The letter said that Cai Ming's persuasion failed, and the Xia family refused to give up, and frankly wanted to accept Qingqing as a concubine.

This is where Guo Daquan acted carefully: Han Xiyi had warned about this matter a long time ago, and he further affirmed to Qingdu, so that she and her family would have a gradual acceptance process, and she couldn't bear it when she suddenly said it when she couldn't save it.

Sure enough, after reading the letter, he was not too uncomfortable.

She had been drawing for a long time, and felt that her eyes were tired, so she put down the letter and walked out.

When I went to the front yard, I saw that Aunt Cai was carrying a basket with a daughter-in-law to pick vegetables in the garden, so she followed. Winter is depressed everywhere, and only the vegetable garden is the most vibrant, and the cold-resistant and frost-resistant greens are delicious and pleasing to the eye.

"Oh, don't come here, look at the dirty shoes! The frost melted, and the ground was very damp. Aunt Cai saw her follow up and hurriedly stopped her, and looked at her and smiled, "What's so fun in the vegetable garden, you run in!" ”

Dumb then stopped, and stood by the fence to watch them pick vegetables.

Chopped a basket of greens, and chopped yellow cabbage.

He said dumbly: "Auntie, pull out some radishes." Stew the duck soup and make the radish cake again. ”

Aunt Cai smiled: "Oh, good! ”

He smiled again: "I love radishes so much." I didn't eat it yesterday. ”

He smiled dumbly and did not answer.

She also knew that even if she didn't say it, Aunt Cai would pull the turnip. In winter, just these few dishes, what to eat if you don't eat this. She looked at the green and shiny tassels of the radishes, and some of the radishes below were half cut out of the ground, and the water was very cute, and she felt articulate, so she couldn't help but admonish.

The crops here are cultivated without a little trickery, and there is no comparison with those in the previous life.

But. After traveling between the city and the countryside, she found that the food she ate in the city was not as sweet as at home. The vegetables bought in the city are picked by the people from the ground in the morning, and it has been half a day from the ground to the pot, and there is always some drying and dehydration; At home, they are picked from the vegetable garden and washed in the kitchen. The fresh and tender aura of vegetables is not lost at all, how can it be bad.

Thinking about this, she was in a good mood, and worked hard to earn money in order to live such an idyllic life.

In the previous life, people in the city said that they longed for a rural life, and if they were really allowed to go to the countryside, I believe that few would be able to survive. In fact, they are all like her, hoping to live a life like this: not embarrassed. They are also free, and if they go to the countryside to work as peasants themselves, they will not be able to adapt to it.

She looked at the turnips and greens on the ridges of the field. I thought, "For your sake, I will work hard." Young Master Xia, no matter how good you are, I won't stoop to you! ”

No matter how good the eunuchs are. None of them are where she ends.

Xia Liuxing didn't know what she was thinking. There are other plans.

Cai Ming persuaded him that day, but he was very displeased, and said: "'Do to others what you do not want to be done to yourself'." Brother Cai fell in love with Miss Yan and tried his best to succeed in marrying her, why can't the younger brother love Guo Qingdu? ”

Cai Ming said: "Brother Xian, Brother Fool is not a nosy person, today I advise Brother Xian: Master Xia is a parent official in the weaving industry, and Miss Guo has repeatedly innovated in the past two years. The identity is sensitive, and the Xia Guo family is really not suitable for marriage. Think twice! ”

Xia Liuxing sneered: "My father is not a first-time weaving officer. It's been several years. It is very unnecessary to do this for the sake of a Guo family. It's Brother Cai, I'm here to persuade the little brother today, is it really good for the little brother? What those people think in their hearts, the younger brother can also think about it. After the Xia and Guo families got married, the Xia family could protect the Guo family from being used by mercenary people. ”

Cai Ming said: "But the Guo family is unwilling, and Miss Guo is not happy." ”

Xia Liuxing said: "Miss Yan didn't reject you at first!" ”

Cai Ming came to this point, of course, he did a lot of work. He had a plan: he didn't expect to persuade Xia Liuxing, but he hoped to force him with words, lest he use his power to oppress the Guo family in the future.

He said: "Miss Yan rejected Brother Yu, but Brother Yu never persecuted her. The virtuous brother did not back down, and the foolish brother couldn't stop it, just one sentence: The virtuous brother is a gentleman who reads the sage books, and I hope to be able to emotionalize Miss Guo with true feelings, so don't persecute it. so as not to be criticized for bullying the Xia family. ”

Xia Liuxing's eyes showed a look of sarcasm, and he smiled: "Never persecuted? Could it be that Brother Cai forgot how he provoked Miss Yan to be like thunder, and how he shouted so loudly that everyone knew it, lest people not know that Third Young Master Cai liked the daughter of the Yan family! Now that you know, who would dare to fight Miss Yan's idea again? Who would dare to rob you? Whether Han Xiyi was scared away by you, or whether he had other thoughts, only he knows. Don't hide it from Brother Cai, the little brother was inspired by you, so he forcibly gave the guqin to Miss Guo, in fact, he wanted to announce to others: Young Master Ben likes Miss Guo! If you have the guts, just come and fight with this young master! ”

Cai Ming squirted out a sip of tea with a "poof".

He thought that his words were very sincere and reasonable, and Xia Liuxing would promise not to force Guo Qingdu even if he refused to back down, so after speaking, he picked up the teacup and drank tea, but who expected to hear such a response, so he squirted out all the tea.

By wiping his mouth, he quickly collected his thoughts.

Later, he said: "'My Fair Lady, Gentleman is good', it is the common love of my generation to love women. Brother Yu did pester Miss Yan before, but he never used the power in his family. What do you think? ”

Xia Liuxing snorted and said, "Your Third Young Master Cai's name is power!" ”

Cai Ming said: "The virtuous brother must say this, the foolish brother can't do it." Miss Guo is Miss Yan's best friend, and Miss Guo asks Miss Yan for help, so the foolish brother can't sit idly by. ”

He can't sit idly by, which means that the Cai family won't sit idly by.

Xia Meteor Huo Ran stood up and shook his hand away without saying a word.

Cai Ming looked at his back, and his face sank.

When Xia Liuxing returned home, Xia Weaving saw that he was not looking good, and asked why.

Xia Liuxing was very grateful to his father for supporting him to marry a merchant girl, so he told Cai Ming's words.

Xia Weaving groaned for a while, and told him that he could only help him take Guo Qingdu as a concubine.

Xia Liuxing was startled and lost his voice: "Father, how can this be done?" ”

Xia Weaving scolded: "Confused! It should be said that marrying her as a wife is how to make it. ”

followed, and told Uncle Jingzhong about looking for relatives for him.

He said: "Third Young Master Cai is not wrong. Marriage is the best way for two surnames to get married. If the Xia family marries Guo Qingmu as their eldest son's wife, I am afraid they will not be able to tell. People don't say that you are in love with Guo Qingdu, they will only say that the Xia family has intentions. Accepting concubines is different, the Xia family is still the Xia family, the Guo family is still the Guo family, and one concubine does not affect the decision of the two families. ”

Xia Liuxing hurriedly said: "Brother Cai is not ...... with Miss Yan."

Xia Weaving interrupted him and said, "The Yan family is a century-old family, and it can be compared to the new Guo family?" Moreover, Cai Ming is also different from you - he is the third son of the Cai family, and you are the eldest son of the Xia family. Your wife will be in charge of the Xia family's house in the future! ”

Xia Liuxing said: "However, is it inappropriate for Miss Naguo to be a concubine?" ”

Xia Weaving said: "How is it inappropriate? is just a village girl, and she has been dismissed twice in a row, and she has been involved in lawsuits and imprisoned. does not consider her identity as a business daughter, and on this basis alone, she is not worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the Xia family. Kenna her as a concubine, that is her blessing: not only can the Guo family be taken care of from now on, but she will not be remembered by villains, and all the new cloth designed can reach the court and the people. ”

Summer Meteor was dumbfounded.

Ban Xiang said with difficulty: "I was rejected for my marriage before, and now I want to accept her as a concubine, how can the Guo family agree?" ”

"That's not up to him!"

Speaking of this, Xia Weaving's anger came up.

He deliberately made Bao Changshi not clear before, which was also a test of the Guo family.

Who knew that the Guo family was so arrogant, they didn't take him in their eyes, and they dared to refuse to kiss!

Hmph, I don't want to think about it, if it weren't for him, would the Guo family be able to squeeze into the Splendid Hall?

Even if he doesn't know how to lift up, he doesn't have to be soft-hearted, and he wants Guo Daquan to send his sister to his son as a concubine, and his son takes a fancy to Guo Qingdu, which is a blessing from her third generation!

He was indignant, and as for the luck that the Guo family brought him, he forgot all about it.

Xia Liuxing remembered what Cai Ming said about "bullying others", and hurriedly said: "Father can't be forced." ”

Xia Weaving sneered: "Why force it! If you want to find a gap, it's easy. Take advantage of this time to let them know: He has been obedient before, but he has the ability, if there is no official to take care of it, can the Guo family have today? ”

Xia Liuxing is still not sure in his heart, and he still has to persuade.

Xia Weaving hated iron and did not become steel: "You love beauties again, and you can't be ruthless, how can you succeed?" She hides back in the countryside like this, you can't see her, how to let her know your heart, your benefits! Only by first trying to drive her to come to the door and agree to follow you, then you can persuade her with good words, so that she will understand that you love her, and there is nothing that will not change your mind. Taming a woman is like taming a fierce horse, you have to give both grace and power to be able to accept it! No matter how cold a woman is, get her back to dry her for a few years, and her red face will gradually wither, see if she can still support it! ”

Xia Liuxing was moved when he heard this, which was also in line with what he said to Cai Ming before.

He thinks that this is how Cai Ming captured Yan Weiyang's heart.

He was dumb and refused to see him, and he could not use his strength. If you can force her to come to him, it will be easy to do it. At that time, he had his own way of letting her know that he really loved her. As for the wife, it's just a name. A woman like her shouldn't care about fame, but about true love.

After thinking about it, he discussed with his father again, and then wrote a letter to his uncle in Jingzhong, to the effect that the Xia family is currently in the limelight, and it is best not to marry the big family or the powerful, and it is best to find a small official eunuch who has no strength to discuss the family, which is the fundamental measure to protect the prosperity of the Xia family.

He has both public and private concerns: first, he is afraid that the momentum of the Xia family is too strong, and he may have a crisis; Second, for Guo Qingdu, thinking of marrying a woman from a small official eunuch as his wife, without the support of his mother's family, he would not dare to bully his favorite concubine in the future - he had already thought about favoring Guo Qingmut in the future.

This can be regarded as his exhaustion, thinking that he was thoughtful, but he missed Guo Qingdu's variables and influences, and it was also because he never put the Guo family in his eyes.

A day later, Bao Changshi ordered someone to seal the west square of Guojiacheng.

The reason is: the Guo family is listed as the royal merchant of cotton spinning, and all the new tributes are not allowed to be disposed of without authorization, let alone bought and sold, but the Guo family gave towels to relatives and friends without the express indication of the imperial court, which is a big taboo!

Guo Daquan was stunned, this hat made him tremble.
