"Why do I have to give up my position as Duke?" Fang Xuesong snorted coldly: "The third girl's talent for planting is unparalleled in ancient and modern times. Farming and mulberry trees are the foundation of the country. She has this ability and will have great merits in the future. With the eyes of my father and Prince Rong, she naturally knows that she is an extraordinary person. By then, it will not be natural for me to marry the third girl."

"Haha!" Shen Yuanxi sneered: "Xuesong, you are not an innocent person. The Duke of the Kingdom and Prince Rong are interested in the talents of the third girl. They may agree to Yucheng's good deeds, but do you really think that they are willing to let you marry a village girl as your wife?"

"you……"

Fang Xuesong was speechless. He was a very smart person. From the tone of his sister and parents, how could he not know their plans? But... he had only this opportunity and could not miss it. He could talk about other things later.

So he brushed his sleeves and said coldly: "You don't have to worry about this. The third girl married me and I will protect her carefully. I will never let her suffer any grievances."

"You speak better than singing. Protect her well? In the backyard of your Duke's Mansion, can you stay by her side and protect her well? Can you be consistent with your own will, not take concubines or arrange a room, and be a pair of people with her for life? Can you let her enter and go to the Duke's Mansion freely like a bird, farm and make money to raise mushrooms, and do what she likes?"

Shen Yuanxi's words made Fang Xuesong speechless: There are three things he can't do.

Shen Yuanxi patted Fang Xuesong on the shoulder: "Checone, it's not my own selfishness. In order to compete with you for the third girl, I deliberately poured cold water on you. But the reality is here. With your love for the third girl, you can't escape the old customs and habits of those big families. Even if you can give her the title of the Duke's wife, you can't give her happiness. The world of the third girl is this vast and free world, not the magnificent bird cage of the Duke's Mansion. Do you understand?"

"Haha! You said it nicely."

Fang Xuesong patted Shen Yuanxi's palm and sneered, "I can't give her these, can you give them? Yuanxi, don't forget that you are also a rich young man, and Lingzun Lingtang is still there. Even if your family does not have such a specialty as the Duke's Mansion, there are still some rules. Why do you give the third girl a broad and free world?"

"Of course, I can be the leader."

Speaking of this, Shen Yuanxi was quite confident. Although he always wondered why his parents were so indulging in him, but in fact, he had the final say at home.

"You...you can be the leader of other things. You can also decide on your own will? If the third girl marrys you in the future and your parents will not like her, you will be able to protect her without any hesitation?"

Shen Yuanxi thought about it and said that his mother was indeed a strictly prohibited and righteous person, and she might not be able to look down on Su Wanqiu. However, "Xuesong, I will not worry about you when I give you your previous words back. Although I can't keep my step away from the third girl, her temperament will not be annoying in my family. I am confident that the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can be resolved. After all, my mother is just an ordinary woman, unlike the Duke's wife. She has been a noble daughter with a noble status since childhood. She has been rich and respectful for half her life and cannot tolerate other people's disobedience or disrespect."

Fang Xuesong was choked and could not speak. Although Shen Yuanxi was not a noble family, he had a very thorough understanding of the so-called famous families. Every word seemed to be hitting Fang Xuesong's heart with a heavy hammer, leaving him speechless.

The two looked at each other quietly for a moment. Fang Xuesong suddenly collapsed, covered her heart with one hand, and murmured: "According to what you said, I have no fate with the third girl? Could it be... Can't I let her make some regression with my personality?"

Shen Yuanxi sighed and murmured, "What do you say about you? Have you ever seen the third girl take us men seriously? If I had known that she was unique, how could she still measure her with the ideas of those secular women?"

He smiled bitterly and patted Fang Xuesong on the shoulder: "Don't look at me talking to you so well. In fact, in front of the third girl, I didn't dare to express my thoughts, for fear that she would laugh at me. It would be fine if I laughed at me, but I was just afraid of her... Alas! If I didn't say these words, I might be able to be friends with her. I could meet her in three days and five days, and laugh with her. If I say them, I would reject her again, what kind of face would I have to see her in the future?"

Fang Xuesong nodded and said sadly: "You are right. If you break this layer of window paper, maybe even your friends will have nothing to do."

He bowed to Shen Yuanxi: "Yuanxi, I really want to thank you today. Although what you said is like a steel knife to me, isn't it a revelation? I just thought that I could do it, but I never thought about the third girl at all. I...ah! I am so ashamed."

Shen Yuanxi looked at him and said in confusion: "Cedar, it's not so much? I'm just pouring you a basin of cold water to make you realize the reality. Why do you look like jumping into an ice hole in this way and never die? I thought that even if you are really ashamed, you wouldn't say it."

Fang Xuesong was stunned for a moment, suddenly thrust his chest and said softly: "I naturally have my pride. It's just... I took off my guard at this moment. After this, I was still Fang Xuesong. Forget it, I'm tired. Do you still have to spend the night here? But I want to go back and have a good rest."

"You go."

Shen Yuanxi nodded and watched Fang Xuesong leave in dismay, but he didn't see any of them. He was so determined that his face was facing his back to him, and even a cunning smile was on the corner of his mouth.

"Lao Liu, you have been smart since childhood. As long as you want to know, you can't hide it from you. Today... can you tell me a brief explanation? Did Sanya do the matter of Yishan?"

Su Mingjiang, who was making tea, suddenly heard Su Mingliang's words and was stunned.

After a moment of silence, he covered the teapot and turned around and frowned, "Yishan's first seventh is over. Third brother, why are you thinking about this again? Didn't you agree not to mention it from now on? The family finally came to be born..."

Su Mingliang waved his hand and interrupted Su Mingjiang: "I don't mention it at home because I want to continue living my life, but I don't understand this matter. I... I always have a thorn in my heart. These days I have been thinking, who is it? Who changed that bowl of poison? After thinking about it, no one can have this heart except Sanyatou and you. But at noon that day, you kept talking to me, so there was only Sanyatou..."

"The third girl was also taking a nap at her house." Su Mingjiang poured the tea into the tea bowl without hesitation: "She came over after us, this is what you and I saw in person."

"It was said to be taking a nap, who watched her sleep? The key thing is that no one can do except her..."

Su Mingjiang smiled: "Didn't you say it just now, I can do it too."

Su Mingliang:...
