After the marriage, the cousin was spoiled by the whole family of the Marquis's Mansion

Chapter 173: Picking quarrels and causing trouble
In the carriage, Rong Peilan turned her head away and didn't look at the man with a flattering look on his face.

"You don't have to say anything. I won't agree to let Kuan'er take the Autumn Examination."

Neither of them mentioned the pain of the past.

They are just victims of imperial power.

Ji Yunzhang retired at the peak of his career and submitted his resignation to everyone's surprise.

The happiest people were Prime Minister Chen's party. He had outlasted all his opponents, and the only one left in the cabinet was Zhuang Kexing, who had one leg in the coffin.

Now that the war is over and military power is centralized, newcomers like Jin Shaoyi and Qin Anjiang are nothing more than a flash in the pan.

The country still needs to rely on civil officials, and Your Majesty will still be close to civil officials in the future.

In the eyes of Chen Xiang and his party, Ji Yunzhang's actions were nothing more than a matter of knowing the times.

The sensible Prince Ji was still coaxing his pregnant wife.

"Don't you know what kind of person Kuan'er is? He has no interest in the Four Books and Five Classics since he was a child, but he has read a lot of hydrological miscellaneous notes."

"All scholars in the world are the same. After reading the books of sages for so many years, they all want to compete with each other."

Rong Peilan lowered her eyes. Now that she had left such a dirty place, she didn't want to go back.

"Tanghulu~~"

Ji Yunzhang's attention was immediately attracted.

He had known that his daughter liked candied haws from the letters his mother sent home.

Her mother didn't let her eat too much, but every time she saw her daughter's eager eyes, she couldn't help but soften her heart.

Rong Peilan stopped Ji Yunzhang who wanted to get off the car and said, "If you keep eating, you will harm your child. How can a little girl get married with a mouthful of rotten teeth in the future?"

"Why marry? I'll support you!"

Ji Yunzhang's thoughts were distracted. He couldn't help but jump up and down when he thought about the girl he had raised with great difficulty being taken away by someone else.

Rong Peilan looked at his exaggerated movements and instantly understood what he wanted to do.

She loosened her grip, flicked his sleeve, and turned her head away, ignoring him.

Ji Yunzhang changed his seat and sat opposite her.

"Kuan'er is almost grown up. In a few years, he may choose to travel, become a teacher, or learn a craft."

"Whatever he wants to do, it's what he wants to do, not what we force on him."

"Although I have only known Kuan'er for less than two years, he is a very smart kid. Even if we don't tell him, he knows our decision."

"You should have believed Kuan'er instead of keeping him by your side all the time."

Rong Peilan still didn't look back, just stared out the window.

Jinpeng Mansion is not very big and has far fewer people than Yanjing.

Street hawking was also freer, not divided into many markets like in Yanjing.

Although she did not respond, Ji Yunzhang knew that he had convinced her.

The two returned home from the granary, and the sharp-eyed Xiao Sui'an was the first to discover them.

He struggled to get off Haitang's body.

With eyes shining, he rushed to his father on his short legs, his mouth almost drooling.

"Gourd, gourd!"

Ji Yunzhang took out his hands which were behind his back.

With nothing in his hands, he spread his hands and kicked the ball directly to the child's mother, "Mom doesn't allow Dad to buy candied haws."

The little girl immediately pouted her lips, turned sideways, and glanced at her father and mother from time to time with her little eyes.

"Sui Sui is angry."

Rong Peilan laughed out of anger. She was asked to sing the bad guy role and let him be the good guy.

The show has started, so we have to sing.

"You ate two candied haws yesterday, so you can't eat them today."

Little Sui'an turned around to look at his mother's face, and then took small steps to his father's side. "Dad, gourd, Sui Sui wants a gourd~"

Ji Yunzhang felt that he was controlled by his wife after he got married, and by his daughter after he had a child.

As soon as the little girl started to act coquettishly, he couldn't help but surrender.

Like a magic trick, he took out an oil-paper bag from his arms.

Xiao Sui'an had a very sensitive nose and immediately cheered, "Hulu~"

Rong Peilan's eyebrows almost stood up, "When did you buy it?!"

Ji Yunzhang smiled mysteriously, "Guess."

Open the oil paper package and there are a few pastries inside.

Xiao Sui'an was immediately dissatisfied, pouting and muttering "Bad daddy."

Ji Yunzhang squatted in front of his daughter, holding the pink cake in his hand. "Sui'er, smell it. It tastes like candied haws."

As he said this, he brought the pastry close to Sui'an's little nose.

Sui An wrinkled his little nose and took a small bite.

After tasting it, her little face immediately turned from gloomy to bright.

She immediately hugged her father's face and smacked him, then took the pastries and ran to her brother who was still asleep.

Looking at her daughter's excited back, Rong Peilan rolled her eyes at him unhappily.

"You are the only one who knows how to please others. As a mother, I am in a difficult position."

Ji Yunzhang immediately complained, "These two little guys, I bought so many good things to please them, but they drove me out at night. You three occupied the main room, and I have been sleeping in the compartment for several nights."

Before the two of them finished their conversation, Jixing came in hurriedly and saw them flirting with each other.

He quickly covered his eyes and took a few steps back, not paying attention to the steps behind him.

He fell out with one somersault.

"oops!!"

Then there was a loud bang.

They both turned around and saw Jixing standing up with a frown on his face.

"Master, Madam, I am still young and unmarried. Aren't you afraid that I might get stye?"

At Ji Yunzhang's request, Ji Xing has changed his address to "Master".

In his words, now that he is no longer in Yanjing, it is better for him to keep a low profile as a big man living abroad.

Ji Yunzhang said angrily, "Who made you so useless? You see her every day, every day, but you haven't married Chen Chun back."

Ji Xing closed his mouth, but after a moment he couldn't help muttering, "Who said that? I can take more beatings than before! Chen Chun can knock down those scoundrels with two punches, and I can still take four punches."

Seeing that the two had completely strayed off the track, Rong Peilan stopped them and said, "Alright, let's talk about this later. What are you in such a hurry for?"

Ji Xing slapped his forehead and said, "That group of people is here again."

Rong Peilan, "That group of people? Again?"

Ji Xing, "Jin Peng has also had a grain merchant for many years. Since we supply Yanjing, this grain merchant mainly does business in the south."

“Originally we had no conflict.”

"After our granary was built, the other party asked around, but Manager Zhou kept his mouth shut and didn't reveal anything."

"Since last year, many local grain shops in Jinpeng have started to buy our grain."

"I heard from the shopkeeper that the other party was dishonest and sold old grain, so they turned to buy our grain."

"At the beginning of this year, the other party hired someone to follow Manager Zhou and found him at your house."

"That group of people came with such force that they frightened the young man and the young lady so much that they cried for several nights."

"Chen Chun beat them out, and the matter was brought to court. In the end, the shopkeepers came forward to testify that they were selling old rice and provoking trouble. The matter was settled. I didn't expect it to happen again today."
