…
After the fall of the feudal dynasty, the wave of reform swept the earth like a spring breeze.
Ningshui City is a large city with a thousand-year history. Since ancient times, many civil and military ministers and large landowners have chosen to live here, and the economy is relatively developed.
And because it is close to the coast, it has a lot of contact with foreigners, and the impact on it is relatively large.
After the war, various new schools sprung up and were held in full swing in this ancient city, continuously spreading all kinds of new knowledge and new ideas.
In order to increase the knowledge of their children, some large landowners and old officials are also willing to send them to study as a front.
Because of this, many female relatives also have the opportunity to go out and see the world.
The ancestors of the Xu family have been in business for generations, and this generation is still a businessman.
The head of the family, Xu Tian, saw that children from other families had entered the new school. In order to follow suit, he simply sent his two daughters and one son away with a wave of his hand.
After the rain, the sky in Ningshui City is foggy, and a few drops of water drip from the upturned eaves from time to time. The crisp ticking sound highlights the tranquility.
From time to time, soft voices could be heard in the Xu family's mansion.
Xu Ting held her father's hand, with a coquettish look on her face and a coquettish voice: "Father, I just went to school not long ago, and I still want to see the outside world, so don't rush to marry me off...
"
"You, you." Xu Tian stretched out his hand and tapped her forehead helplessly, but did not let go, "Don't I love you enough? It's good for a girl to have seen the world, and marrying is the most important thing. Marry a girl
A good family is better than anything else.”
The situation has been unstable in the past few years, with wars coming one after another, and it is about to come here. The Xu family is a businessman with no power behind them, and they are afraid that they will be harmed in the future.
Those who are in power now are the warlords. Within a short period of time, marrying off one's daughter has become the only choice for clinging to power.
Xu Ting is beautiful and has attended a new-style school. In Xu Tian's eyes, she is the best candidate.
"Let's see. When the time comes, dad will double the dowry for you and have a glorious wedding, okay?"
The Xu family is not short of money, and to a certain extent, Xu Tian also hopes to please those adults in this way.
Xu Ting curled her lips: "Why do you have to marry me? Sister, can't you?"
Although the man her father wanted her to marry was indeed an officer who held a high position at a young age, she knew that he had some shameful habits. In his previous life, more than a dozen concubines had died.
Xu Ting was reborn, but she didn't want to marry him and be tortured by him.
Xu Tian hesitated for a moment: "Your sister's temperament is withdrawn and cold, I'm afraid she won't please others."
If you marry a daughter who has not been favored in the past and cannot help her mother's family, it will not be of much use.
"Father, don't worry. Leave everything to me. The officer will definitely like it."
Xu Ting vowed to do so.
Although she was unwilling to give in, Xu Ting could not deny that even though she had the same father and mother, Xu Chu was prettier than her.
That is to say, Xu Chu usually doesn't like to dress up and dresses lifelessly. If she shows that face, she is confident that the officer will like it.
This way you can escape from the clutches of the devil.
See you at ten o'clock in the evening
