The Road to Doting Wife

Chapter 16 pick out
After entering the room, Zhao Chen looked at the furnishings in the room with his hands behind his back.

Meng Zhongjing was not good at words, so he winked at Lin Chongjiu.

Lin Chongjiu smiled and shouted: "Brother Zhao, sit on the kang." He was at Meng's house just like he was at his own.

Zhao Chen turned around and walked over.

Meng Zhongjing thought that every time he went to the Liu family of the Lin family, he would serve him tea, and then he looked at the smiling man in Chinese clothes, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhao, talk to Xiaojiu first, and I will prepare tea." , The family prepared tea early, although they are all cheap things, it is better than nothing.

"Brother Meng." Zhao Chen stopped him with a smile, then bowed his head to Lin Chongjiu and said, "Xiao Jiu, Chen Pingxin heard a story about fighting a tiger yesterday, you go to him and ask him to tell you."

"Really?" Lin Chongjiu asked excitedly, before Zhao Chen could reply, he opened the curtain and ran out: "Brother Chen, tell me quickly!"

The door curtain fell, blocking the big and small people in the kitchen.

Meng Zhongjing looked at Zhao Chen suspiciously, vaguely feeling that the other party had something to say.

Zhao Chen stood up under his gaze, walked to the cabinet, reached out to touch it, suddenly turned his head, and asked Meng Zhongjing with a smile: "When will Brother Meng marry Miss Lin?"

Zhao Chen was sitting at the door before, and Meng Zhongjing was standing in front of the cabinet on the east side, now that Zhao Chen came over, there were only a few steps between them.After asking, Zhao Chen continued to look at the cabinet, his movements were casual and natural, and there was a kind of innate nobility, as if what he was looking at was not a farm cabinet, but a valuable furnishing.

Meng Zhongjing couldn't figure out why such a man treated him and even the Lin family so courteously?
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, he politely replied: "On the sixth day of September, if Mr. Zhao doesn't dislike it, why don't you come to have a drink at the bar when you have time?"

Wedding wine?

Zhao Chen smiled without saying a word, his eyes fell on the bronze mirror in front of him, and after a while he replied in a low voice: "Brother Meng, Mr. Zhao is in business, has been to the county capital, the capital city, and traveled to many places from north to south. , I have seen a lot of beauties, but in terms of beauty, no one can compare to Aju. Brother Meng and Aju decided to get married early, and it is really beautiful and blessed, which makes Zhao envious."

In the almost mumbling words, there is undisguised regret and envy.

Meng Zhongjing looked at him in astonishment.The man turned his face to him, his appearance was uncommon, his demeanor was cold, even though he had a smile on his lips.

But, isn't it inappropriate to talk about the appearance of your fiancée in front of you?Also, he actually called Ah Ju by his nickname?

Meng Zhongjing was shocked and didn't know what to say.

Zhao Chen didn't seem to be aware of his slip of the tongue, and then said again: "However, marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person will easily cause trouble. It's like doing business. If the goods are too good, there will be more people robbing them. Sometimes I clearly order them first. After buying the goods, just because the opponent offered better conditions, the owner of the goods betrayed his promise and sold them to others. Brother Meng, if I were you, I would rather marry someone who is slightly less beautiful than a wife who is too beautiful to be admired by others. He robbed the marriage halfway."

He turned around slowly, facing Meng Zhongjing, with a slight smile on his face, but there was a deep meaning in his pair of phoenix eyes, and he was sure to win.

He is a man who can understand what he means.

Meng Zhongjing clenched his fists, stared at the rich young man across from him and asked coldly, "What exactly is Mr. Zhao trying to say?"

Just as Zhao Chen was about to speak, Lin Chongjiu came back after listening to the story, and smiled at Meng Zhongjing: "It's nothing, it's just that Zhao and Brother Meng have similar temperaments, so I couldn't help but say a few words from the bottom of my heart." Beside him, he lowered his head and asked him: "Xiao Jiu, do you still remember what congenial temperament means?"

"I know, liking the same thing is called congenial temperament. For example, Brother Zhao and I both like to practice kung fu." Lin Chongjiu replied with his head raised.

Zhao Chen patted him on the shoulder rewardingly, and then said to the two seriously: "Brother Meng, Xiaojiu, I have to leave because of my aunt's kindness, and now I have to leave after such a long delay. Xiaojiu After you go back, make an apology for me and your mother, and I will come to the door to make amends in person someday, and leave."

Lin Chongjiu was stunned, Zhao Chen had already walked out.

"Brother Zhao, you, it's raining so hard, may I get you an umbrella?" Lin Chongjiu hurriedly chased him out.

"No need, Xiao Jiu practice martial arts well, and I'll teach you next month!" Zhao Chen went out without looking back.

It was already raining heavily outside, and the man's figure was quickly covered by the rain, making him indistinct.Lin Chongjiu wanted to catch up, but was held down by Meng Zhongjing's shoulder.There was a rush of horseshoes at the door, and Lin Chongjiu was annoyed and worried: "It's raining so heavily, why is there such a rush that we have to leave? After a while, mother will be angry when she finds out that I didn't keep Big Brother Zhao!"

"Xiao Jiu likes him very much?" Standing behind him, Meng Zhongjing asked with a complicated expression.

Lin Chongjiu looked eagerly at the door: "I like it, Brother Zhao is so powerful, I admire him the most."

Meng Zhongjing moved his mouth, but he didn't open his mouth. When he raised his eyes, there was the sound of rain in the yard.

He thought of Mr. Zhao's visit to Lin's house that day, and Lin Xian and his wife's enthusiasm for him.In terms of appearance, identity and talent, he was nothing compared to Mr. Zhao. If he hadn't known Ah Ju early and made an appointment in advance, Lin Xian and his wife would definitely not have given the eldest daughter to him, right?

Now, that person is destined to rob Ah Ju from him, will Lin Xian and his wife regret their marriage?

What about her?Will she fall in love with Mr. Zhao?
Meng Zhongjing's heart was in a mess.

There was no sound behind him for a long time, Lin Chongjiu turned around, saw his face was livid, and couldn't help asking: "What's wrong, Brother Meng?"

Meng Zhongjing looked down at Lin Chongjiu, but what could he say to a child?Lin Chongjiu was saved by that man and even learned martial arts from him, so he regarded him as the person he admired the most.Not to mention Lin Chongjiu, even Lin Xian and his wife, they wouldn't believe what Mr. Zhao said, right?Isn't he the same? If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he would never have guessed that the polite and courteous person would hide such thoughts.

He can only tell her to let her guard against him.

But will she believe it?If she knows, will she have other thoughts, maybe, she already knows?
Meng Zhongjing suddenly wanted to see Ah Ju very much.

"Xiao Jiu, Mr. Zhao is gone. I'll take you home and tell your mother by the way." Meng Zhongjing opened the umbrella and stood outside the door first, then pulled Lin Chongjiu to his side, and put the umbrella together. walk on his shoulder.

Lin Chongjiu obediently followed her brother-in-law-to-be.The wind blew the rain onto him. He looked up and found that most of the umbrellas were on his side.Brother Meng has always been very kind to him, but now he is only worried about Brother Zhao who just rode away on horseback. Isn't he afraid of being watered by such a heavy rain?Don't get into trouble on the road.

The two had their own thoughts and unknowingly went to the Lin family.

Lin Chongjiu shouted loudly: "Mother, brother Zhao is gone!"

Mrs. Liu was choosing vegetables in the kitchen. He couldn't believe the voice, put down the vegetables and ran to the door in a hurry, and saw Meng Zhongjing holding an umbrella to send his son back.The rain was too heavy, so she stood under the eaves and asked them: "Mr. Zhao is gone? How did you go well?"

Meng Zhongjing didn't answer her right away, he held up his umbrella, and when the door of the west wing was pushed open, he looked over to see the girl who appeared in a hurry at the door.Is it because Mr. Zhao left unexpectedly that she came out so quickly?The shock on her face suddenly turned into panic after seeing him, she even fled back after being stunned for a moment, was she afraid of being discovered by him?

As if he accidentally bit his guts, Meng Zhongjing was full of bitterness.

Mrs. Liu urged him, Meng Zhongjing finally came back to his senses, and repeated what the man said when he left, "I wanted to keep him, but he left too fast."

Most of his face was covered by an umbrella, and Liu Shi didn't take a closer look. He looked at the door and said, "Master Zhao, why is he so careless about his body? Persuading him to come here to avoid the rain, and to reduce the rain, really..."

Although it is blame, it is still out of concern after all.

Meng Zhongjing's mother died young, and when he was a child, he came to play at Lin's house. Liu Shi often used this tone to talk about him, and after he got engaged to Ah Ju, he treated him like a son. At this time, Liu Shi used the same tone to care about someone who wanted to be with him Meng Zhongjing felt very uncomfortable about the person who robbed his fiancée.

"Auntie, you are busy. I will send Xiaojiu back to the house, and I will be back soon." He pushed Lin Chongjiu's shoulders and walked forward.

They were all familiar people who couldn't be more familiar, and Liu Shi didn't show any courtesy to him, and continued to choose dishes.

In just a dozen or so steps, Meng Zhongjing's heart turned a thousand times, and finally he couldn't help telling Lin Chongjiu in a low voice: "Xiao Jiu, elder brother has something to say to your eldest sister. I'll wait for her at the back door. You go and talk to her." Say."

Lin Chongjiu often does this, laughing at him, how could Meng Zhongjing laugh now, patted his head, turned and left.

Lin Chongjiu took an umbrella by himself and went to the wing room to find the elder sister.

Lin Zhu was reading on the kang inside, while Ah Ju was sitting outside, distracted.The door was suddenly pushed open, she was startled, but when she looked up, she saw her brother winking at her from the door.She froze for a moment, and leaned closer with her heart in her heart. Sure enough, it was Meng Zhongjing who wanted to see her.

Ah Ju didn't dare to go see him, but she had to go, she had to know what the man said to Meng Zhongjing.

She took the umbrella, looked at the opposite kitchen, and pretended to be calm and went to the backyard.

Lin Chongjiu closed the back door of the main room, then sat at the table and pretended to read a book, guarding for them as before, preventing others from going to the back.

There was a sound of closing the door behind him, Ah Ju looked at the courtyard door in front, gritted his teeth, and walked over nervously.

The door opened, and Meng Zhongjing was already waiting for her there.

The heavy rain was pouring, and there should be no one outside, but Meng Zhongjing still carefully put away the umbrella, and stood with his back against the door wall, soaked all over.

The umbrella was lowered, and Ah Ju just caught a glimpse of the man's chest, so she didn't dare to look up again, covered her mouth and cried.

The humiliation when I was forced, the fear these days, when I saw the man I liked, all turned into tears and rolled down.At this moment, she didn't have the heart to think about how to hide it, she just felt wronged, and she just wanted to be protected and comforted by her man.

Holding an umbrella, she stood between the half-open door and the wall, and did not move for a long time.Meng Zhongjing couldn't wait any longer, he lowered his head to look at the person under the umbrella, but saw her crying bitterly.Meng Zhongjing panicked at once, lost the umbrella in his hand, and hurriedly got under her umbrella, not daring to touch her, just grabbed the umbrella to support her, and asked her distressedly: "Aju, why are you crying? Why are you crying?"

If you want to touch it but dare not touch it, your heart will fluctuate.
