Chapter 489, Settled
“Where is it so easy to find the right person?”
Yan Wenkai curled his lips, then rolled his eyes, and approached Xiao Yeyang and said with a smile: "Young Prince, we have captured so many people this time, and many of them can be used. Otherwise, can you also give me and my third brother a few people?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled faintly and glanced at Yan Wenkai: "If you want someone, go talk to Master Wu yourself."
Yan Wenkai suddenly stopped talking. If Master Wu was easy to talk to, would he still have to compete with his sister for the girl?
As he spoke, he glanced at his sister who was looking through the personnel information and said, "Big sister, those people have families with them, there are quite a few of them, if you think it's too much."
"not much!"
Daohua interrupted directly, "I added two more farms this year. I will start planting as soon as the spring plowing season comes next year, and that's when I need people."
Seeing that her fourth brother was about to say something, Daohua quickly added, "Fourth brother, you and third brother are always out and about, and you can always choose someone that suits your taste. But I'm different. I've always stayed in the backyard, and the circle of people I interact with is so small. Even so, you still want to compete with me for someone."
Yan Wenkai scratched his head awkwardly: "I just feel that the one-eyed and bald guys are a bit wasted in your hands."
Xiao Yeyang snorted, "Hurry up and eat your Laba porridge. People belong to the rice flowers. How she wants to use it is her business. Why are you worrying about it?"
Daohua nodded repeatedly, agreeing: "That's right."
On the side, Yan Wenxiu and Yan Wentao drank tea silently, watching their fourth brother being bullied by their eldest sister and Xiao Yeyang, without interrupting.
In their family, the fourth brother is the most shameless and stubborn. No matter whether it is the eldest sister or the little prince, any one of them can defeat him in a verbal battle, but he has to provoke both of them at the same time.
Why bother!
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua: "Alright, just focus on your own business and ignore this guy."
Daohua smiled and nodded: "Yeah." Then she looked through the list of people carefully one by one.
The people selected by Xiao Yeyang, including the one-eyed man and the bald man, all have families. People with families will have concerns, and when they have concerns, they will be cautious when doing things. This makes it easier to control them.
“I’m very happy with these people.”
Seeing Daohua happy, Xiao Yeyang also felt happy and asked with a smile, "How are you going to arrange for them?"
Daohua pondered for a moment. "Let's put them in the farm over at Taohua Village first. Let Master give me a look. I'll find a new place after the New Year. By the way, where are they?"
Xiao Yeyang: "You want to see them now? Then I'll ask Defu to bring them over?"
Daohua shook her head and said, "No need. Just send them directly to Taohua Village. I have to go see Master and Granny Gu in a few days anyway. It will be the same if I see them again then."
Xiao Yeyang was indifferent: "It's up to you."
Seeing that the matter was almost over, Yan Wenxiu began to urge Daohua to go back to the backyard.
Although Xiao Yeyang was very unhappy, there was nothing he could do but watch Daohua leave.
At the same time, in the Yan family guest house.
"Hexu, go get your second sister's birth date and time."
Master Han Er said to Han Hexu anxiously.
Han Hexu looked surprised: "Second Uncle, what happened?"
Seeing Han Hexu and Fang Hao looking at him in surprise, Second Master Han sensed his own agitation, calmed himself down, and said slowly, "We've been at the Yan family for quite some time now, and it's time to discuss your second sister's marriage with Wen Xiu."
Han Hexu was even more surprised: "Second Uncle, when my parents wrote to me a few days ago, didn't you say that we should wait and see, so as not to let the Yan family think that we are rushing to get married?"
Master Han Er choked and glared at his eldest nephew angrily.
Fang Hao's expression shifted, and he asked with a smile, "Second Uncle, do you know the man who stood with the young prince today?"
Master Han Er glanced at Fang Hao, then couldn't help but glare at his nephew again. Why didn't he have the same sharp eyesight as others?
"Well, I once saw that man from afar at the Prince Rui's banquet. If I'm not mistaken, he should be Wu Jingyi, the Left Commander-in-Chief of the Five Military Commands."
As soon as these words were spoken, Fang Hao and Han Hexu both widened their eyes at the same time.
Han Hexu swallowed his saliva and said, "Second Uncle, you didn't recognize the wrong person, did you?"
Master Han Er glanced at his nephew and was too lazy to talk nonsense with him.
Fang Hao was stunned for a moment, then muttered, "Wen Kai said that Commander Wu was half his and Wen Tao's master. Did I hear that correctly?"
Master Han nodded with a sullen face: "You heard it right."
Han Hexu was still a little bit incredulous: "Yan family. How could the Yan family know Governor Wu?"
Fang Hao was silent for a moment: "I think it was the young prince who pulled the strings."
Master Han nodded in agreement: "That should be the case. Since a gold mine has been discovered in Ningmen Mansion, it's impossible for the Emperor not to send people to investigate. So it's not surprising that Commander Wu would appear here."
Having said that, he paused.
"Before, among the younger generations of the Yan family, I thought Wenxiu was slightly better. I didn't expect that I was wrong. Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao must have some outstanding qualities to be recognized by Governor Wu."
Han Hexu said, "Wen Tao and Wen Kai are both very skilled in martial arts." He looked embarrassed. "Although they are younger than me, if they fight with all their strength, I may not be their match."
Fang Hao took over the conversation: "Not only are they strong in martial arts, but one of them is smart and the other is calm and careful. They are both rare talents."
Master Han II narrowed his eyes and said, "Come to think of it. Governor Wu is a man who is in charge of dispatching troops across the country. A man like him who only has brute force will definitely not be in his eyes."
Fang Hao and Han Hexu both nodded.
Master Han sighed and said, "With such outstanding descendants, the Yan family's future is bright."
He was so arrogant before because he felt that although Yan Wenxiu was a juren and had a father who was a prefect to rely on, the Yan family's foundation in officialdom was still too weak, and there was no one to help him at home. His future might not be smooth, and he might not be able to help the Han family.
But now, his two younger brothers have gotten close to Governor Wu. With this relationship with Governor Wu, the Yan family will have a certain guarantee to enter Beijing in the future.
As long as the Yan family came to the capital, the Han family would benefit from their relationship with the young prince. In this way, their family would no longer have to hold back.
Han Hexu understood his uncle's hidden meaning this time and decided not to act so politely anymore. "Then shall I go get my second sister's birth date and time, and then we'll go and make things clear with the Yan family?"
Master Han glared at Han Hexu and said, "Of course we can't be so direct, otherwise your second sister will really become a cabbage. Today happens to be Laba Festival, so I'll let you know during dinner tonight. If the Yan family really wants to marry into our family, they will take the initiative to propose it to us."
When it comes to marriage, it is better for the man to take the initiative.
On the second day of Laba Festival, Daohua went to Songheyuan to have breakfast with Old Lady Yan. As soon as she entered the door, she saw the old lady smiling and talking to Yan Siyu.
"Grandma, what are you so happy about?"
Before Old Lady Yan could say anything, Yan Siyu smiled and said, "Yiyi, you're going to have a sister-in-law soon. Are you happy?"
Daohua was stunned for a moment: "Did the Han family agree?"
Old Madam Yan nodded with a smile: "Second Master Han let the cat out of the bag last night, and after dinner your parents came over and told me about it."
Daohua said "Oh" and said, "So, is the relationship between Big Brother and the second daughter of the Han family settled?"
Old Madam Yan smiled and said, "Let's compare your horoscopes first. If they're a good match, then we'll get married. Next spring, I'll have your second uncle accompany your eldest brother to the capital to propose marriage to the Han family."
