Chapter 177

"But, isn't your family doing very well! There is no power that makes the emperor worry, why doesn't the Shui family please the emperor?" Hao Xue still didn't understand.

Shui Wuyu smiled and rubbed Hao Xue's head, "The family that won the emperor's favor is the Huo family who has been competing with the Shui family.

The Huo family moved to the capital in the early years, and they have lived there since then. It can be said that they are natives of the capital.If the Shui family is the richest man, the Huo family is the second. How could the Huo family be reconciled if they have been in second place for many years?Naturally, I have always wanted to replace the name of the Shui Family..."

"What's the way to please the emperor?" After listening for a long time, Hao Xue found that Shuiwuyu hadn't mentioned the point, and Hao Xue was anxious.

Shui Wuyu knew Hao Xue's impatience, so he teased her more slowly: "Don't worry, I'm so thirsty when I'm talking...Okay, just say..."

Hao Xue pinched Shui Wuyu's mouth directly, with a fierce look in her eyes, Shui Wuyu hurriedly begged for mercy.

"This time, Yanqi and Quesheng joined forces to seize Wufeng's land. The management issues are what the ministers are most concerned about. The emperor will probably grant the new territory to Nan Wang as a feudal land. No one has any objections to this.

The land obtained from Wufeng will not be stabilized within a few years. Now there are people who are constantly making troubles, and the local people are also disobedient.

The situation is unstable, the land has been affected by the war, and there is no previous prosperity..."

Only then did Hao Xue understand: "Oh~ Then the Huo family wants to go to the new land to do business and drive the economy of Chibane Territory?"

"good."

No wonder the emperor is tempted, this is something that is beneficial to the country, the emperor will naturally rely heavily on it.

"Then, your eldest brother also wants to fight for it?" In Hao Xue's view, it is completely unnecessary. The Shui family is so rich, why do you care about that thankless reputation?

"There will always be something wrong with being the only one family for a long time. Feng Shui will only soothe people's hearts. It is certain that the name of the imperial merchant will change hands. Although the elder brother is unwilling, he only cares about the overall situation.

The purpose of the emperor is nothing more than to want the new land to settle down, return to peace and prosperity as soon as possible.That land was originally a piece of jade, but now it has become incomplete and flawed due to the war. As long as it takes time to clean it, it can still be restored.

The new territory was originally a land of black and phoenix, the customs and products are not the same, gold is everywhere waiting to be mined, and now everyone wants to get the opportunity to be a business leader in the new territory, but the emperor considers the unstable chaos of the locals, it is impossible Let's all flow in together..."

"You promised to let the Shui family go to Akabane's territory to become the business boss?" Hao Xue finally understood.

Shui Wuyu smiled and said: "That's right. Yanqi's domestic Shui family has been at the forefront for many years, and only by looking for new positions and digging new things can new development come. If they can lead the local prosperity, the Shui family is not just a mere businessman. It is very likely that you will be awarded a knight title."

"Conferred title, what could it be?" Hao Xue also became interested when she heard it.

"Your Majesty or something, at most it has a name, but it's still impressive enough." Shui Wuyu doesn't care about titles, and he left the Shui family later, and that has nothing to do with him.

If one gets a title, the prestige is not what the Shui family cares about, but if there is an official position, it will be beneficial to the Shui family for generations, and the Shui family is not a commoner, it means they have status and are superior to others.

"Isn't it a pity for the Huo family?" Hao Xue felt that the Huo family was destined to fail to catch up with the Shui family, and it was pitiful.

"The proposal is his. Whether to agree or not is another matter. As long as you give him the imperial business, it will satisfy him." Shui Wuyu said indifferently.

Shui Wuyu said again: "Xue'er, this matter is still due to you. I invited this opportunity because of your relationship."

"Me?" Hao Xue thought for a second, knowing that Shui Wuyu refers to her relationship with Xiaodaozi.

"That's right. I've already asked Qi Qifu for a good word in front of the emperor, and there will be a holy message in the near future. The elder brother has already taken charge of the family, and after discussing with my father, I agreed to let me go and be independent. It was a matter of time. , if the Shui people are more prosperous, it will be easier for me to stand on my own."

Master Shui wanted to think about it in a few years after Shui Wuyu got married, but Shui Wuyu couldn't wait that long.The past few years are also the best time for Shuiwuyu to show his strengths. Doesn't staying in Shuijia restrict his actions, and all the fruits of labor are filled with Shuijia. He is just a migrant worker, and Shuiwuyu can't wait.

"Will everyone think you are ruthless?" This society values ​​filial piety, and Hao Xue is worried that people will criticize her practice of having no rain.

It doesn't matter if there is no rain in the water: "It will be a matter of time, and besides, I am not cutting off ties with the Shui family. When it is time to move, I still move."

Since there is no water and no rain, Hao Xue has nothing to worry about.

Early the next morning, Hao Xue went to see Mrs. Shui to say hello, she is now determined to be the daughter-in-law of the Shui family, and she should go to her mother-in-law every day to establish rules.

Hao Xue met Ruan Weiyu and Lian Sheng outside Mrs. Shui's courtyard.

Shui Wuyan seems to be bound together with Ruan Weiyu, in short, if Ruan Weiyu is there, there is Shui Wuyan, and as soon as Shui Wuyan sees Hao Xue, he starts the battle mode of protecting the lord. Brother Yu is really confused.

Hao Xue only pretends that Shui Wuyan does not exist, and does not greet the duo, but only talks to Lian Sheng.To Ruan Weiyu, Hao Xue is really speechless, she has nothing to say to a person who wants to frame her, and she doesn't want to talk to him.

Entering the wife's yard, each prospective daughter-in-law and daughter greets the wife. In fact, these are not very strict, as long as you arrive early to say hello, sit with Mrs. Shui for a while, and wait until Mrs. Shui tells you to leave.Hao Xue only stayed for a few more days, and would not see her often when she left.

Mrs. Shui's attitude towards Hao Xue was not as indifferent as before, but she was not enthusiastic. She only asked a few questions occasionally throughout the whole process, so she didn't make things difficult for her.

However, Shui Wuyan mentioned something intentionally or unintentionally to hit Hao Xue's weakness, but Hao Xue responded calmly, and she should live in harmony in front of her elders.

Compared to Shui Wuyan's blatant provocation, Ruan Weiyu was much quieter, but the resentment in Hao Xue's eyes became more and more serious.Ruan Weiyu has recognized the facts and accepted the facts, but she also dislikes Hao Xue because Ruan Weiyu bumped into the ice wall firmly at Shuiwuyu.

After the family meeting yesterday, at night, Ruan Weiyu was lurking in the dark, seeing Shui Wuyu coming out of Hao Xue's room, she immediately went to meet Shui Wuyu, pretending to bump into Shui Wuyu in the dark.

"Hey~ It hurts!" Ruan Weiyu fell to the ground, calling out tenderly.

Shui Wuyu just stood still, under the light of the moonlight and the high-hanging lanterns in the mansion, his tall and straight figure and handsome appearance showed a different kind of charm.

Ruan Weiyu raised her head and bumped into Shui Wuyu's cold and deep eyes, looking at him with tenderness, with a look of being so weak that she needs help to get up.

Ruan Weiyu wanted to make a final gamble, she thought there was still a chance.

"It hurts~" Seeing that Shui Wuyu didn't speak, Ruan Weiyu called out again to attract his attention.

Shui Wuyu looked coldly at Ruan Weiyu's old-fashioned way of touching porcelain, and for a moment, said coldly: "Miss Ruan, do you want to get up and go back to the guest room obediently, and marry Wuyun obediently when the time comes, or should I call Wuyun to come now?" help you?"

Ruan Weiyu's heart trembled and was surprised by Shui Wuyu's cold words, she didn't expect Shui Wuyu to be so shameless, and she directly demolished her, she suddenly felt ashamed.It's the same with Hao Xue, she said she was framed in front of others, but what they said was true, Ruan Weiyu couldn't accept this situation.

Ruan Weiyu didn't understand why other than Master Shui, Shui Wuyan, and Mrs. Shui who were polite to her and gave her face, other people always ignored her?
Master Shui and the others lived in the capital all year round, and the others were just a second young master from a concubine, a village widow, and a cousin who lived under the fence all the year round.Haven't they seen the world?Don't know the way to come and go?Why do you have no worries about her, a lady from the official family?

Ruan Weiyu didn't believe that they dared to ignore her so unscrupulously. If she returned to the Ruan family, the Shui family would not be able to explain to the Ruan family.If she makes a big fuss, Shui Wuyu will be embarrassing if she gets involved in a scandal, then Hao Xue will give up on him, and she will be embarrassed too!
Ruan Weiyu was so ashamed and angry at that time, his head became hot, he got up without thinking about anything, and rushed towards Shui Wuyu, wanting to hug him and then call out "indecent" loudly, to make it difficult for everyone.

How could Shui Wuyu follow Ruan Weiyu's words, seeing her jumping up and opening her mouth, he immediately sealed her throat to prevent her from making a sound, and then without seeing Shui Wuyu making a move, Ruan Weiyu fell to the ground again.This time Ruan Weiyu really fell to the ground, but she was not injured.

"Do you think you can go back after you leave the Ruan family? Do you think you can threaten the Shui family by leaving the door of the Shui family? Do you think that you can catch me and use my reputation to force me to submit?

If you want to live a good life and enjoy the glory and wealth, then go back obediently and wait to be the third wife of the Shui family, and then make trouble for me. I will send you back to the Ruan family tonight, and then we will see who you marry as a concubine The first concubine.Wuyun doesn't necessarily mean that you don't want to marry, there are many other candidates for the third wife, no one in the Shui family must marry you! "

Shui Wuyu really didn't want to talk to Ruan Weiyu, but she rushed forward by herself, complaining that others were ruthless, he had no feelings for her at all.

After Shui Wuyu finished speaking, he stopped looking at Ruan Weiyu and left to go back to his room.Shui Wuyu secretly ordered the chief to watch Ruan Weiyu, don't let her cause any trouble, such as suicide!Annoyed, he went to trouble Hao Xue!Or come up with some other annoying moths.

Ruan Weiyu sat alone on the cold ground for a while, and blew in the cold wind in the dark night for a while, her mind finally calmed down

Of course she doesn't want to go back to Ruan's house and suffer from blank stares and ridicule. She is just dissatisfied with everyone's indifference towards her. She just wants to be valued and get a place in the Shui family. She doesn't want to be looked down upon by others. She wants to do more for her future Get some good guarantees for your life.

But she didn't want to, nothing was as good as Ruan Weiyu's wishes, everything she tried to do was counterproductive, which made her even more uneasy in an unfamiliar environment.
