C6 (2/2)

Wen Fang and Mrs. Zhang dragged Wen Jiu and pushed him into the bridal sedan. Since things had already gotten to this point, they did not turn around to shoot.

However, Xie Heng didn't care about anyone's words. He looked at Wen Jiu with eyes that were like stars, and changed his previous lazy look to a serious one: ”My fifth brother has always been frail and sickly since young. Before I left, he repeatedly reminded me that I must tell this lady about it. Ask the lady if she is willing to marry him. ”

Sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone on the youth in front of his eyes. It was as though his entire body was enveloped in a layer of faint golden light.

Wen Jiu raised his eyes and looked at Xie Heng, and was about to say something.

Upon hearing that it was Fifth Young Master Xie Qi, Mrs. Wen's face instantly paled, and immediately rushed forward to protect Wen Jiu behind him: ”Jiu will not marry! I don't agree to this marriage! Jiu will not marry! ”

Xie Heng had clearly said that the sickly and weak Fifth Young Master had only taken Xie Qi as his wife to escort the bride.

When everyone heard this, they immediately felt that Xie Family was really fair and square.

If he did not say it, and brought her to Xie Family, he could only send her to Fifth Young Master's room. Even if the young lady knew that the groom had switched people, she could only mutter and swallow her pride.

However, this Xie Heng, when talking about this matter in front of others, did not lie in the slightest. It could be seen that his Xie Family and education were completely different from those of poor families.

On the other hand, as a grandmother and aunt, the Wen family had to send Wen Jiu over without knowing. They truly had a malicious heart.

”Ah, Fifth Young Master … I heard it's because my body isn't well and I've never been out of the house. ”

”Ah, he's already at the age of marriage and hasn't stepped out of the house yet. It's definitely not just his poor health!”

”This Old Wen family is selling granddaughters, right?”

Who didn't know that the Fifth Young Master in the Xie Family was a medicine jar and that he would die soon? If this fine young lady were to marry him, wouldn't that be the life of a widow?

”You little mouth! What nonsense! Jiu agreed to it himself! Selling granddaughter! Can you speak? If you don't know how to speak, then shut your mouth! ” Mrs. Zhang's face was burning with anger when she was pointed at and scolded like a shrew.

Even though the alley was noisy and grumbling, Xie Heng was not annoyed. His gaze fell on Wen Jiu and asked: ”Wen Jiu, what are you thinking?”

When he came here, Xie Qi had asked her many times, to definitely explain that it was the sickly Crake Fifth Young Master of Xie Family that wanted to get married. If Wen Jiu was unwilling, he had to not force her, otherwise, it would ruin her entire life.

Xie Heng originally did not hold much hope either.

When ordinary girls thought of being widowed, they didn't care about your character. It was normal for them not to want to. Even if they didn't use brooms to beat you up, it was still considered light.

But Wen Jiu was too calm, all the unrelated people were furious, but she still maintained a calm and composed appearance.

Xie Heng thought: Maybe it's my fifth brother's luck that he met a girl that was different from the masses.

”mother, it's alright. I will explain everything to Young Master Xie clearly.”

Wen Jiu soothed Mrs. Wen with a gentle voice. He took a step forward and said to Xie Heng: ”I have not reached my prime. According to the regulations of my Great Yan Dynasty, a girl that has not reached her prime cannot marry.”

”Not too old?”
