Chapter 92: Mo Lan is everywhere
"It's not appropriate. β
Peng Qiangxi's face was slightly gloomy, "Lord Li is my future father-in-law, let me send a woman to my father-in-law?"
"The old woman knows that this request is a bit unreasonable, but-"
Mrs. Zheng said with a smile, "The old lady knows a thing or two about the situation of Lord Li's family. β
Peng Qiangxi's face showed a slight hint of impatience.
The old lady was secretly happy in her heart, but her face became more and more respectful.
"You know, I guess you know. The mother of Lord Li's family, that is, the mother of the third lady you want to marry, has passed away for many years, and now it is an aunt of Lord Li who is in charge of the Li family's backyard. β
The young man's upper eyelid was slightly pressed down, and the impatience in the eagle's eye became more and more obvious.
Naturally, he knew this.
The old lady said more and more unhurriedly, "I heard that this aunt is very favored by Lord Li, and she calls for wind and rain at home, but she doesn't treat this third lady very well. β
After a pause, the old lady made a good expression for you, "You send a beauty who knows cold and hot to the past, with a delicate and likable appearance, it must be able to win the favor of Master Li, and she will support the third miss, and the aunt in charge will not dare to bully the third miss at will." β
After speaking, the old lady looked at the young man with drooping eyelids and a smile.
Supporting Miss Three?
He hadn't even seen what the third lady looked like.
Peng Qiangxi's impatience was almost at its peak, if it weren't for the sake of the wine shop and Jiaojiao's return, he wouldn't have bothered to talk to this old woman.
He waved his hand, "Old lady, don't say much, it's inconvenient for me to get involved in my father-in-law's family affairs." β
Eagle eyes rolled, and glared at the old lady sharply, "But my father-in-law's business, I can ignore the beak or two, but-"
The thumb and forefinger are gently twisted, giving you an understanding look.
The old woman understood. β
Mrs. Zheng made an incomprehensible expression, glanced back, and the girl behind her immediately gave her an account book.
"You've also read the account book of our winery, I don't know what you think?"
Before Peng Qiangxi could speak, he heard someone giggling and laughing in the courtyard outside the door, just like last night's indulgence, with a delicate voice and a hooked tone.
Fat woman delicate.
The young man couldn't help but look out the window, but the lattice window was closed but strong, and the beauty didn't see it, only saw a pot of Molan on the windowsill, which was blooming brightly, just like the one last night.
"The old lady likes Mo Lan?"
Old Mrs. Zheng looked at the pot of flowers meaningfully, "Jiaojiao likes it, she brought it." β
"I want that! I want! I wantβ"
Jiaojiao's voice was like a sharp sword piercing through the rice paper of the lattice window, and the tail note was super long, like a fish hook, and it suddenly hooked the tip of the young man's heart.
Peng Qiangxi's heart fluttered, but his throat couldn't help but tighten.
The little boy seemed to be moved and in high spirits.
I lit incense three times last night, thinking it was hollowed out, but today I only heard her voice and my heart itched-
Peng Qiangxi was shocked and rejoiced.
Could it be that this fat woman is his cure?
Wei Wangchu prescribed so many prescriptions and incense before and after, and the effect was not impossible, but the effect was too slow, and he often couldn't help but be angry and wanted to kill.
Now, just the sound of a woman's coquettish smile made his heart flutter.
"Jiaojiao, what a second person. β
The old lady's eyelids drooped, as if she hadn't heard Peng Qiangxi's muttering, staring at her lean hand full of age spots, and sending the account book forward.
"Young Master Peng, I just said that Lord Li's business, you can put your beak or two?"
Peng Qiangxi didn't want to talk to her, so he nodded immediately, "Father-in-law, I can indeed say a few words." β
The old lady's dim old eyes suddenly showed some expectation, and she stared eagerly at the young man opposite.
"In this way, I beg you to tell me about my master's affairs - you see, this is the account book of our winery last year, and the profit is not bad. β
Peng Qiangxi looked at the account book and said with embarrassment: "You also know that Master Zheng committed a life lawsuitββ"
"Our lord is wronged-our Zheng family and the Zhao family have no grievances, why bother-"
Mrs. Zheng pushed the account book, "As long as you tell Lord Li the truth, the Zheng Family Wine Shop is willing to take out thirty percent every year to honor you and Lord Li." β
Thirty percent?
Peng Qiangxipi pulled the corners of his mouth with a smile.
"I heard from my father-in-law that Master Zheng had a bad quarrel with Master Zhao because of an aunt of Master Zhao, and I heard that the aunt hanged herself a while ago, and it makes sense for Master Zheng to be angry for her. β
Peng Qiangxi touched the account book, "Now the suspect is only Master Zheng." β
"It's all nonsense from the Zhao family! Master Zhao is nearly seventy years old, and his aunt can be our master's motherββ"
Old Mrs. Zheng made a weeping expression, "Our lord has been wronged! Our lord has never seen any aunt of the Zhao family!"
Peng Qiangxi knocked on the account book, "Whether it's innocent or not, you can't just say it with one mouth." β
The old lady wiped her tears with a handkerchief, as if she had made some big decision, gritted her teeth and said: "Young Master Peng, fifty percent, the Zheng family wine shop produces fifty percent every year, I just ask you to return our master's innocence, and return our Zheng family wine shop an innocence." β
Fifty percent?
It's okay to bargain, when you buy groceries.
The delicate voice outside the door became softer and softer, and it seemed to have gone away.
The restlessness in Peng Qiangxi's heart has not gone down.
"Old lady, you also know that the recent case in your winery is not only the Zhao family, not to mention that in this village, they have no money to sue, and they don't dare to sue the official, just say that in the town, there is something wrong with eating your wine, but they are all people with heads and faces - even if I fish out Master Zheng, the reputation of the Zheng family winery will be ruined, and without reputation, I am afraid that the annual profit will not be this number. β
Peng Qiangxi's hand was always on the ledger, the corners of his eyes were slanted, and he looked at Mrs. Zheng as if he was provocative.
"You, ββ? you?"
The old lady seemed to be surprised, and looked at the young man in front of her in disbelief.
"Old lady, whether it is a town or a township, your family's reputation will be ruined, if you still want to sell well, I'm afraid you will have to change a plaque. β
Old Lady Zheng looked at him in disbelief, "You want to change the name of the Zheng Family Winery?"
"Look at the old lady who is reluctant, her son and the winery. β
Peng Qiangxi snapped and slapped on the ledger, just wanting to quickly end this meaningless negotiation.
If it weren't for the Zheng family's wine recipe, a small wine shop would not be worth it for him to spend so much tongue.
The old lady's tears fell, "Without the wine shop, how will the Zheng family live in the future, and how will my grandson marry a daughter-in-law in the future...... Woowoo woo ......"
Peng Qiangxi suppressed the restlessness in his heart that was about to explode, dipped his fingers in tea, and wrote a string of numbers on the table.
"I won't let you suffer, Zheng Family Wine Workshop plus the recipe, I'll give you this number - at this time, I can give this number, I am looking at Jiaojiao's face, and it is not a disadvantage to you. β
Well?
"Jiaojiao?"
The old lady seemed to be a little confused.
"Jiaojiao is a widow, but I look good. β
This number is bought in the wine shop and Jiaojiao, both of which are indispensable.
Old Lady Zheng wiped her tears, took a deep breath, calmed down, and said, "Young Master Peng's meaning, the old lady understands." Your kindness, the old woman also appreciated. β
As soon as the conversation turned, the old lady's voice faded a lot.
"It's just that there are people who want to buy my Zhengjia Distillery these days - to be honest, quite a lot. β
With a bitter smile on the corner of her mouth, the old lady continued: "It's just that the old woman can't be the master, and she has to go to the prison to ask our master's opinion." β
There are a lot of people who want to buy Zhengjia Distillery? Peng Qiangxi naturally didn't believe it, but he just wanted to raise his value.
"Okay, I'll hear from you. β
Leaving a word, the young man blew out like a whirlwind.
"Where's Jiaojiao?"
"It seems to have gone to Fengshoin. β
The boy went straight to Fengxiang Temple.
The old lady came out of the side room, opened the window, and moved the pot of Mo Lan out.
Mrs. Zheng took a pill from her arms and swallowed it.
"The medicinal properties are so strong, and he can still maintain clarity so much, which is amazing, no wonder he took over the Peng family's business early at a young age. β
"He is already incompetent, he takes heavy drugs on weekdays, and he likes to indulge willfully - after a few times, he is afraid that it will be difficult for him to be a man in the future. β
The old lady turned to look at her, "Is the price he gave okay?"
"It's a little higher than expected, it seems that the Jiaojiao you found is a great help, an inferior - still quite valuable. β
Old Lady Zheng showed a hint of a smile.
The old lady also smiled, "Where is Jiaojiao? Or is our medicine in Mo Lan working, making a person who has not been able to walk for a long time stand up again, it can be said that it is a long drought and a rain, isn't it?"
The old lady's dim eyes rolled, and it was rare to show a trace of color.
"Stand for a few more days, and it's time for him to go down β and give him some more medicine. β
"Where's Jiaojiao?"
Peng Qiangxi searched all over Fengxiang Courtyard but couldn't find it, and the person was on the verge of rage.
Fugui said in fear: "Just now, Grandma Jiao, said yes, said that she was going to meet some guests with the young master of the Zheng family, and the little one went to inquire, it seems that it seems that the Feng family, someone from the Feng family came to visit......"
The Feng family?
Peng Qiangxi's eagle eyes were pressed into a triangle, "The old lady said that there are still people who want to buy the Zheng family winery, it turns out that she refers to the Feng family?"
Fugui nodded and said yes, "I have long heard that the Feng family is very curious about the Zheng family's recipe, they once wanted to crack it, but they never came up with the taste of the Zheng family's wine." β
Peng Qiangxi's eyes burned with anger, "Give a message to my father-in-law, except for me, no one can get Master Zheng out." β
Want to sell for a high price?
Greedy old thing, see if you want money or son!
......
"Apricot Kohap?"
Yaya took Zhou Ajiao and walked straight into Zhou Xing's west wing.
Yao Yao was half-lying on the big bed, looking at a book in her hand.
"Yaya, Gillian, you're here. β
Yao Yao put down the book in her hand and looked at the two girls and smiled softly.
Xiao Xing went to the back of the house to bathe Xiao Mang. β
Zhou Ajiao glanced at her notebook, "Are you watching "The Ups and Downs of Women"?"
Yao Yao nodded softly, "Xiao Xing's, she saw that it was inconvenient for me to pass the time." β
Zhou Ajiao glanced at the pile of books stacked at the bedside, most of them were stories of talented and beautiful women, but she chose a book of women heroes to read.
She chuckled and said: "Among these words, I also like this book "The Ups and Downs of Women", the Qiao Yue in it is really amazing, supporting the entire family's business that is about to decline as a woman, strategizing, and trampling many men under their feet. β
Yao Yao looked at her and smiled, "I just started to see it, and I haven't seen that yet." β
"Just starting out?"
Zhou Ajiao glanced at half of the messy book that had been flipped, "It's also fun in front, Qiaoyue deceives people everywhere, deceiving all the shrewd and powerful men on weekdays, and obeying her." β
The girl's bright eyes flashed slightly, "Did you see where the shopkeeper Xing was? They are so funny, I really want to make a pair of them." β
Yao Yao nodded and said, "Shopkeeper Xing is very interesting." β
Slurred speech?
Zhou Ajiaojiao smiled and forced, "Which man do you think Qiaoyue is the most compatible with?"
Yao Yao tilted her head and thought for a while, "I just started looking, but I haven't seen a few men yet. However, Qiaoyue has been let down by men, and probably won't trust every man easily. β
"That's what I said, you look slowly, let's go help Xiaoxing. β
Gently covering the door for her, Zhou Ajiao and Yaya walked through the alley and turned to the backyard.
"What's wrong? What did you find?"
Yaya approached Zhou Ajiao and asked softly.
Zhou Ajiao has never liked Yao Yao, and there must be something profound about suddenly saying so many words today.
"It's nothing to say anything, but I think Yao Yao is a bit unpredictable. β
Zhou Ajiao has always been delicate, "You and Xiaoxing can't read this book, I barely read it and read it roughly." β
Yaya nodded, the book was too big, the front was dull and tasteless, she really couldn't stand it.
She said she had just started reading it, but she had almost broken half of the book. β
Ya Ya also noticed that the first half of the book had obviously been yellowed and crumpled.
Moreover, it was only at the end of the book that Qiaoyue was told that Qiao Yue had been let down by a man. β
In other words, she had at least read it in its entirety. β
Bud nodded, "But what does that mean?"
Zhou Ajiao shook her head, "My brother said that it is difficult to read this book without a great strategist." β
Yao Yao has a big plan?
Ya Ya flipped through the story of the big dream and found that there was no character Yao Yao at all.
Although she is blind and blind, she still knows a few people, which shows that Yao Yao did not make much waves.
"What can she do with an orphan girl?"
Competing with Zhou Xing for a man, this is not a big plan, right?
Zhou Ajiao shook her head, "I don't know, I always feel that she is so open-minded, but she can look at Zhang Shan, it's strange." β
