Du Qi said, "Brother Wei, you and I are relatives, so I won't beat around the bush. Although you have expressed your opinion, I also approve of you. But I still want to see my future sister-in-law. "
"There are some things I want to ask her face to face."
"When I went south from Yanmen to Chang 'an, my father said that I have full authority to make decisions about the Du family in Chang' an, and I don't need to report to him. So when it comes to big brother's marriage, even if I'm younger, I should ask. "
"I hope Brother Wei can arrange this matter."
Du Qi said seriously, "Of course, if there's anything inappropriate, Brother Wei can tell me."
When it came to Wei Yuanchun, Du Qi couldn't meet him alone. It was easy to be criticized, and it was easy to arouse Wei Yuanchun's disgust. But with Wei Shuyu, the elder brother, everything was different.
This was the reason why Du Qi wanted to meet Wei Shuyu.
Wei Shuyu smiled and said, "This request of Erlang's is also reasonable. After all, some things will be easier to deal with. And I also believe that Erlang can represent the Du family. "
"Let's do it this way. We'll meet at your tea shop. I'll take my little sister there in the afternoon."
"At that time, we'll talk."
"If you have any questions, you can ask my little sister in front of me. If I can answer, I'll answer you. If I can't answer, I'll answer on her behalf. "
Wei Shuyu was very magnanimous and gave a direct answer.
Du Qi said, "That's the best."
Du Qi raised his wine cup and toasted Wei Shuyu, "Brother Wei, let me toast you."
"Please!"
After Du Qi finished speaking, he raised his head and drank it.
Wei Shuyu also returned the favor to Du Qi and drained the wine in one gulp. In fact, Wei Shuyu admired Du Qi in his heart. Whether it was Du Qi's diplomatic mission to the Turks, his talent, or Du Qi's business ability, they were all first-class.
All of these made Wei Shuyu admire him.
When he saw Du Qi, he also had many things to say. The two of them toasted each other and chatted. The atmosphere was harmonious.
After lunch, the two of them parted ways.
Du Qi went straight to the teahouse.
After arriving at the teahouse, Du Qi called Cai Youde over and asked him about the latest news about the teahouse, as well as the operations of the other shops. Du Qi rarely checked the accounts. It was mainly at the end of the year when he focused on checking the accounts. Usually, he didn't care about these things. Now that the weather was cold, the business of the down jacket shop was good. The other tea shops and bookstores were also doing well and there were no problems.
Time trickled by.
In the afternoon.
Because the weather had just passed, the sky was already a little dark.
When Du Qi was drinking tea in the private room on the second floor, an attendant came in to report that Wei Shuyu and Wei Yuanchun had arrived. Du Qi did not arrange for anyone to inform them, but went downstairs to welcome them personally.
After Wei Yuanchun married Du Qi, Wei Yuanchun was Du Qi's sister-in-law. Du Qi did his duty and brought Wei Shuyu and his sister to the second floor. After the guests and the host were seated, Du Qi's gaze fell on Wei Yuanchun.
Du Qi said: "Although sister-in-law has not married into the family yet, the imperial edict has been issued. This is imperative to be carried out, so I will call you sister-in-law. As for sister-in-law and big brother's marriage, I agree. I have some questions, I believe Brother Wei has already told sister-in-law. "
From the moment Wei Yuanchun entered the teahouse to seeing Du Qi and Du Qi welcoming them into the teahouse, she was very satisfied with Du Qi's attitude throughout the whole process. Because Du Qi was not arrogant and domineering at all. Instead, he was extremely humble.
This made Wei Yuanchun very satisfied.
Du Qi was the same.
Du Qi was also extremely honest and sincere.
Wei Yuanchun was also very satisfied with such a Du family. Moreover, she was quite impressed with Du Qi's method of meeting with her. Because Wei Shuyu was there, everything was easy to discuss.
Wei Yuanchun said: "I will not be courteous. I will address you the way my brother addresses you. Erlang, if you have any questions, there is no harm in asking. "
Du Qi said: "I have three questions."
Wei Yuanchun said: "Please speak!"
Du Qi said: "The first question, the Eastern Palace has sent you an order to sow discord between my father and son. What are you going to do about this after you marry my elder brother? "
Wei Yuanchun said: "What does the Eastern Palace have to do with me? I do not work for the Eastern Palace. Moreover, I have not taken a single copper coin from the Eastern Palace, so I will ignore the Eastern Palace's orders."
Du Qi said: "The second question, the Eastern Palace cannot order you to do anything, but let your father inform you to do things. How will you deal with your father's orders? "
Wei Yuanchun smiled slightly, appearing very calm.
This was something she had thought about long ago.
Before she came, she had already considered that Du Qi would ask.
Wei Yuanchun said: "Erlang, my father works for the Eastern Palace and has no choice but to ask me to do things. Erlang, please understand my father's sadness and helplessness. "
"However, since I have married into the Du family, I am a member of the Du family. Naturally, the Du family's honor is the most important. I will not ignore the Du family because of my father's orders. "
"Of course, if the Eastern Palace asks my father to give me an order, I cannot directly refuse."
"Otherwise, I am afraid there will be trouble."
Wei Yuanchun said: "My plan is to fool around and say that the matter was done, but it was not successful. This way, my father can report to the Crown Prince, and it will not affect my relationship with your brother. "
After hearing this, Du Qi smiled. Wei Yuanchun was a knowledgeable person.
She was wise and farsighted.
Du Qi continued: "Third question, if the Eastern Palace is defeated one day, what will you do?"
Wei Yuanchun said: "Erlang, if the Eastern Palace and the Duke of Qin's Residence fight, who knows who will win and who will lose. For me, marrying your brother is not a bad thing for the Du family, nor is it a bad thing for the Wei family. "
"Erlang, I cannot resolve the conflict between you and the Eastern Palace. However, if the Eastern Palace wins one day and wants to destroy the Du family, I can guarantee that the Du family will not die out. "
"Of course, if Duke of Qin wins, I hope that the Duke of Qin's Residence will spare the Wei family and give my father a chance. Therefore, under this premise, no matter what, I will not work for the Eastern Palace and sow discord between you and your father. "
"What I hope for is for the Du family to live in harmony and harmony."
Wei Yuanchun said: "This is my attitude."
"Good, good, good!"
Du Qi said the word 'good' three times in a row.
A look of approval appeared on his face. Perhaps his brother could not suppress this woman, Wei Yuanchun. However, Wei Yuanchun was intelligent and knew when to advance and retreat. This was the best.
Wei Yuanchun heard Du Qi's laughter and sighed in relief. For some reason, she felt some respect for Du Qi. Although Du Qi's words and actions seemed humble, they actually gave her great pressure.
This was the first time Wei Yuanchun had encountered such a situation. Even when facing her father, Wei Yuanchun did not feel this much pressure. Thus, Wei Yuanchun's evaluation of Du Qi went up another level.
Du Qi lived up to his reputation.
Wei Shuyu saw this and also sighed in relief.
If the two families could coexist peacefully through marriage, especially if Wei Yuanchun and Du Qu could be harmonious as husband and wife, that would be the best outcome.
Wei Shuyu dusted her clothes and said, "However, this matter needs to be kept a secret. If it gets out, the Eastern Palace will not let it go. After all, this is the Eastern Palace's plan. "
Du Qi smiled. "Of course."
As for this plan, it was actually Wei Zheng's plan. Du Qi did not say it, because there was no need to. It was enough that the matter had been resolved successfully.
