Ye Guo: Let’s just say that the male and female protagonists cannot be separated, and the law of the main line is true.

Ye Guo's mind was spinning rapidly, and the next second he opened his eyes wide in surprise: "You know him? Is he really from the Leiyang Marquis's Mansion?"

Although he didn't know where her guess came from, he still spoke matter-of-factly, "I didn't know before, but now I know."

Ye Guo: "Actually, I was just guessing."

Ye Xuan snorted and laughed, "If you hadn't come, I would probably be able to tell you whether he really came from the Leiyang Marquis's Mansion."

"So, I had a peaceful tea?"

The latter held the teacup and nodded without hesitation.

Ye Guo: That’s it…

"Don't blame me. I reminded you to take care of this matter, but you just walked away without caring."

"Let's take a step back and say that even though I don't want to get engaged, and this marriage hasn't happened to her yet, she must hate me to death. What do you think of me?"

She did remind me.

But when it comes to the unfinished marriage, Ye Xuan couldn't help but frowning.

"Your parents are alive, your eldest brother is ambitious, your second brother is a scholar, your brothers and sisters-in-law are friendly and united, and your nephews and nieces are all healthy and can be trained."

"The most important thing is that you are lively, innocent and cheerful, and you grew up in love. I want to ask you, is there any other girl in the village who is spoiled by her family and would come and yell at me?"

Ye Guo: The mystery of the inexplicable marriage was suddenly revealed, it turns out that the whole family was helpful.

"So whether I save the person or not, this marriage is mine?" Ye Guo continued unwillingly.

Ye Xuan quickly shook his head, "We still have to save him. If the Ashu people are gone, how can we get married?"

Ye Guo: ...

Seeing someone disappear without even saying hello, he was really worried about Ashu's situation.

Less than a cup of tea after Ye Guo left, Zhou Jingwen came and closed the door on his own initiative.

The first thing he said after sitting down was: "Brother Ye, I want to get engaged to Ye An, please help me."

"How do you want me to help?"

At this moment, Ye Xuan's mind was in a thousand turns, and then he spread his hands helplessly, "You heard what she said, I am the one who wants to cry out for injustice."

When Ye An came back yesterday, he was soaking wet. He could hide it from others but not from his sweetheart.

He is extremely smart, and if you ask him a few more questions indirectly, the truth will naturally become clear.

This is also the reason why he was able to rescue people in the first place.

However, he was not willing to use this to threaten her and arrange the marriage.

"You...pretend to secretly tell her that I am from the Imperial City, and she will agree to get engaged to me."

"And then? If you really want to marry her, why don't you dare tell her your true identity?"

Ye Xuan's position as an editor in the Hanlin Academy was not gained on impulse, and every sentence he spoke went straight to the point.

What's more, Zhou Jingwen and him had only met at a few poetry gatherings in the imperial city, and they didn't know each other's background.

He was from the Imperial City... He wasn't lying. But Ye An was also one of his people after all, and if he didn't know the details, the little girl might come back to ask him later.

He really didn't know how to answer.

Ye Xuan's question made Zhou Jingwen feel a little embarrassed.

He couldn't tell him directly that he had secretly run away from home because he found out that he didn't seem to be his parents' biological son.

He dared not tell anyone about this matter concerning his own background until it was truly found out.

"I can only promise you that I will never let her down." Zhou Jingwen promised.

Ye Xuan lowered his head to drink tea, and did not look at him. Instead, he was evaluating: Zhou Jingwen was a man he had met before, a man of great talent, and now that he was in such a state, with his strength, things would definitely take a new turn.

He will soar to fame one day, and if Ye An misses the opportunity because of his momentary hesitation, it will be his fault.

"What guarantee can you give?" Ye Xuan looked at him steadily and decided to give it a try. If it doesn't work, he will try to find one for Ye An in the imperial city.

Zhou Jingwen was very excited to see that he agreed so easily, "If I can get engaged to her this time, I will register her as a resident."

"Is this true?" Ye Xuan was so shocked that he almost stood up.

Ye An is so good? How could he agree to marry into his family?

In the Daqing Dynasty, when a woman married into the wife's family, all the property and children belonged to the head of the household, and the main goal was to keep a clean record.

Little did they know that Zhou Jingwen left home in such a hurry that he didn't bring his household registration with him. If he wanted to take the imperial examination now, he could only apply for a new one, but he wanted to keep it a secret from his family, so he could only marry into the wife's family.

He just wanted to solve the problem at hand.

Ye Xuan nodded readily.

"Then remember what you said. I will always keep an eye on it."

Zhou Jingwen nodded, but then spoke again with embarrassment, "I have a small request. Xiao An is kind-hearted and thought I had lost my memory, so I... hope you don't expose it."

Ye Xuan: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else about our meeting now. But if Ye An wants to believe it completely, you still need to cooperate and put on a show for her."

If someone knows it in advance, it is none of his business at all.

"The clan meeting will be held soon, so you should leave quickly. I will ask someone to invite Ye An over and talk to her alone." Then he gave a detailed introduction on how to perform the show afterwards.

Ye An had something he wanted.

Zhou Jingwen has someone he loves.

So this matter was handled more smoothly than expected.

When Ye An went out, he was imagining his future happy life, but he didn't expect to meet his aunt in the courtyard of the ancestral hall.

"You are here to attend the clan meeting on behalf of your family? They really love you." Ye An's eyes were full of jealousy.

Ye Guo pretended not to hear and said with a half-smile: "You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. You should understand this principle better than me."

Ye An smiled, his eyes full of pride, "But aunt, I won!"

"You won? You want to get engaged to the book boy from that day? The situation was urgent that day, and you didn't tell me yet. How did you know that they wanted to propose to me?"

Ye An thought she would get angry after hearing this, but she didn't. She just glanced at Ye Guo coldly, then quickly looked away, "You really didn't agree to the marriage?"

"I would like to agree, but you've already jumped into the river. Even if I agree, I will regret it." Ye Guo said naturally, without any awareness of lying.

"So... did you agree or not?" Ye An's voice suddenly lost control, and then he fell silent.

Ye Guo's gaze naturally turned to the past.

Sitting in the yard was the young man Zhou Jingwen. Ye Xuan, on the other hand, stood respectfully opposite him, nodding from time to time.

Ye Guo thought that Ye Xuan's acting skills were worthy of an Oscar.

But I am also very happy standing in the melon field from this first-person perspective!

She grabbed the heroine and asked, "Who is Ping An? Don't forget, I am your aunt."

A flash of rage flashed across Ye An's eyes.

Here it is again.

She was tired of hearing it since she was a child.

Every time my sister-in-law wants to snatch something, she will say this unreasonable remark.

Does she want to snatch Ping An again this time?

She won't be given a chance.
