Chapter 15 Asking for Marriage
Zhao Xinghe nodded: "Let the kitchen cook me something delicious. I have been eating vegetables for a year, and I really want to eat some meat."
Shen Ding immediately said: "I'll go right away."
Xia Yuwei said: "Let those few boys who are waiting in the main courtyard come in."
Shen Ding went out in response, and after a while, he brought back four boys, all of whom looked responsible and honest. Xia Yuwei said: "These four are serving in the main courtyard, Yu Feng, Yu Lei, Yu Tian, and Yu Shan. "
Zhao Xinghe laughed: "Weiwei, you are a maid and you don't give me any arrangements."
Xia Yuwei grabbed his arm and said coquettishly: "If you are not allowed to use the maid, you are not allowed."
Zhao Xinghe smiled fondly: "Okay, listen to Weiwei, if you don't agree, don't allow it. From now on, I will listen to you in everything at home."
Xia Yuwei said: "You will live here and prepare for martial arts every day. But now, you have to follow me to see my father."
Zhao Xinghe felt nervous and happy at the same time, "Okay."
Shen Ding went to ask for a carriage, and the two of them came all the way to the Changping Marquis' Mansion.
Xia Yan was in the study room when someone came to inform him that Xia Yuwei had something important to say, so he said, "Let the eldest lady come in."
Xia Yuwei and Zhao Xinghe entered the study together. When Xia Yan saw Zhao Xinghe, he exclaimed, "This young man is very handsome and tall. He is quite impressive. Which family are you from?"
Zhao Xinghe said politely: "Master Xiahou, I am not a noble son."
Xia Yan said: "Then where does your father work?"
Zhao Xinghe said: "I am not a son of an official either."
Xia Yan was very disappointed: "Are you from a poor family?"
Zhao Xinghe said: "Yes."
Xia Yan said: "You came with my daughter, do you want to marry me?"
Zhao Xinghe knelt on the ground: "Master Hou, although I come from a poor family, I have learned some skills. I know that I am not worthy of Weiwei now, but I will work hard to improve. I plan to participate in the martial arts competition next year. As soon as I can go to high school, please betroth Weiwei to me."
Xia Yan sighed and asked Xia Yuwei: "What do you mean?"
Xia Yuwei said with a smile: "If he fails next year, I will wait for him to take the exam again in three years."
Xia Yan was so angry that he wanted to hit her: "If he fails in his lifetime, will you wait for him forever?"
Xia Yuwei said with a smile: "Dad, you really understand me."
Xia Yan looked at her playful smile and sighed: "No wonder so many people came to propose marriage, but you didn't agree. You kid..."
Xia Yuwei said: "Dad, I know you love me the most, but I have grown up and have my own ideas."
Xia Yan said: "This child is good, but it is not easy for a child from a poor family to stand out."
Zhao Xinghe said: "Master Hou, I have to give it a try to know if I can do it. I have decided on Weiwei, and I will not marry anyone except her in this life. Please make it happen."
Xia Yan sighed and said, "Okay, okay, get out of here, you're giving me a headache."
Xia Yuwei smiled and said, "Thank you, dad."
Zhao Xinghe kowtowed heavily: "Thank you, Lord Marquis."
Xia Yan said: "I will only give you three chances. If you fail the exam three times, don't waste your efforts."
Xia Yuwei said: "When the time comes, I will marry him directly."
Xia Yan said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Xia Yuwei said: "It takes seven years to take the exam three times. I was already 20 at that time. I have been waiting for him for so many years. If I don't marry him, it will be a loss for me."
Xia Yan yelled angrily: "Get out of here."
Xia Yuwei pulled Zhao Xinghe up and said, "Okay, dad, let's get out of here." After saying that, she pulled Zhao Xinghe out.
As soon as Zhao Xinghe came out of the study, he said: "Weiwei, you are not afraid of making your father angry."
Xia Yuwei said: "Sooner or later you will get angry once, and if you finish it early, you will feel better."
Zhao Xinghe patted her head helplessly: "Weiwei, don't worry, I will work hard."
In the Ronghua Hall, Mrs. Xia was chatting with Grandma Li when she heard a maid say: "Miss, you brought a particularly handsome young man to the master's study."
When Mrs. Xia heard this, she was very surprised: "Do you know whose young master he is?"
The maid said: "I don't know him. But this young man is said to be very handsome, tall and very talented."
After hearing this, Mrs. Xia said: "What do I mean, there are so many people proposing marriage, but she doesn't like any of them. It turns out that there is someone she likes."
Grandma Li said: "Go to the study and invite Mr. Hou over."
The maid took the order, and not long after, Xia Yan came to Ronghua Hall.
As soon as Mrs. Xia saw him, she asked: "That young man..."
Xia Yan said angrily: "Don't mention him, I have a headache."
Mrs. Xia and Aunt Li looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
Xia Yan drank a cup of tea and let out a long breath: "This girl... really won't give up until she pisses me off."
Mrs. Xia said: "Is there anything wrong with that young man?"
Xia Yan said: "At first glance, that man is not only handsome and tall, but also smart and good-looking. He is calm and unhurried, and he advances and retreats in a measured way. Although he didn't say a few words, it was obvious that he had a deep love for Yuwei..."
Mrs. Xia said: "Isn't this great? Why do you have a headache?"
Xia Yan said: "I have a headache because he comes from a poor family."
Mrs. Xia immediately said: "It's not okay to come from a poor family. How can Yuwei marry a child from a poor family? I can't let her suffer this."
Xia Yan said: "Except for his background, this kid is good at everything. If you didn't tell me, he would stand there and it would be impossible to tell that he was from a poor family. He has the air of a wealthy young man. The worst thing is that he knelt in front of me and swore
He will not marry Yuwei in this life, and he will not marry Yuwei, a stinky girl. You said..."
Mrs. Xia immediately said to Grandma Li: "Go and find me that stinky girl. I want to see how she won't marry anyone but him."
Xia Yan stopped her and said, "Don't worry. The young man said that he will participate in the martial arts examination next year and must be named on the gold medal list, and then come to marry Yuwei."
After hearing this, Mrs.
Xia Yan looked at her and said, "So I said, don't worry, wait until next year. Anyway, Yuwei is still young, so it doesn't matter if she waits for a year."
That's all Mrs. Xia did. Xia Yan chatted with her for a few words and returned to the study.
