In the afternoon, when Shen Ming came back from his post, Shen Wan had him called to Qiushi courtyard.

"That's what happened. What do you think?" Shen Wan told Shen Ming about the arrival of Princess Ren and Princess Liufang.

Shen Ming couldn't believe it. He didn't expect that Princess Liufang would like him. What's more, Princess Ren would take the initiative to remind them.

"I'm afraid I'm not worthy of the princess now." He didn't want to be told that he wanted to go up to the benevolent palace, let alone that the princess had married a low man.

"What are you going to do? You are still young, even if you want to be promoted, Princess Liufang is already sixteen. How long do you want her to wait? How long can she wait for you Shen Wan looked at him and asked. If he cares about the East and the west, he will only miss Princess Liufang.

Shen Ming: "I..."

Shen Wan said: "my mother and I mean that if you are also interested in the princess, we will first find someone to propose a marriage, and then we will get married in a year or two. You are the number one scholar. If Princess Ren thinks you have no future, she will not take the initiative to remind us. My sister can be sure that if you don't act at this time, the fate between you and Princess Liufang will be gone. "

"In fact, my sister thinks that as long as you and the princess are in love, you should not worry too much, and don't mind what others say. When you get promoted in the future, they will shut up. It's really not easy to meet someone you like, and she likes you, and both parents are satisfied

Shen Ming thought for a moment that he didn't want to miss Princess Liufang. As his sister said, if he didn't act at this time, the relationship between him and Princess Liufang would be gone. Prince Ren's house has taken the initiative to remind him. What can he be hesitant about?

"I listen to my sister."

Hearing this, Shen Wan and her mother, Li Shi, look at each other and smile.

Shen Wan didn't make a statement. He just told Song Heng that the marriage was very good.

The next day, Shen Wan asked housekeeper Yun to find a matchmaker and gave him 50 Liang silver. He chose a good day and asked the matchmaker to propose marriage to Prince Renqin.

On the 25th of August, the matchmaker went to Prince Ren's house to propose marriage. Although Prince Ren felt that Shen Ming's match for his daughter was still lower, he could not hold up Princess Ren's persuasion. Knowing that his daughter liked Shen Ming, he nodded and agreed.

After receiving the good news from the matchmaker, Shen Wan asked Huier to order the kitchen to prepare some good dishes in the evening and announced the happy event to everyone.

"Congratulations, uncle." Song Ziling immediately congratulated his uncle.

Liu also said with a smile: "Congratulations, Ming boy, and congratulations from your parents. If you can marry a princess as a daughter-in-law, Princess Liufang is a first-class and first-class girl! You Shen family are blessed

She didn't expect that Shen Ming could marry a princess's daughter-in-law. However, he was a talented man, and he was worthy of a princess. The No.1 actors in the opera are all emperor in law!

"Thank you," Li said with a smile.

Song Heng patted Shen Ming on the shoulder and said, "tomorrow is the right time to rest. My brother-in-law will accompany you to hunt two wild geese in the mountains."

"Well, thank you, brother-in-law." Shen Ming smiles and nods.

The ancients used to make betrothal with loyal wild geese as a keepsake.

"No, uncle. You can't talk to Princess Liufang." Song Ziyu cried.

"Why not?" Shen Wan frowned at her and asked.

People all over the table looked at her with a puzzled face.

"No way, no way." Song Ziyu stamped his feet and said. If Princess Liufang married her uncle, what would she and the prince do?

Shen Wan changed his face, looked at Song Ziyu and said, "who's your uncle's talk with? Where can it be your turn to say no?"

Liu also said: "your mother said right, your uncle's marriage can't be your turn to interrupt."

Song Ziyu looked at Shen Ming and said, "uncle, tell me about yourself. You are a six grade sesame official, worthy of being the princess Liufang?"

Shen Ming droops his eyes and looks gloomy. His niece and daughter said that he was not worthy of the princess. How could he feel good in his heart? But she was right.

"Song Ziyu!" Before Shen Wan gets angry, Song Heng pats the table first.

Song Ziyu was so frightened that he shrank his neck.

Song Heng pointed to her and said angrily, "do you say so about your uncle? Your uncle is the best man in the future. How can he not be worthy of the princess? The princess and your uncle love each other too. Don't talk nonsense

Song Ziling looked at his uncle and said, "uncle, you and Princess Liufang are made in heaven. They are perfect. My sister has a bad brain. Don't listen to her."

"Who do you think has a bad brain?" Song Ziyu glared at Song Ziling.

Song Ziling looked around, spread out his hands and said, "in addition to you, there is a second person whose brain is not good?"

He felt that his sister had a problem with her brain. She said she couldn't have such a good marriage between her uncle and Princess Liufang. What's more, it's her turn to interrupt the elder's marriage? Did she read all her books in the dog's stomach?

"Song Ziling, you are too much." Song Ziyu's teeth itched with anger.Song Ziling shrugged his shoulders and said, "if you go too far, you will not go too far."

Shen Wan said in a sharp voice, "stop fighting! Eat and go out if you don't eat. "

Song Ziyu patted the table, stood up, glared at Song Ziling fiercely, covered his face and ran out.

Shen Wan took a deep breath and looked at the people: "OK, don't worry about her. Have a meal."

Song Ziyu made such a fuss, the original atmosphere of joy was diluted, and all the people were eating without knowing what to eat.

After dinner, Shen Wan went to the Cuiyu Pavilion, but song Ziyu did not see her with the door closed. She was so tired that she left and did not care about her.

At the end of the night, Shen Wan lay on the couch, facing Song Heng, and asked, "why do you say Ziyu is her? She has always liked and adored Princess Liufang Princess Liufang should be happy to be her aunt, isn't she?

Song Heng said: "I don't know what the girl is thinking? However, she is too ignorant, too unruly It's also that she is now a big girl. She should have a face, or he will punish her to kneel in the ancestral hall.

Shen Wan agreed and nodded. If only she had a son Ling who was half obedient and sensible.

However, there should also be reasons for song Ziyu's opposition. After dinner, she wanted to talk to her and ask her well, but the girl didn't even open the door. For song Ziyu, she really did not know how to teach. Song Ziyu is old and has formed his own temperament. She was not intimate with her at first. If her attitude was a little more severe, song Ziyu would feel that he was not good to her, and maybe he would have resentment.

Song Heng saw her wringing her eyebrows, he stretched out his index finger and kneaded her eyebrows and said, "well, don't think about it. It's late. Go to bed!"

Shen Wan nodded, pillow Song Heng's arm, moved to his arms, found a comfortable position, closed his eyes.

Song Heng smiles, looking at Shen Wan's eyes full of love. He put out the light, put his arm around her shoulder and closed his eyes.

After breakfast the next day, Song Heng and Shen Ming took some soldiers out of the city to hunt wild geese in the mountains.

The matchmaker asked Princess Liufang's Geng tie to join Shen Ming's birthday.

After the matchmaker finished combining the eight characters, she laughed at Shen Wan and Li and said, "congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to Mrs. song. Shen Zhuangyuan and Princess Liufang have a special combination of the eight characters. They are made by nature, and the eight characters are flourishing each other."

"That's good," Li said with a smile

Shen Wan winks at Huier. Huier understands and takes out 20 liang of silver and gives it to the matchmaker.

"This silver, my aunt, will take it to tea."

"Oh, thank you, thank you." The matchmaker accepted the money and burst into Shen Wan and Li's mouth and said, "I'll send Shen Zhuangyuan's Geng tie to Prince Ren's house. You, old lady and Mrs. song, are ready to prepare the betrothal keepsake. Let me know. I'll have a good day and go to Ren Wang's house to exchange the betrothal keepsake."

She was also lucky to be the matchmaker between Shen Zhuangyuan and Princess Liufang. She only went back and forth twice, and she received several hundred taels of silver. What's more, her name will surely be spread out after she has made this matchmaker, and all the high-ranking officials and dignitaries have to find her as matchmaker?

"Good." Li Shi and Shen Wan nodded and asked the maid to send the matchmaker out.

After the matchmaker left, Li lifted up his sleeve, looked at the silver bracelet on her hand and said, "this bracelet was handed down to me by your grandmother. She said that the bracelet was handed down by her ancestors and only passed on to her daughter-in-law. If you use this as a token of engagement, I'm afraid it's too shabby. "

Shen Wan looked down. Although the bracelet was of great significance, it was a bit shabby to be a betrothal keepsake.

Shen Wan said with a smile: "Niang, it seems that in your generation, the things handed down by our family to our daughter-in-law should change."

Li nodded his head and said, "it's time to change."

"Let's go out and have a look tomorrow. We'll choose a betrothal token for your future daughter-in-law."

"Good."

As soon as the Geng tie was changed, it became known that Princess Liufang was discussing marriage with Shen Ming. There are blessings, some sour words, some lost and beat their chest and feet.

Those who said sour words were those who fell in love with Princess Liufang and Shen Ming but did not get married. Those who lost and beat their chests and feet were their admirers.
