Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Qi's father said seriously, "It's hard to buy old age if you have money. It is said that people get sick easily as they get older. My son hasn't married yet, and I don't have grandchildren yet, so of course I have to take care of myself. Those farmers in the countryside,
Even people who are seventy and eighty can still work, and my work is the same as theirs."
Mrs. Yuan Er's face was full of disbelief. You must know that it was her daughter who first married the Qi family.
Even if the daughter comes from the Yuan family, she is only a bastard. She has to choose from other bastards to marry, or marry at a lower age. How come it is impossible to marry into Fulai Street... What did she think of, "Then you still say you are eating chaff.
vegetable?"
"It's time to change the intestines." Qi's father continued cheerfully. From the corner of his eye, he saw that Chu Yunli's expression had not changed, and he felt even more satisfied. "But I know that the little girl's intestines and stomach are delicate and she can't eat those things. Our family has
It’s a man who eats the hard food, don’t worry, I keep my word. After I get your daughter, I will treat her well and I will never let her be wronged.”
Mrs. Yuan Er: "..."
So, did she really let her daughter miss out on a good marriage?
Last night, my daughter was very impressed that Qi Feng looked good. If only his family background were better...
The old lady's face was stiff and she couldn't force a smile. Her thoughts were similar to those of the second daughter-in-law. If she knew that the Qi family had a good family background and the Yuan family also had two daughters, the marriage would never have happened to Liu Yuehe.
Father Qi didn't care what everyone in the room thought, he waved his hand and said, "Yuehe, I'm going back. After I get settled, I will come to hire you as soon as possible."
Next to him, Qi Feng lowered his head and looked speechless. He glanced at Chu Yunli's expression several times.
Seeing that the people were about to leave, the old lady finally came to her senses and ordered, "Yuehe, you send them off."
After admiring the changes in everyone's faces, Qi's father was in a good mood and walked ahead with a smile.
Qi Feng lowered his voice, "My father and Uncle Yuan were both drunk when they arranged the marriage. Both of them were in a daze. Dad also insisted on fulfilling the promise he made back then... Before he came, he insisted on testing people's hearts. He didn't want to
I was planning to refuse marriage to such a snobbish family, but then I met you... and then I stayed for a long time."
No wonder the father and son of the Qi family left on the same day in their previous life. The two girls of the Yuan family should have been happy, and the servants had been neglecting them several times. With such snobbery, the marriage would certainly not have happened.
Chu Yunli looked at the tall and broad back in front of him. It was not unreasonable for everyone to think that Qi's father was a farmer. There was nothing noble about him. He asked, "Isn't your mother beautiful?"
Qi Feng: “??”
Looking along her line of sight, Qi Feng couldn't laugh or cry, "Yes, it's just that she is no longer here." He added, "Don't be angry with me. No matter what happens to our family, my feelings for you will not change."
Thinking of Qi's father living in the Yuan family these days, he must have received a lot of looks. She couldn't help but want to laugh, "Your father is quite interesting."
Qi Feng: "..."
"I'm more interesting than him."
Chu Yunli laughed loudly and sent her all the way to the gate. She watched the father and son get into a dark brocade carriage before turning back to the yard.
In the carriage, Qi Feng had a smile on his face, and Qi's father snorted coldly, "Look at the spring look on your face, hurry up and take it away from me."
Qi Feng put down the curtain and said dissatisfied, "Keep pretending. If my wife is gone, do you think I will beat you?"
"You unfilial son, who am I doing this for?" Qi's father scolded, "If we had come that day and revealed our identity, you would have been engaged to someone else long ago. It's not comfortable at all to cry and cry. I'm a father-in-law.
Whether you like it or not, I just want to see how you live your life. Now that you have settled on Yue He, how great! When I look at her, she looks like a member of my Qi family."
"Besides, I pretended to be poor because I asked you what you wanted. I didn't force you to change your clothes! How come it's now my fault?"
Qi Feng was speechless.
In fact, before coming to Yuan's house, he had never thought about getting married. Growing up, he would occasionally dream about a pair of transparent eyes, and he felt that that was the person he was looking for.
But it was just a dream, and no one would believe it. In fact, he didn't believe it himself, but he had no urge to marry other girls. The Yuan family was a child, and Qi's father said he wanted to test it, but he didn't even think about it.
It's better to agree or refuse.
I thought so in my heart, but refused to admit it with my mouth, "I want to marry Yue He, but you insist on not letting me confess to her. What if she is angry with me?"
Father Qi snorted coldly, "Don't think that I don't know that the hairpin you carved for her is made of fragrant wood. Anyone with a little knowledge knows that it is not cheap. You have indirectly informed her of her identity. You are still pretending to me.
!”
Qi Feng: "..."
Chu Yunli didn't know about the quarrel between father and son. Not long after returning to the yard, Rong Piao came. He hurriedly walked in and asked, "Does the Qi family really have a house on Fulian Street?"
Chu Yunli shook his head, "Uncle said so."
Rong Piao couldn't calm down at all. He held his hands and walked around the room, muttering in his mouth, "I knew you had good eyesight. How could my daughter Rong Piao marry only one farmer? With your appearance, you can't marry
It’s too humiliating to go to a farmer’s house.”
Chu Yunli disagreed, "Mom, if you look good, you must marry well?"
"You don't understand this." Rong Piao vowed, "It is not a good thing for a villager to marry a beautiful daughter-in-law. Once you get married, you have to protect her."
Just as he was talking, someone from Ronghe Garden came outside and said, "Girl, the old lady invites you to go over and discuss something with me, and my wife will come with you, so that I don't have to make a trip."
Although no one has seen the Qi family's house with their own eyes, what he said in front of so many people must be true. Rong Piao became more and more happy as he thought about it, and even smiled a little when he came to the old lady to say hello.
The old lady said with a straight face, "Did you know the Qi family's family background before?"
Rong Piao: "..."
"I don't know." If she knew, would she still have the nerve to cry while holding Yuan Lizong?
Gu didn't believe it, "If you didn't know, how could you accept this marriage?"
This was not pleasant to hear. Rong Piao said seriously, "The marriage was decided by my mother. The Yuan family and Yue He are kind-hearted. My mother took care of it for Yue He with good intentions. Am I the one who doesn't know what is good and what is good? I am ungrateful and force my elders."
I can't do it."
The last sentence is a pun.
The sting made Gu's face turn blue and white.
Forcing elders?
Chu Yunli lowered her head. It seemed that she didn't know many things here.
Everyone had different thoughts, and the second lady regretted it so much that she added, "Maybe it's just an ordinary family. If they bought the house after losing all their money, it doesn't matter."
Subconsciously ignoring Qi's father's words that he regretted that the house was too small, these words comforted her.
Gu agreed, "Maybe they are just bragging. Those country people can blow out thousands of chickens from one egg. You have to see it with your own eyes to know."
Next, the two of them talked to each other, belittling the Qi family as much as possible.
Chu Yunli was too lazy to listen and withdrew.
In fact, when she got the hairpin, she had some doubts about the identity of the Qi family's father and son. Because as soon as the box was opened, before she could see clearly, she smelled a light aroma in her nose.
In particular, the fragrant wood is also a kind of medicinal material. Women who wear it for a long time can calm their minds and have a good sleep.
It doesn't look cheap at first glance.
In the next few days, Chu Yunli didn't go to pay her respects, but Licorice and Licao would come back to tell her about the comments they heard outside. It was just that everyone thought that the Qi family bought a house after selling off their property.
Yes, Yuan Lizong has already visited the house over there, and the Qi family has indeed bought the house.
Everyone's comments were swallowed back when they saw the eighty-eight-carat betrothal gift that was continuously carried into the Yuan family on the day of the Qi family's appointment.
When the Yuan family asked to marry Mrs. Hu, the old lady personally bought sixty-six tons of betrothal gift. At that time, most of the people in the city witnessed it with their own eyes, and there was an uproar. Everyone knew that the Yuan family valued Hu's daughter-in-law, but it was a pity that they had only been together for a few years.
It ended with peace and separation. When everyone mentioned the betrothal gifts of the girls in the city, they inevitably brought up the matter and discussed it, and they all sighed.
Although the gift was eighty-eight today, they did not show off the betrothal gift like the Yuan family did in the past, that is, they carried the betrothal gift around the main streets in the city. The Qi family kept a low profile, and the two families were not far apart, so they carried it over directly.
.Except for the people on Fulian Street, no one outside knows about it.
The old lady sat at the top with a forced smile.
Rong Piao did not hide her joy. She listened to her mother-in-law and matchmaker beside her compare the items in the betrothal gift one by one, and the smile on her face became bigger and bigger.
The third lady looked as usual, but the second lady was the most uncomfortable. The girl in the mansion received so many betrothal gifts, which should have been a happy event for her face, but she couldn't even squeeze out a smile. She only regretted it.
In the cubicle on the side, Chu Yunli, Zhang Huizhen, Yuan Yiyi and Yuan Panpan were all sitting, inevitably showing some envious expressions.
"Sure enough, this guy is taking advantage of you because he's good-looking. I don't know what else he likes in you besides your face?" Zhang Huizhen said in a sour tone, "You can't serve someone with sex for long after all. After my cousin gets married, it's better to have children earlier.
It’s important to have a baby.”
Chu Yunli only felt childish and was too lazy to pay attention to her.
Seeing this, Zhang Huizhen became more and more distressed and felt aggrieved. She would fall in love with Yuan Yibin. First of all, she did have some admiration for him, but more importantly, because Yuan Yibin was the eldest son of the richest man and the richest man in the future.
It's a pity that she coaxed the old lady for two years and kicked away Liu Yuehe, her love rival. Unexpectedly, she couldn't become a wife in the end and could only become a concubine. The more she thought about it, the more she held her breath, and the handkerchief in her hand was twisted into a twist.
After accepting the betrothal gift, the dowry that Yuan Lizong planned to prepare before could no longer be counted and had to be prepared again. Compared with the betrothal gift, it would be more than the dowry when his biological sister got married.
After the betrothal gift, the marriage would basically not change. In the afternoon of that day, Qi Feng came to ask her to go out. The unmarried couple had someone to follow them, so they could indeed go out alone.
Speaking of which, Chu Yunli has been here for two or three months and has never left the house once. I have to thank him for being able to go out for fun.
As he walked out of the door, he saw Qi Feng. He was standing outside the gate with his hands behind his hands and a smile. He was wearing a moon-white gown and had a noble temperament. He was a little more elegant than the one in the green shirt, but he was not obtrusive. It seemed that he was supposed to be
The son of your noble family.
Seeing Chu Yunli coming out with someone, he smiled and came forward, "It's so beautiful today, I finally got to see you."
Chu Yunli paused and looked him up and down, "You are beautiful too!"
Qi Feng put his fist to his lips and coughed uncomfortably, his ears turning red quietly, "Let's go for a walk on the street first. The medicinal food at Lai Guest House in the city is pretty good. Let's eat later..."
The attendant next to him thought it was normal. His master was already good-looking. He got up before dawn today to choose clothes and accessories and was busy until he went out. If he didn't look good, he would be sorry for the time he spent worrying about it.
Chu Yunli got on the carriage and said, "I'll listen to you."
Qi Feng felt happy, "Yuehe, will you listen to me from now on?"
"It's daytime now, you're dreaming." Chu Yunli said bluntly.
To put it simply, daydream!
Qi Feng: "..." That's the right tone!
Her attitude remained the same, she would choke him if she could, and Qi Feng felt even more beautiful, and the smile on his lips never fell. Before he came, he was afraid that if she found out about his family's wealth, she would be trembling and afraid to joke with him.
For a moment, he was a little confused. Was there something wrong with him expecting the girl to be cruel to him?
Just when I was confused, I heard someone from the carriage asking someone unceremoniously, "Aren't you leaving yet? Lunch is going to be dinner."
Qi Feng immediately put the doubts in his heart to the back of his mind, mounted his horse with a smile, and coaxed, "Let's go, let's go immediately! I won't make you hungry. Let me tell you, that medicinal meal is not only delicious, but also good for the body."
