Chapter 136: First Discussion on Su Qiwen's Marriage
In the future, this mud can be used to build city walls and dams, strengthen border defenses, and make Xifeng Kingdom impregnable, immune to foreign invasions and free from internal disasters. Xifeng Kingdom will be peaceful and prosperous, and even if he dies without seeing it, he will have no regrets.
Yun Chuchu nodded firmly and said, "Uncle Luo, just wait and see. This cement will definitely not let you down."
This would definitely make the former Minister of Works ecstatic.
She also understood Luo Dinghai's temper. He was an engineer and was particularly obsessed with and fond of engineering technology.
In the end times, I am an engineer.
Murong Li poured cement into the entire foundation, not just the pillars. He wanted to use this house as an experiment to see how solid the poured foundation was.
If the house can withstand his internal force and remain standing, even an earth dragon cannot overturn it.
Luo Dinghai followed Murong Li throughout the whole process and recorded every detail.
Murong Li praised Luo Dinghai's behavior highly. If everyone in the court worked as hard as he did, there wouldn't be the current corruption.
It feels like the current imperial court is like a small boat drifting in the ocean, which will be swept away by the waves from time to time.
In fact, the source of the problem lies with the person sitting on the dragon throne. If he had been close to virtuous ministers and kept away from villains, and governed the Xifeng Kingdom well, this would not have happened.
If that person had focused on state affairs instead of the dragon throne under his butt, so many loyal ministers would not have been exiled here, wasting their time and talents.
Murong Li sighed heavily. If he wanted to change everything, he couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
At this time, many villagers came to watch. They had never seen a foundation laid in this way. Some were amazed, while others complained, saying that this was a pure waste of time and that they had nothing better to do.
People who were exiled here from the capital city don't have very good brains and always think of strange things.
There are also people who use mud to build the foundation. I have never heard of or seen such a thing. The mud is like tofu, which will break if you poke it with your finger.
This time, even Village Chief Niu had doubts in his heart, thinking that they were just fooling around, so he shook his head and left.
I finally earned some money, but it was all ruined like this.
It was almost evening, and the villagers had watched half of the show but had not seen the end. They felt very regretful. They all wanted to see Su Yue and the others make a fool of themselves, but now they couldn't, so most of them left in disappointment.
The villagers who helped carry the mud also went to collect food and returned.
Only Luo Dinghai, Wu Shichang, Lord Sun and Sun Xingyi followed Murong back to the yard. When they came back, the food at home was already prepared.
It turned out that it was Luo Meiting who came to help, or it was Su Qiwen who invited the mother and daughter.
Seeing how busy Su Yue had been these days, Su Qi's doting sister-loving nature immediately came into play. He thought of Luo Meiting and ran to her house to invite her to help with cooking.
Luo Meiting's mother, Xiao, had always had a crush on Su Qiwen, so she agreed without thinking.
Seeing that everyone had finished work and returned, Xiao quickly set the table.
Luo Dinghai was very happy to see his wife and daughter coming to help.
There were two large tables, with men and women sitting at different tables, one table for men and one table for women.
There were very few people at the women's table, only Su Yue and her daughter Luo Meiting were eating there.
Su Yue had been busy all day and was already hungry. She was not polite at all and started eating with relish while picking up the bowl.
Mrs. Xiao looked at her with a smile: "Miss Su, are your mother and the others in Northwest City? Will they come to Yunwu Village?"
Su Yue stopped eating and immediately thought of what Xiao meant by asking. She said, "It should have been when the house was built. My grandparents should have arrived by then."
She glanced at Luo Meiting again and said, "They are mainly here to discuss matters concerning Sister Meiting and my eldest brother."
As early as two days ago, Su Qiwen sent a letter to Northwest City to tell the old marquis about his personal affairs.
After all, Su Qiwen is the eldest son and grandson of the Su family, and his marriage must be decided by the old marquis, and he cannot make his own decisions.
Xiao Shiwen
Yan nodded in satisfaction: "That's great. If the two children's affairs can be settled sooner, we as parents can rest assured sooner. Our Meiting is not young anymore."
This was the first time this was brought up on the table. When Su Yue said this, Xiao felt relieved.
As a woman, she should have been more reserved, but her daughter's marriage was a headache for her. She only found someone she liked at such an age, so how could she not be anxious?
My daughter doesn't have anyone she likes in the village. She has been putting it off until she is almost an old maid and no one wants her anymore.
Unexpectedly, a few young people suddenly came and found the right one.
In fact, the two old people, including their son and daughter-in-law, prefer Murong Li. Murong Li is superior to Su Qiwen not only in appearance but also in status, but he already has a fiancée, so they dare not think about it.
And their daughter also likes Su Qiwen, so what else do they have to say.
Luo Meiting smiled shyly when she heard this, and the tips of her ears turned red.
"What are your parents' requirements for their daughter-in-law?" Xiao asked worriedly.
Su Yue smiled and said, "Don't worry, Aunt Xiao. My parents are very nice and won't be picky about their daughter-in-law. Just live a good life with my eldest brother in the future."
As long as you don't make trouble and live a peaceful life, that's enough. We are common people now, so why should we be picky?
Besides, Luo Meiting looks really nice, I'm sure my parents will like her.
Xiao heaved a sigh of relief: "Then we are relieved."
Su Qiwen usually said this, and they thought he was saying it to comfort them. When they heard Su Yue say it today, they were at least half relieved.
Poor parents in the world.
For the sake of their daughter, they are willing to risk their reputation.
She was afraid that the Su family was still like when they first arrived, thinking that they were from the capital. When they saw these people, they would always think that they were still the high-ranking officials and would not be able to change their attitude for a while, and thus would look down on her daughter.
Su Yue understood their feelings very well and said with a smile, "Sister Meiting is so capable, she can handle both the living room and the kitchen. My parents love her so much that they are afraid that Sister Meiling will look down on my eldest brother."
Although this statement may sound a bit flattering, given Su Qiwen's conditions, it's not surprising that he looks down on him.
Luo Meiting said shyly, "What are you talking about, sister? Your brother is a very nice person."
She has a bold and aggressive personality, not the weak type. If she finds a strong man, how can they live together in a confrontation?
It just so happened that Su Qiwen met her criteria for choosing a son-in-law. He was strong yet gentle, gentle yet strong, and was considerate and attentive to others, unlike her, who was careless.
Su Yue pursed her lips and glanced at Su Qiwen at the other table. He was listening to their conversation with his ears perked up. When he heard Luo Meiting say that he was a nice person, he just curled his lips and smiled.
