Chapter 342
"Is that the young master of the Xing family?"

Su Yun couldn't help frowning after hearing Xie's words.

She knows this Xing family, it is the family of Xungui.His ancestor followed Taizu to fight on the battlefield, made great military exploits, and was named Cheng Guogong.His descendants also relied on the shade and received some blessings.

Although the ancestors have done their best, if the descendants are useless, no matter how great the contribution is, there will be a day when it will be compromised.When the previous generation of the Xing family was in charge of the family, the family business was already in decline, leaving only some frivolous things for decoration.

And at this time, the war between the Qing Kingdom and the Liang Kingdom also started. Young Lord Xing, who did not dare to lose his family fortune, joined the army at this time. Because of his repeated military exploits, he was made a marquis by the late emperor.

However, the price paid for this title was too great.

Young Master Xing was not weak when he entered the battlefield, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, he fought this battle for several years, although he made many achievements in battle, he also suffered injuries all over his body. Physical reasons left the battlefield.

Because of this physical problem, Lord Xing has not married a wife so far.There is a girl from a small family who is willing to marry, but this person has reached a certain status, if he does not pay attention to family status, even if the young master is willing, the family members will not agree.

And this young master also became very irritable due to his physical problems, and word spread over time.

This is good, her health is not good, her temper is still bad, even if she has some status, no girl is willing to marry her.Unless the young master is willing to find a daughter from an ordinary family as his wife, families with a little bit of background are unwilling to let their daughters marry.

Don't talk about being angry, if the young master accidentally belches one day, isn't the daughter going to be a widow?Although Guochao does not encourage women to be widows, it is always a bad thing to say, as long as it does not blacken their conscience, which parent would let their daughter suffer this crime?
Originally, Su Yun knew so much, but it was only for the sake of her husband's career.

As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles!

Su Yun has inquired about all the people with status in this city, even merchants, for the convenience of holding these people in their hands in the future and earning money to build Youzhou.

But she would never have thought that this young master had taken a fancy to her second sister. This is such a troublesome matter!

"Go and call Huan'er."

"Yes, ma'am."

After a while, Huan'er came over, "Sister-in-law, did you call me?"

"Huan'er, my sister-in-law asks you, have you ever been in contact with Lord Xing?"

Lu Huan'er looked puzzled, and said: "Sister-in-law, I don't even know what Lord Xing looks like. I only know his housekeeper, who comes here every day and buys something every time, but I don't know how many days He suddenly went crazy, and pestered me, asking me to distribute some soap to him, saying that his young master likes this soap, if he doesn't give some back, he won't be able to do business."

Lu Huan'er paused, with a trace of anger on his face, "This Butler Xing is really a mess, I have told him several times that it will take time to make this soap, let him come back later. But he just As if I didn’t hear it, I don’t know if he came to me on purpose to make me unlucky…”

Su Yun and Mrs. Xie looked at each other and said, "Have you really never seen this young master?"

Lu Huan'er shook his head, a strange expression appeared on his face, "Sister-in-law, what's the matter with you and Aunt Xie today? Why are you saying something I don't understand?"

Su Yun sighed slightly, looked at the question marks on Huan'er's face, and thought to himself: "I don't feel at ease even if I go to the draft with such a temperament!"

Wei Wei added another sentence, "I can't rest assured when I go to the big family of the Hou family. I don't even know that this silly girl is attracted by others."

Su Yun smiled slightly, and said: "It's nothing, I just want to ask you, Housekeeper Xing, why you always come to bother me, my sister-in-law thinks it's a bit strange."

"you do not say!"

As soon as Lu Huaner heard what Su Yun said, he immediately complained, "That old man is so weird, he even asked me when I was born. He also asked me what I usually like to do and what I like to eat. What a shame. It's weird, it's like a daughter-in-law."

"Isn't it just looking for someone's wife?"

Su Yun and Mrs. Xie answered silently in their hearts, and they looked at each other, seeing a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Then it's all right. A visitor is a guest. It's true that harmony makes money. We have to be patient when we open the door for business."

Su Yun chatted a few words casually, and after sending Huan'er away, he said to Mrs. Xie: "Aunt Xie, go to the store and ask the guys to find clues to see if this young master has been to the store. Huan'er has been in the store all the time, it is impossible to go out, this young master suddenly behaves like this, then he must have been in the store, and the two of them have had contact. It's just that Huan'er, a silly girl, doesn't know."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Keep quiet, don't let Huan'er know."

"Don't worry about this old slave, let's go now."

Seeing Mrs. Xie go away, Su Yun pondered for a while, only to feel a little restless in his heart.

To be honest, now Lu Shi's Youzhou business is slowly getting on the right track, the only difference is that those few unsightly things have not been cleaned up, but basically, he already has a little bit of his own strength in this Youzhou. After all the recruit training is over, with [-] elite soldiers, he is definitely the one and only emperor in Youzhou. After all, he can sweep all kinds of "villains" and stubborn forces in Youzhou.

And as Lu Shi's foundation in Youzhou gradually stabilized, something that caused Su Yun a headache also came.

The first headache is this year's draft.

The emperor has reached the age to get married. Although the Taizu once set a rule that only Pingmen women can be selected to fill the harem, but in fact the implementation is not so strict.It's just that the emperor's harem, especially the first empress and four concubines, are all the daughters of courtiers from some families. It's just that these courtiers' positions are not too prominent, or they are just upstarts like myself. .

The foundation of the upstarts is unstable, and even if they have different intentions, they will not succeed.After all, the son of heaven is the king of a country, so how can he really be treated the same as other sons and grandsons of the dragon?

Commoner women are mostly illiterate, even if a merchant's family invites a husband to read and read for their daughter, but because of the lack of family background and the atmosphere of passing on poems and books, the temperament and vision are always worse than those of the famous Shugui some places.

The Son of Heaven takes care of all kinds of affairs and governs the world. He is exhausted after a day. If he is facing some uneducated and unqualified women all day, isn't it too miserable?It is always necessary to choose a few knowledgeable and accomplished ladies to accompany them, and it happens that Huan'er and Tuan'er just meet these conditions.

First, the family background is not that deep. Although there is an uncle who is a high-ranking official, it is far away after all.And the biggest backer is only the elder sister-in-law, and she remarried.The most important thing is that the backer is a woman, so there will be no disturbances...
