The master said that the color was excellent, but the amount of fabric produced was small and it was gone this year. The next year's pieces were scheduled to be sold out, so if she wanted to see them, she would have to wait.
Later, she said that when she turns ten, she will ask her master how many pieces of good cloth he wants, and then he will buy her some clothes.
Now it sounds like this cloth is so precious that it has become a tribute, but she still doesn't want it!
But my master is very capable, good-looking, capable, and low-key.
The most important thing is that he is good to his master.
So, if Master marries him, he will be happy for the rest of his life, right?
When Caiwei's thoughts were distracted, Li Yuan also thought that it might be Wei Xiting's property.
It's just that she didn't express her position. She planned to ask about it in the letter when she returned to the post office to send the congratulatory and new year gifts.
If that's true, it might be much more convenient for her to buy from them if she needs it later.
Time flew by as Aunt Han and Li Yuan talked about their next conversation.
When Zhou Caijing came back, she had a calm face. After sending the girl down, she put the cloth and fur on the table and said to Aunt Han: "Auntie, do you want to go to the front yard and have a look?"
Aunt Han was confused and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's not that Fang Shumin who is making trouble, saying that Auntie, your relatives can go through the main door, but she, Mrs. Hou's relatives, can only go through the side door."
Aunt Han frowned when she heard this: "This is not what I asked for. It is what your father and mother want. Even your brother has the same idea. What does it have to do with me?"
"Who says it's not the case? The reason why Rui'er called her mother before was because of Fang Shumin. After entering the house, she first went to find her brother. Zhilin who was next to him said that there were distinguished guests in the house and it was inconvenient for him. As a result, she said She knew he was entertaining Shi Jianzhi, whom she had never met before, and wanted to introduce him to him from his brother-in-law."
Li Yuan almost rolled her eyes when she heard this, "Miss Fang, she has a really big face, maybe she's got something wrong, right?"
The angry Zhou Caijing was still saying, "My brother-in-law knows who she is, how can he recommend her? Besides, my brother-in-law is already married. What is she, an unmarried girl, doing when she meets a married man?"
"What's going on with this girl from the Fang family? Doesn't she just want to marry your brother-in-law?"
"She wanted to marry, so her brother-in-law had to marry him? Anyway, the brother-in-law didn't want to, and then she yelled outside the study, saying that a concubine's relatives and a divorced wife were not worthy of a great talent like Shi Jianzhi. What's more? She said that she knows many boudoir ladies, all of whom come from official families, and can help introduce them, which will help his future career."
Aunt Han, who was rarely angry at home, heard this and slapped the tea table hard, then got up and walked out.
"Yuan Niang, please rest here for a while while my aunt goes out to take a look. Don't worry, my aunt won't let anyone ruin your marriage!"
She thought her nephew's husband-in-law was very good, and how could he let a young girl with four-year-old indifference ruin her.
Zhou Caijing hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Aunt Han and said, "Auntie, wait a moment, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"My father was in the study. He probably heard Fang Shumin's words, and then he didn't know what he thought. He actually walked out of the study. Fang Shumin said that my sister was indeed not worthy of Shi Jianzhi."
"But after all, my sister is a relative of our Hou Mansion. If she wants to marry into the Hou Mansion, she must take a longer view and not just see the things in front of her. My father also said that for the sake of the Hou Mansion, my sister cannot go down to the court. ! Just for the sake of my brother-in-law’s career, I can take a concubine.”
"Let Fang Shumin handle this concubine. As soon as she can handle this matter, he will personally go to the Fang Mansion to propose marriage on behalf of his brother-in-law. He also made a request that the concubine must be from an official family and cannot be a girl. To fool, at least she must be a concubine, and she must be beautiful."
Aunt Han knew that Mrs. Hou had a bad relationship with her natal family, and she didn't really like Fang Shumin, her natal niece.
Hearing this, he couldn't help frowning and scolding: "Nonsense! Is the important matter of marriage a child's play? Yuan Niang and Shao An are a couple. Does he, the so-called uncle, need to intervene in this matter?"
"No! My brother-in-law was so angry that he asked someone to call his mother. Then my brother-in-law was also said to be very angry and wanted to leave. But my brother-in-law was afraid that he would be resentful towards the Marquis, so he held him back and said he would handle the matter. Let him stop fussing over the matter and just stand aside and watch!"
Aunt Han reacted very quickly. She quickly turned around and asked Li Yuan.
"Mother Yuan, did you meet Fang Shumin before you entered the house? How did she know who you are?"
"We met! The other party's attitude was very bad. We left without much contact with them. I think she knew our identities. She probably heard about it from the concierge at the back door?"
Zhou Caijing on the side nodded affirmatively: "Yes! Auntie, it was the concierge Yang Shu who told her so. As soon as Zhilin learned about it, he informed his brother-in-law. Later, when his mother arrived, he asked someone to beat up Yang Shu. Sold."
Aunt Han was still very angry.
"This kind of person who talks casually and talks about anything is not an exaggeration to kill! Okay, I already know about this, so I'm going to take a look. Yuan Niang, my aunt has some trivial matters at home today. You go back first. If my aunt is free another day, I can go to your place too."
After finishing her words, she said to Zhou Caijing: "Xiaojing, please put these things away, and take out the things that my aunt prepared before for your sister and two nieces. When your cousin-in-law and cousin go over, let them go. Go back first."
Zhou Caijing didn't want Li Yuan and the others to nod their heads when they saw the troubles in her house.
As soon as Aunt Han left, she apologized to Li Yuan and said, "Sister, I'm so sorry. Not long after you came here, I let you see such a troublesome thing."
"Don't worry, my mother and aunt will handle this matter. As for what Fang Shumin said, I think you need to take it to heart. My brother-in-law is very famous in the capital now, but he doesn't have this idea, and there are others There will be. Just like Fang Shumin, just like my father."
Although Li Yuan was very happy to see her aunt this time, she really felt bad when she encountered this kind of thing.
At this time, when she heard Zhou Caijing's words, she said: "I know what you said. But it is not us women who have the final say whether a man changes his mind. Your brother-in-law is a determined man, I believe he will not do this Of course, sometimes it’s hard to guard against it, so I’ll tell your brother-in-law to be more careful when he goes out.”
Her brother Xie should have good luck in the next two years.
As long as it's not something he wants, or if someone tries to plot it, it's likely to fail.

Since Xie Yanzhi entered the Marquis Mansion, he saw that the Marquis of Zhen Guo first despised his wife and daughter, but he could bear it.
I thought to myself, after all, this is one of the few relatives from Yuan Niang's maternal grandfather's family. Even if his character is not very good, it doesn't matter. I just need to have less contact with him in the future.
However, this kind of patience reached its peak when he heard the nonsense of a woman outside, and the Marquis still cooperated.
