Seeing Lan Yu's eyebrows raised, Ye Lan couldn't help but frown.

When he came to the front hall and saw the appearance of the guest seated, Ye Lan knew where Lan Yu's happiness came from.

The old lady was sitting at the main seat, chatting happily with the guests, and the second lady just handed the old lady a cup of hot tea.

"Old madam, our family Shen Yan and the eldest daughter have been engaged for so long. Now the eldest daughter is also nineteen. My son feels sorry for the eldest daughter who was injured on the battlefield and allowed her to stay at home to recuperate. Now that it has been a while, it is time Now that you’re done with it, why not take advantage of this beautiful spring day to set a wedding date?”

The person who spoke was sitting on the lower right side of the old lady. Her face was very kind, and she was about [-]% similar to Shen Yan. But unlike Shen Yan, who always had ambitions that could not be hidden in his eyes, this lady had a gentle feeling in her eyes. Sometimes, a string of warm jade beads on her wrist would make a crisp sound when they collided.

Mrs. Ningyang was known to be the most Buddhist in the capital. She was very kind to others and had a very good reputation among the female relatives.

Yelan sneered, what kind of good thing would be the person who gave birth to Shen Yan?It's just Buddha's mouth and snake's heart.

When she entered the front hall, the two men seemed not to notice her and continued singing and chatting.

The old lady nodded repeatedly while holding the tea, and said with a smile: "The relationship is good, and Lan'er is getting older, so it's time to get married. But... you also know that it is difficult for her to have children because of her poor health. Originally, I am an old woman. I didn’t expect her to get married, but I didn’t expect that Duke Ningyang would look up to Kenner Laner, which is her blessing.”

Mrs. Shen smiled and shook her head, "It is our Shen family's blessing to have a daughter-in-law like this eldest lady."

"What are you talking about, my mother-in-law? When Lan'er gets married, I will make the decision to select a few beautiful girls to accompany her, and then I will spread the branches and leaves of the Shen family. It can be regarded as a good thing for both families." The old lady took a sip. Tea didn't feel at all how outrageous what he said was.

Qingye, who was following Ye Lan, had his eyes widened. He couldn't believe that this was what a grandmother could say?

The young lady hasn’t even married yet, but she has already made plans to give her a concubine!

And even if you want to take a concubine, it shouldn’t be the woman’s initiative!When the time comes for a girl to get married, wouldn't it be a joke if she brought a concubine with her? How should the capital treat the girl?

Qingye turned red with anger and looked at Ye Lan.

Ye Lan stared at these two people who regarded him as nothing, and couldn't hide the sneer on his lips. He walked straight over and sat down next to the old lady.

Seeing Ye Lan's behavior, the old lady's expression changed, "Lan'er, what are you doing?"

There are two main seats, one of which is always vacant. This was originally the seat where the old marquis sat, which meant that only the head of the family could sit. However, because the old marquis passed away a long time ago and Ye Qing was very filial, so I never show off in front of the old lady, so no one takes this seat.

Only the old lady had the exclusive seat of honor. Even when Ye Qing came back, she would sit on the lower right side. She was used to being held in such a high position, and the old lady was also used to the feeling of being in sole control.

And now Ye Lan actually sits directly in the position of the head of the family. Isn't this a slap in the face to her?

Ye Lan was not afraid of the old lady at all, and chuckled, "How come you can see me now?"

"Lan'er, Mrs. Shen is here to discuss your marriage with Prince Shen. Don't mess around here and be obedient." The old lady stared at Ye Lan's position and said in a deep voice.

Mrs. Shen narrowed her eyes unconsciously when she saw Ye Lan being so bold.

Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that Yelan and the old lady are at odds, but this is also very reasonable. Why didn't the Marquis of Dingguo come out of the old lady's belly?

She smiled and smoothed things over, "Hey, isn't this a big girl? I just happened to be talking to the old lady about the marriage between our two families, and you are here to listen to your thoughts."

Seeing the late night, the old lady had no intention of moving her seat. She gritted her teeth secretly but could not do anything about this damn girl. She gave an order like an ordinary one: "You are not young anymore. I will arrange the wedding as soon as possible. Why not do it next month?" Choose a good day to enter the Shen family."

"Next month, I have to prepare quickly." Mrs. Shen said with a pleasant expression.

Glancing at Mrs. Shen, Ye Lan said coldly: "Mrs. Shen, don't be so anxious. I haven't said whether I will marry or not."

Mrs. Shen's face froze, "What?"

Now the old lady really couldn't bear Ye Lan and angrily shouted: "You are going to be nineteen soon. If you don't get married now, how long do you want to stay at Ye's house?"

"My father hasn't come back from the border yet. It's impossible for me to get married in such a hazy manner." Yelan said without changing his expression, "If we want to discuss the wedding date, we have to wait for my father to come back."

Yelan's request was not excessive, and Mrs. Shen was relieved. Fortunately, Yelan did not mean to break off the engagement.

She continued with a smile on her face, "Girl, we are actually discussing it now. When the matter is almost settled, when Marquis Dingguo comes back, we will be in time to witness your marriage."

The old lady said with a cold face: "Your father is fighting at the border, and there will be many things to do when he comes back. I will arrange your marriage in advance, so as not to cause trouble to your father."

Concerned about the soft and hard knives between the two, Ye Lan asked abruptly: "Grandma, dad is fighting in the border far away. Do you know how long it has been since the news came back?"

"What does this newspaper have to do with your marriage?" The old lady frowned and asked, wondering what kind of medicine was being sold in the gourd this late at night.

"It's been half a year since dad went to the border to fight. In the past, I would receive a newspaper every month, but now it's been two months and I haven't received a newspaper yet. Isn't grandma worried?" Yelan looked directly into the old lady's eyes and said one word. asked one sentence at a time.

The old lady was immediately speechless, what kind of ghost pond newspaper, one letter a month?She wished that Ye Qing had died on the battlefield, so how could she care about whether the news from Tang News came back? Anyway, there must be some news about Ye Qing's victory, and she felt bad after hearing it.

"Grandma is not worried about my dad, but I worry about my dad every day so much that I can't eat or sleep. How could I happily prepare for my wedding in the capital while my dad is still fighting with the enemy at the border? ?”

Ye Lan's eyes turned a little red when he mentioned the emotional point.

The old lady's face was ashen, and Yelan's words were clearly accusing her of not caring about her stepson.

Ye Lan looked at the old lady's reaction and sneered in her heart. Although the old lady was domineering in the Ye family, she still cherished her reputation in front of outsiders, so there was no news that she and her father were at odds for so many years.

The old lady gritted her teeth and looked at Ye Lan, took a breath and said, "Since you are filial, let's discuss the wedding on another day."

Ye Lan stood up with a smile and bowed to the old lady, "Grandma still cares about me, so I won't disturb you and Mrs. Shen, and I'll take my leave first."

The girl in Tsing Yi walked very neatly. Mrs. Shen stared at her back and frowned tightly, looking at the old lady beside her.

"Old madam, what about this marriage..."
