Chapter 879: How Many Sisters Do You Have?
Zhen Yan's arrival temporarily alleviated the uneasy atmosphere present.
However, Yuan Xi's anger did not dissipate so quickly.
He shifted the spearhead from Zhen Yao's body to Zhen Yan's body.
"Zhen Yan, where is the grain and grass I want? I said that I would gather 30,000 stones of grain and grass in half a month, but now you actually tell me that there are only 3,000 stones, are you playing tricks on me? Could it be that you Zhen Yao want to rebel? ”
Yuan Xi deliberately raised his voice, and his tone changed, so that the people present, who were already very nervous, also changed their faces at this moment along with Yuan Xi's tone.
Zhen Yan saw that Yuan Xi's tone was not harmonious, and he knew that Yuan Xi was here to find something today.
"Childe is angry, angry, our Zhen family has always been the most staunch supporter of the Yuan family, how dare you rebel, even if you give me a few more guts, we don't dare to have such thoughts."
"The matter of grain and grass, it is indeed unfavorable for us to do things, but there is no way to do it, recently the grain and grass in various places are tightly locked, and the cost of last year's harvest is not good, we have been vigorously collecting grain and grass these days, and now we can only do this, we are also very distressed."
Yuan Xi doesn't care about the Zhen family's interfaces, Yuan Xi can only see the result, and this result is not satisfied, that is, the Zhen family is not doing things well, and deliberately makes things difficult for him Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi was about to have a seizure, and continued to say a few words to the Zhen family.
Tian Feng, who was standing on the side, immediately stood up.
After all, among the people present, Tian Feng was also a smart person, and he knew the difficulties of the Zhen family.
There has always been a shortage of grain and grass in the north, especially last year's harvest was not good, the people in the north lacked food, and the war launched by Yuan Shao also consumed a lot of grain and grass.
It is not easy for the Zhen family to be able to scrape together 3,000 stones of grain and grass at this time.
If he continues to press, it will not be good for Yuan Xi.
So when Yuan Xi still wanted to continue to blame the Zhen family, Tian Feng stood up and dissuaded Yuan Xi.
"Young master, the Zhen family also has its own difficulties, it has just been spring ploughing recently, and the grain and grass will have to wait at least three months before the harvest can be harvested, and it is not easy to collect grain and grass, give the Zhen family some time."
Originally, Yuan Xi couldn't bear it anymore, but after hearing Tian Feng's words, Yuan Xi still had to give some face.
He did not continue to open his mouth to blame the people of the Zhen family.
"Hmph, for the sake of Mr. Tian Feng's face, the matter of grain and grass, forget it for the time being, I will give you another ten days, 30,000 grains and grass, be sure to make it up for me!"
As soon as Yuan Xi said this, Zhen Yao and Zhen Yan, the assassins were all relieved.
On the contrary, Liu Zheng, Guo Jia and others, who were standing on the side, despised Yuan Xi's attitude a little.
The original Liu Zheng had never met Yuan Xi, and he was just hearsay about the three sons of the Yuan family.
Yuan Tan is still somewhat brave, which can be regarded as a slight strategy, and Yuan Xi's sense of existence is not high, he originally thought that he could win in the competition for the three sons, and he should also be a person with some ability, but today, this person treats his family like this.
But he is not a person who has achieved great things.
I thought that the matter of grain and grass was solved, and this matter would pass like this, and Yuan Xi should not have trouble with the Zhen family.
However, just when Zhen Yan came out, Yuan Xi suddenly remembered something, and immediately opened his mouth and asked Zhen Yan again.
"Zhen Yan, I heard how many sisters do you have?"
Zhen Yan was stunned.
He didn't understand what Yuan Xi meant by saying such a sentence at this time.
But since Yuan Xi asked, he couldn't help but answer, so he immediately replied respectfully to Yuan Xi.
"Hui Yu young master does have a few younger sisters."
"But two of them are already married, and three of them seem to have gone out on horseback in this village just now, and the young master has something to do with them?"
Zhen Yan asked Yuan Xi.
I don't know what the reason why Yuan Xi asked how many sisters he has, but at this time, he was still a little curious, and he didn't understand what Yuan Xi's idea was when he asked this.
And Yuan Xi heard Zhen Yan answer that there were really a few younger sisters, and said that he had just ridden out, and this time, Yuan Xi combined the girls he saw outside the dock just now, and they were completely right for a while.
"So good, so good."
Yuan Xi still had a hint of anger on his face, but after hearing Zhen Yan say that he had several younger sisters, the angry expression on his face swept away, replaced by excitement.
"Childe, what's so good?"
Zhen Yan looked at the change in the expression on Yuan Xi's face, and faintly had a bad feeling, but he didn't know what it was, so he could only answer after Yuan Xi finished speaking.
And Yuan Xi didn't hide it at the moment, coughed, and hurriedly said to Zhen Yao.
"Zhen Yan, ahem, I came to your Zhen family today, in fact, there is a big matter that I want to discuss with you."
"Big deal?"
Zhen Yan was already a little curious about what Yuan Xi said, but when he saw Yuan Xi saying that it was a big deal, he was even more curious, and immediately asked Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi was also cheeky, and said to Zhen Yan without shame.
"The Zhen family has a close relationship with my father, and the Zhen family is also good friends with my Yuan family, so I want to make the relationship between the two families go further."
As soon as Yuan Xi said this, Zhen Yan's face changed, and he realized what Yuan Xi meant.
When Zhen Yan was still silent, Yuan Xi continued to speak.
"Fang Cai, when I entered this Zhen Jiawu Fort, I saw Ling Mei, who is not much younger than me, I should not be married, I Yuan Xi is also a talent, the fourth generation of the Yuan family and the third prince are famous all over the world, and it should be more than enough to match your Zhen family, so I want to marry your sister."
"What do you think of this?"
Yuan Xi said everything about this, although he was just asking, but with an unquestioning look.
Of course, Zhen Yan didn't want her sister to marry Yuan Xi.
If the Yuan family was still in power when Yuan Shao was in power, Zhen Yan might still consider marrying the Yuan family.
But now, as soon as Yuan Shao dies, there is chaos in the north, and it is not clear who of the three brothers of the Yuan family will win and who will lose.
Although Zhen Yan is the head of the family, he also loves his sister very much.
"Gong ...... Childe, my sister Zhen Dao is still young, and she is still ...... It's not enough to be married. ”
Zhen Yan wanted to refuse, but he couldn't refuse Yuan Xi directly, otherwise he would anger Yuan Xi, but it would not be so easy to settle.
I can only delay it euphemistically to see if I can fool the past.
