Li Fugui felt that it was better to work harder than to be looked down upon and wronged for his own sake.
Li Fugui and he Niang have been married for 20 years. Li Fugui just opened his mouth. He Niang knew what Li Fugui thought. Although he Niang didn't think Li Fugui was a merchant, he thought of Jiu Jiu's words today. After he Niang sighed faintly, he went to the warehouse to prepare tomorrow's gifts.
As soon as Mu Qing got home, Li Cuilian immediately welcomed him and said anxiously, "my son, your marriage with the merchant's daughter is settled?"
In Li Cuilian's opinion, Mu Qing is handsome and still a scholar. It's a waste of talent to match Jiu Jiu. However, now they are poor and urgently need Jiu Jiu's money to make them live better.
Moreover, now Mu Qing is a scholar, and she is also a scholar's mother. It's too much to continue to sell embroidery to make money.
The reason why she let Mu Qing agree is that she also has the intention of making her life more comfortable with Jiujiu's dowry.
Being looked at by Li Cuilian with expectant eyes, Mu Qing's heart becomes more and more impatient. Although he and Li Cuilian have made up their minds to make their life better with Jiujiu's dowry, Mu Qing's heart is a burst of irritability at the thought of how Jiujiu said him today.
Jiujiu looked at him with sarcastic eyes, as if he were a toad who wanted to eat swan meat. She said, you are a poor scholar, and you deserve to know my name. She said, you can't have a thousand liang of gold in your life. She also said that you are just a poor scholar, and you don't deserve a beauty like me.
Clearly, clearly, she is just the daughter of a humble merchant, but she dares to speak to herself in such a tone. At the thought of here, Mu Qing wants to tear Jiujiu's face.
How dare she, how dare she.
Mu Qing didn't want Li Cuilian to know that she had been humiliated by Jiujiu, nor did she want to know that she was threatened by Mo Yuanming and knelt on the ground to reply. She could only clench her fist and bite her teeth and say, "mother, that woman is just the daughter of a merchant. Although I have no family, my integrity still exists. Even if I don't have enough to eat, I don't bow like the smell of copper. Don't mention it again."
Mu Qing then threw his sleeves back to the house.
Li Cuilian, who thought that Mu Qing would tell her good news when she came back today, didn't expect that Mu Qing, who told herself yesterday, would go back on his word today.
Li Cuilian's first reaction was not why Mu Qing would repent, but that the rich and noble days she had got were going to fly away.
If Mu Qing doesn't want to be with Jiujiu and doesn't have Jiujiu's dowry, won't she have to live such a life relying on a little money like embroidery.
His eyes are not good enough. Making money by embroidery will only be less and less. As Mu Qing wants to test people, there are more and more places to spend money. At the thought of here, Li Cuilian's head can rush out several white hairs.
Li Cuilian quickly catches up with Mu Qing and wants to know why Mu Qing refuses to marry Jiu Jiu. However, after seeing the wooden door of Mu Qing's confinement, Li Cuilian stops, sighs and turns away.
Now Mu Qing can't listen to anything. He can only talk to him tomorrow.
Unlike the tangles in Jiujiu's family and the worries of MuQing's family, as soon as Mo Yuanming returned to the palace, he directly said to the prince and princess, "I've found the right person. You quickly prepare a bride price for me. I'll go to her house for employment in a while."
In fact, Mo Yuanming thinks that it's a little late to hire him tomorrow. However, thinking that Jiu Jiu hasn't let go and said to marry him tomorrow, and that he's in a hurry to hire something tomorrow, it will appear that he doesn't pay attention to Jiu Jiu. Therefore, Mo Yuanming can only bear the idea of marrying Jiu Jiu home now and let the Lord and the princess prepare the bride price first.
The prince and the princess, who were discussing with the prince about what to give for the Empress Dowager's birthday next month, were surprised by Mo Yuanming's sudden voice that I found the right person.
The prince and the princess looked at each other. A moment later, they asked tentatively, "what does my son's lover look like?"
When the prince asked what Jiujiu looked like, Mo Yuanming narrowed his eyes slightly, touched his jaw and carefully recalled Jiujiu's appearance: "big eyes, high nose, small mouth, oval face, not high or low height, and his voice is very nice. If you see her, you will like her."
Looking at Mo Yuanming's height, the prince and the princess breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. After they confirmed their eyes, they affirmed an idea in their hearts, that is.
Fortunately, Mo Yuanming's lover is a woman, not a man.
If it were a man, the prince would cry to death.
Seeing that it was a woman, the prince's expression relaxed a lot. Looking at Mo Yuanming, he said, "I don't know the woman's name and where she lives?"
"Her name is Jiuniang. She lives at home..." Mo Yuanming looked sideways at his entourage and asked, "where does she live?"
Prince and Princess: "
Seeing Mo Yuanming ask himself where Jiujiu lives, the attendant quickly came forward and whispered Jiujiu's residence. After hearing the attendant say Jiujiu's residence, the prince and the princess frowned instantly.
She has inquired about the names of ladies in the capital. Why haven't she heard the girl's name?
The princess was shocked when she thought of the bastards Mo Yuanming had done. She thought that Mo Yuanming would not be a brothel woman after sleeping in the brothel a few days ago.
Afraid that Mo Yuanming would be angry when she asked directly, the princess asked politely, "how are the girl's parents?"
Mo Yuanming lowered her eyes and thought that she had just seen Li Fugui's round and fat appearance. She calmly replied to the Princess: "her father is healthy, and I didn't see her mother."
Seeing Mo Yuanming's face, he naturally talked about Jiujiu's father and mother. The princess's heart was much more relaxed. It can be seen that she is a good girl. At most, her family background is not very good.
Although Mo Yuanming really has a bad reputation in other people's eyes, as parents, they will only think their children are perfect. Therefore, for the princess, no matter how Mo Yuanming is, Mo Yuanming is a rare excellent child in heaven.
Moreover, Mo Yuanming is no longer promising. He is also an official of the imperial court and inherits the throne. Although she does not require to be matched, she must at least have some similarities, such as Jiujiu, which she has never heard of before.
The princess looked at Mo Yuanming, pursed her lips, lowered her voice and said, "ming'er, what does your favorite father do?"
"Oh, her father is a merchant and a businessman. The Yunyue building I often go to is his father's property."
