The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

  Chapter 218, the marriage is set, An Xiuer goes to Beijing

  Fan Mingyuan coughed unnaturally and said, "Can't sleep, come out for a walk, why haven't you rested yet?"

   Xiao Ruoshui touched her nose embarrassedly. She was already lying down and saw a figure standing outside the door. She couldn't open the door to see who it was?

  Fan Mingyuan also reacted and asked a silly question. He didn't know where to put his nervous hands and feet, and it took a long time to find his voice: "Then you should rest early, I'm going back to the room too."

   "Brother Yuan." Xiao Ruoshui suddenly called him, biting his lower lip and mustering up the courage to say, "If you don't want to, you can refuse."

In the end, what she told Shen Yijia before was her own guess. She asked Fan Mingyuan if she wanted to marry her. He just said yes, and there was nothing else. If she guessed wrong, Fan Mingyuan only did it to help her. Promise, how embarrassing that would be.

Fan Mingyuan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Xiao Ruoshui to misunderstand his acquiescence, and he didn't care about any problems between men and women, and took a step forward to hold her hand: "No, I don't want to. It's just that I never thought that there would be Today. I, I am very happy."

   Xiao Ruoshui was stunned. He didn't expect a person who usually looks calm to be so childish. Looking back at the hands they were holding, his cheeks instantly flushed, he pulled out his hand and hurriedly said, "I, I'm going to take a break, you should go back to your room as well."

   The door slammed shut, Fan Mingyuan looked at his hand for a long time and smirked.

  Because of the rush, they rushed all the way to the capital in less than a month.

   The General's Mansion, Xiao Ruoshui was summoned by the General's wife Zhou as soon as he stepped into the mansion and before he could return to his room to change his clothes. Fan Mingyuan handed the invitation to see General Xiao.

General Xiao's appearance in his early fifties is probably because of the military generals, and he doesn't look old. The most impressive thing is his slender black eyes with sharp black eyes, like an eagle in the dark night. When he sees Fan Mingyuan, he is hearty. He laughed: "Nephew, you haven't returned to Beijing for a long time."

   Fan Mingyuan was not the first time he saw General Xiao, but it was the first time he was so nervous.

   General Xiao gave a false help: "My nephew is out now, and he still calls me Uncle Xiao as usual. It is said that the little girl is thanks to you for taking care of her during this time."

  Fan Mingyuan pondered these words, and only said: "It should be."

   General Xiao glanced at him: "Sit."

   "Uncle Xie."

As soon as    took Fan Mingyuan to his seat, General Xiao said slowly again: "You haven't returned to Beijing for so many years, this time shouldn't be just to bring Ruoshui back, right?"

  Although I haven't met my daughter yet, General Xiao is not stupid. If it's just a gift, he can send a few people.

  Fan Mingyuan did not expect him to be so direct, so he simply went straight to the topic. He stood up, lifted his robe and knelt down: "Zixiu admires Ling Ai, and hopes that the general will be fulfilled."

General Xiao was stunned for a moment. He guessed many possibilities, but he did not guess this point. Xiao Ruoshui has always admired Song Jingchen. He knew that when the incident happened in Fuguo Gongfu, he ordered people to lock Xiao Ruoshui. What's going on.

   But let Ruo Shui marry Fan Mingyuan.

   Thinking that the situation in Beijing is still unclear, and the voice of the Central Court is getting louder, the eldest prince mentioned Ruoshui several times when he was talking to him recently.

  General Xiao weighed it over and over again in his heart, but didn't let him get up immediately, and said, "I watched you grow up, so you don't need to say anything. I just ask you one question."

   There is hope without a single rejection. Fan Mingyuan asked anxiously, "Uncle, please speak."

  General Xiao: "Within five years, you may plan to return to Beijing to seek an official."

  Fan Mingyuan was taken aback for a moment, if it was him before, he would definitely answer "yes". But now, he shook his head firmly: "No."

  If General Xiao was reluctant to let his daughter marry away, his words did not mean that he completely broke his marriage with Xiao Ruoshui.

   But he didn't want General Xiao to nod his head in satisfaction, and personally helped him up: "As long as you promise to treat Ruo Shui well in the future, you can ask the official media to come to propose marriage tomorrow. You can make a marriage appointment first."

  Women who have booked a marriage do not need to participate in the draft.

Fan Mingyuan's head suddenly knotted, he did not expect that General Xiao would agree so easily, he raised his head in disbelief, met General Xiao's half-smiling eyes, and hurriedly assured: "Zi Xiu will live up to Ruoshui in this life, if he goes against it, Destroyed."

   Xiao Ruoshui, who had finally escaped from her mother's own demon, walked to the door and happened to hear this sentence, her little face flushed, and she breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't need to say the words of her relatives.

  The Zhou family also wanted her daughter well, although she felt a little wronged by betrothing her daughter to a local official, but now she can't allow her to choose slowly.

  Especially when I told a few wives about the meaning before, and it was clearly said well, but in the end it was all over. She felt very uncomfortable, and she didn't need to think about it to know that those people were afraid that marrying their family would annoy the royal people.

   On the second day, Fan Mingyuan invited the official media to come to propose a marriage, and hurry up, it took only half a month, the marriage was settled.

  The news of the marriage between the daughter-in-law of the general's mansion and a little-known seventh-rank official spread out, and how many people broke the tea cup, let's not mention it.

   At the beginning of July, the will of the draft in the palace also came down. Originally, Fan Mingyuan wanted to stay in Beijing for two more days to accompany Xiao Ruoshui, but a secret conversation with General Xiao forced him to rush back to Anyang County immediately.

It was mid-August when the will of    and other drafts reached Xiagou Village.

   Drafts are usually made by people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Rites to select women with outstanding looks. What Shen Yijia did not expect was that An Xiuer was selected.

The only way for a girl from a family of officials in the court to marry is to avoid it. That is because under the emperor’s eyes, everyone knows that there are fourteen girls who have not yet left the cabinet. .

   But the girls from the commoners are different. As long as no one speaks, they will not force it, so An Xiuer can only do it voluntarily.

  Shen Yijia stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched An Xiuer board the carriage specially prepared for Xiu Numen with a small bag on her back. The moment she entered the carriage, she looked back as if aware of it, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she nodded to Shen Yijia.

  Shen Yijia was stunned for a moment, and rubbed her arms, this winter hasn't come yet, why is it suddenly cold.

   Shen Yijia didn't guess wrong, but it wasn't entirely true.

  As soon as the carriage left, Aunt Tian came to the door and cried: "What place do you think the palace is, can we ordinary people like us be able to go there? Why doesn't she listen?"

Aunt Tian held a handkerchief and cried so hard. From her mouth, Shen Yijia knew that the An family did not agree with An Xiu'er going. .
