Chapter 535: Two deviants

Chapter 535 Two deviants

Given Xie Ying's age, it is too late for her to discuss marriage. The Xie family loves her so much that she has not discussed marriage until now.

"That's right! My grandpa told my parents that I can choose whoever I like, whether it's a nobleman or a trafficker. As long as I like them, they don't have any objections. All I need is that they have to treat me like my father and my mother. In that case, love me, respect me, and don’t take concubines.”

No matter how much Mrs. Xie loves her daughter, she cannot always keep her by her side.

 “That’s pretty good, pick one you like.” Wei Ruodao.

"I want to choose a short-lived man like you. It's best if I marry him and he dies immediately, and then I can live alone in a dignified manner." Xie Ying said.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no."

"What's wrong? I think your prince is a very nice person. If you are weak, just be weak. We don't expect him to do any physical work for us."

 Wei Ruozhen is going to be defeated by Xie Ying.

 She is a soul from modern times who behaves very normally. How come Yingying, a native of ancient times, has such deviant thoughts?

Wei Ruodao: "Yingying, I feel like I'm going to be chopped down by one of your family members!"

“No, my family has a good impression of you. Even my grandfather praises you as a hero among women.”

 “Which family of children am I considered a hero?”

"You presented that divine cannon! I've heard that there have been many great victories along the coast recently, and your father has made great military exploits again," Xie Ying said.

Speaking of things along the coast, Wei Ruo couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Thanks to Mr. Yuan and Mrs. Yuan, the supply of food and grass for the anti-Japanese army was guaranteed. Otherwise, with the situation this year, people would have dispersed before the war started. "

Famine has occurred in many places this year, but Jiangsu and Zhejiang, where the harvests have been poor in the past two years, suddenly emerged. Instead of famine, they ushered in a wave of bumper harvests.

 Not only did the people have enough food for themselves, but they also paid a lot of taxes and rents.

The treasuries of various prefectures in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were full, and the anti-Japanese army's rations were also supplied.

 Only in this way can the border officers and soldiers fight without any worries.

Xie Ying muttered: "Isn't this because of your contribution? Master Yuan's memorial to the court specifically mentioned your contribution. My grandfather told me about this when he came back."

"What else did your grandfather say to you? About disaster relief." Wei Ruo asked Xie Ying.

"My grandfather said that disaster relief is very troublesome because there are many places affected by the disaster, but the national treasury is not sufficient. If we want to provide disaster relief, it is not enough to rely on the donations from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Guangdong. Grandpa said that the emperor wants to borrow money from the Tan family, a wealthy family in the northwest. Food." Xie Ying said.

 “The Tan family, a powerful family in the northwest?”

"You have been in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas before, so you have never heard of the Tan family, right? It is a local big family with a history of hundreds of years. It is too big to fail. This family has been prosperous before the great cause was established. It is said that the great cause founded the country, and this family I have provided money, efforts and people.”

"Their family is not only a farming family, but also has specialized people in business. The family has also produced many Confucian masters and high-ranking officials, and now there are also people who are officials in the government. It can be said that this large family is occupied by scholars, farmers, industry and merchants. It is said that the Tan family The compound is like a city. You can walk around the outside of their home in one day. It is also said that one-third of the cultivated land in the northwest belongs to their family. In short, they are a very powerful family, and even the emperor has to give it to them. It’s all about face.”

Hearing this, Wei Ruo felt a little envious.

Although Wei Ruo now owns a lot of land and property and runs a lot of shops, the scale is still far behind that of such a wealthy family. "So, the Tan family is the goal I strive for." Wei Ruodao.

"That's a bit difficult. If you don't have children, if you want to grow your family like that, you have to at least have a few more children to spread the branches and flourish the population, right? Even if you have one child, let you have more children. Give birth to a few." Xie Ying couldn't help but pour cold water on Wei Ruo.

"It's okay, I can adopt more orphans in the future." Wei Ruo was very open-minded.

"That seems to be feasible. It is much faster than giving birth on my own. These days, there are many people who sell children, and there are many who are born without their parents. It is really pitiful." Xie Ying said.

As she spoke, Xie Ying raised her head, looked at the long queue in front of the soup kitchen, and said in a rare and serious tone:

"I really don't know why those people in the capital are still thinking about fighting for the position of prince. The country is like this. Can't they use their thoughts and efforts to fight for the prince to help the people? Only the people can have a country, and the people can't live. Now, what’s the use of sitting in that position?”

Wei Ruo followed Xie Ying's gaze and murmured, "You are right. The people may not care about which prince becomes the emperor, but how they survive."

Xie Jue was a little far away from the two of them, and could only occasionally hear fragments of their conversation, and he couldn't help but be surprised frequently.

His sister and Princess Rui are really unconventional, and every idea is so unexpected.

But this is what makes them special. His sister and Princess Rui are both unique people.

Xie Jue smiled fondly, then turned to look at another tall man with a calm demeanor beside him.

This is the guard who came with Princess Rui. He looks unremarkable, but his gestures and gestures reveal nobility, unlike ordinary guards.

Seeing him sitting at the stove, stuffing firewood into it, I felt an indescribable sense of disobedience.

 After a busy morning, other people from the palace came to change shifts, and Wei Ruo, Xie Ying, Xiumei, Wei Jinyi and Xie Jue went to eat elsewhere together.

Everyone returned to the city, entered the Xiaoyue Tea House next to the city wall, and asked for a private room.

The teahouse has been deserted these days, and they are the only ones who come here to eat every day.

Wei Jin also simply booked the teahouse, not allowing anyone else to enter, so that Wei Ruo could have a meal here.

When Wei Ruo sits down, Wei Jin will naturally help her move her seat. After Wei Ruo sits down, Wei Jin will pour tea for her.

When Wei wanted to wipe his sweat, Wei Jin also handed over his handkerchief.

Xie Jue on the side saw this scene in his eyes and couldn't help but frown slightly.

This guard's behavior is a bit too intimate with Princess Rui...

Xie Jue had noticed Wei Jinyi's actions two days ago. It was a little strange for a bodyguard to do these things. Generally, maids would do such personal service.

And Princess Rui’s personal maid Xiumei is also present now.

Xie Jue was about to speak but stopped. After thinking over and over again, he swallowed what he wanted to say.
