Chapter 109 109.
"Are you sure you are the eldest girl of the Xuanping Hou Mansion?" Xiao Shilang asked again unwillingly.After all, men usually marry women younger than themselves, and rarely marry older women.

Hmm... On this point, Xiao Shilang didn't really have to do anything, but he was still a little surprised after all.

"That's right, it's the eldest girl." Xiao Beiyue's words were sonorous and forceful, with a loud voice.His tone fully demonstrated the determination of the master.

Xiao Shilang had a strange expression on his face.what.This matter is actually a bit difficult to handle.One of Xiao Shilang's daughters recently entered the Prince's Mansion as a concubine.But Xuan Ping Hou's mansion made it clear that he didn't want to get involved in the battle for the throne, so he didn't care, I'm afraid Xuan Ping Hou didn't want to get involved with the princelings and didn't agree to this marriage.

However, Xiao Shilang didn't say too much, but coughed: "If you insist on this, I will send a matchmaker to inquire about Xuan Pinghou and his wife's intentions. It's just..."

After all, Xiao Shilang couldn't help probing: "Hey, everyone in the world knows that a man should 'get married first and then start a career'. Now that you have plans to marry a wife, you should also think about your own future."

Xiao Shilang's hidden meaning is almost clearly in front of his eyes.Xiao Beiyue knew that he was determined to get himself into an official career, but his threatening words still made Xiao Beiyue frown.

Before Xiao Beiyue could open his mouth, Xiao Nanheng, who was afraid that the situation would change suddenly, said eagerly: "Get married first and then start a business. My brother is still young and has plenty of time. So what if I think about it after getting married? Father is also worried too much. Brother For the sake of my wife, I will also establish my own career. After all, with your example, father, my brother will definitely not grow up to any degree." He was talking about Xiao Shilang's previous events.Although Xiao Shilang is an old-fashioned old man now, when he was young, he was also the most rebellious.Only later, because she was always doing nothing, she forced her to cry in anger.Only then did he restrain himself, study hard, have an official position, and go all the way to where he is today.

It's just a pity that their mother didn't enjoy much happiness with him in peace and stability, because of the dystocia when giving birth to Xiao Beiyue.

This is also the reason Xiao Shilang asked Xiao Nanheng to prepare for the imperial examination early in the year.As for Xiao Beiyue, even though he was not around, in the letters between him and Yongzhou, Xiao Shilang still mentioned that he should read more about academic history.It's a pity that Xiao Beiyue decided early on that he was not the material, so naturally he had no intention of doing so.

Thinking of his dead wife, when Xiao Shilang looked at his youngest son again, his heart finally softened.This is the child his wife gave birth to desperately.He didn't keep his youngest son by his side to raise him, and felt that he owed him a lot.Besides, now that the two of them are at war with each other, the wife's spirit in heaven will be sad when she sees it, right?
"You're right," Xiao Shilang silently swallowed the sentence "15 years old is not too young", and followed Xiao Nanheng's words: "Beiyue in the future, it's better to think slowly. The big things in life , and don’t decide too quickly. Be deliberate, deliberate!”

Seeing that a fight was resolved, Xiao Nanheng quietly breathed a sigh of relief.Fortunately, he managed to stop his father.

He tentatively looked at his younger brother, meeting Xiao Beiyue's grateful eyes.Xiao Nanheng froze for a moment, then nodded calmly.

My brother is grateful to me, that's great!The younger brother really misses my elder brother, woo woo woo.Brother Xiao Nanheng thought so.

Xiao Beiyue also heaved a sigh of relief that he didn't have to have any more unpleasantness with his father.It was about Jiang Shuhui, he didn't dare to make a mistake.Seeing his father's promise, Xiao Beiyue soon had a reason and was about to resign.

"Wait a moment," Xiao Beiyue looked for his reputation, and found that it was Xiao Nanheng who made the sound.

Xiao Nanheng turned around and cupped his hands to Shilang Xiao: Father, it happens that the son is fine, so I won't disturb the father's rest, and the son will leave. "

Turning his head, he hurriedly looked at Xiao Beiyue: "Brother, let's go with elder brother."

Xiao Beiyue naturally had nothing to do.

The experience of the two brothers walking along the road together was considered unusual for both of them.Xiao Nanheng wanted to talk to him a little more, but he was always despised by others for his talkative mouth, so he struggled for a long time and didn't say anything.

Seeing that his yard was about to arrive, Xiao Nanheng tightened his sweaty hands and summoned up his courage: "Brother Yue..."

"Brother."

The two actually spoke at the same time!
Xiao Nanhang hurriedly said: "Brother Yue, come first."

"Thank you brother for speaking for me many times today." If it's with someone else, Xiao Beiyue will usually add "Xiao is very grateful".However, he always felt that Xiao Nanheng would be unhappy if he added such words.

"There's no need to be too polite." Xiao Nanheng tried his best to regain his proper demeanor, and said calmly, "You are all my relatives, this is what you should do."

Then...then there was a silence between the two of them! (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

After saying a word, Xiao Nanhang's tension subsided a lot.He plucked up the courage to continue: "The eldest girl of the Xuanping Hou Mansion, I heard your sister-in-law mention it. I heard that she is a good girl with a quiet personality. The two of you are quite compatible. I wish you, brother, that you will get what you want. .”

Xiao Beiyue's smile deepened: "Thank you brother. Since brother said so, I will lend you a good word."

"Ah, yes, yes." Xiao Nanheng couldn't help nodding, secretly happy.Yes, it looks like he's on to something.

"Then...if nothing happens, my brother will go back to the yard first." The matchmaker came to inquire, and there was a few days between the formal marriage proposal.He might as well take this opportunity to think about how to make Miss Jiang not feel offended, and... moreover, willing to marry him.

Xiao Beiyue's eyes softened, and his movements became a little more impatient.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore."

Seeing that Xiao Beiyue was getting farther and farther away from him, Xiao Nanheng couldn't help calling him again: "Brother Yue!"

Xiao Beiyue turned around.

Xiao Nanheng hated himself for being impulsive, but now seeing Xiao Beiyue turn around, he didn't regret it.He explained to others: "Father, although he is a bit stubborn, he is really for your own good. It's just that father, he hasn't been with you for so many years. Maybe he doesn't know what to do, so he can only take care of you. He will show you all the good things he thinks. It's just..."

Xiao Nanheng was afraid that if he said too much, it would cause Xiao Beiyue's dissatisfaction and have a counterproductive effect, so he could only briefly say: "The day you were born, your mother had a difficult delivery. In order to save you, it was my father who rushed to the palace to ask the current emperor to ask for an imperial doctor. It's a pity that you are the only one who survived. Brother doesn't ask you to force yourself to accept your father, but only asks you to give him a few more chances, so don't hate him for it."

Xiao Beiyue stopped talking, but nodded solemnly.Although he didn't know that there was such a thing back then, he never resented his father.After all, to put it cruelly, there is no relationship between the two of them.

Looking at Xiao Beiyue's background, Xiao Nanheng sighed silently.Alas, my father spoke harshly, so how could he be willing to blame him?It's just that neither of them wants to make it clear that he can only be the middleman.
