After Rebirth, I Became a Powerful Minister’s Beloved

Chapter 60 The Cheng family can't afford Nan Jiaojiao

Remember in a second【】

"I am an adopted son, and it is common for me to be humiliated and excluded in the academy. Therefore, the work of transcribing the annotations of the article was pushed on me by them."

Nan Baoyi's face flushed slightly.

Back then, she was also the one who bullied Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi took a sip of hot tea and said sarcastically:

"In that long winter, I transcribed a total of 550,000 words of annotations, and I even read dozens of original works involved. Although my hands were frostbitten, since then, my writing skills have leapt a thousand miles. If you know the classics and history collections like the back of your hand, and your homework results are even easier, you can get a first class in the academy."

He reached out and touched Nan Baoyi's head, "So Nan Jiaojiao, if she loses, she must gain."

Nan Baoyi seems to have realized something.

It turns out that the reason for the power minister to look at the account is to cultivate his own ability?

"Don't touch my head..." She dodged Xiao Yi's hand and muttered, "But what's the use of so many bills, you won't be an accountant in the future!"

"The expenses of the mansion need to be checked, the marches and wars need to be checked, and even the politics of the court need to be checked. Do you think this kind of ability is important?"

Nan Baoyi pursed his lips.

Her second aunt is very good at keeping tabs and keeps the house in order.

Knowing how to read accounts is really an amazing skill!

She moved closer to the young man, "Second brother, can you teach me how to read the accounts?"

The little girl is soft and fragrant.

Being next to Xiao Yi made him feel uncomfortable all over.

Inexplicably, images of colleagues embracing beauties appeared in his mind.

He also wanted to hold Nan Jiaojiao in his arms.

But Nan Jiaojiao was his sister after all.

How can an elder brother have such thoughts about his younger sister?

He closed his eyes.

When he opened it again, those narrow eyes were clear and calm, with traces of chill in them.

He quietly closed the ledger,

"roll."

Nan Baoyi: "...???"

Dan Feng's eyes widened and she looked at Xiao Yi in disbelief.

She didn't seem to offend him, did she? !

The powerful minister is too moody!

She was full of anger, straightened up with a sullen face, and pointed at the tip of Xiao Yi's nose unceremoniously: "I tell you, don't go too far! Rabbits will bite when they are in a hurry, if you make me anxious Yes, I will, I will..."

After holding back for a long time, he couldn't say a word of threat.

She is just a boudoir girl, what can she threaten him?

She also noticed that Xiao Yi was staring at her outstretched index finger with dark eyes.

Remembering that he once bit her finger, she quickly withdrew her hand, glared at Xiao Yi viciously, turned around and walked out of the tent.

Just a few steps away, someone came in through the curtain.

He is a young man of twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a strong and simple personality. Judging from the official robes, he should be a fifth-rank general.

Nan Baoyi took two steps back and saluted sullenly.

The young man stayed where he was in amazement.

He grew up in the barracks, and he had never seen such a beautiful girl!

He stammered: "You, you are Xiao Yi's younger sister?"

He spoke well, but his face gradually turned red.

Nan Baoyi was very satisfied.

She just said, she is obviously dressed up very beautifully today, the reaction of the general is normal.

It's not like Xiao Yi, who looks like an elm bump!

She withdrew her coquettish energy, and said weakly: "Return to the adults, the little girl's name is Baoyi."

"Baoyi...your name is so nice!" The young man's eyes glowed, "My surname is Yan, and because I was born in a wheat field, my mother named me Yan Mai. I am twenty-five years old, unmarried, and my family has Thirty acres of fertile land and two buffaloes. I have been in the army for fifteen years, and I have saved some money. I bought a small house with three entrances in Qingyi Lane, Jinguan City a few days ago."

Nan Baoyi raised his eyebrows.

This honest young man has fiery and shy eyes.

Probably all the men in the barracks were honest, and he told all about his wealth like a babble.

If she guessed correctly, General Yan might have taken a fancy to her.

Nan Baoyi scrutinized him a little.

A fifth-rank ginseng general has a lot of assets, but he can't afford to support her.

Compared with the rich and powerful children of Zanying for generations, the starting point is too poor and the upper limit is too low.

Nan Baoyi has only two wishes to live a new life.

The Baonan family lived in peace and prosperity, and married the person in power in Shengjing City.

So in short, this general Yan is not a good match for her.

She smiled politely and said: "Master Yan can become a general at such a young age. It's amazing. My daughter admires him. From now on, I hope Master Yan will take good care of my brother."

She returned the gift and left without looking back.

Until Qianying disappeared, General Yan was still reluctant to look away.

He reluctantly turned to Xiao Yi, "Your younger sister is really knowledgeable, gentle and virtuous. I wonder if there is any talk of marriage?"

Xiao Yi sneered.

The delicate and willful Nan Jiaojiao is actually praised as knowledgeable, gentle and virtuous.

Is the world blind?

What's more, that little girl is very picky, and she clearly doesn't like Yan Mai, so it's worth his asking her if she's married.

He said lightly: "Marriage or not, what does it have to do with you?"

"This... I don't think so too, so what!" Yan Mai scratched embarrassingly.

^0^ Remember in a second【】

Scratching his head, "After all, I'm not too young, and my brothers in the same village are already holding two babies."

Xiao Yi pursed his lips: "My sister was born with rich clothes and fine food, and she made seventy-two sets of new clothes every year, added nine sets of jewelry every season, embroidered shoes must be made of Shu brocade and gold, breakfast must have twelve desserts, and the kitchen must have Stew bird's nest from time to time, don't drink tea that isn't made with snow and dew, don't eat meals that aren't complete with sea, land, air, poultry and livestock, don't eat rouge that isn't freshly made within seven days. Can you afford it?"

Nan Baoyi's small characters are Jiaojiao.

How the word "Jiaojiao" came about, I'm afraid not many outsiders know.

Yan Mai was dumbfounded.

Is this marrying a daughter-in-law or making offerings to Bodhisattvas? !

With his little family background, if he raises this girl, he won't last half a month at all!

His idea of ​​charming love disappeared into thin air in fright, and he sighed: "My dear, what kind of family can afford to support this?!"

Xiao Yi unhurriedly flipped through the account books.

There are only a handful of families in Shu County who can afford to support Nan Jiaojiao.

But there is no doubt that the Cheng family cannot afford to support Nan Jiaojiao.

"Almost forgot!" Yan Mai slapped his head suddenly, "General Situ asked me to send a message, please go to Qingcheng Mountain to supervise the grain and check the accounts."

...

When Nan Baoyi returned to Nanfu, it was gradually slanting westward.

She sat on the swing in a daze.

I can't figure out why I went to the military camp this time.

She didn't get any benefits, and Xiao Yi beat her up fiercely and told her to get out.

"Get out, get out, will I curry favor with you forever?"

"I'm just using you, look at how aggressive you are!"

The girl nestled on fire, grabbed a peony flower, and crushed it in her palm.

"What's so great about being able to read accounts? Isn't it just for accounting? Give me an abacus, and I can do it too! Who cares about your teaching?"

While thinking about it, He Ye suddenly ran over in a panic: "Miss, something happened in the house!"

Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
