After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 270 Let's Get Married

Zhu Min: "Before talking about the transaction, let me introduce you to my family's situation.

"Originally, my name was Jiang Min, and I followed my mother's nature. My mother was the only daughter of the Jiang family, and the Jiang family had a great business. In order to prevent the family property from being robbed by others, my mother hired a son-in-law, my father, Zhu Fugui.

"After giving birth to me, my mother raised me as the heir to the Jiang family. If nothing happens, I will take over the Jiang family from my mother.

"But when I was eight years old, she fell seriously ill and died a year later. Not long after, my father married his step-brother and said he was looking for someone to take care of me.

"My stepmother has a kind face and a sad heart. On the surface she dotes on me, but in fact she wants to flatter me, kill me and raise me to waste. If you go and ask around, you will know. People are saying that the eldest daughter of the Zhu family is a spoiled woman on the outside. Among them, there is a idiot who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, but cannot read a word.

"I knew it very well, but in order to grow up smoothly, I had to hide my acting skills and even changed my surname to Zhu.

"Before she died, my mother made an agreement with my father and several elders of the Jiang family. The deed was written in black and red on red paper. Before I was born, my father would take charge of the Jiang family's property on my behalf. After I grow up, my father will have to return the Jiang family's property in full.

"But people are greedy, and if they hold some things in their hands for a long time, they really think they are their own. My father never thought about returning the family property to me, but wanted to take it as his own and make it belong to the Zhu family. .

"In order to stabilize me, he ostensibly gave me a restaurant that was not doing well and was about to close down. He said it was for me to practice my skills, but in fact, he asked my stepmother to look after me, wanted to marry me off, and even planned to marry me off. Let me die in childbirth, so that he can occupy the Jiang family's property forever."

Erxi: "So, what is the deal you are talking about?"

Zhu Min took a deep breath and growled angrily: "You are such a poor person. My life experience is so miserable. I shed tears when I talk about it. It's fine if you don't come to comfort me. It's a deal if you keep talking."

Erxi's face remained calm and his tone was calm: "Five years ago, my father and mother passed away one after another. My sister and I lived in a dilapidated thatched house in the village that leaked wind. The family huddled together and almost froze to death."

Zhu Min: "..."

Suddenly I didn't feel sad anymore.

Compared with him, she was still well-fed after all.

She smiled dryly, "Let's not talk about those sad things. Come, drink tea. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake here is one of a kind. Try it."

I put a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the plate in front of him with my own hands.

Erxi ate it with dignity and tasted it in his mind subconsciously.

It's a little sweet and not soft enough. It's probably made in advance and left out for a long time, rather than freshly cooked.

"Can we talk now?"

Zhu Min: "The deal I'm talking about is-let's get married."

Seeing Er Xi, who had always been calm and unfazed, cast a surprised look, she explained: "Of course, I'm talking about a fake marriage. We only have the name of husband and wife, but no reality.

"As long as I marry myself first, my father and stepmother will not be able to interfere in my marriage."

Erxi: "Why me?"

Zhu Min: "You are good-looking, pleasing to the eye and delicious. Just looking at your face can make me eat two more bowls of rice."

Er Xi: "..."

Zhu Min: "Well, of course it's not just because of your good looks. In fact, it's more because of your cooking skills. The food you cook is the best I've ever eaten in my life. I want to lend you a hand to cook it." I started running the restaurant that my father left to me.

"I made an agreement with him in front of all the clan elders. As long as I can bring the restaurant back to life within three months, he will hand over the Jiang family's property to me.

"Didn't you leave from the Immortal Tower? You can come and fuck me just in time."

Erxi: "Why should I help you run the restaurant?"

Zhu Min: "After three months, no matter how the restaurant's business is, that restaurant will be yours, how about it?"
"That restaurant has a good location and a good location. There's nothing to say about the interior decoration. If it hadn't been unfortunate enough to be across from Fanlou, its business wouldn't have gotten worse and it was about to close down."

Erxi: "I can run a restaurant well myself, so why bother to fake a marriage with you?

"Besides, we ourselves know that it is a fake marriage, but in the eyes of outsiders it is a real marriage. I will definitely be involved in the fight between your family, which will bring me a lot of trouble."

Zhu Min: "We have known each other for so long, can we be considered friends? Since we are friends, can't you help me?"

Erxi: "Why should I help you? You also said that this is a transaction. Since it is a transaction, you have to calculate the pros and cons. Miss Zhu, I don't believe you don't understand this." Zhu Min lowered his head and said nothing. , the atmosphere became dull for a moment.

Erxi planned to say goodbye and leave.

Just then, he saw a few drops of water falling on the coffee table.

She was stunned for a moment and realized that those were not water drops, but Zhu Min's tears. She cried.

Now, it was hard for him to leave her here.

Erxi took out a handkerchief from his arms, which Cui Niang had embroidered for him. There was a braised fish embroidered on one corner of the handkerchief.

The color is bright, as if it were real, and just looking at it will whet your appetite.

He handed the veil over with some hesitation.

Zhu Min snorted with a heavy nasal voice, "You have a conscience."

He grabbed the handkerchief and wiped his tears, then blew his nose.

Er Xi: "..."

His veil is dirty.

Is this still available?
But if he didn't want it, he would be reluctant to do so. After all, Cui Niang had embroidered it for him with her own hands.

Zhu Min didn't know his tangled little thoughts, so after crying, her mood calmed down a lot.

"As long as you fake a marriage with me and help me take back the Jiang family's property, I will give you [-]% of the Jiang family's property after that, how about that?"

She had this plan originally, but she couldn't make up her mind because before that, the Lin family was just a commoner. If she got Lin Erxi involved, the Lin family might be in danger.

But things are different now. The Lin family has a divine craftsman and a dragon scale guard, who is obviously deeply favored by the emperor.

Her father would never dare to attack the Lin family.

If she gets married to Lin Erxi, it will be equivalent to having a backer.

Erxi: "Thirty percent."

Zhu Min: "You are so open-minded!" Does he know how much the Jiang family owns [-]% of its property?
Erxi: "You don't have to agree."

Zhu Min said angrily: "Twenty percent at most."

Erxi's lips curled up slightly: "Deal."

He naturally knows how much property the Jiang family, or more specifically the Zhu family, owns.

There are three wealthy families in Qingyuan County. The aristocratic family is the original Cheng family, and the Zhu family is one of the three wealthy families.

The wealthy family is the reserve force of the aristocratic family. Their background is worse than that of the aristocratic family, but in the eyes of ordinary people, they are still unshakable behemoths.

Since the Cheng family fell and fell out of the family hierarchy, the Cheng family's property has also shrunk significantly.

The Zhu family and the other two families took the opportunity to divide those industries, and their power grew stronger, becoming the first family in Qingyuan County.

Even if the industry under his name is only [-]%, it is still a huge number.

He believes that one day he can have those things on his own, but it will definitely take a lot of time, ranging from three to five years to seven or eight years.

But now, he can shorten this time greatly.

So, what reason did he have for not agreeing?
