Chapter 69

Han Wence and his family have never dealt with him. To get him to come back and subdue him, Mrs. Ji must have done something.

Shen Nanfeng stepped forward and asked, "Second Brother, what are you..."

Han Wence looked up and saw Shen Nanfeng and the two of them, "You are the ones who are back, brother Shen laughed at me, forgive me for being rude today, so I won't greet you."

Han Su came to Han Wence's side and saw the purple-clothed woman in the main hall from a distance.

"Second brother, what happened?"

"You don't have to worry about my affairs. Don't worry, I will handle it myself."

Shen Nanfeng asked: "Mrs. Ji threatened Miss Yun Qingyou, right? Second brother, if you agree to marry that princess, Mrs. Ji must agree to your taking Miss Yun into the room."

"Brother Shen, things are not as simple as you think. At this point, Qingyou and I are no longer in a relationship. What I don't want to compromise on is another matter."

Han Su suddenly asked, "Is it the Jianghuai Chamber of Commerce?"

Only then did Shen Nanfeng come to his senses, "It turns out that if you marry His Royal Highness, the second elder brother will no longer be able to engage in business, and if you have a business background, you will no longer be able to gain fame and become an official. Alas, after all, there is no way to achieve food freedom these days. Therefore, the imperial court's emphasis on agriculture and suppression of business was a helpless move. Otherwise, why would the second brother be so capable?"

Han Wence shook his head, "Okay, you don't have to worry about me, so as not to be angered by my mother."

Shen Nanfeng was a little puzzled, "Then what is the second brother kneeling here for? Want to ask Mrs. Ji to break off the engagement? It's unlikely, right? And if it's just for the engagement, you won't bow your head."

"I know Auntie, this time she is serious. I can compromise to marry Gu Xueyang, but I still don't want to let go of the business in my hand, but Auntie wants me to join the army and enter the court with military merits."

If you think about it carefully, the emphasis on agriculture and suppression of business means that businessmen are not allowed to obtain meritorious service, but if they have achieved meritorious service in battles on the battlefield, they can still be recognized.

This may not be a good path, but unfortunately, Han Wence's talent lies in business, and he will never compromise.

"This matter is easy to handle. Can't Second Brother just agree?"

Han Wence was a little dissatisfied, "You also want to persuade me to give up the Jianghuai Chamber of Commerce?"

"Second brother, you are such a smart person, why do you suddenly lose your mind when facing your parents? You can hand over the business to someone you trust."

"If you can't speak, shut up!" Judging by Han Wence's reaction, he also rejected Shen Nanfeng's suggestion.

After all, Han Wence really likes business. Besides, another person may not be able to secure the position of president of the Jianghuai Chamber of Commerce like him.

Shen Nanfeng simply continued: "Second brother, there is another way, and that is to enter the prince's mansion of Zhui County, and then select an imperial merchant. Although it still cannot get rid of the identity of a merchant, the children will not follow your surname, but the Gu family's surname. That's what Mrs. Ji is worried about. doesn't exist."

As soon as the words were finished, Mrs. Ji appeared at the door of the main hall at some point, her eyes were as cold as a knife.

That murderous gaze fell on Shen Nanfeng.

"Who are you? You dare to speak nonsense in my palace, and you dare to persuade my son to become a son-in-law to the prince's palace. Do you want to die?"

In fact, after hearing Shen Nanfeng's suggestion, Han Wence was also willing to accept it.

But he also understood his mother's temperament. If she would agree to such a thing, he would have done it long ago.

"Junior Shen Nanfeng, pay my respects to Mrs. Ji."

Shen Nanfeng secretly lamented that his luck was really bad. On the first day he came to Han's house, he actually offended the person who shouldn't be offended.

"You are Shen Nanfeng? A Su, is he your friend?"

Han Su saluted Mrs. Ji, "Mother, please don't blame me. This friend of mine has always been outspoken. I apologize on his behalf."

"Since I'm your friend, I won't say any more, but I still have to remind you, you are Miss Han, so don't associate with those dubious people!"

Shen Nanfeng thought to himself that he and Han Wenyuan were indeed mother and son, because Han Wenyuan also told Han Su so.

And the dubious people in their mouths are all themselves.

If it had been anyone else's business, Shen Nanfeng would have shut up obediently at this moment.

But after spending so much time with the second brother, I already regarded him as a friend, so she simply said: "Mrs. Ji, I'm sorry for being rude, but since Second Young Master Han has already agreed to fulfill the engagement, why do you have to force him to do something you don't want to do?" Things to do?"

"When will it be the turn of outsiders to intervene in my Han family's family affairs? Boy, if it weren't for A Su's sake, you would be a dead man at this time for what you said just now to persuade my son!"

Ji Lingxue's eyes were cold and stern. She was definitely as ruthless as Han Su.

She is the eldest daughter of the Ji family in Huaishui. She has been a unruly and willful mistress since she was a child.

At least Han Su is a reasonable person, but with Mrs. Ji, her reasoning is the only one.

Han Wence and Han Su winked at this moment.

I thought to myself that Shen Nanfeng is usually timid, why does he always offend people who can't afford to provoke at critical moments?
Han Wence immediately said: "Don't be angry, Auntie, brother Shen and I have been friends for eight worships, and he is not an outsider."

"Hmph! Since you are your best friend, you should understand etiquette even more!"

Seeing Ji Lingxue so angry, Shen Nanfeng immediately used his special skills.

He immediately took two steps forward, knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Junior Shen Nanfeng, I pay my respects to Auntie. Brother Han and I are best friends. When we see you, we should do our best to show respect. I was impolite in my words just now. Please forgive me, Auntie!"

One mouthful and one aunt, Ji Lingxue couldn't even handle it.

Han Wence's face was ashen, and he said to Han Su under his throat: "Why is this kid so shameless? Take him away quickly!"

Shen Nanfeng was still kneeling on the ground and did not get up, "Auntie, as the old saying goes, if you don't reach out and hit the smiling person, I'm already kneeling, so you can't hit me."

Ji Lingxue's mouth twitched and she glared at Han Wence, "Is this what you call a close friend?"

"Auntie, you have to know that life is only a hundred years. The first half of Han Erge's life was also considered a bumpy road. He couldn't stay with the person he loved. Now he has to marry a woman he doesn't like for the sake of the family. He just wants to stick to being what he likes." And the second elder brother's choice of business is also greatly influenced by his uncle and aunt."

Ji Lingxue frowned, "Affected by us? Humph! We never taught him to delve into this lowly way!"

"Auntie, the second elder brother once said that business is the lifeline of money and food. Have you ever thought about it, he is the son of a dignified marquis, with a wealthy family background, why he likes to collect money so much? That is because he has been deeply aware of the importance of money and food to the army since he was a child. Xing, because he was born in the Marquis Mansion, he knows that he is not as good as his elder brother Wen Dao Wu Lue, nor as talented as his third brother, but he is also a son, and he also wants to help you guys."

As soon as these words came out, Han Wence said angrily: "Shen Nanfeng! What are you talking about?!"

Ji Lingxue was obviously touched and glanced at her son kneeling far away with a complicated expression.

Shen Nanfeng continued regardless: "Even in ordinary people's families, the second eldest son is the most inconspicuous one. The eldest son has high hopes, and the youngest son will be doted on in every possible way. The second brother Han fights against you since he was a child. In addition to resisting, Don’t you have any idea to attract your attention?”
