Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 70 Not worthy of her
How could Ye Qiongdan fail to perceive his gaze, she sighed slightly in her heart, Luohua deliberately followed the flowing water, and flowing water unintentionally fell in love with Luohua, this is the most helpless thing in the world.

After a while, the three of them walked to Tang's house.

The Tang family is the richest family in the village. There are two bright lanterns hanging in front of the door. The courtyard has been swept and tidied up very cleanly. Clumps of chrysanthemums representing integrity are planted beside the fence, lush and lush.

In order to provide a good learning environment for the scholars at home, Mr. Tang even set up a special study room, which also has a whole shelf of books.

After Old Master Tang led Ye Qiongdan into the study, he said to Tang Xiaoxiu, "Go out first, Grandpa has a few words to say to Miss Ye."

Tang Xiaoxiu thought that his grandfather was going to persuade him to get married, so he immediately lowered his head shyly, retreated, and closed the door of the study.

In the room, the lights were faint, rippling like the water at the bottom of the river.

Mr. Tang was silent for a while and then said: "Miss Ye, you are indeed an extraordinary woman, but I am not satisfied with you."

"Indeed, a gentle, elegant, well-educated woman should be a good match for Mr. Tang." Ye Qiongdan said lightly.

Seeing that Ye Qiongdan was not angry, Mr. Tang was a little surprised: "Miss Ye is really a sensible person. I know that you are not something in the pool, and my grandson can't live in it. My Tang family has strict rules. If you can't bear it, it will eventually lead to reconciliation and separation, since you have great ambitions, why bother to be trapped in a cage for a few years?"

"Actually, you should tell Mr. Tang that." Ye Qiongdan said politely.

"It would be great if he could listen to it," Mr. Tang sighed, and took out a box from the study drawer, which contained a small and half-finger-sized agarwood plaque, "Since Miss Ye's heart is as clear as a mirror, , the old man begs you to do me a favor, this is a thank you gift."

"You're welcome," Ye Qiongdan didn't reach out to pick up the box, "It's just a matter of little effort, not to mention, I don't want the two families to continue to entangle. It will not only delay Mr. Tang's future, but also make me feel a little troubled. "

"Miss Ye has already figured out how to speak?" Mr. Tang asked in surprise.

"It's simple!" Ye Qiongdan smiled slightly, walked out of the study, and said to Tang Xiaoxiu who was waiting in the main room, "Mr. Tang, do you have a chessboard at home?"

"Yes!" Tang Xiaoxiu just finished speaking, then lowered her head again, not daring to look at her, "I'll give it to the girl."

"Take it to the study." Ye Qiongdan said.

After a while, Tang Xiaoxiu came into the study with a chessboard, and nervously put the two boxes of chess pieces on the table.

Ye Qiongdan sat opposite the desk, picked up a chess piece in his hand, and started to lay out the layout with a calm smile on his face.

Under the quiet firelight, her long hair is like ink, her eyes are like stars, her red lips are like water, and she is dressed in a simple and elegant Tsing Yi, which seems to have exhausted the beauty of summer, and her gestures are full of elegance, making young master Tang's heart skip a beat. One shot.

The more I look at her, the more I feel that she is beautiful, like the stars in the sky, shining like broken silver in the sky, it seems that I can pick it up with my hands, but in reality it is out of reach, I can't help but feel emotional.

After Ye Qiongdan set up a chess game, he smiled politely and said, "Mr. Tang has read poetry and books since he was a child, so he must be good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting?"

"Yes." Young Master Tang replied cautiously.

"If the young master can solve the chess game I set up within three days, I will happily marry into the Tang family."

Young Master Tang's heart was a little cold. Although Ye Qiongdan only said half of what she said, he already understood the other half she didn't say.

If he didn't solve the chess game she set up within three days, then the marriage between the two families would be over.

Young Master Tang's face is a little pale, but he is a person who has read the sage books for many years. The sage books did not teach him to shrink back, nor did they teach him to break promises. If he didn't solve the chess game after three days, he and her would be dead. Here it is.

Young Master Tang was a little sad, he took a deep breath, and replied solemnly: "I will definitely do my best."

"It's getting late, I'm leaving." Ye Qiongdan saluted him generously and left the Tang family.

She believes that Young Master Tang can't solve this chess game, because this chess game has been passed down through the ages in the world she lived in her previous life and no one can break it. I don't know how many famous Go masters have lost to this chess game.

The reason why I don't compare him to poetry is that I am afraid that it will shake his self-confidence and hinder his future learning.

On the way back to the new house, she saw the brisk cattle butcher from a distance, and thought to herself, he might have gotten the five taels of silver from the old man.Niu Butcher is a man who has been in the market for decades. It is impossible for him not to see that Mr. Ye loves face. In addition, Ye Jiwu yelled about his face-saving later. As long as he uses Ye Jiwu to harm Ye Qiongdan The slightest threat to the matter, saying that it will be publicized in the village, Mr. Ye will definitely compromise.

Three days later, Tang Xiaoxiu, who had barely slept for several hours, finally gave up, he couldn't solve the chess game played by Ye Qiongdanbu.

The Tang family publicly announced in the village that their marriage with the Ye family was over.

Everyone in Shanghe Village was boiling, and the threshold of the Tang family was almost broken by the matchmaker.

On the grounds that his grandson has not yet established a career, Mr. Tang cut off the enthusiasm of the relative proposers from all over the world.

When Tang Xiaoxiu went out to go back to school, many people in the village came to see him off. While seeing him off, the villagers did not forget to praise their daughters. It was wise to mention that the Tang family would no longer be married to the Ye family. Let's just say that Ye Qiongdan is not good enough for him.

Unexpectedly, Tang Xiaoxiu sighed, and said sadly and sincerely: "No, it's because Tang is not good enough for Miss Ye. Miss Ye is very intelligent, and Tang feels ashamed."

The villagers were dumbfounded and didn't know what to say for a while.

After Tang Xiaoxiu got into the donkey cart, he lowered his head sadly. He knew that he should give up on her, but he became more and more admiring for her. It started with her beauty and fell into her talent.

This midsummer has just begun, but looking at the leaves swaying in the wind, he feels that his autumn has come early.

In Xushi, Qili Town, Jiuwei Restaurant.

As the sun set, the thick shade of several big trees shrouded the yard, making the light in the yard even more dim.

A few dandelions in the corner of the yard drooped their light yellow petals, and Ye Qiongdan in a green dress was walking in the green grass that did not cover her shoes, carefully inspecting the installed traps in the dim light.

"Is that thing useful for you?" The second wife sneered, put away the last pile of washed bowls, and walked towards the kitchen, "I've been pretending for a few days, but I haven't caught a single thief!"

"I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, but I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it. Although Ye Jiwu did what happened before, it doesn't mean that others don't want to do it anymore," Ye Qiongdan stroked the messy hair on his sideburns, making sure that the traps were not broken. After that, he said pointedly, "Don't sleep too much tonight."

"I haven't slept soundly for several nights," the second daughter-in-law curled her lips, "Isn't it a good idea to be so worried? Why don't you ask a fortune teller to do a fortune teller to see when our shop will suffer?"

"Anyway, don't sleep too hard tonight. The rope is by the kitchen stove. If you catch someone, tie them up first and send them to the government early tomorrow morning." Ye Qiongdan solemnly instructed.

"You're so sure, you think you're a fortune teller!" The second daughter-in-law said nonchalantly.

"Just treat me as a fortune teller!"

The second daughter-in-law didn't take Ye Qiongdan's words to heart, and fell asleep peacefully that night.

Unexpectedly, when he slept until midnight, he was awakened by a scream.

She quickly lit the oil lamp on the bedside table with a torch, and hurried out the door with the lampstand in hand. Unexpectedly, just as she stepped into the yard, she was startled by a dark figure on her back.

Ye Qiongxiang also hurried out the door, and quickly walked to the second wife's side: "Mother, have you caught a thief?"

When the thief saw someone coming, he wanted to run away immediately.

Originally, his left foot was only caught by the trap, but now that he was running, even his right foot was caught by the trap. Now, he couldn't run even if he wanted to!

The thief didn't dare to speak, he leaned against the wall, and didn't dare to take a breath.

The daughter-in-law of the second room bravely took a step forward holding the oil lamp, and the faint light of the fire immediately illuminated his figure.

This is a skinny little thief with sly eyebrows and mouse eyes. The thief tried his best to move his face to the wall, not daring to face the second daughter-in-law directly!
The second daughter-in-law carefully avoided the traps around him, walked around him, and saw that there was no dagger or anything like that on him, she immediately laughed: "Boy, today, you have fallen into the hands of my old lady." !"

The daughter-in-law of the second room is used to doing farm work, she is strong and strong, but she is not afraid of a thin and weak thief!

She went into the kitchen and brought a roll of thick rope, quickly tied up the thief and dragged him into the kitchen.

Now, she was convinced by Ye Qiongdan!
I didn't expect that girl's premonition to be so accurate, saying something happened tonight, something really happened tonight!
The daughter-in-law of the second room motioned her daughter to put the oil lamp on the stove, and said to the terrified thief, "Tell me, what do you want to do here?"

"No, I didn't do anything. I was hunted down and wanted to hide in your yard." The hairy thief rolled his eyes and immediately made up a reason.

"Oh, the compilation is even more bizarre than the storybook. You are a three-year-old child!" The second daughter-in-law squatted down and searched him. After a while, she found a large packet of medicinal powder. what?"

"flour."

The second daughter-in-law wanted to scare him, so she handed the package of about half a catty of medicine powder to Xiang Yatou: "Make it for him to drink!"

Xiang girl reached out to remove the oiled paper bag, and the thief trembled in fright: "I, I said, it's poisonous powder! Eating it will make people convulse and foam at the mouth. No, but, no one can die... "

The daughter-in-law of the second room became angry when she heard this, raised her hand and slapped the thief several times with all her strength, and said angrily: "I have no grudges with you in the past, but you dare to harm us, Do you still have humanity?"

"Mom! Stop beating! It's wrong to use lynching!" Xiang girl hurried forward and grabbed the second wife.

The second daughter-in-law took a breath, and said angrily, "I'll send you to see the official tomorrow morning!"

"Auntie, girl, please forgive me. I have an 80-year-old mother and a child waiting to be fed. I can't afford to go to jail," the other party begged immediately, "Someone gave me money to make me I sneaked into your yard in the middle of the night and poisoned your well water, and they were afraid that the medicine powder would be diluted by the well water, so they specially gave me a big bag!"
