The boy is hard to handle

Qi Pingnan took Luo Zhengbei's 500 taels, and took out his last remaining silver. Originally, he wanted to hand it over to Jiang Youqing directly, but after another thought, he couldn't just have silver, he had to buy it anyway. In addition, 200 taels were taken out of it.

What can I do with just 200 taels?

Qi Pingnan frowned, and felt troubled all the time in her heart, the 200 taels might be just a dish of money in the eyes of the Xue family, how could she get it?

Just when Qi Pingnan was having a headache because of these things, Xue Yanrong came to the door uninvited.

"Second master is inside, please come with me, madam." Yao Shichu led Qi Pingnan up to the private room on the second floor.

Qi Pingnan had never met Xue Yanrong before, and this was the first time today, but because Xu Matchmaker praised him so much, and he was the young master of the mansion, even if he had never met, he must be a dragon and phoenix.

Although I was prepared in my heart, but when I saw it, I was still stunned——

Xue Yanrong's delicate and handsome appearance, his unsmiling appearance, is even more elegant and profound. Unexpectedly, the famous Second Master Xue Furong is so graceful and gentle. Look at the jade crown on her head, it is very good Suet jade, silver-gray satin brocade robe all over the body, a piece of transparent Huanglong ancient jade hanging around the waist, gently swaying, revealing the aura of wealth around the body.

Qi Pingnan was really unexpected, and suddenly thought of her niece, she was really lucky.

Xue Yanrong looked at Qi Pingnan in front of her, she was not a vicious woman, how could she force her niece to jump into the river?It seems that this person really knows people and faces but doesn't know his heart.

Although Qi Pingnan is old, but for some reason, he always feels guilty in his heart, as if he has done something wrong, and Xue Yanrong's gentleness is only on the surface. If you look closely, you will find that his eyes are full of emotions. It is the alienation and indifference of the rich and powerful.

"Second Master Rong, you came to me, but what's the matter?"

Xue Yanrong stroked the emerald finger on his thumb, and said in a calm voice——

"I came to you not for anything else but for Youqing's dowry."

Qi Pingnan's face was obviously stunned, but her mouth was still firm——

"Don't worry, although we are a small family, the dowry will be fully prepared, and we will never let—"

Before Qi Pingnan could finish speaking, Xue Yanrong interrupted her——

"I've already prepared the dowry, and it will be delivered to the mansion when you go back."

"This, I'm afraid this is inappropriate?"

"What's inappropriate? Do you have a better way than this?"

Qi Pingnan's eyes widened. She really didn't expect Xue Yanrong to be so straightforward. Even though she didn't want to admit it anymore, she had to say that there is no better way than this. Just throw the little money in her hand and throw it away. Entering Xue's mansion, I'm afraid you won't even hear a sound, and you will have to be laughed at.

Just when Xue Yanrong thought she would eagerly nod her head in agreement, Qi Pingnan's brows were furrowed even more tightly, she stared fixedly at Xue Yanrong, and after thinking for a long time, she finally opened her mouth——

"In this way, will you underestimate Youqing?"

Xue Yanrong didn't expect that she would ask herself this. It seems that this person is not extremely bad, and he still has a bit of humanity. He can think of this level——

"I just want Youqing to marry better. Your Luo family can't afford it, but I can afford it. You don't have to have any burdens. It's been like this since ancient times when men marry wives. Youqing is a good girl. I, I am happy with you." She will not underestimate her, and will treat her very well, don't worry."

Hearing this, Qi Pingnan seemed relieved, her eyes were moist——

"With Second Master Rong's words, I can rest assured."

"But I have a little—"

"You say--"

"The dowry must be married with Xiaoqing, and I will send someone to check it. If there is one piece missing, don't blame me."

The words were not pleasant, but Qi Pingnan was not angry at all. The Xue family could see such a small family like them. Before they proposed marriage, they must have checked the situation of the Luo family. It is also clear, at this time, the ugly words are in the front, and it is understandable——

"After all, I am her biological aunt, so I naturally hope that Youqing can straighten her back and marry her, so you can rest assured about the dowry."

"Well then, you can just worry about it."

After finishing the matter, Qi Pingnan left.

The time was calculated by Xue Yanrong just right, she just arrived at the mansion, and the things were brought over, each carrying a full 32, filling Jiang Youqing's yard to the brim.

"This is?"

Jiang Youqing didn't know what was going on, but saw Qi Pingnan walking over with a smile——

"These are your dowry."

After speaking, Qi Pingnan took Jiang Youqing's hand and went into the room.

"this is for you."

Jiang Youqing looked down and saw that it was actually a 500 tael bank note.

"Auntie, that's enough outside, this—"

"You take it. I didn't give you these outside. I only gave you the 500 taels. Don't be disgusted." Qi Pingnan shook her head and said, "Xue Yanrong came to me today just for this dowry." I'm afraid you will be wronged a little bit."

In fact, even if Qi Pingnan didn't say anything, Jiang Youqing could guess it. After all, the box of wild ginseng alone is already a sky-high price. She didn't have to worry about the dowry, but she didn't expect that this person would go to find Qi Pingnan in person.

"He is a handsome young man, yes, Mrs. Xu is not bluffing."

Qi Pingnan had just finished speaking, and before she finished speaking, she heard Sui Mo exclaim——

"My God! This is too beautiful!"

Immediately afterwards, she was seen running into the room holding the things in her hands——

"This is?!"

Qi Pingnan was also taken aback, and said in surprise——

"He even thought of this for you."

At the end of the year, what he was holding in his hand was none other than Jiang Youqing's wedding dress. It stands to reason that this wedding dress should be sewn by the woman who is waiting to be married, but due to time constraints, the Luo family did not have that much financial resources. So I simply made the decision——

"I just said, why did Miss Yao ask me for your size? It's for this! Ouch! This second master is really—servant, servant doesn't know what to say! It's full of gold threads! Have this pearl! This, this is too beautiful! How much money is it!"

"This is a wedding dress from Jinxiu Village. Not to mention the handwork, it's just the pearls and gold thread. Not to mention 1000 taels, it costs 800 taels."

Qi Pingnan's stitches, except for the embroiderers of Jinxiuzhuang, no one in the capital has such a good craftsmanship.

"Hey! This, so expensive!" At the end of the year, I dare not touch it, for fear of breaking it.

Jiang Youqing's face is also like the sky at dusk, Xia Fei's face is full of—

"I don't know about this. When did Miss Yao come to ask, why didn't you tell me?"

"How did I know I was going to make a wedding dress? I forgot after I told her." Sui Mo scratched her head, she had always been forgetful.

On the other hand, Qi Pingnan, after being surprised, stopped being surprised. This is indeed something Xue Yanrong can do, so she only said to Jiang Youqing——

"Go and try it on, and see if something doesn't fit you, then you can change it."

The wedding dress is not an ordinary dress, it is heavy in the hand, and even heavier on the body, especially with the phoenix crown on the head, Jiang Youqing only feels like a half bag of rice is pressed on the body, if you don't use your strength to straighten up, you will be fine. It's going to collapse.

"Miss, you are so beautiful." At the end of the year, everyone was dumbfounded.

Qi Pingnan looked at Jiang Youqing in front of her. She was still the thin and small person before, but her meaning was different. Now she is a phoenix flying up to the branches, and she is no longer the child who has to bow her head under other people's roof.

An extremely strong premonition broke out from Qi Pingnan's heart——

In the future, my own pair of children may depend on her.

After returning from Jiang Youqing's place, Qi Pingnan couldn't calm down. If she had to rely on her in the future, then the relationship had to be repaired, even if she gave up her old face, she would not hesitate.

Luo Zhengbei on the side, because of the dowry that was carried up and down, began to make calculations in his heart again. He was used to stretching out his hands, and he always felt that as long as it entered his Luo family, whether it was his own or not, it would be fine. It belongs to Luo Zhengbei!

Just as she was about to say something, Qi Pingnan stared back at her with a merciless mockery——

"Those are all Xiaoqing's dowry. If you want to make such a crooked idea, I won't stop you. It's just that Xiaoqing's future husband is not easy to mess with. He is not afraid of death. Just go, I won't stop you."

"Uh——" Although Luo Zhengbei is greedy for money, he can still tell which is more important. No matter how much he thinks about the dowry, he doesn't dare to annoy Xue Yanrong. Don't drink tea, look at you, you really think of me as someone."

Luo Zhengbei licked the corner of his mouth——

"Of course we can't ask for the dowry, but I have to keep the dowry."

Qi Pingnan felt disgusted as soon as she heard him speak, and she didn't want to stay in the same room with him for a moment, so she walked out the door——

"Hey, where are you going?" Luo Zhengbei asked hastily.

"I feel sick, go out and take a walk!" After saying that, Qi Pingnan left.

"Disgusting?" Luo Zhengbei snorted, "I'm still disgusting with you!"

On this side, Jiang Youqing changed the heavy wedding gown and fell into deep thought. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he just kept staring blankly.

"You said, how can this second master be so careful?! Oh, this is simply the songbook of the infatuated husband in the drama!"

As Sui Mo said, his eyes widened, the skin on his face was taut, and he looked very serious, "Miss, although I haven't experienced this at Sui Mo, I can see that the second master is really serious. I really like you! And I like you to the core!"

Jiang Youqing blinked her eyes several times, with a face full of nonsense, she doesn't know at the end of the year, how can she not know, Xue Yanrong and herself are both women, this marriage is just to get what they need, it's not like that at all It's the same thing, not to mention two women, talking about whether they like it or not——

"You, don't talk nonsense."

"How can it be nonsense!" Sui Mo stretched out his finger, counting Xue Yanrong's good things one after another, "You just talk about that man's teeth, if it weren't for him, we might suffer disaster, and if you jump into the river again, It's still him, this Second Master Rong was sent by God to save you, miss!"

"The more you talk, the more you lose your chin. Why don't you say that I came to save her?!"

"You saved him? What are you saving?" Sui Mo opened his eyes wide.

"Save—" Jiang Youqing opened his mouth, and the words that reached his throat were swallowed by her again, "No, it's nothing."

"Look, you can't tell, miss—" Sui Mo spread her hands and shook, "You have to admit, this is fate!"

Jiang Youqing is the first and the second big, she waved her hands quickly——

"It's your fate to be here, I'm sleepy, I'm going to take a rest."

Sui Mo grabbed Jiang Youqing and dragged her back——

"It's broad daylight, why are you sleepy, don't go to sleep, you still have business to do."

"what's up?"

At the end of the year, he took out his needle and thread, and smiled at Jiang Youqing——

"You are going to get married soon, why don't you embroider a purse and sachet for your husband?"

Jiang Youqing let out a long sigh——

"At the end of the year, please forgive me!"

That night, Jiang Youqing had a dream. In the dream, Xue Yanrong came to pick him up on a white horse, and hugged him tightly in his arms——

"I will treat you well forever."

In the dream, Jiang Youqing had no power to resist at all, only felt that Xue Yanrong was getting tighter and tighter, his whole body was on fire, and he raised his head to meet him, at the critical moment——

Jiang Youqing suddenly woke up, gasping for breath, her cheeks were so hot——

clutching his chest——

What dream did you have? !

Then he turned around, looked at Sui Mo who was sleeping soundly beside him, frowned, and complained in a low voice——

"It's all your fault, the nonsense you said during the day."

Then he closed his eyes again, but this time he couldn't fall asleep no matter what, so he got out of bed after putting on some clothes, and walked out of the back room.

Sitting on the chair, I somehow picked up the sachet that I hadn't finished embroidering during the day. After thinking about it, my hand started to move——

She didn't go back to lie down until midnight.

At daybreak, when I got up at the end of the year, I found that the sachet and purse were all embroidered, and they were neatly placed beside the bamboo basket. I hurriedly lifted the curtain and looked on the bed in the back room. My young lady was sleeping soundly, so I couldn't help shaking my head and laughing. ——

"It's not just duplicity."

When Xue Yanrong came to propose marriage, Luo Zhengbei was the happiest. After finally getting such an in-law, who can live comfortably?

In the past few days, everyone said that he and Xue's family are in-laws, and Empress Yinyao in the palace would call him in-laws, as if he regarded himself as a relative of the emperor.

When I watched the betrothal gifts being carried in one box after another, my eyes couldn't turn around anymore, my mind was full of glory and wealth and those countless snowflakes and silver!

Zheng Junqing is a sensible person. Looking at Luo Zhengbei's appearance, he knows that he is greedy for money, and he doesn't care about it. After all, no matter whose daughter he marries, the bride price will be the same. This is the arrogance of the head of the Xue family.

It's just that Qi Pingnan's face is a little uneasy. Although they are small and small, they can't compare with the Xue family, but they always want some face, but Luo Zhengbei refuses to give it to her.

"The two children are so suitable, so it's settled." Zheng Junqing said with a smile.

"It's settled!" Luo Zhengbei shouted, with a smile on his face like a blossoming flower. "It's Youqing's blessing that we can marry an in-law like you. How can it be uncertain! Mother-in-law, don't worry!"

Zheng Junqing nodded, "If that's the case, then I will stay soon."

After exchanging polite greetings, Zheng Junqing and Xue Yanrong left, Luo Zhengbei and Qi Pingnan sent people out of the house, and they turned back after they got into the carriage and walked away.

Qi Pingnan disliked Luo Zhengbei's embarrassment, and didn't want to talk to him. He only said that he had a headache and went back to the house.

And Luo Zhengbei didn't have time to pay attention to her at all, wishing she would leave quickly so that he could check the betrothal gifts one by one——

"Good things! They are all good things! The Xue family is different, they are so generous!"

Luo Xunlin, who was on the side, walked over upon seeing this——

"Father, that was Xue Yanrong just now?"

He only felt that Xue Yanrong's appearance was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

"Well——" Luo Zhengbei just responded, but frowned again, "From now on, you will call me brother-in-law!"

"Brother-in-law? He's so much older than me, I can't say it." Luo Xunlin sighed, and said with great regret: "I'm so sorry for my cousin, a flower is stuck in cow dung."

"Cow dung?" Luo Zhengbei picked up the mandarin duck vase, held it in his hands and held it up to the light, then put it down again, narrowing his eyes, "If it's really cow dung, then your father and I hope that there will be more cow dung. It’s best to come in one car at a time.”

"Father, do you want cow dung too?" Luo Xunlin's tone showed obvious disgust.

"You brat! You know nothing! If you and your sister can form such an in-law family, then our Luo family will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future! You still look down on him!"

Luo Xunlin beat his head backhandedly, hitting his son's shoulder, and cursed: "Get off! Don't get in the way here, go back and read your book!"

Luo Xunlin was still unconvinced, rolled his eyes and muttered something before leaving.

"Move all of these to the warehouse!" Luo Zhengbei ordered to his servants, then raised his eyebrows and stroked his beard. "I don't know if Xue Yanrong has any younger brothers? If you can marry Eryi too In the past, wouldn’t it be possible to get such a betrothal gift again?! I can make a lot of money!”

On the other side, Zheng Junqing was sitting in the carriage, and when he thought of Luo Zhengbei's appearance just now, he couldn't stop shaking his head——

"I never thought that Youqing's uncle would be such a money-grubbing villain."

Xue Yanrong sighed——

"Yeah, otherwise she wouldn't be forced to choose to throw herself into the river. The Luo family made a small fortune by selling tea in the early years, but now they just collect some land rent to live on. Apart from that house, they have nothing left. .”

Suddenly, Xue Yanrong looked at his mother again——

"Mother, don't worry, although Youqing grew up in Luofu, she is definitely not like this. She and Naluo's family are two different people."

Zheng Junqing was startled for a moment, and immediately slapped Xue Yanrong on the arm——

"You think your mother is so confused. You can't understand this point? Youqing is Youqing, and the Luo family is the Luo family. They are two different things. Besides, when she gets married, she will be the Xuejiang family. With the Luo family What does it matter."

As he spoke, he widened his eyes again, pointing at his child——

"I can tell you in advance that when you marry Xiaoqing in the future, you must not bully others, and don't make your ass temper at every turn! If you scare your daughter-in-law away, I will never stop! Do you hear me!"

"Mother, what did you say?" Xue Yanrong immediately lowered her head, and her ears couldn't help but heat up, "Who, who bullied her."

Seeing her like this, Zheng Junqing couldn't help laughing——

"Mom, I'm happy!"

----

In a blink of an eye, the day of marriage arrived.

In the past two months, Jiang Youqing's status in Luo's family has risen in a straight line. Not only Qi Pingnan must come every day to ask for warmth, but even Luo Zhengbei has changed his previous mean face, and will follow Qi Pingnan to Jiang Youqing's from time to time. Let's take a look here, and what I say is good to say, what makes her marry with confidence and boldness, the Luo family is her forever natal family!Always support her!

Every time Jiang Youqing heard him say these words, he couldn't bear the disgust in his heart, and sometimes he really wanted to ask, did he really not remember those dirty things before?

At the end of the year, Qi Pingnan and Luo Zhengbei were sent away, and they returned to the house, sighing three times in a row.

"What's wrong with you today? You've been sighing all the time, are you worried?" Jiang Youqing was used to seeing her carefree appearance at the end of the year. At first glance, she looked like this, but it was a bit amusing.

"It's nothing, I just feel that people's hearts are unpredictable." Sui Mo said while removing the hairpin from Jiang Youqing's head, "Look at the appearance of my aunt and my wife, I really want to pick the stars and the moon for you, I'm afraid you have I don't feel uncomfortable at all, I don't think it's bad, it's just that I don't feel good, you said, if you hadn't met Second Master Rong and hadn't this marriage, what would they be like now?"

In fact, Jiang Youqing also understands in his heart that there is no need to say it at the end of the year——

Uncle and aunt like this have nothing to do with him, it's just for the power of the Xue family.

Luo Zhengbei took the dowry, counting the money with golden eyes, thinking about the future glory and wealth in his heart, so he was naturally polite to himself in every possible way, but the more he did this, the more disgusting he was.

And what about Qi Pingnan?

He would tell himself about those old things all day long, and he would bring out his mother every now and then, crying about his sisterhood. Jiang Youqing's ears were almost numb from hearing this for the past two months.

The reason for doing this is also very simple. It is nothing more than to let myself not forget the kindness of upbringing. After all, Xue's family has a great career and there are many connections in the palace. Qi Pingnan's consideration is not only for money, but also for her A pair of sons and daughters pave the way.

Jiang Youqing didn't want to think about it anymore, the more he thought about it, the more he felt the coldness of human nature.

"Miss, whether you like to hear it or not, there is something you still have to say at the end of the year."

"You just say it, there is no need for this between us."

At the end of the year, he frowned, "Miss, you must not completely forget about the past just because the aunt and aunt treat you better now. I think they are not sincere."

Jiang Youqing smiled, and held the hand of the end of the year——

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid. I can tell who's real and who's fake. The so-called married daughter's water spilled out of this door tomorrow, I'm Xue Jiangshi."

"Miss, it's good if you can figure this out." At the end of the year, she didn't want to provoke discord, she was just afraid that if Miss softened her heart today, if they turned against each other in the future, they would feel sad again.

Because Jiang Youqing is going to get married tomorrow, Qi Pingnan didn't let her come to the dining room for dinner today, and wanted to leave more time for her, whether it's preparing things or resting by herself, her daughter always has to worry a lot before she gets married , there are fewer people, and the heart can be quiet.

After the meal, he specially told the servants not to bother Miss Biao.

Luo Xunlin who was on the side heard this, his little thoughts began to move, and he said he wanted to go back to the house to study, but as soon as he got out of the yard, his feet couldn't help but went east.

It's just that his little fame, how could he escape Qi Pingnan's eyes?

He had just reached the arch when he was stopped.

"Where are you going?" Qi Pingnan looked at him displeased, and her voice was very low, "Didn't you say you want to go back to the house to study? Is this the way back?"

Luo Xunlin panicked immediately, and hurriedly lowered his head——

"Mother, mother, I went the wrong way, I'll go back now."

"Xunlin!"

"mother--"

Qi Pingnan walked in front of her son, frowned slightly, and said earnestly——

"Your cousin's husband's family is the Xue family, and she will definitely help you in her official career. You have to distinguish clearly."

"My son knows, and my son is also happy for his cousin, but mother, I heard that Xue Yanrong is eleven years older than his cousin. Doesn't this old man and young wife seem a little bit—"

Before the words fit, Qi Pingnan suddenly raised her arm and hit Luo Xunlin in the face——

He narrowed his eyes and scolded——

"You can say that too?!"

Although the force of this slap was not strong, it was extremely deterrent. Luo Xunlin was afraid of his mother since he was a child, so he quickly shook his head——

"Son didn't mean that—"

"How did I give birth to such a thing as you! Get out! Go back to your house!"

"Yes, my son is wrong, so let me go now."

Qi Pingnan looked at Luo Xunlin's back with hatred, turned around and told the woman next to her——

"Take care of the young master, and lock his door at night."

"Yes, the servant knows."

Luo Xunlin's mind is full of Jiang Youqing's appearance, and now he is clutching his chest and sighing——

"It turns out that the heartache is this feeling, it's really cheap for that Xue Yanrong!"

The author says:

Xue Yanrong: "The end of the year is right, I am your angel"

Jiang Youqing: "..." Wuyuzi
