"No, Cao Yilan and I have absolutely no personal relationship." Cai Qi denied it.

In front of him, Fu Jiuqu was lazily leaning on the back of his chair, sipping tea carelessly. His appearance was incompatible with the tense and cramped atmosphere in the study.

"Chonglou, believe me, how could I do that kind of thing to make you sorry? That's all their nonsense, don't listen to it..."

Cai Qi was so anxious that his throat was filled with smoke. In order to explain, his voice was a little hoarse.

"I was really ordered to ask Cao Yilan what she had to do with the servant who cut down the pig pen. How could she have known that she was so unlucky that her wet nurse bumped into her? What's even more outrageous is that this idiot Cao Yilan just didn't explain it.

, actually nodded and admitted..."

The more he talked, the angrier he became, and his teeth were almost broken.

"How could I be that kind of person when I'm a pure person? Chonglou, you have to help me with this matter, otherwise, I would jump into the Yellow River and not even be able to clean myself..."

Fu Jiuqu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and looked at him.

"Cao Mansion never said anything about this."

"Didn't say? Where did you know that?"

"Guess. If not, why did Cao Yilan break off the engagement?"

Fu Jiuqu's eyes widened when he saw Cai Qi being nervous, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and he sighed slowly.

"Don't worry, this matter will not be spread among the Cao family. As long as you don't say it, and she doesn't say it, no one will know..."

Cai Qi was startled.

It took him a moment to realize what Fu Jiuqu meant.

"You don't believe me, do you? This isn't a question of whether others say it or not, it's a matter of my reputation. Tell me, if I really did something that was worse than an animal, would we brothers still have to do it?"

Fu Jiuqu looked at him with interest for a moment, then raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I don't mind."

"Are you crazy?" Cai Qi's face was full of collapse, "That's your fiancée's room!"

"No more." Fu Jiuqu smiled lowly. He picked up the tea cup from the table with his slender white hands, lowered his head, and slowly blew on the water.

"Cao Yilan is a little arrogant and domineering, but she is just right for you... No matter what, the brotherhood between you and me will never change."

Cai Qi felt relieved, and then shouted that he was wronged.

"How can I be worthy of it? I capsized in the gutter and was harmed by that bastard Cao Yilan. I heard the nanny coming in, and I was about to leave... She dragged me to the bed, wanting to hide away.

In the past... I didn't expect that she would betray her in the face of battle, repay kindness with revenge, and trap me in injustice! Fortunately, I always protected her and helped her, but I didn't expect that she would support me! "

As he said this, Cai Qi was about to cry.

Fu Jiuqu, on the other hand, had a calm expression and occasionally smiled.

"Then are you going to marry me or not?"

"..."

This question stopped Cai Qi.

He secretly glanced at Fu Jiuqu's face and saw nothing unusual, then sighed.

"It's like this, what can I do? If she wants to marry, I have to marry her. You don't even know that now the Cao family has regarded me as a prostitute who has humiliated her girl... If I refuse to marry, the Cao family will

Just making a stumbling block is enough for me to drink a pot."

I don’t know if he was really angry to the extreme. At the end of his speech, Cai Qi’s throat became choked and his eyes became red.

~~

The news that the Cao family broke off their engagement did not cause much of a stir in Beijing. Perhaps it was because someone deliberately suppressed public opinion. In just a few lines in the tabloid, it was said that Miss Cao and Prince Guangling had no interest in each other, so the elders obeyed.

In accordance with the wishes of the children, the engagement was peacefully terminated.

Under the guidance of thoughtful people, this matter even turned into a wave of divorces in Bianjing City.

Royal relatives respect the wishes of their children before deciding to marry, let alone common people?

For a time, there were countless people crying and clamoring to break off the engagement. There was a lot of excitement in the ten miles and eight streets, and few people asked Miss Cao why she wanted to break off the engagement.

The marriage between Cao Mansion and Kaiguo Hou Mansion was decided in a calm atmosphere.

Both parties are extremely low-key, with almost no news coming out.

Judging from her family background, Miss Cao is considered a married woman. Although some people speculated that this marriage was related to the ridiculous incident in Wuzhanghe, the discussions were just rumors. The Cao and Cai Mansion kept silent about this and quickly settled on it.

wedding date.

The Cao Mansion schedule is very urgent and in a hurry, because they are afraid that Cao Yilan will get pregnant before she has passed the house. They have their own considerations, but others are confused -

When I first married into the eldest princess' palace, I had to find someone to ask for fortune-telling, and all the procedures were flawless. Why do I have to marry a girl now?

There has never been a shortage of rumors in Bianjing City, and Xin Yi herself was one of them. Therefore, even if she heard about it, she did not participate in the discussion. She even specifically told everyone in the medicine shop not to talk about Miss Cao to the outside world, no matter whether it was good or bad.

Not allowed to participate.

Everyone in the medicine shop was from Xinyi, so they knew her situation. No matter who came to inquire about anything, they all had no clue. The people in Ma Xing Street gradually lost interest in asking questions.

Xin Yi is very busy these days.

The house was renovated and an upper floor was built. According to Xin Yi's original idea, a countertop was built on the second floor that extends directly to the Wuzhang River. One beam and one pillar, not flashy or luxurious, but solemn and majestic, in line with the overall appearance of the medicine shop.

very similar, and

The courtyard next door was transformed into a layout that alternates between residences and pharmaceutical factories. Because the place is spacious, a small courtyard was left to grow flowers and vegetables according to Xin Yi's idea. The area near the Wuzhang River was introduced into the canal water to make a drainage.

Pond, planted with lotus roots...

The two sides are combined into one, and the courtyard has a clear layout, making it easy to come and go.

Xin Yi specially set aside a vegetable plot and cultivated the peppers, corns and tomatoes given to her by Fu Jiuqu.

In order to avoid failure in planting, she was very cautious. She planted half of the seeds and left half. According to the method she saw when she went to the farm to collect information, she planted them ridge after ridge in an orderly manner. From planting to germination, she took care of it with her own hands every day, fearing that

Something went wrong.

April has arrived in a blink of an eye.

Each seed grows into a tender green seedling, which is pleasing to look at...

Xin Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The peppers, corns and tomatoes of the Northern Song Dynasty, how precious were they?

There was silence all around, and Xin Yi stood in the courtyard, feeling the cool breeze blowing slightly, and was filled with joy.

"Mother." Sannian came in slowly, observed Xin Yi's face, and said in a low voice: "Our Jiaojiao, Mimi and Qieqie have all grown up, why doesn't Uncle Fu come..."

Jiaojiao, Mimi and Qieqie are the nicknames given by Sannian to these rare plants. Xinyi has always let her call them, but hearing her mention Fu Jiuqu again gave her a headache.

My first thought is to respect Fu Jiuqu.

The second thought is fear.

The third thought is love.

The love is like a biological father, and not seeing each other for a few days is like not seeing each other for several lifetimes.

For the past half month, Fu Jiuqu didn't know what he was busy with. He was always coming and going in a hurry, and left without saying a few words. He was more polite and polite than before. Every three or five months, he would come to the doctor in person.

If you take a look at the child, you may send someone to bring some toys to play with. You must keep the distance between uncle and sister-in-law and maintain the sense of propriety between uncle and sister-in-law.

Not close, not far, but definitely not ignoring them.

But this little girl seemed to have been abandoned by her own father. As she talked, she almost shed tears...

"Uncle Fu hasn't been here for a long time. Does he want to marry a wife and have children again, instead of the Three Treasures?"

Xin Yi's ears were almost hearing hallucinations from her shouting.

Uncle Fu, Uncle Fu, Uncle Fu...

She knelt down and looked at San Nian seriously.

"How about this? Next time your Uncle Fu comes over, I will give you to him? That way, no matter who he marries or how many children he has, you can be with him..."

"No." Sannian's mouth tightened, and her eyes immediately turned red, as if she was about to cry, "I want Uncle Fu, and I want my mother. I want us all to be together."
