Chapter 2041 Rumors
Xu You was very satisfied and said to Uncle Cao: "Uncle Cao, thank you for your hard work. Our brothers will treat you to a drink another day."
Jiang Wangang quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, Uncle Cao, let's have a drink together another day. Thank you for being a matchmaker between our two families."
What kind of matchmaker is he? He has just done a bad thing, what is there to thank him for?
But Uncle Cao still raised the car curtain and replied with a smile: "Then I will wait for the invitation from the Marquis and the General."
After saying that, he lowered the curtain and left in the carriage.
After the carriage ran a certain distance, Uncle Cao took out a handkerchief, spit into it, and cursed in his heart: Bastard!
Xu You, a villain, not only plotted against Jiang Wankang, but also plotted against him.
The Cao family has always put food first. Although in order to continue the family, they sometimes have to associate with some new rich people, but Xu You asked him to be a witness for the engagement between the two families. His name as a witness was clearly written on the engagement book. ...If Xu You does something treacherous in the future but fails, and Emperor Jingyuan is crazy, if he persists in this matter, his family will definitely be punished!
The more Uncle Cao thought about it, the angrier he became. Xu You was really a villain. He had already expressed his good will and still wanted to scheme against him like this. He was really not a wise man.
And Xu Liu, this is crazy.
Uncle Cao has begun to worry that if Xu You really succeeds, the two men may be more cruel and crazy than Emperor Jingyuan.
Phew~
Uncle Cao exhaled a breath of turbid breath, leaned against the wall of the carriage, pulled the blanket on the carriage, covered himself with it, closed his eyes and rested... The ancestral motto of the Cao family is to adapt to survival. No matter how it changes in the future, the Cao family only needs to adapt to the changes, and then change. If we seize the grain, it will not decline.
Although he thinks this way, Uncle Cao is a human being and sometimes he gets angry.
…
Jiang Wankang and Xu You had returned to the big tent. Xu You heard Jiang Wankang's question and replied: "I received news that he asked someone about the situation of our two daughters... He is a man who likes to accept meritorious officials' families. If a girl enters the harem, she is targeting the girls from our family and wants to cause harm."
"I have a daughter from a concubine. It's okay to send one to the palace to serve him. But you only have one daughter, how can you send her to the palace for him to ruin? He already has a granddaughter!"
"So I think it's better to formalize the marriage of the two children and get married as soon as possible. Then we can live in the same mansion and rescue them together when the time comes."
After hearing this, Jiang Wangang was filled with gratitude and choked with sobs: "Brother Xu, you are so considerate, you really make me feel ashamed... Sister Rong is lucky to be able to marry into the Xu family and be protected by the Xu family. This is I’ll leave the child in your care.”
After speaking, he bowed solemnly to Xu You.
Xu You smiled and said: "Old Jiang, we have been friends for a long time, and now we are in-laws. The fate of the two families is connected, and they should help each other. You don't have to say this."
He added: "I will send someone to send the engagement letter to the Long'an government office as soon as possible for it to be filed and sealed."
After the official seal was stamped, even if Shen Yanniang came to her senses and knew that this marriage was extremely harmful to the Jiang family and Jiang Zhengrong, it would be too late to regret it.
I really don’t want to, so I can only cancel the engagement.
But unless the two families break up and form a big feud, it is impossible for this marriage to be cancelled.
What's more, that bitch Jiang Zhengrong likes the boss and wants to marry the boss. How can she let Shen Yaniang break off the engagement?
Xu You looked at Jiang Wangang's face and said to him: "You are too tired from coming all the way. Go to the inner tent and take a nap first. When you wake up, we can drink and talk."
After speaking, Jiang Wankang didn't wait for him to refuse, but directly took his hand and went to the inner tent: "Don't say anything that is against the rules. We are in-laws. You should sleep in your own in-laws' big tent. You are afraid that others will say something trespassing." ?”
Xu You is really good at choosing words when he speaks. If he really thinks it's nothing, why bother adding the word "transgress"? Isn't this the intention to make Jiang Wankang grateful to him?
But Jiang Wankang trusted him very much and felt that Xu You was very kind to him. He was so moved that he grabbed Xu You's hand and said, "Then I'll sleep here first. When we get up, we can drink and chat."
"Okay." Xu You responded, and thoughtfully poured half a bowl of warm water for Jiang Wangang: "Drink some water before going to sleep. You can sleep more comfortably."
Jiang Wankang was even more moved, took the drink, got on the new fire kang, and soon fell asleep, snoring.
Xu You was very disgusted, but he was afraid that Jiang Wankang was pretending to sleep, so he didn't show contempt on his face until he came out of the inner account.
…
"Cough cough cough~" In Xu Liu's tent, Xu Liu was lying on the new fire bed, looking at Qin Sanlang and Zhong Yu, and said with a smile: "Brother Qin, Brother Zhong, thank you for coming to see me... cough cough Cough~"
Xu Liu's new guard captain, Mr. Duo, was always by his side. When he saw Xu Liu coughing, he handed him a bowl of light yellow cough tea: "Sixth Young Master, take three sips to make your breath smooth."
Xu Liu frowned when he heard it, then quickly let go, took the bowl, took three sips, no more, no less.
When Qin Sanlang saw this, he understood that this Cui Duo should have been arranged by Xu You to keep an eye on Xu Liu. He had great power and even Xu Liu had to be obedient.
It seems that after what happened to the Shen family uncle, Xu You still hasn't given up on Xu Liu. If he had given up, he wouldn't have sent such a capable person to take care of Xu Liu.
Xu Liu was able to receive such treatment because his status was indeed not simple. His mother-in-law Cui Xiniang was very problematic. She was probably a relative of the previous dynasty.
Not only that, maybe the forces from the previous dynasty have already been recruited and have been helping Xu You. Otherwise, if Xu You only relies on Xu You alone, even if he can fight again, he will not be able to take away the power of commanding the army from the hands of Duke Xing. All the way to where I am today.
Qin Sanlang was a son of a noble family, and he had been influenced by it since he was a child. He knew very well that it was difficult for ordinary children to get ahead, and Xu You would not have been able to reach this point without the help of big forces.
It's just that the power that helps Xu You is too mysterious, and Brother Luo's secret investigation has made no progress so far.
"Why haven't you recovered from your illness?" Zhong Yu looked at Xu Liu and asked, but he felt quite happy. It's good to be sick. You can't pester them all the time.
After Xu Liu drank the cough tea, he felt much more comfortable. He said: "I was almost fine, but I accidentally caught a cold some time ago and started coughing again. But it's okay. The doctor said, I'll take care of myself carefully for another half a month." , it will be cured...it's not tuberculosis, two brothers, don't listen to the rumors outside."
Zhong Yu: "..."
You also specifically added this sentence. If you are so afraid of the rumors that you have tuberculosis, then you should be calmer. You are making trouble every day, and you deserve to be in such trouble.
Xu Liu really liked Qin Sanlang. Seeing that Qin Sanlang had not spoken, tears welled up in his eyes. He looked at him and asked aggrievedly: "Brother Qin is disappointed in me?"
Qin Sanlang nodded: "I am indeed a little disappointed."
What did you say? !
Xu Liu was very angry, but Mr. Duo held his shoulders and stopped talking: "Qin Qianhu is right. The Sixth Young Master was indeed not very sensible some time ago. Anyone who treats the Sixth Young Master well will be disappointed."
Xu Liu was restrained by Mr. Duo, so he didn't get angry. He shed tears and said, "I'm sorry~"
Qin Sanlang was a little disgusted, but he still had to reply if he should: "Knowing your mistakes can make a lot of improvements. Sixth Young Master, take good care of your illness. After you recover, you can live in harmony with everyone and make up for your past mistakes. In this way, your reputation will gradually improve." .”
Xu Liu was very unhappy when he heard this. He wanted to say a few words to rebut, but Duo Ye beat him to it.
Master Duo smiled and nodded: "Qin Qianhu is right, that's what the Sixth Young Master thinks."
Fart, I just want to assassinate those who laugh at me. Who wants to live in harmony with them? They deserve it too!
But Xu Liu was suppressed by Mr. Duo and had no chance to get angry. He didn't even have the chance to act coquettishly to Qin Sanlang... Cui Duo said that he is twelve years old this year and is considered a mature man. It's too much for a man to act coquettishly. Let him get rid of this bad habit to avoid it being counterproductive.
