Chapter 131 Soaking with Life
The blush that Guan Ji had just faded suddenly filled her cheeks again, and she was even redder than before, as red as blood.
“Brother, what do you mean by this?”
Guan Ji’s voice was like a mosquito, and she squeezed the railing of the observation tower tightly with both hands, her joints turned white.
"When you get married in the future, don't you want to bring your dowry to your husband's house?" Feng Yong pretended not to see Guan Ji, pointed to the group of cattle and sheep below, and said seriously, "Look, although the ones below are There are still too few cattle and sheep, but you have your share. Don’t look down upon me. Believe me, after a few years, there will definitely be many more cattle and sheep than you can imagine.”
Hearing this, Guan Ji felt that she had misunderstood something and breathed a sigh of relief quietly. He raised his head, looked at Feng Yong, and asked with some surprise: "Brother, do you still decide to wish Ji Weng old things? What's the difference between giving it to me and giving it to the Guan family?"
"Of course there is a difference." Feng Yong smiled, "You can only receive the share of the cattle and sheep pasture. It would not be the same for anyone else in the Guan family."
Guan Ji frowned, as if she understood something, but she didn't seem to understand: "Even so, I don't dare to hide it from my brother. If my younger sister takes it, she will give it to the family."
"Who you want to give it to, that's your business, I can't control it. All I can control is who the cattle and sheep are going to give it to."
In this era, the property of everyone in the family is public. As long as the family is not divided, except for leaving a part to cover your own expenses, the rest is basically handed over to the family.
But Feng Yong specifically pointed out that the share of this cattle and sheep pasture is only recognized by individuals and not by families.
In fact, it gives Old Demon Zhuge a handle. If you are really worried in the future, you can directly cut off the income of these families from him.
Those families who want to get their share can only ask those who have the share to come and get it.
As for those so-called individuals, as long as they are not willing to give it to their families, those families will never get a single piece of wool.
Taking Zhao Guang as an example, everything going on in the Zhao Mansion actually has little to do with him. After Zhao Yun died, he could get some land and money, and everything in the house had nothing to do with him.
But once Zhao Guang establishes his own family, the share of these cattle and sheep will still be his, not the Zhao family's. As long as Zhao Guang doesn't speak, the Zhao family won't be able to get a single piece of wool out of it.
Let’s take Ma Dai as an example. Although he was the one who had the final say in the Ma family at this time, he couldn’t get a single feather from the chicken feathers. Ma Chao’s son Ma Cheng was holding them all.
Moreover, others don’t think he is the head of the Ma family, they only recognize him as Ma Cheng.
I believe that with Zhuge Lao Yao’s mind, he can tell the difference at a glance.
In fact, Feng Yong is making a statement: I have no intention of inflating these nobles too much, so you don’t have to worry.
As for whether Zhuge Yao believes it or not...if you have the ability, just go find the queen!
I heard that the queen is pregnant now. No matter how selfless she is, if she has a child, the child is the most important business. Don't doubt a mother's feelings for her child.
With the participation of the royal family, the old demon Zhuge can only hold his nose and accept this fait accompli. Otherwise, once Feng Yong blows himself up, the huge interests of wool and cattle and sheep ranches will definitely cause conflicts between the nobles and the royal family, and between the nobles and the royal family. Honorable men and nobles can fight each other on the spot.
This is what Zhuge Lao Yao, who wants to restore the Central Plains and return the old capital, least wants to see.
So, of course Feng Yong could not withstand the pressure from those families, but those families certainly could not withstand the pressure from Zhuge Lao Yao and the emperor. With the endorsement of the two big bosses, how could he be afraid?
The Queen is the key!
As for how the family quarreled in private, that was their own household matter and had nothing to do with Feng Yong.
“Actually, you don’t have to feel guilty because you are risking everything to revive the Guan family. Soochow has wanted Jingzhou for a long time. Even if you agree to marry Sun Quan’s son, Sun Quan will find a way to take back Jingzhou.”
A knot in one's mind for too long can easily lead to heart disease.
"Brother, why would you have such an idea?" Guan Ji's eyes widened, "Whether my younger sister gets married or not, what does it have to do with Jingzhou? Back then, Sun Quan's sister married the late emperor, and finally took Jingzhou for convenience, didn't she still want to Try your best to trick her back to Soochow? The love between children is really insignificant in the world's major events."
This time it was Feng Yong's turn to widen his eyes. He really didn't expect Guan Ji to have such thoughts.
"Besides, if I get married, then Sun Quan will ask my master for Jingzhou counties. Will he give it to me? Wouldn't it be difficult for my little sister to be a good person when she gets caught in the middle? It would be better not to marry in the first place, so as not to Your Excellency is in a dilemma. What’s more, my Lord is married to Sun Quan while on vacation in Jingzhou. What does the late emperor think?"
So Guan Yu scolded away the envoy sent by Sun Quan? Are you actually showing your loyalty to Liu Bei?
But if you think about it carefully, this is not unreasonable.
Even if Guan Yu married Guan Ji, would Sun Quan not want Jingzhou?
This is unlikely even if you think about it.
So Guan Yu was too arrogant. He knew that Soochow wanted Jingzhou in his dreams, but he did not take precautions.
"But I heard that in order to revive the Guan family, you offered to marry the Li family of Nanzhong. I thought you were feeling guilty..."
The blush that Guan Ji had just faded immediately returned to her head. She turned her head to the other side with great effort, and her voice was a little unnatural: "How did brother learn about this?"
“Zi Shierlang…”
Although he stopped talking in time, Feng Yong still accidentally betrayed his younger brother.
Guan Ji has almost broken her teeth.
This Zhao Erlang really dares to say anything!
"If we don't revive the Guan family, how can we wash away the humiliation of the Guan family's loss of Jingzhou?" Guan Ji lowered her eyes, her blush quickly faded, and her face became a little pale, "Back then, the adults and the eldest brother wanted to allow the younger sister and second brother to escape. When I got out, I did not hesitate to divert the pursuers myself. Unexpectedly, after the two of us escaped back to Shuzhong, we got the news that both the master and the eldest brother had been killed..."
So this is your obsession?
In order to wash away the humiliation of the Guan family, he even gave up his own dignity in exchange for a chance to revive the Guan family.
Feng Yong sighed, but didn't know what to say.
Looking at Guan Ji, who had her head lowered and a sad expression next to her, Feng Yong realized that the cold and strong appearance she had always had was actually a manifestation of her hard work.
Stretched out his hand, gently put it on Guan Ji's shoulder, and brought her slightly closer to him.
Guan Ji, who usually looks cold and inviolable, looks weak at this time.
When she slowly leaned on Feng Yong's shoulder, she realized in surprise, then clapped her hands hard, and suddenly she reacted again. She wanted to stop, but it was too late.
Even though he had regained most of his strength, Feng Yong still screamed in pain and hit the fence with a bang.
He had already heard the creaking and groaning of the wood, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Don't let me off the hook at this time, otherwise you will really spend your life trying to pick up girls!
“Brother, are you okay?”
Guan Ji used her backhand to hold Feng Yong back.
Feng Tubiao was trembling all over, holding Guan Ji's wrist tightly, and looked back at the fence with lingering fear.
