"She wants to leave on her own. Why am I angry? If my aunt is angry, she should also lecture my nephew. How could she run away on her own?" Brother Rong argued.

You Shi Ruo pointed out: "No matter what you are doing, I only think that she left because of your arrival. The servants can only see Grandma Xi Fuzhu returning from our house with a bad expression on her face."

, if it spreads out, it will make outsiders misunderstand that our family is bullying a chaste woman."

Bullying cannot be considered bullying.

Uncle Rong was willing to give such precious things and even feed them himself. Brother Rong curled his lips and thought, Mrs. Youshi didn't see the way Grandma Zhu had her mouth full of food.

"Okay, okay. I'll go over and apologize right now," Jia Rong said.

Youshi didn't come back either. Brother Rong had no choice but to watch Youshi holding his eldest brother in his arms, and privately thought about how to bring his eldest brother back to Keqing's courtyard.

At the right time, a little maid came in. When she saw the people in the room, the maid first greeted Uncle Rong, then she walked up to Youshi, raised her hand and raised her five fingers to talk to Youshi.

Uncle Pian Rong didn't know what the maid said, so he could only look at Que'er behind him. After the little maid had finished speaking, Youshi calmly told the eldest brother and the nanny: "The child is tired today, take him down."

Rest and take good care of yourself."

Youshi looked at Brother Rong again. "I'm going to go to the backyard right now. Ronger should go and apologize. Don't stay in my courtyard and make noise."

The owner of the courtyard was not there either, and it was difficult for Jia Rong to stay. He told her to leave in person, and had no choice but to leave the room and leave the courtyard.

After leaving the hall, Uncle Rong curled his lips and said, "What did the maid and madam say mysteriously?"

Xiaoque'er replied: "It's not a strange thing this time. The maid who just came here told the wife about the You family's affairs in the small courtyard behind, which seems to be related to the marriage of the second girl You. The old lady of the You family asked her to come over and wanted to ask for help.

My wife helped."

"Second aunt's marriage? Didn't she promise it long ago?" Brother Rong said in surprise.

Xiao Queer smiled and said: "I can even find out the daily taste of Princess Zhongshun, but how come I don't even know about the marriage of relatives at home?"

"What do you know? I'll repay the favor by treating the princess well." Brother Rong snorted lightly, "Not to mention that the old lady of the You family brought her two biological daughters to become the wife and stepmother. The old lady of the You family went there again.

Good morning, we are the Jishan family and we don’t lack the money. They come to our door to provide food, clothing, and hospitality. Seriously, this old lady and the two sisters have not yet gotten married to the Jia Xiao brothers who are related to each other from the back street."

There is another point that Brother Rong didn't mention. As a family gets bigger, there are more relatives. I don't know how many such relatives there are, and they don't have much contact with each other on a daily basis. How can we get close to each other?

Not to mention, Brother Rong was originally a relative of Li Daitao. Moreover, even the You family was married to Jia Zhen later to fill the house. How could You family’s unrelated relatives who had no blood relationship and did not have much contact with each other be considered relatives?

Of course, Mrs. You often comes to the house on her own initiative, but she always has the idea of ​​​​taking Qiu Feng.

At least they would bring something with them when they came to the house, even if they just brought a few cucumbers and green onions. It didn’t matter how much they were worth, or whether they were in short supply in the house. They even temporarily bought two in Nancheng for one or two cents.

Bitter cakes are better than empty-handed ones.

Xiao Queer said: "The old lady of the You family is also shrewd. She even asked our grandma to come here a few days ago."

Brother Rong asked: "Oh? What is it?"

"What else can there be? It turns out that the second sister of the You family arranged a baby marriage with someone who was the head of the imperial grain farm outside the city. The Zhang family failed to live up to expectations. In recent years, the Zhang family has been worse than ever and has fallen into decline early. In my heart,

I thought that the second sister, who was born like a flower, would marry into the Zhang family and suffer hardships, and waste the dowry provided by the family in vain. So I decided to ask grandma to come forward and go to the Zhang family to help the second sister break off the engagement."

"Cancel the engagement? Will the Zhang family be willing?"

"I don't want to come over there, otherwise I wouldn't ask to come to the house." Xiaoque'er guessed, and then said to Uncle Rong: "If I were from the Zhang family, I wouldn't want to. It's nothing to be like this.

With a beautiful daughter-in-law, she can also be related to Duke Ningguo's family. As long as there is a smart-minded person in the family, the Zhang family will become rich."

"You've calculated well. There are so many relatives at home, so where can everyone get up?"

Xiaoqueer smiled and said: "The life that the uncle lives in the mansion is naturally different from the life that they live in the village. Two days ago, I heard that the girls in the garden were preparing to prepare a banquet. After calculating the twenty taels of silver, I still felt that it was too little.

If the money is not enough, the 20 taels left on the farm can be enough for a year. As long as the Zhang family is smarter, even if they pick up a small job, they will be considered rich."

That's right, a few dozen taels of silver is a small amount of money for a family like the Jia family, but it is a lot of money for ordinary people outside the city.

Brother Rong asked with a smile: "What happened to your grandma?"

Xiao Queer said: "Grandma didn't say much, but Mrs. You kept talking about how ruined the Zhang family was, how Zhang Hua was useless, and how Zhang Hua and the Zhang family's father had broken off the father-son relationship."

"It is indeed a fire pit." Brother Rong said helplessly, "If the You family wants to break off the engagement, it will be a lose-lose method for both parties. Since they have come up with this method, they must compensate the Zhang family. If the Zhang family does not need much money,

Just ask your grandma to take the money and settle the matter."

Brother Zhaorong's idea is that if you can solve the problem with money, don't use anything else. If the You family often comes to disturb you, you might as well send dozens of taels of silver and let the You family and the Zhang family solve the problem by themselves.

Xiaoque'er replied: "How can they be willing? They just want someone in the house to come forward."

Brother Rong thought about it carefully, and he understood what Mrs. You was thinking. No matter who proposed breaking off the engagement first, it would be bad for the reputation of the other party. It would be fine if it could be resolved amicably, but if the Zhang family was angered during the negotiation,

In the end, Second Sister You not only had the title of being engaged, but also lost her reputation.

Jia Rong sighed, "They can do whatever they want. If they ask for anything, just ask the wife to take care of it. Whether the wife is willing to find someone to break off the engagement, or she is willing to give money to the You family to deal with it, I agree to it no matter what."

Xiaoque'er nodded in agreement and said, "Grandma said the same thing. After all, they are relatives in the wife's family. We are all juniors in our courtyard. It is up to the wife to make the decision."

Brother Rong shook his head indifferently, but Li Wan was nowhere to be seen. He had to look in the direction of Huifang Garden, and asked Que'er to find the passing maid to find out which way Grandma Zhu went.

The little bird rolled her eyes leisurely.

After a while, Brother Rong finally found Grandma Zhu at a pavilion near the water in Huifang Garden.

"Auntie is here? This is a good place. I haven't noticed in the past, but there are actually a few banana plants here." Brother Rong walked over with a smile, not looking unfamiliar at all. He pointed to a place in surprise and said

: "My aunt is really unique in her beauty. Others are admiring lotus flowers by the water, but what I am admiring here are banana flowers."

Li Wan cast a sidelong glance at him and said coldly: "You are the first person who can mistake a canna for a banana."

Brother Rong didn't know that the canna plants next to the pavilion were bananas. Although the leaves of plantains and cannas are similar in shape, they are quite different in other places.

The biggest difference is that the banana stem is as thick as a human leg, while the canna stem is only as thin as a finger. The banana tree is about one foot tall, while the canna tree is less than half a foot tall. Its flowers are also different. The banana flower fruit is like a red heart, and the pieces are withered.

Small banana fruits are revealed at the back. Cannas are mostly red and yellow in color, and their petals are as soft as a beauty wearing a long skirt.

Brother Rong walked over quickly, took Li Wan's hand and said, "So this is called Canna. No wonder the enchanting flowers can match the beauty of the palace judge."

Before Li Wan could react, the little bird next to him rolled his eyes, and Su Yun behind Li Wan even snickered.

Brother Rong glared at the two maids angrily and said, "Is it possible that I made a mistake? Yeah, I must have been thinking too much lately. When I saw the palace judge, my eyes were all fixed on the palace judge's body and he refused to move away. He didn't even take a closer look at this.

The appearance of Canna flowers. Although Canna is called a beauty, the person who named it must have never seen a real beauty. This flower is not even half as good as our Grandma Zhu."

The most beautiful time for a woman is when she has a straight face and can't help but want to smile.

This is how Li Gongcai is now. She snorted from her flawless little nose and shook off Brother Rong's dishonest hand. Then she kept a straight face, trying to look serious, but she couldn't bear it.

Live with a smile.

Li Wan tried her best to keep a straight face, but even her eyes squinted into a smile. She also saw the smile on Brother Rong's face, as well as the faces of Su Yun and Xiao Que'er. She couldn't help but laugh: "Pick it up for me now."

I heard it said that when I was in front of You just now, I don’t know who blamed me for sowing trouble in your house."

Brother Rong screamed and said angrily: "What kind of bastard is using such malicious thoughts to speculate on our kind-hearted Aunt Zhu? Please also tell me that I will uphold justice for the palace magistrate and go and arrest her immediately."

He peeled off the skin and sent him to a damp, dark mountain cave, where he died of coldness."

"Hey." Li Wan looked at him sideways.

"The palace judge is not talking about me, is he?" Brother Rong replied in surprise, "Well... well, I will also punish Uncle Xiao Rong by peeling off the skin tonight and sending him to a humid and dark cave."

Li Wan felt something was wrong after listening to it. After looking at Brother Rong for a while, he realized that this bastard had a weird smile on his face. After carefully considering Brother Rong's words, a blush appeared on his face. She glanced at Su Yun next to her, Que'er

The two maids, they still didn't understand.

The palace judge had no choice but to stab Brother Rong secretly with his eyes.

"Although the world is big, every place is owned by an owner, and you can't just lock people up wherever you want. If you want to go in, the master may not let you in."

"I don't believe there's nothing I can't win."

"I believe this." Li Gongcai said leisurely, "After all, the scenery in Yixia Pavilion is good, especially the dusk and night view there, which is really nostalgic. So much so that some people want to go to Yixia Pavilion even when it gets dark.

Go, I really miss you so much."

Um?

Why are you talking about Yixia Pavilion?

Brother Rong's eyes rolled around, but he remembered that he had indeed been resting in Yixia Pavilion at night recently. But how did Li Wan know about it? There was a traitor in the mansion.

Uncle Rong immediately looked at Que'er behind him. The only one who knew where he went every night was the maid Que'er.

Xiao Que'er looked confused at this moment, not knowing what the uncle meant by his sullen expression.

Grandma Zhu said calmly: "There is an ancient book saying: If you want others to hear it, don't speak it; if you want others to know it, don't do it. If you hadn't stayed late in your wife's courtyard these past few days, I wouldn't have known you every day.

When I come back from doing business in the day, I have to go to Yixia Pavilion to do business at night."

Forehead……

Is this girl jealous?

Brother Rong's heart skipped a beat, it shouldn't have happened. How could Grandma Zhu be someone who gets jealous easily? She is Wang Xifeng again.

His head was spinning rapidly, thinking eagerly, and finally thought of a possibility.

Could it be that he hadn't been to Daoxiang Village for more than ten days in the past ten days, so this girl felt left out, and then she saw him running to Yixia Pavilion several times at night. As the saying goes, it's not about scarcity but about inequality, Li Wan secretly compared it in his mind.

Got angry.

After thinking about the root cause, it was easier to solve. Rong Geer touched his chin and said with a smile: "The palace judge is not bad. He is really busy with official duties recently. It's thanks to the palace judge's help that he sorted out a farming book first, otherwise he would have been so busy at night.
