Since taking over the medical hall, Xue Chengyu has deeply felt that it is not easy for Master Xue, and in the ten days since the handover of the task, half of the affairs that need to be handled have piled up half of the book. During the period, he also caught up with the delivery of the pharmacist, in order to be able to separate the new and old medicinal materials in the warehouse one by one, Xu Hong was busy before and after, and he was unable to do anything, and he couldn't wait to give birth to three heads and six arms. The accounts of the medical hall were also scribbled, which caused a lot of trouble to Xue Chengyu, who counted the accounts later, and he had a headache at the end of the day.

After seven days of hurrying, the affairs in the medical hall were resolved, and it was rare to rest Xue Chengyu did not go to the medical hall, and asked Xu Hong to accompany him to watch the cherry blossoms in the courtyard.

This year's new cherry blossoms are blooming more vigorously than last year, and the cherry blossoms fall on the branches, pressing the delicate branches out of the arc, and bending like lanterns.

Xu Hong knew how to bring a pot of tea very funny, and the two of them enjoyed the flowers while tasting tea, not to mention how elegant they were, but unfortunately this scene did not last long before it was broken.

The actual situation is just as Master Xue said, after the outside world learned that Xue Chengyu took over half of the Xue family, there were more and more people who flattered and stammered, and there were many families who had girls in the boudoir who came to say goodbye, and the threshold of the Xue Mansion was once again in danger of being stepped on.

At first, the matchmaker came to the door and said that Master Xue was still helping to stop him, but in the end, he couldn't stop them and pushed them all to Xue Chengyu to solve. After all, it was Xue Chengyu who didn't want to bloom peach blossoms outside, so it was still the pleasure of him cutting off the flower branches with his own hands.

But these people are becoming more and more courageous, and they still don't give up after being rejected, and find various reasons to come and see each other every once in a while. Xue Chengyu was annoyed, and he didn't care if he was rude or not, and he closed the door directly, and no one could knock on it.

After closing the door for two or three days, the number of people visiting outside gradually decreased, and Xue Chengyu ordered someone to reopen the gate of Xue's mansion. Xue Chengyu is very close to the Chamber of Commerce, only Master Luo's family has many daughters, and the other families have a group of sons, otherwise it will not be good-looking if he refuses, and he can bear it in the future.

Xue Chengyu had just filled the teacup with tea, and as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw a subordinate outside the courtyard leading a slightly short and fat woman towards the courtyard. Xue Chengyu took a sip of tea, looked at it and began to worry.

Xu Hong noticed that Xue Chengyu's expression had changed, and asked softly, "Why are you suddenly worried?" Aren't you thinking about the hospital? ”

Xue Chengyu put down the teacup, shook his head, and motioned to Xu Hong with his eyes to look at the woman who was about to arrive at the entrance of the courtyard, and sighed helplessly: "Mrs. Wang is really persistent...... This is her third visit this month......"

Hearing this, Xu Hong hooked the corners of his mouth, smiled and said nothing, the young master of his family had no choice but to move with emotion and reason in the face of such a persistent and talkable middle-aged woman.

The subordinate took Mrs. Wang to the courtyard slowly, and when Mrs. Wang saw Xue Chengyu, she smiled like a flower, and shook the handkerchief in her hand swaying.

Xue Chengyu was worried when he saw Mrs. Wang, but he couldn't really drive people out, so he had to endure the unhappiness in his heart, give it up, and continue to maintain his former elegance and integrity.

"Chengyu can't go to greet him in person because of his inconvenient legs, and I ask Wang Bingren to forgive me. You sit first, Xiao Hong, and watch the tea. ”

Mrs. Wang took the tea handed over by Xu Hong, sat down slowly, covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Where is Young Master Xue, we are not human, so what are you polite." After speaking, he took a sip of tea, "Do you have any favorites from the young ladies and young masters introduced before?" ”

Xue Chengyu pretended to be embarrassed, bowed his head and thought about it: "It's better not to delay the happiness of people like me, I have to rely on crutches and subordinates to support me when I walk on weekdays, and the girls are all twenty-eight years old, when they are in their prime, how can they marry a lame man and pay for their lives wrong?" ”

Mrs. Wang covered her mouth and smiled again, which made Xue Chengyu feel awkward. are almost forty people, although the charm still exists, they are also, and they are still learning the movements of teenage girls, which is inevitably disgusting.

"Young Master Xue is like an orchid branch and a jade tree, and he is the favorite sweetheart of many girls, how can he dislike you?"

The girl's liking is true but not disgusted is false, Xue Chengyu remembered that when he was not paralyzed, Master Xue told him a family affair. The two families are right, the young lady is virtuous and dignified, how can the two of them be considered talented and beautiful, if they get married in Jiangnan, it must be a good story.

However, when the in-laws knew that he was paralyzed and could not be cured, he immediately withdrew from the marriage, and he suffered a lot of blows because of this matter, and since then he has been reluctant to contact the girls outside, even if he has the color of the city and the country, he will not take a second look.

Besides, now that Xu Hong is taking care of him, outsiders are not as thoughtful as insiders after all, so why bother to get an outsider back.

Xue Chengyu picked up the teacup and took another sip of tea, and said seriously: "Since you insist on bringing me a marriage, I can't stop it, but you have to be clear about one thing now, I am now the next head of the family set by my father, and if you want to be my wife, you must meet the following conditions." ”

Seeing that Xue Chengyu became serious, Mrs. Wang stopped laughing with him, pricked up her ears, and listened seriously.

"In the future, I will take over as the head of the family, not only to deal with the affairs of the family but also to deal with the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce. My wife not only has to be business-savvy but also takes care of the house, can manage the house, serve my father and take care of my brother. If the girl who marries me can stand the empty house alone and endure the boring life, I am willing to marry, if not, don't force others to marry in, this kind of life that you are reluctant to live will not be happy. If you marry a resentful woman, she will be annoyed by dangling in front of my father on weekdays, right? ”

After listening to Xue Chengyu's request, Mrs. Wang smiled very embarrassedly, and it was difficult to say anything for a while. In normal times, they listen to their parents' orders, and the words of the matchmaker set the family affairs, but when they arrived at the Xue family, they came the other way around, if it wasn't for the son's consent, the family affairs would definitely not be possible, and Master Xue's love for his son seemed to be too much.

It took a long time for the matchmaker to come up with words to respond to Xue Chengyu: "Young Master Xue can also be regarded as a piece of filial piety...... This time, I also want to ask Young Master Xue what kind of girl he likes...... Since Young Master Xue asks me so much, I also know it in my heart...... When I get back, tell the ladies of the association......" He stood up, saluted, and prepared to leave.

She has been a matchmaker for more than ten years, and she has never seen a young master as difficult to serve as Xue Chengyu, and the young master who is over twenty years old in the Jiangnan area and has not yet married can not find a second one except for him Xue Dashao. Today's request is like looking for relatives, this is clearly to find a hard-working and hard-working person who does not ask for anything in return, the ladies who want to marry are all ten fingers do not touch the spring water, and the jade people who are favored by their parents at home, how can they manage the house and take care of the housework? Such an obvious excuse, if she can't hear it anymore, the matchmaker for more than ten years will be in vain.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang was about to leave, Xue Chengyu's tense heartstrings finally relaxed, and he looked at Xu Hong, and said, "It's inconvenient for me to get up and send you out of the house in person, so you can take care of it." Xiaohong, you wait for me to send Wang Bingren. ”

"Yes, young master." Xu Hong bowed slightly to Xue Chengyu, and slowly left the courtyard with Mrs. Wang, and when he came back, he looked at Xue Chengyu as if he had changed a person.

Xue Chengyu's hand tapped rhythmically on the table, the clouds on his face did not decrease, and his brows were still furrowed, as if he was still worried about coming to the door to say goodbye.

Xu Hong sat down next to Xue Chengyu, filled him with tea, and asked softly: "The master also said that the young master would not force him if he didn't want to marry him, so he just refused directly, why bother making such an rude request?" ”

Xue Chengyu stopped what he was doing, sighed helplessly, and looked at Xu Hong sadly, "Is it useful after I refuse?" She should come and come. And even if you really marry, you have to marry someone as knowledgeable as Shao Tian's sister, what an important position is Xue Da Shao's grandmother, how can a girl from a wealthy family afford it? ”

Xu Hong heard something tired from Xue Chengyu's words, and his brain paused for a long time before he reflected, and muttered timidly: "It turns out that the young master likes the ...... like the third lady."

As soon as these words came out, Xue Chengyu immediately stayed there, and after a while, he slapped Xu Hong's head like hatred of iron and steel, and Xu Hong was very aggrieved but didn't dare to ask again.

"Sister Shaotian is someone my brother cares about, how can I think of her wrongly? I'm just giving you an example, don't worry about it, Xiaohong......."

Xu Hong rubbed his head and lowered his head, neither speaking nor looking at Xue Chengyu, he was silent like this, as if he wanted to swallow all the grievances just now. Maybe he was too sensitive recently, so he grabbed Xue Chengyu tightly, for fear that he would run away from his hands as soon as he let go.

Even though Master Xue acquiesced to the relationship between them, the world didn't think so. There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest, how can Xue Chengyu be the eldest son without a queen? He can't really live with a man for the rest of his life, right?

Seeing that Xu Hong didn't speak for a long time, Xue Chengyu bent down, looked at Xu Hong tentatively, and asked cautiously: "Xiao Hong, are you angry with me?" ”

Xu Hong pouted and shook his head, that look was very pitiful, Xue Chengyu was reluctant to talk about him again. Xu Hong is like a kitten that is easily injured, the slightest change in the outside world will make him vulnerable, in the past three years in Xue Mansion, Xu Hong has changed a lot, but there is still a cowardly root in his bones. Xue Chengyu is his biggest weakness, and Xue Chengyu's every move is a factor that affects his heartbeat, making Xue Chengyu unable to speak or angry.

Xue Chengyu saw that Xu Hong still ignored him, didn't bother with Xu Hong, reached out and hugged Xu Hong into his arms, gently supported his back, and comforted: "Xiao Hong, don't worry, I won't like women in this life, let alone don't want you." It is enough to love you alone in this life. ”

Xu Hong rubbed into Xue Chengyu's arms, and whispered in an extremely weak voice: "I hope the young master can keep my promise to you......"

"I will." After speaking, another kiss fell on Xu Hong's forehead.

In my life, I can't tolerate other lovers, in this life, only loving Xu Hong is enough.
