"What do you want? You still owe me so much money, you want to pay for it! ”

Wu Yi's reluctance just now disappeared in an instant, "That's because you want to go back to the capital yourself, so I won't go to the capital." ”

"Why, the capital is good."

"I want to go home and take care of my dad, I haven't seen him in a long time."

"Homesick?"

"Yes, although my father is very unreliable, it is my father anyway. It's not easy for him to pull me alone, and now his body is like this again, I don't take care of him, what will he do in the future? Besides, you're going home, and your guards have to go back with you, so my father won't have anyone to take care of him, and I won't have to go home to take care of him. ”

"Looks like you're really going to pay the bill!"

"Nope!"

"No, no, why are you so excited?"

After a long silence, Wu Yi finally asked, "Lord Zhou, are you going home to marry?" ”

"How do you know?"

"I heard at the door that day, Master Li said that you were going to marry a foreign princess."

"You ......"

"The princess must be beautiful, right? Like a fairy. Wu Yi smiled and said, "Does the princess dislike you as a county magistrate and a small official?" So let you go home, and later go to a foreign country to be a colt? ”

Zhou Qi didn't say a word, just listened to Wu Yi chatter as if he was drunk.

"Lord Zhou, no matter what that foreign princess thinks of you, I think you are a good official. Later, when you go to a foreign country and become a son-in-law to others, you will have to live a good life. ”

"Wu Yi, not everyone can be a colt."

"I know, it's all played on stage. You are the champion, the princess can't look down on you or the prime minister's daughter, there will always be everyone's daughter who takes a fancy to you, and your official career will be brilliant in the future. Wu Yi clasped his fists with both hands, "What is that called, don't forget Gou Fugui, haha." ”

Zhou Qi looked at Wu Yi, she was obviously smiling, but she seemed so lost. Maybe it's not Wu Yi who is lost, but himself.

"Wu Yi ......"

"My lord, don't worry, even if I, Wu Yi, smash the pot and sell iron, I will return the silver to you, maybe I will go to a foreign country to see you, don't turn your face and deny people because you are a colt."

"Wu Yi..."

"Oh yes, everyone is on the stage, and a lot of the ponies have abandoned their wives who are chaff, but luckily you don't. Hey, you didn't, did you? ”

"What nonsense, do I have a wife who is a bad chaff, don't you know?"

"How do I know? I work with my head down every day, how can I know about adults, I can't say it's good, there are women hidden in this house. ”

"Look, you're going to be angry again. I tell you, if you become a colt for others in the future, be kind to other people's princesses, don't always lose your temper, be careful that the princess gets angry and cuts you. You were in a foreign country at the time, and there was no one to take care of you. ”

"Also, reading at night is not good for your eyes, it's okay if you read less books, anyway, you will become the champion, you will still be a colt in the future, you have read enough books, no one dares to say that you have not read well."

"Oh yes, the foreign countries are much colder than this Huizhou city, so you can wear more clothes and eat more when you eat. Look at you, you eat a bowl of rice every day, you grow too thin, in case you freeze, what can you do? ”

"Wu Yi..."

"Lord Zhou, to be honest, you went to a foreign country, it's really a loss for our Great Zhou..."

"Wu Yi..."

"We have one less good official, maybe in a few years, His Majesty the Emperor will remember you and make you the prefect again."

"Wu Yi!"

Wu Yi finally stopped talking and looked at Zhou Qi with tears in her eyes.

"Wu Yi, come with me."

Wu Yi smiled, but still refused. "I really can't go to a foreign country."

"That's right, I don't want to go to a foreign country either."

"Then what's the matter, Her Royal Highness the princess is still waiting for you."

"Wu Yi, it was my father who asked me to marry the princess, and I can't help it."

"I know, you big family, your parents' orders matchmaker's words. But you have to think that you are much better than us people. Maybe one day I will marry a stupid son of a landlord in order to repay your money. Ha ha. ”

"Nonsense again."

"It's no nonsense, I knew this earlier, it would have been good to marry Qian Ning with a dead face at that time, he has money."

"I'm pretty rich, too."

Wu Yi glanced at the cycle, "Can you have no money, I owe you so much money." ”

Zhou Qi looked at Wu Yi, and finally couldn't help but say: "Wu Yi, I'm serious, you come with me, you owe me money, I don't want it." ”

"You're so generous? To be honest, I'm a little excited. ”

"So I asked you to go back to Beijing with me, isn't your home also from the north? When you go to the capital, you won't be uncomfortable. ”

"But you married the princess and are going to a foreign country, what am I doing in the capital?"

"I won't go to any foreign country, my family is also a famous family in the capital, so I don't need to get rich."

Wu Yi seemed to have discovered a new world, "Your family is so powerful?" Can you marry a princess and enter the door? ”

"That's right, my family, it's very powerful." Zhou Qi suddenly laughed, "My father is very rich, marry me a princess, no problem." ”

Wu Yi glared at Zhou Qi again, "What are you showing off, that's your father, not you." ”

"Me? I can raise you. ”

Looking at each other, Zhou Qi felt that he had said this too abruptly, and it seemed that he had said it too late.

"Wu Yi, as long as you want, I can support you for a lifetime."

Wu Yi was stunned, only to hear Zhou Qi say again: "In less than twenty days, I will go back, if I don't say it today, there will be no more chance."

Wu Yi, in my family, it is very big and complicated. There are many people, there is a lot of money, and there are many things.

But I'm the sister-in-law of the family, I can't ignore it, and I can't do this and that according to my own will. But I... This time, I would love to let me go once, and I would love to take you back, show you what my home looks like, and introduce you to my family. Even, I want to go to the future with you to see what you can become.

Wu Yi, I grew up with a lot of people coming and going around me. But most of them didn't impress me too much, they came and went, and I didn't care too much.

However, I'm about to go back to Beijing, and I'm wondering if I can come to Huizhou again in my life, it's all unknown, let alone see you again. If I don't take you with me, we'll be... Farewell. ”

Zhou Qi took Wu Yi's hand, "I thought that we would never see each other again, and my heart was empty, and even, for the first time, I even wanted to disobey my father's order and not go back!" But..."

Zhou Qi suddenly blamed himself, "Wan Ting is still waiting for me to save her, and my mother is also waiting for me to go back." ”

Zhou Qi sighed and continued: "My father, I don't like my mother in the first place, he thinks that my grandfather's family is too powerful and will threaten his status, so he snubs my mother in every way.

I am obviously the son-in-law, but my father has always taken the third brother with him, teaching him by word and deed, so many people say that my father only loves the concubine.

When I was at home, my mother kept telling me to fight and compare myself to all my brothers. She told me not to be happy, especially in front of my father, I had to be filial, I had to listen to him, and I couldn't disobey a word. My mother said that only in this way can we live, and even, inherit my father's family property and let that concubine pay the price.

Hehehe, Wu Yi, do you think I'm pitiful now? Although your father is unreliable, he is still wholeheartedly devoted to you, but what about me? My father had many sons, many wives and concubines, and many calculations. ”

Zhou Qi let out a sigh, "Wu Yi, I didn't want to fight with the third brother before, I felt bored." But now, when I am in Huizhou, especially when I am the magistrate, I have found that if you are not in a high position, you will not be able to do many things! You want to protect the people, you want to make a contribution, and many people stop you. ”

Zhou Qi glanced at Wu Yi, who was already stacked on the table with her hands on top of each other, her chin resting on her hands, as if she was drowsy.

"I shouldn't talk to you about this if I talk too much."

"It's okay to say it, I didn't expect you big families to have so many troubles. Thinking about it, I'm still doing well.

Although my father was unreliable, he took me to deceive and deceive me, and lost all my money. But I know that my dad did those things to support me, to make more money, so that I could marry a good man.

Master Zhou, let me tell you a secret. Wu Yi straightened her back and said to Zhou Qi: "My father and mother came together because they fell in love with each other, so I took my mother's surname, but later, the family was too poor, so my mother left and didn't take me." Over the years, my father was afraid that I would hate my mother, so he never told me. But in fact, I know, my mother remarried, married an old man as a concubine, and gave birth to a younger brother.

I don't hate her, because I know what it's like to be poor.

Master Zhou, everyone will have their own troubles, but we can't engrave our troubles on our minds and live with a sad face, right?

Maybe this is my life, and I'll take it. ”

Zhou Qi touched Wu Yi's head, "You suffered before, I will take good care of you in the future." How about it, come home with me? The wages will give you a little longer, and I don't want the old silver. ”

Wu Yi raised his head, "That's not good, I still have to pay back the money I owe you." In order to pay it back as soon as possible, you give me a little longer and give me two taels of silver left every month, which is excellent. ”

"Hehehe, you dare to say it."

"Lord Zhou, you just said that you would take care of me, why, when you mention silver, you turn your face and don't recognize people? Besides, I have traveled all the way to the capital to serve you, and you must not express it. ”

Zhou Qi thought to himself: Is it the same meaning to take care of and take care of care? However, Wu Yi is willing to return to Beijing with him, which is still excellent. Zhou Qi's heart suddenly guarded the clouds and saw the moon, "Cheng, that's decided, you go back with me." ”

Wu Yi nodded, "Well, I'm a fool if I don't earn money." ”

"Grinding."

"What to write?"

"Contract, I'm afraid you'll run away tomorrow."

Wu Yi rolled her eyes again, "Stingy, you know how to bully me." ”

Zhou Qiyang wrote the contract freely and handed it to Wu Yi.

Wu Yi looked at it and pouted: "You actually asked me to be a handyman for you for thirty years?" You're too ruthless! ”

"You owe me more than 10,000 taels of silver, and you can't pay it back in a hundred years, and now I'll let you work for thirty years, you're too much! I'm telling you, if you take the account to the next life, you will have to work as a handyman for me in the next life! ”

When Wu Yi heard this, he hurriedly signed it, "I can't be a handyman in my next life." ”

Zhou Qi took the contract and put it away satisfied.

"So what do you want to be in your next life?"

"A tree, of course."

"When a tree? What's so good about trees? ”

"How good the trees are, in the deep mountains and old forests, listening to the birds chirping, watching the morning glow and the sunset, so beautiful."

"Let you watch it every day, annoy you."

"It's not emotional. Hum. ”

Wu Yicai didn't bother to pay attention to Zhou Qi, "Are you done eating?" I'll take it, and I'll have to wash the dishes. ”

Wu Yi walked to the door, and Zhou Qi shouted, "Do a good job, give you a raise." ”

"Got it!"

Zhou Qi smiled and took out the contract again, looking at it in a comfortable mood, "Wu Yi, Wu Yi... This stupid woman will be confessed to me in this life. ”
