Chapter 658 If I can’t get what I want, I wish her peace and happiness
Xu Minghui and his group of angry monkeys came quietly and left without disturbing anyone.
Sang Zhixia and Nan Weiwei were completely unaware of this. A few days later, when Sang Zhixia finally had a rough idea of the seedlings in the greenhouse and said they could return to the city temporarily, Nan Weiwei, who was covered in mud, was still a little reluctant.
"Sister Xia Xia, are we leaving today?"
Nan Weiwei pointed to the greenhouse where she had been busy for a long time and said, "Can these seedlings grow into crops like this?"
"able."
Sang Zhixia explained: "The land will not let down our sweat and hard work. The rest can only be left to time."
"Go change your clothes, we'll set off in half an hour."
The longer Nan Weiwei spent with Sang Zhixia, the more childish she became. She obeyed Sang Zhixia's every word, which was more effective than listening to anyone else at home.
Seeing Nan Weiwei chasing the little rabbit on the roadside, Sang Zhixia said to the farm manager, "Have you prepared everything I asked you to prepare?"
"Don't worry, Boss. We have everything ready."
The steward said with a smile, "According to your instructions, apart from what is sent home, the rest of the preparations are all local products found on the farm."
"The first clutch of eggs, tender black-bone chickens that haven't yet hatched, some of our homemade dried meat and game, the finest nectar, and two boxes of the best leather have all been packed."
Nan Weiwei said that she was living under someone else's roof, but even without her saying it, everyone else knew what was really going on.
As the darling of the Nan family, he followed Sang Zhixia to the farm and worked hard for so many days despite the mud. It would be bad for him to go back empty-handed.
But the gift cannot be too expensive.
Various local products produced on the farm are very suitable.
Sang Zhixia thought for a moment and added, "I remember the fruits and vegetables over there in the shed are just about fresh and tender. Hurry up and take some people over to pick some and pack them up. I'll take them back with me."
Half an hour later, because the sun was too strong today, Sang Zhixia took Nan Weiwei and got on the carriage with Bingjian in it.
Nan Weiwei didn't care about the three extra carriages behind her. She just said excitedly, "Sister Xia Xia, wait for me to go back this time. I will bring more people to help you."
"I'm telling you, I have a team of guards. They're all experts in the martial arts arena. They're strong, so they're definitely good at their jobs!"
You're just sitting around doing nothing at home, so why not get to work?
Sang Zhixia was amused: "When you go back this time, I'm afraid you'll have to stay at home for a few days."
Nan Weiwei was not happy: "I don't want to be at home."
"It's boring to stay at home. It's more fun on the farm."
It's interesting to follow Sang Zhixia. What I hear and see are things I didn't know before. I am so busy every day that I don't have time to think about why Xu Minghui didn't agree to marry her.
Sang Zhixia thought of the news she had received yesterday and said with a meaningful smile, "The farm is right here. You can come and visit whenever you want. Why rush?"
"Go back first. You haven't been home for such a long time. The old lady and the others must be worried."
Sang Zhixia teased Nan Weiwei in a soft voice to relieve her boredom.
At the same time, at the Nan family, the old lady looked at Song Liu, who had come to report the news first, and said with a smile: "Is your master already on the way back?"
Song Liu said respectfully, "In reply to the old lady, if the road is smooth, we can enter the city in an hour at most."
"Look at how meticulously they follow these rules."
The old lady said to Madam Nan beside her, "She is obviously only a few years older than us, but she has all the proper etiquette and manners, and there is nothing she lacks in consideration."
Before the person arrives, the visiting card is delivered first, stating the time and expressing the intention to ask for advice, without causing any embarrassment.
Such a complete person happens to be from the Xu family.
Fortunately, it is from the Xu family.
Madam Nan said helplessly, "After all, he is the one who managed such a large business by himself. His meticulous thinking is really different from ordinary people."
No wonder the old lady only saw it once, but she was full of praise when she mentioned it again.
The old lady smiled and shook her head, then said to Song Liu, "I understand what your boss means. Go back."
"When she arrives with that bastard of mine, I'll have something to thank her for."
After Song Liu left, the ladies of the Nan family, who had been holding back and not interrupting, could no longer hold back.
Madam Nan Er said, "Old Madam, what do you think about Weiwei?"
Sang Zhixia and Nan Weiwei on the farm didn't know that Xu Minghui came to the Nan family alone three days ago and visited the elders of the Nan family.
Xu Minghui was standing at the place where Songliu Station is today, and he said things that Nan Weiwei probably never thought of in her dreams.
Xu Minghui did not hide his feelings for Nan Weiwei, nor did he mention a word about Nan Weiwei's infatuation with him.
He only talked about his current situation.
The Xu family's revival is in sight, but his current safety and prosperity have nothing to do with him. Xu Minghui dare not shamelessly say how much he has contributed.
Faced with his current obscurity, Xu Minghui was modest but not self-deprecating. He faced the scrutiny of the Nan family elders calmly and directly explained his purpose.
Xu Minghui originally wanted to wait until he had some merit before coming to propose marriage.
But no matter how you think about it, Nan Weiwei seems to be suffering because of him.
Despite Sang Zhixia's repeated attempts to cover up the truth, there were still people outside gossiping about Nan Weiwei.
Xu Minghui didn't want to hear a word of this.
He could be despised as a villain who used his common status to curry favor with the Nan family, and he didn't care whether he was considered a gentleman by others.
If there is any stigma, it is because of his current lack of talent and failure to give Nan Weiwei the dignity and respect she deserves, rather than because of Nan Weiwei's feelings for him.
In theory, Xu Minghui should not be the one to initiate the marriage of his children, otherwise it would be disrespectful to the woman.
But Xu Minghui has his own concerns.
He could guess what the elders of the Nan family were worried about, and much of their previous restraint was due to this.
Before getting permission from the Nan family elders, he didn't want to get involved with the parents on both sides and make the situation worse.
If he wants to marry Nan Weiwei, he cannot let Nan Weiwei suffer any grievances again.
We must not let the elders of the Nan family have any concerns.
Xu Minghui stated his purpose straight out of the gate, and in front of everyone in the Nan family, he promised: "If the elders are willing to give up their love and agree to this marriage, then after I return home, I will respectfully ask the elders to choose an auspicious day to propose marriage."
"If the elders do not allow it, then I will leave Lingnan as soon as possible."
"For the rest of my life, I will pledge my life to you and never appear before Miss Nan again, and never disturb her tender heart again."
If she cannot get what she wants, then I wish her a smooth and peaceful life.
After Xu Minghui left, the Nan family gathered together to discuss for a long time, but until now, Nan Weiwei's biological mother, Mrs. Nan, still couldn't make up her mind.
Madam Nan said with a look of regret, "The Xu family has a century-old tradition of integrity, and no one from the elders down has taken concubines. The elders are loving, and the children and grandchildren are harmonious and motivated. Such a family should be a very good one."
"only……"
Madam Nan couldn't help but worry, "Xu Minghui is no ordinary person. Sooner or later, he will rise to prominence. Such a person, whether in character or decisiveness, is definitely not comparable to our Weiwei."
"Today, Xu Minghui dared to say that he would treat her well for the rest of his life, but what about the future? People's hearts are fickle, and we have seen such things before."
What is even more worrying is that the Nan family cannot suppress Xu Minghui.
It also couldn't suppress the Xu family, which was gradually gaining power.
With Xu Yu's astonishing military exploits in front and Sang Zhixia's endless good fortune in the back, the Xu family's revival was inevitable.
All the glory of the Nan family came from the blood of their ancestors, but by the time of Nan Weiwei's generation, the Nan family had no blood left. All that was left was a huge fortune, but there was no one with the power to support Nan Weiwei.
If Xu Minghui really becomes a heartless man in the future, Nan Weiwei...
The old lady smiled without saying anything, stroking the Buddhist beads on her wrist and looking at the Third Madam of the Nan Family: "Old Third Madam, what do you think?"
The Third Madam smiled and covered her mouth, then said slowly, "I actually think Xu Minghui and Wei Wei are a perfect match."
"Sister-in-law, don't just think that Xu Minghui is a problem because he's hard to control. Think about how someone like him, who will eventually rise to prominence, will protect Weiwei with all his might."
"Weiwei is simple, so there are bound to be bumps and bruises. But with someone like this willing to protect her, why worry about Weiwei getting wronged?"
The Xu family is protective of their own people. This was evident when Sang Zhixia was troubled by Zuo Cheng shortly after the Xu family entered the royal city.
Nan Weiwei has entered the Xu family, which means she is recognized by the Xu family, and it will not be just Xu Minghui who will protect her in the future.
Madam Nan was still hesitant, and the gentle Second Madam of the Nan family smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, that's what I meant."
"Apart from anything else, Weiwei's husband must be a man of noble character and self-respect. In my opinion, what do you think of Xu Minghui?"
Madam Nan smiled bitterly and said, "Of course everything is good."
To be fair, even if you look at the entire Lingnan Royal City, it is rare to find someone with such character among the many children of noble families.
Madam Nan Er laughed again: "What do you think of the Xu family's tradition and the conduct of their family members, sister-in-law?"
"That's even more speechless."
Madam Nan was not one to turn a deaf ear to external affairs. When she spoke of the Xu family's conduct, she could not help but sigh, "The family's harmonious and upright character is something no other family can match."
"Isn't this the end?"
Madam Nan Er smiled and said, "If it were another family, we would have to worry about Weiwei being bullied by her mother-in-law and being embarrassed by her sisters-in-law."
"But think about the Xu family's young mistress, and then think about the aunts and sisters-in-law who have to get along with Weiwei. Is there any one of them who is mean and harsh?"
Even if Xu Minghui behaves improperly in the future, there are still so many elders in the Xu family.
Why worry about no one making decisions for Nan Weiwei?
not to mention……
Madam Nan San narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Also, I heard that the Young Master and Young Madam of the Xu family have a very close relationship. Young Master Xu would not tolerate Madam being subjected to even the slightest bit of humiliation."
"With such a good brother as a role model, why should I worry about the bad brother behind me?"
"If he really did something shameful, there's no guarantee that we wouldn't even have time to go and ask for justice. Young Master Xu, now a General of the Cavalry, would have to use his silver spear to punish him."
"Mrs. Xu is also a very good person. She treats our Weiwei like a younger sister. Weiwei will not tolerate any grievances in the future, so just rest assured."
Mrs. Nan was already quite interested, and now she couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
"So, can you agree to this?"
The old lady smiled and said, "That's not how I agreed."
"Xu Minghui came here on his own. How can this be considered a marriage proposal? Wait until the eldest sister-in-law of the Xu family returns and let his family choose a date before coming back."
"otherwise……"
“No.”
