auspicious time has come

Chapter 218
Xiao Mu's special status made it too eye-catching to attract people to the front hall, so the tea place was chosen to be in Ji Nanxian's study.

The boy who brought the tea was Ji Nanxian's confidant, and after serving the tea, he retreated outside to guard.

When picking up the teacup, Heng Yu casually asked his elder brother: "Who invited brother out to drink and discuss Fu today?"

"I was going to talk to you." Ji Nanxian said with a smile, "It's that Jin Jialiulang."

Xiao Mu's fingers holding the teacup tightened suddenly.

"Liulang of the Jin family?" Heng Yu was a little surprised: "In the past...brother didn't seem to have any contact with him, why did he suddenly invite brother to drink?"

"I also thought it was a bit unusual at first..." Ji Nanxian took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I just found out after meeting that this gentleman of the Jin family found an old painting by A Weng and wanted to entrust me with it." To judge the authenticity. Besides, I am currently working in the Eastern Palace, and as the younger brother of the Crown Princess, it is common sense for him to get acquainted, but..."

"It's just what?" Looking at his elder brother who was full of sarcasm in his eyebrows and eyes, and then glanced at the person listening on the other side from the corner of his eye, Heng Yu had a vague premonition that something was wrong.

Ji Nanxian said with a smile: "It's just that Mr. Jin's family has repeatedly mentioned my girl from Ji's family, Heng Yu, in the conversation...it seems a little drunk."

Heng Yu laughed dryly: "Brother, I'm afraid I'm overthinking."

"If it was said that brother was guessing out of thin air last time, it is absolutely impossible to be superstitious this time!" Ji Nanxian smiled on his face, with a firm expression on his face: "Brother is not that foolish and blind at his age. How can you not even understand this?"

Heng Yu laughed again.

Seriously... isn't it?

They were clearly sitting in front of him...

"I heard from Mr. Jin's family that you just met yesterday in the western suburbs. He praised you a lot in his words, and he didn't make any presumptuous remarks, but it was obviously unusual." Ji Nanxian wanted to prove his point of view. Forgot to pull Xiao Mu: "I heard that Xiao Jieshi was also there yesterday, I don't know what can be seen?"

To him, Xiao Jie is already a heart-to-heart ally, and he takes care of Ah Heng in every possible way, like an elder. It is really appropriate for him to ask the other party's opinion on such matters——

Xiao Mu glanced at Hengyu, and replied: "There is something unusual in your demeanor."

"..." Heng Yu looked at him inexplicably.

What on earth is this person doing here today? How can he join hands with brother to run on her?
"Let me just say it! How can I be superstitious!" Ji Nanxian was very satisfied with the reaction of his allies, and continued with a smile: "Speaking of which, this gentleman of the Jin family only heard of his reputation before, but now he sees him like this , Indeed, it can be seen that there are many things that are superior to others, such as speech, manners, appearance and talent, all of which are superior, and what is even more rare is that he is humble and polite, without the slightest arrogance and impetuosity."

This time of praise, he was short of writing the words "just suitable to be my sister-in-law" on his face.

Hearing a lot, Hengyu has changed from being anxious at first to being calm.

As for who couldn't sit still, she didn't say.

"Emissary Xiao Jie also met Mr. Jin's family yesterday, so I don't know how he treats him?" Ji Nanxian was obsessed with wanting to pull Xiao Mu together to make suggestions for his sister's marriage, and weighed each other.

"He is a rare young talent, and his family background and appearance are impeccable." Lord Xiao Hou commented in an objective tone: "It's just that his body is a little weaker."

Hearing the words, Hengyu thought of the situation in the Cuju field yesterday, and the embarrassment of Jin Jialangjun, Ma Zhe and other children who were bullied by him so that they had no reason to reason, so he couldn't help but fell silent.

He is clearly a very normal young man, but he is "slightly weaker" than him.

"This... I guess it's because he only cares about reading and neglects to strengthen his body." Ji Nanxian smiled: "A young gentleman who was raised in a scholarly family is always inferior to the strength honed by Lord Hou's years of marching physique."

Speaking of this, Ji Nanxian realized that it was not appropriate to only focus on his own sister, and felt that he had somewhat neglected the guests, so he smiled and said: "Speaking of which, when I chatted with Ah Heng last time, Speaking of the lifelong events of Lord Hou...Your Lord has made countless achievements in his youth, the battlefield is his home, and he devoted himself to protecting the stability of the country. Now that the Northland is safe, should we also consider getting married?"

"Yes." Xiao Mu said: "Fortunately, God has mercy on him, and now he has met the person he likes."

Unexpectedly, Ji Nanxian's casual remark led to such an astonishing remark: "...Xiao Jie has a sweetheart?"

Over there, Hengyu was stunned.

"I don't know which girl it is? Is it a lady in Beijing?" Ji Nanxian sat up straight and asked with great interest.

"Exactly." Xiao Mu looked at Heng Yu.

Hengyu couldn't help but hold her breath, and quickly grasped her ten fingers.

Ji Nanxian followed Xiao Mu's line of sight, and was a little puzzled for a moment--Xiao Jieshi answered as soon as he answered, what to see his sister?

The next moment, I heard that Xiao Jieshi who had a pine figure and a cold face said——

"I have admired Ah Heng for a long time."

Stand still for a moment.

Ji Nanxian's demeanor seemed to be frozen, it couldn't be more completely frozen.

Heng Yu's eyes widened as well, and she stopped talking for a while.

"Xiao Jieshi..." Ji Nanxian couldn't find his voice with great difficulty, his eyes froze between Xiao Mu and Heng Yu slowly: "What you said just now...was it a joke?"

Xiao Mu: "Jing Shi dare not joke."

Ji Nanxian: "!"

Why did you suddenly call yourself Biaozi? !

Such a low posture and small gesture, no matter how you look at it...it doesn't look like a fake!
That's what he looked like when he, his father-in-law and eldest brother-in-law proposed to marry A Yao!

"You—A Heng..." Ji Nanxian looked at his sister almost out of control: "This matter...you, do you know?!"

Heng Yu bit the bullet and forced a smile, nodded: "Not only did he know...but he couldn't stay out of it."

Ji Nanxian took a deep breath.

To put it mildly!

Isn't that what it means to be in love with each other?

He has heard all this, so is it missing this sentence?
"Before... you still swore to Brother Brother that you would help Xiaohou lead the red line?!" At this moment, Ji Nanxian felt that he had been greatly deceived.

"Pull it for myself, isn't it considered pleading?" Heng Yu smiled guiltyly.

Ji Nanxian stood up abruptly, looked at the two people who were sitting there and looked at him together, and pointed at them with trembling fingers unbearably: "You...wait here for a while!"

"Until I come back... no one is allowed to leave!"

"Shulin—"

Hearing this call, the young servant opened the door and walked in, took a look at this inexplicable scene, and asked in a low voice, "What orders does your lord have?"

Ji Nanxian: "Look at them, don't allow them to leave the study!"

Boy: "?!"

If Mr. Lang is dissatisfied with him, he can speak out, so there is no need to use this method to embarrass him or even force him to death?
Reason tells him that this is not the time to be brave: "Ten villains... I'm afraid they can't stand a Xiao Jieshi?"

Heng Yu felt a little sympathetic to look at the boy - might as well be more confident and bold, even a hundred of them may not be able to stand up.

But it doesn't matter, Xiao Jing, who came out of this basket, must have been conscious enough.

Ji Nanxian didn't care about these things anymore, and left here with one foot and one foot, and went straight to his grandmother's courtyard.

Mrs. Meng had already rested at such a time, and today it happened that the lights were not turned off because Ning Yu was here to talk with her. Hearing her grandson coming at this time, she couldn't help feeling surprised, and then saw the figure who rushed in almost panicked, He was even more shocked.

"Grandmother... something happened!"

"Something happened!"

"Go and have a look!" Ji Nanxian, who ran all the way over, said unevenly.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Meng immediately dismissed the irrelevant servants in the room, leaving only one confidant female envoy.

"Brother, what happened? Please explain clearly!" Ning Yu asked nervously.

"Aheng, she...! Jieshi Xiao——" Ji Nanxian shook his head and sighed heavily, "Jiexiao Xiao actually said that he has been in love with Ah Heng for a long time! Ah Heng also... At this time, these two people have been seen by my order Get up, please hurry up and deal with this matter, grandma!"

Mrs. Meng heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the words, and said with a helpless smile, "I still think it's something!"

Ji Nanxian: "?"

Isn't that a big deal? !
After Ning Yu was stunned for a moment, she couldn't help laughing: "Brother, why are you so frightened?"

Ji Nanxian: "??"

Isn't it? !
"So... there is such a thing?" The female envoy at the side couldn't help covering her mouth and let out a low voice.

Ji Nanxian looked at the envoy, and only now did he regain a sense of reality.

"Since Xiao Hou is here, if we don't see you, it's not the way to welcome guests." Mrs. Meng smiled and was supported by Ning Yu.

Ji Nanxian followed his grandmother out of the courtyard, and suddenly thought of an extremely important matter, so he took the next step to tell the envoy: "... Hurry up and tell the lady about this!"

If such a big event falls to A Yao, if he doesn't tell her immediately, he will be in great trouble later on!

The female envoy responded and transferred to Yu's courtyard.

Mrs. Yu, who was still in confinement, had already taken a nap and was feeling refreshed at the moment, so she asked the wet nurse to hold the upside-down half of the doll, and sat on the bed by herself, hugging and teasing the doll——

"Lang Jun specially asked the servant girl to come and tell the lady that the envoy Xiao Jie came to the house and said that he likes the second girl. At this moment, the old lady has brought the eldest girl to see her..." the maid whispered in Yu's ear .

"God!" Yu Shi almost threw the baby in her hand, but fortunately the envoy's quick eyes and hands quickly stabilized the swaddling baby that was about to fly out.

The next moment, the baby in swaddling clothes was stuffed by the mother to the maid.

Mrs. Yu threw off the quilt and was about to get out of bed, but was stopped by the woman beside her: "My lady, you can't go out of the house to catch the wind!"

"Why are you so in the way!" Mrs. Yu stamped her feet angrily: "Why do people have to confine themselves to confinement! Why do they have to have children!"

She couldn't witness this kind of scene with her own eyes, it was an unbearable pain in her life!

……

When Mrs. Meng arrived, Heng Yu and Xiao Mu were standing in the study very consciously waiting for each other, just like two children waiting for their elders to deal with them.

Hengyu felt in his heart that this time he was the one who was implicated - this person acted uncharacteristically, had no rules at all, and put her in the position of being reprimanded for a single disagreement.

"Jing Shi has met the old lady." Xiao Mu saluted, with a trace of imperceptible anxiety under the candid and respectful eyes.

"I don't know that the envoy Xiao Jie came to visit late at night, but he was really rude." Mrs. Meng said with a smile: "Please sit down and talk."

Hearing his grandmother's polite greetings here in a leisurely manner, Ji Nanxian was very anxious.

　Good night everyone~
