Blessed Daughter

"You don't need to thank me, I didn't do anything." Wei Jin also replied.

"Why didn't the second brother do anything? The second brother has done a lot of things. Not only was the coal mine taken down with the help of the second brother, but the second brother also silently supported me to do many things that other women could not do. Please find me, and the second brother tried his best to help me stop it." Wei Ruo counted the things Wei Jinyi did for himself.

Wei Jin also looked at Wei Ruo's smiling face and didn't answer.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Ruo stared at Wei Jin and said, "There are not many people in this world who can pamper me so much. My nanny is one, and Meimei is one. Now there is one more you."

"Well, we are all your family." Wei Jin also said.

Hearing this, the corners of Wei Ruo's mouth kept rising.

Family, what a beautiful word.

Although the nanny, Meimei, and the second brother are not related to her by blood, they all gave her warmth beyond the family.

She is very satisfied.

After that, Wei Ruo, accompanied by Wei Jinyi, bought a manor in Hejian Mansion, which was near the cotton field she bought.

Because it is located in the suburbs, the price of the manor is not expensive, at least it is much cheaper than the shops in the capital.

One thousand six hundred taels of silver bought the Zhuangzi covering an area of ​​more than 20 mu, including the large bamboo forest behind the manor, all of which belonged to Wei Ruo.

And there are two huge warehouses in this manor that Wei Ruo likes very much. Wei Ruo can use them to store the cotton collected in the future.

Wei Ruo can also store some materials transported from Jiangnan here, and it will be convenient to transport them to the capital from here when needed.

Wei Ruo also wants to use the large bamboo forest behind Zhuangzi. Bamboo has many uses. Not only can it produce bamboo shoots all year round, but the moso bamboo itself can also be used to make various bamboo products.

In addition, as long as the bamboo forest is properly protected, it can also be used to grow many useful herbs, such as ginseng in the forest, and aescin that likes to grow in the shade.

On the night of buying Zhuangzi, Wei Ruo didn't rush back to Tongshan Temple, and Wei Jin also stayed with her.

There are people from them on the mountain, as long as you keep Eunuch Gao from it, it won't be a problem if they don't come back for a night or two.

Wei Ruo and Xiumei set up an iron grill for barbecue in Zhuangzi's big courtyard.

Xiaobei helped light the fire and add charcoal.

Wei Jin also asked people to find a lot of fresh ingredients. After processing, they were skewered with freshly split bamboo sticks.

Such a scene is familiar, but the difference is that the courtyard they are in now is several times larger than that of the Wei family, and the surrounding environment is also quieter and quieter.

Not long after, the smell of meat wafted in the courtyard, making people's appetite greatly increased.

Wei Ruo sprinkled each skewer with her secret barbecue seasoning.

Xiaomei ate the kebab happily, and said with a satisfied face: "Miss, the food you cook is too delicious. I was a little uncomfortable when I ate your food for the first time. Now I eat your food. These, if you go to eat elsewhere, you will feel extremely bland.”

Xiumei said: "How do you say that my lady's dishes are all based on seasonings, don't we also cook light food?"

Xiaobei hurriedly explained: "It's my subordinate who said the wrong thing. It's because Miss and Meimei make delicious food! It's because I used to be ignorant, short-sighted, and short-sighted. I mistakenly took pearls for fish eyes, and boars couldn't eat fine meat." bran!"

Xiumei was amused by Xiao Bei's series of apologies: "I see that you really went all out to eat a few bites from my lady, and you even called yourself a boar!"

"Compared to Miss and Meimei, I am indeed a wild boar, very rough!" Xiaobei smiled smirkingly.

"Don't talk about Meimei, Meimei is called by my lady." Xiumei corrected.

Obviously they used to call her "Miss Xiumei", but recently, for some reason, they called her "Meimei" just like her young lady, it sounds weird!

"I'm sorry, Miss Xiumei." Seeing Xiumei's serious face, Xiao Bei quickly changed his words.

"It's not that I won't let you call, it's just that we're not that familiar." Xiumei added.

"I know, Miss Xiumei, I didn't think carefully." Xiaobei scratched her head in embarrassment, with a shy expression like a little girl.

The four of them chatted while eating, and when the chat got excited, Wei Ruo talked about what he had mentioned to Wei Jinyi a few days ago.

"I'm going to talk to Meme about a marriage."

As soon as the words finished, Xiumei and Xiaobei choked at the same time.

"What's the matter with you?" Wei Ruo asked, why did the two of them choke together.

"Little... Miss, what are you talking about? What do you mean kiss... Didn't you agree that I will never marry? You can't drag me into trouble just because you are forced to marry someone!" Xiumei After slowing down, he asked in surprise.

Xiaobei stared at Wei Ruo and Xiumei with wide eyes, hesitant to speak.

"Don't worry, if you want to marry someone, I won't force you to marry. I'm just talking about it. If you like it, it's fine. If you don't like you, it's okay. Don't think about it when the time comes." Marry, but because I missed it, then I have committed a serious crime." Wei Ruo said.

"No! If I don't say kiss, I will stay with Miss for the rest of my life." Xiumei refused, and then added, "Besides, Miss, you haven't really married yet! You haven't married me yet." How can I get married?"

Said Xiumei glanced at Wei Jinyi: "You and the prince are not considered married. In the future, the prince will marry another, and you will marry another!"

As soon as Xiumei said this, Xiaobei looked at Wei Jinyi nervously.

The moonlight and the firelight from the lantern hanging beside him hit his face, reflecting his cold face as always, only those eyes slightly revealed some of his hidden emotions.

Xiumei paused, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit weird, especially Xiaobei, why did he feel weird?

Did she say the wrong thing? no?

Originally, the prince and their young lady were not really married. The young lady and the prince made it very clear.

Wei Ruo brought the skewered meat to Xiumei: "Meimei, eat meat."

Xiumei nodded with a dazed expression, then took the meat skewers and began to chew.

Wei Ruo continued: "Don't worry, if you don't want to get married, I will never let you get married and let you stay with me to be a little rich woman for the rest of my life. Look at each other, if you don't even want to look at each other, then just pretend I didn't say it."

Only then did Xiumei feel relieved: "Miss, I feel relieved when you say that. I am determined to accompany you all my life as a female landlord and rich man. How can I marry someone casually?"

Wei Ruo sighed slightly in her heart, for a moment she didn't know whether it was right to instill in Xiumei the idea that women should rely on themselves and not on men since she was a child.
