Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Chapter 48



Inviting elder brother back to the room, besides replying to the letter, Wang Xiujin also asked about the marriage.When mentioning the matter of marriage, Wang Xiubo was angry at first, and then felt a little helpless. He briefly explained the dislike between his father and General Li, and then mentioned the purpose of marriage by the former emperor. Wang Xiubo probably didn't have many Thinking, but not now, he probably guessed something, the first emperor definitely didn't want the two families to be friendly, but to make Liang Zi more and more hateful.Otherwise, how could the two boys be pointed together.

Hearing that the eldest brother said it was a boy, Wang Xiujin couldn't help but sigh, it really is a boy.Wang Xiujin also couldn't tell how to describe the complicated emotions in his heart when he heard that it was a man. He didn't have a family in his previous life, but he has a chance in this life... During the years of living in the last days, Wang Xiujin saw many men and women From brothers who live and die together, to partners who live and die together, to be honest, it is far more convenient for two men to rely on each other than a man with a woman. It's not that he looks down on women, but that the girl in the last days is firm, strong, and Self-reliant women.

Wang Xiujin really doesn't have much feeling about whether the other half of the future is a man or a woman, but the combination of being driven out of the market, Wang Xiujin only feels that the sky is thundering, but he is not angry because the other party is a man.The matter of referring to the marriage can be discussed later, what I want to think about now is how to reply to the letter.Regardless of what happened to the two companies in the past, and what will happen in the future, they only use rice to raise crabs. They really have no technology at all, and the experience they can give is quite lacking.The two brothers glanced at each other, and tacitly decided to directly state the real situation when replying to the letter. Li Jiaxin believed it, and they had no choice but to believe it or not.

The elder brother was responsible for the letter back to Li's family. As for the letter from Li's parents and grandchildren, Wang Xiujin thought for a while before writing some, to the effect that he didn't know about the marriage reference, and he was a little at a loss when he suddenly knew about it.And hinted that after more than ten years, who knows what will happen.To be honest, Wang Xiujin had never thought about marriage before. He was only seven years old, and he was only eight years old after the new year. In the Liang Dynasty, men did not start discussing marriage until they were 20 years old. He still had more than ten years before he turned [-]. , At that time, it will be too late to think about things, how can I think about this issue now.

Stuffing the letter into the envelope, Wang Xiujin glanced at the eldest brother who was still writing the letter, and began to think about the marriage again.According to what the eldest brother thought, although the late emperor loved his father very much, he was also wary of Mr. Wang. Being an emperor is really tiring.When I saw shopkeeper Wu after the New Year, I asked the owner of the grocery list to inquire about General Li's situation.There is no need to think about the decree, unless the current emperor gives the Li family another marriage, or he has to prepare to marry the eldest grandson of the Li family when he is old. If the grandson of the Li family has no accidents, will he marry a spiritual card?Lonely in the future?He patted his forehead, and let go of the thought that just came up. Although he didn't have much impression of Li's parents and grandchildren who had never met, he couldn't curse him to death.Having said that, when two men marry, who will marry whom?

After Wang Xiubai finished writing the letter, he still saw his younger brother in a daze, thinking that his younger brother was shocked by the sudden news of the alleged marriage, and felt very distressed. Going to Beijing to take the exam and becoming an official in the future will be able to support my younger brother in business or when his younger brother gets married in the future.

Write it to the steward of Li's house, and send it to the gate by Wang Xiubo. When Wang Xiubo returned to the house, he saw his father's face was ugly. , when we left Beijing, why didn't we see him help us?"

"Father, when you left Beijing, your best friend never showed up, and you and the Li family had already had a bad relationship. The other party wished to break up the engagement because of this, so how could there be any talk of helping each other." Wang Xiubo was secretly annoyed at his father's words.Wang Xiubai felt that his father was quite unreasonable. At that time, he and General Li had such a tense fight, and now he blamed the other party for not helping. If the relationship between the two families was decent before, and they were not fighting against each other, now that his father blamed the other party, he would not say anything. , and even think the same way as his father.

"Hmph, why is he thinking about this marriage now? Isn't he asking for something, if nothing happens, he will remember his in-laws who are in trouble?"

"No matter what happened to the Li family, can this marriage be broken?" Mrs. Wang said lightly, and Wang Laoliu immediately silenced her voice, left the house with her sleeves flung, and returned after a while.Mrs. Wang signaled the two children to go to their own affairs, and the brothers went back to the room.It's not that Mrs. Wang has no complaints about her husband, but for the sake of her children, she has to endure. Fortunately, she can suppress her husband.

Not long after the brothers returned to the room, the voice of the village head's wife came from outside the yard, and then Sister Liu went out to open the door, and soon the village head's wife came in.When the elders came to visit, the two should go out to salute and say hello, and left after saying hello.

Because of the visit of the housekeeper of Li's house, everyone in the village knew that Wang Laoliu's family had a good relationship, so the village chief's wife came to find out who was related to the general's house, don't let her kindly arrange marriages for the children, but inexplicably offended the general , It is not beautiful to involve the family.

When asked about the marriage, Mrs. Wang was a little embarrassed. The decree of the marriage, they originally regarded it as a joke of the late emperor. Although the late emperor said it in front of the courtiers, there was no imperial decree to back it up, and it was not right to be lazy no.With the current status of their family, the Li family would be eager to forget about it.The Li family sent someone over, either to plot against their family, or because the new emperor brought up the matter.What is in the family now, although she can't move it, she knows the family affairs clearly, unlike her husband, she really doesn't care about world affairs, it really hurts the children.To put it bluntly, all her family's current possessions may not be as good as the Li family's income in January. If there is anything worth worrying about, if it is something in the ground, the Li family can find a good planter, and after a few years of trial, they will be able to grow made.I'm afraid that if the new emperor mentioned this matter, the Li family would have to put on a gesture.

To the wife of the village chief, Mrs. Wang can't mention the court's twists and turns, but cleverly avoids the fact that they are also boys. In the capital, now in the village, even if she doesn't know what to say in person, she might say something ugly behind her back. Mrs. Wang doesn't want her youngest son to suffer from the hardship of supporting a family, but also to be ostracized by the villagers.

When the village head's wife heard that Wang Xiujin was engaged, she kept saying good things and was worried about the sixth daughter-in-law. The village head's wife thought she was close to the sixth daughter-in-law, so she spoke bluntly, seeing no one around. Then he opened his mouth, "From the old sixth family, if the old sixth was an official in the past, it would be good to have relatives from this family, but now you..." The village chief's wife paused, and then continued after seeing that the old sixth wife's expression was the same. She opened her mouth, "The gap between the two families is getting bigger, will the other party ask Xiu Jin to join the family? Even if they don't marry, the other party can be regarded as the lady of everyone. After entering the door, can you hold back?"

Mrs. Wang just smiled wryly. When the youngest son gets married in the future, what is the difference from marrying into a family? They can't expect the Li family to fail. With a "marriage contract", if the Li family falls, the youngest son will follow suit.The Li family will not fall, unless their family can return to Beijing again, and their status is no different from that of the Li family, otherwise they will be inferior to the Li family. How can their son be equal to the other party?

"What I said may not please you. Xiu Jin is capable, otherwise he wouldn't be able to earn a shop in a short period of time, but no matter how capable he is, no matter how big he becomes in the future, Xiang is a businessman after all. No matter how much you have The money is not as good as other people's power." Seeing the silence of the old Liu's family, the village chief's wife went on to speak, she sincerely persuaded the old Liu's family, don't think that if you stick to the door to get married, you will not be able to tell if you have troubles in the future. "Why don't you break off this matter before Xiujin can support it now, and in the future, with Xiujin's appearance, you still worry about not being able to say goodbye."

If there were no events today, Mrs. Wang would have the same idea, but now that the Li family has come, unless the new emperor lets go, their family will be tied up with the Li family, and there is no need to think about retiring the engagement.The village head's wife still didn't open her mouth when she saw the old six's family, she still said in her heart that the other party wanted to get married, she was a little dissatisfied with the old six's wife, and then thought that the old six's daughter-in-law had no control over this matter, otherwise she wouldn't have been With a sad face, it is likely that the sixth child is making trouble again. I feel sorry for the family in my heart. They are all reasonable people, but the sixth child who has fallen into a demon.

The village head's daughter-in-law left with Gu's resentment towards Lao Liu, and when she went out, she met a few good people, who gathered around to ask if Lao Liu's family really had a good marriage, and whether the other party came to withdraw the engagement.The village head's wife glared fiercely at the few people in the village who love to talk badly, "What's the matter with retiring, the other party is here to give a New Year's gift, and I haven't seen anything left in the yard."

After the village head's wife left, the two brothers went to the yard to organize things.The Li family sent a lot of good things, books, paper, pens, inkstones, and a few pieces of high-quality ink, silk and satin, a few boxes of snacks that are easy to store, and a few boxes of precious medicinal materials. Not to mention the snacks for Wang Xiujin, they are all from famous shops in Beijing.Wang Xiujin is not a real child, and he has no interest in snacks, so he thought about waiting for the New Year to share with the children who came to visit his home for New Year's greetings.

After putting the things back, Wang Xiujin wanted to talk to his elder brother about buying land and expanding the house. Before, he didn't think the house was small, but now that there are guests at home, he feels that the yard is small. Now it's not that he doesn't have money. Just give the house a good fix.

Wang Xiubai disagreed. They had just been back for less than a year, and they owned land, raised crabs, and even set up a shop in the city, which has already made some people jealous. Also follow the crab, respectful to them.The fact that Li's mansion came today is likely to spread in the village, and a cart full of things will definitely cause excitement. If we expand the land and build a house at this time, we believe that Li's mansion not only sent things, but also gave away What if money attracts thieves?
