Chapter 194: Door-to-door proposal

Early the next morning, the cold sky had just flashed a trace of light without temperature, and an octagonal green-topped carriage slowly came out of the west gate of the Zhenguo Mansion, leaving two deep car marks on the road it passed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Far behind the carriage, always followed by a figure not far away, like a passer-by.

"Grandma, the shopkeeper of Xu Ji Bun Shop begs to see you." Chunqing had just finished breakfast, and Bai Zhi rushed in with an expression like eating a magpie's fart, although she said to Chunqing, her eyes were shining at Bai Lu.

Bai Lu didn't dare to look directly into Bai Zhi's eyes, lowered her head, and her chubby face couldn't help rubbing into her chest.

A heart was pounding wildly, and it looked like it was about to come out of my throat.

Bai Zhi's eyebrows danced and added, "Xiao Xu is here." This sentence she said was extraordinarily round, and her tone was frustrated.

After that, Bai Zhi smiled narrowly at Bai Lu, and the white little broken teeth were particularly shiny.

Yes! He's coming, too!

Bai Lu immediately felt that she couldn't breathe, and her cheeks were hot.

Chunqing didn't expect them to come so quickly, "Take people to the flower hall." Chunqing instructed to get up and change her clothes.

"Do you want to come with me?" After changing into a lake-green high-necked gown, Chunqing took Bai Peony towards the flower hall, and did not forget to joke with Bai Lu before leaving, "Xiao Xu's shopkeeper is also here!" Looking at Bai Lu with silky eyes.

Bai Lu couldn't stand Chunqing's teasing of her, so she snorted, hugged her head and ran out, and the one who ran was called a magnificent mountain and river, "Slaves and maids listen to grandma." Leave a roar.

Chunqing and the flower hall, shopkeeper Xu and shopkeeper Xiao Xu have already stood side by side, standing in the center of the flower hall with their hands down.

"You may be seated." Sitting down on the main seat steadily, Chunqing said politely to the shopkeeper Xu and his son, with a polite smile on his face, not thick or light, just right.

Bai Zhi stepped forward and led them to sit down, while Bai Shao held two boiling teas on an ebony wooden tray one by one.

The blue and white porcelain teacups are steaming, and the fragrance of tea fills the flower hall.

Bai Peony was already seductive, coupled with Chunqing's special instructions, when serving tea to Xiao Xu's shopkeeper, Bai Peony stayed in front of him for a few more moments, and a pair of white jade earrings on her earlobes swayed, charming and charming.

"Young Master Xu, please drink tea." Bai Shaoting put the teacup on the curl and said softly.

"Thank you." Xiao Xu's shopkeeper did not change his face and his heart did not beat politely, but his voice was respectful but with obvious distance.

Bai Peony stepped back gracefully, and Bai Zhi came up with a plate of fruits like a snow.

If Bai Shao's beauty is the fairy sister Wang Yuyan, then Bai Zhi's beauty is the arrogant and cute little Huang Rong, each with its own merits.

In short, in the eyes of normal people, they are more attractive than the sturdy little iron tree.

Bai Zhi put down the fruit plate and said crisply to Xiao Xu's shopkeeper: "Young Master Xu eats the fruit." ”

Xiao Xu's shopkeeper nodded and smiled, his smile was like a model shooting a print advertisement, good-looking but not warm, with politeness and respect.

Chunqing nodded slightly.

can not take a second look at Bai Peony and Bai Zhi, either this person really loves Bai Lu, or the city is very deep.

Her little Bailu is so simple, I hope this little Xu shopkeeper is not the latter.

Chunqing gave Bai Zhi a look, asked her to call Bai Lu over, turned her face and smiled and said to Shopkeeper Xu, "What do you want to see me?" ”

As the words fell, Chunqing noticed that Xiao Xu's shopkeeper was red-faced, and his hand on his knee grabbed his new clothes.

Hey, that's nervous.

Chunqing smiled in her heart, it seems that this kid is not from the city.

Shopkeeper Xu had a simple and respectful smile on his face, and said to Chunqing: "I came today to propose to Mrs. Shizi and ask for Xiao'er to marry the Bailu girl in the house." ”

Shopkeeper Xu's words made Shopkeeper Xiao Xu blush even more, like a ripe cherry, which made people want to take a bite.

Chunqing glanced at Xiao Xu's shopkeeper and said to Xu's shopkeeper: "Although Bai Lu is a maid, she can follow me since she was a child, and her affection is no better than others, and her marriage naturally can't be casual." The voice was unhurried, with a faint majesty.

"What kind of conditions does Mrs. Shizi have, just say, we will definitely agree." Shopkeeper Xu said without hesitation, with a sincere face.

"Your steamed bun shop in the capital is booming, and I also know that your family is well-off, but after all, you are the only one who governs this property, I don't know what kind of business your son has to make a living?" Chunqing asked slowly, always with a vague smile on her face.

Shopkeeper Xu immediately said: "When they get married, this bun shop will belong to them, and I will only help." ”

Chunqing could see that he was very sincere.

It's just that it's not what she wants.

A manly man, it is necessary to settle down, how can he gnaw at the old.

Her son-in-law is the real husband.

She didn't expect to find such an excellent man for Bai Lu, after all, her status was there, and it couldn't be too bad.

Chunqing smiled faintly and said: "This is exactly the condition I want to mention, if your son really wants to ask to marry my maid, he must have the ability to make his own life, otherwise, I will not agree." The tone was resolute, and there was no room for manoeuvre.

"I can give him two years to let him work hard, during this period I will never give Bai Lu to others, two years later, if you pride yourself as successful, and are still willing to marry Bai Lu as a wife, I will not hesitate to marry Bai Lu to you, just one point, I said ugly things in front, Bai Lu married, I will not give a dowry silver, you can take away only her."

Two years later, Bai Lu will be sixteen years old.

And two years is enough to verify Xiao Xu's shopkeeper's friendship with Bai Lu and his own ability.

Shopkeeper Xu came this time, originally thought that this family matter was nine out of ten, after all, Bai Lu was just a subordinate of the Zhenguo Mansion, but he didn't want to touch his nose, and his face was a little unbearable, revealing a wry smile.

The lady of the prince of the town's mansion looked young and childish, but she didn't expect to speak so old and spicy, and her words were reasonable, so he didn't have a chance to reply.

The wives of big families are really different.

At this point, Shopkeeper Xu had no choice but to give up.

For two years, he didn't want to wait, there were many girls in the neighborhood who wanted to marry his son, and if he wanted to line up, he could almost run through Gulou Street, and he couldn't marry anyone, so he had to wait for you to be a maid.

Just when the shopkeeper Xu was about to say goodbye, the shopkeeper Xiao Xu faded his face and flushed, leaving only the color of perseverance, got up and stood still, and said: "In two years, I will definitely come to ask to marry Bai Lu, and I hope that Mrs. will be good at what she says, and don't match Bai Lu with others during this period." The tone was firm and sincere.

Bai Lu, who was standing outside the door eavesdropping, immediately turned red.

Bai Zhi quietly tugged at Bai Lu's clothes and said with a smile: "He is really infatuated." ”

Bai Lu glanced at Bai Zhi shyly, turned around and ran away, wanting to pour honey as sweet. (To be continued.) )
