Thinking of his deceased daughter, Xia Yuchang sighed, looked up at the man who looked respectful, but in fact was not afraid, "I don't go around in circles with you, you don't want to show your identity, for the sake of your confession in front of the autumn girl, I won't ask, I just want to know, how can you let an old man who doesn't know anything about you rest assured that his granddaughter who didn't have a good time in the first half of his life will be handed over to you." ”

Duan Ziyi didn't expect Qiu'er's grandfather to be so ...... It's so straightforward, but this kind of conversation is more enjoyable than going around to get to the point, and he also wants to go out early, and after coming in for a long time, Qiu'er must be worried.

It's not a difficult question to answer, and he's been preparing for it from the moment he knew there would be such a conversation.

"After Qiu'er and I settle down, I will ask people to go back and make a detailed list of the things in my treasury one by one, and give them to Qiu'er as one of the dowry gifts when I am hired, and then everything I will become Qiu'er's dowry - will it be Qiu'er's dowry, right?"

"Don't worry, my Xia family will never covet your dowry even a penny of silver." Xia Yusheng made a deep guarantee, "However, how can you make me believe that this is really all you have?" ”

"Naturally, there are more than these, the treasury is full of dead things, in troubled times, these things are not as useful as a steamed bun, I regard Qiu'er as more important than my life, I will only give her the most valuable and useful things, such as enough food for an army of 3,000 people to eat for three or five years."

Xia Yusheng's old face couldn't suppress the shock in his heart, "You have an army?" Who are you? Is it Liang Guoren? ”

"I am naturally from Liang, and the army does not. But if there is a need, all the people under my command can be worth ten. Duan Ziyi was worried that the Xia family was calculating Qiu'er, and he didn't want to be too weak and easy to speak, so he went out with some warnings in and out of his words.

"Qiu'er is concerned about the Xia family in her heart, even for Qiu'er's sake, I will also pull the Xia family, but there is a premise, you must be worthy of Qiu'er's heart for your Xia family, she also told me yesterday that she has a maiden family, I hope this maiden family will not stick a knife in her heart at a critical moment."

Xia Yusheng's face changed. "Who do you think of my Xia family? If you look down on the Xia family. Why bother to marry the daughter of the Xia family. ”

"Qiu'er is the daughter of the Xia family, so I marry the daughter of the Xia family, if Qiu'er is the daughter of the Zhang family, I will marry the daughter of the Zhang family. I want Qiu'er. It has nothing to do with what her last name is. Duan Ziyi was unmoved. He has always believed that interests are the key to all relationships.

If Qiu'er hadn't done so much for the Xia family, she would have told them the facts that she would never be a drag on them. can even be their help, he doesn't believe that the Xia family can really do everything with that little bit of family affection.

He didn't forget that when Qiu'er had an accident, the Xia family who had been running for her from beginning to end had only one - Xia Jing.

No matter how many reasons there are, it just means that in their hearts, Qiu'er is not important enough to do anything for her.

Qiu'er pretended not to see this, he couldn't.

If Xia Jing needs anything, he Duan Ziyi has no words, and he will definitely help with all his might, but the Xia family will have to discount at least half.

Qiu'er's account, he remembers it more clearly than his own, and when the time comes, he will settle it one by one.

If it weren't for the fact that the old lady was really sincere to Qiu'er, he wouldn't have said those words to him at all.

Xia Yusheng's old face was almost unbearable, he couldn't say that he didn't have any selfishness, let alone guarantee that the rest of the Xia family didn't have calculations in his heart, but he dared to say that he really felt sorry for Qiu Ya and wanted her to have a good home.

But as long as there is a little selfishness in his heart, these words will lose their weight, and he doesn't understand this truth.

It's just that I didn't expect this young man, who has always behaved mildly, to be so sharp when he is not in front of Qiu'er.

That's it, it's not a bad thing for the Xia family to have such a tough uncle, and it's even more good for Qiu Ya to have such a husband to support her, and in the future, she won't have to be so tired alone.

Leaning back, Xia Yusheng looked very tired, "I understand what you mean, don't worry, as long as I live for a day, I will maintain Qiu Yatou for a day, you don't underestimate the Xia family, my two sons are very protective of Qiu Yatou, even if I am not there one day, they will not watch Qiu Yatou suffer and ignore it, you, be kind to Qiu Yatou, don't bully her mother's family." ”

Duan Ziyi got up and bowed, "If there is anything offensive in your words, please don't take it to heart, the ugly words are in front, and it will be easy to get along with a family in the future, in addition, the surname Zheng is my mother's surname, not false, I have a sincere heart for Qiu'er, and I will definitely live up to her." ”

After Duan Ziyi left, Xia Yusheng sat in his place for a long time and did not move, there was only one feeling in his heart, this young man was not simple, he was originally looking for someone to talk to, but when he arrived at Zuihou, it was the other party who really controlled the overall situation.

Is he old, or is the other party too strong?

Although the autumn girl suffered when she was young, with such a person to protect her in the future, life should be much better.

That's fine, that's fine!

Xia Hanqiu was absent-mindedly talking, and his eyes glanced at the door from time to time.

Fu Yingying knew what she was concerned about, and took the initiative to talk about the affairs of Huiting City, which lady is good to talk to, you can come and go when you have the opportunity, which son has a corrupt character, and when she sees him, she wants to take a detour, where is the pavilion messy, the girl's house can't go, which shop has the best rouge gouache, and which jewelry is the most fashionable......

This is all what the brothers and sisters of the Xia family who came to the pavilion for the first time need to know, and several of them have written it down by heart, how can they notice that Xia Hanqiu's heart is absent-minded.

Fortunately, he didn't wait long before he saw Duan Ziyi coming over.

Xia Hanqiu was immediately relieved, seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she walked up to him and asked, "Where's grandfather?" Why didn't they come out together? You guys...... What did you say? ”

Duan Ziyi replied to her one by one in a good mood, "The old lady is tired, he has a break in the study, there are guests at home, and he will come out in a while, he is not worried about my identity, he is afraid that I will deceive you and hurt you, so he asked me to ask me a few questions, rest assured, he did not embarrass me." ”

"When did I feel uneasy?" Xia Hanqiu turned his head duplicitously, and couldn't help blushing at Shang Yingying's smiling eyes.

The family has been preparing for a long time, and some small issues have been discussed on both sides, and they are basically settled, Mrs. Fu did not stay long, and left with her daughter.

Before leaving, Fu Yingying whispered to Xia Hanqiu and complained, "Look at my mother's jiashi, don't want to go out before I get married, you have to come and see me more often, there is no shortage of paper and pens at home, you can just conceive your story with me." ”

Xia Hanqiu was full of words, it was no problem for her to go often, but Yingying was afraid that she would not have time to pay attention to her at that time.

The Xia family only came to be the master, and everything in the domestic servant's family was behind, and they had to live in one after another, Xia Hanqiu didn't want to be here to make the eldest aunt unable to let go of his hands and feet to do things, plus there was Duan Baiyu at home, and after talking with him, he went to the other side.

Duan Ziyi raised his head and squinted at the white sun, "The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and this year is hotter than usual." ”

"yes." Xia Hanqiu also looked up, not without worry, "Don't let the man-made disaster come before it comes, the natural disaster will come first, and then the natural disaster and man-made disaster will be even more damaged." ”

The two glanced at each other, and their eyes were a little helpless.

Even if you know more than anyone else? It's not that you can't do anything except make some preparations secretly, and if you really go to tell others that there is going to be a war, how many people can the believers get?

Fu Rui will believe his words, firstly, because he knows his identity, and secondly, he is afraid that he thinks that his news comes from Wuwei Daoist.

How can others know that these words are the most unlikely to come from the mouth of the Wuwei Daoist, and the Wuwei Daoist is the one who will not reveal the heavenly secrets.

Thinking of Wuwei Daoist, Duan Ziyi was a little strange, how long had his letter been sent, and why hadn't he heard back yet?

Even if the Dao Master is not on the West Mountain, his disciples will send his letter to the Dao Master through their passage when they see him, what is going on this time?

Don't let anything happen to Xishan.

It shouldn't be possible, even if the whole world is in chaos, if there is no Taoist chief in charge, Xishan can't be chaotic.

With such doubts, it was the beginning of August in the blink of an eye.

There has been no rain for more than two months, and the weather is so hot that even if you sit still, your face is covered with sweat.

The stored ice is finally coming to good use this year.

Xia Hanqiu will ask the Tasong brothers to send ice three times a day, and the Fu family also sent some over, the Xia family has no place to store, so they simply handed it over to Hanqiu to deal with, Xia De sighed, as long as he doesn't go out, this summer is more comfortable than Chengyang.

But except for the two families who had been prepared for a long time, not to mention the common people, even the nobles were also miserable.

As the drought continues, so does water.

Xia Hanqiu was even more worried, disasters and disasters came together, no matter how you look at it, it is not a good thing.

I don't know if she remembers it badly, she doesn't remember that there was such a severe drought in the turbulent year of her life.

If it's still September......

"Don't think about it, no matter how good we are, we can't decide whether tomorrow will be sunny or rainy." Qiu'er had a bad appetite during this time, and she only drank half a bowl of porridge at once, and people lost weight when they saw it, and Duan Ziyi was so anxious that a big bag appeared on his forehead, which was so red that it was shiny.

"I feel very bad in my heart, I am heavy, and my heart is falling straight down." Xia Hanqiu covered her chest, she had a strange feeling, every time something happened, she felt it in her heart, and it was like this when Nian'er came, so she went to Shuxiangzhai early in the morning on the day she was sent by the ghost, and before going to bed on the day she was rescued, she was restless.

But she wasn't sure if it was really the case, because when her mother died, she didn't feel it at all.

Duan Ziyi had no way to take such a Qiu'er, and he was distressed, "I asked Ge Mu to show you." ”

"No, I'm not sick." Xia Hanqiu saw that he was so anxious, and suddenly felt that he was hypocritical, "Ru Niang, bring you what you eat, I'll eat some more." ”

"Hey, hey, the old slave will go get it right away." Ru Niang, who was also in a hurry, responded with her mouth full of words, and left with her front foot and back foot. (To be continued......)
