wicked immortal

The three bosses are very talkative, but the mother and daughter rarely talk, their expressions are very melancholy, and they seem to be preoccupied. Occasionally, the two of them will whisper and do not join in the chatting of the passengers. Even if they were eating during the trip, the mother and daughter rarely talked, sitting in the car as if they were transparent.

As for the old man who went to relatives, he didn't seem to be very tall, and he was drowsy all day long. On this hot day, he had to put a sour towel on his shriveled chest when he slept. Can survive to Heishui City.

During the chat, Zhao Yuan noticed some words of the spar merchant, and only then did he know that the grades of spar are not two kinds of low-quality spar and top-grade spar, but also several grades. , and the size of the grade directly affects the price of the spar.

The journey is too far away, everyone is very lonely, and Zhao Yuan will occasionally chat with them.

Soon, after ten days or so, everyone seemed to be familiar with each other, and even the mother and daughter who were shy of strangers would talk occasionally.

In a few occasional sentences, Zhao Yuan realized that the mother and daughter were originally a well-off family. Later, several pillars of the family fell ill and died one after another. When the child was young, he had engaged a baby girl, so he sold the house as travel expenses, went to his in-laws, and arranged the marriage by the way.

Looking at the mother and daughter, Qi Qiran, Zhao Yuan was inexplicably sad. He thought of Baihualou, He Zixiong, and He Ling.At the beginning, their Zhao family also made a baby marriage with the He family. If the family did not undergo drastic changes, then He Ling might have married into the Zhao family by now.

The girl was about sixteen or seventeen years old. Although she looked frail, she was also beautiful and beautiful. Presumably, this marriage should not be difficult, but the mother and daughter were still uneasy.

Slowly, Zhao Yuan gradually realized that after the mother and daughter paid the travel expenses, they were already penniless and panicked, for fear that their in-laws would reject the marriage, otherwise, they would end up living on the streets.

After asking again, Zhao Yuan found out that the marriage was arranged when the girl was born. Later, the family moved to Heishui City, and there was no contact after that. The mother and daughter just heard that the in-law's family is already one of the best in Heishui City. It's a big family.

It seems that this marriage is also a bit suspenseful. After all, things are different, and time has changed. At that time, the parents of both parties may have just joked about it for a while. It has been more than ten years, and they may have forgotten it long ago, or the man has been married long ago.

In the Great Qin Empire, one is considered an adult at the age of 15, and can get married after performing the adult ceremony. The richer the family, the earlier they get married. On the contrary, some ordinary people usually get married around the age of 20.

There is another problem that is very fatal. The girl's body is very weak, and she looks sickly.

In general, as long as the family is slightly better, when marrying a daughter-in-law, they attach great importance to the health of the daughter-in-law. Some wealthy families have strict requirements on height, chest and buttocks, because those data can be used as the basis for good fertility.

In some demanding big families, the requirements for the daughter-in-law are even higher, and they will even track down whether the woman's family has genetic diseases and so on.

The mother and daughter seemed to be aware of this, and they were anxious. The girl was under a lot of pressure and became more and more haggard.

At noon today, we happened to arrive at a post station for dinner, and everyone discussed to rest for a while, avoiding the most vicious sun at noon.After getting out of the car, the mother and daughter sat in the corner with their heads down, preoccupied.

"Xiao Cui, sit here, I'll order you something delicious." Zhao Yuan greeted the girl. During this time, he already knew that the girl's name was Xiao Cui.

The fare of this black-covered carriage is [-] imperial coins. Although meals are included, the food is not very good, and it is just to fill the stomach, and has nothing to do with the quality.Businessmen want to make money when they are away from home, as long as they can eat enough, no one cares about it, even the few wealthy bosses can make do with it.

Of course, if you are really greedy, you can also add a few dishes yourself. During this period of time, Zhao Yuan and the bosses will add a few dishes to eat together. He didn't eat the dishes they added. Every time he ate, he put some dishes on the table and ate them beside him. After eating in a hurry, he returned to the stuffy carriage.

"We... have no money..." Xiao Cui looked at Zhao Yuan timidly.

"Come here, it's okay, Brother Yuan has money." Zhao Yuan smiled.

"No." Xiaocui secretly glanced at her mother beside her.

"Auntie, Xiaocui's health is too bad, she must eat better, otherwise, the weather is hot and the journey is far away, I'm afraid..." Zhao Yuan walked to Xiaocui's mother.

"Xiao Zhao...we...we don't have extra money to eat..." Xiaocui's mother looked sad.

"It's okay. Although Xiao Zhao doesn't have much money, he can still afford a few meals. We don't want to do anything else. Let's raise Xiao Cui until the time comes. When the time comes, it will be better for me to meet my in-laws. They think we're going to defect."

"I understand the truth, but..." Xiao Cui's mother hesitated to speak.

"Auntie, it's okay. Xiao Zhao also has a younger sister, who is as well-behaved as Xiao Cui. Today, I just want to be Xiao Zhao's younger sister. For Xiao Cui's future, Auntie must not refuse."

"Then...then thank you Xiao Zhao, if Xiaocui can successfully marry into the Qiu family, we..."

"Auntie Xiao Zhao just thinks that Xiaocui is very similar to my sister, petite and weak, so cute, don't mention anything else."

……

For several days in a row, Zhao Yuan would order some nutritious and healthy appetizers for Xiao Cui every meal. When passing through some big towns, Zhao Yuan bought some clothes and cosmetics for Xiao Cui, and told Xiao Cui some basic etiquette of rich families. etc.

Those merchants also seemed to see that Zhao Yuan was helping Xiao Cui, and after they got to know each other well, they would take care of Xiao Cui, let Xiao Cui eat and sleep well, and even the two drivers would avoid long journeys and try to rest as much as possible just rest.

In just ten days, Xiaocui has obviously improved, her haggard face has become rounded, and her eyes have become lively.

Under Zhao Yuan's teaching, Xiaocui behaved decently, and when she sat quietly on the chair, she showed everyone's demeanor, which made several businessmen amazed.

Xiaocui's mother was also aware of Xiaocui's change, and was very pleasantly surprised.

When Xiaocui's mother was pleasantly surprised, she also asked Zhao Yuan for some etiquette.

"Xiaocui, you have to remember that at any time, you must not be surprised by favor or humiliation. Don't pretend to understand for the sake of face, because if you don't understand, no one will laugh at you. After all, a person's learning ability is limited, and it is impossible to understand. Every piece of knowledge, but if you pretend to know what you don’t know, it will make people laugh.”
