Chapter 29 Think too plump
Xue Rouer was very confused. If she told Yuchan that she was planning to let Ling Muran recognize the emperor and find a way out for the Xue family and the Wang family, then the fourth prince would definitely take action. But if he told her that she was on the side of the fourth prince,
That Hong Zhu will definitely kill her and silence her.
After thinking about it, she decided to deceive Yu Chan, so she said: "As I said just now, Ling Muran cannot compare with the fourth prince, whether it is the prestige or knowledge in the court, Ling Muran can't do it.
Let's put it this way, even if the emperor felt sorry for Ling Muran's biological mother and made him the prince out of guilt, is he the material? We both know the emperor's body, and there is no way he can wait until Ling Muran has the ability.
When inheriting the throne, being a prince may not necessarily make you an emperor."
Yu Chan thought for a moment and said, "That's right. I'm just afraid that the emperor has selfish motives."
Xue Rou'er comforted: "I have told you everything I want to say, and one more thing, why does Ling Muran become the emperor? It's not that I underestimate him, but that he is not that material at all. As an emperor, you must like
He is angry without being visible, but what about him? He is capricious in doing things, turns his back faster than turning the pages of a book, and he thinks too highly of himself. Such a person cannot become a wise king at all."
After hearing this, Yu Chan said with a little peace of mind: "I think so too, how can Ling Muran compare to the fourth prince?"
Xue Rou'er felt relieved and said with a smile: "Okay, these things are beyond our control. While Cuijin Pavilion is being renovated, let's go to Xizhuang to have a look. Xizhuang must be very busy now."
Yuchan said: "Why don't we go tomorrow and have a day of rest today. Anyway, I have the master to help me take care of it."
Xue Rouer nodded and said: "Okay, you and Yu Nu should also choose some luxurious clothes. Don't dress plainly like me. Now I want to wear the most expensive ones, and you have to follow me and wear expensive ones."
Yu Chan smiled and said: "Miss, are you trying to show off?"
Xue Rou'er nodded and said: "Yes, I just want to show off in the market and let all the people know that Ling Muran is not worthy of me at all."
Yuchan nodded, but then thought of something and asked: "Miss, do you think Ling Muran will meet with the emperor?"
Xue Rou'er thought for a moment and said: "This matter is not something I can decide, just let it take its course."
Yuchan hummed, feeling quite upset. She didn't know whether she should report this matter to the fourth prince.
Xue Rouer saw her thoughts and said, "You can say what you want, but you have to tell him that Ling Muran will never be as good as him."
Seeing that her thoughts were revealed, Yu Chan smiled sheepishly and said, "I'm so accustomed to wearing whatever clothes I want."
Xue Rou'er smiled slightly and put the matter aside without anyone mentioning it again. Yu Chan also felt that none of the ten Ling Muran could compare to the fourth prince, so she did not report the matter.
The next day, the three of them came to Xizhuang.
Xizhuang is very busy. The farmer has harvested the first batch and started planting the second batch. The whole Xizhuang is filled with the scent of new oil, which is so strong that it makes people have a headache.
When Feng Xi saw Xue Rou'er dressed up, she was surprised and said: "Sister Rou'er, are you going to choose a concubine?"
Feng Hai's eyes widened when he saw it, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.
Xue Rou'er smiled and said: "No, I just think that in the future I will have a lot of money, and I will not have to worry about food and clothing. I should dress up, otherwise what would I do with so much money? Do you have nothing to do to count the money?"
Feng Xi smiled and said, "That's right. I used to be frugal, but now that my wallet is rich, it's time to dress myself up."
Feng Hai's face was slightly red and he said: "The first batch of oil has been transported. Now this is the second batch. There is still a lot of food. What should we do?"
Xue Rouer thought for a moment and said: "Go and buy some porcelain bottles that can hold one or two oils, and then bring them to the capital to distribute them for free."
Feng Hai said anxiously: "One tael per person for free? How much will we lose?"
Xue Rouer said: "This is a new thing, what if you don't let them try it for free? As long as they know how good this oil is, don't be afraid of not having money in the future."
Feng Xi smiled and said: "Thank you for being in charge. This is called fishing. How can you not give up some bait if you want to catch big fish?"
Feng Hai's eyes lit up and he said: "Yes, why didn't I think of it. If the price was high from the beginning, no one would care about it. When they are satisfied with the meal, they will have endless aftertaste. I'm afraid they won't take the money.
Do you want to buy it?”
Feng Xi said: "I finally got the idea, why don't you go find the bottle quickly?"
Feng Hai nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go right away."
Feng Xi held Xue Rouer's arm and said with a smile: "Brother is a bit stupid."
Xue Rouer said: "You are too honest. By the way, where are those pods and bean poles?"
Feng Xi said: "Keep it for firewood!"
Xue Rou'er smiled and said: "That's a pity. It's all sent to feed the livestock, otherwise there wouldn't be so much fodder to feed the animals in winter."
Feng Xi smiled and said: "It has been transported a long time ago, just to tease you."
Xue Rou'er couldn't help but roll her eyes and said, "How did you get those beans?"
Feng Xi said: "I'll take you to see it."
When we arrived at the grain drying field, a group of people were beating the bean poles with sticks, and another area was used to dry the recently harvested crops.
Feng Xi said: "The weather has been good these days, and the sun has dried it, so it fell down after a while."
Xue Rouer sighed: "This is too labor-intensive. Are there not enough manpower in that kind of land?"
Feng Xi nodded and said, "That's right, so my brother transferred some people from Dongzhuang."
Xue Rouer said: "Go find a stonemason and ask him to make a roller as big and thick as this, and let people pull it back and forth on the dried pods on horseback. This is faster than hammering and saves labor."
Feng Xi hugged Xue Rou'er fiercely and kissed her: "My good sister, your mind is really bright. If you had done this earlier, we wouldn't have been exhausted."
Xue Rou'er smiled and said, "Aren't I busy?"
Feng Xi suddenly lowered her face and said, "I know, it was Ling Muran who hit you. Can you tell me why?"
Xue Rou'er smiled bitterly and said: "Yu Wenmo wanted to take me to elope that day, but he pulled me and I couldn't break away. As a result, Xue Qing'er bumped into me, and Yu Wenmo kicked her, and she had a miscarriage."
Feng Xi said: "Oh, no wonder Ling Muran is angry, but do you really want to elope?"
Xue Rou'er smiled and said: "My sister, you said I don't want to leave such a huge mountain of gold, so why should I elope?"
Feng Xi smiled stupidly: "Yes, that should be Yu Wenmo's wishful thinking, but Yu Wenmo doesn't seem to be an impulsive person. Is there any other reason?"
