Chapter 341: No Betrayal
Chapter 341: No Betrayal
In the previous life, when they had the ability to open a bookstore, there was no room for bookstores in the market, everyone was used to reading e-books, and the sales of paper books were very limited, and they couldn't even earn back the rent when they opened a bookstore.
can only be a person who is not bad for money, and he has a feeling.
Gu Huanxi once had a dream, that is, to have a bookstore of his own, and the decoration must be stylish, so that everyone who walks in can calm down, find a favorite book, find a quiet corner, read amazing words, and spend a good time leisurely.
Even if you go out, you are immediately trapped by the troubles of the world, and you have to hurry up for the future, but at least the time in the bookstore is slow, nostalgic, there is a pure land, and when you are tired, there is a habitat to relieve stress.
It's a pity that her dream has not come true, her ability is limited, and she can't just ignore firewood, rice, oil and salt.
Fortunately, this life has seen the dawn, and she finally doesn't have to be trapped by money anymore, and she can let go of the world of her dreams.
The next day, after Xu Huaiyi went to the college, Gu Huanxi pondered at home how to design the bookstore, as well as the problems of positioning and operation, and made more than a dozen sketches alone, revising them over and over again, in order to achieve the effect they wanted, elegant and stylish, quiet and tasteful, so as to retain every reader who walked in, so that they loved it from the bottom of their hearts and were reluctant to leave.
There is also the name of the bookstore, she also thought about it a lot, this is good, that one is not bad, each has its own meaning, and it has not been decided for a long time.
A few days passed.
In the past few days, Xu Huaiyi took the time to find Master Huixin, and had already negotiated with him to hold a ceremony to open the temple door for the village, and also chose an auspicious day, which was when he was on vacation.
He also found someone to buy more than a dozen people, afraid that he didn't understand the Tao here, and then looked away, and took his classmates to help Zhangyan.
Especially Su Zhe, he gave a lot of opinions, the people who bought it were more reliable, there were porters, mothers-in-law who did rough work, there were also coachmen and servants, and a few honest maids, what was more strange was that those maids were all flat-headed and straight-faced, but the maids were all not good-looking, and even mediocre and a little ugly.
Big families will not buy such a servant girl, even if they are capable, they will dislike the appearance of vulgarity, and they will not be able to take it out, which will make people laugh.
So such people are particularly unmarketable, what people are most afraid of is to smash their own hands, who wants to have a strange guest today, pick this kind of want, and don't consider it if you are a little more delicate.
What's wrong with that?
People don't understand, and they don't dare to ask.
Su Zhe was puzzled, knowing that Xu Huaiyi didn't like the temptation to beat around the bush, so he asked directly.
Others were curious, too.
Xu Huaiyi said very naturally, "Good-looking people are easy to be restless, if they have some thoughts about me, what should I do behind my back?" β
Su Zhe, "......"
The reason was so powerful that he couldn't say anything.
This kind of thing is simply endless in the big family, beautiful maids climb the master's bed, it's not uncommon, the male master has a favorite maid, and he will take the initiative to accept it, it's all commonplace, what are you afraid of? If you sleep, you will sleep, anyway, this kind of thing will not suffer a man.
It's all men, Zhao Sanyou's thoughts are similar, he is straightforward, he can't help but say this, he was calculated, so he simply put it in the backyard, anyway, it's not bad to eat, it's raised anywhere, and if he doesn't want to give a name, he will be a room to relieve his boredom.
As an indigenous, there is nothing wrong with their ideas, but Xu Huaiyi can't do it, even if he listens to it, he feels sorry for his daughter-in-law, he immediately retorted, "I have a daughter-in-law, and I will only let her touch it alone in this life, and other women, even immortals, can't do it." β
"What?" Zhao Sanyou was dumbfounded, "You can only touch one woman in this life?" β
Xu Huaiyi nodded heavily, "I will be loyal to my daughter-in-law and will never betray." β
Zhao Sanyou was so surprised that he was speechless, it was him, although there were no concubines at home, but when it was inconvenient for his daughter-in-law to serve, a room would be arranged in the house, he was used to it, and he never thought about loyalty or disloyalty.
No, it's not appropriate to be loyal to a woman, right?
Su Zhe was also surprised, but after being surprised, he felt unexpected, reasonable, Xu Huaiyi is a special person, isn't he? Otherwise, he wouldn't like to befriend him so much, but he was still a little curious, so he asked vaguely, "What about the woman after she is pregnant?" β
Xu Huaiyi said as a matter of course, "Hold it back, it's only a few months, can you still get through it?" β
Su Zhe's eyes flashed, "Don't you feel wronged?" β
Xu Huaiyi snorted, "What's wrong with this?" As long as you think about your daughter-in-law is suffering from pregnancy, desperately risking childbirth to give birth to a child, you don't have any thoughts, at that time to touch other women, it is to stab the daughter-in-law in the heart, but any man who loves his daughter-in-law can't do it. β
Zhao Sanyou touched his nose weakly.
Wang Qiusheng is frank, but when his daughter-in-law gave birth, he still couldn't get through it, and only left him a son, which can finally be a little comforting.
But he boasted that he had a deep relationship with his wife, but he couldn't say that he would never touch other women like Xu Huaiyi, even if he didn't want to take a concubine sometimes, there was always a last resort, not to mention, when he entered the officialdom in the future, there were still many entertainments, and there was no way to avoid it.
He thought so, and said so.
Xu Huaiyi's expression was calm, but his tone was extremely determined, "I won't be contaminated with those, you can go to socialize, but women won't touch it, of course, other people will touch it, I won't make irresponsible comments, that's people's freedom." β
"What if the other party insists on giving it to you? If you don't accept it, you just don't fit in with the group and don't give face, this entertainment will not go on, you will offend people, and even turn your face with the other party, what will you do? Or refusal? β
Xu Huaiyi nodded without thinking, "No matter who it is, you can't let me betray my daughter-in-law." β
ββ¦β¦β
This sentence was too categorical, and everyone else was shocked.
After half a ring, Su Zhe asked in a trance, "Is it worth it?" β
A woman is just that, so much influence?
Xu Huaiyi said, "It's worth it." β
"Even if it ruins the future?"
"Well, even if I ruin my future and am penniless, I will not betray her."
Su Zhe had no doubt about the truth of his words, he just couldn't accept it.
Others are not like this, that is, Meng Ping was born poor, but he also had the dream of harmonious wives and concubines and a group of children in the future imperial examination.
Only Li Yunting was the calmest, and even echoed, "I think Huaiyi's idea is good and very wise, and I will follow suit in the future." β
"What?" Zhao Sanyou looked at him in disbelief, "Why?" β
It's too much to think about, it's not wrong to hug left and right, even the imperial history who stares at officials all day long and finds fault won't impeach this kind of thing.
Li Yunting said lightly, "Because there is only one woman in the backyard, there will not be so many fights, there is no intrigue, conspiracy and calculation, and men can use their minds more on their careers." β
Zhao Sanyou subconsciously said, "But there is only one, it will be very troublesome to inherit the lineage, there are many sons and many blessings, who doesn't want children to have more Chenghuan knees?" β
Li Yunting said meaningfully, "Is it really a blessing to have many children?" Not necessarily, like the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, there are eight children from the concubines, everyone has their own little abacus, all they think about is how to pull benefits into their own house, for that little benefit, intrigue, deceit, calculate their other party, like treating life and death enemies, there is no brotherhood at all, that is also called more sons and more blessings? Oh, it's a lot of disasters for many children, right? β
Zhao Sanyou choked and couldn't argue for a while.
Li Yunting continued, "There are eight who survived, and many of them directly turned into a pool of blood, aren't those fate?" Not a child of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion? But they all fell victim to the fight, like me, I don't know how many times I escaped the calculations, if it weren't for my great life and the protection of my master, I would have died a long time ago. β
"Don't say it's like the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, how can there be anything in the big family that doesn't fight or grab? The more women in the backyard are, the more chaos they make, and of course, there are very few harmonious ones, but there are too few. β
"The root cause is that women provoke too much, and they are natural enemies, and those who look forward to brothers, friends and brothers, hmph, are just self-deception and wishful thinking, and those who look forward to the harmony of their wives and concubines are even more naΓ―ve and ridiculous."
He has always been quiet and cold, rarely saying so many things at one time, and he has become a blockbuster if he doesn't make a sound.
Xu Huaiyi took the lead in saying, "It's too good, look at the essence of the problem, that's the case, there is only one wife, the backyard is absolutely clean, and the children have the same father and mother, and the relationship will be better, even if there is a little friction in interests, it is easy to solve." β
Su Zhe asked, "Then what if the wife married is not in good health and hinders childbirth?" Don't take concubines? β
Xu Huaiyi said, "I don't care about this anyway, my daughter-in-law just gave birth to a daughter, I like it very much, and I am satisfied with this girl for the rest of my life." β
Su Zhe's eyes widened, "It's okay not to have a biological son?" β
Xu Huaiyi said, "Well, it's feasible, actually, I don't want another one, no matter my son or daughter, I don't want it." β
This time it was the corner of Zhao Sanyou's mouth that asked, "Why?" β
Xu Huaiyi said very melancholy, "If I have another child, I have to divide half of my love for Ah Li, and I can't love her wholeheartedly, I always feel that it will wronged her." β
Zhao Sanyou, "......"
God, it's rare to hear such a statement in your lifetime.
Su Zhe was also stunned this time, "Only my daughter, how can everything you work hard continue?" β
"Give it to my daughter."
"Isn't that cheaper for people with foreign surnames? Are you willing? β
"I can recruit my daughter."
Su Zhe almost blurted out the sentence "What kind of good person can there be who is willing to come to the door to be a son-in-law", thinking of Xu Huaiyi's identity, he couldn't help it, "Your realm, beyond the reach of mortals, the little brother admires and admires!" β
Anyway, he can't do it, he will marry a wife in the future, it will definitely be a good marriage, not talking about feelings, only talking about interests, guarding himself like jade for such a woman, he is unwilling, he will definitely choose a few more favorite ones to carry into the backyard in the future.
Xu Huaiyi smiled and received this wave of praise.
bought people, all sent to the new house, Xu Huaiyi gave the silver to the housekeeper, and asked him to take care of the house for the time being, the cleaning that should be cleaned, the preparation that should be prepared, the place that needs to be rebuilt He didn't find anyone to start the construction for the time being, it's almost the New Year, I don't care about making big moves, and I'll talk about it after the year.
The housekeeper's surname is Yu, he is a man in his thirties, he is silent, but he is shrewd, Su Zhe helped him pick it, Xu Huaiyi asked a few questions, and the answers were all right to his liking, and he was told to do things, he just responded, and there was no embarrassment on his face, and he would not find a reason to shirk.
Xu Huaiyi was satisfied, but he didn't show it, the profession of housekeeper is quite special, and he has to investigate it for a while before he can put his mind at ease.
On the way back to the college, there was a bustle, a group of people gathered together, and even the road was blocked, and the carriages passed by, and they had to queue up one by one.
The speed slowed down, Su Zhe and the others were impatient, and urged the little guy who was driving the car outside, "Go and see, what's going on?" β
"Yes, young master."
After the little servant went for a while, he ran back and replied, "Young master, someone wants to sell himself to bury his father." β
This is an old drama, and it is not uncommon for several people to hear it.
"Why are there so many onlookers?"
"Because the woman who was going to sell her body was very good-looking, which caused a lot of people to scramble."
When Su Zhe heard this, he was a little interested, "It turns out that she has outstanding appearance, how is it compared to the girl in Chunshui Building?" β
The little guy said, "There is nothing to do." β
"Really?"
"Don't dare to deceive the young master, that woman is not only as beautiful as a flower, but also has a very, very eye-catching temperament, that kind of man sees it, can't wait to pity her, and is willing to buy her anything......"
Several people who said this were curious, and they had to wait left and right, so they simply got out of the car and took a look, and at this glance, they knew that the little guy was not lying, that face was really good-looking, that temperament, and it was indeed eye-catching, kneeling there in a white dress, like a lily in the wind, Chu Chu was moving, and it was unbearable, and I wanted to take it home and take care of it.
This woman did not ask for much silver, only twenty taels of silver, she could buy her whole life, and after she buried her father, she was willing to serve her master as a slave and a maid.
Twenty taels of silver is naturally a lot for the people, but for the rich, it is not worth mentioning, and it is true, many rich young masters have shouted to buy her, and even a few of the children of the powerful have also moved their minds.
It's just that the woman didn't nod, yes, she will agree to no one who bids, and she will go with the other party if she meets the eye.
It's the same as picking a husband.
is like this, no one has turned her face yet, who called her beautiful.
When it comes to beauties, men are always a little more tolerant.
Su Zhe asked Xu Huaiyi in a low voice, "What do you think?" β
Xu Huaiyi said, "If you want to be pretty and be filial, it is true." β
Su Zhe raised his eyebrows, and was about to say something, when he heard Xu Huaiyi continue, "Packaging yourself as a little white flower swaying in the wind, so many rich and powerful young masters refuse to go with them, it seems that the plan is not small." β
I just don't know who the unlucky ghost she chooses is.
Su Zhe chuckled, "So you think so too?" So guess who, she's targeting? β
Xu Huaiyi shook his head, where can I guess this?
Su Zhe said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "You say, could it be one of us?" β
Xu Huaiyi paused, "Won't it?" What do we have to call a human figure? Could it be you or Yunting? β
Su Zhe glanced at him, meaningful, "Most likely you." β
Today it is combined into one chapter
