Being a Lady of an Influential Family
Chapter 208 Marriage Proposal (Part 1)
Leng's house is very lively today, as soon as you enter the door, you can feel the joyful atmosphere in the whole Leng's house.
Leng Sa was not touched by this, although marriage is indeed a happy event, but the Xiao family just came to propose a marriage and made them so happy that they looked grateful, the old master Leng, the former emperor's teacher, was a bit out of place.
All the way into the hall, the hall was indeed full of people.
As soon as Leng Sa raised her head, she saw Xiao Yiran, who was sitting in the first seat under Mr. Leng, was smiling and waving to the two of them.
Leng Sa blinked his eyes and looked down at Fu Fengcheng. Fu Fengcheng's expression was calm and calm, and he couldn't tell whether he knew it in advance or not.
grandfather.
The old man Leng was in a good mood today, and looked at Leng Sa with a much kinder expression.
The third master and the third lady looked at Leng Sa with gratitude in their eyes, and Leng Mingshu, who was sitting by the side, had slightly flushed cheeks, bright eyes that were also full of joy and shyness.
I'm back, sit down. Old Master Leng nodded to Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng, obviously very satisfied with Leng Sa's ability to solve the matter so quickly.
Leng Sa was not polite, walked up to Master Leng and Mrs. Leng and sat down next to him, Father, mother.
Father-in-law, mother-in-law. Fu Fengcheng called out calmly.
There was a moment of silence in the hall. In fact, it was not the first time I heard Young Master Fu address Mr. and Mrs. Leng like that. I just don't know why every time I heard Young Master Fu say hello in such a normal way, it always made people feel extremely weird.
Xiao Yiran was originally leaning on the armrest of the chair with one elbow and tilting his head to watch the show, when he heard this sound, his elbow slipped and hit the armrest directly.
...
Mrs. Leng secretly tugged Mr. Leng who was a bit unresponsive and said with a smile, Fengcheng is here too? It's hard work for you at noon, come and have a cup of tea and rest.
Fu Fengcheng bowed slightly, Thank you, mother-in-law.
The girl from Leng's family quickly brought tea, and everyone quickly put the momentary gaffe behind them as if it never happened.
Only Xiao Yiran who was sitting opposite looked at the two of them with great interest, and even winked in their direction while others were not paying attention.
... Leng Sa was speechless, just saying hello normally, aren't these people exaggerating too much?
The old lady Leng coughed lightly, and said to Leng Sa: You guys came back a bit late, we have already discussed about Shu'er's marriage.
Leng Sa was a little strange, Huh? The third prince? Xiao Haoran didn't come?
Xiao Yiran smiled and said: Didn't someone say that if you see Xiao Haoran in Yongcheng again, you will kill him?
Leng Sa touched his nose calmly, as if he had never heard this sentence before, So, how come it is agreed that the marriage will be decided by the third prince?
Xiao Yiran is too enthusiastic. A dignified prince came here to help his cousin propose a marriage. Does he work as a matchmaker part-time?
Xiao Yiran smiled and said: Of course not, I'm just here as a display, and the two are the right ones. Following Xiao Yiran's gaze, Leng Sa noticed two people next to Xiao Yiran, a middle-aged man in his forties and a Young people in their early twenties.
Xiao Yiran smiled and said: This is Xiao Ming, the deputy head of the Imperial Household Affairs Office, and this is Xiao Minran, the second son of my cousin's family, Xiao Haoran's younger brother. The two of them represent the county prince's mansion and Xiao Haoran to Miss Leng Fourth Propose marriage.
Leng Sa nodded, I see.
Xiao Yiran looked at Leng Sa with great interest, Young Madam, do you have anything else to ask?
Leng Sa was puzzled, What else do I have to ask? The fourth sister's marriage is in the hands of my grandfather, third uncle and third aunt, so just discuss it with them. She just came back for soy sauce. It won't work at all.
Xiao Yiran chuckled, Young Madam is right, I was confused.
The deputy manager Xiao Ming and the second son Xiao Minran both greeted Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng indifferently and didn't say anything more.
Although Fu Fengcheng was famous in the capital in his early years, he is now a useless person. He hasn't left Yongcheng for more than half a year. Naturally, these two people don't feel the need to curry favor with him.
Fu Fengcheng didn't care either, if he hadn't come back with Leng Sa, he wouldn't have cared about these trifles at all.
The old lady Leng quickly brought the topic back, and said: The Xiao family plans to set the wedding date in early October, and Haoran may not be able to come to Yongcheng by then. Your eldest brother and third uncle and third aunt will send Mingshu to the capital to get married.
Leng Sa nodded, not paying much attention to it, I will have already started school by then, but unfortunately I won't be able to attend the fourth sister's wedding. He said it was a pity, but there was no pity on his face.
Old Master Leng naturally hoped that someone from the Fu family would come forward to support Leng Mingshu, but it was not easy to say this in front of the Xiao family. He didn't say much at the moment, and continued to discuss the details of the marriage with the Xiao family.
Leng Sa just sat there bored and listened to it, feeling very boring. She didn't know the details of her own wedding, let alone someone else's wedding.
Seeing her like this, Fu Fengcheng knew that she was bored, so he stretched out his hand to hold her hand that was carelessly knocking on the armrest.
Leng Sa looked up at him, and asked silently: What are you doing?
Fu Fengcheng whispered: Bored? Want to go out?
Leng Sa glanced at the old man Leng who was concentrating on bargaining with the Xiao family, and Xiao Yiran who was looking at them with a smile on their faces watching the show, rolled his eyes and whispered: No, it's almost over.
They came late, and it was really coming to an end.
Although there are still many things to discuss about the marriage, Mr. Leng is too old to sit down for a long time, and some trivial matters are naturally discussed in private, and it is impossible for the Xiao family to leave today.
After a while, the matter came to an end. The third master of the Leng family politely invited the Xiao family to rest, while the second master Leng and the second wife Leng were free because they wanted to entertain their daughter and son-in-law.
After leaving the hall, Xiao Yiran chased after him within a few steps.
Master Fu, sister-in-law, wait for me.
Everyone stopped in their tracks, Master Leng and Mrs. Leng looked at Xiao Yiran who was chasing him with weird expressions. This third prince is also a strange person, and his names for people are so unique.
Leng Sa said: Third Prince, you seem to be very free.
After careful calculation, it's only been a few months, how many times has Xiao Yiran traveled to Yongcheng?
Although there are trains these days, it still takes three or four days to travel from the capital to Yongcheng Road at a slow speed.
Xiao Yiran didn't care, shrugged and said with a smile, It's very free, what else can people like us do?
Leng Sa thought for a while, and what His Highness the Third Prince said was really right.
Children of the royal family cannot join politics or the army, and the rules for the direct descendants of the royal family like Xiao Yiran are even stricter. Xiao Yiran was not even allowed to do business or work in person, so Xiao Yiran really had nothing to do.
Little sister-in-law doesn't see me when she asks me to do business. Seeing me impatiently now, isn't this too much? Xiao Yiran looked at Leng Sa with an aggrieved expression on her face.
Leng Sa rolled her eyes, didn't he get any benefit from asking him to do something?
The three young people didn't care, but the second master Leng and his wife looked worriedly at Young Master Fu and then at Leng Sa and Xiao Yiran.
The daughter looks so familiar with the third prince in front of Young Master Fu, won't Young Master Fu be angry?
Fu Fengcheng frowned slightly, and asked, What are you doing here?
Xiao Yiran sighed in frustration, Fu Fengcheng, you are so boring. Okay, I do have a little problem. Tell me in another place?
Let's go.
A group of people went back to the courtyard of the second room, knowing that they had something to talk about, Mr. Leng and Mrs. Leng were served tea and left.
There were only three people left in the yard, and Xiao Yiran just removed the casual smile on his face and looked at Fu Fengcheng and said, I heard that your assassination a few days ago has something to do with the Long family?
Fu Fengcheng slightly raised his eyebrows and did not speak, Xiao Yiran said: Although no one said anything on the surface in the past two days, it has been spread all over the capital privately.
What? Leng Sa asked.
Xiao Yiran said: What else is there? It is said that the Long family sent people to assassinate Fu Fengcheng, and even what happened last year was brought to the Long family, saying that it failed to kill you that time last year, this time it was to kill the grass.
Leng Sa frowned and said, It spread so fast?
Xiao Yiran smiled and said: It's faster than I thought. Before I heard this statement, it had already been spread up and down. Fu Fengcheng, it seems that some people really don't like the Fu family and the Long family.
Fu Fengcheng said indifferently: Then what are you here for?
Xiao Yiran said: I came here just to have a close relationship with Governor Fu at the order of my father. This matter has nothing to do with our Xiao family. You know my father's character. He only wants the situation to be stable and doesn't want to see anything A sudden catastrophe.
Leng Sa sat beside Fu Fengcheng and said curiously: So, the royal family believes that this matter has nothing to do with the Long family?
Xiao Yiran said: Well... If it is possible that the Long family did what happened last year, it is absolutely impossible this time. Neither Long Dushuai nor Long Yue would do such a thing. Besides... even if Do it, it's done too carelessly. It's not like the style of those two, the intention to sow discord is too obvious.
Who does the third prince think is the most suspect?
Xiao Yiran smiled wryly, Sister-in-law, you are asking the wrong person about this.
why?
Don't you think that no matter who I say, it's like trying to sow discord? Xiao Yiran asked.
Leng Sa thought for a while and agreed.
Xiao Yiran's identity is really not suitable for expressing opinions on this matter, So, you are just here to convey a message for His Majesty the Emperor?
Xiao Yiran sighed, shrugged his shoulders and said, We people are only useful for this now.
