The old lady is not stupid. When she was young, she also fought wits and bravery with several concubines of the old lady and experienced a lot.For a situation like Miss Zhao Er, if she hadn't noticed it, of course she wouldn't have any doubts, but if she had doubts, then many of Miss Zhao Er's actions would become invisible to her.

After a pause, she turned her head to look at Wei Ruolan: "Brother Lan, you have always said that you don't like auntie, why?"

The old lady smiled helplessly. She had only tried to get in touch with Miss Zhao Er at the beginning, and after confirming that she was a pretty good girl, she told Lang Ge'er without any concealment that his future stepmother would probably decide on Miss Zhao Er.The two are obviously blood relatives, but they only met once, and Lang Geer is very repulsive to Miss Zhao Er, always whispering in her ears that she doesn't like Miss Zhao Er and doesn't want her to be a stepmother.

When asked the reason, Lan Ge'er always couldn't tell clearly, but just said that he didn't like Miss Zhao Er.

When the old lady was in her teens, her mother had dystocia and killed two of them. Within two years, her father married her stepmother.So she is very aware of the child's rejection of her father's remarriage, so she only thinks that Lang Ge'er is the same as she was at the beginning, but she doesn't want her father to remarry. It's not aimed at Miss Zhao Er.

It was also because of this that the old lady never took Lan Ge'er's words to heart, and she still insisted on contacting Miss Zhao Er, and even regarded her as the best marriage partner.

But now it seems that there may be something else hidden in it.

Wei Ruolan curled her lips and snorted dissatisfiedly: "She didn't do anything to me, but every time she looks at me, it makes me feel very uncomfortable."

Miss Zhao Er is not stupid, no matter how dissatisfied she is with Wei Ruolan, before marrying into the Dingwei Hou Mansion, she can't really do anything to Wei Ruolan, and she even has to put Wei Ruolan held it well, and she couldn't show any outrageous behavior, otherwise, let alone Wei Ruolan would sue herself, even if the servants of Dingweihou's mansion saw it and said casually, she would not be able to marry into Dingwei. Weihou Mansion.

After all, the Zhao family was in decline, and there was still some discord with the Dingwei Hou Mansion in the early years.

Compared with other girls with outstanding family background and both talent and appearance, the only advantage and bargaining chip of the second girl Zhao, who was born in the Zhao family, is her relationship with Wei Ruolan, because this means that after she marries into the Dingweihou's mansion, she will be regarded as a relative of Wei Ruolan. Ruolan can't treat her as her own, and she will never abuse him.

Although Miss Zhao was noncommittal, her mother had mentioned it, so she always took this matter to heart.

If Wei Ruolan was still young, facing the sudden inquiry from the old lady, he might still be able to say a pale and weak "I don't like my aunt" to the old lady, and then say other things.

But Wei Ruolan is now 11 years old. Not only has she attended a private school and read books, she has also learned a lot of knowledge from Wei Yan's side that is not available in books. She already knows how to describe her feelings.

He tilted his head and thought about the wording, and then said, "It seems that I am not a relative to her, but an enemy who robbed her of something?" After a pause, he shook his head, "It seems inappropriate to say an enemy , but she looked at me with a bit of disgust and hatred."

The old lady was startled, then smiled wryly: "I actually lost my sight."

Fu Li thought about the "face-changing" skill performed by the second girl Zhao before, and comforted the old lady with a smile: "You don't have to belittle yourself, only a thief for a thousand days, how can there be a reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days? Then the second girl Zhao has mental calculations." Wuxin, that is to say, she felt that Lang Geer was young and ignorant, so she lost her vigilance in front of him and showed her true colors. In front of an adult like you, she would never dare to relax a bit, so you It's normal to not notice her abnormality."

As for why Miss Zhao became like that when she faced Wei Ruolan later, it is probably because Wei Ruolan still remembers her behavior when she was a child when she grew up, and has always been quite hostile to her, and she herself has become Because of Wei Yan's coquettish manipulation, half of the chances of marrying into Dingweihou's mansion were cut off, so some things were broken.

After hearing Fu Li's words, the old lady still felt guilty towards Wei Ruolan in her heart, but she felt a little better after all.

The misunderstanding was resolved, and the grudge in Fu Li's heart had disappeared, and her resistance to marrying Wei Xian had basically disappeared, and when she looked at the old lady and the others, her eyes were a little kinder.

Brother Jin seemed to notice Fu Li's attitude, and blinked: "Old lady, why did you like my mother again later?"

Fu Li smiled and patted Brother Jin's head. This kid, at such a young age, actually started to interfere in her mother's marriage. If you don't look at the identities and ages of the two, you don't know, and you think he is yours. What about the elders?

But brother Jin's question was on point, and she didn't say anything to refute it.

Although Wei Yan went to the gate of the Zhao family, directly asked his father-in-law about the marriage of the second daughter Zhao, and said that he could introduce her husband to him, such behavior was considered to have rejected the second daughter Zhao's chance to marry into Dingweihou's mansion.But there is no second girl Zhao, there are other girls!Even if the old lady didn't dare to intervene in Wei Yan's marriage because of Wei Yan's actions, she wouldn't just change her opinion of herself so suddenly, right?

Although both of them are single with their children, this is ancient times, and it is not a big deal for a man to be single with a baby, not to mention that Wei Yan himself is the powerful Marquis of Dingwei, the daughter of the boudoir who wants to marry Wei Yan in the capital does not know How much, on the other hand, although Fu Li is not worried about marriage because of his current wealth, it is too difficult to find a suitable husband with good conditions.

The old lady cast a reproachful glance at Fu Li, her smile was rather helpless: "Ming Jing went to the gate of Zhao's house and said that he wanted to arrange a marriage candidate for the second girl Zhao, and then quickly said that he already had a sweetheart. The woman is not interested, and said that he has informed the emperor, and only waits for him to ask the other party's consent, then he will beg the emperor for a marriage."

"Tell me, once these words come out, which good man's daughter would dare to think of him?"

"Additionally, over the past few years, Ming Jing has not only treated the girls who volunteered to post, but also sent away all the maids in his own room, acting like he is not a womanizer enough," the old lady said with a helpless expression. "It's been a long time, and I can see his feelings for you. Not to mention changing his opinion of you immediately, but at least he won't mind your identity anymore."

Speaking of this, the old lady looked sad, as if thinking of herself.

When she first married Wei Yan's father, she was also full of girlish thoughts, and wanted to be a couple with him for the rest of her life, but not long after she got married, she found that Wei Yan's father had two companions, and she became pregnant later. , the mother-in-law even gave two aunts immediately...

The old lady shook her head. It was hard to say whether she was moved by her son's persistence, or by his steadfastness in his relationship.

Women, after all, are emotional.

"Mingjing is also a smooth climber. After I found out that I no longer reject your existence, I immediately said good things to you. Not only Mingjing, but even Lang Geer who was far away in Bazhou at that time.

Letters, and always mention trivial things related to you in the letters. "

The old lady smiled and touched Lang Ge'er's head, her eyes were loving, and she looked at Fu Li with a little more relief. After all, she didn't have too many demands on her son's marriage, but only hoped that his son's stepmother would It's all about being nice to Lang Geer.Since Fu Li was so kind to Lang Ge'er, and she didn't have the slightest bad intentions depending on the situation, the last resistance in her heart naturally disappeared.

She met Fu Li's eyes with a smile, "What's more, Ming Jing told me later that you are quite capable, you have other arrangements for your child, and you don't care about his title at all..."

Fu Li smiled helplessly: "It's not that I don't like it, it's just that this thing is useless to me."

The old lady looked at her suspiciously: "It's useless?"

Fu Li glanced sideways at Brother Jin, and said with a smile: "There are no titles in this capital, but there are few people who have no real power? With titles, the prosperity and wealth of future generations can be guaranteed, but if you don't Real power, it’s not the same that you can only be calculated and bullied by others? But if you have real power, can you be short of glory and wealth? Besides, with my ability, even if my child does not have a title, he can still enjoy the glory for a lifetime. Even if he has a title, he can only earn it by himself?"

The old lady was stunned, and it took a long time before she said: "But no matter how much gold and silver there are, if there is no power to protect them, wouldn't they just be mermaids?"

In this world, it has never been rare to rely on the power in your hands to seek to seize other people's property.

Fu Li smiled: "Could it be possible to protect the family property if you have no title?"

Without real power, isn't the title just a coveted "fish"?

The old lady couldn't help laughing loudly: "Miss Fu is so young, I didn't expect to think so clearly. But I still don't understand, although this gold and silver can protect the prosperity of your descendants, but if the gold and silver are exhausted, Wouldn't your descendants be beaten back to their original form? But the title is different, even if the gold and silver are exhausted, as long as there is a title, the descendants have the hope of turning around."

She should have followed Fu Li's words so that Fu Li would dismiss the title, so that the title of Marquis of Dingwei would naturally only fall on Lang Ge'er.But the old lady was too curious, so she couldn't hold back and asked this question out of her mouth.

The fact that a title without real power is just a pretense, don't others know?But other people are still fighting for the title, for what?Prosperity and wealth?No, it's what the old lady said, and it can give future generations a time to relax.

Before the end of the title, as long as there is a promising one, then the descendants can enter the center of power again, so as not to fall to the bottom of society.

In this regard, the Wei family is the best example

Although Wei Yan is now the Marquis of Dingwei, he earned this title by himself.The title of the Wei family itself has been passed down to the generation of Mrs. Wei, and there is only one viscount left, and when it is passed on to Wei Yan, there is probably only one first prize left.However, relying on his own ability and the support of the Wei family's previous connections, Wei Yan fought his way through the battlefield and promoted the title that was about to pass down to Marquis. Since then, the Wei family's title It can be passed on for many generations.

Fu Li smiled: "Brother Jin will earn what he wants. As for Brother Jin's descendants... I may be able to see his children, and I may also be able to touch his grandsons, but his son His grandson, his grandson's grandson... What does the future of these people have to do with me?"

At that time, she was all dead, so what did it matter to her whether they lived well or not?

Is it possible that when she is still alive, she will spare no effort to plan for the incompetent descendants who will appear in an unknown number of generations, wipe their ass, and escort them?Tired of living like this?

Furthermore, even with the title of title, can the offspring really be able to arrange the same as themselves, and have a smooth life?

The child has no ability by himself, and no matter how high the title is, he can't keep it.

The titles that the ancestors of the Jia family earned for them are high enough, right?Duke, except for the four kings with different surnames in the southeast and northwest, this is the highest title that can be obtained by a different surname, but in the end, these two families were not the same and their homes were ransacked?

The old lady was stunned for a moment, then laughed helplessly: "You live wantonly."

Fu Li kept looking at the old lady, and he could see a bit of envy from her eyes.Of course, more still like and appreciate.

She was about to speak when the old lady restrained all her expressions and looked at herself seriously: "Miss Fu, you know Ming Jing's intentions. He has already mentioned to us two old men and old women that he wants to marry you." As a wife, I wonder what Madam Fu thinks?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the room turned their heads and looked at Fu Li curiously.

Brother Jin grabbed Fu Li's hand and looked at her eagerly: "Mother, do you want to marry Uncle Wei?"

Fu Li was stunned for a moment, then seriously thought for a moment, then nodded: "I really have this idea."

Now that all previous worries have disappeared, and she herself is interested in Wei Yan, why can't she marry Wei Yan?

The old lady immediately beamed with joy, but before she could speak, she saw Fu Li looking down at Brother Jin: "Brother Jin, do you want Uncle Wei to be your father?"

The old lady held her breath for a moment and looked at Brother Jin worriedly.

Not only the old lady, but even Wei Ruolan and the other people serving in the room turned their attention to Brother Jin.

Some people couldn't help muttering that they only heard about asking their parents for their opinions on whether to marry or not, but they had never seen anyone asking their children's opinions.Could it be that Mrs. Fu still refuses this best marriage if Brother Jin disagrees?

Brother Jin didn't care about other people's eyes, but still looked at Fu Li, enduring the sadness in his heart that his mother would be snatched away by others, and asked: "What if I don't agree with Uncle Wei to be my father?"

The old lady and Wei Ruolan were suffocated, their hearts were raised high, and they couldn't put it down no matter what.

The two stared at Fu Li, very worried that Fu Li would say something he didn't want to hear.

Fu Li thought for a while and said, "Then you won't let Uncle Wei be your father."

Brother Jin was curious: "Why?"

Fu Li smiled, "Just as Lang Geer is more important to your Uncle Wei, you are naturally the most important to me."

Wei Ruolan couldn't help but stare, he is the most important to his father?Why doesn't he know it himself?Obviously in the eyes of his father, Aunt Fu is much more important than him.

Brother Jin seemed to have received some guarantee, his eyes narrowed into a slit when he smiled.After a while, he stopped laughing and began to think seriously: "Mother, do you like Uncle Wei?"

Fu Li patted his head: "If I don't like it, I won't marry him. Brother Jin and I can live a good life, there is no reason to marry, isn't there?"

Brother Jin smiled, nodded and said, "Then I agree to let Uncle Wei be my father."

Fu Li froze for a moment, then laughed loudly: "You!"

"In this case, then I will send someone to find a matchmaker immediately, and then ask someone to count it as an auspicious day?" The old lady was taken aback by Brother Jin's reply.

Ke can't wait to settle the marriage quickly, and doesn't want other changes to affect this marriage.

Fu Li didn't expect the old lady to be so eager, but after thinking about it, he still nodded in agreement.

Since she had already agreed to get married, the sooner the preparations for the marriage, the better.

but……

"Let's talk to Mr. Wei?" Fu Li said with a smile, "This is his lifelong event after all. He can't wait until the auspicious days are fixed before he knows he's going to get married, right?"

The old lady waved her hand in disgust: "He wished to marry you as soon as possible, why would he care about such a trivial matter."

Fu Li couldn't help laughing, but didn't say anything more.

Although the marriage has been settled, the ancient wedding ceremony is cumbersome, after all, it is not as convenient as it is in modern times. It will take at least half a year to complete the three books and six rituals.If a more particular family wants to keep their daughter at home for a few more years, it is not uncommon for them to go for two or three years.

However, Wei Yan and Fu Li are already a bit old in the eyes of people of this era, so naturally there will be no delay in the ceremony.

But even so, marriage is not an overnight success.

Therefore, Fu Li usually asks people to start preparing the dowry, while continuing to be busy with his own career.

Early this morning, she knocked on the door of the fourth prince's mansion with a gift

After several years of experience, the fourth prince has changed from a bald prince to a prince because of his outstanding achievements, and his status has become more and more lofty.

The concierge took Fu Li's greeting card and quickly went in to report.

Soon, a nanny came out and welcomed Fu Li into the gate of the Fourth Prince's Mansion.

Although it was just a door-to-door visit, the Fourth Prince's status was noble, and the rules of the house were even more complicated. Fu Li didn't even hesitate, and left Brother Jin at home.So this time, Fu Li only brought Aunt Tian with him.

On the way, the servants of the Fourth Prince's Mansion saw Fu Li's outstanding appearance and well-dressed clothes, and couldn't help but cast their eyes on her, even couldn't help guessing her identity in their hearts, and came up with countless charming thoughts.

But seeing that her aura seemed unusual, and it was the concubine's confidant nanny who came out to greet her, so they stopped all kinds of guesses and quickly looked away.

Fu Li raised his eyebrows, the quality of the servants of the Four Princes' Palace is quite good.

Thinking of the various descriptions about the fourth concubine that Wei Yan mentioned earlier, she couldn't help feeling a little curious.

Soon, a group of people came to an exquisite courtyard.

The nanny brought the two of them to the door and turned to look at Fu Li: "Miss Fu, this is the courtyard of the princess. Please wait a moment where you are, before the servant goes in and tells the princess."

Fu Li nodded, obediently staying where he was.

Soon, Nanny came out again and welcomed Fu Li in.

The Fourth Prince's Concubine is a woman who is not particularly good-looking, but has a graceful and luxurious temperament. She can tell her status is unusual at a glance, and her expression is quite serious, which seems not to be offended.

But after seeing Fu Li, a smile soon appeared on her face, and before Fu Li saluted, she pointed to a chair and said, "Miss Fu, please sit down."

After Fu Li sat down, the fourth princess smiled and said: "I heard that Mrs. Fu has come to the capital, and I have been thinking about when I can see you. It's just that you have only come to Beijing not long ago. I think you have a lot of things to do. So I haven't handed you an invitation, I hope Mrs. Fu will not blame you."

Fu Li's heart skipped a beat. Fortunately, she heard Wei Yan's suggestion and came to visit the Fourth Prince's Mansion as soon as she finished her work. Otherwise, she might not have a good impression of herself in the Fourth Prince's heart just waiting for the Fourth Princess to invite her to visit.

She quickly shook her head and said: "It is an honor for a woman to enter the gate of the Fourth Prince's Mansion."

The fourth princess shook her head, as if she didn't agree with Fu Li's words, but she didn't argue with Fu Li, but talked about another topic: "Speaking of which, I have heard of you several years ago, whether it is beets or Potatoes, or peppers and peanuts are all good things that are beneficial to the country and the people. Because you don't hide your selfishness, the people of Daxia have been much better than before. With such credit, even if you call you a heroine Too much."

Fu Li hurriedly saluted: "My concubine praises you, this is what a woman should do, and I don't deserve such a compliment from you."

The fourth concubine smiled and waved her hands: "What you do is a great thing, what's the point of just praising you? At that time, the potato seeds were only transported to Beijing, and when I knew that the person who presented the potatoes was you, I would just give it to you." I want to meet you very much. When I learned about peppers and beets, and later peanuts and sweet potatoes, my curiosity about you has reached its peak. If I hadn’t left the capital as a princess, I’m afraid I would have been able to ride a fast horse at that time. Ma ran to the Bazhou government to see you."

After finishing speaking, the eyes of the fourth princess fell on Fu Li's face, with a bit of curiosity and joy.

Fu Li really didn't know how to answer Wang Hao's words, so he simply remained silent.

"I was thinking about what the woman who has made so much contribution to Great Xia looks like. Will she have three heads and six arms like Nezha? Or maybe she will look like the Nine Heavens Xuannv, not like a mortal," the fourth princess haha Laughing loudly, "I didn't expect to grow up to look like you."

Fu Li was taken aback for a moment, but couldn't help laughing: "The woman let the princess down."

"No, no, no," the fourth princess quickly denied, "Although you seem to be no different from ordinary people, but you are so beautiful, you are already extraordinary, I am not disappointed at all."

To be honest, Fu Li was actually a little embarrassed.

Even if it's just an ordinary person blowing rainbow farts in front of Fu Li, she can't fully enjoy it, not to mention the noble status of the fourth princess, it really makes her feel a little strange to say such words.

But because of the sincerity in the eyes of the fourth princess, she didn't think much about it, she just felt uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the Fourth Princess quickly sensed Fu Li's discomfort, and simply changed the subject: "Ms. Fu will not leave again when she enters Beijing this time, right?"

Fu Li was a little puzzled, looked up at the fourth princess, shook his head and said: "I really don't plan to leave the capital at the moment, but my business is all over the place, so I may not live in the capital forever."

The fourth concubine was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Can't you entrust other people to take care of your business?"

Worried about Fu Li's misunderstanding, she added, "You spread too much, and it's not easy to do everything yourself. If so, even if you have three heads and six arms, it's not enough at all. It's better to find a few trustworthy people to help you out." Running errands, it’s better for you to sit in the back by yourself. I used to do business like you and wanted to do everything by myself, but then the stall was too big and I couldn’t leave the capital, so I had to learn to let go, and then I fumbled I found a reasonable method, but I think it is more convenient, and now I even entrust many of the businesses in the capital to my confidants."
