[Big brother’s marriage?] Yuan Zhizhi tilted her head in her mother’s arms and thought.
[In my previous life, after my eldest brother's leg was crippled, he stayed locked up in his room and rarely left the house. As for marriage, no one even considered it for him...]
When Yuan Zhao heard Yuan Zhizhi's mumbling, her eyes dimmed slightly, and Yuan Heng opposite her never took his eyes off her.
[But Zhizhi does remember! Wei Tianci married Xie Wanqing, the daughter of the Xie family, a prominent family in Beijing.]
[Hehe, Zhizhi remembers that it was the scumbag father who came to ask for marriage, and the Xie family happily agreed. If it weren't for the support of the Xie family, how could Wei Tianci have become the Prime Minister so quickly...]
When Zhizhi thought about these things, she became angry. The other people at the table also heard it, and the originally lively scene suddenly became quiet.
Yuan Nan'an ate rice in silence, and Yuan Xuan put the last duck leg into her bowl.
These days, Yuan Xuan gradually figured out Zhizhi's thoughts.
At first he thought he was hallucinating and asked Nan Nan about it, but Nan Nan just warned him: You must not let anyone else know about this!
He is usually carefree, but he has inherited Yuan Cheng's intelligence and is very meticulous.
After observing for a while, he found that he was not the only one who could hear Zhizhi's words.
He also knew that he shouldn't ask questions, so he just silently took note of what Zhizhi said in his heart.
Although Zhizhi has spoken less since coming to the capital.
But Yuan Xuan listened carefully and heard a lot.
About myself, about Nannan, about my father, and about my aunt, big brother Mu Sheng, and little brother Qi Yu...
Since Zhizhi said that he would marry Wei Jiaojiao, he tried every possible means to avoid Wei Jiaojiao and never gave her the chance to get close to him.
Or he could stick to Nan Nan. Anyway, Nan Nan knew that she would not let Wei Jiaojiao get close to him.
He didn't care much about his own ending, and he knew that everything now was very different from the "previous life" that Zhizhi mentioned.
My aunt successfully returned to Beijing to divorce her husband, my brother Mu Sheng's leg healed, my brother Qi Yu was rescued, and the relationship between my father and the emperor also eased a lot...
But he pieced together the hardships they had experienced in Yangzhou from Zhizhi's words.
My aunt, who knew the truth, had no support and it was very difficult at that time.
At that time, the first people to know about these things, besides my aunt, were Nan Nan...
He once heard his mother say that his aunt's daughter had a bad throat for some time and could not speak, and no famous doctors could cure her.
So before he met Nan Nan for the first time, he always felt that she must be a silent and gloomy sister.
But Nan Nan is not like that. She loves to laugh and is always jumping around like a little sun.
Moreover, she always puts in more than ten times the effort in what she wants to do, and never complains of being tired just because she is a little girl.
Since she came to the capital, Yuan Xuan felt that his life had changed.
Nan Nan attended classes and practiced martial arts with him. Just seeing her hard work and dedication made those boring classes sound much more lively and those difficult martial arts became much easier.
But sometimes he always wondered: How did Nan Nan spend those days in Yangzhou?
Once, he asked Brother Mu Sheng how his leg got better.
He remembered that Brother Mu Sheng looked at him tenderly and said, "This is all thanks to Nan Nan and Zhi Zhi..."
Yuan Musheng told him the story of how he fell into a pond on a snowy day and was rescued by Nan Nan.
Yuan Xuan was shocked after hearing this.
He couldn't imagine how Nan Nan had managed to rescue Yuan Musheng, who was much taller and heavier than her, in such heavy snow and freezing cold water.
He is not young anymore and has understood all the principles he should understand.
He clearly understood that Nan Nan must have endured a lot of ridicule and contempt at that time because of her "muteness." She also knew about her own father's betrayal and the murder of her loved ones...
He was the grandson of the emperor since childhood and had a noble status. The greatest hardship he had to endure was the hardship of studying.
But Nan Nan is two years younger than him, yet she has experienced so much and is still so strong.
She never complained about her grievances in front of others, but she would remain silent occasionally when she heard Zhizhi talking about the past.
Just like now.
…
Yuan Nan'an looked at the duck legs in his bowl and smiled at Yuan Xuan.
"Thanks."
Yuan Xuan felt his mind shaken for a moment. He avoided the sight and ate the rice in his bowl.
[Speaking of which, has Big Brother ever been engaged?]
[We must find a sister-in-law for Big Brother who is a hundred times more powerful than the Xie family! ]
Zhizhi was still mumbling, and Yuan Zhao listened while thinking about the information about marriageable girls in the capital that Song Yunci had recently collected for her.
Xie Wanqing, the eldest daughter of the Xie family, is indeed of first-class family background, talent and appearance.
She had considered it before, but after hearing what Zhizhi said, she decided to let the Xie family go.
Although it happened in the previous life, the fact that she fell in love with Wei Shaoqing and Wei Tianci shows that her vision is not very good.
But at this moment, Gan Tang came in and handed Yuan Zhao a visiting card.
"Your Highness, this was sent by Madam Xie."
Yuan Zhao raised his eyebrows. Speak of the devil and he will appear.
She didn't read the invitation, and Gan Tang continued, "Your Highness, I've heard that recently the noble families have been discussing the matter between the eldest son and Miss Xie..."
"What's the matter?" Yuan Zhao was a little surprised. When did Mu Sheng become involved with this Miss Xie?
"I don't know who spread the rumor that the eldest son was engaged to Miss Xie when he was young..."
This time, Yuan Zhao's face showed shock.
When did it happen? How could she, as a mother, not know about it?
Yuan Zhizhi also heard it, and her face fell, [Ah...]
Yuan Heng on the opposite side saw the little dumpling's lively expression and chuckled.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Zhao glared at him, and he quickly suppressed his smile. Yuan Qiyu, who was standing beside him, said to him with a stern face, "Third uncle, what's so funny about this?"
Yuan Heng couldn't help but pinched Yuan Qiyu's face, turned away from Yuan Zhao and threatened him, "You're the only one who talks too much!"
Yuan Qi Yu was not frightened at all and continued to eat the last bit of rice in his bowl.
"I went to inquire about it. It seems that when they were still in the capital, Wei Shaoqing and the Xie family were colleagues. They drank together and got drunk and said that the two families wanted to become relatives. They even exchanged engagement letters..."
Yuan Zhao's face darkened slightly, and he asked, "Is he exchanging Mu Sheng's engagement letter or Wei Tianci's?"
"It's the eldest son's..."
[Oh, Zhizhi, I understand. That's why later, my scumbag father went to the Xie family to propose marriage, saying that the two families already had an engagement. In fact, it was my eldest brother who was engaged to Xie Wanqing, but at that time, my eldest brother was disabled and had no achievements, so the Xie family naturally didn't want to, and they worked together with my scumbag father to switch the marriage...]
Now that Big Brother has become rich, he's bringing up the marriage again. Look, the Xie family isn't a good family either!
Yuan Zhao took a deep breath.
Wei Shaoqing, this bastard, could actually cause her trouble!
