Chapter 257: The Matchmaker
Chapter 257: The Matchmaker
Thick smoke was billowing from the bandit stronghold, and the fire was rising into the sky with the help of the mountain wind. The two strongholds on the hillside were full of bandits running around, and no one cared about the people imprisoned in the cages.
Sister Feng carried Wang Luanhe on her back and said:
"excuse me."
He reached out, untied his belt, and tied Wang Luanhe to his back.
Wang Luanhe was worried that neither of them could escape, so he tried to persuade Sister Feng to let him go. The clever boy in the cage said:
"I can run with Uncle Wang on my back."
Fengjie didn't have time to discuss with him. She carried Wang Luanhe on her back and went down the hillside along the route she had chosen.
The three people behind him hurriedly ran for a while, and then the two adults couldn't run anymore and fell down.
Sister Feng took off her spare water bag and threw it to the two of them. She then took out a dry biscuit from her arms and threw it over.
He turned around and continued to run into the dense forest. The child behind him kept following him breathlessly, falling further and further behind, until he could run no longer. The boy shouted: "Uncle Wang, Uncle Wang, wait for me, wait for me..."
Wang Luanhe patted Sister Feng on the back as a reminder. Sister Feng knew that this was not the time to wait for anyone, but she still stopped. The boy followed her, panting rapidly.
Sister Feng made a mark on a nearby tree, and headed towards Nanhe County along the ridge according to the direction she had determined.
The three of them had been circling the forest for 20 days. During these days, Sister Feng had been carrying the weak and feverish Wang Luanhe on her back. When Sister Feng came following the signs, she saw three exhausted people...
Wang Luanhe still remembers that, thanks to the young lady who had set up Tai Sheng Rice Shops in all the counties across the country, several people entered Nanhe County and went straight to the rice shop.
When Wang Luanhe took out the Wang family emblem from the sole of his shoe, the shopkeeper and the clerk of Taisheng Rice Shop hurried over and invited the few people into the backyard...
If it weren't for Sister Feng's persistence at that time, if it weren't for Sister Feng's risking her life to save him, if it weren't for Sister Feng carrying him on her back for more than twenty days to survive in the forest, there would be no Wang Luanhe today!
Wang Jinyi understood all these, but Wang Jinyi understood one thing more clearly: Sister Feng was not her servant, nor was she a slave to whom she had signed a contract. She was sent by the Ouyang family!
What should I do? I need to ask Sister Feng if she is interested, and then ask Grandfather if it is feasible. If both are possible, I need to ask the Patriarch of the Ouyang Family...
What did you mean? It was obviously a good thing, but now it has become extremely troublesome. Since this is Wang Luanhe's intention, I should
Make good things happen.
Wang Jinyi nodded meaningfully, "I need to ask Sister Feng for her opinion first. If she doesn't have any interest in you..."
When Wang Jinyi said this, he looked up at Wang Luanhe. His voice was a little drawn out at the end, and his attitude of seeking opinions was obvious.
Wang Lanhe didn't seem to have thought of this possibility. After being distracted for a moment, he calmed down and said:
"Miss, if your maidservant doesn't want to, I won't force her, but I don't want to get married for the time being..."
Wang Jinyi thought: You still want to force her? Even I can't force her! How many people can force her? !
But thinking about it, I am totally redundant. This time, I was kind enough to act as a matchmaker, but Wen Bai directly refused. Now it seems that Wang Luanhe's plan is in jeopardy.
Next up is Wang Jin, and who knows what trouble he will cause.
When Wang Dongbei comes back, I will ask him what he thinks.
Now Fuling, Baizhu and Qingyu are all old, and I don’t know why they, the managers, don’t like these capable girls?
Wang Jinyi thought: They are all really blind!
I feel it’s not worth it for several girls, but marriage is a lifelong event after all, it should be based on mutual consent. After all, I am just a bystander and cannot force a match!
When Wang Luanhe heard the young lady say that Sister Feng might not agree, his expression became serious and he returned to his usual strict steward demeanor.
People always say that lust can blind one's mind, and it seems to be somewhat true. When Wang Luanhe first came in, he seemed to be mentally retarded, but now that he heard that the girl had no interest in him, after he calmed down, his IQ suddenly took over again.
"Wang Luanhe, I think whether your parents and family are alive or not, you should get married. This way, you will have someone who understands you and takes care of you, and it will also give peace of mind to your parents who are far away. You should think positively!"
Alas! Matters of the heart are the most difficult to persuade. Often the more you persuade, the more confused it becomes. This is all I can say.
Wang Luanhe listened carefully to the young lady's instructions and answered seriously:
"Miss, I understand, but I feel like I owe her something. I also think she's a very good person. She's the only one in my heart..."
When Wang Jinyi heard this, he realized that asking the ancients to say that they only had one girl in their hearts was already a violation of the rules.
Now that Wang Luanhe has made up his mind, the rest depends on the ability of his master. It’s really a test!
I feel like there is little hope...
In fact, Feng Mei, who had been secretly following the young lady to protect her today, also felt that hope was slim like Wang Jinyi.
When Feng Mei heard Wang Luanhe say that he wanted to be good to Feng Jie for the rest of his life, she was so scared that she almost fell off the beam.
You should know that royal guards are not allowed to marry in their entire life. Unless they are removed from the royal guards and become ordinary people, they can get married.
But to be removed from the Royal Guard is either due to work mistakes or guilt, and then you can no longer be an ordinary person!
Feng Mei was happy for Feng Jie, who had met someone who always cared about her. At the same time, she was also troubled for Feng Jie, wondering if she should tell Feng Jie about this...
Wang Jinyi also thought: How should I tell Sister Feng about this?
After persuading Wang Luanhe to leave, Wang Jinyi tilted his head and held his chin in his hand, lost in deep thought. Finally, he came up with a solution, which was to tell his grandmother about this matter and let her solve it for him.
Well, this is a good idea. After all, Sister Feng was sent to me by my grandfather, and my grandmother may know what the Ouyang family’s attitude is.
Besides, at the age of 9, I have to be in a dilemma when suggesting marriage to these people in charge. Some of their opinions are beyond my age. I'd better preserve my image!
Wang Jinyi calmed down and prepared to go back to the study to practice calligraphy. After copying the clan leader's calligraphy for six years, it was time to hand in an assignment.
As I was thinking about something and going out, a tall and thin young man smiled and walked a few steps towards me, stepped in, saluted and called out, "Miss."
Wang Jinyi paused and was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded politely, then walked around him and continued walking forward.
The person behind him took a few quick steps, caught up with him, and called out, "Miss, I'm Wang Dongbei!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Jinyi turned around and looked at this tall young man carefully. His face was thin and three-dimensional, and he had a pair of bright eyes under his thick black eyebrows.
Maybe because he has been farming in Ku Shui for all these years, Wang Dongbei's skin has been tanned into a healthy wheat color, and he gives people a sense of solidity and sincerity under the sun.
