Chapter 39
Gaoyang County, Liu House.

Liu Xueyi returned to the inner house with a flushed face, but after a cursory glance, he said contemptuously, "Going away?"

Liu Xueyi's wife came over gracefully, and then helped him to sit on the couch.

"For the time being, I have persuaded her to leave, but I can tell that you are still a cousin. If you want me to say that you shouldn't have let her pretend to be a servant to meet people, now it's all right. Xie Xiucai was born with a handsome face. She couldn't let it go even more. I think I have to tell my mother-in-law about this, so as not to cause trouble in the future."

But Liu Xueyi waved his hands nonchalantly: "What could be wrong? She is a girl from a family, and she usually doesn't go out of the door. In short, you must not give her any more hope here. I heard that Zicheng was in the Ming Dynasty. The grades in Shan Academy are very good, and now his Yue family also has a restaurant, so there should be no shortage of money in the future. Cousin, the only thing that can be handed out, is probably not a big deal in Zicheng's eyes."

The beautiful woman was taken aback for a moment, thinking that this was good, and stopped her cousin from thinking about it.

It's just that their husband and wife don't know, how can cousin Song Tingting give up so easily?
Song Tingting was born in a family of merchants, and now she is 19 years old, so she is considered an old girl.

A son or young master from a good family would definitely not be willing to marry her, at most he would take her as a concubine.

But if she was asked to marry a commoner, a trafficker, she would definitely not be happy.

Song Tingting is somewhat arrogant. She always thinks she looks good and has studied for two years. Even though she was born in a merchant family, she has a good family background and no worries about food. How can she look up to ordinary people? ?

Song Tingting thought of Xie Xiuwen in her heart, at first it was because he was a scholar and young and talented, but later she saw his handsome features, and she secretly agreed with her.

Girl Huaichun, how can someone persuade her to rest?

Song Tingting still has someone available by her side.

For example, her maid Mei Lan.

"Go to Xie's Village and try to see if you can meet the old lady of Xie's family."

Mei Lan was so frightened that her face changed: "Miss, what are you going to do? Earlier, Master Biao and Mrs. Biao said it was impossible, so let's wait for the master and madam."

Song Tingting snorted: "A worthless thing! Cousin and sister-in-law just don't want to break the rules. Mr. Xie Langjun is talented, and he will definitely have the opportunity to be a high school candidate in the future. Even if I marry and become a concubine, it is better than an ordinary housewife The lady should be much more decent!"

Mei Lan wanted to persuade again: "Miss, but Mr. Xie Lang has not won the exam after all, why don't we talk about it after next year's autumn?"

Song Tingting said angrily: "Why are you so calm! I am nineteen this year, and I will be twenty in the next year. I am a real old girl. Besides, if I take the initiative to join him after he wins the Juren, wouldn't it look like me? Clinging to wealth? It is better to marry him now before he is in the middle school, at least let him know that I am also willing to share weal and woe with him."

Mei Lan was so anxious that she almost cried.

This is a big deal, how can a maid like her have such courage?
But the young lady has always been very strong-tempered, she has already spoken, and it is impossible not to be afraid.

Seeing that she didn't insist anymore, Song Tingting confessed a few more words, and told her that if she couldn't see the old lady, she could find a way to meet the eldest lady.

Mei Lan didn't dare to disobey her order, so she found an excuse to ask for leave after two days.

"Who do you think wants to see me?" Grandma Xie was tilting her head in the room, and she was a little confused when she heard what the old nanny said.

"Old madam, it's a girl named Mei Lan, who said she came here for a lady from the Song family in the county." The nanny lowered her voice and said, "I said I have something important to tell you, so I dare not let outsiders know about it." .”

Mrs. Xie thought about it carefully, she had nothing to do with the Song family in the county.

However, there is only one Song family in Gaoyang County that can afford to support a maid.

"Go and call someone over."

It's just a maid who came, so you don't need to be too polite.

Mei Lan came in and greeted Auntie Xie first, and then took two steps forward to speak.

"Old lady, this servant came here on the order of the young lady. This is a letter from our young lady to you."

Mrs. Xie took the letter and read it in front of her.

"So it's Liu Xueyi's cousin."

As Xie Xiuwen's classmate, Liu Xueyi has been to Xie's house, so the old lady has a little impression of this person.

Seeing that the old lady mentioned Young Master Biao, Mei Lan immediately said: "Exactly. Our lady and Young Master Biao had made an appointment with Mr. Xie Langjun before. At that time, my lady fell in love with Mr. Xie Langjun very much. It's just that Mr. Xie Langjun is far away now. In Fucheng, my young lady was repeatedly urged to get married by the elders, so I had no choice but to be cheeky and beg you to make the decision."

Grandma Xie narrowed her eyes and looked at the little girl.

She knew that Xie Xiuwen and Liu Xueyi had a good relationship.

But this Miss Song family has her eyes on the second child?
The old lady felt somewhat uncomfortable.

"Little girl, did you make a mistake? My second child has already married a wife, and now even my daughter is five years old."

Mei Lan smiled: "Old Madam, that's right. My lady knows that Xie Langjun has married a wife, and our lady considers her status to be humble, so she is willing to marry here as a concubine. Of course, our master and wife are both For those who love Miss, this dowry is naturally very rich."

Of course Grandma Xie was moved.

Concubine or not, she doesn't care.

Mainly because of the dowry money!

Moreover, since she is the lady of a merchant's family, there should be a lot of dowry money at that time.

"I have to think about this matter for a while. Besides, my second child is not at home now. Even if I want to marry her, at least I have to wait for him to come back."

"What you said is that our lady was also urged by the elders in the family, so I was a little anxious. Look at my memory, I actually forgot the business that the lady told me."

Mei Lan quickly took out a cloth bag from her arms, and offered it with both hands.

"Our lady can't come here in person. It's the first time I beg you to make the decision. It's not rude, and please don't hold it against me."

Even though Grandma Xie is greedy for money, she still knows how to lose face in front of outsiders.

"Well, I will discuss this matter with my grandfather."

"Yes, my lady said that when she comes in later, there will naturally be something better than this to honor you. Then we will wait for the good news."

Seeing that the old lady was showing signs of loosening, Mei Lan finally felt a lot easier in her heart.

As long as the old lady is willing to accept things, it means that the young lady's plan is half done.

Grandma Xie asked Mammy to close the door, and she carefully opened the gray cloth bag, revealing a gold bracelet inside.

Her eyes lit up, and she weighed it in her hand. The weight is not considered heavy, and the material used is estimated to be more than one tael of gold, which is not a lot!
Grandma Xie was very happy, this was the first time she begged her, if the matter was done, would she be able to get a whole set of golden honors?
My breathing suddenly became heavy, and I couldn't calm down anymore!
