Chapter 104 Coming or Not Coming
Zeng Haiqi realized that something was wrong and let go of Xie Jiangqi's arm, Xie Siyun was also busy pulling Xie Jiangqi aside, and several people walked towards the teahouse together.
It was still early, so a few people sat down and asked for a pot of tea and a few snacks.
Everyone else is okay to say, but Zeng Haiqi always has a hanging face, as if everyone else owes him money.
Xie Jiangqi kept his head down and was worried, Chu Yue and Xie Siyun glanced at each other, but it was Xie Siyun who opened his mouth to Zeng Haiqi first: "Okay, now let's talk calmly, what happened?" ”
The word calm seems to be of little use to Zeng Haiqi.
He looked at Xie Siyun with wide eyes: "Your Xie family has a big business, and you actually want to use a little girl as a bargaining chip?" It's really an eye-opener for me, I have already told Qingyan that you are not good people, and now it has really come true! ”
While scolding, he pointed at Xie Jiangqi with his finger: "As soon as I arrived in the county just now, I saw your Xie family's carriage. A fierce mother-in-law pushed her off the car, saying that she was going to give it to the surnamed Zhou, in exchange for the benefits of your Xie family's three rooms. The car is your Xie family's car, and everyone is sitting here, so you still have to quibble and deny it?! ”
What's going on!?
Although the surname Zhou said that he wanted Xie Jiangqi to accompany him, from the beginning, Chu Yue and Xie Siyun never thought of asking Xie Jiangqi to come over.
"What the hell is going on?"
Xie Siyun also sank his face, but looked at Xie Jiangqi: "You just have to tell me and your sister-in-law, otherwise you won't even be able to go home today!" ”
When Xie Jiangqi raised his head, his eyes were red.
Like a frightened little rabbit, he looked at Xie Siyun with blank eyes: "Yes...... The second aunt sent me. ”
In fact, Chu Yue could almost guess what was going on, and I am afraid that it was the Xie family's bad idea.
Zeng Haiqi over there couldn't help but open his mouth in a hurry: "Look! What should I say?! You are also shameless! For that money, my sister can sell it? Who is the surname Zhou? Who doesn't know who doesn't know Dongzhou City?! With your sister's physique, she will be tortured to death in less than two days under his hands, do you know?! ”
"That's not the case, don't be angry!"
Xie Jiangqi is also raised in the boudoir on weekdays and rarely goes out to see people, where has he ever seen Zeng Haiqi with such a posture?
He panicked for a moment and waved his hand to calm Zeng Haiqi down.
But Zeng Haiqi was used to it, so he naturally didn't listen to Xie Jiangqi.
In the end, Xie Siyun snorted coldly, and his cold eyes looked at Zeng Haiqi like a sword: "Shut up, listen to my sister first!" ”
Zeng Haiqi was stunned, glanced at the poor Xie Jiangqi, and his heart softened, in the end, he didn't go overboard, as if he was angry, but in fact, he really didn't say a word anymore.
Xie Jiangqi had a chance to continue talking, and tears fell from his eyes: "Last night, the eldest aunt and the second aunt came to our fourth room together, saying that anyway, my grandfather has promised me to be a concubine for the Zhou family, and tomorrow my brother and sister-in-law will come to the county to see the surnamed Zhou, let me come with me, anyway, I will always marry in the future, and now it is always good to do something for the family." ”
She took a deep breath, took the handkerchief handed by Zeng Haiqi and wiped her tears: "After they left, my mother said that my brother and sister-in-law would never sell me to the surname Zhou, so I was relieved." If my brother and sister-in-law never came to me, I knew that I didn't have to go to see the man surnamed Zhou, and I was still happy in my heart. ”
Sitting there, her pitiful appearance was pitiful: "When I got up early this morning, I heard that my brother and sister-in-law had already set off, and I knew what you meant, and I was grateful to you in my heart." But while my mother and I were having breakfast, my second aunt led someone to break into the door, tied me to the carriage without saying anything, and said that she was going to send me to my surname Zhou. ”
Speaking of this, her tears fell like beads with broken threads: "My aunt personally escorted me all the way here, and I was originally going to be sent directly to the surname Zhou." Later, I met ...... Zeng Shaoxia, this saved me. I wanted to explain to him, but he was very angry all the way, and it was only then that such a misunderstanding occurred, and I didn't make it clear. ”
She cried more and more sadly, and what could anyone present bear to blame her?
That Zeng Haiqi's face finally couldn't hang up, and he scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "No...... Didn't the two of them ask you to come? I thought ......"
"Why do you think?!"
Now, it was Chu Yue's turn to be a little angry: "If she came together, how could she appear in someone else's carriage?" You're good at everything, but you're always so impulsive. If Xie Siyun and I really want Xiao Qi to come over, can you still save her? I sent her to the surname Zhou early, and it was your turn to be a hero to save the beauty? ”
These words made Zeng Haiqi, who had always been short-tempered, blush.
Although he was a little twisted and seemed to be very reluctant, in the end, Zeng Haiqi still hugged his fist at Chu Yue and Xie Siyun: "That...... I'm sorry I misunderstood you. ”
Okay, although I don't feel very sincere when I feel hungry, it is good to be able to get him to apologize.
As soon as his words fell, Xie Siyun raised his head, as if he remembered something: "What happened to your second aunt and them?" ”
That's right, Zeng Haiqi's temper......
Speaking of the second room of the Xie family, Zeng Haiqi became angry, and waved his fist in front of them: "Naturally, I beat them up and threw them on the side of the road." ”
It sounds ridiculous, but it's refreshing!
The one in the second room looked soft and weak on weekdays, and he hadn't done anything in his own family yet, so he came to provoke Xie Jiangqi. It seems that she still thinks that their second room is not messy enough!
Although Zeng Haiqi's character of using violence to solve all problems, Chu Yue didn't like it.
But he saved Xie Jiangqi today, so they naturally still have to thank him.
After inviting a meal of refreshments and thanking them a thousand times, Chuyue and Xie Siyun were ready to go to the banquet held by the surname Zhou.
Before going, they deliberately put Xie Jiangqi at an inn at the entrance of the official office, and asked her to wait for a while, waiting for them to come back and pick her up and go home together.
Xie Jiangqi is well-behaved on weekdays, and Chu Yue and Xie Siyun don't have to worry about her running around, but when they went out, they met Zeng Haiqi again.
This time, without waiting for Chu Yue and Xie Siyun to ask anything, Zeng Haiqi explained first: "I came to this inn to meet a friend, not to follow you!" ”
This man is really strange, just say that it is good to see if they have protected Xie Jiangqi, what are you hiding like this?
However, Chu Yue and Xie Siyun did not demolish this extremely face-saving man, and they also got into the carriage together and headed towards the Drunken Immortal Residence.
Because Xie Jiangqi's matter was delayed a little, when they arrived at the Drunken Immortal Residence, they found that the surnamed Zhou and the two vendors had already taken their seats.
The surnamed Zhou stood up and introduced the two to Xie Siyun and Chu Yue with a big belly.
One of them, a tall and thin man who looked very shrewd, was called Yuan Chengji, a native of Nanzhou City. Mainly engaged in Yiying jewelry in Nanzhou City, most of the jewelry in Nanzhou has to pass through his hands before it is sold everywhere. Especially for pearls, he is also a good hand at identifying the value of pearls, and he is also a collector of precious special-shaped pearls.
There was also a man of medium stature, smiling and looking very kind, but with a large terrible burn mark on the right side of his chin. His name was "Pang Bin", and he was a native of Kyoto, but he was based in the city of Dongzhou.
His ancestors had the craft of making hairpin rings, and I heard that his grandfather had served in the palace and was an old craftsman who made hairpin rings for the concubines.
Now he has his own workshop in Dongzhou City, which includes almost all the craftsmen of good crafts in the eastern part of Ye Kingdom. They gathered all the gold, silver and gemstones, and then used their skillful hands to create intricately carved ornaments to sell. They also have a high demand for a wide variety of pearls, and the demand is stable.
I have to say that the two people surnamed Zhou are businessmen who have some real skills and can help them sell well.
But obviously, these two wanted to look at the face of the surnamed Zhou, and the surname Zhou had a better attitude towards Chu Yue and Xie Siyun, so they smiled.
The surnamed Zhou saw that Xie Jiangqi didn't come, and his face collapsed, and the expressions of the two became serious and cold.
didn't even give tea to Chu Yue and Xie Siyun, the one surnamed Zhou just looked outside: "Didn't you say that Xiao Qi is coming today?" Why didn't you bring her? ”
Xie Siyun's face remained unchanged, he poured a cup of tea for Chu Yue, and coughed lightly with the teapot: "Two days ago, Xiao Qi occasionally felt cold, and this morning he started to have a fever again, so he can't say anything." ”
"Oh, really?"
The surnamed Zhou squinted: "Then you should let her come over, after all, there are more famous doctors in this county than in your Pearl Village, and she came and asked me to take a good look at her and take care of her." ”
"Mr. Zhou said he was smiling!"
Xie Siyun sat down, and his tone was not hurried: "Sir, you should have heard of the reputation of the two famous doctors, Yin Yuwan and Qi Duo. Now they are all in Pearl Village, Xiaoqi has them to take care of them, and please rest assured that Mr. is. ”
"Hmph-"
The expression surnamed Zhou became more and more impatient: "In this way, Brother Si Yun is afraid that he didn't understand what I meant that day." Our business...... It's not negotiable, is it? ”
As soon as he said this, the two of them also nodded again and again, looking like they were going to look at the face of the surname Zhou.
But in this regard, without waiting for Xie Siyun to say anything, Chu Yue smiled a little disdainfully: "It is said that Mr. Yuan and Mr. Pang are also big businessmen, so they can't just put the fat in front of them and not eat them, but they have to pick those expensive and skinny meats, what is the reason?" ”
