Mrs. Xue held Xue Baoqin's hand, with reluctance in her voice, and said: "When you come to your husband's house, you must know how to be filial to your parents-in-law, take care of your husband and teach your children, and remember your duty as a daughter-in-law. Don't play with your temper. The Mei family— —The Mei family is a scholarly family, you--" At the end of the sentence, Mrs. Xue's eyes were already red, and her voice was choked with sobs.

Nanny Li knew about Mrs. Xue's condition, so she quickly persuaded her, "Ma'am, on this day of great joy, don't shed tears!"

Mrs. Xue nodded, let go of Xue Baoqin's hand, her face was still sad, and she forced a smile: "In the future, you should live well."

Xue Baoqin bit her lips tightly, trying not to shed tears, knelt down and kowtowed to Mrs. Xue, and just yelled, "Mother—" After that, she couldn't say anything.

Everyone also showed sadness on their faces. Although it is a happy event to marry a daughter, how can there be only laughter in human nature.

Xue Baoqin was supported and walked to Xue Qiu's side. Naturally, the married woman was sent to the sedan chair by her elder brother on his back.

Xue Qiu walked towards the sedan chair with Xue Baoqin on his back, and said: "Sister, be well in the future. If there is anything, brother will take care of it for you!"

Xue Baoqin covered her head with a hipa, only red in front of her eyes, and colorful tassels swaying in front of her.Xue Baoqin leaned gently on Xue Qiu's shoulder, and said, "Brother, you also need to be well. Mother's illness, you—"

"Don't worry! My brother promised you!" Xue Qiu looked at the sedan chair in front of him, and walked steadily with Xue Baoqin on his back step by step.

He still has a lot of things to carry on this road, and he still has a long way to go. He walks alone like this. Who is he walking for? This is no longer important to Xue Qiu. He just wanted to finish the road sooner.Or he was just waiting, just like in his previous life, waiting for the end of this road.

Xue Baoqin listened to Xue Qiu's words, but felt distressed for Xue Qiu in her heart. A man as good as my brother will be happy!

"Treat her well, otherwise I will—" Before Xue Qiu finished speaking, Mei Xuan immediately said seriously: "Don't worry, brother-in-law! I will definitely treat her well!"

Xue Qiu waved his hand and said: "Don't say these words, these words are worthless at all." Just like himself, what he said to her has become empty words.No one knows what will happen in the next moment, and what will change.

Mei Xuan nodded to Xue Qiu, knowing that it was time to get up in the sedan chair and leave. With a wave of his hand, the sound of the horn and suona sounded.

Xue Qiu stood at the door and watched the welcoming procession go away, before turning back to the mansion.

Most of the guests were leaving, some rushed to Mei's house, and some left before they had something to do.Xue Qiu stood at the door and had to hold him back for a while before letting him go.

"Marquis of Zhennan, you are in the limelight today!" Song Jiang smiled and walked over, followed by several officials who were also officials in the Imperial Academy, including Liu Sheng.

Xue Qiu said modestly: "Where! My lord's words are serious."

Song Jiang didn't dislike Xue Qiu's modesty. On the contrary, in his opinion, Xue Qiu was talented but not arrogant. He was always humble and polite, and he was very satisfied with Xue Qiu.

Liu Sheng looked at Xue Qiu, and felt very uncomfortable. He was obviously in the same year's list, and Xue Qiu had already been granted the title of Marquis, while he was still struggling in the Imperial Academy.

Xue Qiu has been on the battlefield, experienced life and death, and has a certain vision, so he can naturally see the resentment and envy in Liu Sheng's eyes.Xue Qiu didn't care about Liu Sheng's eyes at all, he knew that many things would change, even himself.

Jiang Chong, who followed Xue Qiu to Liangguang Ping Haikou, asked with a smile: "I don't know when I can drink the wedding wine of Lord Marquis?"

As soon as these words came out, the captains and chief guards who had also been with Xue Qiu also booed and asked: "Yes! This sister is married, when will you be here, Lord Hou?"

Xue Qiu looked at the group of people, with a slightly stronger smile on his face, and said, "Soon." His mother should have made a decision for himself, and he thought he would get married soon.

King Bei Jing left very early, a dignified prince would not stay for long, if it wasn't because of Shui Linglong, whether he would come or not was still a problem.Shui Linglong always felt that there was something wrong with Xue Qiu, but she didn't want to ask more questions, so she had to go back with King Beijing first.

Uncle Xue Qiu's family will definitely not leave for a while now, but fortunately the Hou Mansion is big enough and there is no shortage of rooms.All the other uncles Xue Qiu had their own houses in the capital. At the beginning, Xue Qiu's family had an old house, and it would not be too bad to come to other houses.

After the feast, the guests dispersed.The dowry of Zhennanhou's married sister really opened the eyes of the common people. Along the way, some people lamented Zhennanhou's financial resources.Moreover, even the King of Beijing visited the door in person to express his congratulations, which shows the magnificence of the Zhennanhou Mansion.Xue Qiu didn't care too much about Xue Baoqin's dowry, after all, the Xue family was a businessman from the beginning, so they had a certain amount of wealth, not to mention Xue Qiu's meritorious service, the emperor also rewarded him with a lot of property.

Xue Qiu walked into the main hall, watching his mother and aunt Chen Qiaoshi talking.He went forward and bowed to his mother and aunt, and said, "Auntie, I went back with the people from the Rong Mansion. The other uncles also went back to their houses."

Mrs. Xue nodded. Although she didn't need to worry about anything today, she felt a little tired. She looked at Chen Qiao and said, "Sister-in-law, will you stay in the mansion for a few more days?"

Chen Qiao shook her head and said, "Forget it, it looks like it's almost the end of the year, and it's time to get busy."

Xue Qiu asked, "Auntie, is uncle going to be transferred soon?"

Chen Qiaoshi nodded and said with a sigh: "It is because of this that your uncle didn't come over. This matter is even more busy." He said to Mrs. Xue: "Don't blame him!"

Mrs. Xue said with a smile: "Don't worry! I know. It's just that when Qiu'er gets married, he can't be absent any more."

With a smile on her face, Chen Qiao put down the teacup in her hand and said, "Of course not!"

Mrs. Xue is very satisfied with Shui Linglong. Although there are some unfavorable rumors about Princess Linglong outside, Mrs. Xue is not offended. She knows that Shui Linglong and Xue Qiu are a good match.Looking at Xue Qiu, he asked, "Qiu'er, your mother wants to arrange a marriage for you."

Xue Qiu was not surprised at all, he knew about this early in the morning, bowed and said: "Mother decides everything!"

Mrs. Xue didn't know whether to be happy or sad, but she still said: "My mother has appointed you Princess Linglong, the daughter of King Beijing."

Xue Qiu pondered for a while, and only asked: "Mother, when will you go to the palace to propose marriage?"

Just as Mrs. Xue was about to say something, she saw Lulian walking in with a letter.Lu Lian bowed and said, "Master Hou, here is a letter left by Qian Que. She said that the matter is urgent."

Mrs. Xue frowned, she knew who Qian Que's maid was, and asked, "When did it happen?"

Lu Lian didn't know what was going on here, and said: "Qianque followed the people from Jia's house early in the morning, and left after handing this letter to me. Qianque seems to have come with people from Jia's house in private. Yes, I was also in a hurry when I left."
