You fell off the horse just now

Humming a little tune, Wu Sicai stepped into the courtyard and saw Qingsun pacing in the courtyard, she waved her hand and said with a smile: "Good morning, Qingsun."

"Master!—"

"You're back!"

Qingsun pulled Wu Sicai's robe, "Where did you go, I almost thought something happened to you!"

Wu Sicai smiled cryptically, "I got drunk last night and stayed in the Qin residence."

"what……"

I have never seen my young master smile like this, and there is a bit of complacency in his smile, like a cat that ate melons and fruits in the kitchen.

Qingsun rolled her eyes, and quickly bent over to bow, "Young master, congratulations! Congratulations, young master, a good thing is coming soon!"

Wu Sicai covered her face, the place Jin Fangfei kissed was still faintly hot.

"Good talk, good talk."

Can't help laughing.

"What's so happy about it? It makes grandma happy."

Wu Sicai looked back and saw that the old lady walked into the yard slowly with a cane.

"Why are you here?" Wu Sicai stepped forward to help her, and the old lady came after she entered the house, probably looking for her specially.

Wu Sicai helped Mrs. Wu to sit down in front of the stone table in the yard, "Call me if you have anything to do, I won't bother you."

When the words fell behind, Sicai ordered Qingsun next to her, "Go, let the kitchen bring some snacks and chrysanthemum tea that grandma likes."

Mrs. Wu glanced at her, "Don't think that I don't know when I'm old, where did you sleep last night? You are also a person who is about to get married. It is not a good sign that you are not coming home at night."

Wu Sicai was taken aback for a while, but he didn't dare to say that he stayed in the Qin residence.

"Where are you thinking? Don't you understand me? I'm the one who waits for flowers and asks Liu?"

Mrs. Wu did not expose Wu Sicai, and when she approached, she could smell a faint smell of alcohol.

"You, because of the sudden occurrence of the previous incident and the need to deal with the aftermath, I haven't talked to you, grandma, for a long time. Today, I finally got the opportunity. You have to listen to what grandma said."

Mrs. Wu looked at the grandson and asked earnestly, "Your father is already preparing for the marriage proposal, but grandma still wants to ask you, do you have any plans for the life after marriage?"

In fact, Wu Sicai has been asking herself this question all the time, how she plans to face the future.

She is destined to have no children, how long can her identity be kept secret.Where will the Xibohou Mansion, which may be turned upside down at any time, go?

It wasn't until yesterday that she vaguely had an answer.

Seeing Wu Sicai's silence, Mrs. Wu thought she was avoiding as usual, and slowly said: "Speaking of which, when you were in school, you were very good at all your homework. I don't know why it suddenly plummeted, and you even lost interest in school and turned to business. However, it is rare that my grandson is a genius, and his business is also flourishing, which makes my grandmother very pleased."

Wu Sicai already understood the purpose of the old lady, which is rare, after so many years, the old lady never gave up, probably waiting for her to make up her mind.

"You used to be more inclined to be a businessman if you wanted to, but after the kidnapping of the daughter of the Jin family, grandma asked you, have you changed your mind now?"

Wu Sicai knew that the old lady wanted to persuade her to become an official, but she didn't understand how this had anything to do with Jin Fangfei's captivity.

"The grandson is puzzled, so he asks the grandmother to clarify."

Mrs. Wu held her crutches, "Grandmother has a few questions, but I want you to clear up your doubts. One, if your father didn't find out what you were investigating in time to help you find Fu Yin, Mr. Fu would risk opening the city gate for you in the middle of the night, what are you going to do?" How to get out of the city to save people?"

Wu Sicai was startled, at that time she was thinking of going back to the house to find her father, but she never thought about the other situation.Without her father's help, she would never be able to leave the city, and could only wait until the city gate opened the next day.

Remembering the situation that day, if she really waited until the next day, she might find Jin Fangfei's body!

Wu Sicai was shocked violently.

"For another example, if Mr. Fu Yin hadn't entered the palace early in the morning to plead guilty, promptly grasped the truth of the Holy Majesty, and applied for a thorough investigation of Qunfang Yuan, how would you deal with the matter of Qunfang Yuan?"

What Wu Sicai thought was to tear down the signboard of Qunfangyuan so that they can no longer harm others.However, with the power of the people behind Qunfangyuan, it must not be easy for her to want Qunfangyuan to fall.

Mrs. Wu sighed, "All the people in Qunfangyuan are currently being put in prisons awaiting trial. What do you think will happen to them? But you think, Fang Fei's child is also the daughter of an official family, and the people in Qunfangyuan dare to do it easily. , which shows that there is no power behind it."

"Although the world is fair, it is not fair everywhere. If you want to survive in the world, you often have to rely on the Dao. You are the only heir to the Xibohou Mansion. Grandma understands that the hopes of the whole family are placed on you. The burden on your shoulders It will inevitably make you breathless, but grandma doesn't want you to choose to escape."

"If you were really a mediocre person, grandma wouldn't dare to hand over the Marquis Mansion to you. But grandma knows that you are not a dull person, but for some reason you have always resisted inheriting everything in the Marquis Mansion."

"But today is different. You are also a person who is about to start a family. It is not a wise choice to waste your time. In the future, your wife, your descendants, and their honor and disgrace can all be tied to you, as the future head of the family. , What you have to learn is to take responsibility instead of avoiding it.”

After the words were finished, Qingsun just brought tea, Mrs. Wu hurriedly ordered Qingsun to pour her a cup of tea. After such a long conversation, she was already thirsty.

"Madam, please."

Qingsun handed over the tea and silently observed the young master's reaction, what did the old lady mention, the young master looked very preoccupied, and he was quite happy when he returned home.

Mrs. Wu watched her grandson's reaction while drinking tea. Sure enough, people grow up only when they experience something. This time, Wu Sicai did not always show a kind of rejection and helplessness in his eyes like before.

In fact, Wu Sicai has had an epiphany since hearing what Qin Mingren said yesterday. In the past, she always felt that the identity of the third young master of the Xibohou Mansion was a burden and a shackle on her body. Break free from the shackles.

But yesterday and today, Wu Si thought of another possibility.

Maybe she doesn't have to leave her identity as the third young master of the Xibohou Mansion.

It took a long time before Wu Sicai raised his eyes, and his eyes gradually became clear.

"Grandmother, my grandson understands what you said. Don't worry, although my grandson can't promise to make our Xibohou Mansion a higher level, my grandson will do my best to protect our family business and prevent it from falling into the hands of my grandson." Throw it away."

The tea lid knocked lightly on the teacup, making a crisp sound.

A flash of surprise flashed in Mrs. Wu's eyes, followed by relief.

Lettuce let out a sigh uncontrollably.

Mrs. Wu is only paying attention to Wu Sicai at the moment, "Have you figured it out?"

Wu Sicai nodded, "In the past, it was my grandson who was thinking about it for a while. Now I understand what you said before. Doing business is not the right way, but it is not suitable for the future survival of our Xibohou Mansion. The eldest sister and the second sister are married. As the Wu family The only descendant in this generation, I really shouldn't run away. What's more, I will marry Fang Fei in the future, and others will have the blessings. I don't want her to fall one step behind."

Mrs. Wu heard so much meaning, I am afraid that the last words are the purpose of Wu Sicai's change.But no matter what, as long as he figured it out, it didn't matter what the purpose was.

Wu Sicai's voice paused slightly, and she sighed, "I just don't know if there is still time to start studying again."

Mrs. Wu looked even more relieved when she heard this, and she sighed that Jin Fangfei was a lucky star.

"What's so difficult about it? You've been smart since you were a child, and your grandmother knew you'd never lost a book. It's just that there are a lot of things involved in the imperial examination. It really takes a lot of work to prepare at this time. But Mr. Li Fang, a senior scholar, used to be a A close friend of your grandfather, if you ask him to teach you, half a year of hard work is enough for others to work hard for years."

Wu Sicai remembered that Mr. Li Fang Li was well-read and well-respected, and was respected by others. When she was young, she was fortunate to have met Mr. Li a few times, and he once praised him for being smart.If I didn't think about it for a while, I would have worshiped under him.

"If you can get Mr. Li to teach you, it will definitely help you a lot. I need to ask grandma to take care of this matter."

Seeing that her grandson had never had such a studious temperament, Mrs. Wu couldn't keep her mouth shut when she smiled, so she said, "Let's leave it to grandma!"

The old madam still has another concern, "Then the foundation you laid before..."

If it is possible, Mrs. Wu naturally hopes that Wu Sicai will let go, but her grandson has already figured it out, so she has no intention of forcing this matter.

Wu Sicai thought about the matter of doing business clearly on the way back home, and immediately responded: "Of course you can't let go of what you have built so hard, it's just like you said before, changing the business on the bright side, grandson Just take the helm."

How could Wu Sicai let go of the wealth of ten thousand gold a year.

Mrs. Wu nodded, "Family business is naturally a good thing."

"But..." Wu Sicai blushed slightly.

"Ok?"

Mrs. Wu was in a good mood, "If you have any request, just ask."

Wu Sicai was pinching his sleeves, looking coy.

"It's my grandson... I want to marry Fang Fei earlier."

Mrs. Wu was taken aback. It seemed that her grandson was absolutely devoted to the daughter of the Jin family. After all, like a father like a son, she should have expected this earlier.

But fortunately, God blesses Wu's family.

"Haha...get married first and then start a career. You can only study hard if you are determined to start a family earlier."

Mrs. Wu made a final decision, "Tomorrow I will prepare a gift for your father to propose marriage!"

Wu Sicai pursed her lips and smiled, "The grandson, thank you grandma first!"

But Wu Sicai's smile didn't last long.

"This is a family, let your daughter-in-law quickly give birth to a cub, and the branches and leaves will spread, and the grandmother, an old woman, will be able to look at her great-grandson before she dies. explained."

Mrs. Wu looked forward to it, as if she had been looking forward to it for a long time.

Wu Sicai was stunned and did not answer.

Where did she and Jin Fangfei find a baby to carry on the family line.

How did Mrs. Wu know what Wu Sicai was thinking at this time, and Wu Sicai's change today really made her happy, and she also had to plan for Wu Sicai's future, thinking of Mrs. Wu, she left excitedly.

After a long time, Qingsun saw that Wu Sicai was still, and waved her hand in front of her.

"Master, are you still the young master?"

Wu Sicai came back to his senses, and pushed Qingsun's hand away, "Then do you think I look fake?"

Qingsun "hehe" smiled, "It's not like that."

"Why do you want to be an official all of a sudden? Let's stop doing business?"

"Didn't I mention it just now, officials have to take exams, and business has to be done!"

Qingsun smiled and said: "Yes, yes, that white money can be earned."

In fact, Qingsun thinks that it is interesting to be an official to do business, and besides, if an official is not careful, he will have to kill all the people, so why bother.

"By the way, young master, what you asked me to investigate has some clues."

"Lin Shuping is currently hiding in the mountains with Liu Rulan."

It's no wonder that the people from the Lin family couldn't find them anyway, they hid in the mountains and lived a life isolated from the outside world.

Wu Sicai hummed.

"Bring people back and leave them alone."

Anyway, Mrs. Qin was reconsidering this marriage, and Lin Shuping didn't show up for a long time. It was the Lin family who was anxious, what was she worrying about.But I have to say that Liu Rulan probably did it on purpose when she left Beijing, so Lin Shuping followed Liu Rulan after her.

One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.

"You send someone to send a message to the Qin residence." This matter is related to Qin Minghui, so it's better to let her make the decision.

Qingsun immediately responded and hurried to the Qin residence.

Wu Sicai was originally happy because of the change in Jin Fangfei's attitude towards her, but the news that Qingsun brought back made her nervous again.

Mrs. Jin took the initiative to ask to see her.

Wu Sicai was in a nervous mood, but even if it was a Hongmen banquet, she was determined to go, otherwise, how could Madam Jin feel relieved to hand Fang Fei into her hands.

But she is not without scheming.

……

"father!"

Wu Sicai ran into the courtyard of the main study weeping, Xi Bohou was studying the matter of proposing marriage tomorrow.The old lady had already come to inform him, and he was still curious about how the kid changed his mind and started to improve, when he heard Wu Sicai's cry from outside the door.

Xibohou lowered his face and reprimanded: "I just said that you are much more stable, why are you so ignorant?"

Wu Sicai ran in with an aggrieved face, "Father, I need your help!"

Xibohou regained his energy when he heard this, but this kid has never begged him.

"Cough—let's hear what's going on."

"Mrs. Jin said she wanted to see her, and she seemed to be trying to make things difficult!"

Madam Jin...

"But Fang Fei's mother?"

"Exactly!"

"Isn't her mother supposed to be in Mangzhou?"

"I just came back yesterday!"

Xi Bohou saw some fear in Wu Sicai's eyes, "I'm worthless, isn't she the mother-in-law? I'm so afraid!"

Wu Sicai choked and said, "Aren't you also afraid of my grandmother?"

"Hey!" Xi Bohou glared at her, "I'm not afraid, but respect!"

"All right, respect. I also respect Mrs. Jin. What do you think I should do?"

Xi Bohou stroked his beard, "I'm so afraid, Mrs. Jin is just here, this is the words of the marriage matchmaker, the order of the parents, tomorrow I will come to propose marriage, you come with me!"

"okay!"

The author has something to say: Sorry, I went on an outing with my family on the weekend, so I didn't have time to update it! ! !
