Chapter 140, The Man Who Stalked
This cousin-in-law looks good, Zhang Changji sighed in his heart. This family affair did not follow his aunt's wishes, and when the Gong family came, Mrs. Du did not invite relatives to accompany him. Zhang Changji, who had never seen Master Gong, saw it today, and couldn't help but sigh for his cousin who was like a flower. This family affair is really a wronged cousin.
Although Lord Gong is average-looking, he is still shrewd. A glance at this cousin showed that he didn't like him. That's it, the people of this family, except for their father-in-law Du Daren, barely have a sentence to listen to, whether it is his mother-in-law or his fiancΓ©e, they don't speak human words.
What do people say about this family matter, Mrs. Du only made a family affair and didn't say anything to her future son-in-law, that was because Lord Gong resigned again and again. In Long'an Temple, Lord Gong bowed to the end in front of Chu Huaixian, bowed again and again, and kept saying: "The lower officials are not suitable." It was Chu Huaixian who pressed Lord Gong's head and reminded Lord Du that this family affair must be completed.
After returning to Beijing, Lord Gong had to prepare a generous gift to worship. He is a poor Beijing official, and his family background is thin, so in order to settle the matter, he made a generous gift to the door, and resigned from his family again. Although the humility could not be lower, but if she resigned again, Mrs. Du would not feel relieved if she could bite him down a few bites of flesh.
The daughter of the Du family, the daughter of the Du family, because she was calculated, first Miss Zhuang, and then Xiaochu, fell into your hands like this. And you don't know gratitude yet! Think about it again, this Lord Gong doesn't have long eyes, and someone screams at the bottom of the Chu family, what are you running out for! Every time Mrs. Du thought like this, she became angry. In her heart, Master Gong should be smiling, as soon as he entered the door of the Du family, he lowered his waist to ten points, and when he saw his father-in-law, he should bow down and thank him, and when he saw his mother-in-law, he should kneel and thank him, and he didn't want to be this one, so he actually resigned again. In the heart of Mrs. Du, who is proud of her daughter, can she not be sad?
Zhang Changji hastily received Lord Gong, but fortunately, the etiquette was quite thorough. Seeing him off at the door, he hurried to see his aunt. Mrs. Du was still coaxing Du Yingzhu, and when she saw her nephew coming in, she sighed, lowered her head and sat down without speaking. Du Yingzhu and his cousin have a good relationship, Zhang Changji is a bastard outside, and his aunt loves him, but he still knows that he hurts his cousin. Du Yingzhu cried loudly. Zhang Changji smiled bitterly and dissuaded: "Sister, I can't regret this family matter." Fortunately, I just talked to him, but it wasn't a straw bale. I just hope that his husband will be honored in the future, and you will be noble with your wife, and you will live patiently. β
persuaded Du Yingzhu well, and Zhang Changji accompanied Mrs. Du out. As soon as he went out, Zhang Changji couldn't help it: "I really can't regret it?" Mrs. Du said hatefully;" You've seen the injustices, and you haven't seen how poor their family is. I will give them a generous dowry, and my dowry will not be disadvantaged. You know how he got me back, and he actually said that he was a poor Beijing official. How can a poor Beijing official be worthy of my daughter! Zhang Changji wanted to laugh when he heard it, although he still smiled bitterly. Since I can't regret it, I can only persuade my aunt again: "Most of the Beijing officials are poor, and the few poor Beijing officials who live in the apartment at the head of my house should go every day, and this one can still do a good job, which is better than those people." β
Mrs. Du listened to this, and she also cried loudly, and then held back her tears and said to Zhang Changji: "My son, I don't have a son, I love you the most." You have to remember who is to blame for this. Zhang Changji gritted his teeth and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I will arrange this matter properly." But I told my aunt last time that I couldn't come forward about this. The restaurant pointed out to Zheng Gongzi that he happened to meet them. In the future, someone has to send a message to the Chu family to tease, can my aunt miss someone? β
The two of them walked back to the room, Mrs. Du withdrew the girl, and told Zhang Changji: "There is a Liu Po who sells flowers and needlework, and often walks around everyone's house. Let her tease, this thing will definitely be done. Mrs. Du said fiercely: "Not only the thief girl, but also the slut of the dealer, I will not let go." Zhang Changji was startled and reminded his aunt: "It's okay for a girl to do it, the sons are all temporary, just play with it." Miss Zhuang is a daughter, how does this make it? Mrs. Du said to Zhang Changji: "You come here with your ears." After saying a few words in Zhang Changji's ear, Zhang Changji said yes again and again, and gave his aunt a thumbs up: "This strategy is high!" β
Mrs. Du, who was calculated by her daughter, showed ruthlessness in her eyes: "My daughters can't succeed, they don't think about it!" β
Xiao Chu has rested at home for these days, and he can finally go out. Sun Erhai drove the car, and Zhao Jin followed. When the carriage arrived on the long street, Zhao Jin asked Sun Erhai, "Where are we going?" "The car looks good on the street, and there are two people outside, but in fact, it is ruined inside. The person sitting is just a girl in the family. Zhao Jin, who is in charge, feels very awkward. But the second lady said that he had to come along.
Sun Erhai was born as a bad guy in the market, and he is no stranger to ushering in customers. Obviously seeing that Zhao Jin was uncomfortable, he still smiled and said, "I have to listen to her." Then he whispered, "She, she goes to the same place." Zhao Jin snorted: "I think so." β
Today's carriage is going to Qin Ji Shop, and there is Zhao Jin in the car, of course he will not go to Gong Miaoer. When the carriage stopped, Zhao Jin was even more uncomfortable, as if we followed her out to buy embroidery and spend money. I actually ran to this grocery store. Here I look at the small east and small west, and there are larger ones such as screen jade. Although the shop is not big, it looks like a place where girls love to come. Zhao Jin snorted in his nose.
Hum and saw Xiao Chu get out of the car, and smiled at Sun Erhai and Zhao Jin: "I will be an acquaintance, you come in and sit?" Sun Erhai excused himself first: "I'm watching the carriage outside." "Zhao Jin pay attention to it, there should be a backyard in this shop. If Xiao Chu walked through the back door to meet people..... Zhao Jin thought about it, so he would come down and follow in.
Fang Xiang came out and invited Zhao Jin to sit in the house with Xiao Chu, but Zhao Jin resolutely refused, so he sat in the courtyard. Sitting in the room with two women, Zhao Jin, a man, felt embarrassed. He was sitting in the courtyard, and it seemed that he was moving goods to the guys. Looking at the wide back door, it is also possible to purchase and unload goods here. There was a carriage outside the back door, which made Zhao Jin feel that he had come in right, if he was not careful, Lin Xiaochu would have slipped away.
Fang Xiang and Xiao Chu looked at him outside the house, and Xiao Chu told Fang Xiang: "It's a stalker, let him sit in the yard, I'll stay up with him for a few days to see if he still stare." "Why isn't it summer on this day, let him lie down in the yard, or it will be windy and rainy, let him drench. It's just to stay under the porch, it's as hot as it should be, and it's as hot as the wind.
After hearing the fragrance, he smiled, and whispered to Xiao Chu: "Look at me." Just when a guy came in and said something important, Fang Xiang explained to him: "Is the hot sauce time to be made, take advantage of this day, there will be a few days before it is ready." The guy went out, Xiao Chu couldn't help but smile and said: "This is a good idea, I heard Sun Erhai talk to him, he seems to be a person from the south, I don't know if he has been in Beijing for a few years, and he will eat chili peppers." Aroma is also happy: "Let him keep an eye on him, this one doesn't work, I have other goods." β
Piles of peppers began to be brought out of the yard, and two or three guys began to stomp. The smell of chili peppers spread in the air, and even people passing by on the street sneezed and said, "This is amazing!" Zhao Jin first covered his nose with a handkerchief, and then stood a few steps away. The guys all gathered around their faces, and only Zhao Jin stayed here to suffer.
Xiao Chu also had to sneeze in the house, laughing while looking for incense to smell. A quarter of an hour later, I saw that Zhao Jin really walked out. Xiao Chu and Fang Xiang smiled and leaned back: "Let you keep an eye on you." Zhao Jin walked out, stood on the street and was surprised, Sun Erhai disappeared with the carriage. Where did Sun Erhai go? Zhao Jin didn't worry about it. The second lady didn't let me stare at him, so I only stared at Lin Xiaochu.
I stood at the door for a while, and then walked in to see that Xiao Chu was still there. I wanted to stare at the back door, but I thought that the front door could also leave. Zhao Jin had a hard time this afternoon. After the peppers were cut, the stinky brine was placed in the yard again. This is not a specialty of the capital, but the things in Qin Ji's shop are too miscellaneous. The stinky brine is dried in the yard and can only be smelled by those who go to the yard. Every time Zhao Jin came in, he felt dizzy in his brain, his eyes tightened, and he couldn't stay for a moment.
After more than an hour, he saw the carriage come back again, and Sun Erhai smiled leisurely, as if he had a good afternoon. Zhao Jin was extremely angry and came over to reproach Sun Erhai: "Where have you gone?" When he walked in, he smelled a smell of alcohol, and Zhao Jin was even more angry: "Do you dare to drink on an errand?" Sun Erhai was not angry, and said with a smile: "Follow her out, you just wait, she won't come out until the sun goes down." How hot it is in summer, although it is cool on this day, it will be cold quickly. She eats and drinks in her room, why do I drink outside? β
Zhao Jin didn't speak, Sun Erhai squinted at him: "Next time we go together, the big burning jar in Beijing tastes good." The peanuts are crispy, and they are called fragrant. Zhao Jin heard the Venus in front of him, and dared to love these two people in the name of going out, and they really came out to play.
Sure enough, as Sun Erhai said, Xiao Chu sat until the sun went down before he came out. The cool breeze rises in the streets, and as soon as the sun sets in autumn, the temperature plummets. Although Zhao Jin is a man who can tolerate cold, this treatment of drinking wind makes him angry. I saw Xiao Chu and the proprietress in this shop come out hand in hand, and said goodbye at the door affectionately. The proprietress is quite charming, and she is reluctant to give up on Xiao Chu: "You don't watch dinner, why do you have to go back so early?" Next time, I'll have dinner before leaving. I still haven't told you a lot of things, Zhang Wu's sister-in-law gave birth to a baby, and Qian Sanmei went to seek Buddha, but I didn't tell you this. β
Zhao Jin was extremely angry, and after talking all afternoon, he still had something to say. Besides, this fifth sister-in-law gave birth to a doll, and Qian Sanmei went to seek Buddha, are these things worth saying? On the way back, Zhao Jin asked Xiao Chu in the car with a calm face: "What kind of errand did you do this afternoon?" Xiao Chu was still unhappy: "You have to be familiar with people in business, and she knows a lot of people." Zhao Jin couldn't help but be angry: "Yes, yes." The people she knows, Zhang Wusao, and Qian Sanmei.
Sun Erhai drove the car, listened to each of them, and slowly smiled.
