Chapter 126
Jinnian immediately smiled and said, "I will tell you, Grandma Big Young is a good person, right?"
Mama Rong nodded and then said seriously: "Jin'er, don't always run out soon."
"That imperial envoy is too big, we can't afford to offend."
Jinnian said with a puzzled look: "Auntie, what is his background?"
Mama Rong looked solemn, "Don't ask, you'll just listen to your aunt."
...
The people do not know what the imperial envoy is, but the topic of the imperial envoy has never stopped.
Ye Xiaolou was walking on the road in a carriage, and he could still hear everyone's discussion.
"I heard that another one died yesterday."
"Oh, is it true?"
"There is still a false statement. I am unwilling to be humiliated and killed by hitting my head."
"Tsk tsk, it's such a sin."
"That's not the case, hey, have you heard of it? The imperial envoy fell in love with the girl from Lord Qiu's mansion and wanted to take her back as a concubine."
"Ah? Be a concubine? Then he is also an official lady, right?"
"Tsk, what's wrong with the lady of the official family? The daughter of this ninth-rank official is a high-ranking official in our eyes, but in the eyes of the imperial envoy, he is a little Luo Luo."
"That Qiu Laohu is really not an individual. Bah, I heard that he has agreed."
"Hey, don't talk nonsense. When did you agree? Isn't it okay at all?"
"Hey, this is not a matter of time. It's just reservedness. It's better to have more benefits."
"Isn't this selling women for honor?"
"Who said no?"
...
As everyone talked about it, Ye Xiaolou finally knew why Zhu Ying had made an appointment with him.
When Ye Xiaolou thought of the imperial envoy hitting Qiu Jing, his face turned bad.
The girl Qiu Jing was as quiet and polite as her name. When she thought of being a concubine for the fat-headed and big-eared imperial envoy, Ye Xiaolou was full of anger.
My face was cold all the way.
Soon the carriage arrived at the destination Ximingsi.
This is a very famous temple in the west of the city, with incense in full bloom.
However, today is neither the first day of the lunar month nor the fifteenth day, so there are relatively few people.
After the three of them gathered together, they put a pillar of fragrance in front of the Bodhisattva, and then went to the pavilion behind the temple.
After the maids cleaned up the pavilion, they stepped aside.
Zhu Ying pouted, held the tea bowl hard, and said with an unhappy look: "Sister Ye, have you heard of it?"
Ye Xiaolou nodded lightly and said, "I heard something on the way here. What's going on?"
After hearing this, Zhu Ying said angrily: "Isn't that old pervert yet?"
"Since he came, the women who were arrested had been in great danger and were tortured to death several times. Sister Qiu's father, Lord Qiu, was quite angry about this, and the people also complained."
"So I told him, but the old man was not ashamed and shamelessly wanted to take Sister Qiu as his concubine."
When Ye Xiaolou heard this, he looked at Qiu Jing, who was expressionless and dull, and frowned, "What? Lord Qiu didn't agree, right?"
Zhu Ying said angrily: "Of course I didn't agree, but the other party's sloppy proposal, I have never seen such a shameless person."
"Bah, he's still an imperial envoy, he's worthy."
"If you want me to tell me, I should go and sue him, something."
Before he could finish speaking, Qiu Jing glanced at her and said weakly: "Okay, A Ying."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhu Ying turned around in anger, and Ye Xiaolou held the tea bowl and looked at Qiu Jing at the bottom of her head, "It's not a problem to always pester this way, is there no other way?"
Zhu Ying immediately said after hearing this: "Why don't there?"
"As long as Sister Qiu is married now, I don't believe that the old man is not ashamed to come and steal people."
Ye Xiaolou frowned. Although it was too hasty to get married so urgently, it seemed like a way out compared to marrying the imperial envoy as a concubine. The two things were the least harmful.
So he said, "But under the pressure of the imperial envoy, no one wants to?"
Zhu Ying immediately argued: "Who said that?"
"If others don't want to, our Zhu family will do it too."
"Sister Qiu and my brother are childhood sweethearts. Both families are about to discuss marriage, but this happened suddenly."
"My Zhu family is not a person who is afraid of trouble. My brother is also famous, but Sister Qiu disagrees."
As a result, Qiu Jing's eyes turned red as soon as they finished speaking.
"Aying, I've told you many times, don't talk about this anymore."
After saying that, tears fell down.
The two hurried over to comfort her, and Ye Xiaolou understood now.
No wonder Qiu Jing and Zhu Ying are so close, it turns out that there is such a relationship.
Zhu Ying said with a depressed look when she saw this: "Sister Qiu, what are you afraid of?"
"My brother already knows about this, and he agrees."
As soon as these words fell, Qiu Jing burst into tears even more fiercely.
Zhu Ying looked at a loss, then grabbed Ye Xiaolou's hand and said anxiously: "Sister Ye, what's going on with Sister Qiu?"
"She has liked my brother for a long time, and I would like her to marry into our family to be my sister-in-law. Originally, our family planned to wait for Jinqiu and my brother to pass the imperial examination and go to the Qiu family to propose marriage, but unexpectedly this happened."
"Aren't you happy to get engaged in advance now? Why did Sister Qiu disagree?"
"Sister Ye, please help me persuade her."
Ye Xiaolou sighed, "This is not something that can be done by persuading me." Zhu Ying still thought things too simple."
So he nodded to her and said, "Okay, please ask the maid to make some water first, and the makeup is so terrible."
Zhu Ying immediately said, "Okay, okay, I'll go now, Sister Ye, then I'll ask you here."
After saying that, he looked at Qiu Jing helplessly and ordered the maid with a depressed look on his face.
She really didn't understand. This was obviously a good thing, why didn't she want to?
After Zhu Ying took the maid away, the pavilion was left [ ]. Ye Xiaolou came to her side and patted her forefather and said, "Is it better?"
Qiu Jing wiped her tears with a veil and said reluctantly: "I'll let you laugh at me."
Ye Xiaolou shook his head, "What's the matter, my sister."
"Stop crying, it's all gone."
Qiu Jing laughed at herself, "I said Aying had something to hide from me, so why did she bring me to incense and relax? It turned out that she had made you come out as a lobbyist."
Ye Xiaolou smiled awkwardly, "I only found out about you today."
"Are you afraid of implicating the Zhu family?"
As soon as these words fell, Qiu Jing's tears seemed to burst into tears. She swallowed even more and said with a wry smile: "Aying is still young, she doesn't understand, and they don't know how terrible the imperial envoy is."
"I can't harm the Zhu family."
"I can't harm my cousin."
"I---"
She couldn't continue talking about this, and she was crying and thrusting.
Who can understand the pain in her heart?
Don't she want to marry her cousin? She dreams.
