Seeing that Chu Huan's expression was not good, Chen Dong hurriedly said, "Young master Chu, I'm just hearing these things, so don't take it to heart."

Chu Huan smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, for letting me know, otherwise I would not know anything about it." But she still remembered Su Niang in her heart. Knowing that it was her first time on the street, she was really worried that something else might happen, so she got up and He said with a smile: "Chen Dong's family, this time I know the door, next time if you have free time, come and drink tea again!"

Chen Dong hurriedly said: "Master Chu is leaving now? Is it possible, I sent someone to order a table of wine, and I can't leave at noon today!"

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Master Chen's kindness, I accept it with all my heart. Now that I have come to Fucheng, I will naturally have the opportunity to get drunk together." He also said: "When I came out today, I just wanted to buy some cotton-padded clothes for my family. I'm still at home now, so I have to go back!"

"Then I'll send someone to pick up Lingtang and have lunch together." Chen Dong said with a smile, "I'm going to pay my respects to the old lady."

Chu Huan shook his head and said: "My mother is not feeling well, it really won't work today, another day!"

Seeing that Chu Huan had made up his mind, Chen Dong didn't want to stay longer, so he said, "Then Mr. Chu, wait for a while, you must wait!" He hurried out, called Wang Mazi, and ordered Wang Mazi to choose a few sets of cotton Warm and good-looking padded jackets are of high quality. Although his cloth shop mainly deals in silk and satin cloth, in winter, it will naturally sell some made padded jackets.

Wang Mazi found several sets of suitable cotton-padded jackets, and packed two big bags. Chen Dong carried the two big bags and was about to leave. Suddenly, he thought of something, put the cotton-padded jackets on the ground, ran to his own room, and opened a wooden box. , took out a small copper box from inside, and then went out, let Wang Mazi carry the package to the back room.

Seeing that Chen Dong came over with a lot of things, Chu Huan immediately understood what was going on, waved his hands seriously and said, "Dong Chen, you are too polite, Chu Huan will never accept it!"

However, Chen Dong put the package on the table, stuffed the copper box in his hand, and said, "Young Master Chu, I know more about the cloth industry than you. Here are some sets of cotton jackets. You can take them home and give them to your family." Put it on, I promise to wear it comfortably and warmly. There is a gift in this copper box, which was also given to me by someone before. I haven’t looked at it carefully, it seems to be pearls, not worth a few silver, you take it for appreciation Learn!"

Chu Huan walked away, but Chen Dong grabbed him and said solemnly, "Young Master Chu, are you making Chen restless all day and night?"

Chu Huan frowned, and sighed: "Chen Dong's family, the so-called friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and Chu Huan is ashamed of you for doing this!"

"Although I'm just a businessman, I know how to repay my kindness, and Mr. Chu's help was not a small favor, it saved my life. Could it be that my life is not worth even this little thing?" Chen Dong said with a serious face. Serenely, he forced the copper box into Chu Huan's arms, and said in a deep voice, "If Mr. Chu refuses to accept it, then he will look down on Chen at all, and despise Chen for his brass stink!"

Chu Huan couldn't laugh or cry, feeling very helpless, Chen Dong laughed again: "Maybe there will be some work for you in the future, just accept this meager thing, is it a little face for me?"

Chu Huan saw that Chen Dong was quite affectionate, thought for a while, and said helplessly, "If that's the case, Chu Huan is ashamed to accept it!" , and told Chen Dong the location of his house. Seeing that he accepted it, Chen Dong sent Chu Huan out with a big smile on his face.

As soon as she left the gate of the cloth village, she saw Su Niang standing not far away, leaning against a wall, as if she was thinking about something.

Chu Huan said goodbye to Chen Dong, and then walked over lightly. Su Niang seemed to be full of thoughts and looked strange, but she didn't see Chu Huan coming, until Chu Huan yelled, Su Niang was startled, seeing Chu Huan said angrily, "What are you yelling for? It's scary." Seeing Chu Huan looking at him with a smile on his face, Su Niangdao didn't feel any weirdness on weekdays. Seeing Chu Huan's gentle smile now, But she felt panicked, her face turned red, and she turned her head and said, "Go, go home!"

Seeing that she was a little weird, Chu Huan thought it was because of the previous incident that she was sulking, followed her, and said softly, "Sister, that guy has been kicked out of the cloth shop, so you don't have to be angry anymore."

Su Niang didn't look back, and walked straight forward with her waist twisted, but said calmly: "Who is angry with him, he doesn't have time to spare...!" Chu Huan followed her, and only then did he find Su Niang Walking is actually very beautiful.

Most country girls walk with big strides, but when Su Niang walks, although her steps are not small, her waist twists like catkins in the wind, driving her hips to swing from side to side, like flowers in the wind She is swaying like a child, and her hips are like waves. In a very modern saying, it is very sexy when she walks.

Chu Huan hurriedly withdrew his gaze, and this time he didn't distance himself, and asked softly, "Why are you upset? By the way, didn't you go to see the clothes? Did you see anything?"

Su Niang suddenly stopped and said: "Oh, I forgot!" After she had talked with Lu Daochang just now, she kept thinking about the old Taoist's words, her heart was very complicated, and she kept walking to the other side of the street, if she didn't bump into someone , She didn't know how far she had walked, but after bumping into someone, she realized the distance was far away, and walked back in a daze, forgetting that she came out to buy clothes this time.

Chu Huan chuckled, picked up the package in his hand, and said, "It's okay, I'm ready!"

Seeing that the package was huge, Su Niang was a little overjoyed, and said, "I bought so much? I'm afraid I won't be able to wear it all!"

Chu Huan laughed, and said, "It's okay, if you can't finish wearing it, you can change it, as long as you like it."

Chu Huan's words were casual and unintentional, but in Su Niang's ears, the feeling was completely different. His heart beat, his face was hot, he lowered his head, and thought wildly: "Erlang cares about me so much, is it really because of that?" Is the old Taoist right? It's just how can this be...!" At this time, she was wandering away from her body, a little out of her mind.

It's not true that she developed feelings for Chu Huan so quickly, it's just that the old Taoist's words were like a big stone hitting her calm heart, causing waves. , she panicked in her heart, and she felt very at a loss, not knowing whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

Suddenly I heard Chu Huan say: "Sister Su, come and have a look!" Su Niang raised her head, and saw that Chu Huan had already walked to the front, and there was a middle-aged woman on the street who was setting up a stall to sell goods, but there were people all over the stall. It's something like a bronze mirror comb.

Chu Huan put down a package, reached for a mahogany comb from the stall, and asked Su Niang with a smile, "Do you like it?"

When Chu Huan saw this small stall, he remembered Su Niang's very old comb in Liujia Village. Seeing that the mahogany comb looked good, he decided to buy it for Su Niang.

He had no distracting thoughts, he only thought of being good to Su Niang and repaying her for her contributions to the Chu family over the years.

Su Niang walked over, and the woman laughed and said: "This little brother is really considerate, he loves his wife so much...!" Xiang Su Niang smiled and said: "Big sister, you are really lucky, you married a good man! "

Su Niang's complexion changed suddenly, she was very embarrassed, she didn't say much, and left without saying anything.

The woman was a little strange and very embarrassed. Seeing that the woman said something wrong, Chu Huan knew that she had misunderstood, so she immediately bought a mahogany comb and chased after her with the package.

He also felt a little embarrassed at this time, so he didn't want to say anything more. Su Niang walked in front, and he followed behind. The two of them returned to the street of their house without saying a word.

After walking for a while, Su Niang suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned her head and said, "Why is there someone there?" With a puzzled face on his face, Chu Huan hurried forward and looked ahead, only to see a person who looked like Standing there like a stone statue.

The man wore a leather skirt around his waist, an iron helmet, long boots, and a knife. He was quite tall.

Chu Huan frowned. The person in front of the door obviously sensed that someone was coming back. He turned around and saw Chu Huan and Su Niang, and said loudly, "Are you Chu Huan?"

Chu Huan regained his composure, turned around and handed the two parcels to Su Niang. The two parcels were not very heavy, and Su Niang was born in a rural area, so she naturally had some strength compared to a wealthy daughter, so she reached out to catch them.

In front of outsiders, Chu Huan is naturally the head of the Chu family, and her sister-in-law also has to obey Chu Huan's orders.

Chu Huan stepped forward and cupped his hands, secretly on guard, but asked with a smile on his face, "This is Chu Huan, your Excellency?"

The man looked at Chu Huan and said with a smile, "Sure enough, it's a young hero. I'm here to post a post under the order of the guard!"

"Brother Wei?" Chu Huan was taken aback, then smiled and said, "How is Brother Wei now? How did he know that I came to Fucheng?"

The man laughed and said, "You really underestimate Wei Tongzhi. Mr. Tongzhi knows that once you come to Fucheng, you will go to Su Mansion first, so you have been sending people to wait. Last night, someone reported that you have arrived. Tongzhi Your Excellency originally wanted to come and visit in person, but he had other military affairs, so he sent me to post a post, asking you to go to the Shunfeng Hall at noon tomorrow, and Lord Commander will set up a banquet there and wait for you!"

Chu Huan took the post, saw that the post was very dignified and formal, and said with a smile, "Thank you, big brother!"

"I'm a general of the imperial guards, serving under the command of Wei Tongzhi, large Pan Fu!" The man said with a smile on his face, "I've been serving under Lord Tongzhi for many years, but it's rare to see him so solemn The next post, it seems that Master Zhu attaches great importance to Brother Chu, if you get promoted in the future, don't forget to take care of Pan Fu!"

On the contrary, he seemed very enthusiastic, and he had already begun to call him a brother.

"Brother Pan is joking!" Chu Huan said neither humble nor overbearing, "It's cold outside, why don't you go inside and have a cup of tea?"

Pan Fu waved his hands and said: "No, no, no. There are other matters, so I will leave first, but brother Chu will not delay at Shunfeng Hall tomorrow!" He clasped his hands and said, "Farewell!" Without further words, he just left.

After he left, Chu Huan took the package from Su Niang, who had already asked, "Erlang, will someone treat you to dinner tomorrow?"

Chu Huan nodded.

Su Niang said: "He said he was the master of control. What is the master of control? Is he an official?" Then she said: "This man said he was a general. What is a general? His clothes seem to be better than those in the county government. Capturing the head is even more impressive!"
