Chapter 97: Marriage Proposal
Outside the screen, Zhang Zhisheng's smile only froze for a moment, and then he smiled again, "My grandfather is good at abacus, and my aunt is good at managing the shop, I want to learn." When I finish my studies, my mother won't have to worry about the business of the shop anymore."
Aunt Lin's smile that fell because of Fang's words immediately returned to her face, and she was moved, "Zhisheng, mother's good son!"
Lin Ruyu, who was carefully observing Zhang Zhisheng in the screen, also nodded, Zhang Zhisheng was really his mother's good son, and he brought the scene back with a word and stabilized his mother.
After Zhang Zhisheng went out, Aunt Lin praised her caring and sensible little son to the point that there was nothing in the sky and on the earth, and Fang listened with a smile and did not talk.
Aunt Lin said dryly, poured two sips of tea, and then remembered the purpose of her coming here today, and sighed bitterly, "My brother and sister haven't gone out at home for the past few days, I don't know what people outside say about our Jiaojiao."
Fang finally spoke, "I was about to ask the eldest sister about this......
Aunt Lin instantly exploded, "What are you asking me?"
Lin Ruyu, who was eating melons in the screen, threw the melons away. You have this concentration, and you dare to fight with my mother?
"I was about to ask the eldest sister," Fang said unhurriedly, "who said bad things about my family in front of you."
This one......
Aunt Lin's fried hair instantly subdued, and her voice became quieter, "I am Ruyu's aunt, who dares to chew her tongue in front of me, it is the maid of the family who listens to the people on the street. Brother and sister, we can't let them be arranged like this, otherwise Jiaojiao's reputation will really be ruined."
Fang followed Aunt Lin's words and asked, "Then according to the eldest sister's opinion, what should I do about this?"
You're not stupid, and you're on the point. Aunt Lin immediately said, "Jiaojiao has already reached the age of discussing marriage, if we book her relationship now, the rumors outside will be self-defeating."
Lin Ruyu sneered, and Fang's raised his hand to support his somewhat dizzy forehead, "Now that Ruyu is engaged, it will only confirm the rumors outside."
"Never!" Aunt Lin's voice couldn't help but rise again, "Brother and sister, turn it over and think about it: if Jiaojiaoguo is as rumored outside, which family will marry her?" At this time, it is an idea to get engaged to a thousand dollars or two."
Fang's raised his eyes and looked directly at Aunt Lin, "Eldest sister can also turn it over and think about it: this rumor may be arranged by a pickled woman who wants to marry Ruyu. They used rumors that were not worth a tael to beat the idea of the dowry of my Lin family's daughter."
Aunt Lin's face turned blue instantly, "Fang Wanyin, what do you mean by this?"
Fang's is still unmoving, "Since the eldest sister still can't figure it out, then I'll make it clearer: during this time, any family that is not worthy of Jiaojiao takes advantage of the rumor to come to propose marriage, and which family is the source of this rumor. If the eldest sister doesn't believe it, let's wait and see."
Seeing that the eldest aunt couldn't say a word when she was choked by her mother, Lin Ruyu, who had finished eating the melon, exited the front hall refreshed.
In the last life, after Lin Ruyu was taken back to Xuanzhou by Fake An from afar, there were also such rumors in the market. Aunt Lin also brought Zhang Zhisheng over to propose marriage, and then was blocked back by the fake An who "coincidentally" came over.
Later, the rumors intensified, and Fake An proposed to his second uncle from afar. ….
Although An Ziyuan is Lin Ruyu's "life-saving benefactor", after all, he is much older than Lin Ruyu, and his wife and children have just died, so the second uncle naturally refuses.
After that, if An Ziyuan saved the stormy Lin family, the people of Xuanzhou had a good reputation for him, and Lin Ruyu also had love for him, so when An Ziyuan proposed again, the second uncle did not refuse, but only said that he would discuss it when the eldest brother returned from going to sea.
Later, Lin Ruyu's parents and younger brother died one after another, Lin Ruyu mourned, and the marriage of the two has not been put on the agenda. In the end, before Lin Ruyu came out of the mourning period, he died under his knife.
This life is different, Lin Ruyu raised her head to let the sun warm her face, and smiled.
"Cousin!" Zhang Zhisheng saw his cousin, who was as beautiful as a picture in the sun, and walked quickly to the front, "Cousin, has you finished reading the account book?"
Lin Ruyu was not surprised that Zhang Zhisheng was waiting on the way back to Qianhua Courtyard, and nodded and called his cousin.
"I haven't seen you for more than a month
, my cousin has lost a lot." Zhang Zhisheng stopped, staring at his cousin's increasingly attractive eyebrows with a concerned expression, thinking that his mother was discussing their family affairs with his aunt, so he took another step forward and said with a smile, "The viewing tower of Fanghua Garden has been built, let's go around tomorrow, row, and eat kumquat water balls and manna cakes, okay?"
Lin Ruyu took a step back and refused directly, "Cousin and cousin, go, I want to take care of my mother here."
Zhang Zhisheng remembered that his aunt was still sick, so he quickly changed his words, "Then I bought it for you tomorrow and sent it to you, don't you like her manna cake the most."
The one who likes Fanghuayuan manna cake is Zhang Yuzhen. Lin Ruyu lowered her eyebrows coldly, "If I want to eat, I will send someone to buy it, and I don't dare to bother my cousin." I saw that the account books were a little tired, and I wanted to go back and rest. Cousin, go and play with Ah Dong and Ah Heng, they should also come back from school."
"That cousin is resting, I'll come back to see you tomorrow." Zhang Zhisheng looked at her slender back, and his heart to marry her was firmer.
Zhang Zhisheng walked forward, but he didn't see Lin Dudong and Lin Duheng, but he saw Silly Fu walking in from outside, and the little guy behind him was leading a good horse.
Zhang Zhisheng saw that his eyes were hot, and he asked the little guy who led the horse, "This horse is new to my second uncle?"
The little servant replied respectfully, "Back to the young master, this horse was chosen by the second master for Young Master Fu."
What?!
Zhang Zhisheng turned his head to look at Silly Fu, only to find that the clothes on his body, the splendid sachet and jade pendant hanging on his waist were all more delicate than those on his body, and his face was instantly distorted.
A while ago, Zhang Zhisheng cheekily begged his second uncle for a horse, but the second uncle said no. In the eyes of the second uncle, his nephew is no better than a fool! Let's wait for him to marry Lin Ruyu into the door, and see how he drives Lin Kangan, the concubine, out of the Lin family!
"Zhisheng, go home."
Zhang Zhisheng turned around and saw his mother walking out with a calm face, and there was only one housekeeper by his side to see him off, so he felt that things were not good.
After leaving the Lin family and getting into the carriage, Zhang Zhisheng couldn't wait to ask in a low voice, "Didn't my mother and aunt negotiate?"
Aunt Lin said angrily, "What are you talking about? Before my mother could speak, your eldest aunt was the one who came to the Lin family to propose marriage, and the rumors outside were made up!"
Zhang Zhisheng's pupils twitched, could it be that his aunt already knew that the rumors outside were fabricated by them?
How is that good......

After discussing the plan with Luo Xian and Xiao Lin, Shen Ge rushed back to Wanxiang Teahouse, saying that he was going to Hao Lianzhai to find the whereabouts of Mr. Dongzhu, and told his son and the shopkeeper he hired to keep the shop.
However, Shen Ge did not leave the city immediately, but first went to the medical hall next to the Wanxiang Teahouse, and let Lang Zhong see the injury on his leg.
In the guest house at the entrance of the third street directly opposite the medical hall, the person in charge of staring at the Wanxiang Teahouse rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Soon after Shen Ge left, this person also left through the back door of the inn and returned to the Hongchang Inn after a few circles.
