Chapter 163: Rather than Broken Jade, Not Complete
Chapter 163 It is better to be a broken jade than a complete tile
A certain Hou Ye leisurely circled around Shang Ruonan and found that Shang Ruonan had a trace of hair on the top of his head that was not combed well. Only then did I find out that this girl is really small! Standing in front of her, I could actually see the top of her head.
Thinking of this, a certain marquis snorted and laughed, and said:
"Who said it's no good, if you don't have a young family master, how will my family's business continue? I'm still waiting for your new cloth! ”
Shang Ruonan knew that this guy was here for those cloths, and it seems that he used those cloths to make a big profit in Beijing! Hum! Shang Ruonan snorted indignantly.
Without waiting for Shang Ruonan to answer, Murong Hou turned around again, looked down at the broken jade that fell on the ground, and sighed:
"It's a pity. Originally, I thought that this piece of jade could be used to make a congratulatory gift for you, the young master, but now it seems that it still can't be used. ”
Shang Ruonan glared at him and said:
"Hou Ye's courtesy Ruonan received it. Ruonan was rescued by Hou Ye again. But Ruonan also understands, it is better to be a broken jade than a complete tile! It's mine, no one else can take it, it's not mine, and I won't snatch it. ”
Murong Hou Ye was stunned for a moment, and then laughed in a low voice:
"I don't even understand what I mean, but you can think it through! Don't worry, with the master here, you will definitely be able to protect your position as the head of the young family. For the cloth I wanted, I had to protect it for you. ”
"Dare to ask Hou Ye if he is here today..."
How could Shang Dongliang let his daughter be laughed at by the Hou Ye in front of everyone. Otherwise, it will fall into the tongue of people like the Lu clan again. hurriedly stepped forward to interrupt and wanted to ask.
But today, it seems that the business owner should not say a word! Because his every word was interrupted, there was no chance for him to say it all.
Kou Ziyu, who came with Murong Houye, looked around, but didn't see Shang Nianlan, and she was a little worried in her heart, I wonder if Shang Nianlan was also injured by this evil woman? Are you late? In a hurry, he turned around and asked Shang Ruonan, but he didn't pay attention, so he interrupted Master Shang's words again.
"Young family master, who is this woman who is going to beat you? Who is she bullying your family? ”
"The second room of the people's woman merchant Lu has seen the son."
Lu Shi stepped forward and saluted generously, but Kou Ziyu jumped back lightly and said:
"This kind of person has to stay away!"
Kou Ziyu's actions immediately made Shang Ruonan laugh. But Murong Qing stood beside Shang Ruonan and saw Shang Ruonan's smile, and was stunned for a moment, Shang Ruonan's smile was really beautiful!
Lu's face was red and white. That Kou Ziyu was in a trance and felt that he had interrupted Master Shang's words just now, which was not very polite. Only then did he turn around and salute the old lady of the merchant and the pillar of the businessman.
"I've seen Mrs. Shang, Mr. Shang."
"This is ......"
Old Madam Shang just heard them and knew that it was Hou Ye, but she didn't know who this was. Naturally, just ask. Shang Ruonan glared at Kou Ziyu, who was in the limelight, and turned to explain to his grandmother:
"Grandmother, this is the second son of the Hou Mansion in Zhenxi. It's the cousin of Murong Houye! ”
The old lady was startled, she was talking about Mrs. Hou or something just now, why did a Hou Ye and a Hou Gong come all of a sudden! This is not a guest received by a merchant with this status!
Don't be lazy! Old Madam Shang straightened her figure and saluted the second son of the Hou family again.
"The old man has seen the second son!"
"Old lady, you're welcome, Murong Marquis and I are here to congratulate the merchant Tian Ding, and Miss Shang Fourth has been promoted to the young master of the merchant. It's late, it's late! ”
"Thank you Master Hou, thank you Second Son! Would you like to sit at home? ”
The old lady wanted to invite the two nobles into the house. But Murong Qing shook his head, turned around and sat down on another chair next to the old lady who was sitting in the original, which was regarded as respecting the old lady and putting his position right. Road:
"Old lady, please take a seat, I just came over to see the matter of Miss Shangsi's promotion to the head of the family. I didn't expect to be a step too late. But I just met someone who was about to hurt the young master, so I'll stay and take a look. ”
"Don't say that, Childe, this matter is not over yet! Childe came from a large family, and he should know that every family has a rule. Even if we are businessmen, we don't have the rules to let a woman be the head of the house? ”
Shang Ruonan's face darkened, and he turned his face to look at the second uncle who was still shouting. Said lightly:
"Then tell me, where is the rule that this woman can't be the head of the house written? Second Master Shang is a person who runs on the street, and he also knows the law. I want to ask Second Master Shang, which law says that a woman cannot be the head of the house? ”
"You!"
Second Master Shang's face was swollen and red, and he couldn't answer this question, firstly, as far as he knew, there was no such rule on the fur, and secondly, he really didn't know if there was such a rule in the laws of this dynasty.
Second Master Shang was so blocked that he couldn't speak. Lu said:
"This woman's family, who shows up outside every day, and also gets acquainted with foreign men, this is no rules, this is ruining the reputation of the merchant girl!"
As soon as Lu's words came out, not only Shang Ruonan's face changed. The other people's faces also sank, and the Lu clan didn't even plan to close the door. People say that no matter how much trouble they make, this is a businessman, fighting for some money and profit, which is reasonable.
This is making a fuss about the reputation of the girl in other people's families, which is what a person who is a concubine should say? And he said it in front of the two newly arrived sons. Lu's stick is a person who swept a boat!
Sure enough, Kou Ziyu's face immediately darkened, and he said:
"You're a rule-go-getter. No one in the capital dared to say that the two of us had ruined the reputation of other girls, but you dare to say it! Do you mean that we are both responsible? We dare to be responsible, but do you dare to take responsibility for what you say? ”
Kou Ziyu pointed at Murong Qing as he spoke, but when the Marquis of Murong heard Lu's words, he smiled faintly.
In fact, when the clan elders on one side heard Lu say this in person, they really wanted to find a hole to drill into. This is the Hou Ye. This is Master Hou! Merchants, none of them can afford to offend!
The faces of the three patriarchs changed again and again, and then they stood up and saluted to Kou Ergongzi and Murong Houye:
"Please forgive you. We don't care about the business house, we don't care about it, today is just to congratulate the big house and add Ding! ”
The old lady saluted and said:
"Old sister-in-law, let's go back first."
Mrs. Shang said lightly:
"Uncle Gen, send the three clan elders on my behalf, come so far and hard, give the three clan elders some tea money!"
