The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 81 81. Agree

"During the Lantern Festival, envoys from various countries come to congratulate you. If someone brings up the matter of marriage, it will be troublesome. There is no princess of marriageable age among your Majesty's daughters. The right ones are chosen from the prince's family. I think Although Ruo is just a county head, considering his age and background, he has a high chance of being selected. If he doesn’t make a marriage decision early, I’m afraid..."

 I see, it’s no wonder that Princess Wen Yi has been trying her best to promote this matter during this period. There is such a reason.

Mrs. Lin stopped trying to persuade her this time and looked at her firmly, "Your worries are not unreasonable. Siruo has promised to Prince Kang's Mansion, and Mu Qian's son is working in the Gyeonggi Department. At least he will stay in Dongdu City. It will be convenient for us to meet each other in the future, but if we get married, wouldn't we be separated by thousands of miles of mountains and rivers? No, absolutely not!"

Princess Wen Yi nodded, with this consideration in mind.

"Wash your face and rest here for a while. I'll go talk to Siruo. Although the child is careless, if the truth is explained to her clearly, she can understand it."

"So, thank you sister-in-law. My mother's family has already agreed. As long as Siruo agrees, the marriage between the two of them can be finalized in the next few days!"

"good!"

 After saying that, he got up and walked towards Shoukangyuan.

When Mrs. Lin opened the curtain and entered, Bai Siruo had just stopped crying. When he saw her walking in, he stood up and saluted, and said with a hint of tears, "Hello, auntie."

"Sit down quickly. I just persuaded your mother. She didn't mean it. Mother and daughter don't have an overnight feud. Let's get over it. That's good."

Bai Siruo nodded. She didn't really hate her mother, she just said stupid things when she was angry.

He told Mrs. Bai about his marriage just now, and Bai Siruo's heart beat as he listened.

 After all, compared with getting married, marrying this cousin whom you have never met seems to be a little better.

 Just want her to agree immediately, because the threshold in her heart is too high to pass.

“Grandma, forgive me, aunt, please forgive me. I have a headache, so I’m going back to rest.”

With freshly wiped tears still hanging on his face, his tone was less happy than before and he said in a tone of impatience.

"Go, go, Haitang, go back and get a hot handkerchief to put on your lady's eyes to prevent them from getting swollen." Auntie Lin reminded her.

After the others left, Mrs. Lin comforted Mrs. Bai, "Siruo will figure it out, mother, don't worry."

Hey, let out a long sigh, the more times like this, the more Mrs. Bai feels that she is getting older. It is obviously a big event for her direct granddaughter to get married, but there are so many complicated things mixed in it, and a good marriage has turned into a Nothing can be done.

 Compared with the gloomy mood in the Bai Mansion, the Prince Kang's Mansion a few streets away was actually beaming with joy.

In Lingfeng Courtyard, Xiao Muqian was showing off with a silver spear in his hand.

The muscles on his strong arms were tense, and the veins on his hands popped out. The whistling sound of the silver gun could be heard in the air wherever it hit.

 Mother Liu, who was next to the Crown Princess, happened to see this scene when she came over.

He had a smile on his face, feeling quite relieved.

“Second Young Master, the Crown Princess invites you to come over to discuss matters.”

Hearing this, Xiao Muqian stopped holding the silver gun in his hand, turned around and looked over. Zhuo Ran stood upright in the courtyard, his lips tightly closed as if cut by a knife, and there were some beads of sweat on his face. Even so, there was a slight trace of sweat. The cold air makes people afraid to make mistakes.

“Mother, what is something urgent you want to tell me?”

"I don't know what I'm doing. I'll know it when the second young master meets the imperial concubine." Xiao Muqian frowned. He was approaching the end of his life. His mother was very busy these days. How could she have time to talk to him? What was she going to discuss? unknown.

He casually wiped the sweat off his face with a handkerchief and followed Mother Liu to her mother's courtyard.

Now that Prince Kang is still alive, the eldest son has only inherited the position of the crown prince. The old princess has been a vegetarian for many years, and all the housekeeping matters in the palace have been handed over to the crown prince.

She was born into the Liu family, a high-ranking official. She usually has the most gentle temperament, but it does not mean that she has no thoughts and skills.

Having two sons, Xiao Muan, the eldest son, naturally wants to support the family of Prince Kang's family, so his daughter-in-law chose a young lady from the Luo family who has a steady temperament and powerful methods.

Erlang Xiao Muqian didn't need this, and he was afraid that there would be discord between his sisters-in-law due to power, so he chose Bai Siruo because her temperament was not that good at maneuvering.

Kang Prince’s Mansion loves his daughter who is married outside and also cherishes his granddaughter, so the engagement has already been arranged.

After Xiao Muqian heard what his mother told him about the marriage, his brows remained tense and never relaxed.

He really has no impression of the Bai family's cousin.

They are four or five years apart in age. When the cousin of the Bai family can remember, he had already followed his second uncle to Liangzhou, for no other reason than because he had longed for the military life since he was a child.

In Prince Kang's palace, his eldest brother was destined to inherit the throne of the heir apparent, so he was rejected more often when he was a child. On the contrary, because he was only the legitimate second grandson, everyone wanted to be a little more lenient and followed his wishes.

"Mom, my cousin and I have never met each other. Is it appropriate to get engaged so soon? Does the Bai family agree?"

"Why don't you agree? Your aunt came back to discuss this matter with us. How is the child Siruo? He has a cheerful and generous temper, and is not restrained at all. I heard that he has been fond of riding and shooting since he was a child. Isn't he a perfect match for you? ?”

Now the Crown Princess is like a peddler of melons. She keeps praising Bai Siruo and trying her best to facilitate this marriage.

Seeing that his son did not let go, he started talking about the issue of heirs again.

The eldest brother got married early, and now his eldest son is three years old, but he has not even decided on a marriage. In addition, he is more than 20 years old. If the delay continues, the eldest brother's legitimate son may be able to enter the academy, and he has not yet had a queen.

 Because of this matter, he was often talked about by his family.

 I was hiding in Liangzhou a few days ago, just saying a few words in letters home. Now that I'm back in Dongdu City, I mention this matter all the time.

 Xiao Muqian had no woman he admired in his heart, so he nodded in agreement after thinking for a moment.

Seeing that he agreed, the Crown Princess smiled broadly. She turned around and ordered her mother beside her to get the engagement gift list and then consider what to add.

 When the news was sent to Bai Mansion, Princess Wen Yi thought for a while and went to Bai Siruo's yard.

The mother and daughter didn't know what they were talking about. They cried for a while and then laughed again. Haitang followed outside the door, feeling sad and happy for a while. When the people inside finished talking and came out, she knew that this marriage was going on. It’s done.

On the third day, the news of the engagement between Xiao Muqian, the direct descendant of Prince Kang's palace, and Bai Siruo, the daughter of the Bai family, spread among the ladies of the Eastern Capital City.

The old prince, old princess, eldest son, eldest son and concubine of Prince Kang's residence, together with their second son Xiao Muqian and a group of servants, came to the house in person to give gifts. The scene was so grand that one could tell at a glance that they valued Bai Siruo, the daughter of the Bai family.

Everyone in the White House was smiling and happy to see the success.
