Chapter 418: Marriage Arrangements Elsewhere
"Since my sister likes life in the countryside, then I wish my sister a comfortable life in the countryside and fields in the future, and a bumper harvest every year."
"I also wish you a good fight with a group of women in the deep palace compound." Wei Ruo replied.
"Then let's go and see who will regret it first in the future." Wei Qingwan said.
Cuihe answered: "Miss, how did you forget, you are going to marry in the capital in the future, and the eldest lady is going to stay in Taizhou Mansion, and it is unlikely that you and her will meet again." If you really want to say goodbye, she needs to kneel down and kowtow to you! ”
"I forgot." Wei Qingwan said, "Okay, give the gift to the eldest lady, we should go back." ”
"Yes. The slave and maid then gave the gift to the eldest lady. ”
Cui He threw the gift box in his hand at Wei Ruo's feet.
Then the master and servant turned away in a haughty manner.
Xiumei's eyes were quick, and she picked up something on the ground and threw it outside the hospital.
"Take it, no one is scarce of your things!"
Then he closed the courtyard door with his hands.
After closing the door, Xiumei still felt that her hands were dirty, and while slapping her hands, she muttered: "It's really annoying, she said she didn't like us, but she still ran to us!" ”
Xiumei said again: "Obviously, Miss doesn't want to marry Gaomen Compound at all, but she thinks that Miss can't marry Gaomen before she wants to marry Zhao Gongzi." ”
"She can think whatever she wants, don't care about her, don't let her affect our good mood, continue to look at the account books! The books look rejoicing! ”
As soon as he talked about looking at the account books, Wei Ruo's face immediately changed to a playful smile, completely losing the seriousness and coldness he had when he dealt with Wei Qingwan just now.
"Miss, you are happy when you look at the account books, you are happy when you look at the silver! This time I made so much money by selling coal cotton clothes, and there is still a surplus of silver consumed in addition to the relief, isn't it joyful? ”
"That's right, your young lady and I just like profitable account books, you can also help me look at it in a while, Sibao Zhai, lo-mei shop, grain shop, brewery, spice business, tea business...... There are still a bunch of accounts to look at. ”
"Don't, don't," Xiumei hurriedly waved her hand, "Miss, please spare me, I can't see that!" As soon as I looked at the accounts, my head hurt, and my head was dizzy and dizzy! Miss, you better let me do something else, I'm good at manual work, you can let me chop wood, just don't let me settle the account! ”
Wei Ruo smiled and reached out to poke Xiumei's forehead.
"You, you, you, after so long, you are still afraid of seeing the account books, I think the jackals, tigers and leopards are not scary without account books."
"That's right, I'm not afraid of jackals, tigers and leopards! As long as you have a good weapon in hand, I will kill the jackals, tigers and leopards, and give it to Miss as a snack! ”
"Okay, you don't look at the books, you go get the carriage. I'm going to make our carriage a little bit stronger, more functional, and a little more carryable. ”
The last time she was trapped in the snow made Wei Ruo want to upgrade their exclusive carriage, and now that the snow disaster was over, she had time to put that idea into action.
"Okay, that's fine, it's on me! Miss, you come up with an idea, I'll take care of it, and make sure to get it right! Xiumei patted her chest and agreed.

The next day, the Zhao brothers invited a matchmaker to come to the general's mansion to propose marriage.
The Zhao brothers' parents are deceased, so Zhao Hai, the eldest brother, will say goodbye on their behalf.
Wei Mingting invited the two brothers into the main hall, and was about to talk to the two of them when Wei Mingyong suddenly walked in.
"You go back first, my eldest girl won't kiss you."
Wei Mingyong directly issued an eviction order to the Zhao brothers.
Hearing this, Wei Mingting got up and asked Wei Mingyong: "Brother, what are you doing?" ”
"Third brother, you listen to me in this matter, and we will make other arrangements for Ruo'er's marriage."
Wei Mingting frowned: "Brother, Ruo'er is my daughter, and her marriage is up to me." ”
Wei Mingting's expression was majestic, and his momentum overpowered Wei Mingyong, who was his elder brother.
Seeing Wei Mingting, who had been fighting on the battlefield all year round, showed such an expression, Wei Mingyong had a moment of timidity.
But it was only for a moment, and he quickly refuted Wei Mingting's words confidently: "Third brother, this is not what I mean by second brother, but what my father and mother mean." ”
As he spoke, Wei Mingyong handed over a letter.
Wei Mingting's brow furrowed even more, and he took the letter from Wei Mingyong's hand.
After unfolding it, after reading the contents of the letter, Wei Mingting's face sank significantly.
Wei Mingyong walked over and patted Wei Mingting's shoulder, and said, "Third brother, my father's meaning letter has been written very clearly, and they will make other arrangements for the marriage of the eldest daughter of the uncle's concubine, so don't worry about it!" ”
Wei Mingting asked Wei Mingyong in a deep voice: "Did my brother write a letter to my father and mother?" ”
Wei Mingyong generously admitted: "It was indeed me who wrote to inform my father, a few days ago when the two brothers of the Zhao family came to the door, I guessed that the third brother might agree to come down, but I didn't expect that I really guessed it." ”
Wei Mingyong said again: "Third brother, it's your fault for this, you didn't inform your father and mother in advance that you wanted to set Ruo'er's marriage, which is suspected of being cut first and then played." ”
Wei Mingting looked at Wei Mingyong and couldn't refute his words, because he really had the intention of cutting first and then playing.
He guessed that the second elder who was far away in the capital might not agree to him marrying his daughter to a scholar with no background, so he did not inform him in advance.
He planned to wait until the engagement ceremony was completed before notifying the second elder, and even if the second elder was not satisfied with this family affair, he would oppose it because of the bad reputation of the Wei family girl.
Seeing that Wei Mingting was silent, Wei Mingyong turned around and gave an eviction order to the Zhao brothers again.
Zhao Hai and Zhao Xun looked embarrassed, and the two looked at each other.
Zhao Xun didn't want to give up, and asked Wei Mingting for instructions again: "Lord Wei, although Zhao is only from a position now, Zhao will definitely redouble his efforts after marrying Miss Wei to gain fame, and ask Lord Wei to give Zhao a chance!" ”
Wei Mingting looked at Zhao Xun, who had a sincere face, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Wei Mingyong.
"Third brother, this is what my father and mother mean, and the marriage of the children in the family is the final word of my father. Even if this son of the Zhao family is really a malleable talent, if you want to marry this family business, you have to ask your father and mother first! ”
Then Wei Mingyong was very impatient and ordered the people in the house to send the Zhao brothers away.
In such a situation, the Zhao brothers had no other way and were forced to leave the General's Mansion.
Wei Mingting asked Wei Mingyong: "Why did my brother do this?" ”
Wei Mingyong replied: "Third brother, although Ruo'er has a bad temperament, she has a beautiful appearance and a beautiful appearance, even if she can't marry into the royal family like Wanwan, she still has the opportunity to talk about good family affairs in the capital." ”
