The powerful minister favors the small farmer's wife alone

Chapter 69

Quickly throwing this idea out of her head, Su Xiaoye would not pretend to be sentimental to think that such a handsome and handsome nobleman would fall in love with her just because of a few days of getting along with her.

But being followed too closely, Su Xiaoye's heart trembled, and she always felt that Xiao Changan seemed to have something to say to herself.Whether this is said or not, it makes people feel hairy.

So, Su Xiaoye was the first to break the embarrassing calm, and asked with a smile, "Why do you want to climb the mountain today, sir?"

Naturally, Xiao Chang'an couldn't tell. He wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Su Xiaoye. The addition of Su Xiaocao and Su Lan made what he originally thought to be active become passive.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Stand tall and see far away. I want to climb higher and look at the terrain here."

Su Xiaoye suddenly realized that she really had official duties, not just to cling to others as she thought.

"Since your lord has something to do, you can go there yourself. My brother and I are used to climbing this mountain, so there will be no danger."

Xiao Changan shook his head, "I promised Aunt Xu that I would bring you back safely, and I will not break my promise."

Su Xiaoye had no choice but to let him continue to follow.

When we got to the mountain, I thought there would be fewer people, but I didn't expect that there were many people on the mountain carrying baskets on their backs, digging among the rocks and trees, Su Xiaocao asked around, and these people had heard about it. A few days ago, their family dug medicinal materials on the mountain and sold them for more than a tael of silver, and they all came to the mountain to try their luck.

Among them, I also saw the family of Su Boss and Su Lao Er.Seeing that Chen Ping and Lu Feng were arguing over who discovered the kudzu first, Su Xiaocao laughed mercilessly: "Sister, do you think they look like fighting cocks?"

The laughter made the two women regain their composure, Qi Qi gave Su Xiaocao a look and then ignored each other, obviously they don't want to be watched by the third family if they make trouble.

If they hadn't seen Xiao Changan following Su Xiaoye, they would have wanted to take their anger out on Su Xiaoye and the others.

However, it is one thing to know that this adult takes good care of the third family's family, but it is another thing to see him take the children of the third family up the mountain with his own eyes.

Especially when he saw his protector standing behind Su Xiaoye, the sourness in his heart couldn't be suppressed. When Su Xiaoye and the others walked away, the two who had just fought like cockfights got together again, Chen Ping said : "Sister and sister, you said that Xiao Yezi from the third family's family is so close to the adults, so it's not because the adults have fallen in love with her and wants to marry her? If that's the case, will our family have to follow suit in the future?"

Lu Feng curled her lips, "What good things do you want? What is your status? Will you marry a country girl? I think the most you want is a warm bed. I heard that rich families in the city have wives and concubines in groups, like her. With Su Xiaoye's status, I'm afraid she's not even a concubine. At most, she'll be a roommate, warming the master's bed at night, and serving the mistress like a maid during the day. If you want to scold, you can scold."

Chen Ping was speechless, "Is what you said true?"

"Is there a fake? I have a distant cousin. In her village, there was a girl who went to a rich family to be a maid. She was caught by the master, and she became a housemate without showing her face. The wife of that family is jealous. Not to mention that she couldn't even get close to the master, she did all the dirty work, and was beaten twice in three days, and finally forced to jump into the well, and the master gave five taels of silver to settle the matter."

Chen Ping clicked her tongue repeatedly, but gloated and said: "It's really miserable! I think the adults are already twenty, right? With his status, it's impossible for him to be unmarried. Su Xiaoye will be beaten and scolded if he passes through the door. Only their family It’s still considered a beautiful thing, which is almost the same as selling a girl.”

"That's right. Her mother didn't agree with the marriage we were looking for at the beginning. I think she wanted to sell the girl for a high price. It's all for sale anyway. Who thinks it's too much money."
