The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is good, and the plum blossoms on Meihua Mountain are in full bloom every February, the scenery is particularly charming.
Aunt Ji with a water-red wiping forehead, leaning on the lilac embroidered plum blossom pillow, looked at the plum blossom that Wu Kuo brought back, and said with regret: "It's a pity that my concubine is inconvenient. Mei.” Aunt Ji’s grandfather was a third-class ceremonial assistant, and she also followed reading and writing since she was a child, but later she lost her family. Wu Kuo accepts her as a concubine, not only because she is beautiful, but also because she is brilliant and can read and calligraphy.
Wu Kuo's thinking is very advanced. He thinks that if there is a stupid mother and child, it will definitely be affected, and if there is a smart mother, the child is definitely not bad. In fact, as he expected, the children of Aunt Ji's previous birth were very smart. In particular, Jin Bo is extremely clever and savvy.
Wu Kuo smiled and said, "There will be opportunities in the future." After speaking, he teased his newborn son.
Wu Kuo likes Aunt Ji very much, and loves her children very much. This is why Fang is so afraid of Aunt Ji. Aunt Ji is young and beautiful and has the love of her husband, as well as bright children, and her son may inherit the family business, which has threatened her status.
At this moment, Wu Xiaomao, his personal follower, said outside: "Master, come from Gaocheng, he said he has something important."
Auntie Ji flashed a gloomy light in her eyes when she heard of the people coming from Gaocheng. If she hadn't been cautious and feared that she had returned to the West now, the hateful thing was that she hadn't grasped the handle, and she couldn't complain in front of the master.
When Wu Kuo heard this, he immediately walked out. Wu Kuo couldn't help frowning when he heard the messenger say something important, but didn't say anything important. After a while, Wu Kuo said, "Pack up and salute, and return to Gaocheng tomorrow." Since Fang said like this, I'm afraid it's really a big deal.
Wu Kuo had a conflict with Fang before because of the eldest son's marriage. Wu Kuo thought that the eldest son was going to have an official career, and it would be beneficial for him to marry a girl from the official family, but the Fang family wanted the eldest son to marry his niece. Of course, Fang's family didn't want to cheat her son to help her natal family, but she had promised the elder Fang's family to be a son and daughter-in-law with him. Although Wu Kuo finally gave in, he felt very unhappy in his heart.
As soon as Wu Kuo got up the next morning, he saw Wu Xiaomao leading a young guy over.
Wu Kuo's face was a little dignified, and he asked, "Shumo, why are you here?" This young man named Shumo is Wu Shun's eldest son. If it weren't for major events, Wu Shun wouldn't let his son go to the south of the Yangtze River.
After Wu Shumo saluted Wu Kuo, he glanced at the people next to Wu Kuo and said nothing.
Wu Kuo waved away from the crowd, and then he asked, "What's the matter in the house?"
Wu Shumo said in a low voice, "The lady said that the princess had taken a fancy to the second young master, and that the prince and the princess had the intention of recruiting the second young master as the son-in-law. The wife did not dare to decide without authorization, so she sent the young master to let the master go back quickly."
When Aunt Ji got the news, Wu Kuo was already on the road. Aunt Ji frowned her beautiful willow eyebrows and asked, "Have you heard anything about it?"
The maid Chenxiang shook her head and said: "At that time, Wu Shumo, who was only delivering letters, followed the master in the study, but the steward Wu didn't know what was going on." Aunt Ji spent several years on her patience to make Wu Xiaomao turn to her with the patience of grinding tofu. Although Wu Xiaomao was only a subordinate, his words also had a great influence on Wu Kuo.
Fang is also a shrewd person, and he has long been aware of Wu Xiaomao's transformation. But Fang also subdued Wu Shun, and with Wu Shun's help, Gao Cheng could avoid Wu Xiaomao from letting him know many things.
A hostile spirit flashed across Auntie Ji’s face and said, “Even Wu Shumo was sent out. It seems that something has happened in Gaocheng...” Although she has avoided Fang’s calculations for more than ten years, she also It is impossible to talk about the placement of personnel in Hao City without asking for a bargain in Fang's hands.
I also ran into the Fang family. If I replaced it with someone who was shallow-minded or didn't have enough means, I would have been stepped on by Aunt Ji long ago.
Chen Xiang said, "Auntie Wu, is it possible to ask the steward Wu to find out what's going on?" They don't have their own people in Gaocheng, and they rely on Wu Xiaomao for everything they know.
Aunt Ji’s eyes flashed in disgust, but she nodded: “Send the yellow rosewood box in the second cabinet to the steward Wu.” Aunt Ji has lost a lot of money in order to keep Wu Xiaomao in these years.
It was thousands of miles from Jinling to Haocheng, but it only took Wu Kuo six days to get back to Haocheng.
Back home, Wu Kuo immediately went to the backyard to search for Fang's family. After shaking off the crowd, he asked: "What is the matter with the prince and the princess wanting to recruit Jinyu as their son-in-law?"
Fang Shi relayed the words Yuxi said to her to Wu Kuo without missing a word, but she concealed Yuxi's unresolute attitude towards Zaozao recruiting son-in-law. Fang also said about the two meetings between Zao Zao and Wu Jinyu, and after finishing speaking: "Master, although the princess did not say it thoroughly, the meaning is already obvious."
Wu Kuo asked, "Will the princess still summon you during this period?"
Fang shook his head and said, "No, the princess hasn't summoned me since that day. I thought, the princess was afraid that she knew I couldn't be the lord and was waiting for the master to come back." Such a big thing, she must be afraid of being a woman. Arbitrarily broke.
Wu Kuo was silent and said; "The prince and the princess have this meaning, and we can't refuse. Moreover, the great princess is also a dragon and phoenix. She can look at Jin Yu and recruit him as her husband, which is also Jin Yu's blessing."
Fang's eyes were red and said, "I know, we can't refuse the prince and the princess who are interested in Jinyu." This was in her expectation, but Wu Kuo didn't fight for it, which made Fang a little bit chilling.
Seeing Fang's general knowledge, Wu Kuo was very satisfied: "Have you told him the truth about Jinyu?"
Fang shook his head and said; "No. These are my guesses. How can I tell the child, I will tell him when things are settled." After a pause, Fang said, "The child is filial, I believe he will understand. Our hardship."
Wu Kuo nodded and said, "Then I will write a post." At the beginning, he had high hopes for Wu Jinyu, but the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
Mother He entered the house, seeing Fang crinkled the veil, and asked softly: "Mrs., what did the master say?"
Fang's heart felt a little bit cold, and said: "He said that the prince and the princess were blessed to see Jinyu. Being a son-in-law is also a blessing. I would rather not have this blessing."
Mother He said with a mosquito-like voice: "Will the wife tell the master that there is still room for reversal?"
Fang shook his head and said, "No, it's not time to say this." If you say Wu Kuo now, you may not agree, so you must wait for the right opportunity to talk about her plans.
After receiving Wu Kuo's post, Yuxi smiled and said, "I'll be back so soon." Only eleven days later, when she wanted to come to Wu Kuo, she hurried back without stopping to receive the news.
Yun Qing said, "Summon him over tomorrow to settle this matter. In this way, that girl can also go to Guizhou earlier." This has been delayed for nearly half a month.
Yuxi laughed and said, "Do you think you are buying vegetables? You pay and get the vegetables and leave? Although marriage is not cumbersome, the three items of Nacai, Asking Name, and Najib are equally important."
Yun Qing thought for a while and said, "Then exchange tokens, and wait for her to go to Guizhou to kill the bandits before going through these procedures." Yun Qing found it very troublesome, but he also knew that marriage matters should not be sloppy. It was not grand for him to marry Yuxi back then, which has always made him feel guilty.
Yuxi didn't object: "There are priorities, and I believe the Wu family can also be considerate."
Yun Qing didn't worry that the Wu family would object, but just said: "Tomorrow we will see Wu Kuo together." This matter was settled earlier, and he would have less trouble for one day.
Yuxi sat on the right side of the upper position, and saw Wu Kuo coming in, and couldn't help but look at him more. Upon closer inspection, I found that Wu Jinyu and Wu Kuo's faces are very similar to the eyebrows. However, Wu Jinyu's temperament is simple, and his eyes are crystal clear, while Wu Kuo's eyes are too deep.
Yun Qing spoke first and said, "I have called you this time. I think you also know what happened?" Yun Qing has always been reluctant to circumvent things.
Listening to Yun Qing's bad tone, Wu Kuo lowered his head and said, "It is the dog's blessing that the prince and the princess can see Dogzi."
Yun Qing was satisfied with Wu Kuo's attitude, and said: "This king means that the two children are still young, and we will set up marriage after my family's dates and lily are over."
Wu Kuo naturally had no other words.
Then Yuxi asked, "I don't know, does Jin Yu know about this?"
Wu Kuo shook his head and said, "Not yet. I'll tell him about it when I go back. But this important marriage, the parents' order, and the matchmaker's words. He knows he doesn't dare to object."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qing's face suddenly became unsightly when thinking of the origin of the marriage.
Yuxi chuckled lightly: "That's what I said, but they will live the rest of the life. If it weren't for their willingness, this life won't be good. Therefore, before deciding on this matter, we should ask Linglang first. If he agrees, we Just exchange tokens. If he doesn't promise us, he won't use force to push others, and this matter will be treated as if we didn't mention it."
Wu Kuo's heart jumped and said, "Wang Hao, don't worry, Dog will definitely agree." I heard that Yuxi wanted to let Wu Jinyu join her family, because joining her family won't make much profit, so he didn't think it was a big deal. happy event. But now Yuxi's indifferent attitude made his heart lift up.
Yuxi shook her head and said, "Don't force it, let's ask the child's opinion before you talk!" This important matter of marriage, you love me. If Wu Jinyu is unwilling, even if Zao Zao likes Wu Jinyu any more, she will not agree with it. Door marriage.
Seeing Yuxi's resolute attitude, Wu Kuo nodded and said, "Okay." In Wu Kuo's mind, Wu Jinyu agreed with this matter as the best, and he had to agree if he didn't agree.
When he returned home, Wu Kuo called Wu Jinyu to the Daoshufang, and told Yuxi and Yun Qing about letting him enter the Palace of Zuo. Wu Kuo said, "I have promised the prince and concubine about this matter." This is not to ask Wu Jinyu's opinion, but to inform him.
When Wu Jinyu heard this, she frowned and asked: "Father, as far as I know, the prince and the princess have four concubines, why do they want me to be a parent?"
Wu Kuo couldn't understand what Yun Qing and Yuxi meant, and said, "I don't know about this either. But since the prince has spoken to the princess, we can't refuse."
When Wu Jinyu heard these words, he immediately said: "Father, I am not a parent."
Wu Kuo angrily said, "This is not something you say you don't want." Wu Kuo is a businessman, and a businessman is most profitable. Before that, Wu Kuo thought that Wu Jinyu would not be able to do business without studying, so he wanted to give him an estate so that he would have nothing to worry about for the rest of his life. But now that the big princess is admired, even if it's the Zuzuo, it is beneficial to the Wu family. Like the elder son's official career in the future, this official career is the most dangerous, so if he can find the big princess as his backer, the eldest son's career will be more stable. In addition, the big princess will never ignore something in the Wu family in the future.
Of course, Wu Kuo also had regrets in his heart. It would be great if the great princess could marry his son. Unfortunately, this thought only flashed through his mind.
Wu Jinyu is also very stubborn, and what he believes will not change: "Father, I have seen the prince and the princess, they are both very reasonable people. If they know that I don't want to be a parent, I believe they will not blame it. "
Wu Kuo said with a cold snort: "Marriage matters, parents' orders, and the matchmaker's words. I have promised this marriage, and you can't tolerate your objections." Wu Jinyu's objection is to challenge his authority as the head of the family.
Wu Jinyu's stubborn temper also came up: "Even if I die, I won't be a son-in-law."
Wu Kuo was so angry that the blue veins on his forehead rose: "Nizi, you say it again?"
Wu Jinyu repeated what he said before: "Father, even if I die, I won't enter the Imperial Palace."
Angrily, Wu Kuo implemented the family law on Wu Jinyu. The whip was drawn on his body all at once, Wu Jinyu's face was sweaty with pain, still crying unwilling to become a masculine.
When Fang got the news and arrived, Wu Jinyu had been knocked out. Seeing his son who had been beaten and bloodied and had passed out of a coma, Fang cried out distressedly: "Master, even if Jinyu doesn't like you, it's your own flesh and blood. How can you get such a cruel hand?"
Wu Kuo dropped the whip and said angrily: "You are used to it."
Naturally, Yun Qing and Yuxi couldn't help but make such a big noise. Yun Qing immediately asked Zaozao to come over and said, "Wu Jinyu is not willing, you go back to pack up and go to Guizhou tomorrow."
Zaozao was stunned and said, "Why don't you want to?"
Yun Qing said with a cold face, "Why are there so many and why? Hurry up and pack things and go to Guizhou tomorrow." Seeing her daughter so anxious for a man, Yun Qing was really angry.
Yuxi said: "Jujube, since they are unwilling, we can't force them, and the twisted melon is not sweet, so forget it."
Zaozao lowered his head and said nothing.
Yuxi felt distressed when seeing Zaozuo like this, but since they were unwilling, they couldn’t rush: "Go back to the yard and pack things!" After speaking, Yuxi patted Zaozao on the shoulder and said, "Zzaozao." , Don't be sad, my mother will find you a husband-in-law who is pleased with you in the future."
Zaozao replied absently and went out.
