The young couple from the farm fights back

Chapter 172: Jie 4 Girls

It turned out that the brother and sister in front of him were the son and daughter of Governor Jie. Xiao Chao had lived for thirty years, and this was the first time he saw the heroine go out alone to meet a man. He couldn't help but admire the tolerance and unrestrained customs of the northern border.

This made him, an old man, blush and feel embarrassed.

There are thirteen sons and daughters in the governor's family. It can be said that the Xie family is a wealthy family in Youzhou City. Lord Xie has married three wives in total and has never taken a concubine. These three wives alone have made the Xie family flourish.

The girl in front of you is the fourth daughter of Lord Jie and the youngest daughter born to Lord Jie’s first wife. It is said that the eldest wife had a difficult delivery and she could not hold on and eventually passed away.

Next to Miss Jie is the tenth son of the Jie family, the eldest son of the third wife and the best brother of Miss Jie Si. He came here today specially to accompany Miss Jie Si to see her.

It is rare in the world to find a girl as old as Fourth Miss Jie who has not yet married. Xiao Chao could not even imagine that his elder brother would let him marry into the Jie family of Youzhou.

When Jie Si was young, she was extremely favored at home. Moreover, because of her parents' doting, she always looked down upon others and lacked the ability to achieve her goals.

Gradually, all the sisters in the mansion got engaged and married, leaving her as the only old girl still waiting to be married.

In the past two years, Sister Jie couldn't help but regret her youthful recklessness, but because of her age, she was afraid that she would never be able to get married in this life.

Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the worse. Yesterday, her father told her that the second eldest son of the Xiao family, the rebel army, had never been married. Although he was an old man, if she could seize this opportunity, perhaps she could get married smoothly.

Therefore, Sister Jie Si had to try her best to show that she was not a coquettish little girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. Her words and deeds were more frank and sincere, and even had an unconcealable frankness.

Xiao Chao's brain was blocked by the door, and he couldn't think of what to talk to the girl about. He couldn't help but whisper to Zhou Chunfeng beside him.

"Old Zhou, what should I say?"

Zhou Chunfeng took a sip of tea slowly, glanced at him sideways, suppressed the smile on the corner of his mouth, and whispered: "Just tell me what you want to know."

Xiao Chao: ...

There are so many things he wants to know, he can't just marry Jie Si without knowing anything.

Miss Jie Si noticed Xiao Chao's reservedness and spoke first generously: "General Xiao, there is no need to be reserved. If you have anything to say, you can ask me. I will tell you everything I know."

Seeing his elder sister's worthless look, Master Jie Shi took a deep breath, wanting to remind her to be reserved.

Xiao Chao scratched his head awkwardly and wanted to ask Zhou Chunfeng for help again.

But I saw that Lao Zhou had turned his face away, supporting his cheek with one hand, and was obviously laughing.

Xiao Chao was both depressed and helpless. He thought and thought, his face flushed red, and then he asked in a low voice: "Excuse me, Fourth Miss Jie, you, you are so old, have you really never seen each other before?"

Zhou Chunfeng: ...

This is the first time I see people talking to death!

“We’ve never met!”

Zhou Chunfeng thought that Xiao Chao's words would offend the girl, but unexpectedly, Fourth Miss Jie didn't mind at all and spoke frankly.

However, as Miss Jie Si said this, Young Master Jie Shi almost choked on the tea he drank, and quickly covered his lips and coughed twice.

Fourth Miss Jie raised her eyebrows and looked at the others, then said, "Isn't that right, Tenth Brother?"

Master Jie Shi: ...

"Yes." What else could he say? Of course he had to cooperate.

I couldn't tell General Xiao the truth that my fourth sister had dated countless men since she was a child, but none of them caught her eye.

"My fourth sister has lived in seclusion since she was young. She is a well-educated and well-mannered lady from a wealthy family and has never met a man outside her family."

Xiao Chao raised his eyebrows and gradually opened up the conversation: "I didn't expect Fourth Miss Jie to be so calm."

Zhou Chunfeng: ...

Idiot, if you don't know how to talk, you can say less.

Xiao Chao's words clearly pointed out that Fourth Miss Jie was old and still unmarried.

Unexpectedly, Fourth Miss Jie remained unconcerned and said with a smile, "As a girl, marriage is always decided by parents and matchmakers. We have many brothers and sisters, and my parents are sometimes too busy to take care of everything, so they forget about my marriage for a while."

Cough cough——.

Master Jie Shi choked after taking a sip of tea and quickly put down the teacup.

No, when father and mother are at home, disaster may come from the sky.

Seeing her younger brother choking again, Fourth Miss Jie smirked and said, "Tenth brother, look at how you can choke yourself while drinking tea."

The Tenth Master Xie felt uncomfortable holding back, and after a long pause, he said, "Yes! What my Fourth Sister said is correct. General Xiao, you can rest assured. My Fourth Sister is definitely the most outstanding woman in our Xie family. When my mother saw my Fourth Sister yesterday, she was in a trance for a moment and almost forgot her existence."

Xiao Chao believed it, and now he looked at Miss Jie Si with a much better liking.

Zhou Chunfeng pressed the corners of his lips, inexplicably feeling that Xiao Chao's personality was somewhat compatible with that of the fourth Miss Jie.

Xiao Chao continued to ask, "So, there must have been quite a few people who came to propose marriage to Fourth Miss Jie in the past."

Xiao Chao thought that Miss Jie Si was really outstanding and the threshold of her house must have been trampled down by people who came to propose marriage.

Fourth Miss Jie nodded without exaggeration: "Indeed, there are people coming to propose marriage every day. However, I don't want to see them. It was only after hearing my father talk about General Xiao that I was willing to come and meet him."

At this moment, Master Jie Shi wisely stopped drinking tea, fearing that his elder sister would tell some joke again.

"Yes, my fourth sister is a famous talented woman in Youzhou City. Not everyone can catch her eye. After all, my fourth sister has high standards for her future husband."

Upon hearing this, Fourth Miss Jie quickly explained, "No, I don't have any particular requirements. I just want to make a good impression."

"Yes, my fourth sister is a big believer in fate. Yesterday she almost broke up with me, saying that we were not meant to be together."

Fourth Miss Jie: ...

He smiled and replied, "My tenth brother loves to joke around. I'm sorry to have made you laugh, General Xiao."

Master Jie Shi: ...

Well, he'd better talk less and not say too much. If he messes up Fourth Sister's relationship, she'll definitely skin him alive.

No matter how stupid Xiao Chao was, he could see that although Fourth Miss Jie had an impatient temper, she was also a woman who did not care about trivial matters. A smile slowly appeared on his face.

"Then may I ask Miss Jie Si, do you think you and I are destined to be together?"

Upon hearing this, Fourth Miss Jie couldn't help but lower her eyes and act a little shy: "General Xiao, please forgive me for laughing at you. How dare I talk about something like fate?"

Master Jie Shi: ...

She first glanced at the shy Fourth Sister, then at Xiao Chao, who was confused across from her, and immediately understood: "General Xiao is a handsome man. My Fourth Sister definitely thinks that you two are destined to be together."

Fourth Miss Jie lowered her brows and secretly gave others a look of appreciation. Tenth brother's stubborn mind finally came to his senses and helped her.

But for Xiao Chao, he couldn't tell for a moment whether he liked it or not, and looked at others helplessly.

Zhou Chunfeng sighed, poured himself a cup of tea, and said slowly, "I heard that Master Jie's family has a strict tradition, and all the young men and women in the mansion are outstandingly talented. If Second Master could have a wife like Fourth Miss Jie to help him, it would be a blessing for our rebel army."

Of course, Zhou Chunfeng was intentionally giving Xiao Chao a hint.

This blind date was said to be just a one-on-one meeting before making a decision, but Xiao Ce's act of sending the secret letter made it clear that marriage between Xiao Chao and the Jie family was inevitable.

At least considering the Xie family's power and status in Youzhou City, the rebels' top priority is to win over the support of various forces.
