Chapter 50
Shen Qinglan noticed Madam Hou's expression, which seemed to be a little unspeakable, so she took the initiative to speak.

"Madam invited me here today, not just to reminisce about the old days."

Mrs. Hou took a sip of the teacup unhurriedly, then put it back on the table safely, and then said: "Our two families have been friends since Mrs. Tai's generation, so we are familiar with each other. So, Auntie won't play around with you anymore. I know, Sisi is a smart person."

Seeing her appearance, this is the time to talk about business. Shen Qinglan also picked up the teacup and took a sip again. The tea was too strong, and she was not used to drinking it.

"Auntie, please tell me." Shen Qinglan said.

"Yesterday, my cousin from Prince Heng's Mansion came to visit, and mentioned to Lord Hou and me that the official family intends to call us back to Beijing, and to give Xing'er a marriage. The other party is the daughter of General Wei's family."

When Mrs. Hou said this, Shen Qinglan's heart beat wildly, and Yan'er beside her also showed a look of shock.

In the previous life, Mu Xingze married the daughter of a general, probably this General Wei.

In this life, His Majesty will marry them so soon.

Mrs. Hou glanced at her, and continued: "General Wei has guarded the frontier for ten years. He has worked hard and has made great achievements. He has now been recalled to Beijing. It is precisely because there are no children of the right age in Beijing that he is married to our Nanyang Houfu. The legitimate daughter of the Wei family has met once before, so she is not completely unfamiliar."

Shen Qinglan drank tea calmly, although she didn't like it.

"Auntie knows that you and Xingze are childhood sweethearts, and there is friendship between the two. Auntie thinks... Sisi also doesn't want Xingze to give up her bright future. Our Nanyang Hou Mansion has been in Luoping for a long time, and now we can finally enjoy the call of grace." , can return to the capital, this is also the credit of Xingze." Mrs. Hou said.

Shen Qinglan let out a long breath, and put on an unnatural smile, "I don't know what Brother Xingze said?"

"Marriage matters, Xingze naturally has to obey the orders of his parents and the words of the matchmaker. What's more, even though our family has a noble title in a marriage bestowed by an official, disobedience will also bring disaster. Sisi, what do you think?" Mrs. Hou said.

Yan'er was on the side with a bitter face, looking down at her young lady, wondering how sad the young lady is now!
Shen Qinglan lowered her head slightly, and after a moment of silence, she responded lightly, "Yes."

Madam Hou immediately smiled, "Auntie knows that Sisi is a sensible child!"

"The holy will must not be violated. Since that is the case, Sisi will not bother her. Sisi also knows what Auntie wants."

Shen Qinglan said and stood up.

"Sisi, everyone in the world knows that beating a mandarin duck with a stick is a bad thing, and my aunt is also very sorry. If you really like Xingzhe, after he gets married..."

"Needless to say, Auntie, Sisi will definitely not be a concubine."

Shen Qinglan interrupted what she was going to say next, and Yan'er stepped forward to hold her arm.

"Miss, let's go." Yan'er said.

"Wait a minute, Sisi, Xingze has been stubborn since he was a child. Although he will not refuse the marriage offer from the Holy Majesty because of you, my aunt still hopes that you can help comfort him. Now he has not had a drop of water for two whole days and two nights. I haven't touched the rice yet, I'm afraid my body won't be able to bear it, and Sisi doesn't want him to trample on her body for you." Mrs. Hou said.

Yan'er couldn't bear it at all at the moment, "Mrs. Hou, what about the young master is his business, what has it to do with our lady? Our lady is going to comfort her, so who will comfort her? You are morally kidnapping!"

She just learned the word "moral kidnapping" from Shen Qinglan, and she didn't know if it was appropriate to use it here, but that's what she thought of.

"Yan'er, don't be disrespectful to Mrs. Hou."

Shen Qinglan turned to look at Mrs. Hou, neither humble nor overbearing, "Mrs. Hou, please tell the young master that my fate with him is over, so don't be troubled because of me. Mrs. Hou doesn't have to send it off, Sisi said goodbye."

After all, Shen Qinglan and Yan'er left together.

After leaving the flower hall, there is still a blooming cherry garden on the way back.

There was no expression on Shen Qinglan's face, she just walked forward coldly.

A relationship has ended before it even started, and it disturbed my heart.

Instead of this, why not think otherwise at the beginning, and not be reduced to this point.

"Madam Hou is too much, it's lucky that Miss can be so respectful! The same is true for Young Master Hou, he promised everything, why did everything change in the blink of an eye?" Yan'er complained.

"I don't blame him, I only blame myself. I have a foolish dream in my heart, but it's nothing but nothing."

"Miss... don't be sad."

Yan'er's eyes turned red. Shen Qinglan's wronged was even more uncomfortable than her own being wronged.

Shen Qinglan glanced at her and said with a smile: "If you want me not to be sad, then you can't leave me behind when you play cards, and play secretly by yourself."

"Miss……"

Yan'er couldn't help crying at all, at this moment, a call suddenly sounded from behind the two of them.

"Sisi!"

Shen Qinglan turned his head, and Mu Xingze was running towards her, only to see that his eye circles were dark, his lips were slightly white, and he was so emaciated after not seeing him for a few days.

As soon as Mu Xingze ran to her side, he grabbed her hand.

Shen Qinglan frowned slightly, Mu Xingze relaxed a little hastily, but not completely.

"Little Marquis, I heard that you are about to move your family back to the capital, and His Majesty will give you a marriage. When you get married, Sisi will not be able to attend the ceremony in person, so I will congratulate you first."

After finishing speaking, Shen Qinglan wanted to withdraw her hand, but was held tightly by Mu Xingze again.

"Sisi, I don't want to marry that person, I don't know her at all! You are the only one I want to marry! Trust me!"

Hearing this, Yan'er backed away quietly.

"Your Majesty's gift of marriage is a gift. Brother Xingze, don't want to ruin the future of the whole family for someone who is not worthy of me."

Shen Qinglan thought she could be ruthless, but the way Mu Xingze stood in front of her, holding back tears still made her heart ache.

"No, Sisi... I don't want to give up, I really don't want to give up. You wait for me, I promise you, it won't take too long this time, as long as I persist, my parents will definitely agree!" Mu Xing Ze's words are sincere.

Shen Qinglan sighed secretly, if this continued, he might lose half of his life.

"Brother Xingze, do you want to use your body to coerce your own Gaotang for the sake of mere love for your son and daughter? Sisi knows that the parents who suffer from body, hair and skin have never read a few books. Don't you understand? You Doing this will only make me look down on you! Fate comes and goes, and for you, Miss Wei is also a good match. No matter how dissatisfied you are, you can't do this, it will chill the hearts of your parents."

"I……"

Shen Qinglan's words made Mu Xingze speechless for a moment.

When the Nanyanghou couple in the corner heard this, they couldn't help feeling a little admiration for Shen Qinglan.
