After Rebirth, I Became a Powerful Minister’s Beloved

But after turning over two pages of the book, for some reason, he still misses that purse in his heart.

How sad it would be for the little girl to know that he lost the gift she made with her own hands.

He put down the book and went out through the window in silence.

He quietly looked around, seeing that there was no one around, so he pretended to be innocent and picked up the purse, still wearing it on his waist.

the other side.

Nan Baoyi came out of the study, planning to visit her grandmother.

But at the gate of Songhe Courtyard, he bumped into Mrs. Xia and Xia Qingqing.

The mother and daughter were all smiling, as if they had a happy event.

Nan Baoyi bowed politely.

Mrs. Xia knew that her daughter would inevitably show off in front of girls of the same age, so she smiled dotingly and said, "Qingqing, I'll wait for you at the front."

After she left, Xia Qingqing raised her eyebrows triumphantly, "Nan Baoyi, I'm here to send the wedding invitation to your house. Guess who wants to get married?"

Nan Baoyi didn't even need to guess.

If you think about it with your toes, you can tell that Xia Qingqing and Wang Ling have cooked rice. In order to cover up the scandal, the Xia family inevitably married Xia Qingqing to him as soon as possible.

A good lady in the boudoir, it's nothing more than climbing a man's bed, and it's not too shameful to show up and send wedding invitations everywhere.

But she still smiled cooperatively: "I don't know."

"I'm going to marry Imperial Envoy Wang!" Xia Qingqing excitedly said, "Brother Wang Ling is a second-rank Beijing official. This time, he paid a private visit to Jinguan City, but he fell in love with me at first sight! He also said that when he returns to Chang'an, he will invite you Your Majesty, seal me as the second-rank madam!"

As she spoke, she glanced critically at Nan Baoyi.

When she heard that Nan Baoyi was engaged to Young Master Cheng, she was very envious.

But what is Cheng De compared to Wang Qinchao?

Something that doesn't even have fame!

Among the girls who have not left the court in Jinguancheng, Xia Qingqing is the best one to marry!

She is not lacking in pride: "Nan Baoyi, although we are all girls from wealthy families, people are different after all. You can only marry the second son of a mere prefect, and when you see me in the future, you have to bow down Woolen cloth!"

Nan Baoyi's face was full of exaggeration and envy: "Wow,

Then I have to congratulate Sister Qingqing! Wang Qinchao is a second-rank official at a young age, and his future prospects are limitless. Moreover, his appearance is very plump and handsome, he is really a rare good husband in the world! "

"Hmph!" Xia Qingqing smugly said, "You have vision!"

"Sister Qingqing, don't worry, when you get married, I will definitely go to Xiafu to have a wedding wine." Nan Baoyi smiled meaningfully, "I want to see with my own eyes how you obtained 'happiness'."

Xia Qingqing once let Xia Bowen, who was suffering from Hualiu disease, approach her to insult her innocence.

Fortunately, she was protected by the blessings of the powerful ministers, so they did not succeed.

She is not someone who repays grievances with kindness. If Xia Qingqing wants to harm her, she should be prepared for revenge.

And Xia Qingqing was so immersed in the joy of becoming an official wife that she didn't notice the sarcasm in her eyes at all.

...

Half a month later, the wedding of Xia Qingqing and Wang Ling arrived as scheduled.

Nan Baoyi woke up early and ordered the maid to dress her up beautifully.

He Ye put a hairpin on for her, and said with a smile: "Miss seems to be very happy today."

"The trees I planted have blossomed and bear fruit, so I'm naturally happy." Nan Baoyi frowned, "Let's go see Second Brother."

The friendship between the Nan family and the Xia family is shallow, so the only two juniors, Nan Baoyi and Xiao Yi, represented the Nan family at the wedding banquet.

When the brother and sister went out of the house together, they happened to run into Nan Guang and Nan Yan.

Nan Guang clasped his hands in his sleeves and asked curiously, "Where are you two going?"

"Father, my second brother and I are going to attend the wedding banquet in the Xia Mansion."

"Oh, the wedding banquet..." Nan Guang rolled his eyes, "Take me and Yan'er too!"

Nan Baoyi was quite reluctant.

It's not that she dislikes her father, but because it's too embarrassing to go out to a banquet with him.

In the past, when her father went out to have a banquet on behalf of Nanfu, his grandmother clearly gave him a gift money of two thousand taels of silver, but he filled his own pockets and only stingily gave the host a gift of two thousand taels of silver, making others laugh at Nanfu for half a year!

That's all, he sat at the banquet, and picked out all the expensive dishes to eat, and when this table ran out, he took the bowl to another table.

After eating, it doesn't count, and he has to pack a few more dishes to go back to his outer room and his daughter.

It's fine if it's an ordinary family, the key is that the Nan family is not short of money, he made it look like the family treated him harshly!

Therefore, no one in the mansion is willing to attend the banquet with him!

Before Nan Baoyi refused, Nan Guang went straight to the stable happily.

The carriage slowly drove towards Xia Mansion.

Nan Baoyi sat in the corner of the carriage, silently looking at his father and the powerful minister.

Perhaps the atmosphere was too weird, her father coughed, patted the shoulder of the powerful minister, and officially opened the prelude to the conversation:

"Xiao Yi, it's all because of our Nan family's good Feng Shui that you can become Lord Marquis, and it's because the ancestral graves are emitting green smoke!"

Nan Baoyi was speechless.

The title of a powerful minister is obtained in exchange for his life on the battlefield. What does it have to do with Feng Shui and ancestral graves?

Xiao Yi drank his tea, noncommittal.

Nan Guang said earnestly again: "Xiao Yi, I heard that Yan'er brought you breakfast yesterday, but you didn't eat a single bite. You didn't even want the purse she made for you so hard. I This uncle wants to warn you, young people, don't be arrogant. Yan'er is your sister, you have to love her!"

Xiao Yi smiled.

Even Nan Maomao dared to reprimand him in front of his face. Thinking about him as a marquis, he was very underestimated.

He put down the teacup, "Third Uncle thinks, how should the Marquis take care of my sister?"

Nan Guang straightened his waist, and said convincingly: "Naturally, she is obedient to her! You should spoil Rouge just as you usually dote on Jiaojiao. As elders, we want a bowl of water to be fair!"

"A bowl of water is flat..." Xiao Yi smiled, "As far as I know, the third uncle has never spent the holidays with Jiaojiao in the past two years. As for the annual lucky money, you give Nanjing five hundred taels and Nan Yan Two hundred taels, when it comes to Jiaojiao's place, it's only five taels. Third uncle set an example, so why not Xiao Yi follow suit?"

"You fart!" Nan Guang became furious, "My bowl of water is very flat! Jiaojiao stays in the mansion all year round and has no shortage of money. Why do you give so much lucky money? Jing'er and Yan'er are different. They Growing up outside the house, life is hard!"

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows, "According to the third uncle's logic, Jiaojiao has not been loved by her father for many years. As an elder brother, I naturally have to give her more pampering. As for Nan Yan, she has the third uncle's pampering, so why bother looking for me?"

"you--"

Nan Guang was speechless by his rebuttal.

Nan Baoyi hugged the tuanhua soft pillow, looking at this person and that person.

Seeing her father so angry, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

It's amazing that the powerful minister and an old rascal like her father can win in a fight!

Contestant No. 1 is declared defeated!

She looked at Nan Rou, guessing that the number two contestant should be on the stage.

Sure enough, Nan Yan said softly: "Second Brother, Daddy, don't quarrel with me, I feel ashamed. Second Brother, I am an honest person. I usually only know how to treat others with all my heart and soul, and I can't play too many tricks. And she won't be as flattering as Jiaojiao. My brother Nan Jing is even more honest, he even wrote a letter two days ago, saying that he admires you very much."

Nan Baoyi pricked up his ears.

Why did she listen, Nan Yan went around to introduce Nan Jing to the powerful minister?

That's right, with the recommendation of the Second Rank Marquis, even if Nan Jing doesn't take part in the scientific examination, it is very easy to become an official in Jinguan City.
