Xiaogu persuaded her earnestly, "Miss, marriage is not a trivial matter. It is related to the happiness of the rest of your life. Why do you need a son from an aristocratic family or a famous husband to be worthy of you? Otherwise, you will have to take care of the housework after getting married.
, how hard it is to make money to support the family."
"Isn't it now?"
Xiaogu was at a loss for words and thought for a while before saying: "That won't work. He already has a wife. If you remarry, you can only be a child. It's so wronged. You have to serve tea and water every day, and serve this and that. It's not going well."
If I take it out on you, there won't even be anyone to stand up for you."
Mu Qingci was dumbfounded. This was indeed a bit troublesome. After thinking about it, he looked at Li Luo. He was kicked out of the house by his wife. He guessed that the lady at home was probably a tigress. Sure enough, there was some trouble. Li Luo naturally didn't.
He knew what Mu Qingci was thinking, but at the moment he felt dumbfounded. There were so many wonders in the world, and it was not surprising that he was despised by others.
"Can't I marry him?"
"No!" Xiaogu flatly refused.
"Oh." Mu Qingci nodded, and when Xiao Gu was not paying attention, he reached out to take the wine bottle and took a sip. Just when Xiao Gu jumped up to snatch it back like a cat whose tail was stepped on, he was speechless.
Shockingly said without hesitation, "Then you marry him."
Xiaogu was stunned. Li Luo put down his bowl and chopsticks. Not a single person could finish the meal.
"Why...why!?" Xiaogu asked tremblingly. Li Luo bared his teeth and touched the tip of his nose. He should not have scared Xiaogu like this. Is it really that annoying!?
"If you marry him, if he bullies you in the future, I will help you stand up for him."
"No!" Xiaogu screamed, the voice was really loud, and it made the tiles on the house buzz. Mu Qingci covered her ears and said calmly, "Why not? Isn't it right if the door is not closed?"
Xiaogu looked at Li Luo with a look of disgust on his face, looked at Mu Qingci pitifully, and said with a flat mouth, "Miss, you don't want me anymore?"
"Yes, why don't I want you? You will get married in the future anyway."
"Then, then, then, can you change to someone else?"
"I think he is quite good. Didn't you just say that if you don't let me get married, then you are the only one?"
"No, miss, you are bullying others!"
"Why did I bully you?" Mu Qingci felt a little dizzy, "I will help you buy the dowry, and I will give you at least one thousand taels of silver."
"It's not about the money," Xiao Gu blushed, blushing shyly, and whispered, "I'm still young."
Mu Qingci snorted and rubbed the center of her brows, "Then I'll be the only one to get married."
Seeing that the two people were talking more and more outrageously, Li Luo coughed and said in a deep voice: "Miss Mu, Miss Xiaogu, why do you have to get married?"
Both of them were startled, right, what other people say is their business, why do they have to get married? They were really blinded by lard and messed up the rules. Mu Qingci thought about it for a while, and this is the truth.
What other people say is their business. No matter what they do with these rumors, they have troubled themselves for so long. It is better to drink and have fun.
Seeing that Mu Qingci no longer forced her to get married, Xiao Gu finally breathed a sigh of relief and quickly brought up the incense competition without mentioning the marriage. After talking for a while, she became a little unhappy and looked coldly at Li Luo.
, probably because he is angry that he dares to be so careless about the beautiful things falling from the sky. Could it be that he thinks that my dignified, beautiful, round, and small-boned girl is not worthy of him! This is simply unreasonable!
Li Luo just smiled when she heard her chattering and didn't argue, otherwise the meal would probably be unfinished.
Not long after the meal, someone came to visit and thanked Wang Cheng. People from all four families came. The Xie family came first. He was a young man from an aristocratic family who had gained the eyes of Xiaogu. He was elegant and elegant in the troubled times. In addition to offering gifts, he also talked to Mu Qingci.
After a conversation, they learned about the past and present, and were proficient in all kinds of poems, lyrics, and songs, and they were quite insightful. Mu Qing's poems were still her cold and calm look, but Xiaogu's face turned red, and she was very fascinated by what she was listening to. The person from the Wang family came from
He is a middle-aged man with a steady appearance and an extraordinary conversation. He is polite with a hint of caution that is not easy to get close to, which makes the jumping little bones quiet a lot. The person from the Cheng family is the chief steward of the mansion. This person's surname is Ye. Although his surname is not Cheng, he has a distinguished status.
, except for matters in the mansion, his say in the Cheng family's business outside is second only to the head of the Cheng family. The Cheng family sent Manager Ye to the small building to give Mu Qingci enough face. In the end, the person who came from the Xu family belonged to the head of the Xu family.
Third brother Xu Hecai, Hecai's name is tacky, and his words are also tacky. When he comes in, he doesn't talk about romance, poetry, or elegance. He only talks about gifts and the benefits promised to Xiaolou and Mu Qingci in the coming year.
, every sentence is filled with the smell of copper, which makes Xiaogu sneer.
In addition to the four shops in the Fragrance Market, some shops also sent people to come, but it seemed that they were mostly polite. In all likelihood, Yingxiu City had already decided that Mu Qingci would be the one to represent the four families at this year's Fragrance Competition.
One of the families will start a fight, and everyone is here just to show their affection for each other. When it comes to the competition, don't ask her to attack too harshly, or the loss will be too ugly.
After meeting the guests, Mu Qingci felt a little tired and went into the house to sleep. Xiaogu and Li Luo were the only ones left in the yard. Xiaogu was bored and asked Li Luo who he thought was the most sincere. Li Luo had no intention of commenting on the people in Yingxiu City.
But I was really idle, so I thought about it, these four family members all paid attention to me when they left, so he naturally wouldn't avoid it, and he didn't do anything shameful, so he simply let them see it openly.
, not many people in Huizhou recognized him, and he still looked so desolate and depressed.
When the young master of the Xie family left, he cupped his fists and saluted him. He had a smile on his face and seemed easy-going, but the arrogance in his bones was revealed in every detail of his actions. In his eyes, he did not put down this strange man who suddenly appeared in the small building.
In his heart, that is to say, he may not take Mu Qingci very seriously. The middle-aged man of the Wang family was more casual, nodding in greeting, with a little curiosity and scrutiny in his eyes, as if he was judging the extent of the rumors in the city.
Somewhat true, some false. However, Ye Da, the manager of the Cheng family, did not stay long. He said hello and left immediately without any strange expression on his face. This is also reasonable. A person with a foreign surname is in the Cheng family of the four major families in Hong Kong.
Having reached this point, he has already mastered the art of hiding his emotions and anger. No matter whether it is surprise, confusion, or even taboo, he will never let others see anything before he uses all his methods.
The third master of the Xu family was the most enthusiastic. He only had to hold Xiao Gu for a while and insisted on leaving a meeting gift for Xiao Gu and Li Luo before leaving. Naturally, it was heavier than the gift given to Mu Qingci, but it was not light either.
