Chapter 659: Divergence
But the words of the shopkeeper Tian did not move the old housekeeper, he was still sitting there with a snort, he felt that the shopkeeper Tian was confused and had not yet recognized the essence of Gong Jian's family.
After thinking about it again and again, Shopkeeper Tian couldn't figure out what the servant of Gong Jian's family meant by what he said. Moreover, it was just a casual remark of the servant, and who knows if the man was attentive when he said it, and whether he meant it from the master's house?
Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Tian couldn't help but feel a headache, he didn't want to believe that Gong Jian's attitude towards their Tian Ji, or fundamentally, Gong Jian's determination to marry their young lady would change.
There was really no way, he could only look up and turn to the old housekeeper and Song Ma again, and looked at the two of them for help, hoping to get some breakthrough from the two of them.
Although the old butler had calmed down at this time, his mind did not turn a corner. So even though he was no longer so angry and indignant now, he didn't have any other thoughts. He is still waiting for the shopkeeper Tian to give him some evidence to prove that the Gong Jian family does not have the kind of thought he conceived in his heart just now. How could he solve the problem for the shopkeeper Tian.
And Mother Song was also at a loss, and she couldn't figure out what Gong Jian's attitude was now. In terms of the words described by this kind of little guy, I can't hear what Gong Jian's family has about Tian Ji. After all, Gong Jian's father was polite and enthusiastic from the beginning of entertaining this little guy, although he finally rejected the proposal made by Tian Ji, but people also thanked Tian Ji again and again for his kindness.
To say that it is like what the old housekeeper said, Gong Jian's family has two hearts and wants to reject Tian Ji, but looking at Gong Jian's father and the attitude of his servants, it is not like it, but if there are no other ideas, how can they refuse, Tian Ji Such a good proposal, this is obviously a good plan that can solve the biggest problem of their family.
Could it be that Gong Jian's family thinks that their son is now a showman, so their family should go to the restaurant to customize the banquet to celebrate, instead of accepting Tian Ji's kindness in vain. If that's the case, Song Ma feels that it is not so difficult to accept that the two sides communicate.
I didn't say it before, but now that Gong Jian has won Xiucai, his family's status has obviously improved a lot, so it is understandable to have his own right to speak, decide this matter, and do it in the way he wants.
So although she received the look of the shopkeeper Tian asking for help, Mother Song didn't say anything, she felt that it was too early to say anything, and she needed to look at Gong Jian's next move before they could make a judgment.
Shopkeeper Tian saw that the two didn't say anything, he just waved his hand helplessly, intending to let the little guy withdraw, and then the three of them carefully said what they thought in their hearts. But just as the little guy turned around and was about to leave, the shopkeeper Tian suddenly remembered another thing, temporarily let the little guy come back, and asked, "Did you just say that the Gong Jian family had a return gift, right?
When the little servant heard this question, he immediately replied: "Gong Jian's return gift is some wedding cakes. I heard the servant say that it was Gong Jian's mother and sister who made it together
。 Although the gift is very light, it also represents the heart of their family, hoping that everyone can be touched with their own joy. ”
The old butler had known about the return gift for a long time. When he heard the little girl's reply, he only thought that it was just an ordinary wedding cake, and he didn't ask in detail. Now he knows that these wedding cakes were actually made by Gong Jian's mother and sister, which is different from usual.
Now, the old housekeeper is a little shaken, after all, the return gift to his own family can be Gong Jian's mother and sister do it themselves, it can be seen that his family still attaches great importance to the return gift. It also means that they still attach great importance to Tian Ji.
A little anxious, the old housekeeper opened his mouth and asked beside him: "Then this gift, is it specially prepared for us Tian Ji, or is everyone like this?"
The little guy quickly replied: "The people who came to the door before were the same, they were all such wedding cakes, and everyone should be the same." Moreover, I saw that the servants of the palace family also took a lot of these wedding cakes and distributed them to the homes of the neighbors. ”
Hearing that the return gift his family received was not unique, the old housekeeper was depressed again, but he no longer asked.
Shopkeeper Tian motioned for Xiao Si to leave, and waited for Xiao Si to leave. He immediately smiled, turned to the old housekeeper and Mother Song and said, "Okay, you also understand this matter now." I'll just say that the old butler was too impatient. It's not what you think. ”
As soon as he heard the shopkeeper Tian say this, the old housekeeper was not happy at first, he stood up and retorted to him and said: "Why is it different, Lao Tian, you can tell me, what's the difference? ”
The old housekeeper's words made the shopkeeper Tian a little crying and laughing. He said that once the matter had something to do with the young lady, the old housekeeper would lose his normal heart here, and the usually so experienced and capable person would not be aware of it until now. The shopkeeper Tian didn't break it, and directly turned his head and asked Mother Song: "Mother Song, do you think the same way?"
Looking at her head, Mother Song only smiled slightly, she shook her head first, and then said: "I'm still a little unclear now, but I think I should observe Gong Jianjia's next movements again and then make a judgment." ”
Listening to Mother Song's answer, Shopkeeper Tian couldn't help but nod. Judging from Song Ma's cautious and cautious principles, such an answer is completely in line with her wishes.
Over there, the old butler, who was a little angry, couldn't get used to the relaxed attitude of the shopkeeper Tian, so he couldn't help but say: "I said Lao Tian, what do you think in your heart? Lest I have a bad time these days because of this incident. ”
Shopkeeper Tian knows the old housekeeper, and he said so, but also shows that if he doesn't let him understand today, it is estimated that the old housekeeper will indeed be like what he said, and it will not be easy in the next few days.
Thinking of it, the shopkeeper couldn't help but show a reassuring smile: "Old housekeeper, don't worry, when I make it clear, you won't have to worry about this matter, and you won't be uncomfortable." ”
