Chapter 2 【Chapter One】

In the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, there were two rich pastures, one in the north and one in the south.The one in the north is Fengjia Ranch in Fengjiazhuang, and the one in the south is Niujia Ranch in Niujiazhuang. Due to the conflict of interests in the business field, Feng and Niu have turned against each other for generations, and it is still the same today. However, Feng and Niu, who have never been in touch with each other since old age and death, have undergone major changes since Feng Tingjie, the young head of the Feng family, took over the Feng family ranch. He proposed marriage to Niu Ru, the head of the Niu family, in order to improve the bad relationship between the two families through a marriage alliance.This is not only a sensation in the world, but also set off unprecedented waves in the Feng and Niu families.

North‧Fengjia Ranch The second master, Feng Ting, galloped back to his home, Fengjiazhuang, which was located in the main ranch of Fengjia. Big brother, big brother, I heard that you are going to marry the daughter of the cattle ranch in the south, but is it true?People couldn't hide their curious questions before they stepped into the threshold of the hall. Feng Tingjie, who was sitting in the middle of the hall looking at the ledger, didn't look up, and just replied casually: I sent someone to make an offer to the old man Niu, that's right. Did the old man agree?He was most curious about this.

accepted. yeah! ?Old man Niu would agree to this marriage?Brother spent a lot of hire money, right?It seems that having money can not only make ghosts turn the millstone, but also make the old man sell his daughter. Feng Tingjie always put all his energy on the books, as if the marriage had nothing to do with him, and replied: not many, just three good stallions. Coughing until Feng Tingyang almost choked on the tea that Fang entered his throat on the spot, brother, are you kidding me?Will that stubborn old man like three stallions? The old man Niu agreed, and he agreed very readily, as soon as he saw the three stallions, he immediately agreed to marry him.

No way, Feng Tingyang became more and more confused about what Niu Ru was thinking, how could he marry the jewel in his palm to the feud so easily?Brother, does the daughter of the Niu family have some unspeakable hidden disease, or is she so ugly that even ghosts and snakes would take three steps back?There must be something strange, otherwise the old man Niu would not easily agree to the marriage with their Feng family. The old god Feng Tingjie said: Don't worry, I have sent spies who have been hiding in Niu's village for many years to verify in advance that the old man Niu has three daughters, all of whom are beautiful, and there is no hidden disease.

That's even more unusual.Maybe the old man Niu is playing tricks on us, I'm afraid that the one who will be married will be an impostor or something.Feng Tingyang was not ambiguous at all. It is possible.So the second brother, I will trouble you to go south and welcome the elder sister to the north for the elder brother.Our Feng family can't afford to lose the face of being played by the Niu family and ridiculed by the world.When saying this, Feng Tingjie was finally willing to use more snacks. Feng Tingyang readily agreed.No problem, this is all on me, I will never let the old man's scheme succeed.However, I can't figure it out, brother, why did you marry the daughter of your deadly enemy?If he hadn't known that his elder brother had always been a pragmatist, he would have thought that his elder brother was just like the rumors in the neighborhood, because he was attracted to the beauty of the daughter of the Niu family!

Feng Tingjie snorted indifferently with the corners of his lips slightly raised: To be honest, the horses and sheep of our Fengjia Ranch are unparalleled in the world. Although the cattle are not bad, they are not as good as the Niujia Ranch that is good at raising cattle.According to the reports of the spies who have been lurking in the Niu family for many years, the old man Niu has only three daughters and has no successors, and the three daughters have been helping the Niu family's ranch since they were young, so they should have a lot of experience in how to raise the best cattle. The secret to raising good cattle at home.If I marry the daughter of the Niu family, won't I have a chance to find out the secret of the Niu family's cattle raising?Besides, the daughter of the Niu family is not bad-looking, and taking it is equal to a man and a cow, so why not marry her?

Goodbye!Goodbye!Feng Tingyang admired his brother's shrewdness more than ever. Compared with the spring breeze of the Feng family brothers, the grand occasion of the Niujiazhuang located in the south of the Yangtze River can be said to be even worse, but the bustling situation is not the same. Voice. I said the father of the child!Why are you so foolish, you have hastily ruined your daughter's lifelong happiness for the sake of three beasts, you are the child's father, Mrs. Niu is so distressed that she keeps complaining. Master Niu carefully corrected: the child's mother, those are not ordinary animals, they are three excellent stallions!

Animals are animals, no matter how good they are, they are still animals. How can they be compared with our beautiful daughters?And you actually sold your daughter for three animals, oh my daughter's life is so miserable! Mrs. Niu burst into tears in distress. Mr. Niu, who has always been famous for pampering his wife, hurriedly comforted Mrs. Niu who had a runny nose and tears: madam, madam!Don't cry first, listen to me, listen to me! You sold your daughter's lifelong happiness with three animals, it's a foregone conclusion, what else is there to say?Wuzhizhi, my life is so miserable, my daughter's life is so miserable too, to have such a cruel father, wow Zhizhi

Mr. Niu cried for Mrs. Niu, sighed deeply in annoyance, and shouted helplessly: I did this as a last resort. After all, it is for the future of our Niu family and the rest of our daughter's life. son Father of the child, are you blaming me for not having a son for the Niu family?Do you hate me? The conscience of heaven and earth!Feel your conscience, we have been married for decades, do I blame you for not having a son?Master Niu eagerly clarified. This was not said so, Mrs. Niu finally calmed down and stopped crying.How could she not know Master Niu's love for her? The Niu family is a wealthy family, and as the head wife, she has not given birth to a son or half son, so she has been divorced a long time ago, or she was buried in a corner and cried secretly when she watched Master Niu marry another house.However, Mr. Niu didn't divorce her, and she didn't marry a concubine to enter the house. He has spoiled her all by himself for decades. This kindness is not fake at all!

You said it was for our daughter, what is going on?Thinking of her husband's kindness and the guilt of having no children, Mrs. Niu finally calmed down and listened to what her husband had to say. Master Niu sighed again and said: Ma'am, I know that although our Niu family ranch and the Feng family ranch in the north dominate the north and south, in fact, since the great plague in the south of the Yangtze River a few years ago, it took away the most of our ranch. After the good stallions, our Niujia ranch can no longer raise good horses, only the cattle are not bad, and the income and strength suddenly dropped by half.Compared with our predicament, the Fengjia Ranch in the north has raised more sheep than us. Since the great plague, their horses have become the best horses in the world. Although the cattle are worse than ours , but compared with the overall strength, it is quite unfavorable to us!In addition, the old man Feng has three strong and capable sons. Since the eldest son of the Feng family has taken charge of the family, he has posed a powerful threat to our Niu family ranch.

What shall we do then?The more Mrs. Niu heard, the more serious the situation became.She also heard about Feng Tingjie, the young head of the Feng family. That young man is shrewd and capable, ambitious, and more powerful than the previous old boss, and his two younger brothers are not ordinary people.Since the three brothers took charge of the family, they have posed a considerable threat to their Niu family ranch. In the past year alone, they have taken away 30% of the business of their Niu family ranch. Why did Feng Tingjie come to propose marriage?The more Mrs. Niu thought about it, the worse it became. Master Niu shrewdly said: "Mostly, he wants to use the marriage to obtain our Niu family's unique cattle breeding technology, so that the quality of their cattle in Fengjia Ranch can be improved and become the best cattle!" Wouldn't this be even more detrimental to our Niu family? Why did you agree to this marriage?Mrs. Niu suddenly had an epiphany and said in amazement: Are you thinking of using those three good stallions to improve the horses in our ranch?But, even so, she shouldn't sell her daughter's lifelong happiness! At this point, she no longer blames her husband for his actions, but when she thinks about her daughter's future, as a mother, she still can't let go. Mr. Niu patted Mrs. Niu's hand, and sighed earnestly: I really want to borrow those three good stallions to improve the horses in our ranch, but that's not the real reason for my marriage proposal. why? Madame!If you think about it carefully, we are all old, but there are only three helpless daughters in our family.One day, when we leave, who will be in charge of the family and guard the property of the Niu family and the happiness of the three daughters for the rest of their lives? Mrs. Niu didn't expect this level. Master Niu continued to analyze the pros and cons: Don't talk about anything else, just talking about those relatives of the Niu family who are coveting our family property is enough for our daughters, outside!The ranches that have sprung up in recent years also want to use marriage to carve up our Niu family. These two threats alone are beyond the reach of the girls, let alone the Feng family ranch that is eyeing up in the north. master Take it easy and hear me out.Mr. Niu shook Mrs. Niu's cold hand. Under such a situation of internal and external troubles, if he wanted to keep the Niu family, he had to find a strong backer.That young man Feng Tingjie is the strongest backer. As long as he becomes in-laws with our family, no one will move the Niu family, and our Niu family will be able to keep it. But Fengjia Ranch is the one who wants to eat our Niujia the most!Wouldn't marrying your daughter to the Feng family send sheep to the tiger's mouth? This marriage is very likely to cause the Niu family to be taken over by the Feng family, but at least it can prevent the Niu family from being divided up, and we can only choose the lesser of two evils.That's why he said it was a last resort. This is the reality, and Mrs. Niu can only accept her fate.But what if that Feng Tingjie abused our daughter? Speaking of this, the old man Niu showed a rare smile in recent days: Ma'am!Our three daughters are all like you, no matter how shrewd and capable Feng Tingjie is, he is still a young man. Think about it, which man doesn't love beauties? After my husband mentioned this, Mrs. Niu finally smiled with relief: I hate it, the master made fun of others, so I won’t come anymore The old husband and wife flirted together again, loving each other as before. However, Mrs. Niu was really relieved. Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by the beauty pass, her husband is, and that Feng Tingjie is no exception. Niu Ru and his wife summoned their three beloved daughters to their knees, looking at their three precious daughters who were born on the same day in the same year, Mrs. Niu was very distressed, but she had no choice but to finally mention the marriage of the Feng family .Your father has already promised this marriage, and the Feng family's wedding team will arrive at our family's house in a month or so. Qiaoxin, Qiaoyan, Qiaoling, who of you wants to marry Feng Tingjie? I do not want!The eldest daughter Niu Qiaoxin and the second daughter Niu Qiaoyan refused to marry almost in unison. My third daughter, Niu Qiaoling, is also refusing to marry, but she is slower than the two older sisters as she is naturally gentle. The most unfortunate thing is that she just spoke up, and Mrs. Niu made a decision a little faster than her: since both Qiaoxin and Qiaoyan understand that they refused to marry, it means that Qiaoling has left the court. Niu Qiaoxin and Niu Qiaoyan immediately echoed Mrs. Niu, and they rushed forward, drowning Niu Qiaoling's voice with an astonishing volume. Great, Qiaoling, congratulations!I didn't expect that the first of the three of us sisters to leave the cabinet is you, the younger sister. We two sisters will definitely prepare a dowry for you, dress you up beautifully, and make your brother-in-law fascinated by you.Um!Just do what you say, let's go and arrange the dowry for Qiaoling.The two sisters almost forced Mrs. Niu out of the hall, so as not to cause trouble. Mrs. Niu was also happy to go with the flow, and didn't want to stay and face the resentful eyes of her youngest daughter. After Mrs. Niu, Niu Qiaoxin, and Niu Qiaoyan escaped from the waiting room like a gust of wind, Niu Qiaoling, who is naturally slow, slowly opened her mouth and said: "Mother, please wait a moment. In fact, I have half-spoken. I can't even look at Mrs. Niu's shadow. Niu Qiaoling had no choice but to turn to Master Niu Niu Ru who was still in the lobby to express his heart.father, daughter Unexpectedly, she just turned around and started talking again, Niu Ru immediately said: "My dear girl, you can just wait for your release from the court with peace of mind."Your father and mother will help you organize all the dowry outfits, so that you can come out of the pavilion in style.In the end, he laughed exaggeratedly and loudly, that's great, our Niufu is finally going to have a happy event, congratulations!congratulations!People will run away amidst a sentence of gratification and congratulations. Dad, please wait a moment, I, Niu Qiaoling, was half a beat too late. When I made my sound, Master Niu had disappeared.Niu Qiaoling, who was left alone in the hall, was stunned for a long time, then sighed slowly, and muttered to himself: I don't want to marry that Feng Tingjie either! However, it was only now that I made it clear that I thought it was too late, and the matter was a foregone conclusion. Alas!She was very angry with herself, why she was born slower than others. Talk slowly, walk slowly, move slowly, react slowly, and even eat slowly. Her close maid Susu often teased her, saying that she was definitely slower than others in the womb, that's why she outperformed her two sisters and became the last born among the three sisters. Just now, father and mother mentioned to the three sisters about their marriage with the rival Beifeng family. She, like the two sisters, did not want to marry. However, her innate slow motion made her refuse more slowly than the two sisters. Parents thought she was going to marry that Feng Tingjie. This is how to do? It seems that the marriage is a foregone conclusion, and she must marry that terrifying son of feud, Feng Tingjie. When Susu comes back from burning incense in the temple and finds out about it, she will definitely laugh at her to death. Wow ha ha ha ha!Niu Qiaoling hit the mark. When Su Su came back from burning incense in the temple, when she heard about her master's marriage, she really didn't sympathize with her master's misfortune. And she didn't wait for the master to finish the story, and she said with a foretelling prophet: Actually, Miss Qiaoling, you were also going to refuse the marriage, but you must have moved too slowly, and the eldest lady and the second lady refused first. So Master and Madam thought you agreed to this marriage, right?Ah ha ha!Laughed me to death, I knew it would be too difficult for such a gentle lady not to happen, haha Although Niu Qiaoling knew that Susu would laugh at her to death, she never thought that Susu would not sympathize with her misfortune at all. If you don't want to marry that Feng Tingjie, it's fine if you don't help me find a way, but you're still gloating? Hearing what the master said, Su Su finally suppressed her smile, sighed loudly and said: "I said Miss!"It's not that Su Su doesn't help you find a way, but that I can't help you! This is simply your excuse.Niu Qiaoling tried very hard to refute immediately although he was still half a beat behind. Susu knows her master's personality well, although she is easy to talk and rarely gets angry, but if she plays a bully temper, it will make people go around endlessly, so she dare not explain lightly: "Okay then!"Let me tell you, if you want to regret your marriage, there are only two options.One is crying, making trouble, and hanging himself.But according to experience, when the young lady cries, she is also slow, and even the speed of tears falling is slower than human beings; on the contrary, the eldest lady and the second lady cry with pear blossoms and rain, flooding.Miss, think about it, if you refuse, you will become the eldest lady, and the second lady may leave the cabinet. The three of you will compete in crying, first of all, who will cry more and cry harder, and you will definitely be the eldest lady, the second lady. Comparing Miss, the way they cry must look sadder than you, more deadly than you, right? In fact, Niu Qiaoling could only nod slowly. Susu went on to analyze like a cannonball: the next one is trouble.In terms of volume and speaking speed, the eldest lady and the second lady are both louder and faster than you. Once the momentum is compared, you are no longer compared to the eldest lady and the second lady, right? It was also true, Niu Qiaoling could only nod slowly again. Susu's mouth was flying to the next level: Speaking of hanging himself!The movements of the eldest lady and the second lady are fast and ruthless. They are very thrilling and shocking when they hit a pillar or hang themselves, which is enough to scare the master and wife.On the other hand, miss, you are slow, bumping into the pillars, I am afraid that you are about to start running in the direction of the pillars, but the master and madam find out and stop you; hang yourself!I'm afraid the master and madam found out and rescued him before he put his neck on the rope.So in the end, it's definitely not going to work, is it?Susu continued to speak freely: with the methods of crying, making trouble, and hanging herself, the young lady will definitely not be able to compete with the eldest and second misses, so there is only another way to escape marriage. That Niu Qiaoling was overjoyed and wanted to say that this method would definitely work, but Susu threw a big basin of cold water on her: Even if the young lady and the second young lady are as agile, it would be very difficult for them to escape marriage, let alone you, young lady. .According to Miss Yi's slow motion, the Master and Madam must have discovered you and brought you back before you escaped from the gate of Niu's house.It's a trivial matter, and it's a small matter if the lady is still out of line. The worst thing is, if the news of the lady's escape from marriage reaches the ears of Feng Tingjie, he will definitely hold a grudge. After the lady is married, life will definitely be even worse better off. So what to do?Niu Qiaoling was very anxious, but her gentle tone greatly reduced her anxiety. Susu saw it in her eyes, and sighed secretly in her heart. Anyway, the lady's slow motion can't be changed, so what if I say it?So the best way is for you, Miss, to resign to your fate and marry Feng Tingjie obediently. But the Feng family and our Niu family have been against each other for generations, and that Feng Tingjie is rumored to be a very terrifying man. Everyone said that there is a big problem with him proposing marriage to us. What if I get married and be bullied by him? manage? calm down!Susu will marry the young lady to the Feng family, and will not let anyone in the Feng family touch the young lady.Although Su Su loves to bully her master since she was a child, she values ​​love, righteousness and loyalty. When Niu Qiaoling heard this, he was immediately relieved, and with a smile on his face, he confirmed again and again: Do you want to accompany me out of the cabinet? Of course!Otherwise, if you are not familiar with the place, who will serve and accompany the lady? Susu, I knew you were the best for me.As long as I have you and Xiaoguai to accompany me out of the pavilion, I will not be afraid.Niu Qiaoling hugged Susu tightly and said excitedly. Xiaoguai also wants to marry?Su Su screamed in a strange voice. Yes!It is my pet, of course it will come out of the cabinet with me, otherwise who will take care of it in the future? Also, except for the young lady, I am afraid that no one will take care of that freak.
