Xi's is in the east of Xiangyang City, at the foot of Dahong Mountain, a huge manor, facing the Xiangjiang River, with no end in sight of 10,000 acres of fertile land.

At this time, it is the height of summer, the traffic is strange, the fields are neat, the waterwheels are arranged by the riverside, the water is being diverted for irrigation, the rice is blooming small yellow flowers, looking at it, it is like a paradise.

Liu Qi rode his horse and walked along, and said angrily: "I heard that most of Xi's industry is taken care of by Miss Xi, could it be that she is also in charge of this farmland?" ”

Xi's steward looked proud, nodded and smiled: "What the general said is true, if the young lady is not a daughter, I am afraid that her ability will exceed that of the third son, and now the affairs of the upper and lower parts of the village seem to be taken care of by the second son, but all the decision-making and planning are decided by the young lady and the master, and the master is on Wudang Mountain for several months a year, in fact, it ......"

The third son is Xi Zhen, who has now been sent to Jiangling to take office, and several other Xi children are taking care of their own industries, reading and writing, and waiting for the opportunity.

Liu Qi said with a smile: "It seems that the second lady is not only outstanding in learning, but also can take charge of herself, what a strange woman!" ”

The housekeeper smiled, the pride was self-evident, such a large piece of industry was well organized, not to mention that it was a man, even the old master might not be able to do it, and the young lady was in control of everything behind her back.

If he can marry Liu Qi in front of him again, Xi's industry will expand again, and in the future, it will not be the Kuai family, even the Huang family will not be able to compare.

Liu Qi knew that he was visiting, and he must not be able to hide Xi's eyes and ears, and he did not hide it, so he handed over the name card and entered the village, but he was greeted by a woman in plain clothes, which was unexpected.

Under the two tall weeping willows, like a bamboo curtain upside down, the woman was dressed in a light-colored goose yellow dress, green silk obliquely, slender figure, as if integrated with the village garden, neither stunning nor vulgar.

Everything is like this midsummer scenery, among the willow green flowers and red, a small yellow flower is lined out, and the elegance is just right.

"The folk girl Xi Yuan saw the general, never greeted from afar, and hoped to forgive her sins."

"I don't want to be greeted by Miss herself, so I took the liberty to disturb it!"

Liu Qi's gaze swept over, listening to the crisp and pleasant sound, just as a cool breeze hit, and he was comfortable.

"The father is not in the village, the eldest brother is in Changsha, the second brother went to Jiangdong, and the little girl had to entertain the guests in person."

This Xi Yuan is naturally beautiful, and her speech and demeanor are very calm, neither the rumoredly high and pretentious, nor can she see that her daughter is shy because of the marriage contract.

Liu Qi looked at Xi Yuan up close, and Xi Yuan also raised his eyes to look at Liu Qi after giving the salute.

Under the shade of the willows, talented and beautiful women, bathed in the river breeze, are each measuring the original standard.

Liu Qi is still very confident in his appearance, after all, he has inherited Liu Biao's demeanor, and has been mixed in the upper echelons of Luoyang and Jingzhou for many years, with good etiquette.

Coupled with those moves in his later life, he stood in the wind with his hands in his hands, looking at the beauty at a slight forty-five degrees, and his temperament was very good.

And this Xi Yuan is actually very amazing, looking like a mist in the distant mountains from a distance, but looking at it up close, it makes people's hearts beat faster.

Willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, the bridge of the nose is straight, the skin is better than snow, especially the pair of full red lips, which has made Liu Qi can't help but want to taste what it tastes like.

In terms of appearance and figure alone, Xi Yuan and Zhao Linger have their own merits, after all, Zhao Linger was born as a dancing girl and was born charming, but Xi Yuan is everyone's best girl, but because of running a family business, it is estimated that there are many people in contact, and there is a shrewdness in purity.

She looked directly at Liu Qi's almost aggressive gaze, but she didn't give in, and her pure eyes revealed a bit of stubbornness.

This is the taste of a strong woman in business!

Liu Qi sighed in his heart, walked onto the wooden bridge, and came to the village on the cobblestone road.

After the ceremony, the housekeeper beckoned everyone out very interestingly, and there were only two people left in the study, men and women sitting opposite each other, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.

Although Liu Qi doesn't know how to negotiate, he knows that he must not take the initiative to speak at this time, otherwise he will be at a disadvantage, how can a big man be below?

Sure enough, after a while, Xi Yuan coughed lightly and said, "The general is here, I don't know if it's for business or private business?" ”

Liu Qi smiled and asked, "What is the difference between public and private?" ”

Xi Yuan replied: "If the general is here for Xi's industry, the little girl should give all the account books and account books, please see the general, if so, if it is for private ......"

Speaking of this, Xi Yuan glanced at Liu Qi, her big black and white eyes showed wisdom, and she chuckled: "The marriage contract between the little girl and the general, I'm afraid it depends on the parents." ”

Liu Qi smiled lightly: "What if you want to make your own decisions?" ”

Xi Yuan looked at Liu Qi, paused slightly, and said: "I have heard for a long time that the son is rich and has five cars, and his poems are excellent, I don't know if I can improvise a poem?" ”

Liu Qi said with a smile: "I still remember the chance encounter with Miss Xiangjiang Ferry three years ago, and the glimpse is still unforgettable. ”

Xi Yuan was a little surprised, and bowed slightly: "Listen to me." ”

Liu Qi coughed lightly, made a look of remembrance of the past, and said slowly:

"More than thirteen years old, cardamom tips in early February.

The spring breeze is ten miles of Xiangyang Road, and it is better to roll up the bead curtain. ”

Xi Yuanxiu frowned slightly, listening to Liu Qi's poems, her eyes gradually appeared bright, and she was surprised: "Is this really for me?" ”

"Or else?" Liu Qi shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "If it weren't for the relationship back then, how would my father have thought of being able to marry Xi?" This was all my request to get my approval, but unfortunately I was not satisfied with the soil and water, and my body became more and more depressed, probably ...... It's also because of a bit of lovesickness! ”

"Lovesickness?" Xi Yuanqiao's face flushed with a hint of redness.

"I don't regret the gradual widening of the belt, and I will make people haggard for Yi-"

Liu Qi opened his mouth again, and said angrily: "If it weren't for Cao Thief's deception too much, after getting rid of the Cai family, I should have come here a long time ago." ”

"Childe ......" Xi Yuan was finally touched by Liu Qi, and her eyes were shining.

As a strong and shrewd woman, those children who come to the door to ask for marriage are all submissive, and it is the first time she has seen someone as straightforward as Liu Qi.

The atmosphere was in place, Liu Qi stood up and took two steps forward, and was about to seize the opportunity, but Xi Yuan suddenly calmed down.

As if she felt Liu Qi's aggression, she took a deep breath and said, "If Gongzi comes on a blind date today, he will promise me a condition." ”

Liu Qi looked directly at her smooth and jade-like face, and said with a smile: "Don't say one, it's ten, what's the matter?" In the future, you and I will be a family, I don't think you will turn your elbow out, right? ”

Xi Yuan looked at Liu Qi with a calm expression: "The little girl has nothing to ask for, only to allow the little girl to be in charge of business in the future, instead of living in the deep palace and achieving nothing." If the general doesn't dislike it, the little girl is willing to be the general's Xiao He! ”

Another Xiao He, this Xiao He is inevitably too worthless, right?

Liu Qi knew that Xi Yuan was a woman with strong bones, and said with a smile: "You may not be competent to be Xiao He, but it is more than enough to be my cornucopia." ”

"Cornucopia?" Xi Yuan was stunned, and immediately understood what Liu Qi meant, pursed her lips slightly, and said in a low voice: "The little girl's whole body is a treasure!" ”
