A Farmer's Lady's Guide to Getting Rich

Chapter 270
When Changning first arrived in Shuoyang City, he would indeed go out every day because he was curious!When you arrive in a new place, you always want to see more.

However, soon the Tudou business was over, and the firearms business was nervously put on the agenda, so she had no time to go out for a stroll.Stay in the general's mansion every day, and study the planning and construction of the weapons research center with Xiao Qian.

According to the idea, they wanted to expand the original firecracker workshop into a weapon research center, specializing in research, development, production, testing and storage of firearms.

In view of the overwhelming power of firearms, the research and development of this thing must not be leaked, and the construction process will inevitably require the entry and exit of craftsmen, materials, and soldiers.With so many people coming and going, it's hard not to be noticed.

Therefore, they must find a very reasonable reason to cover up the true nature of weapons research.

After much deliberation, the two had no good ideas at first, but by chance, Chang Ning heard that there was a small hot spring next to the firecracker workshop, and immediately thought of an idea.

Soon, a news spread from the General's Mansion; Xiao Qian loved Princess Ayilian deeply, and in order to win her favor, he decided to build a hot spring palace for her in the mountains near Shuoyang City.

After the news spread, everyone in Shuoyang City believed it.Because these days, they have seen everything; that Princess Ailian and Xiao Qian go in and out together, holding hands everywhere, the two are so in love that they are almost reluctant to part for a moment.

Xiao Gongzi was not close to women at all before, and he didn't even have a maid around him, but now he is being dragged around the streets by Princess Ayilian, and even went to the fields to cultivate farmers...!
If she is so loved, let alone Xiao Qian build a hot spring palace for her, even if she builds a Tongtian Pagoda for her to go to the sky to pick stars, the common people will believe it!
When the news reached Qi Shaonan's ears, Qi Shaonan couldn't sit still again.

He has been to the General's Mansion twice these days, but he did not see Xiao Qian, and even the gift was returned.The more the other party asked him to wait, the more disturbed he felt.

I'm afraid that the longer the other party waits, the more serious the settlement will be.

Moreover, at the border checkpoint, several batches of gemstones from the Qi family have been stuck, and they cannot be transported into Dayu at all.For the benefit of the family, Qi Shaonan had no choice but to shamelessly visit the door for the third time to plead guilty.

"It's only three things, don't refuse anymore, after all, he is not a bad-hearted man, and the marriage contract was made by the elders, so you can't blame him!" Hearing that Qi Shaonan is coming again, Chang Ning persuaded Xiao Qian like this.

"Okay! I'll go to see him today, and collect some good things by the way." Xiao Qian was not unreasonable, so he went immediately.

Seeing the jadeite bracelet and mutton jade brought by Qi Shaonan, he took a look in his hand and still liked it, but——

Xiao Qian suddenly remembered that Chang Ning is a jewelry maker, and he loves all kinds of gemstones the most!The Qi family is in the jewelry business, and there are many gems, but they didn't give away any of them?
He straightened his face immediately, pretending to be displeased and said: "Master, I heard that your Qi family has a gemstone mine in Ximan, why did you only send green jade and white jade, I don't care."

Qi Shaonan was startled, and immediately bowed his head and explained: "My lord, although there are many colored treasures, it is difficult to produce high-quality goods, and Princess Ayilian has a noble status, so she has seen many colored treasures, so the Qi family dare not show clumsiness. The high-quality jade bracelet from Burma is the most precious and rare Longyang species among jadeites. It is difficult to find a pair in decades. The whole body is perfect and flawless. Only such a perfect thing is worthy of the pure and pure princess. "

"Slick tongue, you can say good things now, how can you say such bad things in front of her?"

Xiao Qian still remembered Qi Shaonan's scolding of Changning, so he snorted coldly and said deliberately: "Seeing that you are not young anymore, you are a manly man, why are you so small, like a woman."

"I'm sorry, my lord, the villain was indeed too impulsive before, and I didn't cultivate enough." Seeing Xiao Qian's intentional criticism, Qi Shaonan immediately turned pale and knelt down on one knee.

"Forget it, seeing that you know your mistakes and can correct them, you are still a man! I don't care too much about you!"

Xiao Qian doesn't usually like to oppress people like this, besides, he is sent with heavy gifts, and his money is not blown by strong winds, and he can't be greedy... So he waved Qi Shaonan to get up, and was about to let him go, when suddenly he Thinking of something, he asked again: "I heard you have a marriage contract?"

Qi Shaonan didn't understand why Xiao Qian suddenly asked about his personal affairs, he was stunned for a moment before replying: "Yes!"

"Then when will you get married? Based on the conditions of your Qi family, the other party must be a lady of everyone, right?"

While saying these words, Xiao Qian felt uncomfortable.

"The date of the marriage has not yet been decided, because this marriage was decided by the elders. Because of the age, the elders have passed away. Therefore, the whereabouts of the fiancée have not been found yet." Qi Shaonan saw Xiao Qian's expression was not good, he didn't know what he meant, just Can honestly answer truthfully.

"Since you can't find them all, what kind of marriage contract is it? I see that you are not too young, so go home and get married! I heard that there is a cousin in your family who is very infatuated with you, so don't stick to an impossible one." The marriage contract has delayed your cousin's youth."

Xiao Qian said what he wanted and said in a very casual tone.

Uh--

Could it be that Ai Lian said something in front of Young Master Xiao?
Qi Shaonan was astonished, and suddenly remembered that when Ailian was still in Changning, someone stripped his clothes, found the token of engagement, and mentioned the matter of his cousin. He might have misunderstood that he had an affair with his cousin.

He had a marriage contract, but had an affair with his cousin before marriage, which was a serious moral issue.

In fact, he and his cousin Jiang Tian'er really have nothing. He knows that his cousin likes him, but because he has a marriage contract, he has never responded. At this stage, he just treats his cousin as his own sister.

Seeing that Xiao Qian also mentioned his cousin today, Qi Shaonan didn't dare to hesitate, and quickly explained: "My lord misunderstood, the villain and my cousin are only relatives, and we grew up together since we were young, so we have more family affection, nothing else really matters. .”

Qi Shaonan actually denied the matter of his cousin, which means that he still has to abide by the marriage contract and wants to marry Changning?
Hearing this, Xiao Qian immediately became angry, and said angrily, "Haha! Qi Shaonan, if you are a man, you should go back and marry your cousin. Don't explain things in front of the master. The master has no patience to pay attention to your private affairs."

"My lord, the marriage contract of the villain was made by the elders, how can I easily abandon it?"

Qi Shaonan became more and more incomprehensible. Seeing Xiao Qian's serious tone, he hastily emphasized again: "The villain's elders have already written a marriage letter to the woman. If she abandons her today and marry someone else, and her fiancée comes to the door someday, how will the villain deal with her?" ? And my Qi family is so treacherous, what face will I stand in the world in the future?"

"Damn, marry whoever you like, what a big deal! I don't believe it, with the current power of your Qi family, you won't be able to handle a marriage well?"

The more Xiao Qian heard it, the angrier he became, he raised his hand and patted the table, and said loudly: "Could it be that you are determined not to call off the engagement, because you fell in love with that fiancée you haven't met?"
