Li An's movements paused, and then he turned around, the young man's clear eyes had a hint of doubt, "Xu family? The Xu family that my aunt frequented? As if smiling bitterly, he said lightly: "My aunt is in charge of everything at home." ”

The implication is that he can't control anything. However, this marriage event is no more important than anything else, how can you not know anything? Thinking about Wang Niangzi's seemingly benevolent face, Lin Zhenniang couldn't help frowning, and felt even more that the woman who secretly treated Li An was not a kind person. Because of such thoughts, she didn't think about it more, and said directly:

"You haven't heard of it at all? Mrs. Wang seems to have wanted Tao Yu to marry the little lady of the Xu family! ”

Li An's eyebrows were raised, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Xiaohua has overheard some, Brother Alcohol is very happy!" Yesterday, he also said that he wanted to sneak a peek at what the little lady of the Xu family looked like......" After a pause, he said again: "But what Brother Alcohol is most happy about is that his aunt promised him that if he marries the little lady of the Xu family, he can buy whatever he wants......"

After saying this, the young man's face was a little impressive, as if he felt that it was a little bad to say bad things about people behind his back. Although he was unfair, this young man was always like a blank piece of paper, full of pure white color.

Looking at Li An, Lin Zhenniang leaned over with a smile, "Then have you heard that the little lady of the Xu family did not fall in love with the little fat man of the Tao family at all, but - fell in love with you!" ”

Li An was stunned, looked at Lin Zhenniang, and didn't speak for a while. It wasn't until the little crow in his hand let out a low cry that he seemed to react and let go of his reddened hand.

The little lady laughed with me againβ€”how could it be? I haven't even seen the little lady of the Xu family - if this kind of thing is spread, it will ruin the reputation of others. ”

Yo, is this defending Xu Lian or pretending......

Smiling lowly, Lin Zhenniang tilted her head to look at Li An with some bad intentions, because of the young man's youthful reaction, she was very interested in teasing. I just feel that this brother-like teenager is amused, and it makes her feel like she has returned to the time when she was in the orphanage of the future generations - it is not without interesting things to recall!

"Are you an old master? There is no one else here, and you have to pretend to be reserved in front of me! Ang Lee, I'm your gang now, and I want to help you - if that's the case, you won't tell me the truth, and you'll regret it later. ”

Li An flattened his mouth, don't overdo it, he seemed to have some temperament, "What do you regret?" ”

"Of course, I regret missing a good marriage!" Dissatisfied with Li An's attitude, Lin Zhenniang directly pulled him on the shoulder, "Are you very happy in the Tao family now?" I see, just your aunt - hmph, it's okay not to be together! Although the Xu family is just a small business, they have always been a good person. The sister of the Xu family is also beautiful, lively and enthusiastic, and can speak well, let alone now, even if you are admitted to the Jinshi in the future, become a big official, and be a lady in one fell swoop......"

Seeing that Ang Li's face was getting more and more ugly, Lin Zhenniang did not flinch, but asked as if she suddenly understood: "Don't you think that being a son-in-law, especially a businessman's son-in-law, is too criticized, and you are afraid of being looked down upon?" ”

Theoretically, it is not difficult to guess such thoughts.

Although the Great Song Dynasty was not as strict as later generations in the imperial examination, even Feng Jing, the champion of Lianzhong Sanyuan four years ago, was the son of a merchant. At that time, Prime Minister Fu Bi loved Feng Jing's talent and married his daughter to him. However, compared with the son-in-law of this merchant, there is still a layer of inferiority. Although there is no ban on sons-in-law participating in the imperial examination, it is not very nice to say it. Maybe it's because from ancient times to the present, most of the people whose families are poor and can't marry wives will get rich, right?

Looking at Li An, Lin Zhenniang frowned, but she really planned for Li An, "Perhaps, some people will make irresponsible remarks, but those gossips, what do you care about him?" Left and right are just some irrelevant people, and the most important thing is not to live your own life, right? If you want me to say, if you really marry Sister Xu, she will definitely treat you very well - Xu Guanren and Wen Niangzi also treat you like a half-child......"

Because of Lin Zhenniang's words, Li An, who had always had a calm face, suddenly smiled. The originally blocked heart suddenly relaxed, he looked at Lin Zhenniang, and said gently: "It's been a long time since anyone thought about me like this...... "In addition to his deceased parents, who else is so worried about his future, not asking for anything in return, just thinking about his good, and even saying it so bluntly, without thinking about whether he will be unhappy......

Looking at Lin Zhenniang, Li An felt an indescribable emotion in his heart. Obviously, it's just a neighbor who has only known each other for a short time. When I first saw her, I thought that although this little lady was not bad-hearted, she was too domineering, and she spoke impatiently and directly, leaving no room for anyone. But in just a few months, he felt that the little lady in front of him was already a true friend who could be deeply befriended to support his wealth.

Smiling slightly, Li An's eyes were clear, but he still refused: "Zhenniang, I know that you are thinking about me to say such things, but although your many considerations are not unreasonable, it is not what I want." ”

Lin Zhenniang frowned when she heard this, but she didn't interrupt him Li An's words were slow, obviously after consideration. Such a good thing, I'm afraid that many people want to squeeze their heads, but no matter how good the thing is, if people don't want to, it's not good-ah, he actually called her name like that! No longer still calls the little lady politely with three points.

Looking at Lin Zhenniang, Li An just said lightly: "When my father died, he once said that he hoped that I would revive my family's reputation, even if I couldn't be famous in the world, I would be a person who could benefit the township at the worst......" After a pause, he smiled: "Actually, I don't know how to do it." Therefore, if you want to benefit the township, you must first take the Jinshi examination. If you win the Jinshi, even if you are just a small county magistrate, you will definitely be able to benefit the township - so it is my wish to be a good official and protect the water and soil. I've always worked hard like this......"

"But now, after coming to Dingtao, I realized that it turns out that benefiting the party does not necessarily have to be admitted to the Jinshi." He tilted his head, as if thinking: "Like Master An, he used to be a scholar, and he also thought about Zhongjinshi, but later he became a small official." And now, although he has taken a detour, he has become an official again...... Like Liu Yuan, although he is just a businessman, Zhiweixuan's dim sum makes everyone who has eaten it smile. And that honeycomb coal, how many people have spent a warm winter because of thisβ€”ah, and you, those coolies in Xiamenqiao don't know where to eat if they don't have a 'good food to come again'......"

Looking at Lin Zhenniang, who was staring at him, Li An blinked, and there was a bit of shame on his face, "You have all done well, and I want to do better - although I don't know if I can be promoted to the rank of jinshi in the future, and whether I can become a good official, but I really want to try to see how far I can go......"

Lin Zhenniang sighed softly, tilted her head, and suddenly laughed.

She still thinks that Ang Lee is not a person who is good at words! But it turns out that it can also be said in this way. But, what a beautiful thing to say! It turned out that she even opened a small shop to benefit the township......

couldn't help grinning, she patted Ang Lee on the shoulder very well, "Your ideal is not bad!" With an ideal, there is hope for it to be realized - well, you will be a good official......"

Li An's face was a little red, "That, what you said just now - I, I know you are for my good ......" The young man who was obviously talking about marriage just now couldn't erase his face, probably really felt that it was too embarrassing to say this to Lin Zhenniang, he hesitated for a while, and finally said: "Anyway, I don't want this now-"

"If you don't want to, you don't want to!" Lin Zhenniang didn't care, although she gossiped, but she didn't have to force others to accept her opinion. touched Li An with her elbow, and she laughed: "I think about it, but I will regret it in vain in the future." ”

Li An pursed his lips, "Then you ......" only said two words, he swallowed, lowered his head, and seemed to be unable to stay any longer, "I, I'll go first......"

"Going? Then this crow ......" Seeing the young man break out of the door without looking back, Lin Zhenniang couldn't help but shake her head. looked at the crow on the table who tilted his head to look at her, and couldn't help but reach out and poke it, "You be honest, if you are disobedient, I will roast you and eat ...... first"

Although she said so, Lin Zhenniang still left the injured blackbird.

Chasing into the courtyard, Lin Zhenniang picked up the lantern, watched Li An climb the ladder and climbed over the wall, listened to him climb down the ladder, and knocked on the wall with his hand, she was relieved.

Sticking the lantern aside, she clumsily put away the ladder. Turning out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the main room was quietly lit up a little dim.

Hey, did you wake up your mother?

put the ladder down, Lin Zhenniang didn't send the ladder to the front yard, just put out the lantern and turned into the main room.

Chen, who was sitting on the bed in clothes, beckoned, and when Lin Zhenniang approached, he lowered his voice and asked, "Can the side room be raised?" ”

Lin Zhenniang was stunned, although she shook her head intuitively, she couldn't help laughing. It seems that Chen didn't just wake up, so he thought he endured it until Li An left and then called her in, right?

Don't think about it, my mother didn't like what she did just now, but she still didn't make a noise like this, and she was afraid that she would alarm Ruyu and ruin her reputation - it was really her own mother.

Looking at Lin Zhenniang's smile, Chen couldn't help but poke a finger on her head, "Still laughing?" You girl, you're getting bolder now! ”

It's just that she can't be disciplined as a mother, and she has to be ......

Shaking his head, Chen put his arms around Lin Zhenniang and wrapped her body directly in the quilt, ignoring that she had just entered the house from outside, and her body was as cold as ice.

"Zhenniang, tell your mother, which one do you like? Is it Ah Yuan or this Ang Lee? ”

Lin Zhenniang, who was already lying in Chen's arms, was shocked when she heard this, and she hurriedly turned over and sat up, "Mother, what are you talking about?" ”

When did Chen become so gossipy? Or did someone say something strange in front of her? Okay, why did it come to her? (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to () subscribe, reward, your support is my biggest motivation. )
