Farming and reading lady

Yin Xiao nodded: "Didn't grandma say that Yan Mojing once mentioned an engagement with the Gu family? I think this is true. According to the information revealed by Yan Honglou, this time they are targeting the young master of the Yan family, Yan Ming, and my little cousin."

"Hmph, they really have a good idea. If they want to marry, then they can. But have you asked my Zhenguo Mansion if it agrees?" Zhenguogong snorted coldly. Is it easy for him to have a niece? If you want to pick peaches, you have to ask him first if he agrees.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo glanced at her husband with amusement and said, "Forget it. If it were my brother-in-law, they would have something to say about this matter. Why are you making trouble when you have nothing to do with it?"

"Madam, what you said is wrong. The little girl is my sister's adopted daughter. The emperor said so himself. I am their uncle, so why can't I have a say? You are being polite." The Duke of Zhenguo was not convinced. Anyway, he was determined to hold on to this niece.

"You deserve to be beaten. I said the wrong thing. However, even if he is your uncle, it doesn't make sense for him to interfere in his niece's marriage. You'd better not make him unhappy." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo listened to her husband's words and noticed the disapproving look of her mother-in-law. She knew she had said something wrong and hurried to make amends. But she also sincerely felt that the Duke of Zhenguo was overreaching.

"Mother, we treat the two little ones as our own brothers and sisters, so we can take care of this matter." Yin Xiao also felt that the soft and sweet sister should not be easily taken away by the wolf.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo looked up at the sky in silence. Their family was full of women-loving maniacs who would not let go of anyone who had anything to do with them. She should just shut up.

So the family began to discuss various criteria for choosing a son-in-law, which were still non-existent for Gu Xixian.

Gu Xixian, who was far away in Xiaoyuewan Village, sneezed more than ten times. She held a small hoe in one hand and rubbed her nose with the other hand, looking up at the sky innocently. The weather was fine and the breeze was gentle, which didn't seem like it would make people catch a cold. So what was going on with her continuous sneezing? This didn't conform to the logic of thinking first, scolding second, and catching a cold third? Could it be that a bunch of people in the capital were chasing after her paintings again?

Just like a mouse finding rice, a sly smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Silver is her favorite.

There was no class in the afternoon, so she swung the small grass basket on her back and went back to the mountain. She found that the mountain was very friendly to her. She had never encountered the dangers of other people's mountains, but it always gave her some surprises from time to time, rare mountain treasures, rare orchids, rare mountain ginseng...all of these turned into her big money. She felt that the mountain was ready to push her into a small rich woman. Asked her where the sales channel was? This had to mention the few Yin guards who stayed behind, excellent escort experts. She really didn't expect that Prince Yin would let several people obey her orders, and only her orders. I still remember that after returning, I went up the mountain and got a very rare Jianlan from Daling State. When she was lamenting that no one knew the famous flower and only treated it as an ordinary thing, Yin Shiwu jumped out and said that if she wanted, she could send it to the capital to sell it.

She hesitated, thinking that it was too time-consuming and laborious to go back and forth, and she was afraid that the cost of the round trip would be more expensive than the flowers. As a result, Yin Shiwu said that this orchid could buy several of them. She was so excited that she almost jumped up and down, which was beyond her imagination. That time Yin Shiwu brought her back 1,500 taels of silver notes, and she kept lamenting that poverty limited her imagination. It turned out that there were so many rich people in the capital. She happily gave Yin Shiwu 1% of the money from selling flowers as running expenses. Yin Shiwu was so happy that his teeth fell out, and then the other Yins knew about it. Then several people quietly made a fortune, and it was out of control. She picked up treasures, they were in charge of sales, she collected money, and they had running expenses. After half a year, the pockets of several Yins were bulging. You know, although the annual salary of their Yin guards was higher than that of ordinary guards, it was no more than 100 taels. In just a few months, they all had an income of several hundred taels. The youngest Yin Shiwu kept shouting that he would marry a wife when he returned. Of course, this income was unknown to everyone in the family. Living in this era where men are superior to women, she really does not have much sense of security. Only the money in her hands can make her feel a little at ease.

In Mingyue Town, the Yan family caravan has stayed here for half a year. During this half year, Yan Ming and Yan Zhijin came to Xiaoyuewan Village eight times, each time to discuss cooperation, and visiting the Gu family seemed to be just a side trip. But no one knew that the two of them had learned about all the matters of the Gu family, even if they were only superficial. But in their eyes, the Gu family in Xiaoyuewan Village was only superficial.

Did Yan Ming know about the Yin Wei? Of course he knew, after all, they were old acquaintances that he often dealt with in the capital, but he couldn't figure out why the Zhenguogong Mansion kept these people with Gu Xixian. Even relatives can only be said to be far-fetched, so keeping the Yin Wei is a bit intriguing. He pondered the reason for this, but could not figure it out for a long time. He would never think that the Zhenguogong family was just obsessed with and partial to their daughter.

"Young Master, the Gu family has more than a handful of scholars, but none of them seem to want to enter the government. What do you think they think?" Yan Zhijin felt that everyone in the Gu family had strange ideas. When talking about business, the Yan family's titles were very clear.

Yan Ming held the chess pieces in both hands and tore them apart. Without even raising his eyes, he said, "Didn't the old man want his children and grandchildren to be successful? He must have been scared by what happened to Gu Lao San. Just like the Gu family let go of him just because of Concubine Lan. The Gu family is too timid."

To be honest, he was a little disappointed. When he met Gu Xixian and his sister a few times in the capital, he was indeed amazed by their performance. But the power behind his wife's family should not be underestimated. Although the Gu family can be considered wealthy now, it is far from the Yan family in Panqiu, the capital. The marriage between the noble families is based on interests first. The current Gu family is not worthy of their Yan family. It is too tiring for the little girl to carry such a Gu family.

Seeing the young master's gradually declining feelings towards the Gu family in the past six months, Yan Zhijin frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Young master, it is not appropriate to bring too many powerful relationships into a marriage. And you know that this little girl from the Gu family is not an ordinary person."

"Well, she is indeed good." Yan Ming nodded in agreement. As a little girl, she was excellent, even better than most of the noble ladies in the capital. And her unyielding character also won his heart. He didn't want a mistress who would only guard the backyard, but a partner who could laugh side by side with him. From the information Yan Honglou found, it can be seen that Gu Xixian's performance met his requirements very well, and even better than he imagined. Otherwise, he would not have come here.

Thinking of this, he smiled suddenly. Marry a virtuous wife, marry a wife that pleases him. In this case, what's wrong with helping the Gu family?
