Chapter 500 Four people eat barbecue together

"You don't need to thank me, I didn't do anything." Wei Jin also replied.

"Why didn't the second brother do anything? The second brother has done a lot of things. Not only was the coal mine taken down with the help of the second brother, the second brother also silently supported me to do many things that other women could not do. Please find me, and the second brother tried his best to help me stop it." Wei Ruo counted the things Wei Jinyi did for himself.

Wei Jin also looked at Wei Ruo's smiling face and didn't answer.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Ruo stared at Wei Jinyi and said: "There are not many people in this world who can pamper me so much. My nanny is one, Meimei is one, and now there is one more you."

"Well, we are all your family." Wei Jin also said.

Hearing this, the corners of Wei Ruo's mouth kept rising.

Family, what a beautiful word.

Although the nanny, Meimei, and the second brother are not related to her by blood, they all gave her warmth beyond the family.

She is very satisfied.

After that, Wei Ruo, accompanied by Wei Jinyi, bought a manor in Hejian Mansion, which was near the cotton field she bought.

Because it is located in the suburbs, the price of the manor is not expensive, at least it is much cheaper than the shops in the capital.

1,600 taels of silver bought the Zhuangzi covering an area of ​​more than 20 mu, including the large bamboo forest behind the manor, all of which belonged to Wei Ruo.

And there are two huge warehouses in this manor that Wei Ruo likes very much. Wei Ruo can use them to store the cotton collected in the future.

Wei Ruo can also stockpile some materials transported from the south of the Yangtze River here, and it will be convenient to transport them to the capital from here when necessary.

The large bamboo forest behind Zhuangzi also needs to be used by Wei Ruo. Bamboo has many uses. Not only can it produce bamboo shoots all year round, but the moso bamboo itself can also be used to make various bamboo products.

In addition, as long as the bamboo forest is properly protected, it can also be used to grow many useful herbs, such as ginseng in the forest, and the horse chestnut that likes to grow in the shade.

On the night of buying Zhuangzi, Wei Ruo didn't rush back to Tongshan Temple, and Wei Jin also stayed with her.

There are their people on the mountain, as long as you keep it from Eunuch Gao, it won't be a problem if they don't come back for a night or two.

Wei Ruo and Xiumei set up an iron grill for barbecue in the big courtyard of Zhuangzi.

Xiaobei helped light the fire and add charcoal.

Wei Jin also asked people to find a lot of fresh ingredients. After processing, they were skewered with freshly split bamboo sticks.

Scenes like this are familiar, but the difference is that the courtyard they are in now is several times larger than that of the Wei family, and the surrounding environment is also quieter and quieter.

Not long after, the smell of meat wafted in the courtyard, making people's appetite greatly increased.

Wei Ruo sprinkled each skewer with her secret barbecue seasoning.

Xiaomei ate the kebab happily, and said with a satisfied face: "Miss, the food you cook is too delicious. I was a little uncomfortable when I ate your food for the first time. Now I eat your food. These, if you go to eat elsewhere, you will feel extremely bland.”

Xiumei said: "How do you say that the dishes made by my lady are all based on seasonings. Haven't we also made light food?"

Xiaobei hurriedly explained: "It's my subordinate who said the wrong thing. It's because Miss and Meimei make delicious food! It's because I used to be ignorant, short-sighted, and short-sighted. I mistakenly took pearls for fish eyes, and boars couldn't eat fine meat." bran!"

Xiumei was amused by Xiaobei's series of apologies: "I see that you really went all out to eat a few bites from my lady, and you even called yourself a mountain pig!"

"Compared to Miss and Meimei, I am indeed a mountain boar, very rough!" Xiao Bei smiled smirkly.

"Don't talk about Meimei, Meimei is called by my lady." Xiumei corrected.

Obviously she was called "Miss Xiumei" in the past, but recently, for some reason, she imitated her lady and called her "Meimei". It sounds weird!

"Sorry, Miss Xiumei." Seeing Xiumei's serious face, Xiao Bei quickly changed his words.

"It's not that I don't want you to call, it's just that we are not that familiar." Xiumei added.

"I know, Miss Xiumei, I didn't think carefully." Xiaobei scratched her head in embarrassment, with a shy expression like a little girl.

The four of them ate and chatted, and when the chat got excited, Wei Ruo talked about the matter he had mentioned to Wei Jinyi a few days ago.

"I'm going to tell Meimei about a marriage."

As soon as the words fell, Xiumei and Xiaobei choked at the same time.

"What's wrong with you?" Wei Ruo asked, why did the two of them choke together.

"Little... Miss, what are you talking about? What do you mean kiss... Didn't you agree that I will never marry? You can't drag me into trouble just because you are forced to marry!" Xiumei regained her composure. After that, he asked in surprise.

Xiaobei stared at Wei Ruo and Xiumei with wide eyes, hesitant to speak.

"Don't worry, if you want to marry someone, I won't force you to marry. I'm just talking about it. If you like it, it's fine. If you don't like you, it's okay. Don't think about it when the time comes." Marry, but because I missed it, then I have committed a serious crime." Wei Ruo said.

"No! If I don't say kiss, I will stay with Miss for the rest of my life." Xiumei refused, and then added, "Besides, Miss, you haven't really married yet! You haven't married me yet." How can I get married?"

As she said that, Xiumei glanced at Wei Jinyi: "You and the prince are not considered married. In the future, the prince will marry another, and you will marry another!"

As soon as Xiumei said this, Xiaobei looked at Wei Jinyi nervously.

The moonlight and the firelight of the lantern hanging beside him hit his face, reflecting his as usual cold face, only those eyes slightly revealed some of his hidden emotions.

Xiumei paused, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit weird, especially Xiaobei, why did he feel weird?

Did she say the wrong thing? no?

Originally, the prince and the young lady were not really married. The young lady and the prince made it very clear.

Wei Ruo brought the skewered meat to Xiumei: "Meimei, eat meat."

Xiumei nodded with a dazed expression, then took the meat skewers and began to chew.

Wei Ruo continued: "Don't worry, if you don't want to get married, I will never let you get married and let you stay with me to be a little rich woman for the rest of my life. Look at each other, if you don't even want to look at each other, then just pretend I didn't say it."

Xiumei finally felt relieved: "Miss, I am relieved when you say that. I am determined to be a landowner and rich man by my side for the rest of my life. How can I marry someone casually?"

Wei Ruo sighed slightly in her heart, and didn't know for a while that she had instilled in Xiumei the idea that women should rely on themselves and not on men.
