Sir, can you marry me?

Chapter 72

Xiao Wenqing changed into a light blue double-breasted skirt, with a bag of clothes in her hands, and accompanied by Zhao's mother, she walked out of the main room and came to the courtyard.

Ling Yuxuan and Zhao Mingtang, who were eating watermelon and talking under the grape arbor, saw them coming out, so they immediately got up and walked over.

"Brother, Lord Ling, I'm ready." Xiao Wenqing said calmly, her eyes were as deep as water, but her right hand was firmly grasping the small bundle on her right arm.

big brother?

Ling Yuxuan and Zhao Mingtang were immediately taken aback by her address.

Mother Zhao immediately explained: "I like Wenqing. Since we have no chance to be mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, we should be mother and daughter." She looked at Ling Yuxuan, "Master Ling has no objection?" If Ling Yuxuan looked down on her as a commoner, she could only Worried that the threshold of the Prime Minister's Mansion is too high, even if Wen Qing can marry, she will still have to suffer a lot in the future.

Ling Yuxuan smiled, "Auntie and Wenqing have always been in love with their mother and daughter. Wenqing has a godmother in the capital, so she will feel at ease." During the days with Zhao's mother, he felt a maternal love that he had never had before, so Wenqing He has no objection to recognizing Zhao's mother as a godmother.

"I'm relieved when you say that." Mother Zhao said happily, and lightly patted Xiao Wenqing's arm, indicating that she could leave with Ling Yuxuan.

Xiao Wenqing stood tall and graceful under the shadow of the eaves, with a smile on her face, as if she was going on an outing. Only Ling Yuxuan, who knew a little, could see anxiety and uneasiness about the future in her eyes. "Wen Qing." He said to Xiao Wenqing tenderly, "Since I decided to take you away, I have made all the preparations."

Xiao Wenqing nodded slightly, and said: "I understand." She would be humble and respectful, trying her best to get Ling Yuxuan's parents to accept their marriage.

"The carriage is right outside, come with me." Ling Yuxuan said, cupping his hands towards Mother Zhao, "Auntie, I will take care of you in the past. If you have any difficulties, please go to the Prime Minister's Mansion or go to the Longlin Guard camp on the left side of the palace. I."

Ling Yuxuan bowed his hands to Zhao Mingtang again, "Brother Zhao, I wish Brother Zhao a bright future, and hope that you will marry a wife as soon as possible, and let the aunt hold a grandson."

Xiao Wenqing looked deeply at Zhao's mother and son, and said: "Brother, mother, Wenqing is gone, and I will definitely come back to visit you in the future." She had already told her godmother when she was in the house about gratitude and farewell.

Zhao's mother hurriedly helped Xiao Wenqing up, and said with pity: "Wenqing, if you are too difficult, you can come back, mother and your elder brother will take care of you." Zhao Mingtang nodded to the unexpected sister, expressing what his mother said. That's right.

"Thank you mother, thank you brother." Xiao Wenqing said gratefully.

Ling Yuxuan went out first, waving to the left.Soon, several young men with swords under the big tree in the distance came over with their horses and carriages. "My lord." The carriage stopped in front of Zhao's courtyard, and the middle-aged coachman bowed to Ling Yuxuan and quickly put down the step stool.

"Wen Qing, I'll take you to my sixth sister's house." Qi Xuan said, "I've already told my sixth sister that she is willing to take care of you." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand towards Xiao Wenqing.

"Mother, brother, I'm leaving. It's hot outside, you go in quickly." After Xiao Wenqing finished speaking, he hesitated a little, and got into the carriage with her skirt and stepping on the step stool.

Ling Yuxuan smiled slightly, put down his hands gracefully, and bowed his hands again to the mother and son of the Zhao family who saw them off, "Mother, brother Zhao, we will meet later." After finishing speaking, he took the reins of the horse handed over by his subordinates, turned over briskly and rode on him The snow-white horse "Flying Snow".

The carriage drove slowly, Xiao Wenqing poked his head out from the window of the carriage, and waved to Zhao's mother and son.She is now an abandoned wife, since the neighbors around her are enjoying the cool at home, she should not yell loudly, lest she lose face and embarrass Zhao's mother and son.However, if a family suddenly loses a person, the neighbors will definitely ask, and the godmother will have to explain to them.

Riding by the window of the car, Ling Yuxuan said to Xiao Wenqing: "My sixth brother-in-law is a scholar of the Imperial Academy. He hoped that with his sixth sister, she could quickly master the basic knowledge of ladies in the capital and be able to withstand the pickiness of his mother, the prime minister's wife.

Listening to Ling Yuxuan's words, Xiao Wenqing knew his intentions well, and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I will work hard."

"Wenqing, call me Yuxuan." Ling Yuxuan said softly, with a slight smile on his handsome and resolute face.What Xiao Wenqing liked was the Zhao Mingtang he pretended to be, and he deliberately imitated Zhao Mingtang's dullness while pretending to be Zhao Mingtang, so now he hoped that Xiao Wenqing would quickly fall in love with Ling Yuxuan himself.

"My lord, you and I are not relatives, so I'd better call you your lord." Xiao Wenqing said softly.She is about to enter the official family in the capital, so there should be no obvious disrespect.

Ling Yuxuan was the smartest, and he also understood Xiao Wenqing's concerns, so he nodded and said, "What you said makes sense." After they made a marriage contract, he asked her to call him by his name directly.

In the hot afternoon, there were few pedestrians on the road.The wheels turned gruntingly, crossed two main streets, passed a spacious bluestone road with red tiles and high walls on both sides, and stopped in front of a medium-sized mansion.

Seeing a carriage parked in front of his house, the handsome man leading the white horse got off his horse, and the dozing doorman quickly ran over, nodded and bowed and said, "Fourth Uncle, you are here, please come in quickly." The man is their master's brother-in-law, the commander of the Dragon Scale Guard, the commander Tong Zhiling, a powerful figure who cannot be offended.

"I'm here to pay your respects to your wife, and I'll send someone over to be her company." Ling Yuxuan said loudly, and handed the reins of the horse in his hand to a porter.
