Chapter 60
No, the scholar fell into the water and drowned when he went out to enjoy the scenery in spring.The old lady of Xiucai's family didn't know whether she felt sorry for her son too much, or she listened to someone's instigation, and insisted that Yuexian's frivolous name could not suppress her luck, which made her son suffer.
The so-called good things do not go out, bad things spread thousands of miles.The idlers who watched the excitement were never afraid of big troubles, and in the end Yuexian's reputation was completely ruined.Not to mention that no one came to propose marriage, even if Chen Jiaxiang fell in love with a young man and asked people to find out about it, they would all be rejected.
The old couple never worried about their son, but they couldn't sleep because of the girl's poor food.
Now, shopkeeper Chen suddenly said that he had fallen in love with a young man and wanted to marry off his daughter.Mrs. Zheng is both happy and anxious. She is happy that her daughter has something to look forward to, but she is also worried that people will listen to the rumors and treat her poorly.
Shopkeeper Chen also feels distressed and guilty when he sees his old wife like this. He was optimistic about the marriage of his daughter at the beginning. Unexpectedly, something went wrong in the end, causing his wife and daughter to be depressed for many years. This time, he can't say anything. Something went wrong again.
However, thinking about the behavior of the young and old in the Lu family, and the character of the boss Lu, he gained a little more confidence.
"The young man I'm looking at is not from the city, but the boss of the Lu family."
"The boss of the Lu family?" Mrs. Zheng tried hard to think about it, but her expression changed.
"No! I don't agree! Isn't the Lu family in Laoxiong Ridge? It's a famous poor mountain valley. If Yuexian marries there, wouldn't it be a man who wants to serve hunting all day long?"
At that time, Zheng's eyes were red, and she wiped her tears, "My poor girl, why is her life so hard? The short-lived ghost harmed her once before, and now she is going to be reduced to be the wife of Orion?"
"Okay, okay, listen to me." Shopkeeper Chen didn't dare to drink tea anymore, and hurriedly coaxed his old wife.
"You don't go out on weekdays. I'm afraid you don't know that Laoxiongling is not what it used to be. You know about our vegetable business, right? The Lu family is the one who planted vegetables. Now Laoxiongling It's a new atmosphere!"
"The green vegetables belong to the Lu family?"
Previously, in order to keep it secret, shopkeeper Chen didn't even disclose the origin of the vegetables at home.Later, when outsiders knew about it, they only said a few words occasionally, so Mrs. Zheng was still a little dazed when she heard it.
Shopkeeper Chen had no choice but to say it from beginning to end.Finally persuaded, "Nowadays everyone knows that Lao Xiongling turned the youngest daughter of the Lu family into a cornucopia, and they all got their brains on the tip of their heads. Let me tell you, if you don't mention the marriage as soon as possible, others will think about it." , Our Yuexian may not be able to get on the wheel yet."
"Go, I don't believe it." Mrs. Zheng sneered and asked in a disdainful manner, "If it's like what you said, the Lu family is a scholarly family. But the girl from the Lu family is so powerful, she will marry Yuexian in the future." Didn't he have to be bullied by his sister-in-law in the past? Besides, Boss Lu is the eldest son, and in the future he will take care of the elderly and take care of so many younger siblings, so the burden may be too heavy."
Shopkeeper Chen was amused, shook the old wife's hand, and joked, "Just now I said I disagree, now I'm starting to worry about how my daughter will live after she gets married?"
"Oh, you are old and not ashamed!" Zheng blushed, afraid that the servant girl would see it, she quickly pulled her hand out, and finally urged, "You should hurry up and say it."
"Okay, okay." Shopkeeper Chen coughed dryly, drank two sips of tea, and satiated his old wife's appetite, and then said, "Why don't I think about what you said. Miss Lu, I just watched it coldly." It's been longer than Boss Lu. This girl has great abilities, and the future prosperity and wealth of the Lu family may be fulfilled by her.
It is said that capable people are rebellious, but Miss Lu is different, she is kind, considerate, and never hesitates when it is time to make a decision.The most important thing is that she treats her family very well, peas that cost two taels of silver a catty, she said she made buns for her family, so she just picked them off and ate them.He loves money but is not greedy for money. He is a smart and thorough person.
I see that if our daughter gets married, she will learn more from my sister-in-law.Boss Lu is not smart, but he is simple and honest, and has a very good heart.The most important thing is to be in good health and strong.Not afraid to be like the previous one..."
Mrs. Zheng listened carefully, but she was also a little tempted.
"Is the life of the Lu family going well?"
"Of course it's okay. You don't know. Before, Miss Lu had someone sew some fur rabbits, which were sold to Beijing with the help of my brother Xin. The total cost was only 20 taels, but she actually received 500 taels back."
"What?" Zheng grinned in surprise, "This... this is really just like the rumors, she is a veritable virgin girl who attracts fortune."
"Isn't that right? Tomorrow, I'll ask Boss Lu to deliver food at home. You can take a look at that time. If there is nothing wrong, let's send a letter to the Lu family. See if our Yuexian has this blessing, marry into Lu let's go home."
"it is good."
The old couple had a clear discussion, but they didn't know that there was a girl with a maid who came to deliver tea outside the window...
There are 360 lines in the world, and each line has a champion, and each line has its own hard work.
Outsiders only saw that the Lu family made money, but they didn't know that they also had to work hard.
As soon as the sky was bright, Boss Lu brought Lu's second son, and the first day of junior high school to pick vegetables in the field. Purple eggplants and cucumbers were better.
But the peas are a bit troublesome. You have to search through the leaves of the peas to find the beans shyly hiding under the wicker trellis.
At this moment, the sun has not yet risen, and the dew is the heaviest, but only a few feet away, the three people's clothes are soaked.
Xiaomi stood outside the vegetable garden guarding the vegetable basket, and every time he wanted to go in to help, he was kicked out by the three of them.
Previously, the Lu family brothers didn't know what kind of disease their sister had, but Aunt Liu said something cryptic, and they finally knew that the girl was delicate, and she couldn't take care of her well in the past few days, but she was prone to suffering from illness for the rest of her life.So, they wished they could confess their sister, and asked Mrs. Jiang to cook, not to mention working in the fields.
Fortunately, the villagers who went to work at the foot of the ridge also came out soon. Seeing that the Lu family was going to produce vegetables, they divided five or six into the garden to help.
It wasn't very high when the sun jumped up to the top of Dongshan Mountain. Boss Lu finally drove the carriage out of the mountain pass and headed all the way to the city.
Chenjiabu Village had just opened the door, and the boy was yawning and swiping around with a feather duster.Seeing Boss Lu come to the door like this, he quickly greeted him with a smile, "Brother Lu, our shopkeeper told me that these vegetables are of great use, and I need you to drive them to the old house."
Although Boss Lu had never entered the house, he knew the location of the Chen family, so he thanked the boy and turned to the back alley.
It's a pity that the old man who opened the door said that shopkeeper Chen was not at home, and when Boss Lu didn't know what to do, Mrs. Zheng brought her maid to the door.
The old lady wore a pine-colored cardigan, a brown horse-face skirt, and her half-white hair was tied up in a bun, giving her a neat and neat appearance.
At this moment, he greeted, "This is the young master of the Lu family, isn't it? What a coincidence, my shopkeeper has to go out in a hurry, and I'm afraid it will take half an hour to come back. If you are not in a hurry, why don't you sit in the living room."
Boss Lu hurriedly bowed, wanting to leave, but afraid that the sun would rise and the vegetables would wilt.So he hesitated for a while and said, "Then don't bother, please ask Madam Chen to call two people to help me move the vegetable basket into the shade of the yard."
Zheng smiled and responded, but motioned for the beautiful maid next to her to come forward.
Boss Lu was a little surprised. Seeing the maid bending over to carry the vegetable basket, he hurriedly stopped her, "Put this girl down quickly, and I will carry it by myself."
"Thank you, Eldest Young Master, it's better to come here as a servant."
The maid insisted, maybe she was a little dissatisfied with the mistress's order, her expression was a little aggrieved, her eyebrows were downcast, which was even more pitiful.
Boss Lu acted as if he didn't see it, and said, "No, I'm afraid you'll break my food! You're a weak girl, so don't touch your hands."
The maid froze and almost didn't fall down, but Zheng Shi, who was a few steps away, was very satisfied.
He is not moved by the beauty, and he is not rude. He is straightforward but not cruel. He is a good young man.
Boss Lu didn't know that Mrs. Zheng was treating him as pork on the chopping board and was picking and choosing.With one hand, he moved all the vegetable baskets under the eaves in three or five moves, which made Mrs. Zheng nod her head even more.Such a good strength, but much better than the frail scholar.
Boss Zheng stood up after finishing his work, and out of the corner of his eyes, he saw a girl in blue clothes standing at the corner of the corridor. A big pearl trembling and shaking, suddenly touched a certain string in his heart...
He quickly lowered his head, and the blue color at the corner of his eyes also disappeared inadvertently.
"Oh, Fusheng, you came so early!"
Shopkeeper Chen came in from outside the courtyard at the right time, and called Boss Lu when they met.Shopkeeper Chen is old, so that's a good name.
Boss Lu hurriedly saluted, and said with a simple and honest smile, "Uncle Chen, I just arrived too."
"Okay, okay, I'm a little anxious about this today, and I knew it was right to entrust you." Shopkeeper Chen invited Boss Lu to go into the house, then turned around and told the old woman, "Let the kitchen prepare the meals. If Fusheng comes out early, I'm afraid Didn't eat it either."
"My sister brought some snacks..."
Boss Lu wanted to refuse, but Shopkeeper Chen ignored it.The two sat down and chatted a few words before the food was served.
It was not early or late at this moment, thanks to the cook of Chen's family, he was able to prepare four dishes so quickly, and a small clay pot of rice was served.
Seeing this, Boss Lu stopped being polite. He got up early and ate two steamed buns to fill his stomach. He was very hungry now.
He ate happily, so naturally he didn't see the smile hidden in the eyes of the old couple of the Chen family.
After eating and drinking enough, Boss Lu offered to leave, but shopkeeper Chen didn't hold him back, and sent him out with a smile, and gave him some advice. Seeing him turn out of the alley, he turned to his wife and asked, "How is this young man, isn't he?"
Mrs. Zheng glanced at the maids and servants in the yard, gave the old man a reproachful look, and signaled him to enter the room.
Finally, when there were only two people left, Mrs. Zheng said, "I let Chunxi test it just now. This young man is very good and has a strong body. Although he was very hungry when eating, he was not rude. It can be seen that he was taught since childhood. Very good."
