In the Youshi period, in the backyard of the Duke's Mansion of the State of E.
Two beautiful women in their thirties, with dignified appearance, elegant temperament and plump figure, were sitting on the sofa chatting.
The two beautiful women are 80% similar in appearance. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that they are a pair of sisters.
They are dressed differently.
One is wearing a black skirt and a red hairpin on her head, which is full of jewels.
The other one was wearing a white undershirt, with a wooden hairpin on her head, and her face was facing the sky.
At this time, Hei Sumei, who was wearing a black dress, put down the letter in her hand and said with a smile:
"Sister, it's better now. We no longer have to worry about Ning'er's marriage."
Bai Suhua, a woman in a white dress, nodded, her face also unable to conceal her joy.
"Yes! Although we have never met the child, we know the Qin Mansion very well."
"In the future, when Ning'er gets married, we can feel more at ease."
Although Bai Suhua and Hei Sumei have been caring for their husbands and raising their children since they married Yuchi Gong, and have not been involved in foreign affairs, the two women still know something about Qin Ming, a man from Lantian County.
First, the Duke of E and the Qin government were engaged in the coal business.
Secondly, the Qin Mansion recently gave them many favorite things, such as soap and colored glass mirrors.
Therefore, the two women who are in charge of the financial power of the Duke's Mansion know the situation of the Qin Mansion better than other noble families in Chang'an City.
Of course, there is another reason why the two daughters immediately recognized the son-in-law after seeing Yu Chigong's letter.
They were two women who came from the military. From the bottom of their hearts, they hoped that their daughter could marry a general who could make a great name on the battlefield like them.
Personal experience lets them know that the sweet words of scholars are all meant to deceive young ladies. Only the iron-clad tenderness of generals is the best destination for women.
Besides, those who can go into battle to kill the enemy are not as good as those weak scholars.
Whether a man is in good health or not is related to a woman’s happiness in the rest of her life!
In Chang'an City, many of their "best friends" who were married to civil servants have not had sex a few times in the past year, which is extremely pitiful.
It's not like them. When Alang is at home, he will never sleep unless he fights for 300 rounds every night.
Based on this alone, these sisters are the most enviable existences in the circle of ladies in Chang'an City.
...
The two women discussed the contents of Yuchi Gong's letter for a while.
Suddenly, Hei Sumei said in a somewhat angry tone:
"It's true, Mr. Lang, since he knew that the child liked Ning'er, he didn't tell us."
"If we had known this, we should have asked Mr. Lang to call the child to the house and meet him."
Bai Suhua also showed regret when she heard this.
"Hasn't Ning'er seen that child before? Why don't we call her to ask?"
"Would you also like to hear her thoughts?"
When Hei Sumei heard this, she slapped her thigh suddenly and said:
"What my sister said is absolutely true."
With that said, Hei Sumei ordered her maid Cuihua to call Yuchi Wanning over.
About two quarters of an hour passed.
Yuchi Wanning, wearing a green undershirt, walked in with her maid Bai Ling.
She smiled sweetly, gave a blessing to the two beautiful women on the sofa, and said obediently:
"Daughter, I want to meet my two mothers."
"Mothers, you are calling your daughter here at such a late hour, but what are your instructions?"
"Ning'er, you're here. Come on, sit down quickly. We have something to tell you."
With that said, Hei Sumei stood up, took Yuchi Wanning's little hand and walked to the sofa to sit down.
Yuchi Wanning is in the middle, with Hei Sumei and Bai Suhua sitting on both sides of her.
Yuchi Wanning glanced at the envelope on the coffee table and found that the handwriting on the envelope was Yuchi Gong's. She couldn't help but ask:
"Did Dad write from Longyou?"
Hei Sumei smiled and nodded, then glanced at her sister.
Bai Suhua understood immediately. She took Yuchi Wanning's other hand and said softly:
"Daughter, your father wrote to say that he plans to arrange a marriage for you. So we want to ask your opinion."
Yuchi Wanning's heart tightened and he subconsciously refused:
"My daughter is still young and doesn't want to get married yet!"
After saying that, Yuchi Wanning took Bai Suhua's arm and said coquettishly:
"Er Niang, my daughter is begging you. Can you please reply to dad quickly and ask him to give up this idea?"
Bai Suhua was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and looked at her sister subconsciously.
Hei Sumei glanced at her sister with some hatred.
Then, he took Yuchi Wanning's arm and persuaded him earnestly:
"Daughter, don't be too busy refusing!"
"Your father said in the letter that the child is very fond of you. In order to get your father to agree to this marriage. The child has been on the battlefield these days, but he has worked hard to achieve great achievements in battle."
Yuchi Wanning, who originally had a glimmer of hope and wanted to ask who the man was, became even more unhappy when he heard what his aunt said.
His sweetheart is a military recorder and it is impossible to achieve military exploits by joining the army.
In the attic, Er Baoshen, who had been staying with Yu Chi Wan Ning for a whole day, was also anxious.
Bai Ling held his heavy chest with both hands, his heart almost in his throat.
[My lady! You must never agree! ]
[The food in Qin Mansion is so delicious! ]
Yuchi Wanning was silent for a while and sighed:
"Hey, two mothers, let me tell you the truth, my daughter already has someone she likes."
As soon as these words came out, Madam Black and White was stunned.
Only Bai Ling, who was behind the three of them, breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest a few times.
[I am so surprised. ]
After Hei Sumei and Bai Suhua reacted, their hearts of gossip suddenly ignited.
They each took one of Yuchi Wanning's arms, their eyes full of curiosity.
"Tell me, mother, who is he, the child of a minister in the court, and how do you know him?"
"Tell me, mother, what does he do? Is he a white man or an official? How old is he?"
The two beautiful women asked almost simultaneously.
Because the distance between the three of them was too close, Yuchi Wanning could only feel the buzzing in his head.
Yuchi Wanning shook his head and said with a red face:
"You have so many questions, how can I ask my daughter to answer them?"
Mrs. Black and White said in unison:
"We care about you too! If you don't tell us, how can we reply to your father?"
Yuchi Wanning looked at the two mothers who looked like they could not tell the truth and would not give up.
He sighed and said a little coyly:
"Okay! That's all my daughter says."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Black and White each took a piece of pastry from the coffee table and stuffed it into their mouths in unison.
He looked like he was listening carefully.
Yuchi Wanning rolled his eyes and whispered:
"I knew you would be like this."
