There is Room For the Poor Daughter

"What, the Dong family doesn't agree?!"

Knowing that the Dong family was unwilling to marry the Yuan family, Yuan Yonghao was both surprised and disappointed: "Why?"

Mrs. Yuan's face is not very good, the child is her own, and her son's proposal for marriage was rejected. As a mother, she is not in a good mood.

"As soon as I showed my style, I was distracted by both Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Dong. Your father mentioned it to Mr. Dong in the front yard, and Mr. Dong also vaguely swept over."

"From top to bottom, the Dong family never thought of marrying our family." He said, looking at Yuan Yonghao, "Child, listen to mother, forget Miss Dong, mother will find you a better one."

Yuan Yonghao didn't respond, at this moment he was immersed in loss.

This is the first time he has liked a girl, and the first time he has a heartbeat.

Are you going to miss it?

"No, I have to ask."

Ask Miss Dong why she doesn't agree?

With that said, Yuan Yonghao was about to get up and leave.

General Yuan Da looked at the eldest son's devastated appearance, frowned immediately, and scolded: "Stop for me, you are not allowed to go anywhere today."

Yuan Yonghao insisted on asking the reason, and looked at General Yuan with a face full of insistence: "Father, my son will not be reconciled unless he asks why, so don't stop me."

General Yuan snorted coldly: "What is there to ask, marriage is something you want and I want, but others don't want to, so what if you ask the reason?"

"Why don't you have a wife, look at what you look like now? The Dong family girl is not bad, it's good to be able to marry, but if you can't marry you, you won't be alive?"

"There are thousands of good girls in Xiliang. Without Miss Dong, Miss Huanbao and Miss Bei, would it be possible that you would hang yourself on a tree?"

Yuan Haoyang was not persuaded, and stubbornly said: "There are many good girls, but I only like her one."

Hearing this, General Yuan was very angry: "You bastard, you didn't listen to what I said just now, did you?"

Seeing that the father and son were at a stalemate, Mrs. Yuan hurriedly stood up to ease the atmosphere: "Okay, don't say a few words."

Mrs. Yuan signaled that General Yuan should stop talking, walked to Yuan Yonghao's side, and pulled him to sit down again: "Mother knows that you are feeling very sad right now, but marriage matters should never be forced."

"As the saying goes, strong melons are not sweet."

Yuan Yonghao retorted: "The melon I like is not sweet, and I am happy to eat it."

Mrs. Yuan choked and tapped Yuan Yonghao's forehead: "You just think about yourself, have you ever thought about Miss Dong?"

"If Miss Dong doesn't want to marry into our house, you just brought her home. Do you think she can be happy? Can your life be better?"

Yuan Yonghao was silent.

Mrs. Yuan sighed and put her arms around her son's shoulders: "Listen to my mother, forget about Miss Dong. When the horse racing conference is over, we will go back to Liangdu. After returning, Mother will definitely choose someone better than Miss Dong for you. daughter in law."

"If you don't like Liangdu, let's write a letter back to Beijing and ask your aunt to help you choose a lady in the capital. Mother still doesn't believe it, there are so many good girls in the world, and you can't find one better than Miss Dong. ?"

Yuan Yonghao knew that his parents did not want him to go to Dong's house, so he pursed his lips, but he was thinking in his heart that he must ask 'Miss Dong' to ask him clearly.

There is no fixed time for the horse racing conference. It is usually held from June to July, depending on the specific day.

Since the year before last, the horse racing conference has been set on the Qixi Festival in July.

"Uncle Dong set the horse racing conference on the Qixi Festival, wouldn't he want to be old in the month?" Xiao Keyan asked with a smile.

Dong Jingyi smiled and nodded: "Don't say it, you really got it right."

"It is difficult for soldiers to marry on the frontier. My father has always been concerned about this. Qixi Festival is the Girls' Day. On this day, girls will go out to play together. If the horse racing conference is set on this day, more girls will come to watch the game."

"The heroic man who rides on the back of a horse and gallops will be more popular with girls no matter what. Judging from the number of weddings held in the military town family area the previous year and last year, this effect is very good."

"By the way, you have to prepare a hand-embroidered purse that day."

Xiao Ke looked puzzled: "Why?"

Dong Jingyi smiled mysteriously: "You have to take precautions."

Xiao Keyan was even more puzzled: "Prevention for what?"

Dong Jingyi smiled and said, "Prevent someone from falling in love with you and asking you for a purse. The Qixi Festival is a festival for girls to show their ingenuity. If you really like a man, you can give him the purse."

Xiao Keyan smiled 'hehe': "I don't think anyone has the guts."

In fact, since she got married, there have been a lot of people attacking her in the open and secret, but none of the men who really dared to make trouble in front of her and express their hearts to her.

Either she is concerned about her status as a princess, or she is afraid of her father, her brother, and her younger brother.

Thinking of this, Xiao Keyan couldn't help thinking of Yuan Yonghao, and his expression paused slightly.

The reason why this guy impressed her was his boldness.

Dong Jingyi: "If you don't reveal your identity, I think more than half of the men who participate in the horse racing conference will be courteous to you."

Xiao Keyan was amused: "You are too exaggerated! Although everyone in the world likes beauty, they are very rational when it comes to life-long events, especially men. Under normal circumstances, they will only choose conditions. A girl just like them."

"For a girl who is too good, they will instinctively retreat. One is that they are afraid that they will not be able to climb high, the other is that they are afraid of losing face if they are rejected, and the third is that they are afraid of paying too high a cost."

Said, smiling confidently.

"Even if I don't reveal my identity, there are not many people who really dare to get close to me."

Dong Jingyi's expression froze, and then she suddenly said: "If you don't say it, I haven't thought about it carefully. Now that I think about it carefully, what you said is really right."

No wonder she participated in the horse racing convention two years ago, and no one asked her for a purse, but the two maids next to her received a lot of goodwill.

That's right, one's identity can be concealed, but one's bearing cannot be concealed from others. People like them, who have studied management and housekeeping since childhood, are naturally different from ordinary girls.

Just like a princess, even if she is usually approachable, she will be a little more dignified and unoffensive than ordinary people in her gestures.

Dong Jingyi looked at Xiao Keyan: "What if someone asks you for a purse?"

Xiao Keyan said with a smile: "If you really dare to come to us, either your family background is very good, or you are very confident in yourself, or you have the ability, or you are outstanding. If you really want such a person, it's okay to know a thing or two, and the wallet is fine. ."

Dong Jingyi asked with a smile, "Ke Yan, you are already eighteen, have you really thought about what kind of concubine you are looking for?"

These words stopped Xiao Keyan: "I don't know, I just think that if you want to find someone you like and like yourself, just like my father and my mother who love each other, support each other, and never give up."

Dong Jingyi: "But what do you like?"

Xiao Keyan was asked again: "I like it" and looked at Dong Jingyi uncertainly, "It is mentioned in the script that I like someone, and my heart will pound when I see him."

Saying that, he took Dong Jingyi's hand, "Don't you like my cousin Xue? When you see him, does your heart beat faster?"

These words made Dong Jingyi very embarrassed to ask, she didn't want to answer, but looking at Xiao Keyan's expectant eyes, she nodded shyly.

After getting a positive answer, Xiao Keyan sighed: "I've never met anyone who made my heart beat faster when I've grown up so much."

Dong Jingyi: "Maybe it's because you are always with the princes and princesses, and you have seen too many powerful people, which has raised your eyesight, so you may think that people who we think are not bad are just average? "

Xiao Keyan shrugged: "Maybe."

It's not good to continue talking about this topic. Dong Jingyi asked instead, "It's the end of June, why hasn't the prince and princess come to Ganzhou yet?"

Xiao Keyan pouted: "I must have been to the two-person world, don't worry, they will definitely be there before the horse racing conference starts."

After speaking, he looked at the sky and smiled: "It's so boring to stay at home. The weather is good today. Let's go to the racecourse for two laps?"

Dong Jingyi didn't want to stay in the room, she nodded immediately: "Okay."

During this time, Dong Zhenghua was helping out at the racecourse. The two of them told Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Dong before they could go out.

The racecourse was built on the open lawn outside Ganzhou City. There were no buildings around, but a lot of tents were set up.

At this moment, in the largest tent in the center, Dong Zhenghua is busy with the people under his hands,

With so many people attending the races, they have to think through everything to avoid accidents.

When Xiao Keyan and Dong Jingyi came, Dong Zhenghua was about to go to the stable to check whether the horses' hooves were up.

"Why are you here?"

Xiao Keyan smiled and said, "The weather is nice, I want to come out and run two laps."

Dong Zhenghua was silent for a while: "There are too many people on the racecourse these two days. You two will wait for me in the tent first. When I'm done, I'll accompany you to the horse race."

Xiao Keyan hurriedly said: "Big Brother Dong, you are busy with your own business, don't worry about us."

Dong Zhenghua shook his head and insisted that the two wait for him in the tent: "The horse racing conference is getting closer, and many competitors have come to familiarize themselves with the venue."

"Many of them are riding wild horses that have not been tamed for a long time. It is very strong. If you don't pay attention, you may collide with others. You must wait for me, otherwise, I will tell my grandmother when I get home, next time you I can't come out."

Seeing that Xiao Keyan and Dong Jingyi both nodded and agreed, Dong Zhenghua hurriedly left.

Xiao Keyan looked inside the tent, picked up the list of winners from previous years on the table, and saw the first name on the list, Xiu Mei couldn't help but pick it up.

Yuan Yonghao!

Whether it's horse racing or shooting, this man is number one!

It's good, but the character is too bad.

At this moment, a girl from the Tongzhi family in Ganzhou came to find Dong Jingyi.

"I just looked like my elder sister from a distance. I didn't expect it to be true. My elder sister is the best at picking horses. This time I have to help me pick a docile horse. I also want to ride two laps on the racecourse."

The relationship between Tongzhi's family and Dong's family is not bad, Dong Jingyi is not easy to refuse, she looks up at Xiao Keyan, and wants to ask her to go.

Xiao Keyan saw it and said with a smile, "Go quickly, I'll be here for a while."

Dong Jingyi knew that she was impatient to socialize, so she nodded and said, "I'll be back soon."

Xiao Keyan smiled and watched Dong Jingyi leave, and then continued to look at the list of winners.

Yuan Yonghao!

Yuan Yonghao!

Yuan Yonghao!

Yuan Yonghao!

Since Yuan Yonghao began to participate in the horse racing conference at the age of sixteen, for four consecutive years, he has ranked first in horse riding and shooting every year.

Just when Xiao Keyan wanted to turn forward, the curtain was lifted again.

When Xiao Keyan heard the movement, she thought it was Dong Jingyi who had returned, turned her head and asked, "Why so quickly?"

Looking at the person who strode into the tent, the voice suddenly stopped in summer.

Xiao Keyan put down the list of winners and looked at Yuan Yonghao who entered the tent slightly unhappy: "What are you doing here?"

Yuan Yonghao looked at Xiao Keyan: "I'm looking for you!"

Compared with the feisty and cheerfulness of the previous meetings, Yuan Yonghao's face this time was extraordinarily serious and solemn, which made Xiao Keyan a little puzzled.

"What are you doing with me?" They don't know each other so well, do they?

Yuan Yonghao took a few steps closer to Xiao Keyan again.

Xiao Keyan couldn't help but step back: "If you have something to say, what are you doing so close?"

Yuan Yonghao looked at Xiao Keyan's appearance that he couldn't avoid him, and his already lost heart became more and more uncomfortable: "You hate me so much?"

"what?"

Xiao Keyan is a little confused, what is this?

This person's character is indeed not good, but they have nothing to do with it. You are you, and I am me.

Yuan Yonghao has never liked grinding, he took a deep breath, and summoned up his courage to look at Xiao Keyan: "Can you tell me why you don't agree? Do you think I'm not good enough? You say, I can change me. must change."

"what?"

Xiao Keyan's doubtful mouth opened, and she looked at Yuan Yonghao in shock.

I'm afraid this person is not really mentally ill, right?

What does it mean? She understands the literal meaning, but if you tell her this, why can't she understand it at all?

Yuan Yonghao is still trying to fight for himself: "I reflected on it several times, and I think it may be that when you and I contacted you a few times, I behaved a little rambunctiously, and this made you unhappy."

Xiao Keyan thought to himself, you still know yourself Meng Lang. Just as he was about to say a few words, he was startled on the spot by Yuan Yonghao's next words.

"But please believe me, I just like you too much, and I want to express myself too eagerly to win your attention. If you don't like me like this, I will change it in the future."

Xiao Keyan Xingxing's eyes widened, and she looked at Yuan Yonghao blankly.

Seeing her like this, Yuan Yonghao took another step forward, not daring to get too close: "Please give me a chance, I really like you, you are the first girl that made my heart flutter, I don't want to miss you like this ."

Xiao Keyan was still a little bit unable to regain his senses. Looking at the Chicheng and the hope in Yuan Yonghao's eyes, the drumming sound of 'dong dong dong' suddenly sounded in his ears.

Seeing that Xiao Keyan didn't speak, Yuan Yonghao was a little anxious: "Miss Dong, I know you are a lady, I am so straightforward"

"stop!"

Xiao Keyan suddenly reached out to stop Yuan Yonghao: "What do you call me?"

Although Yuan Yonghao was a little inexplicable, he continued: "Miss Dong, it is indeed a bit rude for me to come to you rashly, but I really want to know, why do you disagree with the Yuan family's proposal?"

"It's my family, I'm not boasting, it's really good, I'm a person, you have seen it." He said, patted his chest, "It's definitely a strong man, marry me, I will live forever good to you."

Listening to Yuan Yonghao's confession, Xiao Keyan rubbed her stiff cheeks, not knowing what to do with her expression. Seeing Yuan Yonghao looking at him expectantly, she couldn't help walking in the tent.

After a while, Xiao Keyan turned to look at Yuan Yonghao and asked, "Your family proposed marriage to Dong's family, but who did you propose to marry?"

Yuan Yonghao said decisively: "Of course it's you!"

Hearing this, Xiao Keyan was speechless.
