Su Xian ignored the boy's daze, walked forward to the sheep, leaned over and patted the belly of the grazing sheep, and said with a smile:
"This one is also very fat, not bad!"
The boys continued to be sluggish.
Su Xian patted the deer again, stared at the antlers on the deer's head for a long time, touched his chin and fell into deep thought, his eyes flashing with light.
Continuing to walk forward, Su Xian's expression changed slightly. What did he see?
Rice and wine are fine and can be eaten, but... what the hell are brocade cloths and various exquisite utensils?
Su Xian was stunned for a moment, not understanding Liu Huixiang's intention and simply too lazy to think about it.
He turned around to face a group of young men with dull faces, and loudly ordered:
"Bring me a knife!"
"..."
at the same time.
Buddhist temple.
Liu Huixiang was worshiping the Buddha devoutly, and the bright sunshine came through the door, stretching her slim and plump body.
Everything was quiet.
Suddenly, Zhang Cuihua ran over and shouted, breaking the silence: "Miss, Miss, something is wrong!"
Liu Huixiang opened her eyes, sighed softly, stood up slowly, looked at Zhang Cuihua who was running towards her, and said, "Cuihua, this is a forbidden area of the Buddhist hall, please keep your voice down."
"Yes, Miss." Zhang Cuihua lowered her voice, but to ordinary people it still sounded like beating a drum.
"What's going on? Why are you so panicked?" Liu Huixiang shook her head.
"Miss, what's wrong... After the young master returned home, he found a knife and wanted to... kill the gift prepared by the young lady, and said he wanted to roast it and eat it." Zhang Cuihua said in a low voice.
"What did you say?!"
Liu Huixiang screamed in surprise, her volume was about the same as Zhang Cuihua's, which made Zhang Cuihua look stunned. Didn't she agree to keep her voice down in the Buddhist hall?
"The young master wants to eat the gift prepared by the young lady. The wild goose, sheep, deer, etc. are being slaughtered by the young master himself with a knife!" Zhang Cuihua repeated the story.
"slaughter……"
Liu Huixiang had black lines on her forehead and staggered. She was so shocked by Su Xian's behavior that she sat down on the ground. Zhang Cuihua panicked and rushed to help her.
"Take me over quickly and kill the gift of Nacai...unknown!"
"..."
In the open space in front of the mansion.
A dozen boys stood aside with stupefied faces, watching helplessly as Su Xian walked toward the wild goose with a knife in his hand. They hesitated to speak.
They had stopped him just now, but Su Xian gave them a hush-hush order and were not allowed to disturb him in handling the "ingredients" personally, otherwise he would be kicked out of the house.
"Master Hou, you must not..."
An older boy couldn't hold back, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Yang Zhilan, who faithfully followed Su Xian's orders, flew over, picked him up and threw him out of the house.
Su Xian ignored it and ordered two boys to hold down the struggling goose. With one hand, he held the big knife upside down and with the other hand, he plucked the feathers under the goose's neck and prepared to bleed it.
At this moment, just as his hand touched the feathers of the wild goose, Liu Huixiang's shout came from the distance:
"Husband, you must not do this, please stop!"
Su Xian turned around and saw Zhang Cuihua running towards Liu Huixiang with Liu Huixiang on her back, approaching in the blink of an eye.
Liu Huixiang ran over quickly, snatched the knife from Su Xian's hand, and stepped in front of Dayan.
"Madam, what are you doing..." Su Xian scratched his head with a puzzled look on his face, "Madam, hurry up and return the knife to your husband. Today, I will kill this wild goose with my own hands and roast it for you to eat."
"Husband, you can't!" Liu Huixiang couldn't laugh or cry, and hid the knife behind her back.
"Why not?" Su Xian wondered, isn't the purpose of buying the ingredients home just to kill them and eat them?
"Because... this is what I prepared for my husband... as a gift of acceptance!"
"What did you say?" Su Xian's expression changed drastically, and he stared into Liu Huixiang's eyes and asked, "The gift of acceptance? Prepared for me? Whose gift is it for?"
"..."
Half an hour later.
Main courtyard, living room.
"It turns out...it turns out...Madam, it turns out that you have colluded with Tang Shuwan a long time ago..." Su Xian looked complicated, with a look of shock and a hint of realization:
"I asked why Madam has such a good relationship with Tang Shuwan. Also, during the last trip, Tang Shuwan joined halfway... It turns out that you have been hiding this from me for so long!"
Liu Huixiang grabbed Su Xian's arm with both hands, lowered her eyebrows and said softly: "Husband, I'm sorry..."
Su Xian looked at her, felt soft, patted her shoulder gently and asked:
"What the hell does this happen?"
"This matter has to start before we get married..."
At the moment, Liu Huixiang told the cause and effect one by one.
After hearing this, Su Xian finally understood that the Tang family had been eyeing him for a long time. Liu Huixiang had long wanted to help Su Xian find a virtuous wife, so they hit it off immediately.
He rubbed his face and said slowly: "Just now, Uncle Shi came to me to discuss the marriage with Miss Tang."
Liu Huixiang lowered her head and said, "I have prepared a gift for my husband."
"However, I declined and did not agree." Su Xian added.
Liu Huixiang suddenly raised her head and looked at him in astonishment, her eyes full of doubts and confusion.
Su Xian patted her back gently and said with a smile: "I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to accept it for a while, so I made the excuse that I just became a marquis today and there are many things that need to be dealt with..."
"It turns out... it's to take care of my feelings..." Liu Huixiang took the initiative to throw herself into Su Xian's arms. She was extremely excited, and tears flowed down from her eyes, saying:
"In fact, my husband does not need to care about my feelings. You should focus on the overall situation. My husband is a new prince, and there will be countless people who want to marry me."
"I have personally known Tang Shuwan of the Tang family. She is really good and will be a good wife for my husband... I cannot rest assured that my husband will marry another woman."
"..."
"But madam, we just got married not long ago!" Su Xian still hesitated in his heart.
"Husband, you don't have to worry about me. Even if it's just for my sake, please rush to the Tang family with the gift of acceptance. It's best to settle the matter today."
"Today? It's too soon!"
Liu Huixiang wiped away her tears and pushed Su Xian towards the door of the mansion very vigorously. Su Xian knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, but he still asked after discussion:
"Today is really too fast. How about we wait ten days and a half?"
"No, husband, please leave quickly. I have already ordered people to load the gift of Nacai into the car..."
"you……"
After a while, Liu Huixiang pushed Su Xian out of the house.
Su Xian raised his eyes and saw that the gift of Nacai had indeed been loaded onto the carriage, and the coachman had been waiting for a long time.
Su Xian felt that it was too fast, and suddenly thought of a question: "But madam, whenever you come to propose marriage, you must be accompanied by a matchmaker or an elder, and we have nothing!"
Liu Huixiang pointed to the end of Dongcheng Street and said with a smile: "Husband, look there, the matchmaker is here!"
"Madam, you..." Su Xian suddenly felt a pain in his balls. How many arrangements and plans did Liu Huixiang secretly make for today's events?
After a while, the carriage arrived, and a man jumped out. Su Xian looked and saw that it was Lin Chuan's father... Lin Youcai!
Lin Youcai laughed and ran closer, bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings to the Marquis!"
