Chapter 140: Night talk

Song Li didn't plan to make things difficult for Xi Fuwei in the marriage.
Because it can't be paid.
Shen Qianlan has clearly expressed his intention to marry his righteous daughter. According to the difference between the identities of the two parties, it can be seen that it is not an ordinary favorite. Let alone how to say it in the future, at least it is sincere for now.
Song Li himself had come here since he was a teenager. He knew that men and women at this age were obsessed with feelings. Not to mention his uncle like him, he was the father who was stealing Lan. At the moment, he was going to stop him, father and son. To give birth to gaps.
But why bother?
But he only recognized Xi Fuwei as a righteous daughter on the front foot, which also hinted that she became the righteous father-daughter. The girl came to propose the marriage in person, which means she came back. Song Li felt a little unhappy.
So I thought about it a long time ago and I want to beat it.
So that this girl understands that she just doesn't want to make trouble with Shen's family for her, not that she dare not make trouble with Shen's family.
Seeing Xi Fuwei at this moment, he made it through, and offered to make a good relationship with Song Jianiang, Song Li gave it up after thinking about it.
In fact, he himself didn't have much hostility towards Xi Fuwei, and he even had a little appreciation.
But as a father who loves his daughter, it is difficult not to be affected by his daughter's attitude.
"I heard that there was something wrong with the jail of Jining Health Institute?" After the matter was revealed for the time being, Song Li asked about the business, "Are you there at the time?"
"It was the work of Jianwen's remnants." Xi Fuwei nodded, "They confessed personally and also kidnapped Zou Yi'ang, the only son of the Zou family. The daughter met on the way here."
Song Li said with a "huh" that these remnants are simply too arrogant: "If your Majesty has been busy shoveling the disease for the past two years, there is no room for them to jump!"
"If it's just the Zou family and the Jining Health Center, or even the attack on our father and daughter, it will be limited to this corner of Shandong." Xi Fuwei said with an expression of hesitation, "But my daughter thinks, I am afraid it is not so. simple."
Song Li raised her eyebrows and motioned to her to be more careful.
"Didn't three guards died on the way here?" Xi Fuwei said, "Except for the last one who was drowned, the previous two were shots. Because of the limited conditions at the time, the accompanying school lieutenant could only do a simple inspection. , Muttered a sentence that the blood had clotted too quickly. My daughter remembered that she had mentioned in the book she read in Youqing’s study earlier that in the south, in Yunnan, there is a poisonous tree called'seeing blood seals the throat'. As the name suggests, the tree has the toxicity of seeing blood in the throat. If it is poisoned, the symptoms are very similar to those in which the two guards were killed."
When Song Li heard the word "Yunnan", his eyebrows frowned, and his expression quickly became grim: "What do you want to say?"
"Daughter thinks that Jianwen's remnants may want to plant His Royal Highness Han." Xi Fuwei said slowly, "to instigate discord between the heavens."
"...Two days ago, I sent a letter for my father to the Jining Health Institute to ask Shen Qianlan to come to Wenshui Bank to investigate the case." Song Li looked a little uncertain when he heard this, and said after a while, "Do you know what's the matter?" "
Xi Fuwei shook his head: "I asked the steward on the road, but I was busy on the road at the time and didn't elaborate, only that it seemed to have almost affected Kaihe, which shocked Dad?"
"The internal information of this case is too complicated. The grievances of the people in the countryside will not talk to you for the father, so as not to stain your ears." Song Li said slowly, "In simple terms, it was thought that it was taken by someone at first. It was poisonous, and it was later discovered that it was attacked by the miasma gas!"
Xi Fuwei was truly surprised: "The miasma gas?! Isn't this prevalent in the south? Not to mention that the climate has not completely turned to warm now... My daughter, look at the long wind on the Wenshui River, where will the miasma gas gather! "
"Of course someone is doing a ghost." Song Li sneered and said, "After Shen Pilan found out the truth, he also told the old man that he suspected that someone was calculating His Royal Highness...I was thinking about who was so bold and combined with Jiningwei. All you have seen along the way, it must be Jianwen's remnant!"
Xi Fuwei nodded indignantly.
The father and daughter talked about this topic for a long time. The steward came in and asked for instructions on how to arrange the dinner before it came to an end. Song Li said that the father and daughter had not seen each other for many days and planned to accompany her daughter to dinner, so Bai Ying and Gu Gonggong were invited to take care of themselves. .
Xi Fuwei guessed that he had something to say to herself alone.
Sure enough, after the meal, the servant brought tea and Song Li began to bring the topic to Yingtian Palace.
He actually gave her a good introduction to the situation of the Shen family.
The Shen family is not very prominent in Yingtianfu nobleman, not that their family has no power, but the family's low-key.
"Actually, it's not that there are no young people who are jumping off." Song Li said leisurely, holding the tea bowl, "but he is tightly managed, and he jumps on the street for a little bit, causing two things, and then sending Zhuangzi up to grind. The old lady’s wife’s help in pleading is not good...Shen Jiahou is very assertive on this point, and the old lady can’t scare him if he goes on a hunger strike."
Xi Fuwei didn't know what he meant by telling herself these things, and said cautiously: "Sounds very strict."
"So you have good luck." Song Lisuan glanced at her and said slowly, "Other Hou Men will not allow you to be a regular wife, but the Shen family...their Master Hou is very arrogant and feels that it is better to get married. , Is not as good as your own children. So the most important thing is the excellence of your own children and the virtuousness of your daughter-in-law. As for the family background, being a good family is the best for nature, but it is not impossible to negotiate. Otherwise, you will not be able to raise someone willing to marry you. Sinking Blue."
"Thank you daddy for the point." Xi Fuwei nodded.
"After you enter the door, you don't have to think about who pleases. Your future mother-in-law, your mother-in-law's mother-in-law, can't be a family at home. The real masters are your future father-in-law, uncle, and Chen Pilan." Song Li said, "As for whether there will be other principals in the future, it depends on the younger brothers under Chen Qianlan who grow up and lose their spirits... As long as you coax Chen Qianlan and don't do decent things, your father-in-law is certain. I'm too lazy to look for trouble. Some tricks of other female relatives, Jia Niang can't handle them, but you must be fine."
Xi Fuwei said: "Daughter is dull, she will have to ask her father for shelter at that time."
Song Li didn't answer this, but said, "Since you are already my daughter, it's unreasonable that your nephew has been living in someone else's house. Let's take it to Yingtian Palace and let your mother and brother take care of it."
Seeing her face changed slightly, she sighed, "Are you still afraid that if I take him as a hostage? I don't want to think that as long as you are Mrs. Shen Jiashao, why do our Song family have to turn your face with you? What can you get if you grow up in the countryside? Good training? It’s hard for you to want to take him to Shen’s house? It’s not impossible, but I would advise you: Originally it was a high-marry, and then bring a tow oil bottle. You don’t care if you want to steal the blue. Your father-in-law may not care, you Those future mother-in-laws and little aunts will have opinions!"
"They won't think that there is no one in your house and have to take your underage nephew with you. They will only think that you deliberately take advantage of Shen's house."
"Wait for you to give birth to sons and daughters for Shen Pilan, stand firm in Shen's house, and have a foundation, and then it will not be too late to raise your nephew by yourself...Why don't you even have the confidence to win Sinkilan for so many years?"
Xi Fuwei groaned. After a while, she raised her eyes and said, "But with Daddy's decision, Daddy Lao is taking care of Jiaoer."
Although he knew that Song Li did this, he planned to hold Xi Jiao as a hostage, but as he said, as long as he stood firm in the Shen family, the hostage would become a medium for strengthening ties and friendship between Xi Fuwei and the Song family.
After all, she was adopted as a righteous daughter by the Song family at this age, and the two sides simply couldn't talk about the basis of relationship.
Who knew that after she married into the Shen family as the righteous daughter of the Song family, once she stood firm, or the Song family would fail in the future, or the Shen family would rise by virtue of the Donggong relationship, would she fight against the Song family?
Song Li is also getting older, and his descendants can't say how unworthy they are, but so far, it seems that there is no one who can surpass him.
Tan Pilan is still young.
He always thinks about the long-term.
At this moment, telling Xi Fuwei the inside story of the Shen family and offering to help raise Xi Jiao, showing goodness is also a control.
Xi Fuwei doesn't like being under control, but the real situation makes her nod: she is not Song Jianiang, she has a father from the Ministry of Industry Shangshu, and she is the opposite of the thief of Lan. If you pass the door, you will be easily caught by the Shen family. Accepted, because she was originally from the class of the Shen family.
Gao Jia is easy to be treated differently, and if you bring Xi Jiao with you, let alone whether it will affect her status in the Shen family, Xi Jiao's life in the Shen family will not be good.
And to put it in a bad way, Xi Jiao's aunt depends on her to live till now.
If she was down, Xi Jiao would only be worse.
She is fine, even if Xi Jiao is not in front of her, he may not be treated well.
Anyway, during this period of time, he has been fostering his nephew with Shen Qilan's hands, Xi Fuwei doesn't care about being separated from this nephew for a few years now.
Song Li wants to see the long-term, so why not?
After reaching an agreement on this matter, Song Li's attitude towards her was cordial a few times, and he also told a lot about Yingtianfu's nobles, the taboos and preferences of each family, etc.: "Take a note of these, and you will go later. After Ying Tianfu, ask your mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and others to give you detailed explanations, so as not to have any problems in the relationship after passing the door."
Xi Fuwei thanked him sincerely for this.
Next, she banged on the opening of the river. After all, this Huitonghe could be regarded as completely changing the fate of the Xi family...It was not that the court was about to open the river, and Xi Zongwang might not be angry to death because of the collapse of Luofengpo’s pavement. .
However, this matter is not to blame the court.
Because as long as Wen Jia wants to regret the marriage, there are other calculations without Luo Fengpo.
According to the comparison of the two powers in Dongchang Mansion, the Xi family has no power to fight back.
So Xi Fuwei asked about Kaihe at the moment, half remembering her father and brother and half reminiscing about her running around the past few months.
Isn't she involved in this project that is destined to remain in history?
Who knew this question, but talked to Song Li until late at night... Gein Song Li was only casually perfunctory, but found that this righteous girl seemed very knowledgeable, surrounding the canal, especially the river, almost all he knew she was Knowing that Tan Xing was gradually touched, but it was out of control.
"Before I stayed in Youqing study." To Song Li's question after calming down, Xi Fuwei explained, "At that time, to be lazy, he memorized all the books in his study, so he didn't have to search for anything he wanted. Can tell him."
Song Li's reaction was similar to that of Chen Pilan, surprised and regretful: "It's a pity, not a man."
After a pause, he said, "No wonder Chen Thilan will fancy you."
With their identities like this, the beauties have seen a lot of them. They are fat and thin, beautiful in the north and south, and even exotic... Except for those dudes with weak willpower and abandoned by their families, they are mostly indifferent.
It's not that I'm completely pure-hearted, but wanting to confuse them with pure beauty is a dream.
After all, things that are readily available are hard to cherish. A group of beauties are waiting for a wink. How can one expect them to confess to their ancestors when they see a colored one?
However, the outstanding talents and overflowing talents have been rare throughout the ages.
Because women could not participate in the imperial examinations, there have been fewer talented women recorded since ancient times, and even fewer people are full of poems and books.
When Song Li was young, he met Xi Fuwei who was born in a good family with both talents and appearance, so he had to pay more attention to it.
Seeing Xi Fuwei smile at this moment, she sighed somewhat self-consciously, and said, "I knew I had let Jia Niang study hard."
But knowing this is useless in my heart, reading also speaks of talent.
Without talent, even if the Four Books and Five Classics are well-versed, he is just a nerd, and he won't have the calm and self-confidence of poems and books.
Just thinking of what Xi Fuwei said just now, the relationship between her own daughter and Shen Thilan was not enough.
He sighed and said with a sense of excitement: "It's getting late. If we continue to talk, I'm afraid it will be controversial. You can go back. Let's talk later."
Xi Fuwei retired with him and went back to the house where she was living.
When I entered, I was shocked: "Why are you here?!"
