Chapter 499: I can help my second brother find a beauty
In the following days, Wei Ruo and Wei Jin also conducted on-the-spot surveys of the cotton fields purchased by Wei Ruo, and arranged various planting and management work of the cotton fields.
During this period, the two also went to the ground together several times.
If Wei has the need to go to the field, the crops she planted herself can increase her experience points when they grow into harvests, so she will definitely go to the ground herself when she gets a good opportunity.
Regarding Wei Ruo's behavior that was not in line with ordinary ladies, Wei Jin not only didn't say anything, but also tossed with her.
Wei Jin also put on coarse cloth clothes again, picked up a hoe, and dressed as a farmer, but his skin color and appearance were still too far from that of a farmer.
Wei Ruo was busy for a while, and when he turned his head and saw that Wei Jinyi's cheeks were covered with mud, he looked a little funny, and he couldn't help laughing.
Wei Jin also looked at her and smiled at herself, knowing that her appearance was probably a little strange, but he didn't care if his image was damaged.
"Second brother, why didn't I find out before, you still have the potential to be a coolie, this hoe is better than Zhao Ergou." Wei Ruo commented.
"Who is Zhao Ergou?" Wei Jin also asked.
"A little brother in Mojiazha has never fought with Brother Xiaoyong in the past, and every time he is beaten by Brother Xiaoyong, his nose is blue and his face is swollen."
"Why are they fighting?"
"At first, it was because Zhao Ergou and Xiaopang at the village mouth said bad things about me together, and Brother Xiaoyong was upset for me, but later Zhao Ergou was not convinced, and he had to find Brother Xiaoyong to fight each other."
"Sounds interesting."
"Yes, and Meimei, she and Brother Xiaoyong quarreled as soon as they met, they are a pair of living treasures."
Speaking of this, Wei Ruo suddenly put down the hoe in his hand and remembered something.
"Second brother, I feel like it's time for me to tell Meimei about my family."
"Who do you want to put her to?"
"Of course it's Brother Xiao Yong, I know Brother Xiao Yong likes her, but Mei Mei doesn't seem to know." Wei Ruodao.
Some things are clear to onlookers, and Wei Ruo has been watching Xiumei and Xu Zhengyong fight and see some clues.
After a pause, Wei Ruo added: "But it also depends on Mei Mei's own thoughts, if she doesn't want to, forget it." A woman doesn't have to get married, as long as she is happy, she can live happily without marrying. It's also because this person is Brother Xiaoyong, so I think I can give it a try, and I won't arrange the people next to me. ”
Wei Ruo was also afraid that Xiumei would be interested in Xu Zhengyong in her heart, but because Xiumei wanted to take care of her and accompany her, the marriage between the two was delayed.
"So at that time, you would rather go outside to find someone who is dying to marry than marry Xu Zhengyong?" Wei Jin also asked.
A long time ago, Wei Jin also knew that if Wei Ruo was just to break away from the Wei family, marrying Xu Zhengyong would be a good choice, especially when Xu Zhengyong already had an official position at that time.
"That's natural, I can't even bother Brother Xiaoyong with not being able to marry a wife in the future. Even if he doesn't have a love for Meimei, it's not okay. Wei Ruo admitted.
She is a fake marriage, if she occupies the position of Brother Xiaoyong's wife, it will hurt Brother Xiaoyong to be unable to marry a wife and have children normally.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Ruo said to Wei Jin: "It's not me who delays you now, it's you who chose it yourself!" ”
"Hmm."
"But if you really want to have children, it's okay, I'll help you find a beauty, but you have to be wronged by this beauty to be a side concubine or concubine." Wei Ruo added.
Wei Ruo has this idea because there is always a father-in-law around him who is staring at him recently, looking forward to leaving him a future for the "seriously ill" King Rui.
"Don't talk nonsense." Wei Jinyi's expression became serious.
"How can it be nonsense, I know that men think like this. Not bad, after all, you are the only surviving bloodline of your grandfather's family. ”
Wei Ruo himself didn't have any ideas about heirs or anything, but he also knew that the heir family was still very important in the minds of the men in this world.
Even the second brother may not be exempt from vulgarity.
And they don't know how long they will play this fake couple, in case he really has this need, she, who is the nominal wife, should also help him arrange the arrangement.
"It's getting late, it's time to go back." Wei Jin also suddenly diverted the topic.
Wei Ruo smiled, realizing that her second brother was a little shy on this topic, so she didn't continue.
Hey, the second brother is too, he is so unenlightened.
I heard that the prince in the palace, when he was fifteen or sixteen years old, there were palace people who specially taught this matter.
Chu Lan, the male protagonist in the original book, is an exception, although there are many women in his backyard, he has not actually had a relationship with any of them, and he spoils her alone after Wei Qingwan enters his backyard.
And the reason is that when Chu Lan was thirteen years old, he was drugged by a palace maid who tried to carp and jump over the dragon gate, and he had an accident, which injured him, and he almost couldn't be humane in the future, so he was full of vigilance about women and bedding.
I don't know why her second brother is like this, so I will find an opportunity to inquire with Lin Fang and them another day.

In addition to matters related to cotton fields, Wei Ruo and Wei Jin also went to a nearby coal mine together.
At that time, private mining was allowed, but a higher mining tax was charged, which was 30 cents, that is, 1/10.
However, even if the imperial court allows it, it is still difficult for ordinary people to obtain the right to open mines and set up kilns.
Fortunately, Wei Ruo's current identity is not an ordinary person, and the identities of King Rui and Princess Rui have become very useful at this time.
So with the help of Wei Jinyi, Wei Ruo didn't have too much trouble to reach an agreement with the local government and purchased a nearby coal mine.
This made Wei Ruo very happy, and once again felt the benefits of Princess Rui's identity.
Coal is used in a wide range of applications, and in addition to heating, it also plays an extremely important role in smelting.
And because of the coming winter, coal will become very scarce. Although coal is not as good as charcoal fired from wood, it is better than being frozen.
On the way back, seeing Wei Ruo's happy appearance because Rui Wangfu won the coal mine, Wei Jinyi's mood couldn't help but lighten up.
If she can really be an idle prince, it is also a good choice to let her live the life she wants so carefree.
And he is willing to stay by her side in such an awkward identity until one day she has a better choice.
"Second brother, thank you." Wei Ruo suddenly turned around and said to Wei Jin, who was looking at him in a trance.
