【Quick Wear】My Years as a Mother-in-law
Chapter 15: The Cowardly Mother-in-law Who Raised Her Head in Ancient Times 14
After sending the eldest son away and asking him to go build a relationship with Miss Wu, Yun Xi called the four concubines and asked them what they thought. Qi Wu said embarrassedly, "My daughters will leave it to their mother to decide. But the young master of the Guan family is really handsome. I heard he is proficient in music."
Yun Xi took out a brush and wrote it down. She looked at Qi Liu, who bit her lip and said, "Mother, I heard that Caiyi Pavilion was opened by the Li family?"
"That's true, but the Li family only opened this one store, and their financial situation is not as good as the Qi family." Yun Xi said.
"Is the Li family very poor?" Qi Liu hesitated.
Yun Xi shook her head. "That's not the case. Caiyi Pavilion makes quite a bit of money, but it's not as profitable as the Qi family. I heard they have a farm outside the city, a house in the city, and the Caiyi Pavilion shop. It seems they don't have any other businesses, so it's a bit thin."
Qi Liu twisted his hands and whispered, "But the Li family only has this one son, and all the family property will belong to him in the future."
Yun Xi was surprised. She hadn't expected Xiao Liu to be so clear-headed. "Okay, let's see if he's interested when we get down the mountain. What about you, Xiao Qi? I see you love writing poetry. Have you ever taken a fancy to a scholar or something?"
Qi Qi tilted his head slightly, his temperament cold and clear, "Mother, since ancient times, scholars have been the most ruthless. I was afraid I couldn't control myself, so I didn't dare to think that way. But I saw an interesting person, the eldest grandson of the Zhou family. He loves to laugh, has a good sense of humor, and can tell jokes. When he laughs, his little canine teeth look very nice."
"Oh, Xiao Qi likes people who are like the sun." Yun Xi never expected that a cool goddess would be paired with a funny and sunny boy. Is this a good match?
Qi Qi blushed and pulled Xiao Ba forward, "Mom, Xiao Ba likes people who read books."
"Oh, sister, what nonsense are you talking about?" Xiao Ba gently hit Xiao Qi, then said heartlessly: "Mother, although I like scholars, I also know that I am not worthy of them. I ask you to help me choose a husband. As long as he is not too ugly, it will be fine."
Come on, this is a face control.
"It's summer now, and willows and peonies are available. Let's see if you can get them then." Yun Xi smiled, "You can also prepare some willow branches or peonies, and I'll have the servants send them to the man you like."
The four girls laughed and said, "Mom, let's get ready right away."
"it is good."
Several people picked peony flowers. Yun Xi asked the two servants who followed her to help deliver the flowers. One flower each for the young masters of the Guan, Li and Zhou families. As for Xiao Ba's, she gave it to the young master of the Chen family. He was already a student and was handsome, but she didn't know whether he would like Xiao Ba.
"Okay, the blind date has come to an end. It's a rare opportunity for me to come out, so you guys can take the maid out for a walk and come back before Youshi." Yun Xi drove everyone away and was alone and free.
She took Dongzhu and Xiaodong to stroll around the mountain behind the temple. The green mountains, clear waters and fresh air made her feel elevated.
"Dongzhu, is that a bamboo forest over there?"
Walking to a secluded place, Yun Xi saw a large bamboo forest in the distance.
At this time, the system said: "It rained recently, and the temperature deep in the bamboo forest is low, so many bamboo fungi have grown."
When Yun Xi heard this, she quickly asked the two to go pick bamboo fungus. They walked into the bamboo forest and went to the deepest part. The temperature was indeed getting lower and lower. Dong Zhu rubbed his arms and said, "Old lady, it's so cold in here."
"Well, go back as soon as you finish picking."
Xiaodong was exploring the path ahead with a stick. When he saw the bamboo fungus, he quickly ran back and said, "The old lady is right ahead. It's such a big patch. I think we can pick ten kilograms."
"Okay, let's go."
Yun Xi laughed heartily, no longer tired, and walked forward quickly. Seeing the white and tender bamboo fungus, she waved her hand and began to pick it.
The three of them were quick and after picking for a quarter of an hour, Dongzhu and Xiaodong's clothes were almost unable to hold them.
After returning to the residence and putting the bamboo fungus away, Yun Xi saw that the peonies and willow branches sent by others had also arrived. She took a look and found that except for the eldest grandson of the Zhou family, Xiaowu, Xiaoliu and Xiaoba had all received peonies or willow branches from their loved ones, and Xiaoqi had also received quite a few peonies and willow branches.
This child has a cool and fairy-like appearance, is very charming, and can read and write poetry. Yun Xi never thought that the eldest grandson of the Zhou family did not like her.
"Don't think too much. You have a cold personality and he has a warm personality. Ice and fire are incompatible. Don't force it if there is no fate." Yun Xi comforted her.
Xiao Qi thought for a moment, puffed up his cheeks and said angrily, "He has no taste, I don't care."
Xiao Ba asked quickly, "Seventh Sister, who did you choose? You received three peonies and two willow branches."
Xiao Qi looked at the flowers and willow branches on the table. He picked up one and saw the brocade bag on it. He asked curiously, "Why is there another brocade bag?"
Dong Zhu hurried out to ask the servant, who came back and said strangely, "This was sent by the prefect's youngest son, Cheng Jinwen."
Xiao Ba exclaimed, "Master Cheng is not on today's list of people to visit, right?"
"Yes, Young Master Cheng accompanied the old lady of the Cheng family to burn incense today. He must have seen Miss Seven by chance, so he asked someone to inquire about her and sent peonies." Dong Zhu told the news he had heard.
Yun Xi took the brocade bag and opened it, pulling out a note and a piece of high-quality black jade pendant from it. "Greetings, Madam Qi. I'm sorry for being rude. I've already informed Grandmother and Mother about this matter. If I've offended you, I'm ashamed."
Qi Qi couldn't believe it. He took the note and read it again and again, his face flushed red. "This person really knows the rules."
Yun Xi looked at her and said helplessly, "Then let's go with this person. Go pick some peony flowers and send them to him. Don't make him wait anxiously."
Qi Qi nodded heavily and ran out with a smile. Qi Wu and the other two were extremely envious. Qi Wu said sourly, "I heard that Young Master Cheng has become a disciple of the dean of Yuelu Academy and is preparing for the next exam. Who knows, he might even pass the exam and become a scholar."
Qi Liu whispered, "Young Master Cheng is only fourteen years old this year."
Xiao Ba pouted, "Sister Qi is so lucky."
"You are lucky. Your marriage is destined by heaven. What kind of life you will lead depends on your own efforts. Don't be afraid if you are wronged. The dowry your mother has prepared for you is enough for you to live a rich life. The worst that can happen is a divorce and reunite your family." Yun Xi comforted them and prepared to set off for home.
The proposal of marriage, the asking for the bride price, the asking for the bride price and the asking for the bride price will be done in a low-key manner under the matchmaking of Li the matchmaker, and the marriage can be held after the mourning period is over.
After getting on the carriage, everyone couldn't help showing their joy. The journey was so smooth, it was a good omen. Unexpectedly, halfway through the journey, a woman fainted on the ground.
Yun Xi's heart moved and it came.
The system quickly explained her confusion, "She's the original owner's fourth daughter. This child is very lucky. The upper half of her face is exactly like your deceased husband, and the lower half is exactly like you."
"Well, that's good. This way, the preparations I've made will further prove that she is the daughter of the Qi family."
After chatting with the system, Yun Xi entered the exercise mode.
