Golden Branch

Wang Mian is not bragging, her eldest daughter has really changed a lot as she grows up, she has become so beautiful, so beautiful!

Wang Mian himself didn't realize when Jiu Niang became like this.

The fourteen-year-old girl has black hair and skin as white as snow.

A perfect oval face, but only the size of a palm.

The small face is full of facial features.

Willow eyebrows, lychee eyes, a high nose bridge, and bright red lips.

He was not very tall, but he was about five feet five inches (165 cm).

The key is the body shape. The little fat is gone, and it is no longer round, but becomes slender and graceful.

Oh no, Jiu Niang is not just thin.

She has a small frame and has lost weight, but she is not skin and bones. Instead, she is "slender and graceful with a well-proportioned figure".

To put it in the plain words of later generations, it means that where it should be convex, ... and where it should be curved, it should be curved.

The meatballs are very sensible and grow where they should grow.

This made Wang Heng look slender but not skinny.

With a slender waist, delicate hands and perfect facial features, she is definitely a stunning beauty.

Oh no, "little" beauty.

It’s not that Wang Heng is not beautiful enough, but she is still childish and young.

Wang Mian practically watched Wang Heng lose weight little by little, from being plump and weighing over 130 pounds to now weighing less than 100 pounds.

On weekdays, Wang Mian didn’t think anything of it. Di Zhanggui was still the lovely and beautiful little sister.

But, as if suddenly, the cuteness completely faded away, and the bud quietly bloomed.

It may not be in full bloom yet, but it is so beautiful that it doesn’t look like an ordinary flower.

Such beauty, such nobility, every time Wang Mian looked directly at Wang Heng, he couldn't help but exclaim:

How can a person be so beautiful?

Although he knew that Nuwa was partial, "Nidianzi" still couldn't imagine that Nuwa's magical product, which she showed off, actually existed in reality.

The legendary beauty, the goddess in poetry, probably looks like Jiu Niang.

I look at her every day and am still amazed. Someone who has disappeared for several months and has never seen Jiu Niang after her transformation will probably be very surprised when he sees Wang Heng again.

While Wang Mian was enjoying the beauty of his eldest daughter, he was thinking secretly.

She knew that Lou Yu was a little pervert.

Perverts will naturally not be affected by external factors such as identity and appearance.

He liked Jiu Niang because of her soul and her inner self, not her appearance.

But, perverts are also human beings.

If the appearance is as good as the inner self, and equally admirable, Lou Yu would probably like it more, ba!

"Amian, you don't need to feel lost. You are a noble person now!"

Wang Heng had already received Lou Yu's carrier pigeon letter and knew that the prince had conferred the title on Wang Mian just two days ago.

Wang Mian raised his head: "Huh?"

What noble person?

Haven’t I agreed to the alliance yet?

How come——

and many more!

Could it be?

"Lord Lou is back?"

"No! He didn't return to the capital, but went to the capital."

It was not until he returned to the capital that Lou Yu wrote a letter to Wang Heng, telling her that he was not at the canal but had gone to the northwest.

Lou Yu planned to discuss the specific matters with Wang Heng in person after returning to Yizhou.

He simply told Wang Heng that he had defeated the Turks, made military achievements, and had already been awarded the title of Duke of Qi.

There was also Wang Heng, who was also named Princess Langya by the sage and was given a fief of 400 households!

Of course, Concubine Jiang also ordered someone to send the news of Wang Heng being conferred the title of princess back to Hedong by express horse.

Wang Heng received two pieces of good news almost simultaneously:

Princess!

She became a princess!

She was no longer a poor little girl at the mercy of others, but a true royal lady.

Maybe, she is not a real princess, but she will no longer be treated as a plaything.

She even had the confidence to not get married.

The princess of the Dayu Dynasty was absolutely unbridled and ostentatious.

Keeping a lover, beating the prince consort, or simply becoming a monk in name only but actually letting yourself go.

You can pretty much live your life the way you want.

Of course, there are differences in the favored and unfavored princesses.

If she is not favored, she may not even be as good as a servant.

But Wang Heng didn't have such worries.

Her mother was the world-famous Concubine Jiang.

With a favorite concubine as her mother, the saint can love her as well as her family, and let this fake princess live the life she wants!

Wang Heng suppressed her inner ecstasy and did not get carried away. Instead, she congratulated Wang Mian.

"Amian, my brother has already requested a title for you. The Crown Prince has drafted it, and the Saint has approved it. You are now a fourth-rank county lord!"

The title of Princess is basically an honor that only the daughter of a prince can have.

Or the mother or wife of a fourth-rank official.

Amian is a woman who has not yet married, but she was able to obtain the title of a county lady with her own abilities. She is definitely amazing.

Wang Mian was stunned: "Junior? Me?"

Am I now a noble lady with a title?

"Yes! You've helped me and my brother so much. This time, when my brother was on a mission, you even spent all your savings!"

With hundreds of thousands of strings of cash, even if you buy something, you can still buy an imperial edict.

Wang Heng looked at Wang Mian and said seriously and firmly, "A Mian, this is what you deserve!"

“…” Wang Mian curled the corners of her mouth. She should be happy about such good news.

But, for some reason, she felt an inexplicable sadness——

Wow, wow, it’s really not easy.

After traveling through time for eight years and being a pariah for eight years, I finally, finally turned over a new leaf.

Having achieved class transcendence, they will never be bullied or robbed again.

"Amian!" She actually cried?

Seeing Wang Mian's tears rolling down, Wang Heng didn't say much.

She understood Amian because she was also so happy that she wanted to cry.

Wang Heng silently took out a handkerchief and wiped away Wang Mian's tears.

"Jiu Niang! Thank you!" There is also a little pervert.

Wang Mian is no longer naive, and she knows that not all efforts will be rewarded.

Not all contributions receive due credit.

She was able to have this honor because of the strong recommendation of Wang Heng and Lou Yu.

She had indeed not chosen the wrong person, nor had her efforts been in vain.

……

After coming out of Wangjiazhuangzi, Wang Mian's complicated emotions had completely calmed down.

With the imperial edict, she felt more confident.

If we were to unite with the Wang family, it wouldn't be considered as climbing the ladder.

"Is that the young lady from the Wang family in front?"

Just as Wang Mian was sitting in the carriage, thinking to himself, a male voice was heard outside.

The driver turned around but did not respond immediately, but waited for Wang Mian's instructions.

Wang Mian said "hmm".

After getting permission, the driver shouted back, "Exactly!"

Then came the sound of horse hooves.

The young man, about eighteen or nineteen years old, was wearing a lake blue Hu suit with a large lapel and a cowhide belt around his waist, on which hung jade pendants, purses and other items.

He sat high on the horse, with an upright posture, a handsome face and an imposing bearing.

He didn't try to act arrogantly, but he had nobility and pride in his bones.

He rode his horse to the carriage, pulled the reins, and whispered, "A Mian, it's me!"

Wang Mian lifted the car window curtain and saw a handsome and noble young man.

"Mr. Xiao!" Xiao Wuji!

The royal family of the previous dynasty in the southern border, the descendant of the Lanling Xiao family, a prestigious family with hundreds of years of history.

There is also the title of Marquis in the family.

Yes, Xiao Wuji’s grandfather fled to the northern border and was conferred the title of Marquis of Changle by the emperor at that time.

Well, just like the current Marquis of Anle, it is all to demonstrate the kindness and tolerance of the Northern Emperor and his preferential treatment of the royal family of the enemy country.

Perhaps he understands his own identity and is more of a mascot.

Or perhaps, Xiao Wuji had great ambitions and wanted to revitalize his family on his own, so he rarely mentioned his identity as the eldest son of a marquisate.

Following Yang Rui, he never showed off, but was very low-key and humble.

It was because of the canal that Wang Mian came into contact with Xiao Wuzhi several times and became "friends". He only gradually learned about it from his casual conversations.

Although the Xiao family is not as famous as the Cui, Zheng, Wang, and Yang families, they are also one of the most prominent noble families in Dayu.

Even the so-called Wang family of Yizhou is not as good as the Xiao family.

It is not something Wang Mian can reach.

Qi Da Fei even!

In addition to his family background, Xiao Wuji has another advantage that makes Wang Mian cry silently: he is handsome!

Who would believe that a grown man has skin whiter than hers and facial features more delicate than hers.

Others are a handsome man and a beautiful woman, but if she accepts Xiao Wuji's advances, then they will be a handsome man and a rich woman!

Wow, she is not even a talented woman, she just has countless wealth.

However, is Xiao Wuji really a good person and does he really make Wang Mian fall in love with him?

Woo woo woo, this handsome man who is both civil and martial, the noble and proud Jade Prince, when he looks at her, there is obvious admiration and liking in his eyes, how can she not admire him?

None of the young handsome guys in later generations can compare to him.

The most important thing is that Xiao Wuji never disliked her, and he never thought there was anything wrong with her doing business.

Although he is from a noble family, he does not look down on gold, silver and other valuables.

He recognized her career and admired her business acumen.

Wang Mian was not sure whether Xiao Wuji was her "confidant", but he made her feel very comfortable.

Even Zhou Jiming, whom Wang Mian once considered to be of the same class, had an inexplicable strange tone when he mentioned money.

Wang Mian knew that Zhou Jiming, as a scholar, looked down on businessmen.

As a result, even silver and money became vulgar and unrefined things.

"...Humph, what are you so arrogant about? Just because you read two books, you really think you're superior to everyone else?"

"Xiao Wuji is from a noble family, but he's not as arrogant and selfless as you are!"

Sure enough, with comparison, the difference can be seen.

Wang Mian doesn't like Zhou Jiming, but that doesn't stop him from being compared with Xiao Wuji.

Then, Zhou Jiming is incomparable, and Xiao Wuzhi is damn perfect!

The villain in Wang Mian’s heart was crying, I am not worthy of such a perfect person!

Therefore, Wang Mian had always dodged and hesitated when he noticed Xiao Wuji's feelings before.

Refuse, can’t bear to do it!

Accept, too many concerns!

But that was in the past. Now...

"A Mian, this is for you!"

Xiao Wuji handed in a small abacus from the carriage window.

Wang Mian: ...You are worthy of being my "confidant", the gifts you give me always touch my heart.

"Thank you, Xiao, Lang!"

Wang Mian did not refuse again, but accepted the palm-sized pure gold abacus in front of Xiao Wuji's surprised eyes!
