My whole family is punching cards in the farming article to survive

Less than two days before the banquet, Du Yuan came to visit Meiberry privately with gifts.

Although some people came to visit before, Mayberry was pushed back because she felt unwell.

As soon as he heard it was Du Yuan, and then remembered the news about the Du family that Jiajiu and the others found out yesterday, Mei Bei immediately chose to meet him.

At the banquet that day, Mei Bei was still thinking about why the Du family fled when King Wei's army entered Xuanzhou. Later, she learned that the Du family had not defected to King Wei.

However, it was a branch of the Du family that took refuge.
In the end, the direct branch knew that the requirement for the side branches to join them was to "right up" them and become the main branch of the Du family. So if they didn't run away, they would be left with nothing to do and serve as an example for other people with the same wolfish ambitions?

As for why the Du family branch dares to do this, there is also an important reason. The head of the Du family's direct branch has two brothers in total, but the descendants of the two brothers are currently only the head's only daughter.

After this incident, the head of the family died when the direct descendants fled to Sangzi Prefecture, leaving only his younger brother and his daughter.

And this Du Yuan is the younger brother of the family head.

But Mei Bei was curious. It was said that Du Yuan had never gotten married, let alone having children.

When Meiberry knew this, she had to say that the head of the family was really good.

Although Mei Bei doesn't know her daughter's condition, judging from the younger brother's behavior, he was raised well by his older brother. He is now in his 30s, and his personality still has a youthful attitude.

Love and hate are clear.

During this meeting, she directly talked to Du Yuan about what she had promised that day, and told Du Yuan what she had said at King Wei's banquet.

Listening to Mei Bei embarrassing King Wei, and mocking the royal family for dragging down the people of the world with their messy worries, and asking others to help explain their shameless behavior, Du Yuan felt happy and at the same time felt that Mei Bei was too aggressive. .

stunned!

"Does Xiang Jun also think that it is okay for women to interfere in government affairs today?"

"what?"

Meiberry didn't expect that Du Yuan would ask this question in the end.

And the other party didn't even use the identity word "Queen Mother", he just talked about women.

Mei Mei tilted her head and looked at Du Yuan, stared at him carefully for a while, and suddenly asked: "What does Shopkeeper Du think about the future property of the Du family being handed over to his niece?"

"That was what my elder brother worked hard for Weiwei. It should belong to Weiwei."

"Oh, then business is the same as government. Women can do business, so of course they can participate in politics."

"This...these two are not the same, right?"

Du Yuan felt that it was childish for Mei Pei to confuse women's business and political participation.

But Mei Bei said: "If women are not allowed to speak up in the court, then how many women among the people will be able to show their voices?"

When Mei Bei asked, Du Yuan lowered his head and said nothing, thinking carefully about Mei Bei's words.

"You took your niece under the care of the Gu family in Sangzi Prefecture. Come to think of it, when you see Sister Gulan, you also think that your niece can support the Du family like Gulan, right?"

Du Yuan nodded slowly, but then shook his head. Under Mei Berry's puzzled gaze, Du Yuan sighed again and said, "Wei Wei is not as decisive as Gu Lan."

Originally he wanted to say "spicy", but he realized the intimate taste of what Meiberry had just called Lone Lan, so he changed his words when it came to his mouth.

Mei Bei heard Du Yuan's admiration and fear of Gulan, and asked again: "Does Sister Gulan have a bad reputation in Sangzi Prefecture?"

Du Yuan did not deny this.

"Actually, you can look at it from another perspective. If Sister Gulan was a man and she did all this, do you think her reputation would be as bad as it is now?"

Losing his wife, reorganizing the family business, suppressing ambitious side branches, raising concubines...

All of this does not seem to be inconsistent with a man.

"will not."

Du Yuan answered this question without thinking.

"Yes, sometimes a woman is slandered not because she has done something wrong, but because she did it as a woman. The situation in Sangzi Prefecture is not very stable now, and there are people in the prefecture who want to challenge Wei Wang surrendered, and Xuanzhou outside the state was eyeing him, but the lonely family joined forces to win over more people who could potentially cooperate.

Why do you think that is? "

Du Yuan met Mei Berry's bright eyes. He couldn't understand some of the brilliance in her eyes, but he thought that part of it must be for her, Gulan herself.

"Everyone actually has selfish motives. Sister Gulan is willing to cooperate with us, but it is actually for herself."

Meiberry opened her mouth and pointed at Du Yuan.

Du Yuan vaguely thought of something in his mind: "She is doing it for herself...then, can we cooperate with Weiwei..."

"It's not cooperation."

Suddenly, Mei Bei opened his mouth to remind Du Yuan.

"With the current strength of your Du family, it shouldn't be called cooperation with us, right?"

After Mei Bei finished speaking, Du Yuan's face suddenly turned ugly.

"What Xiangjun means is..."

"I want your Du family to do something for me. It will be done in the future and it will be beneficial to your niece Du Yuwei without any harm."

Mei Bei is talking about Du Yuwei here, not the Du family.

Du Yuan was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashing with struggle.

Seeing him like this, Mei Bei wanted to let him go back and think about it later, without telling her in a hurry. Unexpectedly, Du Yuan took a deep breath and knelt on the ground while Mei Bei was drinking tea.

"No matter what the Lord of the country does, I won't give up even if I die!"

"Oh, okay, okay, don't kneel, don't kneel. You're going to die, it's safe to work with me, okay?"

Every time someone knelt down and swore allegiance to her, Mei Berry felt that she was forcing a girl into prostitution and that she was no longer a human being.

After that, Meiberry coaxed people to go back first and not to reveal anything about today's conversation.

After the people left, Mei Bei breathed a sigh of relief, sat there and said calmly: "Mr. Chu, come out."

As soon as Mei Bei finished speaking, Chu Siyou walked out of the screen behind her.

He looked at Mayberry with a very complicated expression.

He heard what he just said clearly and was frightened.

"Xiang Jun, why are you so attracted to the Du family?"

In the past two days, Mei Mei had been asking Chu Siyuan a lot to inquire about the situation of each family. He knew the situation of the Du family. They really only had three melons and two dates left.

Therefore, even if Mei Bei asked the other party to do things for her, Chu Siyi did not interrupt.

However, Chu Siyou was surprised to see that Mei Qian wanted to find someone to do things for her but chose the "weakest" one.

"Ah, his family needs money but no money now, and they need people but no money. Why don't I take advantage of the situation and rob him?"

Chu Sijiu immediately heard the key to Mei Liang's words and asked, "Who in the Du family does Xiangjun like?"

"It's the master of fireworks from the Du family."

After Mei Li finished speaking, she took a sip of water to moisten her throat and then explained to Chu Siju the concept of the evolution of fireworks into war powder!
When Mei Mei was investigating the affairs of the Du family, she discovered that the Du family actually had a fireworks business.

Moreover, the key figures in making fireworks also left with the main branch of the Du family.

Then she can't get such a talent?
Then she heard Chu Siyi calmly nod his head and say, "Oh, that's the master who never gave up even though the head of the Du family was in dire straits."

"Yeah~" Mei Bei nodded, but she felt there was something strange about what Chu Siyu said, but for a moment she couldn't figure out what was strange. (End of chapter)
