It turns out that the reason why Chu Tianshu dared to make trouble today was precisely because he planned to get close to Su Yuntao, the prefect of Jiangzhou.
So he boasted to Haikou and promised to make a thousand pieces of exquisite silk and satin for his birthday banquet.
Of course, this kind of thing must be a fantasy, and with their abilities, they simply cannot do it.
But even if Su Yun blamed it, he couldn't find it on himself because it was in the name of Mr. Chu.
Chu Tianshu and the others threw up their sleeves and left. However, if it were not for the loom made by Xiao Ran, he might have been in a panic today, but now he only has a calm and calm look on his face.
At the same time, Xiao Ran, who was in solitary confinement, ignored the food and threw it away. He is now going on a hunger strike to resist the marriage.
But just when Xiao Ran was throwing away the food, Qingtong suddenly came here with some delicious food.
"I won't eat! If you don't divorce me! Then I will go on a hunger strike and die!"
Although Xiao Ran said so, his stomach was still very honest. It was already making a growling sound. Xiao Ran couldn't help but pursed his lips and swallowed.
Seeing Xiao Ran's duplicity, Qingtong couldn't help but laugh, and immediately explained: "Uncle, please don't be hard on yourself. The lady made this herself, and the taste is unparalleled."
As soon as he heard that it was made by Chu Yanhong, Xiao Ran immediately didn't want to eat it anymore, and his reaction became more intense.
Seeing Xiao Ran like this, Qingtong couldn't help but said angrily: "Uncle! Stop being like this! The lady has been working hard for a long time to make this. If the lady didn't suffer from that strange disease, she would definitely not be like this now. .”
Seeing this, Xiao Ran asked tentatively: "You just said that Chu Yanhong was sick? What's that about?"
"Miss was not very fat when she was a child, but one day she got sick. After she recovered, she started to gain weight and became what she is now."
Speaking of this, Qingtong couldn't help crying sadly, because she sympathized with Chu Yanhong's experience.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Ran asked dubiously: "You really didn't lie to me?"
"No, uncle, if you don't believe it, you can look at that portrait. That's what the young lady looked like when she was a child." Qingtong said seriously, pointing to a portrait not far away.
Looking along, Xiao Ran saw the portrait indeed. Taking a closer look, he was sure that she was not lying, because the expression in the portrait was indeed exactly the same as Chu Yanhong's.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ran suddenly thought that the words he said before must have hurt her heart unintentionally.
Looking at the fragrant food, he seemed to see Chu Yanhong busy in the kitchen. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
Xiao Ran slowly walked towards the food and started to eat it with big mouthfuls. Seeing Xiao Ran like this, Qingtong couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth happily, because she was happy for her young lady.
Just as Xiao Ran was enjoying his meal, the door was opened again and Mr. Chu came in.
If he had followed the previous rules, Xiao Ran would definitely have told him to divorce him, but now, even if he still had such thoughts in his heart, it was a bit difficult to say it.
"Xiao Ran, I know you don't like my daughter, I can let you leave, but don't forget, I spent five hundred taels of silver to buy you, a cheap son-in-law."
Seeing the smile on Mr. Chu's face, Xiao Ran said in a strange way: "I will not break off the engagement, Mr. Chu."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a little regretful.
Hearing Xiao Ran's answer, Mr. Chu was a little surprised, but he quickly said with a smile: "You don't have to make me happy, I know what you think, and I can promise you here that as long as you can help me create more Value, I will definitely not let Yan Hong hit you and keep your innocence."
"In addition, you can find a second house. I will not interfere with this. You can also leave the Chu family, but at least wait until I close my eyes. Of course, you can also take away half of the property. The most important thing is that you must let Yan Hong Take over the Chu family and establish a firm foothold."
Xiao Ran fully agreed to the conditions offered by Mr. Chu, but Xiao Ran did not do what Mr. Chu thought, but out of his own inner considerations.
After all, I am very weak here now. I can't break out of the world on my own. As for my cheap dad, let alone that. It's good that he didn't kill me.
If he can help the Chu family improve their strength, he can also have a lot of wealth, not to mention that he can also find a second house, so that he doesn't have to face Chu Yanhong every day.
After eating, Xiao Ran stood outside Chu Yanhong's boudoir, struggling in his heart.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and Chu Yanhong asked impatiently: "What are you doing standing there, come in quickly, I've packed the bed for you."
Xiao Ran closed his eyes and walked straight in, but saw that the decoration inside was not as sloppy as he imagined, but was extremely neat.
Looking at the finished floor bed, Xiao Ran couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. Although he slept on the floor bed, he no longer had to sleep with Chu Yanhong and suffered less torture.
"Don't look at it. This is where I sleep. You go and sleep on the bed."
Hearing what Chu Yanhong said, Xiao Ran was shocked and asked with a puzzled expression: "Shouldn't men sleep on the floor and women sleep on the bed?"
"Aren't I afraid that you won't be comfortable sleeping? It's easy to catch cold on the ground. Besides, if we stand together, you will look like a woman." Chu Yanhong joked.
"Let's not make a bed on the floor and sleep on the bed together." Xiao Ran suddenly suggested.
Chu Yanhong looked at Xiao Ran suspiciously, as if this guy had taken the wrong medicine, and stepped forward to touch Xiao Ran's forehead.
Regarding Chu Yanhong's movements, Xiao Ran naturally wanted to dodge at first, but he still restrained this thought.
After Chu Yanhong made sure that this guy hadn't burned out his brain, she couldn't help but joked: "What? Does the condition my father offers you give you hope?"
"No, in fact, as you just said, the ground is too cold. If you can't squeeze out, then I can just lay the floor. After all, I am your man."
Hearing Xiao Ran's words, Chu Yanhong, who was cared about by Xiao Ran for the first time, couldn't help but show a shy look on her face.
"If she didn't have those three chins, she would look very cute like this." Xiao Ran thought to himself.
"Okay Yanhong, it's time for us to get down to business. Please tell me all the current situation, so that I can better help you take over the Chu family."
Seeing Xiao Ran's serious look, Chu Yanhong couldn't help but like him a little more, and believed that he could help her gain a foothold. Sure enough, the rumors outside were all lies.
