Chapter 125 Useless
Chapter 125: Useless
In the Xiao Mansion, Mrs. Xiao is holding a bunch of portraits to choose a wife for her eldest son, Xiao Yulin. These portraits are all carefully selected young ladies from various families who are well-matched by her. They are beautiful, gentle, naughty, and cute.
, virtuous, dignified, etc. There must be one that my son likes. He is 23 this year and is considered an older man among men. The elders and younger ones are in order. If he does not get married, what will happen to his younger brothers and sisters?
?
Xiao Yulin looked at those portraits with obvious absent-mindedness, and he couldn't help but recall the helpless woman with pear blossoms and rain in her mind.
"How's it going, son?" Mrs. Xiao looked at her son holding a portrait and lowering his head and giggling. She was immediately elated. She picked up the painting in her son's hand and took a look. It was a gentle beauty. She immediately understood that her son liked this one.
"Master, take a look. This is what our son chose." Mrs. Xiao walked slowly to Doctor Xiao with the portrait in hand to discuss it.
"Very good. Miss Zhou is well-educated, gentle and virtuous, which is more than enough for Lin'er." Dr. Xiao nodded happily. His son had so many choices to choose from that he actually chose the prospective daughter-in-law in their hearts.
"Son, if you really like her, I will propose marriage to you right now." Mrs. Xiao smiled and patted her son's shoulder.
Only then did Xiao Yulin react. Seeing his parents looking at him with joyful expressions, he had no idea what was going on and asked, "Mom, what's wrong? You're so happy."
Mrs. Xiao looked at her son, who had a red face and bright eyebrows. They were all here before. If there was anything he didn't understand, she hurriedly smiled and said: "I like it if I like it. If there is anything to be embarrassed about, I will tell you right now."
If you go, my son will definitely get what he wants."
Xiao Yulin was confused when he heard this: "What did mom say? The kid doesn't understand?"
Mrs. Xiao handed the portrait to Xiao Yulin and teased: "Your favorite Miss Zhou, your parents are also very satisfied."
Xiao Yulin was stunned, his expression suddenly changed, he pushed away the portrait and said displeased: "Who said that my son likes Miss Zhou's family?"
Mrs. Xiao was stunned: "If you don't like it, why are you holding on to it?"
Xiao Yulin's face turned dark and suddenly turned red: "My son already has a girl he likes, but it's not this young lady from the Zhou family."
Doctor Xiao was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "I wonder what the name of the girl my son likes is and where she lives?"
Xiao Yulin's face turned redder. He was about to answer, but found that he knew nothing about her. He was secretly annoyed that he was useless. Why did he run away in a hurry without asking clearly? He stammered for a long time and said: "Son, I don't know. I just
I know she is from the Crown Prince's house."
Doctor Xiao was stunned. He was actually from the prince's house. Looking at his son's confused expression, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. This stupid son actually fell in love with a girl without knowing anything. There were thousands of guests in the prince's house. What were they going to do?
Find it?
Xiao Yulin looked at his father and said extremely seriously: "Although she is just a slave, she is kind-hearted, and..."
"And what?" Mrs. Xiao rarely looked at her son's awkward and shy look, and asked curiously. The Xiao family was originally from a farmer's family, and they did not have high requirements for family status. As long as their son liked him and had good conduct, that would be enough.
"She also blocked a slap for her son, and she is also studying medicine." Xiao Yulin continued: "My son promised her that he would marry her and asked dad to help his son."
Doctor Xiao narrowed his eyes and nodded. Of course he believed in his son's vision, and this son was the most honest among his children. He couldn't help but ask: "Do you really like it?"
Xiao Yulin nodded affirmatively: "I like it."
Mrs. Xiao was very happy and hurriedly urged: "It's rare that my son likes it. Old man, just give it a try."
Doctor Xiao glanced at his blushing son and patted his sleeves: "Let's go." For the sake of his son, he had to go to the prince's house to sell his old face, and he also took the opportunity to see what his son's favorite girl was.
What does it look like? Something that can make his usually calm and self-possessed son so distracted.
Ye Kexin was refining medicine in the pharmacy at this time. After a period of exercise, his father's legs could barely stand up. Qiu said that he was recovering well, and he needed some pills to help him at this time. My grandfather's body was still strong, and he had left a lot of pain when he was young.
The old injuries from her wounds also recurred, and her legs began to hurt every night. Grandma also caught wind and cold and coughed non-stop all day long. Ye Kexin sighed, she still had to go back tomorrow.
"Young Madam." Zhuo Wu's voice sounded.
Ye Kexin wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Come in."
Zhuo Wu was also unambiguous and reported the news of the past few days to Ye Kexin word for word.
The rumor that Dong Shu tortured people to death in a brothel was spread from ten to ten, and within a day almost everyone in the capital knew about it. Even the seventh prince was scolded by the emperor and became more and more unpopular.
.
The Wang family heard that the magnanimous people did not break off the engagement. Even if they wanted to, the emperor would not allow it. She was just a brothel girl and could not affect his overall situation. Shangguan Yujin has not been able to open shops in various places according to the order. The palace consumes a lot of money and the war is tight.
The national treasury is almost unable to make ends meet. The Valley of Divine Doctors has also lost its support and is unable to protect itself. There is no spare capacity to serve the royal family.
None of the official families are rich, and they all point to the royal family to issue silver coins, so there is no balance to hand over to the treasury. Although the Wang family is small now, it has not been affected at least. Even though the fat is small, it is still meat. They urgently need to control the entire Wang family, so no matter what
It is impossible to break off the engagement. Even if the engagement is broken off, the Wang family will have to hand over all their wealth.
The Wang family knew it well, but they did not swallow their anger. In addition, Wang Jingya's ridicule and abuse made the Dong family intolerable, so they vented their anger on Dong Shu, who had failed to achieve anything but failed. Dong Shu was banned, and the more he was banned, the more he felt in his heart.
The devil could not be suppressed more and more. He could not help but commit crimes against the wind, and was caught when he oppressed the women of his parents' family. Even the past evil deeds of bullying men and women, and disregarding human lives were all dug out. The evidence was conclusive, and the emperor was furious, even if
Even though the Seventh Prince came forward, he couldn't save it.
Everything must be done in moderation. The Wang family could not bear the humiliation and decided to break off the engagement. The emperor had a severe headache, but had no reason to refuse, so he could only withdraw the imperial edict. However, it was impossible for the Wang family to escape unscathed. The Wang family was also very aware of current affairs and donated money.
Most of the family property filled the national treasury, and everyone was happy for a while, except for the notorious Dong family and Dong Shu, who was already in prison.
Ye Ke nodded with satisfaction, and couldn't help but admire her third brother's admiration. She just gave a general idea, and his third brother dug up all the dirty things that his ancestors had done for eighteen generations. This is called a master, a master.
If you don't take action, you will never be able to recover. However, God is watching, even if there is no third brother, they will not end well.
"Where's Fourth Brother?" Ye Kexin asked as she packed the pills.
Zhuo Wu couldn't help but shudder when he mentioned Ye Qingting. The young lady was so ruthless. The fourth young master had to accompany him throughout the whole process of poaching the Dong family. Even the incidents between Dong Shu and the woman were not avoided. The fourth young master had to start all over again.
At the end of the story, the fourth young master was tortured until he almost lost his human form. Especially when he learned that Dong Shu was so anxious that he wanted to use that dirty medicine on Miss Wang to force Miss Wang to submit, the look in his eyes that wanted to eat people and regret it was really shocking.
One can't help but sympathize.
The only good thing is that Miss Wang has no interest in Dong Shu from the beginning to the end. No matter how he behaves and pleases him, his sweet words cannot move Wang Jingya's heart. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Miss Wang has never let go of the Fourth Young Master. It is a pity that the young lady
The Fourth Young Master was not given a chance to perform meritorious service at all, so he watched Miss Wang being kidnapped, drugged, and the drug took effect, and she was almost given to Dong Shu... If it hadn't been for the critical moment, the young lady showed mercy and allowed Han Zhe to relieve the Fourth Young Master.
The young master's acupuncture points, Miss Wang may...but the final result is still good, at least it can be regarded as a success for the fourth young master and Miss Wang.
Zhuo Wu sighed and said: "The Miss Wang family has not been able to forgive the Fourth Young Master so far, saying that they have no relationship for a long time and have severed their grudges. The Fourth Young Master knows that he is wrong and does not dare to pester him anymore. He drinks to relieve his sorrows all day long and loses weight quickly.
Out of phase."
Ye Kexin snorted coldly: "It's useless."
Zhuo Wu couldn't help but take a step back. The young lady's expression was really terrifying. Any man who had gone through such a thing would probably be disabled if not dead. It was really not easy for the Fourth Young Master to be alive. This mentality and
