Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 476 Ordinary Desires (Part [-])
Ji Wuyan looked at Ning Xiuyuan with his chin resting on his shoulders, and his eyes, which were close at hand, were full of tiny light, with a smile.

"Why bother to talk about her like that, the girl... wants to save face." Although the words were so consoling, there was a strong smile in his eyes, and he asked narrowly, "Do you mind?"

"Yeah." Ning Xiuyuan nodded, "At this time, I'm still restless, and I'm still trying to sow discord... It seems that a marriage decree is not enough, and I have to find more beautiful concubines for Chen Jiahui, so that she won't be idle all day thinking about coming to your place to make trouble."

The rare childishness was also really rushed.

"It's just a clown..." Ji Wuyan smiled, "She can't take advantage of me... Besides, she is going to marry the Chen family, and I think it's very boring. Let her just say a few words. The Chen family...is not a good place to go."

Even though she is the honorable princess, the entire Chen family has to treat her like a guest on the surface, and the treatment of those innocent women and children will not happen to her.But now the old patriarch of the Chen family still controls the right to speak, and Chen Jiahui can't help him. He can do nothing, eat, drink and have fun, but he can't do serious things.

It's hard to say what the future of the Chen family will be like.

Ning Xiuyuan had no interest in the Chen family, and the marriage offering was just a casual mention to him, and now he was not interested in talking about it, so he just changed the subject and asked, "Brother Chu, did you go out so early in the weather?"People have already beaten them out with sticks.

"Yeah." Ji Wuyan nodded, "When he first came to Yanjing City, he always had to take care of some of his properties. In addition to the big gift you gave him, he is now very satisfied, and his mind is probably full of his own rich and invincible appearance..." After finishing speaking, he smiled with bright eyes and bright teeth.

The imperial businessman Ning Xiuyuan invited was a gift to Ji Wuyan on the surface, but in fact it was a big gift to Shangguan Chu, the future uncle. If not, how could he have dared to come to beg for wine that night with only Ning Xiuren's private seal?
Ji Wuyan is a lazy person, and she prefers to settle down rather than expand her territory. The matter of the imperial business is too much of a headache for her. In the end, it is just a name, and the real management should be handed over to Shangguan Chulai. She is the one who reaps the benefits.Speaking of this, Ji Wuyan was a little surprised, "Early this morning, my elder brother came to me and asked for someone, saying that he didn't bring anyone with me, but wanted an assistant. I wanted to let Ziqiu go over, but Luo Xin agreed... I was a little surprised."

If it were someone else, Ji Wuyan might still suspect that the drunkard's intentions were not in drinking, but it was Shen Luoxin... this woman who was so transparent about certain things that she seemed ready to put on cassock and escape into Buddhism at any time.

"Brother Chu's face..." Ning Xiuyuan was silent for a moment before he commented pertinently, "It's beyond the reach of ordinary people. Miss Luo Xin is just an ordinary person after all, and it's normal to have some ordinary desires."

The phrase "seeing beauty" is so beautiful and refined by him.

It's just that Ji Wuyan still subconsciously felt that the possibility was unlikely, but she thought that it would be good if Shen Luoxin could become her sister-in-law in the end.Jiangnan is not as sensitive as Yanjing City. The people in Jiangnan are not so sensitive to the status and errands. In addition, his elder brother is in business, so those official entertainments can naturally be avoided.Although his grandfather was a little conservative, but with him around, Shen Luoxin could completely live in Yunzhou with him... It really is the best of both worlds.

Thinking in this way, Ji Wuyan became more and more interested in matching, and ordered the concierge to wait carefully, and when Miss Shen came back, let her come over to him.

It's just that they didn't expect it, the two of them went out early in the morning and didn't come back until dinner time.After dinner and washing, when Ji Wuyan was resting by the window and drying her hair, Shen Luoxin walked in quickly out of breath, and while drinking a cup of tea, asked Ji Wuyan carelessly, "When I came back, the concierge said you were looking for me...what's the matter?"

"Are you... elder brother withholding your tea outside?"

"That's not true." Shen Luoxin poured herself another cup. The tea in Ji Wuyan's room is generally just the right temperature. It won't be too hot to drink, and it won't be cold and bitter. She drank another cup and finally calmed down. She explained, "I didn't care about it myself. I didn't feel thirsty when I was busy before, but now I feel thirsty when I rest."

"Have you had dinner yet?"

"No, I just ate a piece of dim sum, but I don't have much appetite... Do you have porridge? Just some porridge and side dishes. If you don't have any, you don't have to make it."

Ziqiu was about to come in to make the bed, and said with a smile, "Yes. It's warming on the stove, porridge with preserved egg and minced meat... When Mr. Chu went out, he specially told the dining room to prepare it, saying that he would come back late tonight. The dining room heard that Miss Shen was going with her, so he made more... The servant will bring it."

As he said that, he turned around and walked out, muttering with a smile while walking, "I didn't think so, Miss Shen and Mr. Chu thought of going together, and they hit it off quite well."

But it's just a coincidence.

Ji Wuyan leaned against the window, put one hand on the window sill, and asked seemingly casually, "Is today going well? Once my brother gets busy, he probably won't take care of you. It's hard work, isn't it?" Both caring and explaining for Shangguan Chu.

Although my elder brother looks a little out of place and indecorous on weekdays, when it comes to business matters, he has always been more serious and modest than anyone else. Ji Wuyan has witnessed his elder brother scolding a girl under his command.From then on, the recruiter never dared to recruit a girl again... for fear of being scolded by a stern and selfless master who didn't understand pity and pity, so that he would commit suicide.

Ji Wuyan has always felt that Shangguan Chu has such a unique skin, but there is no girl chasing after him in these years, probably because of his unforgiving mouth.

To use Ning Xiuren's words - she is obviously beautiful, elegant, and elegant, but she is not pleasing to the eye.

It doesn't matter if you don't please others, but Shen Luoxin is the candidate for Ji Wuyan's sister-in-law. In order to have a more pleasant chat tonight, before getting straight to the point, she naturally wants to say something nice for her brother.Thinking of this, she said again, "If you offend me, don't worry about it."

Shen Luoxin didn't hear the subtext, so she just waved her hands, and said carelessly, "There is nothing to offend. After all, I have to thank your brother. I have learned a lot from following him today! He is a very good teacher. I misunderstood him before."
