"Stop, I'm only fifteen this year, and I plan to get married when I'm twenty. I will only marry one person in a formal way, and I won't take concubines. Girl, there are many good guys, it's better to be someone's formal wife."

The girl lowered her head and said nothing.

"Master, my little Hua is very pretty, you should marry her, or she can be your maid."

Weng Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows, "Are you having trouble at home?"

The woman knelt down at Weng Xiaoxiao's feet with a plop, and the girl followed suit.

"Boss, Xiaohua's brother is nineteen this year, and we can't raise the betrothal gifts. We really have no choice. We arranged a marriage for Xiaohua, but she refused to agree after meeting so many people. Finally, she said she liked you. We need a betrothal gift from our daughter to marry our son, but we don't want our daughter to marry someone she doesn't like."

The girl lowered her head, bit her lips tightly, and still said nothing.

If it was purely out of vanity it would be easy to deal with, but what should we do in this situation?

It's impossible to take it back.

"You guys get up first."

Seeing that the two were indifferent, Weng Xiaoxiao turned her head and looked away, "Let me be frank, Xiaohua, I don't like you, and I will not marry you. But, I can give you the opportunity to make money, you can go to work in the workshop. That's all between us, and there's no need to see each other again." She wanted to ruthlessly stop the girl's thoughts and not waste her time.

The girl raised her head and looked at Weng Xiaoxiao pitifully, "Boss, do you really think nothing of me?"

Weng Xiaoxiao still didn't look at her, "I'll ask Manager Liu to help you find a good marriage."

After saying this, Weng Xiaoxiao left. Xiaohua's mother got up to chase her, but was stopped by Liu Yuan's wife.

As mothers, Liu Yuan's wife understood what the mother and daughter were thinking, but she had to say something fair, as she was even more afraid that they would anger their employer.

"The Dong family is kind but not without temper. Don't forget that Aunt Feng can break a bench with one kick. Now that Xiaohua has been promised to work in the workshop and my husband is helping to arrange a marriage, this matter is settled and cannot be reversed. Persuade the child that it has to be a matter of mutual consent and don't be stubborn. Don't worry, we won't tell anyone about this."

The woman wiped her tears and said, "Sister-in-law, I understand what you said. I will arrange a marriage for Xiaohua as soon as possible."

"That's a clear statement. With the boss taking care of the farm like this, our lives will only get better and better. We can't be indiscriminate, and we can't be ungrateful."

Xiaohua looked at Weng Xiaoxiao's back stubbornly, and was pulled away unwillingly.

......

Lin Changqing overheard this and left quietly because he was afraid that everyone would be embarrassed if they were discovered.

After this accident, Weng Xiaoxiao did not return to the village, but walked towards the farmland. She wanted to get some fresh air alone.

"What are your future plans?"

What plans could she have? She didn't have to get married.

"Earn more money in the next two years, train a few reliable helpers, and then go out less often in the future."

"Aren't you planning to get married?" Lin Changqing asked expectantly.

Weng Xiaoxiao reached out and broke off a branch, swinging it in her hand for fun, "I won't get married just because I'm old enough. As for the future, who knows?"

Lin Changqing was somewhat disappointed that she didn't have anyone she liked, but he was also glad that at least she didn't fall in love with anyone else.

"Weng Xiao, what kind of person do you like?"

Weng Xiaoxiao did not answer but asked, "Boyu, have you ever walked a long way alone?"

Without waiting for Lin Changqing to speak, Weng Xiaoxiao started talking to herself, "It took me more than ten days to walk from the capital to where the master was. I rode a donkey for more than a month to Yuelu, and then went from Yuelu to Yangzhou. In the past six months, I have been really free. I can go wherever I want and stay wherever I like."

"After wandering for a long time, you will get tired of it. When life is boring, you will want to do something. You must always have something to pursue so that your life will be more fulfilling. When the bank was the busiest, I stayed up late every day. My eyesight was not very good during that period, but I didn't feel bitter or tired. I can say that I enjoyed it."

Looking at the azure sky, Weng Xiaoxiao continued, "When friends accompany you for a while, even if you no longer keep in touch, you will be grateful. But it's different for lovers. If the purpose of the relationship is possession, if you can't be together, you will feel resentful and unwilling to give up, which will hurt others."

Weng Xiaoxiao threw away the branch in a casual manner, "It's too tiring to think about these things, so I just don't think about them anymore."

Lin Changqing had been listening quietly, taking in every word, and every word shook his heart.

She never relied on anyone to live, and she would never marry just to be dependent on someone, so how could he win her heart?

What should he do and what can he do?

Lin Changqing was silent.

......

"Boss, I looked up the almanac and the sixteenth is a good day to travel."

Weng Xiaoxiao didn't take the almanac and said directly: "Then let's do it on the 16th. I will come to see you off in person then."

He took out the prepared silver and put it on the table. "Give these six taels of silver to the five coachmen and your eldest son, one tael each. Let them buy whatever they need. Don't be reluctant to spend it. A poor family makes a rich road."

Liu Yuan stepped back and bowed, "I would like to thank the boss on their behalf."

This money solved the urgent problem. Some people couldn't even afford any decent clothes at home. How could they survive the cold winter in the north?

Weng Xiaoxiao waved her hand and said, "Chen Cheng will stay at the manor for the next few days. Liu Boduo will have to take care of him."

"Don't worry, Boss. It's my job."

Having finished speaking, Weng Xiaoxiao took the reins, climbed onto the horse gracefully, and rode away.

Feng Gu and others followed closely behind.

"Boyu, how about a match?"

"Am I still afraid of you?" Lin Changqing raised his eyebrows and whipped the horse to catch up.

They chased each other, and after the horses passed, the country road was filled with dust and the figures of people could not be seen clearly.

Several people returned home in a state of embarrassment, but they were happy in their hearts, especially Lin Changqing.

Weng Xiaoxiao didn't say anything polite and went straight back to her room. Even though it was a bit cold, she had to take a shower.

Hearing that the master wanted to take a bath, Chunxia hurriedly brought in two charcoal basins. She didn't let the two maids serve closely, and it was unknown whether they could figure out anything, anyway, Weng Xiaoxiao hadn't told them their identities yet.

Weng Xiaoxiao is not slow-witted, nor has she never been in love. Although Lin Changqing didn't say anything, the way he looked at her was different from before. She just didn't expect Lin Changqing to be so restrained. Fortunately, he didn't say anything. If he had said something, she didn't know how to face it.

How many people can resist the affectionate confession from a handsome guy? !

She felt she couldn't bear it.

But what happens after the window paper is broken?

It was enough to have a pair of star-crossed lovers around her, she didn't want to be a second one.

Weng Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and immersed herself in the warm water.
