76. Chapter Seventy-Six: Escaping Marriage
"Hey, my father forced me to marry the Wang family of Jiangnan Weaving Company. Wang Xiong's son, Wang Dabao, is not only ugly, but also a bit stupid. My father insists that I marry into their family. You think I can't run away?
Okay?" Ye Xuan said aggrievedly.
The weaving industry in Jiangnan is booming. Eighty percent of the country's silk and cotton yarn weaving comes from Jiangnan. The Wang family has been in charge of the weaving department for many years and has always been a big family in Jiangnan. Wang Xiong is also the president of the Jiangnan Business Association, and his family industry is also the largest in the country.
Count one to two.
Although the official title of the Weaving Department is only fifth rank, Wang Xiong relies on the strength of his family to have great influence in the Jiangnan area, especially in business. The silk fabrics, satin, and cotton yarns going north and south must be accessed through his nod. In other words
His words and deeds determined the distribution of cloth in the country.
The Wang family and the Ye family are family friends. Ye Xuan and Wang Dabao were born in the same year and month, and they got engaged when they were three years old. Who knew that Wang Dabao had a high fever when he was five years old?
He would shout to anyone he saw: "Dabao, see you every day." Wang Xiong was just a son, so he had no choice but to pray that when he grew up, he could have a son and a half daughter with Ye Xuan, the daughter of the Ye family, to continue the family line.
No, Ye Xuan and Wang Dabao are both nineteen years old this year, and it has been a year since their adult ceremony. It is time for them to get married, and the Wang family came to propose marriage a few days ago.
Ye Shiwen had known for a long time that Wang Dabao was a fool, but due to the fact that the baby's marriage had been arranged long ago, and the voices of the famous Wang and Ye families, he gritted his teeth and agreed. The daughter he had doted on for nineteen years was about to marry
The Wang family is really reluctant to part with it, but they have already arranged a wedding for their baby. As members of the family, face is more important than anything else, so the two families have worked together to prepare for the wedding on the sixth day of next month.
When Ye Xuan learned that he was about to marry that fool, he was so angry that he didn't eat for three days. Seeing that the time was running out, he simply slipped out of the house without anyone noticing and went all the way north to the capital.
I ran into Mingyue Tower last night, looking for Bai Susu, and was able to escape. I didn't expect the servants at home to catch up so quickly. Fortunately, this morning, Yang Yu took out the gold medal to block him.
Ye Xuan calculated that he would not be able to stay in this place. If the three of them went back and reported the matter, his father would definitely be furious and would go to Beijing to find someone in person. At that time, even if the emperor personally issued the order, his father would still have a way to reject it, and even more
What's more, there may be fake gold medals involved, and then the entire Mingyue Tower may not be saved.
"You just plan to keep running like this? That's not an option." Bai Susu said worriedly. After all, the two of them are best friends and share the same love as sisters.
"Then what can we do? We can only take one step at a time. Anyway, I won't marry that fool." Ye Xuan said with his mouth pinched.
I walked out of the room and happened to bump into Wang Wendi who was running out. He was disheveled and his hair was messy. I hurriedly asked: "What's wrong? What happened?" I looked at him as if he had just gotten up, and I was secretly glad.
, he was not present just now, otherwise he would have exposed his lie that the gold medal was a fake.
The movement of the three strong men was louder just now. Wang Wendi didn't know what was going on and thought it was his own soldier who came to the door, so he hurriedly ran out. If Wang Chong knew that his son often died in the brothel, he wouldn't be able to steal him.
Skin.
"It's okay, it's okay." I smiled.
"Oh. I was scared to death. I thought there were officers and soldiers." Wang Wendi said.
I thought to myself, you are the son of the governor of Chang'an, who dares to arrest you?
"Then I'll go in and tidy up first, and I'll come out in a while. Just wait for me." Wang Wendi said and entered Xiao Tiantian's room again.
I returned to the fence on the second floor and sat watching the people coming in and out. I waited for Wang Wendi for a while before he came out. I guess he had been playing for a while. I looked at Bai Susu's room on the other side, but there seemed to be no movement.
