Chapter 84: The blind date is not an accident
In the past month or so, all kinds of things that happened in the Chen family have been kept secret from the old lady from the root, and now, the old lady is still a child and grandson because she has no time to come back and talk to her old woman because she shares her worries with the court. Usually when Lin Yunyi or Chen Wenxuan came over, the old lady would say something "to be considerate" to the two, and the two of them pretended to be something, and they could only smile when they heard this.
Chen Ji picked up some things that could be said and told the old lady, and somehow pulled the topic back to the previous thing about blind dates.
The old lady gave some answers to Chen Ji's questions, and Chen Ji sorted things out. Even during the period of their father and son's "trouble", the Xue family did not "avoid it", and when they came to the Chen family to visit the old lady, they did not say anything that could not be said. And from the old lady's words, Chen Ji could probably hear some things about the woman of the same age in the Xue family, and subconsciously it should be difficult for the two of them to touch any sparks.
And, to tell you the truth, but a seventeen-year-old girl, who is still in love, really wants to get married and have children, he still has a hurdle in his heart. After all, at this age, the most important thing should be to enjoy youth.
It is naturally impossible to say these heartfelt words to the old lady, and after a few more words, Chen Ji got up and left, and Chen Wenxuan came out together.
A lot of things have happened in the Chen family this year, as Chen Ji gave people a beating and lay down for a few days without waking up, his fortune has been declining all the way, and he is almost to the point of "breaking the house".
However, when this matter is investigated, it falls on her again. Chen Wenxuan felt guilty in her heart, especially when Chen Ji picked her up from the Tan family, because she was a "married girl", the Chen family and the Tan family had a lot of trouble. In the subsequent lawsuits, she didn't know exactly how much Chen Ji had done, but the final result was the best result she could get. Therefore, when Chen Ji asked her "if she is worried about being gossiped", she would have an answer.
After that, Chen Ji said that "the Chen family can afford to raise a Chen Wenxuan", and the tears in his eyes couldn't help it.
She Chen Wenxuan is now a twenty-two-year-old "old girl", after these things, she is only worried that because of her, she will drag down her father and younger brother, as for the rest, she will not think about it for the time being.
Then her father's whereabouts were unknown, and her younger brother was imprisoned, she took over the business assigned by her brother, while asking people everywhere to check and listen to the news, the invisible pressure that crushed her several times.
At this time, the guy who came from the south and heard that he was his brother's business partner, helped to take care of some business matters, and for a moment it was another delusion.
But it's just an illusion.
At this time, the father suddenly appeared with his younger brother, and the situation of the family returned to the way it was before, and of course, they cherished each other even more.
"Sister, I want to discuss something with you."
Walking out of the courtyard gate, under the osmanthus tree at the end of the corridor, Chen Ji suddenly stopped, turned around, and was never more serious.
Chen Wenxuan was thinking about things before, but she didn't pay attention to this stubble, and poked Chen Ji with a finger on her forehead, and then she said "ah", and she came back to her senses in surprise.
"What did you say?"
"I'll talk to you about something."
"Oh." Chen Wenxuan froze and said, "Say it, I'll listen." ”
"Hmm. Lao Chen is only 40 years old this year, and I feel that I can pluck him and add more people to our family. Chen Ji's eyelids lifted and bent down again.
"I used to be ignorant, and I always stopped them in this matter, and Aunt Lin has been in the door for many years, and she has been worried about me, so she doesn't have any biological children."
Chen Ji secretly glanced up at Chen Wenxuan, as if he wanted to see all the emotions on the other party's face clearly, if it weren't for Chen Wenxuan thinking about what Chen Ji said, he would probably glare back fiercely.
Chen Ji's voice paused slightly, Chen Wenxuan didn't give an answer immediately, and he continued to say earlier: "I've already mentioned it to him a few times in Lao Chen, and I'm not good at talking to Aunt Lin, so I want to ask my sister to probe your tone and see if you have this idea." If it is done, I will feel less guilty. My sister and I are both older, they need a child by their side, and grandmother needs a lively child by her side! ”
Chen Wenxuan thought in a daze, didn't she raise her hand and pull her fingers, and muttered: "Aunt Lin is only three ...... this year" Suddenly catching a glimpse of Chen Ji's gaze, Chen Wenxuan closed her mouth decisively, and said, "What you said is not unreasonable, I'll find an opportunity to talk to Aunt Lin."
Chen Ji bowed his head.
Chen Wenxuan sighed, walked closer, and glared at Chen Ji, "Are you playing any bad ideas again?" ”
"How can it?" Chen Ji curled his neck.
"I can remind you, no matter what the outcome of this matter is, you can't forget that you are the son of the Chen family."
Chen Ji nodded, and then saw that Chen Wenxuan didn't seem to be satisfied with his answer, and immediately straightened up, and said solemnly: "I know, I will definitely not forget my identity."
Chen Wenxuan was satisfied, "Hmm." That's just like the words. ”
The sister and brother reached an agreement and didn't say anything about it, and went out for a while to separate, Chen Wenxuan just reminded Chen Ji that "you can't mess around in the future", and by the way, Chen Ji found time to go to him to bring the account book, and she was relieved.
Chen Ji looked at her relaxed appearance, but it seemed like she had finally unloaded her burden.
Nodding and saying, "I'll let Xiao Ran go over and hug me when I go back."
……
The night gradually dragged down, Chen Ji moved a small chair to sit in the courtyard, and a small stove was placed in front of him, some boiling tea and warm wine, and some barbecue. Such a picture makes him feel like "vicissitudes of life".
Shen Qiu sat on the side, holding the account book and reading it to him.
Xiao Ran is responsible for boiling tea and warm wine.
Gui Chun was hard, fiddling with the barbecue stove alone in the downwind.
Chen Ji shook his chair, not to say a few words to Shen Qiu, most of them were vague places in the account books, and he couldn't be vague about the family business.
After getting the account book, Chen Ji got up leisurely and sighed: "In this way, there is only 180,000 taels of silver that can be used in the account."
During this time, in order to inquire about their father and son, he spent more than 30,000 taels of silver, and Chen Ji had to sigh, he was really bold.
But I don't feel anything, although the silver is equivalent to losing it in vain, but the family reunion is the best result. Silver, you can always earn it back.
Turning around, Chen Ji slapped his hands and rubbed his palms: "It seems that from tomorrow, I have to collect the debt."
Shen Qiu's face was bitter.
Chen Ji smiled, motioned to put down the account book, and asked Gui Chun instead: "Okay?"
Gui Chun didn't reply, he had already walked over, took it from Gui Chun's hand, and said, "Go and move the chair and tell you a story."
As soon as Xiao Ran heard a story, he was not afraid of smoke.
Chen Ji saw that the three of them were ready, and talked about the "Stone Record" that had not yet been printed on the market.
So under the suspicious gaze of three pairs of eyes, Chen Ji, the "pseudo-author", said everything about "The Stone Record" in his stomach.
At least the main story line is over.
Then Xiao Ran, who didn't eat charcoal-grilled food, asked Chen Ji vigorously: "Childe, Shiji is really yours?"
Chen Ji didn't want to answer, and he didn't believe it anyway.
Xiao Ran smiled and walked over to bring tea.
Chen Ji sighed, looked at Gui Chun, who was very poorly eaten, and said, "Starting tomorrow, you can help me find out if there is a guy in Qingzhou City who is very good at writing articles."
"Young master, what kind of article is the guy who writes it?" Gui Chun said vaguely.
Chen Ji made a request: "I either asked you to buy some Zhiwei earlier, or the guy who wrote those articles, preferably the one with a hopeless career and a depressed life." In short, it's the guy who gives the money and can write the article according to my will. ”
"Oh, young master, what are you doing with them?"
"Write an article. Young master, I have a lot of stories, and it's too much waste to just tell you about it, so it's a lot of money to find someone to compile it into a book and then hand it over to the bookstore for printing. Now that "The Story of Stones" is so hot, you don't need to say that you know it. ”
"It's "The Stone", and I plan to find someone to re-edit it, and then release a revised and collector's edition...... Take advantage of this heat and squeeze it clean. ”
Gui Chun swallowed the hot chicken wings, glared, and said, "Isn't this just like that column in our newspaper?"
"Well, almost, but the special issue of the newspaper hasn't improved yet, so let's expand the way."
"Then I'll go find someone tomorrow."
"Hmm. By the way, since we mentioned this newspaper and that column, we can give priority to those who have contributed to us. ”
"I see."
Chen Ji bowed his head, and didn't say anything about it in the future, concentrating on fiddling with the barbecue, but he didn't eat much, it was Gui Chun and Shen Qiu who kept talking.
Chen Ji occasionally laughed and scolded a few words, and all he responded to was the innocent eyes of the two little guys.
Chen Ji was helpless, and then Shen Qiu, "Young Master, are you really going to get married", and asked rhetorically, "Do you also want to get married?" ”
Shen Qiu immediately shook his head, "The wicked sue first" and said: "Young master, Gui Chun must have thought about it, and when we went to collect the accounts last time, he stared at the little girl in someone's shop without blinking."
"Shen Qiu, obviously looking at the green light in the two eyeballs of others."
"Hey, that's a good thing, I'm worried about what if you two like Tindye!"
The two brothers, who had come to their senses, looked at each other and buried themselves in eating.
On the side, Xiao Ran stomped his feet, called out to the young master, and said, "How can you say that." Turned around and ran away with a red face.
By the way, I also took away the tea from the old traces.
What a curse comes from the mouth.
In fact, this matter is Chen Ji "dark under the lamp", the girl arranged next to him, does not have the identity of a "room girl", what he said just now, the speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart, it must have hurt the little girl's heart.
Then again, you can't blame him, after all, he doesn't realize it at all.
Of course, because of this unintentional remark, Xiao Ran ignored him for a while, but later Chen Wenxuan mentioned him suddenly.
But that's another story.
……
It rained in the night, and Chen Ji fell asleep with difficulty for a long time. Early the next morning, Chen Wenxuan personally came over with the prepared outfit, woke him up, and personally combed his hair and dressed him, during which he fell asleep in a daze, and then woke up Chen Wenxuan with his ears twisted.
“…… Originally, this matter was not said until Dengzhou, you are good, and you don't want to go with us, so today my father took you to see the Xue family, and there is also an element of apology, you should pay attention to it, be more restrained, and don't break the etiquette. ”
Chen Ji didn't dare to raise his hand to rub his ears, so he had to move his facial muscles to pull his ears to relieve the pain just now.
Chen Wenxuan is really a starter.
In the bronze mirror, Chen Ji's expression was a little strange.
Chen Wenxuan couldn't help but laugh.
Finally tossed it, Chen Xiujie sent someone to call him, Chen Wenxuan gave a few more instructions, and then let him go.
In the front yard, Chen Xiujie greeted him, and the father and son went out one after the other, and the carriage was already waiting.
However, after not taking a few steps, he rode over from the other side of the street, got off the horse when he arrived, hugged his fist at Chen Xiujie, and said, "The last general, Fang Jingyu, has seen Lord Chen." Grandpa Guo sent me to invite your prince to come over. ”
Chen Xiujie looked back at Chen Ji, who shook his head and said he didn't know.
Chen Xiujie said: "I don't know what happened to Guogong?"
"I don't know, I just told Chen Gongzi to go over."
Chen Xiujie was helpless and said, "In this way, Chen Xiujie does not dare to delay." Turning his head, he glared at his son, "Go ahead." ”
Chen Ji said that he was innocent, took his life, and walked out from behind.
After Fang Jingyu signaled to Chen Xiujie, he whispered to Chen Ji, "You can't take the carriage, you will ride a horse to open the way, right?" ”
Chen Ji turned around and said to his father, "I'll lead the horse."
Fang Jingyu was helpless, "Forget it, get in the car, I'll go with you." ”
"And you horse?"
"I'll take it when I send you back."
Chen Xiujie nodded and called someone out.
Finally got into the carriage, Chen Ji put away his appearance and asked, "Do you have a clue about that matter?"
Fang Jingyu's face was serious: "Some eyebrows, when you get to the post station, your grandfather will talk to you in detail."
When I heard this tone, I wanted to ask the teacher to ask for sin.
Chen Ji had the urge to get out of the car.
Fang Jingyu changed the topic, looked at Chen Ji, and asked, "You are dressed like this, and you are going out early in the morning, are you going to visit your father-in-law?"
Chen Ji sighed, patted his chest and said: "Isn't it just to meet the old man and stir it up for you, what do you say." Anyway, if I lose my daughter-in-law, you have to pay me one. ”
Fang Jingyu's face was strange, he didn't know whether Chen Ji's words were true or false, so he resolutely shut up and didn't speak.
Chen Ji didn't bother to find a topic, and tried to recall all the details of what happened on the street at that time.
Fang Jingyu leaned back on the carriage and didn't know what he was thinking.
The hooves of the horses are ringing, and the wheels are rolling.
Chen Xiujie stood on the steps of the door, staring at it for a long time, and she didn't know where her thoughts fell.
What is this called?
Really, toss honest people.
