Ping'er sighed, hesitated for a long time, and suddenly hesitated: "Actually, even if you don't marry, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can't follow your wishes..."

Yuanyang was puzzled by what she heard, and just as he was trying to get her to explain more clearly, a woman carrying a basket came over to remind her that things had settled down inside, and asked if she wanted to bring the lychees in.

Yuanyang didn't bother to ask any more questions, and hurriedly led the women together with Heping'er to carry two baskets of lychees in and distribute them.

At this moment, another young and beautiful woman joined in, but it was Jia Rong's wife Xu. Because You was in confinement, she was specially sent to take her place.

The temperament of this grandma Xiaorong is very different from the previous Qin Keqing, but somewhat similar to Jia Yingchun. They are both dull and taciturn. They may not be able to answer every question, and they are timid with everyone.

Seeing that the little actors were all ready, Aunt Xue, Mrs. Wang, and Xue Pan finally rushed over.

It's just different from before. At this time, Xue Pan had already washed off his makeup and showed a gloomy expression on his face.

Seeing that his mouth was pouting so much that he could tie up a donkey, Jiao Shun, who was teasing Jia Huan, couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong with you? Could it be that you were scolded by your elders?"

"I……"

Xue Pan grinned widely, but before he could say anything, tears started to flow down. He quickly wiped them with his sleeves and said with a mournful face: "Mother didn't let me talk outside."

Okay~

Are the people at my desk all going to cry a lot today?

Jiao Shun cursed in his heart and felt a little regretful that Baoyu didn't come. He picked up the jug and poured a glass for Xue Pan. He said with a smile, "I can't just forget it. We brothers can get rid of all our worries after getting drunk."

Xue Pan clinked glasses with him, raised his head and drained the bottom, then threw the glass away and patted the table to let the wine bowl sit.

Jiao Shun, who was making trouble at this time, was a little bit too hard to get off. Since he said he would get rid of all his worries by getting drunk, he had no choice but to accompany him to the end.

The two of them ate the food and listened to the opera, and drank three and a half pots in one go.

Among them, Jiao Shun went to the main table and toasted two glasses of wine to the girls, but Xue Pan, the real host, ignored everything and just drank.

By the time Jiao Shun was about four to five points drunk, his eyes were dim and his speech was unclear.

Because his abdomen was bloated, Jiao asked Jia Huan to look after Xue Pan and left the table to go to the toilet.

When he saw Jiao Shun leaving the living room, Ping'er, who was being dragged by Li Wan to sit next to Wang Xifeng, immediately followed him out.

When Yuanyang saw this, he felt suddenly. He was afraid that Ping'er was going to tell Jiao Shun about his affairs, so he quickly apologized and left the table, quietly following Ping'er.

When they got outside, they saw Ping'er stopping Jiao Shun and leading him to a secluded corner.

Yuanyang followed up on tiptoe and hid behind the corner. As soon as he pricked up his ears, he heard Ping'er excitedly say: "Why did you agree to her for such a ridiculous thing?! What if..."

After that, it suddenly dropped several degrees.

Yuanyang thought she lowered her voice and subconsciously leaned forward, but was suddenly dragged out!

"Yeah~"

Yuanyang exclaimed, and when he regained his footing, he saw Jiao Shun and He'er standing side by side in front of him.

Yuanyang blushed, took half a step back, and whispered: "I, I, I..."

Before she could come up with her "I" explanation, Ping'er sighed and said to Jiao Shun: "Now that I've been listened to, there's nothing to hide - I can trust her."

Jiao Shun and Yuanyang were both stunned.

What you just said was clearly unclear, so why is there nothing to hide?

At this time, I heard Ping'er say: "I'm not looking for him because of your devotion to him, but..."

"Ping'er!"

Yuanyang stomped his feet shyly, hid his face and left, but was stopped by Ping'er with quick hands and eyes, and continued: "It's because the second grandma made a bet with him, as long as he can guarantee that the second grandma will return to his hometown within a year with the help of the maritime business."

For twice the amount of silver, just...just transfer me to him in an open and honest manner."

"What?!"

Yuanyang's eyes widened in shock, forgetting to be ashamed for a moment.

Who doesn’t know that Ping’er is the real aunt-to-be and a member of Master Lian’s house? Who would have thought that Wang Xifeng actually planned to ‘sell’ her to Jiao Shun?!

At this time, I heard Ping'er say to Jiao Shun: "That maritime business is extremely risky. If you really lose your money, are you afraid that you will lose everything to compensate her?! You can never sign this contract!"

Jiao Shun vaguely guessed Ping'er's thoughts, and immediately ignored the mandarin ducks, directly pulled Ping'er's catkins, and confessed affectionately: "Sister, don't you know my feelings? Not to mention tens of thousands of taels of silver.

, just tens of thousands taels of gold are worth nothing compared to my sister!"

As he said that, he took advantage of the situation and took Ping'er into his arms: "I have been by your side since I was a child, and I have always regarded you as my biological sister. If you live a happy life, I will never dare to think about anything else in my life.

, but... I will try my best to rescue you from this sea of ​​suffering like a widow!"

Yuanyang was completely dumbfounded.

Seeing Ping'er wrap his arms around Jiao Shun's waist with ease, didn't she know that the two of them had been having an affair?

In my heart, I first felt that the two of them were being rebellious, and Ping'er was a free-spirited person.

But when Jiao Shun said that Ping'er was living as a widow, he couldn't help but sympathize with Ping'er - Wang Xifeng was famous for being jealous. In the past, when the relationship between the couple was good, Ping'er was almost a decoration. Now the relationship between the two is tense.

, she would not allow Ping'er to get close to Jia Lian.

She had also heard Ping'er talk about the fact that Jia Lian was messing around with the boys and was confronted by Ping'er, which made her feel disgusted.

In contrast, Jiao Shun was willing to lose everything in exchange for Ping'er. Based on this true love alone, it doesn't seem surprising that the two would get together.

Can……

But what exactly is this...

Just as he was full of tangles, someone suddenly pushed him on his back. Yuanyang staggered and ran into Jiao Shun's arms.

But it turned out that while she was in a trance, Ping'er had already separated from Jiao Shun and quietly walked around behind her.

Ping'er covered her mouth and said with a smile: "I've made my matter clear, now it's your turn to talk to him - don't worry, I'll stay outside and won't eavesdrop on you."

When Yuanyang heard this, he suddenly thought of what Ping'er had never said clearly at the door of the flower hall: In fact, even if you don't marry, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can't follow your wishes.

For a moment, her heart felt as if a deer had hit her, her bones were numb and her muscles were numb. She wanted to break free from Jiao Shun's embrace, but she was too weak to use the strength.
