"I woke up when I was taking the medicine."
Shuang Ning was shocked: "Madam, why didn't you expose her?"
"She wanted to die at the time. If we woke her up, I'm afraid she wouldn't even take the medicine."
"Why would you want to die? Then why did you drink the medicine?"
Lin Siqing: "It's all because of what you said."
Shuang Ning was confused: "What did I say?"
"She's afraid of getting us into trouble."
Shuang Ning stared at Lin Siqing with her big eyes: "Wasn't she sent to harm us?"
Lin Siqing frowned and thought: "I can't figure it out, but she must have encountered something."
"I hope it's a good one, otherwise all those expensive herbs will be wasted."
Lin Siqing was amused by Shuang Ning when she heard this. "You."
"Mom~" Shang Yangyang, who had just woken up, ran over from a distance.
Lin Siqing rubbed her little head: "Sleep well."
"Hmm~" Shang Yangyang grinned.
Ten days later, the Marquis's Mansion was very lively.
Lin Siqing checked back and forth in the yard. "Check the things again."
Shang Yuanshan held Lin Siqing's hand. "Siqing, don't worry. We have counted them several times. Don't worry."
Matchmaker Liu walked forward with a smile. "Don't worry, Madam Hou, I have counted all the things, and the marriage proposal will be a success today."
Lin Siqing smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Shang Yangyang ran over from behind and shouted loudly: "Brother, Dad, come on!"
"Okay, wait for good news from your elder brother."
"Yeah~" Shang Yangyang nodded vigorously.
Matchmaker Liu: "My Lord, it's time for us to set off."
"good."
Lin Siqing, Shang Yangyang and the others stood in front of the mansion gate and watched the marriage proposal team leave the house.
Today, Shang Yanqing and Shang Yuanshan were both wearing gorgeous clothes, and the horse that Shang Yanqing was riding was covered with red silk.
As festive music sounded, the wedding procession moved forward slowly, followed by servants carrying betrothal gifts. Such a long marriage procession attracted passers-by.
One of them looked at the team with an inquiring expression and said, "A few days ago, there was news that the prince of the Marquisate proposed to the Shen family. Is he going to deliver the betrothal gifts today?"
"With so many betrothal gifts, it seems that Lord Shang attaches great importance to this future daughter-in-law."
Many people were attracted by the marriage proposal team and followed them to the gate of Shen's mansion.
The lively music reached the Shen family courtyard, and Shen Mengli was excited to go out to greet it.
General Shen stopped Shen Mengli who was about to run out: "Li'er, you can't go out. Grandfather will go out to welcome Yan Qing and the others in. You just wait in the mansion. We will meet in the mansion later."
Shen Mengli also knew that she was impulsive. If she rushed out now, she didn't know how she would be criticized.
Shen Mengli nodded obediently: "Okay"
Shen Chengtian shook his head helplessly: "Dad, just spoil her. Logically speaking, she can't show up today."
General Shen walked out and said, "Okay, if you're willing, lock her up in the room."
"Dad, I..." Shen Chengtian followed with a smile: "I just can't bear to leave."
"Then you still talk about me, your father."
Shen Mengli couldn't help laughing behind him. Su Yinnian took Shen Mengli's hand and patted it gently. "In the blink of an eye, our little Mengli is also going to get engaged."
"Mother~" Shen Mengli hugged Su Yinnian.
The sound of music outside was getting closer and closer. Su Yinnian patted Shen Mengli on the shoulder and said, "I'll go out first. You just wait in the front hall."
"Good mother."
When Su Yinnian walked outside, she saw boxes of betrothal gifts being carried in. This showed how much the Marquis' Mansion valued Shen Mengli, and she felt a little relieved.
And she also believed that Lin Siqing would not make things difficult for her Meng Li. Su Yinnian smiled and walked forward to welcome everyone into the main hall.
The first thing Shang Yanqing saw when he came in was Shen Mengli standing beside him. The corners of his mouth were almost stretched to the back of his ears, and the two of them couldn't take their eyes off each other.
Shen Chengtian and the others on the side were full of helplessness and joy, because they were happy that his daughter had found the person she truly loved.
When Matchmaker Liu saw the two families like this, she also smiled from the bottom of her heart. She could see the two young people having a happy life in the future, and that was what made Matchmaker happy.
With the hard work of matchmaker Liu, today's engagement ended smoothly and successfully.
Shen Chengtian took out a bulging red envelope and handed it to Liu the matchmaker. "Thank you for your hard work."
When Matchmaker Liu saw the bulging red envelope, she stared at it in surprise. She didn't expect that the Shen family also gave such a big red envelope.
Matchmaker Liu took the red envelope with a smile and said many auspicious words.
In the end, Shang Yanqing left the Shen Mansion with his father, looking reluctant.
Shang Yuanshan couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so he patted Shang Yanqing on the head. "Come back to your senses, little brat."
Shang Yanqing looked at Shang Yuanshan with a silly smile.
Shang Yuanshan was speechless. He looked at Liu the matchmaker apologetically and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
"This is a happy event, of course we have to be happy."
Shang Yuanshan nodded and smiled, "Matchmaker Liu has prepared a carriage to take you back home."
Matchmaker Liu: "Thank you, my Lord, but I still have to go to the Duke's Mansion."
Shang Yuanshan was full of doubts: "Is the Duke's Mansion the marriage proposal for Shang Huaishu's eldest son?"
"No, I'm going to help Grand Tutor Li's second son find a wife."
Shang Yanqing, who was laughing foolishly, finally came back to his senses: "Propose a marriage for Princess Changning?"
"Yes." Matchmaker Liu nodded happily. "I came here today to get the princess's birth date and horoscope."
Shang Yuanshan and Shang Yanqing looked at each other, and Shang Yuanshan asked tentatively: "Does the Duke agree to this marriage?"
"No, I heard from the Grand Tutor's wife that I can go to the Duke's Mansion and find Master Shang directly."
Shang Yuanshan suppressed his worries, smiled and nodded: "Today is a really good day."
"Yes, it's a good day. Lord, I will withdraw first."
"Okay, go ahead."
After Liu the matchmaker left, Shang Yuanshan and his companion did not waste any time. They mounted their horses and returned home.
Lin Siqing came over with the children: "You're back." Lin Siqing noticed that the two looked strange, especially Shang Yanqing, who shouldn't be so quiet. She asked worriedly: "What happened?"
[Could there be any unexpected incident during the marriage proposal? ]
At this moment, the whole family was staring at the two of them worriedly. Shang Yuanshan and Shang Yanqing looked at each other. Neither of them expected that something was wrong would be discovered as soon as they entered the house.
Shang Yuanshan explained: "The proposal went smoothly, don't worry. It seems that something happened in the Duke's Mansion. We need to wait for Mu Yun to find out the details."
"How could this happen?"
Shang Yuanshan told Liu the matchmaker what he had found out, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
[Grandpa the Duke will never agree to marry the Grand Tutor.] Shang Yangyang's face also became solemn. She waved her hand to call over Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai. After giving them some instructions, the two ghosts floated away.
