Xue'er came back to her senses and asked Aunt Lu, "What's the matter with Auntie?" ”

"County Lord, that Wu Ji is still good, she is very smart, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I have already tried it, she has no rejection of the county lord's arrangement, she just wants to see the county lord first."

Xue'er raised her eyebrows: "She made it clear in front of her aunt that she was willing?" ”

Aunt Lu nodded: "Yes." It's just that she was embarrassed to come to see the county lord and hinted that I came to talk to the county lord! ”

"Well, then my aunt told her first, if she is willing to serve her father, she will first arrange her to be a personal maid by her father's side, and as for whether her father can accept her, it depends on herself.

If she is really accepted by her father, I can promise that in the future, all the children she will give birth to will be recorded in her mother's name as the sons-in-law and daughter-in-law of the county government. ”

Xue'er really doesn't care about the family business of the county government, anyway, she has already arranged it for the two younger brothers, and the assets she left them are enough for the two younger brothers to squander their lives.

The Dong family has always had no concubines and concubines, even in order to make herself feel at ease, Xue'er can only do this.

She herself is a little woman in the mood for love, and she can understand Wu Ji's feelings.

In this privileged society, she can't change the fate of others, but she can't squander other people's lives unscrupulously.

"Isn't that a good idea?" Aunt Lu disagreed.

"Auntie, let's be honest with you, the family property I left to my two younger brothers is enough, and I don't care if there are other younger brothers and sisters to share the property of the county government.

Now it's just a name, I still give it, and it can be regarded as a kind of compensation for Wu Ji!

As for Ze'er's position as the son of the world, with me, the county lord's sister, I can't take it away from anyone, why shouldn't we be more generous? ”

Aunt Lu still wanted to persuade her, but Xue'er smiled and waved her hand, "Aunt Lu, you don't have to persuade me anymore."

The Dong family has a family rule of not accepting concubines, even if I don't do this, my grandfather doesn't want his grandson to bear the status of a concubine.

The Dong family has been based in Changhai County for only a few decades, and there is no connection with the original family, and the Dong family does not have many heirs, which is why the grandfather did not hesitate to promise to give Chengde the title of son-in-law.

Auntie, if my father has another child, even if I don't give this promise, my grandfather will try to give it, so why don't I give Wu Ji a hope? ”

What Xue'er didn't say was that when she got married in the future, she wanted to know everything about the county government, and hoped that her subordinates would always be towards her and help her two younger brothers, which was not a long-term strategy after all.

Wu Ji was chosen by her, if Wu Ji can stand on her side, then she must give the other party hope and benefits, only the combination of interests is the safest.

Before her two younger brothers reach adulthood, she has to pave the way for them, and as for what the future holds, it is not something she can predict in advance.

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Aunt Lu had no choice but to stop persuading: "No, then I will arrange for Wu Ji to go to the county magistrate to serve in the next few days!" ”

Xue'er nodded: "Well, I won't force this matter, I won't force Wu Ji to accept my father for my own interests, nor will I force my father to accept Wu Ji, the result depends on the two of them themselves!" ”

"No." Aunt Lu saw that Xue'er had nothing else to explain, so she bowed down and retreated.

After arranging Wu Ji's affairs, the rest is Yue's affairs.

Xue'er didn't know what Dong Changhe and Yue's meant, so she could only wait and see for the time being.

Although it is filial piety, there are a lot of things at the end of the year, one is solved, and another is waiting.

Finally, at the end of the lunar month, Xue'er was busy with the affairs of the two mansions.

In the twenty-third year of the lunar month, Xue'er sisters and brothers went to the county mansion to have an evening meal with Dong Changhe.

In front of Xue'er's sisters and brothers were vegetarian dumplings, and Dong Changhe was filled with meat.

The family sat together for the holiday, but it was already a matter of things, and there were many people at the table, but there was one more Dong Chengde and one less Yun.

Since the death of the Yun family, the two brothers Dong Chengze and Dong Chengqing, they have rarely laughed as before.

is also face-saving with Dong Chengde, and occasionally says a few words, and there is no more.

I still remember that Xuanyuan Mo was also there during the Chinese New Year last year, when the two brothers talked and laughed around the Yun family and Dong Changhe.

And this year, the two brothers only bowed their heads to eat, and their faces seemed to have lost their innocence and childishness.

Dong Changhe had always been expressionless, looking up at the three sisters and brothers from time to time, and Wu Ji and Sun were standing there behind him waiting for him to eat.

Xue'er can see that Wu Ji is sincerely serving Dong Changhe, but Sun has the intention to compare with Wu Ji, after all, she is not as smart as Wu Ji, and she is not as intimate as Wu Ji.

Xue'er knew that Sun was not willing to stand and serve people, but because of the rules set by Xue'er, she had to do it.

I don't see that she always peeks at Xue'er, and her eyes are full of unwillingness and resentment.

Seeing Sun's eyes, Xue'er felt a lot happier for some reason, maybe in her heart, she was always haunted by Yun's death!

finally finished the meal, Dong Changhe said to Xue'er: "Xue'er, come to my father's study, I have something to tell you." ”

Wu Ji and the Sun family wanted to follow, so he waved his hand and said, "You go back to your room first, and you don't need to serve for the time being." ”

In the study, the father and daughter sat opposite each other, and they were relatively silent for a long time.

In the end, Dong Changhe didn't hold on and said, "Xue'er, Wu Ji was deliberately sent by you to serve your father?" ”

"Well, I asked His Royal Highness King Youwang for Wu Ji, but he didn't know that I gave it to my father." Cher readily admitted.

"Why? You have to know what others will say about you if they know about it! Isn't this nonsense? Dong Changhe was a little annoyed and angry, and scolded in a low voice.

"I just arranged for her to serve her father, as for how to arrange Wu Ji, it's not up to me to control!" Xue'er didn't think so, and replied with a smile.

"You, you, didn't you think about your mother when you did this?" Dong Changhe didn't know whether he should be happy or sad, so he slowed down his tone a little helplessly.

"Father had the Sun family when his mother was alive, and now there is not much more Wu Ji, and there is no less than her, as long as the father wants whatever he wants in the county mansion, after all, those little ladies outside the house have their own purposes to please their father, I don't want to help you clean up the mess every time."

Dong Changhe's plaque said that Xue'er couldn't erase her face, and her face was a little red.

After a pause, she continued: "Ze'er and Qing'er are my own brothers, and I want to plan for them."

If they know about it, do you want them to learn from their father in the future? It's not that you don't know how Grandpa ruined the Wanguan family's wealth! ”
