Chapter 216: Always Work Hard

When Long Xing heard this request, the smile on his face faded a lot.

"Lan girl, I just want you to know that when you and Liang Wei come together in the future, you will have to face many difficulties that you can't imagine." Long Xing sighed, "The difference in identity is like a moat. These noble names, the relationships between various families, are all things they have to learn from a young age. ”

"These are just basics, and there are some things to be treated, gifts to buy banquets, and to deal with the affairs of the back house...... There are so many of them. What piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are just for those noble ladies to pass the time in their spare time, and this is what they really want to learn. ”

"I know you're smart, and it's not hard to learn slowly."

"But is this kind of life really what you want?"

Xu Lan sighed.

"Brother Long, I don't know ......" Xu Lan said blankly, "I thought that Brother Liang was a rich boy in the state, who knew that his family was so scary." ”

"I don't know any rules, I don't know any etiquette, and it makes people feel scared when they think about it."

"But I can't let go of Brother Liang just because I'm afraid of these things."

Long Xing looked at her deeply.

Xu Lan was a little depressed, but her eyes looked very firm.

"Okay." Long Xing shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "Although I am not very optimistic about you, but after all, we are all friends, I will help you find a noble family tree, and when you are familiar with it, I will ask a etiquette grandmother to teach you." ”

"Thank you, Second Brother Long!" Xu Lan said, "Make something delicious for you." ”

"Haha, okay." Long Xing smiled, "That guy Liang Wei is not here, I can eat his share." ”

After talking with Long Xing, Xu Lan's mood seemed to be better.

In the next few days, Xu Lan lived as usual.

She kept herself as busy as possible, so as not to think of Liang Wei as soon as she was free.

Zhang and Xu Dahai discussed whether to change to Xu Dagui's original house to live.

"I don't think so." Xu Lan suggested, "Although the place was bought, I see that the uncle often comes to the village, and he may not think what he will think when he sees our family living in the past." ”

Zhang and Xu Dawa also said they didn't want to live in the past.

"Although our family is much smaller, we made every brick and tile by hand, and I am reluctant." "But now that the family is rich, it's time to renovate it." ”

"Okay." Xu Dahai glanced at Xu Lan, "Even if it's not as rich as a rich family, at least it can't be too shabby." ”

Xu Lan smiled: "Dad, mother, where did you all think of?" No matter how much our family builds a house, it can't compare to other people's century-old families, so you don't have to worry too much, just do what you want. ”

Zhang and Xu Dahai agreed on the surface, but in fact, they secretly held back their strength. Although the family is not rich, at least it must be clean and spacious, and people can't come to see it next year, it's dark and small, isn't it a shame for Lan'er?

In the winter, there was no work in the fields, so they took out some copper coins and hired people from the village to repair the house.

The outer walls were all heightened and thickened, and the gate was rebuilt by Carpenter Chen and painted with vermilion paint.

The existing house was repainted and the uneven areas were repaired. The beams of the eaves were painted black, and the roof was replaced with straw and new green tiles. After finishing these, Xu Dahai and Zhang's total, and rebuilt two new houses next to the original house.

One is for Xu Dawa and one is for Xu Lan.

In the future, Xu Lan will get married, and these two rooms will also be convenient for Xu Dawa to marry his wife.

For a time, there were often people coming in and out of the second room of the Xu family, which was very lively.

When everyone saw their family's big move, they were all talking in private, saying that it was because of Xu Lan, and the Xu family finally had money after being poor for so many years. Otherwise, everyone is bitter this year, why do they still have spare money to repair the house.

Xu Dawa is enthusiastic to help every day, but Xu Lan is miserable.

She had something on her mind, and when she thought about it, all she could rely on was space and medical skills.

The things in the space have to be planned slowly, and they don't know when they will disappear. Medical skills don't, as long as she learns it and keeps it in her head, then her whole life will be her own.

Xu Lan needed a quieter place to learn medical skills.

But there is no way to hide in the space every day.

In desperation, she went to study in Chen's original house.

Chen patted her ass and went to live a good life in the county town, but she couldn't look at the things in the house at all, and she didn't take anything away except for a few clothes.

Xu Lan brought her usual bedding over, just enough to accommodate people.

There is a small separate courtyard here, and the entrance and exit doors are facing the window. Xu Lan placed the desk by the window and sat there every day, but she could just see if anyone had entered.

This made her feel comfortable to take out the medical skills in the space and learn.

With goals and motivation, Xu Lan's learning progress is advancing rapidly. Not only did she learn more recipes, but she also memorized many healing techniques, but the people in the village had some colds at most, but there was no room for her to show her skills.

On this day, Xu Lan was reading a book, but saw someone walking around.

She quickly put the book back into the space and went to open the door.

Outside, Xu Dagui and a slightly familiar man were standing.

As soon as the man saw Xu Lan, he said, "You live here alone as a girl, what kind of body do you become!" I'm not afraid of being killed by gangsters in the middle of the night. ”

Xu Lan frowned, and suddenly remembered where she had seen this person.

She went digging earthworms that day, and it was this man who showed her the way. However, he was wearing the clothes of officers and soldiers that day, and today he changed into civilian clothes, and Xu Lan did not recognize him for a while.

"This lord, this is my house, why can't I live in it?" Xu Lan originally had a good impression of him, but as soon as he opened his mouth just now, splitting his head and covering his face was a lesson, which made Xu Lan a little disgusted.

"You girl, Lord Zhao kindly reminded you, how did you speak?" Xu Dagui said with a smile on the side, "Why don't you invite Lord Zhao to come in and sit?" ”

"Lord Zhao?" Xu Lan's heart moved, "Wouldn't this be the Lord of the Hundred Households you said?" ”

"Exactly!" Xu Dagui said proudly, "Lord Zhao is young and promising, a talent, I don't dislike you as just an ordinary peasant girl, and I want to marry you, which is your blessing." When he saw that you were not at home just now, he came to see you, and did not hurry up to invite him in. ”

Xu Lan's face changed suddenly.

What's going on?

Why didn't my father tell Xu Dagui that he was already engaged?

Xu Lan's reaction did not escape the eyes of the person opposite, and that Lord Zhao snorted coldly: "What? Don't you still look down on me? ”

Xu Dagui immediately said: "No, no, this girl is shy!" Ignore her and go in and thank you. With that, he was going to push Xu Lan away and invite that Lord Zhao into the house.
