This is an anti-theft seal, with a 60% anti-theft ratio. Support the genuine version. Thank you, the little fairies, Yuan Jin, but looked at Old Lady Xue. What happened to the Xue family just now must have made the old lady very unhappy, and maybe even, the old lady of Dingguo Duke looked down on the Xue family a little bit. In ancient times, brothers' murmurs were the most taboo, let alone Xue Yuntao's approach to excluding his own people first is simply cold-blooded.

According to the order of teeth, Miss Wei is the oldest, so she stood up and said.

Yuanzhu asked her in a low voice: "Sister Four, I'm curious. This lady of the Wei family has a good family background, why do you come to choose?"

Yuan Jin whispered: "How bad is it?"

The Wei family is indeed many of the Xue family, but the father of the Miss Wei family, Shaanxi governor, will retire in a few years. But the male man in their family is too talented. The younger Wei Heng is talented and intelligent. He passed the imperial examination at the age of sixteen. Unfortunately, he has not entered the officialdom yet. His family is strong, but in fact he is invincible.

This is the difference between an ordinary official family and a lord family. Regardless of whether the descendants of the lord family have a future or not, the title is hereditary. As long as there is no prodigal son, there is no problem that the family will always be prosperous. If the descendants of the ordinary official family do not study hard and fail to perform their careers, the business will be gone if they say they have no.

Wei Heng also came to choose, isn’t it just a matter of the problem? He passed the imperial examination, but can he guarantee that he will definitely pass the Jinshi? How many scholars have passed the Jinshi for twenty years? This is also why Xue Yunhai and others actively accepted the election. With such a shortcut to wealth and honor, who would not be jealous?

After the lady of Wei finished speaking, the old lady nodded with a smile and asked, "Is your grandmother doing well recently?"

The lady of Wei smiled and said, "Thank you, the old lady, for your concern. My grandmother is still in good health. She also said she wanted to wait for you to come to see you when you have time!"

"My family needs to pay homage!" The old lady smiled and asked her to sit down.

Yuan Jin clearly saw that Old Mrs. Xue's face was even worse. But she soon laughed: "Speaking of all, I haven't seen her for a long time. When the incident was so big, our families were unfamiliar, but they had to find some time to drink tea and reminisce about the past."

Although Yuan Jin didn't know the Wei family, he had been familiar with the side departments of the Dingguo Duke's Mansion in the past half month. In fact, among the side departments of the Dingguo Duke's Mansion, the most outstanding young masters of the Wei family were the young masters. After all, other young men did not have the reputation of being a Juren. However, the old lady did not like the Wei family, as if it was because the Wei family had an unhappy relationship with the Dingguo Duke's Mansion.

Now seeing the old lady taking the initiative to talk to the lady of the Wei family, that means that the relationship has eased and there may even be intentions, how could Mrs. Xue not be nervous?

The rest of the people stood up one by one to claim their wealth, and the old lady had heard it with a faint smile.

After hearing it, the old lady closed the tea lid and asked, "I just now have someone named Xue Wenyu, whose brother is it?"

Yuan Jin was quiet for a moment before standing out from all the ladies.

The eyes of all the ladies immediately gathered on her.

"Hello, old lady, Wen Yu is my younger brother." Yuan Jin replied.

The old lady praised: "It's a pity that I am so talented that I am... I seem to be a little lacking in my mind."

Yuan Jin naturally expected this. Even if the old lady was impressed by Wen Yu's talent, she would be afraid of Wen Yu's illness. She said, "It is his luck to be able to get a compliment from the old lady."

The old lady smiled and said, "You girl, really calm down!" Her eyes became more serious, "I can give him a chance to try, but I need you to guarantee you to me that his illness can be cured. If you can guarantee, I will give him a chance. Then I ask you now, may you guarantee it?"

How could Yuan Jin show any hesitation at this time? He immediately responded: "Mrs. You can rest assured as you can, I can guarantee it."

The lady next to her immediately whispered, and it should be that she had already decided to choose one person. When the Wei family saw that her younger brother was selected, she even snorted. The two of them had just formed a bond. She naturally knew that her younger brother Wei Heng had also been selected. After all, Wei Heng had the reputation of a juren, but he had to compete with such a commoner again, which was really unwilling to be convinced.

The other ladies of the Xue family also looked wrong. Isn’t Xue Wenyu a fool? How could he have any talented people...

The old lady smiled and nodded: "Okay! But your brother is still weak in the background. I'm afraid he hasn't entered the school much. I'll go back and tell your father that he should find a capable gentleman to teach him well."

Yuan Jin responded and sat down again.

The old lady said again: "If there are other families who have been selected, I will send someone to send famous brands to the mansion. Don't worry."

After the primary election, the old lady asked the wives from other families to go to have tea or go back to the mansion first. Because Mrs. Xue still had to talk to the old lady, the female relatives of the Xue family remained in the other courtyard. The old lady asked Xue Yuanzhen and Xue Yuanshan's age and temperament again.

Old Mrs. Xue told the old lady about the seal of Chongshan Temple: "...I just walked to the entrance of the temple, but I saw that no one was allowed to enter. I don't know who came here to worship Buddha and even sealed the imperial temple."

The old lady asked the girl to cut some Wang Guoshu pears and distributed them to the girls for a plate, then said: "Who dares to enshrine the imperial temple except for the one who comes back?"

Old Mrs. Xue was a little surprised: "You mean...His Your Highness Jing returned to Shanxi?"

When Yuan Jin heard this name, he raised his head from the pear chewing.

"I came back yesterday. On the day I came back, all the officials kneeled to welcome him. It was such a big battle." The old lady said, "Although King Jing's fief is only Datong, who doesn't regard him as a horse in the entire Shanxi, even Shaanxi and Shandong Peninsula? The Duke of the State dared not slacken at all, and went to welcome him."

When Mrs. Xue heard this, she felt a little moved: "So that's the case, then can't we burn incense today?"

"But it is possible, and I can go in in the afternoon. Your Highness seems to be heading for Datong Mansion."

Yuan Jin lowered his eyelashes.

King Jing Zhu Qian, this unrivaled vassal king, could not do anything to him even when she was the lord of Danyang County.

What's more, she is just an inconspicuous young lady from an ordinary official family now.

After the old lady finished speaking, she asked Yuanzhen and the others with a smile, "Is this pear sweet?" Yuanzhen and others naturally said it was sweet and crispy. The old lady asked the girl to pick up a few more pears and take them to the compartment to eat. She seemed to want to say something separately to Mrs. Xue.

After several ladies were taken to the next room, the girls retreated and waited.

Xue Yuanyu ate a few bites of pears, but she was bored: "I said I was here to burn incense, but I could only be stuffed here, and I would be suffocated to death!"

"Sit down, you can leave after lunch." Xue Yuanzhen advised her.

Xue Yuanyu glanced at Xue Yuanjin: "But how did your stupid brother be selected?"

Xue Yuanjin said lightly: "If Wu Mei said Wen Yu was a fool again, I had to tell the nanny who taught needlework and threading that you did it for you every time the embroiderer."

Xue Yuanyu was threatened by Yuan Jin and snorted and ignored Yuan Jin anymore.

But she was just a person who couldn't sit still, her eyes rolled around and she quietly walked to the screen with her skirt, pretending to be watching the bamboo on the basin high table, but in fact she was talking in eavesdropping. The compartment was separated by a wooden screen, and her words were vaguely heard.

Xue Yuanshan was a little angry when she saw this. Why did this sister act so recklessly! She was about to speak out and scold her. Unexpectedly, Xue Yuanyu looked wrong after hearing a few words, waved to Xue Yuanshan, and whispered: "Come and listen!"

Xue Yuanshan walked to her sister with a calm face and was about to grab her ear, but her sister pressed it on the screen: "What are you talking about inside!"

Yuanzhu was naturally curious when she saw this and pulled Yuan Jin: "Sister Fourth, let's go and listen too!" Without waiting for Yuan Jin to refuse, she pulled her to the screen.

Xue Yuanzhen usually holds her own identity and will never do such things as eavesdropping. She was really curious. What did Xue Yuanyu hear? How could she react like this? She also followed her to the screen.

The voice of the old lady of Dingguo Duke came from inside: "...Your Yuanzhen is pretty good. She is from the legitimate wife, has a gentle personality, and is well-educated. She is not as good as Miss Wei's family."

Old Mrs. Xue's voice seemed to be filled with joy: "Yuanzhen is a gentle and lovely person, and I like it very much on weekdays. But her identity is not enough, and the other ladies are even less qualified."

"Of course, after all, that's also the choice of Marquis Wei Yong's wife." The old lady said, "Marty Wei Yong was the one who could marry the Lord of Danyang County. If he hadn't resisted not to marry, he would not have been delayed until now. My wife and Mrs. Gu were the best friendship. She had already agreed with me that if I, the lady of Dingguo Mansion, would have been satisfied and would have decided to make this marriage with us. After all, if any lady becomes the lady of Dingguo Mansion, this family will be enough."

When the old lady Xue heard this, she said, "If it were the relatives of Duke Dingguo Mansion, she would naturally be considered a match with Marquis Wei Yong! But since Marquis Wei Yong's mansion has such power and family background, why not look for it in the capital?"

The old lady laughed: "Since the death of the Danyang County Lord, the girls who are worthy of him in the capital will not dare to marry him. The poorer family members are not favored by Mrs. Gu. So Mrs. Gu was worried. Seeing that Mrs. Wei Yong was twenty-two years old, he was ready to force him to marry one. Such a good thing, if any woman gets a bargain, she will protect her wealth and glory in this life! Your ladies should hurry up."

The ladies who eavesdropped here were completely shocked by what the two old ladies said.

The old lady of the Duke Dingguo Mansion was actually discussing this with Mrs. Xue!

The future lady of the Duke Dingguo Mansion was going to get engaged to Marquis Wei Yong!

When she sat back to have tea, Xue Yuanyu looked around everyone's expressions and whispered: "You all know who Marquis Wei Yong is, do you?"

Xue Yuanzhu was confused: "Who is he?"

Seeing that Yuanzhu was young, Xue Yuanshan told Xue Yuanzhu: "Marty Wei Yong is not only one of the best noble families in the capital, but also looks handsome. He originally wanted to refer to the Lord of Danyang County - you always know this Lord of Danyang, right?"

Xue Yuanzhu nodded immediately: "I know! Who wouldn't know?"

Xue Yuanshan continued, "Reject the rumors because he refused to marry the county lord and was punished and demoted by the empress dowager Shanxi. How could he bear this tone? He joined forces with His Highness Jing and others to clear the monarch and finally imprison and kill Empress Xiao."

Xue Yuanzhu was startled: "It's so scary. Could anyone choose the lady of Dingguo Mansion in the future and will marry such a person?"

"What's so scary?" Xue Yuanshan said, "Such power and wealth are also known as the most beautiful man in the capital. I think only other girls are eager to him! That is, whoever of us wants to marry, will be selected as the lady of the Duke of Dingguo Mansion."

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but look at Xue Yuanzhen. The old lady mentioned her name just now. She seemed to be still in a trance, holding the teacup tightly.

"Isn't it scary?" Xue Yuanzhu looked at this Marquis Wei Yong and pulled Yuanjin, "Sister Fourth, how about this Marquis Wei Yong?"

The former Danyang County Lord, now the Fourth Lady Xue Xue, was just aside, and after listening to Xue Yuanshan tell the whole story with a faint expression, he said, "...it's really scary."

In order not to marry her, people almost killed her whole family. What else can she say?

Unexpectedly, by accident, she still has to get involved with Gu Heng.

She looked calm, but her hands were clenched under the table. Good fortune made people feel like they were!

However, the noise in the west wing room was too loud, which made Cui come after hearing the news.

"What are you doing with mobilizing troops? No one has made my lunch." Cui looked unhappy. Since she started choosing a prince in this family, she felt that she had never been purified. When she came in, she saw the girl and the woman kneeling all over the ground, she was even more angry. "What are you doing?"

Yuan Jin had a headache and asked someone to show the snake corpse to Cui, and then told Cui about the whole story.

Cui was immediately frightened: "You mean, someone wants to harm Wen Yu?"

"It's the second house." Yuan Jin nodded, "So it's not that I made a big fuss, but that I almost made a life happen, so why not investigate it strictly."

Cui usually just shook his majesty on small matters. When encountering such big matters, he didn't know what to do. He asked his daughter: "Since that's the case, what should we do? I think it's better to take this snake corpse, catch this person and go to your grandmother's place, and ask her to preside over justice!"

Yuan Jin said: "We have no evidence that the second wife does. Even if we go to my grandmother's place, it will be useless. She will only turn big things into small things and small things into small things, so that we will not let such things spread."

Cui said, "No matter what, you can't hold it in your mouth! Today is Wen Yu, what if it's you tomorrow, Jin Yu!"

Yuan Jin finally dissuaded Cui. If you fight for this matter without evidence, you might be bitten by the second house. If you call everyone from the second house over and ask the servant to point out one by one, the second house will definitely not agree, and the old lady will not agree. She will never want to make such a family scandal.

"Of course, I won't let him go easily." Yuan Jin said lightly. "We can't say it, but the servants can say it. As long as they don't put it on the surface, it's not too much to say it."

She asked Cui to stay calm and then went to find Jiang.

When Jiang heard her talk about the poisonous snake, she was also startled and then furious. "The second house is too vicious! It's just a prince. As for such a ruthless move!"

"That's true." Yuan Jin said, "I want to know that since the third aunt has eyeliners in the second room, who are these eyeliners around?"

Jiang looked at Yuan Jin in surprise.

And Yuan Jin just smiled.

After a day passed, at night, the incident of Xue Wenyu being almost bitten by a poisonous snake had spread throughout the Xue Mansion. The servants of the fourth room naturally all discussed it as the second room. There were rumors that even Cui scolded the second room for words such as "ungrateful, cold-blooded and ruthless."

Old Mrs. Xue asked Shen to ask questions.
