There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 561
After the two sides were polite, Lin Youcai shook his head, smiled bitterly, and lamented that the Tang family was such a thieves that they "attacked" Su Xian so quickly.

When it comes to the ladies of aristocratic families, the daughters of the Lin family are no worse than those of the Tang family!

Su Xian raised his eyebrows and said, "Uncle Lin, you don't have to force yourself. If you find it difficult to be a matchmaker for me, you can actually..."

"No no no no!"

Seeing that something was wrong, Lin Youcai hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Now that the matter is over, I don't have anything to complain about. I'll just say it casually. Don't take it seriously, Lord Marquis."

"Since ancient times, marriages are not a trivial matter. When you come to propose a marriage, you must be accompanied by an elder or a matchmaker... Lord Marquis calls me Uncle Lin, and I will do my best to be the matchmaker!"

"Don't worry, Lord Marquis. I have prepared everything you need, including the fortune teller and so on..."

"..."

Su Xian sighed softly, bowed his head and said, "Thank you very much, Uncle Lin."

Soon, Su Xian and Lin Youcai set off, carrying several large carriages filled with gifts, and headed straight for the post office of the state government along Dongcheng Street.

Liu Huixiang stood pretty on the stone steps in front of the mansion, watching Su Xian and his entourage drift away, her eyes filled with inexplicable water, and she didn't turn back to the mansion until she was out of sight.

She didn't have time to think too much because she was really busy.

The tail-burning banquet three days later is the first thing she will host as hostess, and it will most likely be the last thing, so there can be no mistakes...

at the same time.

The house behind the state government office.

Tang family.

back hall.

Tang Ju and Mrs. Chen were still in the living room, frowning, drinking bitter tea, sighing, discussing the matter just now.

Su Xian had such a high opinion of Tang Shuwan, and given the relationship between the Tang family and Su Xian, he shouldn't have declined. What was the reason?
Mrs. Chen lost her "virtuous son-in-law", and the more she thought about it, the more depressed she became, and Tang Ju beside her became more and more displeased. Finally, she stared and asked:
"More than ten days ago, I asked you to go to Nephew Su to hint. Did you hint?"

"It's naturally a hint. With Nephew Su's intelligence, it's impossible for him not to understand." Tang Ju shook his head.

"In that case, why did Nephew Su Xian say 'suddenly' just now? Obviously he was not prepared in any way. Did you really hint at it?" The more Mrs. Chen thought about it, the more something was wrong, and she looked very unkind.

"Uh..." Tang Ju suddenly felt helpless. He frowned and carefully recalled the scene where he hinted at Su Xian more than ten days ago. There was no problem!

"It's all your fault! Even this thing can't be done. I should have gone in the first place." Mrs. Chen scolded, wanting to slap Tang Ju twice.

"Madam, there are still some important matters that need to be dealt with in the yamen, so I will first..."

Tang Ju was also very depressed. He didn't want to argue with Mrs. Chen, and was ready to find a reason to go out for a while to clear his mind.

Mrs. Chen was upset and didn't want to let Tang Ju go. She sat there and said coldly: "From now on, your monthly salary will be zero, and you will never get a single copper from me!"

"Madam, you...you..." Tang Ju was stunned for a while, pointing his finger at her, his eyes widening.

This move is too cruel. How can he do it if he doesn't have a little money in his hand? Otherwise, he won't even be able to afford the stinky tofu.

"What are you!"

Mrs. Chen was so angry that she slapped the case directly.

However, just when she was about to vent her frustration, a servant suddenly ran over and shouted as he ran: "The Marquis is back, bringing a matchmaker and gifts..."

"..."

at the same time.

In the courtyard where Tang Shuwan lives independently.

With Minglan's company and the "comfort" of her sister Tang Shujing, she has gotten much better, at least on the surface there is nothing abnormal.

In order to reassure Minglan and Tang Shujing, she even said against her will: "Brother Shi declined politely. In fact, I had expected it. After all, Brother Shi was just made a marquis today, so he should have a lot of chores to deal with..."

Minglan and Tang Shujing felt relieved after hearing this.

Tang Shuwan was so considerate and always considerate of others. Her own discomfort and grievances were all hidden in her heart, making it invisible to outsiders.

"Miss, are you really okay?" Minglan was still a little worried. She tilted her head and looked at Tang Shuwan's expression carefully, her eyes were like two one-hundred-watt light bulbs.

"I'm fine, don't worry." Tang Shuwan pretended to be relaxed, looking calm and calm.

"Sister, I've said before that Su Xian is not suitable for you, now do you agree? It's his loss if Su Xian doesn't want you. How about we forget about him?" Tang Shujing looked "sincere".

"Who said brother-in-law is suitable for me..." Tang Shuwan was so shy after being told that, but there was nothing she could do about her biological sister.

"..."

At this time, a servant girl rushed over and shouted loudly: "Miss, miss, Master Hou is back again, and he brought a wild goose!"

"What, he's back again?" Tang Shujing looked stunned.

"Wild geese!?"

Tang Shuwan's reaction was even greater. She jumped up from where she was sitting.

Then, under the stunned expressions of Minglan and Tang Shujing, she quickly met the maid running towards her, grabbed her hand, and asked eagerly:

"What did you say just now, what wild goose?"

"Miss, the Marquis is back again, bringing with him a wild goose, sheep, deer, mandarin ducks, and a lot of exquisite utensils, etc., which have piled up a hill in the front hall!"

The maid gestured and described what she saw with her own eyes.

"Is that true?" Tang Shuwan asked cautiously.

"Yes!" The maid nodded solemnly.

"..."

At this time, Tang Shujing and Minglan came over, they both stared at her blankly, until her face was slightly hot, and she slowly let go of the maid's hands that were tightly grasped.

Just now, she was too excited and active, and she couldn't help revealing her true inner thoughts.

What was even more embarrassing was that Tang Shujing and Minglan were right next to them, and they were watching.

Fortunately, she tried her best to appear calm and calm just now...

Tang Shujing looked complicated, looking at her sister's blushing face, and murmured: "I brought the wild goose to visit, it seems that I want to propose marriage!"

Minglan clapped her hands, volunteered and said with a smile: "Miss, please relax, I will go find out the 'enemy situation' right now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for anyone to react, Minglan had already picked up the hem of her skirt and ran away without a trace.

After Minglan left, the previous maid also withdrew, leaving only two sisters, Tang Shuwan and Tang Shujing, in the room.

Tang Shujing returned to the chair and sat down, complaining:

"This Su Xian is really... thanks to him being the Marquis, he is so unreliable in doing things. He declined just now, and now he comes to visit with Dayan. Do you really think that my Tang family is a small family that is easy to bully?"

Tang Shuwan did not go back and sit down, but stood at the door, looking outside the house from time to time. After hearing what her sister said, she frowned and opened her mouth to defend Su Xian...

"Yo yo yo!"

Tang Shujing suddenly became more energetic and joked mercilessly: "I haven't even married yet, and I'm starting to defend him. If I get married, it will be okay!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Tang Shuwan was immediately ashamed and angry, with a hint of secret joy in her heart. She ran over and kissed her sister's face. Naturally, Tang Shujing would not sit still and wait for death.

For a moment, the two sisters chased and fought together, and the room suddenly became lively.
