Red Mansion: Taming the Overlord

Chapter 144 The Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix

As soon as Daiyu heard these words, she immediately threw the curtain and got into the carriage.

Liu Dingchuan then turned to the side of the carriage and continued, "Miss Lin, what I said next is sincere, and I didn't mean to be rude to you, but I didn't say it out loud. Ever since I met Miss Lin for the first time, I have been paying attention. I know The girl will come to Jiangnan with Brother Bai and Brother Xue. I don’t know how happy she is. For the past six months, I have been looking forward to it every day. Only when I see you well with my own eyes, can I let go of my heart. If you offend the girl because of me, then I will die forever. It’s just my heart, the girl must check it out. What I said just now is a jerk, but it is also sincere. ——As long as you nod, I will invite my mother to come to propose marriage tomorrow."

"Why do you have to say such nonsense, my lord? I was not worthy to be the daughter of the princess, but I just said it rudely. If Mr. Liu takes it seriously, then I really want to die." Daiyu said.

Liu Dingchuan couldn't hide his disappointment, but he didn't have any intention of backing down, "I know Miss Lin has a lot of worries in her heart, but the girl should always believe my sincerity. I just ask the girl to tell you, what is wrong with me that annoys you I?"

"Mr. Liu has nothing bad. It's just that my parents are both dead, and the future is uncertain. I don't have the idea of ​​marriage leave, so I delayed my son for no reason. With the lintel of your mansion, I think you will meet a thousand times better than me, and treat your son An infatuated person. When it is time, I can only wish the young master to play harmoniously."

"I'm afraid it can't be done." Hearing Daiyu's words, Liu Dingchuan was clear about the two of them. He didn't have any wavering intentions like yesterday. He stretched out his hand and opened the curtain on the small window on the side of the car, and looked at Daiyu, "It should be more tactful, but the girl's words are really annoying, so I just said it straight. In this life, my wife can only be surnamed Lin, it will only be one person. If you don’t believe me, girl, just wait.”

After finishing speaking, he lowered the curtain and turned around to leave.

This seemingly angry words made Daiyu's heart shake, and when she regained her senses and opened the curtain, she could only see Liu Dingchuan's back.

She became more and more confused.

Originally, he just wanted to make Liu Dingchuan give up, but who knows that it has aroused his heart, and I am afraid that he will not be kind.

It's just that he was angry, and the cruel words he let go made people laugh and cry.What does it mean that a wife in this life will only be named Lin?It sounds nondescript, like a child getting angry.

However, the content of the sentence itself made Daiyu have to pay attention.

One pair for life people.Even if it's just an angry sentence, it's fascinating.Liu Dingchuan's appearance is chic and casual, and his behavior is uninhibited, but he is also such an idiot.However, idiots are so sad, it has been like this since ancient times.

Another voice suddenly appeared from the bottom of my heart: If you answer him, he won't be sad.

Daiyu almost thought it was another person talking in her ear, but she soon realized that it was just a little luck of her own.I was lucky to think that I could have such a beautiful marriage and future.

She returned to the residence with such complicated thoughts, even the concerned eyes of Bo Yang and Xue Pan were unable to deal with it, and locked herself up again.She herself didn't know what was going on, let alone sum it up, so naturally she didn't know what to say.That being the case, it is better not to say it.

Bo Yang asked a few words at the door, seeing that Daiyu had no intention of communicating, he had no choice but to leave.

However, early the next morning, Daiyu was startled by the news Zijuan brought, "Girl, Princess Qinghe came to the door early in the morning with a matchmaker and generous gifts, and is talking to two uncles outside right now."

She was combing her hair, but when she heard that she broke a hair, she frowned in pain.When Mother Tang saw this, she said to Zijuan, "What are you doing yelling in front of the girl? Naturally, the men will deal with such matters. It's important to get the clothes and come over and change the girl."

Daiyu came back slowly, angry and funny, Liu Dingchuan said yesterday that as long as she nodded, a matchmaker would come to her door.As a result, she didn't nod, and the matchmaker also came.

Is this deceiving her not to confront him?

However, some other worries inevitably arose in my heart.

If the princess really came here to propose marriage, what would Bo Yang think?He will definitely not make his own claims, but ask himself what he means.What do you mean by yourself?

Do you want to decline?But if she refuses this time, as she said to Bo Yang before, she may have to go back to Yangzhou immediately and never come back again.After all, she brushed the face of the princess, although she would not do anything as an old man, but it is conceivable that she would be unhappy, so naturally she couldn't stay in front of her to cause trouble.

And Liu Dingchuan, naturally they will not meet again.Even if he came to visit the two elder brothers again, he had to avoid suspicion with himself.

Thinking of this, I don't know what it feels like.

So... Do you want to agree?

As soon as this idea appeared in her mind, for some reason, Daiyu immediately remembered Liu Dingchuan's oath-like words yesterday.

What can I do now to repay his infatuation?

Just thinking about it like this, time passed quickly.In the middle, Daiyu looked out of the window frequently, and she even wanted Zijuan to inquire about the news again, but with Madam Tang standing aside, she couldn't open her mouth, and tried her best to appear chaste and virtuous.

At first Daiyu wanted to do embroidery work, but she almost pricked her fingers, so she had to change to another book of Tang poems to read. She only read it for a long time, but she still stopped at that page.

Seeing this, Mother Tang waved Zijuan and the little girl out, then walked to Daiyu's side and stood still, asking, "Young lady, are you thinking about today's guest?"

Daiyu was startled, "Nurse..."

"Young lady should think about it too." Mother Tang said, "Young lady has her own ideas. What Laoshen said is just nonsense. I'm going to say that, and I'm going to listen to it. If you think it's wrong, just forget it right away. "

She had never spoken in such a big way before, Daiyu straightened her body subconsciously, and said seriously, "Madam, please tell me."

"Girl's thoughts, Mr. Bai is a man, and there are always negligence, but I can say three points. I will ask the girl a few questions, and the girl can figure out the answer by herself." Tang Nanny said, "The first The question is, is the girl willing to marry or not?"

Daiyu bit her lip, her eyes flickered, as if hesitating.Mother Tang didn't wait for her answer, "The second question, from the girl's point of view, is there a better family than the one in front of me?"

No.Daiyu can answer this question.

Unless there is another Bo Yang in this world, there can be no better choice.

"The third question, without mentioning love affairs, what does the girl think of Mr. Liu? How do you get along with him? What if you want to get along for such a long time?"

After asking the three questions, Nanny Tang stood aside and stopped talking, letting Daiyu think for herself.

Daiyu herself was troubled and couldn't make up her mind, when Nanny Tang asked questions, she couldn't help thinking along these three questions.Maybe it was just an answer to herself, and she didn't need to give the answer to anyone, so she only hesitated a little, and made a choice according to her heart.

If she could meet the right person, she would naturally look forward to marriage and a completely different life.

There is no better family than the Liu family.

Liu Dingchuan is a very good person, and it is pleasant to talk to and get along with him.Even in some aspects—especially poetry, poetry and literature, he is a better chat partner than Bo Yang. The two have similar hobbies and are both knowledgeable and talented. Whenever they discuss this aspect, there is always a sense of incisiveness. .

After answering these three questions, and then turning back to think about the matter of the Liu family coming to propose marriage, the feeling of rejection in my heart, which was not much in the first place, became even weaker.

Daiyu thought back to herself again, what did Liu Dingchuan like in her?It's nothing more than these three aspects - he wants to marry a wife he likes, but there is no more suitable candidate than Lin Daiyu in front of him, and the two get along very well.

If it is said that infatuation does not regret, the two have only met a few times, so it is not enough.

She was frightened by Liu Dingchuan's statement before, but now that she thinks about it carefully, she thinks that his words are exaggerated, maybe it's also because as a man, he feels that he has to take on more responsibilities, which is reassuring.

That being the case, on the premise of getting along with each other like this, what reason does she have to oppose this marriage?

This was already better than the best ending she had imagined before.

As soon as she breathed a sigh of relief, Daiyu's complexion softened, and she was no longer so nervous about Bo Yang's progress.Everything goes with the flow, and when there should be results, it will happen naturally.

When I was anxiously waiting before, I just felt that time passed slowly.Now let go of your heart, time is fleeting again.Not long after, someone came to invite Daiyu, saying that it was Bo Yang who invited her to talk.

Daiyu and Nanny Tang looked at each other, got up and straightened their clothes, and then went to the front courtyard.

Sure enough, what Bo Yang wanted to talk about was the matter of the Liu family coming to propose marriage, and asked Daiyu what she meant. ——Actually, he might be suspicious of what happened at Liu's house yesterday, or Daiyu herself and Liu Dingchuan had made a decision, so she came to propose marriage.If it wasn't for Daiyu's complexion when she came back yesterday, she might have already agreed to it.

So when he met Daiyu, he didn't think about those euphemisms, he directly said the matter, and asked, "What's on my sister's mind, you tell me, so I can make the decision for you."

"How did brother Yang send you away?" Daiyu asked without answering the question.

Bo Yang said, "I said my sister is still young, so I'm not in a hurry to get engaged."

Daiyu laughed aloud when she heard the words, "Only Brother Yang can say that." A 17-year-old girl is definitely not young no matter which family she is in.If it wasn't for Bo Yang to make the decision, Daiyu would probably have to decide on the marriage.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but ask again, "Then madam... what does the Princess Princess say?"

Bo Yang said, "She said that she knows we don't want to part with you, but Mr. Liu is too old, and if he doesn't get married, people will suspect him of something unspeakable, so although you are still young, you can always make an appointment first, and after a year or two You can get married again in the next year."

"..." As expected of Princess Qinghe, if Bo Yang can speak nonsense with his eyes open, she can also speak nonsense with his eyes open.

Don't say it, it's kind of like that.

Bo Yang changed the subject, looked at her and said, "Sister asked this way, did she change her mind?"

Daiyu thought for a moment, and then said, "In the past few years, I have been protected by Brother Yang, so I have such a stable and happy life. But I can't always rely on Brother Yang. In the future, I have to go by myself. Mr. Liu If you are sincere, and Brother Yang also agrees, then it must be excellent. Since it is already very good, what else can I ask for?"

"Why do you say so about yourself?" Bo Yang frowned, "You don't need to compromise, if you don't like it, just reject it."

Daiyu said with a smile, "I know Brother Yang loves me, but let me make up my own mind about this matter."

"Have you made up your mind?"

"Think about it."

"Forget it." Although Bo Yang didn't know why Daiyu suddenly made a decision, but Liu Dingchuan was originally his favorite candidate, and now this result is not bad.At least both parties have the willingness to manage this marriage seriously. As long as there are no accidents, the future will not be bad.

And Daiyu has a home, so he can realize this wish.

"However, before I promise, there is one more thing to ask Brother Yang." Daiyu said, "Father made all kinds of arrangements for me earlier, and the matter of Mr. Zhang must be settled first."

"That's easy." Bo Yang said, "I have found out where he is staying, so I will send someone to deliver a letter to him."

"No." Daiyu said, "I hope Brother Yang will disclose this matter to Mr. Liu."
