Chapter 169: The village chief stammered
Shen Zhaoyan knew in her heart, Zhong Liyue had never mentioned this matter to him, the meaning was already obvious, she didn't want anything to happen to her sister and Jinyan, why? If she cares about the glory and wealth of the Shen family, she should want her sister to marry into the Shen family as a concubine. Shen Zhaoyan was puzzled in his heart www.biquge.info he really couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't want to, he said first: "Your sister did mention this to me, I mean you came to tell me, does your sister know?" ”
Mingyue shook her head stupidly.
"You entered the house before your sister, why don't you even understand this rule? You went past your sister and asked me directly, do you know what you have done wrong? Shen Zhao said in a slightly aggravated tone.
Mingyue buried her head deeply, too frightened to say another word.
Shen Zhaoyan glanced at her, threw down the sentence "I will arrange this matter at a later date" and turned to leave.
Mingyue didn't know that if it weren't for her eldest sister to bear it, she would have run over directly to ask her master like this, I'm afraid she would have been beaten up a long time ago. If the eldest young master hadn't seen it for Zhong Liyue's sake, he wouldn't even say a word to her.
But she's in a hurry! Jiaoyue told her that before the family's house was completed, the people who came to the door to propose marriage from Shili and Eight Villages stepped on the threshold of their house, not to mention her, Jiaoyue and Jinyue's marriage was settled. It is estimated that her parents will mention the matter when she comes back this time, so she is so anxious that she has no choice but to make this decision. Knowing that the eldest sister had not forgotten her affairs, she had no resentment in her heart, and she believed that as long as the eldest sister was willing to help her speak, it would be fine.
Back at home, Ma asked Mingyue to hurry up and help greet the villagers for dinner. Today's family set up a flowing water banquet, although the villagers did not give gifts, but they all brought congratulatory gifts, or a chicken, or a duck, and no matter how bad they were, they also brought some home-made pickles, bacon and the like, which was more or less a little heart. Moreover, the money for this meal was made by Shen Zhaoyan, not their family, so Zhong Laosi and his wife were embarrassed to sit down to eat, and they were busy eating first with the villagers.
Then Mingde trotted over, congratulated Zhong Laosi and his wife and said goodbye, giving full play to the etiquette of the big family.
Not long after he left, the village chief followed, but after a while he returned. He was followed by three big men, two of whom carried a flat pole on their shoulders, and two cages on the flat pole, and the other shouted loudly: "The village chief has come with a big gift!" Zhong Laosi! Fourth! ”
When Zhong Laosi heard the sound, he hurriedly ran out of the courtyard to greet him. Ma and the others also went out to see the excitement.
"The village chief has sent twenty chickens to your family."
"This is our chicken!" Jiaoyue suddenly pointed to the cage and shouted.
Zhong Liyue pushed her and said angrily: "Nonsense! Our chickens have long since died. ”
"Eldest sister, I didn't lie to you!" Jiao Yue said to Zhong Liyue with a sincere face.
Zhong Liyue winked at her and didn't let her speak.
An unnatural look flashed across the village chief's face, and the strong man beside him pointed at Jiaoyue and said, "The little ones are from the family, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!" ”
"It is said that 'children's words are unscrupulous', and the village chief won't even let the villagers speak, right?" Zhong Liyue sneered.
Zhong Laosi went over and pulled a few of them to the courtyard, and said with a smile as he walked: "Let's go, eat, eat!" ”
The village chief took the shelf and put his hands behind his back, and walked out into the courtyard with a high spirit, and as he passed by them, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Jiaoyue, his eyes full of warning. Zhong Liyue pulled Jiaoyue behind her dissatisfied, and returned to the village chief with a fierce look.
If he doesn't want to give him face, then don't blame her for being rude!
The village chief is jealous of the people behind Zhong Liyue, if their Zhong family is polite to him, he can take a fight, but the big girl is a fierce girl, he doesn't dare to provoke. As long as it's okay to get by on face.
After they entered, Jiao Yue pouted aggrievedly and muttered unhappily: "Eldest sister, those chickens in our family were taken away by him." ”
"Isn't it sent back now? Give him some steps down, he has a face, and our family will have a better life in the village in the future, you know? Zhong Liyue touched Jiaoyue's head and coaxed in a good voice.
Jiao Yue pursed her lips and said unconvinced: "The village chief is most afraid of the eldest brother-in-law, we have the support of the eldest brother-in-law, so we don't have to be afraid of him!" ”
"Who?" Zhong Liyue was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "What are you shouting nonsense? Who's your eldest brother-in-law?! ”
"That beautiful young master!" Jiaoyue people winked at Zhong Liyue, "Isn't he our future brother-in-law?" ”
"Who told you that? Don't scream and hear it? Zhong Liyue pointed at her and said sternly.
"That's what the village chief said to his father and mother!" Jiao Yue said with an innocent face: "If it weren't for the eldest young master to marry you, how could he build a house for our family and give us so many big gifts last time?" The village chief said that you are out of business, and you still want to marry your daughter to the Shen family! Think beautifully, hum! ”
Zhong Liyue was stunned again, what did the village chief want to do? Marry your daughter to Shen Zhaoyan? Hehe, I'm really drunk. No wonder he pulled Shen Zhaoyan to speak, and sent the chickens back to them, it is estimated that Shen Zhaoyan did not agree to this, so he sent the chickens back to their family, and wanted to stammer their family and walk through the back door.
Sure enough, after the noon flowing water banquet dissipated, it was already when the sun was about to set, and the village chief still stayed with a dead face, urging Zhong Laosi and Ma to call Zhong Liyue into the house to talk, and at the same time to tell his own people to watch the wind and not allow others to come in and disturb them.
After entering the house, Zhong Laosi and Ma were embarrassed to speak and kept silent.
In the end, it was the village chief himself who couldn't help but say it, and after speaking, he glanced at Zhong Laosi and asked them to help him speak.
"Do you really think I made a concubine for Young Master Shen?" Zhong Liyue said with a frown.
Zhong Laosi and Ma Shi glanced at each other, and Ma Shi asked in a daze, "Isn't it?" ”
"Of course not, what's the matter?" Zhong Liyue flatly denied it.
"Then, why did the eldest young master of the Shen family help your family like this, and help your family like that? Even the painting of the walls has been arranged? By the way, I also gave ten acres of land, don't I want to accept you as a concubine, will you be so courteous? The village chief asked incredulously.
Zhong Laosi was also confused.
"It's so fast, who in the village doesn't have to build a house in at least three months?" The village chief added with three more fingers.
"Didn't I say that last time? He wronged Mingyue for burning down the kitchen of their house, so that the two of us sisters were wronged in the Shen Mansion, so he wanted to compensate us. Originally, he gave money, but I didn't ask for it, so he helped build the house. You think, it's about to be the wax moon, and if we don't build it at this time, how will our family spend the winter? Zhong Liyue had an attitude of not admitting it.
The husband and wife looked at each other,
"Dad, don't you want me to be someone else's concubine?" Zhong Liyue pursed her lips and asked with some discomfort in her heart.
"Hey, you can be a concubine for Young Master Shen, that's a blessing that you have cultivated for eight lifetimes, don't you want to? That's because your father thinks you're married to Ding Gui at most. The village chief mocked in a sour tone: "If it's like the Shen family, your father would like all four daughters to marry in as concubines!" ”
"It's not!" Zhong Laosi was so anxious that he hurriedly waved his hand, looked at Zhong Liyue with guilt, and explained: "I only see that the eldest young master is very good to our family, which shows that he is sincere to you, this affection is rare, with your background, he is willing to treat you like this, and your mother and I are very happy for you."
