In the end, the Ban Family decided to meet with Cheng Anbo. [
The family of four plus Rong Xia sat in silence in the room. Looking at the gifts piled up in the room, the atmosphere was one of silence. However, Ban Huai felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward. It was so awkward that he couldn't help but glance back and forth between Rong Xia and his sister.
It turned out that he had thought that Uncle Rong was interested in his sister. It wasn't that he thought too much, but that he thought too little.
"Uncle, Aunt," Rong Xia stood up and respectfully bowed to Ban Huai and the Yin Clan, "This junior has taken the liberty to come and disturb you. Please forgive this junior."
Ban Huai held his teacup and thought silently. When they met a few days ago, he had called him Marquis. How long had it been, and now he had become Uncle? In the past, he had thought that Rong Xia was good in every way. Now that he looked at him again, he felt that this was not the case.
His eyebrows were too stylish. He had heard that this kind of man had a hard heart. With a pair of peach blossom eyes, there was an 80% to 90% chance that he would attract other women. His lips were a bit thin, and he looked very fickle. Wasn't there a saying that most righteous people were dog butchers, and the most heartless people were scholars? This Rong Xia had studied so much. What if he was a heartless man?
No, no, he shook his head in his heart. He turned to look at his wife and the Yin Clan.
The Yin Clan looked up and said with a smile, "I heard that Cheng Anbo is interested in marrying this good-for-nothing daughter of mine. This matter …" The Yin Clan looked at his daughter and saw that there was not much shyness on her face. He said, "It's just that this matter is too sudden. We are very surprised."
"Uncle, Aunt, this junior sincerely wishes to marry Junzhu. If I can marry the Ban Family, this junior will wholeheartedly and never leave. Junzhu and I will be like Uncle and Aunt. " Rong Xia bowed to Ban Huai and the Yin Clan again. "In the future, if I dare to violate this oath, let this junior's reputation be ruined, and I will live a miserable and lonely life."
This kind of oath was simply too insidious for a famous noble young master. The Ban Family probably wouldn't want to hear anything about being struck by lightning, because this phrase had been used too many times in novels.
Ban Heng coughed and looked at Ban Han from the corner of his eyes. What was his sister thinking?
Ban Han secretly stuffed a piece of dessert into his mouth, took a sip of tea, and then smiled innocently at Ban Heng.
What does this mean? Are you willing or not? What's more, he's asking for your hand in marriage. Can't you at least be a little shy?
"My child doesn't like poetry. I'm afraid he doesn't have much in common with you." The Yin Clan felt that they were like the evil mother-in-law in the novels who made things difficult for her son-in-law.
"Whatever the Princess likes, this junior will accompany her. Poetry is just a hobby that I have in my spare time. It's not as important as the Princess."
Ban Huai's eyelids twitched. This young man has a bright future. In the past, he also relied on this kind of shameless spirit to make his wife happy.
"This child is extravagant. He loves flowers the most. Uncle …" The Yin Clan wanted to say that Uncle was a frugal person, but when they saw that Rong Xia's clothes were plain-colored, and the fabric was specially chosen because the Yin Clan was in mourning, but the embroidery on it was not simple. The Yin Clan was certain that a small flower embroidered on it was worth more than all the fabric on the body. "Uncle is a person who likes simple and elegant clothes. This doesn't suit him."
"The Princess is a national beauty. Heavy makeup is always appropriate. Whatever she likes to wear, this junior will like it. Whatever she likes to eat, the family will eat. Since I am the only one in the family, everything can be done according to the Princess's preferences. Although this junior's ancestors were not from a prominent family, they still left behind some inheritance for this junior. This junior will definitely not let the princess have the slightest bit of trouble in terms of money. "
The Rong Clan had been a prominent family for hundreds of years. Saying that it was "not a prominent family" and "left behind some inheritance" was just a modest way of saying. In terms of the number of important people that came from their ancestors and the amount of gold, silver, and treasures they had, the Ban Family was not as good as the Rong Clan.
The Yin Clan suddenly felt that with their daughter's temperament, marrying a young man who had no elders in the family and was from a prominent family was really the best choice. However, a man's words could never be completely trusted. The Yin Clan thought of Shen Yu in the past. When he proposed to Rong Xia, his words were like flowers. What the result was, everyone in the capital knew.
"Uncle's words are very thoughtful," the Yin Clan smiled, "For this kind of important matter, although we as elders are very worried, the feelings of our children are more important."
The Yin Clan was a very open-minded person. Perhaps it was because her maternal family always forced her to do things that she did not like, so she was more open-minded about her children. If her daughter could not find a good husband, she would rather not let her marry than let her suffer.
However, this kind of thinking was too unconventional. The Yin Clan had never shown this kind of attitude to outsiders. It was only when they educated their children that they inevitably brought it out.
"Aunt's words are reasonable," Rong Xia bowed to the Yin Clan, then tilted his head to look at Ban Han, who was drinking tea with his head lowered.
Ban Huai stood up, patted his sleeves, and said calmly, "Uncle, our family is still in mourning. It's better not to go overboard with some words." After saying this, he said to the Yin Clan and Ban Huai, "The sun is just right in the courtyard. Let's go out and bask in the sun."
Ban Huai stood up reluctantly and glanced at Rong Xia. I didn't expect you to be this kind of person!
The door to the room was open. The three members of the Ban Family stood in the courtyard and stared at the room like tigers watching their prey. Although they could not hear what the two were saying, if Rong Xia dared to do anything out of line, the three of them would definitely rush in.
Rong Xia turned to look outside the courtyard and bowed to Ban Han, "Princess, your family treats you very well." Rong Xia was certain that in the entire capital, other than the Ban Family, there was no other family that cared for their daughter so much.
Ban Han held the teacup and tilted his head to look at Rong Xia. After a while, he put down the teacup and cupped his face, "Uncle Rong, do you really plan to marry me?"
Normally, when a girl mentioned this kind of thing, her cheeks would be red and she would speak incoherently. However, Ban Han was very calm and even took the opportunity to look at Rong Xia a few more times. Beautiful face, beautiful hands, slender waist, long legs, good temperament. Such a good man actually took a fancy to her. Could it be that her appearance was particularly attractive to scholars?
"Yes, this one wants to marry Princess." Rong Xia bowed and looked at Ban Han, who was sitting on the chair, at the same level, "If Princess is willing to marry me, you can still come to live in your parents' home. However, you must also bring this one along."
When Ban Han heard this, his face finally showed some emotion, "Don't you scholars have many requirements for women? You even said that a woman who often returns to her parents' home is not virtuous?"
"Princess, in front of you, this one is not a scholar. This one is just an ordinary man who admires you and wants you to marry me." Rong Xia's face showed some loneliness, "Moreover, this one has no father, mother, or brothers. In this empty Count fu, there is no one else but me. If it wasn't for the restriction of my identity, this one would even be willing to live in the Duke fu with Princess. "
Ban Han remembered that when Rong Xia was young, he had lost his parents. Later, even his brother was gone. His pregnant eldest sister-in-law saw that her husband was gone, so she simply aborted the child and went back to her parents' home to remarry. This life experience was very pitiful.
"So … you want to marry me because my home is more lively?" Ban Han suddenly felt that if Rong Xia really thought this way, marrying him seemed like a good choice.
"No, this is probably 'love me, love my dog'," Rong Xia smiled and looked at Ban Han, "Princess, are you willing to let this one live in your home?"
Ban Han rubbed his chin and silently looked at Rong Xia.
Rong Xia smiled and allowed her to look. His beautiful eyes were like a gentle stream, making people feel comfortable and not aggressive.
"Are you saying that because you like me, you like my family?" Ban Han understood the phrase "love me, love my dog". She looked at Rong Xia suspiciously. Why didn't she feel that Rong Xia liked her that much? Did she miss something?
"Yes." Rong Xia smiled.
"So … what do you like about me?" Ban Han inexplicably felt that she was a bit like a heartless scholar in a novel, and Rong Xia was one of those infatuated girls who had given their true feelings to the wrong person.
She touched her face. No, she couldn't have two different attitudes just because Rong Xia was better looking than Yan Zhen. She couldn't be so superficial!
"Princess, you are very beautiful. The peach blossoms in February and March, the stars in the sky, and the snow in December are all not as beautiful as you." Rong Xia pointed at her eyes, "Your eyes are like the most beautiful starry sky. After I fell in love with you, I felt that there was no gender difference between men and women in the world. We are all human beings."
Ban Han … Ban Han felt that her cheeks were slightly hot.
Because Rong Xia's words were too sincere and honest. She hoped that a man would praise her like this!
What did he mean by finding her cute, quick-witted, and kinder than expected? It was all a bunch of nonsense. Couldn't he honestly and honestly praise her beauty? Was it that shameful for a man to say that he had fallen head over heels for her beauty?!
She felt that she appreciated Uncle Rong even more because he was honest and had good taste. He even knew how to appreciate her beauty.
This was the best compliment in the world!
When he looked at her, he felt that there was no difference between women and other men in the world. This meant that in his eyes, she was the most beautiful woman, and everyone else was trash?!
She really liked it when he praised her like this!
Ban Han was in a good mood. She stood up and patted Rong Xia's shoulder, "Young woman, you have good taste. I think very highly of you."
Rong Xia was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then are you willing to marry me?"
Ban Jin picked at her fingers and started to calculate the consequences if she married Rong Xia.
After they got married, if Rong Xia was considerate and gentle to her, she probably wouldn't lose her life after the Ban Family fell from power. Moreover, her family would also be protected. She would also get the most handsome man in the world, the world's number one gentleman, and the world's number one scholar. She wouldn't lose anything in this life.
After they got married, if Rong Xia didn't treat her well in the future, she would kick Rong Xia out and move back home. After the Ban Family fell from power, her family's ending would probably be similar to what happened in her dream. However, at least she would successfully sleep with the most handsome man in the world. This was the best quality that couldn't be raised in the capital. This wouldn't be a loss, and she would even be able to anger those women who didn't like her.
However, in this way, Rong Xia would seem to be at a disadvantage.
Ban Han's upright moral values made her hesitate. Should she harm such a good man?
She felt that if she nodded and agreed, she would feel guilty.
