Chapter 196
Only then did An Qi get up and go out, and went to the side hall with the girl to invite someone.

In the side hall, both He Zhiqian and He Zhiyan waited anxiously.Hearing that someone was coming, he waited for the old lady to summon him.He Zhiyan also curiously asked the girl what the girl from the Zhao family looked like, but all the girls shook their heads, saying that the girl from the Zhao family couldn't see her face clearly because she was wearing a veiled hat.

He Zhiyan thought to himself: If you don't show it to others, it must be ugly.

Seeing An Qi coming in, He Zhiqian hurriedly got up to salute, "Zixian, you're here."

An Qi nodded to him, then clasped his fists and bowed and said politely: "Brother Gong Jin, please forgive me, I was excited last night, brother Gong Jin, are you okay?"

He Zhiqian smiled wryly and said: "Zixian, you don't have to be like this. It's my brother's fault in the first place."

An Qi praised He Zhiyan again: "The second son is a good talent, and he really lives up to the name of Yongchang's first son."

After hearing this, He Zhiyan raised his chin slightly, and said with a bit of complacency: "I'm overwhelmed, Mr. Zhao Xian is also a good-looking talent. I heard that Mr. Zhao is the Jieyuan of the Luzhou Township Examination. I must ask him for advice when I have the opportunity someday."

He Zhiqian knew from An Qi's words that he definitely wanted to retire, otherwise he wouldn't be so polite to them.

"Second Young Master, Sister She has a few words that I would like to ask Second Young Master in person, and please tell Second Young Master frankly."

He Zhiyan said: "That's natural."

So, the group of three returned to the hall.

Seeing the screen in the hall, He Zhiqian knew that An Ran was worried that his second younger brother would not resign after seeing her appearance, but He Zhiyan was even more convinced that An Ran's appearance was vulgar, so he was afraid of seeing it for himself.

The two brothers of the He family greeted the old lady and Mrs. Wu inside through the screen, and then He Zhiyan said: "I heard from Brother Zhao Xian that the younger sister of the Zhao family has something to ask me, please ask me now."

An Ran said in a low voice: "An Ran knows that she looks vulgar and is not good enough for her second elder brother. I came here today to ask for clarification, and hope that my second elder brother will confess."

He Ziyan said arrogantly: "Well, sister, please. I will tell the truth."

An Ran hesitated and said: "I heard that the second elder brother has always wanted to withdraw from the marriage, I wonder if there is such a thing?"

He Zhiyan felt a little uncomfortable on his face, but thinking that the matter has come to this point, he probably wants to withdraw from the marriage. It would be better to let the village girl die, so he honestly replied: "It's the second brother who is sorry for the younger sister. But I really think that , when our parents made an engagement for us, we were still young, but now that we are older, it may not be suitable. As the saying goes, a twisted melon is not sweet. After retiring, my sister can find someone who suits me. Isn't it the best of both worlds? ?”

The corners of An Ran's lips raised slightly, but her voice was even more miserable: "Second brother's words are absolutely true. An Ran also has self-knowledge, and she doesn't want to delay the second brother's happy marriage. Yun, it has delayed the second elder brother, and I hope the second elder brother will not take it to heart."

He Zhiyan said indifferently: "The past is the past, I won't take it to heart."

Behind the screen, the old lady secretly sighed that her grandson was stupid, and she didn't know that she was being led by the nose.By now, she also understood that the Zhao family really wanted to withdraw their marriage.

At this time, An Ran said in a voice that was about to cry: "Second brother wants to divorce An Ran understands. But, second brother shouldn't pretend to be sick to ruin my reputation. Second brother is like this, how can my sister marry in the future?"

He Zhiyan didn't expect that she would even know that she pretended to be sick and let people spread rumors. He was a little anxious for a moment, and his face was a little uneasy, and he was afraid that she would use this as an excuse to rely on him, so he hurriedly said: "Sister, don't be angry, this is all about the second brother No, I will explain to others that my sister's reputation will definitely not be damaged. Besides, Jiangyang is far away from Hejiang County, as long as my sister doesn't find her husband's house in Jiangyang, she should be fine..."

"Shut up! You are so vile! You still spread such rumors. How can you be worthy of your deceased Uncle Zhao? If you are worthy of the century-old reputation of my He family?" The old lady said everything when she saw her grandson being fooled. Yes, naturally anxious.Immediately afterwards, she said to An Ran: "But sister, don't worry, once you enter the door and the young couple go out together, this rumor will naturally be dispelled."

An Ran sneered, the old lady really had a good idea.It's a pity that He Zhiyan didn't appreciate it, so he shouted eagerly: "No, grandma, didn't you say that you want to retire? I don't want to marry her, she herself agreed to it just now..."

The old lady wanted to go out and give that idiot a slap in the face, but An Ran had already interjected: "Second brother, don't worry, my sister won't rely on you. Please ask the second brother to get someone to prepare the four treasures of the study. Let's write a divorce letter right now!"

"Okay!" He Zhiyan almost jumped up with joy, "Come here, pass on the Four Treasures of the Study!"

Seeing the happy look of his second brother, He Zhiqian couldn't help shaking his head.

At this time, the old lady said in a heavy and regretful voice: "Brother Yan, you will regret today's decision."

An Ran was afraid that the old lady would talk too much, so she immediately said: "Second brother said he wanted to divorce, but would he go back on his word?"

He Zhiyan held his head up and said: "A gentleman can't chase after a word. Don't worry, my sister. I, He Yanhua, have always counted on what I said, and I will never regret it."

"Okay!" An Ran said with a smile, "Then ask Aunt He to prepare the marriage certificate, we wrote the divorce certificate, and ask Aunt He to give me back the marriage certificate left by my father back then."

At this time, the Four Treasures of the Study came up.He Zhiyan immediately asked someone to grind ink and lay out paper, and he wanted to write a divorce letter.

At this time, An Ran said: "Since everything has been settled, I should write the divorce letter! Please ask the old lady to have the screen removed."

As soon as the old lady heard it, she understood that An Ran wanted her grandson to regret it, but she thought that she should let the kid grow up a little bit, how could he be so self-righteous all the time?Then he nodded and ordered people to remove the screen and said: "Come on, move the screen away!"

The two women came forward and quickly closed the screen and lifted it away.An Ran walked to her elder brother with a smile, and the two siblings looked at each other and smiled.

But when He Zhiyan saw the screen moved away, he was also curious to see what the village girl looked like, but he lost his mind when he raised his head.In the past few years, he thought to himself that he had seen many beauties, but unexpectedly, none of them could match the girl in front of him.That bright smile, calm and generous demeanor, how is she like a village girl?
