Golden Branch

In the first quarrel between the "brother and sister", Wang Heng seemed to have won——

Lou Yu no longer forced the marriage, but agreed to Wang Heng to continue being brother and sister.

but--

Wang Heng lay powerlessly on the stone table, looking listless. How could she look like a "winner" at all?

When Wang Mian came in, he saw Wang Heng looking so depressed, and his heart skipped a beat:

Did the eldest daughter of the emperor really seek death?

Then, he was severely punished by the little pervert?

"Jiu Niang, are you okay?"

Wang Mian approached gently, bent down, and asked cautiously.

"It's okay!"

Wang Heng replied weakly.

Tsk, what could happen to her?

She won the argument with Lou Yu, and as she wished, Lou Yu agreed to stop being overbearing and continue to be brother and sister.

Wang Mian saw her best friend looking half dead and she really didn’t think she was “fine”.

However, seeing that she was only half dead and not completely "dead", Wang Mian's heart finally settled down.

The little pervert shouldn’t have made a move yet!

captivity?

Forced love?

Nothing!

Otherwise, he would not be able to see Jiu Niang at this moment.

In other words, even if you see it, it won't just look like this.

Being truly subjected to perverted "sadomasochism" will definitely hurt both physically and mentally, and the whole body will exude a faint sadness and endless melancholy.

As for Wang Heng in front of him, well, she was just a naughty kid who had been hit and had his defenses broken.

It's okay!

"I heard that Mr. Lou is back?"

As the richest man in Yizhou, Wang Mian has also developed his own information network in recent years.

Not to mention, she also has "Xiao Lang".

Xiao Wuji and Lou Yu have a good relationship.

Xiao Wuji was Yang Rui's confidant left in Qi, and he was actually in charge of the troops in Qi.

Both personally and professionally, Xiao Wuji was the first to know the news when Lou Yu returned.

Xiao Wuji and Wang Mian were engaged for life, so naturally he didn't have too many reservations about her.

In particular, Wang Mian and Lou Yu have a very good relationship. Xiao Wuji would naturally not hide anything from Wang Mian regarding Lou Yu and Wang Heng.

Early in the morning, before Wang Mian even went to the academy, he received news from different channels:

Lou Yu, the newly crowned Duke of Qi, returned to the Lou family fortress overnight.

When Wang Mian received the news, he thought of his eldest daughter who was "seeking death".

Ahhh, Lou Yu is back. Given how much he values ​​Jiu Niang, he will definitely run to find her as soon as possible.

But Jiu Niang is now a little troublemaker, and her every word and action can accurately hit the pervert's lungs.

The little pervert will definitely explode... and then, Wang Mian is so worried that there will be no further consequences for Wang Heng!

Without even having breakfast, Wang Mian got in a carriage and rushed to find Wang Heng.

"Ok!"

Wang Heng still looked dead, weak and exhausted.

Wang Mian continued to ask: "Did he look for you?"

"Yes! I came last night!" Wang Heng was frank with Wang Mian on most things and didn't hide much.

“…Then, then did you two—” quarrel?

Wang Mian really wanted to say: Honey, why didn’t you try to be so stupid as to tell Lou Yu that you didn’t want to marry him anymore just because you became a princess?

"There's a quarrel!"

As good friends for several years, even though Wang Mian didn't say the word "quarrel", Wang Heng understood her concerns.

Her slender, white hands were folded on the stone table, her pointed, delicate chin resting on the back of her hands. Wang Heng didn't look up, but simply raised her eyelids to look at Wang Mian and said quietly, "I win!"

Wang Mian: ...Sister, you really don’t look like you won the fight!

"You won? Why are you looking like that?"

There is no need to be too polite when speaking to good friends.

Wang Mian sat down next to Wang Heng and imitated her by lying on the stone table.

She turned her head towards Wang Heng.

The two of them looked like two little classmates lying down and chatting face to face in the classroom.

"Of course I win! My brother said, everything is up to me! No marriage! We'll be brother and sister!"

Wang Heng didn't know whether she was speaking to Wang Mian or to convince herself, her tone was firm.

Wang Mian: ...Haha!

Not getting married, does that mean not getting married now or getting married in the future?

As siblings, yes, he is your brother, but a lover's brother is also a brother.

Just a word game.

Wang Mian, a semi-illiterate person from the Dayu Dynasty who traveled from later times, could think of these things.

What's more, Lou Yu is a true scholar with brilliant literary talent and extensive reading?

I guess even Wang Heng herself has thought of this.

That's why she is so half dead.

On the surface, she won.

In fact, she still couldn't escape from Monkey King of the Five Finger Mountain!

Tsk, how could it be a monkey? Even if it was imprisoned, it should be a canary, not a golden monkey!

Although there is only one letter difference between the two, "canary" sounds like a sad story, while "golden monkey" sounds downright funny!

Wang Mian couldn't help himself for a moment, and his thoughts ran wildly like a wild horse.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore!"

Wang Heng saw that Wang Mian seemed to be speechless in his silence, so she didn't want to continue the topic. "The Wang Clan Ancestral Hall I rebuilt in Hedong is already completed!"

The Wang family’s ancestral home is actually in Yizhou.

However, Wang Heng packed up all of them and "returned" them to Wang Yan.

Only a few dozen acres of sacrificial fields were left.

After Wang Lin and other members of the Wang family returned, Wang Heng became the actual head of the family.

She then enclosed a plot of land in Hedong, near Wangjiazhuangzi, rebuilt the ancestral hall, and purchased new sacrificial fields.

If any of the Wang family members who remain in Yizhou are willing to move here, Wang Heng is willing to subsidize part of the corresponding expenses.

If you continue to stay in Yizhou, Wang Heng will not interfere.

Her "Wang family" is right here, next to Dongshan Academy, and has a complete set of Wang family genealogy!

The Wang family farm today is no longer the remote small farm it once was.

Not to mention anything else, the Dongshan Academy alone is enough to enhance the value of this land.

After several years of development and with the presence of Shen Du, a famous scholar at home and abroad, Dongshan Academy has already become famous all over the world.

The sons of powerful and wealthy people in Qi and even in the capital city traveled thousands of miles to study in Qi.

Wang Mian, a time-traveling girl who is always frustrated, still possesses countless knowledge that transcends her time.

Wang Mian had not only heard and seen how crazy the school district economy was in later generations, but had also experienced it firsthand.

After Dongshan Academy became famous, Wang Mian devoted all his efforts to building school district housing, commercial streets, and various workshops and industries related to the academy.

Around Dongshan Academy, there are continuous courtyards and numerous shops.

Its prosperity is even greater than that of Hedong County and is in no way inferior to that of Yizhou Prefecture.

Wang Heng placed the Wang clan's ancestral hall, sacrificial fields, etc. here, and also provided a certain amount of money, land, etc. This was definitely a great thing for ordinary members of the Wang clan.

After all, the ancestral land of Yizhou has fallen into decline.

There's nothing but farmland, it's a real countryside.

Where can you compare to Hedong?

Even if you don't want to study but just want to make a living, there are more opportunities available near Dongshan Academy.

Those who can read and write can go to private schools to teach children, or work as clerks in bookstores and copy books.

Even those who are illiterate can farm the land or work as laborers.

The business circle driven by Dongshan Academy is comparable to that of a prosperous provincial capital.

There are really a lot of job opportunities available.

The Wang family has an even greater advantage: their surname is Wang, and their head is the local tyrant in Hedong.

Here, not only do you not have to worry about being bullied, you can even feel superior to others.

There are more opportunities to make a living, as well as superior identity and status. The key is to keep up with the pace of the head of the family so that they can be further valued by the head of the family and have a better future.

So many benefits, but it’s just a matter of moving... After counting the beads on the abacus, all the members of the Wang family made their choices.

move place!

Follow the head of the family to rebuild the ancestral hall in Hedong and reshape the "Wang family"!

This matter has been going on since last year.

After six months of hard work, the ancestral hall has been built and the clan members have moved in one after another.

Everything was ready, waiting only for the opening of the ancestral hall and the presentation of the family tree. The new Wang family, belonging to Wang Heng, was thus reborn.

At such an important moment, it is a good opportunity to hold a "reunion" ceremony at the same time, so that Wang Mian's family can "return to their roots"!

“…I’ve already discussed this with my family, and they’re all incredibly happy!”

Of course he was delighted, as he suddenly became a child of a wealthy family.

Not to mention Wang Mian’s grandfather, uncle and other elders, Wang Mian’s cousins ​​were almost going crazy with joy.

After reading books, they understood more clearly the dignity of aristocratic families.

They could indeed take part in the imperial examinations, but even for the imperial examinations, the initial candidates were "recommended".

Moreover, the path to imperial examination is too difficult.

They all started their studies late in life - it was only after Wang Mian married the noble lady of the Wang family that the Wang family gradually prospered and had money to send them to school.

Wang Mian's oldest cousin had already married and had children when he was in school.

Only teenagers begin to gain enlightenment.

He is not a genius, he just has an average IQ, it is impossible for him to achieve academic success in just a few years.

But if they had the identity of aristocratic family, they wouldn't have to go through such hardships.

What lays before the feet of the sons of aristocratic families is no longer just a shortcut, but a smooth road to heaven!

"Jiu Niang, thank you!"

Wang Heng allowed Wang Mian's family to unite as a clan, which not only gave Wang Mian a noble status and a family background that could match Xiao Wuji's, but also changed the fate of their family and future generations!

This kindness is as deep as the sky and the sea.

Before, when being tested by Lou Yu, Wang Mian chose Wang Heng and gave up the superior conditions offered by Lou Yu. Wang Mian felt a little regretful.

But at this moment, Wang Mian no longer felt lost, only full of gratitude.

She did not betray Jiu Niang, and Jiu Niang did not betray her!

The friendship between the two sides was enough to make Wang Mian more determined:

In this life, she will never let Jiu Niang down.

The two of them will love each other forever!

Wang Heng waved her hand. Since she had already decided on Amian, she would consider her.

It's just a matter of convenience, there's no need for Amian to thank me too much.

Wang Mian also understood this: gratitude is not just words, let's see what she does in the future.

Wang Mian didn't say anything else. She asked carefully about the rituals, taboos, etc. regarding the clan reunion.

Wang Heng also answered in detail and gave key reminders.

The two talked about business for a while, and then started gossiping.

"Jiu Niang, do you still remember Lu Jialan?"

Wang Mian does business outside and goes to various occasions, so he is really well-informed.

Wang Heng also had news channels, but she was more concerned about important court affairs and news related to herself.

Wang Heng still needs to "share" many of the gossips and legends in the streets through her best friends.

"Remember! What's going on? Is she causing trouble again?"

Wang Heng's eyes lit up instantly. Oh wow, there was another fresh melon to eat!
