Jianshu also came back to his senses from eating his beloved horse and looked at Daoqin in surprise.
"Don't you think Miss Zhu is, um, average looking, um, a little fat?"
Daoqin glared at Jianshu angrily.
"How is she fat? She is not fat at all. Wouldn't it be better if she was as thin as a straw? Besides, she is already very beautiful! She even has dimples when she smiles!"
What else does Ye Xinran not understand? This is definitely a case of beauty in the eyes of the beholder!
But Zhu Qian is the head of the Zhu family after all, and Dao Qin is a secret guard. Isn't this unfair to Zhu Qian? Forget it, I can't take care of these now. I'll change Dao Qin's identity later!
Just as Ye Xinran was about to walk towards the door, she saw Zhu Qian, with a blushing face, standing at the door hand in hand with Gu Yanxin.
Ye Xinran...
This is such a coincidence!
"Zhu Qian, why are you here?" Ye Xinran asked, touching his nose.
Zhu Qian finally came back to her senses and coughed lightly, "It's getting late, and whoever hasn't come to see me yet, I can't wait and come over to see for myself!"
Dao Qin heard Ye Xinran calling Zhu Qian, and turned around to see Zhu Qian standing at the door.
She is still wearing the dazzling red dress today, which makes her look even more radiant, lively and lovely.
Dao Qin stared at it with wide eyes.
Jianshu quickly pushed him and he finally reacted.
Thinking about what he had just said, he just wanted to find a hole to crawl into. He felt that he had lost all his face on this day.
Ye Xinran saw the embarrassment of the two. No matter what Zhu Qian meant, they both wanted to calm down for a while. So he stepped forward and took Zhu Qian's hand.
"Come on, now that you're here, come with me to visit Yan's home!"
Zhu Qian nodded quickly. She was feeling very confused and really needed to leave.
"Sister-in-law, can I go with you?" Gu Yanxin asked cautiously. She was not like her sister-in-law, who was capable and rich. Now she could only help her sister-in-law with the housework and cooking, trying not to burden her sister-in-law.
Ye Xinran thought about it and said, "I guess I can't get out!"
Because each family is limited to one! It's okay to bribe other families, but the direct descendants of the royal palace will probably be very strict. For people like Daoqin and Jianshu, most of the time they have to climb over the wall and can't go through the main gate.
Gu Yanxin lowered his head in disappointment.
"However, you can let Daoqin take you over the wall! But you can't stay outside for too long, or you'll be discovered!"
Why choose Daoqin? Because Daoqin feels more reliable!
Gu Yanxin's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly, "I'll just go out for a walk and I'll be back within an hour!"
Ye Xinran smiled. Seeing her like this, she must be very depressed. She took out a purse from her bosom. It was full of small change, probably about fifty taels, and some copper coins.
"Well, when you go out, buy whatever you want! But be low-key and don't draw other people's attention. Also, be careful! It's best to tell your father and mother so that they don't worry."
Ye Xinran didn't think of taking her to Yan's home, thinking that the little girl must want to go shopping.
Gu Yanxin happily took the money with both hands and nodded, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely not cause any trouble."
Ye Xinran nodded, said a few words to Dao Qin, and then took Zhu Qian away.
The two went out and met Zhou Shuo and Zhang Lai at the door.
"Princess, please go out!" Zhou Shuo said with a smile.
Ye Xinran nodded.
Zhou Shuo let her go directly, and Zhang Lai nodded at her kindly.
Ye Xinran got on Zhu Qian's carriage, and the group went to Mr. Yan's mansion.
Not long after, Dao Qin and Gu Yanxin, who was dressed as a servant, climbed over the wall of the post station and headed towards the busy street.
Along the way, Zhu Qian, who used to be chatterbox, became very silent.
Ye Xinran didn't want to disturb her. It was probably the first time that the little girl was confessed to, and she was thinking wildly.
Ye Xinran glanced at her and saw her frowning, smiling shyly, sighing, and being absent-minded.
Ye Xinran closed her eyes, thinking, out of sight, out of mind.
Suddenly her arm was patted. She opened her eyes and saw Zhu Qian's face flushed, and asked embarrassedly.
"Xinran, tell me, if I let him marry into my family, will he agree?"
Ye Xinran blinked! No, this is the step of getting married? Don't you want to think about it? Don't you need to check the character and everything? Don't you want to be picky about family affairs?
Seeing Ye Xinran not saying anything, Zhu Qian said with a bit of uneasiness, "It really isn't a good idea to let a man marry into your family!"
"No, you don't even want to get to know him well before you talk about getting married?" Ye Xinran couldn't help but speak.
Zhu Qian raised her eyebrows. "It has always been the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words since ancient times! I'm already pretty good. I've even met her in advance and know a little bit about her."
Thinking of something, she said shyly, "He said I was cute! He really has good taste!"
Ye Xinran held his forehead with his hand!
"He is the palace's secret guard!"
"Oh! Really!" Zhu Qian's eyes lit up, "Then his martial arts skills must be very high!"
Ye Xinran nodded helplessly. After thinking for a while, he said, "Daoqin is usually very dull! He doesn't talk much!"
"That's perfect. I talk a lot, so we can complement each other!" Zhu Qian was full of joy!
Ye Xinran was speechless! "You are the richest man, he is definitely not as rich as you, don't you want to find someone who is of equal status?"
"That would be an arranged marriage. If I accidentally run into someone like Hua Zhang, I'd be so miserable! The point is that I have plenty of money, so there's no need for an arranged marriage!"
"Okay, you have money, you have the final say!" Ye Xinran said helplessly.
Come to think of it, I feel like they're a good match for each other!
"Did you and the prince know each other before you got married?" Zhu Qian asked.
Ye Xinran shook her head, "I don't know her. The prince was originally going to marry my eldest sister! Later, I was tricked and was married off as a substitute!"
"Well, you're worse off than me! At least I can make my own choice!" Zhu Qian said, and then thought of Gu Yanming's demeanor, "But the prince is not bad either, you can be considered to have picked up a treasure by accident!"
Ye Xinran touched her nose, she also felt that Gu Yanming was not bad!
The two chatted all the way until they arrived at the banquet house.
When the gatekeeper of the Yan Mansion saw that it was Zhu Qian's carriage, he let the carriage in without asking any further questions.
The two got off the carriage. Wu Neng, the butler of Yan Mansion, was already waiting there. When he saw them, he came forward to greet them with a smile.
"Miss Ye, Miss Zhu, long time no see! Please come in!"
Ye Xinran smiled and nodded. "Hello, Butler Wu!"
Zhu Qian went up to Wu Neng and took his arm. "Uncle Wu, have you solved the chess game from last time?"
Wu Neng sighed, "It's almost there, almost there! Let me think about it!"
Zhu Qian smiled and said, "Then I'll give you half a month. If you can't figure it out, you have to admit defeat!"
When Wu Neng heard that he was willing to accept the loss, his face dropped and his expression became gloomy.
