Chapter 591 Sudden Marriage Proposal

This golden lock is worth more than all the golden locks in our hands.It is not the weight of the gold, but the print on it.Twenty years in the morning, some banknotes in some places in the north were printed with this pattern. "

"From my point of view, if you keep it, you will make a lot of money in the future. How can you take advantage of that poor girl!"

"Shopkeeper, you are really good at this trick. I guess that poor girl naturally thought that the golden lock was bought by someone, so she probably won't come again."

Qing Chuan came out secretly in the past few days, just to inquire about the golden lock that Aunt Zhao sold, but at this time she found nothing, her mood was extremely depressed, and she walked in the bustling crowd like no one else.

On weekdays, she would linger on the busy streets and the dazzling array of shelves, but at this time she was completely devoid of emotion.

She didn't notice that there was a man in brocade clothes watching her all the time.

Qing Chuan returned to the Hou Mansion, knowing that she might be punished by Aunt Zhao for leaving the house, but she didn't care because her golden lock was gone anyway, so she had the urge to have a big fight with Aunt Zhao at this time.

The strange thing is that Aunt Zhao didn't come to ask about it, she thought it was because Aunt Zhao had a reason and dared not come here, so she stayed clean for two days.

Two days later, Aunt Zhao suddenly brought some wives over and said with a smile, "Qingchuan, happy event, happy event!"

Qingchuan looked at Aunt Zhao in astonishment, not knowing where the joy came from.

Aunt Zhao pointed to the person beside her, "This is the matchmaker invited by Mr. Jin, the inspector of the household department, to match Miss Xiang Qingchuan for Mr. Jin's nephew."

Qing Chuan didn't know who they were, but she knew that Aunt Zhao was going to be her matchmaker. Seeing that there were two women in their 40s with red flowers on their hair, she felt goosebumps all over her body.

The matchmaker smiled and said: "Miss Qingchuan looks really handsome, no wonder our Young Master Biao fell in love with her." She smiled again and said to Aunt Zhao, "In terms of looks alone, she is really on par with Young Master Biao." ah."

Qingchuan was startled, turned around and left without saying a word.

The maid beside Aunt Zhao went after Qingchuan, but Aunt Zhao smiled and said, "Girl Qingchuan is getting older, so she naturally knows how to be shy."

The matchmaker just laughed, "Tsk tsk, after all, she is from the Hou family. Madam has trained her well, and she doesn't look like a girl at all, but looks like a daughter. If you want to say, it is really fate that Master Biao fell in love with Miss Qingchuan, he But I never asked Mrs. Jin for anything, and when I saw her on the street the day before yesterday, I immediately fell in love with her."

When Aunt Zhao heard that the matchmaker praised Qingchuan, she only hated that this little hoof was taken advantage of, but because the Hou Mansion and her had good reputation, and because it was Mrs. Jin who came forward, this gift money would be indispensable in the future.

After the matchmaker left, Aunt Zhao brought the maid inside and said with a smile: "Qingchuan, these good satin clothes are for you. It's cold, so you have to dress warmly, right?"

Qing Chuan sat there with a cold face and didn't say a word. When the other servants saw her, "Oh, girl Qing, you have to be kind and repay your kindness, not to mention good and evil. This lady is worried about your marriage. , who are you showing your face to?"

Qingchuan immediately pushed down the burden on the case, "I don't need it! Don't even think about it, I won't agree to be a concubine!"

"Huh? It's up to you?!"

Aunt Zhao sneered, "What's the matter with being a concubine? You're just a girl! Take good care of her. I'll go back to the master tomorrow, and there's nothing I can do if I see her screwing up again!" After saying that, Aunt Zhao left angrily.

Aunt Zhao left others to persuade her, and one of them was Liniang. This Liniang also served Ning Qingqing before, and now she also obeys Aunt Zhao.

"Qingchuan, don't be confused! Although Mr. Yuan is not from the capital city, he is from a well-to-do family in the southern region. He is only in his twenties, has a handsome appearance, and is a scholar. Although he has a first wife, he is also sick. You haven't had a baby for many years, and you gave birth to a son and a half daughter for Mr. Yuan—"

Speaking of this, Liniang saw that there was no one outside, so she quietly said to Qingchuan, "It must be much better than Aunt Zhao, the wife of Lord Hou is the princess, and there are two direct daughters left behind, and the aunt is from the palace." Empress, so Aunt Zhao has been..."

"You are different. You are the one who caught the eye of Mr. Yuan. You are young and good-looking, and you are from the Hou family. Don't wait for that guard Luo. He has no family property, he came from a crooked family, and relies on fighting for a living, especially because he has an evil disease, and if he commits a crime, he will hurt others..."

Liniang poured her heart out, Xu Xu said a lot, Qing Chuan remained dumbfounded.

It was night, Qingchuan tossed and turned on the couch, thinking of Luo You who was not in the capital, tears wet the pillow.

The world is unpredictable, the second lady reconciles, goes to prison, and leaves Beijing, Luo You is not around, but she is forced to marry.

On the afternoon of the third day, she heard the news that Master Hou had agreed to the marriage.Jinfu personally stood up for Yuan Ji, saying that he was only waiting for auspicious days to accept the lottery.

Even if Qingchuan refused, Lord Hou agreed, no matter how much Qingchuan cried, it would be useless.

When Ning Qingyu heard about this, she came to visit Qingchuan. To Qingchuan's surprise, the eldest lady also came to persuade her.

"I heard that Mr. Yuan is a good man. He is a scholar. He came to Beijing to gain fame. Although the Yuan family's official career has declined, they are a scholarly family. Mrs. Yuan of Jin's mansion is his aunt."

Qingyu didn't know about the relationship between Qingchuan and Luo You, so at this moment, it was also based on Qingchuan's own considerations.

"Young Master Yuan already has a wife. I know you have always been a high-minded person, so I really don't like it. The Hou Mansion recently inquired, and it is true that Yuan Ji's original wife has been sick and bedridden for several years, and his wife is also happy for him to take another concubine. It is said that Yuan Ji fell in love with you at first sight, so he will treat you well."

"Miss... how nice he is, Qingchuan doesn't want to marry, I don't want to leave the Hou Mansion, I don't want to leave the capital."

After all, Qingchuan didn't say that she had someone she liked, but just shook her head in refusal.

Qingyu sighed, with a slightly sad tone: "Even if you don't want to, so what? Since my father agreed, I'm afraid it's a certainty."

Qing Chuan recalled that the eldest lady's marriage was also ordered by her parents back then, so it is the current situation.She knew that the eldest lady had a gentle and polite temperament, and in this matter, she couldn't expect the eldest lady to have the same temperament as the second lady, and she would not fight with Lord Hou.

At this point, Qingchuan could only feel disheartened, "Miss, do you believe me now?"

Speaking of this, Qingyu's eyes became red, "I only recently found out that my father went west because my sister had an accident in other places, and King Jin also went to Xiling County because of Qingqing's disappearance. There is good news."

Qing Chuan was taken aback, never thought that such a thing would happen to Second Miss.

That day, the two chatted in the pavilion, and when they came out, Ning Qingyu's eyes were red, and so was Qingchuan.Afterwards, it was said that Master Hou had asked Qing Chuan to talk to him, but Qing Chuan couldn't evade it and just said that he would wait for a while and then let Master Hou make the decision.
