A piece of paper

Chapter 97 Live Yourself (3000 word chapter!)

Chen Jianfang was also shocked.

But this person has an advantage, he doesn't show his face in everything, to put it nicely, he doesn't show his emotions or anger.

In layman's terms, this person's facial features and emotions are different, and he has been separated for a long time.

Therefore, after Xian Jin saw Chen Jianfang raised his eyebrows, he reached out and patted Zhang Wenbo's back very naturally, "It should be said earlier that it is really rude of my Chen family to leave the two elders alone in the official post."

The attitude is very intimate.

Zhang Wenbo trembled all over, his back seemed to be scorched by iron.

Hearing Chen Jianfang's next words, Zhang Wenbo couldn't help but widen his eyes, and leaned on the bar excitedly, "Did you agree! Did you agree!"

These two are of the same generation, and they are so excited that they are honored.

Chen Jianfang raised his lips and smiled, "What did I promise?"

Bo'er laughed, scratching his head while laughing.

Xian Jin put down the ledger, reached out and patted Bo'er on the shoulder, "Go back quickly, Boss Shang of Chengdong Printing Workshop is a nice person, and there is also a son in the family who is a scholar, and he has a good relationship with the Chen family."

What do you mean?
Bo'er was stunned, his mind turned, and he didn't know where the road was going. "Don't panic! Although I am not a scholar now, I will always be a scholar! I know Boss Shang's son! Although he is taller, stronger and more angular than me, but he...he...he..."

He waited for a long time, Bo'er choked out a sentence: "But he is not as white as me!"

Xianjin: ...

Suddenly, I had the urge to invite Boss Shang's son out to have a look!

Tall, strong and angular!
Chen Jianfang was silent, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "We need a matchmaker to bridge the gap. If the Zhang family has relatives in Jing County, please invite her to be the matchmaker; if not, please ask Boss Shang's wife to be the matchmaker."

Zhang Wenbo knew what he meant, and hurriedly said, "There are some! My father and mother specially caught one from Huai'an Mansion, oh no, they brought a Juren wife to come with them!"

When the Great Wei got married, someone had to be a matchmaker, otherwise, the runner would be a concubine. Ordinary ordinary people mostly hired matchmakers for a fee. For big families like the Chen family and the Zhang family, the matchmaker generally had to invite married women of the same or higher status to propose marriage as a matchmaker, which was decent.

It was beyond Xian Jin's expectations that Zhang's family was able to catch a woman from a long distance to protect the matchmaker.

Xian Jin was very satisfied with the Zhang family's sincerity, and seeing that Chen Jianfang was still as calm as a mountain, he silently nodded in his heart - the star of hope is different!Can afford it, can afford it!

Chen Jianfang was as shocked as Xian Jin.

The Zhang family... indeed came here with full sincerity!

Except bring money!

Someone was tied up!
It's hard for anyone to be unhappy when my daughter is valued by others!

Chen Jianfang finally laughed, with a gentle tone, "Go back and have a good talk with your parents! Tell us about our family and Zuo Niang's situation! I will stay at home the day after tomorrow. If you want to send someone to tell you in advance, I will call my seventh uncle and Zuo Niang's parents over."

This is no different from a promise!

Chen Jianfang's speech has always been full of twists and turns, and it is not easy to be so straightforward.

Surprised and delighted, Zhang Wenbo trotted back to make arrangements in a daze.

Chen Jianfang looked at the back of the white and tender boy staggering out, couldn't help but chuckled, shaking his head while laughing, "Youth young Ai..."

It sounds like you're about to retire.

Xian Jin complained inwardly, and handed a cup of herbal tea, "...Two days ago, I prepared the ten pieces of Liuzhangxuan and the five-knife sprinkled gold peach blossom and coral paper to be sent to the prefect of Xiongfu, and I specially pressed Chen Ji's small chapter on the edge of Liuzhangxuan."

To give favors, you have to take your own share with you.

Chen Jianfang took a sip from the teacup, frowned slightly, reached out to pick up the copper teapot and poured hot water for Xianjin and his own teacup, "...no matter how hot it is, don't be greedy for cold."

Chen Jian said again, "I will send Liuzhangxuan and Shan Shanjian to Cui Heng as soon as possible."

Chen Jianfang knocked with his hand, "It depends on whether the Zhang family will come or not."

Xian Jin glanced at the warm tea in front of him, pursed his lips, and gently pushed the tea cup away.

……

The Zhang family is here, he is here, he is here, and he is here with the bank notes.

After Xian Jinjin finished his breakfast, he heard the porter report that four or five people from the Zhang family had come.

Xian Jin wanted to stay, but the shop on Shuixi Avenue was so close to the door, if he wanted to open as scheduled before September, he would have to frantically rush to meet the deadline these few days.

With deep reluctance and regret for not being able to see the excitement, Xian Jin threw himself into making money.

When it was dark, Xian Jin finished his overtime work and went back to the old house. Seeing the oil lamps in the four corners of the main hall, Zhang’s mother stood in the corridor with her hands down, her eyebrows lowered and she waited in obedience.

"what is wrong?"

Xian Jin didn't understand, so he glanced at the bright lights in the main hall and lowered his voice, "But the Zhang family proposes marriage..."

Don't tell me that Bo'er didn't mention getting married, right?
Mother Zhang quickly shook her head, "I've mentioned it, I'm here to propose a marriage! I invited a wife and a matchmaker, and the new son-in-law came here in person, and brought a lot of gifts, which can be regarded as a step away from Na Cai."

Why is that?

"It's the seventh uncle..."

Mama Zhang is a bit embarrassed
Xian Jin frowned.

How is this old thing not a thing anymore.

"Seventh Uncle heard from somewhere that the Zhang family is rich. He insisted on getting Zhang Jiayun's two stores in Huai'an Mansion to come out. He said that they wanted to put it under Zuo Niang's name, but in fact he wanted to drive Chen Ji to Huai'an Mansion..."

it's fucking..
The level of shamelessness is similar to Cui Heng's mother asking for a dowry increase!
Xian Jingang wanted to speak, but Chen Jianfang's voice, obviously suppressing his anger, came from inside.

"Seventh Uncle, if you think the husband's family we found for Zuo Niang is not good, we will go and return the savings box in person, and apologize to Zhang's family, as if we have never had this kind of marriage negotiation."

"You don't need to embarrass others with the request of these dirty ancestors' face."

Hearing Seventh Uncle's crutch stick, "I'm not satisfied at all! I'm not a scholar! The family is not a scholarly family either! The in-law's family I found for Zuo Niang is the county magistrate of our county! Our Chen family is doing business in Jing county because we have a good relationship with the county magistrate!"

Well, it had nothing to do with her working so hard.

It's all up to you to be Cui Heng's licking dog.

Xian Jin pouted.

"Look at who you are looking for now! The tea seller at home doesn't even have any fame."

How strange.

You can't deny that Zhang Wenbo's achievements in his teens are worthless just because he is a scholar in Jing County.

Xian Jin pouted again.

"This person, I recognize Erlang because of your face. But!" Seventh Uncle's voice gradually became agitated, "We lost face, we must make up for it! What's the matter with two shops? It's not for the expansion of our Chen Ji! It's not for my own selfish desire!"

Chen Jian made a fuss, "If the Zhang family agrees to give the shop, what will you do? Who will the Chen family send to be the supervisor?"

The seventh uncle was confident, "The shop Zuo Niang bought in exchange for her marriage naturally requires his father and his younger brother to be supervisors."

After thinking for a while, he added, "That girl He Xianjin will also go, and after the two shops are up and running, I will get her elsewhere."

Zhang's mother "tsk" outside the window, her eyes seemed to be eating people, and she cursed through gritted teeth, "Why doesn't he just die! He's thinking everywhere! He's not restless at all!"

Xian Jin held Mama Zhang's hand comfortingly.

In the main hall, after Chen Jianfang was silent for a while, he let out a chuckle, "Seventh Uncle planned this?"

There was a rustling sound, and it was Chen Jianfang who stood up.

"Since you have good ears and eyes and good eyesight, the younger generation will not interfere with Zuo Niang's marriage. You can do whatever you want."

"No!" Seventh Uncle immediately refused, and exchanged glances with his son.

Chen Jianfang cannot be let go!

According to the Zhang family today, they are willing to pay 2000 taels of silver to marry Zuo Niang—this means that the Chen family must spend at least 1000 taels of silver to marry their daughter so as not to lose their position!

It is rare for a rich man to spend so much money to marry a wife!

It is unheard of for a rich man who can spend so much money to marry Zuo Niang!

How could it be possible to let this golden tortoise son-in-law go!

The son-in-law of the golden tortoise came to their house, but he was the bastard of their family!
Furthermore, with this in and out, wouldn't 3000 taels fall into Zuo Niang's pocket! ?Isn't Zuo Niang's money the money of her father, mother, and grandfather?
It is absolutely impossible to let go of such a large sum of money easily!
On the other hand, Zhang's family hired a woman named Juren. If Chen Jianfang let it go, they would not be able to find a matching matchmaker by themselves. It was almost a daydream...

The seventh uncle is old and not old-fashioned, and within a short while he could think of at least a hundred reasons why Chen Jianfang couldn't leave the stall alone, and finally gave in, and sighed softly, "Erlang, you have also seen the face of people who are superior and inferior, I...we are calculating like this, but we are afraid that Zuo Niang will not be able to rely on him in the future."

Zuo Niang's father also chimed in, "Yes, yes, Erlang has to talk about this matter, we don't care what we say!"

After a while, Chen Jianfang's calm voice came, "...Since the two elders have entrusted me with Zuo Niang's marriage, I will go all out to finish this job well—one can make up his own mind about everything, and the more people make up his mind, the more chaotic the idea will be."

Zuo Niang's father said repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes! We are just making a suggestion, a suggestion!"

Followed by a series of dry and awkward laughs.

The voice inside gradually became quieter, after a while the seventh uncle and Zuo Niang's father came out, seeing Xian Jin standing at the door, the seventh uncle snorted coldly and walked out with a cane.

Xian Jin also gave a heavy "hum" in return.

Who is used to your stinky habit of biting people everywhere!

After waiting for others to leave, Xian Jin walked into the main hall, only to see Chen Jian frowning, squinting his eyes sideways, kneading the roots of the mountain with his hands.

Xian Jin sighed softly in his heart.

Master Chen Liu is vicious and vicious, with human life on his hands; Uncle Seven is timid and fearful, but his heart is higher than the sky...

The elders of the Chen family are really more exciting than the other.

Can't we ignore these dirty things?

Xian Jin thought so in his heart, and asked, "Can we just ignore these bad things and live a good life?"

There is only so much energy for a person, and a lot of it is spent on dealing with bad family affairs, so naturally less energy is devoted to one's own career.

Xian Jin just finds it annoying.

These blood-sucking relatives are really annoying.

Chen Jianfang gently put his hand down, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, and slowly shook his head.

He is the eldest son and grandson, and he was supported by the strength of the whole Chen family.

How could he do such things as crossing rivers and demolishing bridges, climbing trees and pulling ladders?
