Chapter 19: The Road to Tomorrow

Yang Lianqi smiled: "Since you don't want to go over, I specially instructed the cook to make you a copy according to our dinner at night, some of them I think are very appetizing, so I want you to taste it no matter what, and I think that if you are at your own house at this time, I am afraid that your parents will want to leave all the good ones to you, but according to etiquette, you can't go home today, I'm afraid that you will miss home, and I don't think you can feel wronged." ”

Shen Qianqian's nose was a little sour, and after a long time, she spoke: "Everyone outside says that you are evil, and I misunderstood you before, you are actually a very good person, good people will have good rewards, and your illness will definitely be cured." ”

"My illness is born, it's good or not, it's a matter of time before I die, but it's nothing, who will never die?"

It is true, but where is it true that healthy people face good times, while people who are riddled with diseases stand on the brink of death every day?

Shen Qianqian was afraid of this problem, so she didn't talk about it anymore, and then remembered something: "I offended Yang Lianxi during the day today, and at night your aunt asked someone to call me over, and I didn't go, are they very angry, I'm afraid that they will scold me in front of you, right?" ”

Yang Lianqi hesitated.

Not to mention scolding, my aunt also dropped a few plates, and my cousin even smashed all the cases.

But he couldn't say these words, he thought about it, and only said: "There will indeed be upset, but it's not that serious, you don't have to take it to heart." ”

"Of course I won't take it to heart, I'm afraid that they will embarrass you, you say you ......" She looked at him kindly, and hated iron and steel, obviously he was the main master, how could he make it look like he was begging for a living in front of others?

She gritted her teeth and said, "When I come back today, I have thought about something, and I was still thinking about whether to tell you, but now I have decided to tell you, it is up to you whether I agree or not." ”

"Well, I have something to say, too." Yang Lianqi also said, "I have already thought it out at the Thousand Kite Meeting, and I feel more sure tonight." ”

"Then you speak first."

"It's fine." Yang Lianqi nodded, "I plan to discuss with my cousin and aunt to get back the management rights of the Yang family's shop, and hand it over to ...... when it is stable."

"Ah, I'm going to do the same." Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Shen Qianqian.

He paused for the rest of his words: "You are the same as I think?" ”

"That's right." Shen Qianqian came to the spirit, "The management of the Yang family's store, you must keep it in your hands, this is what your parents left for you, even if you don't care, you can't waste the hard work of your ancestors, fortunately, you have finally opened your mind, you were not in good health and had no energy to manage before, but it is understandable, but there will be me in the future,

Don't worry, I'll help you get your business back! ”

"Take?" Yang Lianqi didn't want to use this word.

"Yes, take it back." Shen Qianqian didn't hear his questioning, "It's true that I don't understand the business field, but if I don't give it a try, how do I know that there is no chance, it's a big deal that you come up with ideas, I will do my best, and we will work together." Moreover, I have to promise you one thing, you may feel better and more motivated after listening to it. ”

"Miss Shen, please speak."

She was confident: "When you take away the family business and drive the Li mother and son out of the Yang family, the people will no longer dare to neglect your condition, and I can rest assured at that time, you will send me a letter of resignation, or we will go to the county government to ask for peace and leave, then you will have nothing to do with me, who do you like, and then propose to whom you are open, you say, is this a good thing?" ”

"Retirement ...... And away? Yang Lianqi was stunned.

"yes, aren't you happy?"

"I ......"

"Don't thank me, to be honest, I had already made plans for my life before, but now I think you are a very good person, we can't make do with each other like this, it's a waste to each other."

"You...... Think of it this way? Yang Lianqi hasn't come back to his senses yet.

The problem is that he made a deliberate decision for her sake.

He was worried that this eldest lady would be wronged with him, so he wanted to take back the family business and then hand it all over to her, so that if he left one day, she could also gain a firm foothold in the Yang family.

A marriage letter with two surnames is married, there must be righteousness if there is no love, and he is ready to be responsible for the rest of her life.

But the other party was ready to leave.

It's okay, don't delay her, it's also responsible.

He sighed lightly: "Since Miss Shen said so, I agreed, I hereby promise, when the business is returned, money or other, although Miss Shen speaks, as long as she can take it out, Yang will have nothing to say, but ...... Even if it is a divorce, outsiders' evaluation of women is always unfair, you ......"

"You don't have to worry about this, I'm not as weak as you, I can't help but ......" Shen Qianqian said halfway, and felt that it was inappropriate, so she stopped in time, she thought about it, let the person into the room, and spread out the paper and pen in front of the bookcase, "There is no time to wait, just do it, how many of your Yang family's bamboo stores are there...... Do you know any of these? ”

Yang Lianqi ignored her questioning gaze.

He's a sick seedling, but not a sick seedling who is useless.

He nodded and said: "The store is currently only open in Weiyuan County, and there are a total of forty-seven stores directly opened by the Yang family, and these stores are hired by the Yang family personally, and all the management is done by us, and the guys in the store only obey the arrangement, and all profits are made by the Yang family."

Another 12 joint operations with other merchants, hired and managed by the owners of these merchants, the Yang family only manages the operation of bamboo, and the profit is fifty-fifty, each merchant has its own business model, they have the most requirements, and they are more troublesome, but the relationship between the cousin and these bosses is not bad. ”

"In this way, these twelve joint ventures are the most difficult to deal with, we should start with them first!" Shen Qianqian made a stroke on the paper.

"No, the owners of these shops also pay for themselves, and they are more interested in whether the business is doing well, as for the Yang family, it doesn't matter who negotiates with them, but the guys in the stores that are directly operated, they are taken care of by their cousins, I am afraid that it will be difficult to listen to us, and it is basically impossible to find out some news from them."

"This ......," Shen Qianqian took a deep breath, "It seems that this road is not so easy." ”

She put down the pen and stretched out her hand to the person in front of her: "But it doesn't matter, from now on, we are people in the same boat, let's just give it a go, there is nothing to be afraid of!" ”

"Good!" Yang Lianqi also stretched out his hand and shook her tightly.

Shen Qianqian felt that this sick and weak person's hands were very warm.

Her heart suddenly softened, and after thinking about it, she said: "By the way, I know that you love Sister Luo, but now it is not a good time for her to enter the Yang family, you can rest assured, I will go to Changqingzhai tomorrow, if it is possible, I ask Sister Luo to wait, don't be so anxious about marriage, and when this matter is completed, I will also leave, it will be a good day." ”

Yang Lianqi stroked his forehead, feeling uncomfortable, and didn't want to talk to her anymore.

There was wind outside the window, and the pen that had just been placed on the paper was blown by the wind, leaving ink marks on the white paper.

She put the pen on the pen holder, and with a wave of her sleeve, the dove fluttered its wings and flew away, flashing white in the bright lights of the sky.

Under the lanterns, some people sighed lightly at the moon.

Qin Liu, the county Cheng stepped into the courtyard of the county government hall with pastries, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Lord Li shaking a fan and looking up at the moon.

Master Li changed into a plain robe, without a high crown, only a part of the hairpin was raised, and the rest of the black hair hung down on his shoulders.

Qin Liu cautiously walked over, glanced behind him, and said in a low voice, "What's the matter, Mu Yan, have you been reprimanded by the old lady again?" ”

Under officialdom, the two are friends.

Li Muyan frowned, secretly glanced behind him, and nodded.

On the bamboo chair not far behind, his mother was taking a fruit, which was close to her mouth, probably still without appetite, and put it back on the plate, looking over here: "Don't you want to sue Xiao Liuzi, don't you ignore what I said?" ”

Li Muyan secretly pouted at Qin Liu: Isn't it?

Qin Liu patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, I'll help you persuade." ”

After that, he walked to the bamboo chair, put the pastries on the table, and said with a smile: "Old lady, my family made their own morning cake, can you taste it?" ”

The old lady expressed her gratitude, but her eyebrows did not stretch, and she glared to the side: "Look at the little six sons, the family is so virtuous, by the way, the children are several years old, what about you, what about you, every year we celebrate the holidays, cold and lonely, boring!" ”

Qin Liu hurriedly said: "You can't compare like this, I'm a few years older than Mu Yan." ”

"But he should be on the lookout now." The old lady patted the table, "This marriage, to having children, to raising children, it takes time." ”

"Mu Yan's mind is spent on the people, and it is normal for him to have no time to think about this......

"Where did he spend his time on this, why not find a matchmaker to help Zhang Luo?"

"This is also ......" Qin Liu nodded, with a flash of inspiration, "Yes, he doesn't need to worry about this, old lady, aren't you looking for a matchmaker?" ”

"I'm ......," the old lady paused, "I've looked for it, it's not ...... Didn't it work out? ”

"Didn't work out?" He looked back at Li Muyan suspiciously.

Watch the wind blow the man's hair, and the night pours out of his moonlight.

Qin Liu looked back, frowned and asked, "Shouldn't it, the women in Weiyuan County have such a high vision?" ”

If they don't even look down on people like Master Li, then at least most of the men here are single.

"Not really." The old lady hesitated, "But I'll have to pick too, right?" ”

"That makes sense."

"Actually, my requirements are not too high." The old lady said again.

"Even if the requirements are high, Mu Yan can afford it."

"Little Liuzi, look." The old lady's expression finally softened a little, "I will ask the lady he marries to be gentle and virtuous, is this no problem?" ”

"Of course there is no problem, not only that, Mu Yan's wife should also look like one in a thousand."

"Appearance is not important, it is best to look good, I can accept it if it is not good-looking, marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person, appearance is secondary."

Qin Liu immediately gave a thumbs up: "Old lady, you are so open-minded. ”

The enlightened old lady continued, "Then I hope that she will be knowledgeable and generous, and not afraid of outsiders, and be able to go to the halls." ”

"Yes, this is also a normal requirement, not only to be able to go to the hall, but also to be able to go to the kitchen."

"If you can't get into the kitchen, you don't need her to cook, and you don't need her to cook when you get married."

Qin Liu looked admiration again: "Old lady, where can you find a mother-in-law like you?" ”

But...... If that's the case, it shouldn't be hard to say matchmaking.

Listening to the old lady again: "Secondly, I hope that she can have her own things, not to make money, but she has to live with a goal, and she doesn't have to revolve around Mu Yan all the time, and then I also hope that she can be strong, don't go back to complain to her parents as soon as she encounters something, if it's me who is wrong, or Mu Yan, we will apologize to her in person, but I don't really want to deal with my in-laws from time to time because of these things, and besides, it's better for her not to be a local, Mu Yan's place of appointment will change at any time, and the local people are afraid that they will not want to follow in the future, and she will ......"

"Wait a minute." Qin Liu's face slowly turned unpleasant, "I want to confirm first, you want to ...... The other party is a girl who is far away from her parents, uprooted from home, and can come out to do things, but is not yet married? ”

"That's not a lot of demand, is it?" The old lady asked seriously.

"Huh." The corners of his mouth twitched, "Maybe in another thousand years, there may be such a girl." ”

But now there are not many women who show up, not to mention that they have never been out of the cabinet, so there are even fewer, and they have to be far away from their relatives in their hometowns, which is ...... If it weren't for the real difficulties, I'm afraid no girl would be willing to do it.

No wonder none of them worked.

But......

But suddenly he remembered someone.

He thought for a moment, and hurriedly said, "I saw a person today, which meets your requirements very well." ”

"Oh." The old lady sat up straight.

Li Muyan also took a few steps closer.

Two pairs of eyes stared at Qin Liu, Qin Liu cleared his throat and pointed up: "Miss Luo who is fasting." ”

With a "snap", Li Muyan's fan fell to the ground.

Qin Liu picked up the fan and stuffed it back into his hand: "If you don't know it, I'll go there in person and help Mu Yan talk about a matchmaker." ”

The old lady was overjoyed: "Okay, okay, little Liuzi, this matter will be entrusted to you." ”

The fan that had just been stuffed back into his hand fell off again.

The old lady finally picked up the fruit and ate it, and looked up curiously: "What did you just point up?" ”

"Paper kites."

"Where's the paper kite?" The old lady stared at the heights, and saw only a white shadow.

The white shadow landed on the pavilion of the attic with a cooing sound.
