Chapter 180: I tell the truth
Wen Huan came back from wandering around and inquired about the marriage of Yongqing County Prince.
Even He's appearance and temperament are roughly known.
Feeling more hopeful.
However, although we got along well that day, the timing was terrible.
No matter what, he will never arrange this before his wedding or for a period of time after his marriage...
After discussing with Mr. Yuan, the two of them agreed: calm down and don't be anxious.
Old Mrs. Wen is discussing Wen Yu’s dowry with her two sons. She plans to give more!
The Wen brothers are not obsessed with money now. They just nodded their heads no matter what their mother said.
However, Wen Qian waited until Wen Feng went out and then said, "Mother, there is no need to make this matter public. You can just do it secretly!"
"What? Are you afraid that Mr. Yuan will know?" Old Mrs. Wen suddenly lost her temper.
Wen Qian once made an oath: No matter what Wen said, he would not take advantage of her.
But now, many people know him through Qi Wutian. Everything he handled went smoothly! Seeing it, there is hope for promotion in advance.
Although he was happy, the feeling of thorns in his flesh also made him uncomfortable.
“Mother, my son just doesn’t want to get into trouble.”
"Who dares to be meddlesome? The family's property is mainly earned for my mother! Use it however you want. Discuss it with you two brothers. It's because your mother values you. Does it matter whether the Yuan family knows or not? Do I care how her money is used?"
Old Mrs. Wen looked sarcastic.
“Mother…” Wen Qian was particularly embarrassed.
“Look at her acting like this day by day! Maybe she even despises me in her heart!”
"Mother, how could it be?" Wen Qian was helpless...
"Huh! I haven't eaten her, drank her, or counted on her yet!" The old lady wanted to say more, but she looked at her son's face. Sighing: "Forget it! When you get older, you will be less annoying! Let's leave it like that!"
Wen Qian came out, stood outside the door and sighed. He and Yuan have similar personalities: they always think more and speak less. Once something is hidden and not communicated, it will be even harder to open up again.
On this day, Mrs. Wen finally kept Wen Yu at home: "What are you busy with every day?"
There was nothing to hide, so Wen Yu told the old lady about the shop.
Old Mrs. Wen was dumbfounded: Before she even entered the house, her mother-in-law started handing over the family property?
What do you say?
Tsk tsk tsk, this girl’s life is in jeopardy!
However, to open a store, it is not just a matter of having a shop. How much money does it cost to clean up, hire people, spread goods, and manage things?
After asking for a long time, Wen said nothing and still wanted to go out.
The old lady thought for a long time and gave Wen Yu five thousand taels of silver.
Wen Yu sneered after receiving it...it's valuable, but it's different!
…
Not long after the first lunar month, the Zhang family came to Beijing.
Only Magistrate Zhang did not come, but everyone else came.
The uncle of the Zhang family attaches great importance to marrying off his daughter, and the dowry for his daughter is also arranged neatly and meticulously.
The Zhang family does not have a house in the capital, so they have long appointed a housekeeper to rent a house in the capital. The Zhang brothers have many brothers and friends in the capital. Everyone helps, and the yard is pretty cool.
The old lady of the Wen family still feels a little guilty towards the Zhang family. Wen Qian wants to maintain the relationship more.
So, at the critical moment, the Wen family also came to show their sincerity and sent people to help early in the morning.
Now, the house is clean and tidy inside and outside, and everything used is new. Even the firewood, rice, oil and salt for the kitchen are all ready.
Wen Feng took his eldest son with him and went to the city gate to pick him up.
Mrs. Zhang heard about it as soon as she entered the house, and was quite moved: The Wen family is growing rapidly and prospering, but they still don’t forget their old friends and are so considerate in every aspect. They are really a decent family...
I guess Wen Yu was so angry that he vomited blood when he heard this? !
After two days of good rest, the head of the Wen family came to visit with his family.
Zhang Jiangqing has lost a lot of weight, and her round face has grown longer.
Zhang Moqing and Zhang Jinqing were very affectionate when they saw Wen Yu and pulled her to talk non-stop. Wen Jiao and others were also happy to see acquaintances.
There is only Wen Huan, who is airy, neither close nor distant, and has a good style.
It was busy for a long time before Wen Yu got a chance to talk to Zhang Jiangqing alone.
“Brother Jiang Qing, are you okay?” Wen Yu looked at Zhang Jiangqing. He was running all the way. He even had a green beard. How could he be so old?
Feeling funny and sad at the same time.
“I’m fine. Sister Ayu, you’ve lost weight.”
“I was just about to say that you have lost weight too! You have become an adult all of a sudden!”
Zhang Jiangqing's smile is not as innocent and sunny as before, but still warm: "Sister Ayu, are you still used to being in the capital?"
“Everything is fine. I have been running a shop recently and have been busy all day long, so I have lost a lot of weight.”
"But I'm in good spirits!" "Yes. Brother Jiang Qing...there's something I want to tell you."
“Say it!”
"That's it: I found an opportunity for you. Look..." Wen Yu took out something and handed it to him.
Zhang Jiangqing took it and took a look. He was surprised and frowned slightly.
"Where are you going...the Qi family?"
"I got it through Young Master Qi Wu, but I don't know much about the details. Brother Jiang Qing, don't rush to agree or refuse. I haven't said anything to anyone about this matter. I just want you to think for yourself. Understand and then make a decision.”
“You do this to mean…”
“Brother Jiang Qing, let me tell the truth: Although this is an opportunity I found for you, it is out of my selfishness.”
Zhang Jiangqing was a little surprised again and looked at Wen Yu.
"I have a lot to do, and most of my wishes have not been completed yet. I need someone who can tell me my heart without any scruples. You are this person. But this is unfair to you."
"Ah Yu, this position!" Zhang Jiangqing shook the paper, "Even if you do it out of your own interests, for everyone, you have paid a very good condition first. I don't know how many people will look forward to it! "
"But you are not someone else! You are my good brother and good friend. Although this opportunity is good, if it is not what you want in your heart, I will not advise you to stay."
Zhang Jiangqing was at a loss and couldn't make a decision for the moment.
"Go back and think about it. If you have any questions, you can ask me. We can also discuss it..."
"Okay. It's just... Ah Yu, when you talk about having unfinished things on your mind, there is always a sense of heaviness. Can you tell me where it comes from?"
“Maybe I will say it in the future. But right now, I don’t know what to say.”
"If you have something to say to others, I'm afraid you are the best listener."
“I know, always know.”
…
The adults were chatting happily, and a few girls slipped out.
Wen Huan saw Zhang Jiangqing talking to Wen Yu at a glance, and Zhang Jiangqing also put a piece of paper away.
“Yo, what are they two talking about?”
Wen Jiao looked at it and sneered: "What does it have to do with you? Put away your little thoughts!"
The warmth is so heartwarming, "What do I have on my mind?"
Wen Jiao looked her up and down, then turned away.
Gentle and cheerful: Just wait for me!
Zhang Jinqing ran over, pulled Wen Yu and asked Yan Zhu.
"Zhuzhu has been very busy recently. When you take a break, I will take you to see her! Moqing, just in time, I have something to tell you."
Zhang Jinqing refused, "Sister Yu, you also have to talk to me alone!"
“Okay! Let me tell you alone, I have a lot of good things for you!”
Wen Yu first greeted Zhang Moqing politely, and then said: "...I met the sister-in-law of the Qi family once at the Cui family. She was confused. I haven't met the old lady of the Qi family yet. I heard that she has a very good reputation. Old lady, but Mrs. Qi seems to have a problem with her.
Our marriage was decided by my wife herself. At home, I also received some criticism. "
Zhang Moqing listened very carefully.
"Wulang said that the fourth brother is very understanding. He can stand up in front of his aunt. So, you don't have to worry about anything."
Zhang Moqing nodded: "My family said that Silang often comes to clean up the yard. He has also been here in the past two days and has given a lot of things. My father likes him very much and says that he is safe in his work."
“Well, I have a lot of things on my hands right now and I’m very busy.”
“If there’s anything I can do to help, you’re welcome.”
“When you settle down, there will be a lot of things that I need your help with!”
After saying a few words briefly, Mrs. Wen was very excited when she returned to the house and was telling Mrs. Zhang that she was going to be the concubine.
Mrs. Zhang was very happy after hearing this, "I have met Jiang Niangniang, but not many times. Later when we arrived in Jiangzhou, she had already moved away with her grandfather and father."
Zhang Moqing told Wen Yu: "At that time, I was at Songshan College with my father, so I didn't have a deep impression."
Zhang Jiangqing said happily, "I remember some!"
“When everything settles down, find a chance to see her!”
But Mrs. Wen said, "Ayu, have you heard that the fifth brother of the Song family is now Uncle Zhongqin?"
“What uncle? I don’t know?!” Wen Yu was surprised.
Old Mrs. Wen laughed: "This and this Lao Wu, he is so good! All of a sudden, he has a title!"
Mrs. Zhang also laughed: "It's indeed good! Doing his business with a reputation! There are many benefits!"
Everyone laughed...
