"No, you can't!" Qiao Anping rushed in and said, "Dad, how can you catch Xue Qing away!" ”

"An'er, what kind of system are you yelling at?" Qiao Yuanzhi said with a stiff face, "Miss Li is our benefactor, and my father is helping her find Mr. Li, what's wrong!" ”

Xue Qing also whispered: "Qiao Anping......"

Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Qiao Anping: "Xueqing, don't speak!" This was the first time Qiao Anping spoke to her in a very strong tone, but it shocked Xue Qing. Feeling that his tone was a little harsh, he said softly: "Don't speak, leave everything to me." ”

Qiao Anping turned to Qiao Yuanzhi again: "Please also ask my father to take back his fate." ”

Qiao Yuanzhi glanced at Xue Qing and thought of her performance just now, so he said, "An'er, don't be wishful thinking. ”

Qiao Anping turned around, looked at Xue Qing, took her hand and said, "Xue Qing, you know my heart for you, from the first time I saw you, I knew that you were my greatest pursuit in this life." Will you marry me? ”

"I ......" Xue Qing wanted to refuse, but she didn't know how to speak.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Qiao An saluted Qiao Yuanzhi: "I still hope that my father will be fulfilled and let me marry Xue Qing." ”

Qiao Yuanzhi said angrily: "Qiao Anping, I think you are crazy. You are still not a descendant of my Qiao family! ”

Qiao Anping raised his eyes and looked at Qiao Yuanzhi, and said solemnly: "Father, as the only son of the Qiao family, I have never forgotten the responsibility I shoulder. However, I don't think that only marriage can revitalize my Qiao family. ”

"Are you hard-hearted?" Qiao Yuanzhi laughed angrily.

Qiao Anping said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Yes." ”

"Humph! Qiao Anping, if you don't have the surname Qiao, if you are not a descendant of my Qiao family, I don't bother to ask about your marriage. ”

Qiao Anping stood and stopped talking, and after a while, he leaned down and knelt down, kowtowed three times, and said, "Dad, the child is not filial." ”

"You have to think clearly, all the glory you have now is given by my Qiao family. Leaving Qiao's house, you are nothing. ”

Qiao Anping maintained a bowing posture: "The child understands. Then he got up.

Qiao Yuanzhi said again: "Since you want to get rid of the relationship with the Qiao family, then you should leave it clean and not take away any of the Qiao family." ”

"The child obeys."

At this time, Anxinru rushed out from behind the screen, came to Qiao Anping, and said, "An'er, don't be stupid. Don't make your father angry again, if you say a soft word, this matter will be over, and we will consider the rest in the long run. ”

Qiao Anping took two steps back, knelt down and kowtowed to Anxin Ruye three times: "Mother, please forgive the child for being unfilial." ”

"An'er ......" was as relieved as tears in the corners of her eyes, and she didn't know how to stop Qiao Anping.

Qiao Anping stood up, took off the jade crown on his head, took off his coat and jacket, and when there was only a single coat left, he said, "Please also ask my father to give the child a single coat to cover his body." ”

Qiao Yuanzhi was so angry with him that he couldn't say a word, just glared at him angrily. Anxinru burst into tears, knowing this, she helped her son say good things.

After Qiao Anping saluted his parents again, he pulled Xue Qing up: "Let's go." ”

Xue Qing simply packed up her things, gave Qiao Anping the cloth clothes she bought in the village last time to put on, and the two of them left Qiao's mansion.

After walking out of the section, Xue Qing took out the money bag, and there was only a string of copper coins and some broken silver left in it, which added up to less than five taels in total. Xue Qing gave all the money to Qiao Anping: "I only have these silver taels left, you hold on for a few days, and Master Qiao will figure it out in a few days...... You...... Don't follow me anymore......"

Qiao Anping grabbed her: "Then where are you going?" No matter what you plan to do in the future, you can't move an inch without money. It's all come to this point, Qiao Anping is no longer reserved, he stuffed the money back into Xue Qing's hand, and continued: "Don't be afraid, I have the craft, I can do some work." From now on, let me raise you. ”

"Qiao Anping, why are you ......?"

Qiao Anping stared at her eyes and said, "I'm not bitter, as long as you agree, don't reject me thousands of miles away in the future." Let me take care of you, okay? ”

"You ......" Xue Qing tilted her head, avoiding a direct look at him.

Qiao Anping held her face and forced her to look at herself: "I will work hard, I will give you a good life, the ancestors of my Qiao family are also self-made, so they have today's wealth." I, Jo Anping, will not be worse than anyone else. ”

"But I ......"

"Do you have any other scruples?"

"I ...... I could leave at any time......" Xue Qing turned her head again. One day, she will return to Wanjian Villa.

Qiao Anping took her hand and said, "If I am incompetent, you have a better choice, I won't stop you." ”

Xue Qing was helpless, raised her head and looked at him and said, "I don't deserve your ...... like this I ......"

"As long as you're around, what's worth it, don't go, okay?" 666 Literature Network

Xue Qing looked at Qiao Anping's sincere and pleading eyes, listened to his sincere words, and then thought of everything he had done for her, and couldn't say anything about refusal.

Seeing that she was a little shaken, Qiao Anping took advantage of the victory and pursued: "Believe me, okay?" ”

Xue Qing finally closed her eyes and nodded, "Hmm." ”

Qiao Anping pulled up Xueqing and searched the streets for a suitable livelihood.

"Hello Mr. Qiao!"

"It's been a long time since I've seen Gongzi Qiao!"

"Young Master Qiao, are you dressed like this today, do you have any fun new tricks?"

Qiao Anping turned around and looked at Xue Qing embarrassedly.

"Let's go to a town outside the city, or to a neighboring county." Xue Qing understands Qiao Anping's situation, in Jiangyang County, the capital of Yizhou, who doesn't know him Qiao Dashao, who dares to use him as a helper.

Because Qiao Anping's leg injury had not yet healed, Xue Qing took a ride on an ox cart back to the village from the city with some money, and came to Jianghan Town with Qiao Anping. When they arrived in the town, the two of them found a roadside snack shop to fill their stomachs, and found a simple inn to settle in. After Xue Qing also changed into men's clothes, the two went to find a livelihood.

Some miscellaneous goods and the like, Qiao Anping can't look down on him, and the other party can't look down on these two people who look very thin. The two of them were not discouraged, and they looked for it one by one.

Qiao Anping thinks that he is powerful, so he naturally wants to find a satisfactory one. Moreover, he had already prepared for the worst, and if he couldn't find a job after three days, he would go to the dart board to become a dart master. It's just that he doesn't want Xue Qing to be a girl mixed in a group of big men, so he is patient to find it.

Finally, on the third day, Qiao Anping saw a newly opened shop and needed to hire a shopkeeper and a buddy. Qiao Anping walked in and saw that this was a jewelry store, and he felt more confident.

The owner's surname is Xie, and he first considered Qiao Anping's bookkeeping and arithmetic, and Qiao An's average was handy. Then Xie Dongjia took out some jewelry and handed it to Qiao Anping for identification, Qiao Anping also spoke to the top, and the material, design, process, cost price and estimated selling price of each piece of jewelry can be talked about inseparably

Seeing that Xie Dongjia nodded with satisfaction, but he didn't make a decision for a long time, Qiao Anping said again: "Xie Dongjia, I also know a little about the design and construction of hairpin rings. ”

"Oh?" Xie Dongjia suddenly became interested and asked someone to bring a pen and paper.

I saw that Qiao Anping quickly drew two hairpin patterns, one simple and noble, and the other gorgeous but not gaudy.

Xie Dongjia once again showed a look of appreciation, and asked again, "You may make it." ”

"Yes...... But ......"

"I understand, you can write the material out and make it on your own."

Qiao Anping picked up the pen again and wrote down the required materials, Xie Dongjia looked at it, he was silent on the surface, but he secretly said in his heart: If you can really use these materials to make the hairpin on the picture, then this time you have found a treasure.

After waiting for about two hours, when it was about to get dark, Qiao Anping finally walked out with two hairpins.

Xie Dongjia took the hairpin and looked at it, this real thing is more wonderful than the picture drawn, the design and workmanship are excellent, and it can be sold for at least twenty taels of silver, but all the material costs listed by Qiao Anping add up to only five taels of silver.

Xie Dongjia immediately said with satisfaction: "Mr. Qiao, you think this is good. You can live in the backyard of the shop and eat your own food. I'll give you ten taels of silver a month, and I'll give you five cents of dividends according to the monthly profits. ”

"Very good, but I still have a reluctant request." Qiao Anping pointed to Xue Qing and said, "I hope that my little brother can also live in with him, he also knows how to keep accounts and arithmetic, and he can also help when he is busy." ”

Xie Dongjia glanced at Xue Qing, how could there be such a white and short man, and he understood in his heart. Presumably this is a pair of eloped men and women, otherwise with Qiao Anping's talent and the extravagance he unintentionally revealed, he would not be so downcast.

However, he was just a businessman and didn't care about this, so he smiled and said, "Of course, since this shop is taken care of by you, you are in charge of all the internal affairs." Including whether the shop wants to add people, it is up to you to decide. It's just that the monthly salary I pay is the same. In addition, I said in advance, if this shop is not profitable for three months in a row, then ......"

Black, it's so dark, what this means is, anyway, this shop will be responsible for you Qiao Anping, I don't care about anything, just collect money. If you Qiao Anping wants to recruit a buddy, then you can give the money yourself. If you can't help me make money, then you can fuck off.

People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. Although this attitude of the Xie owner made Qiao Anping's original good impression of him disappear immediately, he still smiled and said: "Please rest assured, I guarantee that the store will be profitable in the first month." ”

Xie Dongjia said again: "The goods in my shop are worth a lot of money." ”

Qiao Anping said: "Xie Dongjia, after you and I have made a contract, you can hand it over to the government for the record, and attach the inventory list of the shop." If there is any property damage to the shop, I am solely responsible. ”

"Good!" Xie Dongjia smiled with satisfaction, "Then Mr. Qiao, let's make a note." ”

That night, Qiao Anping and Xie Dongjia made a contract. The next day, Qiao Anping and Xueqing moved to live in the backyard of the shop, and also prepared for the opening of the shop. The opening of the shop is scheduled for March 16, two days later.

Qiao Anping wrote down a series of publicity plans for the opening with great interest, and then threw down the pen in frustration. This clever woman is difficult to cook without rice, although the decoration and goods are prepared by Xie Dong's family, and the other Xie Dong's family doesn't care.

If you want to find some people to support the scene on the opening day, you have to pay for it yourself. He and Xue Qing only had less than two taels of silver combined, and they had to be used to eat and drink for a month, how could this be good.

Just as Qiao Anping was frowning, two ingots of silver appeared in front of him, roughly estimated to be twenty taels. He saw Xue Qing standing in front of him with a smile on her face, holding a set of clothes in her hand.

Xue Qing had already resumed her women's clothes, and said with a smile: "I bought a set of clothes for the opening of the shopkeeper Qiao, I don't know if it fits?" ”

Qiao Anping stood up with a smile: "You bought it, it fits no matter what." ”
