There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 1124

[Chapter 1123, Princess Chun’an who was biased by the script 4]

After returning from the racetrack, Xiao Keyan felt a little uncomfortable, and asked Dong Jingyi: “I haven’t been away from Xiliang for a few years, why did I come back this time?” , I found that some people here are really thick-skinned.”

Dong Jingyi paused first, then smiled, and asked tentatively: “But did someone strike up a conversation with you at the racetrack?”

Xiao Ke’s face showed surprise: ” How do you know? Did you see it?”

Dong Jingyi smiled mysteriously: “I didn’t see it, but I can imagine it. The racecourse is not open to the public now, and most of the people who can enter now are soldiers from the surrounding areas. Wife is difficult, you should know this, right?”

Xiao Keyan nodded: “Yes, my father had a lot of headaches in order to solve this problem, and he was building a military residential area for the soldiers, and he tried his best to get it from other places. It took a lot of effort to recruit and encourage women to come here.”

Dong Jingyi: “The various measures promulgated by the prince have indeed allowed many soldiers to marry wives, but there are too many soldiers on the border, and the problem of difficulty in marrying wives remains. Exist.”

“One woman begs for more than one family, this kind of situation is very common in various military towns.”

“In other places, marrying a wife is mostly the order of the parents, but for soldiers in Xiliang, there are more girls and boys. , the competition is too great, in order to increase their own advantages, many general men will take the initiative to show their favor to the girl they like.”

“This kind of situation is Meng Lang’s move in other places, but the situation in Xiliang is special. If there is someone I offended you, so don’t take it to heart, after all, who told you to be so attractive.”

Xiao Keyan smiled and glanced at Dong Jingyi, and after listening to her explanation, did the anger in her heart dissipate? Little, asked curiously: “Have you ever met a man who directly showed his love to you?”

Dong Jingyi smiled shyly: “I often go out with my father and elder brother, and I will definitely meet some.”

Xiao Keyan immediately He asked with a smile, “Then do you like anything?”

Although Dong Jingyi was a little shy, she still said generously: “Of course I am very happy to be liked, but I still prefer gentle and refined men to enthusiastic and unrestrained general men.”

Xiao Keyan After hearing this, my heart was moved.

It does seem to be a little bit gratifying to be liked.

At this moment, the servant girl came into the room and reported: “Girl, there are guests at home, Madam asked you to meet them.”

Dong Jingyi quickly looked at Xiao Keyan: “Together?”

Xiao Keyan shook her head: “Forget it, Just let me take a break for a while, hide from socializing for a few days, and go by yourself!”

Seeing this, Dong Jingyi didn’t persuade her too much, since the status of a princess is here, not everyone can see it, so she redressed her face with a smile , before turning around and going to the main courtyard.

In order not to appear too abrupt, Madam Yuan specially invited several well-connected wives to come to the Dong Mansion. When Dong Jingyi came, Madam Yuan and Miss Yuan all looked over.

Dong Jingyi greeted the wives present in a graceful manner, and then warmly entertained the girls in the room.

Madam Yuan secretly looked at Dong Jingyi, and the satisfaction in her eyes became more and more intense. Later, in the chat with Madam Dong, she praised Dong Jingyi from time to time, and learned a lot about Dong Jingyi.

It wasn’t until mid-afternoon that the ladies left.

Dong Jingyi returned to her yard, and saw Xiao Keyan lying on the bed in front of the window, eating fruit while flipping through the storybook, not to mention how comfortable she was.

Seeing her coming back, Xiao Keyan smiled and said, “End of socializing?”

Dong Jingyi nodded, and looked at Xiao Keyan enviously: “I also want to be like you. I want to see people and see them, and I can do whatever I want and be free.”

Xiao Keyan laughed: “Look at what you said, who in the world can really do whatever they want? That is, at your house, I can hide for a few days of leisure. In normal times, I don’t have to socialize with my mother, but I have a princess You can refuse to meet people because of your title, but most of the time, you have to meet when you should.”

Dong Jingyi thought about it too, and smiled as she talked about today’s visitor: “General Yuan is superior to my father, so it stands to reason that we should be the ones who came to visit me, but I didn’t expect Mrs. Yuan to bring Miss Yuan today. It really surprised me to come here.”

Xiao Keyan paused: “The Yuan family?”

Dong Jingyi nodded: “Madam Yuan is very easy-going, Miss Yuan is also very straightforward, unlike some wives who fight against each other. Being in a high position, I always like to put on an air of superiority.”

Xiao Keyan had never met anyone before, so she didn’t express her opinion, and listened silently to Dong Jingyi’s continuation.

During dinner at night, Mrs. Dong talked about Mrs. Yuan’s visit at the dinner table.

When Dong Zhenghua heard this, he immediately smiled and said, “What a coincidence, I also met Mr. Yuan at the racetrack today, and ran a few laps with him.” As he

spoke, he showed admiration.

“Sure enough, he is worthy of being a general. Mr. Yuan’s riding and shooting skills are very good.”

Dong Yuanxuan said: “Yuan Yonghao has followed General Yuan to practice in the barracks since he was a child. As soon as he reaches the championship, he can take charge of himself and lead the patrol The Twelfth Army is in town, if you don’t have any real skills, how can you hold down your soldiers.”

As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Keyan with a smile.

“Some people say that he has the demeanor of your father when he was young.”

Xiao Keyan was full of disbelief: “Just that guy, can he compare with my father?”

Dong Zhenghua smiled and said: “It’s not exaggerating. The army’s talents are indeed outstanding. The Xiliang cavalry was trained by the prince himself. Among the border guards, the cavalry is notoriously a stabbing soldier. They are strong and arrogant. Not everyone can win their approval.

” The commander of the cavalry is Mr. Yuan, so it can be seen that his ability is very powerful. By the way, you should have seen him, right?”

Xiao Keyan nodded and did not speak.

Dong Jingyi smiled and said, “I’ve seen it more than once. When I went to the assembly square, I saw it once. Later, I saw it once in Ganzhou Restaurant, when the merchants from the Western Regions made trouble.”

“Don’t tell me, his skills are really good. In the arena of the assembly square, he turned everything over by himself. When the merchants from the Western Regions made trouble, he was the one who made the move, so the second floor of the restaurant was not affected.” As he

said, he looked at Xiao Keyan.

“Are you right, Ke Yan?”

Xiao Keyan said ‘Oh’: “It’s about the same.”

Mrs. Dong: “I heard that the Yuan family seems to want to marry the Ren family?”

Dong Jingyi quickly interjected: “It should be Keyan and I have seen with our own eyes Mr. Yuan fight with Mr. Cao for Miss Ren. However, Mr. Cao also likes Mrs. Ren, so it’s not certain who will marry Mrs. Ren in the end.”

Mrs. Dong is very dissatisfied with these things. Dare to be interested, interrupted: “Okay, don’t worry about other people’s affairs, eat well.”

Yuan Fu.

“Mother, have you seen Miss Dong?”

Yuan Yonghao looked at Mrs. Yuan expectantly.

Mrs. Yuan squinted at her son: “Look, you are in a hurry.”

Yuan Yonghao smiled, and stood behind Mrs. Yuan attentively to help her beat her shoulders: “There are hundreds of girls in the family, Miss Dong is so kind, isn’t my son afraid of that?” Has your daughter-in-law been preempted by others?”

Mrs. Yuan glared at her son: “I haven’t written the horoscope yet, you shut your mouth tightly, the reputation of the girl’s family is the most important thing.”

Yuan Yonghao nodded again and again: ” What mother said is, isn’t the son talking to you now?”

Madam Yuan looked at the eager son, a little amused: “In the past, when the family wanted you to get married early, you always pushed back and forth, but this time you are very anxious.”

Yuan Yonghao smiled and said nothing, didn’t he meet someone he liked before, so he was not in a hurry, but now that he met Miss Dong who made his heart beat, of course he wanted to marry and go home early.

“Mother, when are you going to propose marriage?”

Mrs. Yuan really laughed angrily: “Jingui, a girl from an official family, has a procedure for asking for a marriage. Three matchmakers and six employments are indispensable. In addition, your father and Dong Zhifu are both officials in Xiliang. Before the matchmaker comes, Your father and I have to go to the door to find out in person.”

Yuan Yonghao frowned: “Why do you have to go to such trouble?”

Mrs. Yuan looked at her son who was suddenly stupid, and sighed: “If you like someone, he must marry For you? In order not to embarrass the two families in the future, we must first check out the rumors. Once the matchmaker comes to the door and is rejected, then our family will not be very good-looking.”

Yuan Yonghao’s heart tightened, and he looked at it nervously . Mrs. Yuan: “Would the Dong family disagree?” As she said that, she quickly grabbed Mrs. Yuan’s hand, “Mother, you have to help your son. My son is not married to Mrs. Dong.”

Seeing her son’s nervous look, Mrs. Yuan frowned. He frowned: “You’ve only met Miss Dong a few times, why don’t you marry her?”

Yuan Yonghao recalled the few times he met Xiao Keyan, with a sweet smile in his eyes: “Isn’t it? I’ve seen her a few times, but every time I see her, I feel extremely happy in my heart, I want to see her smile, I want to see her pay attention to me.”

Mrs. Yuan stared blankly at her son, seeing the seriousness in his eyes, and her heart skipped a beat.

She was both delighted and surprised by her son’s enlightenment.

The happy thing is that my son is moved, and the family will soon be able to add children; to my surprise, my son seems to be stuck!

Their family is good, but what if the Dong family disagrees?

Wouldn’t the son be hurt at that time?

When she was not enlightened, she made a detour towards the girl; when she was enlightened, she immediately fell into it. Madam Yuan really didn’t know if it was good or not?

That night, Mrs. Yuan told General Yuan about her son.

General Yuan was silent for a moment: “The Dong family is a good marriage. I happen to be free in a couple of days. Let’s visit the door to find out.” The

son finally fell in love with a girl, and the girl was also satisfactory to them. Naturally, we must try our best to perfect our son.

“Why is the Yuan family here again?”

Dong Jingyi looked at the maid who came to report in surprise.

Maid: “This time not only Mrs. Yuan is here, but General Yuan is also here.”

Dong Jingyi looked at Xiao Keyan, and speculated: “It should be for the horse racing meeting.”

Dong Yuanxuan is the prefect of Ganzhou, Naturally, he was in charge of the horse race meeting, but the participants were mainly soldiers. General Yuan, as the general of Xiliang, came to inquire about the horse race meeting at this time, which was also reasonable.

“Just what did you ask me to do?”

Xiao Keyan: “You’ll know if you go over and have a look.”   Dong

Jingyi nodded, “Well, I’ll come back as soon as I go.”

Ke Yan thought for a while, and called the servant girl: “You follow and have a look, and come back and tell me when you hear the news.” The

servant girl blessed her body, and hurriedly followed, and after about two cups of tea, the servant girl came back: “Princess, my servant has found out.”

Xiao Keyan asked quickly: “Tell me, what are the Yuan family here for?”

Maid: “Princess, the Yuan family is here to propose marriage.”

“What?!” Xiao Keyan was shocked and confused. Unexpectedly: “Who is proposing marriage to whom?

” Maid: “Master Yuan proposed marriage to Miss Dong.”

Xiao Keyan frowned: “Didn’t that guy like the number one beauty in Xiliang?” Playful big radish!

Let’s not talk about that girl, that guy had teased her at the racecourse before, but now he turned around and asked Jing Yi to marry him, this person’s character is really bad.

Fortunately, Uncle Dong and the others said that he has the demeanor of her father when he was young.

At this moment, Dong Jingyi came back with a blushing face.

Seeing Xiao Keyan, she hurried forward: “Why did the Yuan family come to propose marriage suddenly?”

Dong Jingyi corrected: “It’s not a marriage proposal. It’s just General Yuan and Madam Yuan who came here today to talk about it. It’s not considered a marriage proposal.”

“Grandma and I were as surprised by Yuan’s sudden visit.” Saying that, she looked at Xiao Ke Yan, “Mr. Yuan fought with Mr. Cao for Miss Ren. You and I saw it with our own eyes. It is impossible to cheat. Why did you suddenly come to propose marriage to me?”

“There must be a reason!” Xiao Keyan thought Thinking about it, he recruited the maids: “Go out and find out what happened to the Ren family and the Cao family these days.” The

maids went down under orders and didn’t come back until mid-afternoon.

Both Xiao Keyan and Dong Jingyi watched: “Tell me, did you find out anything?” The servant girl

: “Nothing happened to the Ren family and the Cao family these days, but Mrs. Ren and Mrs. Cao often travel together. See, Miss Ren and Mr. Cao are always in pairs.”

After hearing this, Xiao Keyan showed such an expression on his face, and then looked at Dong Jingyi with sympathy on his face: “Based on the many years I have been reading scripts, Experience, Jingyi, you must have been treated as a backup girl by Mr. Yuan.”

Dong Jingyi let out an ‘ah’, her face full of bewilderment.

Xiao Keyan: “Listen, let me explain to you in detail.”

“If Miss Ren is the heroine in the storybook, then Mr. Yuan is a domineering and rich male supporting role. The soft and weak Bai Yueguang that you can’t ask for in your heart, and you are the right wife, the wife that your family asks to marry.”

“Before I said that the Ren family was going to marry the Yuan family, I felt something was wrong. Think about it, the Yuan family is from Xiliang The highest military officer, the Ren family is the highest civil official in Xiliang, and the marriage of these two families is definitely not what the emperor wishes to see.”

“As long as the heads of the Yuan family and the Ren family have brains, they will not agree to this matter.”

“And your family Well, Uncle Dong’s abilities are obvious to all, and coupled with his relationship with our family, he is definitely an excellent in-law.”

“Since Mr. Yuan was able to subdue the Xiliang cavalry, it can be seen that he is not an idiot. He should know about his own affairs, so when he learned that Miss Ren and Mr. Cao were married, he was so angry that he lost his mind and was beaten by his family. Forced, and then there is today’s marriage proposal.”

“There is another possibility, that is, Mr. Yuan didn’t know that General Yuan and Mrs. Yuan came to Dong’s house to propose marriage for him.”

“No matter what the possibility is, as the female partner You will not end well.”

“Do you think what I said is reasonable?”

Dong Jingyi nodded straight: “Ke Yan, you are so right, I think about it carefully, things may really be like yours. That’s what you said.” As he said, he stomped his feet.

“The Yuan family is really too much. I don’t want to be the son of that Laoshi. Thank God, grandma and the others will definitely not agree to the Yuan family.”

Now it was Xiao Keyan’s turn to be surprised: “Why didn’t you agree? I think Uncle Dong Brother Dong thinks highly of Mr. Yuan, and to be honest, the lintel of the Yuan family is pretty good.”

Dong Jingyi suddenly became shy, and turned sideways in embarrassment.

Seeing Xiao Keyan, she became more and more curious: “What’s the matter?”

Dong Jingyi looked at Xiao Keyan: “I tell you, you are not allowed to go out and talk nonsense.”

Xiao Keyan: “How strict is my mouth? , you still don’t know?”

Dong Jingyi whispered, “I’ve already engaged in a kiss.”

Xiao Keyan said in surprise, “Ah”: “When did it happen? Whose son?”

Dong Jing Yi blushed a little: “The one you know is your third aunt’s eldest son, your cousin Xue!”

Xiao Keyan was stunned: “Big cousin Xue?!”

Dong Jingyi nodded: “Uncle Xue three years ago When I was transferred from Xiliang, Aunt Xue and Aunt Xue came to my house to exchange tokens.”

Xiao Keyan came back to her senses: “I don’t know anything about this, and neither does my mother, but you guys are keeping it a secret.”

Dong Jingyi hurriedly said: “It’s not intentional to hide it, it’s just that the prince and concubine haven’t been in Xiliang these years, so we can’t take the initiative to talk about it.”

Xiao Keyan smiled: “Cousin Xue is very knowledgeable, and he really deserves to be a gentleman A word.” As she spoke, she looked at Dong Jingyi jokingly, “You have a good eye!”

Dong Jingyi was too ashamed: “Don’t laugh at me.”

Xiao Keyan smiled even more happily, and Dong Jingyi, who was in a hurry, Pretending to hit her, the two immediately had a quarrel.
