MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 11

  Chapter 11

  Wen Lan was a little surprised when he was outside the door.

  Heard early on that Wang You’s family was poor, his mother had been sick for many years, his father traveled all over the world, and resold some rare items from foreign countries. They were originally rare goods to live in, but because of his straightforward personality, he didn’t like dealing with the rich and powerful, so he could only make ends meet and make ends meet.

   But when he arrived at the gate, the Wang family was better than he had imagined. At least there was a passable house, and the word "Wang's House" was hung on the door with a wooden sign.

  When the person who called himself Wang You Shutong led him in, he couldn't help but look around.

  Although the house is small, it has all internal organs, and the layout is simple but not crude. It can be seen that the owner is somewhat knowledgeable.

  My first impression was quite similar to the Wen Mansion in my childhood.

  Wang You stood at the entrance of the main hall with his hands behind his back, waiting for him.

  After hearing what Wen Ning said last time, Wen Lan couldn't help but look at his face a few more times.

The complexion is fair and white, the black pupils are like ink, the bridge of the nose is high, and there is a very inconspicuous small mole on the left side, but it has a special charm on the clean and solemn face. It is Zhilan Yushu, a modest gentleman, which is indeed unmatched by many noblemen.

  Wen Lan couldn't help but sigh.

  Even if Wang You’s marriage contract is false, with his appearance and demeanor, how many aristocratic ladies in Beijing will extend olive branches to him once he is number one. What advantage does the Wen family have? Unless...Wen Ning can agree on the marriage with him before the palace examination.

  He rubbed his throbbing heart, and he didn't know what kind of evil he had fallen into in Ci'en Temple that day, and he actually wanted to match the two of them, causing all these troubles for nothing.

   "Lord Wen." Wang You bowed politely.

  Wen Lan hurriedly stopped her: "Forgive me, I'm the one who came to bother you."

  Wang You bowed his head lowly: "Please, Mr. Wen."

  Wen Lan followed Wang You's instructions and took a seat. Wang Qinsheng immediately brought tea and poured a cup for each of them.

   "I heard that Jingzhao Mansion has a lot of cases recently, Mr. Wen came here, but there are some things that I can do my best?"

  Although Wang Fu has always refused to allow it, Wang You would write some pleadings for others to subsidize the family a few years ago, and Wen Lan has been known for a long time for this. It's just that he only writes the pleadings and doesn't come forward to fight for others. Wen Lan only had the chance to meet him a few times this year.

"Recently, Beijing and central China are indeed not peaceful. During the three-year Spring Festival, candidates from all over the world come to Beijing. Although the general examination has ended, there are still a large number of candidates who want to wait for the results of the imperial examination before leaving. There are also many foreigners who came here to wait Seeing the number one scholar parading the streets, some gangsters fish in troubled waters, and take up several cases of theft every day." Wen Lan sighed, and said seriously, "But I am not here today for business."

  Wang You frowned slightly, looked at Wen Lan and said, "Master Wen, please tell me."

  Seeing his serious appearance, Wen Lan rolled in his stomach again when he had planned something.

Although he has always been informal and doesn't like the words of his parents and matchmakers, it is even more absurd for many brides who have never even seen one, but Wang You has read four books, and he looks like a gentleman She is as gentle as jade, if she speaks too absurdly, she might scare people away.

   "It's actually like this..." Wen Lan thought about it, and said, "Sister-in-law Wen Ning, I've seen her in the Temple of Mercy last time."

  Wang You's black eyes were as deep as a dark pool, and he looked at him very seriously, but he couldn't see the sparkle in them, and couldn't read his mood.

  Wen Lan could only continue: "We are three brothers and sisters, one is obsessed with the way of medicine, the other is addicted to the way of wine, and Ah Ning is crazy about poetry."

  Wen Lan's words sounded a bit guilty. Wen Ning did admire talents, but that was influenced by Mr. Tuye back then. She was only nine years old when Wen Tingchun caught her to study and read at home. The girl can recite backwards and forwards fluently, but it is too much to say that she loves poetry.

   But isn't that just an excuse...

Wen Lan continued: "She often paints and writes poems at home, and she has a lot of confusion in her heart. It's a pity that Wen Qi and I are ignorant, and my father is busy with business, and it's a little inconvenient for her to ask for a wife when she's a girl out of the cabinet... This is not the case. A few days ago, I happened to meet Shuzhi in the monastery, and I thought... If it is convenient for Shuzhi, can I find an opportunity to answer my sister's questions and give me some advice?"

  This excuse is grandiose and more than elegant, but Wang You is not stupid, the lonely men and widows meet each other in private, he must understand the implication of this.

  Wen Lan has dealt with Wang You several times, and knows that he is very organized and principled. He doesn't think that he will make up nonsense about marriage as Wen Ning said.

  So he came here this time, including saying these words, because he couldn't resist Wen Ning's offensive of tears, and he didn't intend that Wang You would agree.

   Whenever Wang You showed the slightest hesitation and embarrassment, he immediately gave him a step up, saying that this matter was very inappropriate, and he went home to discuss it with his sister, and it was considered a job for Wen Ning.

  After he finished speaking, Wang You's eyes like a dark pool were a little turbulent: "Your sister wants to ask me out?"

   "Cough..." Wen Lan was afraid of scaring Wang You, so she spoke so reservedly, but Wang You made it clear. He pretended to clear his throat, and said: "Forgive me, this matter is indeed a bit out of courtesy, it is very inappropriate, if you don't allow me to go home..."

   "Recently, there are a lot of people coming and going at home, which makes it inconvenient for my sister to come here." Before Wen Lan finished speaking, Wang You said, "Why don't you make an appointment in the restaurant's wing room?"

  Wen Lan was taken aback for a moment, never expecting that Wang You did not refuse, but directly agreed.

He opened his mouth and was silent for a while, but Wang You continued: "Yunting Building has many private rooms and elegant seats. Jiangnan dishes are exquisite in appearance and unique in taste. Many women in Beijing often patronize. If Ms. Wen goes to have a meal, It probably won't attract attention."

   Even the location has been chosen...

   No matter how slow Wen Lan reacted, he should have recovered, and he was overjoyed immediately. It seems that the concubine is affectionate, the man is interested, and there is drama!

   "Of course." Wen Lan responded immediately, "I don't know when I will be free recently?"

   "How about the eighteenth of March?"

"Success!" Wen Lan did not hide her joy, patted the seat, got up and said, "Then it will be March 18th, Yunting Tower, and I will reserve a box in my own name, so I will forgive you a lot. sister."

   "Master Wen is polite." Wang You cupped his hands.
