When Yuan Xi told Diao Xiu'er about Cai Yan, Diao Xiu'er didn't seem surprised or at a loss. Instead, he helped Yuan Xi tell Wang Yun about his affairs, Wang Yun didn't know about Cai Yan, but he was somewhat reluctant to let Diao Xiuer follow him back to Hebei without passing the door.

Fortunately, Diao Xiuer and Yuan Xi finally convinced him.

After all, they are adopted daughters, and after Wang Yun weighed the pros and cons, he let them leave Luoyang, but asked not to make the matter public for the time being.

Yuan Xi has nothing to do.

Cai Yan is two years old and Diao Xiu'er is two years old, although the two of them are arrogant masters, they didn't expect to be together more than anyone else.

At this time, all the nobles generally have only one original match, and then the rest are concubines.

There are only a very few places in the folk that in addition to the original match, you can also add two flat wives under the original match.

Cai Yan, as the first woman Yuan Xi married, naturally did not let it be the original match.

But Diao Xiu'er was the first to give a dowry to Yuan Xi, and she was also the first daughter-in-law of the Yuan family as a whole.

So now Yuan Xi is in a dilemma, Mrs. Left and Right can still think about it before, but now that the emperor is sick, don't even think about it. Now there is only one way in his mind, that is, one of them should be the original partner and the other be the equal wife (it was also inappropriate in the family at that time), and neither of them should be concubines.

If Yuan Xi let Diao Xiuer be the original partner, Cai Yan would definitely be embarrassed, and on the contrary, he would definitely be sorry for Diao Xiuer.

Therefore, although the two of them talked happily on the road, Yuan Xi was still worried about these.

The luxurious carriage swayed all the way to Hebei. There is Yuan Shao's current lair. It's just that Yuan Shao hasn't come back for the New Year for several years.

This year, Yuan Xi said goodbye to Yuan Shao and returned to Hebei.

Although there were some worries in my heart, the time on the road still passed quickly, and a month passed in a blink of an eye.

Early that morning, the three of them packed up their appearance in the town restaurant, and got into the carriage early to rush home.

Cai Yan and Diao Xiuer have lost their former liveliness and become restrained.

Yuan Xi cleaned up his mood and teased the two of them: "Don't be restrained, my father is not here, my mother is often in the old mansion, I am the only one in my mansion, and I can't see outsiders on weekdays." ”

Cai Yan sat over and said next to him: "That's also our mother, how can it be regarded as an outsider?" I'm just afraid that if we come over like this, her old man won't think we're abrupt. ”

Yuan Xi knew what she was worried about, and explained: "Don't worry, there are two more daughters-in-law in plain water, it's too late for her to be happy, not to mention you and Xiu'er, with me, no one dares to say anything about you in Hebei." ”

After that, Yuan Xi asked Diao Xiu'er, who was sitting on the side, to sit over, put his arm around her shoulders and said, "I have something to discuss with the two of you." ”

Diao Xiu'er and Cai Yan glanced at each other, and quickly moved away, both silently lowering their heads.

"Alright, alright." Yuan Xi patted the two of them on the back, and said casually: "I, Yuan Xi, can put the two famous strange flowers in Luoyang into the account, and say it, who dares not to envy it?" This can be done, what else can't be done? I'm at my doorstep today, and I'm sure I'll get rid of what you've been glancing at for a month. ”

Diao Xiu'er stretched out her little hand and pinched the soft flesh on Yuan Xi's waist fiercely. Cai Yan steadied himself in the end, just sat up straight from his arms, and looked at him with his waist twisted.

Yuan Xi said: "I want to think about it, there are two best ways, you decide for yourself." ”

Diao Xiu'er also sat up from his arms, it was a matter of her life, and she had to pay attention to it. Politeness or something, that's all a liar.

"This first is that you two are equal wives, we don't want the original match, let her be empty forever."

Yuan Xi didn't wait for the two of her to answer, and said: "This second, that is, when the new emperor is replaced, let's spend some money and let him make a holy decree to allow me to add left and right wives, one for the two of you, both of you are the original match." ”

Cai Yan frowned and said, "Change the emperor, when will the emperor change?" ”

There were only three people in the carriage, so Cai Yan had no scruples when he spoke.

Diao Xiu'er didn't understand this, but when she heard him say that she would change the emperor, her face was still pale with fright, and she looked at him with big eyes in surprise and surprise.

Yuan Xi pulled Diao Xiu'er's arm, patted it gently, and said softly: "The emperor's illness is no longer a secret, he will survive this winter at most, and he will die next year, won't he change the emperor as soon as he dies?" ”

Cai Yan glanced at Diao Xiu'er, her eyes drooped slightly, she immediately raised her head and said in a low voice: "Let Xiu'er be your wife, but except for me, you are not allowed to buy other wives." ”

"Sister, ...... you?" Diao Xiu'er looked at her with a puzzled face, this month's relationship, Diao Xiu'er asked herself if she could still touch Cai Yan thoroughly, but she didn't expect that she would give up fighting for the right position at the end.

Yuan Xi also looked at her strangely, although he shamelessly threw the problem to the two daughters, but his understanding of the two women, both of them must not admit defeat, and even he guessed that the two would get along with each other as equal wives first, and then turn to the second suggestion, but he didn't expect Cai Yan to do things so unexpectedly, and directly gave up the right to compete for the original match.

Cai Yan smiled slightly: "After all, you and Xianyi had a marriage contract, my sister was originally a later person, and you should be the one who should be you, but my sister couldn't think about it before, and I hope that you don't want to be surprised by your sister." ”

Don't look at Diao Xiu'er, who is usually smart and clever, and even a little fierce, but in the final analysis, she is just a simple woman with no bad intentions, Cai Yan's words suddenly made her feel ashamed and embarrassed, and secretly said that she was a child.

sat down next to Cai Yan at the moment, hugged her arm and said: "Sister Wenji, you should be bigger, I will be a flat wife, we will be a family in the future, I think my sister is more stable, I am young, just be a flat wife." ”

"It's okay that you don't learn it slowly, you're so beautiful, you're sure you can learn it well......"

Diao Xiu'er interrupted Cai Yan's words, shook her head and said: "I thought about it just now, it's better for you to be a wife, you won't bully me, I wanted to be a wife before because I was afraid that others would bully me, if it was you, I would be able to rest assured." ”

"But ......" Cai Yan still wanted to speak, but was blocked back by Diao Xiu'er's bunch of words.

In the end, the two decided that Cai Yan would be the wife and Diao Xiuer would be the youngest, but Cai Yan would never bully Diao Xiuer.

Yuan Xi looked at the two women dumbfounded, the matter that had been bothered for a month was actually solved so simply? It made him almost suspect that he was living in a dream.

The convoy stopped in front of the old mansion of Yuan Mansion, and as soon as Yuan Xi jumped out of the car, he saw a person standing in front of the gate, who else could it be if it wasn't his own eldest brother Yuan Tan?
