Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 38 Will You Take a Concubine
"Make me a purse." The words came to my mouth inexplicably and turned into this sentence.

The little girl's face froze, she was very embarrassed, and there were thousands of words in her mind to explain that she couldn't, but what she blurted out was: "I...do it, try my best." Thinking of the horrible purse she once made for her brother, it was really Can't wait to take back the promise just now.

Both of them were annoyed that they hadn't told the truth, and the time just passed.

The private room was opened rudely again, Xu Ye was a little surprised, is his problem so easy to solve?It seems that Jiangnan is really talented.

Unexpectedly, more people came than before, including many other guests in the boat, apparently to see the fun.

"Who are you?" The man in Yuebai robe didn't say anything this time, but an older scholar asked warily.

Cheng Fu raised his eyebrows, covered his mouth and said to Xu Ye: "It seems that you didn't answer?"

As soon as she said this, the audience fell into an embarrassing silence, and the Yuebai robed scholar who was looking for trouble before was even more flushed, and dared not speak out.

"Why don't you go back and think about it again?" Cheng Fu stepped down the steps for them.

It's a pity that some people don't want it.

"This question doesn't count, let's do the comparison again." The older scholar asked shamelessly.

Cheng Fu stood up and said impatiently, "Okay, this private room is for you."

Xu Ye didn't question her, he also stood up, and said to the frowning boatman, "Is there still someone downstairs?"

Hearing this, the guy was almost moved to tears, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, please come with me."

No one expected that the two would react like this, why is it different from what they imagined?I thought that today I would either crush the opponent in terms of literary talent, or subdue the opponent in terms of force.As a result, they didn't choose either side, so they just let it go.

Instead of feeling the joy of overpowering others, they felt ashamed of being ridiculed.

The guy invited the two of them to the elegant seat by the window on the first floor, and gave them a plate of snacks out of his own pocket, just to thank them for their humility.

"Don't you think I'm weak?" the little girl asked with a smile.

Xu Ye shook his head, "You're just too rational." Whatever you do is considered pros and cons.

They still couldn't suffer from the head-on confrontation just now, but she didn't want these people to spoil the purpose of swimming in the river today, and she didn't want to affect the mood of enjoying the scenery because of fighting in a room with children who don't know the heights of the sky and the earth.She will not feel wronged if she makes a slight concession on this kind of matter.

Xu Ye felt that he knew her quite well.

"Sorry, I made a decision for you." She was a little melancholy.

Xu Ye shook his head again, "If I disagree, then I will definitely stop you." In other words, he also felt that there was nothing wrong with her actions.

"...If you think I'm wrong, stop me." The little girl's bright eyes were slightly moist.

Xu Ye felt as if he had to thank those stupid things.

For the rest of the time, no one came to bother them. The boat returned to the pier, and the two got off the boat and boarded the carriage that had been waiting for a long time.

Wu's second room
The owner of Hongzehang is none other than Wu Ying, the current head of the Wu family's second room.That's why what happened on the boat quickly reached his ears.

"How long have they been running like this?"

Ding Tong said helplessly: "Don't you know what they are like the best." It was none other than Wu Ziqi, the eldest son of the Wu family, and his group of cronies who were looking for trouble on the boat today.

To say that Wu Ziqi and Wu Ying are about the same age, their personalities are really very different.Wu Ziqi was spoiled.

"In the future, if he takes the lead in making troubles, you don't have to care about my face." If you have the ability, you can fight against Hong Zexing with real swords and guns.

Ding Tong knew that his master not only disliked Wu Ziqi's style, but also had an innate resistance to Dafang.Anyway, since the master was able to issue this order, it meant that no matter how hard Wu Ziqi tossed about, nothing would go wrong.He gladly complied.

"Did the people who followed Cheng Fu find out?" Wu Ying was inevitably a little curious when she heard that Cheng's family had guests from Beijing.

Ding Tong turned his eyes around the room, and Wu Ying knowingly ordered the maids who were waiting beside her to go down.

"Return to the master, this person is the only son of Dali Temple Qing Xu Ze, the champion of the new department Xu Chilie." Although he did not go to stare at it personally, but the people below came back to describe it, and he combined the portraits of all the scholars in the new department that had been saved before, and then The identity of the other party was confirmed.

Wu Ying's complexion became even more ugly, and she was furious, "I said that the idiot in Dafang didn't know what to do. If it wasn't for Jinling, he would have been skinned by someone." Some people in the Wu family still think that the Wu family In Jinling, is the earth emperor with hands and eyes open to the sky?
Comparing talent and learning, people are three yuan, comparing family background, their father is a close minister of the emperor, and he is the confidant of Emperor Qi.What is the Wu family?To put it bluntly, it was a family from the south of the Yangtze River that the emperor kept getting rid of.

Ding Tong knew what his master was angry about, and asked cautiously: "Then do you want to send some new year gifts to Cheng's family?" as an apology.

Wu Ying raised her hand, "Not necessary for now."

"Tell your people not to get too close during this time." Someone like Xu Ye seemed to go to the south of the Yangtze River alone, but who really knew that he was not surrounded by hidden guards.After all, Xu Ze is just such a precious son.Wu Ying didn't want to offend someone who shouldn't be offended while staring at Cheng Fu.

Ding Tong responded and went down to work.

Feeling depressed, Wu Ying opened all the windows until the cold wind came in to feel better.

He didn't let Ding Tong go to Cheng's house to make amends because Hongzexing did not make a big mistake in this matter. If Xu Ye wanted to vent his anger, Hongzexing was at best afraid of power, and it would not be too late to make up for it.

On the other hand, he has always kept the identity of Hongze Xing's owner well hidden, except for a few confidantes who are in charge, no one knows.So the fire couldn't reach him, Wu Ying.

But isn't that a big deal?
After Cheng Fu's concession, the incident really turned into a trivial episode.But if Cheng Fu didn't give in at that time, would he have to die?
With Wu Ziqi's personality, this small dispute will eventually magnify into a grievance between the Wu family and Xu Ye.Then, as the second owner of the Wu family who has not been separated, he lost the right to choose a position based on this background alone.

If the root problem is not resolved, there will be more troubles waiting for him in the future.

Wen Xiang and Jiu Jiu's embroidery skills are only average, so they are never ashamed to make things for their masters.Cheng Fu also knew that the two of them could do well as a cat kennel and a dog shed, but fine needlework could not be counted on.So she put her hope on Aunt Hua, a good neighbor in Jinling.It's a pity that Aunt Hua sews and mends, making pillows and quilts is okay, but the craftsmanship is a little difficult to be elegant if it has to be worn on the body.

Xu Ye leaned on the recliner in the study to read the manuscript, secretly glanced at the frowning little girl from time to time.I didn't know what she was worrying about at first, but a neighbor aunt came in just now, and the two were chatting at the door, and he heard everything, only then did I realize that the little girl was not good at embroidery, and wanted to hold Buddha's feet temporarily Learn a lesson.

He was in a mixed mood, on the one hand he disliked his thoughtless request, on the other hand he was touched by the little girl's affection for him.

"Miss, Zhao Hui is back." Wen Xiang reported outside the door.

Cheng Fu put down his pen, "Come in."

Zhaohui's face was a little stiff from the cold, but he was dressed thickly, so he wasn't really cold. He saluted Cheng Fu and presented a letter.

It was Cheng Han who ordered him to bring it back in person. Cheng Fu seemed to have a premonition and didn't open it immediately. Instead, he asked Zhaohui to go down and drink some hot soup to warm up and rest for a while.After the people left and the door of the study was closed, she slowly opened the letter.

Half an hour later, Zhaohui braved the heavy snow and returned to Yubei Academy with Cheng Fu's reply letter and half a cart of food and clothing.

Xu Ye didn't know the content of the letter, but it wasn't hard to guess that Cheng Han made the decision, and although the little girl was reluctant, she still chose to respect her brother's idea.

Cheng Fu has finished drawing the style of the purse, and the rest is how to practice the skills.Looking up, she found that Xiaoliu of the Xu family was looking at her, feeling a little guilty, and slowly took a book from the side to cover the pattern.

"Ahem, err...my brother won't come back for the New Year." You don't mind if you are deserted.

Xu Ye didn't expect Cheng Han not to spend the New Year with his sister, he felt that it was necessary for him to meet her.

"It's a good thing for me."

"..."

Looking at the exuberant face of the other party, Cheng Fu was a little dazed.The women in the capital have never seen this side of him, have they?Then can she be complacent?
"Xu Liu, will you take a concubine?"

"Huh?" The question was so sudden that he didn't react for a while.

Cheng Fu sighed, "It seems that I will."

"Do not……"

"This world is so unfair. A man can have three wives and four concubines. A woman can only live with one man and endure his old appearance, bloated body, beard and unshaven. Playing birds and crickets..."

"Wait, listen to me..."

"If you can't give birth to a son, you can't lift your head. The dowry will be ruined, and you will be called unvirtuous... Wow..." She was talking vigorously, when suddenly her body flew into the air, and she was tightly bound to someone.But someone obviously wouldn't let her go easily, so he changed his posture and hugged her sideways.

"What are you staring at me for? What's wrong with what I said?" Cheng Fu put his arms around his neck and looked straight at him confidently.

Xu Ye chuckled, "It's not wrong, but that's not me." He wanted to say a lot to the little girl, and wanted to tell her that since he knew her, he finally understood why his father had been passing away for so many years after his mother. nothing.

But at the same time, he didn't want to say it, because he was a man, and a man's promise was fart to a woman with a clear mind.It is obvious that the young girl in front of her has a mature mind beyond her age.

The little girl yawned and leaned her head on his shoulder, "I'm very happy that you came to Jinling."

"Ah."

Xu Ze, who was far away in the capital, carefully unfolded a portrait, smiled and said to the person in the painting: "Your son is better than me, and he will get what he wants." life.The person in this painting is his life.

Cheng Han didn't expect Xu Ye to come to Yubei Academy to see him, he was sure to be pleasantly surprised.Speaking of which, he still neglected the other party, who traveled thousands of miles to Jinling to celebrate the New Year with their brother and sister, but in the end he agreed to Ji Yan to visit the reclusive celebrities.

"Brother Xu, do you want to meet our mountain chief first?" He didn't forget who he got into school through.

Xu Ye shook his head, "I'm not Wang Shanhai's disciple. If Master Ji Shanhai has a grudge against me, knowing the relationship between you and me, I'm afraid it will hurt you." I don't like him.As much as those people admired Wang Shanhai, they cared as much for him as a person who never studied as a teacher.

There is no good place to talk next to Yubei Academy, but standing at the door in the cold is not an option.So the two got into the car and talked about the past slowly.

"Brother Xu, why didn't you become a teacher?" He didn't have a formal apprenticeship now, he was only a student of Yubei Academy.According to Bian Ning and the others, he will not be able to formally become a teacher until the next batch of freshmen enter the school, and he will become a senior.

"To the outside world, the Xu family has been pure ministers for generations, and the family precepts do not allow me to be a teacher at will. As for the real reason... the family is intertwined with each other, and so are the scholars. My father and I don't want to get too involved with these forces. "The Xu family has its own background, and it doesn't lack anything, so there's no need to make trouble for yourself.

These words brought Cheng Han a new angle of thinking, so he said that he would go with Ji Yan and other classmates to pay New Year's greetings to those celebrities who lived in seclusion in the south of the Yangtze River.I heard that many old scholars are still living in poverty, so in addition to listening to their studies, they also have to give some rice grains to those scholars who are not rich to maintain their basic livelihood.

Xu Ye paused for a moment, and did not directly express his opinion on what he was going to do, but asked: "In the future, do you want to be a courtier or a loyal minister?"

Cheng Han was suddenly seen through, and felt a little ashamed.Biting his lip, "What if it's neither?"

Xu Ye also knew that he had scared the child, so he put on a relaxed smile, patted him on the shoulder, and said gently: "I can guess what you want to do, but you have to think about your sister more, she can't Losing you. There are many ways to get revenge, and there is always one that can make everyone happy." He hoped that the child would never dig into the corner and admit death.

Cheng Han couldn't say anything, he could only bow to him gratefully.

"Okay, you go back, I'll go buy some fireworks for your sister. You're not at home, this year the two of us can only have fun by ourselves." It was also the first time for Xu Ye to reason with others, and he was not happy.

It is because he knows the hardships of their brothers and sisters that he is unwilling to shamelessly use his views of right and wrong to influence them.Whether it is letting go or being radical, it should be chosen by the brothers and sisters themselves.All he has is his own selfishness, and he hopes that they will all live a good life, and don't use the method of injuring the enemy one thousand and self-injury eight hundred in this life.

"Thank you."

Cheng Han got off the carriage.

Although Xu Ye was alone this time, he couldn't stop his father from sending someone to follow him.And now that everyone is here, it's good to take him with him anytime, so he can have more time to play with the little girl.

Luyan turned over from the wall of the nearby house.

"Master."

"Who are they?" He noticed that he was being followed when he came out of the boat yesterday.He was with Cheng Fu at that time, but he didn't reveal it.Only let Luyan go to anti-tracking.

"There are two parties, both from the Wu family."
