"You are just a hard worker. Everyone outside is happily partying and drinking, but you are the only one who stays at home and doesn't go out." Zhao Xueer entered Wan Lei's laboratory and had nothing nice to say.

"Oh, you can go if you want to go out for fun. You're old enough now. It's time to find someone to marry." Wan Lei didn't look back, still playing with his bottles and jars, but Wei'er, who was helping to take notes, heard this.

I couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"You don't need to worry about my affairs. You should worry about yourself. You are already in your twenties. If you don't even marry a wife, you can just wait to be single from now on." Zhao Xueer glared at Wan Lei and walked to the door with Bagua steps.

Went.

This little girl is not in a hurry to go out on a blind date, but to go to the streets to "find" chivalrous and righteous things to do. However, since she appeared in Beiping City, almost all the second-rates have changed their appearance, and some die-hards have been beaten by her.

After a few meals, she has obediently changed from evil to good. Now when she goes out on the street, a group of children will call her "young heroine", which greatly satisfies her little vanity.

Although there are no "gangsters" to catch, she still likes to run out, because she is now a female instructor of the "Young Pioneers" in Peiping. Whenever she has time, she goes to the training center to teach some rough kids boxing and kicking skills. The students are male and female, and they are all female.

Most of them have children, and it seems that she intends to cultivate more big-footed female devils like herself. For this reason, Wan Lei often receives reports from some parents.

Of course, Wan Lei would not reprimand Zhao Xueer just because someone complained. Wan Lei did not support her actions on the surface, but secretly encouraged her, hoping that she would teach more "little devils", so that the Peking Army would have successors.

.

Not long after Zhao Xueer left home, a government servant hurried into Wan's house. As soon as he saw Wan Lei, he whispered a few words in his ear. Wan Lei just frowned and said: "Let the scouts continue to follow.

If there is any abnormality, please report it.”

In the spirit of having no intention of harming others and being on guard against others, Wan Lei asked the Peking Army Headquarters to select a thousand elite soldiers and establish a sentry camp, named the Reconnaissance Battalion, responsible for early warning on the border of Shuntian Prefecture.

If an enemy enters, you can get the news as soon as possible so that you can prepare for battle.

Wan Lei is so nervous because another caravan of thousands of people has entered the Shuntian Prefecture territory without a flag, and it is not a smuggler from Shandong. As for its origin, it is still unknown. However,

, Wan Lei would not take it lightly. He immediately dropped what he was doing and was about to go to the prefect's Yamen to discuss the matter with Tie Xuan, but he saw Tie Xuan came over first and brought a bunch of maids and old ladies with him. He didn't know what he was going to do.

Once out.

"My dear nephew, what a happy event, what a great happy event." As soon as they met, Tie Xuan waved a letter.

"What happy event can make you so happy?" Wan Lei asked curiously.

"The capital sent someone here to propose marriage."

"Proposing marriage? Proposing marriage to whom? Isn't it a concubine brought to you, sir?" Wan Lei also laughed, and he did not expect that the court would actually do something like this. Isn't this a "marriage" in disguise?

Could it be that the imperial court also wanted to imitate King Gou Jian of Yue and send a Xi Tzu to harm the Peiping army?

"My dear nephew, stop joking. I don't have the heart but the courage. This time I propose to you, my dear nephew, the daughter of the Meiyin family, the prince-in-law."

"Ah!" Wei'er behind Wan Lei cried out in a low voice, his eyes suddenly became watery, and he looked at Master Wan motionlessly. His lips were still biting tightly, as if he was about to cry, and his hands were still tight

He pinched the corners of his clothes, feeling at a loss for a moment.

"Propose marriage to me? Or is it the daughter of the consort's family? Isn't that the emperor's niece? I, I can't afford it." Wan Lei said this, but his heart was "cheered" and said to himself: "Arranged marriage,

I won’t do it.”

As soon as Wan Lei said these words, Wei'er's heart that was hanging in her throat was relieved again.

"She is a concubine, not a direct descendant, but she can still be regarded as a relative of the emperor. From this, we can see that the court intends to restore the old relationship with our Shuntian Mansion. My nephew should quickly let his family prepare the courtyard, because the marriage proposal team will arrive soon." Tie Xuan.

Before Wan Lei could agree, he had already ordered the maids and ladies to start working.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't worry, let's explain the matter clearly first." Wan Lei hurriedly called out to this group of over-enthusiastic people to prevent them from messing up his laboratory, and then said: "Brother Tie, this is a joke.

It’s not easy to open, I’m just a small commoner, and the biggest official I’ve ever been was Yi Cheng. By the way, Yi Cheng is not even an official, so I can’t really reach such a high level.”

"Oh, my nephew, don't be humble. Who doesn't know that your nephew is the chieftain of Shuntian Mansion? Although he is unknown, he is real. Then the Miss Mei family is not a direct descendant, and her father died in the war.

, her status has plummeted, and it is her blessing to be able to marry you, my nephew. Does your nephew look down on her because she is a concubine?" Tie Xuan also showed off his matchmaking style.

"No, no, it's just that I can't protect myself now. How can I dare to marry a wife? Wouldn't that be harmful to others?" Wan Lei kept evading, mainly because it was a political marriage between a romantic partner, not to mention the emotional basis.

I haven't even seen the other person's face. If the other person turns out to be an ugly person, all my wisdom will be ruined.

"When a man is married, a girl is married. There is no need to consider other things for your nephew. If you marry a girl from the Mei family, you will be the son-in-law of the eldest princess. The court must take into account the face of the consort's family, and it will not be detrimental to the Shuntian Mansion. This

It is a good thing that benefits the people and ourselves." Tie Xuan also advised.

"This, this." Wan Lei was really speechless, because now is the evil old society. The ancients paid attention to the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words when getting married. As for love, what is it? How much does it cost per pound? Just when he was at his wits' end, he glanced at

When he saw Wei'er standing behind him, he said, "It's certainly good to be the son-in-law of the Prince Consort's family, but I've already made an engagement and I can't break it."

"What? My nephew is engaged? Why haven't I heard you mention it? Whose girl is it? Have you signed a letter of engagement?" Tie Xuan asked frantically.

"This, I can't explain clearly for a while. Although I haven't issued a letter of appointment, I already have..." Wan Lei's "old face" turned red and he didn't dare to say any more. After all, this was a joke in person, and it would be exposed if someone exposed it.

It's not good, it's better to be more subtle. But Wei'er didn't know that Wan Lei was lying. She thought Wan Lei had another sweetheart secretly, so her jealousy was raised in her throat again, and her breathing became even more rapid.

"As long as there is no letter of engagement, this will be easy to handle. My nephew is not married now, so there is no need to divorce her and marry another. As for that girl, there is nothing wrong with taking her as a concubine." Tie Xuan took care of her.

"Well, this is not good." Wan Lei frowned and said, "Master Tie, can you step aside for a moment? I have some personal matters to take care of."

"Nephew, there is no need to hesitate any longer. A man has no problem marrying a wife and taking concubines." Tie Xuan did not forget to throw out another sentence before exiting Wanzhai.

Tie Xuan and his party left, leaving only Wan Lei and Wei'er in the courtyard, staring at each other with big eyes. Wan Lei scratched his head, gritted his teeth, and said to Wei'er, "Wei'er, what do you think about this?"

"The young master has to make the decision on such important matters as marriage. Wei'er has long been looking forward to the young master marrying the young mistress." Wei'er's voice was low, his head was lowered, and his eyes were a little flushed. For such a pitiful little person, no one can

I can't bear to see it.

"If you die, die!" Wan Lei gritted his teeth, stepped forward suddenly, and held Wei'er in his arms.

"Master, what are you doing? Let go." Wei'er panicked, struggling to break away. But Wan Lei's strength was so great that she couldn't move even if she tried all her strength. And right there

At this time, the window of the study room also opened wide, and several little heads squeezed out, staring at this astonishing scene in amazement.

When Wei'er saw someone watching, her face turned red with embarrassment, and she hurriedly buried her head in Wan Lei's arms, not daring to move.

"Marry me, okay?" Wan Lei whispered in Wei'er's ear.
