Chapter 788: Thinking too highly of yourself(1/2)
"My two uncles are so kind to girls. I have never seen such a large coral stone bonsai before, and I have never heard of it." Li Xia carefully organized the things sent by the Li family.
Gu Yu registered the same, and smiled without raising his head: "What have we seen before I followed the girl? If you ask me, this pair of red coral bonsais is the second largest, mainly because it has a good meaning, and it is suitable for placement.
The new house is happy and beautiful."
Daohua sat at the window, listening to the two people muttering, while quickly sewing. Her wedding dress had been made, and she was now making Xiao Yeyang's wedding dress.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a red rose flew in from the window and landed on the embroidery.
Daohua raised her head and looked at the flowers swaying outside the window. The corners of her mouth turned up involuntarily. She pondered for a moment and looked at Guyu and Lixia: "Have everything been sorted out?"
Guyu smiled and replied: "Everything is registered."
Daohua: "After registration, send it to the warehouse."
Guyu and Lixia nodded, called a few maids, took their things and left the room.
As soon as they left, Xiao Yeyang jumped in from the window.
Daohua looked at him coquettishly: "Now you are getting more and more comfortable climbing walls and windows."
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "I want to come in through the front door. Aren't I afraid that you won't be happy?" After saying that, he sat next to Daohua and asked with a smile, "Why did you call me over? You missed me?"
Daohua glared at him: "Who told you to sit down? Stand up quickly and I will re-measure you to prevent the clothes from not fitting properly."
Xiao Yeyang said "Oh", stood up from his seat, raised his arms and looked at Daohua: "Measure it."
"Wait!"
Daohua found a soft ruler and started measuring Xiao Yeyang.
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua who was working hard with a smile: "The wedding dress is ready, I'll come over and try it on again."
Daohua: "I will send the clothes to you directly, you don't have to make a special trip."
Xiao Yeyang: "What if the wedding dress is not suitable? I'd better give it a try."
Daohua raised her eyes and looked at him: "If it doesn't suit you, just wear it."
Xiao Yeyang stared: "How can we make do with this?"
Daohua ignored him. After taking the measurements, she took a pen and wrote them down carefully. After writing them down, she looked at Xiao Yeyang: "Okay, you can go."
Xiao Yeyang was speechless: "You really just throw it away after use!" After saying that, he sat on the chair, poured himself a cup of tea and sipped it slowly.
When Daohua saw him, she didn't chase him away. She sat down in front of the embroidery frame again and continued to embroider wedding clothes.
Xiao Yeyang drank tea and looked at the rice flowers. After a while, he said: "The Japanese pirates have made some serious noise in the south this year. Now the north is relatively stable. Next year, Uncle Huang may expand the navy."
Daohua looked up at Xiao Yeyang: "So?"
Xiao Yeyang: "The expansion will definitely require manpower. I think your fourth brother can go for it."
Daohua looked surprised: "Fourth brother? Why not third brother?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled: "Wen Tao is careful and steady in his work, so he is more suitable to stay in Jinlingwei for development; while Wen Kai is more passionate and energetic, and the navy is expanding and developing, so it is suitable for him to venture into it.
”
Daohua: "What did Fourth Brother say himself?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said: "That guy has always wanted to be a general, so naturally he wants to give it a try." Seeing Daohua frowning, he added, "Uncle Huang just mentioned this matter, and it will have to wait until next year to implement it.
As long as you know this, there’s no need to think too much about it now.”
Daohua nodded, but based on her understanding of her fourth brother, if she really had the chance, he would definitely go.
......
Time flies by day by day, and it’s mid-October in the blink of an eye.
"What? My eldest uncle wants to marry Yile for my third cousin?"
Daohua looked at Mrs. Li blankly, with a look of disbelief.
Mrs. Li glared at her daughter: "What do you mean by yelling?" Even though her eldest brother told her about this, she was also surprised.
"No, why did uncle suddenly have this idea?" Daohua looked puzzled.
Mrs. Li sighed: "It was your third cousin who took a fancy to you."
Daohua said "ah".
Mrs. Li: "It's not this time yet. We all live under the same roof. I am happy and playful. I am also the most active at your grandmother's place. From time to time, your third cousin has secretly fallen in love with her."
Daohua shook her head, shrugged and said, "Then the third cousin may be falling out of love."
Mrs. Li looked at her daughter: "You also think Yile won't be willing?"
Daohua: "Mom, it's not like you don't know Yile's temperament. She looks most like the second aunt. Think about what kind of families the second aunt married the second brother."
"Yi Le has been high-spirited since she was a child. Now that she has a better choice, how can she like... her third cousin?"
Mrs. Li looked unhappy: "Is your third cousin bad?" She snorted, "If she hadn't relied on us, what good choice would she have had?"
After a moment of silence, Mrs. Li said again: "Actually, I don't think highly of Yile. This girl Yile doesn't have the knowledge of Yihuan to know how to behave properly. Your third cousin has a gentle personality, but Yile is arrogant and arrogant. He can't suppress her.
Live her."
Daohua nodded in agreement.
Mrs. Li pondered for a moment: "However, since your uncle has already spoken, I still want to ask the second roommate for his opinion."
That afternoon, Mrs. Li called Zhu Qiyun to the main courtyard.
Zhu Qiyun smiled and asked: "Auntie, what do you want to see me for?"
Mrs. Li smiled and said: "Nothing, I just want to talk to you." After that, she gestured to Zhu Qiyun to drink tea. She also picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and then said tentatively, "Yi Huan's marriage has been decided. For
Yile, what do you and Wenjie think?"
Zhu Qiyun quickly put down her tea cup: "Before leaving the house, my father-in-law and mother-in-law specifically told me that after entering Beijing, we will listen to my uncle and aunt for everything."
Mrs. Li smiled: "What do you think of Chen Zhi?"
Hearing this, Zhu Qiyun's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
The eldest aunt will not mention her natal nephew for no reason. Does she want to marry Yile to her natal family?

Looking at Zhu Qiyun, who didn't have any joy, but looked embarrassed, the smile on Mrs. Li's face faded a little. No matter what, the Li family was her natal family, and she couldn't feel comfortable seeing her natal family being rejected.
Zhu Qiyun noticed that she had not managed her expression well and quickly made up for it, saying a lot of good things about Li Chenzhi.
Mrs. Li smiled lightly and said: "Chen Zhi is not as good as you said. Okay, let's not talk about him. Let's talk about Yile. Go back and ask her for me to see what kind of family she wants to find. Ask
After that, give me a reply."
Zhu Qiyun smiled stiffly and nodded.
......
"I just said that my eldest aunt has a kind face and a cold heart. You still insist on saying otherwise. Do you believe it now? She wants to betroth me to her natal nephew who is a merchant. She really dares to think about it!"
Yan Yile yelled in the room angrily.
"Shut up!"
Yan Wenjie looked at Yan Yile with an ugly expression.
Yan Yile's face was filled with dissatisfaction: "Are you still mean to me? Are you my brother? Didn't you see that others were bullying your sister?"
Zhu Qiyun couldn't stand listening anymore: "Fourth sister, what you said is too serious."
Yan Yile snorted coldly: "It hasn't happened to you. Of course you can stand and talk without backache."
"Fourth sister!" Yan Yihuan stood up and pulled Yan Yile and looked at her warningly: "Don't talk to your sister-in-law like this."
Yan Yile snorted and turned her head to the side.
Seeing Yan Yihuan looking at her apologetically, Zhu Qiyun shook her head at her, and then continued to look at Yan Yile: "Fourth sister, at your age, it is normal for you to look at others. My eldest aunt just mentioned it today and came to visit.
You're just trying to find out what we're talking about, and I didn't say that I had to marry you to the Li family. You really don't need to be so angry."
Yan Yile became even more angry: "Why am I not angry? Her daughter married into the prince's palace, and the concubine also said she was from a good family, even the second sister, and she was appointed to be a successor anyway. Why did she become a businessman when she came to me?
This is not a violation of me, what is this?"
Yan Wenjie frowned and looked at Yan Yile: "Fourth sister, what kind of family do you want to marry? What kind of family do you think you can marry into?"
Yan Yile paused, and then said confidently: "We have the same upbringing as eldest sister. We can do what eldest sister knows. She can marry into the prince's palace, even if we are shorter than her and marry into an ordinary family."
It’s always okay to be from an official family.”
Yan Wenjie laughed angrily: "My eldest sister has a father and brother to rely on. What do you have? My father is still farming in my hometown. I am just a scholar now. You can stand in the capital now only because of the support of your uncle and aunt."
Lian, I really want to ask you, what are you so proud of?"
Hearing this, Yan Yile's eyes suddenly turned red with anger, turned around and ran out.
Yan Yihuan saw it and quickly chased him out.
