Sun Jiaofeng's heart was already weak, but she was so stubborn that she didn't want to admit that her liking for her cousin was also based on his wealth, so she stiffened her neck and argued, "You are not a beggar villager, my dowry is also rich, we will not have a hard life when we get married." ”

Fang Jie got up and straightened his robe, and replied lightly, "In life, who dares to assert that a life will be smooth?" Cousin, let's wait to marry in peace, I have heard of your husband's family, and it has a very good reputation, and you will definitely not suffer if you marry. And your uncle has pampered you for more than ten years, you should also repay his nurturing grace and contribute some strength to his career. With such a perfect of both worlds, my cousin should stop making trouble. If there is gossip, I am afraid that the entire Sun Mansion will be affected.

I said goodbye, and I hope my cousin will think twice. ”

After he finished speaking, he got up and walked out, and Wei stood at the door and naturally heard the conversation between the two in his ears. She had the heart to pull her nephew to ask a few words, but the sound of Jiao Feng's crying was already heard in the room. She had to hurriedly instruct her, "Brother Guan, go back first, and come back to talk to your aunt in a few days." ”

Fang Jie nodded in response, and Wei hurriedly walked into the house. Sun Jiaofeng was crying with tears in her eyes, and she barely saw Wei Shi walking to the bed, and immediately threw herself into her arms and sobbed and shouted, "Erniang, I'm not greedy for wealth, I just like my cousin." Why doesn't my cousin like me? ”

"Okay, okay, don't cry. Our Feng'er is one of the best daughters in the whole Cuiluan City, and Brother Guan'er's eyes are covered by cow..."

Jiao Feng heard that Erniang, who had always been dignified and gentle, couldn't help but laugh with tears in her eyes in order to comfort her by saying such vulgar words, and her heart was also much better. She stretched out her hand to wipe two handfuls of tears, and muttered a little unwillingly, "It's okay if my cousin doesn't like me, why is he fascinated by a village woman, Erniang, am I not even as good as a village woman?" ”

Wei sighed, and he was also worried in his heart, "Brother Guan'er Xu is really confused, Feng'er will not pay attention to this matter in the future." I'm his aunt, and whoever he marries has to pass me first. ”

Not to mention how the Wei family and Jiao Feng'er discussed in private, it was only said that Fang was in charge of the Sun Mansion, and seeing that the sun was about to set in the West Mountain, he hesitated for a moment and then paced back to Nian'en Garden. I plan to stay overnight, and tomorrow I will go to the street to find some novelty and bring back to please Pucao, so as to dissolve the old vinegar that must have been overflowing in her heart.

Dongzi originally returned to the city with the vegetable delivery carriage the day before yesterday to get the account book, but he was delayed for a day in order to be close to his daughter-in-law and children. When he suddenly saw his master returning on foot, he thought that his master was in a hurry to wait and rushed back to ask for the guilt in person.

Fang Jie saw that this kid was cautiously busy waiting for him to change clothes and wash up, and guessed most of the reason, so he said, "It's just that I didn't delay things this time, and I won't take it as an example." ”

Dongzi hurriedly saluted and thanked him, and Fang Jie asked the boy with the most ghost ideas about where he was going to find something new.

Dongzi's pair of small eyes turned quickly, and he immediately guessed the master's mind, so he smiled and proposed, "If the son wants to find something new, he has to go to the Sun family's seafood shop." Childe, what do you think, the items they sell there are all from overseas countries, which is naturally the latest for us Snow Country people. ”

Fang Jie heard that this was reasonable, and he was worried about going back to the village earlier, so he got up and said, "Let's go, let's go to Sun's shop to have a look." ”

Seeing that it was dark, Dongzi wanted to open his mouth to dissuade him, but in the end he swallowed his words back. It's rare that the master is in a good mood, and if the shop is closed, he should accompany him for a walk.

Unexpectedly, the master and servant came to the treasure of the Sun family, but they saw that the door of the shop had not been closed. Fang Jie was overjoyed, and when he stepped in, he called the young man who bent down and swept the floor and asked, "Little brother, are you in the store?" I'm sorry to ask him to come out and see him. ”

The young man also had a good memory, and he only glanced at the master and servant and smiled, "Oh, it turned out that Fang Gongzi had arrived." You can sit down, and the small ones will go and ask the shopkeeper. ”

Fang Jie nodded and thanked him, sat on the chair and waited for the shopkeeper Sun while drinking tea.

In the small flower hall in the backyard of Zhenbaoji, Sun Chengzheng had just closed a business with a young woman, and before he could serve tea to the guests, he heard the young man's report, and immediately hurriedly confessed and rushed to the front yard.

The woman felt that she had been neglected, and was secretly annoyed in her heart, and she went out to inquire with the young man. The young man didn't think it was a secret, so he said that it was Fang Gongzi from Baiyunju who came to take care of the business.

I didn't want the woman to stop immediately, and her two beautiful eyes were brighter than the lanterns hanging under the porch. She also stopped following the way she came and left through the back door, but offered to borrow the way from the front door. The young man hesitated slightly, and a piece of broken silver was stuffed in his hand, and naturally led her to the front yard.

When Sun Cheng had just come out of the first month of this year, he begged Sun Fuyin for the old man and begged for the freedom of the family. Now he keeps the treasure book every day, his business is prosperous, and his income is quite rich, which is enough to keep their family without worrying about food and clothing. In his spare time, he often talked about Fang Jie's kindness, and today he finally looked forward to the door of his benefactor, and he was so happy that he stepped forward to make a big gift.

How could Fang Jie take it, helped him up, the two sat down and exchanged a few words, and Fang Jie explained his intention. I didn't want Sun to pat his thigh when he was established, and said with a smile, "This is really a coincidence, if the son comes during the day, the old man will not have any good objects to give to the child." However, just now, a guest came to return the goods, but it was for the old decay. ”

After he said this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly explained, "The guest returned the goods to be discounted for other use, not because the goods were defective..."

"Uncle Sun is too polite, if I can't trust Uncle Sun, how can I come to the door?" Fang Jie shook the folding fan and smiled gently, which made Sun Cheng feel even more grateful. He took out a palm-sized sandalwood box from his sleeve, carefully handed it to Fang Jie, and said with a smile, "Childe, this is a delicate object brought back from overseas feudal countries, it is as beautiful as a bracelet on the wrist, and it is said that it can also calculate the time, but the old and stupid did not learn to understand from those people, and only knew that the name of this object is a watch." ”

Fang Jie reached out and took it and gently opened the lid of the box. I saw that there was a layer of red brocade at the bottom of the box, and two cotton bags sewn from plain satin were placed in the middle, and two objects were covered with one gold and one silver. The object was very peculiar, as if it had been connected by a block of gold and silver, holding up a small disc in the middle. The disc is covered with a thin layer of transparent crystal, revealing the twelve brilliant gems set inside, and three thin needles of different lengths are lying in the middle, which looks extremely delicate and elegant.

The more Fang Jie looked at it, the more exquisite he felt, and he guessed that Pu Cao would like it after seeing it, so he smiled and said, "Uncle Sun, I want these two watches, you can open them as much silver as you like." ”

Sun Cheng laughed, waved his hand and said, "The old decay family can have a good life today, and it is all thanks to the son's original mention, and the old decay has never known how to repay it." Today, even if these two objects are old and decrepit, Childe will accept them no matter what. ”

"Then what's the matter," Fang Jie came to the door to pick a good thing, but he didn't have the intention of taking advantage of it, so he naturally didn't want to accept it in vain, "Such a delicate object, Uncle Sun doesn't earn my money because he thinks about it, but the capital must be collected." ”

Sun Cheng was so anxious that he shook his head vigorously, and said honestly, "Childe doesn't know, that person came to play with the delivery guy, and he didn't want to catch the wind cold on the road, so the old man asked the doctor to diagnose him." When he returned from illness, he gave this pair of items to the old man as a thank you gift. The old man really hasn't paid a penny, so don't shirk the child. ”

Fang Jie saw that Sun Cheng was a sincere gift, and he felt a little unkind if he refused to continue, so he thought about it and said, "Okay, I took these two watches, thank you Uncle Sun for the generous gift." ”

Sun Cheng's wish was fulfilled, he felt relaxed, and called the young man with a smile to hurry up and add new tea.

The two of them were gossiping about the latest news in the city, but the young woman, who had been eavesdropping for a long time, walked out with a jade hand and lifted the curtain, only to hear her smile and smile, "Thank you so much for the shopkeeper Sun today, huh... Fang Gongzi is also here, what a coincidence. The slave family was still thinking about why there was a magpie hovering overhead when Fang just went out, and it turned out that it should be on Fang Gongzi. ”

As if she had just realized that Fang Jie was here, she stepped forward with a look of surprise and saluted and greeted.

Fang Jie raised his eyes and saw that the beautiful woman who was smiling and walked to the front of him to salute, it was actually a peony girl who had not been seen for many days, his eyebrows were raised, he returned the salute, and said lightly, "The peony girl is also here to take care of Sun's shopkeeper's business?" What a coincidence. ”

Peony moved two steps closer, pulled up the handkerchief and drowned the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile, "People say that they are destined to meet thousands of miles away, and my son and I can be regarded as having a heart." I got two jars of good wine a few days ago, and I was thinking about when to invite my son to taste it together, but I didn't expect to meet it here today. If Childe is not in a hurry, why don't you move to the peony garden tonight for a few drinks, okay? ”

Fang Jie smelled the strong incense on her handkerchief, his brows wrinkled deeper unconsciously, he took two steps back slightly, and refused, "Thank you Miss Peony for your concern, it's just that there are still trivial matters busy today, and I will definitely visit another day if I have leisure." ”

After he finished saying this, he said goodbye politely to the shopkeeper Sun, and finally went out with Dongzi, who rolled his eyes vigorously.

Sun Wei has been in the back house of the official family for many years, how could he not see the reason why Peony went and returned, he glared at the shrunken young man fiercely, and then stepped forward to politely ask Peony if there were other things to buy.

Peony was annoyed that Fang Jie treated her coldly, and when she heard this, she hurriedly shook her handkerchief and said goodbye and returned to the peony garden.

The little maid stepped forward to wait for her to change her clothes and wash up, and when she saw that her face was not good, she asked, "Girl, but the bustard found out that you went out?" ”

Peony shook his head, raised his hand and raised the teacup and was about to bring it to his mouth, but in the end he still felt suffocated in his chest, and he fell to the ground with a wave of his hand.

The little maid screamed in fright, and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort, "Girl, who are you angry with?" But the Shen Dongjia is coming here again at night, although he is a little ugly, but he is generous, instead of letting the old bustard sell you indiscriminately, it is better to agree to go to the Shen family as a concubine. ”
