Ji Nuan's family arrived relatively early, handed over the carriage to the Luo family, and Gu Shuzhen took Ji Lianqiu and her daughter to the Luo family's living room.

When he was at home, Ji Nuan taught his eldest brother how to salute, Ji Lianqiu has gained a lot of knowledge over the past year, his vision and mind have been broadened, and he is no longer a short-sighted peasant boy in Crescent Valley.

Ji Ruinian went to the men's side, Mrs. Luo personally greeted the mother and son of the Ji family, praised Ji Nuan's beautiful dress today, praised Ji Lianqiu's spirit, and helped them introduce other guests, focusing on introducing a horse farm owner's wife surnamed Dong and a young lady she brought.

"My sister is so beautiful." Ji Nuan's smile was particularly sincere, and her tone was particularly sincere.

Miss Dong had a three-point smile on her face, her expression was indifferent, and she got up and gave a shallow salute: "Thank you Miss Ji for your praise." ”

This is probably everyone's beautiful style, Ji Nuan bent down to return the salute, turned around to chat with Luo Runan, Ji Lianqiu went to the male guest after meeting the elders, Gu Shuzhen accompanied those wives to chat, Luo Runan pulled Ji Nuan into the yard: "What do you think of that Miss Dong?" It's good-looking, my mother often praises her for her good temper, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and embroidery, she has these ...... I don't have any of them. ”

"Why do you want to compare with others, we don't live for others to see, the most important thing is to be happy, as for that Miss Dong, it depends on her and my brother's attitude, I have no opinion." It's not her who wants to marry a daughter-in-law, to be honest, Ji Nuan doesn't like that Miss Dong very much, it's like she is wearing a mask, she is depressed by herself, and others are tired to watch.

After eating at Luo's house, Gu Shuzhen was very satisfied with Miss Dong, and couldn't stop praising her for being knowledgeable and dignified.

"I can see that I'm about to fall out of favor." Ji Nuan leaned against her mother, looking pitiful.

"You are my daughter, naturally it is different, but you must know that when your brother marries his daughter-in-law, I can't just love you alone. When other people's daughters are at home, they are also raised by thousands of pets, we can't snub others, we have to treat your sister-in-law well, you can't be like a mother...... "It's like an invisible person in my mother-in-law's house, and my in-laws have never regarded themselves as family."

Why does this still evoke a sad past, Ji Nuan arched into his mother's arms and coquettishly: "I won't be jealous, I will be good to my sister-in-law with you, don't be sad!" ”

Mrs. Dong's family held a banquet after two ends and invited the Ji family to attend, Gu Shuzhen asked her daughter if she should also hold a banquet to invite the other party, Ji Nuan knew that her mother was not good at socializing, if she held a banquet, she would have to Zhang Luo by herself, should the family also invite a housekeeper!

The day of the banquet held by the Ji family was set on the twelfth day of the first month, and after participating in the Dong family banquet, Gu Shuzhen and Ji Ruinian became more and more satisfied with the young lady of the Dong family, but Ji Nuan found that the eldest brother was not interested, so it was not good, Ji Nuan found the eldest brother and was ready to talk to him.

"Big brother, marriage is related to a lifetime of happiness, if you like that Miss Dong, let's continue to do it, don't force it if you don't like it!"

"Nuan Nuan I know that I should be content to meet Miss Dong in my own capacity, and my father and mother also like her very much, but I just feel that I am not a person all the way with her, and I can't stand together and have nothing to say about poetry and songs, which is very awkward." On the day she went to Dong's house to attend the banquet, Ji Lianqiu not only saw Miss Dong's ability to control her subordinates, but also saw that she paid attention to the rules; When Miss Dong was doing things, she was surrounded by a large group of people, and those subordinates didn't dare to raise their heads when they saw her.

To be honest, seeing such a scene, Ji Lianqiu has already retreated, their family is very kind to their subordinates, if my sister goes out to buy snacks, she will call the little maid in the yard to eat with the maid, and sometimes fight with the two Nangong girls. The Ji family has no family rules, if there is one, that is, the subordinates must do their own thing, and they must not divulge the secrets of the Ji family, and the rest are gone.

If she marries Miss Dong, she must not be used to the attitude of the family towards her subordinates, as the eldest daughter-in-law, she will ask for rectification, and even ask her sister to follow the rules, Ji Lianqiu is reluctant to let her sister be restrained, and she doesn't want the family to be panicked.

Ji Nuan circled around the eldest brother: "Big brother, don't think about it so much, just say whether you like Miss Dong or not, you don't have to care about other people's eyes and opinions, just tell me what you really think, and I'll tell my father." ”

With the support of his sister, Ji Lianqiu's heart suddenly became steady: "I went to tell my father and mother that our family's life has just passed, and I don't want to think about personal matters in the past two years, I just want to live my life quickly." "If you want to say that you kissed Ji Lianqiu, you don't know that if you want to marry a daughter-in-law, you can't get 320,000 yuan of silver at all, and the seven brothers in the family will have to get more than 200,000 taels, and it is limited to marry your daughter-in-law and help your brothers, anyway, you are not too old, and it is not too late to save money in the family for a few years.

Afraid that his brother would be trained, Ji Nuan insisted on going to see his father and mother with his eldest brother, Gu Shuzhen didn't expect her son to refuse this family business, Ji Nuan hugged her mother's arm: "Mother, getting married is a lifelong thing, and the eldest brother must be willing, we can't just look at each other's family background, but also see if they are compatible, you say yes!" ”

Gu Shuzhen asked her son, "Have you really thought about it?" ”

Ji Lianqiu nodded: "Mother, sixteen years old is not too big, right, can I talk about my family affairs in two years." "Life at home has just improved, and Ji Lianqiu is the boss again, he really doesn't want to talk about marriage at this time.

"If Mrs. Luo asks, how will my mother reply?"

Ji Nuan thought for a long time: "On the day of our family's banquet, I took my eldest brother out, and a smart person like Mrs. Luo will understand what we mean when she sees that the eldest brother is not at home, and this matter is not clear, and it is not rude." ”

It seems that this can only be done, Ji Lianyou learned that his eldest brother and sister were going out, and he also wanted to follow the beautiful name to protect the safety of the two, in fact, he had something to say to his sister, it was about Nangong Linyou.

The brothers and sisters didn't go far, they went to see the villa outside the city, the villa was found by Uncle Liang, there are large areas of land in it, including a Zhuangzi and a pond and an orchard, Ji Nuan likes places with mountains and waters, and he bought it as soon as he made the final decision!

"This mountain villa costs 40,000 taels of silver, there are more than 2,300 acres of dry land, an orchard, and two ponds. Liang Bo introduced it in detail, and they also have two villas in the General's Mansion, both of which he takes care of.

Ji Nuan asked Uncle Liang to help call the seller, and the two finally reached an agreement for 39,000 taels, Ji Nuan took the title deed and said to the eldest brother and the sixth brother: "We have land again, and we can grow soybeans again." ”

What Ji Lianqiu and Ji Lianyou were thinking about was where did this girl get the silver? There are only more than 10,000 taels of silver in the family, and the rest are given by her master?
