A middle-aged woman dressed in gold and silver, dressed in vulgar clothes, walked over, and Fang leaned over to greet her, "Mrs. Wang." ”

The woman covered her mouth and smiled, looked Liu Man'er up and down, and said, "This is your daughter, right?" It's so beautiful. ”

Stared at by her ambiguous and slippery gaze, Liu Man'er only felt very unhappy, and she felt goosebumps all over her body, she felt that this blind date meeting should not be so simple, but she didn't say anything, just nodded quietly with the matchmaker.

"Let's go, everyone is almost here." Mrs. Wang led the two to a small house, in front of which was a bead curtain, from which you could clearly see the situation in the hall.

Because of the arrival of Liu Man'er and the others, the people in this hall began to whisper, to the effect that they were discussing Liu Man'er's appearance.

After a while, some more women came, among them there were fewer of them, most of them were women in their thirties, most of them were veiled, and they were accompanied by maids.

"Okay, everyone is here, ladies choose by themselves, meet the right ones, don't panic, let's discuss it, I have some good offspring here, I will definitely satisfy you." Mrs. Wang said with a smile.

"Mother, it turns out that there are so many girls to choose together?" Liu Man'er asked puzzledly, "Why didn't you tell me before?" ”

"Well, I'm afraid I won't come if you know that." Fang's expression was a little stupid.

Liu Man'er looked helpless, she felt that the Fang clan should have been deceived.

"How much money did you give this matchmaker?" Liu Man'er asked.

"Not much, not much, just ten taels of silver." Fang's voice grew quieter.

"Ten taels of silver is not much? We can all buy a subordinate. Liu Man'er's voice sank, and the other party said: "Mother, let me tell you the truth, I came today to see your happiness and accompany you through a formality, no matter how good the afterlife here is, I will not choose." ”

"How's that going to work?" Fang Shi didn't care about Liu Man'er blaming her, grabbed her clothes, and said: "My mother spent a lot of money to learn that there are good posterity here, or the lady of the house next door told me in private, she said that the offspring here are all good-looking, brave and obedient, you choose one to be Langjun, there is absolutely no problem." ”

"My mother." When Liu Man'er heard Fang's words, she couldn't help but cover her forehead, she was really too honest, the lady next door must have been afraid that she would be lonely, so she chose a good place to have fun, but she was good and brought herself here.

If she was not mistaken, this must have been the place where some rich women in ancient times had fun.

"Mother, this is the place where those women have fun." Liu Man'er whispered in Fang's ear.

"What do you mean?" Fang's mind still didn't turn around, she said: "I asked this matchmaker Wang, and she said that if she likes it, she can take it home." ”

Ahhh

"I won't ask for it anyway, if you like it, just pick one." Liu Man'er didn't explain to her anymore, she said in turn: "I'm still young, mother, you have paid so much for this family, it's time to choose someone to accompany you." ”

"You kid!" Seeing Liu Man'er making fun of her, Fang's face was stiff, unhappy, "I'm for your good, but you think of me like this, am I that kind of person?" I'm still waiting for the imperial court to send me the chastity archway! ”

Seeing that she was really angry, Liu Man'er didn't go on, she said: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, don't do to others what you don't want to do to others, I don't want to, then let's take it as a fun time." ”

"You promised to be good before, but in vain I still dressed you up so beautifully, and the rouge gouache you bought was dozens of taels of silver, and your clothes, said to be the soft smoke Luo in Suzhou and Hangzhou, which is very expensive." When Fang heard that Liu Man'er was just coming to play, he instantly began to feel sorry for his money.

"Okay, okay, don't worry about the money, let's earn it after we spend it." Liu Man'er felt that she was really self-inflicted, there were so many things every day, how could she have time for recreation, now it's okay, but it's really a place for recreation, if it spreads, her reputation will not be guaranteed.

And poor Fang's family, I don't know what the lady next door thinks of her, Liu Man'er thought of this, she couldn't help but want to laugh, forget it, don't tell her, otherwise, Fang's face is so thin, when he learns the truth, he must be extremely ashamed in his heart.

"Mother, let's go, since you don't have this heart, don't entertain others." Liu Man'er stood up as she spoke, she felt that she had learned a lesson, that is, to be sincere, if you want to entertain others, you will put yourself in it.

Seeing that Liu Man'er was so determined, Fang also felt that his behavior was inappropriate, so he also stood up, walked outside, opened the bead curtain, and before he had taken a few steps, the matchmaker Wang came over, and she asked, "What, Mrs. Ye, there are so many good offspring here, don't you have a favorite?" ”

"My daughter doesn't ......" Seeing that the Fang clan was going to speak sincerely, Liu Man'er hurriedly covered her head, staggered over, and said, "Mother, I feel dizzy, let's go back quickly." ”

"Yes, she's not feeling well." Fang also took the opportunity to say, and the two of them walked out with their arms.

"Mrs. Ye." At this time, Mrs. Wang stopped her, and Fang stopped and heard her say, "I didn't like it this time, come back next time." ”

"We'll talk about it then." Fang Shi hurriedly said, and then walked downstairs with Liu Man'er in his arms.

"Mother, don't come next time, don't have anything to do with this matchmaker, she's not a good person." When she went downstairs, Liu Man'er waved away the sedan chair man who was about to meet her, carried her skirt by herself, and said as she walked: "Do you know what you are doing here?" ”

Without waiting for Fang to speak, Liu Man'er said: "This is a brothel, a place dedicated to those amorous women to enjoy, you can also find this place, I really convince you." ”

"Oops......" When Liu Man'er said this, Fang's face instantly turned red, and he felt that the majesty of the elders in front of her was gone, and he only said: "This lady next door has a serious appearance, how can she be such a person, I just briefly talked about the situation of our family that day, and asked her if she had a suitable candidate, and she recommended Wang Matchmaker to me, saying that she has someone on her hands, who knows that it is like this." ”

"Don't blame others, how do people know that you are so good, and you still want to find a husband for your daughter-in-law?" Liu Man'er covered her mouth and laughed secretly, and said: "Don't toss around for me, I have my own plans in my heart, and I am ready to go out to wander the world in the second half of the year, and I will definitely find a good son for you when the time comes!" ”

Liu Man'er originally wanted to mention it to the Fang clan first, lest she not be able to accept it at that time, but who knew that hearing her words, the Fang clan's reaction was quite big, "You want to leave?" ”

"No, no, I just have some business at that time, and I want to go outside with me." Liu Man'er hurriedly changed her statement.

"That's right." Fang Shi sighed, and said as if he had a feeling: "Speaking of which, you are a woman's family, it's not good to always go outside, I think our family's money is enough to spend now, you don't need to work so hard, can't you let them do some things?" ”

"It's different." Liu Man'er explained to her: "If I don't stare at many things, they will have two hearts, and I want to be lazy, but now I don't know how many people are staring at my shop, if I don't work hard, I will be replaced by them, and when the time comes, it's okay to go home and farm, maybe I don't even have to plant the field, and it's human nature to go to a high place and never be satisfied." ”

Fang Shi heard it in a fog, but thinking about it, it seems that this is indeed the case, the comfortable life she has now is because of the efforts of her daughter-in-law, otherwise, how can she have the life she has now?

"Thank you for your hard work, my mother doesn't understand these things anyway, but don't worry, I will help you take care of your home in the future." Fang said: "In the future, I will no longer care about your private affairs." ”

"Then thank you." Liu Man'er smiled slightly with Fang's family, and the two reached a preliminary consensus.

"Then let's go back quickly, I still have something to do." What Liu Man'er wants most now is to go home and change out of this set of obstructive clothes, and now there are many men around her who look at her from time to time, which makes her feel very uncomfortable in her heart.

"Okay." Fang Shi nodded, but at this moment, he had already strayed into the depths of the crowd, even if he wanted to find a sedan chair, he had to squeeze out of the crowd.

"Man'er ......"

As soon as she squeezed out of the crowd and came to a place with fewer people, someone suddenly called her from behind.

Liu Man'er thought it was her hallucination at first, who would know her name? After this person screamed twice, she turned her head and found that it was Yan Ruifan.

"Young Master Yan, why are you here?" Liu Man'er stopped, feeling very surprised.

Seeing Liu Man'er turn around, with red lips and white teeth, Yan Ruifan's eyes had already flashed a trace of amazement, but when he approached, his eyes had returned to his former indifference, he first saluted the Fang family, and after the Fang family also returned the salute, he said to Liu Man'er: "I just came to the county town in the past two days, and I was planning to cooperate with you in a business, but I didn't expect to meet here." ”

"What business?" Liu Man'er asked, Yan Ruifan's family's business is so big, how can they do business with a small trader like herself.

Seeing Liu Man'er eagerly asking about business, Yan Ruifan smiled slightly, and said gently: "I know my old acquaintance in another country, let's talk about business matters later, it's rare to meet the two, I don't know if you can have a light meal with me?" ”

Liu Man'er was afraid that the Fang clan would misunderstand, and just wanted to refuse, but who expected that the Fang clan had already spoken first: "It's rare that Young Master Yan invites us, but the old body is disrespectful." ”
