Mu Wanqing's exclamation also awakened Qin Hongmian, who was in a daze. Only then did she realize that she had taken the initiative to throw herself into the arms of a strange man. Her face flushed red for a moment. Fortunately, there was a black veil in front of her, otherwise, it would be too embarrassing to be seen by others.
Even so, she reacted fiercely and jumped out of his arms like a frightened rabbit. However, in her embarrassment and panic, she tripped and fell to the ground involuntarily.
At this moment, a pair of strong arms caught her waist, and another hand held her back to help her up: "Be careful, Madam."
Song Qingshu helped Qin Hongmian up, then said to Mu Wanqing unhurriedly: "Sister Wan, I came to propose marriage. Madam was worried that I couldn't protect you, so she wanted to test my martial arts. In the end, she accidentally fell, so I reached out to help you."
Qin Hongmian admired his quick wit. Although she knew that he was talking nonsense with a serious face, she opened her mouth but did not refute in the end.
Seeing that her mother had tacitly agreed to his words, Mu Wanqing did not suspect anything. She ran to her side and held her arm, then glared at her lover: "Your martial arts are so high, but you didn't know how to control your strength."
"Don't worry, he didn't hurt me," Qin Hongmian finally said, "You said his martial arts are very high … Is he very famous in Jianghu?" This was also the question she had been wondering from the beginning.
"He is very famous in Jianghu." Speaking of her lover, Mu Wanqing's entire face was brimming with the light of happiness, and she talked non-stop to her mother about her lover's various deeds.
Qin Hongmian revealed a surprised expression, and could not help but size up the man not far away: "So it's him." Although she had always lived a secluded life, she would walk in Jianghu from time to time, and in the past few years, Song Qingshu was the most famous figure in Jianghu, so she had naturally heard of him. However, other than being interested in Duan Zhengchun and a few others, she did not care about others at all, so when she heard the name Song Qingshu just now, she did not react.
"Right, Mother, Brother Song's identity is sensitive. If the Xixia people find out, there will be a lot of trouble, so I hope Mother will not reveal his true identity to others." Mu Wanqing suddenly thought of something and hurriedly reminded her.
"Girls are really extroverted. Do I look like someone who doesn't know what's important?" Qin Hongmian glared at her in annoyance. Then, when she looked at Song Qingshu, her gaze softened a bit. "You're willing to take such a risk for Wan'er. You can be considered to be affectionate and loyal. That's rare."
Mu Wanqing looked excited. "Mother, does that mean you agree to our marriage?"
"I …" Before Qin Hongmian could finish speaking, Song QingShu beat her to it and said,
"Madam has already agreed, right, Madam?" Song Qingshu glanced at Qin Hongmian with a smile that was not a smile.
Qin Hongmian's face blushed. As the saying goes, one's hands are tied. Since she had learned his Dragon-Capturing Technique, she was too embarrassed to refuse. Moreover, such an embarrassing scene had just occurred. Even now, her entire body was still limp and she had yet to regain her senses.
"Really?" Mu Wanqing's face was filled with surprise. These past few days, she had been worrying about the gains and losses of the fu. Suddenly, she heard the news from the servants that a young man had come to propose marriage to Madam. She ran over with incomparable joy.
But very soon, she began to worry. In her impression, her mother had always been quite strict. She belonged to the serious type that was hard to talk to. Moreover, she was very clear about her mother's attitude towards men. This time, Big Brother Song probably wouldn't be able to get away with it. In the end, she didn't think that her lover would be able to settle her mother so easily.
Qin Hongmian coughed lightly. After all, this was her daughter. She couldn't help but worry for her daughter. "However, I heard that Prince Song already has a wife. This time, he came to propose marriage to Wan'er. What's the meaning of this? Is he going to make her your concubine? " Although she wasn't very familiar with the outside world's information and didn't know about Song Qingshu's other female confidantes, the matter of him and Emei Sect's Zhou Zhiruo had spread like wildfire in Jianghu.
Song Qingshu sternly said, "Although I already have a wife, the heaven and earth can bear witness to my love for Little Sister Wan. Moreover, in my family, there is absolutely no division between wives and concubines. Everyone has equal status."
"No division between wives and concubines? Ridiculous! " Although Qin Hongmian said this, her expression was much more relaxed. She couldn't help but think of herself in the past. Back then, she had fallen into the river of love and loved Duan Zhengchun to death. She had even expressed her willingness to agree to be his concubine. Unfortunately, Duan Zhengchun still didn't dare to bring her back to the Prince's Mansion and didn't dare to give her any status.
On the contrary, this man before her was still able to calmly express his firm desire to marry Wan'er under her interrogation. He was much more manly than Duan Zhengchun in the past.
"In this life, I won't let Little Sister Wan down. No matter good or bad, rich or poor, in sickness or in health, I will love her and cherish her. Only when I die can we be separated. I hope that Madam can fulfill my wish." Now that things had come to this, Song Qingshu could only use his ultimate move. He took out the marriage vows that had been widely spread in his previous life. Although they were somewhat common in his previous life, they had never been heard of in this world. The effect was excellent.
"Big Brother Song …" As expected, Mu Wanqing's eyes turned red in an instant. Qin Hongmian, who was beside her, was visibly moved. She, who had been hurt by love, could increasingly feel the true feelings contained in these vows. As the saying went, it was easy to obtain a priceless treasure, but difficult to find a lover.
"Fine, I'll leave Wan'er to you to take care of in the future." Qin Hongmian sighed faintly. Her voice was filled with loneliness, because she thought of her own experience in the past. If Duan Zhengchun had been like him back then, I wouldn't have been in pain for half my life.
"Thank you, Mother …" Mu Wanqing was so excited that she almost jumped up. She directly leaned over and kissed her on the cheek. Only then did she realize that she was still wearing a veil. She subconsciously pulled it off. "Aiya, we're going to be a family in the future. At least let Song Qingshu see what mother-in-law looks like."
"Ah …" How could Qin Hongmian have expected that her daughter would suddenly do something like this? She did not even have time to react before her veil was pulled off.
Song Qingshu, who was beside her, felt his eyes light up. She had a sharp face, slender eyebrows, and an extremely beautiful appearance. It was no wonder that Mu Wanqing's appearance was one of the best among Duan Zhengchun's many daughters. Duan Zhengchun was handsome and confident, while Qin Hongmian had such a cold beauty. Mu Wanqing, who inherited both of their good points, would naturally surpass her.
"This future mother-in-law of mine looks really young." Song Qingshu secretly clicked his tongue. He did not know if it was because there was no pollution in this world or if it was because of the existence of internal energy, but he felt that taking care of women was more useful than any cosmetics or skincare products in the future.
However, the thing that left the deepest impression on Song Qingshu was her gaze. It carried 30% stubbornness and 30% viciousness, causing her peerlessly beautiful face to reveal a cold and … fierce expression that kept strangers away.
"What are you doing!" Qin Hongmian had a fiery temper to begin with. This time, she was truly enraged. One must know that the reason why Mu Wanqing would make such a strange oath was precisely because she herself was the same. Her appearance could only be seen by her future husband. If it was seen by other men, she would either kill him, or … marry him.
Mu Wanqing stuck out her tongue: "Mother, if the two of you meet by chance in Jianghu in the future and Song Qingshu doesn't recognize you, wouldn't that be a joke to others? We're all family, so what's wrong with looking?"
Qin Hongmian fiercely glared at her, but she also knew that what she said was not without reason. Moreover, now that things had come to this, she had no way of putting her veil back on.
Suddenly thinking of something, Qin Hongmian turned to Song Qingshu and asked: "How old are you this year?"
Song QingShu answered, "I've just turned thirty."
Qin Hongmian revealed a strange expression, but she did not say anything. Instead, Mu Wanqing, who was at the side, blurted out in surprise: "Eh, Big Brother Song, you're about the same age as my mother. She's only older than you …"
"Shut up!" Qin Hongmian hurriedly interrupted her daughter. How could she casually tell such a private matter to another man? When she thought of how the other party was only a few years younger than her, but had to call her mother-in-law, why did this kind of feeling feel a little strange?
At this moment, Song Qingshu's expression was even more strange. In this world, women get married at the age of ten or so, and there are plenty of women who give birth at the age of sixteen or seventeen. Currently, Mu Wanqing looks like she's only seventeen or eighteen years old, so Qin Hongmian is at most four or five years older than me. Speaking of which, are the two of us the same age?
According to the conversion standards of the future generations, when I became an adult, Mu Wanqing was still in kindergarten. I didn't expect that I would also enjoy the feeling of a strong Brother Dong, and this kind of feeling is really … a little refreshing ~
Song Qingshu took out the gifts from earlier: "Madam, you should be able to accept these gifts now, right?"
"Wow, so beautiful!" When Mu Wanqing saw the Emerald Mandarin Duck in her hands, she immediately fell in love with it.
Qin Hongmian, who was at the side, rolled her eyes helplessly. This silly girl doesn't even know that I've sold you by accepting these gifts. However, now that things had come to this, she already had no reason to refuse.
Next, she invited Song Qingshu to sit down again, and asked him how the two of them met and fell in love. When she heard that the two of them first met on Mount Hua, she secretly nodded: No wonder, at that time, Wan 'er just happened to be hurt by love. Fortunately, she met him, otherwise she wouldn't have to suffer for the rest of her life like me.
Thinking that her lifetime's happiness was ruined by Duan Zhengchun, and her daughter's lifetime's happiness was almost ruined by his son, Qin Hongmian felt an indescribable anger in her heart. However, when she saw her daughter and Song Qingshu's current appearance, her anger gradually subsided a little.
After chatting for a while, Song Qingshu suddenly asked: "Oh right, what happened to King Tiandu recently? Why didn't I see him today?"
Qin Hongmian frowned, and lightly replied: "I've been living in seclusion in the backyard, so I don't know much about his affairs."
Song Qingshu was startled, thinking that in any case, the two of you are husband and wife now. However, her words revealed too much information. It seems that the two of them are only husband and wife on the surface? At the very least, they haven't lived together for a long time, otherwise she wouldn't speak in such a tone.
On the other hand, Mu Wanqing, who was at the side, opened her mouth: "Recently, he seems to have something troubling him. Two days ago, he caught a spy from the Song Dynasty, and specially escorted him over to the Emperor. However, when he came back, his expression seemed to be even more unsightly. These two days, he has been running around everywhere. As for what he's busy with, I don't know." Because she knew that her biological father was someone else, and because she grew up in Jianghu, and was only brought back by Mu Yuqi in the past two years, she didn't have much affection for him. It was very difficult for her to call him father, so she could only use him as a substitute.
