After thinking about this, Liu Yuru knew that Wang Yue had good intentions. She quickly took two steps forward, blessed the courtyard wall, and then said seriously, "Thank you Mr. Wang for your love, Yuru.
Grateful."
Wang Yue waved his hand carelessly, and then said soothingly, "Since you are marrying someone back home, of course you have to be careful. If you need help, just tell me and I will definitely help you solve it."
Liu Yuru's face immediately turned red when she heard what Wang Yue said was sincere and natural. However, she still said cautiously, "It is already a very lucky thing to be favored by the young master. I dare not ask for too much."
Wang Yue was speechless and simply said straightforwardly, "In front of me, there is no need to be so cautious. You just need to be yourself, just like throwing small stones just now. In the future, as long as you are willing to throw, I will
Ask someone to pick it up for you, and I will pick up as much as you throw out."
Liu Yuru looked at Wang Yue blankly, not knowing whether what Wang Yue said was true or not. She just looked at Wang Yue in a daze for a while and didn't say anything for a long time.
Wang Yue did not force Liu Yuru to change her habits. Seeing that Liu Yuru was still worried, he smiled and said, "It's not urgent. It won't be too late to discuss this matter after we get married."
But even though he said this, Liu Yuru still didn't dare to relax and could only deal with Wang Yue cautiously.
Wang Yue was helpless, so he could only talk to Liu Yuru, especially about Yangzhou. From a girl's description, Wang Yue learned about another Yangzhou.
It turned out that in addition to the Gu family, the merchants in Yangzhou City, as well as a few local wealthy families, and other merchants with slightly inferior backgrounds had all been exploited.
When Wang Yue heard this, he was very happy. Fortunately, he had gotten used to it and sent out a message on the first day he came, asking Qingzhou to send more people. Otherwise, he would really not be able to cope with the future situation.
…
Sometimes it's just like that, whatever comes to mind comes to mind.
Wang Yue was still thinking about when the people from Qingzhou would come the first day, but the next day news came from Wang Ping that his brother Wang An had arrived with more than a thousand guards.
These guards were all former masters of the army. Those who were most sincere to the Wang family were selected from the army to form a team, each led by eight deputy commanders.
It’s funny to say that Father Wang is also a funny person. The names of the eight deputy commanders, when combined, mean health, longevity and peace are blessings!
Wang Ping was originally the one who came with Wang Yue, and he had already brought a thousand people. This time Wang An brought another thousand people, which can definitely guarantee his safety.
After Wang Yue received the confirmed news, he quickly went to see Wang An.
Wang An was also waiting for Wang Yue. After he saw Wang Yue, he first saluted and then said respectfully, "Master, I said that I don't bother the two masters. Since I live in the Ye family, let the two masters of the Ye family
Master, please help me propose the marriage."
After he finished speaking, he took a letter from his arms and then continued, "This is a letter from the master to the second master of the Ye family."
Wang Yue nodded. After receiving the letter, he asked with some confusion, "My parents have nothing to say to me?"
Wang Ping smiled and said very respectfully, "Grandpa said that if you don't ask, forget it. If you do, let me tell you. It's good to marry a businesswoman. You can keep a low profile."
Wang Yue immediately understood what was going on. His father was already a military governor. If Wang Yue was allowed to marry the daughter of some prominent family, it would definitely cause uneasiness to other forces.
Now that Wang Yue has married the daughter of a merchant, other governors and even the emperor of the Eastern Capital can feel more at ease with him.
In this case, Wang Yue did not hesitate. He rearranged Wang An and others, and then took the letter to see the second master of the Ye family.
When the second master of the Ye family came back, Wang Yue had already met him before. Now that Wang Yue came to see him again, he was still a little confused, so he asked curiously, "My dear nephew, why do you have time to come here today?"
I’m not going to dig into your walls anymore?”
Wang Yue had a black line on his forehead. It seemed that everyone in the Ye family had known about his actions for a long time. He originally thought he was hiding it well, but now it seems that they are all watching a show.
He was rather thick-skinned and pretended to be casual and said, "Second Uncle Ye, my father has a letter for you and needs you to do a favor for my nephew."
After Uncle Ye received the letter, he opened the envelope and said with a smile, "I guess you asked me to help you propose marriage."
Wang Yue bowed quickly, and then said with a smile, "Second uncle really has good eyesight, you really guessed it."
Second Uncle Ye was just joking. He didn't think Father Wang would let Wang Yue marry a woman from a small businessman. After all, the difference in status was too big.
He felt that since Wang Yue liked her, he would most likely take a concubine. As for the eldest lady, that was basically impossible.
What he didn't expect was that after he read the letter, in addition to reminiscing with him and inviting him to Qingzhou, as for the marriage, it only said that it should be done according to Wang Yue's ideas.
He also looked at Wang Yue in astonishment, pointed at the envelope and said, "Nephew, how did you convince your father? Do you really want to let you go to that merchant's daughter?"
Wang Yue shrugged and said proudly, "Second uncle, what you are saying is that I am marrying a wife, not that my father is marrying a wife. There is no need to go to all this trouble."
Of course Uncle Ye knew that things couldn't be that simple, but he didn't ask any more questions and immediately started helping Wang Yue.
…
Because Wang Yue is relatively far away, many things are purchased here. Fortunately, Wang Yue's family is not short of money. Faced with the Liu family's lion's mouth, they are still satisfied with everything.
Because he was preparing to welcome his bride, it was not suitable for Wang Yue to live in the Ye family. He simply bought a villa near the outside of the city and moved there.
He chose this place because the warships from Qingzhou were not far away and could come to pick them up at any time.
It's just that the house was bought in a hurry, and Wang Yue's men also had to decorate it. In this way, Wang Yue could only continue to live in the Ye family.
But that's okay, it's also convenient for him to chat with Liu Yuru over the wall.
The Ye family pretended to be deaf and dumb, pretending not to see his actions, and no one from the Liu family cared about Liu Yuru. They all hoped that Liu Yuru could win Wang Yue's heart. In that case, they could all enjoy the blessings.
Therefore, these days, from time to time Wang Yue would climb over the wall to chat with Liu Yuru. Sometimes Liu Yuru would ask Xiao Shitou to remind Wang Yue when she wanted to find him.
On this day, Wang Yue was practicing martial arts on the balcony. When he saw Liu Yururu's garden entrance, he knew that he was going to meet him again, so he quickly washed up and prepared to go downstairs to meet Liu Yuru.
Just as he walked downstairs and came to the courtyard wall, someone suddenly walked in from the courtyard door. Even Wang Yue and my men didn't stop him. Only Wang San followed him, like Wang Yue winking.
After Wang San saw Wang Yue, he quickly introduced him respectfully, "Sir, the eldest son of the Ye family is back, and he also lives in our courtyard."
Wang Yue understood what Wang San meant, so he quickly scolded him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? We are guests, and this is the courtyard of Mr. Ye."
After he finished reprimanding him, he bowed to Ye Shi'an, and then said politely, "Brother Ye Shi'an, I'm really sorry. It will take a few days before the yard I bought can be occupied, and I may have to bother you for a while."
Ye Shian was in a very complicated mood now. He thought that while he was going out for the imperial examination, a woman he liked got engaged to someone else, and the matchmaker was his second uncle.
He is a determined person. He can only lament that this is his fate, but he does not force it.
Seeing Wang Yue's extraordinary bearing, he quickly said politely, "Brother Wang Xian, our two families are so close, you just treat this place as your own home, and you don't have to be so outspoken. In fact, I don't even need your house."
bought."
Wang Yue didn't see any grudge against Ye Shi'an, and he felt relieved. After all, he had robbed someone else's woman, and it was nothing. The key was that this person had some relatives with him, which was a bit embarrassing.
Thinking of this, he bowed and said very solemnly, "Brother Ye Shi is very generous. I admire him very much. If the Ye family needs any help in the future, just ask me. As long as I can do it without violating the principle, I will definitely
It won’t be postponed.”
Seeing what Wang Yue said, Ye Shian quickly said politely, "Brother Wang Xian, you don't have to feel so guilty. I think the girl from the Liu family next door is just like Yun'er. She just treats her as an ordinary sister. Her life is not easy. In the future, you
Just take more care of it.”
Seeing what Ye Shi'an said, Wang Yue felt that this matter could be solved, so he chatted enthusiastically with Ye Shi'an.
But not long after Ye Shian and Wang Yue chatted, he couldn't help but yawned, obviously feeling sleepy.
Wang Yue was not an ignorant person, so he quickly smiled and said, "Brother Ye Shi, you are tired from the journey. Go back to your room and rest quickly. I won't disturb Brother Ye Shi."
Ye Shian waved his hand and said humorously, "Thanks to Brother Wang Xian, my father asked me to move to his yard these days. I haven't been so close to my parents for a long time since I was seven years old."
Wang Yue understood that Ye Shian wanted to avoid suspicion. After all, he was dating Liu Yuru in this courtyard. Of course, Ye Shian, a suspicious ex-lover, could not continue to live here.
Since Wang Yue thought clearly, he would not force others to stay, so he accompanied Ye Shian back to his room to get some clothes, and after sending the person out, he returned to the wall.
After reaching the base of the wall, he quickly climbed up the wall and saw Liu Yuru's retreating figure.
Because the snow had just melted and the soil was a little moist, Wang Yue glanced at the footprints under the wall and knew that Liu Yuru must have heard everything just now, which made him very happy.
This can be regarded as a disguised solution to the knot between the two of them. Otherwise, he thought with a sigh, he didn't know what Ye Shian's true character was like, but judging from the things he did, he was really a gentleman.
…
In less than two days, the birthday of the old lady of the Ye family started. Because Liu Yuru was getting married, it was inconvenient to come over, so she could only hide at home and embroider her dowry.
Moreover, because time was so short, Liu Yuru really didn't have time to come next door to join in the fun, so she just sent a painting.
Wang Yue had seen that painting, which was a painting of a heroic female general. He immediately understood that it was for Mrs. Liang herself, not for the Ye family's grandmother Liang.
Of course, this painting was delivered through Wang Yue. After all, Liu Yuru and Wang Yue have now crossed paths, and they are considered to be engaged.
After Wang Yue read it, he wrote another poem on it, then mixed it into his own gift and gave it to Mrs. Ye.
…
During the banquet, Wang Yue was at the male guest's seat. As soon as he sat down, Ye Shi'an came over to greet him. After the two said a few words, Ye Shi'an went out to greet the guests.
Wang Yue found an inconspicuous seat and sat down. Before he could take a breath, he heard a strange voice saying, "Didn't someone say that they hate Ye Shi'an the most? Why are you looking so affectionate today?"
"
Wang Yue looked back and didn't expect it to be Gu Jiusi. He quickly raised his hand, and then said with a smile, "There are so many people I hate, but who is Ye Shi'an! Since he can't even be ranked.
, I just saw that he was a gentleman, so I reluctantly became a friend."
Hearing Wang Yue's words, the two people at the next table burst into laughter and turned around one after another. Only then did Wang Yue realize that the two people were actually Chen Xun and Yang Wenchang.
Chen Xun quickly bowed his hand to Wang Yue and said very politely, "Master Wang, thank you for your horse. I like it very much. I will definitely make you my friend."
Wang Yue pretended to be surprised and said angrily, "What? Without horses, there are no friends?"
Chen Xun didn't expect Wang Yue to joke with him, so he was stunned for a moment before he could react.
Yang Wenchang took advantage of this gap to salute Wang Yue, and then said with a smile, "Young Master Wang is so funny, but you are right, there is no disadvantage in being friends with that Ye Shi'an, but Brother Gu doesn't like it, we are brothers
I can only do it reluctantly and I don’t like it anymore.”
When Gu Jiusi heard this, he was very dissatisfied and said, "So you and I scold Ye Shi'an every day, are you just pretending?"
Of course Wang Yue could see that Yang Wenchang wanted to ease the relationship with Wang Yue, but he did not refuse the other party's kindness, and looked at Gu Jiusi with disdain, "You guys still have the time to chat here? Why don't you go to the female guests' seat quickly?
Which one do you like?"
Gu Jiusi looked at Wang Yue with wide eyes and asked in disbelief, "How did you know?"
Wang Yue curled his lips and said disdainfully, "You also know that I visited your home and your family is determined not to let you marry the princess, so you can only find someone to marry quickly! You
Are there any other opportunities for you to see all the beauties in Yangzhou at once?"
When Gu Jiusi heard that Wang Yue's guess was so accurate, he asked excitedly, "Brother Wang, since you have guessed it, you must have a way to solve it, right? Tell me quickly, what should I do?"
