Qufu Qu is in the dust residence Youyun Garden, in the courtyard pavilion, Qu old lady, Qu Zaichen, and Yun sit idly and drink tea, and Qu Zaichen stands next to Luo Yi.

Mrs. Qu sipped tea lightly, her joy and laughter were hard to hide, and she was overflowing.

Qu Zaichen glanced at Old Madam Qu and said, "What makes grandmother so happy?"

Mrs. Qu excitedly announced: "I found you a daughter-in-law, and I talked to her in the afternoon, and she promised to marry you." ”

Qu Zaichen's tea rippled slightly, Yun Xian laughed when he heard the joy, sat reclining, supported his head with one hand, and sipped slowly with a cup in the other, posing in an obvious posture of watching the play.

Old Madam Qu suppressed her smile, looked at Qu Zaichen and said, "The county lord has already asked the emperor for marriage, you know?" ”

Qu Zaichen said lightly: "I know, I have a countermeasure." ”

Old Madam Qu: "Is there my granddaughter-in-law in your countermeasures, isn't it?" In Chen, you grew up next to your grandmother, and since you were a child, your grandmother has followed you in everything, and she has never made you do anything for your grandmother, and you have never been deliberately filial to your grandmother, right? ”

Qu Zaichen calmly looked at Mrs. Qu's gaze: "This time my grandmother is going to be filial piety, marry the girl that my grandmother fancies, fulfill my grandmother's wish, and block the holy decree of the lord of Xin'an County?" ”

Old Madam Qu nodded solemnly: "Yes, only this time." ”

Qu Zaichen lowered his eyes and frowned, hesitating and thinking.

Mrs. Qu said again: "Your grandmother and I are open-minded, and I don't force you to live with a strange girl for a lifetime, it only takes two years, after two years, if you and Congxi still have no feelings, just reconcile, I will never interfere in your affairs again, what, grandmother is reasonable, right?" ”

Qu Zaichen was a little puzzled, and looked up at Mrs. Qu: "That girl is willing?" ”

Mrs. Qu: "This idea is what she proposed, and it is also one of the conditions for her to promise to marry you, from the most difficult thing to force in love, she has never met you, how the relationship is not yet known, it doesn't hurt to get along for two years, if two years later, you and him are still ruthless, it can only mean that you have no husband and wife fate, and you can only torture each other, so it is better to disperse and find a new fate." ”

Qu Zaichen heard this, his eyes moved slightly, but he didn't care much, and said: "She is a woman, even if she leaves, her reputation will be damaged, and after two years, she can put forward compensation conditions if she leaves Qu Mansion?" ”

Old Mrs. Qu: "Zaichen, you have the heart of a villain, she never mentioned this matter at all, she shouldn't care about any reputation, how can my granddaughter-in-law be so vulgar." Don't worry, I've tried a lot, I've never been the kind of woman who covets wealth and relies on people to live, that girl is smart and clever, and she has a lot of ideas, two years later, if she doesn't want to stay in Qufu, if you want to keep her, you may not be able to keep her. ”

Qu Zaichen thought for a moment and said: "Grandmother said that the two-year contract is one of the conditions for her to marry into Qufu, and she also mentioned other conditions?" ”

Old Madam Qu nodded: "Well, there are three, no, it should be four, one is counted as a condition for me to coerce her to marry into the Qu family, Congxi has a close neighbor, named Yu Tong, who is seriously ill and needs a lot of precious medicinal materials to save her life, I promise to follow Xi, as long as she agrees to be my granddaughter-in-law, the Qu family will help Yu Tong find medicine, and bear all the expenses for him to recuperate, this matter will be left to you to do, that Yu Tong is in the Natural Medicine Museum, what medicinal materials do you need to find, you ask He Ren to ask." ”

Qu Zaichen: "According to the friendship between my grandmother and Dr. He, if Dr. He speaks, my grandmother will also save that Yu Tong, right?" ”

Mrs. Qu: "You and my granddaughter-in-law really have a tacit understanding, Congxi also said that she guessed that even if she didn't agree to marry into the Qu family, I would save Yu Tong's child, but she not only mentioned my friendship with He Ren, but also praised me for being kind-hearted and compassionate, or my granddaughter-in-law is more able to speak." ”

Qu Zaichen said casually: "In this case, why did she agree to her grandmother's conditions and marry into the Qu family, because of the other two conditions?" ”

Mrs. Qu: "You are a villain, you really don't have my granddaughter-in-law's forgiveness, Congxi said that because your grandmother and I are charitable and willing to help with righteousness, so in return, she is willing to share my worries for me, and I will not let you be lonely and widowed for a lifetime." ”

Qu Zaichen's eyes flashed slightly, and he said quietly: "She can speak, no wonder grandmother likes her, what are her other three conditions?" ”

Mrs. Qu: "Congxi has a younger brother, whose name is Congran, and he is only fourteen years old this year. There is also a sister, named Lan Chu, who was rescued on the edge of the cliff in Xishan yesterday, and is considered a sister who worships, never worrying about Lan Chu and Congran staying at Cong's house alone, hoping that Lan Chu and Congran will live in Qufu with her, and you are not short of two bedrooms in Youyunyuan, I agreed for you.

Also, Congxi has an uncle, whose name is thorough, twenty-five years ago was a Jinzhou Xiucai, and he took the second place in the Jinzhou State Examination that year, and when he got together with a few classmates, for some reason, he killed two classmates and absconded. In the past 25 years, life and death are unknown, Congxi suspects that her uncle's case has other inside information, and hopes that the Qu family will help her investigate the case.

In addition, Congxi said that she used to have a childhood sweetheart playmate, named Jian Xuan, who lost contact with Jian Xuan when Xi was five years old, Jian Xuan's parents died early, and she didn't know life and death, and Congxi hoped that the Qu family would help her find someone.

I thought that these things are not difficult for you, so I agreed to them all, anyway, you and Congxi became married, she is your wife, and her business is not your business. ”

Qu Zaichen: "She put forward a lot of conditions, her childhood sweetheart's playmate is named Jian Xuan, can grandmother hear it clearly?" ”

Old Madam Qu: "Well, I heard it clearly, just call this name, what's the matter, do you know where he is, so he is still alive?" ”

Qu Zaichen: "The former Song Tuiguan of Jinzhou was transferred to other states, and I heard from the eldest brother that the name of the new Tuiguan who is about to take office is Jian Xuan. ”

Old Madam Qu was slightly surprised: "It's such a coincidence, could it be that this new official is a playmate who is looking for from Xi, then you have a rival in love." I see that the girl from Xi is very concerned about this Jian Xuan, and they have the love of childhood sweethearts, if she sees Jian Xuan, your fate with her is really unpredictable, I finally take a fancy to a granddaughter-in-law, you have to show me people. ”

Qu Zaichen: "If she has affection for Jian Xuan, why should she agree to the marriage of the Qu family?" ”

Old Madam Qu: "That's right, when she and Jian Xuan were separated, she was only five years old, what did she know at that time?" However, it may not be necessary in the future, if this Jian Tui Guan is really a childhood friend who wants to find, his parents died when he was a child, and he wandered around alone. He and Congxi had a childhood relationship, and he said that he couldn't see him again, so he ran to Jian Xuan's house, and you were embarrassed at that time. Don't always look like you're rejecting people thousands of miles away, yes, you have to give me some heart, I always feel that if you miss her, it's not easy to find a satisfactory daughter-in-law for you. ”

Qu Zaichen said indifferently: "If she likes Jian Xuan, I can fulfill her at any time, grandmother doesn't have to worry about Zaichen, Zaichen can live a good life alone." ”

Old Madam Qu: "I know, but you may miss a lot of things. Hey, it's useless to think about this now, let's see as we go. However, even if you agree to this, I can talk to Congxi, and I will go to Congxi to welcome my relatives at home in seven days? ”

Qu Zaichen: "Why is it so urgent, mother and. The county lord shouldn't let us get married, so we need to take some precautions, right? ”

Old Madam Qu: "Don't worry about this, just leave it to me." ”

Qu Zaichen wanted to speak again, but suddenly caught a glimpse of Yun Xian's arm slowly loosening, and gradually lying on the table, Qu Zaichen immediately realized that the tea was drugged, because it was the tea prepared by Mrs. Qu, he and Yun Xian were careless, and neither noticed that the tea was abnormal. It's just that this medicine was given by Mrs. Qu, or is it someone else? Qu Zaichen looked at Mrs. Qu, who was still sitting upright, looking at Qu Zaichen with a smile. Qu Zaichen suddenly understood that the medicine was given by Mrs. Qu, and she breathed a sigh of relief, and then she also lay on the table, unconscious.

Luo Yi hurriedly rushed to Qu Zaichen and Yun Xian's side and exclaimed, Old Madam Qu said calmly: "Shut up, the medicine is from me, they are fine, in order to marry my granddaughter-in-law smoothly, you will listen to my arrangements for the following matters, you know?" ”

Luo Yi hesitated for a moment and nodded.

Mrs. Qu: "What are you hesitating about, I know that you have always only obeyed Zaichen's orders, marrying a relative, you just heard Zaichen agreed, in order to marry my granddaughter-in-law smoothly into the house, today's matter is not allowed to reveal half a word, if my granddaughter-in-law flies, I will throw you into the river and drown, you know?" ”

Loy nodded this time.

Old Madam Qu stood up and said, "Early tomorrow morning, you go to the courtyards and pretend to be panicked, and say that Zaichen and Yunxian are innocently unconscious, remember." ”

Luo Yi hurriedly asked: "Second Gongzi and Yun Gongzi, when will they wake up?" ”

Old Madam Qu: "Three days later." ”
