Lu Jing was walking behind Brother Yun, listening to him and Nan Qi talking with a smile, when he saw Brother Yun stop suddenly, he was about to ask what's wrong, when he heard this voice unexpectedly.
He looked up at Matchmaker Zhao who was approaching him attentively, the smile on his face faded, he took a step forward to hold Brother Yun's hand, and handed the food box in the other hand to Nan Qi, who was in a hurry, told him not to worry about this side, and put the food on the table first.
Nan Qi took the food box, looked at Brother Yun worriedly, and then turned and went to the kitchen.
Brother Yun's expression was calm, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking. Just as Lu Jing wanted to lower his head and talk to him, Matchmaker Zhao came up to him.
"Boss Lu, I'm here to matchmaking for the brother-in-law of the treasurer Zhang's family in Wanning Buzhuang."
She first revealed the identity of the other party, and then sighed, "Speaking of which, Master Shu is also an infatuated person. The boss is very affectionate, and he will not marry unless you are a king. Shopkeeper Zhang and his wife do not agree. Naturally, their own brother-in-law wants him to be a real husband, but Master Shu does not change his affection. They still feel sorry for Master Shu after all. That's why I'm asking you to come and talk about marriage." After
she finished speaking, she stopped to see Lu Jing's reaction, based on her experience, when a man hears that such a beautiful woman must marry him, his face will be moved with pity, and he can't hide it. Live proudly.
But when she looked carefully, Lu Jing was unmoved, and she suddenly panicked. What she thought was a sure thing is now a little more uncertain. light up.
"Mrs. Li said that when the time comes, I will give Master Shu a hundred taels of dowry, cloth, clothes, jewelry, furniture and other dowry. Boss Lu, this is really a blessing for everyone. I don't know how many people will envy you by then."
Her rhetoric was to show off the generous dowry of the other party, and to stimulate Lu Jing's vanity. Men love face. She has been a matchmaker for so many years, and she has never seen a few men who have refused the blessing of Qi Ren, let alone the other party.
In her opinion, even a fool would know how to choose such a thing.
I have to say that Matchmaker Zhao is worthy of being a matchmaker for so many years, and she has a good grasp of the psychology of ordinary men. If it were another person, she would have happily accepted this marriage, but unfortunately, she met Lu Jing.
Lu Jing had a playful face on her face, "Is my brother-in-law from shopkeeper Zhang's family marrying me as a concubine?"
Brother Yun couldn't stand it anymore, and wanted to leave here, but Lu Jing held his hand and wouldn't let go.
Matchmaker Zhao quickly said: "Not a concubine, but a flat wife."
She glanced at Brother Yun, and pointed out: "Master Shu has such a good family background, such a rich dowry, being a flat wife is already wronging him "
In her opinion, this country boy just doesn't know the rules, the right husband doesn't help the husband take concubines, and some people say that the matchmaker is still slumped, so jealous, it's not an exaggeration to divorce him , if he is sensible, he should ask his wife to be a concubine.
Matchmaker Zhao thought that if she could call this marriage a real husband, the Zhang family's matchmaker would have to double the money.
She pretended to speak earnestly, "Lu Fulang, a young talent like Boss Lu should be matched with a talent like Master Shu. Although you entered the door early and took the title of wife, we must be self-aware."
The more she talked, the more she said, "If I were you, I would ask myself to be reduced to a concubine. Only a young man like Master Shu can bring more benefits to Boss Lu's business if he is a real husband. We are husbands and wives. How can you only think about yourself?"
Nan Qi was setting up meals in the yard, he was just worried that Lu Jing would be sad if he agreed to marry him, but it is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines , he is also not good at commenting on the boss's marriage.
Hearing that the matchmaker was so conscientious in persuading Brother Yun to ask himself to be a concubine, he couldn't bear it anymore, he turned his head and said angrily: "Well, you matchmaker, you actually persuaded the principal wife to ask to be a concubine? Concubine, your conscience has been eaten by dogs?"
After scolding Matchmaker Zhao, he hurriedly turned to Brother Yun, "Brother Yun, don't listen to her, she talks nonsense!"
He was afraid that Brother Yun would really listen to what the matchmaker said It's silly to go in, a wife and a concubine sound like a word, but in reality they are very different. The concubine's room is a servant, and only the wife's room is a serious master.
Before Brother Yun had time to say anything, Lu Jing had already opened his mouth heavily: "I don't care whether it's a flat wife or a concubine."
Matchmaker Zhao was startled, and was about to persuade her again, when Lu Jing continued with a sneer: " A matchmaker like you who has conscientiously persuaded the main wife to be a concubine will not be entertained by Yun Huazhai in the future, so get out."
Nan Qi has long disliked this matchmaker, and when he heard Lu Jing's words, he hurried to open the courtyard door and looked around. Look, I picked up the broom next to the wall.
Matchmaker Zhao didn't expect such an ending. She looked at Lu Jing in shock and bewilderment, and wanted to persuade her again, but Nan Qi kicked him out with a broom.
Nan Qi slammed the door shut, and finally felt a bad breath, and stood in front of the door with a broom holding her hand.
He was afraid that brother Yun would be upset, so he wanted to go up to comfort him, but saw Lu Jing leading him into the house, Nan Qi stopped, although he was ignorant about love affairs, he still understood in his heart that at this time You can't go up to bother.
Brother Yun obediently followed Lu Jing into the room. The bedding was already spread on the bed. Lu Jing sat him down on the bed, squatted in front of him, held his hand and looked up at him.
His hands were icy and cold, but Lu Jing's were very warm. Lu Jing covered his hands for him, and said softly, "Brother Yun is unhappy, hit me if you are unhappy, and blame me for making Brother Yun unhappy. "
As he spoke, he held Brother Yun's hand and slapped him on the face. Brother Yun quickly stopped his downward force, lowered his eyes and said, "How can you blame Brother Lu? Brother Lu is so good, naturally Many people like it."
Lu Jing continued: "Then Brother Yun is jealous?"
Brother Yun lowered his eyes and remained silent.
Of course he was jealous. The first time he saw the matchmaker, he wanted to drive her out of the house and prevent her from talking to Brother Lu.
The etiquette in the world teaches their younger brothers to be magnanimous, to smile and spread leaves for their husbands and concubines, but he can't do it, he just wants to monopolize Big Brother Lu.
Seeing Brother Yun's downcast eyes, Lu Jing couldn't bear to force him.
Brother Yun is too obedient, and only when he has made a fuss over him will he occasionally show a little temper, but people are not dough, how can they have no temper?
This world teaches the little brother to be obedient and obedient, but what he wants is an equal partner, not a model husband who puts himself first in everything.
Lu Jing looks strong and gentle, but he has never enjoyed love since he was a child, he will also worry about gains and losses, he will feel insecure, absolute obedience is not love, there is a desire for monopoly in love, if brother Yun endures everything, how can he be sure Brother Yun loves him?
Lu Jing gently promised: "I will only have Brother Yun in my life, doesn't Brother Yun think so?"
Then Brother Yun raised his eyes in shock, what did he hear? Big brother Lu is no longer a villager, he can make money, and he looks so good-looking, he actually occasionally thinks about whether big brother Lu will take a concubine in the future, but just imagining it makes him feel heartbroken, he can only comfort himself, be good Enjoy the life of the two of you now, and let's talk about the future.
But he didn't expect Big Brother Lu to make such a promise to himself suddenly. Although he always felt that Big Brother Lu was different, and occasionally imagined that the two of them would grow old together, what he saw and heard before made him unbelievable.
There are so many men in the world, except for those who are not allowed, how many of them live alone? Brother Yun's eyes turned red instantly, he cried and shook his head, "I want to, I also
want to be with only Brother Lu and no one else."
I know, this is the confidence that Brother Lu wants to give him.
Lu Jing got up and hugged him, and coaxed him softly: "Stop crying. If they dare to make trouble in front of you again, you can scold them back and drive them out. If you can't scold them, just ask me to know? You have to believe, I will stand firm forever. On your side."
Brother Yun felt as if he was falling into the clouds, and his whole body was lightly wrapped in Lu Jing's love, he turned his head and kissed Lu Jing's Adam's apple lightly, as if expressing his full love .
Lu Jing took a deep breath, pressed him between the quilts in the next moment, and kissed him deeply and deeply. For the first time, he let go of his restraint and responded greenly. Lu Jing felt that his response was even more fierce. Soon his breathing became chaotic.
Lu Jing let go of him and lowered her head to gently peck and kiss his face to let him breathe. When he recovered, she raised her body and looked at him. Their eyes reflected each other, full of love.
Brother Yun pushed Lu Jing, "If we don't go out to eat, Nan Qi and the others are going to starve to death, let's go."
Lu Jing stood up and helped him up, the two looked at each other and smiled, and went out holding hands.
Nan Qi was sitting at the table waiting boredly, with a worried face, he was happy again when he saw the two of them coming out holding hands sweetly, he got up and said with a smile: "I'm going to heat up the food, you sit down first. "
Brother Yun said: "I'll help you." He wanted to break away from Lu Jing's hand but was held back, and looked back at him suspiciously.
Lu Jing smiled at him before letting go. He couldn't join in the fun with the two of them, so he took advantage of this time to go to the store to reconcile the accounts.
Brother Yun was sweet in his heart and had a smile on his face. Nan Qi felt that the atmosphere between the two of them seemed to have changed, but he couldn't tell what had changed. Seeing that Lu Jing had left, he worriedly asked Brother Yun, "Yun Brother, Boss Lu doesn't know how to take concubines, right? He treats you so well, just like my father treats my mother."
Brother Yun said with a smile: "He won't."
It was the first time he heard Nan Qi mention his parents , and asked along the way: "Are your parents in a good relationship?"
Nan Qi nodded, "They are the most loving couple I have ever seen. My father only married my mother. When my mother gave birth to me No matter how difficult it is to have children after an injury, my father never took over a concubine for the sake of inheriting the family line. They have been married for so many years, and their relationship has always been very good." Only
then did Brother Yun understand where Nan Qi's pure and kind nature came from. Only when you grow up with love watered by love, will you be full of kindness to the world.
It's just that Nan Qi is living in another country now, and there may be a big change in the family... He wanted to ask, but he was afraid of poking his heart.
Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Nan Qi took the initiative to say: "They are the most charitable people. A few years ago, a lot of refugees came from the disaster next door. They gave porridge outside the city for half a month. I don't know how many people have been saved. , but good people are not rewarded..."
Nan Qi was sobbing at this point, he thought of his gentle and kind parents, but now they died tragically elsewhere, but he couldn't even keep the family business they left behind. Very useless.
Brother Yun put down the vegetables in his hand, stepped forward and put his arms around Nan Qi's shoulders, wanting to say something to comfort him, but he was afraid that he would hurt his heart by saying the wrong thing without knowing the cause and effect.
Zhou Yan in the house had heard their conversation a long time ago. He heard Nan Qi crying at this time, and he walked out with a cane. Nan Qi cried so sadly that he felt that his heart was also broken. In front of Nan Qi, she wanted to lower her head to coax him, but Nan Qi threw herself into his arms.
Zhou Yan's body froze, he felt that Nan Qi was shaking from crying, he hesitated and reached out to hug him.
Brother Yun didn't bother them anymore when he saw this, he quickly entered the room to heat up the food, and when the food was all hot and put on the table, Nan Qi finally calmed down.
His eyes and nose were red, and he apologized to brother Yun embarrassingly: "I couldn't help it, I left you to work alone." Brother Yun smiled and
said, "What is this, just warming up a few dishes."
Lu Jing They also came back after reconciling the accounts, and they sat down. Lu Jing raised his glass and said with a smile, "Congratulations on our successful opening and business is booming.
" After drinking tea, Nan Qi's own cup was filled with wine.
He didn't drink often before, and his face flushed after drinking a cup. Zhou Yan quickly poured him a cup of tea, and he felt better after pouring it down. When he looked up, Brother Yun was also pouring tea.
Lu Jing followed Brother Yun's back, smiled and said: "It's just a ceremony, take a sip to make sense, why are you two drinking it all so honestly? Forget it, next time I won't buy wine, just drink tea." Nan Qi and
Yun The brothers looked at each other and laughed.
Halfway through the meal, Nan Qi took the initiative to talk about himself with Lu Jing. He trusted them enough that he was not afraid that they would betray him.
"...That's how Zhou Yan and I came to Zhexi Town."
After hearing this, Lu Jing and Brother Yun glanced at each other. They didn't expect Nan Qi to experience such a thing.
Lu Jing murmured and said: "According to what you said, the fact that your parents were victimized is very suspicious. Maybe it's your uncle..."
He was afraid that Nan Qi would mind, so he didn't say it directly, but Nan Qi nodded and said: "Actually, Da... Zhou Yan and I also had doubts, but we couldn't protect ourselves at the time, and there was no way to find evidence."
Brother Yun said: "You are doing the right thing. If you keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about running out of firewood. Only by protecting yourself can you find a chance to bring them down."
Nan Qi has also recovered now, and no longer feels useless when he is on the tip of his horns, but his expression is still gloomy, he doesn't know how long it will take to avenge his parents, what's more, So, he didn't know if he could do this in his life.
They disclosed their identities, and Zhou Yan stopped pretending. He comforted Nan Qi and said, "Young Master, we can definitely avenge the Master and Madam. Don't be sad." He was clumsy and couldn't say
anything Pretty words to coax people, but Nan Qi nodded seriously, and replied: "We will."
Lu Jing said: "Don't be discouraged, if there is a chance, we will definitely help."
Brother Yun also said: "There must be a chance Yes, uncle and aunt love you the most, you must take good care of yourself."
Nan Qi nodded with tears in her eyes and said, "I see, thank you, Boss Lu, and Brother Yun."
Lu Jing smiled and said: "We recognize you as friends, and you don't need to call me the boss in private." Brother Yun and Nan Qi fell in love, so he also sincerely recognized them as friends.
Nan Qi nodded, "Understood, Big Brother Lu." There
was harmony in their side, but Zhang's house was in dire straits.
Matchmaker Zhao was kicked out by Nan Qi with a broom, her hair was messed up, and there were some grass on her body. Some people passed by in the alley, they all stayed away from her and pointed at her.
She was so angry that she asked herself when the matchmaker had suffered such shame and humiliation for so many years. She wanted to yell at her, but she was afraid of revealing the marriage that was not said today. In the end, she could only hold back her breath and went directly to Zhang's house.
The Zhang family was drinking tea after dinner. Knowing that Matchmaker Zhao was going to talk back, she found an excuse to send all the concubines and their children back, so there was only their main wife in the main house.
When Mrs. Li heard the news that Matchmaker Zhao was coming, she hurriedly asked her to invite her in, and said in her heart that Matchmaker Zhao was fast. In this case, they decided on a date together today and started the marriage earlier.
When Zhang Lingshu heard that the matchmaker had arrived, he wanted to go out and ask about the result. Although he felt sure, he couldn't help but want to hear the matchmaker say that Lu Jing had agreed to the marriage.
Shopkeeper Zhang also smiled and put down the teacup. It was already late today, and he planned to talk to Lu Jing about the album cooperation tomorrow.
Matchmaker Zhao walked into the main room under the expectant eyes of the whole family. She blessed herself, forced a smile, and was about to speak when Zhang Lingshu couldn't help asking.
"Did Lu Lang agree? Is he very happy?"
Li Shi pretended to berate him, "Shu'er, be more serious, the little brother who is about to marry is still so impatient."
Zhang Lingshu stuck out his tongue, "I'm just in a hurry."
Li couldn't help laughing and said, "I know you're in a hurry, I didn't eat a few bites of food just now."
She turned to Matchmaker Zhao and smiled, "Hurry up and give him a letter. But agreed?" Before Matchmaker Zhao could speak, she continued, "Have you agreed on when to come to propose marriage?"
Matchmaker Zhao saw that their family had never thought about the possibility that Lu Jing would refuse, and felt wronged and bitter. How did she know that Lu Jing didn't play cards according to common sense.
Looking at the beaming family, she stretched her head and shrunk her head with a knife, so she put aside the foreshadowing rhetoric she thought on the way, and said directly: "I am incompetent. Boss Lu didn't agree to the marriage. He said flat wife Whether it's a concubine, he doesn't want it."
It was her own idea to persuade Brother Yun to drop his wife into a concubine, and now she would not say anything about the marriage.
As soon as Matchmaker Zhao finished speaking, the room suddenly fell silent, and the happy expressions of the family seemed to freeze on their faces, which looked very funny. Matchmaker Zhao didn't dare to speak in such an atmosphere and held her breath.
Suddenly, Zhang Lingshu screamed: "Impossible, I am willing to be a flat wife, how dare he refuse? I have so much dowry, how could he refuse? Did that foxy girl make him refuse? Tell me, yes Isn't it?"
His expression was agitated, his eyes were red, and he didn't have the gentle appearance he usually pretended to be. Zhao Matchmaker was taken aback by him, and subconsciously told the truth: "Boss Lu himself refused, and his husband didn't say anything." "
Zhang Lingshu looked crazy, "I don't care! I want to marry him, I want to ask him for clarification!"
Seeing that he was talking about going out, Li hurriedly asked the servants outside to stop him, she was afraid Zhang Lingshu really went to make a big fuss in Yunhuazhai, so that everyone in the neighborhood knew about it. If so, he would become the laughing stock of the entire Zhexi Town tomorrow. Who would want to marry him then?
Seeing that Zhang Lingshu was making a lot of trouble, she asked her servants to take him back to the room to keep an eye on him and not allow anyone to let him out.
After arranging Zhang Lingshu, she turned around and looked at Matchmaker Zhao. Matchmaker Zhao was a bit lacking in confidence when she failed to handle the errand, but she also saw Zhang Lingshu go crazy on the spot. Seeing that Mrs. Li's expression was wrong, she quickly assured her: "Don't worry, Mrs. Li, I will Did nothing, saw nothing."
Seeing her going on the road, Mrs. Li asked her servants to fetch money, and gave Matchmaker Zhao a tael of silver as a hush money. She smiled and said, "Matchmaker Zhao must firmly remember what I just said.
" Nodding, followed the servants and left the main room.
As soon as Matchmaker Zhao left, shopkeeper Zhang smashed the teacup, "Okay! Very good! Just don't give me this face, do you want to be ignorant of flattery? I see how long you can be proud!
" Brothers were all sent out to be flat wives, but Lu Jing still didn't agree. In his opinion, Lu Jing deliberately declared war on him. He was so angry that he walked around the room twice, and he smashed everything he could. It was smashed.
Seeing that he was almost venting, Mrs. Li stepped forward and said: "Since he doesn't know how to flatter, then we can't let him ruin our current business. It's not too late. Master, let's write a letter and report to the master." Shopkeeper
Zhang Panting heavily, he raised his hand and said, "Go, go to the study."
Shi Li stepped forward to support him, and the two went to the study together.
Due to the close relationship between the owner and Yueyun Buhao, the goods they can get are the best and most complete, so ordinary competitors can't beat them, but if there is, the owner will say hello to Yueyun Buhao , stating that it will no longer ship to cloth merchants who cooperate with competitors.
In this area of Yueyun Cloth, which is a large cloth shop, the cloth merchants who walk all get their goods from Yueyun Cloth, so this cuts off the supply of goods, and the other party will soon be unable to open the store.
They are familiar with this kind of method, and all the shopkeepers under the master know it. Therefore, shopkeeper Zhang only needs to tell the boss the current situation and the name of the competitor's store, and the boss will send someone to do it. He just needs to wait.
Shopkeeper Zhang finished writing the letter in one go, and after sealing it, he called his servants: "Put this letter into the hands of the master, and leave immediately." The
servants took the envelope with both hands, bowed their heads and returned it.
Shopkeeper Zhang had a sneer on his face: Lu Jing, I think you can still dance for a few days. ...
