Chapter 3 Be the princess' puppy!
Chapter 3 Be my princess’s puppy!
"The official will issue a decree to marry the consort the princess chooses. Is there any problem with this? Or are you questioning the official's decision?"
"The junior officials don't dare! The junior officials are just discussing the issues of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce..."
Jing Yu thought to himself: Tsk! What a turn of phrase! He was far away from the government in an instant and only criticized the character of Jing Yu, the consort!
The legitimate sons and concubines of the Anding Marquis Mansion are all talented. The eldest son has already become an official, the third son has been selected as a scholar, and the fourth son has now reached the age of entering a private school. Seeing the younger ones excelling one after another, he actually can't feel that he is a good person at all.
How embarrassing the situation is.
However, he could not refute the issue that merchants' ways were not on the table. Dou Zhong insisted on this truth and was determined to embarrass him today.
Sure enough, Jing Yu on the opposite side didn't speak again.
Dou Zhong chuckled secretly: He must be speechless!
However, just when he was secretly proud, he heard Jing Yu let out a melancholy "tsk".
Dou Zhong controlled his expression and asked with a smile: "I wonder what the prince-in-law thinks of the question raised by the junior official?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jing Yu waved his hand and replied: "Wait a minute!"
Dou Zhong lowered his head and suddenly found Jing Yu staring at his waist.
Dou Zhong suddenly felt that it was inappropriate and shouted sternly: "Consort, what are you looking at?"
Jing Yu's eyes did not move away, but his finger did point to the jade on Dou Zhong's waist. After being stopped by Dou Zhong, he sighed and said: "Oh! Originally, I really wanted to argue with you.
Just a few sentences, but after looking at your jade pendant, I suddenly realized... May I ask how much you bought this jade pendant for?"
"Fifty taels, what's wrong?"
"Then how long have you been wearing it?"
"More than three years..." Dou Zhong felt something was wrong and quickly changed the subject, "No, why do you ask this question?"
Jing Yu looked pitiful and sighed: "I finally understand why you hate businessmen so much! Brother, you are so miserable!"
Dou Zhong: "???"
Jing Yu patted his shoulder sympathetically and continued: "You have been wearing fake jade for three years and you don't even know it! How many taels of silver do you think you, a fourth-grade attendant, can have in your hand? Maybe even your wife has
I can’t afford to marry! And now I’m still being deceived like this! Profiteers are certainly hateful, and I despise such profiteers as much as you do!”
Dou Zhong was immediately stunned by this operation. He blushed for a moment and took a few steps back.
Seeing him retreating, Jing Yu's voice became louder: "Brother, you have really been deceived! I swear to God, this quality is worth ten taels of silver at most. If you don't believe me, today
It just so happens that everyone is here, I am definitely not the only one who knows this, I will find someone to show you!"
At this time, the guests at the banquet began to discuss one after another. Some women even covered their faces with fans and couldn't help laughing.
Dou Zhong felt that he was extremely embarrassed and turned around to leave. Jing Yu saw that he was about to leave and quickly chased after him. While chasing, he said: "To be honest, I really don't have much ability, but I still feel that
Zhou needs good merchants like me! If you want to buy jade next time, come to me! I have all the best jade, and you will definitely get a discount from me! If you go to a store that cooperates with me, mention my name
There are also discounts... Hey! Wait! Why are you leaving? Don't you still have issues to discuss?"
Before Jing Yu finished speaking, Dou Zhong quickened his pace and disappeared from the public's sight after a while.
Jing Yu looked at the stunned guests at the banquet and thought that since he had already promoted the jade selling business in public today, he might as well promote it to the end. It would always be good to have more guests from the nobility of the capital.
Sometimes Jing Yu also feels that he is a clever little guy who can always seize various business opportunities.
So, Jing Yu greeted the remaining guests, and followed these words to educate the guests on how to identify jade, and the scene gradually returned to its original harmony.
In the end, Jing Yu kindly sent away the nearly eaten guests one by one. After all the guests left, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The last guest said jokingly before leaving: "Just send it here. Prince-in-law should go back to the bridal chamber as soon as possible! The princess must be waiting impatiently!"
Jing Yu chuckled and said, "Okay!"
After all the guests were sent off, Jing Yu followed Xing Tao to the bridal chamber. When he went back, Xing Tao took the initiative to say: "Master, just follow me. Don't look around. If you lose me halfway,
If so, it will be difficult to handle."
Jingyu responded, thinking that he couldn't see the road at night anyway, so he honestly re-entered the bridal chamber with Xingtao.
Xingtao told Xu Ruyi, who was sitting at the table, about Jing Yu's performance just now. Xu Ruyi was very happy after hearing this and praised: "The little prince-in-law performed well!"
After receiving Xu Ruyi's praise, Jing Yu couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Hehe! Play your part normally, as long as you are satisfied with it, princess!"
Of course Xu Ruyi was satisfied. She looked at the little guy in front of her who was so excited that she wanted to wag his tail after being praised. The more she looked at it, the more interesting she found it. Of course, the sentence that satisfied her the most was——
"The words we just said at the banquet must be kept in mind, my little consort!"
Jing Yu was stunned: "Which sentence?"
Xu Ruyi looked at this ignorant little guy, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, stood up from her seat, came to Jing Yu, and emphasized seriously: "You know that this princess likes you!"
Jing Yu: "..."
It turned out to be this sentence...
When he mentioned this, he really had a question to ask her. After thinking that he couldn't get married to her without knowing it, he mustered up the courage to ask: "Princess, I have a question, and I must know the answer..."
"you say!"
"That, that..." When Jing Yu asked this, he was afraid of making Xu Ruyi unhappy, but he still asked firmly: "Why did you choose me to be your consort?"
What does she want from him?
What about his family background? The Anding Marquis Mansion is not yet in power, and there is no fuel-efficient lamp in the house. After Jing Xi attacked the nobility, he became a rebel. He, the second son of the Marquis Mansion, was thinking about how to escape, but she actually
I want to marry in!
Looking at his character? It’s not like she didn’t know how she scolded him at the banquet just now. Although he was different from those dandies who were looking for flowers and flowers, he was still judged as an idler and his reputation was in ruins.
Wanting his money? It’s not like a royal princess...
So what was she picturing? Could it be that she was picturing his face?
Seeing his awkward look, Xu Ruyi found him even more interesting, so she took two steps forward, gently hooked Jing Yu's chin with her long index finger, and whispered in his ear: "Didn't I just say that
Yes—because this princess likes you!"
Hi, like him?!
As soon as he said these words, Jing Yu's mind went blank.
In his two lifetimes, he had never been confessed like this before, so Jing Yu was immediately confused and even more nervous.
But Xu Ruyi's eyes were particularly firm. She smiled sweetly and said solemnly: "Be my princess's puppy! I will keep you!"
After hearing this, Jing Yu felt that his face was getting hot, and even his ears were burning hot.
However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Princess, the nun is here."
When Xu Ru saw the wet nurse coming, she knew that we had something important to discuss, so she patted Jing Yu on the shoulder and told him: "Young gentleman, please warm my bed first! I'll be back as soon as I go!"
After saying that, Xu Ruyi opened the door and left with her roommate.
After she went out, she and her roommate soon came to a deserted place.
Xu Ruyi checked the roof and the back of the house to make sure that no one was there, and then followed the roommate into a room and closed the door tightly.
The nun in the room then said: "All the guests on the surface have left, but a few nuns said they would go back to report the situation tomorrow morning, so they stayed in the guest room and have not left yet."
Xu Ruyi's eyes deepened: "Are the people left behind from the official family or from the eldest lady?"
