Young Master Liu's body trembled, and his face instantly became astonished.
"What? What did you say? Tell me again what he came for?"
"Go back to the young master. Thank you for your official arrival."
Young Master Liu took a few deep breaths to calm down his turbulent mood.
"The marriage proposal is here?"
"Back to Master, that's right."
Qi Yun, the third princess, Qinglian, Yun Xiaoxi, Xue Bizhu and the other sisters all showed surprise when they heard Liu Song's words.
Especially the reaction on Qinglian's pretty face was surprised and mixed with a bit of complexity.
Liu Mingzhi raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, then turned and looked towards the gate of Liu Mansion with a sad expression.
"Komatsu."
"The little one is here."
"Who's here?"
"Back to the young master, Mr. Xie is the only one here."
Young Master Liu immediately withdrew his gaze and looked at Liu Song with a frown.
"What? Only Xie Yun came here alone?
Didn't his father, Xie Qingtong, and his mother, Meng Li, come with them? Didn't the matchmaker come? "
Liu Song shook his head silently: "To tell you what the young master is saying, except for Mr. Xie Yun Xie, I didn't see anyone else outside the mansion."
Young Master Liu put his hands behind his back and looked in the direction of the mansion door again with a puzzled expression.
"Isn't this a joke? Why would he propose marriage alone?
This kid is not a fool, so he doesn't even understand such a simple rule.
Liu Song, are you sure this guy came to our house to propose marriage? "
Hearing Young Master Liu's question, Liu Song nodded without hesitation.
"Back to the young master, I am very sure.
When he was at the gate of the mansion just now, Mr. Xie personally told the younger one that he was here to formally propose marriage. "
When Young Master Liu heard Liu Song's affirmative answer, he frowned and let out a long breath.
"Huh-bastard, isn't this nonsense?"
Young Master Liu said something in an unhappy tone and turned to look at Qi Yun, Qing Lian, Murong Shan and the other sisters.
"Yun'er, Lian'er, Sister Ya, Wanyan, Xiaoxi..."
Upon hearing this, all the beauties turned around and looked at their husbands and bowed.
"Hey, my sisters are here."
"Yun'er, Sister Ya, Lian'er, Qing Shi, Sister Shan, when you sisters were young, you used to walk around the rivers and lakes all year round. Have you ever been to Xiangzhou?"
Qi Ya took two steps forward and nodded gently to Young Master Liu.
"Back to my husband, I have been to Xiangzhou before."
Liu Mingzhi immediately looked at Qi Ya and asked directly: "Sister Ya, when you were in Xiangzhou, you should have some knowledge of the customs there, right?"
"Yes, I understand somewhat."
"Then tell my husband, is it the custom over there that there is no matchmaker and one person comes to propose marriage?"
Qi Ya shook her head lightly at Liu Mingzhi without even thinking about it.
"Husband, as far as I know, the rules and customs regarding weddings and funerals there are not much different from those in the capital and other state capitals."
When Liu Mingzhi heard this, he frowned angrily.
"What kind of tricks is this Xie Qingtong trying to do to me, this young master!
With his character, even if he drank too much, he wouldn't do such a stupid thing. "
Qi Yun walked lightly in front of Young Master Liu, raised her jade neck and gestured towards the door of the mansion.
"Husband, since you don't understand what's going on, don't think so much.
I think it’s better to let Xie Yun in first.
After we see him, we can ask him what's going on and everything will be clear. "
"That's what my husband means."
Liu Mingzhi replied to Qi Yun, turned around and waved to Liu Song.
"Xiao Song, let Xie Yun go to the living room first."
"Yes, I'll take my leave first."
After Liu Song went away, Young Master Liu sighed with emotion and turned to look at Qinglian.
"Lian'er."
"I'm here."
"Lian'er, in the past few days, has this girl Yiyi ever talked to you in private about her life-long events?"
Qi Yun, Qi Ya, the Queen, Gumo Rongrong and other sisters heard their husband's question, and the sisters looked at each other, and then all their eyes fell on Qinglian.
"Yes, yes, sister Lian'er, did you know about this in advance?"
"Sister Lian'er, has Yiyi disclosed this information to you before?"
"Yes, sister Lian'er, children Yiyi and Xie Yun will go out together on the street or for a walk outside the city every now and then.
In this way, it is impossible not to inform this girl Yiyi that Xie Yun came to our house to propose marriage.
In the past few days, has Yiyi given you any advice in this regard? "
"Sister Lian'er?"
Qinglian looked at the inquiring looks of the sisters, turned to look at Young Master Liu, her expression was complicated, and she shook her head melancholy.
"Husband, sisters, if I knew what happened today in advance, do you think I would still react like this?"
"Huh? Didn't you reveal anything at all?"
"This this!"
"Hey, this girl Yiyi is really good at keeping secrets.
It's a life-long matter, such an important matter, why doesn't she know how to tell us mothers in private? "
"Sister Ya, sister Qingshi, don't say that, this is just our own guess.
Maybe, Xie Yun didn't tell Yiyi that he was coming to our house to propose marriage today.
This girl Yiyi doesn't know this herself, so how can she tell her sisters. "
"That's right, sister Lingyi is right. Maybe Yiyi herself doesn't know about it."
"By the way, where is this girl Yiyi?"
"I don't know. I haven't seen her since breakfast."
Qinglian adjusted her clothes, looked at her husband and a group of sisters, and sighed softly.
"Hey, husband, sisters, as the saying goes, no one can keep a good girl, and this sentence is absolutely correct."
"Oh, sister Lian'er, this isn't a bad thing, just be open to it."
"That's right, good sister, as the saying goes, men should marry when they are young, women should marry when they are young, and women should marry when they are young.
For Yiyi, this is a good thing, and we parents should be happy for her. "
"Sister, this girl Yiyi is not young now, and it's time for her to get married.
No matter how reluctant you are to let her leave our side, you have to be more open-minded.
We can't let our daughters stay away from marriage all their lives just because we don't want to, right? "
Ren Qingxin spit out the melon seed shell from the corner of her lips, glanced at Young Master Liu with a resentful look, reached out to hold Qinglian's jade hand and nodded vigorously.
"Yes, yes, sister Lian, this is a great thing, you should be happy.
My little sister has long wanted to get married, but there is a certain person who still refuses to marry! "
Qinglian listened to Ren Qingxin's resentful tone, and the melancholy in her heart was suddenly washed away a little.
She turned around and looked around at the good sisters around her, her eyes playfully looking at Young Master Liu and licking her red lips.
"Sisters, after hearing your words of comfort regarding Yiyi's life-long event, I feel quite happy in my heart.
I just don’t know if someone’s mood can be as happy as mine. "
Qi Yun, the third princess, Wenren Yunshu and the other beauties all looked at Young Master Liu's face involuntarily when they heard Qinglian's slightly provocative words.
After seeing their husband's reaction, the expressions of all the beauties became strange.
Young Master Liu was seen looking unhappy at this time, and he was mumbling something softly through gritted teeth.
The queen tightened her cloak and leaned her waist slightly towards Young Master Liu.
"You bastard, damn you, you dare to come and steal my little cotton-padded jacket.
If you hadn't been protected by Yiyi, I would have had to skin you.
That bastard belongs to your uncle. "
After hearing Master Liu's Didi Gugu's words clearly, the Queen couldn't help but look at the good sisters next to her with laughter.
"Pfft, you're swearing!"
When Qi Yun, the third princess, Ling Weier and her sisters heard the queen's words, no one showed surprise on their faces.
Based on their sisters' understanding of their husband's character, they could roughly guess something just from his expression.
Qi Ya put away the smile on her lips and stretched out her hand to tug on Mr. Liu's sleeve.
"Husband."
"Ah? Ah! Sister Ya, what's wrong?"
Qi Ya turned around and pointed in the direction of the mansion door, and raised her hand to straighten the cloak on Young Master Liu.
"Husband, Liu Song has been at the mansion for a while, we can't just stand here all the time, right?"
Young Master Liu exhaled hot breath into his palms and turned to look at Qinglian.
"Lian'er."
"Hey, I'm here."
"Is this girl Yiyi at home now?"
"Back to my husband, I don't know who I am.
After breakfast in the morning, I never saw her again. "
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly and turned to look at the other beauties.
"Yun'er, Yan'er, do you sisters know where this girl Yiyi is?"
"Back to my husband, I don't know about you either."
"never seen it."
"Husband, we sisters were still discussing where this girl Yiyi is."
Liu Mingzhi looked up at the courtyard where Liu Yiyi lived in Xiyuan, and then waved to the three sisters Qinglian, Qi Ya, and Wenren Yunshu.
"Lian'er, Sister Ya, Shu'er."
"My sisters are here."
"You sisters, go to Yiyi's residence immediately to see if this girl is in her room.
If so, take her to find her husband immediately. "
"Hey, I know."
"Husband, let's go to Yiyi's place first."
"Okay, okay, go quickly."
"Yeah, yeah, sisters, I'll take my leave first."
"etc."
Qinglian, Qi Ya and the others immediately stopped and looked at Young Master Liu with doubts in their eyes.
"Husband, what's wrong?"
"Husband, do you have any other orders?"
"If Yiyi is in her room, when you get to the living room, let this girl wait in the back hall.
Wait until your husband lets her come out, then let her come out. "
"Hey, I understand."
"Okay, I understand, my sisters."
"Go ahead."
"Yes, sir, see you later."
"Sister Shan, Qingshi, Yan'er, Xiaoxi."
"Husband?"
"You sisters, go to Feifei, Yaoyao, Yue'er, Lingyun and their sisters respectively."
"Yes, my sister I understand."
"Xiaoxi, Wei'er, Lingyi."
"My sisters are here."
"You go and look for it in the garden. We will meet in the living room later."
"I know it."
After all the beauties left one after another, Young Master Liu turned and looked at the children who were still practicing martial arts on the snow in front of him.
"Yun'er, let the child stop and have a rest."
"Hey, I'm going over right now."
Qi Yun nodded slightly, and immediately walked towards the children with smiling eyes.
"To put it mildly, Yao'er, Rongrong, and Bizhu, let's go to the living room."
The Queen, Huyan Yunyao and the other sisters immediately staggered half of their bodies and waved their hands with smiles.
"My husband, please come first."
"Come on, don't do this to me husband, let's go together."
"coming."
It took about half a cup of tea.
Liu Mingzhi, the Queen and his wife appeared together in the courtyard outside the living room.
"Husband, should we go in directly, or wait for Sister Yun, Sister Yan'er and the others?"
Liu Mingzhi lit a pot of dry smoke and walked slowly to the nearby corridor and sat down.
"There's no rush, let's wait for Yun'er, Yan'er and the other sisters."
"Yeah, sisters, I understand."
Mr. Liu sat on the bench under the corridor, staring at the warm sun in the sky, and smoked a dry cigarette one after another.

The empress, Gu Mo Rongrong, and the other sisters saw their husband's appearance, put away the smiles on their pretty faces, and looked at each other silently.
The Queen took off the wine bag from Liu's waist, walked to Young Master Liu and sat down.
Sisters Huyan Yunyao, Xue Bizhu and others also walked to the side and sat down one after another.
"Heartless."
Young Master Liu looked startled and turned to look at the Queen: "Huh? What's wrong?"
The Queen uncorked the wine and handed the wine bag over with a smile.
"Hey, want a drink?"
Liu Mingzhi nodded happily, reached out to take the wine bag from the Queen's hand and took a sip of the wine.
"Phew--what a drink."
The Queen raised her hand to fan the lingering smoke that Young Master Liu exhaled, and leaned on the guardrail with her bright eyes narrowed.
"Heartless."
"Um."
"If you are really reluctant to let Yiyi get married, then let her stay with us for a few more years.
How dare Xie Qingtong not listen to your words? "
As soon as the Queen's words came out, Xue Bizhu and her sisters nodded in agreement.
"Husband, if you are really reluctant to leave Yiyi and go out, why not just leave it like this."
"Husband, I second my suggestion. If it doesn't work, let's let Yiyi leave the cabinet two years later."
"Yes, yes, I think what sister Wanyan said makes sense. Otherwise, I will keep Yiyi for another two years."
Liu Mingzhi turned to look at the queen and her sisters. He was silent for a long time with complicated eyes, and shook his head with a wry smile.
"Hahaha, put it mildly, Yao'er, I understand what you mean.
But, as you sisters just said.
It is the first time for men to get married, and for the first time women to get married.
This girl Yiyi is not young anymore. It is time for her to leave the court and get married.
After all, women are not allowed to stay in college! "
