Dressed as cannon fodder and vowing to kick the heroine’s head off

Yun Xi's words made Chen Yuxuan and Gong Shulan silent for a long time.

For Gong Shulan, it would naturally be the most satisfying if her son could take the imperial examination and go to high school and then prosper in the officialdom. The family also had this condition to support him.

It's just that this son has always liked doing business more than studying. This may be something he inherited from his grandmother.

Looking at the whole family, there is really no one who can read.

My father-in-law, Chen Xiuqi, worshiped the prime minister, but he was not an outstanding scholar when he was young. His advantage was that he could follow the right people and be aware of their emotions.

As for my husband, Chen Deming, although he is now an official of the fourth rank, he barely managed to pass the imperial examination when he was taking the imperial examination. He got to his current position through strong connections with the family and backstage, but he has been stagnant for a long time.

Still a sinecure. Although it is from the fourth grade, it is far less solid than other people's fifth grade.

The grandchildren, except for his own son, the other two grandsons born to the concubine are not doing well either. One of them, a scholar, had passed the exam several times, and the other could not even pass the exam as a child.

"Does my cousin have a girl he likes?" Looking at her handsome cousin, Yun Xi suddenly became curious.

"For someone as handsome as my cousin, there must be a lot of girls who like him, right?"

Xiao Chenyi is very good-looking, but when he faces other women, he always has a coldness about him and keeps them away thousands of miles away.

But my cousin is a warm type, a warm man.

This type of man should be easier for girls to like.

Speaking of which, my cousin is in his twenties this year, right? As old as my cousin, there were very few people in ancient times who were not married.

Unless the family is too poor to get a wife; or the status you like is too low to marry as the first wife.

Yun Xi guessed it was the second type.

Sure enough, Chen Yuxuan pursed his lips and reached out to flick Yun Xi's forehead, his ears gradually turning red: "Little girl, what are you thinking about all day long?"

Speaking of this, Gong Shulan also complained: "Yes, why not? All the girls are chasing me to the house, and he won't let go. What can I do?"

"Ah? Really? Who is there?" Yun Xi's eyes were shining, and his heart was burning with gossip.

"Mom!" Chen Yuxuan stopped him with a red face, "Don't ruin my reputation."

"Cousin, I didn't expect you to be a gentleman!" Yun Xi covered her mouth and kept laughing.

"What can't you say? She looks for opportunities to meet you every once in a while, and even gives you sachets and handkerchiefs. She writes poems and gives you paintings. Her intentions are so obvious that everyone can see it! Do you think that others don't Do you know? Everyone in the capital knows it! Since you are so good and care about others’ reputations, then marry them in!”

Gong Shulan gets angry just thinking about it.

"Yun Xi, you don't know, this brat is so blessed that he doesn't know how to be blessed. If he doesn't cherish such a good girl, he will regret it in the future."

"Mom, she is not suitable. I can't hurt her!" Chen Yuxuan said with a blushing face.

"Why did you harm her? Our two families are from the same family, the boy is unmarried and the girl is unmarried. She is happy to marry you, but you marry her and live a good life, isn't it good? Please explain clearly, why did you harm her? "

Gong Shulan took the opportunity to ask.

Every time I mentioned this, the brat would remain silent.

It made her anxious.

"Mom, I won't marry her, so don't ask. And don't talk about her anymore." Chen Yuxuan lowered his head and said.

"Aunt, this girl you are talking about is..." Yun Xi asked curiously.

If possible, she hopes that her cousin's lover will eventually get married. Maybe I can help?

Regardless of her son's objections, Gong Shulan pulled Yun Xi aside and complained: "She is the daughter of Wu Shilang's family, Wu Ronghua. She has liked your cousin since she was ten years old, and she has been waiting for him for ten years. The girl has a well-matched family background, good looks, and a lively personality. The key is that she is devoted to your cousin. Such a good girl, what do you think your cousin thinks? He just won’t agree. "

It's not that his son's condition is not good.

In fact, she had seen Wu Ronghua several times and she liked her very much. He smiles when he meets everyone, never speaks ill of others, is well-educated and gentle to his servants. If such a girl turns around and leaves in the end, Gong Shulan will really regret it and hit the wall!

"Then Mr. Wu's family has one wife and one concubine, one legitimate son, one legitimate daughter, and two concubines. Wu Ronghua is the legitimate daughter, and her brother is three years older than her. He has also been worshiped as a fifth-rank official, so he treats her well. Mother Wu is not a rich man. Speaking of which, Minister Wu is famous for his good temper..."

Unable to bear it anymore, Gong Shulan whispered to Yun Xi the news she had learned.

"Aunt, does my brother have someone he likes?" Yun Xi leaned over and asked softly.

The power of love is powerful!

If my cousin has someone in his heart, no matter how good the other person is, he won't be able to get into his eyes.

"No way?" Gong Shulan looked in the direction of her son in surprise. Seeing him sitting at the table and looking at the account book, she lowered her voice and said, "If he likes something, why doesn't he tell me? I won't stop him. .”

"Maybe there are some reasons?" Yun Xi guessed.

Some things are just a click away. It's not very good for her as an outsider to tell it.

"Then what should we do?" Gong Shulan looked worried.

"Aunt, you can arrange for someone to follow my cousin." Yun Xi quietly gave her some advice, "See if my cousin likes another woman. Then check the details of that woman to see if my cousin wants to marry her. "

Gong Shulan nervously turned her head to look at her son, and saw that he was still sitting far away looking at the account books and had no idea about them. She turned around and pulled Yun Xi closer, frowning and asked: "Do you suspect that he... likes women from poor backgrounds?" ?”

Otherwise, why can't you say it?

"I'm just guessing, not sure." Yun Xi lowered her voice.

It's okay for him to say bad things about people in front of his face.

"Then what should we do?" Gong Shulan looked sad.

A poor woman is not suitable for their family, and the old prime minister would not agree to it in the first place.

The sons of those two concubines would marry either rich women or low-level officials. If her son married a woman from a poor family, she would not be happy! Isn't this being compared to a scumbag?

Then Aunt Mei still has to laugh to death?

"Children and grandchildren are all debts! I'm worried to death. If this kid doesn't get married, I won't be able to hold my grandson until my death!" Gong Shulan became jealous when she thought of Aunt Mei's two chubby great-grandsons in the house.

When she went out to a party, the ladies in the capital all laughed at her for not having any grandchildren, and she was completely embarrassed.

The relationship between husband and wife is good, and the husband does not have concubines, which sounds very good.

But the only son is disobedient and won't marry, so it's useless no matter how good they are as a couple!

She, Gong Shulan, and Shen Deming are about to become extinct!

The father-in-law even suggested that Chen Deming take a concubine and have a few more children to ensure the prosperity of future generations.

She happened to hear him.

She was so angry that she couldn't sleep all night!
