Chapter 643 You are not allowed to let go even if the sky is thundering and struck by lightning.
There are good things in the gift box, basically precious minerals.
All kinds of gems, all kinds of gold jewelry, in short, they are all money.
Jin Xiang didn't bother to talk about etiquette and opened the gift boxes one by one in front of Li Qinzai. Every time he opened one, his expression became more joyful. He didn't know whether he was happy to receive the gift or simply happy because Li Qinzai was killed.
Li Qinzai's expression became more and more bitter. The contemporary arithmetic master couldn't bear to calculate the value of this pile of gift boxes. He could only give his mother-in-law a good beating after going home. If he didn't unlock a few embarrassing postures tonight, he wouldn't be able to get through it.
.
"After all, you are the one who has been granted the title of Marquis. You are really generous with your actions. Thank you so much, Marquis Li County." Jin Xiang happily opened the gift box while stabbing it with a smile.
Li Qinzai sighed and said, "When will your father return to Chang'an?"
"What are you asking my dad for?"
"It's nothing, I just miss him a little bit..."
Li Qinzai smacked his lips. He really missed His Highness Prince Teng, his generosity, his handsomeness and his wealth of money, as well as his easy-going way of spending money like water. The moment he gave him money, his whole body was full of Taoist charm, which was particularly holy.
Jin Xiang glared at him angrily and said, "Father, it will be a while before he comes back. I heard that the roads in Bingzhou are almost finished. More than 100,000 local workers have been used to build them. In just half a year, they have already been built to a good standard."
Well, my father wrote a letter saying that it was all thanks to his day and night supervision, and the court will definitely mark him with great merit..."
Li Qinzai smiled: "He praises himself so much, do you believe it?"
"Why don't you believe it? My father is indeed very hard. He said in the letter that the hardships he has suffered in this life are not as bad as the hardships he has suffered in the past six months. He does not have the pomp of a feudal king at all on the construction site, and his food and accommodation are very simple...
"
Li Qinzai was surprised and said: "Your father actually eats and lives with the workers? This is amazing."
Jinxiang's pretty face was a little startled, and she said: "It's not that hard. My father's food and accommodation are still much better than those of the workers. It's just that compared to the extravagant days back then, it's much harder."
Li Qinzai nodded understandingly.
For the old man to be able to endure such hardships, he must have tried his best in his life. It is not easy.
Jin Xiang looked at him with a little smile in his eyes: "When you came back from your mission to the northwest, it seems that you are different from before."
"What's different?"
Jinxiang's pretty face turned red, she lowered her head and said with a smile, "It seems to have more flavor than before..."
Li Qinzai sighed dejectedly and murmured: "I have long felt that something was wrong. The mutton in Tuyuhun is indeed more smelly than the mutton in Guanzhong. It has been so many days since I returned to Chang'an and it still hasn't gone away..."
It's not perfect anymore, I'm so sorry.
Jin Xiang looked at him in astonishment and couldn't understand why this man's brain circuit was so weird.
"How are Jie'er... lately?" Jin Xiang suddenly asked.
Li Qinzai frowned: "Your question is a bit dangerous...what do you mean? What has my mother-in-law been doing behind my back these days since I left Chang'an? Otherwise, why do you ask like this?"
Jin Xiang was once again stunned by his brain circuit. He was stunned for a long time and said angrily: "Are you really... a bastard who can't change your temper in your lifetime?"
Staring at him fiercely, Jin Xiang said, "What I want to ask is that Jie'er seems to be different from before. She... doesn't seem to mind my contact with you now."
"Has she ever minded before?"
Jin Xiang snorted: "She found out that I was treating you... hum! From then on, she guarded me like a thief and almost broke up with me."
Li Qinzai clicked his tongue: "Look at your fragile friendship, the emotions of plastic besties are overwhelming."
"What is plastic?"
"Don't ask, you can't create anything by asking."
Jinxiang's little mouth curled up, and he added: "Later, when you returned to Chang'an, Jie'er suddenly became friendly to me and took the initiative to call me to the Duke's Mansion. Today, I feel free to let you come alone to give me gifts, so I want to know
, Jie'er... what exactly do you think?"
Li Qinzai was stunned for a moment, and finally came to his senses.
Yes, Cui Jie seems to be different from usual these days. After knowing the story between him and Zi Nu, she didn't get jealous or angry. She even asked him to give gifts to Jinxiang today. Apparently she didn't mind him being alone with Jinxiang...
There have been great changes. To be precise, the landscape has become bigger and the road has become wider.
"Jie'er is possessed by evil spirits?" Li Qinzai said suddenly.
Jinxiang said angrily: "I fell into your trap! Even my own mother-in-law didn't say a good word."
"What do you think happened to her recently?"
"Jie'er doesn't mind if you associate with other women. Wouldn't it be more in line with your wishes?"
Li Qinzai said quietly: "Only a woman who doesn't love herself will not mind a man interacting with other women. So, love will disappear, right?"
Jin Xiang laughed angrily: "You are really smart... You and Jie'er are both from wealthy families. Have you ever seen a man from a wealthy family only marry one wife in his life?"
Li Qinzai was about to say his father, but when he thought that his biological father had just taken back a concubine, he was not clean either.
Jinxiang said leisurely: "You were born in the Duke's palace, and Jie'er was born in a noble family. In the past, you were just a county magistrate, and could only be regarded as an idle official. And you have no ambitions, so Jie'er is naturally willing to be monogamous with you.
Live peacefully till old age."
"But this time you returned from your mission to the northwest and you have made great contributions. Not only have you been promoted to County Marquis and your reputation is world-famous, your Majesty has also valued you more and more. You will definitely become a general or a prime minister in the future."
"The more prominent the official title and the higher the status, Jie'er will understand that it is less and less likely for her to have you alone. The higher the man's position, the more help he needs from all sides, whether it is marriage or concubinage, as long as he can help you
If we establish a foothold in the court, she will definitely agree."
Jin Xiang said deeply: "Jie'er's compromise is all for your future. There is no woman in the world who knows the basics. She just voluntarily sacrifices herself to fulfill the other half."
Li Qinzai stared at her and suddenly said: "What about you?"
"Me what?"
"Jie'er compromised for me, what do you think?"
Jin Xiang finally understood, and his expression suddenly became flustered. He straightened his hair and hair as if to conceal it, and said with a blushing face: "What can I have in mind? What does your husband and wife's affairs have to do with me?"
Thinking back to the several times when he was in crisis, Jinxiang always took Prince Teng's favor without saying a word and silently ran to save him.
Li Qinzai couldn't help but sigh to himself, the woman in front of him was also a stupid woman, and all the women he knew seemed to be stupid.
Suddenly he reached out and grabbed Jin Xiang's hand.
Jin Xiang was shocked and hurriedly broke away. After struggling for a long time, he still couldn't get out. Jin Xiang blushed and glared at him angrily: "Let go!"
Li Qinzai smiled. Sometimes when he faces his feelings bravely, he just needs to reach out and hold her. It's that simple.
Jin Xiang's little hands were cold, soft and cool, trembling slightly in his hands.
Jin Xiang struggled for a long time, but finally seemed to have no strength, so he simply stopped struggling and let his hand be held in his.
Looking up, my eyes were full of tears, crystal clear.
"Li Qinzai, have you thought about it? Once you hold my hand, you are not allowed to let go. Even if the sky is thundering, you can't let go."
