When Shang Jie returned to the General's Estate, she recounted the conversation she had with the Eldest Princess and the Eldest Young Madam to Madame Jiang. Old Madame Jiang anxiously slapped her thigh. "Sister Yuan's mother is usually straightforward. This time, she's refusing to tell me the truth. It makes me anxious." Whichever family married one of them, they would all boast in front of their relatives and friends that their daughter-in-law had been born in a country, and that the person who had participated in the embroidery assembly was a person who had seen much of the world. Now that Sister Yuan had gotten second place, there would definitely be a lot of suitors. As Miss Yi was going to be an embroidery lady in the palace, no one had any intention of getting her. On the other hand, they heard that someone was going to discuss this with the Shi Family and that Shi Yue's stepmother was going to be very picky about this marriage proposal next month! "Since the prefecture of history is acting so, the Residence of He will naturally be even more lively."

"That's right!" Shang Jie sighed and said, "Madam Shang and Madam An Ping had long gone to the Grand Princess's Mansion to get some air. Fortunately, the Grand Princess was a bit biased towards me, so she didn't say anything in response to my question. Today, seeing Sister Yuan's mother, she said that this matter requires the consent of Old Madam He and Madam He.

Old Mistress Jiang sat upright on the chair and said, "Sister Yuan may be young, but her face is rosy. She can quietly sit and embroider, and when she walks, she jumps up and down. Furthermore, when he returned to his mother's temple, he had to match the words' Sister Yuan 'with' Hua An '. No matter what, he had to help Hua Ang settle the matter down, Sister Yuan. On the third of the next month, you woke up early and personally brought a matchmaker to the He manor to ask for a marriage.

Shang Jie nodded. In the capital, if his mother-in-law were to ask him to marry her in the future, it would mean that she would raise him as her daughter and he would have to put on makeup first. The so-called added makeup was when the husband bought a piece of jewelry and sent it to his parents' home, adding it to the dowry, letting the girl order the dowry in such a grand manner.

As for Mrs. He, after leaving Mrs. He's room, she went to her elder sister's room and sat down, saying, "We must take good care of Sister Yuan's marriage and not be hasty. He had listened to the old lady's words because she was interested in Jiege. Although Jie Ge'er was the eldest grandson of the concubine, but he had a stubborn personality and was afraid that Sister Yuan would suffer a loss in the future! Another was that although Brother Jie was raised in front of the Lady Shang, this time Madam Shang Shu was going to personally decide on Sister Yuan for him. She was afraid that once he passed the door, her mother would not like him. In the end, Brother Yang was still the best. Madam Anping happened to have a daughter by chance when she carried Sister Yuan to the temple to beg for the phoenix lamp. She was convinced that Sister Yuan's luck was good and would naturally love her in the future. Second, Madam Anping's aunt and daughter were currently the main wives of the Second Prince. The layers of relationships between them were strong, so it was natural that Brother Yang would have a bright future. In the future, when Miss Yuan passes by, she wouldn't have to worry about anything else. She could just be a young mistress. It's just that the old lady is very fond of the library, we can't refute her too much, we can't say too much in front of her. "In the next month, Shang Shu Manor and the Anping Marquis Manor will naturally come together to propose marriage. You should know who you have to agree to."

You said so much because you wanted me to stand on your side and agree to the proposal from the Anping manor! Hearing Mrs. He's words, the lady smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, before Sister Yuan and her family left for Northern Chengdu, Madam General's wife told me that she mentioned Sister Yuan's marriage to you that day. She wanted to propose marriage for Wa'an. She said that you had been a little loose at the time, but she stopped me in the temple by her own mother, and when I heard that my wife had understood her meaning, I didn't say anything more. I just said that I would wait for Sister Yuan and the others to come back from North Chengguo. After returning to the Grand Princess's Mansion, the general's wife mentioned this again. She insisted that you were the one who had given in and said that you would definitely stand by her side when she came to propose marriage next month. I didn't dare mention it in the old lady's room. Now that Madame has mentioned it, I dare not hide it any longer. "

Mrs. He was stunned for a moment, then remembered that before He Yuan left, she had accidentally called Shang Jie into her room to speak because she had heard the words "Sister Yuan accepted Jiang Hua-an's token or something". When Shang Jie mentioned that she was going to propose marriage for Jiang Hua-an, she did praise him. He didn't expect Shang Jie to bite down on this point and only said that he had given in at that time.

Noticing Mrs. He's blank stare, she said tactfully, "The Madam General is a straightforward person and is rather easy to get along with. "Even more rare is that Old Madame Jiang is an enlightened person, with Aunt Xin as the deputy general's wife. She treats Sister Yuan well, but if she passes through the gates of the General's Estate, the people up there will all be in love with her." Well, there was only his wife now, and she was no more awe-inspiring than the old lady, and no more persuasive. He wanted to use this opportunity to win his wife over to his side. The elder sister stood up to refill Mrs. He's cup of tea before sitting back down in her chair. Looking at Mrs. He's expression, she said in a relaxed manner, "Jiang Huanan is the eldest son of our family. He is also a steady man, so if Sister Yuan were to marry him, she would feel at ease. Although Brother Yang of the Marquis of Anping's house is not bad, he's still my youngest son. After Sister Yuan passes through the door, there will be several elder sister-in-law who will not only have to serve her in-laws, but also allow her elder sister-in-law to do the same. Furthermore, there will also be a charming younger sister-in-law below her.

No matter what, Mrs. He still cared about He Yuan's granddaughter. After listening to your sister's analysis, she had some reasons, and couldn't help but laugh, "Sister Yuan, you have always been very obedient. Everyone loves you, so if you marry her, you have to serve her. Think about it again. "

When the elder sister heard Madam He's praise for the Residence of An Ping, she stealthily heaved a sigh of relief. In the eyes of the brothers in the three families, Jiang Hua-An was superior in every aspect. As long as Madam He didn't help Marquis An Ping, this matter would be easier to handle. As for Madam Shang, after hearing that she had originally planned to seize the chief's position, only after hearing that it was her intention to enter the palace, did she dispel that thought and change it to Miss Yuan. She believed that she wasn't determined to win against Sister Yuan. As long as General and Madam fought more, she should be able to retreat.

While their wives were talking, Ning Ruoxue was still in the room, speaking to him. "Sister Yi is usually a simple and honest girl, but I didn't expect to be the champion of the North and South Embroidery Meeting. I was overjoyed." I found out from her that there was news about Lady Shen that the palace had been called in for the return of Miss Yi and the rest. Naturally, she was summoned to the palace to be an embroidery lady. This embroidery lady had always had a bright future. If the Crown Prince took a fancy to her, then …

"Stop!" When He Zizhong heard this, he frowned and waved his hand to stop Ning Ruoxue's words. He snorted, "The crown prince has already made his own princess consort, so even if he took a fancy to Sister Yi, he's still just a partial consort. What's there to be happy about? Miss Yi was a straightforward person. If she really entered the palace, she was afraid of causing trouble. If you want to do this for the sake of elder sister Yi's good, then don't let her enter the palace. "

"How many ladies would like to enter the palace and become embroidery female officials? You said that you don't want Miss Yi to enter the palace to become an embroidery female official!" Ning Ruoxue was stunned.

"Earlier, I heard from you that Sister Yi's needlework was not as good as Sister Yuan's. When we arrive at the Northern Cheng State, the champion will definitely be Sister Yuan, and Sister Yi will only be a foil. However, this time around, it was actually Sister Yi who won. Don't you find it strange? " He took a sip of his tea and said slowly, "It's not a good thing for Sister Yi to take the lead, it's not a good thing. The Crown Princess was jealous. If Sister Yi was in the Crown Prince's eyes, she wouldn't be able to leave the palace alive. If she does not enter the eyes of the crown prince and stayed until she left the palace to be matched by fifteen years old and did not choose a good family, she might end up like Madam Zhen Nan's eldest daughter. Do you have the heart to bear it? "

Ning Ruoxue's face turned red and white when she heard this. She pinched her hands together and said, "Only if you marry Miss Yi away can you avoid entering the palace." After a pause, he continued, "Originally, I heard that Mistress Shang Shu had taken a liking to my sister. She flattered me that she had a warm personality and said that Brother Jie was a bit stubborn, and wanted to find a girl with a good temper to match with. That day was rather interesting, but when he heard that Sui Xiong elder sister was going to become an embroidery lady in the palace, he stopped speaking. "Come to think of it, Jie Ge'er is the first grandson of the eldest son of the concubine. In the future, he will be able to speak up for himself in the mansion. If Sister Yi were to marry him, it would naturally be good."

"You can't talk about marriage this month. Next month, when you have an appointment with Madam Shang, just say that you don't want Miss Yi to enter the palace and see what she has to say." If she really did fall in love with a sister, she would naturally immediately have someone come to propose for her. In any case, the news in the palace only said so. We haven't received the imperial edict yet, so this matter isn't confirmed. "If Sister Yi has promised someone, the edict naturally will not come, and there is no need for you to enter the palace."

Ning Ruoxue thought about how He Yi could enter the palace and become an embroidery lady. She was initially filled with joy, but now she was struck by a blow from the Hao Zi and lost all her spirit. She said in a muffled voice, "In this case, getting a leading position is of no use. It would be better for Sister Yuan to get second place!"

As the couple spoke, He Yuan sneezed on the boat and muttered, "Who's missing me?"

"Of course it's brother An. Who else?" When Chen Zhu saw that everyone had eaten their dinner and went out for a walk on the deck, there was only He Yuan in the cabin. He joked, "Brother An is anxious to go to the He Mansion to propose marriage, he's going to tell the captain to hurry up!" They had been afraid that Sister Yi'er and the others would faint again, so they yelled and drove slowly. Now they suddenly started to move faster. They couldn't take it anymore and carried the ginger slices to the deck to get some fresh air. It was a hot day and the boat was moving fast. On the contrary, there was wind on the deck, but it was much better after a single blow. I'm afraid this cabin is full of the smell again. " As he said this, he saw He Yuan embroidering a purse. He went over and asked, "Could it be that they're here to send you back to Brother An?"

"What are you thinking of?" He Yuan's hand pinched Chen Zhu as he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't blame Brother An just for taking a bite or two, right? It was embroidered for my brother, and he is going to put some of it in the hot weather to avoid the smell of sweat. " As she spoke, she suddenly started laughing, to the point that Chen Zhu was baffled. "Why aren't you on the deck? I know, I'm just afraid of running into Brother Kuan, right? I can see that since your birth, you've avoided him. He even asked this morning if you were sick, why is there no one? Usually, you are the only one who likes to jump onto the deck, but now that I don't see you, not only Big Brother Kuan, even my big brother and the others ask about it! If you continue to hide and don't go out, everyone will probably make wild guesses. "

"You still dare to say that, you still dare to say that!" Chen Zhu drank a bit of wine on the day of her birth. She had a lot of courage, and was told by He Yuan that if Jiang Hua dares to propose to the Chen Estate, she would dare to agree to it. Who would have thought that He Yuan would follow the mama to the deck to pack up her things and meet Jiang Huagang, but he relayed Chen Zhu's words to her. The next day, Chen Zhu woke up and remembered his words. She was so embarrassed that she dared not meet Jiang Huagang again. If there was nothing to do, she would never come back to the deck. This time, he glared at He Yuan and said, "You usually keep your mouth shut. Why did you tell Brother Kuan so quickly that night? This will cause me to not dare to see him anymore. "

He Yuan covered his mouth and laughed, "I drank too that night. We were still together after what you said. I was so happy, but when I saw Brother Kuan, I couldn't help but say it. If it was a normal day, I wouldn't have spoken so fast. "

Chen Zhu was complaining about He Yuan when she heard someone knocking on the cabin door. She jumped down barefooted to open the door as she said to He Yuan, "It must be that mama who brought us tea!" As he spoke, he opened the door with a smile on his face. When he opened the door, he screamed and rushed back to the bed. He covered his face with the blanket and pretended to be dead.

"What's the matter?" He Yuan looked out and saw Jiang Huagang standing outside the cabin with a confused expression. He couldn't help but laugh and say, "Bro Kuan, come in quickly, what's the matter?"

"It's been a while since we've seen Miss Zhu'er, come over here to take a look!" Jiang Hukang had been persuaded by Jiang Hualian earlier on that Chen Zhu was a lively girl and wanted to get along with He Yuan. If she had married He Yuan, she would have gone to He Yuan and whispered to him. It was much better than marrying other girls. When He Yuan told him what Chen Zhu had said, he decided to go down. Who would have thought that after not seeing Chen Zhu for so many days, he would ask about it and always say that he was sleeping in the cabin. When he saw that the girls were all on the deck, he did not see Chen Zhu. He thought for a while and decided that he had to show some concern, so he strolled over and knocked on the cabin door. He hadn't expected that Chen Zhu, upon seeing him so frightened, would quickly withdraw, only staying under the blanket for a moment. He couldn't help but ask He Yuan, "What happened to her?"

"Big brother Kuan, she's fine. "But, but …" Seeing that Chen Zhu was still pretending to be dead, He Yuan forced himself to put down his sewing and stood up, "Big brother Kuan, you can ask her yourself! I will go out and scatter! "

"Don't go!" Although Chen Zhu was motionless, she pricked up her ears and listened for any activity outside. Upon hearing that He Yuan was going to leave, she pulled back the blanket and sat up, shouting, "I'm fine. I'm just sleepy and needs to lie down."

"Oh, then go to sleep!" Jiang Hua Kuan looked at Chen Zhu and noticed that her face was flushed, but she didn't seem to be sick. Jiang Hua Kuan was relieved and took a step back to leave the room.

"Wait!" Seeing that Jiang Hua Kuan was about to leave, Chen Zhu blurted out a question, "Is something the matter?"

"I do, I want you to embroider a scented bag for me!" Jiang Huagang also blurted out in envy. It wasn't just two days, but two days.

He Yuan moved back a few steps in the morning. When he saw them talking, he slipped to the side of the cabin door and quietly left. A slight smile appeared on his face. Hehe, Jiang Hua Kuan is 19 years old, Chen Zhu is 12 years old. If this pair was real, then there would be too much love! She was lost in her thoughts and almost bumped into someone. She lifted her head and saw that it was Shen Wishan's wish, so she could only hastily stand there and greet him.
