Chapter 62: Feast Brothers

On the day of the wedding banquet, Liu Rumei changed from a wife to a concubine, which became a joke in the rich circle of Splendid City, especially her maiden cousin, who originally claimed to be the general of the Imperial Guard, but was actually a vulgar and scoundrel who made a big fuss about the wedding banquet.

Liu Rumei's original assumptions were all broken, and she didn't dare to go outside for a long time to show her face, so that Ran Qiunian also lived a comfortable life for a while.

"Brother Qiubai, you said before that after the affairs in the caravan are arranged, you will invite your good brothers to the mansion as guests, and now that it has been so long, I don't know what day you plan to come to the banquet?"

On this day, after Ran Qiunian and Ran Qiubai had lunch with their grandmother, they left side by side, and when they crossed a courtyard, Ran Qiunian suddenly remembered this stubble.

"Ahem, why did you suddenly remember this?"

Seeing Ran Qiunian's look of anticipation, Ran Qiubai immediately remembered the fact that she had promised her to bring her to know her brothers, and couldn't help but feel empty.

"Brother Qiubai, you won't go back on your word, will you?"

As soon as Ran Qiunian saw Ran Qiubai's wandering expression, he knew that he must regret agreeing to himself. If she hadn't remembered it today, she was afraid that she would have missed this opportunity, and her face suddenly had a little happiness.

"Has Brother Qiubai secretly posted to them, but didn't tell Nian'er?"

"How do you know ......" Ran Qiubai was startled, and the words blurted out gradually faded under Ran Qiunian's puffing eyes full of accusations.

He laughed dryly a few times, and seeing that Ran Qiunian's face was still not good, he hesitated for a while, but he couldn't help but open his mouth to test it.

"Nian'er, do you really want to go? It's all a bunch of rough people, and there's really nothing to see, so beware of crashing into you. Besides, if my grandmother knew about it, she wouldn't break my leg! ”

"Brother Qiubai promised Nian'er, and he can't break his word and get fat."

Ran Qiunian puffed out his cheeks, and seeing the hesitation on Ran Qiubai's face, he had an idea, and suddenly thought of a "good way".

"Then I don't have to be so particular about pretending to be a man?"

After Ran Qiunian finished speaking, without waiting for Ran Qiubai to react, he decided to cut first and then play: "It's decided, I'll come to talk to Brother Qiubai in detail tomorrow morning, and Nian'er will go back first." ”

"Nian'er, wait!"

Ran Qiubai stretched out his hand towards the place where Ran Qiunian left, but only grabbed a ball of air. After a while, she shook her head and smiled bitterly, this girl really has her.

Ran Qiubai shook his hand, turned around and went back to his yard.

Ren is how Ran Qiubai has a headache, or it is the day to feast his caravan brothers.

He booked several tables in the city's taverns, and rewarded the caravan men for eating and drinking outside. There were only three people who feasted in his courtyard.

"Shao Xian and Shu Lin are here, come in and sit, why don't you see Brother Ma?"

Ran Qiubai invited the two brothers into the courtyard, but he didn't see Ma Shouyi, who said that he would come together, Zhang Shaoxian explained with a smile: "His youngest daughter has a high fever this morning, and she can't come, ask me to bring you a letter, and I will make good compensation next time." ”

"Since that's the case, then we should also go to Brother Ma's house to see him later."

Ran Qiubai has always respected this big brother who has always taken care of them like a brother, and he couldn't help but worry when he heard this.

"You don't know his daughter-in-law temperament, I asked someone to see it in the morning, it's not a serious illness, it's that he's too nervous. However, it's good to check it out. ”

Zhang Shaoyi didn't take it seriously, but when he saw Ran Qiubai looking at him disapprovingly, he changed his tone, but he didn't think so in his heart.

Zhang Shulin next to him has always listened to his brother, looked at Ran Qiubai, and then looked at his cousin, nodding without any opinion.

"Alright, in that case, let's take a seat first."

Ran Qiubai didn't say anything more, and beckoned the two of them to go to the house. His eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of the figure coming in from the entrance of the courtyard, and he was suddenly choked by his own saliva.

"Brother Qiubai, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Shulin saw Ran Qiubai's face on the side, coughing desperately, and before he realized what was happening, he hurriedly stepped forward to check.

"That's it, cousin, why are you coughing so badly all of a sudden?"

A crisp young man's voice came from the gate of the courtyard, which attracted the attention of the Zhang brothers, and it was only at this time that Zhang Shulin realized that there was a person at the door.

The young man is about thirteen or fourteen years old, and his lips are red and his teeth are white, and at a glance, he knows that he is a pampered young master who has never suffered at home. Unlike Zhang Shulin's pure surprise and curiosity, Zhang Shaoxian looked at the little young master of this rich and noble family with some jealousy.

Some people are just lucky, as long as they are reincarnated, even if they are a straw bale waste, they can be windy and rainy, and ordinary people can't reach the height they can reach as soon as they are born, no matter how hard they try.

Although he hid the jealousy and disdain in his eyes well, Ran Qiunian recognized at a glance the man standing behind his Qiubai brother was Zhang Shaoxian, who had framed Qiubai's brother for colluding with foreigners in his previous life.

"Brother Qiubai, who is this?"

Zhang Shulin looked curiously at Ran Qiunian who walked in from the outside, in the end, he was also a young man who was not as weak as the crown, although he had a lot of experience in running a business, but the young man's heart was not wiped out, and he suddenly felt a little uneasy.

Ran Qiunian was attracted by his words, looking at this young man with a gentle and curious look, he naturally remembered who this person was.

For a bad thing to be done, in addition to the perpetrator and the victim, there is also an indispensable bystander. This Zhang Shulin looked gentle and harmless, but after that incident, he protected himself and avoided the Ran family who asked him to testify.

Very good, today's meal was not in vain, she was looking for a lot of people, and all of them were there.

"This is, this is ......"

Ran Qiubai came to his senses, pointed to Ran Qiunian, who was dressed as a teenager, and his teeth were a little sore, and he didn't know how to talk about it for a while. He hadn't seen anyone just now, and he had to think that this girl wasn't going to come over today.

"My name is Ran Lei, I am Brother Qiubai's cousin, I heard that my brother invited his good brothers to a banquet today, but I begged my brother for a long time before agreeing to introduce me to a few big brothers."

There was no need for Ran Qiubai to speak, Ran Qiunian had already taken the lead, and recited all the pretexts that had been prepared to the end.

"Yes, it's mine, cousin. Xiao Lei, haven't you always admired the brothers who have been doing business with me, this is Zhang Shaoxian, this is Zhang Shulin, both of them are cousins, and they are good brothers who have been traveling with me for many years. ”

Ran Qiubai coughed lightly, reacted, and helped Ran Qiunian fool his two brothers together, thinking that he would let Ran Qiunian mess around today, and then compensate his brothers in the future.

"Xiao Lei has seen the two eldest brothers. I heard that you are my brother's right-hand man, but today I saw it really extraordinary. ”

Ran Qiunian looked at the Zhang brothers with a smile and said meaningfully.

"It's a pity that Brother Ma didn't come today, otherwise you would have recognized all of them."

Ran Qiubai said so much, seeing that the Zhang brothers were not suspicious of Ran Qiunian's identity, they also relaxed a little.

Big Brother Ma? Ran Qiunian frowned secretly, this person had never heard of it, maybe he didn't follow Brother Qiubai to do business later. Anyway, in the incident that framed Qiubai's brother in her previous life, without this person's participation, then she didn't need to pay attention to this person.

"Don't say anything, don't say anything, what are you doing outside, hurry up and go inside and sit."

Ran Qiubai beckoned a few people to come into the house and sit down, and only then did he secretly wipe the sweat on his forehead when he couldn't see behind everyone, he was really tired.

"The young master doesn't look like someone who is interested in running a business, how can he want to listen to these stories? In fact, there is nothing fun in running a business, and the fatigue of running around is indispensable. ”

Zhang Shulin seemed to be very interested in Ran Qiunian, and he was not much older than Ran Qiunian, so after entering the table, he naturally got together with Ran Qiunian, who was closer to his age.

"You are my brother's brother, that is, my Ran Lei's brother, you don't have to call me little master, just call me Xiao Lei like my brother."

Ran Qiunian waved her hand, she wanted to break into the "enemy", if she didn't solve the sense of restraint caused by the identity gap, how could she talk from the Zhang brothers?

"It's because I've been detained in the house all the year round that I prefer to listen to stories from the outside, and when I take over the family's shop in the future, I will also form a caravan and run around outside like you."

Ran Qiubai and Zhang Shao drank a few glasses of wine first, and after chatting a few words, they turned their heads and saw Ran Qiunian and Zhang Shulin, who were chatting on the other side, and suddenly became two big, and quickly interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Why are you two talking so happy? Tell us about it. Shulin, Xiao Lei. ”

Ran Qiubai gave Ran Qiunian a look and asked her to pay attention to the distance, but Ran Qiunian pretended not to see it and looked away. Ran Qiubai's eyes when he looked at Zhang Shulin instantly became vigilant.

But he didn't know that his act of defending his sister made Zhang Shaoxian on the side look at it in his eyes and completely change his taste.

Zhang Shaoxian secretly hated in his heart, no matter how well this kid disguised himself on weekdays, he really looked down on them from the bottom of his heart, how could he not be used to seeing his younger brother and this little young master close?

The meal was finished under such an undercurrent, Ran Qiunian was already commensurate with the Zhang Shulin brothers, and he looked a little familiar at first sight, and even made an appointment to meet next time in front of Ran Qiubai.

Ran Qiubai's face suddenly stiffened a little, he just couldn't resist and didn't jump out to object, and went out of the courtyard with the Zhang brothers.

Originally, they said that they would go to Brother Ma's house together, but because of Ran Qiunian's behavior that made him confused, Ran Qiubai had no choice but to let the Zhang brothers take the first step and go later.

Zhang Shaoxian didn't show any expression on his face, said goodbye to Ran Qiubai with a smile, and walked out of the gate of Ran Mansion with his cousin who still had a few steps and three turns.

"What do you see, people are rich young masters, can we afford to climb with such an identity? It's just to treat you as a fresh fun, and I really think that the little master can treat you as a friend? ”

Zhang Shaoxian knocked on Zhang Shulin's head with hatred, and his tone was full of ridicule and jealousy.

"Brother, I don't think Xiao Lei is such a person."

Zhang Shulin explained in a whisper.
