The owner's wife is the eldest lady's mother!
This was the first impression that arose in Li Wan's mind, and then she felt wrong: "It's really strange, this owner's wife, what's the matter with me?"
Li Wan asked herself, she didn't know her, if it was for official reception, there was no reason for her to come forward.
There is no personal relationship, and it is not a business matter, which is really puzzling.
......
"Li Daoyou, you are here, please inside. ”
In front of the guild hall, Gong Yuyuan and Elder Mo and others appeared at the door to greet them.
Li Wan greeted a few times with a smile, but her eyes couldn't help but glow a little differently.
"Are these people overzealous? How did they all become so weird?"
Because it was stated in advance that it was a dust-receiving banquet in the workshop, Li Wan did not bring anyone except Shi Haoguang, who was familiar with the affairs of the workshop and the workshop.
As soon as he came here, he saw Gong Yiyuan and the others with a somewhat weird smile in their enthusiasm, and instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong, so he had to bite the bullet and walk with them into the richly decorated guild hall.
Li Wan soon saw a beautiful woman in a gorgeous dress and a noble lady in the lobby surrounded by a group of servants.
This beautiful woman is the owner's wife.
Li Wan arched her hand and saluted with some surprise: "Senior Li Wan, I have seen Mrs. ”
The owner's wife said gently: "Li Daoyou doesn't have to be polite. ”
Madame's voice was very good, with glutinous sweetness, and it seemed to have a nasal voice that made people think about it, and the eldest lady's pleasant voice like a yellow warbler was obviously from her.
Looking at her appearance again, she is four or five points similar to the eldest lady, but she has a mature charm that the eldest lady does not have, and she looks more dignified and elegant.
Li Wan saw that his wife was like this, and she seemed to be kind, so she couldn't help but feel a little good.
Gong Yiyuan smiled and said: "Li Daoyou, although Madame doesn't ask about the things in the workshop, but she is also the elder of the workshop, if you have an opinion on the development plan of the workshop, you might as well speak up." ”
Li Wan's expression was a little strange: "What's the matter, this lady still has to take the school exam, and I can't do it?"
Although there were some doubts in his heart, the reason put forward by Gong Yuan was high-sounding, and it happened that Li Wan did have some ideas about the development of Tiangongfang, so he talked about this matter.
What he is most concerned about is the relationship between himself and the Tiangongfang, the ordinary Jiedan monks, as long as they are not the inferior true pills cultivated by the forces, the dead, the domestic slaves and the like all have considerable autonomy, and in the major sects, they have the right to dominate a peak, and it is impossible for a force like the Tiangongfang to control it.
Between the two, it is more about cooperation and reciprocity, such as the joining strategy proposed by the eldest lady, which is an excellent way.
When Li Wan mentioned this, she couldn't help but praise the eldest lady, but she didn't notice that when the owner's wife listened, a strange smile suddenly appeared on her face, and her expression was a little more enthusiastic than at the beginning.
Shi Haoguang on the side seemed to be aware of it, looked at Gong Yiyuan and the others, and then looked at the lady of the owner of the house, but he still lowered his head and did not dare to send a message to remind Li Wan.
When Li Wan talked freely, the owner's wife smiled and praised: "It is really as the elders said, he is a talented man." Li Daoyou, since you are the same generation as the little girl Qingning, is it okay for me to call you a good nephew? Don't be too polite, it's always Mrs. and Mrs. who are calling, and they are all called Shengfen, if you don't dislike it, you might as well call me aunt. ”
Li Wan couldn't help frowning when she saw the owner's wife's kind and overly affectionate expression, but she hid her doubts well, and called enthusiastically: "Auntie." ”
The owner's wife smiled and responded.
Everyone had a cordial conversation during the banquet, not only about the business inside and outside the workshop, but also about their own experiences and interesting stories, and because the owner's wife was a female elder, they chatted about the trivial matters of the parents.
This situation was obviously unexpected by Li Wan, but fortunately, he had been out of practice for many years, and it was not a problem to deal with it.
This first meeting finally ended with the warm send-off of the owner's wife, and when she left, Li Wanyu still felt that there were several hot eyes watching behind her, and she couldn't help but feel numb in her scalp and even more doubtful in her heart.
"What the hell is going on?"
Shi Haoguang accompanied Li Wan, walked among the mountain roads, and congratulated with a smile: "Li Daoyou, congratulations." ”
Li Wan was puzzled: "Where does the joy come from?"
Shi Haoguang smiled narrowly: "I don't know if Li Daoyou has ever heard of a sentence called a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, the more she looks, the more satisfied she becomes?"
Li Wan frowned and said, "Shi Daoyou, what do you mean by this?"
Ever since he entered this hall, he had always felt that the atmosphere was strange, not that there was danger, or that there were other things that were not good for him, but that Gong Yuan, Elder Mo, and the owner and his wife were all weird, and they seemed to have something to hide.
Hearing Shi Haoguang's words again, he suddenly couldn't help it, and asked the doubts in his heart.
Shi Haoguang smiled and said: "Li Daoyou, in terms of refining tools and cultivation talent, I am not as good as you, but in terms of human sophistication, experience and knowledge, or my old ginger is more spicy, what you didn't see, I can see it." ”
Li Wanzheng wondered in her heart, and hurriedly asked, "What do you understand?"
Shi Haoguang said with a smile: "They have taken a fancy to you, and they want to start a family for you and find a satisfactory beautiful girl." ”
"What?" Li Wan was stunned for a moment and said with a wry smile, "Shi Daoyou, don't be kidding, this is ridiculous." ”
"I'm not kidding, I'm afraid it's true. After Shi Haoguang laughed, he said sternly, "And this beautiful lady is probably the eldest lady in our workshop!"
"Miss!" In Li Wan's mind, a cold and beautiful woman suddenly appeared.
In Li Wan's mind, the eldest lady is a good beauty, with ability, skills, beauty, and in charge of the workshop, with a big family and a big business, she can indeed be called a virtuous match.
But Li Wan is now focused on Lin Jingshu, and she is not interested in other women, and her relationship with the eldest lady is just an ordinary friend, and it is too abrupt for him to suddenly mention this matter.
Li Wan frowned tightly and thought about it: "What the hell is going on?"
Seeing him like this, Shi Haoguang couldn't help but smile and sighed: "The authorities are fascinated, it's really so!"
He served Li Wan, which was the host-guest relationship of coexistence and co-prosperity, and he no longer pretended to be pretentious when he saw this: "Actually, this matter is not abrupt at all, in my opinion, the elders of the public have long been eyeing you." ”
Li Wan smiled bitterly: "Eyeing me...... This is not a good word. ”
Shi Haoguang smiled narrowly and said: "Who called you a young talent who has not started a family, with the potential of a master, and married early, the most rare thing is that his life experience is innocent and simple, which is in the eyes of many families, but it is the fragrant and sweet that everyone wants." ”
Then Shi Haoguang explained to Li Wan why a man from a poor family like him became a sweetheart.
The Tiangongfang was created by the ancestors of the Xiao family, and the ancestors of the Xiao family, according to legend, were the descendants of a powerful monk in the Jade Toad Palace, and they can be regarded as from a famous family.
But the famous family also has relatives and distant relatives, this ancestor of the Xiao family, is just a side door of the concubine, compared with the Yan family, there is no parental care, there is no inheritance of Lingfeng and the family business, and even apprenticeship, making friends with the same way, is far inferior to the Yan family, in order to get ahead, only to find another way out.
The ancestors of the Xiao family were unwilling to live under others, and they were even more unwilling to let their descendants become vassals of others, and they had no way out, so they embarked on the road of breaking away from the Jade Toad Palace and starting their own business from scratch.
The Xiao family was also a big family at that time, and in order to encourage the spread of branches and leaves, they vigorously supported this ancestor, and Tiangongfang also started from this.
Later, Tiangongfang finally gained a firm foothold in the Wushan area, but it was inevitably entangled with the main family, and there were other elders and vassals involved, and they fell into a bottleneck.
"Today's world, unlike the Middle Ages, the four barbaric wilderness, the heroes rose together, it can be said that the possibility of the rise of heroes has been cut off from the sky, if there is no great opportunity, it can only end here, and there are more family disputes, coveted by others, these dangers are to be guarded against by the Xiao family.
You see, the eldest lady is now in charge of the family business, almost half of the Xiao family's financial resources, pillars, are tied to her, if you become a family, the husband's life history must be innocent and simple, otherwise, other families rely on their in-laws to get involved in the Xiao family's family business, not to mention, but become a wolf into the house. ”
Shi Haoguang said again: "In addition to being innocent and simple, this husband's ability cannot be too bad, at least he must be a strong person, or other characters who can control the scene." But it is difficult to produce a noble son from a poor family, how can such a character be so easy to find? Even if you find it, you may not be able to find the right age and appearance.
Look at you again Li Daoyou, full of conditions, almost everything meets the needs of the Xiao family, such a fast son-in-law who rides the dragon, if it is not a coincidence, where to find it?"
Li Wan was surprised, but then found that what Shi Haoguang said was not unreasonable.
Going around and around, looking left and right, sure enough, only you are the most suitable.
Now he finally understands why such a beautiful lady as the eldest lady has already reached the age of marriage, and she has not yet settled, this kind of person who has a great family business and the rise and fall of thousands of clansmen is not in charge of marriage matters.
Li Wan said solemnly: "Then according to your meaning, the elders and the lady of the owner belong to me and plan to recruit me as the husband of the eldest lady?"
Shi Haoguang was also solemn: "If I guessed correctly, the owner's wife came to Tongshan this time to see you on purpose, and you will understand the next riddle." But I'm here to remind you. ”
Li Wan said: "Shi Daoyou, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”
Shi Haoguang said: "Whether you are intentional or unintentional to the eldest lady, don't treat it as a private matter of your children, you must treat it as a public matter, otherwise, it will be easy to hurt others and yourself, and you can't regret it!"
Li Wan heard it and thought for a moment.
