Xu Yin looked at the guilty butler and the old man whose cheeks were red and rouge due to drunkenness, and pinched her forehead with a headache.
“How about we help the old man go down to rest first? When he sobers up, we won’t need to ask him, and he will regret it himself.”
"No, I won't regret it!" The old man held the wine gourd and smiled earnestly at Xu Yinle, "I am very satisfied with your apprentice daughter-in-law. You speak softly, are considerate in dealing with things, and you are so beautiful. You are the perfect match for my unfilial disciple. Just... Hiccup, it’s settled! Come on! This is my meeting gift!”
As he spoke, he took out a jade pendant from his arms and threw it to Xu Yin, as if he had thrown away a burden.
After that, he lay down on the stone table and fell asleep.
Xu Yin: “…”
“Tsk! I said I searched so many places but couldn’t find this old guy, so I dared to come to your house.”
Si Kongjin suddenly appeared, startling Xu Yin.
This guy always shows up unexpectedly.
"Can you come in and out through the gate in the future?" Xu Yin reluctantly discussed with him, feeling that she, the master of the mansion, was so humble.
He immediately reacted, pointed to the sleeping old man, and said in disbelief: "Is he your master?"
So, is he the unfilial person the old man calls him?
This **** ape...fate!
"Hmm." Sikong Jin sat down on the stone bench to enjoy the cool air, picked up the wine gourd that the old man had laid on the table, shook it, and frowned in disgust, "How much did you drink? You still smell of wine."
"Let the old man go to sleep in the guest room. The sun will get stronger soon and it will be too hot here." Xu Yin said to the housekeeper, rubbed the jade pendant in her palm and handed it to Sikong, "This belongs to your master. When he wakes up, Please return it to his old man for me."
Sikong Jin looked at the jade pendant with a subtle expression and glanced at Xu Yin: "How could the old guy give you this jade pendant? What did he say to you?"
…”
…She didn’t dare to say it, for fear that he would go on a rampage.
The old housekeeper, on the other hand, was surprised at first and then happy when he saw Sikong Jin appear.
If the apprentice of Yushu Linfeng mentioned by the old man is Sikong Daxia, then this marriage is perfect!
First of all, Hero Sikong is handsome and elegant, and his martial arts skills are superb. With him by his side, the girl's safety is completely guaranteed. There is no need to recruit so many guards. Hero Sikong alone is enough.
Secondly, Hero Sikong is a person from the Jianghu. He is the Jade-faced Shura of Qianji Pavilion and serves as King Rui... Oh no, now it’s time to be called a saint. He has found his only heir. With this kind of relationship, it means that there is someone in the court. Who will be there in the future? Dare to bully a girl?
Thirdly, Sikong Daxia was adopted by his master since he was a child. He has no father or mother. His consent is equivalent to the consent of the whole family. After the girl gets married, there will be no ambiguous relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
After sorting out these things in an instant, the housekeeper said with a smile: "It turns out that Hero Sikong is the apprentice of Yushu Linfeng that the old gentleman said. The old gentleman betrothed you to my girl..."
“Pfft—” Sikong Jin just took a sip of tea and spat it out.
Even though he vaguely guessed what was going on when he saw the jade pendant, hearing the butler's words still made him choke on his tea and cough until his handsome face turned red.
He glared at the snoring old guy. He used to be drunk and only allowed him out as a favor, but now he was drunk and gave him away as a favor?
That day at Wanhua Village, I held her in my arms out of desperation. I didn't think much about it at the time, but afterwards, I dreamed for several nights that I was holding her slender waist, and the tip of my nose was filled with the fragrance from her body. It’s really terrible! He almost lost his virginity. What if the old guy didn't see his thoughts and gave her the jade pendant?
“Oh, Master, do you want me to marry a girl?” He pretended to be calm and picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"It's not marriage, it's not marriage." The housekeeper explained hurriedly, fearing that if it was too late, it would not be the uncle who came to the door, but the girl getting married. "My girl is planning to get married."
“Pfft—cough cough cough…”
Poor Sikong Jin choked for the second time.
Xu Yin raised her eyebrows: Her housekeeper is so down-to-earth.
Having finally stopped coughing, Sikong Jin glanced at Xu Yin with complicated eyes: "What kind of ecstasy soup did you give the old guy?"
Xu Yin looked innocent: "I didn't."
"The girl really doesn't have one. This old slave can testify." The housekeeper couldn't hide his excitement that his girl was about to have a good marriage that was difficult to find in heaven and earth. "The master of Sikong Daxia took the initiative to sign up his apprentice at the door of the house. The girl asked him to go to the guest room to rest, saying that he might regret it when he sobered up. The old man patted his chest and said he would never regret it. He also said that he was very satisfied with the girl, and then gave the girl this jade pendant..."
Sikong Jin; “…”
I want to wake up the old man from his deep sleep.
However, the token given by the Pavilion Master of Qianji Pavilion cannot be taken back before completing what he promised to do. Otherwise, it will be a slap in the face of the Pavilion Master himself and discredit the sect.
Sikong Jin sighed, put the ancestral jade pendant that represented his life-long events back into Xu Yin's hand, picked up the old guy, jumped up to the wall with a slight jump, and jumped into the air.
Just as he was about to use Qinggong to leave, he suddenly stopped and glanced at Xu Yin condescendingly, "Ahem, sorry, I forgot about it for a moment."
Immediately fell back to the ground and walked through the gate of Xu Mansion instead.
"Hero Sikong..." The housekeeper hurriedly caught up with him. On the one hand, he saw him off, but on the other hand, he wanted to finalize the marriage arrangements, but when he chased him out of the front yard, Sikong Jin was nowhere to be seen.
The housekeeper came back dejectedly: "Girl, do you think Hero Sikong is unwilling?"
Xu Yin lowered her eyes and played with the ancestral jade pendant in his mouth, but did not answer.
After that, Sikong Jin didn’t show up for many days in a row, and the old housekeeper became increasingly unsure.
In that room, Liao Guangtian, who was eyeing the formula of Xu's perfume, rolled his eyes and had an idea when he heard that the girl from the Xu family was not marrying and was looking for a son-in-law.
That night he went to the courtyard of one of the concubines’ rooms: “I remember that your natal family has a nephew who is old enough to get married?”
"Yes, sir. I am worried about him right now! I don't care about sneaking around on weekdays. A few days ago, I even imitated those uneducated people and ran into brothels. Now people for miles around know about it. My brother and sister-in-law asked me He proposed marriage to a matchmaker, but no girl from the family is willing to marry him, so I don’t know what to do!”
"Let him come to Luo City, sir, and I will introduce him to a good marriage."
Hearing this, the concubine was overjoyed: "Thank you, sir! I will send someone to pick him up right now."
Three days later, Liao Guangtian came to the Xu Mansion with a charming young man. He smiled and bowed his hands to the housekeeper: "Butler Xu, you are fine! Do you still remember Liao?"
“Are you...Liao Ji’s boss?”
"Exactly!" Liao Guangtian shook his fan and said in an approachable manner, "I heard that the house is busy with Miss Xu's marriage, so Liao has a suitable candidate here."
