Yipin Qiao Nongfei

Chapter 255
"A tigress, and there are two talented people vying for it. What's wrong with this world? A village girl, what virtue and ability does she have? Since when is being able to farm land considered an extraordinary skill?"

"It's not a skill to be able to farm, but a woman who can grow beets and sweet potatoes and make sugar is a big deal. Instead of letting her shine in the dust, it's better to come to our house and make good use of her value. In the future, as long as Prince Rong came to the throne, if she is not good at that time, what to do with her is just a matter of one sentence? Do you need to wipe your eyes and tears in front of me right now?"

"Don't I know this truth? But the child's reputation... This is the laughing stock of his life."

Mrs. Guo stopped crying, and heard the Duke snorting coldly: "That's what he asked for. This child has his own ideas since he was a child. It's not like you don't know. What did you say at that time? In the future There must be a lot to do, and now I have answered your words."

Speaking of this, his brows suddenly tightened, and he said in a deep voice: "Besides, as long as Xue Song has a great future in the future, who would dare to laugh at him for this matter? Not to mention that Su's daughter herself is strong, and in the future everyone in the world will dare to laugh at him. When you benefit from her and everyone praises you, isn’t this reputation also from the Duke’s Mansion? You, after all, are a woman, and your knowledge is short.”

After the words fell, I suddenly heard the old lady respectfully say outside the door: "Master, the ice man in the yamen has come, do you want to see him now? Or let him wait?"

"I'll go right now."

The Duke stood up, looked at Mrs. Guo sternly, and said in a low voice: "Think about it yourself, if you want to open it up, go back to Wangfei and Empress, and I still want you to open it."

"Humph!"

Mrs. Guo turned her face and snorted, but she didn't stop her. Seeing her husband striding out, the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became, and she thought to herself: Well, isn't she just a village girl?I don't believe that she has three heads and six arms, it's just that the farmer's family has no time to take care of the children, and she has some supernatural powers, which makes her so frivolous.If she really entered the Duke's Mansion, how could she be allowed to be presumptuous?I have to supervise her personally, grind her temper well, and always train her to look like a noble woman, so that I can't live up to my son.

Not to mention that the Duke's wife was secretly ruthless in the room, but Fang Xuesong, this time he returned to Beijing to propose marriage.

Shen Yuanxi had already expressed his intentions in front of himself. Although he pretended to be depressed at that time and used a tactic to delay the attack, he and Su Wanqiu traveled together in the capital afterward. If he had given his life, wouldn't he be plotting for nothing.

Because of these, he went back to Beijing and tried his best to persuade Prince Rong and his father.At this time, in the study, I heard from Shuyun that the Ice Man in the Yamen had been ordered by the Duke of the country to go to Daxing County to propose marriage.Fang Xuesong has a heart, it really is blossoming, just like eating iced watermelon in the dog days, it is extremely happy and refreshing.

"Let's go. Let's go back to Daxing County." Fang Xuesong hurriedly got up, and said to Shu Yun: "There is no need to clean up, let's ride over quickly."

"Ah?" Shu Yun was dumbfounded: "My lord, it will take an hour to go from the capital to Daxing County. Can you bear it? Besides, what are we going to do when we go back now? You won't be able to see the third girl again after the marriage proposal." .”

Fang Xuesong said with a smile: "That's true, but the third girl has always acted unexpectedly. If I don't keep an eye on this matter, I will always worry about it. I will rush back now, and if there is any trouble, I can make up for it in time. .”

Shu Yun: ...

"Okay, I really have nothing to say to the third girl. If that's the case, go and say goodbye to the master and wife, and the slaves will prepare the horses."

Fang Xuesong thought for a while, then said in a deep voice: "I'll just go to my father. If I see my mother, she will cry again. I don't know how long it will take to finish. I can't afford to delay."

Shu Yun was completely convinced: All right, you are the master and you have the final say.

******************
"Third sister, these foreign crops are really interesting. I thought that the sweet potato sprouted on the kang first, and then transplanted the sprouts into the ground. It's going to fall down..."

In the backyard, Su Yunxu put a sliced ​​potato into the soil, and couldn't help laughing at the fun of this new crop with Su Wanqiu, only to hear Su Wanqiu laughing: "That's not counting, when we have money in the future, I'll buy it." A piece of orchard, teach you grafting, that's the most interesting."

"Third sister said, apples and pears are grafted, and they are called apples and pears. Is it the one that has both flavors?"

"Not only apples and pears, there are many grafting patterns, but also watermelons, you can also choose good varieties to breed sweeter and sandier watermelons..."

Hearing the two of them joking, Su Wanxia couldn't help laughing and said: "Good guy, when you were at Hades' place, did you go to visit the plantation in the underworld? I never knew about these tricks, and watermelon. I did what you said." , the current watermelons are not sweet enough or tasty enough? The ones sent by Young Master Shen and Mr. Fang last year, I remember now, how delicious they are, but they are too expensive."

"It's okay." Su Wanqiu straightened up and stretched her waist: "If I were to cultivate, there would be bigger, sweeter and more delicious watermelons. When we grow more watermelons, the watermelons on the market won't be so expensive. By then, the common people will be able to afford it."

"Is Qiu tired? If you are so tired, go to rest under the shade of the tree over there. With these few seeds left, your father and I will have four boys for a while..."

As soon as Mrs. Liu said this, she suddenly heard a "Oh my god" from afar, which only startled her, and quickly stood up and said, "It's his third aunt's voice, what happened at home?"

While talking, he was about to go back to check, but before he could take a step, he saw a person jumping out of the back door of his house a hundred meters away, who else would it be if it wasn't Mrs. Wang.

"My god! Second brother, second sister-in-law, come back soon, it's a big happy event... Oh my god, I can't even think about it, second brother, second sister-in-law..."

"What a big happy event?" Su Wanqiu has been a little sensitive to the word "happy event" recently: "Don't tell me that General Liang won the emperor's award and came here to show off?"

"Impossible? When he came over yesterday, didn't Third Sister tell him clearly? I expect that anyone who wants to save face will not come to our house in the future, let alone a general."

"You don't understand. Sometimes a man's paranoia is terrible, and he can do anything. What I'm worried about now is that the reward is nothing more than that. If he goes to ask the emperor to marry him, the fourth sister will really want to marry him." It’s all over. Go, go back and have a look.”

Su Yunxu was taken aback, followed closely behind her, and said in a deep voice: "A marriage? He...he has such great ability? It's not easy for the emperor to bestow a marriage. Our family is just an ordinary family..."

"Shh! Keep your voice down, don't let Fourth Sister hear it, this is just my guess, not sure, I also think it's not so easy for the emperor to bestow a marriage."
