Chapter 103: The Pickle Boy

.. org, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the full court cuckoo red!

Qiaozhen is fifteen, and Tang Gongzi is twenty-one, and the difference between the two is six years old, which is not very much.

His mother's family is just an ordinary farmer, and the Tang family has a workshop and a shop, if it weren't for the older ones, I'm afraid it wouldn't be Qiaozhen's turn.

As soon as Xie thought about this, he felt that it was feasible, and said to the matchmaker: "Qiaozhen is my niece, and I can't be my aunt about her family affairs, so I need to ask my eldest brother and sister-in-law's opinion, and I also ask my eldest sister to come back in two days to listen to the letter." ”

In the event of marriage, it is legitimate for parents to make decisions, and this reason is reasonable.

The matchmaker left with a smile on her face.

After Liu Qingyan arrived at the workshop, she explained the matter to the uncle and his wife.

Xie Chungui's thoughts are basically the same as Xie's, but they still have to see each other.

Two days later, the matchmaker came to the door again, and Xie said that his brother and sister-in-law had asked to see each other.

The matchmaker went to the man's side to reply again, and then came to Liu's house to set a date, and went back and forth a few times, and finally set the day to see each other.

The party Qiaozhen has always maintained a light attitude towards her family affairs, and she can't tell whether she is happy or unhappy.

Looking at this day, Liu Qingyan deliberately stayed at home and did not go to the workshop, wanting to see who the Tang Gongzi was, and he had not yet decided to marry, which was rare in ancient feudal society.

Today, Xie dressed up Qiaozhen carefully, Qiaozhen is her niece, and she also hopes that Qiaozhen can find a good family.

Qiaozhen's appearance was originally delicate, and after dressing up, she added a bit of beauty, which can be regarded as a passable little jasper.

Xie Chungui and his family came to Liu's house with Liu Qingyan last night.

Now that I don't make koji rice noodles at home, Liu Zhai is also as formal as other people's homes, and the guests are in the front yard living room.

On the man's side, in addition to Tang Gongzi himself, his parents also came, of course, including the rich wife who pulled the strings from it, and the living room was full of people.

The skillful matchmaker was busy maneuvering around, asking Tang Gongzi to greet everyone in the Liu family and greeted everyone for a while.

"Tang Gongzi's first few are sisters, and there is no brother to help in the family's business, and he takes care of himself in the workshop and shop, so the family affairs have been delayed, and now his father and mother are old, and they are anxious to hold their grandson, so he knows that he is in a hurry." The matchmaker introduced on the one hand, and explained clearly the reason why Tang Gongzi had not married for a long time.

Liu Qingyan glanced at Tang Gongzi and found that he was really as thoughtful as the matchmaker said, barely handsome, and a little bookish, obviously knowledgeable and polite, but his demeanor was a little restrained.

The rich lady also hurriedly smiled and said, "My nephew is usually not like this, he is clever in business, but he can't let go when he hears that he is going to see the girl today." ”

Still an honest man!

Liu Qingyan looked at Tang Gongzi's red-faced appearance and snickered in her heart.

Xie Shi and Xie Chungui exchanged glances, and they could see that they were satisfied.

Seeing this situation, Mrs. Tang felt a little regretful that the courtesy she brought today was light, "The first time I came to the door, I didn't know what to take, so I brought a few new pickles from my own workshop, and I hope I don't dislike it." ”

It's just a matter of looking at each other, success or failure is still a saying, and it is human nature to give away valuable losses.

Xie Shi was busy thanking her, and now she is the wife of the Liu family, and she is the one who entertains guests.

"The Tang family's pickle shop, Qinxiangyuan, is well-known in the city, and Tang Gongzi likes to get some fresh pickles in the style, and there are many rich and noble families who come to buy them back to eat." The matchmaker is clever and tongue-in-cheek.

Her words cleverly concealed her embarrassment, and she was able to praise Tang Gongzi, saying that although she was making pickles, her business was not small.

Xie hurriedly politely said again, and asked his mother-in-law to call Qiaozhen out.

Looking at each other, of course, is looking at each other, you can't just let you look at the man, and not let the man look at the woman.

Qiaozhen bowed her head and walked into the living room, saluted the guests and stood aside, without saying a word, and not looking at the appearance of Tang Gongzi.

Mrs. Tang felt a little unpleasant in her heart, and her personality was too ungenerous, and her face changed slightly.

The matchmaker's eyes were bright, and she hurriedly came out to play a round, "The girl of the Xie family is born quiet, and it is the first time she has experienced such a thing, and it is common to be shy." In fact, it is also good to be quiet, not to stir up trouble and make the family restless, and to be a good candidate for a good wife and mother. ”

The last sentence was said by looking at Mrs. Tang.

Mrs. Tang thought about it, and felt that what the matchmaker said also made some sense, and it was better to find an obedient daughter-in-law than to find someone who jumped up and down all day long, and moved her tongue.

She then turned her gaze to Tang Gongzi, wanting to see her son's reaction.

Although Tang Gongzi's cheeks were red, his eyes always looked at Qiaozhen, and the girl with a demure temperament was exactly what he thought.

Mrs. Tang was overjoyed in her heart and glanced at Master Tang.

Old Man Tang smiled and nodded his head.

Seeing each other is just a formality, not to be decided in person, and the follow-up matters still rely on the matchmaker to move around.

The people on the Tang family's side sat down for a while, and then said goodbye and left.

When Tang Gongzi was leaving, he also glanced at Qiaozhen, a little embarrassed.

Liu Qingyan looked at it in her eyes and thought that there was a chance that this family business could be successful.

But when Xie Chungui and his wife asked Qiao Zhen, Qiao Zhen still lowered her head and kept silent.

Cai's suddenly became impatient, poked his daughter's head, and taught him loudly: "That Tang Gongzi looks good-looking, and people look honest and kind, and his family background is better than ours, I don't know how many times better, it's really a good family affair that is difficult to find with a lantern, you still don't agree with such a person, what do you want to find?" ”

Qiao Zhen pursed her lips, but still didn't open her mouth.

Cai was so angry that he stomped his feet, "Whether you like it or not, your father and I are willing, wait for the matchmaker to ask for an answer, and that's it." ”

Qiaozhen didn't speak, and tears fell down her eyes.

Cai's was so angry that she couldn't do anything, muttering how she could give birth to this girl.

Xie Shi also didn't understand, and looked at Qiaozhen with a suspicious face.

Liu Qingyan's heart sank, and she guessed that Qiaozhen still couldn't forget Li Guang.

But Li Guang has not seen any news in the past six months, and he is obviously not interesting to Qiaozhen!

She thought about it and ran to the cup to find Li Lanqing.

Li Lanqing heard her sister say that Qiaozhen was obsessed with Li Guang, and she also felt a little incredible.

As soon as the two brothers and sisters are combined, they have to go to Li Guang to ask clearly, if they are completely bored with Qiaozhen, it is okay to let Qiaozhen die of this heart and marry with peace of mind.

At that moment, Li Lanqing went to Linshui Town.

The business of the cup is booming, and it is not possible to keep accounts without a person who can read and break words, so Liu Qingyan has to stay in the shop and watch.

After a while, I saw Wang Xiaoer coming swaying.

"Little second brother, I haven't seen you for many days, you are getting more and more energetic." Liu Qingyan greeted with a smile and asked Jiahua to pour tea.

Wang Xiaoer is wearing a new set of clothes today, and he is quite neatly tied.

"It's Miss Liu, why do you have time to come to the shop today?" Wang Xiaoer leaned on the counter and looked around, as if he was looking for someone.

Liu Qingyan said: "My brother went to do something else, and I will replace him for a day." ”

Jiahua held a cup of tea and put it next to Wang Xiaoer, "Little second brother, please use tea." ”

Wang Xiaoer thanked him, rubbed his fingers on the door of his head twice, and said casually: "I haven't seen the wine girl for a long time, I don't know how she is doing recently?" ”

"She teaches the workers to make wine in the workshop, and it's very good."

After Liu Qingyan answered, she always felt that something was wrong, so she looked at Wang Xiaoer with puzzled eyes.

Wang Xiaoer was panicked, and his face turned red unconsciously.

Liu Qingyan suddenly understood that Wang Xiaoer cleaned up so neatly for the sake of wine.

When did the two of them have a situation again?

After muttering in her heart, she smiled and said: "The workshop has just started a few days ago, and the wine is a little busy, and when it is not busy for a while, I will ask her to find you." ”

When Wang Xiaoer heard this, his face turned even redder, and he hurriedly said: "I just asked casually, not what I meant." ”

That's not what you mean, what are you ashamed of!

Liu Qingyan pursed her lips.

At this time, two drinkers came in the shop, and Wang Xiaoer hurriedly said, 'There is still something', and took the opportunity to leave.

At noon, the mother-in-law of the family came to deliver the meal, and there was a plate of pickles, which was said to be sent by the Tang family.

After Liu Qingyan tasted it, she found that the taste was really good, and it seemed that the Tang family's pickles were not in vain.

In the afternoon, Liu Lanqing came back and said that Li Guang was not at home and followed his father to talk about business in other places.

Therefore, Qiaozhen's affairs can only depend on her own creation.

On the second day, the matchmaker really came to Liu's house again.

"The old lady of the Tang family is very satisfied with Miss Qiaozhen, and Tang Gongzi is even more devoted, urging me to listen to the news, they are all waiting for my reply!"

The matchmaker waved a handkerchief and giggled, if this family affair was successful, her thank you matchmaker would have a lot of money.

Cai had already discussed with Xie Chungui that this matter could not be determined by Qiaozhen's temperament, and the two of them told Xie their decision before going back to the workshop, and when the matchmaker came, they said that they agreed.

"Then trouble the old sister to reply to the Tang family, my eldest brother and sister-in-law will allow this family matter." Xie said with a smile.

The matchmaker smiled even brighter, patted her chest and said, "It's not me bragging, this Tang family is really an excellent family." Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang are kind and easy to get along with, and when Miss Qiaozhen marries in the past, she must have fallen into the nest of blessings. ”

"Thanks to the old sister, I bother you to run around, you can buy a bowl of tea to drink." Xie took out a handful of money and stuffed it to the matchmaker.

"Mrs. is polite, I do errand work, and I am very tired and not tired." The matchmaker took it and thanked her with a smile, and then asked Xie for Qiaozhen's Geng post, and took it and left.

said that if the eight characters matched, the Tang family would immediately come to propose marriage.

A few days later, the matchmaker came to the door again and informed her that the eight characters had been correct, and the Tang family had set a date for the proposal.

But the problem arises again.

Qiaozhen is not from the Liu family, so it is naturally impossible for her to come to the Liu family, so she can only go to Huangzhuao.

So, the matchmaker made another trip to ask the Tang family's opinion.

"Alas, this Tang Gongzi is really infatuated with Miss Qiaozhen, it doesn't matter where he goes, he just wants to marry Miss Qiaozhen earlier." The matchmaker waved her handkerchief in a signature way.

"In this case, I will let my eldest brother and sister-in-law go to the house to prepare." Xie took out another handful of money.

It didn't work out, and a lot of money was lost.

When everyone took active action against Qiaozhen's marriage, Qiaozhen's own attitude towards family affairs was always lukewarm and resigned to it.

It's really that the emperor is not in a hurry, and he is in a hurry to die of eunuchs.
