Marry

30

Wen Ning had a quiet time in the Wen family. No one dared to provoke her these days. Cao had warned her two children to leave the best for sister Wen Ning.

Wen Ning just watched their family perform quietly without responding much.

In the past, it was common for Cao's children to snatch things and show off good things. Now that they were acting well-behaved, she found it interesting.

But Qi Weiming hadn't replied yet, which made her a little concerned.

"Girl, girl!"

Wen Ning was in a daze when she heard Mu Jin's hurried voice, "Miss, there's news from outside."

She looked at her in confusion, "What news makes you so flustered?"

"That's...that's it..." Mu Jin's eyes were red, "Prince Qi Weiming went to the Zhou family to propose marriage."

Wen Ning was slightly startled and slowly stood up.

"Zhou Mingyan?"

"That's right." Mu Jin had followed Wen Ning since she was a child, so she naturally knew how good the relationship between Wen Ning and Qi Shizi was. Now, hearing this news, she almost cried, "Miss, the letter really was delivered."

"Yeah." Wen Ning's fingers trembled slightly, "I, I know."

She was confused. Although she had thought about such an outcome before, after all, they had been friends for so many years, and it would be a lie to say that she was not sad.

Qi Weiming still couldn't accept the fact that she was marrying him.

Well, Zhou Mingyan is a good match for him, and he doesn't need to suffer so much or take so many detours. His future is bright, and this is a path that suits him better.

Wen Ning was thinking in her heart, but her chest seemed to be clenched by something and she couldn't breathe.

The room was silent, but Wen Ning heard some chaotic noises coming from outside, as if many large wooden boxes were placed in the courtyard.

A servant came running from outside, a look of surprise on his face, and shouted loudly.

"Girl! The prince is here to propose marriage! So many... so many gifts!"

Wen Ning's heart was shocked. He stood up and went out immediately.

The servant's voice was as loud as gongs and drums, so exaggerated that all the servants and maids in the yard popped their heads out. Wen Ning lifted her skirt and walked quickly out of the room. Her mind was in a mess. She suppressed the chaotic emotions that had just arisen because of Qi Weiming, and just walked towards the yard.

But when Wen Ning arrived at the courtyard, she found that what Xiao Yunci did was even more exaggerated than the servant's shouting.

——The whole courtyard is filled with betrothal gifts, and people are still pushing wooden boxes in. Judging from their expressions and the degree of effort they are putting in, the things in these boxes are not light, but incredibly heavy.

The boxes are all made of mahogany, with intricate carvings and exquisite workmanship. Just one of these boxes can be sold for a lot of money.

Wen Yuanzheng and Cao had come out to greet them a long time ago. Cao was busy directing the people to put the things into the house. Her voice was filled with sharp excitement, "Put it here! Hey, be gentle, don't break the corners. This box is very valuable. Hey, hey, hey, that boy, where are you going? Come back here quickly, don't touch the betrothal gift and ruin it!"
