Guan Ji, who came back after traveling day and night, bit her lower lip. She originally thought about going to Feng Yong directly, but now she hesitated and walked towards Zhao Guang's house.
Zhao Guang was going to Yang'an Pass today. He got up early in the morning and was packing his things. The door of the house was wide open. When he saw Guan Ji coming in, he was surprised and said happily: "When did sister come back?"
"We just arrived." Guan Ji was about to throw the package on her body to Zhao Guang, but she suddenly paused, found a place to sit down, put the package away, and asked, "What are you doing?
What? Where are you going to pack your things?"
"Yang'anguan." Zhao Guang felt that there was no need to hide this from Guan Ji. "My elder brother asked me to go to Yang'anguan to ask my uncle for help. When my sister came back, did she go to see her brother?"
"I just arrived at the camp and haven't gone there yet." Guan Ji pretended to be calm. "I was a little tired from the journey and wanted to go back to the house to rest for a while. I passed by your door and saw you packing things. I was curious, so I came in.
Ask."
"Oh, that's it. I see that my sister looks sleepy, and I arrived at this time. I must have been traveling day and night? Why don't we go back and rest for a while? I'll go and inform my brother first."
"That's fine." Guan Ji nodded, wanted to get up, and asked casually, "Did nothing happen during the days when I was away?"
"There are no other things, but there is one strange thing." Zhao Guang thought for a while, then suddenly came over and said mysteriously, "Sister, you don't know, my brother is worthy of being a son of a master. Not only is he capable, but also the people in the house
The maids are all very different from other families."
"What's the point?" Guan Ji glanced at Zhao Guang and said calmly, "How many maids can read and write?"
Guan Ji also compared the maids of the Zheng Xuan family with the maids of the Feng family that day, so she naturally remembered this.
"It's different, it's different." Zhao Guang shook his head, "What I'm talking about is not Feng Zhuang who is far away in Jincheng. I'm talking about the maid Amei."
As soon as Guan Ji heard the word "Amei", her mind was agitated, thinking that I don't know how to mention this girl, but she didn't expect that you mentioned it yourself, and then she asked casually: "Then Amei, what happened?
thing?"
"Well, Amei has come up with a way to improve the spinning wheel. According to my brother, if it works, the threads spun will be three or four times faster than now!"
"So powerful?" Guan Ji nodded and asked again, "She has made a meritorious service, so how should Feng Langjun reward her?"
Zhao Guang glanced at Guan Ji strangely, wondering why his sister didn't look surprised at all. She also had a share of the ranch, but she didn't seem to care about it at all. Instead, she was concerned about how her brother would reward the maid.
Wait for the little things.
"Brother should reward her. She is a servant. If brother lifts her up..."
Having said this, Zhao Guang suddenly realized that his brother liked his sister. If I told the story about Amei being taken over by his brother, who knows what my sister would think?
Although my sister will know this matter sooner or later, she cannot say it out of her own mouth. It is best to let my brother explain it to her in person.
It's common sense for a man to have several concubines. I guess as long as my brother talks to my sister properly, she won't have any grudges.
Thinking of this, Zhao Guang laughed and said, "If elder brother wants to reward Amei, it is also his business. How can I know? Sister, you must be tired after a long journey, so why not go and rest first. Little brother first
How about going and telling brother?"
He felt that he had hidden his thoughts well, but he didn't know that Guan Ji had beaten him since he was a child. One look at his expression and he knew that there must be something fishy about this matter.
He snorted, lowered his eyes, and said softly: "Erlang, ask yourself, when General Zhao beat you when you were a child, when did you not come to me crying? I have coaxed you for so many years, why are you so heartless now?
, you don’t even want to tell me the truth?”
Zhao Guang smiled and said, "Sister, where do you start talking about this?"
Guan Ji raised her head and didn't say anything. She just glanced at Zhao Guang with her beautiful eyes like lightning. The meaning in her eyes was self-evident.
Zhao Guang originally wanted to hold on for a while, but when he saw Guan Ji's sharp eyes, he immediately felt weak and sighed, "Brother, brother, it's not that I am unjust, but this matter will be known to my sister sooner or later.
If you know it sooner or later, it's almost the same if you think about it.
After comforting himself in this way, Zhao Guang could only say: "Then Amei is my brother's personal maid. My brother took her into his house. It is normal to think about it. Sister, don't you think so?"
"Is the reward for being a member of the house?" Guan Ji sighed softly and murmured, "That's not bad."
"Sister, my brother is a great talent, and he is exactly what the great man needs."
Zhao Guang saw something wasn't right about Guan Ji's expression, so he walked to the door, looked around and saw that there was no one around, closed the door again, and then came back and whispered, "It's a good thing that my brother asked that Amei to take over the house."
"What's a good thing?"
Guan Ji looked calm and looked at Zhao Guang and asked.
"The Prime Minister and my aunt, haven't they always been worried that my brother is a member of the mountain family and will leave without saying goodbye one day? Now that Amei has been taken away from the house, doesn't it mean that he wants to stay in this world? Otherwise, why would he be a burden to himself?"
When Guan Ji heard this, she sneered: "What are you saying, are you trying to deceive others? Most of the people in the mountain gate are ruthless people. How can a little maid restrain them?"
"Others are ruthless, but my brother values loyalty." Zhao Guang strongly disagreed with Guan Ji's words, "Since the younger brother and the older brother met, the older brother has kept private things private, and the younger brother knows the importance of their friendship. When it comes to public affairs, it is the same.
You have done great service to the great man, so how can you say you are ruthless?"
As he spoke, he lowered his voice again: "Even for my sister, I feel that my brother is also very affectionate and loyal."
Guan Ji sneered and said nothing, glanced at Zhao Guang, and thought to herself, why can't I see the deep love and meaning?
"Sister, don't let your anger cloud your mind." Guan Ji's expression was so obvious that Zhao Guang couldn't see it. He said a little unfairly at the moment, "Not to mention that my brother is an outsider, but he has done a lot for the Guan family.
.As far as Sister Shan is concerned, others don’t know how important this pasture is, so doesn’t it mean that Sister Shan doesn’t know?”
Guan Ji was immediately startled.
"How many people were jealous of that technique of wishing a chicken man? The weight of this ranch is probably much heavier than that, but my brother gave it to my sister without blinking an eye. He just said it was with her.
My sister’s dowry, this dowry is so heavy, how many people from the family are willing to give it to their daughter for free..."
Zhao Guang was still talking. Guan Ji felt guilty after hearing this, but she didn't expect that the guy in front of her was talking about her dowry. She felt panicked and confused at the same time, and she was also a little angry. Who knew about the dowry?
What does it mean to give it to yourself?
If... if... I really take this as a dowry, I don't know who will get an advantage in the future!
"do not talk!"
Guan Ji immediately gave a sweet shout, slapped the case, and made a loud "pop" sound, which startled Zhao Guang, "Don't you want to pack your luggage? Why don't you pack it quickly? You will miss Feng Langjun's business by then.
, let’s see what you do!”
Zhao Guang shrank his neck and glanced at Guan Ji.
I saw a slight blush on my sister's face. I don't know if it was because of anger or some other reason. She gritted her teeth and thought that I should be brave enough to speak out for my brother.
Thinking of this, he finally mustered up the courage to continue: "Sister, I feel that if my brother is so talented, if women in the world are not blind and blind, as long as my brother does not get married for a day, someone will eventually get entangled with him.
.If sister is really serious about it, she might as well make up her mind early, seize the opportunity, and become the customer first, so as not to have to compete with others in the future..."
Guan Ji glanced at Zhao Guang indifferently.
Zhao Guang's voice immediately dropped, and finally he just cut off his sentence, not daring to speak anymore.
"Where did you learn these words? Are you still seizing the opportunity and turning against customers? Are you treating them as a battlefield?"
"Brother..." Zhao Guang muttered, "The art of war taught..."
Guan Ji:……
"Humph! If you don't use the good things I taught you on the right path, they will all be used on these side ways! Are you ashamed?"
Guan Ji scolded her, and without saying anything else, she picked up the package and left.
Zhao Guang looked at Guan Ji and rushed out of the door. He shook his head and thought to himself, the sun had just come up so fast. How could I be taught such a lesson by my sister for no reason? It was really unlucky.
Guan Ji came out of the door, turned around and walked towards her old house, but after taking two steps, she stopped again and bit her lower lip. Zhao Guang's words just now reminded her of her aunt's love for her in Jincheng.
What she said.
"Although there are people who are worthy of you in this world, there are not many people who are suitable to marry you. There are even fewer men who can tolerate you. They are worthy of you, suitable to marry you, and able to tolerate you.
You, and it seems that there is only one person who can catch your eye now. If I miss it, I really can’t say whether there will be such a suitable one in the future."
"The queen originally wanted to marry Si Niang to Feng Mingwen. Fortunately, Mrs. Junhou did not make up her mind at that time. But don't forget that Si Niang will be twelve after this year. When we talk about marriage,
That’s a completely normal thing.”
Guan Ji, who had never paid much attention to matters between men and women, suddenly began to worry about gains and losses.
That Amei was rewarded by him for her meritorious service. Although her methods were a little different from others, she was his personal maid, and her appearance was not bad. She was enough to be a concubine. No one could say anything about it.
It's his fault.
But if I have worked so hard for him for so long, don’t I get any credit? But he didn’t even say thank you, which is impossible.
After thinking of this reason for myself, I turned around and walked back to Feng Yong's house.
At this time, Feng Yong had finished dressing and washing, and the door was wide open.
Guan Ji walked to the door, lingered for a while, and then knocked gently.
When Feng Yong saw Guan Ji, he was really surprised and happy. He hurriedly came over and couldn't help but stretched out his hand. Only when he got closer did he feel it was inappropriate, so he had to take it back with some embarrassment, rubbed his hands and asked: "
When did Sanniang come back?"
Guan Ji saw that Feng Yong's happy expression did not seem to be fake, and the clouds in her heart dissipated a little. She smiled: "I just came back not long ago. I wanted to come over to see my brother right away, but when I saw the door was closed, I remembered
My brother has the habit of getting up early to exercise on weekdays. I didn’t see him today. I must have been too tired last night, so I didn’t bother him.”
Feng Yong didn't know the trap in Guan Ji's words. Hearing her being so considerate, he felt warm in his heart. He naturally accepted Guan Ji's package and explained at the same time: "I was really tired last night. I thought about the teacher's school.
I was afraid of forgetting some of my knowledge, so I was busy writing it down, so I went to bed late."
Huh? Why is this statement different from Erlang’s statement?
"Then Amei, haven't you been serving your brother? Why didn't you remind your brother to take a rest?"
Guan Ji followed Feng Yong into the room. When she heard this, her eyes flashed and she asked again with concern.
"Well, Amei accidentally sprained her foot. I asked her to go back to her room early to rest last night."
Feng Yong naturally didn't see Guan Ji's expression behind him and said casually.
After letting Guan Ji sit down, Feng Yong personally gave a bowl of water to Guan Ji and continued, "Amei can't be underestimated. She has a flexible mind, but her knowledge is a bit lacking. I plan to teach her to read and read.
I can’t say he’s a good helper.”
"What my brother does is always different from others."
Guan Ji pressed the water and suddenly smiled like a flower.
Feng Yong did not expect that Guan Ji, who had always been cold and aloof, would smile like this. He immediately felt that the room was full of flowers, and even the fatigue from not getting enough sleep last night was wiped away.
"Brother, what are you looking at?"
Guan Ji just dispelled the dark clouds in her heart, and she smiled involuntarily in a comfortable mood, but she didn't expect how attractive her appearance was, which was in extreme contrast with the past.
"It would be nice if Sanniang smiled more on weekdays."
Feng Yong said with admiration.
"As soon as my little sister comes back, my brother can't stop joking with her?"
Guan Ji pursed her lips and tried hard to regain her former calmness, but for some reason, Feng Yong always felt that there was some happiness between her eyebrows that could not be concealed.
"Okay, let's get down to business."
After all, Guan Ji has always been aloof to others, and Feng Yong has finally gotten closer to her. He can talk to her so easily, but he doesn't want to alienate her again because he can't control his mouth.
"It's just that Sanniang doesn't think it's against common sense for me to teach that maid how to read and write?"
"How many of the things my brother does are not against common sense?
Although Guan Ji's expression was dull, her beautiful eyes were shining slightly as she said, "My brother is as talented as few others in the world. What he does is not understood by others, which is the most normal thing."
"Sanniang still knows me."
Feng Yong only felt that Guan Ji was really his confidant, and laughed, "This Amei will definitely have a big future in the future."
Guan Ji lowered her eyes when she heard Feng Yong mention Amei again, "Since brother values Amei so much, have you ever thought about how he would treat her if she really has a future as he said?"
"What should I do to her?" Feng Yong asked strangely, "She was taught by me and she is a maid in the house. Even if she has a future, how can she run away because of this?"
"Of course she can't run, but brother, have you ever thought that when she really makes a difference and becomes his helper, the things he puts her in charge of must be important. But brother, don't forget, even if she is a maid,
That means you have to marry someone. If you marry someone else, you will be considered a member of another family. Didn’t brother Jieshi make a wedding dress for someone else?"
Feng Yong's heart skipped a beat. How reasonable is this statement?
When it comes to that point, will you be willing to let it go?
Don't talk about those words of the Holy Mother. Even thousands of years later, if their daughter brings a boyfriend home, the parents still feel that they have worked so hard to raise the little cabbage and got it!
What I grow is not cabbage, let alone Ganoderma lucidum.
Want to take advantage of the Ganoderma lucidum that I worked so hard to grow? Haha, let me see if my knife is sharp?
Seeing Feng Yong's expression, Guan Ji didn't know what he was thinking. She immediately smiled and said, "If brother is really reluctant to let go, little sister has a way."
