Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 299

Feng Haoran stared at her for a moment, for fear of missing any subtle expression on her face. When it came to Gu Ning, she was very happy, her eyes sparkled, but there was no sign of shyness or blushing, nor did she look away.

Does that mean that Gu Ning is the same as him in her heart?

He was still a little afraid that she liked Gu Ning instead of himself, but when he guessed that she didn't like him or Gu Ning, he would rather she liked Gu Ning.

However, if she likes Gu Ning, I'm afraid it will be troublesome. Gu Ning's family is so complicated. Although he is so good, his mother is weak, his father prefers the concubine and aunt, and the grandfather doesn't like their house. I don't want to pass it on to Gu Ning's father.

But even if they don't care about Gu Ning's life and death, or Gu Ning's studies, they are unusually enthusiastic about his marriage. At least they want his marriage to bring better benefits to the Gu family.

In this way, he sympathizes with Gu Ning, and feels that Gu Ning and Xiuyao are actually a good match. They are talented and beautiful, one is accomplished in river management, and the other is talented in farming, so they complement each other.

He was thinking wildly, worrying about gains and losses. When Xiuyao talked to him, he made two mistakes in three sentences, and one sentence was wrong. Xiuyao sighed, "Brother Haoran, what's the matter with you?"

This situation is clearly Sichun!
Naturally she wouldn't say it, she was still a simple and well-behaved girl on the surface, looking at him with a pair of smart eyes smiling slightly.

Feng Haoran's cheeks flushed immediately, "I, I, I'm leaving first. Gu Ning has been here for the past two days, and I'll accompany him when he comes." As he spoke, he got up in a hurry, and then ran away in a hurry. When he went out, he knocked down Sun Xiaoyi He hurriedly helped up the stool again, and kept saying sorry to a stool.

Seeing him run away, Xiuyao sighed, "What's wrong with him?"

Feng Haoran returned home, but he was still restless, and regretted why he was suddenly clumsy.

Just as he was thinking wildly, it suddenly rained heavily, and he also forgot to take shelter from the rain, so he stood in the rain and thought, but he couldn't figure out whether Xiuyao liked him or not.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Feng Yulan came back from the outside in the rain, and happened to see him through the verandah.

Feng Haoran didn't make a sound, and was still in a daze. Feng Yulan was frightened, and regardless of the rain, she rushed over and pulled him, dragging him into the veranda.

Feng Yulan's clothes were wet, and there were many mud spots on her skirt, and her embroidered shoes were even more muddy.

When Feng Haoran came back to his senses, he glanced at her and asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"

Feng Yulan blushed, "It's nothing, the axle broke when Shangxiang came back and got stuck in the mud."

Feng Haoran hurriedly asked her how she got back and so on.

Feng Yulan lowered her head slightly, pretending to be relaxed and said: "I happened to meet the Qin family's carriage, he gave me the carriage, and I came back."

Feng Haoran glanced at her, "The Qin family? Is it Qin Ye's?"

Feng Yulan shook her head, "No, it's from Qin."

Feng Haoran let out an oh, and stopped talking. Feng Yulan glanced at him, and said with concern: "Brother, what's the matter with you? You're out of your mind."

Feng Haoran said casually: "Did you hear that mother and aunt are talking... have you discussed marriage?"

Feng Yulan's cheeks turned red suddenly, "I, why didn't I hear that?"

Feng Haoran looked down at a blister in the yard, flickering, and a fallen leaf, "They said they want me to marry Gu Ying, I..."

Feng Yulan immediately understood what was going on. She and her brother had a good relationship since they were young, and they almost talked about everything. Although they grew up and had different thoughts between men and women, they still talked about big things or difficult decisions.

She smiled and said, "Brother, how wonderful is Sister Gu, if you marry her..."

"I don't want to marry her!" Feng Haoran said firmly.

Feng Yulan froze for a moment, and suddenly understood something, "You, you, you like Qin Xiuyao!"

Feng Haoran's cheeks were flushed, his eyes were watery, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes seemed to be smudged with water vapor, with a trace of imperceptible excitement and resistance, "Isn't it possible? Sister Xiuyao is so good, smart, well-educated, capable, and considerate... .”

Feng Yulan thought for a while, and it was true. However, she shook her head, "Brother, don't you know your mother? If you marry Qin Xiuyao, it won't do our family any good, and it won't do much good for your future. If you marry Qin Xiuyao If you leave Qin Xiuyao, we will take care of the Qin family, and if you marry Sister Gu, it will be the Gu family who will take care of our family."

Feng Haoran disagreed, "Then didn't we take care of the Qin family before? Now that the Qin family has developed, they will help each other with us."

Feng Yulan shook her head and sighed, "Brother, mother will not let you manage these shops at home for the rest of your life. If you want to be an official, then naturally the Gu family can help. What is the use of the Qin family?" There was a hint of contempt in his tone, and he quickly corrected his attitude, and continued: "Even if their family has a scholar, it is not certain whether they can be promoted, even if they are selected, whether they can be selected as a Jinshi is still a matter of opinion, even if they are awarded a Jinshi, can they be recruited?" It's even more difficult to say if it's really missing. Brother, do you think mother will agree?"

Feng Haoran's face turned pale immediately, "I'll ask my mother, I want her to tell me herself."

Feng Yulan looked at his back with half envy and half pity, and sighed softly. At this moment, the nurse stepped forward and said, "Miss, the carriage has returned."

Feng Yulan hummed, "Have you ever sent a thank you gift?"

"Don't worry, Miss, I won't be rude."

Feng Yulan stopped talking, turned around and followed Feng Haoran for another two steps, but felt that something was wrong, so she said, "Let's go back to the room."

When Feng Haoran went to the second grandmother's room, she was taking a nap and her head hurt a little.

Although he came here excitedly, wanting to ask what happened, but the respect and respect in front of the second grandmother since childhood made him involuntarily lighten his steps, and the burning feeling in his heart seemed to be slowly calming down. slow.

This has always been like this since I was a child. If I have any ideas that are inconsistent with my mother, I will be called rebellious. Although my mother doesn't say it on the surface, she will let him hit his head and break his blood. In the end, he will come back to apologize to her and say that he will never do it again. up.

So those who committed the crime never did it again, and those who did not commit the crime also tried because of his eagerness to win, and all of them ended up being defeated by themselves.

His life is a road that has been planned for him by his mother.

When the third aunt and mother were fighting for the right to be in charge of the house, and the grandfather was partial to the third bedroom, he was angry that his mother was being bullied and wanted to help her, but his mother let him concentrate on studying.

As a result, within a few years, not only did my mother take back the right to be the head of the family, but he was already a scholar, and he was quite appreciated by his grandfather.

Today, the status of the second house at home is not comparable to that of the third house, and it is not something that can be shaken by any house now.

He wanted it to be like this, which was fine, but his mother said that he wanted him to become an official.

He couldn't figure it out, but a voice in his heart told him that there was no need to argue with his mother, because in the end the facts would prove that his mother was right.

But, but he was not reconciled, he was not reconciled to marrying a girl he didn't like instead of marrying a girl he liked.

Even though he was full of grievances and wanted to argue with his mother, but when he heard that her mother was taking a nap and her head hurt, he immediately subconsciously followed his own habits, worrying whether her mother would feel uncomfortable.

He stood there for a while, and those girls seemed to have received their orders a long time ago, and no one came to bother him. When he turned to leave, Second Mistress's voice came from the inner room, "Why don't you come in."

"Mother!" Feng Haoran stepped inside quickly, greeting Second Mistress.

Second Mistress helped him up, hugged him and sat on the Arhat bed, "What's the matter? Your clothes are wet and your hair is wet too. How did Qingluo serve you?"

Second Mistress's complexion darkened, as if she was about to explode, Feng Haoran immediately said: "Mom, I got wet outside, it's none of her business."

"And what about your boy?"

Feng Haoran was afraid that he would cause trouble to the servant, so he immediately said that he sent him to do other things.

"I, I'm going to Qin's house to deliver ice."

Second Mistress hummed, "And then came back in the rain?"

Feng Haoran hurriedly shook his head, "No, I just got wet when I came back." He was also afraid that his mother would feel that no one would care if he went to Qin's house to get wet, so he hurriedly clarified.

Second Mistress sighed, "What on earth are you going to say? You are my son, don't you think I don't know?"

Feng Haoran suddenly turned his head to look at her, his eyes were unusually bright, "Mother!"

Second Mistress smiled, "You heard that your aunt and I were discussing marriage for you, and you are dissatisfied with Gu Ying. You think you like Xiuyao, right?"

Feng Haoran's cheeks turned red. Even though he was here to discuss this matter, it would be a bit embarrassing to say muster up his courage at this time. After all, there is no one who advocates his own marriage.

Second Mistress smiled and took his hand slightly, "Good son, tell mother why you insist on sister Xiuyao."

Feng Haoran immediately gave a bunch of reasons, Qin Xiuyao is smart, gentle, knowledgeable, considerate and capable...

The second grandma said lightly: "Is she the only such an excellent girl in this world? Why must it be her? She is a good relative and friend of our family. Even if you don't marry her, we have always had a good relationship. You You can also visit her often, and she can also visit you often, what's wrong with that?"

Feng Haoran couldn't refute it for a while, but he felt that what his mother said was not entirely correct, and seemed to be talking nonsense. Although he said so, he didn't think it was so.

What he wants is for Xiuyao to be the person next to him, who can be together every day, eat together, sleep together, play together and struggle together...

Second Mistress looked at his face, and said again: "Do you know her? Do you know what she likes and hates? What you see is only the side of her that others want to see. She is stable, smart, gentle, but she is unknown. Has she told you, let you see it? Has she ever talked to you? Will she cry in front of your face? Has she ever blushed at you? Has she ever shown you that she wants to grow Do you mean staying at our house?"

She asked questions like a cannonball, and Feng Haoran couldn't answer any of them.

"Good son, my mother told you to remember from an early age, never pick the best one, and never touch the worst one. The best one is to appreciate it from a distance. It's fine if it's a friend rather than an enemy. It's all you can have. , is slightly inferior to you, you can control it. Don't you understand it yet?"

Feng Haoran bit his lip and remained silent. He couldn't refute, but he felt that they were not all right. Every time his mother told him the truth, it took him a while to understand.

But this time, it was so painful, after a while, things might change.

Second Mistress looked at his awkward look, sighed, and said, "You don't have to quarrel with me, and I won't force you, just go and try with the Qin family. You can also see if Xiuyao likes you , I like you so much that I want to marry you."

Hearing that his mother let go, Feng Haoran stood up like a dead tree that suddenly came to life, "Mother, is what you said true?"

The second mistress looked at him kindly and nodded, "Of course, when did mother lie to you? But I still want to keep the ugly words in my head. No matter who you marry, you are all descendants of the Feng family, and you can't To move out and set up a new family, this is my only request, and you can handle the rest by yourself."

Feng Haoran didn't think much about it, and ran out excitedly. The summer was long and there was another heavy rainstorm. The air outside was fresh, and it was comfortable at this time.

He loudly called the boy to prepare the car, and then went to find Xiuyao.

When they arrived at the door of Qin's house, they found a young man sitting under the wall with his mouth pursed and sulking.

Feng Haoran ignored him, but the servant recognized him, "Hey, isn't that Master Zhou Mu from Zhou's family in Taoyuan Village, Master Zhou's family?"
