Although the Xue Mansion is more lenient than other families, it also has rules, and few distant cousins and cousins will disturb the head of the family like this, even if the old people who are in charge of the rules in the mansion don't say anything, other cousins and cousins will definitely say something shameless behind her back, maybe she wants to seduce the head of the family, or something like that.

Juanrong was not given the surname Xue because of the appreciation of Granny Hua like Mingyue, she did not have much special status in the Xue Mansion except for her outstanding appearance, and she was just an ordinary nominal "distant relative" fostered in the Xue Mansion.

If there is anything special about Juanrong, it is probably because she is fostered in the Xue Mansion because she is different from other cousins and cousins. It was not because of the poverty of the family that he took the initiative to seek foster care in Xue's mansion, but Xiaopang's father personally brought him back to Xue's mansion and did not arrange any special care, but the people around him would also take a look at Juan Ronggao.

Juan Rong lowered her head when she came in, unable to see her expression. The voice is very small, and I can't hear any emotion.

"Young Master An, thank you for the marriage that you put off for me this morning. "Sister Juanrong really came here for Tian Laosan's marriage.

"Although I don't know how Young Master An and Natian Laosan recognize each other, but Natian Laosan is indeed not a good match, I accompanied Mingyue's sister to Li Mansion to settle debts a few days ago, and I passed by the fat powder cave and saw a group of muddy prodigals, including this Tian Laosan. ”

Hearing Sister Juanrong say this, Xue An was relieved. Before, he was worried that he was so self-assertive to push away this family business for Sister Juanrong, if Sister Juanrong didn't understand Natian's third personality and only heard about the rich dowry, would he be resentful of himself, now it seems that his efforts have not been in vain.

"Sister Juanrong is polite, you can rest assured that there will be a suitable match for you in the future. If you have any difficulties, the Xue family will take care of them. Xue An just wanted to be polite along with this good atmosphere.

Unexpectedly, hearing this, Juan Rong raised her head suddenly, with an angry face. stepped forward, poured a glass of water for Xue An, and put it on the table fiercely:

"Young Master An, the Xue family is too big, you don't have to care about everything. I have my own difficulties, and although I thank you for taking care of them, I can't say more. If this matter affects the Xue Mansion, you can nod and marry me, you don't have to insult me like this!"

After saying that, Juan Rong turned around and walked out, slamming the door when she went out.

Xue An was stunned, completely unaware of what he said wrong.

But I saw that the chubby face who had been listening to it next to him was even more ugly, and his facial features were about to wrinkle together like bun folds.

"Hey, Chubby, do you know what's going on?"

"Don't ask..."Xue An mentioned it, and Xiaopang seemed to be even more painful, and he couldn't wait to hold his head and roll around on the ground a few times.

"What the hell is going on!"

"What you just said to Sister Juanrong, I also said to her......"

"Hiss~" Xue An seemed to hear something.

Listening to Xiaopang's detailed explanation, I understand that Juanrong is angry for no reason.

Before Chubby's father disappeared, he seemed to have foreseen something and made arrangements for many affairs in the family, including Chubby's marriage.

He once called Chubby and Juan Rong to his room at the same time, wanted to set up a marriage with Juan Rong for Xiao Pang, and asked Juan Rong if she was willing. Juan Rong hesitated and shyly agreed, but when she asked Xiaopang again, Xiaopang refused on the spot.

The girl is thin-skinned and is about to cry, although the little fat is stupid, she also knows how to comfort her, saying "You can rest assured, I will definitely find a good match for you in the future." If you have any difficulties, the Xue family will definitely solve them for you. ”

When Juan Rong heard this, the tears that were still rolling in her eyes flowed down at that time, and she ran out crying.

Chubby's father saw that Chubby was so resolute, so he didn't designate a marriage for Chubby, and only the three of them knew about it.

Thinking about it, Juan Rong took the initiative to come to Xue An today, because she heard that Xue An pushed away the generous Tian Laosan's marriage proposal for her, thinking that Xue An had a change of heart, so she mustered up the courage to thank her, and maybe she had the idea of picking up the marriage again.

One can imagine how many inner struggles a girl has to go through before she makes up her mind to find someone who has rejected her, but in the end, she hears the sentence "You will definitely get a good match in the future." ”

Although it wasn't Xue An's fault, he still didn't want to go. But at this point, it would be a harm to Sister Juanrong to explain anything, and it would be wrong to say more, so it is better to take more care of it in the future.

......

Ten days later.

Drifting Snow City has a lot more vitality than when Xue An first came. Most of the young men in the expeditionary force had already found enough blood jade to enter the city and returned to the city safely. Escaping death, coupled with something to gain outside, is mostly happy.

Of course, there are also many people whose bodies are in the wilderness, and their wives and children have no one to take care of them, and they are about to starve to death. Although the Drifting Snow City Lord has relied on the exchange of money at the city gate to collect a lot of blood jade these days, he does not dare to take over so many families with no productive capacity as an official at once.

The lord of the castle ordered that all the boys who had lost their fathers should be adopted and raised until they reached adulthood.

This is a sure-fire deal, raising these boys with a few blood jade dregs and miscellaneous grains, and in the future, they can be used as reserve soldiers of the City Lord's Mansion and Guards, and maintain the influence of the City Lord's family on Drifting Snow City. No matter how bad you are, you can also join the jade search team under the command of the city lord when you become an adult, and be some pawns who explore the way and wade into danger, and you can exchange a few more blood jade from the mouth of the fierce beast to death, and you will not suffer a loss.

But girls with low production capacity and difficulty in going out of the city to find blood jade are regarded as a burden. On the surface, it can't be said that it will be abandoned, but the city lord is unwilling to do this loss-making deal.

So a big family like the Xue family was dragged out again as a backstop.

"Granny Hua, this is the eleventh person who came to send her daughter into the house today, everyone said that the head of the family who died in the expeditionary force begged us for mercy, and as soon as we refused, we scolded us for having no conscience, and we were reluctant to leave at the gate of the house.

They don't know that our Xue Mansion is also having a hard time, where can we still afford to adopt some cousins. But other families will accept it, if our Xue Mansion doesn't accept it, I'm afraid that tomorrow in the Drifting Snow City will spread bad words about our Xue Mansion's inhumanity and injustice!"

Xue Mingyue spent the morning dealing with these orphans and widows who lost their heads of family in the expedition, but the door of Xue's mansion was still crowded with people. The cries of children and the chattering of adults were so noisy that the surrounding pedestrians avoided the entrance of Xue's mansion.

Granny Hua sighed, signaled that she knew, waved her hand in the direction of the mansion gate, and asked Mingyue to help her go out to have a look.

Trembling out of the door, the noisy sound immediately fell silent. Although Granny Xue Fuhua is old, she still has some reputation in Drifting Snow City, and everyone knows that this old man is majestic and old-fashioned but kind-hearted, and he doesn't dare to cry and play in front of her.

The little girls were still sobbing, and they couldn't stop for a while, so the mother quickly covered the little girl's mouth and dried the tears on the girl's face with her sleeve, for fear that the crying would ruin Granny Hua's mood and make her daughter unable to enter the Xue Mansion. The little girl's immature face was all red by the rough sleeves, but she only dared to hold back, did not dare to cry out in pain, and looked at Granny Hua with teary eyes.

"Alas......"

Granny Hua sighed again.

She has seen too many such scenes, but when she sees them, she is still distressed. Now most of the more than 100 "distant relatives" in the house are personally included in the house, and every time she thinks about it, she regrets her soft-heartedness.

All these women can do is wash, weave, and sew up. What they can do, they can do with blood jade. The divine grace in a piece of blood jade can replace the work of a skilled female worker for ten years, which is far less expensive and efficient than providing food for these female workers.

Because of the burden of this big family, the successive heads of the Xue Mansion had to try their best to trek through the mountains and dangers in the wilderness in search of more blood jade, and the first two generations of family heads were not considered to have a long life, which has something to do with it.

Granny Hua felt that she was sorry for the Xue family, and although she had been in charge of her life, most of her energy was put on these poor women who had been adopted. This is related to the fact that she herself is also an adoptive Ruxue Mansion, and she can't see a woman who is also miserable.

Now that the Xue family is in turmoil, she should not have adopted these girls for the Xue family. But looking at this little face full of tears, she couldn't make up her mind.

Finally, he shook his head, turned around and walked towards the mansion step by step.

I can't add any more burden to the little master.

When these mothers saw Granny Hua turn away, they left tears in their eyes, lowered their heads and hugged their daughters, and forced their voices to cry quietly. Granny Hua rejected them, so no one in the Xue Mansion would dare to agree to adopt these girls.

Granny Hua took three more steps, but finally stopped taking any more steps.

Clutched his crutches, turned his head to Mingyue next to him and said:

"Take it all in. ”
