Chapter 147: The Words of the Matchmaker of the Parents' Order
Liu Shi held Chun'er's hand, but there was an indescribable sternness in the corner of his eyes.
Chun'er has no father and mother since she was a child, and has always been fostered in her uncle and aunt's house, her uncle is okay with her, and there is a mouthful of food at home, so that she will not be hungry, but her uncle is usually silent, and he is usually not close to her. But the uncle Liu treated Chun'er with a different face, and when Chun'er had not been sold to the Zhou Mansion, she naturally cursed some money-losing words all day long.
Later, Chun'er arrived at Zhou's house, this aunt naturally had no contact with her, but now it is a big grin to bring many people to ransom people, the lady is kind-hearted, although a little reluctant, but did not force to stay, only said that a girl's family, always a slave is not a way, if there is a good family in the countryside, it is better than in the house, so let Chun'er out.
I haven't seen Chun'er for a few years, but Liu's sourness has not changed at all, he glanced at Chun'er suspiciously, and said in a low voice: "Chun'er, why are you so ignorant, this trip was personally driven by Master Deng to bring me and your uncle here, and the money to redeem yourself for you is also from Master Deng, but you still served your wife in this mansion, don't you understand this bit of human feelings?" ”
This complaint was just to scare this girl first, Liu Shi understood, this girl was in her heart, her eyes only fell on the courtyard wall of the Zhou Mansion, and she must not be willing to go back to the countryside with her! Hehe, give her a shot first!
After complaining sharply, his tone warmed up a little, and said: "You are a girl, you don't say some things, I also know, do you think Master Deng is a little old?" Not as good as those young and handsome young masters? Tsk, Chun'er, do you have such a fate? It's just to be a girl who accompanies the bed, people can't say if they look down on it, you're not young, even if you don't plan for yourself, you have to plan for me and your uncle, your cousins are all foodies, your uncle is also old, how many years can you live in the future? Our family is old and young, and we are counting on you to find a good family, climb a family business, and find some help! ”
Xu is Liu said for a long time, a little tired, paused for a moment, and then said: "What about this Master Deng, I think you should also know that the Zhongmu Deng family is also a big family; His family was in the cloth mill business, which was to be sold thousands of miles away across the ocean, and the gold at home could be filled with a dustpan; Such a good family cannot be found even with a lantern; Mr. Deng died a few years ago, and he has always wanted to marry another one, but you also know, who is he? Although those girls in Zhongmu City were interested in him, he didn't even look at the corners of his eyes. But you have such a good fortune, Master Deng heard that you are a girl in the Guogong Mansion, and you are accompanied by Mrs., so he does not dislike you, and is willing to let you climb a high branch. You just need to nod, and after this year, you can change from a girl to a genuine lady, and someone will serve you. ”
Liu said a lot, full of thought that Chun'er would happily agree, a pair of eyes looked directly at Chun'er's expression, but only to see Chun'er's pretty face was still dazed, a pair of eyes looked at the end of the street corner, but there was a ball of autumn waves in the eye socket.
Liu was furious in his heart, this girl is really amazing, do you think that even Master Deng can't look down on her as a girl in Zhou's mansion?
In fact, this Master Deng blew a lot of money in her mouth, but he was not even credible. Zhongmu Deng's family is indeed a big family, but the Deng master in front of him is only a side branch of the Deng family, not even a distant relative, as for the 100,000 family wealth, it is even more of a joke, but there is some small wealth, otherwise how could he drive such a simple carriage?
However, Master Deng's dowry is very ten, as many as three hundred, as long as Chun'er nods, these three hundred are Liu's.
Seeing that Chun'er was only looking elsewhere and taking her words as wind in her ears, Liu was furious, twisted Chun'er's forearm, and sneered: "Dead girl, are you blinded by eating lard?" To whom do you make this appearance of death? To tell you the truth, I have accepted this dowry on your behalf, that is, your birthday, Master Deng has also seen it, and you should not have to deal with this family business. ”
Saying that, he forcibly pulled Chun'er to the side of the carriage, put on a smiling face and said to Master Deng: "Master Deng, don't blame, Chun'er, she is shy, she has agreed to this family business." ”
Master Deng was immediately overjoyed, glanced at Chun'er, and hurriedly said, "Great, great, Miss Chun'er gets in the car first, and then let's talk about it." ”
Saying that, Master Deng wanted to go over to help Chun'er get into the car, and when Liu Shi saw it, he immediately smiled and quipped: "Master Deng, Chun'er hasn't passed the door yet, what are you anxious about." ”
Seeing that Master Deng was going to come over to help her, Chun'er suddenly came back to her senses and retreated again and again, this time, she taught Master Deng to be embarrassed, and only heard Chun'er say: "I will go myself." ”
Chun'er looked back sadly at the corner leading to Guozijian, the remnants of snow stretched into the misty distance, and in the mist stood lonely cold buildings, shops, and familiar shop flags, and there was no one left.
"Brother Shen should take the exam in the Guozi Prison now, I don't know how he did in the exam!" Chun'er sighed and spat out a mouthful of mist, and the tears that swirled in her eyes couldn't help but flow out, hot and hot, melting her face, which was almost frozen by the cold wind.
She turned back and walked to the carriage step by step, seeing the burning gaze that Master Deng threw at her, and the sneering smile of her aunt's triumph, in that corner, her uncle was squatting under the wheel, not looking up, and the rickety back seemed to feel guilty.
She bypassed the wheel and boarded the car, the carriage still exuded a smell of new paint, very uncomfortable, put down the burden, and then her aunt also got into the carriage, two men outside, the uncle drove the car, but the old man Deng was walking.
Liu sat down next to her, but said triumphantly: "Chun'er, look at this car, can you afford an ordinary family situation?" You are rich and noble, and you will marry Master Deng in the future, you don't have to lift your legs when you go out, you can teach people to catch a car to meet you. ”
Liu babbled, but Chun'er rolled up the curtain of the carriage, looked at the ice under the eaves that rolled quickly, and there was an indescribable sourness in her heart, and a line of tears rolled down, and she seemed to be unwilling in her heart, but she faintly felt that she seemed to be right to do this.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves came from behind, Chun'er's eyes lit up, she leaned out of the window, and saw two healthy horses galloping through the snow from a distance, she heard Shen Ao's voice, but the voice that came from the cold wind was familiar and kind: "Chun'er......"
This call made Chun'er's tears fall more urgently, she bit her lip, and stubbornly picked her palms with her nails, for a while, I didn't know how to choose.
Liu's face tightened, as if he had heard the voice, and then looked at Chun'er's shy appearance, he already knew it in his heart, and sneered: "Chun'er, I didn't expect that you didn't learn the rules of the Zhou Mansion, but you learned to steal men." ”
This sentence was extremely vicious, Chun'er was ashamed and angry, so she could only cry, and said silently in her heart: "Brother Shen, go quickly, Chun'er doesn't have such blessings, Chun'er is not worthy of you, you should study hard, and in the future, you will be a husband and find a family affair that is the right person."
Shen Ao took Zhao Zixuan and rode over the carriage quickly, and as soon as the reins were pulled, the front hooves of the horse's head raised broken snow, turned around, and in Herod's neighing horse, Shen Ao was already opposite the carriage.
"Chun'er is not there?" Shen Ao looked at the carriage, turned over and dismounted, and picked down the cold and shivering Zhao Zixuan, his expression was a little cold, and his eyes fell on the old man Deng who was walking with the car.
After a while, another horse came galloping, and this man was the coachman of the little lord, and he looked at it coldly, but did not dismount, and turned the horse to the side of the road, and watched from the wall.
The curtain on the carriage was lifted, and a shadow was revealed, but who was Chun'er? Shen Ao walked over, and suddenly supported Chun'er, who leaned out half of his body, and said, "Chun'er, what's going on?" When I heard that you were leaving, I hurried here. ”
"Brother Shen!" Chun'er burst into tears, but she finally had the last shred of reason in her heart, and she didn't dare to get too close to Shen Ao, so she gave in gently, so that the hand that was supporting her was empty.
There was another woman in the carriage, this person was Liu, Liu sneered, looked Shen Ao up and down, and snorted, "Who are you?" How dare you and Mrs. Deng talk to me in public? Get out of the way, or I'm going to report to the police. ”
This sentence just reminded the stunned Master Deng on the side, how can Master Deng be a good bully, the dowry has been given, to put it ugly, he has spent money to buy this Chun'er, and the young man in front of him dares to touch his bride, it is really hateful!
With a sneer, Master Deng took a step forward and said, "What is Brother Tai doing?" You must know that there is a difference between men and women, Chun'er is already my fiancée, and it is a crime of fornication for you to hook up with my fiancée, go quickly, otherwise I will immediately call the official to get you. ”
Chun'er was stunned, and hurriedly said, "Master Deng, Master Deng...... Brother Shen, he ......"
Chun'er was so anxious that she was incoherent for a while, thinking about interceding for Shen Ao, but Shen Ao sneered, interrupted Chun'er's words, and said, "Chun'er, you sit down well, here, everything has me." ”
When the last sentence was said by me, Shen Ao seemed extremely determined, took his hands, looked at Master Deng up and down, and said with a smile: "You said that Chun'er is your fiancée, do you have a certificate?" ”
Before Master Deng could reply, Liu in the carriage first hissed: "Master Deng's dowry gift has been delivered, and this is the certificate." The order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, Chun'er has no parents, I am her aunt, her elder, since I promised Chun'er to Master Deng, what other credentials do I need? ”
Liu got out of the car, blocked Chun'er behind him, and said hoarsely to Shen Ao: "It's you stinky dog, what are you talking about here." ”
Shen Ao just laughed, looking at them with a sneer.
Hum! Want to snatch his woman from his eyes?
There are no doors!
