Chapter 372 Did you make a mistake again?
Shen Yunyue looked at her earnestly, "If you like Duan Peiyan, then of course you have plans for him. If you're just doing this to avoid marrying a fool, then there's no need to do this."
"I know you think my eldest brother is good. I can naturally choose a good marriage."
Fu Xuanting pursed her lips, stood up and sat in her chair.
"Sister-in-law, I don't want to live like my mother. I hope to find an ordinary family and be a wife. Everyone will envy the high status of the concubines in the prince's mansion. If that day comes, I will also be a concubine in the palace."
She lowered her eyes. "But I like what you said. A lifetime together."
"Perhaps Duan Peiyan will marry a concubine in the future, but the nanny and the maidservant beside me will protect me and let me control the overall situation. Big brother is also the reason why I can stand up straight."
“If I were to marry into a wealthy and powerful family, the old ladies and wives there, even the sisters-in-law, would all be more cunning than a sieve.
Besides, there are only a few maids who are close to him and grew up with him."
People always say Fu Xuanting is stupid.
Shen Yunyue felt that she had a very thorough understanding of her marriage.
"Xuanting. Perhaps whoever you marry in the future will be marrying down."
Fu Xuanting chuckled softly, "As a former princess of the Great Zhou Kingdom, marrying anyone would be considered marrying down."
"It will be the same even if you become a princess in the future."
"I like to see Duan Peiyan's family working together. Maybe everyone says that Duan Peiyan will have a bright future if he studies hard alone, so naturally the family will rely on him."
"Sister-in-law. But now, his whole family is also fully committed to supporting him in his studies."
Fu Xuanting didn't know why, but she liked the simple appearance of this family.
"So what if people from small families are cunning? They have broad vision, and I can figure out why just by thinking about it." Fu Xuanting felt more confident now.
Shen Yunyue doesn’t know what kind of person Duan Peiyan is?
But she knew that she would not persuade Fu Xuanting to disagree at this juncture.
Although he was born in the countryside, he still managed to get the first place in the exam.
This shows that Duan Peiyan is quite capable, so she can just find a reliable person to find out something.
"Never mind. I don't object." Shen Yunyue picked up the book and the four treasures of the study on the table. "Give this to him."
"But, are you really sure?"
"Well, we have secretly decided to spend our lives together. He has always wanted to come to my house to propose, but I didn't dare to tell him the truth." Fu Xuanting was a little scared.
"What?" Shen Yunyue looked at her suspiciously.
Fu Xuanting concealed her identity and only said that her parents worked as long-term workers for the Shen family in Baijia Village.
She usually does odd jobs in the Shen family's kitchen.
"Your speech and behavior don't seem like a kitchen maid." Shen Yunyue sighed.
"I said that the young lady in this family is very nice and can teach us to read and write." Fu Xuanting acted as if she was the smartest person in the world, which made Shen Yunyue amazed.
"Sister-in-law, what do you think I should do?"
"Cold salad."
Shen Yunyue was speechless. "Don't talk for now. I'll send someone to find out."
"You can't interfere in our affairs."
Shen Yunyue glanced at her coldly and said, "Then I won't interfere. Let your brother veto it."
He grasped her weak spot very well.
Fu Xuanting had no choice but to pinch her nose and whispered, "Then you should send someone."
Shen Yunyue called An San and gave him some instructions.
Just as he was about to turn around, he saw Fu Xuanheng and the Fifth Prince coming back together.
The two men were wearing black cloaks, looking particularly cold and stern in the snow.
Shen Yunyue went to meet him.
"Fifth Uncle, Xuan Heng, have you found anything?" Shen Yunyue knew the answer as soon as she opened her mouth.
Sure enough, Fu Xuanheng just shook his head slightly.
"It's too late."
When they rushed over, the man in the cave had disappeared. He had also arrogantly left a line of words, asking them not to look for him.
With their skills, it would be useless to search.
It looked like the characters were written on the stone wall using internal force as finger strokes.
Fu Xuanheng ordered Gui Yi and the others to come back if they couldn't find him today, as he had to focus on expanding his sphere of influence.
"Let's have lunch then."
Shen Yunyue asked Donghe to prepare lunch.
The Fifth Prince and Fu Xuanheng entered the flower hall and found Fu Xuanting standing there.
She smiled sweetly at the Fifth Prince, "Fifth Uncle."
"Xuan Ting." The Fifth Prince naturally knew about his embarrassing stories and just nodded coldly.
Fu Xuanheng raised his eyebrows, "Did you make a mistake again?"
Fu Xuanting: ...Are you really my brother?
"No. Can't you just hope for me?"
Fu Xuanheng snorted coldly and walked to Shen Yunyue without even raising his eyelids.
"Let others take care of the housework. I've ordered people to patrol the greenhouse. Uncle Eight's injuries are relatively minor, so you don't need to worry." Fu Xuanheng sounded a little annoyed as he spoke.
On the way back from the North.
He encountered a strong opponent, but he never caught anyone.
"Yeah. I know."
We had lunch in the flower hall at noon.
There are four people: Shen Yunyue and Fu Xuanheng, Fu Xuanting and the Fifth Prince.
At lunch, they had an antique soup, beef, mutton, and fish slices on the table, along with various vegetables. Xia He also brought some meatballs, and Shen Yunyue took some modern hot pot ingredients from her space and mixed them on the table.
Anyway, it's all on the plate, and no one knows about it except Fu Xuanheng.
At the dinner table.
Fu Xuanheng asked Fu Xuanting again if there was anything wrong?
Shen Yunyue glanced sideways and told Fu Xuanheng the story in a few words.
The Fifth Prince still wore a silent and cold expression, eating meat and drinking wine with big mouthfuls. He had been in the military camp since he was 13 years old, and his appetite was as big as those people.
It's just the cultivation that I've had since childhood.
Although he has a big mouth, he still shows his cultivation.
Fu Xuanheng wanted to say something but in the end he said nothing.
Fu Xuanting waited for a long time, only to hear Fu Xuanheng and the Fifth Prince drinking.
She was a little frightened.
"Brother, are you going to scold me?"
Fu Xuanheng put down his wine glass coldly, "Will scolding you be of any use? You're secretly getting married without saying a word?"
He was indeed angry about this.
Shen Yunyue glared at him. "Stop talking. They've only met a few times, and always in the presence of others. They've adhered to etiquette."
Fu Xuanting's eyes were red.
When she was about to stand up, Shen Yunyue had already picked up some cuttlefish balls for her.
"After eating, go to the greenhouse and watch the servants pick strawberries. They have to be packed in baskets and sent to Yunheng Teahouse in Yonghe Town to sell. Even the ice cream shop where my aunt lives has to sell them. The passing boats are full of wealthy people."
Fu Xuanting wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
“Can I sell it at the dock?”
Shen Yunyue looked at her in surprise, only to see that Fu Xuanting acted as if nothing had happened.
"After the sale, after deducting the cost I give you, the remaining profit will be mine." She saw that Shen Yunyue's shop in the town was making money, and the grain on the farm was also making money.
The business partnership with Rong Ting is profitable.
Even in winter, we make money from the vegetables grown in the greenhouse.
After calculating the little money he had, he suddenly felt that it was not enough.
The Fifth Prince put down his chopsticks and said, "I'll make up for your coming-of-age ceremony later."
"Thank you, Uncle Wu."
Fu Xuanting smiled sweetly.
After dinner.
Fu Xuanheng and the Fifth Prince went to the Yunheng Palace in the town.
It is difficult to travel in snowy weather.
They rode over.
Shen Yunyue didn't want to go out at this time, looking at the thick layer of snow on the ground.
The sky became overcast again.
Shen Yunyue first went to the warehouse to check the charcoal. She had a lot of charcoal in her space, so she took out some diamond charcoal.
There is also ordinary black charcoal.
She stroked her chin and thought about the large amount of wood on Taiping Mountain.
There are all kinds of wood.
Should we also build a charcoal kiln to make charcoal?
I remember there was an abandoned charcoal kiln in the back mountain, which seemed to have been built by a foreigner who lived here before.
Only two years later, the stranger suddenly disappeared.
This is what she heard from Chen Xiaogou.
There weren't many silver charcoal and red radish charcoal in the warehouse. Shen Yunyue took some out.
He took a look at the food in the warehouse.
Just as she went out and locked the warehouse door, she heard the little fool shouting in the space.
Consciousness gave it a big slap, "What the hell are you yelling about?"
"Master, please let me out." The little fool likes the cold and likes snow the most.
"Okay. Don't give me anything in the yard."
"Promise." The little fool agreed happily, holding his two paws in front of his chest and bowing.
It was this attitude that made Shen Yunyue unable to bear to refuse it.
After letting it out, it ran out happily.
The little fool clumsily left the yard and ran towards the south. He rolled over and over in the snow, and the dark circles under his eyes disappeared from playing with the snow.
An San and the others all knew that Xiao Daigua was Shen Yunyue's pet.
He ran over, picked up a snowball and threw it at him.
The little fool saw that it was so fun.
It was fat, but agile. It started playing with An San and the others.
This game attracted a lot of people.
