Chapter 4 is not only a threat, but also a warning!
  "Li Zheng!"

"You and your little sister have lived together under the same roof for more than a year, and it is normal for you to have sparks with each other."

"But now that you know my identity, I am the daughter of the Duke. You are just a businessman, the most despicable person. Do you think you are worthy of my sister?"

"If you are still holding on to the idea of ​​​​climbing a high branch, you are overestimating your own capabilities. If you want to pester my little sister again, you are seeking death!"

Qin Jiansheng's eyes shone with a cold light, and his tone was cold, especially the last sentence, which made his tone even more serious.

"Are you threatening me?"

Li Zheng frowned and his tone became unkind.

"It's not just a threat, it's a warning."

"I hope this is the last time we see each other. I don't want to see you in the future, and I advise you not to have any wishful thinking and run to Chang'an to find your little sister. Everything you do is in vain."

"Also, since our Qin family has given away these things, we will not take them back."

"As for what you do with things, that's your business!"

"I'm warning you one last time, don't force the Qin family to do things we don't want to do!"

"That's it, you can take care of yourself."

After finishing speaking, before Li Zheng could speak, Qin Jiansheng turned around, mounted his horse, and said to his subordinates:
  "Leave your things and go!"

Qin Haisheng glanced at Li Zheng coldly, snorted coldly, tugged on the reins, followed his elder brother, and turned to leave.

soon.

Under Li Zheng's unwilling eyes, the Qin family disappeared at the end of the street, leaving only a few carriages of gifts prepared by the Qin family, which were also gifts to buy out him and Qin Wan'er.

Li Zheng clenched his fists and looked at the direction where the Qin brothers disappeared, his eyes bursting with fire.

but!
  He could only watch the Qin family leave with great humiliation.

No matter how angry he is, what can he do?

He is just a small businessman in a small border town. Let alone a princely family like the Qin family, even in a small town like Changzhi, he is unable to compete with those big families.

"The Qin family is right. After all, I am just a merchant, the most despicable person."

Li Zheng clenched his fists, tears of humiliation welling in his eyes.

Humiliation, unwillingness, and anger made his heart bleed.

But what can he do?
  Qin Jiansheng's words just now were full of threats and warnings.

He was asked to stay away from Wan'er, but Wan'er was already his woman, how could he just ignore her!
  "Brother Zheng, are those people just now Wan'e's family? I can see that this is a wealthy family! You are so lucky!"

"Brother Zheng, are these the dowries from Wanye's mother's family? Such a dowry will last you several lifetimes!"

"Congratulations! Brother Zheng, you are married to a woman as beautiful as a flower and you have such a large dowry. Where did you get your blessing?"

"Brother Zheng, you must invite us to your wedding!"

"congratulations!"

"... "

After the Qin family left, the neighbors gathered around and started talking in various directions, including congratulations, envy, and jealousy...

but.

None of the neighbors noticed that Li Zheng's face looked extremely ugly.

"Thank you everyone, thank you everyone!"

"Sorry, the vinegar shop is closed today!"

Looking at the complicated eyes of the neighbors around him, Li Zheng forced a smile, then turned around and walked towards Chenjingfang, closing the door smoothly.

As for the carriages outside the house and the gifts from the Qin family above, Li Zheng didn't pay attention at all.

At this moment, he was so confused that he just wanted to be alone and calm down.

"Brother Zheng, you just left all your dowry outside and didn't move it in!"

"These dowries are valuable, be careful of losing them!"

At this time, a neighbor kindly came to the door and shouted a reminder inside.

But there was no reaction inside.

"It seems something happened to Brother Zheng." "Those people who were chatting with Brother Zheng just now were not out of gratitude, but to create trouble. It seems that these belongings are not dowry..."

"Come on, come on, everyone, come and help drive these carriages into the backyard."

Under the command of this enthusiastic neighbor, the neighbors who were still watching came forward one after another and drove the carriages into the backyard of Chenjiufang.

at this time.

Inside the vinegar shop.

Li Zheng sat in front of the meal table that had been prepared long ago. He had prepared it all morning. He also bought the famous local Qingyang roast duck and skinned mutton from Qingyang Building.

This table of dishes cost him nearly a month's income.

In order to entertain Wan'er's natal family, Li Zheng showed his utmost sincerity.

however.

All the things he did, people didn't even take a look at, and they didn't even want to come in through his door.

He was severely damaged in front of all the neighbors.

"No wonder Wan'er didn't feel happy at all when she found out that her family members came to her door. No wonder she repeatedly told herself to go find her. It turns out that all this happened because she is the daughter of the Duke of the country. She knows the identity of the two people. gap."

"Knowing that once she goes back, it will be almost impossible to come out or even see him."

"I'm so stupid!"

"The Duke of the country, after the founding hero, and the most despicable small businessman..."

"The gap between the two is too great. It is simply a foolish dream for us to marry Wan'er!"

"But... Wan'er is already his own woman..."

Li Zheng's expression was indignant, and he slammed his fist on the table, with strong unwillingness in his eyes:

"I was born a merchant and have a low status. But for my woman, I can't stay low all my life. I want to stand out. I want the Qin family to see how I, Li Zheng, can become a prince, prime minister, and become a master..."

Li Zheng sat alone in the room, thinking silently.

time flies.

The day and night passed quickly.

Li Zheng sat there quietly alone.

Bah!Bah!Bah!
  At this moment, a knock on the door interrupted Li Zheng's thoughts.

"Brother Zheng, are you in there?"

"Open the door quickly! I am your Grandpa Zhou."

"You silly boy, why did you lock yourself in the house alone? What do you want to do?"

A slightly older voice came from outside the door.

Outside the vinegar shop.

An old man wearing linen clothes and a wrinkled face was knocking on the door with a worried look on his face.

"Brother Zheng, I have heard what the villagers have said about you. Wanye is gone and you lock yourself in the house all day and night. This is not okay!"

"Now, Grandpa Zhou is back. If anything happens, we will discuss it together..."

Grandpa Zhou said while knocking on the door.

Crunch!

Suddenly, the door of the vinegar shop slowly opened.

What caught his eye was Li Zheng's slightly haggard face.

However, his expression seemed calm, not as tired as expected, and he even smiled when he saw the old man:

"Grandpa Zhou, you are back."

"Brother Zheng, are you okay?"

"I just came back and heard that something happened to your family. Wan'e was picked up by her family, and several cartloads of gifts were left behind. You also locked yourself in your house for a day and a night without eating or drinking."

"Tell Grandpa, what happened?"
