Helian Yi pointed to the tent entrance: "Even if we had the chance, there wouldn't be time to hide."
Sure enough, the curtain opened, and Huo Yanyu, holding a tinderbox in one hand and Peng Silang's hand in the other, walked directly to the middle of the tent, lit the oil lamp, looked around, and said with a smile, "Sister Xinxin, Sister Sisi, what are you doing in Prince Helian's tent so late at night?"
Gu Xin and Gu Si exchanged a glance, then looked at Huo Yanyu, grinning foolishly without saying a word.
Peng Silang was a bit carefree, but not really stupid. He understood completely by now. He pointed at the two girls and said, "Well, Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu have actually colluded with you!"
Gu Xin: "Brother Peng, don't say that. If it weren't for us, would you have been able to steal Hanhan's heart so quickly and turn her into Gangan?"
Peng Silang: "Huh?"
Gu Si: "Yeah, silly. Fourth Brother Peng, you're just silly. If it weren't for my second uncle and aunt and us, could you have confessed your feelings to Hanhan so quickly? Could you have been led around so gently by Hanhan?"
Gu Xin: "That's right! My brother Yuanyuan taught me how to win the heart of the girl I like, and you actually turned around and said that Yuanyuan and I were too stupid and shameless. How can you be so ungrateful?"
Gu Si nodded: "Yeah, yeah, Brother Peng, you're so boring! When I get back, I'm going to find Hanhan's brother. Huo Shentong won't let you kidnap his sister so easily."
The two sisters chatted back and forth, making Peng Silang completely forget his original intention. He wanted to say something to them, but instead, he was the one being talked to.
Huo Yanyu glanced at Peng Silang with disdain, then looked at Gu Xin and Gu Si, grabbed Peng Silang's hand and shook it in the air: "Sister Xin, Sister Si, this is what you wanted to see, isn't it! Anyway, I competed with Yiyi, and I won! Let's go find Yiyi!"
Peng Silang: "?"
A competition? What the hell?
Having dealt with Peng Erlang for more than half a year, and surrounded by many soldiers of the Great Zhou, Helian Yi could now understand what they were saying, and he joined in to watch the excitement.
Coincidentally, Lu Zheng, Xue Qianyu, Peng Ze, and Peng Erlang were also nearby when they came out of Helian Yi's tent. They seemed to have seen the scene as well, but they didn't hear it.
"Second Brother, how far have you and Cousin Xie gone?" Peng Silang quietly asked Peng Erlang.
"What?" Peng Erlang was taken aback, not expecting that he was involved.
"Have you confessed your feelings to Cousin Xie like I have? I'm not stupid; I can tell you're interested in her." Peng Erlang said smugly.
Lu Zheng, Xue Qianyu, and Peng Ze looked at Peng Silang like he was an idiot. "Aren't you an idiot? You've been flirting with that girl for years and haven't even realized your own feelings. What else is that but being an idiot?"
“Hehe…” Peng Erlang chuckled and said, “I have already written back to Kuncheng and asked my grandfather and eldest uncle to make preparations for me. I have asked my eldest aunt and my mother to go to my seventh aunt’s house to propose marriage. Of course, this must have been approved by Yiyi. So, Silang, you will soon have a second sister-in-law.”
Seventh Aunt is Xie Zhiyi's mother. Before she got married, she was the seventh child among the women in the entire Peng family. The Peng family did not split up. Apart from Old Master Peng's lineage, the other children were ranked as a whole family.
Peng Silang heard mockery and contempt in his second brother's words, and he subconsciously looked at Huo Yanyu.
Goodness gracious, my silly sister lost the competition. Am I going to suffer her merciless scolding for the next few days?
