Chapter 30: For Yourself (For the Book Club Leader)
Seeing that the Qin family had packed up the box and said goodbye, Mrs. Cheng was a little stunned.
"Sister." Mrs. Wang's voice sounded behind her, and she turned out from behind the screen with footsteps, looking at Mrs. Cheng who was in a state of despair, "Aren't you really tempted?" ”
Mrs. Cheng smiled.
"How so." She said, "If only other girls were fine, but she, a noble person has self-knowledge, how could those people be for her." ”
Those people are really for her.
But it is impossible for Mrs. Wang to say this, people must always think more about themselves.
Mrs. Wang smiled a little weakly.
"Actually, Mrs. Cheng herself has taken a fancy to our seventeenth family." She said.
"Naturally, how good we are seventeen." Mrs. Cheng said.
"Then the matter is decided, Geng Ti has been exchanged, and I will go back and arrange for the rest to be done in a few days, marrying on the eleventh day, and celebrating the New Year in the lunar month." Mrs. Wang smiled and walked out with her feet raised.
"I'm so tired, let's rest and go." Mrs. Cheng said with concern.
"No, no, I'd better go back sooner." Mrs. Wang said with a smile.
"Go ahead, don't let Seventeen wait." Mrs. Cheng smiled and got up to see her off.
Mrs. Wang, who was walking out of the door, stumbled slightly, and reached out to hold the door frame.
Seventeen....
The family is still waiting, what can I do?
"Wu Niangzi, what should I do? I didn't expect the Cheng family to refuse, this, this is different from what Mrs. guessed. ”
Outside Cheng's house. The two servants asked anxiously.
The woman who was still holding the Geng Tie box in her hand also looked a little anxious.
"I wasn't even tempted," she said. Looking back at the gate of the Cheng family.
So there are always a lot of surprises when you're away from home.
"Shall we just go back like this?" Another servant asked.
"How?" Wu Niangzi immediately shook her head and said. "How can I go back if I haven't done anything?"
"Who are you looking for now?" The servants said, "Do you want to find Mrs. Cheng directly?" ”
At this point, the corner gate of the alley over there was a bustle, and a group of people walked out talking and laughing.
"Our color ball show here is very good-looking, Cao Ye, you haven't seen such a lively scene in the capital." Jin Ge'er said with a little pride, while not forgetting to add, "I'm in for a treat." ”
Steward Cao and the others smiled and were not polite.
"Okay, then let Brother Jin break the bank." They laughed.
"Brother Jin!"
The woman's voice came.
"But Cheng Niangzi's Jin Ge'er?"
Steward Cao, Jin Ge'er and the others were stunned. He looked at the women who were smiling, and the carriage behind them and the four guards on horseback.
"Are the mothers of the Qin family?" Steward Cao recognized the emblem of the carriage at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
When they met in a foreign country, the women of the Qin family breathed a sigh of relief, although these people in front of them did not recognize them, but they were very close in their hearts.
"Have you just arrived or have you met...," Steward Cao asked, pointing to the inner courtyard of the Cheng family.
"I've seen it." Wu Niangzi said, "I don't know what to do." ”
Steward Cao understood.
"Well, you're tired from a long journey, so let's find a tea shop and sit down while talking and resting. Luckily? He asked.
The women of the Wu family all smiled and bowed.
"Thank you very much."
"Brother Kim. Look," Steward Cao turned around and asked Brother Jin with a smile, "You have the best tea shop here."
"Come with me." Jin Ge'er said with his chest puffed.
Fan Jiayuanzi, the most famous restaurant in Jiangzhou Mansion, is quiet in the middle of the hustle, in addition to the two-story private room on the street, the garden in the backyard is also exquisitely arranged.
In the past, this kind of place, when the little guy didn't have a chance to step in, of course, if he could be the son's personal servant, maybe there was this possibility, but Jin Ge'er hadn't even thought about sitting in the son's personal servant before, he just didn't think that he would come in this kind of place, and he came in as the host of the treat.
Seeing people coming, the guy who was in charge of the carriage and horse ran over, nodded and greeted, and couldn't help but stare at the person in front of him when he saw it clearly.
"Hey, are you Brother Jin on the riverside behind the Cheng family?" The guy asked in surprise.
Brother Kim recognized him.
"Brother Bao." He laughed, reaching out and patting him on the shoulder, "It's been a long time." ”
"You, supposedly supposedly sold," the guy asked, looking at Brother Kim.
The clothes on this kid's body look inconspicuous, but as a fan of the family, the guy has a pair of fiery eyes, and he can tell at a glance that the texture is excellent, and it is the kind that only those rich men who come and go in the private room in the back garden wear at home.
Impossible, right?
"What, don't talk nonsense, quickly arrange the biggest and best private room for us." Jin Ge'er said.
The biggest and best private room!
"Brother Jin, you're crazy, do you know how much it costs..."The guy's jaw almost dropped, and he grabbed him and whispered.
Jin Ge'er took out a bag of money from his arms and was about to throw it to the man, and the acquaintance next to him, who was ready to greet him at first, but stopped when he heard the words of the chariot and horse man, and then stood up straight when he heard the private room that said that he wanted the biggest and best, and he didn't hesitate to stand up at this time.
"Guest officer, you come with me." He said in a loud voice, squeezed away the carriage and horses, and bowed down to please.
Seeing that Jin Ge'er went in with no less than twenty people hulala, the carriage and horse guys were so stupid outside the door that they almost forgot to catch the carriage.
Crazy...
Even if he doesn't eat, it will cost him a year's salary to enter the biggest and best private room, not to mention eating and drinking more or less, that money is only the salary he has earned all his life, and this is still what he can guarantee to be a partner in the Fan family for the rest of his life.
Will you be beaten and thrown out in a moment?
Ignoring the worries of the guys outside, Jin Ge'er and the others in the private room had already sat down, although Fan Jiayuan received all the rich people, but there were only a handful of such a large number of chartered tables within a year, and the whole garden was suddenly busy.
The shopkeeper personally came to entertain, and the cold dish fruit and tea were served first. Note: Bowls, plates, fruits, dishes, and waterdish bowls waiting for the summons. The prostitutes who sang before the feast were also being ordered to come with the harp in their arms. Busy but not chaotic, chaotic but not noisy.
Everything was arranged, the shopkeeper and the guest withdrew, the people in the house introduced each other to drink tea, accompanied by the singing of the prostitutes, and the Wu lady of the Qin family gave a salute to Cao.
"We were ordered by Mrs. Cheng to do something, but Mrs. Cheng refused, and I didn't know how to do it for a while. So ask Cao Ye for an idea. She got straight to the point.
"Something to do with my lady?" Steward Cao asked.
Wu Niangzi nodded.
"Before Mrs. came, I blessed that we don't need to trouble Mrs. Cheng, saying that if you find the parents of this family, you can make the decision, what do you think about now?" She said.
Steward Cao smiled and looked at Brother Jin.
"Then you're going to ask Brother Jin." He said.
Anyway, they are from the Zhou family, and Jin Ge'er is this lady's personal servant.
All eyes were on Brother Jin.
"What's the matter? Is someone bullying my wife? Jin Ge'er also asked unceremoniously.
"It's about the lady's family." Mrs. Wu did not hesitate to answer.
Jin Ge'er laughed heartily.
"This kind of trivial matter, you don't need to look for our lady." He said, waving his hand.
Bagatelle?
Sure enough, the question was right, and it was similar to the meaning of the lady.
"That" Mrs. Wu leaned forward a little more and asked a little more respectfully. "What else can we do?"
"You've found the eldest lady." Jin Ge'er picked up the tea bowl and said vaguely while eating, "I haven't looked for the second lady yet."
Second lady?
They don't know each other here. was directly stopped and refused by the wife in charge of the Cheng family, and I was afraid that it would take some effort to see another lady.
Mrs. Wu smiled and leaned over to give a slight salute.
"Then Brother Lao Jin'er bothered to pass on a word." She said.
Jin Ge'er's old acquaintance has been squatting at the door, and the guests who came no longer pay attention to it, and refused to leave the door after being scolded a few times with white eyes, lest he miss the good show to be staged, but as a result, he waited until Jin Ge'er and others came out, and he didn't see the scene of beating up the white food liar, but saw the shopkeeper personally sending it out, and the smile on his face was like a flower.
"Master, you are good to go, welcome to come back next time." The shopkeeper said with a smile, and gently stretched the corners of Brother Jin'er's flat clothes.
The group laughed and walked away, and the chariot and horse guys stood stunned and didn't come back to their senses.
"Which son-in-law is this, so generous..."
“… Yes, yes, you see the reward for me, it's enough for me for a month..."
The two prostitutes in the hall were laughing happily.
The reward for prostitutes is so much
The chariot man swallowed.
"Yes, whose son is this? Why haven't you noticed it before? It's really generous. The shopkeeper also sighed.
Whose son?
"It's not a boy at all." The chariot and horse guy couldn't help but say, "He, he's just a little guy in the Beicheng family!" ”
A little guy!
The eyes of those present widened.
"A little guy from the Cheng family?" The shopkeeper was surprised and said, "My God, they all say that Beicheng is rich, and it is so rich!" A small guy can throw a hundred shots without blinking! ”
Cheng Qiniang pedaled into the hall of Second Mrs. Cheng and brought a cold wind, and sat directly by the charcoal fire to warm her hands.
"Where's your sister?" Second Mrs. Cheng hurriedly looked out of the door, while picking up her hand stove and waiting to be stuffed for Cheng Jianniang.
But the door was empty, and only the servants and maids were scattered.
"She's a fool, so I don't go out with a fool." Cheng Qiniang said, looking unhappy.
"You kid! What shall I tell you? Second Mrs. Cheng frowned and said angrily, "She's a fool, that's why she wants you to coax, can't you even coax a fool?" ”
"She's not obedient at all." Cheng Qiniang argued, "I asked her to go east, but she wanted to go west..."
"Whoever made her obedient, you just follow her!" Second Mrs. Cheng stretched out her hand and nodded her forehead and said.
"I don't want to go around the stinky place to the south." Cheng Qiniang snorted and said, "She's a fool!" Doing weird things! ”
Second Mrs. Cheng no longer paid attention to her and hurriedly asked Cheng Jianniang.
"I walked in the alley to the south, and then I went to the river." The servant replied, "Don't worry, madam, we said that the Seventh Lady came back first because she was afraid of the cold, and she also left someone to accompany her." ”
Second Mrs. Cheng nodded.
"Take the stove and send it to her." She commanded again.
As he was talking, a servant woman ran in in a panic outside the door.
"Madame, ma'am."
"What's wrong again?" Second Lady Cheng frowned and said unhappily.
"Madam, Mrs., I just heard from the mother-in-law who was washing along the river that someone came to propose to Cheng Jianniang." The servant woman said hurriedly.
"What's so strange about this, the family affairs are all decided," Second Mrs. Cheng said casually.
"No, it's not the eldest lady's mother's family, it's someone from the capital, and I've taken a lot of Geng posts, more than one," the servant woman said hurriedly.
Second Lady Cheng hummed, and then came back to her senses and sat up straight suddenly.
"What did you say?" She asked.
The servant woman took a few steps forward.
“… I just came, and everyone outside the door saw it... It's the princess's mansion and the Qin family..."She whispered.
"Princess's Mansion!" Second Lady Cheng raised her voice and shouted, reaching out to grab the servant's arm. (To be continued......)
