After Rebirth, I Became a Powerful Minister’s Beloved

Nan Baoyi put down the teacup and rested his chin with one hand, Danfeng looked at him with bright eyes: "Do you think I was born good-looking, or the third princess was born good-looking?"

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows.

This is a sending proposition.

He replied without hesitation: "Of course it is Jiaojiao."

"If you don't want to marry the third princess, and the emperor orders you to marry her, what should you do?"

Another sending proposition.

Xiao Yi stretched out his hand to straighten the broken hair on her forehead, "Then overthrow the world."

Nan Baoyi was very satisfied with his answer, and secretly thought that he really wanted to marry him.

She was about to pick up the tea bowl, thought for a while and then asked, "If your mother and I fell into the water at the same time, who would you save first?"

Xiao Yi: "..."

Yes, I still send the proposition.

He stared at Nan Baoyi's eyes, and said warmly: "Jiaojiao is the most beautiful in the world. If she is not Jiaojiao, she will not marry. There are fields, houses, yards and shops at home. The family is quite rich. Before any danger, save Jiaojiao first. , Baoda."

Baoda...

Nan Baoyi was stunned for a moment before he realized what this guy meant.

But they haven't even gotten married, so where are they going to have children, and where are they going to protect their children? !

Her pink cheeks were flushed, she picked up the tea bowl as if to cover up, and only lowered her head to drink tea.

Xiao Yi propped his elbows on the flower table, stretched out his hand and twirled the tourmaline beads on her white and tender ears, "Jiaojiao finished asking, it's my turn to ask."

His fingertips were slightly rough with thin calluses.

Following the tourmaline beads to her earballs, it was itchy and numb.

Nan Baoyi always lowered his eyes, his neck was slender and elegant, "What do you want to ask, second brother?"

"I have never proposed a marriage in my life, and I don't know anything about dowry. If you want to marry the little girl from Nanfu, how much dowry do you need?"

Nan Baoyi blinked.

She had never met a man who ran up to the woman and asked her how much she wanted as a bride price.

She wants to be hired by the country, can he also afford it?

She pursed her lips hesitantly.

She remembered that in her previous life, the Cheng family was hired by the government, and they gave ten dowry gifts.

It is very rare, compared to ordinary rich and noble families, the dowry gifts are even less.

The grandmother and the second aunt were angry, and immediately wanted to regret the marriage.

But she refused.

How vain she was at that time, she thought she was about to become an official wife, so how could she be willing to temporarily regret the marriage and become the biggest laughing stock of Jinguan City?

Grandmother and second aunt had nothing to do with her, so they had to let her go.

At dusk, she ran to the storeroom alone, boldly opened the ten loads of dowry gifts.

Inside the red lacquered box were all things that looked large but were actually worthless, such as vases, silver basins, cloth, and so on.

Not even a decent piece of jewelry.

She was staring at the mahogany box in a daze.

She thought that brother Cheng was still gentle and polite to her, so he must like her.

It's just that the official family has nothing to do, so the Cheng family can't spend so much money, and can't buy more betrothal gifts for Brother Cheng.

So comforting herself, she suddenly heard a sneer coming from the warehouse door.

she looked over.

The most hated boy in the house was leaning against the door with his arms folded, with a sarcastic expression on his face.

Feeling ashamed, she hastily covered the red-lacquered wooden box and scolded sharply: "Xiao Yi, you really don't follow the rules, how could you spy on this girl privately?!"

"The Cheng family will give you this dowry when they marry you? It seems that the other party doesn't take you seriously."

"You're talking nonsense!"

The young man smiled, took out a thick book from his pocket, and threw it at her feet loosely.

He said lazily: "The Cheng family has been corrupt and accepting bribes for twenty years, and all the accounts are here. Their family is very rich, and they don't need your dowry, it's just a question of whether they are willing to give it or not."

She hastily picked up the account.

When I opened it, although I couldn't understand it very well, I could see that there was a huge amount of money exchanged.

Far from ordinary prefect, can afford.

She read page by page, her hands trembling uncontrollably.

Xiao Yi said again: "If I were you, I would ask someone to take this account and go to Shengjing City to sue the imperial court to retaliate against the Cheng family for not caring about you."

Nan Baoyi closed the accounts.

She disliked: "You depend on my family for food, clothing, housing, and transportation. You are a lowly thing that is not even as good as a servant! You see that I am going to marry the son of the prefect's family, and you are jealous that I will soon be happy, so you are uneasy and kind, and want to break up my family." Marriage. I have seen through your conspiracy, and I will not do what you wish!"

The curvature of Xiao Yi's lips was gradually suppressed.

He stared at her indifferently.

After a while, he suddenly walked towards her.

He was so tall, and his aura was so cold and gloomy, coupled with the fact that there was no one in the warehouse and the sky was getting dark, Nan Baoyi couldn't help but feel scared.

She raised her head and chest out with momentum, imitating the words of those servants in the mansion who scolded Xiao Yi secretly, pointing at the tip of Xiao Yi's nose and scolding: "You unwanted bastard, what second son, you are just a rough envoy It's just a handyman, how dare you look at Miss Ben with such eyes? I, I, I, I am the lady you want to serve filially..."

Xiao Yi's eyes are too scary!

Her aura gradually weakened, and she subconsciously backed away until her back hit the mahogany box.

She raised her head, nervous and timid: "I warn you, if you don't obey, I will punish you to kneel in the ancestral hall and not give you food—"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yi pinched his cheek.

He bent down, Danfeng's eyes were as dark as an abyss, and his voice was hoarse and deep: "Nan Baoyi, you'd better not marry Cheng De."

"pain……"

Nan Baoyi was very delicate, and tears welled up in her eyes.

His hands were so strong that he seemed to crush her face.

She never knew that this submissive bastard was actually so hostile.

Tears fell on the back of Xiao Yi's hand.

He slowly let go of his hand, condescending, and emphasized again: "Don't marry Cheng De."

"To be married..."

Nan Baoyi choked up and retorted, tears falling harder.

"like him?"

"like."

Nan Baoyi nodded seriously.

In fact, at that time, she didn't understand what liking was at all.

She took vanity as liking, and her passion for power and status as love.

So much so that one foot stepped into the abyss, and in the end it was beyond redemption.

Xiao Yi didn't say anything more.

He bent down, raised the rough back of his hand, and silently wiped her tears.

How arrogant and domineering Nan Baoyi was at that time, he said with disgust: "You are dirty and humble, my lady is delicate, you are not allowed to touch me."

At that time, she only thought about herself.

She didn't look at Xiao Yi's expression, nor did she bother to look at it.

Xiao Yi withdrew his hand silently, seemed to stare at her for a while, then turned and left.

The memory in my mind gradually blurred.

After Xiao Yi left, there were only ten dowries left in the treasury, which was pitiful and desolate.

She didn't know the authenticity of the account book, but she trusted Brother Cheng after all, so she burned the account book to pieces.

Thinking about it now...

Nan Baoyi raised his eyes.

That account book should be real.

It turned out that in the previous life, the second elder brother gave her a chance to turn around.

It's because she didn't cherish it herself.
