The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 97
After Liu Wei, Zhao Defang and the others finished talking with Yan Xiao in the study, they left the Yan Mansion directly.

Originally they came to join in the fun, but what happened just now, their identities cannot be guaranteed not to be revealed, if they continue to stay in Yanfu, troubles will inevitably arise again.

Furthermore, Liu Wei and Yan Xiao's goal of making friends has been achieved, and they have obtained the excellent Four Treasures of the Study, so there is no point in staying any longer.

However, after Liu Wei and the others left Yan's mansion, a middle-aged man who looked like Mr. Accountant hurried into the study, saw Yan Xiao and said, "Master, the four treasures of the study are priceless, why did you give them away so easily?"

Yan Xiao smiled calmly at this time, fiddled with the brushes hanging on the shelf in the study, and said, "Since I knew that person was Liu Wei, how could I not make friends with him? Liu Wei is the most intelligent person in Song Dynasty. As long as we have a good relationship with him, we can talk to each other whether it is in business or in the court. Don't forget that after the spring, our Song Dynasty will do business with the Southern Tang and Wu Yue. If Wei Wei took it, he will definitely profit from it, if a pair of the Four Treasures of the Study can let Liu Wei give us some profit, why not?"

After Yan Xiao finished speaking, the middle-aged man understood, and said with a slight smile, "My boss still has a long-term view."

"Okay, stop flattering, tell our people to be more careful in your actions in the future, and restrain yourself in court, then Zhao Defang has obviously noticed us."

"My master, don't worry, we don't have many people in the court, and our power is all in the local area. As long as the few people in the court don't get ahead, nothing will happen."

Yan Xiao nodded slightly, then waved his hand to let the middle-aged man leave.

After leaving Deyan Mansion, Liu Wei and others strolled along the street. Dou Hao kept staring at the Four Treasures of the Study in Liu Wei's hand. Although Liu Wei noticed it, he pretended not to know that the Four Treasures of the Study were a good thing, and he couldn't bear to part with it.

The snow on the street is still very thick, but many places have been stepped on by the people of the capital, and there is a danger of slipping if you are not careful. After a few people walked for a while, it was already noon, but many inns in the capital were not open at this time of year. , After a few people looked at each other, they couldn't help laughing.

"Since many shops are not guarded, why don't you have a drink at the Prince's Mansion?"

Dou Hao is willing, but Liu Wei refuses with a smile.

"The winery and the mansion are very busy, I really can't leave all these to Uncle Liu and the princess, why don't we let it go."

The winery and the mansion are naturally a little busy, but Liu Wei is not too worried. The reason why he bid farewell to these people is because he has the precious Four Treasures of the Study in his hand, and it is very inconvenient for him to move around. She suddenly wanted to see Qin Yun and Guan Qingyi, father and daughter. Qin Yun's family was in the Southern Han Dynasty. After the Chinese New Year, she didn't even have any relatives by her side, so she must be very lonely.

Guan Qingyi's father and daughter are better than Qin Yun, but they are only better. The father and daughter are not short of money now, and even bought another house, but Liu Wei felt sorry for Guan Qingyi's speechlessness. Can't help but want to be nice to her.

Zhao Defang, Dou Hao and others heard what Liu Wei said, so they had no choice but to let Liu Wei go. The three of them bowed their hands to Liu Weiwei, and then rushed to Qin Kanghui's palace.

Liu Wei sent the Four Treasures of the Study to the mansion, and after having lunch at home, he went to Qin's Restaurant.

Qin's restaurant is also closed today, and all the servants hired by Qin Yun have gone home for the New Year, so the whole restaurant is only Qin Yun, and it looks very empty. When Liu Wei came to the restaurant, Qin Yun was holding his chin in a daze at the counter, A strand of hair brushed across her cheek, making her look a little lazy and a little bit gorgeous.

After seeing Liu Wei, she was a little pleasantly surprised, but she soon regained her dignity, stood up and greeted Liu Wei: "Did Prince Concubine Liu go to play with friends?"

Liu Wei smiled: "I've been there in the morning and passed by here, so I came to see Miss Qin."

Qin Yun smiled sweetly, so she naturally wouldn't think that Liu Wei was just passing by.

"Master Liu, please sit down, my family is going to get some food and wine."

"Miss Qin, don't bother, let's sit down and chat, and I just had dinner."

It was only then that Qin Yun suddenly realized that it was not long after noon, but she didn't lose her composure, and responded with a smile.

The two sat down casually in the restaurant, and first said some irrelevant things, and while talking, Qin Yun suddenly remembered something, so he said with a smile: "Mr. Yan Xiaoyan's house is very lively this morning. A The gifted scholar wrote two poems about plum blossoms, but they amazed everyone. The plum blossoms are three times whiter than the snow, but the snow is less fragrant than the plum blossoms. Prince Liu, do you think these poems are good?"

As Qin Yun spoke, he raised his chin again, and looked at Liu Wei with bright eyes like the autumn moon, wanting to know Liu Wei's opinion, Liu Wei smiled awkwardly: "No one knows the name of the person who wrote the poems. ?"

Qin Yun was taken aback for a moment: "No one knows, but that person..." At this point, Qin Yun suddenly realized, and then said with a bit of self-blame: "My family is really confused, did rumors spread on the street that that person With his appearance and clothes, the slave family did not expect it to be Liu's son-in-law."

As he spoke, Qin Yun suddenly smiled again.

Liu Wei shrugged: "The poems are good, but I am too embarrassed to boast!"

"My family thinks that poem is really good, but why does no one know that it was written by the son-in-law?" At this point, Qin Yun seemed to understand again, and made a dazed expression.

The two chatted like this for about half an hour before Liu Wei offered to leave.

Leaving Qin's Restaurant, Liu Wei went directly to Guan Tsing Yi's house. The new house of their father and daughter was not far from Guan's Bun Shop. When Liu Wei went, Guan Tsing Yi was giving buns to some homeless people. Now that her family background is good, Guan Qingyi's kindness is more able to be put into practical actions.

Seeing Liu Wei, Guan Qingyi rushed over, grabbed his arm and entered the mansion. The Guan mansion is not big, with only a courtyard in front and a few rooms in the back. Guan Hong was even more excited when he saw Liu Wei coming. He came up to him and said with a smile: "Liu Concubine has a lot of things to do every day and still wants to see us, we father and daughter really don't know what to say."

Liu Wei smiled: "For Chinese New Year, you should visit more often."

As they talked, they had already entered the living room. There were several red paper envelopes on the table in the living room. Liu Wei opened them at will to look at them. Although Tsing Yi's face changed suddenly, it was too late to stop them.

The red paper envelope was opened, and there was a person's name and date of birth written on it. Liu Wei immediately understood after seeing this, put down the envelope, and said with a smile: "Someone wants to propose marriage to Miss Guan?"

Although Tsing Yi's complexion is very bad, and she bit her lips in embarrassment, her heart has long belonged to Willow, but she dared not and could not reveal her feelings.

Guan Hong smiled happily from the side: "Yes, since our father and daughter won the top prize in the food competition last time, there have been matchmakers coming to the door from time to time, and several of them sent their birthdays yesterday, Tsing Yi is not young, If I can find a good home, my old man will feel at ease even if he dies."

When Guan Hong said this, Guan Qingyi pulled down his sleeve angrily, but Guan Hong didn't care, he was Guan Qingyi's father, so how could he not know what his daughter was thinking, but he knew better He knew that it was impossible for his daughter to be with Liu Wei, and as a father, he couldn't watch his daughter die alone. He had to choose a good husband-in-law for his daughter in his lifetime.

"Actually, the little girl looks good, and is well-behaved and sensible. As long as the other party is sincere to my daughter, I have no objection to the old man." Guan Hong said what he meant. In fact, he knew very well that his daughter could not speak. , This is difficult for many men to accept, but there are still many men who propose marriage, so some of them must have taken a fancy to their housekeeper's money. Of course, it may also be their skill in making soup dumplings.

Liu Wei naturally understands what Guan Hong means. For many people, marriage is nothing more than an exchange of interests. Sometimes feelings are really not that important.

"Old man Guan is right. It would be a good thing if someone treats Miss Guan sincerely." Liu Wei couldn't give Guan Qingyi happiness, so naturally he couldn't stop Guan Qingyi from having happiness.

But as soon as he said this, Guan Tsing Yi burst into tears, and turned around and ran into his bedroom.

Seeing his daughter like this, Guan Hong was also upset for a moment, couldn't help but sighed, Liu Wei didn't expect such a situation, he glanced at Guan Hong, and said: "I'll go and see her."

Guan Hong nodded: "My son-in-law, please persuade her well."

Liu Wei came to Guan Qingyi's door, knocked lightly a few times, the door opened with a creak, Guan Qingyi stood inside, tears were still visible, Liu Wei stepped in, before opening his mouth, Guan Qingyi suddenly rushed over to hug her. Holding Liu Wei, her delicate body made Liu Wei feel a little distracted for a while.

Liu Wei didn't push Guan Qingyi away, he could understand Guan Qingyi's mood at this time.

But after a long time, Guan Qingyi let go by herself. When she let go, she had a smile and satisfaction on her face. She knew very well that it was impossible for her to meet a man whom she could like so much again in this life. , she would rather never marry than to compromise her own happiness, as long as she could see Liu Wei from time to time, she would be satisfied.

Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand what Guan Qingyi was thinking, he thought Guan Qingyi had figured it out, after all, in Liu Wei's view, marriage is a strange thing, it has been like this since ancient times, the ancients had matchmakers In other words, a man and a woman can get married without meeting each other. Although the future generations will have a blind date, it will be settled soon.

No one will refuse marriage because of love, as long as it is suitable, they can come together without love.As long as a man is willing to treat Guan Qingyi well, Liu Wei will naturally not object to Guan Qingyi's pursuit of happiness.

But for some reason, when Liu Wei thought this way, his heart ached.
