Tang Xiaowen didn't care when she saw that it was a little girl, and motioned for her to let the grapes bring her a sample, "Little lady, if you like our family's dim sum, you can often come and buy it." ”

"My sister already has a marriage contract."

"How good can your engagement be?" Yuan Pearl said, "My brother is the next head of the imperial merchant Yuan's family, and the people who come and go are nobles, and the dim sum shop you open in this small and broken place, my brother can open a big dim sum shop for you in the capital, and you can use three floors." ”

"I'm going to the capital to open a shop, I can go by myself, and I don't need others to help me open it." Tang Xiaowen said, "Where is the little lady, my lord, it's not good to say these words outside." ”

"Why don't you know what's wrong?" Yuan Pearl said, "The local Zhou Yuan is my uncle, think about it yourself." ”

"I fancy you to give you face, you don't want to be embarrassed."

Tang Xiaowen thought that she was talking nonsense from a child's family, but when she heard that she was Zhou Yuanwai's niece, she was stunned, Zhou Yuanwai was rich and powerful in Jiangyang, even if a child said it, she couldn't take it lightly.

When Gan Zhili came, she said to him, "What should I do? She wasn't telling the truth. ”

"I'm sorry, I don't care what kind of Zhou member she is, what kind of imperial businessman, if she dares to force me to be a concubine, I will hang myself on the city gate tower immediately." Tang Xiaowen said angrily.

"Don't say that." Gan Zhili said, "That's it. ”

"You are your father's beloved daughter, cherish it, no matter what happens, don't think about seeking death, you have to think about how sad they should be if you die." Gan Zhili said.

Tang Xiaowen glared at him, "Then you mean that you don't care if I go to be a concubine for others?" ”

"That's not what I meant." Gan Zhili said that he always made Tang Xiaowen angry, "Don't be angry, Qilang is filial piety now, and he has always been good friends with the eldest young master of the Zhou family, so he will never get to that point." ”

"Even if it really gets to that point, I'll take you away, and the two of us will be far away, so people can't find it."

"That's pretty much it." Tang Xiaowen said, "It is said that it is a child, I should not take it seriously, but Zhou Yuan's external forces are so big, I don't feel at ease if I don't ask clearly." ”

"Hmm." Gan Zhili nodded and said, "I'll go to Fucheng to find Qilang." ”

"What about Eleven?" Tang Xiaowen asked.

"I'll go back and tell my dad to pick him up."

"Don't you know?" Tang Xiaowen said, "What if my uncle and aunt think that I caused such a trouble by showing up, and are unwilling to let me open a shop again?" ”

"How so? My mother used to run a vegetable shop. Gan Zhili said, "Then if you are afraid, I will not go, and when the time comes, you ask the coachman you know well to pick it up, and you will go with you." ”

Tang Xiaowen nodded.

Gan Zhili hurriedly walked towards the dock, and at this time he didn't know if there was a boat.

Gan Xiaotang was pleasantly surprised to see Tang Xiaowen when he came out of the academy, "Why is Sister Xiaowen here today." ”

"Gorou will go to Fucheng temporarily, and I will pick you up for him." Tang Xiaowen said.

Gan Xiaotang happily hugged her arm, and the two of them talked and laughed back, the coachman came for the first time, and naturally came back as it was, without passing through the gazebo.

Zhou Shiyun sat in the pavilion and painted, and looked at the pillow inkstone for a while, "The little lady hasn't come over at this time, do you want me to take a look?" ”

"No need." Zhou Shiyun said, "I'll go back after painting." "She's probably not coming.

Pillow Yan is strange, isn't the young master coming every day for the little lady of the Gan family? No, you can't draw anywhere.

After listening to Gan Zhili, Zhou Xingfeng said, "My cousin is pampered by the family and is quite lawless, please rest assured, what she said will never come true." ”

"She probably likes your pastries and wants to eat them when she returns to the capital, so she said such rude words."

"If she likes it, I can give it to her, the capital is farther away, if Qilang becomes an official in Beijing in the future, maybe our family will go over to open a shop, and the future may be now." Gan Zhili said, "It's just that the little lady is really domineering, and Xiaowen is a little frightened, so she came to ask for peace of mind." ”

"It's my cousin's fault." Zhou Xingfeng smiled and said, "Everyone also sees how my Zhou family behaves, and it is not like a person who runs rampant in the township." ”

Zhou Xingfeng followed Gan Zhili back to Jiangyang, he went straight home, Yuan Xinqiao didn't expect him to come back, he was very surprised, he was busy asking people to prepare dinner, and asked people to call the master back.

"Where's the pearl?" Zhou Xingfeng asked.

"I went out to play during the day, and when I came back, I fell asleep, and I haven't woken up yet." Yuan Xinqiao said that it was strange how he brought up pearls, the two were a little far apart in age, and they couldn't play together.

"Mother doesn't know yet, Pearl has done a big thing today." Zhou Xingfeng said, "She ran to the candy and said that she wanted Tang Xiaowen to be her eldest cousin's concubine." ”

Yuan Xinqiao was stunned, "Where did she hear such words?" Why are you still worried about her brother's concubine? ”

"The owner of the candy shop is Qilang's fifth sister-in-law who has not yet passed the door, and I heard that Pearl said that she was Zhou Yuanwai's niece, so she was worried about it, she was a little scared, and she specially asked Qilang to ask me." Zhou Xingfeng said, "Let me be so bored." ”

"The jokes that this kid said are not true, they also made a fuss, and went to Fucheng to disturb your study." Yuan Xinqiao said.

"If it weren't for my relationship, Pearl would have to take away other shopkeepers, what are you going to do?" Zhou Xingfeng asked.

Yuan Xinqiao said, "It's not a big deal, besides, being a concubine for your eldest cousin is not a burying her, what kind of woman has your eldest cousin never seen in the capital?" ”

"If my mother thinks so, I'll try it or don't take the test." Zhou Xingfeng said with a cold face, "I haven't been an official yet, my mother is bullying men and women here, this is not waiting for me to be a black-hearted official who does not distinguish between right and wrong." ”

"The whole family confiscated the wrong place, and the accumulation of the ancestors was cleared up once it was cleared, and this official deserved to affect the whole family."

"It's that serious." Yuan Xinqiao said, "Your mother can't bear to step on an ant to death on weekdays, how could she do such a thing." ”

"Pearl is still young, she jokes."

"She is young, and the people who teach her are not small, if it weren't for everyone around her to act like this, how could she know coercion and temptation at a young age?" Zhou Xingfeng said, "When he arrives in the capital one day, I don't live at my uncle's house, and I don't think his family can act like this for long." ”

"What is your uncle doing?" Yuan Xinqiao said that she repeatedly assured that Yuan Pearl was just a child's heart, not true, and would not bully men and women.

"Anyway, you can take care of this matter yourself." Zhou Xingfeng said, "If you let your father know." ”

"I see." Yuan Xinqiao said, "I'll send her back to Beijing in two days." ”

"I married into your Zhou family, even if I am separated from my parents and brothers, you don't want to have a niece to accompany me." Yuan Xinqiao said.

She and her family in the capital only communicate through letters and limouses, and they haven't seen each other for many years, so they finally let Pearl come, but the small one didn't appreciate it, and the big one simply drove her away.

"Mother, I know you want to go back to the capital to visit your maternal uncle." Zhou Xingfeng said, "Otherwise, I'll accompany you to send the pearls back." ”
