"Supposedly, in the future, I can't guarantee that I won't have this heart......"

Ji Qingchen ate tea and said indifferently.

Doesn't it cost money to open a academy? Wouldn't it be a loss to do business in Nanyang?

In case she can't turn over her hands, looking at the huge family business at the head of the Chen family's eight outlines, and looking at Chen Hong's concubine who is easy to bully, she may be tempted.

Whether she will bully that child like Lou Yun bullied her, she really doesn't know this certainty.

"Chen Gang was first and foremost reluctant to let Chen Wenchang marry the owner of the fang, why didn't he change to a child of the Chen family to go to Tangfang to ask for relatives earlier?"

Lao Siniang pondered. He was so embarrassed at Meihuatai the day before yesterday, obviously ignoring the faces of the two families.

Chen Hong was really hesitating in this family business.

"Who can he replace?"

Ji Qingchen pursed his lips and laughed, "It's not that he doesn't know who I had a marriage contract with before." ”

Lao Siniang was slightly stunned, and then she reacted.

In front of a capable person like Wang Shiqiang, the children of the Chen family who are courting marriage can't get into Ji Qingchen's eyes, and the Chen family is afraid that they won't even be able to enter the door of Tangfang.

"You wait and see, Chen Wenchang is not here for the days ......"

She pointed to the letter on the case, "Don't you see that Gongzi Wenchang also knows it?" Such a short letter has only two meanings. First, he wants to go back to Quanzhou and return immediately, so that I don't have to worry about marriage. Secondly, let me not see his uncle for a while? ”

“……”

Lao Siniang didn't know how to comfort for a while.

Fortunately, Ji Qingchen didn't need her to persuade her, she just stood up with a smile. called Rui Niang, Qiu Lan and others to come in to help her change her clothes and makeup, and prepared to go to the White Crane Pavilion to watch a hundred operas.

As the name suggests, Wanrui Garden is a house in the garden where flowers are in full bloom.

Sit in front of the mirror. Ji Qingchen raised his eyes and could see the half-moon window behind the mirror, and the window panel was removed, leaving only the fragmented green and yellow bamboo frames, as well as the flower shadows looking out of the garden on the frame.

Under the oblique white moonlight, it seems that the sound of nightshade petals can be heard.

Because of Chen Wenchang's letter, she was naturally still in a happy mood when she was dressing up, and she had the leisure to persuade Lao Siniang.

"You don't have to bother. Chen Hong didn't want Chen Wenchang to marry me. But he also never wanted me to marry someone other than the Chen family. Look at it, he is going to come to me again, just to say goodbye to his other sons and nephews. ”

"What?"

Li Qiulan covered her mouth in surprise. She has always ignored outside things, but this family affair has become like this, which is too surprising for a simple-minded person like her.

On the contrary, Xiao Ruiniang listened to it in her ears, and her little face immediately became unhappy. If it weren't for Ji's mother, Wa Niangzi and others, they wouldn't be there. Her face can be as dark and deep as Mother Ji's.

"Ah Yue, you can learn everything else, but don't learn from Mother Ji with this unpredictable face. I see that your mother is afraid of Mother Ji's face......"

Ji Qingchen smiled and pinched her face, making Xiao Ruiniang blush.

She combed her panyun hair bun and changed into a sleeved spring shirt with a silver red back for night sitting, which was a long red silk dress with a cardigan, and two ruby gorsehead hairpins used at noon were inserted in the bun.

"The gift for Zhang Kongmu has already been sent?"

Out of Wanrui Garden. The skirts of the women have long been stained with the remnants of the fragrance of flowers all the way.

She asked, and kept walking up the stone bridge outside the garden. After crossing the stream and walking towards the White Crane Pavilion, Lao Siniang hurriedly responded.

"Don't worry, the eldest lady will send it before the dinner table. Attached is a handwritten post from the eldest lady, thanking him for the past few months for the eldest lady's personal affairs. ”

Although Lao Siniang didn't see how Zhang Kongmu had protected the eldest lady for most of the year, as long as she saw that he had only been away for two days, Chen Hong jumped out to make trouble, and she also understood what the reason for the eldest lady's gift was.

Originally, the eldest lady didn't like this old scribe either.

"Big lady, Lord Zhang is now also following Lord Lou to settle in the Dongdumen Post House, but Lord Lou has gone to the Ji Mansion to eat, and he should have been in the past few days......"

Just as he heard this, Ji Qingchen suddenly stopped.

On the upstream side of the stream, a few red torches came out, and there were two Jifu guiding lanterns in front of them.

She saw a familiar figure clustered in the firelight.

In the night wind, he was still wearing the bright red cirrus mountain owl pattern robe, but the white jade belt around his waist was untied, and the wide robe fluttered in the wind like a scattered immortal.

The hat on his head was removed and replaced with a two-strand gold-threaded red brocade hairband tied with two white jade rings hanging from the tail.

She remembered that the other residence over there was Taxuezhai, but she didn't expect Lou Yun to live there.

His steps seemed to be abrupt, and he looked over to her.

There was a soft sound, and through the night wind and stream, she heard the crisp impact of the jade ring of his hairband.

She was twenty or thirty meters away, bent her sleeves and knees and bowed to Lou Yun from afar.

After coming back, she had already received the news from Huang Qilang from Shaoxing Mansion, and she could be considered to have figured it out.

Lou Yun didn't know about it.

He summoned Zhang Xueli to Shaoxing Mansion, probably to inquire about her Ji Qingchen's calculations on the dock, so that he could discuss an exchange with Wang Shiqiang.

He didn't mean to give Chen Hong a chance to jump out and make trouble with her.

“……”

Lou Yun saw Ji Qingchen's figure of Yan Na who was saluting from afar, and restrained his joy, he didn't go over to talk to her across the stream.

He just raised his hand in place and motioned for her to excuse herself.

Ji Er next to him was looking around looking for Zhao Deyuan's figure, so he didn't pay attention to who the female dependent who was surrounded by mother-in-law and girls on the other side of the stream.

On the contrary, it was Jun Mo, he only saw the ruby and gold hairpin in the night shining, and he suspected that it was the owner of Ji Fang.

He had already secretly reminded Lou Yun.

At this time, he watched quietly, Lou Yun watched Ji Qingchen Shi Li leave, a smile really bloomed on his lips, his whole body seemed to relax, and he was much gentler when he talked to Ji Er.

Jun Mo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief for him.

According to Ji Ergongzi's plan, he will not call the female dependents to cruise tomorrow, and arrange to call more than 20 kite flyers. Let the female guests watch the kite flying by the lake in the heart of the continent.

Because there are both men and women in the kite flying craftsmen, they don't need to be too shy about their male customers.

Ji Er, as the master, also had to take the stewards to the lake to arrange.

The men are in addition to fishing. The rest set up tents in the open space by the lake and arranged for the banquet.

They kicked the ball a few times and showed the ladies that they could fly kites themselves.

Although it was a seamless plan, Lou Yun could certainly find an opportunity to talk to Ji Qingchen in such an arrangement, but Ji Qingchen was willing to talk to him. Who knows?

Childe can't be the same as in the mountains, chasing her in broad daylight, so he has to explain it to her, right?

Fortunately, Lou Ye hurriedly came to report just now. said that Chen Wenchang really returned to Quanzhou City, and he also brought a message to the scribe Zhang in the post house, saying that the owner of Ji Fang gave him a generous gift of three boxes of sea pearls.

The gift also included an autographed letter to thank him for his hard work in the past six months.

It stands to reason. This is how Master Ji finally understood. Mr. Zhang, he was kind.

……

The White Crane Pavilion is not just a small pavilion, but a large corridor pavilion built on the bank of the stream.

Sitting inside, you can just watch the hundred operas on the stream.

And because the pavilion is wide enough to put up twenty-seven or eighteen seats, there is a twelve-fold jade plate screen in the middle, and the male and female guests sit at two ends, watching the actors outside set off fireworks and sing miscellaneous dramas from the porch window.

Lou Yun has a high official position, and of course he sits in the first row.

But he humbly thanked him, saying that he was not wearing an official robe. invited the elderly family heads in Mingzhou City to sit in front, and he mixed up with Ji Er.

Ji Er is the master. His eldest brother said that he wanted to take a break in the past few days to accompany his wife, so he asked him to take his two younger brothers and the housekeepers to arrange for the male guests.

Although the female guest is presided over by Zhao Delin, the usual chairs and tables are often used in the places where the little guys are used. The housekeepers and ladies around Zhao Delin inevitably have the time to find the second son of Ji.

So Ji Er sat aggrievedly on the edge of the pavilion, next to the steps out of the pavilion, so that people could come to find him.

"The county lord has arranged it?"

Lou Yun was sitting next to Ji Er, and he raised his eyes to look at the lady in charge who came to pay tribute.

Everyone knew that he was engaged to Zhao Deyuan, and of course it was natural to ask the last sentence, so Ji Er, who was inconvenient to ask and wanted to know, was full of gratitude, and listened happily.

The housekeeper said:

"Yes, sir. The county lord was placed in the east second place in the first row. ”

The county lord of Shunchang is the title of Zhengqipin, and he is a clan relative, so it is natural that he can sit in the first row among the female dependents. Of course, Lou Yun was not interested in knowing where Zhao Deyuan was sitting, and with a glance of his eyes, he could see the women's skirts of various colors of silk behind the screen near the window from a distance.

Ji Qingchen should be sitting in the middle rows.

Could it be that he can only watch the fireworks like this tonight, and he can't find a chance to speak at all?

Lou Yun thought about it for a long time, but Ji Er, this kid was too easy to be satisfied, he knew which row Zhao Deyuan was sitting in, so he drank a little wine happily, he still had time to look at women and men, stretched out his hand and pushed Lou Yun, and whispered:

"Oh, Chen Hong is here."

Lou Yun's half-closed eyelids lifted, and then he saw Chen Hong change into a new dark purple robe and hurried over.

He stood up with a smile, and his eyes glanced behind Chen Hong, and sure enough, there were two nephews of the Chen family.

"These two are ......"

He remained silent.

"My lord, this is Chen Wenlian, the nephew of the fourth room of the Xiaguan family, and Chen Wenji, the nephew of the ninth room."

Chen Hong had five sea boats, and he had already taken a master, two deputies and three nephews to the East China Sea.

That's what you need to be prepared for.

When he arrived in Mingzhou City, he single-handedly arranged the current situation for Lou Yun, forcing Tang Fang to advance and retreat in Mingzhou City, of course he was happy and admired.

He took them to meet Lou Yun first, to see which of them liked Lou Yun more, and he could also ask Lou Yun to help persuade the Ji family.

If she doesn't want to add a dowry, that's fine, but her husband can't be Chen Wenchang.

Of course, Lou Yun had expected such a result a long time ago.

So he remained silent, stretched out his hand to let the two Chen family nephews excuse themselves, and looked them up and down carefully.

Chen Wenji is too ugly, and Chen Wenlian is too fat.

In terms of appearance, even Wang Shiqiang is a hundred times stronger than them, and in terms of temperament, Chen Wenchang dumped them eight streets.

What's more, he Lou Yun?

He secretly let out a sigh of relief, invited Chen Hong to sit beside him, and slowly gossiped with him, of course, the two sons and nephews of the Chen family were standing behind Chen Hong's chair,

When the wine was over, it was late at night, and Lou Yun slept on the bed of Taxue Zhai. He had already laughed in his heart countless times.

Just because these two people dare to come and ask Ji Qingchen for marriage?

Not his opponent at all. (To be continued......) R1292
