Only this green, not disappointing the spring

It was a clear and cool autumn day, with not too many annoying mosquitoes and no scorching heat as before. The group had a great time in the zoo.

It was certainly inappropriate to stay overnight in the zoo, so when night fell, several people had to leave reluctantly.

The customs of the people in Da'an are quite open, and it would not cause any criticism for engaged young men and women to ride in the same carriage, so the two couples each took a carriage.

The little girl who was chattering non-stop just now suddenly became quiet. Xuanyuan Yan was a little uncomfortable for a moment and asked:

"What are you thinking about? Why are you suddenly silent?"

Shangguan Qingyue looked at the person sitting opposite her with some concern and said:

"Ayan, what do you think the Fourth Prince is going to do?

He didn't like Miss Yu at all, but he tried every means to marry her home. Isn't this just making things difficult for himself? He wouldn't destroy her if he couldn't get her, right? !

Since you are implicated, the other party will definitely not let it go. Have you thought about how to deal with this matter?"

Xuanyuan Yan took a hawthorn covered with icing sugar from the table in the carriage and put it in his mouth, squinting his eyes and enjoying it. After he finished eating, he said slowly:

"The sweet fruit made by Qingqing tastes great, sweet and sour and appetizing. It looks like there will be another delicious dessert in the mansion."

Shangguan Qingyue rolled her eyes at the other person in annoyance, and put the plate of frosted hawthorns and other desserts back into the secret compartment of the carriage.

"Ayan, you have already eaten a lot of sweets today, so don't eat any more. I have already asked Madam Wu to keep an eye on you. If you dare to eat anything secretly, she will send someone to send me a letter."

Xuanyuan Yan chuckled.

"You are controlling me like this now, will it be okay for me to marry you in the future?"

"Well, it will naturally get worse. If you regret it, it's not too late to regret it now, Ayan."

Shangguan Qingyue glanced at him sideways, crossed her arms and waited for his reaction. Humph, if he dared to hesitate, she would make him pay!

Xuanyuan Yan frowned immediately after hearing this, and with his long arms he pulled the girl into his arms. The little girl's scream was silenced before she could even come out.

Well, of course, it was blocked by the other person's lips.

Xuanyuan Yan originally wanted to leave after just one touch, but when he really touched the lips he had been thinking about day and night, how could he resist?

From the light touch at the beginning, it turned into a violent storm later, greedily sucking on the soft and delicate lips.

Even though the scent of silver dan grass was always lingering at his nose, he was unable to resist the temptation of the person in his arms.

Shangguan Qingyue felt her whole body trembling and her scalp numbing, and her hands, which were originally grabbing the other person's clothes, fell down weakly.

The last bit of her rationality told her to stop immediately, as the man had buried his entire head in her neck!

She raised her soft hand and reached for the man's side. Just as she pinched a piece of soft flesh and was about to twist it hard, she saw that the man suddenly tensed up all over and all movements stopped.

"Pfft~"

Shangguan Qingyue laughed and fell into the other's arms, lowering her voice and saying:

"Ayan, are you ticklish? Hahahaha..."

All the romantic thoughts disappeared at this moment. Xuanyuan Yan dotingly hugged the laughing person in his arms and said helplessly:

"Are you so happy to find out my weakness? If you keep laughing like that, you might get a stomachache."

When the little girl finally laughed enough, Xuanyuan Yan poured her a cup of warm water and handed it to her to moisten her throat.

Seeing that the other person's cheeks were flushed and his eyes were affectionate, not only that, but his lips were a little red and swollen, uh... there seemed to be a faint red mark on his neck.

He put his hand to his forehead with some regret, thinking quickly about how to deal with the situation in his mind.

If the two of them just go out like this without caring about anything, his future uncle will beat him to death!

So, after the group entered the city gate, the carriage that was originally supposed to go directly to Shangguan Mansion was temporarily changed to Shuiyunjian.

Shangguan Lan, who was completely unaware of the situation, went to Wan Mansion with his fiancée.

Xuanyuan Yan and Shangguan Qingyue went directly into the backyard of Shuiyunjian through the side door. After everything was packed up, Shangguan Qingyue finally remembered that someone had not answered her question yet.

So she gave him a reproachful look and said unhappily:

"Ayan, you haven't answered the question I asked you in the carriage! How are you going to deal with the Fourth Prince's matter?"

"When brothers quarrel, they naturally go to me to complain. Let me handle this matter, don't worry about it."

Xuanyuan Yan was not a male chauvinist who thought that women should not interfere in men's affairs. He simply did not want these dirty things to annoy his little girl.

Shangguan Qingyue was a carefree person, and she immediately put the matter behind her after hearing what the other party said. She was not good at intrigue and she was extremely disdainful of it.

Rather than wasting time on such things, she would rather go to the garden and trim the flowers.

Three days later, the Fourth Prince's residence sent someone to the Yu Mansion to propose marriage. Although there was nothing wrong with the steward's etiquette, the slight hint of disrespect that shone through it could not be concealed.

Except for Yu Jiaojiao, all the masters in the mansion have arrived, including Yu Haochu, the eldest son of the Yu family.

"Our Highness was very sad to hear about Miss Yu's situation, and begged Concubine Rou for three whole days before she agreed to come to your house to propose marriage.

However, although our Highness's feelings towards Miss Yu have not changed, but... after all, Miss Yu's reputation is now ruined, and she can only be a concubine.

I hope the old man can understand our Highness's painstaking efforts."

After the manager finished speaking, he looked at everyone leisurely, just waiting for the other party to thank him profusely and agree to the marriage so that he could go back and report.

But unexpectedly, all he got was a loud shout from the old priest.

"What nonsense! Our Yu family is not so poor that we have to beg for mercy. We do not need charity from His Highness the Fourth Prince!

I will never let my granddaughter, whom I have carefully nurtured, become someone's concubine! This steward, please take your things and leave immediately. I'm sorry that I won't entertain you!"

Mrs. Yu was also very angry after hearing this, but she had to admit that her youngest daughter's reputation was ruined, and she was somewhat dissatisfied with her father-in-law's autocratic behavior.

She is Jiaojiao's biological mother. Even if she wants to reject this marriage, she should discuss it with her in advance, right? So she couldn't help but say:

"Father..."

"What else can I say, mother? He came to my house to insult my sister. If I don't send him away, do I have to thank him profusely?!

Even if Jiaojiao can't get married, I, as her brother, can take good care of her for the rest of her life..."

Yu Haochu was so angry that he spoke without restraint. However, before he could finish his words, he was suddenly interrupted by an anxious girl's voice:

"Brother, what are you talking about? I don't want to be an old sister-in-law who is unwanted by everyone for the rest of my life!"

Yu Jiaojiao came jogging all the way. When she came closer, her hair was disheveled and her forehead was covered with tiny beads of sweat.

She looked around, walked to Madam Yu with grievance, pulled her sleeve and whispered:

"Mother, the Fourth Prince is not such a person. My daughter, after all, has ruined her reputation. The Fourth Prince does not mind coming to the mansion to propose marriage, so how can we drive him out?"

"Little sister! How can you say such a thing?!"

The old priest was furious. He pointed at his beloved granddaughter with a shaking hand and said with deep sorrow:

"Jiaojiao, have you forgotten all those sage books you read in the past? How can you be so shameless?!"

Yu Jiaojiao's face flushed, but she still straightened her back unconvinced and retorted:

"Grandfather, you forced your granddaughter to read those books in the past. Women can't take the imperial examinations to become officials, so what's the point of reading those books by sages?

Granddaughter, granddaughter is willing to marry the Fourth Prince, even if it is as a concubine! I hope grandfather will grant your wish!"

After saying that, she knelt down directly, her eyes full of determination.
