Chapter 144: Winter Clothes

Lao Li threw the cloth off his shoulders with such force that it was like a butcher throwing half a pig on the board.

"I'm more familiar with the way of the three religions and nine streams, than you." He glanced at Wu Punishment and said with some mockery: "The half-grown boy who has not dried up is yelling at everyone, be careful of kicking the iron plate one day." ”

As for this ridicule, it was not enough to anger Wu Xi, but before he could speak, Zheng Lingyi couldn't hold it back.

"He was born like a big man with a bow and a falcon, but he has the name of a farmer in the field. first said that he was a proper person, and then said that he had a way of teaching and nine streams. Why are you singing against yourself before and after you say this? ”

Wu Zhi glanced at Zheng Lingyi, pursed the corners of his mouth, and simply stopped talking.

Lao Li looked at him with such a peaceful look that he was protected by his wife, and for some reason he was angry, and looked at Zheng Lingyi again, only to feel that her pure face was a little slippery at this moment.

Lao Li frowned and said: "The lease has been signed for ten years, is it possible that you still want to repay the debt?" ”

"It's not that I'm not paying off, I just don't want to be kept in the dark. I won't hide it from you, this shop was stuffed to me by my mother-in-law, and I have to be vigilant. ”

Zheng Lingyi said, and suddenly his voice quickly lowered, and it was like a candle flame like a bean, making people pinch and extinguish it with one finger.

Wu Zhi's eyes also froze, and he took a sideways step to half-hide Zheng Lingyi behind him.

Lao Li didn't turn around, but looking at his expression, he obviously knew that there was someone behind him.

A small girl walked out from behind the shelf, and she looked at Zheng Lingyi and Wu Zhu with a smile, as if she had seen a friend who had been reunited after a long absence

It can be seen that the two of them looked suspicious and vigilant, so she straightened her face and said unhappily: "What? Don't want to see me? ”

Seeing Xiao Rose walking out from behind the shelves, Zheng Lingyi and Wu Zhi were first surprised, and then felt helpless.

Wu Zhi rubbed the back of his neck, paced a few steps in place, and said, "You have so many industries under your hands, do you have to use it for others?" ”

"It's hidden." Xiao Rose and Wu Punishment were born a little bit wrong, and seeing that he was not very interested, he was excited.

Lao Li looked at Xiao Gui, Xiao Gui winked at him, and said, "Old friend, it's okay, this shop has to be rented even if it is not rented to us." ”

The couple stood in place and listened to Xiao Rose's own words, and opened their mouths several times to interrupt, but they were blocked by a string of words from her.

"Why don't you speak?" Xiao Gui said to himself, looked at the silent Zheng Lingyi and Wu Punishment, and said.

The two of them glanced at each other, and Wu punished: "We just want to live in peace, and we don't want to get involved in some things that can't be seen clearly or clearly." ”

Xiao Gui took a step forward and said to Zheng Lingyi: "Madame, just live in peace, nothing will involve you." ”

The matter in front of him was temporarily unresolved, Zheng Lingyi sighed, and said lightly to Wu Punishment: "The time to meet Chang Chang is almost up, let's go first." ”

Wu Zhi nodded, glanced at Xiao Zhuo, she tilted her head and smiled at Wu Zhi again, and said, "I wish you the title of the gold list in advance." ”

With a smiling face and good words, Wu Zhi couldn't speak ill of each other, so he only said: "Take care of some proportions when acting, and don't leave a mess for me." ”

Xiao Gui snorted and smiled disdainfully: "It's just that a pair of eyes are here, look at you are very scared." ”

"The small people who are promoted to fight have no power and no power, so they are naturally afraid." Zheng Lingyi said unhurriedly.

Wu Zhiyi also said: "This news is all in the wind, and the people above can catch it, and we have no way to inquire if we want to." ”

Seeing that the couple sang and harmonized, Xiao Zhu blinked, seriously relieved the two of them, and said, "It's going to be fine, our master never harms the innocent." ”

Hearing her say this, Wu Punishment's eyes flashed, as if he had grasped something.

In the end, there was still something to do, Wu Zhi left the carriage and horses at the door of the cold clothes shop, and walked to the tea house with Zheng Lingyi.

The street is crowded with people, although most of the oncoming people are afraid of Wu Zhi's cold noodles that are not easy to get along with, and they will always avoid some.

But some women and children can't manage so much, and they will always rub Zheng Lingyi when they are playful and laughing.

Wu Yan stretched out his long arm and grabbed Zheng Lingyi in his arms. Although she wore a veil, she was still a little embarrassed.

The tea house is not far from the cold clothes shop, and as soon as Zheng Lingyi walked in, a clever little second looked at her eyebrows and asked tentatively: "But our host's sister and wife." ”

Zheng Lingyi nodded, he raised his hand, and said, "Upstairs, please, the owner is already waiting for you." ”

"This tea house is doing good business." Wu Zhi glanced down the stairs at the guests downstairs and said to Zheng Lingyi.

"Yes, I heard Chang Chang say that this was originally Zhonggong's shop, but because it was at the end of the street, the house didn't pay much attention, and the annual income was not much. After my father handed it over to my aunt to take care of, she closed the door for a month, replaced the original tables and chairs, and added a private seat, and her business was much better. ”

This was good news, but Zheng Lingyi was worried.

Outside the private room, Qiao Luo looked forward to it, and hurriedly greeted Zheng Lingyi when he saw it.

Zheng Lingyi didn't want his worries to sweep away Zheng Changchang's interest, and when he saw them, he smiled, and said, "This tea house is very well maintained, you and your aunt are both interested." ”

"This tea house is the first shop that my father handed over to my aunt, and it is precisely because I saw that there was more money to give my aunt some industry, and my father was ghostly."

Zheng Changchang said this a little arrogantly, and looked at Wu Zhi embarrassedly and smiled.

The clothes on her body are not as rustic as before, they are all fashionable patterns, which makes her more and more generous.

The two sisters sat down to talk, and Wu Yan didn't want to follow the side to listen, so he really took out a book and read it on the futon in the porch.

Qiao Luo glanced at Wu Zhu and said lightly to Zheng Lingyi: "Is my uncle good to you?" ”

Zheng Lingyi smiled and nodded, without the slightest hesitation.

Zheng Changchang took out a bag from her arms and said to Zheng Lingyi: "My aunt secretly asked for a talisman for my brother-in-law, saying that it could bless high school." Madame also asked for one for the thirteenth brother! ”

Zheng Lingyi put the bag away closely, glanced at Wu Zhi again, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "He is very smart and knowledgeable." As for the thirteenth brother, I feel that although I have asked the Buddha for protection, there is a ball of grass in my head, and the Buddha doesn't know how to help. ”

The two sisters laughed as they ate, and Wu Zhi was absorbed in reading the book, and was not interrupted by them.

"Madame didn't bother you when she knew that my face was fine, did she?" Zheng Lingyi always couldn't help but ask.

Zheng Changchang shook her head and said, "Sister, don't worry. Mrs. Now she doesn't even ask for peace for a day, and the biggest thing about An and Curie recently is to marry the twelfth sister. ”

"Why is Zhang Luo on the list, doesn't it depend on whether that Xu Gongzi's is on the list?" Zheng Lingyi was surprised.

The maids of Dongyuan broke their mouths and leaked the news. Daddy didn't want people to poke his backbone, saying that he was like those rich squires who were on the list to catch his son-in-law, so he simply made the marriage clear. The wedding date is scheduled, just two days after the release of the list. ”

This delicate time made Zheng Lingyi a little emotional, and said, "Daddy, this is a gamble." If it is on the list, it will be lively and joyful, but if it is not on the list, it will not be ......

Zheng Lingyi realized that he had said something unlucky, and hurriedly covered his mouth with a handkerchief and said softly.

Seeing her like this, Zheng Changchang pursed her mouth and said, "Sister is still afraid of causing bad luck to the twelfth sister?" She always ridicules you in front of and behind people, it's really strange, there are so many sisters who have married, why bother holding on to you? ”

"The age is close, always comparing them, and Mianmian is always mean to you. Speaking of which, has she been doing eyeliner for An Heju recently? ”

Zheng Changchang said a little lonely: "She is still an unpleasant person who probes her brain, and her father gradually relies on her aunt, and I also know the stakes, so I deliberately remain cold." We barely spoke these days. ”

Zheng Lingyi held his sister's hand and comforted: "Changchang, you have grown up and know how to make trade-offs." ”

When Zheng Lingyi took some effort out of her hands, it was time to visit her in-laws' house for Zheng Changchang, she didn't want to ask the Lu family to push Zheng Changchang into the fire pit.

Thinking of marrying, Zheng Lingyi looked at Qiao Luo with some apologies, and said lightly: "Gan Song, ask me for your kindness." ”

Qiao Luo blushed and nodded with shame and joy.

Zheng Changchang looked at Qiaoluo's expression and said to her, "Qiaoluo, go and ask for another plate of refreshments." ”

"Okay, slave and maid, let's go."

Zheng Changchang's door was closed, and then he said to Zheng Lingyi: "A few days ago, the house pointed out to me a maid called a green bracelet. Although the deed is in my hand, it doesn't last long, and I'm still a little uneasy, so I still take Qiaoluo in and out. Sister, do you have any reliable people, my aunt said that she couldn't help dragging Sister Qiaoluo, and wanted to find a reliable and caring maid for herself as soon as possible, so as to send Sister Qiaoluo out to get married. ”

The mother and daughter thought of a place, Zheng Lingyi nodded, and said, "Okay, I will keep an eye on it for my aunt." ”

met with Zheng Changchang and said a lot of things, Zheng Lingyi felt a little relieved.

When she returned to the quiet residence and talked to Wu Zhi about today's events, she was more worried about Han Yixing.

"There are only a few people who can bury stakes everywhere in Beijing, but I have only heard of them, I have never seen them in person, I don't know their way of acting, and I can't make judgments."

Wu Zhi also felt that this matter was a headache, but he couldn't always hold on to what he couldn't do.

"Okay, I think Xiao Zhu is a little obedient, but he is not a hypocrite or a villain, so we don't have to worry too much. Right now, the world is big, and the exam is the biggest. ”

Zheng Ling said that Wu Zhi rubbed his temples, as if he had a headache, and said again: "Loose hair, I'll grate it for you, it will be more comfortable." ”

When Midori invited the two of them out for dinner, they saw such a peaceful and leisurely scene.

Wu Yan leaned back in his chair, his black hair scattered.

Zheng Lingyi stood behind him, gently holding his head with one hand, and pinching a handful of green sandalwood grates with the other hand and grating them carefully on his scalp.

Midori said softly, and then closed the door and came out.

"Uncle will definitely have a good reputation." She thought.
