saw Ning Miao today, what do you think?"
