Before the Ling family came to Qingshan Village, Song Yuangen did want to marry Cui Yujiao to change his family status.
But now, forget it. He looks down on this delicate and willful rich girl.
By getting along with the Ling family, Song Yuangen's horizons were completely broadened. He realized that a man does not have to rely on women to succeed, and he can also make a name for himself.
So he never looked for Cui Yujiao later. In order to avoid suspicion, he didn't even go to Dahe Village.
Anyway, Cui Yujiao has never accepted his feelings, so she should be very happy if he doesn't show up.
Song Yuangen was about to forget his youthful recklessness, but then Cui Yujiao came.
Her attitude changed 180 degrees. I don't know what she was thinking. It seemed like she fell in love with him.
But is he so charming?
Song Yuangen was very sensible. After dispersing the onlookers, he said to Cui Yujiao, "It's a pity that you came to see me. In the past, I was just a toad wanting to eat swan meat and overestimating my own abilities.
During this time, I have clearly realized the gap between you and me. Don't worry, I will never bother you again! "
Then he went back to the kitchen and picked up a fish: "It's quite cold, go back and make some fish soup to cool you down."
Cui Yujiao didn't expect that she would be rejected before she even said a word.
It felt bad for a while.
Instantly, he lost the confidence he had before coming here. He stood there looking at his toes, hesitating for a long time and looking up: "Brother Song, if I say I am willing..."
Before he could finish his words, Song Yuangen interrupted him: "My father proposed marriage to me a few days ago..."
He told half the truth and kept the other half, not informing the other party of the failed marriage proposal, hinting at Cui Yujiao while preserving his own dignity.
Seeing Cui Yujiao didn't move, Song Yuangen put the hemp rope tied to the fish into her hand and said, "You are young, beautiful, well-educated, and from the capital. I believe you will be able to marry a man of your dreams."
After saying that, he went back to the room and closed the door tightly.
Cui Yujiao stood there for a long time before turning around. At that moment, her heart felt like it was being torn apart.
I can’t say I love you, but I don’t like you that much either.
It’s just that the spare tire who I promised to use so confidently suddenly left, and I feel a little lost and unwilling.
Cui Yuanzhi came out from behind the tree and sighed: "Let's go!"
This sentence made Cui Yujiao cry. She asked Cui Yuanzhi: "Brother, am I really that unbearable?"
Cui Yuanzhi rubbed her head: "Who said that? My sister is the best sister in the world."
Chi Xingyue was in no mood to watch any further, so she pulled Ling Jiheng's sleeve and left.
My heart is blocked, and I feel like I have read a novel, a combination of classic plots such as white jade light and cinnabar mole, missed opportunities and mistakes, and unrequited love. I feel so uncomfortable that I can't describe it.
She didn't like Cui Yujiao, but she felt a little sympathy for her.
Although her behavior is unpleasant, she is working hard and looking for opportunities whenever she can.
Just trying in the wrong direction.
But then again, in ancient times, how many women could change their destiny on their own?
This is the way the world is, there is no need to be overly harsh.
Ling Jiheng seemed to have heard her thoughts and reached out to grasp her cold fingertips: "She has a good brother."
Chi Xingyue nodded: "Yeah!"
The two of them strolled across the snow. Chi Xingyue looked at the increasingly exposed ground and said with a smile, "Spring is here! Calculating the time, it's time to plant trees!"
According to the calendar she used before she wore it, today is March 11th in the Gregorian calendar, and tomorrow is Arbor Day.
Ling Jiheng raised his eyebrows: "What do you want to plant? Apple trees, peach trees, or grape vines?"
Chi Xingyue glared at him: "Am I so greedy?"
After saying that, he shook his head and said, "Let's plant a ginkgo tree. I heard it can live for thousands of years. Even if we meet in the future...it will still be alive!"
Ling Jiheng tightened his grip and nodded after a moment: "Okay!"
As the two stepped into the large blue brick and tile house, Chi Xingyue instantly turned into an attentive little bee.
After deducting the cost from the silver given by Mrs. Xie, it was divided equally among the elders. Chi Xingyue, who came up with the idea, did not take a penny.
Shu Muyun was unhappy, and took her hand and said, "The skirts of the Bai and Liu families are made of silk and satin, and if you don't share, your family will accept it.
But you spent money to buy the fabrics for these skirts. You spent so much time and energy on them, how can you not want anything?"
Chi Xingyue wanted to say that she was rich and didn't care about these trivial matters.
However, Shu Muyun disagreed and did not want her family to ignore her efforts.
So he took the lead and took out one-third of the silver and gave it to Chi Xingyue. Seeing this, others followed suit.
Chi Xingyue knew that her mother-in-law was doing this for her own good, so she didn't refuse. She put the silver in Ling Jiheng's hand with a smile and said a few witty remarks.
Three days passed in a flash. During these days, the snow in Qingshan Village melted faster and faster, as if the clouds had cleared and the sun was shining. Everyone felt the temperature rising.
Cui Yujiao's visit to Qingshan Village did not cause any waves. It was said that Song Lizheng was involved in the matter and was cleaning up the mess for his son.
The people in Dahe Village also learned about the old emperor's death, and the group of people who were originally waiting for his reinstatement collapsed in an instant.
Feeling hopeless about life.
Old Master Cui was one of them, so he didn't think so highly of Cui Jingzhong. The second son of Cui took the opportunity to whisper in his ear and save Cui Yujiao.
However, not all the exiles in Dahe Village were pessimistic. For example, the Chen sisters were secretly happy.
Because the new emperor will grant amnesty upon his ascension to the throne, then they will be free from the shackles of their status and will be able to return to Jiangning Prefecture.
He completely forgot that his family property had been confiscated and he didn't even have the money to travel. How could he go back and be a superior person?
All I can say is that it's just daydreaming and wishful thinking.
In the past few days, several groups of people came to the Ling family.
Some came alone, some came with friends, but without exception, they all came for the horse-faced skirt.
It is not difficult to imagine that this is inseparable from the publicity of the ladies of the Bai and Liu families.
Chi Xingyue neither raised the price nor had a sale. He sold all the clothes at normal prices. He also treated the visitors comfortably and said that the clothes were worth buying.
Although it is still a period of national mourning, the trend of wearing horse-faced skirts has quietly emerged in Yunrou County.
However, ordinary people cannot find Qingshan Village, so they can only put their hopes on places like cloth shops and garment stores.
The shop owners were also very business-minded and immediately sent people to find out how to make the horse-faced skirt.
The master craftsman can learn most of it after just a few glances. Although not as meticulous as the Ling family's work, it still looks pretty good.
Among them, we have to praise Chi Xingyue's intelligence.
The buttons are made of jadeite, Hetian jade and pearls. Even if the style is imitated, the elegance of the skirt itself is difficult to replicate.
What's more, the embroidery is done with the technique of Jiangnan.
In the entire Yunrou County, only the embroiderer at the cloth shop where Chi Xingyue bought the material could match her craftsmanship.
So although the rich ladies and young ladies felt a little upset about the horse-faced skirts everywhere on the streets, they were also proud that what they wore was different from others and looked very high-end at first glance.
