"Since you all listen to me, it's easy," Fu Shan said seriously, "I've always been very accurate in seeing people. Xianglian is a good boy, and I'm satisfied if you two are together well." He sighed softly as he spoke. He said, "I'm getting old, and it's really not suitable for me to be with you young people. At most, after next spring, I'm going to travel far away, because I have something important to do. This trip, at least for a year or two, It's rare to come back. I was thinking, when I come back, I can preside over the wedding for you."

Listening to his tone of voice, Chu Ying always felt weird. A young man in his thirties is in the prime of his life, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is in full bloom.Could it be that he had a bunch of disciples and grandchildren at a young age, and that's why he felt emotional and said these old-fashioned words?

Seeing that Xiuying was just funny, Fu Shan didn't know what she was thinking, so he said again: "Whenever I mentioned this to Xianglian, he was ashamed and annoyed at other times; you are fine, just like a normal person; what are you thinking?" ? If you say you blindly dislike him, that’s not necessarily the case, I think you treat him a little differently; tell me, what do you think?”

There is no way for Xiu Ying to talk about the entanglement between the two, so she smiled lightly: "Then what does the master think I should react? I am shy? Answer? The master should know that I am not such a person, and I am not easy to put on. Let's talk , It is a natural law that men and women marry, multiply and prosper, so many generations have come here, so what is there to be ashamed of?"

Fu Shan was startled, and only then realized that the girl in front of him, who had just turned 13, was so calm and mature that it was frightening.Her words and deeds are not like what she should have at her age, but it seems that she has gone through so many ways of the world.He intends to inquire, but he doesn't know where to start, but doubts already exist in his heart.It seems that he also needs to discuss this matter with Xianglian in detail.

After all, why didn't he treat Liu Xianglian like a child?Liu Xianglian lost her father since she was a child, and has a paranoid personality, but it is obvious that now he has restrained his likes and dislikes, and gradually understands that he needs to use some means to pursue what he deserves; Zhang Tai has changed a lot because of his reckless behavior.

Speaking of Liu Xianglian, he was originally from the Liu family in Hedong. This is a big family that has lasted for thousands of years and experienced several ups and downs.Liu Xianglian's great-grandfather, Liu Min, also came from the army. Because he was good at wielding mandarin ducks and double knives, and was good at riding and shooting bows and horses, he later made remarkable achievements with the command of Qingqi.Later, due to the meritorious deeds of many lifetimes, the Liu family's title did not fall but rose, and the food and wealth doubled. In the end, Uncle Liu Xianglian's generation was still the Marquis of succession.Normally, without accumulated military merits, the next generation can only be downgraded to the rank of a noble, but that is still a count, and for most people, it is still a sweet pastry.

Liu Qinghou of this generation originally had two sons, but who knew that when they were about to grow up, they died unexpectedly one after another. Therefore, the hereditary title is likely to be taken away because of childlessness, so he must adopt a nephew in the family to inherit the title. .

As his nephew, Liu Xianglian was originally the most qualified to claim the title, but his parents died since he was a child, and he was left alone, and the sons of the uncles above were all staring at this title.Although these cousins ​​are not of high birth, they are all older than him, and they have parents and relatives to help plan; and although Liu Xianglian is the only remaining descendant of the direct descendants, no one regards him as his own, except for the aunt who is also descended from the direct descendants. thing.

As for Uncle Hou Ye, although he does not say that he is old and stupid, but he has many nephews and nephews, and everyone deliberately rejects and slanders him. He sometimes thinks of this nephew, and only hears people say that he can't study well, is idle, and is used to advocating with comedians. As a young man, my uncle also thought that he was useless and could not be used, so he no longer bothered to control him, and only asked people not to reduce his expenses.

Liu Xianglian was not taught and controlled since she was a child, so she didn't care about the intrigues in these big families.But when he was older and more sensible, and often hang out with Feng Ziying, Wei Ruolan, Qiu Luan, Shi Yu and other aristocratic children, he gradually understood his situation in the family.In the past, he didn't take these things very seriously, and he still went his own way.But ever since he met Xiu Ying and accompanied her to Suiyang, this young man has gradually started to have some thoughts; and what touched him the most was the words of Xu Ying's grandmother Xu.

He can ignore what others think of him, but this old man has a prejudice against him, and he feels that the matter is very serious, especially when he heard Xiuying tell his grandmother that marriages are all decided by the old man.And Mrs. Xu had already clearly expressed her dissatisfaction with him, and the reason for her dissatisfaction, he also knew that besides the unknown future, there were also bad temperament and frivolity.He didn't know why the old man formed such a stereotyped impression of him.But he understands that for Xiu Ying, these people are the family members she relies on, she is willing to pay for them, and she will take their feelings into consideration.

He couldn't figure it out at first.Because in his opinion, it is good to be alone, and family members are actually dispensable, so why bother to care about their feelings?

After asking others for advice, he finally understood a little bit, so he has been thinking of ways, trying to make his grandmother, Yuan Xu, and even the younger brothers and sisters in the Xiuying family change their views on him, and let them know that he also has a future. , with ambition, but what he wants to do is hidden, and the process of doing things needs to be low-key and cautious, so as to achieve his goal and get what he wants.Therefore, not only them, but even Chu Ying, it is impossible for him to tell her exactly what he is doing.

It's just because what he's doing now has both danger and opportunity. If he wants to get what he wants, he will always have to pay a price.

As for Mrs. You in the capital, it didn't matter. Liu Xianglian could see clearly that she couldn't decide anything about Chu Ying. Chu Ying probably only had disgust and hatred for her.

After returning from the same boat that day, Xiuying got off the boat first and did not say hello to him. He was very angry because he accompanied Xiuying all the way back and forth. The cousin who came out, she was angry with herself; it was nothing more than anger, she actually put on a posture of ignoring him from now on; friends knew his intentions, and knew what he had done. After such a somersault, he even started to make fun of him!

Unable to withstand their instigation, Liu Xianglian also wanted to hang her out for a few days.But after only one day, he was like scratching his heart with claws, he couldn't sleep well all night, and he always felt that something was not at ease.After much deliberation, he still decided to obey his own will and come to Xuying to explain.

After his own affairs were arranged, he came to the pharmacy in the name of visiting his master.When he came, Xiuying was coming back from the Princess Mansion, and she was sleeping soundly after a night of exhaustion. Yuan Xu knew that Liu Xianglian was the escort for her sister's trip to Beijing, and she was very grateful, so she entertained him warmly.Liu Xianglian told Yuan Xu and her master what happened to her in Beijing this time, and only then did the family know that everything Xiuying did was to completely get rid of You Shi's control, and to take better care of the people here. family.How difficult it is for a young girl to stumble forward in such a world!

In fact, during the few days when Chu Ying shuttled between the princess mansion and her home, Liu Xianglian was also busy with her affairs.Hearing that her shop was going to be taken back, and wanted to find another place, he immediately asked people to inquire everywhere; after knowing that Chu Ying had come to seek help from his sixth uncle, he hurriedly reserved a suitable shop under his name; Well, she definitely doesn't want it, so she can only help her secretly, so that she doesn't have to spend too much energy and thought on finding a store.As for the second sister's marriage that Xiu Ying was worried about, he had already arranged it, including asking about the second sister's fiancé's house, and even intimidating and coaxing him to write a divorce document; Speaking of which, Xiuying also has an older sister who is said to be ten times more beautiful than her, but she has the reputation of retiring her engagement, so it is difficult to find her husband's family.The reason for retiring the engagement was not that she disliked the poor and loved the rich, but because the man was very unbearable, and Xiuying couldn't bear to see her sister being wronged.

Chen Jing is not a pedantic person, of course he doesn't mind this kind of thing; it's just that he is a little curious, he is more beautiful than his younger sister, could this older sister be a fairy?

Of course, Chen Jing is a person who has seen the world after all, so he didn't say much; on the one hand, he wants to believe what he sees; on the other hand, he needs to know why such a good thing happened to him. He wanted to know more about this family.

Therefore, Liu Xianglian's changes and sacrifices in secret are far more than what outsiders can see.

Naturally, Xiu Ying didn't know about these things, but Fu Shan, as a master, saw them all; this was one of the reasons why he decided to leave, hoping to let the two children get along more; After confessing, Fu Shan felt that he had to leave.But before he left, he still wanted to tell Xiu Ying all these things. He knew that it was obviously inappropriate for Liu Xianglian to say these things by himself, and it seemed to be showing merit.As for what Liu Xianglian is doing now and how to do it, it is confidential and related to the power change of the imperial court, it is really inconvenient for him to talk to Xuan Ying.

Xuan Ying was so stunned that she remained silent for a long time after Fu Shan finished speaking.Fu Shan saw that she didn't respond, so he asked her: "Why, don't you even believe what I said? I said earlier that he is very good, but he just failed to teach; you are a sensible person, of course you should know that a person like him It's really not easy to make these changes for one person. Of course, he didn't ask me to say these things; if he knew that I said everything, I'm afraid he would be annoyed! It's just that in my opinion Come on, you are really a match made in heaven, there is no need to cause a bigger misunderstanding for some small things."

After hearing this, Su Ying's mood became more complicated.

On the one hand, she was still a little brooding over Fu Shan's explicit rejection; of course, she wasn't sad, nor was she troubled by love, it was just a sense of frustration that she wanted to do something but couldn't do it; On the other hand, she really didn't think about what Liu Xianglian did for her, so she felt mixed feelings for a while.

Ever since she understood her situation, maybe it was a fateful entanglement, Liu Xianglian has been dangling in front of her eyes all the time.It would be false to say that she has no feelings for him at all; but more often than not, she naturally has a kind of resistance to him, an idea of ​​trying to keep him away, she thinks like this, and she has been doing it all the time.

And the consequence of doing this is that two people who can get along well, but inexplicably continue to misunderstand and hurt each other. Up to now, they think they know each other very well. In fact, there are many things they don't know. Lack of getting along, lack of communication, and lack of real spiritual communication, they still have a long way to go.

She also knew that among the men in the Red Mansion, apart from his extreme temper, Liu Xianglian was actually a responsible man. He was bold and loyal, sincere to his friends, good-natured, and not promiscuous; Same good skin.Although Xiu Ying also knew that character was important, but if she really wanted her to find a good guy, she probably wouldn't want to.

In fact, up to now, she has already figured it out that how things develop is only her own choice; the Buddha said that one thought of heaven and one thought of hell probably meant this.On the boat back to Jinling, she had already finished talking to Liu Xianglian about the entanglement between the two of them. She didn't know what Liu Xianglian would think, but she had already made up her mind, and everything went with the flow, and she did not reject getting along with Liu Xianglian. .

She is not Third Sister You, but she has to live as Third Sister You, so she can only accept everything about her; her arrival seems to have changed the fate of some people, including herself.But what about my sister?

Sister, she was originally a beautiful and gentle girl, if it wasn't for Zheng Shi's deliberate instigation, how could she not distinguish between right and wrong, be so confused and degenerate to such an extent?Although she is as weak as a silk flower, she also has the determination to die. How do you know that she will not live well in another environment?

Thinking of this, Xiu Ying decided to put her own affairs aside, anyway, she is still young, and she is not in a hurry.The most important thing now is of course my sister's affairs, after all my sister is already 15 years old; if Xiuying can't get her out of the wolf den in Ningguo Mansion in time, the consequences will be disastrous.

"When the princess is full moon, the shops on Sishui Street should be on the right track, so please ask Master to go to Kyoto again with me, but the weather should be very cold at that time; Yin Rong and Du Zhong seem to get along well, I heard Grandma said that Eucommia entrusted someone to find out what we wanted a few days ago; Yinrong only said that she was reluctant to leave, and I wanted to simply return the deed to her and hire her to work in the shop, so that the two of them would still be together ;Besides, because the shop is cheap this time, I bought another one across the street, planning to open another spice shop; I heard that the spices are selling well, and the profit is also very considerable.”

Thinking of the origin of the cheap shop, Xiuying wanted to laugh, but she still discussed with Fu Shan in a serious manner, "I used to know that they had sea ships at my uncle's house. Cousin Huai told me about them. How many did they have?" Spices are very cheap on those islands, but once they arrive on our land, the price will be ten times and a hundred times higher; I can find a way to ask my cousin to help me bring some goods."

Seeing that Fu Shan didn't seem to understand, she explained again: "Last time, the Zheng family sent someone to help with the accounts. It seems that it's because the mother remarried with a surname You. They thought it was profitable, so they came up again. ;As for driving me out of Jinling, it may be my powerful aunt who is worried about her precious son when she hears that I am still here alone; in addition, my mother just wants to arrest me by her side, Didn't the two just hit it off? That's why they came together to sell the shop and land. Unfortunately, I can't fulfill their wish!" She laughed again, "Not only can't fulfill their wish, but I also have a surprise for me. How about them!"
