Although he agreed, Ji Mingxi still had his own considerations: "But there is no rush for the wedding, just now-"
He paused, "Weian said he wants to take part in the Spring Examination. So, how about we get married after that?"
In this way, if things really don't work out later, you can still regret it.
Ji Mingxi sighed.
Wu Qi naturally had no objection: "I will listen to you, Lord."
The two families talked for a few more words and agreed on the subsequent matters regarding the marriage proposal ceremony. Then Wu Qi left with his family.
Wu Weian was reluctant to leave and looked back at Ji Yunxi every three steps.
Ji Yunxi returned his gaze steadily until their family got on the simple carriage.
The carriage was full of people and seemed a little overwhelmed, so it slowly left.
Ji Mingxi stood at the door of the Marquis's residence and called out, "Yun Niang."
Ji Yunxi greeted with her eyes: "?"
Ji Mingxi pondered, "What do you like about this young master?"
Wu Weian was acting the whole time, trying to disgust everyone.
Ji Yunxi certainly knew her brother's concerns. Even if she told the truth now, saying that she liked him for his good acting skills and his ability to gain power and use dirty tricks, her brother probably wouldn't believe it.
So she thought about it and uttered two words: "Be obedient?"
Ji Mingxi: “…”
She seems to be quite obedient, just like the other ladies in the mansion who follow their husbands' lead.
"Okay," he sighed, wanting his tea again.
Chapter 14 Yunniang, I Miss You So Much
Four days later.
It was still Wu Weian’s shabby bedroom.
Old Qin, who had not been seen for many days, came again and happily warmed himself by the fire.
Wu Weian no longer wore a blanket or tried to put on clothes.
He sat at the table and concentrated for a moment, then wrote a few words on the piece of paper, carefully rolled it up and put it into a small bamboo tube.
Mr. Qin: "Every time I see you writing bamboo bags, I worry about everyone."
Wu Weian laughed and said, "Mr. Qin, you are really asking for trouble."
"I'm afraid the martial arts world is going to be in chaos again." Old Doctor Qin has a kind heart. "The New Year is almost here, can't you let everyone have a good year?"
"If the old does not go, the new will not come." Wu Weian stood up with the bamboo bag, opened the door and went out to throw it to Xuezhu who was sweeping the floor diligently.
Old Qin looked at him and sighed again: "Your land is about to be swept away, and this kid is still so stupid."
"Mr. Qin, do you have anything else to say?" Wu Weian was annoyed and started to chase him away.
He is not an idle man. Although he is in the Wu Mansion now, he still has a lot of things to do.
It can be said that the number of letters submitted by subordinates was no less than the number of memorials that the emperor reviewed every day.
Old Qin said cheerfully, "It's quite warm in your room. I'll sit here for a while to cool off."
Wu Weian remained silent.
"The Ji family is really kind." Old Qin began to praise, "That Ming Shuang is very good, and your wife is also very good. As soon as you got married, they sent you silver charcoal."
"I'll have to pay it back sooner or later." Wu Weian said this, but he honestly covered the small heater given by Ji Yunxi with his hands.
It is true that life is comfortable when you have money.
The house is warm and my heart is warm too.
Old Qin looked him up and down. "You have a nice figure, but your appearance is not outstanding. You are also very evil and you are not a good person. Miss Ji San actually fell in love with you. You must be blessed by your ancestors."
This old man just talks a lot.
Wu Weian didn't bother to pay attention and continued reading the letter.
"Oh, I'm here for business." Old Qin talked for a long time before finally turning the subject back to the topic. "I've bought almost all the herbs for the young master from Yuzhou, but I'm still missing the most important one."
Wu Wei'an had a headache and was very alert: "You want money again?"
Although he has someone behind him now and is not short of money.
But he also didn't want to ask others for money every day. After all, as a man, he had to maintain his dignity.
Old Qin laughed and said, "Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy this medicinal herb. You know Kaitai Manor, right?"
"Yes." This is the Ji family's property. There will be a big auction at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month. His fiancée is probably busy with this recently. "Is your medicine Danzhi?"
Although his tone was questioning, his face was full of certainty.
This Danzhi grows on the Dantag Peak in the north.
Dantag Peak has always been known as a sacred mountain in the local area. The snow never melts all year round, and the weather is changeable, making it extremely dangerous to climb the mountain.
Basically nine out of ten people who go in die.
But there are many medicinal herbs in the mountains, so many people will continue to come here.
This Danzhi grows on Dantag Peak.
If you add it to poison, the poison will become more poisonous.
If added to medicines to cure diseases and save lives, the efficacy can be increased thousands of times.
Therefore, many people of all kinds have come to the capital city recently, all for this medicine.
There are also powerful families in the capital, and even royal children who are watching covetously.
The final price was probably not a small amount.
Old Qin nodded: "Miss Ji San is your fiancée, you..."
Wu Weian interrupted him: "She won't agree."
Qin Lao: "Of course I won't agree to take the whole thing, but I only need a small corner. If I take a little bit, no one will notice during the auction, and it won't affect Danzhi at all."
Wu Wei'an lowered his eyes, remained silent for a while, and uttered a word: "Oh."
Never mind, face is not important.
-
After the wedding was over, Ji Yunxi started to get busy.
Throughout the year, there are auctions of all sizes held every once in a while.
But this one at the end of the year is the most grand and contains the most rare treasures.
Ji Yunxi spent most of her thoughts on this.
That day, she was decorating the hall of Kaitai Manor.
Baofu came over and said, "Miss, the eldest son of the Wu family is outside and wants to see you."
Ji Yunxi, who was busy, didn't even raise her head: "Let him in."
Soon, Wu Weian came in with his head lowered and small steps, looking as if he was afraid to meet strangers.
